Chapter 407: Three Songs

Although he already has the complete "Lies" in his heart, it would be too much to hand it over after only watching it for three minutes.

Three minutes to write a superb tune, this is not a genius, it is a non-human, and it is the kind of non-human who must be imprisoned in the Center for Abnormal Human Studies.

"It's really troublesome senior," Quan Zhilong, although he admired Hee-sung, didn't expect him to change his tune immediately.

"It's not troublesome," Hee-sung shook his head, it didn't take a minute of time, it was no trouble.

If Quan Zhilong knew that Hee Sung would be able to change this song now, I don't know if he would be hit, so he won't talk about creation from now on.

"Senior, when are you releasing an album this year?" He hesitated for a moment, but finally asked stubbornly.

"What March looks like, it shouldn't go beyond March," Hee-sung tilted his head and glanced at him, a little funny in his heart, could it be that even Bigbang had to avoid his edge?

When Quan Zhilong heard the news, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

According to the company's plan, they will release a concert CD in February, which almost coincides with Hee-sung's album.

In the past two years, there have been a few people who have to avoid the time when they release albums, Dongfang Shenqi counts one, Lee Hyori counts one, and the mythical Shin Comet is also counted.

But the most prominent is Hee Sung, as soon as his album is released, the entire music scene is simply nothing.

There are not many songs on his album, generally within ten songs, but the songs in the album are all classics.

As long as the album is released, the songs in the album will soon rush to the best-selling charts one after another.

That time can be said to be the darkest time in the music industry, and the music best-selling list is all Hee-sung's songs, and he won at least half of the top10.

It's really like going your own way and leaving others with no way out.

You can also be unconvinced, but there is no way for the title song to be in the top 10, so how can you talk about publicity.

Yang Hyun-seok knew that Kwon Ji-ryong was coming to visit Hee-sung, and specially asked him to inquire about the matter.

The two chatted for a while. Quan Zhilong knew that artists like Hee-sung were busy at the beginning of the year, so he didn't delay Hee-sung's time anymore and quickly left.

Starting from January 2, "Witch Youxi" officially began filming. In the first few days, Hee Sung didn't pass, he had to sort out the songs he had written in the last six months.

Because a concert was going to be held in New York at the beginning of the year, the proportion of Chinese and English songs in Xicheng's three albums has increased a lot.

For example, this song "Heartless", the style of music is very brisk, but the interpretation method is biased towards rap.

Hee Sung learned rap skills for more than two months last year, and this song is a test of his level.

In fact, he originally planned to imitate the style of the rap god Eminem. It's a pity that after trying it, I have to admit that he and Eminem still have a very long way to catch up.

"Heartless" is the result of American rapper Kanye. A song from West, which had a very good popularity in 08.

The main thing is that this song is half spoken and half sung, and it is easier to imitate, and Hee Sung pondered it for a while and did not think that he was worse than the original song.

The second English song is "touch_my_hand", and the original singer is David Brown, the runner-up of the 7th season of the famous talent show "American Idol". Achuretta.

It's also a great song.

The third song in English. is also the title of Hee Cheng's album, the name is "Apologize" (a very nice song, there may be a little discrepancy in time, please ignore it).

Three songs in English. plus "Arson and Rain" from the first album and "Baby" from the second album, so that there are five original songs of their own, which is enough for a small concert.

If you really can't. It's a big deal to sing two more Korean songs when the time comes.

The fourth is a Chinese song - "No One Loves You More Than Me", and the female part will be performed by Warner's famous Chinese entertainment singer Zhang Huimei.

In order to invite this Chinese diva to play, Xicheng paid a huge appearance fee. also has to be Zhang Huimei's concert guest in the second half of the year, at least more than one-fifth of the total number of performances.

In fact, there are so many Chinese singers, just pick one with a little strength to come out, and you can sing this "No One Loves You More Than Me" well.

The key is that Warner Records has a bad face to refuse, and after they got this song, they recommended its Zhang Huimei as soon as possible.

Looking for anyone to sing, that is, spending more money, calculating the publicity effect brought by Zhang Huimei's status in the Chinese music scene, this money is not unjustly spent.

When Xicheng knew that Zhang Huimei had at least 20 concerts this year, he regretted it, which is a later story.

The fifth song was supposed to be a Japanese song, but it was canceled by Hee Sung.

He originally coveted the Japanese market, after all, Japan is the largest record consumer market in Asia, but unfortunately because the proportion of Japanese songs is too low, the album sales have only reached less than 60,000 copies.

This number is really unsatisfactory and belongs to the dispensable stage.

In addition, Hee-sung has already opened up overseas markets with "baby", so the little money in the Japanese market is insignificant.

After all, he did not have the time or interest to go to Japan to promote.

So except for three English songs and one Chinese duet, the rest are Korean songs.

The first song is "Only Pain Remains", and in the memory of otaku, this song is an interlude to "The Secret Garden".

For this song, Hee Sung specially asked people to buy the adaptation rights of "Varsog" from Norwegian creator Henning_Sommerro.

