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

Chapter 381
".Because, after 1000 years, the world will no longer have me, so I can't hold your hand affectionately and kiss your forehead lightly."

The producer didn't express his opinion immediately. He looked at the music score, hummed a short section, and then nodded: "Okay, the melody is flowing, smooth and delicate, and the lyrics are catchy, with an idealistic romantic color."

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Tan Guangyue: "The advantage of your voice is that it is full of magnetism, especially the alto region, which is very contagious. The disadvantage is that the range is not wide enough. This song is just suitable for your range. It is completely tailor-made to maximize your strengths and avoid weaknesses. "

This producer has been in the industry for more than ten years, and one of the two gold medal producers under the company, it is really rare to give such a commendatory comment.

Although it is impossible for Li Kai's works to be returned, it would be best if the singer and the producer agree. However, he didn't say much, made some adjustments, and started singing another song.

After a prelude, a singing voice came: "You are always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted, crying until dawn alone."

"The Heart Is Too Soft", Ren Xianqi's first representative work in the previous life, was released at the end of December 96, and quickly became popular all over the country, from 12-year-olds to children in kindergartens, can hum a few words, and the popularity of singing can be called The spectacle of the Chinese music scene.

The reason why it is a spectacle is that it is so popular that many songs that are called eternal classics are far behind, and the evaluation of this song in the circle is not high. Of course it cannot be said to be lackluster, but it is certainly not It is remarkable.

The melody is very simple, and it only sings a very common "chicken rib" love mentality: For a love that is almost desperate, there is no hope to eat, and it is unbearable to abandon it, but somehow it touches the softest hearts of countless urban men and women.

Let this song, which is not considered a classic from a professional point of view, become an indelible classic in the Chinese music scene.

According to unofficial statistics, the total sales volume of the album of the same name in Asia has exceeded 2000 million copies!

It is worth mentioning that Xiaochong, the songwriter of this song, is the source of inspiration.

Once, Xiao Chong won a lot of money while gambling in Las Vegas, but the girl who dealt the cards had a particularly bad face because Xiao Chong made her lose too much money.

After winning the money, Xiao Chong who returned to the hotel was worried about the girl, so he went back to the hotel and wanted to lose some money to her, but this time Xiao Chong lost all the money he won, and he even lost a lot of money. few.

While driving home, Xiaochong became more and more angry with his thoughts, and wrote the words "You are always too soft-hearted" on the car, which inspired him to compose the song "Too Soft-hearted".

Perhaps this is the so-called art, taking from life, higher than life, expressing feelings, the most touching!
"...You are always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted, you take all the problems by yourself, falling in love is always easy, getting along is too difficult, it's not yours, so don't force it."

The whole song has no obvious distinction between main and chorus, and there are not too many ups and downs, and some are just coherent and smooth in one go, which is quite similar to "After 1000".

But in comparison, whether it is lyrics or music, "After 1000 Years" is more gorgeous and delicate, while "The Heart Is Too Soft" is more popular and simple.

After Li Kai finished singing, this time, Tan Guangyue just nodded slightly, and the tangled look on his face meant that he had some reservations about the song.

The producer didn't comment, but just tentatively said, the two songs have a unified style and characteristics, will it cause the public's listening fatigue?

Seeing that Li Kai was noncommittal, the producer didn't say much. The achievements of Li Kai's works are there, especially the first week of the album of Future Girls, which just broke out a shocking sales. Since he is as conceited as he is, he dare not be arrogant Add a conclusion.

After explaining the two works, Li Kai did not stay any longer. When he left the recording studio, Tan Guangyue followed him out. Seeing his hesitation and hesitation, Li Kai guessed a little bit, and smiled: "Why, what about these two works? Have questions about the song?"

Tan Guangyue smiled wryly before saying, "These two songs are similar in style, will it be?"

Li Kai understood the meaning, shook his head and said, "'After 1000' is elegant, and 'The Heart Is Too Soft' is vulgar, both refined and popular will be appreciated."

In Li Kai's mind, there are more than a thousand songs from the previous life on Earth, among which there are at least 200 classics, and it took a lot of thought to pick out these two songs.

First, as the producer said, it was tailor-made according to Tan Guangyue's voice characteristics.

Come on, "After 1000 Years" is a song from the previous earth in 2005. For the current domestic music scene in this world, it is like a new wind. It's an attempt, or rather, to elevate the tone of the entire album.

And the song "The Heart Is Too Soft" is a song from the previous Earth in 97, and the current world is also in 97. Regardless of the current change in the domestic music scene, it seems that it came earlier than the previous Earth, but it is still only the initial stage, even Warm up period.

"The Heart Is Too Soft" was able to catch fire on the earth in the previous life. At the same time in this world, Li Kai doesn't think there will be too much deviation, which is a guarantee for the sales of the entire album.

Seeing what Li Kai said, Tan Guangyue no longer objected, but raised a sentence: "Then, can the order of the two songs be changed, with "After 1000" as the first hit, and "The Heart Is Too Soft" as the second hit? .”

Li Kai smiled silently, and did not respond positively, but said: "You also said before that your album is likely to be at the same time as Murphy and He Jingyun. Do you want to compete with the two queens, or even counter pressure?"

Tan Guangyue's face was moved, and her heart beat a few beats unconsciously. No singer in the circle would want such a thing, but she just didn't dare to hope for it.

"If you want to, let the song "The Heart Is Too Soft" share more promotional resources, if you don't want to, then change it." Before Tan Guangyue could answer, Li Kai patted him on the shoulder and said.

After lunch, Li Kai returned to the office area. He slept a little late last night. He lay down on the table to catch up on his sleep. It was almost two o'clock when he woke up. Then he went to the gym, ran for an hour, and practiced for half an hour. When he was about to take a shower, Zhang Linxiao ran over and told him to go to Qiao Li's office.

