From Middle Age: Leisure Life in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 108 "Good Morning Huayin"

"Mr. Yu, I would like to make two suggestions for the songs you create: first, the lyrics should promote positive energy, and second, the songs should be easy to sing and make people sing catchy. Of course, this is my personal opinion for you to use when creating.

Reference at the time.”

personal opinion?

Isn’t that the official opinion?

But Minister Zhang is also right. The lyrics must be positive. As for the music score, rock, folk, and jazz will not work. It is best to have a simple rhythm and a divine song with brainwashing function.

As soon as Yu Dongqing thought about it, she immediately remembered a song.

So he smiled and said: "Mr. Zhang, I recently wrote a song that is more in line with your requirements. Do you think it will work if I sing a few lines?"

"Okay." Minister Zhang suddenly became interested.

Yu Dongqing cleared her throat and hummed.

Let me look at you affectionately again

good morning my baby

You accompany me to welcome the brilliant dawn

Welcome a new dawn

It's you who give me infinite strength

Move forward bravely

"Good morning, longhui"!

The song was a hit, but soon fell into plagiarism controversy. Some people on the Internet said that the melody sounded very familiar and was suspected of plagiarism from "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", "Flowers and Boys" and "Please Bring My Song Back to Yours".

Home" three songs.

But no matter what, this song has indeed become a very popular song, much like "Little Apple" in previous years.

Minister Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard it. This song is really catchy.

When hearing:

You are the most beautiful star in the night sky

Light up my way forward

You are the most beautiful encounter in my life

your happiness is the sun in my world

The lyrics are also good. Although they don’t mention the characteristics of hometown like other songs about hometown, the lyrics are indeed full of positive energy!

After Yu Dongqing finished singing, Minister Zhang asked eagerly.

"Mr. Yu, what's the name of this song?"

"Let's call it "Good Morning, Huayin"." Yu Dongqing said with a smile.

"Okay, let's call it this name, it's simple and eye-catching!" Minister Zhang immediately decided: "Mr. Yu, you are really a musical wizard."

"There, there"

The people next to me also praised one after another, and finally Minister Zhang decided to choose this song!

"I'll report to Secretary Liu immediately after I get back. How about you singing this song?" Minister Zhang asked.

Mr. Yu smiled and shook his head: "Mr. Zhang, you may hear that my voice is hoarse, but there is actually someone more suitable to sing this song."

"who?"

"My third uncle."

"Your third uncle?"

Before Yu Dongqing could speak, Party Secretary Yu Huaqing, who was sitting on a small stool, took over the conversation:

"That's Yu Hongguang. He is very good at singing old tunes. He also sang the theme song "Men Should Be Strong" in the TV series "Martial Arts Heroes" some time ago. He is Dongqing's third uncle."

"He, I know, is also a celebrity in our county." Minister Zhang said with a smile.

"My third uncle has a better voice than me, so I think it is more appropriate to sing this song. Besides, he is just an ordinary villager, so singing this song is more representative."

Director Zhang pondered for a moment: "Then let your third uncle sing, and you uncles and nephews will work together to get this thing done well, including arranging and recording. All funds will be paid by the county, Director Li."

As he spoke, Minister Zhang looked at the director of the Bureau of Culture and Tourism next to him: "Your Bureau of Culture and Tourism will be responsible for this matter, and the town will fully cooperate!"

"Don't worry, Minister Zhang, we will definitely do this well."

The matter was done, and Minister Zhang was very satisfied. Seeing that the time was almost up, he was ready to say a few more common things and leave.

Seeing Minister Zhang asking his parents about the family's income, last year's grain harvest, etc. in an amiable manner, Yu Dongqing winked at Yu Huaqing.

Yu Huaqing suddenly understood that he was talking about the third uncle's intangible inheritance.

Now the leaders of the county and town are here, which is a good opportunity!

It was more appropriate for Yu Dongqing to say this kind of thing himself. After all, he was the party secretary of Murakami, so Yu Huaqing took advantage of Minister Zhang's opportunity to drink tea after a hot chat and said with a smile: "Minister Zhang, Director Liu, Secretary Wu, I

I have something to report to the leaders."

"Oh, tell me."

"It's about applying for an intangible genetic inheritor." Yu Huaqing briefly explained what he had discussed with Yu Dongqing.

