Chapter 9 Recording Songs

"I don't sing very well, but I have a pretty good song at hand!"

According to the classification of the system, those songs that are sung and no one listens to are inferior songs, and the songs that are of good quality but difficult to sell are medium songs, among which there are no inferior songs in the system, and there are relatively few medium songs, and Menjie gets the preference for the lowest medium songs in the system.

After that, there are more classic, high-end songs with a certain market, some top-level songs that are widely circulated and have the potential to sell well.

Usually when ordinary newcomer singers release albums, if they can come up with four or five medium-grade songs, as soon as they produce high-quality songs, they can sell well, although it is difficult to become popular, but they can also release albums tepidly.

Menjie's preference at hand is a good existence in a medium-sized song, and if it is posted on the Internet, it can indeed attract some fans, which will help you get a high-quality contract!

It just so happened that Menjie had already put the song imprinted in his mind into a written form, pulled it out of the script and handed it to Su Youpeng.

"Brother Youpeng, you can help me see, if it is recorded, can it be of some help!"

After taking Menjie's song, Su Youpeng looked at it and frowned slightly, "Menjie, your song...... How to say it! It's a medium song, and it barely has some potential for a high-class song, and if it is recorded as a single, it will not be a problem to attract dozens or hundreds of fans, but it is impossible to become a hit! ”

"If you can record it and show your singing skills, it is estimated that there will be no problem for Huayi Brothers to discuss raising the contract level!"

"By the way, I have a solution here!" Although she is not good at singing, she has also released three singles, and Jia Jingwen, who knows a little better, said after reading Menjie's 'preference', "It just so happens that this song has that kind of classical feeling, why don't you record this song and show it to Director Yang, it can be used as an episode of Heaven and Dragon Slayer!" ”

"It's a good way, if it can be successful, it can also make Menjie popular, and there is no one in our crew who is ready to sing the song of Heaven and Dragon Slayer, so it's just right to hand it over to Menjie!"

"Let's go, let's go over and talk to Yang Tao!"

Worried that Men Jie would hand over the song alone, which would make the director a little unconcerned, Jia Jingwen volunteered to follow Men Jie over, and Su Youpeng on the side thought about it, and it happened that there was nothing to do, so he followed.

"Director Yang, are you free now? I have something I want to trouble you! Seeing that Yang Tao was looking at the script, Menjie walked over and said.

"What's the matter?" Yang Tao raised his head and saw that Menjie, Jia Jingwen, and Su Youpeng were all over, and he was a little puzzled.

These days, even Yang Tao can't help but be shocked, Menjie's communication and affinity are really good, and Su Youpeng and Jia Jingwen have made friends in such a short period of time, and it also makes Yang Tao value Menjie more.

In the entertainment industry, having connections is also a big advantage!

"That's right, I wrote a song a few days ago, and I also composed a song, and it feels quite in line with that chivalrous atmosphere, so I wondered if I could record it and use it as a song of Heaven and Dragon Slayer!" Menjie handed over the 'favorite' lyrics and songs in his hand, and said cautiously, "If the theme song doesn't work, the ending song can also work!" ”

Yang Tao took the lyrics and songs in his hand, glanced at them, then raised his head and turned his head to look at Su Youpeng, "What do you think of this song?" ”

As a director, Yang Tao doesn't know much about songs, so he can only turn to Su Youpeng, who is more skilled in this area.

"This song is good, usually our kind of costume TV series needs that kind of song full of ancient love and chivalrous feeling, the theme song is probably a first-class song, the ending song is a medium song, this song by Menjie can barely be used as the theme song, and it is more than enough to serve as the ending song, it is definitely not a problem!"

Su Youpeng did not favor Menjie either, and said his views as they were.

"Okay!" Yang Tao shrugged his shoulders and looked at Menjie, "This song, are you going to sing it yourself?" ”

"Of course! I wrote it myself, and naturally I sang it myself! Seeing that there was a door to the matter, Menjie hurriedly nodded in response.

"That's good! In a few days, when you don't have a role, find a time to record it yourself, and show it to me after recording, and if it's okay, I will give priority to hiring your song! With the help of Jia Jingwen and Su Youpeng, Yang Tao agreed very happily, and it can be regarded as a favor for Menjie.

Find time to record songs on your own? Not to mention that we have no one to guide us to sing well, renting a recording studio is a problem, and it is really difficult for a penny to be a hero.

A drop of cold sweat flowed from Menjie's forehead, and he looked at Yang Tao with some embarrassment, "Yang Tao, the recording studio where the song was recorded ......"

"Director Yang!" Jia Jingwen stopped Menjie, "You can rest assured about this matter!" My brother absolutely did the job right! ”

"That's good!" Yang Tao did not doubt that he was there, and after saying a few words, he turned around and left, and began the filming of the next scene.

