Chapter 296 Xu Yang's Singer Level
I have to say that 2012 was a magical year. The film industry’s first movie with a box office of over 1 billion was born. In the music industry, The Voice of China was broadcast, which influenced another generation.
However, if someone looks back on this year later, they will find that Xu Yang's shadow is present in both of them.
At the end of May, Xu Yang came to Hangzhou and met Xia Chenan, the director of The Voice China.
At the same time, there are also four mentors from The Voice, Liu Huan, La Yin, Yu Chengqing, and Wang Toutiao.
Liu Huan and La Yin were invited by Xia Chenan personally, while Yu Chengqing was recommended by them, and Wang Toutiao was recommended by Xu Yang.
At first Liu Huan and La Yin decided to recommend another person, but in the end after learning that Xu Yang recommended Wang Toutiao as the producer, they simply recommended Yu Chengqing to save face.
After all, judging from the horizontal comparison and vertical comparison, Wang Toutiao is better than Thirty-Two Concerts.
So the initial lineup of mentors on The Voice was decided, but only the mentor program has only begun halfway.
Xu Yang declined to comment on Blueberry Channel's method of introducing contestants, but Xu Yang argued for the internal round-robin competition after the auditions.
"What do those media know about music? It is absolutely impossible for a music talent show that aspires to be the most professional music talent show in the country without music judges."
After saying that, except for Xu Yang, everyone else, including Liu Huan, fell silent.
The principle is this, but it is really difficult to do.
Apart from anything else, if we don't please these uncrowned kings, who knows what they and the players will be said about afterwards.
However, Xia Chenan is courageous and farsighted. At first, he only prepared for media review, but after Xu Yang reminded him, he also discovered the problem.
If The Voice of China is only judged by the media, it is not worthy of being called The Voice of China.
"Xu Yang, who are the representatives of these music judges?"
Leaning slightly on the chair behind him, Xu Yang said: "Of course they are the group that best represents the Chinese music scene."
Under everyone's thoughtful gaze, Xu Yang continued: "First of all, it is the representative of physical music, and this representative is the record company. I believe you have no objection to this, right?"
Everyone shook their heads. If the record company represented the musicians, they would have no objection at all.
Not to mention anything else, their musical literacy is much better than this group of media who know nothing and love to talk and do random things.
Secondly, the purpose of participating in such a talent show and variety show, including Liu Huan, is to discover some new talents for the Chinese music scene.
The decline of the Chinese music scene. Anyone who has a little knowledge of its past glory will know that, no matter what the current media says, only those who came from the last century will know exactly what kind of glory the Chinese music scene has gone through.
It is undeniable that many outstanding singers have emerged since the new century, including Milk Tea Week, Zhanzhuang Chen, Xu Yang, etc.
But overall, the Chinese music scene at this time no longer has the hundreds of flowers that bloomed in the Chinese music scene just a few years ago. This is a manifestation of decline.
Up to now, the current situation of the Chinese music scene has confirmed their view.
Taking a closer look at the five years since 2008 to now, there have been almost no particularly amazing singers born.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
Xu Yang is one, the crooked Lin Youjia, Yang Zongwei can barely count as two, Zhang Jie is half, and there are some good performers from Xiangjiang.
But Xu Yang is probably the only one who can really shoulder the responsibility. This was incomprehensible in their era when there were so many talented people.
So no matter what they think or do later, at least these four people really want to make some contribution to the Chinese music scene.
But the second music review representative Xu Yang mentioned next made them frown a little.
"Next, the music review representatives should be familiar with music. What do you think?"
Liu Huan kept frowning when he heard what Xu Yang said, and so did several others.
At this time, Wang Toutiao looked at the people around him. Liu Huan was the eldest brother and it was difficult for him to speak. He was the only queen of spicy yin and could not speak easily. Yu Chengqing and Xu Yang were not familiar with each other, so he had to speak on his own.
"Is it too early to let digital music representatives serve as music judges?"
Wang Toutiao’s thoughts are also those of others. They can see that it will be a matter of time before digital music replaces physical music.
But it has not been completely replaced yet, so should we still focus on physical music? It is not impossible to wait a few years to focus on digital music.
Xu Yang knew what they were thinking, and Xu Yang felt it was necessary to make it clear to them about Xu Yang's thoughts.
"I'm afraid it has only been one or two years since digital music replaced physical music. It will take no more than four years to completely replace it. I think it is necessary to start planning now."
After hearing this, some people were silent and others were thoughtful. Finally, Xia Chenan made the final decision: "Then we will add digital music representatives, but physical music representatives will occupy 30% of the quota, digital music representatives will occupy 20% of the quota, and media representatives will occupy 50% of the quota."
