Chapter 493 A good song 'Youth China Talk' (2/2 Monthly Ticket)
"Director Li, Yang Qian sent me a song and said it is very suitable to be the theme song of our "Shining Boy". Do you want to take a look?"
On Wednesday afternoon, Li Mengjia, the chief director of "The Shining Boy" who was arranging tomorrow's daytime recording arrangements at the indoor gymnasium of Beijing No. 86 Middle School, met Wang Panpan, who had rushed over from a long journey to leave the show early.
Wang Panpan was just a host, and of course she had no right to make decisions. So, after Yang Qian sent her the audio of the demo, she went to the scene and asked the chief director Li Mengjia to make decisions.
Li Mengjia is actually not too old. She was born in 1986. She once served as the host of several children's programs on Cartoon TV in Shanghai. Later, she got married and had children. She also began to go behind the scenes and worked as a planner, director and director of documentaries.
, worked as a director of variety shows.
Now only four years older than Wang Panpan, she is already a very experienced director at CCTV.
They have already cooperated with the charity event organized by Qianyu Media to record this issue of "The Shining Boy". Of course, Li Mengjia doesn't know who Yang Qian is.
In fact, she not only knows who Yang Qian is, but also knows Yang Qian's musical level - this year's CCTV Spring Festival Gala, Yang Qian had four songs selected, although three of them were skewered and merged into one program, and one was
It was sung for others, but this unprecedented arrangement still quietly spread throughout the entire CCTV station!
"Yang Qian wrote a song for our show? Hurry up and play it for me to listen to."
No, Li Mengjia became interested as soon as she heard this.
"Okay, Director Li, listen. Yang Qian said this is a demo version. If you think it's okay, Director Li, he will arrange to find a time after the Spring Festival to record the official version."
Wang Panpan took out her mobile phone and played the audio in WeChat while talking to her.
Listen to the song first. After the rapid drum beat at the beginning, a loud and powerful young man's voice came out.
"The wisdom of youth brings wisdom to the country..."
Li Mengjia is familiar with this paragraph!
""Young China"? Isn't this a word from Mr. Liang Qichao's "Young China"?"
Li Mengjia said to Wang Panpan in surprise.
"Yes, Yang Qian combined this song with the same name with Mr. Liang Qichao's "Young China", and the lyricist of the lyrics is Mr. Liang Qichao."
Wang Panpan nodded.
In fact, she also discovered that Yang Qian should have been inspired by the words he introduced to them that day, but he did not create the word himself, so Wang Panpan did not think about asking Li Mengjia for credit.
As the second verse began, more Chinese style elements began to appear in the accompaniment. Just listening to it, Li Mengjia felt that this song was not simple. (Note 1)
“The red sun rises, its path is bright,
The river flows out and flows into the ocean..."
Sure enough, when Yang Qian started singing, Li Mengjia kept nodding her head.
I won’t comment on the lyrics. Mr. Liang Qichao’s original lyrics are absolutely breathtaking and thrilling.
The key is melody and singing!
The melody is Chinese style and very nice. Li Mengjia has already praised it.
As for Yang Qian's singing, Li Mengjia understood why he won the championship of "Good Chinese Voice" after listening to it!
Even this kind of smooth and upright words have charm when he sings them.
The most important thing is that Yang Qian's voice is very clean. Just listening to his voice, you can picture in your mind the appearance of a handsome young man in white clothes with a face as beautiful as a crown jewel.
"Young people have their own teenage madness,
The body is like a mountain and river with a straight backbone,
Dare to measure the sun and moon again,
Today I am the only young man..."
In the chorus part, while Yang Qian sings the flamboyant style of "youth crazy", he doesn't give people a feeling of being too sharp. His voice is warm and his aura is relaxed and relaxed!
"What a song!"
After listening to the entire song, Li Mengjia gave a very positive affirmation.
"Does Director Li think this song can be used as the theme song for our second season of "The Shining Boy"?"
Wang Panpan asked happily.
