Entertainment: Reborn as a composer, dominating the entertainment industry

Night, dreamless...

Some people are too excited to sleep, some are too anxious to fall asleep!

Director He is mixed with joy and sorrow. He is working hard to push forward the matter of the Forbidden City. Once it succeeds, Starlight Entertainment will lose a good song that can kill the top of the charts in one second, which is an act that damages the interests of the company!

But He Nanting has his reasons for doing it...

Chen Xi!

……

June 16, morning!

Director He had dark circles under his eyes and had just sat down in his office when the phone rang.

He looked at the caller. It was Xie Dongru from the Publicity Department of the Forbidden City!

Director He cleared his throat and picked up the phone.

"Hello, Minister Xie"

"Mr. He, it's a bit early. Sorry to bother you."

"Minister Xie, what are you talking about? I've been busy for more than an hour and I just happened to have some free time. Minister Xie chose his words carefully to avoid being too official and tried to make his tone more casual.…

""Heaven and Earth Dragon Scale, we have passed it here. There are still some follow-up procedures. I am urging you to go as fast as possible. As for your requirements, I can decide here later. There is no big problem!"

After hearing this, He Nanting was a little disappointed. The Heaven and Earth Dragon Scale was finally delivered by himself.

"Really? Minister Xie, thank you so much."

"Haha, your song is so good. After reading the lyrics yesterday, Dean Peng wanted to hear the song right away. I should be the one to thank you."Minister Xie's words were like adding fuel to the fire.

"Haha, thank you, Minister. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."

"Happy cooperation!"

Director He sighed after answering the phone and lost interest in work.

"Boom, boom, boom…"

""Go in!" His tone was a little stiff.

Chen Xi appeared in the publicity department holding the simple score of"Sadly Land", and looked at Director He, who was a little haggard. When

Director He saw Chen Xi, he remembered that the treasure was handed over to someone else, but Chen Xi still had a few pieces of paper in his hand!!

Things change in a flash!

"Chen Xi, we have already negotiated with the Palace Museum's Cultural Department about the recruitment of songs for Tiandi Longlin, including our requirements, so there is no big problem."

After saying that, he pointed to the A4 paper in Chen Xi's hand and said,"This is……"

Chen Xi was also very happy that his wish had been fulfilled."Thank you, Director He." He raised the A4 paper in his hand and said,"I wrote a song and want to record it today.……"

Director He quickly stepped out and took the A4 paper from Chen Xi's hand. He thought about what Chen Xi had just said,"

A song! Record it today!"

"The company's singer?"Because of the matter of Tiandi Longlin, Director He was still in shock.

"Yes, his name is Cheng Quan!"

"Cheng Quan..." Director He had no impression

"From the Artist Department? Let’s go upstairs to find him…" After saying that, Director He walked towards the entrance of the publicity department.

Chen Xi had no choice but to follow him.

Director He looked down at the music score as he walked, and when he got out of the elevator, he had already gone through it.

How should I put it?

Fresh, not clichéd, the lyrics and music are okay, but not outstanding.

In fact,"Sadly" has a psychedelic rock style, and it is very dependent on the singing style and the way it is performed. Even if the singer’s singing skills are good, if he can’t sing that feeling, the song will become mediocre, and you can’t tell it just by the music score!

After entering the Artist Department, Director He called out,"Cheng Quan."

Cheng Quan was still looking at the music score to get a feel for it. When he heard someone calling his name, he looked up and saw Director He at the entrance of the Artist Department. He quickly stood up and trotted to the door.

"Director He."

Director He looked at the man in front of him. He had long hair and was plain-looking. He couldn't see anything special about him. He turned around and looked at Chen Xi who was still outside the door...

Chen Xi nodded...

Director He waved his hand and said,"Let's go and record a song."

Director He turned around and led the way. Cheng Quan greeted Chen Xi and followed behind him.

When they entered the recording studio, Director Yang was leisurely drinking tea.

Director Yang looked back at He Nanting, Chen Xi, and the boy who recorded the song yesterday, and nodded as a greeting.

He picked up the teacup and handed it to his mouth.…

"Chen Xi has a song to record!"Director He spoke up

"Hot..., hot……"

Coach Yang quickly put down the teacup and wiped the hot water that spilled on his legs... He wanted to record a song without saying anything!

Chen Xi has been hanging around in the recording studio this month, but he hasn't recorded a single song.

"Is he recording?" Coach Yang pointed at Cheng Quan.

