The production of these tapes is the achievements of the Pacific Company for more than a year, but even so, in He Zhili's opinion, these achievements are not worth showing off, because all the singers and songs have either become famous for a long time or old songs that have been sung for a long time, and the Pacific Company is just recording and sorting out and distributing them again.

And although these are good songs, they also have many distinctive mainland characteristics, compared with those songs in Hong Kong and Taiwan, although these songs are not low in artistic composition, and the content is also positive, but because they do not belong to the category of pop songs, the professional requirements for singing these songs are too high. Nowadays, young people also prefer popular songs from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and pop songs are more popular than orthodox songs.

It is precisely for this reason that Pacific Company has been trying to change its exploration, from the initial simple cooperation with famous singers, recording and releasing those old songs and good songs, but also intends to learn from the model of its counterparts in Hong Kong to create its own singers and characteristics, so as to create pop songs that are in line with the trend.

But this kind of thing is easy to say, but it is very difficult to actually do.

First, good singers are not so easy to find, and now many famous or promising singers only have those, plus these singers either have a formal unit or disdain to sing non-traditional songs, because of ideological reasons, traditional singers have different views on pop songs, and most of them feel that pop songs cannot be regarded as real songs at all.

Second, there are few good songs, due to domestic practical factors and people's traditional concepts, many singers pay more attention to the upward significance and educational significance of songs in their creation, and sneer at popular songs (popular songs), which do not belong to traditional songs.

Even in Xiangjiang, there are not many real creators, and many pop songs are actually borrowed.

It is not uncommon to use Dongying's pop songs from Dongying and fill in the lyrics again, and sing them to their own singers after changing their faces.

From the 80s to the 90s, many singers or songs that were widely circulated in Hong Kong came out in this way, but the reasons for the lack of information and information asymmetry in the mainland are not clear. And after the 21st century, with the explosion of information circulation, many people have figured out the true origin of many songs that they have heard since childhood.

The real explosion of pop songs in Chinese mainland was in 1986, with the Pacific Company producing the cassette (cassette of "Singing Across the Seas" for the famous singer Fei Xiang, and Fei Xiang appeared on the stage of the 1987 Spring Festival Gala at the beginning of the following year, after lighting a raging flame in that winter, the mainland's perception of pop songs began to change dramatically, thus promoting the rapid development of the industry.

And today, He Zhili actually heard two strange good songs in Luoyang, although these two songs belong to the category of pop songs, they do not have all the problems of those pop songs that have been strongly criticized. The lyrics are sincere, the words are moving, and at the same time they are touching and nostalgic, if there are more, and even let Song Yuanchao write songs directly for the Pacific Company, so good!

He Zhili couldn't help but put forward a request to get to know Song Yuanchao, if he could get to know this person, it would be very helpful for the future of the Pacific Company, but in the face of He Zhili's inquiry, Luo Yang was stunned at first, and then couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

Shaking his head, Luo Yang said bluntly: "My friend is not a professional in this, and he doesn't like to show his head in front of outsiders, so I can only help him decline." ”

"This ...... Mr. Luo, can't you discuss? If your friend can cooperate with our company, the conditions given by our company are very generous. He Zhili felt a little lost in his heart, but at the same time he wanted to fight again.

Luo Yang shook his head: "There is no need to mention this matter again, I know the other party's thoughts very well, in fact, I won't hide it from you, he has already explained to me before he came, and he can't reveal his true identity to anyone." ”

"This ...... It's a shame ....... He Zhili sighed, if the other party was an ordinary person, He Zhili might move it again to reason and understand his feelings, but Luo Yang's identity is different, maybe his friend is the same identity as Luo Yang, just playing tickets, so please don't move people.

If Luo Yang knew what He Zhili was thinking now, it was estimated that he would laugh off his big teeth, Song Yuanchao has always been independent, let alone He Zhili, if there are some things Song Yuanchao is unwilling, even Luo Yang can't say that he can't move him.

Besides, Song Yuanchao is not short of money, where can he see the small money of the Pacific Company? Although Luo Yang doesn't know how much money Song Yuanchao has and how much money he has, Luo Yang can be sure that Song Yuanchao must have much more money than him, as for how he came here, not to mention that Song Yuanchao didn't make less money just by buying and selling Dashilar, not to mention that Song Yuanchao had other businesses in hand.

Not to talk about lyrics and music, He Zhili continued to get down to business after asking fruitlessly.

Regarding Rowling's release of the tape, He Zhili said that there is no problem, although the two songs are less, it is okay to put together a few more solo songs to choose. As for the other songs, He Zhili has already thought about it, so he will choose a few suitable songs from the popular songs in Hong Kong and Taiwan to sing, and then put them together.