Li Kai pointed to his sweaty head, apologized, and took a shower. After 10 minutes, he changed into clean clothes and left the gym.

The door of the office was knocked open. Qiao Li behind the desk looked up at Li Kai, pointed to the stack of newspapers on the table, and continued to write documents with her head down.

Li Kai poured himself a glass of water familiarly, went to the office and sat down, took the stack of newspapers casually, and flipped through them casually.

They are all entertainment newspapers released today. Unsurprisingly, reports about the new album of future girls occupy prominent positions on the front pages of various companies, with hype and praise, big books, and bold predictions.
After flipping through it in a few minutes, Li Kai laughed, he was already immune to the media's style of praising people to heaven, and he didn't feel much.

At this time, Qiao Li also finished her work at hand, raised her head, and let out a long breath.

Li glanced at the tired look between her eyebrows and eyes, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Your complexion is not very good, you didn't have a good rest last night."

Qiao Li rubbed her temples and said, "I rested very well, but things have been going on since morning until now, without stopping."

Li Kai blinked: "That's true, after all, you are the leader."

Qiao Li shot him a look: "I am the most idle deputy director in the company, but I am also the busiest one."

Li Kai touched his nose and smiled a little embarrassedly.

Qiao Li stopped talking nonsense and started talking about the business: "Shu Zhen's manager, Wang Yanfen's manager, and Liu Huiying's manager all called me and wanted to make an appointment with you. In terms of price, there are 9 for three songs." There is no problem at all, even the meaning in the words, the price can be negotiated, what do you say?"

Li shook his head: "The price is only second. I only write songs for my friends. This premise has never changed."

The implication is that Shu Zhen, Wang Yanfen, and Liu Huiying have only cooperated before, and they are not considered friends in Li Kai's mind.

Qiao Li was not surprised. She hummed and changed the subject: "Around two o'clock before, Huacan held a press conference and announced the future girl's tour plan. In addition, in the next two weeks, the future girl will take over the show in one go. Six guest performers"

Seeing Li Kai's calm face, she either knew it a long time ago, or just didn't care about it. If it were someone else, as Huacan's behind-the-scenes boss, Qiao Li would definitely think it was the former, but for Li Kai, she thought the latter was more likely. high.

This guy doesn't even care about his commercial performances, let alone the singers under the studio.

Qiao Li paused for a moment before continuing: "At the press conference, reporters from Entertainment Express, the frontier of entertainment that was blacklisted by Huacan, went."

Hearing her probing tone, Li Kai didn't hide anything, and said, "It should be a settlement."

"It's too obvious."

Qiao Li was a little helpless, and sighed: "Entertainment Express reported Su Yaqing's negative news last Sunday, half of the sub-board, Entertainment Frontier reported Su Yaqing's negative news yesterday, also half of the sub-board, entertainment kaleidoscope It was not reported, and today, the former two were removed from Huacan's blacklist, but Entertainment Kaleidoscope is still on the blacklist."

Uncovering the mystery, she shook her head: "Also, at the press conference, when Lin Yue was answering reporters' questions, she responded fiercely to many singers' comments about your creative bottleneck period."

After a pause, he looked at Li Kai and said, "Is this going to be another storm?"

A flash of surprise flashed in Li Kai's eyes. Before, Qiao Li didn't care about these things. She would cooperate only when Li Kai brought it up. Why did she suddenly care about it today?
After thinking about it for a few times, Li Kai thought of a certain possibility, and instead of hiding it, he asked instead: "Did someone ask you to intercede?"

She was taken aback by this abrupt question, and after a while, Qiao Li nodded slightly: "After lunch, the boss of Entertainment Kaleidoscope called me personally, hoping to reconcile."

This is just a mention. Someone from Entertainment Kaleidoscope had contacted Qiao Li before, and Qiao Li had also told Li Kai that Li Kai agreed to reconcile, but just wanted to delay it, and Qiao Li could handle it.

Then he continued: "Just now, Vice President Song asked me to visit and talked to me about your creative bottleneck period. You also know that many singers under the company have come forward to accept interviews with reporters. "

"Do you want me to stop?" Li opened his mouth and sneered. Yesterday it was Wei Haonan, and today it was Vice President Song. It seemed that someone was really in a hurry.

What I want is this effect. If it doesn't hurt to the bone, how can I learn a lesson?
Qiao Li nodded: "Feng Zhihao and others all came from Huacan. Once there is a storm, they are likely to be pushed to the forefront, or even attacked by a group, because you picked them up with one hand, and in turn pointed at you. When encountering a creative bottleneck period, you would have been suspected of being ungrateful, but now the album of Future Girls has justified your name, if someone pushes you, you can definitely give them the hat of ungrateful."

After finishing speaking, he shook his head again: "However, Vice President Song was just analyzing objectively and didn't make any demands on you. However, at the end of the conversation, he made a point. When necessary, the company can only push out the black sheep and not let a mouse Shit, spoiled a pot of porridge."

Li opened his eyes slightly, and soon realized seven or eight points, and his face was slightly moved. At this moment, Qiao Li's voice sounded again: "It seems that I didn't ask you for anything, but I put the problem on yours. In front of you, either you stop this topic from fermenting, or the company will push a person out and bear the criticism of thousands of people, and the person who is pushed out will have a ruined future, and don't even think about being in the circle in the future wait."

Qiao Li stroked her forehead: "The company's move is too ruthless, a villain came directly to make a mischief, and stopped you on the head of the bar. Your original intention was just to return the same thing to the other and get justice. , to teach some people a lesson, but now, if this justice continues to be sought, it will destroy a singer, and even if this singer has had it, it is not worthy of being destroyed!"
