On the fifth floor, Rolling Stone Records only rented an office of about 200 square meters, and the entire sixth floor was Shen Chong's territory - he invested in building eight world-class recording studios here, entrusted them to a professional asset management company, and opened them to all musicians at a very affordable price, as long as the daily operation remained breakeven, and as for the money to buy equipment, it should be used as charity for cultural causes......

People who are engaged in artistic creation are more casual and have irregular working hours, Shen Chong is a good person to the end, and let the recording studio be open for hours, which alone has bought the hearts of almost all musicians in Taipei.

The front desk on the sixth floor was much more professional than Huang Yunling's little girl, and as soon as Shen Chong came up, she stood up and asked politely, "Sir, good evening." ”

"Hello." After the completion of this place, Shen Chong came up for the first time, he looked left and right, and asked, "I'm looking for Miss Zhang Aijia, which recording studio is she in?" ”

"Is it Mr. Shen?" After receiving an affirmative answer, the front desk lady pointed to the corridor on the left hand side and said, "Sister Zhang is in the sixth recording studio, walk from this side, and turn right at the end of the first room." ”

"Thank you." Shen Chong didn't move, he pointed to the right and asked, "Is that the lounge over there?" ”

"Yes, it's open all night over there, if Mr. Shen needs anything, you can go over there and have a look."

Shen Chong nodded, and then walked to the right, he drank some liquor, he was a little thirsty, and planned to get some hot drinks, and by the way, take a look at the tour and see the environment.

The decoration of the lounge is very much like a petty bourgeois coffee shop, between the scattered tables and chairs, there are a lot of floral decorations, there is a piano in the middle, there is a beautiful shelf next to it, there are some wind instruments, and there are guitars and other string instruments hanging on the surrounding walls.

glanced at the people facing him, he didn't know them now, and there were no familiar ones, Shen Chong didn't take it to heart, he asked for a cup of dissolved coffee from the waiter, and then he was ready to go to Zhang Aijia.

At the moment when he turned around, he heard someone say: "Cai Qin, don't do it in Haishan, come out and build your own record company with us." ”

"I don't have much money." That's right, it was Cai Qin, who said in her trademark mellow voice: "It costs a lot of money to be a record company, and you can't do it." ”

"It doesn't cost much, you see, we will write songs, Li Shouquan will make zuò, you and Li Jianfu can sing, it is not expensive to rent a recording studio here, after recording, go to Xinge to make the record, and then entrust Rolling Stone or UFO to help, it's almost the same, I want to save a little use, two or three hundred thousand can make an album."

When Shen Chong heard this, he took his coffee, found a nearby table and sat down, listening attentively.

"My contract with Haishan hasn't expired yet." Cai Qin said: "If you break the contract, it will be very troublesome. Let me think again. ”

"When does your contract expire?"

"After the folk wind competition, I signed a two-year contract with Haishan, which expires at the end of this year." Cai Qin said: "Mr. Zheng has always taken care of me, and I don't want to take the initiative to break the contract. ”

"Singing a record will give you more than NT$100,000, which is also considered care?" Another young man said disdainfully: "These bosses, all of them are vampires, they only give tens of thousands of yuan to write a song, and even the copyright is bought out, and they make a lot of money, let us drink the wind." As in the United States and Japan, it is only right that songwriters can take a cut of the copyright of their works. ”

"Now that the entire Taiwanese music industry is like this, even the copyright law still follows the old yellow calendar of the Qing Dynasty, what can we do?"

"It's not all, I heard that Rolling Stone and UFO can sign a copyright sharing contract, Qi Yu's record last year was more than one million NT$ before New Year's Day, and it is still selling well, according to the contract, she can always collect money, and one record is more profitable than we make ten records."

"You only see the good, you don't see the bad, what about Luo Dayou, his album is no worse than Qi Yu's, but he was banned, he didn't make a dime, but posted four or five hundred thousand upside down, and he lost to death."

"If you want to lose, it's also a rolling stone loss, why does he have to post it upside down?"

"Luo Dayou took his own lyrics and music copyrights into Rolling Stone, and the company lost, of course he also lost."

"Four or five hundred thousand, it doesn't matter, anyway, he knows the big boss behind the Rolling Stones, and Zhang Aijia appreciates it, and he will make a few more movie soundtracks, and he will earn it back, I heard that he made the soundtrack for "Crazy Robbery", so he received 100,000 Hong Kong dollars."

"That's right. In this day and age, it's really fucking shit, no matter how talented you are, it's not as good as being rich, you'd rather be a rich man than a talent. ”

"Haha, Tie Zhang, look at your politeness, why do you speak so vulgarly. Okay, don't talk, it's almost time to rest, let's go, go record. ”

After a few people stood up, Shen Chong took a look, and sure enough, there was Cai Qin, she had a big curl, wearing a brown handmade sweater, and a pair of thick and big black-framed glasses, full of rustic, like a country village girl, without the graceful demeanor of the future at all.

