Before working in the entertainment industry, Xiao Qian always believed that big-name singers rarely returned because of hunger for marketing.
But after really getting into contact with this industry, I realized that this was not the case at all.
There is only one reason why big-name singers have few comebacks.
That means the price/performance ratio is too low.
Whether it is an entertainment company or the singer himself, the purpose of debut activities is only one, and that is to make money.
It cannot be said that singers do not have dreams, but dreams that do not make money are nonsense.
If the artist is promoted, becomes famous, and makes money, then the purpose of the entertainment company and the artist itself will be achieved.
The situation of practitioners in the entertainment industry can be described as a world of ice and fire.
The unknown people live like flies and dogs, suffering from hunger and cold; the famous people have unlimited scenery and are surrounded by stars.
Once an artist becomes famous, his career in the entertainment industry will be smooth and he will gain both fame and fortune.
For them, there is no shortage of ways to make money.
Just do business performances, do activities, and participate in programs, and you can make a lot of money.
Take her as an example. Now they perform in commercials and perform two songs for a price of 350,000 yuan.
An album costs 15 yuan. How many copies do you need to sell to reach 350,000 yuan?
Entertainment companies and famous singers rarely come back, and there is another concern, that is, they are worried that their comebacks will not meet public expectations.
The outside world thinks that you are a top singer, so once you come back, your works will definitely be better than before, so there is a sense of expectation.
But the problem is that no one can guarantee that the creation will always be at a high level.
Moreover, music creation is a very subjective thing. What is considered a good work by the producer and what is considered a good work by the public are often not the same thing.
Once the comeback work fails to meet public expectations, it will cause huge damage to the singer's brand.
This is just like the Apple mobile phone in the previous life.
Every time a new model is launched, it is made with great fanfare and is crazy. But as long as it fails to meet public expectations, many people will return to rational consumption.
Therefore, entertainment companies and famous singers cannot afford to gamble.
If you are not really pushed to the point of having no other choice, then you should really come back as little as possible.
At the very least, this way you can maintain a tall image in the minds of the public.
However, these concerns were minimized in Xingguang.
Because Starlight has a time traveler and is a realist, as long as it makes a comeback, it will definitely be a classic.
These works have withstood the test in previous lives, and the risk of return is immediately minimized.
Nowadays, there are not many singers from Starlight returning, simply because they have too much work and lack of skills.
However, there are also people who specialize in music, so they can put their comeback on the agenda.
Ah Hao and Feng Zhe came to the production studio, feeling excited.
The company's 2001 plan actually started with them.
The southbound moonlight returns without any resistance.
They are folk singers with few restrictions and a fixed audience. They do not need to rely on fame to survive.
If there is fire, everyone is happy; if there is no fire, it doesn't matter.
Ah Hao and Feng Zhe are not people who pursue fame and fortune.
Their life has always been very peaceful. They work hard when they have work, and sit in the production studio sculpting music when they don't have work.
Nowadays, the two of them have not only stored many songs for themselves, but also written many good songs for other singers in the industry.
The names of well-known producers have been placed on their heads.
However, in front of Xiao Qian, they did not have the confidence of well-known producers. Instead, they were excited and anxious at the same time, waiting for Xiao Qian to make a decision.
"I have reviewed the songs you two submitted. They are very good and are your style."
Xiao Qian's conclusion made Ah Hao and Feng Zhe extremely happy.
In the entire music circle, the person they admire the most is Xiao Qian.
Not only because Xiao Qian was their leader in entering the industry, but also because of Xiao Qian’s achievements in the field of music creation.
Every time they view Xiao Qian's works, they learn new things and concepts.
Both of them clearly felt that through this kind of learning, they had grown much better than before.
But they were happy too early, and Xiao Qian changed the subject.
“Where’s the title song?”
Ah Hao and Feng Zhe were stunned, and then their expressions turned pale.
In order to return, they submitted more than a dozen works to the company. The songs were good, but none of them could bear the important responsibility of the title song.
