Entertainment, I really only know a little

Chapter 159 To become the king of singers, one song is enough... (for subscription)
"Teacher Qingya, this is Lao Zhang's information."

Wang Xueru passed a piece of information to Chen Yi.

Lao Zhang in the information was originally named Zhang Sheng.

He became famous at a young age, entered the music scene in his teens and achieved good results.

But for the past twenty years, although singing has been active in the front line, it is far from the true peak.

Until one day, when Zhang Sheng suddenly posted a thank you on Weibo for not being spared by the years.

From now on.

Zhang Sheng is no longer the young Zhang Sheng, but has become the old Zhang in the eyes of others.

Speaking of Lao Zhang's song.

Probably most people have heard of it.

But a pity.

Lao Zhang has never really become famous.

"Listen to Lao Zhang's song first."

For the martial arts drama, Chen Yi asked Ge Daming to prepare, so Chen Yi still has a few days to spare.

and so.

Chen Yi is planning to see what songs he wants to write in these days.

Although the system in Chen Yi's mind contains a lot of popular songs from his previous life.

But being popular is one thing, and sometimes you can’t just release a song.

What if the singer was popular in the previous life but not in this life?
and so.

Many times Chen Yi writes songs based on the styles of singers from this generation.

Such as Zhu Kang.

This reminded Chen Yi of Tu Honggang.

For example, Zhu Qin reminded Chen Yi of Tian Zhen.

Another example is Xu Ting, which reminded Chen Yi of Liang Jingru.

"This voice."

"It's just God's blessing."

Listening to Lao Zhang's song quietly, Chen Yi said with a smile.

Lao Zhang's voice can be said to be extremely unique.

Such uniqueness.

Even if Lao Zhang's singing skills are average, he can still exude a unique charm among the crowd.

Such a singer.

It doesn't even take much effort.

He can reach a state that others cannot reach in their lifetime.

And as long as he works hard, he can become famous instantly.

In fact, Lao Zhang is not just a talent.

Lao Zhang's singing skills are among the best in the entire industry.

at least.

After listening to more than ten songs in a row, Chen Yi felt that they were even better than Tu Honggang.

of course.

Chen Yi didn't think Tu Hong's singing skills were bad.

Tu Honggang's singing skills are very good. When it comes to singing those majestic songs, ordinary singers really can't compare.

But this also restricted Tu Honggang.

In terms of other styles, Tu Honggang couldn't control them.

In other words, Tu Honggang can also sing in other styles.

But basically, you rarely hear other songs other than Tu Honggang's domineering.

Moreover, Tu Honggang's songs are domineering, but most people really can't sing them.

It's like farewell to my concubine, and it's like serving the country with loyalty.

Even if you can sing, you can't sing like this.

And the music scene.

It has always been a world of love songs.

Listening to such domineering songs is certainly very satisfying, but in terms of popularity, it has never been able to increase.

This is even though many people have heard Tu Honggang’s songs.

But let’s talk about fans.

Tu Honggang's fans are very average.

"Mr. Wang, help me contact Mr. Zhang."

"Teacher Qingya, are you inspired so quickly?"

"It's not that I have inspiration, but that I've written a song."

Yes.

this time.

Chen Yi directly thought of a song that was very suitable for Lao Zhang.

"This speed..."

Wang Xueru was stunned.

It took about 20 minutes at most since I uploaded the information just now.

Composed a new song in about 20 minutes?
Is it too fast?
Although it is not impossible.

If you want to talk about speed.

Sometimes it takes 10 minutes or 5 minutes to create a song.

But to create a high-quality song, it takes more than just a few minutes.

However, Qingya cannot be evaluated with common sense.

Immediately, Wang Xueru contacted Lao Zhang.

At this moment, Lao Zhang was drinking wine with friends in a bar.

"Lao Zhang, sing one?"

The friend looked at Lao Zhang, pointed to the stage in front of him, and said.

"If there is anything good to sing, it is the world of young people."

Lao Zhang smiled and shook his head: "Why should I join in the fun?"

"Let me go, Lao Zhang, how old are you? More than 30 years old."

"40."

"Obviously I remember it was more than 30."

"39, to be precise."

"That's it, 39, not 40 yet, how old are you? Don't think that when people call you Lao Zhang, you are really old. At least, I think you are still a pretty boy. I can always remember your appearance when you debuted. .Tell me, did you look like them back then?"

The friends here are talking about the singers who sing in the clear bars.

Before some singers become famous, they often sing in some bars, pubs, concert halls...

