This is Wang Zhengfei's first time recording in an extremely professional recording studio. Although songs have been recorded in recording studios before, they were all privately owned and were specially used for recording by some music lovers.
level, but although Huayan International is not a first-class record company in China, let alone international, its recording equipment is still quite good. At least the albums it records are excellent.
However, although Wang Zhengfei arrived in Taiwan, he did not start immediately because the recording studio was still used by Huayan International's internal girl group She. The album she released in February was a big seller in Asia, and it has exceeded one million albums all the way. I believe
The sales volume of two million albums is only a matter of time, so Huayan International feels that it is time to strike while the iron is hot and prepare for the next album. The efficiency of an album in half a year can be said to be faster or faster, but the key is that she
The quality of the albums is also pretty good. The key is that your own works are excellent, otherwise the public is not fools, and they are fooled again and again, just like the Hong Kong groups, twins who are now comparable to her, two girls who debuted as singers
, in the end, I couldn’t go on as a singer at all, because nine out of ten records released were just fake. At first, I could get people to buy them just because of my appearance, but later on, dozens of records were sold.
Once all kinds of fake albums are released, except for die-hard fans, no one will pay for them.
But this can’t be blamed on those two girls, it was mainly Emperor Company’s way of making money.
After waiting for a day in Taiwan, it was his turn to record.
When Wang Zhengfei, Gao Yan and his team received the news and rushed to the recording studio, they met three girls coming out of the recording studio chatting and laughing. The recording must have gone smoothly.
Since they were not very familiar with them, Wang Zhengfei and the others only greeted them briefly and then went their separate ways.
Wang Zhengfei and his party walked in, and saw a slightly fat middle-aged man wearing glasses, sitting on a chair. Seeing Wang Zhengfei and his party walk in, he said: "You are here to use the recording studio, I'll take it."
Notification has arrived!”
"I am Yuan Huairen, the producer of this album!" the middle-aged man introduced himself.
"Hello, nice to meet you!" Gao Yan said.
Wang Zhengfei still knows about Yuan Huairen, who is currently the top music producer in the Chinese entertainment industry. He has been an album producer for S.h.e, Dynamic Train, Xu Ruyun, Zheng Xiuwen, Tao Jingying, Liu Ruoying, etc. all year round.
In the record production industry chain, the music producer plays a very important role. His tasks include controlling the schedule of recording projects, training and guiding new singers, organizing and scheduling production budgets and resources, supervising the recording process, and mixing
And post-mastering work.
Just like the director of a TV series, due to the marketization and industrialization of music in recent years, the requirements for music producers have gradually become more stringent. In addition to being able to produce good enough music, they must also have a keen insight into market changes.
It has the power to guide the songwriters, arrangers, recording engineers, and mixers of the record, and adjust the changes of the record according to the changes in the market to adapt to the needs of the market.
It can be said to be a very important role. Wang Zhengfei also served as the producer of his own songs before. He was responsible for his later marriage, recording, etc. He also learned a lot through his stumbles, even though he was just a newbie.
, but there is still no problem in dealing with some online songs. However, after all, he has no experience in being a producer of an entire album. There are still many differences between being a producer of an entire album and being a producer of a song. But among them
There is still something in common, so Wang Zhengfei is ready to be his own producer this time.
Of course, this is also a helpless move, because Xingchen's foundation in the entertainment industry is too shallow, let alone in the record industry, and he basically has no connections at all. It is difficult to find any famous producers. Instead of finding
For those producers who are not well-known and not very powerful, it would be better to let Wang Zhengfei produce it himself. That would be better and they can also accumulate experience.
After this part is ready, Wang Zhengfei will prepare to record. Although four of the eight songs in this album have already become popular on the Internet, they will be recorded again this time. With the help of professional equipment
time, re-record.
The first song recorded is the title song "If You Become the Wind". This time "If You Become the Wind" is divided into two versions: male solo and male and female duet. They are the first and second hits respectively. The first hit was recorded first.
Wang Zhengfei's solo version of "If You Become the Wind".
The music was played first to let Wang Zhengfei get familiar with it, and when he was about to start singing, Yuan Huairen who was standing next to him suddenly stepped forward and said, "Excuse me if I'm sorry!"
Wang Zhengfei walked out of the recording studio and asked curiously: "Is there something wrong?"
"I see you haven't found a producer yet. Do you plan to be the producer yourself?" Yuan Huairen was about to leave, but when he saw that Wang Zhengfei didn't have a producer, he asked.
