Chapter 8 He's a True Genius

Although Yueyin Records was established not long ago, and the company's main business is currently singer competitions, there is no lack of professional production teams within Yueyin Records.

Inside Studio One.

Many professionals were studying the lyrics and music while watching the video of Wen Zheng singing "Broad Sea and Sky" a cappella.

This video, at best, is not much better than a demo. The main theme is roughly there, but it is still far from a finished song that can be released.

When a single is released, if the accompaniment and arrangement are not good, no matter how good the lyrics and melody are, it will appear dull.

This song "Broad Sea and Sky" will be the first single released by Yueyin Records. They are bound to give the audience an auditory feast!

"I think it's better to use guitar as the main accompaniment, which suits Wen Zheng's feeling when he sings a cappella."

"No, I think the guitar-based accompaniment is not expressive enough and lacks meaning. Well... I can't say what is missing. I think we should first find out what Wen Zheng wants to express from the lyrics.

Be emotional."

"If you're not expressive enough, let's play the piano."

"It makes sense, why don't we all try it first..."

At this moment, Wen Zheng suddenly walked in and couldn't help but interject: "The essence of this song's melody lies in its sense of power and rhythm. I think if the accompaniment is to be perfect, strings must be added, otherwise it will be too thin.

"

No one noticed Wen Zheng coming in. After hearing this, they subconsciously started discussing.

"Strings? How many people are needed? No, no, the whole song will be a mess and it will be very difficult to complete."

"I don't think it's necessary. As long as the piano playing level is high enough and it's the main accompaniment, the desired effect can be achieved."

"You can't even play piano, but you need strings? Ridiculous! How about giving you a whole top foreign symphony orchestra? That's nonsense."

"Hey, hello, boss! Wen Zheng?"

The staff suddenly discovered the presence of Wen Zheng and Lin Qingge, and their expressions instantly calmed down.

Lin Qingge waved his hand, indicating that they could do whatever they wanted.

Wen Zheng didn't waste any time. He took a look at the equipment in the room and said solemnly: "I'll write out the complete song. You can listen to the accompaniment with piano as the main part first. However, if you are really in a hurry, you should do it now.

Just contact the orchestra, rehearsals take a lot of time."

The boss was in front of him and the original singer also spoke, so naturally no one dared to say anything else.

But none of them believed that this plan was feasible. After all, Wen Zheng was just a trainee. Although he sang well, it was just because his voice was too good. What could he understand about music and art?

Arranging music is not a simple matter, it requires music theory knowledge and experience.

He is a young man in his early twenties and a novice who has become a monk. What does he know?

Soon, a professional musician accompanied Wen Zheng's music live. After trying the effect, everyone's expressions became solemn.

The piano-based accompaniment is indeed good, but as Wen Zheng said, the accompaniment in the second half is still too thin.

In fact, this level of accompaniment is totally fine in a live performance, but what they want to do now is a single that strives for excellence, which is another matter.

When listening to a singer live, it mainly depends on the atmosphere and the singer's performance. However, if there is any slight flaw in the music on the record, even people who are not so knowledgeable will immediately notice it, let alone those who are knowledgeable.

When Lin Qingge saw this, he immediately gave his assistant a wink, and the latter quickly contacted the professional orchestra.

This is the first song released by Yueyin Records. If the quality is not good enough and people find faults casually, it will make people question their professionalism and affect the ongoing singer competition, which will be a huge loss.

She cannot allow other entertainment companies to take advantage of her.

In less than an hour, an orchestra of more than thirty people came to Yueyin Records.

When Wen Zheng secretly sighed at the terrifying work efficiency of Yueyin Records, he subconsciously ignored the music director who was present and directly arranged the orchestra.

Only an hour later.

Wen Zheng, who was looking at everyone's surprised eyes, said loudly: "We are all professionals, and the accompaniment of this song "Sea, Sky, Sky" is not complicated. If there is no problem, let's try the effect first. All units are ready!"

