Chapter Eleven Do you want to participate in 'The Voice of All People'?
On Huabo, the popularity of reposts about Chen Ming began to slow down and stabilize, and finally it steadily broke into the top 400 reposts and remained unchanged.
The heat has stabilized and it’s unlikely it will rise again!
But there are still many people from across the country leaving messages on Li Min’s Huabo:
"Brother Chen is so wilted!"
“It’s just two songs and it’s all drained.”
"I would call him short and sharp!"
...
There are all kinds of comments, but most people think that Chen Ming has probably lost inspiration because he has been quiet for so long.
At this moment, Li Min retweeted a Huabo post and added the "Come on" emoticon.
Looking carefully, the forwarding ID is: I am Chen Ming.
Huabo's content only shared two songs, and the copy above said: There will be three more songs tomorrow.
for a moment,
Everyone exploded.
The Huabo who can be forwarded by Li Min must be Chen Ming himself.
Chen Ming's ID was very straightforward, without any fancy affixes, simple and clear, but no one believed that this was Chen Ming before.
"Go quickly, go quickly."
"There's something going on!"
"Brother Chen is here!!"
For a time, countless people flocked to Chen Ming's Huabo to listen to the song and leave messages.
There are many cover versions on the Internet, but if you listen carefully, the one who really likes it is Chen Ming himself.
Especially for the song "Contentment", Chen Ming did not choose to sing solo, but invited Su Rou to sing a duet, which suddenly sublimated the whole song into the tone of a woman singing in harmony with a man.
Su Rou's professional singing skills and rich and profound emotional expressions are simply a feast for the eardrums!
“It’s amazing!”
"Who is this female voice?! She can actually suppress Brother Chen firmly."
"The two of them work well together, there is no one who is overpowering the other."
"Aren't we listening to music? Why are we suddenly discussing postures?"
The conversation gradually went off the rails, but it was just a joke.
This is not the most important thing. What is even more crucial is that Chen Ming himself admitted: There will be three more songs tomorrow.
What does it mean?
This means to rise in one fell swoop!!
In just one night, Chen Ming's Huabo fans exceeded 100,000, and they are still growing.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if Chen Ming does not release new songs in the future, the income from these two songs will still be more than the money he earns from singing in bars now.
At the same time, the search rankings on Wangyiyun are also changing crazily.
The search frequency of the two terms "contentment" and "lonely patient" suddenly broke into the top 20!
Some people who didn't know why thought the singer had released a new song.
When I look at it again, it’s completely a newcomer’s work!
Lyricist: Chen Ming
Composer: Chen Ming
Arranger: Chen Ming
Guitar: Chen Ming Electronic keyboard: Su Rou
Singer: Chen Ming Su Rou
The entire song is entirely Chen Ming's original work, and the word "Chen Ming" is so eye-catching that people can't help but be curious.
Who is this person?
That night, many people were too excited to fall asleep.
Also not asleep was Xiao Xuan’s manager, Sister Qing!
She originally planned to prepare the contract and go to Chen Ming, but she didn't expect that the contract matter was stuck with the music director and would not approve it.
For this matter, Sister Qing also went to the music director to explain the situation.
But the attitude there is also very firm: a newcomer is not worth a C-level contract!
Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with that.
After all, normal newcomers who join the company start as trainees, and there is no precedent for signing a contract as soon as they come up.
This is a break from the norm!
But can Sister Qing wait?
Can't wait!
She knew very well how important Chen Ming was to Xiao Xuan. Letting Chen Ming compose music and lyrics and Xiao Xuan sing would definitely help Xiao Xuan reach a higher level.
As Xiao Xuan's agent, she is very likely to become a gold medal agent in one fell swoop!
Because of this, Sister Qing thought of breaking the rules once and directly giving her a C-level contract.
Ever since, the two sides have been in a stalemate, which has dragged on until now.
In the evening, Sister Qing walked towards the room while wiping her hair. Being a celebrity agent is very hard, and you have to be busy with all kinds of things. Basically, you can't go to bed until midnight.