They hope to become a professional singer one day.

Lao Zhang came here the same way back then.

Just a pity.

Basically, more than 99% of singers disappear in the end.

Only a few lucky people can be remembered by everyone.

Lao Zhang is undoubtedly the lucky one.

Although my friend is not an insider, he has watched Lao Zhang grow up step by step.

"They are."

Looking at the resident singers in front of him, Lao Zhang's eyes showed tenderness.

But after a while, it still changed to its original appearance.

"Old Zhang, you can't do this."

"I know it's not possible either."

"Why haven't you released a new album in the past year? In fact, you even sing very few songs."

"I also want to release a new album, but there is nothing new to sing about."

As he spoke, Lao Zhang shook his head again.

In fact, Tianyu Media still values ​​Lao Zhang very much.

Anyway.

Although Lao Zhang has not reached the level of King of Singers, his popularity has remained strong.

Over the past 20 years, Lao Zhang has cultivated a group of die-hard fans.

Many people say that as long as there is an opportunity, Lao Zhang can become the king of singers.

But the opportunity never came.

"Have you asked any of the music dads to ask for songs?"

"Originally, Teacher Qu He wanted to create a tailor-made album for me, but as you know, Teacher Qu He is no longer with Tianyu."

"Teacher Qu He is very powerful. If he packs it for you in all aspects, it should be possible."

"maybe."

Lao Zhang said: "Later, I talked with the company's senior management, and the company's senior management said that there was an opportunity to ask Mr. Zhong to take action."

"Mr. Zhong, Zhong Shuhua?"

"Yes."

"Oh my God, if Mr. Zhong takes action, you will be angry. But it seems that he has retired..."

"Yeah, he retired."

"and then?"

"Then there is no then."

Spreading his hands, Lao Zhang looked helpless.

My friend was also embarrassed for a while.

He was still happy for Lao Zhang, but as a result, this legend in the music industry washed his hands in a golden basin.

"But not without then..."

As he said that, Lao Zhang said: "The company helped me make a song appointment with Teacher Qingya."

"Qingya...is that Qingya who took the shooting of the Condor?"

"Correct."

"Can you also write songs?"

"Well...he was originally a music producer. Serving the country with loyalty, Farewell My Concubine, Unfortunately Not You, Courage, and many of Jiangxia's songs were all written by Teacher Qingya."

"Oh, I remember. Teacher Qingya, the rising star back then, single-handedly helped Jiang Xia win the championship."

"Yes, this is the one."

"The songs he writes are good."

The friend was somewhat interested: "Although he is not a Qu dad, his strength is already up to Qu dad's standards. In fact, his strength is completely better than the average Qu dad."

"That's what I say, but Teacher Qingya has too many creative styles. Sometimes the songs he writes are really not suitable for me to sing."

For example, in Stars of Tomorrow, we created songs that grandparents love.

This made Lao Zhang afraid to touch him.

It's not that he can't sing.

It's not that he hates it.He actually thinks these songs are quite fun.

For a while, he sang these songs several times in KTV.

But KTV, which is private in nature, can naturally sing.

But when he actually releases an album and distributes it to the public, his image will completely collapse.

As for why Jiang Xia can sing.

That's entirely because Jiang Xia is a newcomer.

No matter what style a newcomer has, as long as he can sing the best.

Once it becomes popular, look for style.

As for the songs written for Zhu Kang, they are too domineering and not suitable for Lao Zhang who takes the emotional route.

Yes.

To the point where they are, every singer is basically limited.

It is difficult for them to have the opportunity to try other genres.

Even if they had the chance, they wouldn't try it.

Because it doesn't match my style at all.

If you sing well, you won't gain much points; if you sing poorly, you will lose your fans completely.

Just talking.

At this time, Lao Zhang received a call.

"Old Zhang, where are you?"

"Have a drink with friends outside."

"Go back to the company, Teacher Qingya is inspired."

"Okay, I'll be there in a while."

Although I don’t have much hope for Qingya.

But for now, Qingya can be said to be Tianyu's top music producer.

Judging from the treatment given by the company, it is obvious that he will take over from Mr. Zhong.

Regardless of whether Qingya's style is in line with Lao Zhang's, Lao Zhang attaches great importance to it.

"Sorry, I'll go back to the company first."

"Lao Zhang, I believe you this time."

"Let me go, look at you, do you believe me or Teacher Qingya?"

"Hahaha, I believe it all."

