Teacher Han's name is Han Xiao, and he is a composer. At the age of forty, he has already become the music director of Yuecheng Silver Bird Entertainment Company. There are not only nearly 70 full-time songwriters in hand, but also some famous songwriters in the cross-strait and three regions who loosely cooperate.

As one of the top comprehensive entertainment companies in Guangdong, Yinque has always had close business cooperation with the Bauhinia Hong Kong Performing Arts Circle, which is separated by a bridge and a bay.

The core business in this area is to be responsible for the distribution of Bauhinia Port film and television and records in the inland of China, as well as the talent export of Yinque's artists to the Bauhinia Hong Kong entertainment industry. In terms of film and television investment planning and production, Yinque has in-depth cooperation with many film and television companies in Bauhinia Port at all levels.

In many areas of cooperation between Yinque and Bauhinia Harbor Showbiz, it has almost been a win-win situation in the past 20 years. If you have to say that there is something not easy, in recent years, only Han Xiao is in charge of the music business, which has encountered a small bottleneck.

Bauhinia Port's Cantopop songs have been released under great pressure in the interior of China, and the situation has not been opened for a long time.

Some of the film and television companies that cooperate with Bauhinia Port have entrusted Yinque Company to compose lyrics and music for their film and television works, but they are also becoming more and more stretched, and it is becoming more and more difficult to pass the draft.

Whether it is the dozens of songwriters directly under him, or those loosely cooperative songwriters, they seem to have fallen into a strange circle that is difficult to break through.

Including the big boss of Yinque, no one blamed Han Xiao or put pressure on him to work. Because everyone knows that this situation is not Han Xiao's lack of business or professional ability, but a common problem faced by the entire entertainment industry across the Taiwan Strait.

Because the audience's appreciative and aesthetic ability is improving, and the creative class's ability to innovate with the times lags behind the market demand.

This is also the main reason why Han Xiao hung his email directly on the company's website. The highest rank of the mailbox in other departments is just a small role like the assistant director.

Han Xiao is very eager for talented music newcomers to join and impact the backwater of the songwriting industry. The urgency of his mood can be seen from this.

Half an hour to an hour before going to bed every day is the time for Han Xiao to accept the self-recommended works in the mailbox.

Niu Er distributed the email in the evening, so Han Xiao saw it when he opened the sixth email to listen to it.

Regardless of their singing skills and lyrics, other people's self-recommended demos do their best to make the video as beautiful as possible and repair the timbre as flawless as possible.

This short piece of audio from Niu Er is extremely shabby to watch.

Han Xiao still listened to it.

The sound quality is pristine......

There is even a faint background sound. Occasional murmurs such as talking and other noises.

Han Xiao re-watched it, and finally realized that this demo was actually recorded with a mobile phone. Listening to the background sound, it seems to be still near a public place.

But Han Xiao only listened to one or two syllables, and he felt a little interesting. If you listen carefully to the singer's timbre, it seems to be pretty good.

Han Xiao accepts these self-recommended works, and each audition will not exceed forty seconds. If you listen to two sentences in the main song, you will immediately jump to the chorus and listen to two more sentences, and you will basically live together.

Niu Er's two short syllables, Han Xiao listened to the chorus, and the main song was not recorded at all.

After listening to it twice, he remembered that there seemed to be a few paragraphs of the self-recommender on the email.

"Hello Mr. Han, my name is Niu Er, I am just eighteen years old this year, and I will graduate from high school soon. My home is in Nisa Town, Yunzhou, which is still five or six kilometers away from the town center, and the conditions are very limited. So there's really no way to record a demo like that, but I believe that the song I just wrote is anything but ordinary. It would be a great honor for me to have the opportunity to play and sing to you in person. ”

"Not only can I compose lyrics, compose music and sing, but I can also play a variety of ethnic and Western instruments. Well, my mother used to have a master's degree from Yanzhou University of Music. When I went to Nisa Town to cut the queue for exercise, I was tricked by my tall and handsome father, and then there was me. When I was three or four years old, my mother started training like a little devil. ”

"I have written and composed more than a dozen songs and prepared to sing them myself, all of which have been filed with the Xiqu Music Copyright Office. All that has been passed to you is two or three syllables in the chorus of this song, and the lyrics and music scores have also been filed with the Copyright Office, which is an absolute original work. ”

"Because I am about to face the college entrance examination, I send you this demo, just hoping to cooperate with your company to produce a finished product, and then use your company's strong distribution channels and publicity resources to launch this song. As for other follow-up matters, I hope to have the opportunity to discuss with Mr. Han in person. ”

After reading Niu Er's long-winded text, Han Xiao listened to the remaining more than 40 demos, and then turned off the computer and went to bed.

