From Middle Age: Leisure Life in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 2 "I'm really brewing a song"

Luo Yun is right. The two are alumni. They graduated from Yan'an Normal University. Yu Dongqing is two years ahead of Wu Lan, but one majored in mathematics and the other majored in music.

Yu Dongqing likes music and once organized a band in college. He knew Wu Lan at that time. After graduation, he participated in a singer competition and embarked on the path of music without hesitation. There were bumps and bumps along the way, but Wu Lan returned the favor.

My senior brother took great care of me.

Including Jinye Records was also introduced by Wu Lan.

I also have such power as the vice president and music director! In terms of music, I have the final say in the company.

Jinye Records is one of the top music companies in the country in this time and space. It is a bit like the status of Baodao Rolling Stone Records in the 1990s, competing with another Xingcan Music Company.

——Of course, from Yu Dongqing’s perspective, the level of the two companies is not very good.

It turns out that Yu Dongqing was still a little ashamed of herself as a school girl. She had been mediocre in the company for ten years and had no impressive achievements.

I don’t know why you asked me to come over today?

Yu Dongqing was thinking about it when he saw a fat middle-aged man in his forties coming out of a single office as soon as he left the office door. He saw Yu Dongqing walking towards him and frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Director Wu asked me to come to her office."

I don’t know whether it’s because Yu Dongqing hasn’t made any impressive achievements in recent years or because he is an alumnus of Wu Lan, so I’ve always been unfavorable to him.

"How can I do this?" Unexpectedly, Wu Lan chased after him.

Beautiful, well-behaved and cute.

Yu Dongqing closed her eyes slightly after listening to Wu Lan's words.

This old bastard!

Fang Jinsong cursed secretly in his mind, but his face returned to calm and calm.

In fact, there is no need to listen.

Just like today's attitude.

"Well, the meeting now is mainly about the soundtrack of "Jianghu Inn". Although Dongqing did not participate in the creation, he is responsible for arranging the music, so I also want him to listen to it, which will help him start his work." Wu Lan got straight to the point and talked about the meeting.

content.

It's none of my business, I just need to listen with my ears.

Rewrite!

Um.

Of course, another cup of Longjing will be great.

Yu Dongqing held it in her hand for fear of falling, and held it in her mouth for fear of melting.

Since I asked you to come, why don’t you listen carefully?

Wouldn’t it be nice for everyone to communicate based on the composer’s ideas and opinions and strive to compose the song perfectly?

Good fellow, you are thinking of deserting!

Fang Jinsong has poor folk music skills and uses Western composition techniques. How can he write such a strong martial arts style?

Forget it, I'm just a company songwriter, not a great composer, so my requirements can't be too high.

Seeing Yu Dongqing's slightly embarrassed expression, Fang Jinsong couldn't help but joked: "Maybe someone is brewing a better song than mine, right? Dongqing?"

Bring the little girl with you too?

When I first came to this time and space, I suddenly had a cheap daughter. I was not used to it for a while, but after getting along with him for more than a month, I fell deeply in love with this cute little girl.

He was wearing a white T-shirt and jeans with a ponytail that looked like an artist, but his face didn't look good today.

In Xiong Zhihai's advanced office, several people stood up and offered their seats. By the time Yu Dongqing came in, the two sofas were already occupied by six people.

There is a saying in Hangzhou: Longjing tea is made from the spring water of Hupao, because the Longjing tea brewed from the spring water of Hupao is fragrant and refreshing.

"holly?!"

no!

Of course, he couldn't answer like this. Yu Dongqing said vaguely: "I think it's okay."

"Holly, wait a minute, I'll ask Xiao Liu to get you a chair." Wu Lan, who was sitting behind the large boss's desk, quickly picked up the landline phone on the table.

Not to mention that the theme song of the "Once Upon a Time" series "Men Should Be Strong" is adapted from the folk music "General's Order".

Wu Lan was really angry.

Unfortunately, in this time and space, the conditions are not yet available. If you want to have a good time with Hupao Longjing, you must go to Hangzhou in person.

"No, here's one." Yu Dongqing picked up a folding chair placed in the corner, wiped the dust on it with a paper towel, placed it under the sofa and sat down calmly.

As a unique oriental film type, martial arts films are full of strong national characteristics, so many of their film soundtracks are also rooted in the adaptation or re-creation of folk tunes and opera music.

No wonder there are so many daughter slaves.

His name is Xiong Zhihai, the company's deputy music director and in charge of the music production department.

West Lake Longjing is divided into five production areas, Longjing Village, Yunqi, Shifeng Mountain, Hupao, and Meijiawu. In the original time and space, Yu Dongqing drank Hupao Longjing.

"Brother Yu, please give me your opinion."

Yu Dongqing looked at the young man wearing black-rimmed glasses sitting on the edge of the sofa, who smiled humbly at him.

Yu Dongqing was speechless for a moment and looked at her.

Li Le?

"Dongqing, tell me about Li Le's revision just now. What do you think of it from the perspective of your arrangement?" Wu Lan asked.

The weather was nice today. The morning sun shone through the window and he felt very comfortable.

"Weird, what would the composition team ask you to do? I don't know what Wu Lan was thinking? Really." After saying that, she ignored him and strode forward alone.

This soundtrack is mainly used in the scene where the male protagonist has greatly improved his kung fu after a lot of hardships and appears again to fight against the villain. The hero's return-as-the-king momentum was not fully expressed.

next year.

When the first new tea comes on the market around the Qingming Festival, I will definitely find a way to go to Hangzhou and enjoy the fun of drinking tea in spring.

Yu Dongqing didn't say anything, and followed him up the fourth floor into Wu Lan's office.

There were already five people sitting in the office. Yu Dongqing glanced at the songwriters who all belonged to the A&R artist development department, including Fang Jinsong.

For example, the opening theme song of the movie "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" by Mr. Xing in that time and space originated from the folk tune of Haicheng, Liaoning.

He likes to drink tea, especially West Lake Longjing.

It is said that Wu Lan sent the melody of this piece to Wang Zheng, the director of "Jianghu Inn", but was rudely rejected by the other party.

There was a hint of contempt on Xiong Zhihai's face. Wu Lan wanted to say something but didn't.

What amendments are there?

I didn't even pay attention.

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Fang Jinsong with a kind look on his face: "Jinsong, although the "Jianghu Overture" you created has been greatly improved compared to the previous versions, I think it is still close. I know you also

It’s very hard, so I gathered everyone together, pooled their efforts, brainstormed and revised it.”

Suddenly a female voice pulled Yu Dongqing back from her fugue, and she saw Wu Lan staring at him with an unhappy look on her face.

Fang Jinsong's expression changed, but he didn't say anything.

Yes!

Seeing everyone starting to discuss, and finally getting red-faced, Yu Dongqing slowly drifted away.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone laughed.

Isn't this obviously sarcastic?

Xiong Zhenghai looked even more mocking.

"He? He also writes music? Then the sun will rise from the west!"

Unexpectedly, Yu Dongqing looked at him with a serious look on his face: "I'm really brewing a song."
