The soundtrack of "Tearing the Night" was not difficult to record. Half an hour later, Wang Xuan came out of the recording studio, and Du Chengfei was also familiar with the score.
"I will tell you about this song now. The inspiration for this song mainly comes from what I learned about the survival problems of some construction workers. In the early years, construction workers were very difficult. The wages were not high and the working hours were long. I often can't find a job.
So you can see that there is a line in the lyrics "That person is under the overpass, leaving a phone number waiting for a job." This is how they find a job, because there is no way, they can only paint their phone number on the bottom of the overpass and on the wires Places like poles, waiting for people in need to contact them.
And because they are often unemployed, they are short of money. They can't give their loved ones any tenderness, and they can't provide it when their families need money. I wanted to ask my friends for help, but I kept calling one after another. As soon as I heard about borrowing money, my friends would find various excuses to shirk it, and then they would distance themselves. No one could give me any help or encouragement. . So that their whole hearts are cold.
The whole song roughly expresses the protagonist's unsatisfactory work, inability to be gentle to the people he loves, and the alienation of friends one by one. No one can give him any help and encouragement, so that he can only struggle alone in the dark night, helpless and helpless. When I fall asleep, I want to tear the night apart.
When recording this song, you must sing out the helplessness, helplessness and hesitation of the protagonist of the song. have you understood? "Wang Xuan said.
"Um."
"I understand, let's start recording now."
The process of recording the song was a bit bumpy, but it took only one day and was successfully completed. The main reason is that Du Chengyi always lacks emotion when recording songs, and Wang Xuan is a person who strives for perfection, so it took so long.
But it's understandable. Du Chengyi does not have the experience of carrying bricks on a construction site like Adu in his early years. Adu has been a construction worker for 7 years and has experienced a lot of hardships during this period. When recording this song, he was acting in his true self, with natural and full emotions.
Du Chengyi did not have this kind of experience. Naturally, it was impossible to perfectly express the emotions expressed in the song once or twice. It only took one day to achieve a good understanding.
Wang Xuan personally handled, mixed, and mastered the music and made it into a finished product.
When Weng Qiuping heard the finished product, his eyes widened. The plain lyrics and Du Chengyi's hoarse voice perfectly conveyed the helpless and hesitant state of mind of the protagonist in the lyrics and music, which is touching and touching.
"Okay, Mr. Wang, I believe what you say now. I never thought that Du Chengyi's hoarse voice would be particularly charming when singing." Weng Qiuping was a gold medal manager in his early years, and he has a good appreciation of songs.
"That's it..." Weng Qiuping hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong?"
"Our recommendation resources on major music platforms are no longer available, and other promotional channels are also half-used. In addition, Du Chengyi is still a newcomer, so it will not be easy to break out."
"It's okay, the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys." Wang Xuan said. Weng Qiuping has never experienced the era dominated by Adu. At that time, Adu's songs were played in the streets and alleys, and this song "Tearing the Night" is a must-play. song, and many places directly looped the single "Tearing Up the Night".
"Tearing the Night" is Adu's famous song. If Adu can kill it, Du Chengyi will most likely be able to do it too. Besides, Du Chengyi was much luckier than Adu at that time. At least Du Chengyi had Wang Xuan's back.
Wang Xuan has seven to eight million fans. When the time comes, he will use his Weibo to promote it. Du Chengyi's start will be much better than Adu's at that time.
Du Chengyi was excited after hearing the finished product.
After his voice broke, he actually sang, but it sounded as unpleasant as the quack of a male duck. Unexpectedly, the song Wang Xuan recorded for him was completely different.
Is this really what he sang?
After recording the song, Weng Qiuping gave Du Chengyi a few instructions and asked him to cooperate with the Propaganda Department in announcing it.
After Du Chengyi left, Weng Qiuping asked curiously: "Mr. Wang, in the information you showed me before, besides Du Chengyi, there are several newcomers. What are their characteristics?"
"Zhang Yaxin's vocal range is very wide, and she can handle both fast and slow songs. I have heard her cover songs. Her voice is clear, elastic, tense, and has very good penetrating power." Wang Xuan said, if Wang Xuan is asked to find As a template, Zhang Yaxin's voice should be between Amei and Jane Zhang.
