She won't care if you say good or bad things to her. But when you show her real achievements, she will become honest.
On this point, Li Qingjue saw it more clearly than Xiao Qian.
Her concise and concise introduction quickly calmed down the somewhat irritable Celine Dion.
As a European and American singer, it is impossible not to pay attention to Billboard.
On last year's bulletin board, the street where the wind lives ranked fifth in the year with pure music, causing a huge sensation.
Celine Dion has been in the industry for so many years, and it was not until last year that she reached the top spot with the theme song of the Atlanta Olympics, Theo Erofthedrea, so she knows how difficult it is to take the Billboard charts by storm.
Now that I know that the young girl opposite is actually a capable music producer, I am still surprised, but at least I can sit down properly.
"Madam, let's appreciate the arrangement first. We also want to hear your opinion."
During the time when the Rennies arrived, Xiao Qian and others had already perfected the entire song. What was released at this time was already the complete original version.
As soon as the song came out, the fresh and melodious Irish tin whistle made the Rennies unable to sit still.
The deo they heard from Cameron used electronic whistles, and the conditions were limited. Xiao Qian had no place to find an Irish tin whistle to score the music.
Now the exquisite soundtrack performance quickly captured Celine Dion.
It is mainly in the key of E major, and the chord changes of the refrain are arranged in a "cbab" arrangement, which fully demonstrates the poignancy of the song and quickly creates a touching love tragedy in the minds of the Rennies.
.
They had seen the movie sample and could easily connect the music to the plot.
Just imagine that they were sitting in the cinema as ordinary audiences, watching such a movie and listening to such songs, and the hair on both of them stood up.
"This piece is so great, so perfect. It's definitely the best arrangement I've ever seen."
Rainey was always inclined to cooperate, and now he was even more generous with his praise.
Celine Dion looked a little embarrassed, but she corrected her mistakes and was very honest.
"Xiao, I'm sorry, I apologize for my bias. You are really the most amazing producer, and I feel honored that I can sing such an excellent song."
Why does Xiao Qian care about such a little contradiction?
"It doesn't matter, I'm also worried about my youth."
Celine Dion laughs out loud.
"Who doesn't want to be young? Looking at your energetic appearance, we are the most envious people. Especially since you are so young and so talented, you have simply taken over God's favor."
Xiao Qian then introduced Lin Linlin and Liu Zhihao to the Rennies.
"This is the music orchestrator, Ms. Lin Linlin, who played the Irish tin whistle."
"Wow, beautiful girl, how do you know the Irish tin whistle?"
The Irish tin whistle can be said to be the soul of yheartigoon. Without this instrument, the entire song would be eclipsed.
But this instrument is not really mainstream, even in Ireland there are not many people who know it.
Knowing that the instrument was played by a teenage girl in the far east, Celine Dion even began to doubt her own musical literacy.
Oriental musicians are so amazing, why have they never been discovered before?
How did she know that one of the four children was cheating?
"Madam, as far as I know, you are French Canadian. Do you know anything about Britain and Ireland?"
Xiao Qian had another concern, so she asked.
He didn't know how Horner and others in his previous life guided Celine Dion to perform this song, so now he could only follow his own ideas.
"Yes, I know it very well. When I was young, I traveled to England and Ireland and lived there for a long time. Don't worry, I understand all the emotions and spirit of this song. I can't wait Let’s get to work.”
Fortunately, Celine Dion's answer saved him from trouble.
Although yheartigoon is a masterpiece that is popular all over the world, it is also a song with obvious local characteristics. It can be said that if there were no movies, this song would not be so popular.
This kind of music with strong characteristics cannot be performed unless someone has a deep understanding of the local culture.
Reni spoke at the right time to stop Celine Dion's excitement.
"Before we start working, there is a very important issue that requires your consent. Celine and I have decided to put this song into her upcoming new album. Because of copyright issues, we need to make a profit. Just make reasonable negotiations."
This is the right thing to do, and Xiao Qian has already thought about it.
"As long as we can guarantee Starlight Music's 10% revenue share, we will not interfere with any agreement you and Paramount reach."
His request made the Rennies breathe a sigh of relief.
Now that they really like this song, they are afraid that Xiao Qianshishi will open his mouth and tell a sky-high price that they will find difficult to accept.
I didn't expect this young man to be so humble and only asked for 10%.
How did they know that Xiao Qian liked the win-win approach and believed that this song must belong to Celine Dion, so she naturally did not want to cause conflicts.
Furthermore, he has already received four million US dollars in production fees from Paramount, so there is really no need to be greedy.
And even if it is 10%, it will be a huge amount of income.
You must know that this song has won the weekly championship for more than 10 weeks in 18 countries around the world, and has sold more than 10 million copies worldwide. 10% of the copyright income is more than 10 million US dollars.
How much is too much?
Celine Dion's plan to get into work quickly failed. On the first day, everyone got together to discuss cooperation matters and then signed the agreement.
That night, Xiao Qian did not invite Mr. and Mrs. Rennie to dinner.
It's not that he doesn't understand etiquette, but Celine Dion has to keep her voice in good condition and doesn't dare to eat randomly.
When you come to China, if you don’t invite them to eat Chinese food, there’s no need to invite them.
The next day, the Raineys, who had finally overcome the jet lag, showed up at the recording studio in high spirits and officially started working.
The starlight music elite came out and started recording the song under the unified command of Xiao Qian.
In the morning, Li Qingjue explained how to sing the song to Celine Dion. In the afternoon, the recording officially started.
"Ma'am, don't put too much effort into your singing at the beginning. It should have the feeling of whispering and singing, just like the moonlit but calm ocean. You should show your deep and pure charm."
Celine Dion expressed her acceptance and started singing for the first time after the melody was introduced.
Once the recording started, Xiao Qian's face as a devilish producer emerged.
"Stop, you're still trying too hard. It should have the feeling of soul music, and there should be no impurities in the sound."
Celine Dion is also a professional singer, so she quickly made adjustments without any impatience.
Looking at the cooperation between the two people inside and outside, the people from Starlight Music were really shocked.
Of course they know Celine Dion, and many of them are fans of this famous singer.
When they heard that Celine Dion had come to Starlight Music and was going to record songs here, many people were as excited as the fans.
But seeing Xiao Qian's domineering conductor, for some reason, everyone felt that the big-name singers in Europe and America were just like that, and their admiration for them became much weaker.
Xiao Qian didn't say anything, he just acted silently. But as a leader, he would set a strong example for the people below him.
In fact, when foreigners come to China, their mentality is peaceful at first. After all, it is not a place they are familiar with, so no matter how cautious they are, it will not be unnecessary.
The result is that the Chinese people themselves are sentimental and dwarfed, insisting on supporting foreigners, which gradually leads to the proliferation of admiration for foreigners.
Faced with this trend, Xiao Qian didn't have much choice but to start with himself. It would be great if he could influence a group of people around him.
Only when China becomes stronger in the future will the mentality of the Chinese people be completely changed.
The recording of the entire song took a total of five days.
Celine Dion recorded more than ten versions in total. Finally, after everyone discussed and integrated them, the original version was made exactly the same as the previous one.
Even so, the speed still amazed the Rennies.
"This is the easiest time we have ever worked. It is definitely an unforgettable memory. Xiao, can I invite you to be responsible for producing my music in the future?"
Faced with such goodwill, Xiao Qian certainly would not refuse.
"Of course, as long as you pay enough for the production fee."
"Ha ha ha ha"
Amid everyone's laughter, Xiao Qian also established his first connections in the North American music scene.
