Chapter 213 Liao Liao's Cleverness
The age of the Internet has come.
Li Qian had foreseen this a long time ago, but when this day really hit his face, he still felt a little sudden.
In fact, in those days when he first came to this time and space, Li Qian had a lot of concerns about the sudden inability to scan WeChat and chat on QQ on mobile phones, the crude functions of current mobile phones, and the various awkward screen resolutions. Difficult to get used to for a long time. The same is true for computers.
Therefore, Father Li had repeatedly considered buying a computer for Li Qian, but Li Qian's attitude had always been neither in favor nor against. In the end, Father Li didn't buy it until he left home and came to Shuntian Mansion to go to school. office was established and began to purchase office equipment, Qi Jie naturally wanted to equip Li Qian's office with a computer, but Li Qian thought about it, and still refused. I don't think it will bring me any so-called convenience.
He always felt that the era of computer technology he was familiar with had not yet come.
Until today, he suddenly discovered QQ and discovered Legend.
In a trance, many memories rushed to my face.
So next, regardless of how Liao Liao protested, questioned, or frustrated, Li Qian unswervingly used her account to play a legend, and it took more than half an hour to enjoy it before going offline.
As for how Li Qian, who has almost never touched a computer, is so proficient in it, this question is close to unsolvable, and fortunately, Liao Liao will not dwell on these questions.
On the contrary, after the initial surprise, when Li Qian was playing games, she was giving directions and yelling, feeling even more excited than Li Qian who was playing games.
Of course, for Li Qian, playing this game again is just a certain degree of nostalgia. It is really impossible for him to play as much as he did when he was in school, so he has almost nothing to do. I'm interested in discussing with Liao Liao about technical issues in this area. His main task in coming to the studio today is to discuss with Liao Liao and a few people from the production department of the studio to set the tone for Liao Liao's new album.
Of course, he and Liao Liao were the ones who set the tone.
Today's Liao Liao is the undisputed top spot in the domestic music scene.
Zhen Zhen, He Runqing and Feng Feifei among the female singers, including Wu Xingwusu and Li Junru who are newly emerging, Liu Mingliang and Hu Yang among the male singers, including Huang Yuqing, who has become popular recently, all have to bow down to her.
Moreover, this is not just about sales, even when it comes to singing skills, Liao Liao is still at the top.
To sum it up, her approach to the past two albums mainly includes three sections.
The first is of course popular songs, including the so-called Chinese style, which is actually a part of popular songs.
The second is folk songs, especially her second album "The Sound of the Waves Still", which contains several classic ballads. On the one hand, this made her a breakthrough in her singing skills, so that she was considered the most exciting "classic female voice" in the domestic music scene; Broad song road positioning.
As for the third, it is rock and roll. It includes light rock such as "Perseverance", "Wild Flower", and "Cheers, Friends" in "Liao Liao", as well as purer rock and roll such as "Come Back" in "The Sound of the Waves Still".
Frankly speaking, the main force that makes Liao Liao's albums so popular is actually pop. After all, this music scene is called the pop music scene. No matter folk songs or rock songs, although each has enough audiences, but only Going one way, but it is still a minority, only with the support of popular works, can Liao Liao's song path be expanded to the widest extent, and the audience can also be expanded to the largest extent.
Therefore, for Liao Liao's new album, Li Qian's main idea is still the same: a few popular songs to increase sales, a few folk songs, and a few rock songs to win the hearts of niche fans and increase the thickness of the entire album and texture.
Of course, there is a point of consideration that Li Qian himself is still hesitating.
That is, whether to push Liao Liao to the path of Cai Qin in another time and space.
It is not impossible to push. Liao Liao has that foundation and strength, and Li Qian also has that resource. If he wants to go the way of audition Tiandie, it can be said that there is no problem at all.
However, in that case, the weight of folk songs in her new album will definitely be increased. In this way, the pop feeling of the whole album will appear slightly insufficient, and if the pop feeling is insufficient, it will first affect the , it must be the sales volume - the reality is like this, the words of high and low are not just for fun.
