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

Chapter 397
Under Li Kai's watchful eyes, Ning Lan's expression of astonishment retreated at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally returned to normal, nodding silently.

"You are at the pinnacle of popularity right now. You don't need to change your style of music or your singing style. You have to have confidence in yourself, and you have to have confidence in me."

Li Kai's tone was calm, and there was a strong confidence in his calmness.

The reason why he brought up the topic after the first day was that Ning Lan called him twice yesterday and today. Most of the time on the phone was discussing the two songs "Across the Ocean to See You" and "Worth It". In the song, some details of the singing are handled, and in the remaining small part of the time, Ning Lan suggested whether there can be a non-lyrical slow song among the three main hits, or she can make some adjustments in her singing style.

From her words, Li Kai heard her many worries and heavy burdens in her heart. After some thinking, she roughly guessed a few points.

The worries and burdens are likely to be the result of the goal he set for Ning Lan that night after the first day.

In particular, the two non-title songs at the main level, let Ning Lan see his determination, which only added to the pressure.
Ning Lan did not avoid his gaze, looked at each other for a moment, let out a sigh of relief, and nodded again.

Seeing the firm look in her eyes, Li Kai smiled and nodded.

Studio One.

Same as last time, Li Kai handed over three pre-prepared scores to Ma Qian, and then distributed them to everyone.

And he put the blue guitar on his back, came to the front of the microphone, brewed a little, fiddled with the arc, and after a prelude, he sang: "You said you loved someone you shouldn't love, your heart is full of scars , You said that you made a mistake that you shouldn't have made, and your heart is full of regrets, you said that you have tasted the hardships of life."

"Awakening Time", the first representative work of Chen Shuhua in the previous life, and the pinnacle work of Li Zongsheng, the godfather of music, is a work that directly points to the key points of women's feelings. He mercilessly exposes this sad contradiction in broad daylight. If If we knew everything earlier, there would not be so many people who should not love, and there would be no regrets, but this world is full of regrets and contradictions.

The album of the same name is the first record in Taiwanese music history to sell more than one million, and it is a well-deserved eternal classic!

After singing the first song, Li Kai didn't ask Ning Lan how he was feeling, nor asked Ni Houdao with his eyes, nor did he observe the expressions and reactions of the crowd. After making some adjustments, he entered the next song. After a melody, The singing came: "I have a flower, planted in my heart, budding and waiting to be released, I am eagerly waiting for someone with a heart to come to dream."

"Women's Flower", Anita Mui's first representative work in Mandarin after the earth singer in her previous life.

This is a song that interprets the depths of a woman's heart.

The lyrics describe the dreamy season, the girl Huaichun.Silently waiting for the lover of her dreams to lead her and inspire her to get out of ignorance and mature, but these things can't be said clearly to others, let alone take the initiative, but the desire in her heart is extremely strong.

Many musicians in the circle call it a classic with no one to come!

After the singing, there were many people in the recording room, but the silence was audible. Li Kai raised his eyes and saw Ning Lan, Li Xia, and Ma Qian's glittering eyes. Even the three boys who accompanied the band, There is also an expression on his face that is still immersed in the artistic conception of the song and cannot extricate himself.

His gaze didn't linger, and he took it back after scanning it. There was a slight silence, and Li Kai entered the third and last song.

Fiddled with the arc again, the melody sounded again, and after a while, the singing voice came: "After the storm, there may not be a beautiful sky, and there will be a rainbow if the sky is not sunny, so your innocent face does not mean you are ignorant, not all relationships will have a beginning and an end , the end of loneliness does not necessarily have to be fearful."

"Human World" is one of Faye Wong's masterpieces in the previous life. Because of this song, Faye Wong's title of queen has become full of gold, and is called a masterpiece by fans.

As the singing fell slowly, Li Kai slowly pulled his emotions away from the artistic conception of the song. When he raised his eyes, he happened to meet Ning Lan's eyes. Before he could speak, Ning Lan nodded heavily.

After listening to these three songs, Ning Lan already understood why Li Kai said that some songs are suitable for her, but not for He Jingyun.

Whether it's "Dream Awakening", "Women's Flower", or "Human World", it can be said that women without certain experience can't sing that kind of taste. Even if they can sing, it will be because the singer is too young. There is a sense of contradiction with the youthful and astringent temperament.

But her age and temperament are just right.

