Chapter One of the Night

   Chapter 28 Dismounting

  Du Xuelan looked up in surprise.

   Apparently she didn't expect that Xu Zhenghua had already prepared all the songs, but the way he played the score was really... not very good.

   has little respect for music.

   But she still took the sheet music and opened it to read.

   is a total of four pages, the first sheet is a simple score, and the last three sheets are a score for the sub-instrumentals.

   In short, the arrangement has been done.

   The first page had not been read yet, so she couldn't help but look up again.

  Xu Zhenghua crossed Erlang's legs, held the coffee cup comfortably, and took a small sip.

   Unlike those real music creators, he has neither expectations nor anxiety about the works he has produced. Anyway, things are not created by himself, and their success has been verified anyway.

   Anyway, "Short Hair" has been successful.

   Therefore, he does not need any praise, nor any questioning, nor any discussion.

He was even mentally prepared. If Du Xuelan didn't like it or was not interested at all, he was going to turn around and take this song to Jin Xiaoqing. Anyway, he owed her a big and no small favor. Anyway, there is also Guan Yulan here. The face is to give a song sooner or later.

   And to be honest, the sales of Jin Xiaoqing's last album are not that good. At the market level, there is no mature personal style - which song is popular, which song is your style.

   At the beginning, I really owed Chen Bangdao a favor. By giving a song, I was repaying the favor, but as long as it was given, no matter whether Du Xuelan wanted her or not, the favor would be cleared.

  The best thing is that she doesn't look down on it, so she can sing it to others, it's popular, it's fun.

With this mentality, he can of course drink coffee leisurely, and even look around in this studio - this is a semi-basement, with ventilation shafts, the kind that can let in natural light, on the way, Chen Bangdao introduced that it was bought together with the first floor. Du Xuelan and her assistant lived with her on the first floor, and the basement was renovated into a place to play music.

  A lot of professional audio equipment, a lot of musical instruments, a top brand grand piano.

   Of course, with two platinum albums in hand, Du Xuelan can afford it.

Two platinum albums mean more than 30 million in market sales. Even if she can only get 5% or 6%, she still has one or two million in royalties, plus she must have several times more commercial performances. Income, just after signing a contract with Kojima Records, her income should be in the tens of millions.

   In 1993 in this time and space, in a neighborhood like this near the Fourth Ring Road, the unit price of a house is only 5,000 to 6,000 yuan per square meter. For a house of 100 square meters, plus a basement, it is only 1 million yuan.

  If "Short Hair" can really be sold to platinum albums smoothly, Xu Zhenghua will be able to get more than 600,000 from Kojima Records in the first settlement only - he can already buy a house in the imperial capital.

   It can only be said that at least in this era, it is really profitable to make music well.

   is far easier than making money as a film and television actor.

"finish watching."

   Du Xuelan suddenly said such a sentence, drawing Xu Zhenghua's attention back.

   Then, she put down the sheet music, stood up suddenly, walked to the piano and sat down, and actually started playing.

   Xu Zhenghua was a little puzzled at first, but soon, when he heard the melody clearly, his eyes widened immediately - she didn't stop playing it.

   After more than a minute, the whole main theme has come out.

   Although it is very jerky and not skilled enough, it should be... a sound is correct.

I go!

   This is off the charts!

   She turned her head back, her brows arrogant, "Is that so?"

   Xu Zhenghua swallowed.

  Nima, what is this called?

  Absolute pitch? Or super talented?

   Read it once, put down the score and play it directly, without a single note wrong?

   But he quickly regained his senses, and realized in an instant - she actually gave himself a slap in the face!

  Nima, I'm here to send you works, will you give me a slap in the face?

   You are sharp enough!

Turning his head to look at Chen Bangdao, his face was somewhat embarrassed, and he wanted to explain, but Xu Zhenghua didn't give him a chance to explain, and immediately applauded, "Wow...this...I can't help but say foul language. !"

   "Brilliant!"

   He raised his thumb up earnestly, as if the corners of his eyes were full of praise.

  Du Xuelan's face showed an undisguised look.

  She's stupid...so cute.

   is the exact opposite of An Xiaojing.

Seeing that Xu Zhenghua didn't have any displeasure, but instead looked full of admiration and praise, Chen Bangdao breathed a sigh of relief, but hurriedly tried to add a few words, "Xue Lan's talent is indeed very good, and she is also very willing to communicate with her peers, just a little bit. Sometimes... maybe her talent is too good, but she doesn't have many friends..."

   This explanation is really weak, bro!

   Why is she so talented that she has no friends, she is so stupid that she has no friends!

   But it's good, I like to cooperate with fools, everyone can get what they need, but it's the most worry-free.

   "No no no, Brother Chen, I don't agree with your statement..."

Xu Zhenghua retorted seriously, "I can feel the love for music in Xue Lan's heart, maybe because you are not a music player, so you don't understand, only your heart is clean, especially clean, just like snow In this way, Lan can really understand music and experience the beauty in music... I understand this, even..." He looked at Du Xuelan, "I'm a little envious."

   When he said this, he himself did not believe it.

   But for so many years, he has been able to speak to people and talk to ghosts.

  Whether he believed it or not, it seemed that both Chen Bangdao and Du Xuelan believed it.

  Du Xuelan's eyes sparkled, and Chen Bangdao also looked relieved.

That's good.

   "So... Xue Lan, do you like this song?"

After hearing this, Du Xuelan thought for a while and said, "I really like the style of music, and I have always wanted to make a dance song, at least as an attempt. But compared to that, I prefer rock and roll, I have always I want to do rock and roll, but Doug never agrees. Hey, do you like rock and roll?"

   "Like! Of course I do! But... you want to play in a band?"

"Well...I haven't thought about it yet..." She looked a little arrogant, but she really thought about it again and asked, "I think your arrangement is very interesting, I also listened to "Short Hair", and followed This "Browsing Eyes" is completely two ideas, can you help me arrange the music? Also, how is your guitar playing?"

"It's easy to arrange, of course I can do it, but if you do rock, I think you still have to do the arrangement yourself, after all, only then can a song best reflect your thoughts, right? "

"That's true!"

   She nodded seriously in approval.

   Seeing that she seemed to want to introduce herself as a confidant, Xu Zhenghua simply turned his head and asked Chen Bang: "Brother Chen... er, Brother Dao, what do you think of this song? Xue Lan also played it just now, do you like it?"

Chen Bangdao answered, "It sounds pretty good to me. Of course, I'm a layman. In terms of music, I completely trust the judgment of the two of you..." He turned to look at Du Xuelan, "How is it? Let Zhenghua give you this song. After the song is released, let’s try the market response, right?”

  Du Xuelan hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Alright, then do it!"

  Gosh, when you first entered the door, how did I think you were gentle and introverted?

  Xu Zhenghua immediately slammed his palms, "That's great!" He took the initiative to reach out and reached out, first shook hands with Chen Bangdao, and then looked at Du Xuelan, "Then... I wish us a happy cooperation?"

   "Happy cooperation!"

  Chen Bangdao responded quickly.

  Du Xuelan also quickly got up and walked over from the piano, and took the initiative to extend her hand, "Happy cooperation! Thank you for the song you wrote to me, I actually like it."

   Strange, she seems a little timid at this time?

   Gentle? Introverted? Proud? sharp?

  What a strange girl!

interesting.
