"What about this time next year?"
Wu Yong couldn't keep up with Lin Yuan's thoughts for a while.
Lin Yuan did not explain and said directly: "Contact Sun Yaohuo."
"OK… "
Wu Yong turned around quickly.
Gu Dong beside him said faintly: "I'll make the contact."
She felt that the deputy director was trying to steal her job as a junior assistant.
Every time Representative Lin came to the company, the other party would visit the representative's office almost more diligently than himself.
"That's fine."
Wu Yong nodded.
After Wu Yong left, Lin Yuan began to think about the problem.
The people of Qi prefer Qi songs because Qi music is the music they have been exposed to the most since childhood. This is human nature.
With the merger of the three continents of Qin, Qi and Chu, the influence of Qi language seems to be greater than before.
Many Qin and Chu people were also quite receptive to Qi music.
Therefore, on the new song charts every month, there will occasionally be Qi language songs at the top, and even people who don’t understand Qi language like to listen to them.
It can be seen that songs in this language still have a huge market.
Considering that "Ten Years" happened to have a Cantonese version, and Cantonese happened to be the Qi language of Blue Star, Lin Yuan decided:
Why not release the Qi language version of this song, which is "Same Time Next Year"!
Now the question is, when will this song be released
Should I send it this month or next month
never mind.
Just post it this month.
It is already September and the end of the year is getting closer. Lin Yuan wants to promote Sun Yaohuo and Jiang Kui to the top, so he has to race against time.
Releasing "Same Day, Next Year" next month seems like a waste of time.
Besides, there is another benefit to releasing "Next Year Today" this month -
We can take advantage of the momentum of "Ten Years"!
"Ten Years" is so popular now. If a Qi language version is released, it may generate another wave of popularity and enter the Qi language market.
No one stipulates that a songwriter can only release one song a month.
Besides, the melody of "Same Time Next Year" is basically the same as the Mandarin version, only the singing style and lyrics have changed.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan made up his mind.
certainly.
Releasing two songs in the same month is not without its drawbacks.
The biggest disadvantage is that the two songs will appear on the same chart, creating a competitive relationship.
The palm of your hand is made of flesh, and the back of your hand is also made of flesh.
But considering that "Ten Years" was released first and Mandarin has a more far-reaching impact, Lin Yuan did not worry about it.
In terms of popularity, "Ten Years" is definitely stronger.
Not to mention, the release of "Same Time, Next Year" will definitely be delayed for some time.
There is not enough time for it to compete with the Mandarin version in the season rankings.
"I wonder if Senior Yaohuo can speak in unison."
Lin Yuan muttered softly.
This song "This Day Next Year" is sung in Qi language.
For those who don't understand Qi language, if they try to cram at the last minute, time may be a bit tight, and rushing to finish the song will affect the quality of the song.
no way.
If Sun Yaohuo really can't sing Qiyu, "Same Time, Next Year" will have to be sung by someone else.
Lin Yuan remembered that the singing king Lan Yan was very good at Cantonese, and with Lan Yan's ability, he could also handle the song "Same Time Next Year".
Before that, Lin Yuan needed to examine Sun Yaohuo's language talent first.
…
Sun Yaohuo received Gu Dong's notice and soon came to the company.
"Brother, you came to me."
Compared to the last time they met, Sun Yaohuo was obviously in a good mood today, but his eyes were a little red and swollen, so he kept holding an egg in his hand to apply to his eyes.
“Is this fun?”
Lin Yuan looked at Sun Yaohuo's eggs.
Sun Yaohuo was stunned. Before he could think of a reply, Lin Yuan was already shaking his head: "It's definitely not as fun as Transformers."
"What are Transformers?"
Lin Yuan said seriously: "They are from Cybertron, Decepticons? Autobots!"
Sun Yaohuo: “…”
He decided to go back and check the information.
Lin Yuan waved his hand in loneliness: "Senior, you won't understand? Do you know how to speak Qi language?"
Sun Yaohuo nodded: "Yes."
This time it was Lin Yuan's turn to be stunned: "How come you can speak Qi language?"
Sun Yaohuo said as a matter of course: "Because my junior has been to Qizhou."
Lin Yuan was puzzled: "So what?"
Sun Yaohuo scratched his head a little embarrassedly:
"When my junior went to Qizhou, I thought that maybe he needed singers. After all, he didn't know the singers there. Qi songs happened to be popular there, but how could he do it if he didn't speak Qi? So I found someone to learn Qi for half a year. I also planned to go to Qizhou to visit my junior after I learned it. After all, that was what we agreed on at the beginning. But by the time I learned Qi, I hadn't had time to go to Qizhou. Qizhou and Qinzhou merged, and my junior returned to Qinzhou. As a result, I learned a language in vain and couldn't use it."
"It will be useful."
Lin Yuan was somewhat happy.
As for singing? Sun Yaohuo is the most suitable candidate.
Because Sun Yaohuo sang the song "Ten Years" very well.
Although Lan Yan is also good, with the same melody and similar artistic conception, "Same Time Next Year" should of course be sung by Sun Yaohuo!
Sun Yaohuo was at a loss: "What do you mean, junior brother?"
Lin Yuan said: "There is also a Qi language version of "Ten Years"? The melody and other things are similar."
Sun Yaohuo's eyes widened: "Junior, do you want me to sing another Qi version?"
Lin Yuan nodded.
Sun Yaohuo clapped his hands and said in Qi language: "I have learned Qi language for half a year and have also studied Qi language songs. It should be no problem!"
"Yes, yes."
Lin Yuan spoke in Qi language, then thought about it and felt that this sentence did not seem to be Qi language.
never mind.
unimportant.
Lin Yuan took out the lyrics of "This Day Next Year" and said, "Then get ready. Here are the lyrics. Familiarize yourself with them and finish recording the song as soon as possible."
Sun Yaohuo paused and said, "Junior, do you hope to release the Qi language version this month?"
"Yes."
"That's fine. Although time is a bit tight, I have my junior here, so it's okay to delay a little. Airdropping is not a problem."
Sun Yaohuo couldn't help but take over the lyrics of "Same Time Next Year" and tried to sing a few lines.
After listening a little, Lin Yuan knew that Sun Yaohuo was not bragging.
Sun Yaohuo can really sing, and he sings very well!
Anyway, with ears like Lin Yuan's, he couldn't tell any difference between Sun Yaohuo's singing and Qi Ren's singing.
If he didn't know Sun Yaohuo, he would even think that Sun Yaohuo was from Qi.
"I'm going to go record practice first. I'll be staying in the company for the next few days."
Sun Yaohuo took the music score and said goodbye to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan agreed.
Turning around and closing the office door for Lin Yuan, Sun Yaohuo couldn't help but smile and clenched his fists tightly.
Then, he was suddenly startled.
It turned out that the music score was a little crumpled by his force just now, and he carefully flattened it and blew on it like a treasure.
"Teacher Sun, take care."
Someone from the composition department greeted me with a smile.
Sun Yaohuo smiled back, as if he hadn't heard any gossip at all the last time he came here.
And in the office.
Gu Dong, who witnessed the whole conversation between the two, was suddenly deeply touched by an old saying -
Opportunities often only come to those who are prepared.