An album can have as few as seven or eight songs, or as many as more than ten songs. But most of the real selling points are the title songs.
There are only a very few albums that are not the main hits and become popular inexplicably.
Whether the public likes an album or not is mostly judged by the title song.
Therefore, when a singer is preparing an album, he can play with other works casually, but the title song must be carefully considered.
Obviously, Xiao Qian's words were telling them that none of their works was qualified to be the title song.
Ahao scratched his hair and wanted to cry but had no tears.
"It's gone, it's really gone. We are not very satisfied, but we really have no inspiration."
Feng Zhe knew that such an answer would not satisfy Xiao Qian, so he hesitated and said, "Actually, we still have an idea, but we can't always perfect it. We are also very sorry."
It can be clearly seen that a hint of excitement flashed across Ahao's face.
"Yes, yes, that idea is very good, but when I create it, it always falls a little short."
Nanxing Moonlight is different from other singers in that they can create original songs. So most of the time, Xiao Qian doesn't interfere much with their album preparation.
He would only take action when there was really something wrong with it.
When I heard what they said, I knew it was time to take action myself.
"Let's talk, the three stooges are better than Zhuge Liang, maybe I can help you."
If he didn't suggest it, Ah Hao and Feng Zhe would ask him for help.
If you have any questions about music, go to Mr. Xiao. Isn’t this the consensus of everyone in Starlight?
Ah Hao was the first to say: "This idea is actually Feng Zhe's personal experience."
Feng Zhe actually felt embarrassed.
However, after many years, he quickly maintained calm.
"When I was in my hometown, there was a girl I liked very much. She was very beautiful and kind-hearted. I knew she liked me too, and she would always hide in the corner and look at me."
Oh, Gossip, Xiao is my favorite.
"You like each other, but your parents objected, so you two eloped?"
Feng Zhe's face turned into pig liver, and he felt a little annoyed.
"Don't...talk nonsense."
He calmed down again, but Feng Zhe's expression was full of nostalgia and regret.
"At that time, I had nothing, so what could I do even if I liked her very much? I knew that I couldn't give her anything. She had a happy, wealthy family, and I really couldn't do it to let her suffer with me.
"
Unexpectedly, this guy is actually a kind and responsible person.
"At that time, I couldn't sleep every night, just thinking about what to do. Later, I finally made up my mind. I wanted to leave my hometown and go out to work. I wanted to make a name for myself and bring her happiness with a
I have the strength to go back and tell her that I like her in front of her."
Xiao Qian already understood something.
"It's a pity that it's not easy to come out and make a living. After many years of wasted time, things have changed. When I heard about her again, she was already married, right?"
Feng Zhe looked up in surprise.
"You...how do you know?"
Xiao Qian let out a long sigh.
"There is only one thing in this world that cannot be waited for, and that is love. Waiting until the end is often tragic."
Feng Zhe was speechless, savoring Xiao Qian's advice, and in the end could only keep rubbing his face with his palms.
Time has passed, and when I talk about this incident, I am not even that sad anymore.
"I told Ah Hao about this, and Ah Hao said that if it is done well, it can be a good song. But we have been working hard for more than two months, but we still can't grasp the essence. I don't know.
It’s because my heart is confused, but I still can’t forget the beauty of the past.”
Okay, it doesn't matter if you two are in trouble. Since this is the story, Xiao Qian had an idea.
He took the guitar from the corner and strummed the strings a few times. The melodious sound of the guitar was full of ups and downs in the story.
【Tonight I came to your window again
How lovely your shadow is on the curtains
I have loved you quietly for so many years
I'm leaving tomorrow
How many times have I come to your window
I also wanted to knock on the door and ask you to come out.
Think about your beauty and my ordinaryness
Walk away silently again and again...]
The melody is exciting and moving, and the singing is melodious and affectionate. Ahao and Feng Zhe have long been immersed in the singing and cannot extricate themselves.