"Sister, I'm still going to take the opportunity to predict some salary to Director Yang! Or I wouldn't have the money to rent a recording studio! Menjie said with a sad face.

"What's so hard about this! Recording songs, sister did it for you! Jia Jingwen patted her chest, "Although your sister and I quit the music scene after singing three songs, I also know some people, and I will definitely let you record the songs!" Besides, the difficulty of this song is not high, absolutely no problem! ”

"This ...... Okay, I'm sorry to trouble my sister, I'll invite my sister to dinner after I finish recording the song! Menjie thought about it, and Jia Jingwen, who had a good relationship with him, was naturally better than Yang Tao, so he nodded and agreed.

…………

"Sister, where is the recording studio you took me to? It's so remote! ”

finally stayed up for about half a month to get a rare vacation, Jia Jingwen took Menjie to record the song of preference, looking at the more and more remote surroundings, Menjie had a feeling of being sold.

"It's not all your fault! Say that you have to wait for the money to be returned to me, there is no way, I have to take you to a recording studio with a relatively low price! ”

Jia Jingwen glared at Menjie, but she still gave people a feeling of all kinds of amorous feelings.

In the past half a month, Jia Jingwen has brought breakfast and milk to Menjie every morning, and the two have long been commensurate with sisters and brothers, and their favorability has reached 99% of friendship, I believe that as long as it is slightly stimulated, the relationship between the two will be further improved!

"Sister Jingwen, how much does it cost me to record a song? Don't lie to me, or I'll be upset! "I'm about to start recording my first song, and Menjie is a little excited.

"Now the mainland record industry is not very sluggish, it is good for newcomers to sell tens of thousands of copies, 100,000 copies are considered big sales, and many young artists dare not record songs rashly, so the price is still very low!"

"When recording original songs like yours, there is no accompaniment tape in the recording studio, so you have to record the accompaniment score first, and then record the song, so the process is cumbersome and expensive, at least more than 1,000 yuan, basically fluctuating around 1,500 yuan."

"In addition, the recording engineer I invited you is also considered to have some strength, and it costs five hundred yuan a day, which adds up to about 2,000!" Jia Jingwen didn't take it to heart and said casually.

Menjie's song is honestly not high-end, if you can have a first-class song as the title song, if you prefer only one in the album, there is no problem in selling tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of copies after the album is released, but if you take this song as the title song......

Well, I'm afraid it will be impossible for Menjie to enter the music scene in the future.

Because of this, Jia Jingwen only regarded Menjie's song as the ending song that she wanted to sell to the crew, and didn't pay too much attention to it.

"Not bad!"

Not long after, Menjie's eyes suddenly brightened, and a recording studio appeared, the scale was not bad, and it was not the kind of antiques that had been built for decades.

"Zhao Jun, this is the younger brother I am talking about, I will trouble you today!"

Everything had already been taken care of, and Jia Jingwen introduced a man in his forties who seemed to be polite to Menjie.

"Brother, you can record a song with Zhao Jun here, I'll come to pick you up at night, I'll go back to filming first!"

Jia Jingwen still has a role in the scene today, and it is already a big face to be able to send Menjie here, so naturally she can't delay filming because of Menjie, so she turned around and left after a few sentences.

"Teacher Zhao, I'm going to trouble you today!"

Facing Zhao Jun, Menjie also handed over his favorite lyrics and songs very respectfully.

"It's okay! Although it's not as good as a top-notch song, it's not too much, and it's not bad for a newcomer. ”

After watching it for a while, the experienced Zhao Jun also got a lot of knowledge and brought Menjie into the recording studio.

Although it was the first time to record a song, Menjie couldn't figure it out with other equipment, but as a singer, as long as he stood in the studio and sang, Menjie put on a headset slightly awkwardly and made an OK gesture to Zhao Jun behind the glass.

"Let's try it first, let me see how good you are!"

Hearing the voice of Zhao Jun in the headset, Menjie took a deep breath, his voice slowly rose from the bass to the high, and after opening his voice completely, Menjie took out the lyrics and music scores he carried with him, brought the microphone to his mouth, and was ready to start recording for the first time.

This set of processes was found on the Internet by Menjie before, and I feel that it should be useful to use it today.

Seeing that Menjie was ready, Zhao Jun nodded, opened various facilities, and the accompaniment slowly sounded in Menjie's ears.

"Invalidate yesterday, now you are in front of my eyes~ I want to love, please give me a chance!"

It looks relatively immature on the outside, but after the voice comes out, there is a feeling full of magnetism, Menjie has just sung less than two sentences, and is immersed in his own singing, and the accompaniment stops abruptly.