"Yeah, you can't find any good producers now!" Wang Zhengfei said it without hiding anything.
Yuan Huairen thought about it and said: "I have heard your songs on the Internet before. You are very talented. If you don't mind, I would like to recommend myself to be your producer. What do you think?"
Yuan Huairen himself admires Wang Zhengfei very much. He has also heard Wang Zhengfei's songs and thinks he is very talented. There are no announcements on his hands. He is still in the promotion period of the album, and the recording work of the next album is only
It went on intermittently, so now Yuan Huairen is quite free. After listening to "You Ruo Cheng Feng", there was an unconscious impulse in his heart that prompted him to come forward and recommend himself.
Wang Zhengfei was stunned by Yuan Huairen's words. He had no idea that Yuan Huairen would recommend himself. You must know that good producers are extremely scarce nowadays. A good producer's exaggeration can determine the success or failure of a record, and
Yuan Huairen is undoubtedly the top music producer in China, and he is also very talented in composing. His representative works "Conquest" and "Awake from the Dream" are still talked about today.
Such a person recommended himself to him, and he had a feeling that he had heard wrongly. However, Wang Zhengfei was stunned, but Gao Yan next to him was not stunned. He immediately stepped forward and said: "It is a great honor to have Mr. Yuan join us!"
Although it would cost a lot to get Yuan Huairen to join, the problem is that nowadays, when producers are scarce, even if you have money, you cannot hire a gold medal producer of Yuan Huairen's level to join. You can also get closer to Yuan Huairen in the future.
Star Entertainment does not necessarily have only Wang Zhengfei as an artist, nor does it necessarily mean that it will not be involved in the record industry. When the time comes, it will be able to meet a gold medal producer of Yuan Huairen's level and break into that circle through Yuan Huairen. It will undoubtedly be a matter of killing two birds with one stone.
When Wang Zhengfei saw that Gao Yan had already agreed on his behalf, he naturally had no objection. Anyway, Gao Yan's decision was very correct. He was just in a daze just now, otherwise he would have made the same choice as Gao Yan. He was not looking at it.
I can't understand the powerful relationship between this.
With the addition of Yuan Huairen, a veteran super producer, the recording work of Wang Zhengfei's new album immediately got on the right track. Originally, Wang Zhengfei left many loopholes when he was a producer, but under Yuan Huairen's command, the recording work of Wang Zhengfei's new album was immediately on the right track.
Once it was settled, Wang Zhengfei had never served as an album producer before. He had only heard about many processes and so on, but there were still many problems in actual implementation. However, Yuan Huairen was different. His experience was very
Rich.
With Yuan Huairen's help, Wang Zhengfei can focus more on recording, and he can also learn some techniques of album production from Yuan Huairen. With Yuan Huairen's guidance, Wang Zhengfei's level has improved three times a day, and he has mastered the basics of album production in just a few days.
Now that I have an understanding of the process of making an album, there is no problem for Wang Zhengfei to make an album. However, compared to a veteran like Yuan Huairen, who has experienced many battles, he is still far behind. He is not as good as him.
A smooth feeling, but Wang Zhengfei believes that as long as time accumulates, his progress will be rapid. These are experiences that cannot be bought with money. Wang Zhengfei knows this very well, so he works hard to learn these skills from Yuan Huairen.
.
Yuan Huairen saw that Wang Zhengfei was willing to learn, so he didn't think much about it. These things were not particularly confidential. If anyone was willing to learn, he would just teach him. Moreover, Wang Zhengfei did seem to have a lot of talent in this area and was making rapid progress.
, so Yuan Huairen teaches with more enthusiasm.
However, although Yuan Huairen is willing to teach Wang Zhengfei, he is very strict about the quality of the recording. He often re-records it over and over again, recording from morning to night. Wang Zhengfei himself is fine, at least he can hold on, but Dan Vo is a little unable to hold on.
, although she only had three songs this time, it was still very hard, and she went through it over and over again.
Under Yuan Huairen's strict control, all the recordings were originally planned to be completed in three to four days. It took until the tenth day to finally complete the recording of all the songs. However, although it was delayed for several days, Wang Zhengfei did not
I feel that there is nothing disappointing, but I am quite happy. I spent a few days in exchange for reliable quality. This is very right and there is nothing wrong with it.
With the end of the recording, the name of the album was finally decided, taking the names of the two title songs "If You Become the Wind" as the album title.
