I am the savior of China Entertainment

Chapter 41 The heroine of the MV

There is a unity and tonality in album production. There must be a central point from which to radiate and match the album tracks to make the album as a whole more harmonious.

For example, Jay Chou's underrated album "Eight Dimensions of Space" in his previous life placed great emphasis on narrative and visual creation, so the entire album revolved around these two central points.

But if you rashly put a song "The First Snow in 2002" into the album, the style will suddenly be very inconsistent, and the whole thing will become very disharmonious.

Just after listening to "Peninsula Iron Box", when the phrase "The first snow in 2002" suddenly came up, the idea of ​​what a strange thing this was was probably flashed in the listener's mind.

That’s not to say that Daolang is not good. Many of Daolang’s songs are good, well written and well sung, but the difference in style is enough to cause a sensory tear in the audience.

By the same token, the songs of Zhou Wang, Tao Lin, and others are not so inconsistent when put together. The four of them are all singer-songwriters, so they still have similarities in tonality.

However, the difference in style is definitely audible, and even listeners with sensitive ears can pick it up.

Therefore, when making the first album, Li Hyuk's idea was to pursue the unity of the album as a whole. Since "Bullfighting" has been released, he had to replace it with other songs and also add songs from other singers.

The entire album was scheduled to have twelve tracks, and at this point the trouble of having too many good songs came to light. Every song was good, every song was great, but none of them seemed appropriate to remove, so I was very confused.

Li Hyuk, who was sitting in the recording studio, was worrying about the album tracks. Fan Noxuan took her father to visit the studio at this time. She happened to come to the recording studio and saw Li Hyuk in a daze, so she asked: "Li Hyuk, what are you doing?"

What are you doing in a daze?"

"I'm thinking about what songs to put on the new album, and I have a headache." Li Hyuk said, rubbing his head.

Fan Tingsheng smiled and said: "Are you stuck in a creative bottleneck? I know a few good songwriters. You can ask them for songs."

"Uncle Fan, no, it's just that there are too many songs. It feels like a pity to play any one of them." Li He explained.

"Uh, this..." Fan Tingsheng was a little speechless. He co-wrote you because he was worried that there were too many songs. Is it necessary to be so Versailles?

"Can I take a look?" Fan Tingsheng asked.

Fan Nuoxuan rolled her eyes at Fan Tingsheng and said, "Dad, you are inquiring about business secrets!"

"It doesn't matter. Uncle Fan is also a shareholder of the studio after all, so you can take a look." Li He didn't care. You can't steal this kind of thing even if you want to.

Fan Tingsheng took the thick piece of music score and felt a little stupid. He flipped through it and asked Li He, "How many songs are there?"

"Thirty songs!" Li He replied.

"Thirty poems? Are they all written by you recently?" Fan Tingsheng couldn't believe it.

Li He shook his head and said: "How is it possible? Many of them were saved in the past, and I have written a few more recently."

Fan Tingsheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's okay, otherwise it would be too perverted."

"Dad," Fan Nuoxuan punched Fan Tingsheng's chest in dissatisfaction: "How could you talk like that?"

"I'm sorry, but Li He, there are so many songs that you can't use up. Why don't I pick a few songs and let people from my record company sing them." Fan Tingsheng suggested.

Li He thought it made sense, but he couldn't finish singing it, so he picked out a few songs: ""Summer Wind" and "You Are Happier Than Before", uncle can take them."

"Thank you, thank you..." Fan Tingsheng didn't expect to gain something, and was very happy. But just two seconds after he was happy, a pair of small white hands stretched out in front of him.

"what?"

"Money? Give me money! Do you think it's free?" Fan Nuoxuan said confidently.

"Do you want this? I am also the third largest shareholder after all!" Fan Tingsheng rubbed his head.

Fan Nuoxuan refused to give up: "I don't care, if you use Li He's songs, the shareholders will have to pay you. If you lose a penny, you can do it when you go home."

Fan Tingsheng looked at Li He helplessly, and Li He shrugged, indicating that there was nothing he could do to help. Fan Tingsheng had no choice but to compromise, and the two songs sold for another 300,000 yuan. Li He now bids for 150,000 yuan.

