debut [entertainment]

When it comes to rock and roll, you have to mention another word-band.

Could it be that it's time for Kim Yoo-hee to find a drummer, bassist or something?

In fact, it is not entirely true. After all, no one said that rock music must be interpreted by a band of several people, and all the instruments needed in rock music, Kim Yoo-hee can basically come up with everything.

Therefore, at least in the album production stage, Kim Yoo Hee can take care of it all by himself.

The process of making music is a bit boring to outsiders. I spend all day in the studio and tinker until late at night. If I don’t have time to go home, I just deal with it here for the night. I wake up the next day and go back to take a shower and start to continue.

But Jin Youxi enjoyed it very much, and even wrote a lot of songs in a row. Together with a new music producer who was "picked out" selected by his manager, he picked out 5 songs.

Co-authoring the previous 7 songs, the framework of the first album has basically come out.

The theme is still "dream", interspersed with some friendship, family love and love felt when occasionally stopping during the journey of chasing dreams, which makes the whole story line more full.

"So, do you have any ideas for an album title?" Ian asked with a yawn.

Ian Woodson is the newcomer in the field of music production sent to her by her agent, and she is also one of the "left behind".

But after several contacts with Jin Youxi, she felt that Ian might be the forgotten pearl among them.

Although his experience is far inferior to those senior music producers in the industry, his sense of music is very similar to that of Kim Yoo Hee. Simply put, he is in perfect harmony with her.

Both of them graduated from Berkeley, and both dropped out of Berkeley.Speaking of which, Ian can still be regarded as Jin Youxi's senior, and he is also very destined.

As a newcomer, Ian is naturally not too strong in terms of music production.In some disputes with Kim Yoo-hee, it was basically decided by the two people through "peaceful discussions".

"The title of the album, I don't have a clue yet, what about you?" Jin Youxi also yawned, and leaned lazily on the sofa.

They have been in this studio for a week, and almost all the songs that can be recorded have been recorded. At present, only the album name is left.

The title of many singers’ albums is consistent with the title of the main single in the album, but the title single of Kim Yoo-hee’s first album is currently selected as "Thunder (Lightning)", and the title of the album is also "Lightning". It feels a little weird and doesn't fit the theme very well.

But if the theme of "chasing dreams" is used as the title of the album, it would be too straightforward.

"I couldn't think of anything good either." Ian shook his head, looked at her looking a little tired, and teased, "If you really can't think of anything, why not just use "MASKCROW"."

This is actually not impossible, and many singers have used their own names as the title of their albums.

But her stage name means a masked crow...

Jin Youxi laughed.

Ian also smiled, stood up and stretched his waist, and walked towards the curtains: "It rained all night, and the car just washed is for nothing."

In order to keep it secret, they used to close the curtains of the studio before making an album. If you don't check the time, there is always a feeling that day and night are indistinguishable.

"It doesn't matter if you don't wash your car." Jin Youxi shook his head, "Every time I ride in your car, I feel that the car is about to be scrapped. I'm really risking my life for a ride."

"You don't learn to drive by yourself, blame me?" Ian rolled his eyes.

"Okay, then I will ride my bicycle tomorrow." Jin Youxi pouted.

As soon as the words were finished, Ian's men forcefully opened the dark and airtight curtain with a swipe.

The dazzling sunlight came in from the window, and Jin Youxi couldn't help squinting his eyes.

"Huh? Is it raining?"

Ian's voice came, with some joy, "There are rainbows!"

rainbow?

Jin Youxi froze for a moment, then looked out of the window, and a very clear rainbow appeared in the distance near the "HOLLYWOOD" sign not far away.

To be honest, it is not uncommon to see a rainbow in this place in Los Angeles.

But during this period of time, except for making music in the airtight studio every day, Jin Youxi, who basically didn't pay attention to the surrounding scenery, was inexplicably lost and stared in that direction for a long time.

There is an old saying in Huaguo: How can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain.

Perhaps this sentence is a bit chicken soup, but at this moment, Jin Youxi's mood is exactly the same.

Isn't her current experience a true portrayal of this sentence?

How could she re-release "Cool Girl" for her own album if she hadn't lived through that past?

The rainbow, like the first step in the realization of her dream, opened the window for her future.

"Rainbow," she said.

Ian nodded: "Yes, this rainbow is really beautiful."

