What kind of bad thoughts can the director have?

Chapter 171 It's Okay To Be A Patient
Sister Tao is very serious about her work, and she sent Yang Shu her new song "Ordinary People" that night, and also attached a song "Rouge".

She specifically confessed: "This is the promotional song of "Verse England" that Jackie Chan and I sang together. It will be released in a few months. Just listen to it yourself."

"Verse England" will be released on National Day this year, and there will be more than half a year left. This song was recorded last year, and it will not be used before the promotional period.

This must not be leaked out, otherwise Brother Cheng will have to jump up and show it to everyone. Sister Tao obviously trusts Yang Shu completely.

To be honest, this song surprised Yang Shu. After all, it is an action movie song. In this song, Sister Tao was carried by Jackie Chan’s usual vigorous style. The singing method has changed a lot. As soft as ever.

Especially the soundtrack is great, grand and open, full of resonance, and feels like a blockbuster music.

Sister Tao specially sent this song, of course, to prove to Yang Shu that her singing style can be adjusted and changed, depending on what the work needs.

Yang Shu replied to the message: "The song "Ordinary People" is different from the past, and it has the feeling I need."

"I'm also trying to figure out what kind of velvet flowers you need."

Sister Tao used to sing mostly national songs such as "The Old Beauty", and she became popular because of her ancient costumes, so naturally she always sang in a classical direction.

"Rouge" is not a new song, but the title song of Sister Tao's album "The Best Time" three years ago. It was produced by top production teams from both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and the singing style is also different.

The content of the song is also special, expressing that a woman is fully devoted to love and hate, but is no longer a prisoner of marriage, and the song is full of love and heartfelt.

"Sister Tao sings this song differently, but the lyrics are a bit sad and indignant, which is inconsistent with your virtuous wife's personality."

"Where did the character design come from? It's none of your business."

This song was released three months before Yang Shu crossed, so it really had nothing to do with him.

"I think the state of your singing "Ordinary People" is the best, especially the soundtrack is great."

Sister Tao said that the composer and producer of "Ordinary People" is Zhao Jialin, Jackie Chan's queen musician in mainland China these years, with a high level, and she made an appointment with this person's music room to audition on the 18th.

In addition to "Valent England", this person also wrote and composed songs for Jackie Chan's films "Railway Flying Tiger", "Jedi Escape" and "Kung Fu Yoga". In addition, he also led the production of Jackie Chan's new music album and wrote five of them Song.

"My episode "The Old Beauty" in "Langya Bang" was also composed and produced by Mr. Zhao. In addition, the divine song "Little Apple", which has become popular in the past two years, was also composed and produced by him."

Needless to say, Chopstick Brothers "Little Apple" is the favorite of Aunt Square.

Needless to say, "Railway Flying Tiger", Wang Kai participated in the starring role in the filming of Railway Guerrillas.

"Jedi Escape" Yang Shu heard from Hei Niuchen that it was co-produced by Sister Bingbing and Jackie Chan. In July last year, "Warrior" was released not long after the filming started. At that time, I didn't have time to join the show. field support.

Yang Shu immediately checked Zhao Jialin's information on the Internet, and Weibo showed that he is currently composing the soundtrack for Jin Dong's TV series "Our Love" and composing the theme song.

Since this person is of a good standard, and Sister Tao is also very cooperative, if you can’t take back what you say, let’s try hard and see if we can make a satisfactory "Velvet Flower".

Zhao Jialin's studio is in Haidian, not far from there. On the morning of the 18th, Sister Tao picked up Yang Shu and went there together.

Today she was dressed more casually. She wore a gray skirt with a black coat and a large beige scarf. She looked layered. Although they were all plain, they looked quite energetic.

Sister Tao was slightly angry: "When was the last time we met alone?"

Yang Shu thought for a while: "Before the shooting of "Warrior", we sacrificed too much for our career."

It's useless to talk nonsense, so I went to the old place of Feihongxuan in Zhuanta Hutong to revisit.

The scenery of the hometown, the carved railings and jade brickwork are still there, and the beauty is still there.

Withered vines, old trees and crows, small bridges and flowing water courtyards.

Asking how much Acacia you miss is like koi playing in spring water, crackling.

The courtyard of the old house is different. The pattern of the sun on the window lattice is carved on the bed, and the soul of the poplar tree seems to have passed through.

"My lord, we seem to be late."

"It's okay, actually I have an appointment with the studio at ten o'clock."

