Chapter 9 The troubles of happiness(1/2)

"I don't know who you are talking about, Director Liu?" Yu Anzhen asked curiously.

"You'll know in a moment, I promise I won't let you down." Director Liu Peng, who was walking in front, once again lied.

While Yu Anzhen was still guessing which outstanding composer it was, the three of them had already arrived outside the recording studio.

Liu Peng held the door handle without using any force. He turned around and told Yu Anzhen and Ye Fei: "Let's go directly to the recording studio in the back and try to keep it as quiet as possible!"

Yu Anzhen and Ye Fei naturally knew the rules of the recording studio and nodded.

Pushing open the door of the recording studio, Liu Peng saw Xiao Yuxuan who was busy. He suppressed his curiosity and led the two of them directly into the recording studio behind without disturbing him.

Three people came in again, and the recording studio, which was not that big, suddenly became crowded.

Zhou Xianjun naturally noticed the arrival of Liu Pengdai and others, and while he was secretly wondering, "Who is this woman with big sunglasses covering half of her face?", he saw this woman walking directly towards him in a few steps.

In front of me, I took off my sunglasses and bowed slightly:

"Hello, Teacher Zhou! I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Yu Anzhen...it's you! Hello!"

"Yes, Teacher Zhou, I am Yu Anzhen, long time no see."

"Haha... Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I last saw you, but I often see you on TV and in newspapers, haha..."

Liu Peng also came over at this time, looked at Zhou Xianjun and then at Yu Anzhen:

"Lao Zhou, have you known each other before?"

Yu Anzhen explained with a smile: "Director Liu, I graduated from the Shanghai Music Conservatory. Teacher Zhou is our professional teacher and teaches us music history, but my grades at that time were not very good."

Zhou Xianjun did not interrupt but smiled and nodded.

"Oh, haha, there is still this relationship! I forgot to introduce you. This is Miss Yu Anzhen. You all must know her. This is Miss Yu's assistant, Ms. Ye Fei. The two here are from our station.

The musicians here are Teacher Ma Kang and Teacher Fang Fuyun!”

After a brief handshake and greetings, Liu Peng said:

"Don't stand around, sit down and talk... I would like to invite Miss Yu to sing the ending song "You are the wind and I am the sand". Your accompaniment has just been recorded. Can you let Miss Yu get familiar with it first? Is that convenient, Mr. Zhou?

?”

"It turns out that Yu Anzhen was invited to sing. No wonder you were trying to get along with me on the phone. What's the inconvenience in this?"

"Teacher Zhou, you are all my teachers and seniors. You can call me Xiao Yu or An Zhen." Yu Anzhen said calmly and generously.

"Then I will just call you An Zhen. The accompaniment of "You are Feng'er and I am Sha" has indeed been recorded, but I suggest you wait until Yu Xuan is finished and talk to him directly. You should gain something.

." Zhou Xianjun suggested.

Yu Anzhen asked Liu Peng: "Yu Xuan? Is he the outstanding creator you mentioned just now, Director Liu?"

Liu Peng pointed to the figure outside the soundproof glass: "Well, that's Xiao Yuxuan. He's your junior brother. He's now a graduate student at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music. You, Mr. Zhou, are his mentor."

Yu Anzhen looked in the direction Liu Peng pointed, and could only see a back figure, and could not distinguish the others.

"Lao Zhou, what were you talking about on the phone just now?" Liu Peng asked Zhou Xianjun, then raised his hand and looked at his watch: "It's already dinner time. I'm hosting tonight and the place has been booked.

How about we go over now and chat while we eat?"

While Zhou Xianjun was chatting, he was still distractedly paying attention to Xiao Yuxuan outside. When he saw Xiao Yuxuan, he seemed to have put another piece of manuscript paper aside. Based on his previous experience, he deduced that this meant that Xiao Yuxuan had completed it again.

A song?

Zhou Xianjun didn't say anything, just said "You guys sit down first, I'll go out and take a look" and got up and walked out.

Seeing this situation, Ma Kang and Fang Fuyun glanced at each other, and both saw incredible meaning in each other's eyes.

However, Liu Peng, Yu Anzhen and Ye Fei, who had just arrived, were as confused as two-foot-tall monks - they couldn't figure their heads out.

Several people's eyes followed Zhou Xianjun.

Soon, Zhou Xianjun turned back into the house with a piece of paper in his hand.

"Old Zhou, what is this?" Liu Peng asked.

"Teacher Zhou, classmate Xiao Yuxuan has finished another song?" Ma Kang was a little unsure.



Zhou Xianjun nodded to answer Ma Kang's question.

Then he handed the manuscript paper in his hand to Ma Kang who was impatient, "Teacher Ma, you and Teacher Fang alternate between looking at this one. Give me the previous one first!"

After collecting the other three pieces of manuscript paper, he handed them to Liu Peng: "Didn't you ask Yu Xuan to write a song for you? See if you are satisfied."

