Half an hour later, Wang Zelin and Aldridge, led by Lillard, arrived at a music company.
After coming in, Lillard chatted and laughed with a black uncle whose job badge read "Music Director."
"Wang, this is Jack, a great musician."
"Hello Jack."
"Wang, I finally meet you. I listened to your song last night and it was great."
Uncle Jack was so enthusiastic that Wang Zelin was at a loss as to what to do.
"Man, your song "Started From The Bottom" is now popular on the Internet, but the quality of the recorded version is too poor, which greatly affects the listening experience..."
As a professional musician, Jack knew very well what level of song "Started From The Bottom" was. After learning that Wang Zelin was going to record the song at his place, he couldn't sleep all night last night.
"It's hot."
Wang Zelin muttered to himself.
On the way, Wang Zelin came across several videos of himself singing on the Internet. Although they were a bit blurry and the sound quality was not good, as a professional athlete, he created a song that sounded good while playing basketball, which gave him another
Pink outside the wave circle.
"The previous recorded version was too rough, which is an unforgivable sin for music fans. But don't worry, although my recording studio here is not the best in the industry, it can definitely satisfy you."
It can be seen that Uncle Jack really likes Wang Zelin's songs, and he can't wait to see the songs being perfectly recorded with his own eyes.
As the three most popular NBA players in Portland, they have fans wherever they go. When they come to the recording studio, people are paying attention.
"Damien, long time no see!"
A young black man with long curly hair and big sunglasses who looked like an artist walked up and performed a series of gesture dances with Lillard that outsiders couldn't understand.
Later, Wang Zelin learned that the black brother dressed as the artist in front of him was the person in charge of this recording and was well-known in the industry.
Look around.
The electronic microphones in the cubicle are basic equipment, and the most conspicuous one is undoubtedly a microphone amplifier; outside is a row of electronic equipment that Wang Zelin cannot name.
…
After a while, the accompaniment was ready.
Under Lillard's step-by-step guidance, Wang Zelin entered the isolated recording studio, put on headphones, and started recording songs for the first time in his life.
"Gotta gotta goat!"
The sound of the accompaniment enters the ears, and one sings along with the beat...
Wang Zelin sang very intoxicatingly, with a sense of "put on the headphones and the world is mine", but the frowning behavior of professionals outside undoubtedly showed that his singing skills were flawed.
Fortunately, there are still millions of tuners here.
No matter how bad Wang Zelin's singing is, as long as they can slightly adjust the beat and match the melody, these magical guys can show their magical powers and make Wang Zelin's singing sound better.
After Wang Zelin finished recording, Lillard, who was extremely thirsty, also came to the recording studio to sing a song.
The gap between the two suddenly became apparent.
…
After working hard for several hours, until eight o'clock in the evening, I finally finished recording the song.
"thanks everyone!"
"It's okay, who asked you to pay?"
"..."
After a brief moment of embarrassment, Jack continued: "If you have any new songs next time, please be sure to come here, we are always at your service."
"OK."
Because they were so fascinated by the recording, Wang Zelin, Lillard, and Aldridge didn't even have dinner. After recording, they were very hungry, so they went to a nearby restaurant to eat together.
“Cool, the sound quality online is completely incomparable to this!”
Aldridge was driving, Wang Zelin and Lillard were sitting in the back seat, but the latest recorded version of "Started From The Bottom" was playing in the car, and Lillard was humming along.
There are two versions of this recording, one is Wang Zelin's solo version, and the other is a three-person chorus version.
After recording, the trio posted the single directly to YouTube, along with behind-the-scenes footage of the song being recorded.
"After all, he is a professional."
Aldridge replied.

It was already 11 o'clock when he got home after dinner, and Wang Zelin lay on the bed exhausted.
At the same time, there was an uproar on the Internet.
Wang Zelin suddenly released a new single on his official YouTube account. As the only Chinese athlete in the NBA, his every move on social media will attract huge attention.
A brand new song composed by a Chinese player and sung by the three Blazers became a hit all over the Internet overnight.
At this time, Wang Zelin was suffering a severe blow from his teammates.
"Wang, it's really unsatisfying that such an interesting thing didn't come to us."
Batum, who comes from the romantic kingdom, is full of novelty about recording songs.
"That's it! That's it!"
Matthews on the side quickly echoed, looking aggrieved.
"Well, next time I write a new song, I will definitely invite you to join me..."
Facing the pair of good friends playing tricks, Wang Zelin was speechless.
"What, Wang, you have creative inspiration again!"
Lillard's voice came from behind.
"God..."
Wang Zelin raised his head, facing the ceiling at a 45-degree angle, feeling helpless in his heart.
…
Only ten hours have passed, and the number of views on Wang Zhelinshanren’s YouTube video has exceeded one million.
Three laymen casually created a song, which hit millions of hits overnight, and made countless professional singers cry and faint in the toilet.
Fans who didn't mind watching the excitement also used the official accounts of O'Neal, Metta World Peace and Kobe Bryant.
All three of these people have released records. Among them, O'Neal released his own album "Diesel Shaq" during his rookie season, and later had two albums, reaching platinum sales of 500,000 copies.
Ci Shiping released some singles when he was still called Artest, and they were also included in 2K games.
As for Kobe...it's just a matter of making up the numbers.
After all, Kobe released an album with full confidence and invited many big names in the music industry to guest star in the music video, but the results were really disastrous.
After being selected by Aite, O'Neal immediately disclosed his praise for Wang Zelin's new song and hoped to have the opportunity to collaborate in the future.
Artest then sent some indifferent compliments.
In a large villa in Los Angeles.
"Snapped!"
The cup shattered at the sound.
"Xie Te, why can a boy from China get involved with me even when he releases a new song?" The old blacksmith from the West Coast wiped the sweat from his body and cursed angrily.
After listening to the criticism, he had to admit that the quality of Wang Zelin's new songs was indeed much better than his own back then.
Jealousy makes it separate!
Why don’t I have this kind of artistic talent?
Kobe was lost in thought.
"Okay, don't be angry, honey!"
A pair of strong hands hugged Kobe's neck from behind.
"snort!"
With a groan, Kobe lowered his head and continued to work hard.
…
As time goes by, the Blazers' three young men have made headlines on more and more websites, and the discussion among fans has become more intense.
Fortunately, NBA players releasing song albums is nothing new.
If the song is well written, it will naturally become a good story; if it is poorly written, it will become a celebrity anecdote.
The arrival of the game day has caused the outside world's heated discussion on Pioneer Mountain to shift from song recording back to the game.
