Chapter 343 Two Samples
Luo Xun didn't know that he had been noticed by Pepsi. After he promised Hou Hongliang to write songs for "Nirvana in Fire", he quickly took the time to listen to the related songs that had been created so far, and found that most of them were unfamiliar works. The only familiar song was "Red Blood and Long Yin" by Wang Yanchang in the previous life, which was sung by Huo Jianhua in this life.
In other words, "Red Blood and Long Yin" passed.
Among the remaining original songs, "Old Beauty" and "When the Wind Rises" can be used. If Luo Xun doesn't sing, these two songs will probably not appear again. Besides, these two songs themselves are still very consistent with the plot of the TV series...
Then "create".
It only took one night for Luo Xun to easily complete the lyrics and music of these two songs, but he didn't rush to record them, and didn't even tell anyone. After all, Hou Hongliang had just invited him to write songs not long ago. If he came up with two songs with such a high degree of fit overnight, I'm afraid that the other party would not be able to help but take out the magic mirror. Although the secret of crossing will not be known to anyone, it is better not to be in the limelight.
It was not until half a month later.
Luo Xun told Hou Hongliang that he had written two songs. Even so, Hou Hongliang was quite surprised by his efficiency. He participated in the recording of the two songs with Luo Xun on the same day.
The recording studio was found locally.
On the way to the recording studio, Hou Hongliang praised Luo Xun in various ways: "You wrote the song in two months. It's really fast. I suspect that if you hadn't been an actor, you might have been the second Jay Chou now!"
Luo Xun smiled.
He could also be Jay Chou.
After entering the recording studio and communicating with the music producer in charge, Luo Xun began recording the demo. The first song was "Old Beauty". The original version of this song was sung by a female voice in the previous life, but there was also a male version. Luo Xun thought that he could sing it, so he did not suggest finding a female singer to sing it, but sang it himself:
"The west wind crosses the cold mountain rain at night
The country and home are vaguely in the broken dream
I miss you more than I can see
Parting is hard to bear
..."
Behind the heavy soundproof glass, Hou Hongliang's face gradually changed as he listened to the demo sung by Luo Xun.
Although he praised Luo Xun's efficiency on the way here, Hou Hongliang actually did not have too many expectations for the two songs written by Luo Xun in half a month. In his opinion, the focus is not on the songs, but on Luo Xun's fame. As long as Luo Xun is willing to sing, the songs under Luo Xun's banner will be posted online, which will naturally achieve the purpose of promoting the TV series
Getting the wool.
But at this moment, listening to the song coming from the headphones, a clear voice sounded in his heart
This is the feeling!
Hou Hongliang, who is familiar with the plot of "Nirvana in Fire", is very satisfied in his heart, that is... Thinking of you... The lyrics of this song... Should we find a female singer to sing it?
...
The demo is very short, and Luo Xun stopped after singing the first chorus. Although he remembered this song, it was only a rough memory. There are many details that need to be slowly considered, and it is basically difficult to make it 100% the same as in the previous life.
Outside the glass.
The staff of the recording studio and Hou Hongliang were applauding vigorously. The former was more due to Luo Xun's identity as a big star appearing here, which can bring a certain celebrity effect to the recording studio, and the latter was surprised by the quality of "Old Beauty"!
"Any suggestions?"
Although Luo Xun knew that Hou Hongliang knew nothing about music, he still said something politely. Unexpectedly, Hou Hongliang actually had a suggestion: "Have you considered finding a female singer to sing this with you..."
"Old Beauty."
"Yes, Old Beauty, of course, you wrote the song, so you have the final say. I just think that the mood of the song may be more appropriate if it is interpreted by a combination of men and women!"
Okay.
In fact, Hou Hongliang wanted to say that it would be good if this song was completely sung by a female voice, but this is unrealistic. Luo Xun is not a saint. How could he be willing to give up such an excellent song after writing it? So it is more realistic to be tactful and find a female singer to sing with you.
"No problem."
Luo Xun smiled.
In fact, when he sang "I miss you more than I can see you", he also felt strange. This line of lyrics is from a female perspective. In this case, it is indeed no problem to find a female singer to sing with him.
"As long as you agree!"
Hou Hongliang was overjoyed. He didn't expect to get something out of this. "Actually, there's no need to go through so much trouble. I think it's OK to just let Liu Tao sing with you. I just don't know how good she is at singing..."
"It should be no problem."
Luo Xun replied with a smile. In the previous life, "Nirvana in Fire" chose Liu Tao's version, which means that she can still sing. In fact, many actors have also lit up their musical talents.
"Okay."
Hou Hongliang nodded repeatedly and couldn't help but walked out the door. Luo Xun shouted helplessly: "Hou Zhipian, there's another song here. In addition, we're just recording a simple demo today, and we'll record it again in full when we return to Yanjing."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Hou Hongliang slapped his forehead. His mind was full of surprises brought by "Old Beauty", and he almost forgot about it.
Luo Xun returned to the recording studio.
He gestured to the recording teacher outside the glass, and the prelude of the second song sounded. This was "When the Wind Rises", which was sung by Brother Hu in the previous life.
A deep voice.
"Changes have happened, the wind and clouds are rolling, and the troubled times have stirred up troubles; the blood is still flowing, who is thinking about it, and the fire is clear and peaceful; the sword of wisdom, borrowing the beauty of farewell, has no intention of continuing for more years; the emperor is majestic, the heroism is still there, and the ice heart swears to break the long night sky."
Wear headphones.
Hou Hongliang was still thinking about "Beautiful Beauty", but his mind was suddenly shocked by a piece of emotional singing: "In the past, the red bow hung on the wall, the journey was in sight, the armor was still cold, the bright eyes were in the heart, the green mountains could not hide, the country Picturesque is what I mean..."
Another song by Luo Xun!
Hou Hongliang's eyes widened again!
This song... doesn't seem to be bad either...
No, no, no, to be precise, the overall atmosphere of this song, combined with the TV series, is no worse than "The Beauty of the Past", but the former is biased towards a female perspective, while this song is completely from a male perspective, and Luo Xun's voice can be heard very well. A good interpretation of the atmosphere!
"alright."
Demos are very simple, sometimes just a few lyrics are considered a demo. Luo Xun stopped after singing the first verse, walked out of the recording studio, and said to Hou Hongliang: "These two songs should be enough."
"..."
"Producer Hou?"
"Enough, enough, enough!"
Hou Hongliang came back to his senses and said "enough" three times in a row. Then he looked around Luo Xun carefully up and down, and said sincerely: "I suspect that if you were not an actor at first, you might be the second one now." Jay Chou!”
"You said this before."
"I didn't believe what I said before."
Hou Hongliang subconsciously spoke the truth, then he looked panicked and quickly said, "Hey, hey, hey, I'm sincere this time, completely from the heart! These two songs of yours are really great, and they are completely in line with my feelings about The songs related to the drama should be expected!”
Luo Xun: "..."
