Entertainment Unlimited
Chapter 36
Two days later, Ding Shaokun returned to Beijing from abroad, and Lin Sen went straight to the president's office.
Deputy manager Tian Hao was not here, and Ding Shaokun could not hide his tiredness, as if he had not yet recovered from the fatigue of traveling.
While rubbing his temples, he listened to Lin Sen slowly talk about the custom-made advertising song for "Gouduoduo".
After listening to Jiang Ye's request, Ding Shaokun sat upright suddenly, and his heart suddenly became angry.
Seeing that his boss's face was wrong, Lin Sen quickly calmed down: "We are used to this kind of situation, but over at [Buy Duoduo], it was Mr. Sun who asked Jiang Ye by name to ask for a song.
According to the current momentum of [dream5], if this thing comes to pass, the impact will be huge.
The popularity and social recognition have increased, the album has gone platinum, and the prices of various endorsements and commercial performances have also increased."
"Ha." Ding Shaokun sneered dissatisfiedly.
Just after being popular for a few days, I dared to raise a 50-50 split. Then when the coffee position goes up to one level, wouldn't it be a big change?
Ding Shaokun thought about it for a long time and asked, "Is Jiang Ye so confident?"
"He dares to give up the decision-making power as a singer. He must be very confident. The starting price of this order is 5 million, and it is not impossible to go up to 10 million. Why don't we make this money?"
Lin Sen's face turned red and his heart skipped a beat, and he continued to lie, "[Buyduoduo] is on the market. Mr. Sun must have spent money on this advertisement. When the time comes, the TV and Internet will be flooded with it every day...
Even if you can’t earn the other 5 million, you can still increase Jiang Ye’s popularity, and there will always be opportunities to earn it back from other places in the future.”
After all, the success of "Monkey King" and the sales of the new album are at stake.
Ding Shaokun thought about it again and again, but was really tired. Finally he was convinced and nodded in agreement.
However, the loose version of the contract originally prepared for Jiang Ye...
He thought to himself that he would have to think about it again and maybe change it.
Ding Shaokun closed his eyes and rested his mind.
Just as he was about to ask his secretary to put down the remaining arrangements for the day, Cheng Baixun broke in.
"Uncle Ding, you're back." Cheng Baixun greeted in a strange tone.
After talking to Lin Sen about Jiang Ye earlier, Ding Shaokun didn't have much patience left at the moment, so he raised his chin in response.
[g.nd]'s first album sales have stagnated, stuck at more than 800,000 copies, and its stamina is seriously lacking.
The fan meeting was organized, and the most generous [reverse support] also spent money and tried their best, but they couldn't make a single ripple.
Cheng Boxun was also impatient and said in a bad tone: "Promise me that the ep will be released, when will it be released?"
"Peng Yuan is here, a brand new production team." Ding Shaokun suppressed his annoyance, smiled and coaxed, "Don't worry, Bai Xun, the best song must be left for you."
The prince is now very nervous and sensitive. When he heard this, he couldn't help but think of Jiang Ye, a mere unknown who could only write two songs.
Of course he, Cheng Boxun, is the best, he just lacks a good song!
When the new ep is released, let’s see how long [dream5] can stay popular!
…
Ding Shaokun was too lazy to deal with it, so he chatted for a few words and sent his secretary to see the guests off.
Good guy, on this day it was Jiang Ye and Cheng Boxun, both of them, no one dared to yell in front of him.
Ding Shaokun cursed in his heart, all his patience now is just to ascend to the throne of CEO of [Tianyou Entertainment].
When he comes to power, he will get his money back with interest!
The card was placed on [dream5], and Jing Xiangyun was completely defeated in this round. He must be the successor of Tianyou.
At that time, no matter what kind of bullshit prince he was, he was just the son of the second shareholder. With the support of the chairman, I wouldn't even serve your father!
…
Early the next morning, Jiang Ye received a call from Lin Sen. He was impressed by his high efficiency.
Not long after the last office negotiation, Lin Sen agreed to all the requests he made.
"Start looking for candidates, the information has been sent to you." Lin Sen explained.
After listening to the demo, he and Peng Yuan unanimously approved Jiang Ye's proposal. The advertising song "Buy Duoduo" is indeed not suitable for an orchestra to sing, but needs a fresh and sweet female voice.
So first come first, Jiang Ye decided to take a look among the company's trainees, there might be some shining gold.
Lin Sen added: "In addition to trainees, there are also some young singers who have debuted but have no work. You choose a few as soon as possible, and I will meet Peng Yuan with you tomorrow."
"good."