It's still Sister Tao who has plans and predicts things like a god.

Zhao Jialin is in his early thirties, unlike many musicians who have avant-garde image in fancy clothes. With short casual hair and simple casual suits, he looks more like a teacher in a university.

This is somewhat similar to Shu Nan who is composing the music for "Warrior". He looks more like a normal person, and does not need external signs and gimmicks to show that he is a music player.

He didn't take Tao Tao's interpretation of "Velvet Flower" very seriously: "To use an inappropriate analogy, Teacher Liu's timbre is like a delicate flower in a greenhouse, and the velvet flower is wild, ordinary, and earthy, which is not very harmonious. Together."

Yang Shu couldn't tell for a moment whether he was pretending or he really thought so, but he could borrow the donkey down the slope and find wild Han Hong to sing this song.

However, Sister Tao insisted: ""Warrior" is our own work. I want to participate in the creation. I would like to ask Mr. Zhao to help me adjust it. I think it can be sung well."

Since this is the case, I can only try. Sister Tao is very busy these days, and she is willing to spare time, and this will not be disappointing.

In fact, when it comes to the voice, Han Hong's is also very delicate and charming, with certain characteristics of the Tibetan nationality, but the song selection and singing method are well adjusted, so that it gives people a tough feeling.

In addition, don't underestimate the current music production technology. The sound modification software is very strong, and the donkey's bark can be changed into the sound of nature. Otherwise, many singers in the market can't mix it at all.

There is no accompaniment master tape in a hurry. Yang Shu compared the different versions of "Velvet Flower" by several singers. In the end, he felt that the original version of Mr. Li Guyi was the most suitable, so he tried it first.

So I entered the recording studio and began to sculpt every sentence to find the feeling. Yang Shu repeatedly emphasized the requirement that the singing must be full of nostalgia, slightly sad, soft and deep, and the emotions are progressive. Don’t feel like singing, you should sing freely with folk songs. means.

Zhao Jialin shook his head with a smile, and a little disapprovingly: "Director Yang has too many demands, and it's easy for people to lose their way."

Yang Shu didn't think it was too much: "I haven't asked to sing about lofty ideals, firm beliefs, and the dazzling light of revolutionary heroism."

Mature singers can often finish recording a song in half a day. Many big names like Wang Fei are superstitious about their first impressions. They don’t even make any preparations in advance, and often learn and sing every line in the recording studio with the score.

"Velvet Flower" is an old song that you don't need to learn. For two hours in the morning, you basically adjust Sister Tao's singing.

During this period, Yang Shu disagreed with Zhao Jialin more than once, and they fought in the recording studio, and each side refused to give in.

So sister Tao had to audition again and again according to the different requirements of the two, but in the end almost all of them proved that Yang Shu's opinion was better.

Yang Shu asked a lot, and he really implemented each item, forcing Sister Tao to do it over and over again. Sometimes a line of lyrics had to be sung [-] or [-] times before passing the test.

This is of course quite tormenting. During the break, Sister Tao also complained: "I can see it today. You are really cruel and merciless. Once you don't feel sorry for you."

In fact, this is the ending song, and the audience listened to it when the show was over. Generally speaking, it’s okay to pass, but Yang Shu refused to pass it casually, and finally almost dominated the audition. Those who didn’t know thought he was the music producer of this studio.

Yang Shu also realized that it's not good to make too much noise, and apologized to Zhao Jialin more than once: "I'm a director's occupational disease, and I'm a bit controlling. Please just treat me as a patient."

Yet his opinions are often the better ones, and it's hard to resist his dictates.

Zhao Jialin is worthy of being a top-notch producer. He adjusted the accompaniment on the spot to be more consistent with Tao's singing, and gradually he really got the feeling Yang Shu wanted.

During lunch, Zhao Jialin became very polite, and even expressed his admiration: "Director Yang has good taste in music, and if he does this, he will definitely achieve something."

So it was decided to officially record in the afternoon, and then Zhao Jialin re-made the accompaniment and synthesized it according to the requirements.

The recording was finished after [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and the cooperation was pleasant. Sister Tao and Yang Shu were very satisfied, and they collaborated for another hot kiss when they boarded the car on the return journey.

"It's still early, but it's too late to go to CCTV at this time, where do you think we are going now?"

Seeing sister Tao's expression, Yang Shu knew where to go.

"Go back to Zhuanta Hutong, and go sightseeing in the mountains and rivers."
