Perfect Life

Vol 5 Chapter 172: This is really a sad story!

"This is really a sad morning!" Li Qian said with emotion.

Liao Liao smiled, reached out and thumped him lightly.

Several people stood on the steps in front of the door, watched the three cars drive out of the villa, watched the door slowly close, and then turned around and walked back.

"The song Millie Feier wrote for you is good." Xie Mingyuan said earnestly.

Liao Liao nodded, and Li Qian also nodded.

"But when she was leaving, she was very unwilling." Xie Mingyuan said again.

Liao Liao laughed, while Li Qian shrugged.

Yes, it was a sad morning. After nearly a day's flight, I finally landed. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't hug my wife and kiss my lips. As a result, I was forced to play the piano and sing to others, and even gave a girl to her. Sing and cried and cried so much, because she thought of her grandmother.

The old lady who grew up taking care of her, bought her her first musical instrument, the harmonica, likes smoking, likes to speak German, but is forced to speak English with a very inaccurate Texas accent.

So, no one mentions what competition is not a competition, no matter how much Millie Feier scratches her heart, it is impossible for her good friend to mention a second song when her good friend is so sad.

So, after crying a lot, Jon and Millie volunteered to take Serena home, but in the end Serena drove by herself, and the three of them came together and left together.

At noon, everyone had lunch together. After lunch, Liao Min was very energetic. Sun Meimei took her out to visit Los Angeles, especially Hollywood. Xie Mingyuan was extremely fluent in English and French, and he was very good in Los Angeles. Some good friends borrowed a car and decided to go out for a walk.

In fact, it means that everyone has tacitly left time and space to Li Qian and Liao Liao.

Although this villa is big enough and has enough rooms, it is better for two people.

The next day, everyone was going to play their own way, but Millie Fayle and Serena Dunn made a phone call so that they could find a place to have lunch in a hurry, Li Qian and Liao Liao had to I hurried back to the villa and talked about Eastern and Western music with the two American girls until the evening.

On the third day after coming to the United States, Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan finally started work.

After all, the two of them came here with a heavy responsibility.

In an audition room, Liao Liao gave each of them a printed sheet of song sheet, each with a pen.

It is said that there are a total of 26 songs. Of course, all of them are in English, but there are still only demos. Some have a little simple accompaniment, such as guitar, piano, or simple tambourine, and some are simply only Vocal and unaccompanied.

The task of Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan is to listen to twenty-six songs in one breath, and select eight to ten candidates. At the end, there will be about two or three of these eight to ten songs, and they will finally be selected by Liao Liao. 's new album.

The Rolling Stones believe that Liao Liao's insistence on putting four Chinese songs in the album has a huge impact on the album's global sales. They believe that listeners from so many countries around the world want to listen to English songs and they do not understand Chinese. , then for these fans, there will of course be a huge gap in the appeal of six English works and ten English works.

Therefore, they once asked to restart the relevant contract negotiations, hoping that China's Minghu culture can give up placing Chinese songs in such global albums, and change to an album with all English works to sell all over the world, and then release another album of Chinese works. Specializing in the sale of Chinese cultural circles.

However, things didn't reach Li Qian's ears in time. Liao Liao and Sun Meimei directly rejected it. If you think this model is not good, we can terminate the contract peacefully at any time!

The tough attitude of Liao Liao and Sun Meimei shocked the Rolling Stones!

Although the family has a big business, but the sales and influence are strong to Liao Liao's level of singers, for Rolling Stones, that is absolutely not willing to give up!

And the most terrible thing is that Liao Liao's contract only has one album left!

If the relationship is not handled well, after the release of this album, Liao Liao can freely sign with any record company at any time. Liao, who has won the title of "Oriental Goddess" in the Western society, will there be any record company that is not envious?

Therefore, the Rolling Stones quickly said: No problem, continue with four Chinese songs and six English songs!

In fact, it is difficult for them to understand. This is not because Liao Liao and Li Qian want to be lazy, and it is not because they can't make a Chinese and an English album at the same time and sell them separately, but in Li Qian's view, there are It is necessary to pass on some Chinese culture through Liao Liao's voice and influence. In Liao Liao's view, keeping a small part of the Chinese works in his global albums, in addition to fulfilling Li Qian's concern about promoting the nation In addition to cultural obsessions, the most important thing is to always remind yourself not to forget your roots!

So, her new album, the initial plan is still six English songs.

Of course, the maximum capacity of an album’s CD can actually hold twelve, or even thirteen or four songs. So, if there are really a lot of good songs, there is no problem with adding one or two more songs. .

