Chapter 125 Arrangement (please subscribe)

Zhou Dingran immediately redeemed the song "囍" manually.

After exporting "囍" and looking at the lyrics and music of this song, Zhou Dingran's mind seemed to be filled with gongs and drums, bells and drums ringing, and various melodies replaying in his mind.

"Regardless of lyrics and music, it is considered the best among online songs."

Zhou Dingran secretly admired it, and then discovered a problem, how to produce this song?
It is certainly impossible to complete the arrangement with just a mobile phone.

At this moment, he thought of Fanghua Entertainment. In order to win over Wenzhao Gong, this company personally gave up most of the company's shares with both hands, and its attitude was extremely sincere.

What's more, Zhou Dingran needed to go to Fanghua Entertainment.

Because after careful consideration, the mobile communication company has agreed to let Zhou Dingran sing the advertising song "My Territory".

"Take advantage of this recording session to produce the two songs "My Land" and "囍" in one fell swoop."

Zhou Dingran made up his mind, immediately asked for leave from the crew, and took the high-speed train to Donghai City the next day. The journey of more than an hour passed in the blink of an eye. After leaving the high-speed rail station, Zhou Dingran went straight to Fanghua Entertainment Company according to the address.

When we arrived at the place, Liang Xiaobo and Song Xinran, director of the composition department, were already waiting at the door.

After Zhou Dingran got out of the taxi, he looked at the office building in front of him: "It's really hard to find your company. The driver had to go around several times following the navigation."

Liang Xiaobo's face was a little embarrassed. Fanghua Entertainment is located in Fengxian, a suburb of Donghai City.

After all, it is not a well-known company in the industry, and there is no need for business cards, so it is natural to get it as cheaply as possible. For the same price, they can rent an office building in Fengxian, but in the city center, renting a storefront is enough.

"No matter how remote it is, no matter how hard it is to find, Xiao Zhou, haven't you found it yet?"

Song Xinran smiled: "This shows that you are here with sincerity, doesn't it?"

"You are right, I do come here with sincerity."

Zhou Dingran looked at Liang Xiaobo: "Are you Brother Bo? I heard Mr. Wen Chao mentioned you."

presumptuous!

Liang Xiaobo almost didn't scold him, "How can you just call Mr. Wen Chao's big name?"
But he finally resisted the urge to scold him. In any case, Zhou Dingran was considered a well-known figure in the entertainment industry, and he was much more famous than those behind the scenes in the industry.

While he was talking, a young man wearing myopia glasses who looked elegant also walked out of the office building. When he saw Zhou Ding, he immediately greeted him warmly: "Hello, Mr. Zhou, I am the general assistant of the Mobile Communications Campus Card Business Group. My name is Yu Xiaoye, I wonder if Master Wenzhao Gong has explained the situation clearly to you?"

"I made it clear." Zhou Dingran nodded.

Yu Xiaoye immediately smiled and said: "That's good. Let's try to finish recording the song "My Land" in one day today. Within a week, the song will be online in major stores across the country. By then, Mr. Zhou's singing may be It’s blooming all over the country.”

Yu Xiaoye said while looking at Zhou Dingran.

In fact, not long ago, Zhang Henian, the general manager of the company's campus card, was not optimistic about Zhou Dingran's performance of "My Territory". Even if it was recommended by Wen Chao Gong himself, after watching some of Zhou Dingran's singing clips in the past, he was convinced that Shake his head.

Zhou Dingran in the video material is basically either paddling or paddling.

I really don't know anything about singing skills or anything like that.

So there was no intention to let Zhou Dingran sing "My Territory" from the beginning.

Because of the recent popularity of "Lonely Warrior", Zhang Henian's first target is five-star singer Wei Xiao.

Letting Wei Xiaolai sing a promotional song for a mobile communication company would truly be in line with the status of mobile communication. The gimmick of a five-star songwriter and a five-star singer can quickly create a lot of hype.

But the reason why he changed his mind later was entirely because Wei Xiao rejected the lyrics and music of "My Land".

Although this song was written by Wen Chao Gong, which made Wei Xiao very envious, but unlike "The Lonely Warrior", "My Land" has too many and dense lyrics, which requires a strong ability to articulate words.

This is precisely Wei Xiao's shortcoming.

He is good at many singing styles, but he is not interested in rap. He has not released a rap work so far.

"My Territory" can be said to be the best among rap works, and the lyrics are relatively difficult to remember. Even the original singer Jay Chou rarely sings this song live in concerts.

After being rejected by Wei Xiao, Mobile Communications found some other five-star singers, but either the price was too high, or like Wei Xiao, even though they were very interested in Wen Chaogong's work, they finally decided to accept it after hearing that it was a rap song. I will still reluctantly refuse.

