At 8:00 p.m. on July 5th, the rankings of the first week of July in China's original music rankings were refreshed on time.
The China Original Music Ranking List, referred to as the Original Music Ranking List, was jointly established by the Chinese Musicians Association and dozens of media such as Feixun Music, Yiwang Music, and popular radio stations. With its professional music attitude, strict review system and credibility Data collection has become a highly authoritative pop music list in China.
The original sound list is published once a week on weekends, ranking the top 50 current domestic pop songs according to the popularity index. The list index is based on the data provided by major music media, including playback, download, on-demand, purchase and other values, converted according to a fixed formula .
Although there is a possibility of human manipulation of the data on the website and the media, the huge amount of data and the way of multi-point collection, coupled with the existence of official power, basically guarantee the fairness and fairness of the original sound list.
Therefore, compared with the various charts launched by different media, the China Original Music Chart is undoubtedly recognized by hundreds of millions of listeners, and is regarded as the No. 1 pop music chart.
The ranking of the original sound chart in the first week of July has not changed much from last week. The biggest highlight is the rapid rise of a band named Wandering on the chart. There are a total of 3 songs on the chart at the same time this week!
Wandering Band "Strong Reason" / Popularity Index: 2044, ranked 47th this week!
Wandering Band "I Want to Have a Home" / Popularity Index: 3505, ranked 29th this week!
Wandering Band "In Spring" / Popularity Index: 5780, ranked 17th this week!
For the majority of music fans, the original sound chart is the best basis for searching for songs. Except for the fans of those singers, most people don’t care much about the data ranking itself. They just follow the trend and listen to whatever song sounds good. .
But in the eyes of people in the circle, the newly released original sound list can see a lot of tricks.
The first is the amazing debut of the band Wandering. As a band that was previously unknown and not many people have heard of, it is undoubtedly a sign of great popularity that three works have hit the original sound chart at the same time.
In fact, "In the Spring" by Wandering Band was already on the list last week, ranking 43rd, and jumped to 17th this week.
And the evaluation of this song is very good, with a like rate of 97.26%.
Those in the industry also noticed a detail that ordinary listeners don't pay much attention to, that is, the three songs of the band Wandering on the charts are all written by the same strange author!
"A Strong Reason" lyrics/music: Lu Chen!
"I Want to Have a Home" lyrics/music: Lu Chen!
"In Spring" lyrics/music: Lu Chen! ! !
Today, when the domestic original force is in a period of decline, the sudden appearance of such a talented songwriter can't help but make many people in the circle use their connections to inquire.
Who is Lu Chen
Therefore, the first week of July in China's original music charts, while making the band popular, also made Lu Chen's name shine for the first time in the circle he was about to enter.
Unfortunately, Lu Chen himself does not know this yet.
In the afternoon of the same day, he rushed to the Blue Sky Creative Park located on the Fifth Ring Road of Beijing.
Blue Sky Creative Park was established 5 years ago. It was specially established by the capital government to support innovative and creative small enterprises. The policy is enlightened and efficient, especially friendly to young entrepreneurs in the capital circle. Therefore, it has attracted a large number of small enterprises and small companies to settle in .
Take Metro Line 9 and get off at Lantian Park Station, and you can see the main gate of the park when you come out.
Wang Changsheng was already waiting for him at the exit.
Lu Chen was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect that the other party would wait for him here. It was really a surprise.
This middle-aged man was met by Lu Chen last time at the Delong Building of Tian Lai Workshop. At that time, the other party solicited him for album production business, which left a deep impression on Lu Chen, and he also had a business card.
Originally, Lu Chen never thought of handing over the production of his first album to this little-known Nirvana studio. His first cooperation partner was the well-known Tianlai Workshop in the industry.
Lu Chen has already listened to the mini-album produced by Tianlai Workshop for Wandering Band, which is very good.
But the appearance of Jin Hongwei from Juxing Company made him change his mind.
Jin Hongwei is the director of Tian Lai Workshop and holds shares in this music production unit, and Lu Chen has completely turned his face with the other party, so how can he put his own album in Tian Lai Workshop for production
So Lu Chen found out Wang Changsheng's business card.
Of course, without knowing the details of the other party, it was impossible for Lu Chen to throw the whole album over hastily. He happened to have an opportunity in front of him, so he took the initiative to contact Wang Changsheng and came over directly.
The manager of Nirvana Studio should have been waiting at the subway entrance for quite a while.
"Mr. Lu, hello!"
Seeing Lu Chen, Wang Changsheng immediately showed a surprised expression, stepped forward and stretched out his hands to him.
"Manager Wang, we meet again."
Lu Chen shook hands with him with a smile, and said, "Please come and pick me up, actually, I can go there by myself."
Wang Changsheng explained: "The Lantian Park is very big. I was worried that you couldn't find a place when I came here for the first time."
Lu Chen felt relieved: "Then let's go."
Since it has not been established for a long time, the buildings in the Blue Sky Creative Park are still very new. Many green trees on both sides of the sidewalk are newly transplanted, and most of the people who come and go in a hurry on the road are young people.
Perhaps because of this, the place feels full of vigor and vitality. Even the shops and restaurants along the street are unique, and the design of the signboard door is very distinctive.
On the way to the studio, Lu Chen chatted with Wang Changsheng.
Through dialogue and exchange, he learned that Wang Changsheng was originally a music teacher in a middle school. He resigned from his teaching position last year and used his life savings to open this Nirvana studio!
For a middle-aged and elderly man in his fifties, Lu Chen was amazed by Wang Changsheng's courage.
You must know that at the age of knowing the destiny, not many people are willing to run out to start a business, especially when they have a stable and comfortable job, especially if they have to spend all their money.
Regarding Lu Chen's admiration, Wang Changsheng smiled wryly: "Actually, I have no choice but for the sake of my children..."
It turns out that Wang Changsheng has two sons and daughters. His daughter graduated from the Composition Department of the Beijing Conservatory of Music two years ago, and his son graduated from the Music Engineering Department of the Northern Conservatory of Music last year. It is for them that this studio was opened.
Music family!
Lu Chen couldn't help being awed.
Zhongyin, Jingyin and Beiyin are the three major music academies in the capital. They are well-known both at home and abroad, and enjoy a high reputation in the world.
But only a few tenths of those who can really be admitted by the three major music schools!
Wang Changsheng's daughter graduated from Jingyin, and his son graduated from Beiyin. As a music teacher, he must devote countless efforts to the cultivation of his children.
How is such a character not worthy of respect? He is completely different from that shrewd businessman.
However, Lu Chen could see that the operating conditions of Nirvana Studio might not be ideal.
Of course he won't talk about it, because it's better to be kind.
Nirvana Studio is located on the seventh floor of an office building in the park. The location is not very good, and the rent is probably cheap enough.
Take the elevator up, turn left when you get out of the elevator, and you will see the logo and guidance marks of the studio on the wall.
Wang Changsheng was very embarrassed: "Our studio has just been established, so the place is not big."
A standard music production unit, including the office area, electronic music room, reception room and the most important recording studio, should not be too small, otherwise it will not be able to be used at all.
From the perspective of scale alone, Nirvana Studio is undoubtedly disappointing.
The small office area is adjacent to the even smaller reception room, and the cramped and limited space makes people feel oppressed. There are only two employees in it, and there is no waiting staff at the door.
Wang Changsheng asked Lu Chen to sit down on the sofa, poured him tea himself, and explained: "I just took an order yesterday, and they are all busy in the recording studio. Let Wang Jing talk to you."
Wang Jing is Wang Changsheng's daughter and the other director of Nirvana Studio.
The arrangement work is all done by her.
