As a result, a large number of follow-up works will appear in front of the public in batches overnight. This is the uniqueness and style expansion of new trend music.
Liu Qingshan's song will allow Universal Music to research and compose this type of song before its official release, and then take advantage of the next new pop trend and get the first pot of gold.
This is the commercial advantage of having a head start on the popular music code. When the people from Universal Records see this, they will naturally fall into a state of crazy excitement.
Liu Qingshan rushed back at this time, and he had already been mentally prepared for the guests' reaction.
After a brief exchange of greetings, he stated his attitude straightforwardly: "You have also heard the work. I can guarantee that the subsequent eight songs will also have the same quality, but can you give me a record that exceeds Warner Records?" Publicity efforts and specific measures?”
Blainey replied without any hesitation: "We will treat this record with the same attitude as Michael Jackson. Whether it is publicity or payment, we will sign this contract according to the treatment of a super singer!"
Of course Liu Qingshan would not believe his exaggerated words, because he knew very well that his influence in the music industry was still far away from that of Jackson.
But at the same time, he also understood that Blaineken must be sincere when he made such a promise, and this sincerity was what he valued most.
"I don't dare to ask for Michael's treatment. At least for now, I don't have his fame and status in the industry. You don't have to worry too much about my treatment. My requirements are not high, as long as the terms are slightly higher than those for the first album. Already!"
He was able to say it so bluntly because he had a very good personal relationship with Blaney. Otherwise, he would have only released his team of lawyers and agents to negotiate in detail, and strive for greater interests through several rounds of negotiations bit by bit. .
His original intention of releasing these two albums was more motivated by the increasingly strong voice of the support group, not simply for his own interests.
Another point is that he is far from having much say in the European and American markets, so the next point of interest is more towards the issuer, which is the most ideal state of cooperation.
Moreover, he values sales more than financial gains. The higher the proportion of the other party, the more active he will be in future publicity. Not everyone in the Universal promotional video has a personal friendship with him.
"In addition, Miss Jin's album will have two English songs, but the recording has not started yet. I can also guarantee the quality and popularity, so I demand the same treatment for her album!"
Before Blainey could say anything, the people around him showed embarrassment: "Mr. Liu, we all recognize Miss Jin's ability, but is it too demanding to ask for equal treatment? After all, our Western music There are strict grade standards for the release of works!"
Liu Qingshan did not show the displeasure they imagined. On the contrary, the smile on his face became more obvious: "I think the position is misunderstood. My request only refers to the announcement and does not include the issue of dividend ratio. !」
Blainey was obviously relieved, "So that's what happened! Since we still use the bundled sales method, your and Miss Jin's albums are tied together, and we can still do this."
The person who just spoke was obviously much more relaxed: "It's just a matter of publicity, no problem, but can we listen to Miss Jin's work first?"
"She won't be here until after 11 o'clock tonight because she has work to do!"
"It doesn't matter. We will wait no matter how late we come. We just want to take advantage of the jet lag tonight!"
Blainey asked, "Mr. Liu, it seems you are very confident in Miss Jin's two English songs?"
"Well, I understand my works. Maybe her songs have more market potential. I can guarantee that they will surprise you!" Liu Qingshan did not hide the pride on his face.
"If this is the case, we can consider asking her to participate in more local music programs in the United States and Laos!"
Liu Qingshan immediately shook his head: "She is too busy with work like me, but she doesn't have a lot of time to focus on
On to the music! By the way, one of the two songs needs to be sung with Taylor. She can spare three to four days next month to rush to Los Angeles to record! "
"A few days are enough for her to participate in one or two TV music programs."
"No, she's still going to the Philadelphia Symphony concert and another concert in New York."
"Is that the song "Victory"?"
"Yes, she has received similar invitations for six games, but she can only participate in these two games due to time constraints!"
"Is it possible to arrange for her to sing a song from the new album at the concert?"
"There is no performance time for popular songs at a symphony concert, right?"
"No, strictly speaking, this is the case, but large-scale symphony concerts are divided into two halves. If a piece of pop music with live symphony accompaniment is arranged, it is not unprecedented. Liu Qingshan can consider it. I personally think , if such an opportunity is obtained, it will be of great help to Ms. Jin’s future record sales, and will also be conducive to the promotion of her fame!”
"You are the boss of the three major record companies. Wouldn't it be easier for you to take the lead?"
Blainey shook his head with a smile: "On the contrary, the more you belong to a company, the harder it is to open your mouth, because if you agree to one company, other companies will follow suit, which will make it very difficult for the concert organizers, who dare not Open this hole!"
