The great success of "New Journey to the West" made everyone in the branch feel a strong sense of excitement.
Manager An happily patted Jiang Kan on the shoulder and praised him using different words for more than half an hour. He praised Jiang Kan until he was embarrassed and then gradually stopped.
"Commissioner Jiang, you have become a guarantee at the box office. All movies and TV shows that use your songs have become popular! We have received many orders in the past few days, and they are all waiting for you to choose. ah!"
Although Manager An doesn't want Jiang Kan to be the only one in the company who can play, he also doesn't want there to be no DC who can handle the output after Jiang Kan leaves.
But after all, orders for millions and millions of dollars are coming your way, and you can’t do it if you don’t accept them!
Moreover, the branch's capital pool has dried up for a long time, so we can't let the money that comes to our door go unearned, right?
So he looked at this matter with pain and happiness. It was better for Jiang Kan to take more orders than before when all the companies in Yangcheng looked down on him.
"Haha, okay, I'll go take a look after I'm busy. By the way, speaking of taking orders, Xiao Zhao's performance has been pretty good recently. He has taken several orders ranging from 500,000 to 800,000 yuan. You But don’t forget his contribution.”
That's right, as Jiang Kan's self-study progress accelerated during this period, his apprentice Zhao Junping's learning speed also gradually increased. This young man is smart and smart, and he can understand many things in just one lecture. He is indeed a formal student. A major student from the Conservatory of Music, Jiang Kan sometimes felt that this kid was a bit ahead of his time.
"That's definitely not the case. Xiao Zhao is a good prospect that I am optimistic about, haha."
Manager An is also very happy. After all, no matter good or bad, there are always new people who can take on important responsibilities, and the pressure on his heart will be less.
Also, people originally didn't want such a young man to take over their orders, but as soon as they heard that he was Jiang Kan's apprentice, their attitude immediately changed. It can be said that it is very embarrassing.
"Kokoko~"
While he was talking, there was a knock on the door of the commissioner's room.
"Please come in."
Jiang Kan shouted.
When Cao Cao arrived, Zhao Junping walked in with his notebook.
"Ah, Manager An is here too. Hello, I'm here to see Commissioner Jiang."
He said hello to Manager An respectfully.
"Haha, I won't bother you anymore, I have some time to go beforehand."
Mr. An looked at the young man's clear eyes, smiled with satisfaction, patted his shoulder and walked out of the room, closing the door from the outside.
"Master, would you please take a look at my latest work? Because of you, Party A specified an opening song made using the "ghost animal" method, so I tried to make it. "
Zhao Junping excitedly handed over the notebook in his hand like a treasure.
"This is a sci-fi animation about humans discovering an alien spacecraft when they land on the moon, and then acquiring alien technology and developing rapidly."
"But at the same time, an alarm was triggered, allowing aliens to learn of the matter and start sending fleets to invade the earth."
"So the producers requested that the opening song have a sci-fi style and be sung with a voice with a mechanical voice."
Zhao Junping said, clicking on a song on the screen.
"In the past, we used human voices to record them directly, and then processed them with computers to synthesize them into the kind of electronic sound they needed. But they made it clear that they wanted to do it in a weird way, and to find a new way to catch people's attention! After all, this invention You who are an art form belong to our company.”
At this time, the picture on the screen has appeared. An animated picture of a group of robot-like alien pilots passing through the vast sea of stars to the moon and attacking the human lunar base.
At this time, lyrics sung by a slightly stiff mechanical voice also came from the computer speaker:
"TheyreevlnsnDsgse..."
"oh?"
Jiang Kanting
As he listened, his brows widened.
Originally, this kid had a good musical background, and coupled with the solid knowledge training from Professor Wang during this period, this foreign song sounded exceptionally good, full of momentum, and full of imagination about the universe and science fiction.
"Here, this is a synthetic sound effect you created yourself using a computer, right?"
Jiang Kan could tell right away that this sound was definitely not an electronic sound synthesized from something sung by a human singer.
"Yes, I used a computer to create electronic sounds word by word, and then used tuning software to adjust their pitch, length, timbre and other attributes, and spliced them together to form a song!"
Zhao Junping was also very excited at this time and kept telling Jiang Kan his creative methods.
"You used your voice in the song "Normal DSCO" before, but I don't think it's good to use your voice without your consent. We don't want to use the voice of other singers. They don’t have the copyright, so I just made my own electronic sound library, all using synthetic sounds, so there won’t be any copyright infringement issues!”
"Huh? You even made an electronic sound library yourself?"
Jiang Kan was really shocked now!
He had heard from the system before that there is a kind of ghost genre on earth that does not use real human voices to cut out, but uses an original lexicon of electronic sounds, and uses them to combine them to form the singing in the song. sound!
They (the ghost lovers on earth) even packaged every electronic sound source library into a virtual singer image!
The most famous virtual singer is Hatsune Miku, a sound source library developed based on Yamaha's Voclod series of speech synthesis programs on Earth!
Another virtual singer is a female virtual singer developed based on the same Voclod series speech synthesis program - Luo Tianyi!
In the introduction of the system, these two virtual singers have swept the animation and music enthusiast groups in East and Southeast Asia with lightning speed, especially those otakus and otakus who are addicted to the second dimension. They are all attracted by these two virtual singers. Every song is exciting!
Jiang Kan had been planning some time ago whether he would take the lead in establishing a set of such a virtual speech synthesis program.
Unexpectedly, his apprentice Zhao Junping didn't rely on such a program, but just used ordinary music production software to polish a song out of nowhere?
Hey, this guy is really a genius!
