Entertainment from Divorce

Chapter 1288 Single

Brilliant Entertainment, Music Division.

A recording studio is playing the accompaniment of "My Secret".

"The distance between us is sometimes far and sometimes close. You are not by my side, but I feel very close to you."

"Stop, stop for a moment."

Deng Xia Ran took off his headphones, hung them around his neck, frowned, and asked, "Teacher Jie, why do I feel like there's still something wrong?"

This song has been recorded countless times, but she always feels that there is no feeling when singing it.

"Could it be because of the wrong feelings?"

Teacher Xie also didn't know where the problem occurred.

Deng Xia Ran looked at the A4 paper in front of him, which was filled with other things besides the lyrics.

In order to be able to sing better, she has done her homework.

But after singing it, she herself was not satisfied.

Not to mention Tan Yue.

The agent at the side suggested: "Should we call Mr. Wei to ask him?"

After all, it was Wei Yu who gave me this song.

And Wei Yu is also the director of the music department.

Deng Xia Ran hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay."

"You look at the songs first, I'll go now." The agent trotted out of the recording studio and came to Wei Yu's office.

"Boss Wei, Xia Ran has some problems with the song, and I want you to come over and give some guidance."

“Is she in the studio?”

"Correct."

"Let's go." Wei Yu stood up directly.

Although I still have documents to process, this song is too important.

There must not be any mistakes and no room for error.

The agent took two quick steps and led the way.

The two of them walked quickly to the recording studio.

The agent knocked on the door first, opened it and said, "Mr. Wei is here."

Wei Yu walked into the office and said directly: "Sing it first, let me listen."

The accompaniment of "My Secret" sounded again, and Deng Xia Ran sang along.

The song ended quickly.

Deng Xiaran was the first to speak: "Mr. Wei, I have been trying and changing my singing style and emotions. But I haven't found the feeling in this period of time, and it sounds a bit dry after singing."

Years ago, Wei Yu had already given this song to Deng Xia Ran, and told her to practice it repeatedly and officially record it after the new year.

Wei Yu nodded and said, "I felt the same way when I heard it. It's very different from what I remembered."

When he got the song and looked at the lyrics, a picture appeared in his mind.

But after listening to Deng Xia Ran's singing, I didn't feel anything at all.

"Old Jie, what do you think?"

Wei Yu looked to the side and asked.

Teacher Xie shook his head.

Wei Yu said, "You should sing it the same way as before, adjust your mood and sing it again."

He remembered that Tan Yue had said that Deng Xiaran's singing style had great potential for development, and he must continue to sing in his original style.

"Okay." Deng Xia Ran nodded heavily.

The accompaniment started again.

As the song ended, the studio fell into a brief silence.

Wei Yu thought about it seriously, and then said, "Xia Ran, come with me to the president's office."

"CEO's Office?"

"Yes." Wei Yu said, "Come with me to find Mr. Tan."

Tan Yue said that Deng Xia Ran could go to him if she encountered any problems with this song.

After all, Tan Yue is the creator of this song.

No one knows better than him how to sing the flavor of it better.

"it is good."

Deng Xia Ran took off her headphones and suddenly felt her heart beating faster.

Normally, she had no chance to find Tan Yue directly.

Deng Xia Ran followed behind, rubbing his fingers nervously. He was not so nervous even when singing on the big stage.

The two of them came to the president's office, and Wei Yu asked, "Secretary Chen, is President Tan in the office?"

"exist."

"Thank you." Wei Yu raised his hand and knocked on the door gently.

"Come in."

Wei Yu opened the door and said, "Mr. Tan, Deng Xiaran is here. She has some problems with the song and wants to consult you."

"No problem, come in."

"Let's go." Wei Yu took the lead and walked into the office.

Deng Xiaran followed closely behind and hurriedly greeted him: "Mr. Tan."

"Please sit down." Tan Yue asked, "What's the problem?"

Deng Xia Ran first explained in detail the problems he encountered during the singing.

Only when you find the problem can you solve it.

She had nothing to hide.

Tan Yue continued, "Well, you should sing it a cappella first, so that we can better prescribe the right medicine for your condition."

"Okay." Deng Xia Ran took a deep breath, first relieved the tension in his heart, and after finding the state, he began to hum.

