Chapter 213 Rapid Recording
"Menjie, you're doing well. It's only been a little over a month. I didn't expect your singing skills to have improved so much!"
At night, in the recording studio owned by Huayi Brothers in Yanjing, Men Jie was recording songs continuously with the help of Li Tong and other professionals. Finally, he finished the whole day's work. Li Tong said with surprise.
Two months ago, Li Tong admitted that Menjie's singing skills were definitely among the best among most newcomers who had only debuted for a year, and were comparable to the top second-tier singers. In Li Tong's case,
It seems that Menjie's singing skills will be able to reach the level of a first-line singer given time, at most two years.
Of course, Li Tong is also confused. In his opinion, Menjie's singing skills are still far behind those of first-line singers. It is absolutely impossible to break through in a short time. He also wonders why Menjie has been reluctant to record.
Title song, released new album.
In the end, Li Tong gave herself a reason, that is, the first title song of Menjie's new album had not been completely completed, so she did not start recording.
Li Tong never imagined that Menjie's goal was to break through his singing skills and reach the level of a first-line singer in a short period of time, and then record the title song of the new album.
After finishing a day's hard work, Li Tong looked at Men Jie with a smile on his face and praised softly. He also looked at Men Jie with a slightly strange look.
"You are a newcomer who has only debuted for a year. Not only has he made great achievements in film and television, he has reached the level of a first-line movie star. I didn't expect that your singing skills have improved so quickly. You are only twenty years old and you already have the reputation of a first-line singer.
It’s level!”
Shaking his head slightly and looking at Men Jie, Li Tong felt as if he was looking at a monster rather than an ordinary newcomer in the entertainment industry.
"I made my debut when I was almost nineteen years old. Strictly speaking, it took about 15 months to reach the level of a first-line singer and movie star, and I also have many good works. Whether it is worth or popularity,
The number of people who have reached this level of strength!"
"It takes a little more than a year to reach the level of a first-tier singer or movie star. If nothing else happens, it will probably take about three to five years, or even less time, to become a top singer or movie star. If
If you can produce a few more excellent works, and with your popularity in the film and music circles, it is estimated that by then, your popularity will not be any worse than those of those king-level and movie-king-level stars!"
Thinking in his heart, Li Tong had cooperated with Menjie many times, and Li Tong did not taboo anything at all, and said bluntly to Menjie.
"Teacher Li is ridiculously complimentary. I also know that not only in the music industry but also in the film industry, I am a newcomer who has just debuted for a year. I still have many shortcomings. I am not a big star!"
Menjie grinned and looked very humble, "Even if I can become a king or movie king in the future, I am not yet!"
"Yes, at such a young age, you can still be so humble when you are very popular. Even if there are any setbacks in your stardom in the future, I will definitely not defeat you. As long as you persist, you will definitely be...
The future is bright!”
As he said that, Li Tong seemed to have thought of something, curled his lips, and said with some displeasure, "In the many years I have been working in music, I have seen too many newcomers who suddenly became popular and became arrogant and regarded themselves as the king of superstars.
Very annoying. Usually, most people like this will encounter setbacks in the future and begin to become depressed, and few of them can truly become famous!"
Hearing this, Menjie only nodded slightly, but in his heart, Menjie did not agree with Li Tong's words.
In Menjie's heart, with the Heavenly King System, his stardom will be extremely bright in the future. There will definitely be no setbacks. Even if there are any, it will not take three to five days to completely resolve them!
Even at this moment, Menjie loses the help of the King System. Although there is no guarantee that he will become a world-class star in the future, Menjie believes that with several special acting temperaments and singing skills
Emotionally, I can easily prosper in the entertainment industry and have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life.
No matter what, Menjie believes in himself and will not encounter any setbacks!
However, Menjie still has to maintain proper humility when in front of others.
"It can be seen from today's recording that your singing skills have been greatly improved. In terms of condition, after returning from your trip to India, it has never been better!"
After chatting for a while, Li Tong talked about Men Jie's work today.
"Although you have practiced the two songs "Tick Tock" and "Big City Little Love" countless times some time ago, but I didn't expect that you would have completed the recording in just one afternoon when you started recording this afternoon.