…………

Liao Liao's singing came from the speakers.

Although it is only a small sample, the recording is quite particular.

Liao Liao sat next to Li Qian, Xie Mingyuan was on Li Qian's side, and in the back row sat Liao Min and Sun Meimei, who were pretentious.

After each song was played, Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan both picked up their pens and made marks on the songbook in their hands.

It took more than an hour to listen to it, and a CD was changed in the middle. When the playback was over, Sun Meimei went over to open the curtains, and Liao Liao's eyes were already looking back and forth on Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan.

Among the people she can trust most, when it comes to musical ability, these two are obviously the best.

Xie Mingyuan has been in Europe for many years. He is a violin master and has been in charge of Sony Records for many years. He has a profound understanding and unique insights into global popular music. His musical ability and business vision should not be underestimated.

And Li Qian... well, needless to say.

At this time, the two were slowly turning back their songbooks, as if they were recalling the rhythm and melody of the song one by one as they turned.

Xie Mingyuan was the first to turn back to the first page, raised his head, and said, "The first song feels more ordinary."

Li Qian didn't speak, he continued to turn slowly, and finally turned back to the first page, he nodded, "Well, cut this off!"

Then it was Xie Mingyuan again, "The second song, this country style, I don't think it suits Liao Liao."

Li Qian thought for a while, then nodded, "Yes, cut it off too."

Liao Liao was still full of expectations, but when he heard this, he sighed helplessly.

Sun Meimei hid in the back row and snickered.

Li Qian looked over and asked with a smile, "What did you write?"

Liao Liao nodded.

Xie Mingyuan laughed, "It's too stiff!"

…………

Comments come and go, one by one, if there is uncertainty, hesitation, or disagreement between the two, just listen to it again, and discuss its advantages and disadvantages with each other enthusiastically.

The two of them cut the song with a drastic measure. Sun Meimei felt a little distressed about the many works in it. In fact, they were all collected by the record company, and some of them were specially given by friends they knew in the circle. You said Whether it’s a set, or a sincere friendship, in short, it’s not something you simply pay for, here, it’s all about human relationships!

But, kill it and kill it.

But think again, this is inevitable.

After all, there are only six English songs in an album, and it can be expanded to seven or eight songs, and Li Qian's works must occupy half, or even more of the works like yesterday when he released them. He can hear two of them. The little American queens all cry and admit defeat. Whether it's Liao Liao or Sun Meimei, in fact, I wish that the whole album would be arranged by Li Qian!

The point is, there is a circle everywhere, and if you want to get along well in the circle, you have to go out and make friends! So, for the songs written by friends, choose two songs with high level!

In contrast, I have to say that Millie Faye is indeed a new generation of little queens who have stood out in the European and American music circles in recent years. Her creative ability is indeed quite outstanding!

That guy Jon also has a song that was highly praised by Xie Mingyuan and Li Qian, but... the style and color of that song are a little dark, so it's really not suitable for Liao Liao to post.

Not to mention that Liao Liao created a healthy and sunny image in her last album, she just said that she currently represents the face of the Chinese music scene internationally, and such a dark work is not suitable.

Of course, the song is really good!

At the end, the twenty-six songs were discussed. In the small book recorded by Liao Liao, Xie Mingyuan and Li Qian agreed that there was only one song that was absolutely used, and there were as many as six spares. Yes, including Jon Bridges's great song, all of them were killed~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Liao Liao's face was lifeless.

From her expression, you can tell that her own works that were anonymously stuffed into these twenty-six songs must have been all killed.

Of course this is something to be sad about!

…………

On the same day, at night, in a mansion in Los Angeles.

A private party party.

When Jon Bridges, with a wine glass in his hand, vividly described the story of the morning when Liao's lover, the Oriental goddess, played the piano and sang a song that made Serena Dunn cry. , Among the people gathered around listening to the story, there was a middle-aged man who looked thoughtful.

When the story was over, the man went over, put his arms around Jon's shoulders, walked to a place where there were relatively few people, and asked, "Hey, Joe, the one you're talking about is the one who made the score for Titanic. Are you humble?"

There are stories and wine, and there are always audiences next to him. Jon was already drinking a little high. Hearing the words, he immediately said: "Yes, it is him! Magical oriental musician!"

The man nodded and said with a smile, "Can you introduce me to another day? You know, I think it would be a good result if the Mr. Qian you mentioned could take over the matter in my hands. "

Jon was stunned for a moment before he realized, "Oh, my God! Disney..."

The man patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Trust me, that movie will definitely impress him! My friend, introduce him to me!"