"Well, this song is indeed very suitable for our program. However, where it should be used may have to be discussed at the meeting. Of course, Yang Qian's opinion is also very important. How does he plan to use this song for us?
, how much does the copyright fee cost? Maybe I have to talk to him first to find out!"
Li Mengjia didn't say anything too sure.
Even though she, as a director, has the say in matters within the system, she cannot directly make decisions.
Not to mention directors like Li Mengjia who don't have much experience, Guo Zhaojiang, the general director of the Spring Festival Gala, also needs to make a lot of balance and compromise. Of course, Guo Zhaojiang's status is still higher.
Going too far, Wang Panpan could still tell that Li Mengjia quite recognized Yang Qian's songs.
"Director Li, why don't we finish our work here tonight and go to Yang Qian's concert? He has a concert tonight at Mao Le Tang Live House. It is said that the children from Jincheng Middle School's Bowen School will also go to watch it!
"
Wang Panpan smiled.
She had received the favor ticket, so it wouldn't be a big problem to ask for one more for Li Mengjia.
"Didn't these children go to climb the Great Wall today? Do they still have the energy to go to the concert?"
Li Mengjia asked in surprise, she obviously had some intentions.
"These children have been living in mountain villages in Bashan and Qinling since they were young. They often help the family with farm work. They are all in good physical shape. Yesterday, a group of children played basketball with the children from No. 86 Middle School in Beijing. Even our children in Beijing could not outrun them.
them."
"I see, the children in the mountains do have better physical strength. Then we have to redistribute the game sessions tomorrow. It might not be interesting to play one-sidedly..."
...
In fact, Wang Panpan's news is a bit inaccurate.
In fact, not all students can come to Yang Qian's concert. After all, the livehouse space is limited. With more than 300 students added at once, the venue is too big.
So, the teacher brought the students who were still in the choir and band.
Other students who got the opportunity to come to Beijing because of their good grades were also arranged. They were taken to Beijing University by another group of teachers to observe a robot competition held in the Beijing University Gymnasium.
"Students must abide by the order when watching the performance on the second floor. Don't block them all in front of the fence, let alone chase and fight. There are many fans of Teacher Yang on the first floor. We must behave better and not embarrass Teacher Yang. Do you understand?
"
Pan Qian took the students to the VIP area on the second floor. The environment here is very good, but the viewing conditions are not as good as the area in front of the stage on the first floor.
Of course, for the students who were able to come to the concert, they were very satisfied and happy.
"This stage seems not as big as the summer of our dreams!"
Tian Dahe leaned in front of the fence and said enthusiastically.
"Don't get too close, it's very dangerous!"
Zhou Haiyan carefully maintained order for Teacher Pan.
"I'll just take a look, hehe!"
Tian Dahe scratched his head.
"Dream Summer is an outdoor performance. It's normal for the stage to be larger. This is indoors. How can there be so much space indoors?"
Zhang Shanshan next to me said something.
"Hey, Sister Shanshan, are you going to perform on stage? I saw Teacher Dai talking to you yesterday!"
Tang Zhenliang asked curiously.
"No, Teacher Dai asked me to study hard and prepare for the college entrance examination. I won't even have the chance to record "Young China" with you!"
Zhang Shanshan said with some regret.
In fact, she didn't tell her everything Dai Yuni said to her.
Yang Qian and the others were actually very optimistic about Zhang Shanshan's voice quality. Dai Yuni went to talk to Zhang Shanshan to let her study with peace of mind, and promised her again that after she goes to college, she can sign a contract with Qianyu Media.
In the early days, like Ouyang Xiaoqing, they mainly focused on learning more professional music knowledge and polishing their singing skills, but Yang Qian and Dai Yuni would arrange for them to participate in some performances, such as assisting in singing at Yang Qian's future concerts, to gain experience.
In any case, Zhang Shanshan has no regrets anymore. She is very excited because her future has become clear. The only thing she needs to do is to continue to learn and grow!
(Note 1: I forgot to introduce it earlier, the composer of "Young China" is Xu Song, and Xu Song's songs were Xiaohan's favorite when he was in middle school!)