Tan Yue didn't say anything to interrupt and listened carefully.

After the song was finished, Deng Xia Ran looked at Tan Yue somewhat stiffly.

Besides being nervous, she felt a little stupid.

It's such a good song, but no matter how I sing it, I can never achieve the ideal effect.

"Your analysis is correct. First of all, you should carefully feel the meaning of this song." Tan Yue asked, "You should have someone you like, right?"

Deng Xia Ran nodded.

In fact, this song doesn’t have any particularly profound meaning. It’s just written for the person I like.

"Before singing, you can think about the person you have a crush on. This is an emotional expression."

Deng Xia Ran's singing sounded a bit "dry" due to insufficient emotional expression.

Tan Yue continued, "No matter what song it is, if you want the audience to feel the emotions conveyed by the song, you must invest more emotion and integrate your inner emotions with the music. Only when you invest more emotion, the emotional ups and downs of the song will be more obvious."

Deng Xia Ran listened to Tan Yue's suggestion and thought about it seriously.

In recent years, she has been wanting to make a breakthrough, so she began to try to change her singing style.

It is precisely this point that neglects the expression of emotions.

Then Tan Yue began to carefully analyze the pronunciation, pitch and emotional control of each note she played.

"Do you have any other questions?"

"Nothing."

Tan Yue nodded and said, "If you encounter any problems later, you can still come to me at any time."

"Thank you, Mr. Tan." Deng Xia Ran prayed that there would be no more problems.

She didn't want to keep bothering Tan Yue.

Tan Yue said: "I just heard you singing a cappella, and the singing style is a little different from the previous songs. Are you trying other singing styles?"

"Yes." Then Deng Xia Ran explained why he wanted to change his singing style.

"You can return to your previous singing style, which will make your voice more recognizable and the audience will remember your voice."

Seeing Deng Xiaran's slightly confused expression, Tan Yue continued earnestly, "In fact, according to your previous singing style, you have great potential for development. Don't regard it as a constraint."

"I understand, Mr. Tan."

"Maybe you don't really understand it now, but you will know it slowly. Practice persistently and keep challenging yourself, and you will definitely get better results."

"Thank you, Mr. Tan. I will work harder in the future."

Whether she understood it or not, Deng Xia Ran was already very happy knowing that she had great potential for development.

Wei Yu, who was sitting nearby, watched the conversation end and said, "Mr. Tan, let's go back and continue recording the song." "Go ahead." Tan Yue reminded, "While improving your singing skills, don't forget to protect your voice and avoid damage to your voice due to overuse."

Wei Yu and Deng Xia Ran left the office.

In the elevator.

Wei Yu said: "Remember what Mr. Tan told you, keep working hard!"

Deng Xia Ran said "hmm".

With the support and encouragement from Tan Yue today, she has more confidence in herself.

The two returned to the recording studio and started trying without stopping.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Deng Xia Ran said, "Boss Wei, I want to record a version first."

After continuous practice, she clearly felt her own progress and basically mastered the suggestions put forward by Tan Yue.

"Okay, let's start." Wei Yu was very happy and looking forward to it.

As Deng Xia Ran was fully prepared, the accompaniment of "My Secret" sounded again.

"I've been in a good mood recently..."

The singing echoed in the recording studio.

Deng Xia Ran completely immersed himself in the lyrics, and with his eyes closed, a figure appeared in his mind.

Wei Yu and Teacher Jie, who were sitting outside, looked at each other and saw satisfaction in each other's eyes.

The performance this time was much better than before.

Listening to beautiful songs is such a pleasure, and it’s over before you know it.

"You sang very well." Wei Yu clapped his hands, thinking that this time it was exactly what he had imagined.

Teacher Xie also gave a very high evaluation.

He was with us the whole time during the recording.

Deng Xia Ran walked out with a smile on her face, and was very satisfied with the recording.

Wei Yu said: "In the later stage, practice according to the feeling of this time. After you get familiar with it for a few days and there are no problems at all, we will start preparing to release the single."

Brilliant Entertainment has very high requirements for releasing songs.

In fact, it is a requirement for singers.

The songs released must not be subject to any audio editing and will not be released if there are any problems.

