Chapter 611: The Enemy Is at the Gate, It Is Useless to Escape
Wang Tie connected his mobile phone to the speaker in the office and clicked play.
As a professional in the music industry, Wang Tie knew how terrifying Xu Ye's strength was.
He would not say that Xu Ye had run out of ideas like netizens did.
Just look at Xu Ye's performance at the graduation party of Ancheng University last month. This person obviously still has some stock in his pocket.
If you say that the quality of his new songs has declined, it is possible.
After all, not everyone can guarantee that his creative level will always be at the peak, but if you say that Xu Ye wrote music garbage like "Ma Zou Ri", it is absolutely impossible.
"Alas, I should have made a pot of tea leisurely in my house at this time and listened to Xu Ye's songs."
Wang Tie felt a little regretful.
He and Song Zhengqi were in the same office, and he always felt uncomfortable.
At this time, a voice came from the speaker.
Song Zhengqi asked, "Where are the birds singing in the office?"
Wang Tie reminded, "Mr. Song, this is the sound from the speakers."
Wang Tie cursed in his heart. He really wanted to listen to this song seriously, but was interrupted by Song Zhengqi.
The sound from the speakers continued to come.
The voices of several old men appeared.
Wang Tie was very familiar with this voice. Isn't this the old man playing chess in the park talking?
"It's actually a real sample!" Wang Tie was surprised.
You know, many creators in the entertainment industry have begun to use some high-tech to make music, and all kinds of sounds can be simulated.
But the sound at the beginning of "General" was obviously sampled live in the park.
This kind of realism cannot be imitated by technology.
As a result, at this time, Song Zhengqi said again, "What are you talking about?"
Wang Tie pressed the pause button helplessly and explained, "This should be the sound of those old people playing chess recorded in the park."
Song Zhengqi snorted coldly, "Fancy."
Wang Tie sighed in his heart and clicked play.
When the old man's voice ended, the prelude naturally connected in.
When Wang Tie heard this prelude, his eyes lit up.
He opened his mouth and was about to speak, but he remembered that Song Zhengqi was sitting next to him, and it was just like talking to a cow.
It was really uncomfortable to hear good music but no one could share it.
"I'll invite a few friends to talk about it after I go back." Wang Tie said in his heart.
After the prelude ended, Xu Ye's singing came.
After hearing the singing, Wang Tie was a little surprised.
Because this was actually a rap song.
"A rap song was released first!"
Wang Tie thought of the song "Ma Zou Ri" that was circulating on the Internet today, which was also a rap song.
However, the level of these two songs is completely different.
"The arrow of time~"
"All point to the place where you return in defeat~"
"You will move forward~"
"But you still have to get used to surrender~"
"As it should be~"
"The sixth step is your biggest fatal injury~"
After these lyrics came out, Wang Tie's thighs couldn't help shaking.
At present, these lyrics seem to be talking about playing chess.
But if you just look at the song, there is nothing surprising, just a simple application.
The song continued to sound, still a long rap show by Xu Ye, still telling the process of playing chess.
It was as if he was really playing a game of chess with his opponent.
At this time, Xu Ye sang:
"This is a bloodless battle, only self-esteem will be hurt~"
"The iron rule of success and failure is no different from reality~"
"The old man holding the birdcage stood by and patted my shoulder~"
"I guess he should think the same as me~"
This paragraph of lyrics seemed quite second-year in Wang Tie's opinion.
From playing chess to success and failure, the pen suddenly turned back to the real world.
It was like a middle school boy standing in the park looking at a chess stall, and imagined a big drama in his mind.
"The next chess game was written so cool by Xu Ye, he really deserves to be a movie director." Wang Tie said in his heart.
The melody of the song changed at this moment.
The chorus sounded.
"Look at me, my fingers are relaxed, my eyes are like a dragon~"
"When the enemy is empty, my tactics are endless~"
"I attack like the wind, use a bicycle to enter the palace~"
"Run over your frustrated face~"
"Don't care about me, my fingers are relaxed, my eyes are like a dragon~"
"When the enemy is empty, I shoot left and right~"
"I am full of momentum, and I will use all the artillery and horses~"
"The enemy is at the gate, it's useless to escape~"
When Wang Tie first heard this chorus, he just thought it was awesome, the beat, melody and lyrics were arranged just right, and the rhythm was full.
But the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong.
Halfway through listening, Wang Tie turned his head and glanced at Song Zhengqi.
"Why does this lyric seem to be talking about Mr. Song!"
After Wang Tie had this thought in his mind, it could never disappear.
He thought Xu Ye was talking about playing chess, but in fact Xu Ye was talking about the match between him and Song Zhengqi.
The fight between "Bright Sword" and "War on the Prairie" made Song Zhengqi lose face.
Isn't this the face that ran over your frustrated face.
In "Bright Sword", the cavalry company's attack shocked the world, an Italian cannon frightened the Japanese, and the ratings soared. Isn't it that the cannons and horses are used up, and it's useless to escape?
Listening to this song, Wang Tie seemed to see Xu Ye raising his middle finger to Song Zhengqi and then saying "General!"
Song Zhengqi's face had become a little ugly.
He didn't understand music, but he understood the meaning of words.
The lyrics of this chorus were almost touching his face.