The prelude of the piano played, and the gentle singing voice sounded at the right time, as if softly telling the desire for freedom and dreams.

The chorus begins, and the long-awaited orchestra takes the lead with the percussion. After the gongs vibrate slightly, the drums, orchestral sounds, etc. directly come on top. The percussion, with the cooperation of the orchestral instruments, is mixed with the piano sound, and the rhythm is in harmony with the sound of the piano.

The sense of power comes up instantly without losing the strong expressive power.

As the string music gradually equals or even surpasses the sound of the piano, the rhythm gradually intensifies. The singing in Wen Zheng's mouth is no longer a whisper. The same lyrics have become a song and cry in adversity.

The charm and appeal of the song are truly revealed.

All the professionals at Yueyin Records were stunned.

Why is Wen Zheng able to make such an outstanding arrangement in one go? Is arranging really that simple?!

From low to high to explosive, they all know the emotional tone, but why does Wen Zheng want to appear more professional? The interspersed use of various musical instruments makes it impossible to find any fault.

Also, the timing of using the strings was so perfect. Could it be that he had secretly rehearsed it and was here specifically to mess up the performance today?

If not, then calling him a genius would not be an exaggeration at all.

Zhao Qiuxing, the music director of Yueyin Records, was originally resentful of Wen Zheng's overreaching command, but he was too embarrassed to speak out because his boss was present. But when the facts were before his eyes, he had to admit that Wen Zheng was much more professional than him.

.

At least the little time just now was given to him to make arrangements. He couldn't do it so perfectly in one go.

"Just use the current version, no need to change it anymore!"

After listening to this, Lin Qingge said nothing and made a decision directly, and said, "Be sure to record the accompaniment today. Wen Zheng will come to record the song tomorrow morning. I plan to use this song as the theme of the 'Dragon Star' singer competition."

song!"

When everyone heard this, they only dared to say so.

Firstly, the accompaniment of this song can be said to be perfect now, and there is no need to change it; secondly, the boss has made the decision, so there is no reason for them to talk nonsense.

Wen Zheng breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Then I'll go back first?"

He had to go back quickly. He had tens of thousands of worship points. If he didn't redeem something from the system, he would definitely not be able to sleep well tonight.

Lin Qingge hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Remember to come over tomorrow morning to record the song."

After Wen Zheng left.

Lin Qingge called music director Zhao Qiuxing into his office and asked, "What do you think of Wen Zheng?"

Zhao Qiuxing's heart suddenly pounded. What's going on? Could it be that Wen Zheng really ruined my job?

He gritted his teeth and said cruelly: "If he hadn't practiced in advance, I would call him a real genius."

"As you can see, he has his own understanding and pursuit of music. Once this song is released, and the story behind it, I think it will affect a generation. Like Wen Zheng's previous experience, he is not the first

One, but his current performance is unique. I think many artists will be infected by his unyielding spirit and see in him the hope for the rise of the Dragon Country music scene."

"In the near future, our Dragon Kingdom entertainment circle may no longer have to follow others and eat dust. We will have our own king-level superstar."

Lin Qingge just nodded after hearing this.

She was not going to tell Zhao Qiuxing that Wen Zheng was able to do this because he had just imagined it in advance. She was afraid that Zhao Qiuxing would not be able to bear the blow.

"Do you think Wen Zheng is suitable for the position of music director?"

Lin Qingge suddenly asked.

"Ah? This... regardless of age, he is completely suitable."

Zhao Qiuxing hesitated for a moment and then said it bravely.

Lin Qingge couldn't help but smile and said: "I have no intention of replacing you, I just want to keep Wen Zheng in our company. You have already said that he is a genius, so I will not let go of this cash cow. Don't worry, if he

Come, you will be in charge of the singer competition in our division, and the team and position here will be reserved for you."

After Zhao Qiuxing heard this, he grinned from ear to ear.

It was a blessing in disguise that I got promoted. It seemed like I was going to add another highlight to my resume.