Recording of two songs!”
This afternoon, contrary to the expectations of Men Jie, Li Tong and others, the title song, which was originally the most time-consuming and should be picky and strive for the best effect, was recorded in just one afternoon.
.
And the two recorded title songs, both in Menjie's opinion and in Li Tong's ears, are the highest quality works. There is no need to re-record them and they can be made into finished products.
Some time ago, when they were filming "Myth" in China, after Menjie and Cai Yan finished filming the MV for "Big City, Little Love", the Huayi brothers directly spent money to find a small team for Menjie to help save trouble.
Menjie filmed the MVs for the other two title songs.
The MV of "Big City, Little Love" mainly tells the story of Menjie's secret love for a beautiful woman who is good at singing and dancing, and gradually gets together with her. It features Cai Yan's dance moves to attract the attention of the audience. It is considered to be quite complicated.
The MV for the other two songs seems much simpler.
Menjie didn't even act in the MV for "Tick Tock". If someone like Cai Yan uses the MV as a secret weapon to increase record sales, she might care about it, but for Menjie, a male singer who sings love songs,
explain……
No matter how good the MV is, it is absolutely limited and cannot bring much help to the sales of the record. Therefore, when it comes to MVs, Menjie mostly just "make do" and does not invest much energy.
The MV of "Tick Tock" is directly from the movie "Kung Fu". After all, the song "Tick Tock" at this time has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people with the popularity of the popular movie "Kung Fu". Everyone knows that this song
The song is the only song in "Kung Fu".
Since it has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Menjie is not going to make any subversion, and just use some scenes from "Kung Fu" to make the MV.
And the MV for the last title song...
To be honest, it was a bit embarrassing and felt like I was fooling people!
In Menjie's inventory at this time, there is also a "Top Song Redemption Coupon" that the system awarded to Menjie after the release of his first album. In other words, Menjie has not yet selected the first title song of the new album.
exchange!
Externally, Menjie is naturally Xuancheng. This song has not been completely written yet. What can be determined in advance is that the song itself should not be much different from "Fairy Tale" in essence. It is a love song.
, and it is a tender love song, mainly describing the feelings between two people.
There is no vigorous love, no painful parting, no painful and entangled choices...
Yes, it's just two people telling each other about their love for each other.
Although no clear lyrics and music were given, Huayi Brothers, as one of the top entertainment companies in mainland China with many masters, actually created a new song MV for Menjie...
The MV itself is not complicated, it can even be said to be very simple. It only requires Menjie to wear a white shirt, suit, and trousers, and stand there quietly singing on a stage as white as jade.
Of course, in the full version of the MV, in addition to Menjie singing, there are also two actors, a man and a woman, performing simple rivalry scenes, but there is not even a trace of intersection between Menjie and these two people.
, so this plot...
As of now, Menjie has not seen this plot, and he does not know who the actors and actresses he collaborated with in filming the MV are. The shooting was completely organized by the Huayi Brothers. Menjie only shot a few sets of shots and then left it alone.
Normally, as the male and female protagonists in a singer's own MV, if a large company organizes the shooting, they will try their best to include the newcomers that their company is planning to release, which can be said to take some advantage of the star itself.
Usually, the singers who shoot the MV are willing to find the actors and actresses on their own. In addition to selling a favor, they can also ensure that the MV will not be too bad, feel confident, and may even gain some unexpected benefits.
'reward'!
Menjie was originally planning to do this and look for partners in person, not wanting the company to take advantage of Menjie in vain.
But in the end, Zhao Dong found Men Jie and expressed his thoughts.
Some time ago, because of the termination of the film and television contract with Huayi Brothers, he had offended the company's upper management. Although the matter has passed, it is still a bit unsightly. If Menjie is willing to give up the two small roles now, although
Not much, but you can still express your attitude to the company.
After all, Menjie will still be working for the Huayi Brothers in the next three years, and there are still three records to be released, so it would be beneficial to have a better relationship with the company's upper management.
In this way, Menjie directly handed over all the filming work of the MV to the company and ignored it himself.
And now...
In Menjie's mind, the most important task before him is to return home and redeem the top song from the King System as the first title song of the new album!
