After failing the college entrance examination, he became a big star

Chapter 177 Only the third main hit
Huanxing Entertainment Daily published an interview article on the front page.

The subject of the interview is Mr. Song, who has retired for many years and is a famous songwriter in the original circle.

In the article, Mr. Song analyzed Li Kai's new album in detail, and why he was able to stand out from the competition with a first-line, a top-notch, and a king!

Song Lao pointed out that the popularity of Lun Singer itself, Li Kai was the weakest of the four when the film was released, and even now, he has only caught up with Michelle, and there is still a gap with Zhou Ziming, let alone Liu Mingliang.

In terms of publicity resources, Li Jian is two-thirds of Mi Xue, one-half of Zhou Ziming, and one-quarter of Liu Mingliang.

Of course, the big gap between Liu Mingliang and Liu Mingliang was not due to the ratio of pure publicity expenses, but because Liu Mingliang had the bonus of the Spring Festival Gala.

Under such circumstances, there is only one factor that can achieve a counterattack, and that is the quality of the album.

The gap between the first hits is actually not that big. "Qilixiang" and "Love in Winter" are both rare classics. It can be seen from the PK in the same period, and the recommended clearance of the two new songs on the two charts.

Zhou Ziming's "Love to the Depths" and Mi Xue's "Stylish Love" may be considered classics, but they are definitely masterpieces.

The fundamental gap is widened from the second hit, and the third hit, as well as other songs in the album, have widened the overall quality of the album to a qualitative gap!

"Heart Like a Knife", "Little Love Song", "Norwegian Forest", "Your Backpack", the first classics, put them in the album of any first-line singer, they are enough to be the first hit!

To sum it up, with five classic songs collected in a single album, Li Kai bridged the gap between popularity and publicity resources, and overwhelmed Liu Mingliang's album containing two classic songs.

This is a competition for the number of classic songs!

After reading the article, Feng Mo casually handed the newspaper to Xu Qianqiu: "Look, someone finally stood up and spoke the truth."

"There are too few pure musicians like Mr. Song in the circle nowadays." Xu Qianqiu nodded slowly while sweeping his eyes, and sighed with emotion from his mouth.

From Li Kai's album sales against Liu Mingliang last week, he and Feng Mo could see the reason behind it. This is the cumulative effect of the number of classic songs in the album.

There are definitely not a few musicians who can see this in the circle, but they all turn a blind eye.

The game between the two forces is a one-sided point of view. Those who do not want the structure of the music world to be broken, insist that Li Kai's album is a lyrical slow song, and those who desire the structure of the music world to be broken, also insist that Li Kai's album is a big hit. , It's because of Chinese style and rock!

This is completely ignoring the facts and preferring to be blind for the purpose!

It was nothing at all, no matter how violent the disturbance was, Li Kai only needed to keep silent to stay out of the matter.

However, rumors that Li Kai's works will be banned, plus the fact that four popular celebrities showed up to speak out yesterday, and five popular small and medium-sized celebrities followed closely, it seems that the rumors are not groundless!

Things are different.

Continuing this stalemate between the left and the right will only increase the determination of those popular songwriters to block Li Kai.

This is also Xu Qianqiu's only explanation, after much deliberation, why those popular songwriters want to ban Li Kai, it seems that there is only a dispute over the style of music!

Feng Mo's eyes flickered slightly: "Since this article by Mr. Song has been published in Huanxing Entertainment News, its influence will not be small. Do you think it will help that kid?"

Xu Qianqiu understood the meaning, glanced at him, and was not optimistic: "It's difficult, you understand the weight of the appearance of four popular celebrities better than me."

Feng Mo was silent, his brows were furrowed, and his face was serious. After a while, his eyes froze and he said: "Why don't I come forward to echo Mr. Song, if I can add a few more voices, maybe"

"If you step forward, it's going back on your word. Not only will you not be able to help him, but you will also offend a lot of people. Even Mr. Song, if it wasn't for his retirement, he would have been under tremendous pressure."

Xu Qianqiu categorically vetoed, rubbed the center of his brows, and said slowly: "Old Mo, a popular songwriter, is still so young, can you really block it?"

Feng Mo thought for a while, then sneered: "It's only for a while at most."

Xu Qianqiu nodded slowly, and thoughtfully said: "It is impossible for those popular big guys to not understand this point. Even if they are arrogant, how can the senior management of the five giants accompany them to do such practical useless work."

Said, then changed the topic: "The key now is Time Records. To be honest, I have never figured this out. Even if the songwriter rights are in his hands, he will definitely use his own songs in his own album. Besides, before He wrote songs for Xiaolan and Tan Guangyue, and the company is the beneficiary, so what reason is there to approve and block his works?"

Feng Mo snorted: "There's nothing wrong with this. The company has always only talked about profits, and was pressured by the five giants. In addition, it can get corresponding compensation and weigh the pros and cons. It's easy to make a choice."

"Then what do you think the five giants value most?"

"What is most important?"

"Where is the fundamental gap between the first-tier record companies and the five giants?"

"Distribution channels, songwriter resources, and more"

Feng Mo was answering casually, but stopped abruptly, his eyes widened, as if thinking of something terrifying.

Xu Qianqiu looked at him and squinted deeply.

Feng Mo swallowed his throat, and said dryly: "You mean, the real purpose of the five giants is to..."

Xu Qianqiu cut off his words: "I just have a bad premonition, I hope I'm worrying too much."

After all, wave your hands.

Feng Mo's complexion changed, he slowly closed his mouth, let out a mouthful of turbid air, and nodded silently.