It seems that there is a 50-50 split between the media judges and the music judges, but in fact the media judges have the advantage. As the project director of The Voice of China, Xia Chenan’s first consideration is not the future of the Chinese music scene, but that this drama cannot be defeated.
So it is understandable that he arranged it this way. After all, this is a bargaining process.
Then several people signed the written document together, and Liu Huan's document was one point longer. This was the promise of the program team.
No shady stories are allowed, and no interference in the instructor's decisions is allowed, either on or off the field.
In addition to these two conditions, there are some conditions. After reading it, Xu Yang could only sigh, I am afraid that only Liu Huan can make Xia Chenan, who represents Blueberry Taiwan, bow his head.
Then the four instructors discussed some details with Xia Chenan and Xu Yang, striving to run the program well.
After finishing the business, the atmosphere in the entire conference room relaxed. In the evening, a few people except Xia Chenan had a simple meal.
After all, Xia Chenan is not a singer and has nothing in common with them.
The hot girl on the table introduced Yu Chengqing to Xu Yang. Although his reputation has not been obvious in recent years, he was still an elder in their time.
If it weren't for Xu Yang's experience, one would really think that this person had risen to the position based on his qualifications.
Except for Xu Yang and Yu Chengqing, who are not very familiar with each other, the rest of the five are still very familiar.
Needless to say, Liu Huan, La Yin, Wang Toutiao, and Yu Chengqing all came from the same era. There were musical disputes in the past, but now they can talk about the past in a calm manner, which is enough to prove that their relationship is not bad.
As for Xu Yang, the most outstanding singer in the mainland in recent years, they have met each other both at award ceremonies and in private life, and their relationship is still good.
Now that Yu Chengqing has met Xu Yang again, the atmosphere among the five of them has become even more harmonious.
It's just that since they are singers, and singers who have basically reached the top before and after, they naturally have to test each other's abilities.
Mainly, Liu Huan and a few old guys were testing Xu Yang's ability, wanting to see what this leader of the new generation of young singers was like.
Especially Yu Chengqing, as a Wanwan singer, he has long wanted to test Xu Yang's ability to see if it is as good as the media boasts.
But how could Xu Yang put himself at a disadvantage, so he also made a vague condition.
If you can give it a try, let's do it together, but after I finish singing, I will post it online.
When Xu Yang revealed his intention, the expressions of the other four people changed. They just let it go in private. What's the point of putting it online?
But they didn't object because they didn't think they would be able to suppress Xu Yang.
But what song should I sing?
"How about "Tomorrow Will Be Better". We are one family on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. There is no song more suitable for the purpose of today's gathering."
Several people nodded and immediately agreed to Xu Yang's proposal.
After a few people got familiar with the lyrics, they asked the assistant to record the song with their mobile phones.
"Knock gently to wake up the sleeping soul..."
However, when the other party opened their mouths, they could feel each other's surprise. How could Xu Yang sing so well?
Although he is still far behind Liu Huan, he is an S-level singer after all. The only S-level domestic male singers and mainland male singers are Liu Huan, Han Lei, Teng Geer and Wu Tong.
It's a bit worse than La Yin, but it's better than the current Yu Chengqing and Wang Toutou who have just regained their second youth.
You must know that among female singers, La Yin is also at the S level, while Wang Toutiao and Yu Chengqing are also at the A level.
This made several people feel moved. They are lower than Liu Huan and Hot Yin, but higher than Wang Toutiao and Yu Chengqing. Then isn't this an A+ grade?
.
Singers at this price are basically top-notch in a certain category. For example, Li Jian after 17 years was top-notch in mixed vocals.
What makes Xu Yang reach the top is to combine top-level emotions with skills that are not yet top-notch.
Xu Yang's own emotions are top-notch, which gave him the talent and strength to aspire to be an S-level singer from the beginning.
Now that skills and emotions are integrated, reaching A+ level is not an incomprehensible thing.
It’s just that there is no great achievement of magic skills yet. If you achieve greatness of magic skills, it will not be A+, but S, which is on the same level as La Yin and Liu Huan and has blazed its own path.
After singing the song, the four people except Xu Yang all sighed, "Young people are so scary."
Liu Huan looked at Xu Yang, smiled and shook his head, saying: "Work hard, the future depends on you."
La Yin is also a little bit sad. From being a little girl to the current queen of the Chinese music scene, La Yin has endured a lot of hardships.
But now that he sees a little kid who is not old enough to debut and is about to have the same strength as himself, he really has mixed feelings.
Envious, even a little jealous, but mostly still confused, did he start singing from his mother's womb?
Unlike La Yin and Liu Huan, Yu Chengqing and Wang Toutiao are both a little embarrassed and depressed.