If the song sounds good after it is released but the performance sounds like a car accident scene, it will only harm the singer and affect the company's reputation.

"Ok."

New breakthroughs always bring great encouragement and confidence.

Deng Xia Ran is confident that he will be able to sing this song without any problems in the next few days.

At the same time, she is looking forward to releasing this song as soon as possible.

The song "My Secret" was written by Tan Yue, and this alone will attract the attention of countless people.

This is very important for a singer.

What's more, Deng Xia Ran is just an artist ranked 13th on the list of second-tier public figures.

Been stuck at this place for a long time.

After so many years in the entertainment industry, she has not even made it into the top ten of the second-tier public figures list.

The best finish was eleventh place.

Deng Xia Ran felt that if she didn't release another album, her ranking would definitely drop.

The company was preparing to release a new album for her because of this matter.

Ranking on the list is like rowing against the current, if you don’t move forward, you will fall behind.

If you don't work hard, you will naturally be overtaken by others.

Deng Xia Ran never thought that one day she would be able to sing a song written by Tan Yue.

This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity has fallen upon me, so I must sing well no matter what.

To be honest, on the day when Deng Xia Ran received this song from Wei Yu, he had imagined that his ranking would be among the top ten of the second-tier public figures list.

To be bold, it would be the top five.

A more daring approach would be to think about entering the list of first-tier public figures.

These thoughts have appeared in her mind before.

Although audiences like to watch Tan Yue's movies, the songs he wrote are also liked by many people.

Plus the popularity of Tan Yue.

Deng Xia Ran believed that as long as she sang well enough, this song would bring her huge profits.

Entering the list of first-line public figures has been her dream since she entered the entertainment industry.

Now that the stepping stone is ready, whether you can knock it open depends on your ability.

"You continue practicing, I'm going to go back first." Wei Yu left the recording studio in a hurry.

He suddenly remembered that he had a very important document to deal with.

"Teacher Jie, let's continue practicing."

Music sounded from the recording studio.

……

After half an hour.

Wei Yu came to a small meeting room.

He had just finished processing some documents and asked his secretary to notify everyone for a meeting.

"Mr. Wei."

There were two people sitting in the conference room.

"Please take a seat." Wei Yu said straight to the point without any further ado, "I called you here to discuss Deng Xiaran's single release."

The two people were a little surprised, and there was some confusion in their eyes.

A single is different from an album.

A single only has one song and doesn't require much promotion.

Moreover, Deng Xia Ran is only an artist on the second-tier public figure list, so they do not need to be personally responsible for it.

Wei Yu continued, "I know you will be confused. I specially asked you to come to a meeting for a single song. This song was written by Mr. Tan."

"A song written by Mr. Tan?" A man took a deep breath, his face full of shock.

Wei Yu said, "You should be aware of the situation in the music market since the beginning of the year. If we want to regain the market, we can only come up with a surprise plan. Before the New Year, I went to Mr. Tan to ask for a song. If we give Deng Xiaran a few more days, the song can be released."

"Mr. Tan is very popular, and this is a rare opportunity for us, so we must promote this single well before it is released."

Wei Yu attaches more importance to this song than anyone else.

At the beginning of the new year, he wanted to get a "good omen".

"Mr. Wei, I want to ask a question that is off topic," said another person.

"speak."

"How did you find the song Mr. Tan wanted?"

"Straight away."

"So simple?!"

Wei Yu nodded, pretending to be indifferent.

"Cattle!"

Wei Yu smiled and said, "Let's have a good discussion today and come up with a publicity plan."

Compared to the promotion of film and television works, the promotion of a single is much easier.

The three of them started a heated discussion.

In fact, Wei Yu doesn't need to be personally responsible for things like publicity.

But after all, it is Tan Yue's work, so he has to participate in the whole process.

The sooner the relevant work is completed, the sooner the song can be released.

On the one hand, Wei Yu wants to seize back more music market.

This is my responsibility as the Director of the Music Department.

On the other hand, Wei Yu is looking forward to the response this song will cause after it is released.

The three leaders of the music department had a very intense discussion and the publicity plan was gradually perfected.

As time went by, various tasks were completed one after another.

Written by Tan Yue, the song "My Secret" will be released soon.
