Rebirth just wants to make money

Su Cheng took the lyrics and said, "Thank you, I'll listen to it again."
Then she pressed the repeat button on the CD player, Dandelion's promise, and the melody came out slowly from the earphones.Su Cheng looked at the lyrics and listened to the singing. From the beginning, he could only listen to it, and then he gradually became able to hum along. This process only took three songs including the first time.
When Su Cheng replayed it for the third time, he was already able to sing along to the lyrics.
Jay Chou, who was not far away, was very surprised, he kept watching from the side, and when Su Cheng sang along again, the lyrics in his hand had already been put down.
"How did she do it?"
Jaylen's expression gradually became confused.
It is said that he never sings songs written by others, because he can't sing original songs.Only he himself knows that a large part of the reason for not singing other people's songs is that he can't remember the lyrics of his own songs, so how can he have the energy to memorize other people's lyrics?
So how did Su Cheng do it?
After waiting for Su Cheng to stop, he tentatively asked, "Have you written down the lyrics?"
Su Cheng nodded, his eyes were big.
"Then I'll accompany you, can you sing it now?" Jaylen asked again.
"It should be fine," Su Cheng said.
Then, Jay brought the group to the musical instrument room.The assistant arranged a seat for everyone, and Jay brought Su Cheng to the piano, sat down by himself, and let Su Cheng stand beside him.
Ding ding ding.
He tried a few notes, then turned to Su Cheng and said, "I will remind you to sing when it's time to sing, just start singing."
Su Cheng silently nodded again.
Immediately, Jay's fingers danced smoothly on the keyboard of the piano, and the melodious melody slowly spread throughout the musical room.
His fingering is very proficient, and he does not play in a stormy way like a concert-level pianist, but in a performance-style playing with a wide range of movements and a clear understanding.
The core of the performance style of playing is the piano itself. The pianist should aim to play the most beautiful melody, and all other performances are just for the auxiliary of the music.
The performance style of playing, the core lies in the performance of the player himself, not the piano itself.In other words, Jay, who is playing the piano at the moment, is a bit like an actor. He is acting as a pianist, and everyone's attention will be on him, not on the piano.
This is the difference between the two.
But what's the use of telling the difference?
For these laymen present, it is really useless.Even if you look at the entire entertainment industry, it's still useless.Only when Jay is compared with a real pianist can the gap in performance be truly reflected.
Now Jay Chou's piano level, let alone a layman, is very good even for those who have passed the piano test of level nine and level ten in China.
With his current ability, it is more than enough to accompany Su Cheng.He even deliberately suppressed it, fearing that the accompaniment would be too brilliant, thus suppressing Su Cheng's singing.
Being suppressed by the accompaniment is a mistake that many newcomers tend to make, and Jay is trying to avoid it now.
but
As the prelude came to an end, Jay Chou said a little hello and sang, and Su Cheng's singing gradually reached the ears of everyone present.
"Dandelions by the elementary school fence."
"It is a landscape with flavor in memory."
"The sound of cicadas came from the nap playground."
"It still sounds good after many years."
While listening to Su Cheng's singing, while talking about the piano accompaniment, Jay could still turn his head to look at Su Cheng's expression calmly under such circumstances.
The previous two times, Su Cheng hummed along, the lyrics were correct, and the melody was fine, but that's all.
It's just humming after all.
But this time is different.
This time Su Cheng really regarded it as a performance, he was serious, using his own understanding of this song to perform this song.She didn't feel shy because her brother and sister-in-law were around, the accompaniment was in her ears, and the moment she opened her mouth to sing, she was immersed in her own world.
That devoted expression made Jay feel a little surprised, plus Su Cheng's current singing skills.
It wasn't until the whole song ended and the last note struck from the piano dissipated into the air that Jay Chou let out a surprised expression and asked, "It seems to be much better than last time, the breath is very stable, and the voice is also Same stability. Have you practiced it?"
"After returning to school last time, I went to learn vocal music." Su Cheng said.
"No wonder." Jay Chou said, "I only know one person who sings as steadily as you."
"Oh? No way, am I that powerful?"
In addition to being surprised, Su Cheng was also slightly delighted, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.
