Chapter 49: Unemployed in the later period
"Okay, you go ahead and record the songs! Our recording studio has very good equipment and is definitely of professional quality! Maybe these few of your songs will become an instant hit!"
Blue Eucalyptus and Zhou Yihang looked at each other, but Zhou Yiyang spoke first:
"What about me first?"
"Well," Eucalyptus globulus took out a piece of chocolate from her bag at some point and handed it to Zhou Yihang:
"Have a bite and you will have good luck."
"Really?" Zhou Yihang laughed and found that even the chocolates purchased from Eucalyptus globulus were sweet with milk filling.
When Zhou Yihang entered the recording studio, Eucalyptus sat at the door and looked at her mobile phone.
The president sent a message confirming the time for this staycation.
"It took us three days in total, and we went to a quite unpopular ancient town. It sounded pretty good!"
Since I traveled across time, I haven’t traveled seriously, so I’m really looking forward to it.
And she had a hunch that this might be one of the few times that she and many people from Maiba Society would go on a group trip.
Xia Shu, who stayed in the company, logged into the Blue Eucalyptus account and forwarded the fan club's Weibo, which was considered to have authenticated the fan club's identity.
Then she entered the fan group again and reassured fans, "The sound source is already being recorded!"
Eucalyptus globulus looked at the report sent back by Xia Shu and was very satisfied.
With her help, my little company is on the right track.
Of course, she also didn’t forget to thank Jia Xiaolong and Zhao Youtang on WeChat.
Not far away, the owner of the recording studio and the post-production staff were in the recording room, wearing headphones on their heads.
Neither the boss nor the staff have high expectations for Zhou Yihang's singing.
After all, he and Eucalyptus look too much like the kind of rich college students who record songs on a whim.
As for the originality, I'm afraid it's also the substandard level they often hear about.
The boss and the staff looked at each other and communicated invisibly:
"Others are God, no matter how bad our singing is, we still have to show our intoxication."
"Indeed, the sound can still be modified anyway. Boss, if you believe in my skills, they will doubt themselves when they hear my modified version!"
Until the distinctive Chinese style prelude sounded, the boss and staff raised their hands almost at the same time and covered their headphones tightly.
It seems that something is wrong?
The moment Zhou Yihang opened his mouth, he realized that his ability to empathize had failed.
To be precise, he has gained experience when singing this song, and he still has the same emotion as when he sang it for the first time.
But he did not enter the dream again. He completed the singing of this song in a more professional and mature state.
There is no broken sound this time, and the degree of completion is extremely high.
"Is that okay?"
Zhou Yihang took off his headphones and asked softly.
The boss woke up from a dream and rubbed his eyes:
"Brother, are you from Haiyin?"
"No." Zhou Yihang smiled: "I'm just a student from Hainan University, just an ordinary person who loves music."
Ordinary people?
I even cried in the later stage. Zhou Yihang sang so well that he almost didn’t need to modify his notes.
As for arranging music, he didn't even dare to do it. His level was completely unworthy of arrangement.
"Then let's move on to the next song?"
Zhou Yihang wants to give "Fairy Tale" a try.
It would be best if you could record several songs at once.
However, the moment Zhou Yihang opened his mouth, he noticed something was wrong.
He still has no empathy effect. Even if he can vaguely recall the plot of the music video from his memory, he doesn't feel deeply about it.
Since he has no emotional experience, it is even more difficult for him to sing the full emotion in this song.
However, thanks to his excellent tone and improving singing skills, the song was still finished.
Judging from the expressions of the boss and staff, they are still very satisfied.
Although the boss noticed that when singing this song, it seemed to be missing a bit of flavor.
But he thinks this is too normal. It is impossible for all professional singers to sing every song into a classic.
"Is this the first time I've sung this song? There are a few places where I feel it could be sung better." The boss noticed Zhou Yihang's confusion and put forward his own opinion.
"I won't record it now. I want to go back and change it."
"Okay, you have the final say." The boss smiled: "You creatives are different, you have really high requirements for your works!"
"Well, I asked her to come in and record the song."
Zhou Yihang didn’t think about the issue of empathy for the time being.
After Eucalyptus came in, she and Zhou Yihang sang "Wind-Blowed Summer" again.
Similarly, neither of them entered the previous fantasy again.
However, after this first experience, they both became more proficient in singing this song again.
Even when they looked at each other in the recording studio, they would inadvertently think of the scene in the music video, singing so hard that the boss's teeth were sore.
So sweet!
"You two are so matched!"
The boss repeatedly confirmed that these songs were written and composed by one of them, with a clear division of labor.
And their chorus makes people say that they are so suitable from appearance to singing.
Listening to a song, the boss seems to have watched an idol drama.
"We..."
Eucalyptus globulus and Zhou Yihang spoke at the same time:
"Just a collaborator."
However, the boss just laughed and didn't believe it.
Hum hum, it's just a young man's trick, he has seen a lot.
In the end, the song "It's Dark" by Eucalyptus globulus was still so moving, but this time she didn't cry in the middle.
As a studio version, this is absolutely impeccable.
However, Zhou Yihang agreed with what the music critic said. The several mistakes he made during his first performance seemed even more touching.
"Awesome!"
It took less than two hours to record three songs. This efficiency is unprecedented.
"You two are so secretive!"
When he looked at these two young handsome men and beautiful women, he never imagined that under such good skins, there would be shocking talents.
Each of these three songs has its own advantages, and to compete with today's hot songs on Douyin is almost a dimensionality reduction blow.
"I've had a lot of guys here who claim to be originalists. But to be honest, today you two showed me what talent is!"
"Besides, you two are so good-looking and talented, and you can also sing well! Let me fix the sound of these three songs, and I won't find any faults!"
The staff could see that the boss was really excited.
"So I must apologize to you."
Apologize? Zhou Yihang was stunned by the boss's words.
"I just said that your photos cannot be hung here for publicity."
"My taste is really bad. So now I officially invite you two. Can you take a photo with me and let me hang it on the wall to promote it."
"But boss," Eucalyptus globulus deliberately joked: "Didn't you just say that for newcomers like us, publicity is ineffective!"
"Who said that? Why don't I remember?" The boss pretended to be dumbfounded and said, "As soon as you release these three songs, you will no longer be a newcomer! In this way, I won't take the money you paid for recording the songs this time.
Just make friends!"
"Okay!"
Chapter completed!