When the interlude ended, the second verse began.
When this verse sounded, the melody was the same as the first, but Wang Tie noticed the difference here.
"It seems that the guzheng was added here."
It was obvious that Xu Ye did not intend to simply repeat the melody, but added something new to the arrangement.
"You must have obsessive-compulsive disorder."
At this time, a harmony was added to the song.
The harmony sang "General~General~".
Wang Tie was a little anxious.
He suddenly found that he couldn't hear many details of this song just by listening to it.
Xu Ye designed many small details in it.
These small details were not simply piled up in the arrangement, but many elements were integrated together to form a special effect.
"Elegant, really elegant!" Wang Tie was surprised in his heart.
Xu Ye's new song actually started to play tricks.
Wang Tie felt happy as if he had discovered a good song, but Song Zhengqi was completely different.
He was just listening to the content of the lyrics.
"In the end, I must be the one who is in charge~"
"You finally gave up resistance, and I looked up at the sunset~"
"You bowed your head and left sadly~"
"Listen to me, victory and defeat are common in the military, you don't have to take it to heart~"
"Because I am only suitable for Wushuang~"
Listening to these lyrics, Song Zhengqi can be sure that this song is definitely talking about him.
This is too appropriate!
"War Flames" finally gave up resistance.
In the end, Xu Ye even comforted him that victory and defeat are common in the military.
Song Zhengqi said angrily: "Don't play it, I don't want to listen!"
Wang Tie quickly paused the music after hearing this.
He cursed a few words in his heart. He was enjoying it, and it was too uncomfortable to pause it.
Song Zhengqi said with displeasure: "Go out!"
Wang Tie responded and hurriedly left the office.
When he returned to his office, he immediately put on his headphones and clicked to continue playing.
The last part of the song is the loop of the chorus, which was looped three times in total.
It was normal the first time, but after the second loop, Wang Tie clearly heard the harmony.
This harmony seemed to be sung with a pinched nose.
"The sun smiled from the cracks in the leaves~"
"Warmed my beautiful dream~"
"Only the thrush in the cage envied the sky~"
"But no one ever understood~"
After the chorus looped for the third time, a new harmony joined in.
"It's three parts, no, it's four parts!" Wang Tie said in surprise.
The triple harmony, one is sung with a pinched nose, one is the "General General General" that appeared before, and the other voice is "Hey".
These layers of sound merged together, making the whole song full of layers.
When the song came to an end, the sampled voice of the park uncle continued to sound.
"Where are you going?"
"Uncle, General!"
"What are you doing?"
The questioning voice of the old man sounded, and the song ended here.
Wang Tie let out a long breath, just like he had just finished a massage at a foot massage parlor.
As a musician, hearing such a song really makes you feel comfortable.
The lyrics of this song can be said to be sharp, and the arrangement is also very skillful, which is rare in Xu Ye's previous songs.
Many of Xu Ye's previous songs are emotional.
To this day, there are still people on the Internet who use "Little Apple" to talk about things, meaning that most of the songs written by Xu Ye are not high-end.
Xu Ye didn't pay attention to it before.
Wang Tie thought Xu Ye was not going to respond, but this song "General" is different.
This song is very high-end.
The song "General" is a song from Jay Chou's album "Seven Miles of Fragrance" released in 2004. There are too many masterpieces in this album, and it seems that the song "General" is not very popular.
The composer is Jay Chou himself, the arranger is Hong Jingyao, and the lyricist is Huang Junlang who wrote "In the Name of the Father".
This song is also first-class among Jay Chou's many rap songs.
Especially the sound sampled by the old man in the park is unique.
"You can try to dig out the score of this song." Wang Tie said in his heart.
The Internet has become lively.
After listening to "General", netizens all keenly felt that the lyrics were meaningful.
"Dean, tell me the truth, is this a song written for Bluebird Entertainment?"
"The lyrics of this song are really pretentious, but I like it!"
"After listening to this song, I feel like I am walking on the road with the wind."
"I thought it was a general, but I didn't expect it to be a general. If you have to say a general, when Sun Desheng shouted that the cavalry company attacked, the sword was set on fire."
Netizens commented one after another.
This song has brought a new wave of popularity to "Sword".
Then, the song "Ma Zou Ri" in the afternoon was also pulled out again by netizens.
"Compared with 'General', 'Ma Zouri' is simply unbearable to listen to. Who wrote this song?"
"The gap between Ma Zouri and General is greater than the gap between me and a dog."
The singer who created "Ma Zou Ri" would definitely not come out at this time. He was just making money from it. The name of the composer and the singer was not his.
What everyone didn't expect was that Xu Ye posted a Weibo.
"I don't know which fan of mine wrote the song "Ma Zou Ri". Thank this fan for his creation. If you have any questions about music, please feel free to ask me at any time."
After this Weibo was posted, public opinion changed direction.
"A song created by a fan? That's possible. The level doesn't look very professional."
"Are all Xu Ye's fans so awesome?"
"Huohuayuan should not be underestimated!"
In the afternoon, Song Zhengqi spent a lot of money to promote the song "Ma Zou Ri". As a result, all the popularity was transferred to Xu Ye's new album.
Song Zhengqi looked at Xu Ye's Weibo and his eyes widened.
"Oh no, I'm a fan!"