"It may also be that I don't know many people, oh." Jay Chou said, "JJ, you should know that he is also very popular. I will introduce you next time."
So Su Cheng's eyes started to flash.
Besides Jay, JJ is also her idol.
The later Double J in the music world, although young now, has a pivotal position in the music world, and is the idol of many young people today
Of course, this is just a small episode, and the matter of recording songs is the most important thing at the moment.
Now that there is no problem with Su Cheng, we can arrange the song next.
Arranging music is different from composing music. If you compare songwriting to painting, the process of composing music is to complete the painting with pencils, while arranging is to color the painting.
What needs to be determined in composition is the melody, which is a creative process from zero to one.
Arrangement is to add bricks and tiles to the song on the basis of determining the melody.For example, what kind of instrument is used for accompaniment, and the main melody is presented with piano and guitar, which are two completely different effects.At the same time, in the process of accompaniment, what kind of sound effect is added at a certain point, sometimes there may be only the sound of a water drop, and the feeling of the whole song will also change drastically.
That is to say, the arrangement is based on the preceding one, and zeros are added behind the one.Whether the arrangement is excellent or not determines the number of zeros in the back.
Sometimes a song was not popular when it was first released, but it was later sung by someone, but it suddenly became popular.A large part of this is due to the composition problem.
A good arrangement can also make a song.
In terms of lyrics, Jay has a lyricist named Fang Shan, and in terms of arrangement, he also has a lyricist named Lin Mike.
Maybe it's because the task of arranging music is relatively more professional, and many young people don't understand it, so Lin Mike's popularity is not high, or even non-existent.
Such people are usually well-known in the industry, but they don't have fans everywhere like stars.
Sometimes in music variety shows, there are always people who are unknown to everyone, and the audience who watch them are puzzled, and they will complain, "Who is this?" "I have never heard of it, why are they called teachers?"
In fact, these people are in the industry, and celebrities really want to call them teachers.Without their expertise, many of the albums that everyone loves simply would not have appeared in the world.
No matter how many fans the star has outside or how famous he is, without the support of these professionals behind him, it is just a mirage.
Lian Jielun, a prolific and quality original singer, would call a teacher when he saw someone like Lin Mike.
According to the historical track, Mike Lin was responsible for the arrangement of Dandelion's agreement, and it is still him.It's just a demo of the song, that is, an extra sample.
One was sung by Jay Chou, and the other was sung by Su Cheng.
Because the arrangement has not yet been completed, it is not easy to allocate paragraphs for the time being, and the two of them did not sing together.
But in the end there was still a chorus, so Mike Lin received two demos at the same time.
He had to understand the voices of these two people separately before he could start to arrange the music.Arrangers should not only serve songs, but also serve singers.Different singers are suitable for different styles of arrangement, and it cannot be generalized.
Some people sang cover songs and sang directly according to the original arrangement. In the end, there is a high probability that they will hit the street because they may not be suitable.But if you use it to re-arrange and cover it yourself, then there is a high probability that the cover will be successful. After all, the melody of the song itself is excellent.
Later, there were many such examples, so I won't list them one by one.
There is inertia in history, even though Su Che, the butterfly's wings are flapping desperately, the theme song of the milk tea in the end is Dandelion's Promise, even though the brand of milk tea has changed from You Lemei to Promise.
Jay also fell in love with milk tea, from instant milk tea to fresh milk tea.
It is estimated that Jay Chou will still be the best on the road to obesity in the future.
But that's a matter of the future, as long as Jaylen is reliable now.
As for the arrangement, perhaps it was because Su Cheng, a butterfly whose wings were too big, set off a hurricane.In the process of arranging the music, Mike Lin thought about something different from the original arrangement, and added some different elements to it.
Therefore, the final arrangement was quite different from what Su Che heard in his previous life.
This happened three days after Su Cheng recorded the demo.
Lin Mike, an equally prolific arranger, is also very efficient.After all, he has to finish all the remaining arrangements in the album before Jay Chou releases the album Still Fantasy in September.
This has always been a very difficult task.
As we all know, Fantasy is still the best quality among all Jay's albums.
There are divine songs such as Listening to Mom, Thousands of Miles Away, Chrysanthemum Terrace, and Compendium of Materia Medica.