Following custom, Sister Qing clicked on Huabo.
Which celebrity is on the hot search list again?
Who and who participated in what activities/variety shows, etc.?
This news is also a reference for Xiao Xuan. For example, the auditions for "The Voice" are about to begin recently.
Now we are looking for professional judges to form a PK team. This is a brand new music variety show, and the industry has high expectations for it!
It would definitely be a great thing if Xiao Xuan could be a judge.
Sister Qing casually clicked a few times, and she was immediately stunned!
problem occurs!
Something big happened!!!
In a panic, Sister Qing dialed Xiao Xuan's phone: "Xuanxuan, Huabo! Huabo!!"
Xiao Xuan had already fallen asleep and was suddenly woken up by the ringing of the phone. She mumbled with some dissatisfaction: "Sister Qing, I'm already asleep."
"Stay asleep..."
Sister Qing almost cursed, but she held it back.
Aware of Sister Qing's emotions, Xiao Xuan also sobered up a bit. When she clicked on the homepage of Huabo, the ID "I am Chen Ming" appeared.
In an instant, Xiao Xuan was completely awake.
He sang!
And there are two songs in one release, and three more songs are prepared for tomorrow.
Five original songs!!
How perverted is this guy...
"Sister Qing, didn't I ask you to get the contract done a few days ago? Is it done?"
Xiao Xuan asked hurriedly.
Sister Qing smiled bitterly: "It's not done. If Lao Zheng doesn't approve it, there's nothing I can do about it."
Zheng Rong, music director of Xingyu Entertainment.
Xiao Xuan was anxious: "Tell him, it's what I mean!"
"I told you, it's useless."
"Old Zheng said that the headquarters plans to promote Sun Qingxuan, and all resources must be given to that side first, while we should let it go."
"Fart!"
Xiao Xuan couldn't hold it back and cursed.
After all, she is a little queen who has been famous for a long time. When has she ever been so angry?!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Xuanxuan, what happened in the middle of the night?"
It was Xiao's mother's voice.
Xiao Xuan hurriedly covered her phone and replied loudly: "Mom, it's okay, I just made a call. You go to bed first."
Then, Xiao Xuan picked up her phone again: "Sister Qing, I will go to the company tomorrow, please wait for me early."
After saying that, he hung up directly!
It was obvious that Xiao Xuan was also anxious.
Sun Qingxuan is a human being, and she is also a human being. Why should the resources be given away?
Lying on the bed, Xiao Xuan had insomnia...
In fact, many people lost sleep that night!
Chen Ming's popularity has increased again, and he has directly entered the top 500 of the popularity rankings.
There are many rankings on Huabo. The popularity ranking is the main list, and the forwarding ranking is just a category below the popularity ranking. Generally speaking, the popularity ranking is more valuable!
This also means that Chen Ming is really starting to become popular.
As the person involved, Chen Ming went to bed early!
After all, there are three songs to be recorded the next day, so keep energetic and the recording effect will be better.
The next morning,
Chen Ming returned to the routine of his previous life, jogging for half an hour every morning, taking a hot bath when he came back, and buying some vegetables.
Cooking your own food is definitely cheaper than buying it from outside.
After a simple breakfast, Chen Ming did not rush to record songs, but went to the mall first and bought himself some clothes.
After changing into clean and tidy clothes, Chen Ming went out and went straight to Mu Qingyun's house.
There is no violin in the bar, so Chen Ming needs to borrow one.
Mu Qingyun didn't seem to have slept well. When she opened the door, she still looked sleepy. Especially her hair was a little messy, and she looked more like a housewife.
"Sister Yun, let me borrow the violin."
Chen Ming didn't go in so he could change his shoes.
Mu Qingyun rubbed his hair again and yawned: "Wait a moment."
And this time, half an hour has passed.
Half an hour later, Mu Qingyun changed her clothes and put a cute little red hat on her head: "Let's go, I'll go to the bar with you."
"ah?!"
Chen Ming didn't react.
"I also informed Su Rou that the three of us will meet at the bar."