After going around and over, after comprehensive consideration, Mobile Communications finally adopted Wenzhao Gong's suggestion and gave the song "My Territory" to Zhou Dingran to sing.

It doesn't matter whether he sings well or not, the most important thing is that they suddenly discovered Zhou Dingran's huge popularity on Douyin.

Most of Zhou Dingran’s Douyin fans are young people in their teens and 20s, which is very consistent with the user portrait group of the campus card’s “dynamic zone”.

Especially after learning that Duke Wen was very fond of Zhou Dingran, Zhou Dingran's status in Zhang Henian's heart immediately rose a lot, and he immediately sent his assistant Yu Xiaoye to finalize cooperation matters with Zhou Dingran.

After Yu Xiaoye met Zhou Dingran in person, he had a vague feeling that this person definitely did not look like a thing in the pond.

Considering the other party's age and the existence of the civil servant...

Yu Xiaoye knew that it was only a matter of time before Zhou Dingran would rise again.

So Yu Xiaoye was very enthusiastic when he came this time.

……

Everyone walked towards the recording studio of Fanghua Entertainment Company. Along the way, Song Xinran, the director of the composition department, looked at Zhou Dingran from time to time, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Zhou, what is your relationship with Mr. Wenzhao Gong?"

"Ordinary friends." Zhou Dingran said calmly.

Liang Xiaobo was doubtful.

But Song Xinran and Yu Xiaoye didn't even believe a single punctuation mark.

Would an ordinary friend casually give you the song "My Place" to sing?

Let’s not talk about the quality of this song.

Just because this song was adopted as a promotional song by the Mobile Communications Campus Card Business Group, it is destined that this song will quickly be heard all over the country. As long as the quality is up to standard, it will definitely become a hit.

It's simply overwhelming wealth.

Would such an opportunity be given casually to ordinary friends?
I don't believe it!

But Zhou Dingran didn't say anything, and others couldn't ask more questions, so they had to secretly suspect him in their hearts.

"The arrangement of "My Territory" has been completed with the help of Teacher Wenzhaogong. Xiao Zhou, you just need to memorize the lyrics and sing."

When they arrived at the recording studio, Song Xinran handed the lyrics sheet to Zhou Dingran, but did not take out the music sheet.

Because as we all know, Zhou Dingran doesn't know how to compose music at all, which has been clearly demonstrated in the program "National Idol".

Zhou Dingran didn't care either.

In fact, before he came, he had already memorized the lyrics of the song "My Place" by heart.

This is due to his super memory as an actor. Whether he is memorizing lyrics or lines, he can almost double the effect.

Therefore, after receiving the lyrics, Zhou Dingran said directly: "Play the accompaniment first and listen to it. If it is confirmed that it is correct, let's start recording the song directly!"

"Record songs directly?" Liang Xiaobo and others were all stunned.

Zhou Dingran nodded and said: "Yes, we will record the song directly. After recording this one, I will record another one later. The crew and I asked for a day off. It is best to record the two songs in one day today."

"Another song?"

Liang Xiaobo and Song Xinran looked at each other, a little surprised: "Is it also the work of Teacher Wenzhao Gong? Why weren't we notified in advance?"

"This is just a matter of chance, no special notice is needed." Zhou Dingran said.

If it were someone else's song, Song Xinran would definitely not let Zhou Dingran record it so easily.But when she heard that it was Wen Chao Gong's work, she immediately agreed.

But she still had questions: "Have you memorized all the lyrics to "My Land"?"

Zhou Dingran nodded and said: "Well, I asked Wen Chao Gong in advance, so I am already familiar with the lyrics and music of this song."

Did Xiang Wenzhao know about it in advance?
Hearing this, everyone was a little surprised, and at the same time they valued Zhou Dingran more.

Because they could clearly feel that the relationship between Zhou Dingran and Wen Chao Gong was not simple.

Soon, the accompaniment of "My Place" began to play in the recording studio.

Zhou Dingran once gave Liang Xiaobo and others step-by-step instructions on how to arrange the music for "My Land" on the Haijiao APP.

Therefore, the accompanying music at this time is almost the same as the original version of "My Place".

The cheerful tune was very youthful, and Yu Ono was very satisfied with it.

By the time the second accompaniment was played, Zhou Dingran had already walked into the recording studio, put on the headset, and started recording.

"In my territory, you have to listen to me

Harvest music and find happiness through hearing
Started carving, my personal characteristics

The future is difficult to predict, stick to the current choice——"

The chorus was moved directly to the beginning, making the whole song quite attractive from the beginning.

In the past few days, Song Xinran and others have heard this melody very well.

They can also easily hum the chorus of this song, but the most critical part of this song is not the chorus, but the rap of the verse.