Liao Liao is also singing, is she singing pop songs that will be popular in the streets and alleys as soon as she comes out, or is she singing more textured, thicker, and warmer, but it is not easy to win immediately Most of the ballads in the heart of ordinary fans, reflected in sales, for Liao Liao, it is estimated that there will be a gap of millions, or even millions.
And considering that the studio has just been established, although there is still He Runqing, she must transform. The new album is actually more dangerous than Liao Liao. Said only Liao Liao. Considering that the current studio does not have its own distribution system, the profits from producing the album itself will be greatly exploited. Therefore, for the studio, the risk of producing a folk-style album at this juncture is huge. will be bigger.
However, the album is Liao Liao's album, and the way is Liao Liao's way. No matter what the risk is, since Li Qian has considered it, he must bring it up. The specific choice must be left to Liao Liao.
Li Qian was unwilling and disdainful to force Liao Liao to sing pop songs for commercial considerations.
However, when Li Qian finished playing the game and started talking about serious business with Liao Liao, he just mentioned this topic, without even analyzing the pros and cons of doing so, Liao Liao had already made the final decision——
"Don't do folk songs! At least for this album, I still have to follow the pop style! I like folk songs very much, and I like rock songs very much, but this album... let's continue the idea of the previous one. If it is more folk songs or rock songs If it’s too strong, word of mouth may be higher, but it’s not good for sales. My album is probably the first work of the studio, so sales are still number one, and I have to be responsible for firing the first shot!”
Li Qian was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, he just nodded slowly when he heard the words, but didn't speak.
Liao Liao is a smart man.
Even, in Li Qian's opinion, among all the people he knows, her IQ is enough to rank in the top three.
After coming to this time and space, Li Qian met and got in touch with so many people, including talented people like Cao Zhan, rich second-generations like Xie Mingyuan and Yu Bojun who have both family background and ability, and even Chen Changsheng who made a fortune from scratch. He Runqing, who has sung from a mountain girl to a generation of queens, but when it comes to intelligence, Li Qian really doesn't think anyone can surpass Liao Liao.
The so-called smartness does not necessarily mean that you need to make any innovations, nor does it necessarily mean that you have to behave differently.
In Li Qian's view, the so-called smartness is to be like Liao Liao, who can always make the smartest and most correct decisions at critical moments, so that everyone around can follow her wishes and command.
When she was penniless back then, when she first met her, she immediately paid a "sky-high price". Of course, this can show that Liao Liao knows the goods, and her ability to identify and appreciate songs is very human, but on the other hand, Said, for such a simple "sky-high price", she moved herself on the one hand, and forced Chen Changsheng on the other hand. In the end, she achieved her goal as she wished. In Li Qian's view, this is simply a model of the so-called killing two birds with one stone.
Then at the Golden Melody Awards Ceremony, she directly flipped the table with arrogance, which was naturally also her brilliant stroke in dealing with people, which need not be elaborated.
Including the fact that in the last six months, she decided to leave Changsheng Records and not renew her contract. It is said that at this time, an artist who has just become popular for a year or two will break up with the company that discovered and cultivated her. Happy, small will affect the artist's reputation in the industry to a certain extent, and large may cause discord between the two parties, which will end in a tearful relationship. But for Liao Liao, this kind of thing was easily settled by her with fifteen commercial performances.
Unhappy, she unexpectedly left Changsheng Records smoothly, and even if she left, Chen Changsheng would still think of her well - this is not something ordinary artists can do.
But now, when it comes to her new album, she has already considered everything Li Qian wanted to say before Li Qian finished speaking, and then made a decision with one word, directly blocking all the rest of Li Qian's words. went back.
In particular, she almost completely considered this matter from Li Qian's position!
Are you smart?
clever!