Chen Ming followed Mu Qingyun blankly, just recording songs, there was no need for so many people!
Su Rou had been waiting at the door of the bar early. A woman's wardrobe is a mystery. You never know how many sets of clothes are stored in it.
Sure enough, Su Rou changed her clothes again, but this time she even changed her shoes.
The three of them entered the bar and came to the soundproof room.
"You don't mind me being a listener today, do you?"
A smile appeared at the corner of Mu Qingyun's mouth, as if a small dimple formed.
Su Rou had no objection, and Chen Ming didn't dare to have any.
When the boss speaks, he will naturally listen!
Mu Qingyun sat quietly in the corner, like a good baby.
There are three songs today, one is "May Rain" for violin solo, one is "Long Time No See" by Eason Chan, and the last one is "Lonely Northern Hemisphere" by Ou Deyang.
This is also a piece that Chen Ming took a long time to choose.
The violin is one of his best instruments, so "May Rain" does not require practice and can be played at any time.
"Long Time No See" and the previous "Contentment" and "Lonely Patient" belong to a category of sad emotional songs. To continue the style, to put it simply, we need to establish Chen Ming as the "Prince of Sad Emotional Songs".
As for "Lonely Northern Hemisphere", the tune is not particularly low-pitched. It mixes sadness with elements of hope. It is a small breakthrough for Chen Ming and tells the audience: I, Chen Ming, can change my style of music!
Chen Ming thought for a moment and planned to record "May Rain" first.
After all, this song doesn’t need to be sung, so it’s easier to record.
Su Rou and Mu Qingyun sat together, looking at Chen Ming with burning eyes.
"He's very talented."
Mu Qingyun said in a low voice.
Su Rou's eyes were smiling: "He is the most musically talented person I have ever seen."
Hearing this, Mu Qingyun glanced at Su Rou in surprise. It was not easy to hear praise from her.
The two fell silent, and Chen Ming's recording began.
It was obviously the second time Mu Qingyun listened to "May Rain", but she still cried. Fortunately, she came prepared this time and brought a large pack of tissues.
As for Su Rou, she was also in tears, feeling unspeakably uncomfortable in her heart.
One song uses up half of the paper towels!
Chen Ming saved the solo into his computer and turned to look at Mu Qingyun and Su Rou with a somewhat unnatural expression.
"Sister Yun, Su Rou, if you don't listen, your eyes will become swollen if you cry again."
The two women shook their heads at the same time.
Chen Ming sighed: "Su Rou, please help me accompany the next song."
Everyone is here, so they must use it.
And Chen Ming just needs to concentrate on singing!
Chen Ming handed the music score that had been composed in advance to Su Rou and asked her to practice it a few times first.
The score of "Long Time No See" is not difficult, and anyone with a little knowledge of music can easily get started. Naturally, it will not be difficult for Su Rou.
The three of them didn't even have lunch until after four o'clock in the afternoon when all three songs were recorded.
Chen Ming stretched himself. He was still a little tired from recording three songs at once!
After packing his things, Mu Qingyun smiled and said, "Let's go, we have a team building with three people today, and the boss is treating us."
“The boss is awesome!”
“The boss is awesome!!”
Chen Ming and Su Rou both raised their hands and cheered.
When the boss treats us to a treat, he chooses a restaurant that must be much higher-end than the restaurants outside, and specially orders a private room.
While waiting for the food to be served, Mu Qingyun asked hesitantly: "Chen Ming, what are your plans for the future?"
She always felt that Chen Ming would not last long in the bar.
In the past, she wanted to fire Chen Ming; but now, it depends on how long Chen Ming wants to stay...
As soon as these words came out, Su Rou also looked at Chen Ming, seeming to be very concerned about Chen Ming's answer!
"I don't have any plans, just keep singing."
Chen Ming didn't think too much about it. If he wanted to make his debut and become famous, he had to find a good entertainment company first. This was not something that could be found overnight. He had to take his time.
Su Rou's eyes flashed slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.
After a long time, Su Rou spoke softly: "Chen Ming, do you want to participate in "The Voice"?"
