Hangcheng, in an ordinary residential area.
A young man who looked like a college student was tinkering with something on his computer.
He was seen holding the mouse in his right hand, moving it back and forth on the desktop quickly, while his eyes were focused on the screen.
On the screen, there was a software professionally used for making music soundtracks. The buttons, squares, and waveforms on it were quickly manipulated by dragging his mouse.
The corners of the young man's mouth gradually revealed a curve, and the light reflected from the screen flashed in his eyes.
"Haha, done!"
Xiao Chen happily slapped the table, then leaned back strategically, leaned firmly on the back of the chair, and shouted.
"Chen Yuxin! What are you yelling at? What time is it? Are you still awake and planning to skip class tomorrow?"
His mother's shout came from outside the door, her voice full of anger.
"Mom, I'm going to sleep now!"
Chen Yuxin shouted nonchalantly at the dormitory door, then turned around and looked happily at his masterpiece on the screen.
They were chunks of audio that looked like chopstick strips, and he put them together according to a strange pattern.
"Haha, I have finally finished this "ghost" music. Now I will send it to Station B to let them see how awesome the two of me, the number one ghost in the new era, are! "
After Xiao Chen completed the operation, the ghost song he had just finished was uploaded.
Looking at the words "under review" under the newly uploaded video on his Bilibili account page, his mouth curved again, and then he closed the computer with satisfaction and went to bed.
the next day.
Zhang Lingling got up very early and came to her own separate office in the company to start working.
Because she accompanied Jiang Kan on a trip to Yanjing, she now has a lot of arrears on hand, more than half of which must be completed today. Today she plans to stay up all night and have coffee early in the morning. I've had two glasses of wine.
"Kokoko."
Not long after she sat down to deal with the documents in her hands, there was a gentle knock on the office door.
"Oh, what's the matter? I'm really annoyed... Come in!"
She gathered her emotions and shouted towards the door.
"Hey, Sister Zhang, I have something to report to you..."
A tall and thin girl about twenty-five years old came in with a tablet computer and stood respectfully in front of Zhang Lingling's desk.
"I'm very busy. If you need anything, just tell me."
Zhang Lingling just looked at her, then turned her head and continued busy with her own business.
"Oh, Minister Zhang, didn't you mention to us that you should always pay attention to the trends in the market and notify you immediately as soon as a new high-quality "Ghost Beast" song is released? "
The little girl's voice was a little trembling, probably because she was in awe from the bottom of her heart for the OL in front of her, who usually never smiled in the company.
She held out the tablet in both hands.
"Today we discovered a ghost video on Bilibili that suddenly became popular overnight. It was posted around 11:30 last night. As of 9 o'clock this morning, it had already been viewed more than 50,000 times!"
She pointed at the tablet screen, and there was a sense of offering a treasure in the semantics.
"Oh? A ghost song? It was played 50,000 times overnight?"
Zhang Lingling raised her eyebrows and was immediately attracted by this matter. She picked up the tablet and put it in front of her eyes.
"The song title "White Rose" quotes the source of the singer's voice: Wang Yuchang?"
"He's actually a fan of Xiao Wang? Does he think it's more appropriate for Xiao Wang to sing this song? Let me listen to it first..."
She clicked the play button.
Then the prelude to "White Rose" sounded in this small office.
Then comes the lyrics.
As expected one
Like this, Wang Yuchang's voice sang the lyrics of this song.
Obviously, Xiao Wang was not really singing this song, but the UP host cut out the song he sang before word by word, and after tuning it, pieced it together.
The feeling of rupture is very obvious, which is often said to be "fake at first glance".
But this UP owner named "Yuxin Loves to Eat Big Pumpkin" has mastered every word and word very well, which is much better than many other shoddy works that have gradually emerged recently!
At least every lyric is sung and all the words are in tune!
It's fake, but if you don't listen carefully, you might even think that this is Wang Yuchang himself performing this song in a funny way!
"Yo? Not bad."
While listening to the song, Zhang Lingling gently tapped the table with the index and middle fingers of her right hand.
Then about halfway through the song, she even started nodding her head little by little, matching the rhythm of the song.
"Very good, not bad. This UP master has very profound skills. He has mastered this song so well!"
She then clicked on the work homepage of "Yuxin Loves to Eat Big Pumpkins" and looked at his other historical works.
"Oh, it turns out that he was an up player in the musical instrument category before, specializing in strange non-mainstream instruments such as screaming chickens, suonas, and single-stringed harps..."
Zhang Lingling was talking to herself with great interest while browsing his homepage.
"Oh? Before this, he also had a weird work. It was Liu Yiliang's "Love in the Deep Winter"? It was in his own voice? Ha, is this guy a fan of Liu Yiliang? How did he choose to adapt the songs? is his?"
With that said, she clicked on the video.
Then he was defeated by the poor tuning skills. It was obvious that this was just an early attempt of his. The sound sounded weird, the rhythm was wrong, and the key was out of order...
"Well, I can only say that this guy's progress has been very fast. The second ghost song is already so outstanding."
Zhang Lingling clicked on the page of "White Rose" again and found that the number of plays had reached more than 51,000 times.
In other words, in such a short period of time, the number of views has increased by more than a thousand!
"Hey, he's a talent!"
Xiao Zhang subconsciously touched his smooth chin, opened this ghost song and listened to it again.