Fan Ting was sad but happy and went back to find suitable singers to sing these two songs.

Fan Nuoxuan picked up the song scores written by Li He and picked out twelve songs: "That's it, record it quickly!"

Li He was stunned: "It's so hasty, do you want to think about it carefully?"

"What are you still thinking about? Hurry up, hurry up, this year's year-end award depends on your album." Fan Noxuan urged.

Finally, at the urging of Boss Fan, Li Hyuk carefully selected twelve songs, and the production of "Jay" officially began.

At Fan Noxuan's suggestion, Guns N' Roses, who was participating in an outdoor variety show, revealed the status of Li Hyuk's new album.

"The new album is being produced..."

"Really? Wow! When will it come out? I will definitely contribute one." A guest asked.

Ye Zixin replied: "It will probably be released before the end of this year. In fact, most of the arrangement work has been completed. Li Hyuk has already started recording and shooting the MV."

"I'm really looking forward to it. I like the song "Tenderness" very much. Is this album composed entirely of lyrics and music by Lee Hyuk himself?"

"Yes, in fact, I have written a lot of songs before, and then selected 12 songs from them to form the first album "Jay". Please look forward to it."

After this variety show was aired, Li Hyuk, who was already very popular in September, became even more popular. The news of the new album instantly became a hot search topic, and Taotao, the last of the four returning sons, was ranked as the top trending search topic.

In this way, Li Hyuk entered a busy and fulfilling life and work. He usually attended classes in the presence of school classmates, and went to the recording studio to work and record albums after school and on weekends.

In addition, I also discussed the shooting of the MV with Kuang Shen, who is the album MV director. Based on the degree of control over the songs, the recording process was very smooth and there were no mistakes. The most difficult song "Black Humor" took only a few seconds to record.

It took less than three days.

The casting for the MV is also in progress, and Fan Noxuan is in charge of this aspect. She has selected many models and actors, and selected several beautiful girls to shoot the MV.

"Which one of "Lovely Women" do you want to use?" Fan Nuoxuan asked Li Hedao.

"Who are the candidates?" Li He asked.

"There are many, you see, this beauty is a model, but she is only 1.8 meters tall, so your height is a bit disadvantageous." Fan Noxuan said.

"Uh, forget it, it's not cute at all." Li He immediately passed on this candidate.

"There is also an actor who has appeared in many films and TV series. He is not very talented. We can afford it. His name is Li Qin. What do you think?" Fan Nuoxuan asked.

"Li Qin?" Li He's eyes lit up: "This is good, very beautiful and elegant, it should meet the requirements of the MV heroine."

"OK, then I will send her an invitation." Fan Nuoxuan immediately contacted Li Qin's agent.

The pop music circle has changed a lot, but the film and television circle has not changed much. At this time, the actors who should be in the spotlight are still in the spotlight. I wonder if there will be a chance to cooperate with Da Mi Mi. Li Hyuk is a loyal fan of Da Mi Mi.

At a certain studio in Hengdian, Li Qin, who had just finished shooting a scene, came down to rest. His agent came over and said, "Qinqin, I received a very strange invitation."

"What kind of strange invitation?" Li Qin asked curiously.

"It's an invitation to record the MV. Do you still remember that Li Hyuk from some time ago?"

"Remember!" Li Qin nodded and said, "The singing is very nice. I sing the song "Rain Love" on repeat all the time."

"It's him who sent the invitation to ask you to be the heroine of the music video." The manager said.

Li Qin was very interested: "This is good. He has been very popular recently. Being able to star in his MV is also a good opportunity."

"Then I promise them?"

"Promise! Did you say when?"

"It depends on your schedule, but it's best to complete the recording before mid-October."

Li Qin nodded and said: "OK, it just so happens that this drama is about to be finished, and it's time to take a vacation after filming the MV."

Fantasy Studio quickly received a reply, and Li Qin agreed to star in the "Lovely Woman" MV. This is a good cooperation opportunity for both parties.

It was Li Qin's first time to act in a music video, so the experience was very novel. At the same time, Li Qin also became curious about Li He, who had recently been praised for his talent.

She was very curious about what was so special about this big boy who was several years younger than her.