In Shen Chong's view, Cai Qin is one of the most suitable musicians in the Chinese music scene to promote to the world, her voice is very recognizable, simple and gorgeous, with universal communication ability, can penetrate cultural barriers, even foreigners who do not understand the language, can appreciate the beauty.

Moreover, Cai Qin's singing skills and professionalism are the top, and she can maintain her state for more than 30 years, and the older she gets, the more charming she becomes, which is a treasure worth cultivating.

After putting down the coffee cup, following behind them, and seeing the number of the recording studio they entered, Shen Chong walked towards the sixth recording room.

The door frame of the recording studio is wrapped in professional soundproof rubber, and when it is pushed open, there is no sound at all, and several people inside are wearing monitoring headphones, listening attentively to Zhang Aijia's singing in the glass soundproof room, and they are not aware of his arrival.

Shen Chong didn't bother, he carefully picked up a monitor headphone on the table and put it to his ear.

“… You have to blow the wind gently, don't blow off my red rose, the spring flower is a small bud, and the bright red in summer is more delicate......"

It was actually this song, a wry smile appeared at the corner of Shen Chong's mouth, Luo Dayou wanted to turn over this time, but the effect may not be so ideal.

In his previous life, he gave it to Zhang Aijia, who was still in Gelin Records, and sang it, but after the album was finished, he was scolded by the media for being incomplete, saying that Zhang Aijia is not only a child's voice singing, but also an almost imbecile dementia singing voice, empty and emotionless.

So Luo Dayou and Zhang Aijia's first cooperation ended in a fiasco, the "Maybe" album that included this song almost disappeared without a trace, and its popularity was extremely low, and it was difficult to find it even in Taiwan, so in the hearts of many music fans, the "Childhood" album was the first collaboration between Zhang Aijia and Luo Dayou.

"The Wind Blows Gently" was later covered by Liu Wenzheng, and it became a well-known classic, until a few years later, after Luo Dayou disclosed his original intention to write this song, Zhang Aijia's version of the word of mouth turned over, thinking that she figured out the hollow voice and expression of a mental patient......

Half a step ahead of the times is a genius, and one step ahead of the times is hard to say.

After Zhang Aijia finished singing, Shen Chong appeared, smiled at him, waved his hand, and the people in the recording studio showed his cunning.

"Mr. Shen, welcome, welcome."

"Mr. Duan, hello, Dayou, hello, who are these two?"

"This is Chen Zhiyuan, a genius in arrangement, and this is Huang Ruifeng, a master of drumming, and a good hand at recording."

"Hello, hello." Shen Chong hurriedly greeted them.

Chen Zhiyuan, Taiwan's first arranger master, has countless works, Huang Ruifeng, Taiwan's drum king, recording master, are all familiar names to music lovers.

Zhang Aijia walked out of the soundproof room, held his arm intimately, frowned and asked, "It's so strong, how much did you drink?" ”

"A little." Shen Chong said with a smile: "I deliberately spilled a little wine on my clothes to pretend to be drunk." ”

"It's cunning." Zhang Aijia patted him, and then asked Luo Dayou: "How is this time?" ”

"It's okay." Luo Dayou probably couldn't accept the reality of the goddess falling into the hands of others, he lowered his head slightly, and said a little unnaturally: "There are just two sentences, you need to start again, the voice is a little more floating, a little more empty, it should be better." ”

"Which two?" Zhang Aijia dragged Shen Chong, leaned over to look at the lyrics, and tried to sing it twice softly, and said, "Okay, I know, let's do it again." ”

"Sylvia." Duan Zhongyi was very interested in dissuading him and said, "It's getting late now, why don't you record it tomorrow?" ”

"I've been thinking about it for a day, and now I've just found the form, and tomorrow maybe the state will be gone, and I have to start again." Zhang Aijia pushed Shen Chong and said, "You wait for me for a while, and I'll record it again." ”

"It's okay, it doesn't matter how many times you record it." Shen Chong smiled and said, "Just don't let them get tired." ”

Zhang Aijia gave a smile, then walked into the soundproof room, put on headphones, brewed for a while, and began to audition.

While listening to the singing, Shen Chong picked up the lyrics and looked at them, there were a total of twelve songs, seven of which were marked as Luo Dayou's works, "We Were Young", "Four Seasons", "Behind the Scenes", "Song", "The Wind Blows Gently", "Let's Come Together", "Spring Hope".

It's really talented......

However, if you want to say that in this world, there is something that can't be moved by butterfly wings, probably because of the growth of people, Luo Dayou is indeed talented, but it is chaotic, the repertoire created, the style is changeable, the content is complex, and I haven't found an accurate outlet.

According to the information of his previous life, Luo Dayou has been composing "Childhood" since 1979, and it was not until 1981 that he determined the creative concept of "lyrics and songs", and only then did he find his own direction and become the godfather of a generation of music

I don't know what Cheng dù wrote about his "Childhood" at this time?