Although it was Yu Chengqing who said he wanted to test Xu Yang's strength, Wang Toutiao also wanted to test Xu Yang's strength.
After all, last year was the year when he regained his second youth, but at the same time, it was also a year when he basically had no sense of existence.
Because Xu Yang was so abnormal last year, as long as Xu Yang is present at Wang Toutiao's major award ceremonies this year, he will basically win a guaranteed rock award.
So Wang Toutiao said nothing on the surface, but privately he was still a little unconvinced.
Do you think that after more than 20 years of singing, you can't surpass a little kid? This must be a crime other than war. It must be that little kid who is very lucky, otherwise he couldn't have been singing to dogs for more than 20 years.
Bar?
At this moment, Wang Toutiao feels that it is really possible for him to sing to dogs in the past twenty years...
Fortunately, it was embarrassing, but I didn't say what I thought, otherwise Wang Toutiao would most likely hide his face and walk away.
At this time, Liu Huan and La Yin came out to smooth things over, making Yu Chengqing and Wang Toutiao less embarrassed.
It's just that after doing this, few of them had anything else to think about. They are more popular than you and can sing better than you. There's nothing more to say.
"By the way, will you release an album this year?"
Suddenly, Wang Toutiao asked Xu Yang this question. Xu Yang was stunned for a moment, and then told the truth.
"No, but there will be a few singles released, and one will definitely be released in early June."
The other four people looked at each other and understood what Xu Yang meant. Is he going to go all the way in digital music?
Although there is no intention to discriminate against digital music, in their view, physical album sales are the most powerful proof.
"It's better to release more albums in the future. It's a pity that you don't release more albums at your age and ability," Liu Huan said.
Hearing this, Xu Yang smiled bitterly: "Brother Huan, I want to release it too, but last year's album almost wiped out my life. I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover in the next two years."
Although it was a pity to hear Liu Huan, it was not surprising. After all, he had listened to Xu Yang's album last year, and several of the songs were indeed rare songs.
Songs like this are something you can come across but cannot ask for. I think Xu Yang spent a lot of effort in creating these songs, so he deserves a rest.
"Then take a rest, see more of the world, and experience more things. The thickness of your songs depends on how much you have seen and how much you have experienced."
Xu Yang nodded and said: "I understand Brother Huan, I will pay attention to it in the future."
Liu Huan hummed and said nothing more. Xu Yang was not his apprentice, so he was very happy to be able to give him some guidance.
Afterwards, the group of people returned to the hotel, and the next day Xu Yang visited the audition portion of Blueberry Channel's production of The Voice of China.
There is really a huge crowd of people, and it is a hard and tiring job to pick out the players from all over the country who can listen first.
However, no one else can do this job yet. It can only be done by the four mentors, who select their future members from a variety of music sources.
After choosing a noon day, Xu Yang felt that it was indeed quite tiring, and was going to suggest that if we do it again next year, try to change the format.
After that, he visited some other production units, and then Xu Yang returned to the Magic City.
It's just that the others have gone back, but the discussion about the five of them on the Internet has just begun.
The cause was a video posted by Xu Yang on Dayanbo. This video was a video of Xu Yang singing "Tomorrow Will Be Better" with four good voice instructors.
After the video was released, after almost a day of promotion, basically anyone who cares about the music industry knows that Liu Huan, La Yin, Xu Yang, Wang Toutiao, and Yu Chengqing met and sang a song together.
At this time, people were already guessing what these five people were doing together. According to the law of kings and kings, if singers of this level gather together on occasions other than award ceremonies, something big must have happened.
Then everyone, including the paparazzi, traced the formation of the five of them, and finally they found them.
"According to the news, Blueberry Channel is going to produce a new music talent show. Liu Huan, La Yin, Wang Toutiao, and Yu Chengqing should be similar to the Fast Boy judges, but it is really unclear why Xu Yang went there."
After being dug out, Blueberry did not want to hide it. Instead, they learned a Mango song and used this incident to promote their good voice.
Although the name and production model were not announced, they actually announced that they would produce a variety show based on a music talent show.
This made many netizens feel strange. Is there anyone producing a music talent show these days?
Last year, Supergirl was so desperate that it couldn't be saved anymore. At the same time, the radio and television also issued a paper document restricting the draft, which directly put a death sentence on the talent show.
Nowadays, Blueberry Channel is so stubborn in producing talent show programs. Although it is labeled as a music talent show, it is still a talent show after all. How is this different from Fast Man and Super Girl?
Although everyone is not optimistic about Blueberry Channel's new move, it does not mean that they are not paying attention.
