"Come on, come on, let's meet in ninety-eight,
Come on, come on, let’s meet in 1998,
Meet in the sweet spring breeze,
Meet the eternal youth,
Hearts meet, hearts meet…”
On the TV, mainland queen Naying joined hands with Hong Kong and Taiwan queen Wang Fei to perform a very classic song.
Regardless of personality, the former has a thick and simple tone, while the latter has a gorgeous and ethereal tone. Each has its own merits.
The two queens competed on the same stage, which was also one of the signature programs of the 1998 Spring Festival Gala.
Before that, the trio of Mainland King Mao Nuan, Xiangjiang King Liu Dehua, and Taiwan Love Song Prince Zhang Xinzhe sang together, which was also a highlight.
In addition, the Spring Festival Gala at this time is different from the Spring Festival Gala in the Internet era. Language programs are the main attraction of the Spring Festival Gala at the moment.
Therefore, all singers who can appear on the Spring Festival Gala are top-notch in the Chinese music scene.
Of course, there is no term for 'top' yet. King, Queen, Little Heavenly King, and Little Heavenly Queen are the mainstream terms.
After a while, Naying and Wang Fei left the stage, and the dance program came next.
However, Silence is still immersed in the previous program.
"Singing really well."
After a long while, there was a silent sigh of praise.
Five years have passed, and Shen Mo has grown into a big girl. Last summer, she was admitted to the Central Academy of Music as she wished and became a freshman in the composition department.
That’s right, Shen Mo didn’t choose the piano department, but the composition department.
"Sister, how is your record project going?"
On the side, Li Jie, who had become a big boy, asked with a smile.
Five years ago, Li Jie's surgery was successful. It took half a year of post-operative conditioning, and his vocal cord function basically returned to normal.
There is basically no problem with daily communication and the like.
As for the hearing problem, although it has recovered to some extent, it is still necessary to carry hearing aids with you.
"It's not that easy to release records."
Silence rolled her eyes. If a singer wants to release a record, he can't just record songs.
Record songs, record songs. Before recording songs, you must have a work, right?
Once you have a work, you have to find someone to arrange the music. After all, the arrangement is also the soul of a song. If the arrangement is not good, no matter how good the lyrics and music are, it will be ruined.
Therefore, the choice of producer is very important.
Generally speaking, taking an album of ten songs as an example, the cost of recording and arranging songs is about 70,000 to 80,000 yuan.
Don't think it's expensive. A song can't be finished in just one or two days from production to finished product. Many songs can be sung dozens of times during recording, which is not too much.
There are very, very few that can be done once and for all.
Even top singers can record a new song in one day, which is considered fast.
Recording studios usually charge by the hour. The better the recording studio, the more expensive it is. For ten songs, the recording fee will be tens of thousands less.
That's it, not counting the producer's fees.
If you add in the producer’s labor costs, you can’t even beat it by 100,000 yuan.
What is the concept of 100,000 yuan in 1998?
I can buy half a house.
However, recording songs is only the first step in releasing a record.
After recording the song, you have to find a factory to burn the finished song.
These two steps can be done by yourself if you have money.
But subsequent distribution channels and publicity channels are not simply measured by money.
The distribution of goods in terminals such as video stores and bookstores cannot be done well by going it alone.
In fact, strictly speaking, Li Jie does not have no resources at all. As a best-selling author, he has a good relationship with publishers.
The publishing house also has audio and video resources.
It's not impossible to entrust them with the responsibility of distributing goods.
However, although books, audio and video are not separated into separate companies, compared to professional record companies, publishing houses have more popular promotion capabilities.
In an era when the media is not developed enough, the fragrance of wine is also afraid of the depth of the alley.
If you don't have strong publicity ability and can sing well, you may not be popular.
"How about I write you some songs?"
Li Jie knew that Mo Mo wanted to become a singer-songwriter, otherwise, she would not have signed up for the composition department.
"you?"
Silently and suspiciously, he looked at Li Jie.
Hard!
The fist is hard!
Seeing Shen Mo's suspicious look, Li Jie raised his eyebrows.
What a guy, you dare to question him.
"Wait!"
After saying that, Li Jie stood up from the chair and walked into the bedroom. Soon he came out with a big notebook.
"bawl."
"See for yourself."
"These are some songs I wrote when I was bored. They should be more suitable for you."
Seeing the composition book thrown in front of her eyes, Shen Mo still maintained a skeptical expression. In her impression, her brother had never been exposed to similar professional courses.
Although my brother has read a lot of professional books, can he teach himself how to write songs?
Then, Silence slowly opened the book.
invisible Wings?
……7565……
"Mi... abet... Duo... pull... Duo Duo... Xi... pull"
Looking at the first notes of the simplified score, Shen Mo hummed subconsciously. After humming, she immediately discovered that the melody at the beginning of this song was very good.
"Every time, I am strong in the loneliness.
Every time, even if it hurts, there will be no tears
I know
I have always had a pair of invisible wings
Take me flying through despair
Don't think about it
they have a beautiful sun
i saw
The sunset will also change every day..."
At this point, Silence suddenly stopped humming, and she looked at Li Jie in surprise.
"Did you really write this song?"
She asked this not because she didn't believe her brother, but because she thought it was too unbelievable.
Although she is still a freshman, the years of music lessons she took before going to college were not in vain.
She still has the most basic ability to appreciate music.
There is no doubt that this is a very high-quality song, with a simple, clean and catchy melody, and well-written lyrics.
Especially the lyrics, although very short, create an extremely vivid image.
Do not succumb to setbacks, be hopeful and have the courage to forge ahead.
She was not surprised that the lyrics were well written. She knew her brother's writing was beautiful since she was in junior high school.
Why is it so popular?
My brother's writing style is one of the key factors.
What really surprised Mo Mo was Qu Qu. His younger brother was deaf and mute when he was a child. Later, after treatment, the symptoms of his deaf mute improved a lot.
But my brother's hearing is still worse than ordinary people.
And for an excellent songwriter, it is definitely not possible to just work behind closed doors.
With his younger brother's condition, being able to write such a nice melody really made Shen Silen raise eyebrows.
"I didn't write it, could it be you?"
Li Jie chuckled, crossed his arms and said.
"How about it? Just tell me, do you want it?"
With that said, Li Jie made a gesture of taking back the composition book.
"Of course!"
Seeing this, Shen Mo held the book in his arms and protected it tightly.
