Chinese entertainment for engineering students

Zheng Zilin is a fast player. Unlike Wang Xu, a copied fast player, she is really fast.

When Wang Fei called, she learned that she had completed the task and was about to send it to them.

In 15 days, she had finished writing all 8 songs. This efficiency was simply outrageous.

But the people in Hong Kong at that time were really incredibly efficient. A movie took two weeks, and a TV series took less than two months. These are classic cases that will be familiar to everyone in later generations.

A task often takes just a moment from being assigned to being executed. There were still a large number of hard-working and willing young people in Hong Kong at that time. Hard work, struggle, it was all the chicken soup for young people of that era, and they were quite energetic after drinking it.

Therefore, Wang Fei was not surprised at all when she heard that Zheng Zilin had written eight songs, and Wang Xu only felt that it was normal. There are so many great people these days, and this one is not missing.

Didn't you see that the sound engineer was about to put incense on Wang Xu and Wang Fei, and then brought a god? Friends who at most make people think that they are gods are also gods.

Now that everything was done, Wang Fei glanced at Wang Xu and decided to pull Zheng Zilin over. Neither of them speak standard Cantonese, and Wang Xu even stumbles a bit. He speaks slowly but it's OK, but when he speaks faster he gets messed up.

Zheng Zilin has been Wang Fei's language coach before. Her Cantonese is definitely no problem, so let her continue to be the language coach.

As a result, the production team finally added new members, including a language coach in addition to the sound engineer.

This kind of name can be put on the record, but of course you have to pay for it. The production cost of this album was borne by Xinyibao. The production budget of 1 million Hong Kong dollars is neither high nor low.

After all, Xin Yibao still doesn't know the production capabilities of the little-known Wang Xu and Wang Fei. The producers of this album include Wang Fei, and the two of them are co-producers.

This production trip cost 300,000 yuan to rent the recording studio and 50,000 yuan for the recording engineer. Not counting the later share, Wang Xu 300,000 yuan, Wang Fei 100,000 yuan, and Zheng Zilin 10,000 yuan, plus some consumables, tape costs, etc., it was tight. It’s barely enough, maybe I can save some for a MV.

As for more MVs, I have no money now, so I can only wait until the video is released to see the effect, and then decide whether to shoot more. As a producer who has not proven himself, this is the only way.

After calculating the time, the recording studio was rented for a month and there was still half a month left to use. Wang Fei and Wang Xu discussed it and decided to record more and make a Cantonese version. It could be completed in one go and it would be easier to grasp the style. .

You can go back to Xinyibao and ask for another production fee for the Cantonese version.

Zheng Zilin came very quickly. Within an hour, she came over with the lyrics. When I arrived, I apologized profusely, saying that I actually planned to deliver it today, but I didn't expect you to call first, with an expression like "I was slow and I was stupid."

Well, the people in Xiangjiang are really hard-working now. As long as they are not the kind of stupid and discriminatory people, the people in Xiangjiang are not that difficult to contact.

But there is a group of inexplicable people who have a sense of superiority. They discriminate against this and that. No one looks down on them. They are just using it to cover up their own humbleness and shallowness.

On the other hand, those who are truly talented and capable have no discrimination and treat everyone equally. That is a wise person who knows that there are people outside the world. Humility is not only a virtue, but also the way to survive as an individual.

Zheng Zilin's lyrics are quite wonderful. I have to say that Wang Xu is a bit underestimated. Being unknown in the future does not mean that he has no strength.

Although you certainly won’t be able to get ahead if you don’t have the strength, being unable to get ahead doesn’t necessarily mean you have no strength. Dialectics is true.

Although it is in Cantonese, Wang Xu looks a little awkward. Of course, this is not to blame Zheng Zilin, who makes Wang Xu's Cantonese so bad. But the temperament in the song is really mastered by Zheng Zilin. It is no exaggeration to say that she is overflowing with talent.

But Wang Xu felt that the rap was very strange, but it was right when he thought about it. There is no such thing as rap in the Cantonese music industry now.

Boss Lin played a song the year before last and put it on the album. The response was mediocre. It was new, but not many people liked it. However, the song in which Boss Lin recited numbers in a variety show later became a hit.

It seems that most of the Cantonese rap bosses in later generations are from Guangdong. Oh, by the way, there are also some in Xiangjiang, but they are too vulgar and have too many swear words and are banned.

There is also a Filipino who has taken up the banner of Cantonese rap and said everywhere that he is from Xiangjiang. In his previous life, Wang Xu had listened to his songs. How should I put it, he wasn't as good at it as those guys from Guangdong. This thing couldn't be done by just combing dreadlocks and wearing a nose ring.

Chinese RAP is more difficult to write than English. English only has two sounds, which are almost the same and can be mixed, so any punk can rap a few sentences.

The four tones of Mandarin Chinese are a lot more troublesome. You need to rhyme, and you need to have smooth and oblique to match the rhythm, so that your rap can have a comfortable rhythm, rather than sounding like chanting sutras.

Fatty Zhou sings rap with a vague tone not only because it makes him look awkward, but also often because the tone of the words he writes does not match.

The main reason why Cantonese RAP is difficult to do is because Cantonese has too many tones, 9 tones and 6 tones, and speaking sounds like singing. But the problem is, this is all about speaking, so if you don’t pay attention, it will give people a weird feeling. It doesn’t sound like speaking, and singing doesn’t sound like singing.

If you want to sing Cantonese RAP well, first of all, your Cantonese level is very high. You have to know very well which words can be sung in the wrong key, so that you can glide over in a vague way without making people think that you are fooling. thing.

Then the lyrics must be well written, giving full play to the natural rhythm of Cantonese tones, matching the rhythm, and not conflicting with the melody.

Fortunately, there are not many RAP sentences, and you can always polish them out if you work with Zheng Zilin, and not all of them are RAP.

This time the recording went smoothly for Wang Fei, but Wang Xu was a little stuttered. The rest is very simple, because apart from a few arrangement changes, most of the songs don't really change the arrangement much.

Because Zheng Zilin wrote new lyrics according to the meaning of the original lyrics, or she is still very capable. This is simply a propositional composition among propositional compositions.

Therefore, Wang Xu did not need to re-record many audio tracks. Most of the original ones were still usable, and the adjusted accompaniment part was completed in just a few hours.

Although Wang Fei's Cantonese is not very good, she has recorded three albums after all, so she is no stranger to singing in Cantonese. Under the guidance of Zheng Zilin, she quickly mastered the song.

Wang Xu, on the other hand, was a bit over the top. It took him two days to complete the rap alone, and it took him three more days to learn the choruses properly.

During this process, it was not just Wang Xu who had a big head, Zheng Zilin also felt that her head was big.

After seeing Wang Xu's amazing skills in all kinds of arrangement and accompaniment, Zheng Zilin already regarded Wang Xu as a myth. But when he taught Wang Xu Cantonese sentence by sentence, Wang Xu's throne suddenly fell off.

It was simply grinding sentence by sentence, word by word, so that Wang Xu's Cantonese could not be heard as being sung by an outsider.

By the time all the songs were recorded, 25 days had passed quietly.

I apologize to all the judges.

Chapter 10 has been greatly changed. Please refresh and read it again. Fortunately, it is not on the shelves and there is no cost issue involved.

The part about the original lyricist was deleted, and an original character was added, mainly a lyricist from this era. Either the protagonist is out of reach, or it is impossible to make an album together, a new song writer, and a different gender. Save too many associations.

The entertainment industry is collapsing too fast. I haven’t paid attention to a person for several years, but it can collapse so completely all of a sudden.

It’s up to the engineering students to save it.