These three songs are not only suitable for her voice, but also suitable for her person. They are tailor-made beyond the conventional meaning in the circle!
Seeing Ning Lan's nod and the affirmation in his expression, Li Kai didn't ask any more questions, and turned his gaze to the direction of the tuning room, only to see Ni Houdao behind the soundproof glass, one left and one right, holding up two thumbs, with writing on his face. With [-]% satisfaction.

Li Kai smiled, gave him a thumbs up, and when he came out, he said, "Mr. Ni, I will leave the recording to you. Don't be in a hurry. Sister Ning's album will not be released until the 15th of next month at the earliest." .”

Ni Houdao said yes.

Li Kai didn't stay long, exchanged a few more pleasantries, and then retired!
Luo Shao talked to Li Kai about the bet on Tuesday, and then returned to the capital, and this trip was like nothing.

A week passed in a blink of an eye, and a new week came.

on Monday.

At ten o'clock in the morning, last week's sales table was released!

First, Future Girls, 353367.

Second, Zhao Chuanxiong, 138172.

Third, tidal combination, 115272.

Fourth, Jiang Shanlan, 102817.

Fifth, Luo Yidong, 100192
Sixth, Sunny Band, 92837.

Seventh, Flying Fish, 87261.

Eighth, Ou Xiang, 85823.

Ninth, Pumu, 81672.

Tenth, Wang Kai, 79281.

Future Girl still tops the list, but compared to the previous week's sales of more than 43, it has taken a big dive of more than [-]%.

Generally speaking, it is indeed a big surprise, but it is reasonable. Firstly, Future Girls is a brand new girl group and does not have much popularity. Second, more than [-]% of Future Girls' album sales are driven by three songs. The main title, and the other seven songs in the album, except one is the work of a songwriter, the rest are works of senior songwriters, in comparison, it seems bleak. The super-high sales volume driven by two weeks of strong exposure, the follow-up word-of-mouth effect is slightly insufficient, and it is difficult to maintain.

But even so, the sales of more than 35 copies are still absolutely amazing.

The album has been on the market for three weeks, with a total sales volume of nearly 119 million copies, and there are still 9 days left before the full moon. It can be said that the single-month achievement defaults to four and a half platinum.

And Zhao Chuanxiong, who ranked second, saw a decrease of less than 55% in sales compared to the previous week. As a result, the monthly sales exceeded [-], reaching the default quasi-double platinum, which is infinitely close to the default double platinum.

With the birth of a girl in the future and overwhelming everything, getting this result should be regarded as barely passing!
Tidal Band, ranked third, dropped by about [-]% from the previous week, which is considered a normal range.

Jiang Shanlan ranked fourth. She released films at the same time as Zhao Chuanxiong. The monthly sales were almost 50, and she also reached the default one and a half platinum. It can be regarded as climbing the quasi-first line.

Luo Yidong, who ranked fifth, finally struggled to break the 10 mark in the last week of the piracy protection period, but the hope of reaching the default platinum in a single month is still very slim.

As a first-line top performer, he is still the number two male singer that Huilijing Records values ​​quite a lot, and his sales are not enough to be platinum, which is really not satisfactory!

Among the sixth to tenth, Flying Fish is worth mentioning. The album was released last week, and the album was released for 5 days, with more than 8 sales, which is a very brilliant result.

The Flying Fish is a brand new pop band under Nisso.

Generally speaking, as the albums of Future Girls peaked and fell rapidly, the situation of other singers' albums being suppressed has been greatly eased.

After the regular meeting of the department, Li Kai and Qiao Li left the meeting room under complicated gazes.

"In 21 days, the sales volume was 119 million, and the first diva girl group was born." Walking in the spacious corridor, walking all the way to the office, Qiao Li joked: "Now that Huacan has two divas, compared to The lineup of singers of any of the five giants is not far behind, have you ever thought about how big the celebration will be for the queen?"

Li Kai looked at her: "What are you working so hard for? I'm not the king. Even if the future girl's album sells 1000 million copies, you won't get a dime."

Qiao Li rolled her eyes: "Do I have a share in the brain core stock?"

Li was stunned for a moment: "It's done?"

Qiao Li snorted: "It's almost there, and I should be able to go to the lawyer's office to sign a contract in a day or two."

After finishing speaking, Dai Mei frowned suddenly: "By the way, there is no news about the bet?"

Li Kai shrugged and spread his hands.

Turning a corner, the office is just ahead, and it is possible to see the secretary's office desk at the door. At this moment, Li Kai's cell phone rang, and he took out the number. It was Liu Mingliang's manager, and Shan Weidong's. phone number, he stopped and picked it up: "Brother Dong."

