Chapter 210 Comparison First! (Please subscribe ~ monthly pass!)
If you use one word to describe Qin Shengrong and Song Yumeng.
That is "shivering".

Needless to say, Li Shaojie.

The fact that Wu Junyou was directly exposed to the collapse of the house before is still vivid in my memory.

Although I am not a false creator, but my foundation is not stable, I will still be a little timid.

And teacher Gao Huijie
Qin Shengrong and Song Yumeng could still be regarded as being from majors.

At least they have received systematic education in the Conservatory of Music.

But at this time, the teacher Gao Huijie beside him seemed to bring them back to their college days.

It was as if I saw the tutor knocking on the table again, scolding me for being a pig brain, and helping me revise my thesis.

dare not speak.

And the feeling of the singer-songwriters is no better than these two.

How could a variety show with a singer-songwriter competition suddenly become the Baichuan Award + Youth Song Competition?
The pressure surged.

The recording went on like this.

Of course, although the players were a little worried about whether the requirements of the game were higher, it was actually okay.

Regardless of Li Shaojie or Gao Huijie, the requirements for variety shows are actually not high.

There is only one baseline level of "nice," "great," and "okay."

At the very least, you must have a certain degree of professionalism.

After all, the threshold for composing pop music is actually very low.

There is a very interesting phenomenon in the pop music world.

It was okay before, but since 16, pop songs with a certain degree of enthusiasm have been really sung, and their creators are more and more "non-scientific" composers, and more and more have not been trained in the system. Composers in training blaze.

Many people always think that "composers who are not majors are more down-to-earth, close to the public, and close to life", "students from majors will be bound by rules, and students from non-major classes will be able to display their talents better", "masters are among the people" and so on.

"talent".

"Ungrounded".

It is undeniable that such problems do exist.

But in fact, this is just a cognitive bias caused by "survivor bias".

The dividing line between subjects and non-subjects is not actually academic qualifications.

It's about where the knowledge is placed, whether you have learned it, whether you have used it, and whether it can be used well.

Sometimes, if the students in the majors don't work hard, they end up mixing in the circle with half a bottle of water, and they will also become "non-graduates" and create fast food commercial music.

It is not impossible for players who are not majors to work hard to improve, learn the knowledge of majors and use it properly.

After all, there are always non-professional players who, with the double blessing of hard work and talent, are no worse than the professional class, and even the works have to be studied by the professional class students.

But too little.

There are a lot of non-scientific music lovers, and more try to compose.

But there are obviously more people rushing to the street.

The ability of more non-professional composers is actually not strong. Sometimes it is difficult to maintain one's heart with an open mind and make progress after the money is just right. The fame is getting bigger and bigger, but the works are getting worse and worse. Made a not-so-good aesthetic guide.

Some non-professional composers, even if they are well-known, can only write a single melody, which just satisfies the requirement of the vast majority of listeners to "only listen to the melody".

The general public doesn't know and doesn't care. The single melody writing method is actually just an introduction.

Therefore, the so-called "masters" among the people in the public perception are actually beginners in the industry as a whole.

The speed of aesthetic improvement is completely different from the technological development of the industry, leading to a growing gap.

This also leads to a worse compatibility between business and art, or even separation.

Again.

There are many things that the public can ignore, because it is not necessary for everyone to understand knowledge to listen to music, and everyone listens to music according to their preferences.

But musicians have to think about it.

Takeaway fast food is simple and delicious, so everyone likes it.

Some fine dining is troublesome, but even better.

The definition of "food" cannot be placed at the level of takeaway just because everyone likes takeaway fast food.

Pop music should be simple, fast and delicious, taking into account nutrition and health, and try to make it more delicious.

It is not to fool people with rice stewed meat buns and a microwave oven, let alone some smelly fried chicken, just saying "it's good enough" or "market demand" and other issues.

There are not many professional players, and more of them exist in other music industries, such as many arrangers and harmony, which involve the creation of "multi-part" lines, which require solid musical form analysis and harmony. foundation.

A very simple question.

Many people have also criticized "China does not have blockbuster brilliant music" before.

In fact, it’s not unheard of, it’s even fierce, it’s just that people don’t know about it, after all, you can’t get tired of listening to complicated things, and there are more atmospheric and brilliant ones, but the audience is small.

And those composers who can write operas, symphonic suites, magnificent scores, and majestic musical poems
Almost all of them came from majors.

This has become two extremes with fashion.

And they seldom write, or are too lazy to write, or simply can't write popular things that can spread like crazy.

The reason is actually very simple.

The knowledge taught by the class is broader and deeper, and the musical thinking and philosophy involved will also be deeper. These things will make composers out of the "popular aesthetic" to a certain extent.

For example, if you write a single melody, it is clear that the public thinks your melody is very pleasant and has the qualifications of fire, but the aesthetics precipitated by deeper knowledge will make the composer feel very monotonous.

As a result, weaving body, harmony, and enriching the level of the entire music, the work gradually began to deviate from the public.

Such a situation does not only exist in "coban".

Many non-subjects know how to accumulate and study, and finally improve their strength to the same level as the "tops of the subject", or even some stronger masters, will also encounter this problem.

For example, some milk tea.

Every time a song is released, it is "exhausted". Every time a song is released, it makes people feel more and more regressive. Every time a song is released, there are people who "are not as good as old songs".

