""My Deskmate"?"
"No, I've already heard this song. It's a nostalgic campus-style song that's more folk-oriented. It's okay to be used as a soundtrack for a youth campus movie, but it seems a bit nondescript to be used as a standalone song... …”
""May you be happy and prosperous"?"
"This song is pretty good, but I haven't mastered it yet. Besides... I still need to study whether this song, which is obviously a New Year's song, is suitable for charting." ŴŴŴ.
"Then only "Mortal Song" is left. This song..."
Jiang Kan put his chin on his hand and recalled the content of this song.
"Hey, it's really good! Not to mention, this song is really suitable for singers of my age. Not only is the tune ups and downs, but the lyrics are also very thick and full of life insights... This is good, this is good!"
Jiang Kan nodded, determined to use this song as the song he released this time.
"Ding!"
"This system has discovered that the host is about to compete for the monthly song rankings in January, and has issued a new task: [Official debut]!"
"Task content: Rank in the top ten in Xia Kingdom's monthly new song list for January!"
"
Rewards will be distributed based on the final ranking in January!
First place: one purple lottery chance and a random music treasure chest!
Second place: one blue lottery chance and a random music treasure box!
Third place: one green lottery chance and a random music treasure box!
Fourth to tenth place: one white lottery chance and one random music treasure chest!
"
The system issued the task and then disappeared.
"Yo? Isn't this the same as the mission reward from last month? Well, let's see what kind of ranking we get this time."
Jiang Kan quickly understood the task content and rewards, and continued to communicate with Zhang Lingling about the song release.
"Well, I happen to have a piece of music I've worked on before. I'll revise it and improve it when I get back. The day after tomorrow... no, I'll send it to you tomorrow night. If there's no problem, we'll start recording tomorrow night and try to send it out early the day after tomorrow. What do you think? "
"Okay, even so, we have already lost two days. Hey, this Xinghai is really hateful. It caught us off guard... I hope your song this time can get a good reception like before." Let’s rank.”
Zhang Lingling nodded in agreement and said that she had no good solution.
Originally, strictly speaking, it was supposed to be the singer who worked for the manager at the Magic City headquarters to sing the song, but after pushing and pushing, it was finally decided that Ling Buwei was snatched over by Jiang Kan's song, and the company He should be given a reward, so this spot was still assigned to Jiang Kan.
Because the matter was urgent, Jiang Kan did not go home that night, so he started composing the music and lyrics of "Mortal Song" at his workstation in the company.
Zhang Lingling urgently contacted her colleagues in the recording studio who were on vacation for the New Year's Day holiday, as well as relevant publicity and promotion personnel.
This is the case for people in the entertainment industry. Basically, there is no big distinction between holidays and working days. You have to work when you have something to do. People will not stop listening to music and watching TV shows just because you are on vacation.
That night, Jiang Kan worked hard until 3:30 in the middle of the night, and finally completed all the preparations.
After all, he had already tried to write the score of this song before, and this time he just had to continue to improve and adjust some subtle details.
Then, he lay down on the big sofa in the company's lounge and slept until twelve o'clock noon the next day, keeping his spirits up.
Colleagues in the recording studio returned to the company in twos and threes after two or three o'clock in the afternoon. Jiang Kan handed them the score and began to discuss the instruments needed for performance, precautions, playing and singing techniques needed, etc. I was busy until after six o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhang Lingling ordered takeout, and a Cantonese-style restaurant delivered some very light dinner. She specifically chose this restaurant so that there would be no spicy food such as chili pepper in the meal, which would affect the performance of Jiang Kan's voice when recording songs at night.
Everything was ready, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
Colleagues in the recording studio have already communicated with Jiang Kan everything about recording the song, and have worked together to complete the instrumental part of the song.
He stood in the small cubicle behind the glass window of the recording studio, facing the microphone, ready to start recording.
First the electronic keyboard came in, and a swirling and rising tune sounded loudly and grandly in Jiang Kan's headphones, gradually generating the atmosphere from scratch and guiding it upward, starting to arouse the emotions of the singer and the listener.
Then the drum set came in. After a burst of intense drum beats, the electronic keyboard added the "ding ding ding ding" tone and began to render the emotions of the second section. After several cycles, the melodious bamboo flute appeared, adding the sound of the song. A hint of Jianghu atmosphere was exaggerated.
"
You and I are all mortals living in this world
Running around all day long with no time to spare
Since you are not a fairy, you will inevitably have distracting thoughts.
Morality is placed on both sides and the word "profit" is placed in the middle.
"
Jiang Kan's singing sounded at the right time, and he began his own performance period.
He imitated the original song provided by the system, controlled his voice not to be too loud, and prepared for a sudden explosion.
The first few lines bring a bit of joking and self-deprecating tone, giving the singing a slightly flowery tone, trying to convey the feeling of experiencing the hardships of running around in the world as much as possible to gain the resonance of the listeners.
"
How many men turn their anger into beauty
How many forest birds have become flying swallows
Life is too short, why should we love so hard?
Who can I complain to when my lover disappears?
"
The second verse of the lyrics, with a hint of anger and bitterness, sings about the suffering that mortals endure for the sake of love, and the unwillingness and resentment in their hearts.
It must be said that Jiang Kan's ability to understand music is indeed super strong. After listening to the original song several times combined with the lyrics, he has a good understanding of the singer's creative concept and emotional control during singing. At this point Very well done too.
On the other side of the glass wall, the main sound engineer gave him a big thumbs up, saying that everything is going well so far, keep up the good work.
"
When have you ever seen the world change for people?
Does having the face you dream of count as having spring?
"
Jiang Kan found the feeling and began to close his eyes, covering the big earphone earmuffs with both hands, and sang without emotion.
The helplessness in the song about human relationships and the world, the lamentation about the suffering of running around in life, and the open-mindedness of persuading and enlightening those who are in love are all sung by him seriously into the lyrics.
Along with the rhythm of the song, he couldn't help but recall his past forty years of life.
Yes, people work hard all day long and have no time to spare in order to support their families.
But life is so short, why should we hurt ourselves for other people's mistakes and make the already bitter and difficult life even more bitter?
Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs.
The world will not change its operating rules just because of someone's cries and complaints.
Live well, live well in the present, actively participate in the world, and face various challenges in life with a more calm and open-minded mind. This is the correct attitude towards life!
The more he sang, the more he felt that the song had flavor and was full of the lyricist's insights and expressions of life. He couldn't help but gradually become completely immersed in it, and the singing became more and more full of open-mindedness and open-mindedness.
This song was sung by him with the flavor of a world-awakening message. Not only was he deeply immersed in it, but even the sound engineers and Zhang Lingling standing in the recording studio were mesmerized by it.