Qiao Li just glanced at him, didn't wait for him, and walked towards the office by herself.

"Hehe, the cumulative sales volume in the past three weeks has exceeded 119 million, and it is a foregone conclusion that the girl will be crowned queen in the future. Congratulations."

Li Kai also chuckled, and instinctively wanted to say something: "It's not a full moon yet, and we can't make a conclusion until the end."

But then he thought that this seemed a little too modest, and being too modest is hypocrisy, so he said, "Thank you."

Shan Weidong said slowly: "The domestic music scene originally had eight super-first-tier groups, four kings and four queens, and now there is another female group of queens, four kings and five queens, it is really getting more and more yin and yang."

As he spoke, his thoughts jumped, and he said, "By the way, I had a phone call with Jin Dao yesterday. In principle, Jin Dao accepted Ming Liang's suggestion. It is too difficult to make it possible for the four heavenly kings to be on the same stage again in the Spring Festival Gala. You, Ming Liang, It is more practical for the three of Shaw to be on the same stage, and the gold content is not bad at all."

Shan Weidong hummed, remained silent for a few seconds, and then said: "This matter, we still have to wait for the Spring Festival Gala director team to be formed. Director Jin and several assistant directors will discuss it before we can make a final decision. However, it should not be a big problem. Songs, you can I remembered."

Shan Weidong said that the problem is not big, that is at least [-]% sure.

Li Kai was also unambiguous, and simply responded.

"One more thing"

Shan Weidong's voice suddenly became a little lower: "Huacan made a bet with Rolling Snow Records that the ten singers under Rolling Snow and Time, and the ten singers under Huacan and Shuteng will be concentrated in mid-November to mid-December. , a total of five weeks to release the film, based on monthly sales, the top five will win three seats, or more than three seats, the bet on both sides is Huacan and Time Records, is this true or false?"

Li opened his eyes and said, "Brother Dong, who did you hear this from?"

Shan Weidong said: "Gunxue notified Nisuo, the boss called several senior executives for a meeting, and Mingliang also participated. Gunxue didn't say 100%, but since he was notified, he also reported Nisuo suggested that borrowing songwriters should be almost inseparable, what's going on?"

Hearing this news, Li Kai quickly came to a conclusion. It seems that the senior management of Rolling Snow should have approved the bet.

"That's right, this is the bet that Luo Shaoda and I reached verbally last week. He can't make the decision personally. He needs to go through the Rolling Snow Records executive meeting. I'm also waiting for news. According to what you said, Rolling Snow informed Nisuo, from this point of view, the Rolling Snow executives should have approved it."

After Li Kai gave the confirmation, he obviously heard a sound of sucking cold air from the other end of the phone. After a moment of silence, Shan Weidong's voice came again, and his tone became very solemn.

"This gamble is not good for you. There are four biggest factors that determine the sales of a singer's record. First, the popularity of the singer itself; second, the quality of the album songs; third, publicity resources; and fourth, the release of the film. channel."

Shan Weidong paused, and said in detail: "The album's promotional resources are obvious at a glance, so I won't go into details, but for the other three points, Huacan is at an absolute disadvantage."

"The singer's popularity, that is, the singer's level, this is obviously dominated by Rolling Snow and Time Records."

"You should be the only songwriter Huacan can invite, and because the opponent of this bet is Huacan, Gunxue can get the support of the other four giants, and gather all the five giants. Great songwriters, including those popular songwriters, if you fight against the entire circle of songwriters, what do you think your chances of winning are?"

"As for the distribution channel, the five giants gather together, and the same record will sell at least [-]% more than Shuteng Records within a month."

Hearing the first two points, Li's expression remained unchanged. Qiao Li had mentioned it long ago, and he had fully considered it, but when he heard the last point, his pupils suddenly shrank!
The distribution channel, this point, he really didn't think about it before.

He believes that Shan Weidong absolutely understands the weight of this bet. Since he said that there is a difference of [-]%, and he added at least before, it will never be an exaggeration to scare him.

Ten percent, this gap is definitely considerable in a single month.

His complexion changed a few times, and he was silent for a long time. Li Kai took a deep breath and said, "Brother Dong, I won't hide it from you. I have fully considered the first two points you mentioned, but the last point is that Hulu Now, do you have any suggestions for filling the vacancy?"

(PS: I overestimated myself. I used to be at home on vacation, and it was absolutely no problem to write 1 words a day, but these two days I was in a bad state, and my son harassed me from time to time. Friends, explain, I will adjust the status as soon as possible)
