Chapter 358 Be Your Pride
Future Entertainment Company, Recording Studio.
There are several people in the room, and Ma Qing is also listed among them.
The purpose of his coming here today is to listen to the effect of Chen Yuyan's audition, because this morning, Chen Yuyan reported to him that she had got several good songs in hand.
Ma Qing immediately thought of Lu Hong. Two days ago, he asked Lu Hong to find the song, but he didn't expect him to find it in such a short time. Unfortunately, Lu Hong was not present today.
From the beginning of the audition, the room was quiet.
Ma Qing doesn't know music, but he can tell whether it sounds good or not. At first, it was only Chen Yuyan who hummed a few times, but when the simple arrangement came out, he listened to two or three songs, and he was dumbfounded.
Is this music?
This is the real music!
Not to mention Ma Qing, even the teacher who is also a music producer and arranger is stunned. As Chen Yuyan's recent trainer in the sound range, he is a professional and senior music teacher in the industry hired by Ma Qing at a high price. His professional level is beyond doubt, but when he listened to a few simple songs, he also went crazy.
My eyes were bright and red, and my lips trembled, and then my whole body trembled. The arranger couldn't help roaring with excitement: "Oh, my God, after decades of music, I know what real music is today!"
With his roar, even Chen Yuyan, who had a headset, woke up. She took off her headset and stood up with a blank face. Looking at her usually serious and rigorous teacher, she was a little confused.
"Mr. Li, what's wrong with you?" Chen Yuyan asked doubtfully. She turned her head and found that the people who helped with the soundtrack also looked stupid. She suddenly realized what was going on and couldn't help but be happy.
Looking at the music score on the music stand, Chen Yuyan is a little proud.
"Yu Yan, say, who gave you these songs? Come on, who are they!" Mr. Li blushed with excitement and ran to Chen Yuyan, a little irritable.
"This..." Chen Yuyan hesitated and remembered that Lu Hong said that he could not reveal the secret. Even if she admired the teacher, she still had some scruples.
"Say it!" Mr. Li roared.
"I..." Chen Yuyan was even more embarrassed.
Ma Qing beside him couldn't stand it. Anyway, Chen Yuyan was also the boss's woman. He had the need to protect the boss's wife. He stood up and intervened between the two: "Mr. Li, what's wrong with you? Take your time if you have something to say. Don't scare Yuyan. Come on, calm down and speak slowly."
Only then did Mr. Li find his gaffe. He took a deep breath and said with a wry smile, "Yu Yan, I'm sorry, I'm too excited. I just... I really want to know who wrote these songs. I want to meet this person..."
"Mr. Li, are these songs very good?" Ma Qing was overjoyed, "That is to say, Yu Yan's album can be released?"
"Good?" Mr. Li shook his head.
Ma Qing was shocked and a little disappointed: "It still doesn't work?"
"All right?" Mr. Li shook his head again, and then nodded and roared, "It's not good, it's not good, it's not good to speak!" It's so good that I can't describe it! These songs... can't be written by people!" The more he talked, the more excited he became. He grabbed Ma Qing's fat hand and grabbed him so much that he was in pain.
"Mr. Li, if you have something to say, say it well..." Ma Qing finally broke away from his hand. Only then did he recall it, and his eyes lit up a lot. "Mr. Li, can these songs enter your eyes, can you release an album?"
"Of course!" Mr. Li almost spit and stared at Ma Qing, "Mr. Ma, you don't understand music. You don't know how difficult it is to write a classic song! However, I saw six or seven songs at once, all of which are classics! Do you think I can't be excited?"
"Classic, how classic is it?" Ma Qing looked at Mr. Li and Chen Yuyan.
"Classic..." Mr. Li waved his hand and wanted to say why, but his mouth was wide open but he couldn't speak. He paused there, looking like he was thinking hard. Finally, he sighed and shook his head, "You don't understand, Mr. Ma, you don't understand."
Ma Qing was so angry that his mouth was crooked. Mom's child, if you don't say I don't know, I don't know, and I don't know how to bully me, right?