"Varsog" is a popular Norwegian traditional folk song, composed in 1977 and sung by the famous Norwegian bel canto singer Anne Vada in the same year.

The foreign group multicydeanea adapted the song and named it "Abetterday".

In 2001, the Korean group JTL covered a song by multicydeanea, also titled "Abetterday", which was included on the album "EntertheDragon".

"ABetterDay" is the title song of JTL's first album, which is based on Norwegian folk songs with light music and rap singing, and is re-written and arranged by Lee Jae-won, singing with a different feeling.

After that, Andy Lau covered the song in 2002 and named it "Black Bat Squadron", which was included in the album "Beautiful Day".

Hee Sung's song "Only Pain Remains" is very different from "Varsog" or "ABetterDay". Only some passages are similar.

In addition, there is a song "That Woman", which is also an episode of "The Secret Garden", which Hee Sung did not include and plans to combine several songs from "The Secret Garden" into a CD.

The second Korean song is called "No Heart", the original singer is 8Eight, this song needs a woman to help sing, and Hee Sung can't find a suitable candidate for a while, so he has to pull Taeyeon to fill the number, but fortunately it is not the main hit. It doesn't matter if he sings almost, the last thing Xicheng is afraid of is tyrannical things, and he should give his friends a chance to exercise.

The third Korean song, Hee Sung plagiarized MC Dream's "Death Like Pain", which is a very classic song, and it is also one of the best in Hee Sung's album.

This song is his second main track and also a Korean staple.

In this album, Hee Sung only has one original song, called "Confused Love". It's a love song, and the quality is very good.

The last Korean song, Hee Sung plans to use "Death Can't Let You Go".

This song was included in 2AM's mini album released in 2010, and it has a double number one in a row among popular songs.

As for the problem that he can't sing the group song alone. It's not that there is no way to solve it, just ask Li Xiuman to borrow someone.

Now Lee so-man is the artist director of S&M.

In the past two years, he has been low-key and exaggerated, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see him.

But Hee Sung was not among them, just because of a phone call. Li Xiuman deliberately postponed an interview with his subordinates.

He has been very nervous lately, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is worried.

It all started years ago.

According to the investigative agency, Lee so-man embezzled 1.15 billion won of SM's public funds in August 1998 in connection with SM's paid capital increase. Invested in SM stocks as its own capital increase funds, stealing tens of billions of won in stock market spreads.

In 2002, he was investigated by the South Korean prosecutor's office, fled to the United States for more than one year, returned to South Korea in 2004 to stand trial, and on September 3, 2004, the Criminal Division 25 of the Seoul Central District Court (Chief Judge Lee Hyun-sung) found Lee so-man guilty and sentenced him to two years in prison with a three-year reprieve.

In other words, if there is no accident, he will have to spend the second half of this year in prison.

The only turning point is next month's presidential pardon.

In order to provide new motivation for the second economic take-off and create new job opportunities, as well as to promote social unity, the amnesty was granted on the fourth anniversary of President Roh Moo-hyun's inauguration.

In fact, these reasons are, and to put it bluntly, President Roh Moo-hyun is preparing for the general election at the end of the year.

There are no good people or bad people who play politics, and anything can be traded in front of interests.

A specific amnesty package is still being discussed.

Li Xiuman knew that this was his last chance, and if he missed it, he would be in prison for two years.

For this day, he did not hesitate to sign an almost ridiculous contract, but also to get closer to Hee-sung, from his debut publicity to the later settlement of the record incident, and then to the later HS studio, so on, Lee so-man has never been sorry for Hee-sung.

It's not that he loves talents, it's not that he is kind-hearted and has the style of an elder, his main purpose is not to go to prison.

Don't look at the thirty or forty percent equity in his hand, once he goes to prison, there is no way to maintain his right to speak in the company, not to mention that Kim Yingmin is not a safe master.

Hee-sung doesn't have the ability to influence Roh Moo-hyun, but the family behind him can.

Hearing that Xicheng had something to look for him, Li Xiuman waited in his office restlessly.

"You're welcome, sit down quickly," Li Xiuman saw Xicheng come in, and asked him to sit down with a smile on his face, "It's starting to snow outside, and you don't have much to wear." ā€

"Thank you, teacher," Hee-sung was a little confused about his extraordinary enthusiasm, but he still bowed politely and said hello, "I came here to ask the teacher for help this time." ā€

"Oh, there's something, just say it." It turned out that he didn't send news about the amnesty to himself, Li Xiuman sighed in disappointment in his heart, but his face didn't show it at all, very enthusiastic.

"This is my three albums of songs, there are nine in total, you can help me take a look," Hee Sung didn't say directly, but handed his album plan to Lee so-man.

Li Xiuman put on his glasses, took them and looked at them for a while, and said in surprise: "You wrote it?" ā€

"Yes. There is only one song that involves a little copyright issue, but I have already asked people to contact the original creator," Hee Sung said with a hint of pride: "I don't like to sing songs written by others, so instead of buying them from other creators, I might as well write them myself." ā€

Li Xiuman was originally a singer, and later known as a famous producer, and his vision for lyrics and music is naturally an expert among experts.

