There are so many classic songs by that diva in her previous life, so many that it’s even impossible to choose.
But when Xiao Qian arranged the title song for Wang Wen's first album, she chose the song "Red Bean".
Even among the countless classics, "Red Beans" still has an extraordinary influence. It was used as the title song for Wang Wen. It can be said that there will be no problems with this release.
With Xingguang's strong publicity ability and Xiao Gongzi's golden signature, the results will not be bad.
Not to mention, Wang Wen's stunning and intoxicating top-level singing skills and unique singing voice.
This is a unique voice in the world, a voice that can eclipse other singers as long as it is heard.
This song in the previous life was included in the album "Singing Tour" during the Queen's dacheng period. It is the song with the weakest characteristics, but it is also the most popular song.
Sometimes, the public's aesthetics is so wonderful.
As a singer, if you have no characteristics, then the public will not remember you. But if you are too distinctive, it will be difficult for the public to get close to you.
It can be said that being able to grasp the balance will definitely test the skills of the producer and singer.
Xiao Qian has the advantage of being a time traveler. He knows what is popular and what is not, so he is much more relaxed when it comes to song selection.
But it was the maverick diva who fell to the ground. Looking at the score of "Red Bean", Wang Wen was not satisfied.
"Compared to other songs, this one is a bit too weak. It doesn't bring out the characteristics of my voice and singing skills, and it may be overshadowed by other songs."
At this time, Li Qingjue, Lin Linlin, Liu Zhihao and others had also finished reading. Although they did not speak, their expressions had the same meaning as Wang Wen.
They are all musicians, so of course they understand what Wang Wen said.
Faced with this situation, Xiao Qian could only smile bitterly and had to educate these people.
"You guys are playing music and playing magic. I admit that you are right. This song seems to have no characteristics, and it does not bring out Wang Wen's strengths. But have you ever thought that too high-end music will not be popular with the public?
Can you accept it?"
Xiao Qian brought over the scores of other songs and placed them in front of everyone one by one.
"These songs, in the eyes of people who play music and understand music, must be treasures. Because the skills and timbres displayed in them are what musicians dream of. In the eyes of people who understand music, these are all art."
He picked up the score of "Red Bean" again.
"But in the eyes of the public, simple songs that they can learn to sing along with and catchy songs are their favorites."
Wang Wen is very strange.
“If we want to make progress, shouldn’t we challenge ourselves to higher heights?”
This statement was actually recognized by everyone.
Since entering the music industry, the infinite world has attracted everyone to explore constantly. As a result, Xiao Qian now said that this is not necessary, which is completely contrary to everyone's ideas.
However, in the face of their doubts, Xiao Qian only used one sentence to fight back.
"But it doesn't make any money."
A group of people looked at each other, and then they remembered that in addition to being musicians, they were also employees of a commercial company.
Can an employee who doesn't want to make money for the company be a good employee?
Even Li Qingjue stopped talking, and Wang Wen, a newbie, had no choice but to remain silent.
She hasn't made any money for the company yet, so of course she has to perform well and strive to get promoted as soon as possible.
Qu Qi told her in private that within Starlight, artists have different levels, and their income and treatment vary greatly.
It's not that Starlight Entertainment treats them differently, but because of the agreement, artists who do well can earn more.
Now that everyone’s doubts have been settled, the next step is the music production process.
"The core purpose of the entire album is meditation in the chaotic urban life. It is the reflection of urban people in today's fast-paced life. It includes three parts: life, work and relationship. "Red Beans" tells the helplessness of urban fast food love
, the relationship between the man and the woman has not yet fully matured, and they choose to break up due to various reasons. At this time, the heroine’s feelings are all contained in the lyrics.”
I don't know why, but listening to Xiao Qian's explanation, Wang Wen's mind unconsciously recalled the person she once was.
He is not a handsome man, but more straightforward. His free and easy character has fascinated countless women.
And she is one of them.
As a woman who devoted herself to music, the other person's talent was a fatal poison to her. Falling into despair, she gave up everything to be with him.