Let’s not talk about the melody, just talk about the lyrics of the main song, which is really difficult to memorize.

It took a lot of effort for Zhou Dingran to sing this song easily in a short time despite his huge lung capacity and the lyrics and music.

If there is no comparison between lyrics and music, no matter how good Zhou Dingran is, he will be blinded.

At this moment, everyone held their breath.

When Zhou Dingran finished singing the chorus and started the verse, Liang Xiaobo and Song Xinran were stunned by his rapping speed, which was like a machine gun bullet.

Even if Yu Xiaoye doesn't know much about music, he can still feel the power of Zhou Dingran's mouth.

"What does it mean to expand territory with attitude? What's going on?
Pigeons in the square, newspapers occupying the front page, a new interpretation
The title is about the city…”

It has both melody and accent, and the key words are vague and clear, giving people a powerful and mysterious feeling. The other three people were stunned on the spot. This rap is quite interesting!

It wasn't until Zhou Dingran sang the chorus again that the three of them came back to their senses.

“What an innovative work!”

Liang Xiaobo was a little excited: "Moreover, Mr. Zhou's way of rapping is really different from other singers on the market. It is completely eye-catching..."

Song Xinran nodded and looked at Yu Xiaoye beside him: "Mr. Yu, what do you think?"

"I feel good."

Yu Xiaoye said with a smile: "Originally I was a little worried, but now it seems that the singer Wenzhao Gongda has chosen will not disappoint."

"I was actually shocked by Zhou Dingran's performance."

Song Xinran said: "I checked Zhou Dingran's past performance videos, and they are completely different from now. It's like he's a different person, which is strange."

The other two nodded in sympathy.

Obviously they have also checked Zhou Dingran's past information and videos.

Now it seems that they are really different.

"Did you notice that he barely breathed during the transition between the chorus and the verse? What does this mean? He has a strong lung capacity!"

Song Xinran frowned: "Coupled with the calmness with which he sang this song, Zhou Dingran definitely has strong singing skills. Why hasn't he shown it before? I don't believe that Zhou Dingran can achieve such a level in just three or four months." Singing skills, unless...he deliberately hides his clumsiness?"

"maybe!"

Yu Xiaoye said: "No matter what, the better Mr. Zhou's performance is, it will be a huge benefit to both our companies."

Amid the discussion among the three, Zhou Dingran started singing "My Land" for the second time in the recording studio.

The first singing was already perfect, but some of the pronunciation was a bit deliberate and not too loose, so Zhou Dingran recorded it again.

After the second time, the third time was recorded.

By the end of the third pass, the entire song was recorded.

The total time taken is less than 10 minutes.

"Awesome! I've heard about the time it takes for five-star singers to record songs. For example, Yan Lei recorded the song "Borrow From Heaven for Another 500 Years" in just 10 minutes."

Liang Xiaobo said excitedly: "But the difficulty of singing the song "Borrow from Heaven for Another 500 Years" is completely inferior to "My Land", but Mr. Zhou only took 10 minutes! It's amazing!"

Song Xinran was also shocked. She seemed to underestimate this former top idol.

After the recording of "My Territory" was completed, Yu Xiaoye immediately gave Zhou Dingran a thumbs up and said: "In a week, this song will appear all over the country!"

"In order to launch the first campaign of the campus card, the company has spent huge sums of money to buy enough advertising broadcast shares on CCTV, Zhejiang TV, Xiangnan TV and other platforms. By then, all top satellite TVs will play your song."

"And this song will also be promoted in all offline stores!"

Yu Xiaoye said enthusiastically: "Now there is only one MV left. I wonder if Mr. Zhou is free recently? Let's go shoot the MV of the song together."

Zhou Dingran agreed immediately.

Then he saw Song Xinran and Liang Xiaobo looking at him eagerly.

He asked in surprise: "What are you looking at me doing?"

"Don't you have another song?" Song Xinran asked expectantly.

Zhou Dingran nodded, "There is one more song, but it takes time to arrange it. Just ask Brother Bo to stay and help me."

"And me?"

Song Xinran asked: "I am also a composer, and I also have some research on arrangement."

Zhou Dingran shook his head and said: "I don't need a composer or an arranger. I just need someone familiar with it to arrange the music according to my instructions."

Am I someone you know well?
Liang Xiaobo was so excited that tears filled his eyes, and he wanted to stab Zhou Dingran.

Come on, you, a mere tool, are so excited?

Song Xinran couldn't help but roll her eyes, and finally left with Yu Xiaoye reluctantly holding the "My Land" they had just recorded.

"Mr. Zhou, what song do you plan to arrange?" Liang Xiaobo asked enthusiastically.

Zhou Dingran said: "囍".
