Chapter 82 This Mountain Is Gradually Green (Part 1)

After receiving the sincere thanks and tears from the five girls, as well as the sincere thanks from Li Jinlong, Li Qian sent off the Huage Records team, which means that he officially ended his first job as a producer. Work.

The girls from Wuxingwusu and the producer Li Jinlong, etc., after they go back, of course there is still a series of work to do, the first must be to take photos of the album cover, inner pages and promotional posters. Moreover, it is said that Huage Records still insists on shooting two MVs for Wuxingwusu album before releasing the album and selling them together. If they really want to shoot, this will definitely require a lot of work.

Then, considering that they are still continuing to be youthful, the beautiful and sexy dance is definitely a plus point. Now, although the style of Wu Xing Wu Su's new album has changed drastically, there are still "Broken Love Front Alliance" and "Chong! rush! rush! "These two songs are obviously dance songs. The latter has already been danced, but the former still needs to be choreographed. In addition to considering the change of style, Huage Records must ask the image designer to redesign the image of the five girls according to the new style of the new album, including hairstyles, clothes and so on.

In addition, although Li Qian has strived for perfection during the recording stage, post-processing is still indispensable for an album to be released, and this obviously requires Li Jinlong to keep an eye on it... In short, the distance from this There is still a lot of work to be done for the official release of the album. According to Li Jinlong's estimation, it will be around mid-December when the promotion of the album starts.

Therefore, they will definitely not be able to stay idle in the future, and what they need is to be busy with work.

But Li Qian can already relax.

In the past two months, although his daily spare time was completely occupied by the new album of Wu Xing Wu Su, fortunately, his grades did not drop too much, even because his Russian grades have been gradually declining recently. Therefore, although the total score of the monthly exam in September dropped slightly, it was pulled back again in October... In short, it was still within the acceptable range of Li's father and mother.

And after the work of producing the new album of Wu Xing Wu Su is over, Li Qian naturally has a lot more time to study, so although the students in the class have really worked hard recently, Li Qian Qian felt that in the monthly exam in November, his ranking and score probably wouldn't drop drastically.

In this way, it is enough.

Because he is an art student, as long as he passes the art test and obtains the admission permit from the art school, then with his current homework background, as long as he doesn't never read books, there should be no possibility of failing .

Therefore, in addition to class, although Li Qian strictly requires himself to spend a certain amount of time every day to review homework in his spare time, in fact, he is not as strict as the senior year he experienced in his previous life. So, in fact, he still has a lot of time to listen to music, watch movies, and watch videos.

Of course, it also includes drinking tea and chatting with Cao Zhan, Yu Bojun, and Wang Huaiyu.

As early as mid-October, Yu Bojun's new film project had already been approved, and this time he still wanted to make an urban romance film - with low investment, hardly any extra props, no special sets at all, and even You don't need to leave Jinan Mansion to go to other places to take some scenes. You can imagine that for Yu Bojun, who makes movies purely to fill the gap in his own theater chain, this kind of urban romance movie is simply the best choice.

And not to mention... This kind of movie allows him to choose the heroine completely by his own temperament, make the heroine popular, and then fall in love with others!

Therefore, when discussing the script, Cao Zhan and Li Qian unanimously called Yu Bojun's new film project - the Girl Picking Project.

When the new movie project was approved, Yu Bojun only had a story outline. According to the usual practice, Cao Zhan would write the script for him, but this time it was different from previous years. It was already free, and then he joined in. Although he was only responsible for helping out ideas and suggestions, with some new ideas of his, Cao Zhan wrote this book very fast this time, even though the previous The already written script was overturned and rewritten by him, and it took only ten days until the entire script was finalized.

Because the new script made a lot of references to Li Qian's suggestions, when the last three people held back their names together, Cao Zhan and Yu Bojun finally agreed to adopt Li Qian's suggestions, and the new film was called "Picking Girls"!

Of course, in the end Li Qian declined to sign the screenwriter. Although he provided a lot of suggestions and even determined the theme and general idea of ​​the whole movie to a certain extent, this script is undoubtedly written by Cao Zhan. The theme of the work is a bit black and humorous, but if you look carefully, the lines between the lines are full of Cao Zhan's literary and youthful taste!

Li Qian called this "not Wenqing uncomfortable ski"!

In late November, when the script was finalized, Yu Bojun went to work on the actors and film crew, while Li Qian, under the leadership of Cao Zhan, bought a few apprentice gifts and came to Wang Huaiyu's house.

Although they don't know how to do those solemn apprenticeship ceremonies, and even Li Qian can't even call a "teacher", but everyone is a mature old Jianghu, and the little bit of affection between each other is revealed at one point.

Therefore, Li Qian began to set aside the entire Saturday every week to learn how to play the suona from Wang Huaiyu. Although he didn't say the word "teacher" on his lips, the two still became friends with each other, but there were subtle differences between them. Li Qian still insisted on treating him with respect as a teacher.

And then, on the last day of November, November 30th, He Runqing's latest single "Half Husha" was released.

As early as a week before the official release of this single, Li Qian had already received a lot of CDs and tapes of this single through Cao Zhan's transfer, and listened to it carefully.

To be honest, Li Qian still admires the original singing of this song. He expresses the main theme of this song completely and fully, and describes in a more beautiful way the people in the world of mortals. A love affair, although slightly sad, has an indescribable Zen-like indifference... On the contrary, it is beautiful.

And obviously, the singing skills of He Runqing, the sweet song queen who stands at the pinnacle of the domestic music scene in this time and space, and her ability to understand and grasp this song are enough to kill the original singer in seconds.