After all, although Fast Man and Super Girl have struggled miserably in recent years, the concept of the draft has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Nowadays, even if it is a talent show that knows that it is unlikely to have any good results, the public still has the slightest expectation for it.
However, there are still some people who are still paying attention to Xu Yang's role in this.
However, their questions cannot be answered after all. As long as the The Voice program team is not stupid, they will definitely not reveal their relationship with Xu Yang at this time.
Wouldn't it be nice to wait until it's about to air before releasing it and use Xu Yang's name to boost ratings again?
Instead, Xu Yang received quite a lot of calls at this time, especially from Mango Channel. He Ling, Wang Han, Xie Na and Long Danni all came to ask him what the Blueberry Channel was doing.
Xu Yang's reply to this was always that he was not clear, I didn't understand, I just went there to have a meal.
Others said, "I believe you, you are a ghost. Do you think we are stupid?"
But even if they knew that Xu Yang was messing with them in the lake, they would not fall out with Xu Yang. Instead, they would follow Xu Yang's words in a good voice.
After all, Xu Yang at this time was no longer a simple artist, but a film and television company boss who could directly talk to their deputy director.
With three top-tier artists under his command, including himself, Tang Ren is truly the undisputed leader in the field of TV dramas.
Although the position of this first brother is not very stable, nor is it very convincing to others, but based on the results of these three first-line players in the past two or three years, they can indeed take the position of this first brother.
In addition, Tang Dynasty's new drama will be broadcast on Mango Channel in another month, so it is really not appropriate to have a grudge against Xu Yang at this time.
But the more secretive Blueberry Terrace and Xu Yang were, the more curious Mango Terrace became.
That's right, they were just curious. They were just curious about Blueberry Taiwan's actions.
After all, Mango Channel has been number one in the province and Taiwan for so many years, so there is no reason why Blueberry Channel should pull them down all of a sudden.
Moreover, the Blueberry Channel at this time was only at the bottom of the five major channels and was not even as good as the Tomato Channel. Therefore, no one on the Mango Channel thought that the Blueberry Channel wanted to challenge them, the top brother of the provincial channel, to sit in this position.
It wasn't until The Voice aired that they received two big slaps, one for Fast Guy and one for Super Girl. They can do well now, but they can still do poorly in the past when they can't. These are just two slaps.
Then, after Mango Channel paid more attention to it, it successively launched a number of variety shows, including "I Am a Singer" and "Where Are We Going, Dad", but in the end, it failed to push Blueberry Channel down again.
But in the end, it was a near miss. Mango Channel was still number one in the province and Taiwan, but Blueberry Channel jumped to second place in the province and Taiwan. I really couldn’t tell after that.
After distancing himself from the incident, Xu Yang returned to his busy work.
Although he has left many specific matters to Cai Yinong, there are many things that he has to deal with as a big boss.
And in early June, news came that made Xu Yang happy: "Tornado Girl" was finished.
Since this was her first time filming a youth idol drama, Lin Yufen had little experience, and the actors were basically a group of newbies, so it took a little longer than expected.
But it didn't take long. It took nearly three months to complete the filming of "Tornado Girl". With the post-production time included, the finished product should be available in August at the most. This is indeed good news.
Although "Tornado Girl" was released in advance by Xu Yang, some actors have remained the same. Senior Brother Chu Yuan is still Bai Jingting, who is 22 years old.
Then Cai Yinong signed this person who was rated C after being evaluated by the contract signing department. After all, although his acting skills may be eye-catching, he is indeed handsome.
Also, Fang Tinghao, played by Chen Xiang, was originally cast by another Beijing Film Academy student. Chen Xiang originally came for an interview, but was passed directly by Xu Yang.
So except for Tan Songyun's casting as the female lead in "Shan Shan Is Coming" which was an accident, the rest of the cast basically followed the original version.
Later, Xu Yang saw Jin Minqi's name in the soundtrack plan in the post-production planning, which gave Xu Yang some ideas.
"When was "The Thief of Time" sung? It was cut in advance."
The quality of this song is indeed very good, and it was even included in the shortlist of the top 100 songs of the 1900s, which shows that the quality is there, and its popularity is not bad either.
This is already a scarce commodity for Xu Yang, and with the addition of Kim Min-ki, Xu Yang took this song into his pocket without any psychological burden.
But this is all a story for another day. At this time, Xu Yang has solved another issue. He is planning to launch the copyright price of the single in early June.
Since Penguin Music tasted the benefits last year, they have taken the copyright issue very seriously. After all, Penguin made its fortune by plagiarizing.
So they fell in love with this song again because it fit their plans for students so well. In addition, the price was not low. They had signed a guaranteed minimum price before going online, and they would increase the amount accordingly based on market feedback.
The copyright price.