Of course, Liao Liao has always been like that. When talking about business, she is smarter than anyone else, almost in the blink of an eye. She has already considered the pros and cons of a matter, but you If you want to expect her to sit there and discuss issues with you in a serious manner...don't even think about it.
For example, she just made an important decision on her front foot, but she came over on her back foot, pretending to be enchanting, sat down next to Li Qian, and threw a few winking eyes at her, "Hey, handsome guy , play board games with me?"
Li Qian looked sideways.
It should be said that compared to Li Qian's nervousness and awkwardness from head to toe that day, when faced with Liao Liao's seduction today, his performance immediately seemed much calmer—it doesn't matter how old you are mentally, as long as you are still young. Male, then you must have no confidence, and the ability to resist temptation is definitely not good!
For example, today, after Li Qian glanced at her sideways, he could already calmly say: "Do you know that you are really not suitable for flirting, but you are the most beautiful when you are dignified. You If you don’t talk about it and sit there, you will naturally be majestic and beautiful, and if you wink, your image score will drop by half!"
Hearing this, Liao Liao put away his smile, pursed his lips, and glared.
Li Qian curled his lips and shrugged, "I'm speaking from my heart."
Liao Liao glanced at the door—the little assistant was very sensible, and knew that the two of them were going to hook up, so he had already left.
So Liao Liao didn't even have the slightest scruples, turned over, and just like that night, rode on Li Qian again, looked down at him, and continued to glare, "Do you want me to ask Xiaojie to borrow clothes and give you some uniforms to seduce you?" What?"
Li Qian was unmoved and looked at her calmly.
If there is one person in this world besides Liao's father, Liao's mother and a certain Ermin who makes Liao Liao helpless and always feels guilty, it must be Li Qian.
At this moment, Li Qian was unmoved, and she immediately lost her mind.
After a while, she finally couldn't bear it anymore, put away the terrible acting skills on her face, leaned down, and asked in a low voice: "Hey, tell me the truth, after you left that night, do you regret it?"
Li Qian looked at her, smiled, thought about it, smiled again, and said seriously: "Give me some time, okay? Let me sort out these things. It's a bit messy recently. Besides, I don't Make sure I can really do it well."
I don't know if Li Qian's expression and tone were too sincere, or because Li Qian's words that night made Liao Liao feel scruples. After all, she really wanted to make some achievements in music. With her Smart, of course she understands what Li Qian said that night is indeed a big problem, so at this time, seeing what Li Qian said, she thought about it and could only nod her head.
... ... ...
Li Qian, Liao Liao, Sun Meimei, and a few people from the production department sat in the conference room. After a brief communication, they quickly finalized the style of Liao Liao's new album.
In principle, the style is certain, and it must actively accept manuscripts from the outside world. However, the studio is currently in a bad situation and has been receiving intentional or unintentional boycotts from the entire Shuntianfu record industry recently. It was recently established, and its contacts in the industry are relatively poor, and there are not many contacts with freelance musicians who are not controlled by major record companies. confidence.
After all, before the style is determined, the studio has already asked some musicians who can be contacted to make an appointment. Among them, there are not many who even verbally agree, and none of them are famous musicians.
So, at the end of the day, even though the style is finalized, I will definitely continue to accept manuscripts and invite songs from outsiders. However, it is estimated that Li Qian will be responsible for Liao Liao's first album in the studio. Round.
But fortunately, Li Qian has long been mentally prepared for this, and in fact, he has a lot of resources in his hand, among which are suitable for a nearly all-round singer like Liao Liao. It may be missing, so on the second day, he took out three works, on the one hand, handed them to Liao Liao, let her start practicing songs, on the other hand, asked the production department to start making at least three arrangements, for final selection.
Of course, Li Qian will definitely give his own arrangement, but he never thinks that he is the best, nor does he think that the original arrangement in another time and space in his impression must be the best, so, since Signed professional musicians, of course they have to play their due role.
With Liao Liao's album, it happens to be able to practice soldiers.