Mr. Li half closed his eyes, as if he was recalling something, and muttered, "Not to mention anything else, let's say that "Galaxy Song" is simply the sound of nature, which can be created by human beings. It is like a song about the Milky Way's starry sky, mysterious, vast, dangerous, and full of exploration surnames. If we are immersed in the meaning of this song, we human beings will feel that we are very small and not worth talking about, but it will give us the motivation to explore the mysteries of the universe! This is the charm of the Galactic Sonata. Oh, my God, how can there be such a song in this world! Its author is like seeing the incredible of the galactic universe with his own eyes, so he made this amazing and wonderful song!"
Mr. Li opened his eyes and looked straight at Chen Yuyan, pleading: "Yuyan, tell me who the author is. I want to see this author. He is really incredible! In addition to "Galaxy Sonata", "Starry Sky", "Running" and other songs are rare classics! The person who made these songs must be a genius, a rare genius in the world. If I can't take a look, I won't close my eyes!"
Ma Qing's chin is about to be dislocated. Can Nima be more exaggerated?
Chen Yuyan looked embarrassed and sighed: "Mr. Li, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but the person who sang to me. He doesn't want to be famous, and he doesn't want others to know his name. You see, the song score given to us is written with the word 'nameless' on both the songwriter, which is his pseudonym and also means that he doesn't want to be famous.
Mr. Li's eyes darked: "I promise that I just want to see him once, and I will never tell others. Isn't this okay?"
"This..." Chen Yuyan smiled bitterly, "I want to ask him what he means first."
"It should be, it should be." Mr. Li nodded repeatedly, "I respect him, Yu Yan, please help me, you must let me see him. I... These six songs are definitely the most classic and incredible songs I have ever seen. If they can be made perfectly, I will die without regrets! I'm afraid... I'm afraid that I'm not capable of making up the music to accompany these songs and ruining these songs. I'm a sinner through the ages!"
Ma Qing was a little speechless. Mr. Li became more and more exaggerated. He couldn't help saying to Chen Yuyan, "Yuyan, just try your best to help and ask that person what he means. We can also listen to the opinions of the author when we make albums."
"Yes, yes, listen to his opinion. He is a master and must have his own unique opinion!" Mr. Li echoed one after another.
Chen Yuyan smiled bitterly. She didn't even know who the author was. Lu Hong only said that he was his genius hacker friends, but he didn't say who he was. Not to mention the people in front of her, even she had never seen a real person.
Last night, Lu Hong contacted those people on the Internet and asked people to pass on these six songs. After all, Chen Yuyan was born in a professional class, and there was absolutely no problem with humming the music score. Hearing this, she was also dumbfounded. She could hear that these songs were as classics as Lu Hong said.
But after all, she didn't have any experience and didn't dare to comment randomly, so she took the song back to the company early the next morning and asked Ma Qing and the arrangement teacher to listen to the audition room and make a conclusion.
The conclusion has come out. Even Mr. Li, a senior in the industry, can't evaluate it. The quality must be unquestionable.
The only question is Ma Qing. He directly said his worries: "Mr. Li, these songs don't seem to be love songs. There is no word of love, and there is no word of love. Can they be popular?"
"What do you know!" Mr. Li stared at Ma Qing and criticized rudely, "Yes, these are not love songs, but they all have love!" It is not an ordinary love, but a great love for nature and people! Love is boundless! Love is priceless! People who are thinking about how to make money don't understand the beauty of art!"
Ma Qing smiled and said, "So... Can this song sell well? Is it suitable for Yuyan to sing?
"Sales volume?" Mr. Li sneered and glanced at Ma Qing, "Wait a minute. When I make this album, I will let people in the world know what music is!" I will make everyone can't help but pay for one to collect, and I will make them feel tired of listening to it!"
"That's good, that's good." Ma Qing smiled.
