Superstar Aspirations

When Rong Xu sang the second time, he didn't know that Zhao Kun had only now arranged for his men to start recording the song.His right hand rested lightly on the recording microphone, and it seemed that he had touched it, but in fact it was separated by an undetectable distance.

Most singers have a little habit when recording, and Rong Xu likes to get a little closer to the microphone.In this way, it seems that you can get closer to the device that is about to record your own voice, and you can get closer to and grasp the other party.

Last week, Zhao Kun handed over the DEMO of "Lost Wings" to Rong Xu. In the past week, whenever he returned to the hotel after filming, Rong Xu would repeatedly listen to the demo, read the music score, and try to sing.

Any good singer cannot be achieved overnight.

To be able to sing a song to perfection just by looking at the score is definitely the plot of a TV series.How to deal with the articulation between the lyrics and how to grasp the rhythm of the breath, all need to try repeatedly to get the result.

However, there is still a difference between personal singing and studio recording. There is a gentle and peaceful music sound from the earphones. Rong Xu recalled a few shortcomings in his first recording, thought for a while in his heart, and made some corrections.

Just like before, the boy's voice is still clearer and clearer, like the morning after the rain, sweeping away all the impurities and stains in the world, leaving only the purest and freshest air.The skills are also handled very well. Even many singers who have debuted for four or five years do not have such superb singing skills.

Zhao Kun listened to the song "Lost Wing", and looked at Rong Xu's eyes gradually deepened.

He didn't believe that someone could possess such skills without any professional training.The voice is born, but the skills are acquired. If a layman is asked to sing, how can he perfectly grasp the rhythm of exhalation and inhalation, and how can he smoothly handle the arc of each aberration.

But Zhao Kun didn't point it out.Rong Xu must have received professional training, that's Rong Xu's business, he only cares about the result.

She has outstanding looks, has performed some good works, and is very popular...

It is said that acting is good but singing is good. Although this kid's popularity has not reached the level of many first-line artists, but with this voice, he can definitely make a record!

In the recording studio, Rong Xu closed his eyes slightly and was still singing softly. He had already sung the chorus of the second verse.Outside the thick sound-proof glass, two tuners quickly adjusted the equipment on the mixing console. With quick fingers, they removed all the large and small noises, and eliminated Rong Xu's very little breathing and noise.

Qin Cheng entered the recording studio at this time.

He had just opened the door a tiny crack when he heard a low, clear voice coming from the room.

Qin Cheng's movements froze immediately, and the gentle singing voice was mixed with a trace of memory and nostalgia, and it was directly transmitted to his ears.The voice is neither gorgeous nor full of personality, but it is the most simple and direct clean, so clean that it is like a piece of white paper, singing softly in your ears.

Almost immediately, Qin Cheng recognized the voice.

When filming, Rong Xu often sang, but at that time there was no good radio equipment, so he just sang a cappella.But now, with better equipment and more professional tuners, the advantages of this sound are infinitely magnified, and the shortcomings that are already rare can no longer be found.

At this time, Xu Jin finally walked to the door of the recording studio. He was about to ask "Why don't you go in", when he heard this voice suddenly.

Slowly closing his mouth, Xu Jin also stood at the door, listening quietly.When the last line of the lyrics was over, he quietly turned his head to look at the man beside him, only to see that Qin Cheng's handsome and noble face seemed to loosen a little, and his cold eyebrows and eyes seemed to soften a little inexplicably.

The next moment, Qin Cheng pushed the door open and walked in, and what he saw was the boy who had just finished singing and still had his eyes closed.

No one in the room expected Qin Cheng to appear here, Luo Zhentao and the two staff members opened their eyes wide in surprise.Although Zhao Kun knew that Qin Cheng would come, he didn't know that he would come so early.

The sound insulation of this room is really good, Rong Xu didn't hear the door opening, and when he opened his eyes and saw the other party, he was also surprised.

The next thing is extremely simple, Qin Cheng just came to care about the music recording of "Black Cloud", through the glass, he calmly nodded with Rong Xu, and then sat on the sofa beside him.

When the two greeted each other, Qin Cheng still had a paralyzed face, as if he really cared about the movie he was shooting out of his professional ethics.It's just that his eyes were fixed on the young man on the other side of the glass, and when the young man closed his eyes and sang softly, he quietly raised the corners of his lips and listened quietly.

At noon, Zhao Kun put forward some suggestions for Rong Xu's recording, and worked hard all afternoon.

The two staff members had originally planned for a protracted battle, but they didn't expect that at four o'clock in the afternoon, after Rong Xu finished singing again, Zhao Kun looked at Rong Xu in the recording studio with an inexplicable expression. After a long time, he Nodding slightly, he finally smiled: "Very good, you can pass that time just now."