"Cultural inheritor?" Minister Zhang was not very clear about the matter, but Director Li, who was in charge of cultural tourism, did and explained the relevant policies.

"Now that Laoqiang has applied for provincial heritage status, the cultural inheritors should also be taken care of! This is also a powerful measure to protect traditional art and increase the popularity of Huayin!"

"Director Li, you have to hurry up on this matter and see if Yu Hongguang complies with the relevant policies and conditions. If so, hurry up and submit the materials!"

"Okay, Director Zhang." Director Li took out his notebook and wrote it down immediately.

After everything was done, Director Zhang left with his group. Before leaving, he told Yu Dongqing to hurry up and write and record the songs. All the expenses incurred would be borne by the county. For specific questions, you can directly contact Director Li.

Yu Dongqing agreed.

After seeing off the leader, Yu Dongqing and Yu Huaqing went to the third uncle's house to briefly talk about the matter. Yu Hongguang was naturally happy when he heard about the matter, and when he heard that there was going to be a new song, he immediately became excited.

"Holly, when should I sing? Where should I sing?"

"Arranging and recording songs require special equipment, but our place does not have such conditions." Yu Dongqing pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go to Xi'an. It's not far anyway."

"Okay, okay, then let's go to Xi'an!"

But before going to Xi'an, I had to sing this song well. Yu Huaqing helped borrow a guitar from a college student who came back from the village to celebrate the New Year and gave it to Yu Dongqing. The uncle and nephew started singing it at the third uncle's house.

In the middle of the night, I heard Yu Hongguang's high-pitched voice and magical melody.

Let me look at you affectionately again

Good night my baby

You accompany me into sweet dreams

Release your beautiful mood

Occasionally, a few dogs barked in response.

The next morning, the uncle and nephew took their luggage and boarded the high-speed train to Xi'an.

Sitting on the high-speed train going west, Yu Hongguang looked at the scenery passing by outside the window, and suddenly said with emotion: "Dongqing, these six months, I feel like I am dreaming."

"dream?"

"You see, I'm just a farmer. I can shout a few old tunes, but I ended up going to Yanjing to have the central orchestra accompany me. Now, the county leaders ask me to sing songs from my hometown, and I will even appear on TV in the future.

It’s something I couldn’t even imagine before.”

Yu Dongqing laughed after hearing this: "Third uncle, this is nothing. In the future, you and your old friends may go to Yanjing to sing again, and maybe you can even go to the Spring Festival Gala for the whole country to listen."

"Going to the Spring Festival Gala?!" Yu Hongguang's eyes widened.

Yu Dongqing nodded affirmatively.

In the original time and space, Huayin Laoqiang did indeed attend the Spring Festival Gala.

It’s less than an hour’s drive from Huayin to Xi’an by high-speed train. Yu Dongqing and his third uncle got off from the North Station, took the subway and stayed at a hotel on Huancheng South Road, and then went to a nearby recording studio called DJ168.

room.

This was contacted by Yu Dongqing online, and the price was even agreed upon. The recording fee was 300 yuan per hour, but Yu Dongqing also wanted to use their equipment to arrange the music, so the price was 400 yuan per hour.

The song "Good Morning, Long Hui" is relatively simple in terms of melody and arrangement. It didn't take Yu Dongqing long to finish it. Yu Hongguang was no longer as nervous as he was when he entered the recording studio for the first time in Yanjing. He looked calm and unhurried.

The recording will end in the afternoon.

We returned to the hotel and rested for a while. At about six o'clock in the evening, the two of them went out to find another restaurant called Lao Ma's Mutton Steamed Bun. Each of them ate a large bowl of mutton steamed buns. Yu Dongqing knew that his third uncle liked to drink, so he specially ordered some for him.

I bought a bottle of Xifeng wine worth twenty taels.

After dinner, the two of them started walking around in the street.

The lanterns are on.

It is still during the Chinese New Year, and the night view of the street is very beautiful, but Huancheng South Road is not a commercial district, it is relatively deserted, and the weather is still cold. After walking around for a while, Yu Hongguang felt bored and wanted to go back.

It would be better for the cat to watch TV in the hotel.

"Third uncle, don't worry, let's go to a place, it will be fun." Yu Dongqing said.

"Where to go? Is it a karaoke bar? Or a disco?" Yu Hongguang asked curiously.

How did you get there?

Yu Dongqing could only say: "No, Wenchangmen is not far from here."