The friend smiled and said: "Although I don't know much about Qingya, I feel that Teacher Qingya is still a very cute creator. Especially on his Weibo, he says some ridiculous things from time to time. I think Qingya The teacher's creative style should be very diverse. Maybe the inspiration I got today is similar to yours, so seize the opportunity."

"hope so."

With this said, Lao Zhang also became somewhat hopeful.

……

Half an hour later, Lao Zhang returned to Tianyu.

Just as Lao Zhang was about to enter the recording room, a burst of guitar sound came to his ears.

Then came a burst of singing.

"You are always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted.

Weeping alone until dawn..."

The singer's voice was messy, and Lao Zhang frowned.

I have heard a few words,

subconsciously.

Lao Zhang stopped.

"You are always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted..."

Although the other party's voice is not very good.

But this song undoubtedly stunned Lao Zhang.

how to say.

This song doesn't sound very pleasant to the ear.

It's not that amazing when you hear it.

On the contrary, it sounds ordinary to you.

Ordinary is like a song written by an average music songwriter.

Or even a tune that an ordinary person hums casually.

Correct.

If you want to evaluate it, this song feels like an ordinary song.

But when he listened again, Lao Zhang was fascinated by this ordinary-sounding song.

until the song is over.

Lao Zhang came to the recording studio.

"Lao Zhang, you are here, this is Teacher Qingya."

"Teacher Qingya?"

Lao Zhang did not have any more courtesy with Chen Yi.

Looking at Chen Yi, Lao Zhang said: "Teacher Qingya, was it you who sang the song just now?"

"Ok?"

"What's the name of the song?"

"The heart is too soft."

"Can I try it?"

"Yes...but..."

Chen Yi was about to give Lao Zhang the score.

At this time, Lao Zhang played and sang by himself.

This song is really simple.

Once you listen to it a few times, you will be able to sing it.

Not to mention for professional singers.

"You are always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted..."

Professional singers are professional singers.

It is far beyond the comparison of behind-the-scenes creatives like Chen Yi.

But Chen Yizhi is not here.

He doesn't want to sing at the front desk just yet.

If singing.

Being the King of Singers is nothing to him.

"How about it? This song is good, isn't it?"

Finished a song.

Wang Xueru on the side clapped her hands excitedly.

When Chen Yi sang just now, Wang Xueru already felt how extraordinary this song was.

But after all, Chen Yi's singing skills were completely confused, and Wang Xueru didn't feel that deeply at the time.

but.

When a singer was changed.

When Lao Zhang sang.

That unusual feeling came over me.

As for what this feeling is.

Wang Xueru couldn't explain clearly.

But as an agent in the industry, I still have some discernment.

She felt this song should be a hit.

But how popular it will be, she doesn't know yet.

"This song?"

But Lao Zhang didn't seem to listen to Wang Xueru's words.

He was a little quiet during the song just now.

immediately.

Lao Zhang ignored Wang Xueru, took the guitar, and started singing again.

"Teacher Qingya, what's going on?"

Somewhat confused, Wang Xueru looked at Chen Yi.

Chen Yi smiled and said: "Ignore him, let's go."

"Where?"

"Back to the office."

"Then do you still want to record?"

"Record."

"But now Lao Zhang...this..."

"Don't look at it. Even if you want to record a song, you have to wait until Lao Zhang wakes up."

"OK then."

Looking back at Mr. Zhang, Wang Xueru gave instructions to the two staff members and followed Chen Yi away.

……

"Teacher Qingya, what do you think of the song "Heart Is Too Soft"?"

"Didn't you listen?"

"I'm not a singer, I don't know how to evaluate it."

"What a coincidence, I'm not a singer, so I don't know how to evaluate it."

"Pfft...Teacher Qingya, don't be joking. However, this song is too soft-hearted. Although it felt normal at first, I became fascinated after listening to it. What do you think?"

"I don't know. I'm only responsible for writing songs, not singing."

"Teacher Qingya, you..."

"Okay, no kidding, I think it should be fine."

"Teacher Qingya, is there anything wrong with what you said?"

"The king of singers?"

"what……"

Wang Xueru shouted loudly: "King of Singers?"

The sound startled Chen Yi.

"I said Mr. Wang, what are you doing so loudly? You were almost startled."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Teacher Qingya, I was too excited. What did you say just now, King of Singers? Do you mean that Lao Zhang can become the King of Singers with this song?"

"Correct."

"Just one song?"

"Yes."

Chen Yi continued to nod: "Just one song!!!"