"Well, Cheng Quan will record it!" Chen Xi nodded.

Cheng Quan nodded gratefully at Chen Xi, but he was not too excited. He was used to it...

He hadn't released a song in more than half a year since he came to the company. He felt guilty about receiving the basic salary. Fortunately, there were composers looking for inspiration every month and singing demos. He felt that he was still useful in the company...

Director He gave the simple score in his hand to Cheng Quan.

Chen Xi took out the USB flash drive and handed it to Coach Yang. The two began to debug the equipment and add simple piano accompaniment.

Cheng Quan began to familiarize himself with the lyrics and music...

Great! It was the best song he had seen in the recording studio in the past six months.

Cheng Quan raised his head and looked at Chen Xi.

There was expectation and helplessness. He sighed, lowered his head and continued to look at the score...

After the equipment was debugged, Chen Xi walked in front of Cheng Quan, and Cheng Quan quickly looked at Chen Xi in front of him.

"Cheng Quan, use more breath when recording to connect the words, suppress the sound, and find the sense of fragmentation."

"A sense of brokenness. Cheng Quan was a little confused.

"What story does the song tell?" Chen Xi asked

"I feel like it's about reminiscing and looking for someone I like, as well as some beautiful aspirations." Cheng Quan gave his answer based on his understanding of the lyrics.

"Well, wandering in expectation, disappointed in expectation, despair in expectation, looking for that feeling of heartbreak."After Chen Xi finished speaking, he looked at Cheng Quan.

See the hope in fantasy in expectation!

A sad and beautiful place, since it is sad and beautiful, there is no expectation of it coming true!

This is Chen Xi's understanding of"Sad and Beautiful Place"!

Coach Yang and Director He did not interrupt their conversation. Director He looked at Chen Xi with some surprise.

In the recording studio, Chen Xi was no longer the Chen Xi he knew. He could debug equipment, guide singers, and arrange emotions.

If Chen Xi in the recording studio was thrown into the entertainment industry, he should be able to make a living...

Just thinking about it, Cheng Quan found his mood and entered the recording studio.

Seeing that Cheng Quan was ready, Chen Xi made an OK gesture outside.

His fingers closed.

"3"

"2"

"1"

The bass piano sounded, and the rhythm was a bit fast!

"I used to be the restless river…"

"I walked through the forest and strayed into your heart…"

"No plan to camp, put aside the right and wrong…"

"Gone and never back...ye~oh~~"

The breath is very good, the voice is low, and there is a faint sense of brokenness, just like the faint sadness in the memories……

"Now I am a dreamer"

"Feeling lost and lingering"

"When the tide comes, I can remember"

"The way you look...enh~oh~~"

Three interjections, continue to superimpose memories and images, telling of missing…

"I haven't seen it…"

"Flat Hill…"

"How to touch…"

"Flowering Swamp…"

He paused for each word, but his breath connected these words together. They seemed to be a sentence, a whole. The tone gradually rose, the levels gradually progressed, and the emotions slowly accumulated until they exploded.……

"Hey, wait till I find you."

"Test your eyes…"

"Embrace each other without distraction…"

"That's my only tenderness...and that's why I love you…"

"In this sad and beautiful place...yeaaa~"

Director He has been staring at Cheng Quan and listening carefully since he started singing. The feeling is different from when he was looking at the simple music score. Cheng Quan's singing seems to constantly put himself in and abandon himself.

A feeling of loss and being close yet distant!

Keeping this feeling, Cheng Quan completed the recording. Standing in the recording studio, tears rolled down his face.

He wiped away his tears. The better the song is, the less likely he is to sing it. He should be content if he can sing it once...

After walking out of the recording studio, he would ask again the same question he had asked countless times,"Do we need to record it again?"

He looked at Director Yang, but didn't wait for those three words,"It's OK," and saw that both Director Yang and Director He were looking at Chen Xi.

Cheng Quan also looked at Chen Xi, with a smile, sadness, helplessness, and unwillingness,

"Still need……"

Chen Xi waved his hand,"No need, just take the simple score and familiarize yourself with it. Brother Yang and I will finish the arrangement in the morning, and you can come over to record it then!"

Cheng Quan didn't react for a moment,"Do I record the finished product?…？"I can't hold back my tears

"Yes, it should be ready before noon."

Cheng Quan couldn't control himself any more, tears streaming down his face,"Really..., I...really should I record it?……"

It turns out that what makes people collapse is not despair... but the moment they see hope!