"Well, he has a future and is worth cultivating."
After listening to it twice, a determined look appeared in Zhang Lingling's eyes.
"Xiao Liu, go and try to contact this, what is this... "Yuxin loves to eat big pumpkins" and ask him if he is willing to accept a trial contract from our Feiyang Entertainment. We can provide him with professional training and Guidance, he became a contracted "Ghost Beast" producer of our company. "
"As for the time...the probation period is three months, if passed, the contract will be signed for five years. If you perform well, you can adjust and sign a new contract after three years."
Zhang Lingling had completely withdrawn from the appreciation state at this time. She tapped her fingers on the table seriously, organized her thoughts and words, and issued orders to Xiao Liu.
"Okay, Director Zhang, I'll contact him right away and I'll definitely bring him to our company!"
Xiao Liu also stood up solemnly, with his chest raised and his head raised, expressing his determination to Vice Minister Zhang.
"Well, okay, let's do that. Keep an eye on him, don't let other companies get ahead of you, go ahead."
After the little girl quickly left the office and closed the door from the outside, Zhang Lingling took off the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose and rubbed her eyebrows heavily.
"Huh... very good, I found another good seedling."
In the recent period, to be precise, since Jiang Kan performed "Ordinary DISCO" on the stage of "Xia Guo Good Singer" two months ago, some netizens have begun to imitate Jiang Kan. Kan, he made a new boat thing like "Ghost Beast".
At the beginning,
Everyone's production level is not very good.
The produced "ghost animal" works are really just like ghosts singing. You can't tell that this is a song at all. The ghosts cry and howl without any sense of music.
People who didn't know it thought he was suffering from hysteria and his speech was slurred.
But later, as time went by, some people who had experience in using music software and especially liked the unique and novel art of ghost animals joined in, and their production skills became more and more proficient.
As a result, some relatively mature ghost and animal works have appeared in front of netizens.
Especially some time ago, after an UP owner who used to imitate famous song composition methods to create new songs fell in love with Guiwu and reproduced Jiang Kan's "Ordinary DISCO" with the voice of a well-known domestic singer, Xia Guo's entire online world Everything is boiling!
Everyone praised his superb technique, which is very close to the smoothness of the original work.
Later, the UP owner named "Cyberpunk Big Orange" also successively produced several ghost versions of currently popular songs, which also won unanimous praise from domestic netizens, especially users of Bilibili.
Just when everyone thought that this was a new online gameplay spontaneously evoked by netizens, more netizens began to try their own crazy things.
However, Xinghai Music announced in a high profile that it had signed an artist contract with the "Cyberpunk Big Orange" for three years at a price of five million yuan!
This was like a stone thrown into the calm water, causing quite a ripple in the entire entertainment industry!
"Wow, it turns out you can make money by being a ghost!"
"Guiwu turns out to be an art form. You see, Xinghai has started to sign up as the master of Guiwu UP!"
"Damn it, he can do it, but we can't do it? It's not like singing, which requires a good voice, it can be done by anyone who can do it!"
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and netizens, especially those at Station B, went crazy!
They began to make and learn ghost songs one after another. Jiang Kan's "Ordinary DISCO" was used by them as a teaching material for learning, and even as a Bible-like thing. In just over two months, it was played 2,000 times. Thousands of times!
The boss of Station B also discovered huge business opportunities. After a period of careful consideration, he issued an announcement stating that the website will officially open a new "Ghost Animal" section in early July. Netizens are welcome to contribute and share their experiences. Every bit of ghost art!
Before this, the ghost videos posted by these netizens were all posted in the music area.
At first, no one thought there was anything wrong with it. There were many people watching and the discussion participants were very lively.
But as time went by, everyone felt that there were more and more of these ghost songs, but the yield rate was very low. Most of them were individual early creations of mixed quality, which greatly disrupted the content of the music section and also aroused the dissatisfaction of some original music section UP owners and viewers. dissatisfied. .
Therefore, the decision to establish a new ghost animal area has been widely supported and affirmed by a large number of website users.
At the same time, he also relied on his first-come-first-served advantage to take the lead in signing cooperation contracts with a small group of ghost authors who had emerged in the past two months, and set the price for their works in the next few years at a very attractive price@
It was under this social background that Zhang Lingling persuaded the company's upper management to pay attention to ghosts and animals.
After all, the singer Jiang Kan she led was the founder of this brand-new art, so her idea of creating a separate ghost creation branch under the music department was quickly agreed by the leaders, and she was allowed to Give it a try.
Therefore, she asked her agents to pay more attention to the movements of the evil genius UP owner, and also why Xiao Liu just reported to her that he had discovered a new good idea.
"I wonder how Kan will react after hearing such a blunt and stupid song?"
After Xiao Liu left the office, Zhang Lingling did not immediately continue the unfinished work. Instead, she supported her chin with both hands and looked out the window, imagining what if Jiang Kan had just seen such a rudimentary ghost song. What kind of expression would it be.
After all, the previous song "Ordinary DISCO" was so complete, and the lyrics and tone of the training were also so perfect. Apart from the fact that you can tell with one ear that this is not a real person's voice, there is nothing wrong with it. Other shortcomings!
"Haha, he is indeed the man that I, Zhang Lingling, can like. He can actually create a new art form on his own. In the future, he will be regarded as the founder of ghosts and beasts. Ha ha ha ha!"
