Chapter 15: 015: Recording Studio
The singers’ stamina is very good.
After all, a concert lasts two to three hours, and you can’t sing without some energy.
Zhang Liangying swayed and swayed, swaying to the bridge of happiness. Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, but Shen Qing was still not satisfied.
Because.
She always stops after a taste.
Cough~
This is the trouble caused by the most adorable height difference.
…
The next day.
Shen Qing found Ah Liang, the president of the Zhejiang University Tianci Music Society, through QQ and asked him to help find a C-class recording studio.
The price was not expensive, 600 yuan a day.
They rented it for two days.
The first day was for recording Ambitious Person.
The second day was for recording Thing.
This kind of recording studio is rather shabby, only providing some basic recording services, and the effect is far inferior to those top recording studios.
Having a recording studio does not mean you can start recording directly; a band is still needed.
Just as Shen Qing was at a loss, Ah Liang made a phone call and gathered all the top students from the Zhejiang University Music Society, who came in a rush, over a dozen people.
Some carried guitars, some carried electronic keyboards, and there were also erhu, violins, drum kits, basses, trumpets, tubas…
In addition, there were people holding DV cameras.
Shen Qing was slightly shocked; Zhejiang University is indeed full of talent…
He immediately transformed into an “arranging master,” distributed the scores to everyone, and explained the key points in detail.
Not only did Zhang Liangying become a little fan girl, but even the female members of the music society were looking at Shen Qing with longing eyes.
Beautiful women love talented men.
Moreover, Shen Qing was the youngest among this group of people.
And he was also the most handsome.
If Shen Qing wanted to, he could find a girlfriend on the spot with just a wave of his finger.
“Thank you all so much for your hard work. We aim to finish Ambitious Person in one day. Tonight, Liangying and I will treat everyone to drinks… Shall we start now…”
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
“Talented Shen is writing a song for Liangying, and Liangying will definitely win the championship.”
“…”
After the recording began, Shen Qing realized how difficult it was.
Although the music theory knowledge he had acquired in the past few days was sufficient, he was a novice in arrangement.
To be honest, he was a bit overwhelmed and didn’t understand many things.
Fortunately, the owner of the recording studio was an expert. With the owner’s help, Shen Qing finished the arrangement for Ambitious Person around 4 PM.
Next.
It was Zhang Liangying’s turn to perform.
She had rested for a whole day and was now full of energy. She only needed two takes to reach the standard.
Around 8 PM that evening, Shen Qing left the recording studio with the recorded CD and went to a food stall with the members of the music society.
Early the next morning.
He and Zhang Liangying did not do their morning exercises; they arrived at the recording studio early to continue recording Thing.
With yesterday’s experience, the speed was much faster.
When he received the recording CD again, the sun had not yet set.
After two days, Ah Liang was completely impressed by Shen Qing. “Shen Qing, although you are younger than me, I still want to call you Teacher Shen. I am truly impressed by your talent…”
Another female member added, “Music theory knowledge can be learned later, but every beautiful melody you write is pure talent.”
This statement was unanimously agreed upon by everyone, including the owner of the recording studio.
Some people have studied music for many years and even become music professors, but they still cannot write good or popular songs.
On the other hand, some people, even if they are not professionally trained, can hum catchy melodies as soon as they open their mouths, and their new songs can become popular all over the internet.
They considered Shen Qing to be the latter.
A talent freak!!
Fortunately, Shen Qing had a thick skin and accepted the title with a smile.
After all, the popular songs of the next twenty years were a huge treasure trove that he could draw upon at any time, so wasn’t that a form of talent?!
After dinner, as they were about to part, the pretty girl holding the DV asked, “Shen Qing, Liangying, can I organize the video and post it online?”
Zhang Liangying dared not make the decision herself and looked at Shen Qing.
Shen Qing laughed heartily, “Of course. We also want to thank you for helping with publicity. The video of the concert at the entrance of Zhejiang University the day before yesterday is said to be quite popular online now.”
The girl chuckled, “Then I’m relieved. I will definitely edit the video to be exciting, aiming to be even more popular than the video from the day before yesterday.”
…
“What? That fast?”
“Yes, the efficiency in Hangzhou is very high. The copyright application was approved just a few days after it was submitted. This is the CD Liangying recorded.”
“Great, that’s wonderful. I’ll mail it back to Beijing right away.”
“Then I won’t bother President Zhang. I need to take Zhang Liangying to practice singing.”
“Alright, you two go ahead.”
Shen Qing gave the master tape of Thing to Zhang Lu, and then walked with Zhang Liangying to West Lake. On the way, they were recognized by several groups of people.
This shows how effective the last competition was.
Many people have started to pay attention to Zhang Liangying.
In fact.
Online, he and Zhang Liangying are even more popular.
These past two days, the video of Zhang Liangying singing and campaigning for votes at the entrance of Zhejiang University has become the hottest topic on Tianya forum, second only to the newly released Initial D.
And.
As the video of him taking Zhang Liangying and members of the Zhejiang University Music Society to record songs in the studio was also posted online, the popularity further increased.
【 This year’s Super Girl champion will definitely be Zhang Liangying 】
【 Shen Qing + Zhang Liangying = Invincible 】
【 Rumor has it that Tianyu is going to sign Zhang Liangying soon 】
【 It is said that Li Yuchun has already been signed by Tianyu 】
【 Taihe Rye Music latest news: Thing is in talks with China Mobile for ringtone business, and the single will be released nationwide next week 】
【 Support, must buy 】
【 Zhang Liangying’s voice is amazing 】
【 I really look forward to Shen Qing releasing new songs so that Zhang Liangying can crush other contestants. I’ve been annoyed by Chun-ge for a long time 】
All of this was happening silently.
Shen Qing and Zhang Liangying had no time to think about these things. They arrived at the side of West Lake and found a secluded spot to practice singing.
“Liangying, Ambitious Person, like Thing, requires you to put in 100% emotion. Without emotion, you absolutely cannot sing it well.”
“For the verse part, use breathy voice as the main element and head voice as a supplement. Push the sound out and then draw it in. You need to give people a feeling of being oppressed by the world, with words stuck in your throat that you can’t speak.”
“You need to resist bit by bit, letting the listeners feel that you are about to see the light.”
“Starting from ‘I hear the wind, my wind, from the sea and the sky; it says don’t, don’t bow your head, bowing your head is a cage,’ your performance needs to change. You need to be confident and break free from the cage…”
“After the first round of lyrics is finished, in the second round, you need to be in a completely different state, full of passion, unwilling, and full of power, to showcase the image of the female protagonist in the lyrics who is unyielding to the oppression of reality…”
“Liangying, remember, the protagonist in the lyrics of this song I wrote is you!”
“You need to be a qualified ambitious person. You need to achieve a life transformation through your singing. You need to become a Heavenly Queen in the future…”
“Liangying, do you understand?”
Shen Qing finished conveying the emotion of the song, and Zhang Liangying nodded vigorously.
“Qing, for you, I will definitely work hard to sing it well.”
“I want to make everyone who looks down on us see us in a new light! For you, I must become a Heavenly Queen and live up to your expectations…”
