Please Answer 2020

"This is the most serious album I have made since I entered the industry, and it is also the best result I have written so far."

What Cheng Qian'an said was not humble at all, the result of hard work is to let people know, otherwise how can people know how much he has put in so far by pretending to be modest.

"These seven songs make up the album, and the remaining six songs are my part, mostly done by my team."

The primary and secondary relationship, Cheng Qian'an worked hard to write these seven songs within a month and achieved a high degree of completion, which is already quite not easy.

The bad thing is that Twice has a good personal relationship with him, otherwise, it would not be a problem for him to go out and sell these songs several times.

"Ask a question."

Park Jihyo in the audience spoke out at this time, expressing his thoughts in a slightly relaxed way.

"There are so many styles, it feels like a chameleon, and how does the title song decide which one is?"

Park Jihyo said with a smile, turned to look at the members, and finally said to Cheng Qianan.

What kind of ideas they can offer, at most, they are considered from the perspective of the stage, and secondly, whether the fans can bear such a changeable style.

"However, the style of each song is very different. It can even be said that there is no overall completion of the album, as if they are playing their own."

Cheng Qian'an nodded calmly.

"But to put it bluntly, the most important thing is that the song is good, and everything else is secondary."

he stressed.

Now there are more and more ideas about playing with concepts. Playing with concepts is good, but it depends on the company's planning level and the energy invested.

Looking at the current JYP, the more and more last time was considered a relatively large-scale investment. It invited big-name producers from Europe and the United States, and it was thoughtful and breakthrough in makeup.

As a result, one of Twice's legs was directly sprained, and as long as the song is not good, you will be beaten to death by any mess.

Cheng Qian'an thought of something again, looked at the people in the conference room, thought about it, and finally said it straight.

"Secondly, everyone knows that apart from fans, no one actually listens to your recorded songs. No one cares about the variety of styles of recorded songs."

"And the fans who are willing to listen to the included songs are diehards. As long as the included songs don't sound too bad, they can accept them, so it doesn't affect them at all."

"More and more did so poorly, and the word-of-mouth damage of the music source is too serious."

As soon as these words came out, the people present didn't know how to react.

Embarrassment, dumbness, all of these.

At the time when Twice was the most popular, all the included songs were able to enter the top [-] of melon. Although the top [-] sounds nothing, but don't forget that there are many girl group title songs that can't even enter the top [-].

That was the most beautiful time for them. Even if the songs were shoddy, they could still achieve good results as they were in the hearts of the Korean people.

It's different now, whether the title song of the next comeback can stay in the top ten is a question mark.

They all knew it in their hearts, but Cheng Qian'an said it so directly, it felt like the fig leaf had been ripped off.

Obviously they are still the most popular girl group in Korea, and they still say things like this.

"That's what you said, but... ah, what you said is too straightforward."

When Park Jihyo heard this, he smiled a little embarrassedly, and immediately denounced him.

"Ah, everyone knows it in their hearts, but you still have to say it so directly."

As soon as Park Ji Hyo's words fell, Lim Nayeon denounced him loudly and blamed him for being rude.

Mingjing Nan on the side didn't speak, just gave him a silent look and puffed his mouth.

"It's not just about you, it's the same for everyone."

Hearing this, Cheng Qian'an smiled and said instead.

"So, the production level of these songs can actually be regarded as the main song, and it doesn't matter which one is chosen as the main song."

Cheng Qian'an has a well-thought-out plan.

"Well, you listen first, and then express your opinion after listening."

He just introduced and played part of the melody in general, and went through it briefly, and now it is the official start of the process.

Cheng Qian'an said that these other people had no objection, and the tone of the whole was so high that they felt full of anticipation for the whole meeting.

"Come after like first."

While Cheng Qian'an was talking, he clicked on the demo and played it.

The prelude is full of rhythm, based on Deep House, capable rhythm and classical, strong personality hook.

"I personally think that this song is more suitable as the title song of your album this time. Although the production may not be the best, the style is the most suitable."

"A flamboyant, grand celebration-like opening that embodies a step up from the style expressed by more and more, into a sense of self-confidence, self-love, and even narcissistic pride."