Wager Records, Studio 6.

From three o'clock in the afternoon to eight o'clock in the evening, He Jingyun recorded two songs in five hours.

One song was passed six times, and one song was passed nine times. This kind of efficiency was difficult to achieve even for some powerful singers recognized in the circle.

Fang Qiong is not only He Jingyun's manager, but also the producer of the album. This is her special request before the transfer.

She was originally the music director of Dream Cube Records. In terms of music quality, even the senior producers in Wager Records may not be able to match her.

Of course, this is due to the rules of Huage Records, the six gold medal producers only serve first-tier mid-upstream singers, and He Jingyun is not qualified to be equipped with a gold medal producer no matter how much she praises newcomers.

She gave an "OK" gesture, with a look of sincere approval in her eyes. He Jingyun's voice is already excellent, and in the first month of joining two record companies, she had special vocal training. Skills have gone up a notch.

It is generally accepted in the circle that songs make popular singers. Fang Qiong also agrees with this, but not 100%.

Without a good song, it might just be Xiaohong. With a good song, it can soar into the sky.

He Jingyun, who has the appearance of a national goddess and the voice of heaven, is such a special case!
"Li Kai, Jing Yun has already recorded two songs, why don't you come here today?"

Recording two songs a day, the recording can be completed in five days. Fang Qiong didn't want He Jingyun's voice to be too tired.

Li opened his eyes to look at a piece of score that had just been written in his hand, thought it over, and looked up at He Jingyun: "The last time you sang, you were in very good condition. It would be a pity if you stopped now. If your voice is okay, why don't you sing?" Record another one?"

He Jingyun pursed her lips and smiled: "I'm fine, so continue?"

Fang Qiong didn't say much, Li Kai is the director of the system, and everything has to be up to him!
"I have a song, make a few copies, and I will sing a demo first." Li Kai handed the sheet music to Fang Qiong, Fang Qiong's eyes lit up, and he looked around a few times, with a helpless expression on his face.

Hujia disappeared.

He Jingyun's assistant is sometimes reliable, but sometimes it's outrageous!

She had no choice but to do it by herself, coming and going for a few minutes, a few more copies in her hand, one for He Jingyun, a few for the band, and one for herself.

Li Kai borrowed a guitar from the band, fiddled with the arc to test the sound, then walked to the microphone, adjusted the height, saw Fang Qiong entered the tuning room, made an OK gesture to him, and sucked lightly Angrily, he said, "I'll bring a piece of "Little Things in Big Cities" next."

"Little Things in the Big City", Miriam Yeung's first masterpiece, won the 2005 Top Ten Golden Song Gold Award, and was sung by Tian Hou Tian Wang, which shows how classic this song is.

Among them, the cover version of Jacky Cheung, the song god, is hailed as a classic among classics!
After a prelude, Li opened his mouth and sang: "Youth seems to start because I love you, but it makes me see through the word love. Ever since you suffered from amnesia, it was my fate. Didn't remember me but had another new honey luck, like a vixen who didn't allow me to come near"

The film "Little Things in a Big City" was released, and the response was enthusiastic. The exquisite music in the play has attracted many musicians and singers. The song "Little Things in a Big City" is one of the essence.

The part of the lyrics is the masterpiece of the musician Lin Xi.

After the last word of the song fell, Li Kai continued to think about it for a while, then slowly opened his eyes and looked up at He Jingyun. The latter was still immersed in the artistic conception of the song, and felt Li Kai's gaze. Only then did he come back to his senses, pursed his lips and smiled, nodded and said: "It sounds good."

Fang Qiong came out of the tuning room, her face a little excited, "Big City Little Love" is a sad song, the whole lyrics and music are gorgeous, giving people an indescribable auditory enjoyment, and the artistic conception of the song penetrates into the heart the human mind.

Cantonese songs can reach this level, which is very rare.

From her point of view, this song will definitely be accepted by the public, just like Li Kai's single "Suddenly Miss You", it is a song that must be popular!

"Good song."

Fang Qiong would also give the same evaluation, and then said: "With this song as the first hit, Jingyun's album platinum is not a problem!"

He Jingyun also thinks so, but it's only a platinum sales volume, and it can't meet expectations. She slowly said: "With this song as the first hit, the quality of Li Kai's other two songs will definitely not be bad. If you hit 150 million sales, Even double platinum, there is hope."

Fang Qiong thought about it, and that's right, if the other two songs are songs of this level, I can really expect higher.

In recent years, the Chinese music scene and Cantonese songs have obviously declined, and they are no longer the glory of the 80s. Even Guangzhou City, Hong Kong Island, and Baodao, which were once dominated by Cantonese songs, are now infiltrated by Mandarin songs, taking half of the market. The country above.

Here, the two exchanged words and expressed their expectations for the sales of the album. Over there, Li Kai was speechless!
"When did I say that this song is the first title of the album." In the end, Li Kai couldn't listen anymore, shook his head and smiled, and said lightly.

The two couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and when they turned their eyes, Li Kai spread his hands helplessly: "This song is only the third hit."

Fang Qiong's face was shocked, and He Jingyun was also slightly surprised.

The implication of Li Kai's words is that they don't understand that there are better songs than this one, not one, but two.

Li Kai saw their expressions in his eyes, and sighed in his heart. He pointed to He Jingyun's album which was on par with the first-line top performers, quasi-kings, and even queens.

The song "Big City, Little Love" is a classic, but it is not enough to make up for He Jingyun's lack of popularity. This time, he is going to come up with the best classic. Once the song is released, it will be like a milestone, and it will be difficult to surpass it!