"Deng Ziqing has a strong mid-bass and clear treble, and she has a bit of nasality when she speaks and sings. However, this nasality not only does not become a burden, but makes her singing more distinctive and more recognizable. There is a vocal technique in the field of singing called nasal resonance. , a skill that is difficult to learn, but Deng Ziqing does not need to learn it. She is born with nasal resonance, which is a natural characteristic and is even more rare than the kind of nasal resonance that is specially pursued. Like Du Chengyi, this is also a blessing from God. singer."
"Ren Xuanran's voice is sweet yet ethereal, textured, empathetic, and thick. It is also a very rare voice." This newcomer reminded Wang Xuan of Ren Ran.
Many people commented that Ren Ran's voice has no distinctive features, but in fact, Ren Ran's voice is quite distinctive. His voice sounds very sweet, but it also has a kind of honest feeling, and his emotions are very soft and rich.
The reason why everyone has the illusion that his voice is featureless is because the singer is too low-key.
Because he is low-key and does not overexpose himself, Ren Ran's songs are very popular, but if he is not very popular, it is easy to create the illusion that his voice is not distinctive.
Anyway, Wang Xuan likes Ren Ran very much. This is a very low-key musician who focuses on making music. After the advent of the traffic era, the music scene is almost dead, but there are still some songs that can be played. Many of Ren Ran's songs are playable.
And Deng Ziqing’s template is undoubtedly Deng Ziqi.
Otherwise, how could Wang Xuan say he found the treasure? Among the dozen newcomers in Tianhai, there are otherworldly versions of "Adu", "Deng Ziqing", "Ren Ran", "a combination of Amei and Zhang Liangying"...
Just these few, as long as they are cultivated, are enough for Tianhai to make a lot of money.
"Inform Zhang Yaxin to come and record songs tomorrow. Next month, Du Chengfei and Zhang Yaxin will represent our Tianhai to hit the new song chart. The day after tomorrow I will go to Yanjing to participate in the music festival." Wang Xuan said.
"good."
At this moment, Wang Xuan's phone rang. Wang Xuan took it out and saw that it was Chen Aihua calling.
Weng Qiuping said very wisely: "Mr. Wang, if there is nothing else, I will go and get busy first."
Wang Xuan nodded and answered the phone: "Uncle Chen, good afternoon."
"What a fart! I'm very bad!" Chen Aihua said, with a somewhat unkind tone, "Wang Xuan, Qiqi's love affair has been exposed. The rumored boyfriend of Qiqi that was photographed many times by the paparazzi should be you, right?"
"yes."
"Then what are the negative comments on the Internet? I wanted to give my daughter to you because I was interested in your character and because Qiqi likes to sing. I thought you had the ability to protect Qiqi in that circle. But you let me She was involved in so many rumors, and she didn't even let go of it. How did you become your boyfriend? If I had known this, I might as well not have matched you and Qiqi."
"Uncle, it's my fault."
"Dad, it's none of Wang Xuan's business. I won't let him be exposed." Chen Xueqi's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"That's not okay. You won't do it if you don't let him? And he won't do anything. He is a very inadequate boyfriend."
"Qiqi, stop speaking for me. My uncle is right. I am really not a good boyfriend." Wang Xuan actually did a lot behind the scenes, such as "Meet", the opening song of the music festival, and his This song is prepared for Chen Xueqi...
In addition, it is true that Chen Xueqi did not let him expose her, but no matter what, it is true that Chen Xueqi has fallen into so many rumors. So when it’s time to admit your mistake and punish you by kneeling down, you still have to admit your mistake and punish you by kneeling down.
"Dad, I really don't blame Wang Xuan. Isn't there a music festival the day after tomorrow? Wang Xuan actually told me that he wanted to walk on the red carpet with me, and by the way, he announced our relationship in front of the media, but I didn't allow it."
"Still like that, you won't do it if you don't let him? Will he not kiss you if you don't let him kiss you?" Having said that, Chen Aihua's tone obviously softened a lot, and he even joked .
"dad...."
"It's my fault. Uncle, how about I walk on the red carpet with Qiqi the day after tomorrow?"
"Forget it! Leave this matter to me. But you can do better in the future. As a man, how can you let your woman suffer? For so many years, I have never let Qiqi's mother suffer any injustice. Anyway, If someone bullies Qiqi in the future, go ahead and do it first, and then tell me if you can't do it, and I will tell you the truth."
"Okay, there won't be a next time." Wang Xuan promised.
"Let me set an example for you first. Huayi has been a bit arrogant recently. Even my daughter dares to hide in silence and bully her. Please see how I can give them some color." Chen Aihua said.