"As for singing..." Mr. Li glanced at Chen Yuyan, "Yuyan, since the other party gave you the song, of course, I hope you can sing it. Although you don't have much experience and your singing skills are not perfect, if you revise it slowly, you should be able to explain the artistic conception of these songs. After all, you have a wide range.
Chen Yuyan smiled and said, "Then please, Mr. Li."
Mr. Li nodded and lowered his head to meditate: "How to make this up? The theme of the galactic song is mysterious, and you have to sing it with an ethereal voice. As for "Running", it is an eulogium of sports to life, which should be sung powerfully; and "Starry Sky", "Blue Sky" and so on, which are praise for the beauty of nature, and the sigh can be light and enthusiastic. I have to think about it carefully. I must make these songs well. Don't ruin them in my hands, or I will be redeemed..."
Ma Qing and Chen Yuyan looked at each other in front of each other, but they can also understand the addiction of this person who has worked for art all his life.
"Yu Yan, did Lu Hong help you find these songs?" Ma Qing secretly asked Chen Yuyan.
Chen Yuyan nodded and smiled, "He said it was given by his friend."
Ma Qing curled his lips. He-milk-milk-milk-when did Lu Hong get to the art line again? Can it be more exaggerated?
"Yuyan, do you think you are suitable for singing these songs?" Ma Qing asked again.
Chen Yuyan was unhappy: "What do you mean?"
Ma Qing rubbed his hands: "These songs are good, but they are not love songs. I don't know if those young people like them or not. I think these songs have a bit of the main theme. If you are positioned as a singer at that level, it will be difficult to transform in the future. Otherwise, ask Lu Hong to ask others to make a few love songs and embed them into an album.
"No way!" It was not Chen Yuyan who refused, but Mr. Li, who heard Ma Qing's advice. He stared at Ma Qing fiercely, "You are a bad idea. Ordinary love songs are embedded in, which simply stains these songs! These songs are all eulogisms of life and a kind of passionate love. I dare say that men, women and children will like these songs.
"Really?" Ma Qing was a little suspicious.
Mr. Li lost his temper: "If you don't believe me, what do you invite me to do?"
"It's not that I don't believe you." Ma Qing panicked, "Mr. Li, don't mind. I really don't understand art. I'm just worried that Yuyan's future path will be affected."
Mr. Li looked at Chen Yuyan and turned back and said, "Don't worry, although these songs have the words of love, they reveal the meaning of love everywhere. That's a kind of love beyond love songs. As long as Yu Yan sings well, she will definitely establish her position in the music world with these songs. In the future, everyone can accept any songs she sings.
"Static status?" Ma Qing was a little nervous, "What status?"
"The status of a master!" Mr. Li said loudly, waving his hands, "Think about it, what is the status when everyone is immersed in these songs, listening to the singer's voice, and becoming her loyal listener from then on?"
"Everyone?" Ma Qing was surprised and happy.
"Yes, everyone!" Mr. Li refocused, "As long as people who have heard these songs, they will definitely be addicted, just like me!"
"Why don't I feel this way?" Ma Qing was suspicious.
Mr. Li said angrily, "That's because we haven't arranged the music or done any post-processing. All you hear is some simple instrument percussion and oratorio, and you haven't achieved that effect yet. However, to be honest, did you feel that you were appreciating a kind of beauty and traveling in a wonderful sea of art?
Ma Qing thought for a moment, nodded and said, "It seems."
Mr. Li smiled: "You, who are full of copper smell, think it's a kind of beauty. What do you think those who calm down and listen?"
Ma Qing suffered another big blow and touched his nose without saying anything.
Chen Yuyan smiled and said, "Mr. Li, what should we do?"
Mr. Li meditated and said, "I dare not do these songs alone. I'm afraid of ruining these songs. I'm going to think of a few more friends to help me, my friends in the industry."
Ma Qing was shocked: "Mr. Li, the cost will be high in this way."
Mr. Li glanced at him and said, "Can we serve you for free!"
"Free?" Ma Qing smiled and said, "That's good. Since Mr. Li has such a connection, I'm so disrespectful."
Mr. Li snorted.