He only opened it for a moment, and then he felt a burst of horror.

Tyrannical creatures!

As long as you watch Hee-sung's album songs, you will feel overwhelmed.

That's the case with the first series. Like the two songs "One Minute and One Second" and "Aren't We in Love", they are not ranked in the album at all, but they are considered high-quality hits when given to others.

The same is true for the second series. The four songs "No More People Like This", "Troublemaker", "Snow White" and "The Girl Who Ran Away" all have the strength to hit the popular ballad charts.

Now that I've watched three episodes, Li Xiuman wants to vomit blood.

These three series are not inferior to the previous two, and almost every one of them is a masterpiece.

However, this is all written by Hee Cheng. Even if he doesn't look good, he can't help it.

I can only silently pray for the singers who released albums this year, and it is best not to bump into this kid.

"It's all good songs, but what are you going to do with this last song?" Li Xiuman raised his head suspiciously.

"No Heart" or that "Nobody Loves You More Than Me" is better to say. Just find a girl to sing with you, but this song "Death Can't Let You Go" is sung by several boys.

"This is where there is a request for the teacher," Hee Sung smiled, "I want to find two people from the company to sing with me, I don't know if it's convenient or not." ā€

"Convenient, of course convenient, I just don't know if you have a suitable candidate," Li Xiuman naturally would not object, in fact, this kind of thing is undesirable for S&M.

"I do have a little idea," Hee Sung nodded, "I'm going to have Choi Si Won and Shin Dong Hee form a temporary group with me, what do you think?" ā€

Although it's a temporary group, as long as a good song comes out, it's easy to go off.

Li Xiuman even forgot about the amnesty, he touched his chin and seriously thought about Hee Cheng's Jianyi.

After a long while, he shook his head and said, "If you insist, it's not impossible, but I'm still ready to give you a little different opinion." ā€

"Please say," Hee Sung hurriedly replied, looking for Choi Si Won and Shin Dong Hee (the prodigy) was just his preliminary plan, and he hadn't even discussed it with them himself, so he still had to think carefully about whether it would work or not.

If Li Xiuman can come up with any reasonable proposals, he will certainly be cautious.

"Dongxi's words, with all due respect, are very incompatible with you, if the two of you stand on the same stage, he can only be reduced to a foil," Li Xiuman said unceremoniously: "There is also Shi Yuan, his current focus is on his acting career, he may not be very interested in this, if you want to form a small team with a stable point, Shi Yuan is not the best choice." ā€

"Is there anyone who has a choice for the teacher?" Hee Sung thought about it and had to admit that what he said had some truth.

"Your singing skills should be in the top five among the company's artists, it's not a pity to have such an advantage," Li Xiu said confidently: "Why don't you just choose two people whose singing skills are similar to yours, and use your singing skills as a selling point?" ā€

Xi Cheng is not very interested in the singing ranking, but he is definitely Li Xiuman's mention of yƬ has a certain truth.

If you talk about singing skills, Ahn Qixuan's singing skills should be unsurpassed, and next, maybe it will be the turn of Godrise's Kim Jun-so, Kim Jae-jung, as well as SJ's Ye-sang and Kyuhyun.

"In my opinion, you can choose Junxiu and Yisheng, in this case, your characteristics will be obvious," Li Xiuman himself began to admire himself, and he was able to come up with such an idea.

"Junxiu Xi and Yesheng Xi ......" Hee Sung groaned for a moment, thinking about what role these two people would play when they were paired with him.

"Actually, I also have selfish intentions," Li Xiuman said with a smile: "One is from Shenqi and the other is from SJ, plus you who debuted among them, if you promote them together, you will maximize your benefits." ā€

"Can I talk to them and make a decision?" Although Hee Sung was tempted, he didn't make a decision immediately.

The twisted melon is not sweet, who knows if these two are willing to form a small group with him.

He can't just write this group song, and he doesn't want to sing it all to others, so having a small group is naturally the best choice.

"Of course you can," Li Xiuman said solemnly: "No matter what you decide, I think the company will fully support it, as long as it ...... Don't look for artists outside the company, haha......"

"This is natural," looking for teammates across entertainment companies, Hee Sung really didn't think that no matter what the relationship between HS and S&M was, at least he considered himself a member of the S&M family.

"Your album was released in March, right," Li Xiuman was very satisfied with Xicheng's attitude, and sincerely wished: "I wish you a big sale of the album first, when making the album, if there is a need for the company, don't be embarrassed to speak, we are a family." ā€

"Thank you, teacher," Hee Sung said politely, and after a while, he got up to say goodbye.

Li Xiuman hesitated to take the initiative to ask about the amnesty.

Unexpectedly, Xicheng, who walked to the door, suddenly stopped, and he said very casually: "My father asked me to tell you that you can relax about the amnesty." ā€

PS: Big chapter, the songs in an album, each one has to be found for a long time, and you have to try it out to see if it's good or not, check the information and check the dead.

The songs in the three albums, except for the original, can be found in others, and I recommend them to everyone, they are all good songs. (To be continued......)
