Liu Chaoming, one of the top music producers in China, is only in his sixties this year, but he has produced fifteen legendary records, forty-seven platinum records, and countless classic records.
Old Liu's tunes are enduring, even an old man like Chu Yan has heard his tunes. When he heard that "Cycle" also had Mr. Liu's advice, Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then became more serious.
Every musician regards his own music as his own child. Even if Mr. Liu did not fully participate in the composition and production of "Cycle", this old man must definitely regard "Cycle" as his baby. I'm afraid, as Mr. Liu said, today's recording will not be very easy.
But that's the way it is said, but when Chu Yan went to the recording studio and sat down alone, as soon as he sang the first note, Mr. Liu was slightly taken aback. After Chu Yan sang the audition for the first time, Mr. Liu thought for a while, and said, "It's not bad, the words should be clearer at the beginning of the chorus, and the last part of the chorus, your singing is a bit drawn out. , pay a little attention."
In the dimly lit recording studio, Chu Yan nodded slightly and started the second recording.
The clear and melodious singing voice slowly flowed out from the speakers. Chu Yan's voice has the clear and sonorous youthfulness, but also the tenderness and serenity of youth. His voice is really good, and he has a good grip on exhalation and articulation. If Han Xiao were to listen to this second recording, he would probably feel that it has reached 90%—because it is really good.
Since Mr. Liu agreed to his students to help him record songs for Chu Yan, he was naturally well-prepared. Before coming here, Mr. Liu deliberately went to the cinema to watch "Starlight".
There is another interesting thing here. As Han Xiao's teacher, Mr. Liu has a very "bad" relationship with Mr. Han. The two often ridicule each other, but in fact they regard each other as good friends. So every time after Mr. Han's movie was released, Mr. Liu would wait until the last day to watch it in the cinema. After watching every time, he had to pretend to be calm, saying "such a bad movie, boring!".
The day before, when Mr. Liu went to the movie to watch "Starlight", he was not at all defensive. He only thought that this movie, like Han Lao's previous movies, should talk about some philosophy of life or describe some philosophy of life.
So, caught off guard, Mr. Liu was confused!
After the teary-eyed Mr. Liu came out of the theater, he immediately called Mr. Han and scolded him for making such a movie! It’s fine if you’re a pure heart-abusing movie, but you still have such a perfect and imperfect contrast, it’s really frustrating to him.
All in all, Mr. Liu is also very concerned about "Cycle", and he thought about it several times last night. According to Mr. Liu's thinking, although Chu Yan's "Cycle" sang in the movie can score 80% emotionally, there is a big problem with singing skills, which can only be 70% at most, so it needs to be paid attention to.
But now, listening to the singing on the stereo, Mr. Liu couldn't help but relax his body.
Whether it's the slow and quiet narration in the verse part or the soft and warm words in the chorus part, this boy's technical handling of this song can probably reach a score of 85 points, and even in terms of emotion, he has left the movie screen. Only later did Mr. Liu discover that Chu Yan's feelings were no less pale than his skills.
Being able to make such progress in a short period of time, it is conceivable that this young man must have practiced hard in secret.
In the peaceful and quiet recording studio, only Chu Yan's singing sounded softly. Zhou Hehui carefully looked at Liu Chaoming's expression from the side, and saw that the old senior's expression had changed from serious at the beginning to softer now, and even after Chu Yan was sung by PIA for the fourth time, he nodded approvingly .
Zhou Hehui thought for a while, passed the hot water poured by the little assistant, and while Chu Yan was resting, he said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, you have really worked hard this time. Xiaoyan is still a novice in singing. Please forgive me."
Hearing this, Mr. Liu was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously said, "Novice?"
Zhou Hehui didn't notice anything unusual about Mr. Liu. He nodded and said, "Yes, "Cycle" is Xiaoyan's first single. It's a great honor to invite you to help record it. If you feel dissatisfied with anything, feel free to Said, Xiaoyan also told me in private that he hopes to make a good recording of "Cycle" this time."
Elder Liu exclaimed in a low voice: "You said this is his first song?!"
Zhou Hehui said in a daze, "Yes... yes."
Old Liu's eyes widened, and he looked at Chu Yan over the recording studio with a look of surprise. Across a glass, the handsome and handsome young man nodded slightly, and then made a hand gesture. After barely resting for a few minutes, he began to sing for the fifth time very dedicatedly.
Chu Yan is an actor. Although he has become very popular recently, Mr. Liu doesn't know much about him. But now, someone suddenly told Mr. Liu that this kid who sang fairly well is actually a complete rookie! Even though Chu Yan had experienced Han Xiao's special training, Mr. Liu was still amazed.