Kim Yoo Hee stepped forward and stood beside him, "I mean the title of the album, "Rainbow"."

Hearing this, Ian froze for a moment, said the word in his mouth, and nodded thoughtfully.

"it is good."

After recording the last song, Kim Yoo Hee came out of the studio and took a deep breath.

"Woohoo! The air is so nice outside."

Who said it wasn't, Ian, who came out right after her, opened his hands and took a deep breath, the two of them seemed to be locked in a hole in the dark for a week, and Wuhu couldn't help it when they came out stand up.

Fortunately, it was early in the morning at this time, and apart from the crazy-looking eyes from the morning joggers, it didn't cause too much scolding.

"The recording is finally finished." Ian sighed, "I don't know when your album is released, can you let me change to a car?"

Jin Youxi patted him, "Just a car sent you away? Anyway, think about changing the suite!"

Ian just smiled, turned his head to look at her, and suddenly his tone became serious: "Thank you."

"Thank me for what?" Jin Youxi shrugged, "You have to thank my manager, he picked you to help me make the album."

"That's true, I took back the 'thank you' just now." Ian said with a smile.

"Hey!" Jin Youxi looked at him pretending to be annoyed.

Among so many remaining music producers who were selected, Dawson did not choose those mature music producers who already had masterpieces, but chose Ian to come over. I have to say that his vision as a senior manager is really unique.

This "Rainbow" album can be produced so quickly, Ian is at least half of the credit.

Compared with Jin Youxi, Ian's arrangement ability is obviously more outstanding. One of them is responsible for composing lyrics and music, and the other concentrates on arranging. Compared with when Jin Youxi was working on an album by himself, the efficiency is at least twice as fast.

And if Ian's music concept is different from Kim Youxi's, the two will definitely have countless disputes, and even break up unhappy.

But Mr. Dawson is so good at picking people. The two of them work together like partners who have worked together for several years, and their tacit understanding is almost comparable to that of twins.

Every time Kim Yoo-hee puts forward a hazy idea, Ian can extract the effect she really wants to achieve from her hazy idea, and perfectly embodies this effect in the song.

This is not a confidant, what is a confidant?

According to the ancient Chinese saying, if Jin Youxi is Boya, then Ian is Ziqi.

After the album was produced, Republic Records would be the one to discuss the next issue of release. Kim Youxi could have been lazy and rested for a few days, but news of Uncle Kyle soon came from his mother.

The audition for the heroine of "Thirteen Reasons Why" was scheduled for these few days.

Although Jin Youxi has been busy with singles and albums during this period of time, she has not forgotten this audition under the hints and reminders from her mother from time to time, and now it is time to test the results.

To be honest, Jin Youxi was very uncertain.

Especially when she saw the actresses participating in the audition queuing up from the door all the way to the entire lobby on the second floor, she felt even more guilty.

This team must have at least... a hundred people, right?

Everyone was given a piece of A4 paper with some dialogue lines between the heroine and other characters.

Among the hundreds of actresses, almost everyone was looking down at the lines, and because of the competition, there were very few communicating with each other.

However, Jin Youxi scanned briefly, but couldn't find any familiar faces.

It seems that everyone is almost new.

It can also be seen from here how many people come to Hollywood from all over the world to be an actor every year.

Just a female lead in a Netflix web drama with little investment, this day's audition has attracted hundreds of unknown actresses to participate. If it is a well-known TV series or movie...it is unimaginable.

While Jin Youxi was observing other people, these actresses who were already sitting and waiting to be called were also silently observing her.

Most of those who can come to Hollywood are quite confident in their looks or acting skills.

Just here, in terms of appearance alone, there are also many beauties in the American sweetheart style, the noble and glamorous style, and the European-style style. After some dressing up, each has its own characteristics, and the beauty has become a landscape.

But there is always a kind of person who is particularly beautiful, even overly beautiful.

Like Kim Yoo Hee.

Not to mention that she is tall, this face is so beautiful that it has a 360-degree view without any dead ends, and it is impossible to pick out any faults from anywhere.

With such a face, even if her acting skills are decent, the casting directors in charge of the audition would not be able to make a decision immediately.

As competitors, these actresses frantically sounded the alarm in their hearts the first time Kim Yoo-hee walked in.

If only she was a wooden beauty.

they thought.