"I understand! But I don't know which person I should look for!" Liu Qingshan said, staring into Blainey's eyes.
"You can try to find my teacher, he may have such connections!"
Blaney's teacher was his predecessor Heinz, who had been in the music industry for decades.
Of course, it is more likely that this person must have performed similar operations, otherwise Blaney would not have mentioned him.
Liu Qingshan knew something in his mind and stopped continuing the topic: "Let's go and check out the hotel you arranged for me first!"
Someone laughed and said, "Mr. Liu, do you still need to see it? It must be the dad hotel in Shanghai, right?"
Liu Qingshan had met this person before, "Hahaha, you still understand me! Yes, this is the hotel!"
"That's no problem. We've all stayed at this chain store and the conditions are pretty good."
After arranging the hotel room, it was time for dinner.
Liu Qingshan directly took the guest to a well-known restaurant near the hotel. Of course, it was a Chinese restaurant focusing on local food style.
The local cuisine here is also called local cuisine. It is moderately salty, original, honest and delicious. It is very different from the Cantonese and Sichuan cuisine that foreigners are more often exposed to.
This group of foreigners were all very satisfied with their meal. Although they were feeling sleepy after eating and drinking, they still insisted on waiting until they got to Jin Xishan's place to call it a day.
She is also familiar with Blainey, so there is no obstacle to communication, and she gets into the state much faster.
It is said that she has been recording all day today, and she has been practicing singing most of the time. Fortunately, she is not an ordinary person anymore, so she does not have to worry about excessive fatigue of her vocal cords.
The song to be recorded that night is called "You Sound Good Toe" (I Feel It's You), a rhythmic and upbeat song that was not supposed to come out twelve years later.
From this we can see how different its melody arrangement and orchestration are from the pop music of 2007.
Moreover, this song is the kind of dance music that is so explosive that just listening to the intro is enough to brainwash you.
The direct feeling it brings to people is physical and mental pleasure. Listening to it will make you feel extremely excited from beginning to end. It is also a fast-paced light rock music style that is in line with future popular trends. After listening to the beginning part, several foreigners looked at each other. Glowing.
This song was also a popular party song and once occupied the top 5 of the annual pop music charts in the United Kingdom and the United States for seven months.
Its total YouTube views are over 2 billion, and it is also the song that made the original singer successfully transform from an idol group member to a powerful singer.
At this time, it was performed by Jin Xishan, and it has a unique style of avant-garde electronic dance music.
Full of meaning, but without the noise of purely commercial dance music.
The music style uses plain, continuous and even retro-colored synthesizer sounds, carrying the conceptual output of pioneering pop music with ups and downs.
The melody is also very concise, with a delicate mechanical feel similar to that of the steampunk era, which is displayed in every micro-fold of the song.
The most outstanding thing is its arrangement. Before entering the powerful electronic rhythm, it starts with two bars of concise singing of the soundtrack, showing the best texture of its tone, and there is also a small but delicate transition.
Then, the powerful psychedelic electronics create an auditory space, the heavy beat rhythm creates a strong boundary, the vocal performance and the soundtrack form a synergy, the spirit sways with the rhythm, and the imagination is stimulated.
It uses retro synthesizer sounds and dis dance music to create a Star Trek-like technological complex, and in the cold, avant-garde, sharp, and meticulous electronic rhythms, it constantly moves closer to futuristic contemporary electronic music.
This type of arrangement uses music technology to closely convey the concept of "time", rather than being stagnant with retro sentiments.
A little exotic, a little like the impression of the old times like a time shuttle, and a collage of guzheng, saxophone, and flute timbre samples. The breakbeats, ups and downs, and strong rhythms are different, but they all create a unique new wave electronic temperature.
This is the definition of a music genre that is a fusion of electronic music and a transcendent spiritual cohesion. It has a musical awareness situation like road rock, showing the inner surge and outer sharpness. It uses music to bring people a beautiful scenery that shocks the soul. .
Jin Xishan's singing gradually pushed the emotion to a climax, quickly bringing people into the musical situation. Everything came smoothly and comfortably, and so naturally.
The lyrics are very warm and inspiring, blooming from life and giving endless spiritual power to life. It is also very different from the straightforward and slightly colloquial style of current European and American music.
The lyrics and the melody describe a beautiful mood like a clear sky, confident, positive, brave, and uplifting. The positive energy is expressed without any stickiness, just like a bowl of nutritious soup that abandons aesthetic fatigue.