When he first wrote this song, Li Qian attached his own re-arrangement. Of course, the theme style has not changed fundamentally from the original, and even mainly used those few classical instruments, but he The arrangement of the song no longer focuses on the word "indifferent", that is, to some extent weakens the "Zen" of the song, but tries its best to make it more popular-although the other party invited The way of singing makes people feel a little unhappy, but the song is given out, the signature is his own, and it is his own work. Of course, Li Qian still hopes that it can achieve better results.

And after He Runqing got the song, he was obviously very satisfied with the arrangement. The final version released was almost exactly the version of the arrangement that Li Qian made for her, and there were almost no changes in it.

Therefore, under this new arrangement that is more popular and weakens the "Zen", He Runqing played very calmly. In her sweet and clear voice, there was a touch of childish playfulness. The light Xiaoling's work is full of charm. From Li Qian's subjective experience, at least seven or eight out of ten men can listen to this song!

That's right, crispy!

He Runqing's voice, singing skills, and style, coupled with this very Chinese and Zen-like work, coupled with Li Qian's new arrangement that is deliberately more popular, finally presents this work, when you go It's just pure enjoyment when you listen to it! It can make you feel chilly all over, and you can't wait to replay it over and over again, and then you sink into the sofa, lazily not wanting to move, just thinking of those beautiful and wonderful indifferent feelings in your heart.

For He Runqing's singing skills, Li Qian gave twelve praises!

Therefore, Li Qian is very concerned about what kind of achievements this song can achieve after it is released.

In fact, through observation in the past six months after coming to this time and space, including the songs he listened to, including the sales data of many records collected recently, including the understanding of media such as radio stations, TV stations, newspapers, magazines, etc., and even Through Yu Bojun's understanding of a lot of film data, Li Qian has already begun to have a preliminary understanding and judgment of the current time-space domestic entertainment market.

As far as the music market and the record market are concerned, since the country began to deregulate this market in the mid-1970s, the country has experienced several waves of relatively large-scale market explosions. However, if you study carefully, you will find that, in fact, In the past few years, whether it is rock, country, or folk songs, there have always been waves of explosions.

Among them, of course, there is a small music category that always needs a certain amount of accumulation before it explodes. After all, for contemporary music, for China, every step is exploration, and there are not many musicians. Accumulation, of course, is impossible to have any brilliance. However, after careful analysis, Li Qian believes that there is another reason that cannot be ignored and is more important, that is: the lack of overall economic strength!

In short, because the economy is not developed enough, and because the common people do not have so much money in their pockets, the common people's consumption demand for music, a special commodity, is actually not too strong.

Carefully analyzing the domestic record market in the past few years, whether it is the big hit of Flying Band, the sudden rise of Liu Mingliang, or the overnight success of Zhen Zhen, what they sell is purely the song itself.

Therefore, even though they are already at the top of the domestic pop music scene, their record sales are, without exception, the album that made them truly famous. Liu Mingliang, Zhao Xinfu, Zhen Zhen, or Hu Yang, Zhang Chang, He Runqing, etc., almost all of them, once their first or second albums are sold out, unless they come up with good songs that are popular all over the country again, they will not , their album sales are in a steady decline.

That is to say, if you sing a song well and become popular, everyone is willing to pay for a tape of you and listen to it, but they will not really like you as a singer, and will not follow you from then on. Listen to your album!

Simply put, there is no inertial consumption.

As we all know, the sequels of blockbuster movies are often money-making artifacts, and the second album after a blockbuster album often follows this principle-but in the past two decades, the situation of the domestic music scene has been almost ten thousand. In all likelihood, this principle has been abandoned.

In the final analysis, it was because at that time everyone had no extra money to chase stars. So your songs must be really good and popular, so that people will buy them and collect them at home.

But in recent years, things seem to have changed.

First of all, of course, everyone can feel that the domestic economic situation is getting better year by year. Those occupations that used to be advantageous, such as teachers, have obviously no advantage in their income. Ordinary people, such as Qi Jie who resigned from her job, her income from selling cosmetics is more than three times what she earned when she was a teacher, and it is said that the income of the girls at their counter can also reach It looks like more than two thousand a month. As a senior teacher, Li's father's monthly salary is only in the early 2000s. A new teacher like Qi Jie, who has just joined the job for a year or two, is said to have earned a month's salary in the early 1000s. It is generally believed that practitioners of the profession of teachers with high income and stable income can no longer keep up with the income of an ordinary little girl selling cosmetics!

Although this example is not absolute, it can be seen from the inside... The increase in salesperson's income comes from the commission. The reason why the commission is large is because they sell more and sell more things. Of course, it proves that there are more people who buy things and more people who buy things... Doesn't it just prove that everyone's spending power is steadily increasing?

In fact, after the past twenty years of market cultivation, and with the rapid economic development in China, ordinary people are generally getting richer and richer, so Li Qian feels that in the era of the explosion of sales in the entire domestic music scene, It seemed to be right in front of us—although, even Liao Liao's overnight popularity still couldn't prove his point.

However, some obvious examples are that in the domestic music scene in recent years, there have been more and more female singers who have won platinum records, and more male singers who have won platinum records. Also, Liu Mingliang's debut At that time, he was popular all over the world, but which one was his best-selling album? ...It turned out to be the album he released in 1992!

Therefore, Li Qian firmly believed that his judgment was not wrong.

The domestic music market, and even by extension, the domestic entertainment market is about to usher in an overall expansion and explosion!

Of course, the explosion of the overall market may not necessarily be passed on to some niche genres that are currently in decline. For example, the good results and good reputation of "Unfinished Love" can really represent that domestic audiences like Li Qianna very much. Is this a new type of Chinese style work that came out?

not necessarily!

Therefore, the single "Half Husha" will be a good touchstone.