"From the original style of the vitality girl, go one step further, grow and transform, I no longer pursue you, I have grown up, but love for myself."

"A confident love attitude based on self-love."

Demo is looking for a professional female voice, 3 minutes is fleeting, and it is over in a short time.

"As for the lyrics, if you want, you can make changes to the lyrics."

Naturally, Cheng Qian'an did not forget the classic marketing point, let idols participate in the lyrics and composition, so as to increase the fans' expectations, and further drive the music source and sales.

"How about it?"

After playing the song, Cheng Qian'an asked.

"Okay, it sounds good."

The key is that the songs are good. Although it is impossible to determine which songs will definitely become popular, the basic aesthetics can determine which songs are good or not.

I skipped expressing opinions, and it is difficult to express any targeted opinions for songs with a high degree of completion, given their musical literacy.

After the music was played one by one, the expressions on the faces of everyone present became more and more exciting as the music was played one by one.

The quality is really too high, anyone can tell that every song has been carefully crafted.

Cheng Qian'an took care of everything, even down to the mixing process after recording.

The level of JYPE's mixing is not good, the vocals and accompaniment sound very split, and the usual problems are particularly obvious in ITZY.

This remix is ​​not a remix of a well-produced song, but one of the necessary post-production processes for a song, integrating vocals and accompaniment together.

"Next is... RUN2U."

"The structure is very similar to fancy, um...it's a retro style song."

The two songs RUN2U and After like are the most suitable songs for Twice's style and route, so they are very suitable for singing.

"By the way, this cupid may be more popular than other songs in overseas marketing and promotion."

"Because I personally think that it is still very suitable for the currently popular style overseas, City Pop, with a slow rhythm, try the water first."

Cheng Qian'an said.

After listening to three songs in a row, they were convinced, and then boosted their unprecedented confidence in this comeback.

As Cheng Qian'an said before, although he smiled brightly and carefreely in front of the camera, he never mentioned anything about grades.

In this regard, the company actually has requirements for its artists. If the performance is not good, you can't show negative emotions. If you are good, you can boast a few words and be excited, but you can't say much.

Otherwise, it will be regarded as utilitarianism and unpleasant for artists to show concern for performance in front of the outside world.

This is also one of the requirements for image character design.

Idol has been in the entertainment industry all the year round, how come he doesn't know the most obvious things like returning to performance, but he can't express it emotionally.

"Next...it's Cry for me's turn."

When Cheng Qian'an was about to play this song, his heart was pounding for a moment, and he raised his head and took a quick glance at Lin Nayen and Mingjing Nan.

With so many people present, even if you know it's a hint after listening to the lyrics, it can't be too much, let's turn the table on the spot.

Cheng Qian'an thought so.

Anyone who understands this word can understand the twists and turns between Cheng Qian'an and the two of them at once.

At the beginning is the string music, which is introduced like a classical music style, a little bit like Psycho.

If listeners listen to it, they will say that it feels like the style of the second-generation girl group about ten years ago, the most classic Korean love song Kpop with both love and hate.

"I know, there is no need to save it anymore"

"But unlike that girl, I never thought of letting go easily"

Just as Lin Nayen heard the beginning, she suddenly turned her head to look at Cheng Qian'an, to be more precise, her eyes were both startled and suspicious.

The lyrics...

Lin Nayen temporarily suppressed the emotions surging up in her heart, and continued to listen patiently.

It's just the first two sentences, maybe it's just the over-association she heard.

"Today I will fall into your arms and pretend I don't know anything"

"I will not break up, but I will send you a pure smile and be embraced by you"

Just after the first two sentences were finished, Ming Jingnan felt something was wrong with the following two sentences, so he also silently turned his head to look at Cheng Qian'an.

Are you writing about me?
Mingjing Nan's eyes that looked like cut autumn water conveyed doubts, with a face of not knowing why.

"I want you to cry for me*3"

"Let you suffer for me as I once cried for you"

When the chorus part was over, Lin Nayen and Ming Jingnan couldn't sit still, and felt that Cheng Qian'an was writing this song in front of the two of them!

It's just...
Damn!

Lin Nayen and Mingjing Nan both burst out of absurdity, shock and anger in their hearts, extremely resentful.