Mike Lin was able to carry forward these good songs with arrangement, at least when he was doing it, he had to be very careful.
And working hard means time-consuming, so his time can be said to be very tight.
But he didn't perfunctory the song of Dandelion's agreement because of this. He listened to the voices of two people repeatedly, imagined the situation when the two people sang duet, and then completed the arrangement.
The main theme is still the piano, but the original drum set in the arrangement is weakened, and the presence of the cello is enhanced, making the whole song more sad than the original.
This change sounds very small, even negligible in the eyes of laymen, but for Su Cheng's joining, it is a stroke of genius.
Chapter 2 Resonance
The producer of this song is Jay Chou.
The role of a producer in music production is similar to that of a director in a movie, the person who controls the production of the entire song.And he is the producer and sings himself, which is equivalent to self-directing and acting in the movie.
In fact, Michael Lin also participated in the composition of the music, but not much, most of them just watched from the sidelines, and occasionally offered some opinions.
After all, he is also his queen arranger, so the tacit understanding is still very good.
After the arrangement was completed, Jay came with the tune and handed over the divided song sections to Su Cheng, and then the two walked into the recording studio together.
Through the big glass, Su Che and Qin Luoluo, together with the entire production team, watched the two people in the recording studio slowly walk to the microphone and put on the earphones.
With the tuner yelling "three, two, one."
The accompaniment sounded.
It was Jay Chou who spoke first. His unique voice, combined with his personalized articulation and inaudible singing, made it confusing for those who didn't have the lyrics, but the melody was still very good.
And the timbre of Jay's singing is actually very pleasant, and his lyric songs have a unique taste.
It's just that his rapping ability is stronger, which makes people ignore his singing skills.Even if his singing skills are not top-notch in the Chinese music scene, it's not too far from being top-notch.
Especially young now.
Of course, I won’t mention the matter of being addicted to milk tea later, I’m afraid that Jay Chou won’t be able to get off the stage if I mention it too much.
Su Che was listening to the singing outside, and felt that the outside world's evaluation of Jay's singing skills was still low.Unlike the concert scene, the sound of the concert scene is noisy, and the singer's mistakes in singing will be infinitely reduced. Basically, as long as it is not broken or out of tune, there is no problem in singing.
But the recording studio is different. It is very quiet here. Apart from the accompaniment, it is the singing, which is very clear, and even a slight flaw can be caught.
How to describe this feeling? It is probably the feeling of singing, recording, and listening to K songs by yourself in later generations of national K songs.
When I sang it myself, I obviously thought it was pretty good, but when I listened to the recorded ones, I found some of them were ugly.
That's how it is in the studio.
All mistakes can be accurately caught and recorded by the outside tuner for later modification.
The songs in any CD have to be revised, because no one can make no mistakes in the actual singing process Oh yes, except for the person who called the walking CD, he does not count.
So this is the meaning of the existence of the tuner.
Of course, the role of the tuner is only to assist, to correct the singer's mistakes.As for the singing style and emotion when singing, there is no way for the tuner to modify them.
The same CD, some people's songs sound very flat, even if the pitch is good and the breath is very stable, but it just doesn't sound good.But for some people, even if the intonation is not so good, and the breath is a little unstable, it sounds very pleasant.
This is the difference between singing with or without emotion and the way you sing.
Compared to the dedicated Jay Chou, Su Cheng's singing was a little bit worse. Her talent and practice made her intonation very good, and her breathing was very stable.But after the whole song was sung, everyone could hear that Su Cheng was suppressed by Jay.
For details, you can refer to Xu Liang, one of the three giants of QQ Music in the future. When he sings, he is always suppressed by female voices.
Although Su Cheng's suppression by Jay Chou was not that serious, everyone present could still hear it.
After singing a song, the two walked out of the recording studio.
As a professional, Jay knew early on that it was impossible to do it all at once.When he came out, he said to the tuner: "Please play it once, and I will listen to it."
Then the same song as before echoed in the room again.
Jay Clenched his chin while listening, frowning from time to time.As for Su Cheng's words, the more he listened, the more tangled his expression became.
She could tell that she couldn't sing well.
If it was a solo singing, this song would be qualified now, but the one she sang with was Jay Chou.A person whose singing skills were overlooked because of his creative talent.