Upon hearing this, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

The song "Lost Wing" is indeed very nice, and Rong Xu sang it very well, but if you listen to it seventy or eighty times... it would be like tormenting a lunatic.

Xu Jin had already taken advantage of the noon break to hide out, but Luo Zhentao, as Rong Xu's manager, could not leave so easily, he could only stay in the recording studio honestly.

But what is strange is that Qin Cheng actually stayed in the recording studio and did not leave, listening seriously for six or seven hours.

After receiving Zhao Kun's affirmation, Rong Xu finally took off the heavy earphones and walked out of the recording studio.Over there, Zhao Kun was instructing the staff to deal with a few small details, while Rong Xu took the coat handed over by Luo Zhentao and walked towards Qin Cheng.

In the evening of early spring, there is still a faint coolness in the air.

Qin Cheng was wearing a dark black thin coat and a light linen woolen scarf. There was no expression on his handsome and noble face, and he looked a little cold and unapproachable.Seeing the other party, Rong Xu couldn't help but smile, and said: "I thought you had already finished your business, and you should not be in City S anymore. Have you never returned to City B, Qin Cheng?"

Not far away, Zhao Kun heard Rong Xu's words, and turned his head to look at them in surprise. Obviously, he did not expect that the relationship between Rong Xu and Qin Cheng was so good.

The old people in Huaxia Entertainment know that Qin Cheng is not easy to get along with. Even actors who have worked with him may not be able to become friends. For example, Xia Muyan, she and Qin Cheng have collaborated in a movie before, and recently The pair starred in an upcoming "Disciple," but the two don't seem to have much contact in private.

The golden sunlight poured down from the window behind Qin Cheng and landed on the boy's body, reflecting a layer of light golden edges.Perhaps the sunlight was too soft, and the delicate face was beautiful and illusory against the sunlight.

Qin Cheng watched Rong Xu put on his coat.

This young man seems to like wearing a white sweater very much. This sweater is different from the ones Qin Cheng has seen before. The high collar completely covers the slender collarbone, revealing only a small section of his fair neck, which makes people daydream .

Just glanced at it lightly, Qin Cheng quickly turned his gaze away, and said in a calm tone: "I just happened to be dealing with some things in S city these two days." After a pause, he saw that Rong Xu had completely put on his coat. , the voice couldn't help but lowered a little, and said: "You sang very well just now."

Hearing such praise, Rong Xu smiled slightly: "I hope Director Liang will be satisfied. He told me before that if I can't sing this song well, he will go crazy."

The two spoke a few more words, and soon the staff finished processing all the music that had just been recorded, played it, and asked Zhao Kun to review it for the last time.

Listening to his own voice coming from the stereo, Rong Xu beat to the beat of the music, carefully looking for his own deficiencies.After listening to it about three times, Zhao Kun finally nodded in agreement.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao Kun also looked at Rong Xu with a smile, and said seriously: "This time it's really good, it's the best song I've heard in the past two years."

Hearing this, Rong Xu was slightly startled, and nodded with a smile: "Thank you for the compliment, Brother Zhao."

Zhao Kun waved his hand with a look of indifference, but the two staff members beside him were all stunned.

To get such an evaluation from Director Zhao... this Rong Xu is really amazing!

A good piece of music lies not only in the composition and lyrics, but also in the person who sings it.Good songs are always complemented by works and singers. Zhao Kun supervises and produces many music works every year, many of which sell millions of works, but he actually said that this song "Lost Wing" is the one he has listened to in the past two years the best.

For a moment, the two staff members looked at Rong Xu differently.

On the other hand, Zhao Kun also stared at Rong Xu with a smile on his face, his eyeballs twitching, wondering what he was thinking.

For the next three days, Rong Xu spent all of it in the recording studio.The song he wants to record is not only "Lost Wing", but also eight episodes and one theme song.The theme song is of course "Black Clouds". This song is more difficult, because with Ling Xiaozhuyu in front, how to express another version of "Black Clouds" is extremely challenging.

This song "Black Clouds" was also recorded for a whole day, from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm. At the end of the song, even Rong Xu felt that he had entered into some misunderstanding, why he could not satisfy Zhao Kun all the time.

On the other side, Xu Jin and Luo Zhentao got together at some point, and the two whispered: "What do you think of the singing?"

Luo Zhentao defended his own artists as a matter of course: "Excellent!" His tone was sincere, and there was absolutely no lie.