Jiang Kan looked at Zhao Junping a little differently, making his apprentice feel a little hairy all over!
"Master, Master...you are glaring at me like this. Is there anything wrong with me? After all, I have thought about it. The pronunciation produced in this way is not natural at all, and it also seems a bit fake. It has no pronunciation of a real person at all. So plump and round..."
Zhao Junping, who was originally very confident in his work and wanted to be praised by his master, was now a little less confident due to Jiang Kan's pointed eyes.
He was afraid that his master would slap him in the face and scold him for doing evil things instead of doing good things. He did not study the knowledge of composition properly, but instead engaged in these crooked things! new
"Ha, of course there's nothing wrong with you! I mean, it's really great that you can come up with such an idea! You can actually come up with such a great idea that's beyond the times. I've found a treasure!"
Jiang Kan was very happy.
His apprentice got it right and actually created a new prototype of Voclod!
As long as I help him straighten this thing out, and then seriously create the voice of an original electronic singer, then he will really create a new branch of ghosts.
He had a good discussion with Zhao Junping again, and also explained to him the advanced ghost and beast technology of the earth that he had obtained from the system, and asked him to study the relevant content when he had time.
And told him that this road is very promising, once
Once a system of ghost videos is created, it will naturally be learned and used by Everbright netizens, and then carried forward.
Jiang Kan has already planned to open a company in his father's name to create Voclod software systems and electronic singer sound sources.
I was a little worried that it would be tiring to do all this work by myself.
But now that Zhao Junping has shown his talent in this area, let's leave it to him. When the time comes, he will also be given some shares in the new company. Of course, it would be better if he is willing to change jobs and go to do this specifically. This is something we will talk about when the time comes.
"But does this count as poaching the company?"
Jiang Kan was happily troubled, and finally decided to leave it at that time.
These days, movie fans in China who usually like to watch movies are in luck.
The name of "New Journey to the West" has been widely spread among them.
Many people were moved by the touching love story, and many people were amused by the nonsensical performances.
There were also some people who were immersed in the movie's ending song "The Love of My Life" and couldn't help themselves, and praised it as the most touching movie song in recent years besides "A Laugh in the Sea".
Jiang Kan has also accepted many interviews from the media in recent days, all about this song.
Some reporters asked him if he had any other movie soundtracks, so that they could prepare early.
Director Zhang Mushan is already smiling. Jiang Kan helped him in both filmings, which greatly increased the popularity of his works. Not only his reputation has also skyrocketed with "The New Journey to the West", and the box office has been soaring. It also made him feel even more excited.
The box office on the second day also reached almost 3 million. On the third day, it dropped slightly on Wednesday, then started to pick up again on Thursday and Friday, and reached a peak on Saturday - 5 million! Before the week is over, the total box office has already exceeded 21 million!
At the same time, another film has completed post-production, and the director of the upcoming film is looking forward to it when he sees this box office.
That's right, that's Jiang Kan, who starred as the third male lead in "The World Is Like a Picturesque".
"Haha, this Xiao Jiang, just by singing a song for others, their results have become so good, then he is participating in our movie, wouldn't it mean that more people will come to support him? "
Director Hu Bin looked at the news on the Internet, stroking his big beard, and the smile in his eyes almost overflowed.
He was really glad that he was so decisive at the time and recruited Jiang Kan, who had no acting experience, into the crew, and even had him replace the original third male actor Aze against all objections.
"This Aze, fortunately I replaced him, and his relationship with the mistress was revealed in the variety show. Now even the big boss's daughter has completely fallen out with him and kicked him out of the variety show. What a shame. A man who can’t control his lower body!”
While he was glad that he had wisely and decisively recruited Jiang Kan, he was also glad that he had the foresight to kick that black sheep out of his team.
Director Hu Hubin was so impressed with his vision at this time. How could he see people so accurately? It was really worth having a good look tonight!
He picked up an intercom phone on the table and dialed a brief number.
"Hey, Lao Zhang, haha, I'm Lao Hu. Haha, I'm not looking for a drink with you, I just want to tell you something."
"Have you watched "Journey to the West" recently? How did it feel? Haha, you thought it was good too, right? Then have you heard the ending song? It's the "Love of a Lifetime"."
"Have you never heard such an awesome ending song? Hahahaha, I think so too. Jiang Kan is really a genius, being able to praise a movie without a big star to such an extent..."
"Well, yes, you guessed it right. I want to borrow his inspiration. When our crew promotes our movie, we can also promote Jiang Kan's character a little bit! His role as the protagonist, the teacher, is very special. Heavy
Want it! "
"Yes, rub off on his warmth... This isn't called rubbing off. It was originally his own performance. If you rub off on his own heat, can it be considered rubbing off? Hahahaha!"
"Yes, yes, yes, that's it. When promoting, promote his role more. Let's swap his headshot on the poster... with the position of the second male lead, haha. The publicity effect will be better this way."
"Will the second male lead be unhappy? It's okay. They are all in the entertainment industry. He must be able to handle it! Even if he can't handle it clearly, his manager will let him handle it clearly. During this time, Jiang Kan If he is so popular, who would go against him, right? Even if he is not a singer and does not rely on Jiang Kan's composition to make a living, he has many friends in the music industry. Who would be so reluctant to confront a music dad who can become a famous singer? Woolen cloth?"
"Well, okay, okay, that's it. Haha, promote him more. If you want to interview him, it's okay. I believe he won't refuse... That's it. I'll wait for your good news. Bye!"
After hanging up the phone, the proud look on Huo Bin's face became even stronger.
