"And I think..."

"Junior Brother Xiao, the 0.50% increase you said is a bit conservative! Because my original plan was for the singers to share 10%, 70% for you, and 20% for the crew."

"Now that the singer is looking for new people within the company, it is equivalent to not giving the singer a share, so of course this share should be given to you!"

"How about eighty-two points, Junior Brother Xiao?"

Seeing Qian Zhen staring at him with a smile, Xiao Ning was stunned for a moment, and then felt a warmth in his heart.

"Senior Brother Qian loves to show off."

"But he is indeed a good man!"

"Last time I was asked to be a guest, I was given 100,000 yuan and then directly increased to 200,000 yuan. This time I was given more than 2 million yuan, and I was even offered to increase my share!"

Looking at Qian Zhen's body with "golden light", Xiao Ning smiled and nodded: "Then it's settled."

The next hour or so.

Qian Zhen first arranged for someone to modify the contract, and then Xiao Ning confirmed that it was signed correctly. After that, Qian Zhen discussed the details of the theme song with Xiao Ning and several members of the crew.

It’s afternoon soon.

Just after 1:30, Qian Zhen went to the company's recording studio with Xiao Ning and others.

Although this movie has little to do with Hummingbird, with Qian Zhen's status in the company, there is still no problem in borrowing the recording studio and the sound engineer to use it.

As early as the morning, Qian Zhen had already told his manager Wu Feng about the audition in the afternoon.

So when they arrived at the recording studio, there were already many people standing on both sides of the corridor outside.

Except for a few male staff members, all the people standing outside were female. Qian Zhen had gone to say hello in advance and inform the female singers who were coming to audition today.

Xiao Ning was stunned by such a scene.

I know, I know these are new female singers from the past two years who came here to audition.

If you don’t know, you might think this is a place where new tea is launched.

In the recording studio.

Qian Zhen is talking to Xiao Ning.

"After finalizing this with you online the day before yesterday, I asked Wu Feng to find more suitable female singers. This is just one of them. Others were delayed due to other things and will not be able to make it today."

"How about we take a look at this batch first? If there are any that we are particularly satisfied with, we will make a decision. If not, we will change the batch tomorrow."

"Junior Brother Xiao, what do you think?"

In fact, this is not the first time Xiao Ning has experienced a similar situation.

He has experienced situations like this where multiple people audition for a song before.

However, he used to be a contestant who came to audition, but now he has become a referee.

Xiao Ning, who was filled with emotion, nodded to Qian Zhen, and then said: "Okay, let's get started."

Qian Zhen turned to look at Wu Feng aside: "Old Wu, go and call Number One in."

Wu Feng was stunned: "No. 1? Which No. 1? I don't have a number! Brother Zhen, we are auditioning now, not washing feet..."

Qian Zhen rolled his eyes and said, "Didn't I ask them to line up before? The one at the front is number one! What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up, don't keep me and Junior Brother Xiao waiting!"

Soon, the "No. 1" singer entered the recording studio.

"Hello Brother Zhen, hello Teacher Xiao, I am..."

This girl has a ponytail and speaks in a bright voice.

This made Xiao Ning look forward to the other party's performance in the next audition.

But he soon became disappointed.

It can be seen that this girl has really worked hard before coming to the audition, and she still has an understanding of pronunciation, melody, pitch, etc.

But just this singing voice... and speaking feel like they are two completely different people.

The "brightness" when speaking becomes "white" when singing.

It’s not that singing with a white voice is not good, and it’s not that there aren’t people who can sing well.

But even if you sing beautifully, you still have a white voice.

This kind of timbre is difficult to remember, which is the key.

Before the girl finished singing inside, Xiao Ning whispered to Qian Zhen: "Brother Qian, the recognition of this girl's timbre is too low..."

Qian Zhen also thought so and understood, but both of them tacitly waited for the girl inside to finish singing before letting the next girl into the room.

Girl No. 2 is wearing a JK uniform, white socks, and a short skirt that just reaches her knees.

To be honest, such dressing up is still rare in Hummingbird Entertainment. After all, although Hummingbird Entertainment has an artist girl group, Xiao Ning has never heard of such a JK girl group.

Seemingly seeing what Xiao Ning was wondering about, Qian Zhen whispered from the side: "She came back from studying abroad and was just signed by Hummingbird in the first half of this year. She was a singing idol in Neon Country before. I heard Wu Feng said it was pretty good.

."

Soon, Miss JK’s audition began.

As soon as it started, Xiao Ning made a cross for the other party in her heart.

It’s not that he hates JK.

It's the singing style of this JK girl that he doesn't quite accept.

Although the theme of "Miss You 365 Days" is longing, in fact the entire melody of this song has ups and downs, and can even be called passionate.

However, Miss JK’s interpretation of this song is too cute to use a good word, but too cute to use a bad word.

At least to Xiao Ning's ears, this girl's throat seemed to be blocked by some kind of stick.

It’s very uncomfortable.

After listening patiently with Qian Zhen and asking Miss JK to leave, Xiao Ning couldn't help but ask: "Senior Brother Qian, I really don't know much about female singers in our company, but I have auditioned before, and with

The buddies I compete with are really better than the other, why are these girls..."

Xiao Ning didn't finish his words, but Qian Zhen understood what he meant.

"Actually, the first one is okay. It's just that Neon returned from studying abroad. She is really not suitable to be a singer. She should be more suitable to start a live broadcast and get a leather cover or something to sing. That will definitely be more promising than being a singer."

"Junior brother Xiao, don't worry, let's take another look. If the company doesn't find a suitable one, I will contact the female singers outside. Anyway, I am the sponsor of this movie and it has nothing to do with the company. The company has no control over me."

The two then listened to the next contestant's audition.

Compared with the two girls at the beginning, the third one is much better.

The voice recognition is improved and the range is good, but overall Xiao Ning is still not satisfied.

This singer pursues technical perfection too much and ignores the emotional expression of the song itself.

For a song with a lyrical style, pursuing too much technique will only make people feel that the singing method is "greasy".

After Xiao Ning put forward his opinion, the girl sang it a second time.

Maybe she was nervous or she didn't do enough preparations. Her second time was indeed not as "greasy", but she was still trembling.

When I sang the second chorus, "Thinking of you for 365 days, reading every word of comfort you wrote...", the pitch started to shake.

The next few singers, like the third one, are much better, but without exception they all have some problems.

Although some of them were very good in Qian Zhen's opinion, Xiao Ning was still not satisfied.

Qian Zhen has never heard the original song, but Xiao Ning has.

Xiao Ning does not require people to sing to the height of the original singer. He just wants to be as close as possible to the original singer. It is enough to have a few souls, and the rest can be left to millions of tuners.

But even with this request, after listening to these people's auditions, he found it difficult to satisfy.

It's also strange that the song "365 Days of Missing You" has too high requirements for singers.

If these people were allowed to sing other songs, they would probably perform very well.

But this song is too difficult.

Not only is it difficult for male voices, but it is also difficult for female voices.

Four o'clock in the afternoon.

Most of the people who auditioned have left.

Xiao Ning was thinking about whether to give up the idea of ​​finding a new singer.

Just when he was thinking about discussing with Qian Zhen, returning his 10% share to the crew, and then asking the crew to find a second-tier singer to sing.

A surprise appeared.

I just finished listening to the first verse and chorus of the next girl.

Xiao Ning made the decision directly!

"This girl is very suitable!"
Chapter completed!