Xu Jin also nodded sharply: "No, I think it's already very good. I've listened to Ling Xiao's version many times, and it's also very nice, but the one sung by your family's Rong Xu has its own merits. In terms of voice and skills, Rong Xu may not be as good. There is a little gap with Ling Xiao, but it is not far behind. You said this time, how many more times will you sing before it ends?"

Hearing this, Luo Zhentao immediately made a bitter face: "Xiao Xu is not a professional singer, how can he compare with Ling Xiao. And even if he is a professional singer, there is only one Ling Xiao in the entire Chinese music scene. If Director Zhao really takes Ling Xiao Treat Xiao Xu according to the same standard... we won't be able to finish recording tonight, right?"

"Black Clouds" is Ling Xiao's masterpiece, and it is also a perfect work evaluated by Zhao Kun.

It would be too embarrassing if Rong Xu had to sing to that level to pass it!

When Rong Xu sang No.90 seven times, a certain man who had been sitting on the sofa finally couldn't sit still.

Qin Cheng got up slowly and walked towards Zhao Kun.At this time, Zhao Kun was proposing some amendments to Rong Xu, Rong Xu nodded in agreement, took another sip of water, and moistened his throat.

The soft music sounded again, and with the elegant prelude, Rong Xu slowly closed his eyes, waiting for the first line of lyrics.Outside the recording room, the man's deep and magnetic voice interrupted the melodious music: "If Rong Xu's condition is not good today, how about recording again tomorrow?"

Zhao Kun looked at Qin Cheng in surprise, and replied, "Is Rong Xu not in good condition?"

The phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, Qin Cheng asked indifferently: "If he is in good condition, will he sing until 97 times?"

Zhao Kun was stunned, and he subconsciously asked, "How do you know it's 97 times?" No normal person would be able to count how many times this was sung.

These words fell into the ears of Luo Zhentao and Xu Jin, and made them quietly turn their heads to look at the man.Qin Cheng closed his eyes calmly, and said casually, "I have a good memory."

Luo Zhentao: "..."

Xu Jin: "..."

Zhao Kun: "..."

...Even if you have this memory, why do you have nothing to remember how many times Rong Xu sang it!

Although he said so, Zhao Kun vaguely sensed that Qin Cheng's attitude seemed a little...unhappy.Zhao Kun didn't understand why the other party was unhappy. However, considering that the person in front of him was one of the shareholders of China Entertainment, and his status and status could not be ignored, he could only explain patiently, "It's about to be recorded."

Without waiting for Qin Cheng to respond to these words, Xu Jin said in surprise: "Hey, is the recording almost finished? Is there any difference between the last dozen times and the previous recording? I didn't hear it at all."

Luo Zhentao was just about to express his agreement, but before he could speak, a clear and melodious singing sounded from the stereo, interrupting his words.

In an instant, Qin Cheng's body froze, and he slowly turned his head to look at the young man on the other side of the glass.On the other hand, Zhao Kun's eyes lit up, he looked at Rong Xu in surprise, and listened carefully to the singing of each note. When he heard the end of the first sentence, he couldn't help but nod his head along with the beat.

"Summer has passed in a circle, waiting for you for another year."

"Black clouds fly across the sky, and when I look back, I meet your smiling face..."

The handsome and elegant young man held the recording microphone with his right hand, and slowly sang this song of first love in a soft and tender voice.There was a slight tremor in his voice, as if there was a youthful innocence in his voice, and it was no longer as perfect and impeccable as before.

But it was precisely this youthful feeling that made Zhao Kun's eyes brighter and brighter.

Qin Cheng stared blankly at the young man on the other side of the glass. When he sang the line "Maybe one day, we can reach the last station of our life", Rong Xu slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes fell into a pair of deep and deep eyes inadvertently. in the eyes.

At first, he was a little surprised, but soon, Rong Xu raised the corners of his lips, slightly curved his beautiful eyebrows, and showed a gentle smile towards Qin Cheng while singing the chorus for the second time.

The smile didn't have too many complicated meanings, but Qin Cheng was startled suddenly by those bright and clear eyes, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.Until Zhao Kun excitedly announced the official end of this recording, the song "Black Clouds" and that gentle and long smile were still replaying in his mind.

"We can go to the last station of life. 』

That night, Qin Cheng and Rong Xu took the same plane and returned to City B.

Originally, Luo Zhentao wanted to invite Zhao Kun to have a meal together to establish a good relationship, but who thought that Zhao Kun would be busy with the music production of the movie "Black Clouds", so he declined his invitation.When sending Rong Xu away from the company, Zhao Kun held his hand and said meaningfully: "Maybe we will have a chance to meet in the future, Rong Xu, you sing very well."