It's just messing around.

Not to mention the two of them, even the other members more or less felt that something was wrong.

It was like Minozaki Saxia's eyes dripping back and forth between Lin Nayen and Mingjing Nan, listening to the singing in her ear, she felt so speechless about Cheng Qian'an's operation in her heart that she had nothing to say.

Do you dare to write this?
Do you dare to let it go?
Are you not afraid of death?

Minozaki Saxia really didn't know what to say about Cheng Qian'an, so she glanced at him and saw him looking down at the computer screen with a serious face, as if he didn't feel the strange atmosphere at all.

Pretend to me again!

Seeing Cheng Qian'an's reaction, Minozaki Saxia knew that he was pretending.

What a scumbag.

She spurned Cheng Qian'an in her heart, and listened to the song intently, but the lyrics immediately drilled into her ears made Minozaki Saxia's heart green, red, white, green, messy, and she was completely aphasic and suffocated.

"My determination collapsed because of love again, weaving all kinds of reasons to forgive you."

"I don't know how to hate a guy like you"

"I'm protecting you again in front of my friends, and I've become a complete fool"

These few lines of lyrics broke Minozaki Saka's heart in an instant, and the absurd anger and resentment that surged into her heart made her almost unable to control the expression management on her face.

After ordering your two girlfriends, now order me again? ? ! !
These lyrics are extremely harsh to Minozaki Saka.

It feels as if Cheng Qian'an is satirizing her through the lyrics, laughing at him, and riding on his face rampantly and presumptuously.

Minozaki Saka's face turned green when she heard this, her fists under the table were clenched tightly, her joints turned white, her breathing involuntarily accelerated and became unsteady.

Well, you Cheng Qian'an, if you have a good face, you dare to put your nose on your face and conceive me in front of your face.

Zhou Ziyu, who was sitting next to Minozaki Sasha, looked a little confused, but cautious. Even though she was as dull as her, she felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. Except for the sound of music, it seemed too silent.

Especially when Zhou Ziyu looked at Minozaki Saka who was sitting next to him, his eyes were absorbed but he looked fiercely, and his chest could be seen to rise and fall violently.

Zhou Ziyu didn't understand, and couldn't figure out why Minozaki Saka had such a big reaction to this song.

Is it too immersive?

It was hard for her to imagine that Saxia Minozaki would have any ambiguous relationship with Cheng Qian'an, she just thought she was engrossed in listening to the music.

Zhou Ziyu's gaze then turned to Lin Nayeon and Ming Jingnan.

Although she doesn't know the whole story about Cheng Qian'an's love life, but she is under the same roof with these sisters, so she knows more or less the inside story.

Cheng Qian'an's lyrics sounded like expressing personal thoughts and wishes, and some lyrics, although she didn't understand the inside story, but the reactions of the two people in sight were enough to prove that the lyrics were written...
Very over the top.

Lin Nayen didn't hide too much, but her face avoided the side that the members could see, and she glared at Cheng Qian'an angrily, without blinking her eyes.

Ming Jingnan felt like a quiet killer, his eyes seemed to have too much emotion, but also seemed not to have too much emotion, his eyebrows were lowered, but he just looked at Cheng Qian'an from time to time, and his eyes lingered on him.

Zhou Ziyu looked at the reactions of the people in front of him, silently averted his gaze, and listened to the song quietly.

"I want you to I want you to"

"Die for me"

When Zhou Ziyu heard that life and death were finally involved again, he raised his head and glanced at it abruptly, and finally remained silent, pretending not to know anything, and to understand nothing.

Die for me?

Minozaki Saka was annoyed and annoyed when she heard this.

Want to die, right? Just wait!
Die for me?

Mingjing Nan pursed the corners of his mouth when he heard this, twirled his faded hair, raised his head and looked at Cheng Qian'an.

With a scrutinizing gaze, in the end, the corners of his mouth curled up as if nothing had happened.

Die for me?

Lin Nayen couldn't help yelling in her heart that Cheng Qian'an, you are dead, and wanted to hide it, but it made people look like she was gnashing her teeth.

I will let you die tonight!