Liu Peng flipped through the three pieces of manuscript paper in his hand, then looked at the one in Ma Kang's hand, in disbelief: "Four new songs?"

Zhou Xianjun nodded at Liu Peng's incredible question: "Yeah!"

Then he added: "He was busy for more than two hours!"

Liu Peng was a little confused when he looked at the familiar paper he had printed out by himself, and slapped his forehead: "No... Xiao Yuxuan doesn't think I mean to rewrite everything, right?"

Zhou Xianjun was stunned when he heard this: "Isn't it true? Why did you tell him that you don't know?"

"How could that be possible..." Liu Peng was a bit dumbfounded, "It's my fault too! I thought that I could just wait until the ending theme was finished and ask him to help write two more interludes. I just wanted to save trouble and just give him the soundtrack request that I gave to the studio at that time.

I printed it out. I gave it to him last night just for reference. He was busy at the time, so I didn’t explain it clearly when I gave it to him... I thought I would explain it to him in detail today..."

Of course Zhou Xianjun did not expect such a thing to happen.

"Don't talk about those things that are available or not. Now that you've written it, you should first see if it suits you..."

This format of "front question and back answer" seems very comfortable, because you can quickly grasp the idea and theme of the lyrics by comparing the front and back.

Don't be afraid of not knowing the goods, just be afraid of comparing goods.

Liu Peng doesn't understand simplified musical notation. From the lyrics alone, after comparing it with the works provided by the previous studio, it is still easy to make a judgment.

Liu Peng had the urge to replace all the interludes and soundtrack.

However, he was now past the impulsive age, and he was thinking silently in his mind: The whole replacement thing is no joke. Is the employer willing to spend money twice for the music part? That music studio is a frequent collaborator.

Doing this will definitely offend people, and will we never see each other again? Not only that, a lot of the previous editing work will have to be reworked. Is there enough time?

Let’s wait and see!

But these three songs are really more suitable, what should I do?

This is simply a happy trouble!

Liu Peng read one and handed it to Yu Anzhen, "Anzhen, you are a professional when it comes to songs, take a look too."

Yu Anzhen naturally follows the good example, and she also wants to know what the "excellent producer" in the words of director Liu Peng is.

He took the paper handed over by Director Liu Peng and read it with curiosity.

As time passed by, Xiao Yuxuan actually kept writing a new song almost every half an hour.

Zhou Xianjun got up and went out to get the fifth piece of manuscript paper, then the sixth, the seventh...

Several people in the recording studio were in different moods, and director Liu Peng didn't mention hosting the meal again.

From emotion to disbelief to shock.

I have never eaten pork, but I have always seen pigs running away.

We are all insiders. Even if we have not personally interacted with it, we probably all know it. I have never heard of anyone being able to write songs as fast as drinking water. When did song writing become so easy?

In the end, no one could calm down and slowly savor the tunes and lyrics on the manuscript paper, and they all stared at the figure outside the soundproof glass.

It wasn't until Xiao Yuxuan put another piece of manuscript paper next to him, put down the pen and paper, put his hands on the table, and rubbed his temples repeatedly with his thumbs for a while, Zhou Xianjun pushed the door open again and walked out. No one else could sit still.

, the front and rear feet followed out.

----------------------------------------

Xiao Yuxuan turned his head in excitement: Ouch! When did so many people come?

Xiao Yuxuan stood up and pushed away the chair. He felt his feet were numb. He pulled off the hood of his sweater and found that in addition to his master Zhou Xianjun and director Liu Peng, there were four men and women he didn't know. He didn't take the initiative to say hello to anyone he didn't know.

"Master, Teacher Liu, are you all here?"

Zhou Xianjun said "hmm" and looked at the last simplified score of "As Long as I Have You" in his hand without saying much.

Only then did Yu Anzhen take a serious look at "Classmate Xiao Yuxuan" whom she had heard countless times this afternoon. He was only about twenty-twenty-three years old, and his long hair almost covered his small eyes.

A big nose and a small mouth, combined into a face that is not considered handsome. He wears a black sweatshirt, dark jeans, and a pair of white sneakers - very ordinary, the kind that will disappear if thrown into a crowd.

Oh, and he seems to like wearing hats. He puts on his sweatshirt and hat even when sitting in the house. What's wrong with him?

At first glance, he doesn’t look like an “excellent creator”!



Director Liu Peng laughed and patted Xiao Yuxuan's shoulder: "Yuxuan, thank you for your hard work. I want all 8 of your songs!"

Are you still struggling with the worries of happiness just now?

I just want to be happy, forget about worries first, and then talk about problems later!

"Eight songs? Two of them are not right! "One Cut Plum Blossom" and "Plum Blossom Introduction" do not meet your requirements, Teacher Liu! There are two more soundtracks for you later."
