Qian Jinyun looked confused. He looked at Chen Minhao, shook his head and said, "Brother Chen, I've never heard of it. What does this mean?"
Chen Minhao said with a smile: "There are so many ethnic minorities in our country, so we can focus on the musical instruments of ethnic minorities! There are no bass instruments in ordinary traditional musical instruments, but there may not be no suitable choices for ethnic minority instruments.
And to take a step back, Chinese style does not mean that Western musical instruments are completely isolated from use. We can also use guitars and cellos. If we don’t use Western instruments for the so-called Chinese style, I think this is too childish an interpretation of Chinese style. "
Qian Jinyun looked in agreement and said, "Brother Chen, do you have any musical instruments you recommend?"
Chen Minhao said frankly: "Actually, I don't know much about music theory, so I can only give you suggestions on the direction. You can explore the specific details by yourself."
The reason why Chen Minhao decided to speak frankly was because Qian Jinyun just said that there is no bass instrument in traditional musical instruments, which made Chen Minhao understand the gap in his vision.
Chen Minhao took a deep breath and thought of what Teacher Shi Jiazhi said a few days ago. There is a priority in learning and specialization in skills. It is actually okay to admit one's shortcomings.
However, Qian Jinyun looked unconvinced: "Brother Chen, if you don't understand music theory, how can you give me so many pointers? Brother Chen, you are just too humble."
Chen Minhao smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, you can go back and do it yourself. I won't get involved in the specific details."
Of course, I don't have the ability to interfere in the details. Chen Minhao mentally added to himself.
Qian Jinyun sighed: "Chen Minhao, you are so kind. I worked as an arranger for Li Mingda some time ago. He doesn't know anything, and he likes to point fingers. I think he is very difficult to serve. Even Haidilao can't serve him. That kind of person is difficult to maintain."
Chen Minhao originally thought that it would take Qian Jinyun a week to complete the demo of the accompaniment of "Fireworks Easily Cold". However, the next afternoon, that is, at noon on Thursday, when Chen Minhao was having lunch, the phone rang and Qian Jinyun called. ,explain:
"Brother Chen, do you have time this afternoon? I've finished the demo of the arrangement."
The first time Chen Minhao saw Qian Jinyun, he noticed the dark circles under his eyes and the raised hair on his head: "Brother Chen, please listen to this version again. After I finished talking to you yesterday, I directly found two people who understand Friends of Chime and Dabo, rearrange the music.”
Chen Minhao said in surprise: "You are moving too fast! You didn't sleep all night, right?"
"Why sleep for a long time while alive? You will sleep forever after death." Qian Jin used his right hand to press the raised hair on the top of his head and said, "Brother Hao, please listen to it first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he carefully took the mp3 out of his bag and handed it to Chen Minhao. Chen Minhao sang it directly in his mind and found that it was in perfect harmony with the melody in his heart.
Yesterday, Qian Jinyun completed the arrangement of "Fireworks Easily Cold" in less than a week. Compared with himself, a rising star in the music industry who does not live up to his reputation and can only do music delivery, Qian Jinyun is a truly talented player.
Chen Minhao did not directly comment on the quality of the arrangement. Instead, he asked with a smile: "What are your future plans?"
"First change "Fireworks Easily Cold" until you are satisfied, Brother Chen, and then finish the arrangement of "Thousands of Miles Away"."
"And after that?"
Qian Jinyun asked in confusion: "Aren't you going to put two more songs on this album?"
"What about after finishing the album?"
"Uh. I didn't think about it."
"Have you considered joining my team? I just focus on my arrangement. Of course, my manager will also help you with some tasks, but he will help you exclude difficult-to-maintain singers like Li Mingda mentioned yesterday. "
Qian Jinyun's words suddenly became stammering: "I, I, can I? Brother Chen, I'm worried that I can't keep up with you and hold you back!"
Chen Minhao smiled and said: "Actually, after arranging these songs, I think you are very capable and talented."
Qian Jinyun was reserved with a little pride, and said: "Actually, I really think that I have no musical talent. Although I have some minor achievements in music, it is not because of musical talent. It's just that I can feel "perfect" "What kind of thing is it, and then find the distance between yourself and it."
Damn, you are more pretentious than me. I know the distance between myself and my "perfection". Isn't this a sense of joy? What more
Chen Minhao asked calmly: "Then are you willing to join my team?"
Qian Jinyun said: "As long as you don't dislike me, Brother Chen, of course I am willing, because I think you are very powerful, Brother Chen, and I can learn a lot from you."
That night, after the rehearsal, Chen Minhao sent Kang Hui the news that the arrangement of "Fireworks Easily Cold" had been finalized and that he had invited Qian Jinyun to join the studio.
After Kang Hui finished listening, he paused and sighed: "He is really beyond his appearance."
"Sister Kang, don't say this in front of him!"
"Of course I know. You think I'm stupid!"
On Friday morning, Chen Qiang drove Kang Hui and Chen Minhao to the recording studio early. After Chen Minhao recorded a few songs, he became more and more familiar with the recording process.
Wu Hongrong originally had some doubts about the traditional Chinese musical instruments used in the arrangement, but when Chen Minhao started singing along with the music, Wu Hongrong felt that he was really old and that the future world might be for young people. Got:
The integration of erhu and pipa and the retro style of music make it easy for people to enter the world and reverie of Tang poetry and Song lyrics. Chen Minhao's R&B is quite innovative: its jump, blue, tones, and versatility are well integrated with traditional instruments.
Wu Hongrong praised Qian Jinyun without hesitation: "Xiao Qian, the arrangement of this song is very good!"
Qian Jinyun said modestly: "Actually, Brother Chen is the better composer, and Brother Hao gave me a lot of inspiration in the arrangement."
Chen Minhao widened his eyes and asked in confusion: "Inspiration, what inspiration do I give you? I told you yesterday that I really don't know anything about arranging."
"Oh, we are all our own people. Brother Chen, don't you have to be so humble?"
Chen Minhao is about to cry but has no tears. Let me go. Even if I maintain my character, I will have to learn music theory in the future.
At noon on Friday, when Chen Minhao went to eat, Wu Hongrong rubbed his temples and replied to Luo Tianyi and Kang, saying: "I know the quality of this song is very high. The lyrics are good and the music is good, but I worry a lot. People can’t hear the awesomeness of this song. Nowadays, the popular music scene is all about mouth-watering songs, but the lyrics of this song are antique, and even the arrangement uses traditional instruments. I’m worried that the audience may not be able to accept it.”
Kang Hui lifted his bangs and said: "The first person to eat crabs may not be good, but we can't stop eating crabs because of choking, let's stop Chen Minhao from eating crabs."
Luo Tianyi thought carefully for dozens of seconds and said: "The market will definitely accept it. Even if the audience can't understand this song now, what does it matter? Time will eventually prove everything. I think Chen Minhao is as beautiful as the morning stars." , dazzling and gorgeous yet stable and plain.”
Kang Hui glanced at Luo Tianyi with a strange look, and finally opened his mouth but said nothing.