Then we discussed how to make a song and how to make a specific arrangement for the tape.

As for making up songs, this kind of professional thing is still left to professional people to do, He Zhili said that there is no problem, he will arrange for someone to select a suitable song catalog for Luo Yang as soon as possible, and then Luo Yang will transfer it to Luo Lin to select eight songs to sing.

Recording or something, this must require a professional venue and equipment, originally He Zhili suggested that Luo Lin come to Yangcheng directly to record a song, but this request was rejected by Luo Yang.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

It's August now, and it's about to be September, Rowling and Lin Yuhang are scheduled to get married on National Day, and it takes at least half a month to travel to and from Yangcheng and record songs, plus Rowling has a unit, and it is impossible to take such a long vacation, so the work of recording songs can only be carried out in Yanjing.

Luo Yang is not worried about the venue and equipment, he can find a friend from the Ministry of Culture to solve this problem, what equipment will not be available at the feet of the dignified emperor? Besides, the recording of singers such as Li Guyi was not recorded in Yangcheng, but in Yanjing, so Rowling can be like them.

Due to Luo Yang's insistence, He Zhili could only agree and agreed to make an appointment when the time came, and he would personally take someone to Yanjing to do this.

In addition to the recording of the song, He Zhili also asked Luo Lin's name, because the singer's name and photo must be typed when the tape is released, and Luo Yang also expressed a different opinion.

For the time being, Luo Yang doesn't want Rowling to use her real name, you must know that Rowling is a person with a unit, and his intention in doing this is to let Rowling try this path, but once she goes out of the belt and doesn't expect the result, then Rowling will cause her a lot of trouble if she uses her real name.

The same is true for photos, photos on the cover will also cause trouble, so after thinking about it, Luo Yang still plans to keep it secret for the time being, and he makes two requests, not his real name, not the photo.

"You don't have to use a stage name if you don't have a real name, right? Otherwise, this belt won't be able to come out. As for the photos...... How about using a silhouette if you don't want to show your face? What do you think about making an art form out of the side so that you can't see your face? He Zhili thought about it and asked.

"That's fine." Luo Yang nodded, but what is the stage name for? For a while, Luo Yang didn't know how to call Rowling.

"How about leaves?" At this time, Li Xiaoyun, who was on the side, suddenly said.

"Leaves?" Luo Yang was stunned.

"That's right! Isn't that poem "When You're Old" written by Yeats? Yeats leaves, it sounds about the same, and how beautiful the word leaf is! Think about it, autumn is coming, the leaves turn yellow, and when the autumn flies blow, the golden leaves sway with the wind and slowly fall from the sky...... How poetic is it? ”

"I think it's good, the name Ye Zi is quite nice and easy to remember." On the side, Daniel Zhang nodded in agreement, in fact, no matter what Li Xiaoyun suggested, Daniel Zhang, who had long lost the bottom line, would not hesitate to raise his hands in agreement.

"Leaves...... Leaf....... Luo Yang chattered, thought about it and shook his head: "Although Ye Zi is good, I always feel that it is not like a serious name, but like the name of a Dongying woman, such as Fangzi and Shuzi, if I really come up with this name, if my old man knows it, he must beat me to death." ”

"Does this have anything to do with it? Why don't you say that there are camel Shoko and Kawabe Ryoko....... Li Xiaoyun couldn't help but slander in her stomach, and was a little unhappy when Luo Yang said this, so she frowned and continued to think about it.

"Mr. Luo, in fact, the leaves are good, and what Miss Li said is also right, the leaves make people feel very poetic. However, if you feel that these two words are a bit inappropriate, you may be able to work around. He Zhili interjected on the side.

"Flexible? Manager He, how do you think it is good to be flexible? ”

He Zhili raised his hand to hold his glasses, and said: "Although the autumn leaves are beautiful, the autumn leaves also give people a feeling of depression, from this point of view, it seems that the meaning is not very good, plus the word leaf Since Mr. Luo doesn't like it very much, how about using summer leaves?" The leaves of summer, the sun shines in summer, it is a season of joy and equally a season of passion. And the word Xia Ye also sounds more like a human name, what do you think? ”

"Natsuba? Natsuba! ”

Luo Yang muttered twice, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

This suggestion from He Zhili is good, Xia Ye! The name is better than the leaf and more like a personal name, and the summer leaf is also very poetic and reminiscent.

Immediately, Luo Yang made a decision and called it Xia Ye, and Luo Lin's stage name in the future will be it. As for whether Rowling will like this name, Luo Yang is very confident, who doesn't know who the sister and brother who grew up together since childhood? The name Natsuba Rowling will love it.