A strange color flashed in his eyes, and Rong Xu nodded with a smile: "Brother Zhao, your production level is also very good."

Zhao Kun laughed and said nothing more.

The silver plane took off from Hongqiao Airport and soon disappeared into the dark night.When the four arrived at the Capital Airport, Luo Zhentao wanted to leave directly, but Xu Jin led them into the VIP passage with a smile, and quietly avoided the flow of people and left the Capital Airport.

It was the first time for Rong Xu to walk through the VIP passage of the Capital Airport. After getting out of the elevator, it was directly the underground parking lot.

Xu Jin took out the car keys, and said carelessly as he walked: "There is no feast that lasts forever, so let's part ways here. Xiao Luo, send Rong Xu well, and be careful of the paparazzi. There are a lot of paparazzi, maybe in the garage, so keep an eye on them."

Hearing this, Luo Zhentao was stunned: "Shall I send Xiaoxu?"

Xu Jin stopped in his tracks, turned to look at Luo Zhentao who was stunned, and instead laughed, asking, "Why, don't you send your artist home, do you still want me to send him home?"

Luo Zhentao hesitated for a moment, before he could speak, he heard Qin Cheng's hoarse voice: "Give me the key."

Xu Jin froze for a moment.

Qin Cheng raised his eyes to look at him, and said calmly: "Give me the key. Get in Luo Zhentao's car and let him take you away. Rong Xu and I will go back together."

Xu Jin: "..."

After a while, Xu Jin couldn't help asking: "You and Rong Xu are going back together, where are you going back?"

Luo Zhentao interrupted involuntarily: "Brother Xu, don't you know that Xiaoxu rented Mr. Qin's house and lived with him?"

Xu Jin: "...!!!" If you don't say anything, who will know!

Xu Jin's face turned blue and white, he looked at Luo Zhentao, Luo Zhentao had an expression of "Qin Cheng is your artist, do you not care about him at all?" He then looked at Rong Xu, this seemingly gentle and friendly boy He kept a soft smile all the time, but you couldn't understand what he was thinking at all.As for a certain man...

Don't even look at it!He didn't even tell his agent about renting out the house. Does this kind of guy still need to look at him?

Xu Jin got into Luo Zhentao's car in a depressed mood. Before the car started, Xu Jin's complaint could be heard through the window glass: "What do you know, I really envy you. Your family is so good to serve you. It’s only been half a year since I debuted, and I’ve filmed so many movies. I’m diligent and conscientious. I’m not like that guy, one movie a year is as good as it gets, and he still gives me bad looks all day long. Now he doesn’t even tell me about renting a house. You say I am suffering, you say I am tired..."

Qin Cheng: "..."

Rong Xu couldn't help laughing out loud, Qin Cheng immediately turned to look at him, the young man stopped smiling instantly, looking calm.

Qin Cheng lowered his eyes and said indifferently: "Xu Jin has always said a lot, so don't take it seriously."

Rong Xu nodded solemnly: "Well, I didn't take it seriously."

Qin Cheng: "...you really don't have to take it seriously."

Rong Xu looked up at him, and replied more seriously: "I really didn't take it seriously."

Qin Cheng: "..."

Qin Cheng's car was a black Mulsanne. It seemed that his agent had exposed his faults in public. Along the way, Qin Cheng kept his face sullen and didn't say a word.

After returning to the apartment, the two took the elevator upstairs together, and Rong Xu said casually, "When will I pay you next month's rent?"

The elevator stopped with a "ding--", Qin Cheng's heart moved slightly, but on the surface he still looked indifferent.He pondered for a moment, and said in the calmest tone possible, "It doesn't matter if you don't pay the rent." His posture was calm, calm and calm.

Rong Xu smiled and said: "I have to give it, how about it, how about I give it to you next week?"

Qin Cheng turned his head and looked at Rong Xu.Looking at this young man with a bright smile, he obviously thought "I really don't need to give it", but when he said it, it became: "In two weeks." As soon as the words landed, Qin Cheng pursed his lips , The fingers hidden in the pocket jumped lightly.

...Why can't I say it out again!

Rong Xu nodded with a smile. He wanted to say, "Then it will take another two weeks", but before he could say anything, a sharp female voice roared in an incredible tone: "Rent?! You want my tolerance?" Rong Xiaogan gave you rent? Qin Cheng, is this how you take care of my family? Rong Rong lives with you, and you dare to ask for rent!!!"

Qin Cheng: "..."

Rong Xu: "..."

The author has something to say: Aunt Qin: My darling is so cute, why are you willing to charge him rent!

Qin Chengcheng: ... (Actually, I also think he is cute...)

Rongrong: In fact, some people are quite cute^_^~