"Mr. Li, is this not good?" Chen Yuyan is a little worried.
Mr. Li smiled with a relieved smile: "Yuyan, don't worry, as long as I show them one of the songs, these people will be happy to come over, not to mention free, even if they collect money, they will come over. What about you? Adjust your state these days, and we will enter the recording stage at any time. Yuyan, you are very talented. Don't let us down.
"No way!" Chen Yuyan said that it is her ideal to become a star. Now that her ideal is about to be realized, she doesn't want to fail in the end.
Mr. Li thought for a moment and said to Ma Qing, "Mr. Ma, I think the previous strategy of Yuyan's packaging needs to be changed."
"Regitive?" Ma Qing was surprised, "What to change? How to change it?"
"Before, you were worried about poor grades. In order to protect Yuyan, you plan to use the company's anti-theft system to prevent theft and let Yuyan debut as an online singer. First, you can save costs, and second, it can be convenient to make it. However, I don't think it's necessary now. Let's just take out the physical CD.
"Exit the entity!" Ma Qing frowned, "Mr. Li, are you really so confident?"
Mr. Li smiled gently: "There were no good songs before, so I had to make other preparations. But..." He knocked on the score in his hand, and his eyes were shining. "It's not necessary now, because we have good songs! And it's still an indescribably good song. With them, not to mention people, even if you hum out, you can sell it!"
Ma Qing is still a little hesitant: "What if you make a mistake in your estimation?"
"You have to believe in my professionalism!" Mr. Li said heavily.
"This..." Ma Qing turned to ask Chen Yuyan, "What do you mean?"
"I..." Chen Yuyan is also quite embarrassed.
Mr. Li said again, "Mr. Ma, I assure you that after the CD is released, you are not worried about how to sell it, but how to expand production to meet the market demand."
Ma Qing's eyes flashed and his heart was a little confused.
How to choose, this is a question.
He has never seen how to expand production before the album is released. Therefore, the impact on his psychology can be imagined.
Do you want to fight or not?
If you don't fight, you can be more safe according to the previous plan.
If you fight, even if you take your time and don't take a big step, it will change the overall plan, and many things will change accordingly. In this way, there are many things involved, maybe success or failure. Success is good. Failure wastes a lot of resources and is a sinner of the company.
For a moment, he was also difficult to choose, and he was not sure.
He can call people from the company to discuss it, but he also knows that some people will agree and some people will oppose it. It's more tiring, and it's better for him to decide alone.
"Yu Yan, do you want to network first or entity first?" Ma Qing handed over the decision to Chen Yuyan. Anyway, the other party is also the boss's wife. Lu Hong is in support of the event!
"I..." Chen Yuyan couldn't make up her mind for a moment.
If she wants to do it, of course, she hopes to have an entity. After all, she debuts as an online singer. Even if her grades are good, she feels unhappy. She feels that it is a crooked way, not orthodox, and is not recognized by the mainstream.
But the benefits involved are too great, and it is even more difficult for her to rule.
How to choose?
After hesitating for a long time, Chen Yuyan suddenly wanted to ask Lu Hong - with the idea, she stopped!
What does Lu Hong mean?
What is the original intention of Lu Hongkai's entertainment company? Isn't it just for her dream? One billion yuan, if you say investment, it's like throwing it in, and then it's just like throwing it in.
Yes, she can squander this company casually, and Lu Hong can also toss with her.
So--"Ma Qing, let's get out of the entity." Chen Yuyan said firmly with a calm face, "I believe in Mr. Li and my own ability."
"Good, just the entity!" Ma Qing clapped his hands. Since Chen Yuyan dared to fight, what was he afraid of?
Mr. Li looked between the two and thought about it. He nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Now that we have decided, let's work hard in the next three months. Believe me, this is a classic and desperate album. Achievements? I've never worried about it!"
Chen Yuyan nodded silently, turned her head and looked out of the window, and thought to herself: Lu Hong, thank you for your arrangement. I'm starting to go on my way. It won't be long before I will definitely become your pride!