This shows that Chu Yan is still very talented in music.
Otherwise, it is impossible to progress so quickly on a piece of music in such a short period of time, and it is even more impossible to experience the emotions hidden under each note.
This day's recording ended sooner than Chu Yan imagined. From the morning to the evening, every time Mr. Han would talk to Chu Yan from big problems to small problems, including sometimes reminding him what kind of feeling he should use to pronounce words, so as to better express the emotions hidden behind the words, Chu Yan benefited a lot.
Mr. Liu hoped that Chu Yan could improve again and again, and gave him a buffer time to study hard. And the Chuyan that he had learned to the end also surprised Mr. Liu. When the sun set slowly and the hazy yellow sunlight shone through the glass of Tiansheng Building into the recording studio, the golden color infiltrated the boy's hair and emerged. A layer of mottled glazed golden light emerges.
Chu Yan slightly closed his eyes, singing seriously and piously.
The sound of each sound is like the reminder of running water, and the fall of each sound is like white clouds disappearing into the sky. His voice is very calm, and his emotions are very gentle, without too much sorrow or joy, he is quietly Statement, even when singing the last line "sixteen years, never change until death", there is only infinite tenderness and countless warm lights.
This is Mr. Liu's understanding of the song "Cycle", which may be different from Han Xiao's, but it is absolutely impossible not to be moved by it.
Liu Lao’s "Cycle" has no hatred, no resentment, only gratitude to all things in the world, even to the person who abandoned himself and made himself stupid for sixteen years.
Only the most pure and pure heart can have such selfless gratitude.
This kind of gratitude made the emotional little assistant wipe away tears, the calm Zhou Hehui's eyes turned red, the serious Liu Chaoming pursed his lips to hold back his tears, and Chu Yan, who was sitting in the recording studio, repeated the last sentence "" I will never change until death", blinking lightly, and silent tears fell.
Su Yuguang is not resentful or sad, but Chu Yan is in pain for him, so Chu Yan will cry.
With the tears falling, applause of "Papa Papa" sounded in the quiet recording studio. Mr. Liu, who had a harsh vision, gave Chu Yan applause, which also meant that he finally recognized this song and the final product of "Cycle".
That night, Chu Yan naturally wanted to invite Mr. Liu to dinner.
At the dinner table, the old man was very serious at first, but after taking a sip of the red wine, Old Liu became drunk in no time. Waiting for Zhou Hehui to send Mr. Liu home, Mr. Liu still held Chu Yan by the corner of his clothes and scolded: "Han Ren heard that bastard! What kind of shit movie did you make! You make me cry every time! I'm never finished with him!" !He's a bastard..."
You ask Mr. Liu's serious, rigid and solemn image? I flew to the sky a long time ago, I can't see it, okay!
Before leaving, Mr. Liu sobered up a little. He still held on to Chu Yan's clothes and said vaguely: "You are fine, you are good at acting, and you are good at singing. I think you are fine, Chu Yan. , do you want to learn to sing with me?"
Chu Yan: "..."
What is going on with this tone of "Young man, you want to learn how to cook with me"!
After a few dry laughs, Chu Yan said seriously: "Old Liu, I mainly want to act."
Old Liu's drunkenness came up again in an instant, he didn't understand what Chu Yan said, and started cursing Old Han again.
That night, Zhou Hehui took a lot of effort to send Mr. Liu home, and the next day Zhou Hehui told Chu Yan with a helpless face: "I heard from colleagues in the circle this morning that it turns out that Mr. Liu always gets drunk when he drinks. Drunk, and also drunk, but after waking up, he can't remember anything, and he still relies on others to slander him."
Chu Yan shook his head helplessly.
After recording the song, Han Xiao asked Zhou Hehui to send the original soundtrack to him, and he would do post-processing in the UK, while Chu Yan started the MV recording.
Zhou Hehui has already negotiated with Mr. Han that the "Cycle" MV will use a large number of "Starlight" shots, and Chu Yan only needs to record some transitional scenes.
Shooting a MV was an overkill for Chu Yan, but in one day, he finished filming the MV for "Cycle". Coupled with Han Xiao's post-processing, it is estimated that it will be released nationwide in about six or seven days.
However, during this period, Chu Yan did not get a rest. Zhou Hehui was still thinking about the endorsement, but he didn't find a very suitable one, but there was a movie that found Chu Yan.
What is surprising is that the role given to Chu Yan in this movie is not the number one male, nor the second male number, and even the third male number may not be guaranteed, but the crew of this movie directly approached the currently popular actress. Chu Yan, a famous first-line artist, hopes that Chu Yan will give them friendship, love, guest, and show.
There is no other reason, just because this movie is called "Three Deceptions".