Jiang Ye put down the phone and put on his headphones.
[Buy Duoduo] This advertising song does not require any singing skills or a golden voice. It mainly depends on the sound quality. It is best to have a female voice that is clear but not astringent, sweet but not greasy.
After comparing the data one by one and listening to nearly a hundred vocals, Jiang Ye unexpectedly found that the average quality was pretty good.
There are even some trainees who are very good at singing, which is obviously different from their big white voices.
Based on their voices and singing skills, Jiang Ye finally selected four people and gave their names to Lin Sen that night.
The next day, Tianyou Entertainment Record Department.
Four young and newbies were waiting at the door of the recording studio. Some were sitting upright, drinking water to moisten their throats; some were simply standing still, wringing their fingers, as if they were novices waiting for an interview.
Among the four, there is only one trainee who has not debuted yet, named Liang Chenxi.
Last night, she suddenly received a notice from her manager that she would come to the company to record a song today. She almost stayed up all night.
My singing skills are not bad. If I have a chance to be chosen to sing the commercial song of "Buy Duoduo", the composer will still be Jiang Ye!
She simply didn't dare to think about it.
I'm afraid that this thing will come to nothing, just like the mad disappointment of winning the lottery but not being able to find the ticket stub when I get home.
…
"Hi~ hello." Jiang Ye came.
"Hello teacher."
The four of them looked at him together, as if they were little fans seeing their idol for the first time, and they were at a loss.
Jiang Ye smiled and asked them to relax: "Who's Liang Chenxi? Come on, let's try the sound first."
Liang Chenxi entered the recording studio and introduced herself politely.
Jiang Ye remembered that among the four, she was the most mature in using her pronunciation and breath: "There is a music score in front of me. I give you three minutes to prepare. Relax and don't be nervous.
Let’s try singing a few lines first, and try to find that innocent and lively feeling, like first love, the little girl’s state, just be more natural.”
"Good teacher."
Liang Chenxi stared at the staff on the shelf, took a long, deep breath, and began to sing the first few lines:
"I want to send you a text message, I miss you so much; I want to call you immediately, I miss you so much..."
After singing two lines, Peng Yuan and Jiang Ye looked at each other.
Jiang Ye raised his hand to signal a pause: "The verse part is fine. You can also try to sing a part of the chorus. I have marked it on the score."
"Okay." Liang Chenxi adjusted her breath and sang another chorus.
After it was over, Jiang Ye nodded: "Thank you, that's all. Please call the next person, Yang Xiaoyu, to come in."
"Okay, thank you, teacher." Liang Chenxi felt that her performance could score 80 points.
Soon, the other three entered the recording studio and went through the same sound test process as before.
After spending most of the day, Jiang Ye was quite helpless and still couldn't find the feeling he wanted.
Peng Yuan also frowned: "Liang Chenxi's voice quality is quite satisfactory, especially the chorus singing is good. But the whole thing is a bit boring and not playful enough."
"Well, she focused all her attention on improving her singing skills. She made no mistakes, but she didn't impress people." Jiang Ye silently gave Liang Chenxi a friendship point.
When it comes to singing, in fact, most of the time it’s God’s blessing.
It doesn't mean that you can become popular just because you have good singing skills.
The most important thing is that the voice is recognizable and the way of interpretation, including the feeling of interpretation, perfectly matches the song.
…
Back home, Jiang Ye dug out the information about the company's female singers and listened to some of the demos over and over again, but still didn't find the perfect candidate.
Jiang Ye sighed and finally gave up.
He planned to discuss it with music director Peng Yuan tomorrow to see if the other party had any ideas.
If it really doesn't work, you can only use the post-production method to modify the sound, find a barely qualified singer to record it first, and then process it later to achieve the effect you want most.
As he was having a headache, Jiang Ye took out his cell phone and boarded the Weibo without any thought.
This is also one of his regular daily operations, reading comments from fans and looking through related information.
Suddenly, he saw a private message in his inbox, which was sent by Xia Xingzhu, a die-hard fan.
In the private message, she still shared some recent things that happened to her, and she took on another commercial, and her number of fans exceeded a certain amount...
Jiang Ye felt funny when he thought about the stupid things this little girl had done before.
He opened Moyin's short video and clicked into the live broadcast room of [Stars Don't Sleep] again.
As soon as I entered, I saw Xia Xingzhu singing to the fans.
Jiang Ye listened, listened—
Reacted suddenly.
A sugary girl with a feeling like first love, clear but not astringent, sweet but not greasy...
The most important thing is that there is a kind of natural and unmodified innocence.
Isn't this sound exactly what he wants!