As usual, none of the songs could make his ears move.

Only this is the most unseemly, not a demo at all, which makes him remember a little guy named Niuer.

......

After breakfast the next morning, Niu Er carried his guitar to his backyard.

There are osmanthus trees in the backyard of Azmo's house, and the backyard of Niu Er's house is dominated by apple and cherry trees, as well as two tall walnut trees.

It's early November, and the leaves are starting to wither. A few trees were hung with only sparse yellow and green leaves, mottled branches, and soon they would be bare.

On the ground, there are endless pieces of yellow leaves, like a wild and romantic carpet for the yard.

Under the walnut tree, there is a wooden pier the thickness of a large pot as a table, and there are several low stools made of wooden piers around it. These primitive tables and stools are made by Niu Dad to have both the taste of natural plants and trees, and the delicacy of loving life.

Niu Er sat down on a low stool and began to play and sing solemnly.

mainly plays the two Cantonese songs "The Love of My Life" and "Laughing at the Wind and Cloud".

As the saying goes, the song never leaves the mouth. He has been gone for a long time, not to mention the sudden improvement of the fifth-level singing skills, he must be familiar with it as soon as possible, and achieve whatever he wants as soon as possible.

Yesterday afternoon in the office of the owner of the Internet café, when he recorded the singing with his mobile phone, Niu Er felt that his mastery of timbre and control of the vocal range still had some deficiencies and unproficiency.

Around ten o'clock in the morning, the mobile phone rang.

This was the first call to come in after I bought my phone.

As soon as Niu Er looked at the electric area code, he immediately cracked his mouth and laughed.

The place where these tables and stools are located is the only place near Niu's house where the telephone signal can be unimpeded. Whenever an important guest from the town came over and said that there was a call to answer, Niu's father would arrange for them to smoke and drink tea and fruit here.

The call was really from Yuecheng Yinque Entertainment Company, asking him to go to Yuecheng as soon as possible to see him.

The caller claimed to be Mr. Han's assistant.

Even if Yinque Company didn't call, Niu Er decided to go to Guangdong City to see if there was any difference between it and Guangzhou in the previous life. Let's take a look at the development trend of the most concentrated Cantonese pop songs.

If he can't receive an appointment call from Yinque Company, he is also ready to visit various record entertainment companies in person to recommend himself.

For almost the whole day, Niu Er practiced singing and singing under the walnut tree.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, I set off from home and went straight to the train station. The K-shaped green car at 8 o'clock in the evening arrived at 10 o'clock in the morning of the next day. Scheduling the ride in the evening, Niu Er undoubtedly considers the time utilization.

After getting on the train, from the eyes of the passengers who focused on him, Niu Er realized that he didn't expect to change his clothes.

When Niu Er arrived in Yuecheng, when he walked into the silver-white Silver Bird Building with thirty or forty floors in Yuecheng, he was stopped by the security guard at the door as soon as he entered the door. After Niu Er reported his home and the people he had met, the security guard made another phone call and let him in. And told him to go to the thirty-seventh floor, and when he arrived, someone would receive him.

On the thirty-seventh floor, when the main desk lady saw Niu Er for the first time, her expression changed very wonderfully. Niu Er knew that it was his own clothes, and he was really handsome, so he didn't care.

After only drinking half a cup of tea in the reception room, the assistant of Mr. Han, who was on the phone with Niu Er, came to see Niu Er. After verifying Niu Er's identity, the assistant said that Mr. Han was having an important meeting and would come to see him when the meeting was over.

Niu Er waited until 12:40 at noon, and the lady of the main station had already thrown the empty fast food box into the trash, but she still didn't see Mr. Han coming, Niu Er was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back.

So Niu Er said hello to the lady of the main station and said that he would go downstairs for a meal and come over again.

......

That night, after Han Xiao had dinner with several high-level executives and directors of the Feitian Film and Television Company in Bauhinia Harbor, it was nearly eleven o'clock when he got home. Brewing a cup of tea, lighting a cigarette, and turning on the computer, he suddenly remembered Niu Er's matter and hurriedly called his assistant.

The assistant said that Niu Er came in the morning. At noon, he said he was going out to eat, and then he never came back.
