Chapter 87 Not Letting Go
November 5, Sunday, sunny.
Today is the day that Bai Xingjian records "In the Name of the Father".
Early in the morning, led by Zheng Wei, they came to a professional recording studio in Linjiang City.
In addition, two Italian singers invited by Zheng Wei also came here.
One of the men was named Mark, who was about 40 or 50 years old.
The female singer was called Louise, she was also in her late 40s and a bit plump.
After some greetings, Bai Xingjian and two foreign singers entered the recording studio together.
"There are so many Italian words in the song 'In the Name of the Father' written by Yoyo, but I didn't expect that he himself doesn't know much Italian. It's really strange."
In the leisure area outside the recording room, Mei Jie looked at Bai Xingjian in the recording studio with a smile.
Zheng Wei smiled and said, "This is actually quite normal. After all, music creation is often inspired by flashes of inspiration. The inspiration for Xing Jian's song "In the Name of the Father" might have come from Italian opera."
Mei Jie nodded thoughtfully, looking at Feng Shiqi with curiosity in her eyes: "Sister Shiqi speaks Italian quite fluently, Sister Shiqi, you are so talented!"
"That's right! I didn't expect that the person who speaks Italian best in our team would be Shiqi."
Zheng Wei's tone was quite emotional, and he looked at Feng Shiqi with admiration.
"I learned some minor languages in college, but I only had a superficial understanding of them and didn't make much progress." Feng Shiqi responded with a smile.
"Does the broadcasting major need to learn a minor language?" Mei Jie asked.
"We have it there, I don't know if other universities have it."
"Ah~ Sister Shiqi, I really envy you!"
"..."
Girls always have a lot to talk about, and soon Feng Shiqi, Mei Jie, Zheng Wei and others started chatting.
This situation continued until Bai Xingjian and the other two came out of the recording studio.
Mark praised Bai Xingjian in fluent Chinese: "China is indeed a country with vast territory and abundant resources, and it is home to many talented people! I really like this song "In the Name of the Father". Can you give me a CD after you release it?"
The last sentence stumped Bai Xingjian.
CD?
According to the plan given by Yehua Entertainment, "In the Name of the Father" seems to only be released through streaming channels and will not be released on CDs or cassettes. After all, there is only one song this time.
But this is not a problem.
Since Mark wanted a CD, Bai Xingjian could just ask the relevant personnel to stop some CDs from coming out, which was not a difficult task.
So Bai Xingjian responded very straightforwardly: "Of course."
Louise also spoke in her rather halting Chinese: "Can I...can I have a CD too?"
"Of course." Bai Xingjian said with a smile: "You can leave your address then, and we can send it directly to you after the CD is made."
"That's great!"
"Thank you! Bai..."
Seeing the harmonious atmosphere among the three of them, Zheng Wei asked with a smile: "So, have you finished recording the song?"
Mark and Louise nodded and said in unison, "Our part has been recorded."
Bai Xingjian shrugged and spread his hands helplessly: "As for my part, it will probably take some time to record."
The Italian verses and soprano parts were relatively short, so Mark and Louise only recorded them a few times to meet Bai Xingjian's requirements.
As for the main part of the song, even though Bai Xingjian improved a lot last night, it is still quite difficult to sing "In the Name of the Father" perfectly.
Although the current problems can be solved by post-production sound editing, Bai Xingjian still wants to achieve perfection and make it as natural as possible.
After all, if you edit the sound too much, it will give people the illusion that "this is how I will sing it."
"It's okay, it's already great, and we still have plenty of time!" Feng Shiqi came to him and comforted him.
"That's right! Brother Yoyo, we don't need to rush." Mei Jie also said so.
As for Zheng Wei, he made an apologetic gesture to the three of them and continued to discuss some matters with Mark and Louise. Bai Xingjian's mouth corners slightly raised.
This may be the meaning of the existence of groups and teams.
……
Time flies and it is May 5th.
Today, Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi came to the studio of Mango Radio Building.
In the preparation room that belongs exclusively to Lin Qingying's team.
Bai Xingjian and Lin Qingying were discussing how to re-arrange "Above the Moon".
[New task released: Please ask the host, Feng Shiqi, and Lin Qingying to sing the version of "Above the Moon" and get 10000 people to like it]
[Reward: Blind box of the work*1, attribute points*n]
The system information flashed by, Bai Xingjian glanced at it, and without thinking too much, he continued:
"The original song of 'Above the Moon' was about four minutes long. In order to comply with the audition rules, many elements were deleted, including two Mongolian sections and a few short raps."
"Mongolian?!"
Lin Qingying's eyes lit up, and then she revealed an expression of sudden enlightenment: "I said that this song sounded like it was missing something, and it turns out it's here!"
"Keep it, keep it! This time our collaborative stage must retain all the Mongolian and those rap clips." Lin Qingying said seriously.
"Keep everything?" Bai Xingjian raised his eyebrows. "If we add Sister Lin's part, won't it take too long?"
Lin Qingying shook her head: "How can this be too long? And isn't it better to be longer? Fans like longer ones."
I don’t know if the instructor was driving, but Bai Xingjian had nothing to say.
Since Sister Lin has no concerns, what else does he have to worry about?
Lin Qingying stroked his chin and said after a moment's hesitation, "I'm afraid I'll have to think about it for a while before I can come up with any results."
She looked at the two of them and said, "Xingjian, Shiqi, why don't you two sing the full version of "Above the Moon" first? I'll listen from below and see if I can come up with any inspiration."
"it is good."
"Ok."
Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi nodded, and then the three of them walked towards the stage together.
While they were rehearsing, Zheng Wei also became busy.
The studio version of "In the Name of the Father" has been recorded, and the next step is to officially enter the promotion and distribution period.
"Mr. Ji, I'm Zheng Wei. Yes, Bai Xingjian is now an artist here. Isn't he about to release a single? So I want to ask if you still have any resources left for overseas promotion."
Zheng Wei said to Ji Qiu on the other end of the phone.
Overseas promotion resources are generally only available for albums with five or more songs. Singles generally do not have such resources unless they are released by a popular singer in the company.
So, Zheng Wei just asked tentatively.
Because she learned from Mark and Louise that the song "In the Name of the Father" might resonate with some foreign listeners.
However, the result was just as Zheng Wei expected, her request was rejected.
Ji Qiu, who was on the other end of the phone, looked at the promotional poster for Wen Suxi's new song on the giant billboard not far away and shook his head regretfully.
"Bai Xingjian's creative ability is indeed good, but can the singles he released really be compared with Wen Suxi, who is now a pop star? And Xiao Wei is also panicking. She actually wants to give Bai Xingjian overseas promotion resources? It seems that she still hasn't let go of those things in the past!"
Ji Qiu lit a cigarette and stared at Wen Suxi's poster in a daze.
To be honest, he still hasn't let it go.