Even though everyone praises her beauty, she is willing to serve him tea and water.
In the cold and windy winter, she is the first to get up every day and open the door to deal with the smelly toilet.
No matter how many friends felt sorry for her, she was happy to do so.
However, the beautiful love she dreamed of many times eventually collapsed in the cold reality.
Isn't this her life and her love?
Now when she read the lyrics, an unforgettable feeling swept through her body instantly, making her eyes turn red very quickly.
When she looked up at the young man again, she was filled with resentment. Her heart-burning sorrow made her feel ashamed.
Xiao Qian was talking enthusiastically when he suddenly realized that something was wrong in the atmosphere. When he looked at Wang Wen, he was met with this extremely sad look.
"Sister Wen, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Wen woke up with a start and quickly lowered her head to cover it up.
"I...I think this song is very good, and it's just right to be the title song."
Others were completely confused and looked at her as if she was insane.
It was you who thought the song was almost meaningless just now, but now it’s you who thinks it’s good.
Oh, a fickle woman.
Xiao Qian was confused and didn't know why she said that.
Choosing "Red Beans" as the title song was a decision he made personally. Whether Wang Wen accepts it or doesn't like it, she has no right to refuse.
Not having time to think about this, Xiao Qian began to explain in depth.
"You can think of this song as a woman's thoughts after falling out of love. Imagine that one day, it's raining and the atmosphere is depressing. Decadent, you are silently cooking red bean porridge in the kitchen. When you are bored, you suddenly think of your own feelings.
What will it look like?”
When the producer guides the singer to control the work, he does not just need to teach the singer how to sing.
That's an entry-level approach, and it's often not taught well enough to allow singers to master the essence of a piece of music.
A truly good producer is the same as a good director.
The singer must be integrated into the artistic conception of the song and resonate with the work from the deepest part of his heart.
Bringing the singer's emotions into the song and forming an emotional interaction, the works performed in this way are the best works.
This is why many singers take a year and a half to prepare an album.
Of course, this is the same as in a movie. A self-entertainment that may turn into a singer's self-entertainment will become a different feeling in the ears of the audience——What the hell?
No way, artistic creation is inherently subjective.
Whether it can capture the hearts of the public is a matter of probability.
A strong entertainment company can minimize the probability of failure, while other singers have a high probability of failure.
"When singing this song, you don't need to use too much force. Your voice itself is penetrating, so don't be afraid of being suppressed by the melody. Also, do you sometimes get distracted?"
Wang Wen nodded to express understanding.
As long as we are human beings, there will always be times when we are preoccupied and isolated from ourselves. Everyone is suffering, but only people know it.
Now that she understands, it's much easier for Xiao Qian.
"This is a very delicate and lingering song, focusing on the outpouring of emotions. So when you sing, try to make the song sound slightly diffuse, but the form is dispersed but the spirit is not dispersed, and the emotions should be revealed naturally.
."
Xiao Qian said eloquently that Wang Wen was not doing well, but the others were very nervous.
Good guy, isn’t this difficulty requirement too high?
It is the first time for many people to realize that being a singer is not easy.
On the contrary, Wang Wen was excited and eager to try.
She is no longer a little girl, and she knows very well that the higher Xiao Qian's requirements are, the more it proves that the company values her.
Thinking back to excellent works like "Red Bean", this time, maybe it will really soar into the sky.
"Give me some time and I'll eat it thoroughly."
This guarantee made Xiao Qian very happy.
How relaxed he would be if all his singers were so hard-working and uncomplaining.
But they can't be like Wen Yi and Jing Qi, who are simply outstanding representatives of the worst employees.
"Then I'll give you three days. I'll be here in three days and I'll record it for you myself."
Oops, everyone looked at Wang Wen with admiration again.
Although many of the works of the company's singers were written by Xiao Qian, nowadays Xiao Qian rarely appears on the front line of recording.
To be valued so highly by Xiao Qian, this Wang Wen will go to heaven!