"Dad Chen is very angry, and the consequences will be serious." Chen Xueqi said.
"Yes, Father Chen is very angry, and the consequences will be serious."
On the 21st, Huayi received many terminations of endorsement contracts one after another, and all of them were terminations of endorsement contracts from big names, including singers, first-tier singers, second-tier singers, and even superstars.
But that's not the most serious thing.
There is a lot of turmoil on the Internet, as if Huayi is going to collapse at any time, which is the most serious thing. Then someone in the stock market sold Huayi's shares aggressively. Ordinary retail investors saw that the situation was not right, so they also sold Huayi's shares aggressively.
The consequence was that as soon as the stock market opened, Huayi dropped to the limit, and it continued to fall to the limit for two or three days, and then slowly returned to normal. But at this time, Huayi's stock price had dropped by 7 yuan, and its market value had directly evaporated by 5 billion.
It makes a lot of shareholders heartbroken.
"Who is it? Who is messing with our Huayi?"
“I heard from the brand that terminated the contract that we had offended people we shouldn’t have offended, so they would rather pay liquidated damages than terminate the contract with us.”
"Then who is this person who shouldn't be offended?"
"I don't know, they won't tell me. But we have been clearly informed that in the future, those brands will not choose our Huayi artists as endorsements."
Shareholders were heartbroken again when they heard this. The brands that have terminated their contracts with Huayi are all big names, several of them are big international brands, and their endorsement fees add up to at least 500 million a year. Can you not feel heartbroken?
"Cheng Kun! How did you become the director? We entrusted Huayi to your management because we trusted you, but instead of running the company well, you went around offending others?" A shareholder challenged Cheng Kun.
"The problem is that I have never offended anyone from the beginning to the end. Another person with so much energy, I haven't had time to make friends with him, so how can I offend him?" Cheng Kun said a little innocently.
"It means you don't know who Hua Yi has offended, right?"
Cheng Kun shook his head. But the figure of Chen Xueqi appeared in his mind involuntarily.
It can't be her, right?
Probably not. With so much energy, would Chen Xueqi sign a contract with Huayi? He has been manipulated for so long.
But if it weren't for Chen Xueqi, how could Music Chart suddenly hand over the opening song of the music festival to Chen Xueqi to sing?
Or maybe what is said on the Internet is true, and Chen Xueqi is really being taken care of by a big boss?
Cheng Kun was a little unsure.
"Forget it, fortunately, they don't mean to drive us all away. I guess they just want to teach us a lesson and the matter will be over. But Cheng Kun, I still have to say a few words. We recognize your ability, but you are a bit domineering. , it may be better to make money through harmony. Because maybe a sloppy person you look down on is a big boss in the world of games." Some shareholders suggested.
"I understand." Cheng Kun nodded.
...
Perhaps only Wang Xuan knows the reason for Huayi's encounter.
too strong!
Chen Aihua is so strong that he can turn his hands into clouds and his hands into rain.
Huayi is a giant company in the entertainment industry. However, this giant company was so shaken by Chen Aihua's backhand that its market value was directly wiped out by billions.
Really scary.
But having said that, Wang Xuan understands that Huayi's turbulence is also related to its listing.
If Huayi was not a listed company, no matter how powerful Chen Aihua was, he would not be able to make Huayi lose billions in a flash. The most he could do would be to force those brands to terminate their contracts with Huayi, and not much else could be done.
This is one of the reasons why Wang Xuan told Weng Qiuping before that he would never go public after taking over Tianhai.
If a company is successfully listed, its market value will expand several times, but that is fictitious and not as reassuring as real assets. In addition, it is too easy for people to mess with you after you go public. No matter how well you manage the company, as long as they create some negative news, the stock price will fluctuate, and billions may evaporate easily.
Ren Zhengfei summed up the reason why Huawei is not listed in two sentences: shareholders are always greedy and want to squeeze out every drop of profit from a company as quickly as possible, while the people who own the company are not so greedy. Huawei's employees are also owners of the company, so they tend to take a long-term view and are not in a hurry to cash out.
Wang Xuan recognized these two sentences.
Once a company is listed, external forces will inevitably intervene, and the company will be subject to the supervision of shareholders. However, shareholders may misunderstand the company's decision-making due to insufficient personal talents, and exercise their voting rights unreasonably and inconvenience the company's decision-making.
This is very detrimental to the operation and management of a company, which is one of the reasons why Wang Xuan chose Tianhai to never go public.