But in fact, after a few years, with more knowledge, wider experience, and improved aesthetics, I finally exclaimed, "What kind of fairy is this?"
-
No one is willing to admit that their aesthetics are low, and no one dares to say that their aesthetics are high.

[You elegant things continue to be noble, I am a layman, I don't understand. 】

The final compromise can only be attributed to the so-called "preferences".

But they are unwilling to discuss how to expand their horizons, improve their knowledge and thinking, and then improve their "aesthetics", thereby further improving their spiritual and moral levels.

It's like the saying "Chinese departments can't train writers".

It can motivate the industry, but it cannot be regarded as an established fact, otherwise it can only reflect the huge gap between the public understanding and the real industry. If it is true, it can only show ignorance.

In the development of human beings, aesthetics should have evolved.

Now there is a tendency to go backwards.

It is precisely because of this "gap".

The Conservatory of Music has gradually opened the major of popular composition.

How to guide the public to improve their aesthetics in the simplest way with professional quality.

At least don't let the development of music and people's aesthetic speed get out of balance again, leading to a bigger gap.

It's something that musicians think about.

You can't "just as long as the public likes it, regardless of whether it is professional or not", because the public can have preferences, but they don't understand your professional stuff, and there is no need to understand it.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to use "fake" things to fool the public and make the public feel that "this is the right one".

Li Shaojie and Gao Huijie who are musicians.

Naturally, I understand these things better, and I am working hard for them.

Art requires height, but it also needs to be down-to-earth.

Therefore, in recent years, more and more national team players have begun to go to the people and participate in it, which has also allowed more audiences to feel the deeper and more advanced "aesthetics".

Aesthetics is very simple. It is nothing more than related to people's outlook on life, values, thoughts, and even the living environment.

The purpose of improving aesthetics is not "tallness", but from the perspective of first sensibility, to let people see broader things, which in turn helps people improve their thoughts, values, and outlook on life.

Then gain ideas, gain strength, and get a better and better living environment from it, to face life, enjoy life, praise life, and even change life.

Therefore, the popularization of art is urgent.

In fact, it is not difficult to want to be "popular".

"Emotional" vibes.

At least, singer-songwriters with solid basic abilities have more and better choices in the technical space of music itself.

It's not just relying on the lyrics, or the negative energy of being sad for the sake of being sad.

Li Shaojie and Gao Huijie naturally saw these things clearly.

As a good musician, you must consider these things.

In the case of ensuring "basic professional quality", it is closer to life.

It can be more "trendy", but not so "trendy" that the public can't accept it.

Regarding these issues, during the few days of recording, Li Shaojie would communicate with Gao Huijie at the end of the recording.

During the exchange, we talked a lot.

Discussions between each other can almost write many academic papers.

Seeing Song Yumeng and Qin Shengrong next to him go from dumbfounded to numb.

I understand, but only a little
"Actually, I'm not that strict about creative things."

Li Shaojie smiled slightly.

"Creation is a free thing, but first, the creator must first understand what he is doing."

"Hey, the basic things have now become a pass line."

Gao Huijie pouted.

"Actually, it's not a big problem, it's just that we need to come up with something better, and this better thing must be more accessible."

"Ah."

Li Shaojie nodded.

"I have tried a lot of things before, and now I have a little bit of a clue, but the road is still long, so take your time, I have a lot of good ideas to try in this variety show, and make some weird fusions .”

Gao Huijie didn't think Li Shaojie's words were bragging about NB.

In the eyes of many people, although opera has high connotation, high artistic level and high technology.

But it's too "high-end" and "elegant" so I don't understand it, and I don't want to listen.

But Li Shaojie's "Yimeng Mountain" has actually shortened the distance between ordinary audiences and "art". This opera is not only technically breakthrough, but the threshold for appreciation has been lowered considerably.

Unfortunately, the threshold still exists.

"Actually, my thinking is different from yours."

Li Shaojie looked at Gao Huijie and said.

"I also said in the previous exchange that this threshold is not for the audience to understand, let alone give a standard answer for the audience to memorize. It cannot be emphasized to let the audience understand these things."

Gao Huijie was thoughtful.

Just listen to Li Shaojie continue.

"Actually, my direction of thinking is closer to giving the audience a first experience. If the first experience is strong, then the threshold for appreciation will naturally become lower."

"Actually, it is not to ask the audience to increase their appreciation ability, nor is it to say that they must understand, but to improve a basic empathy. Creating empathy can also be better considered from the logic of the music itself."

"Hmm, not bad."

Gao Huijie nodded.

If you think about the songs that can become popular, they must be either simple enough for most people to sing, or the degree of empathy and the content of the work are closer to the public.

Don't worry about whether the work can be understood, but how to let people experience the "coolness" of listening for the first time!
If you want to create such a work, you naturally need to find a group of singer-songwriters who have both basic professionalism and a unique creative approach or expressive ability to understand the emotion of the work.

During this time, several people have a clear division of labor.

In terms of judging, Gao Huijie focused on the emotion of the music.

What Li Shaojie is responsible for is to ensure the most basic creative quality while being down-to-earth, starting from the essence of "creation" that carries emotions.

The judging responsibility is taken from two angles.

And Qin Shengrong and Song Yumeng transformed into the "atmosphere" and "funny" in the jury.

Energize the atmosphere and increase the sense of variety.

Then it's okay to translate.

"Wait, Brother Jie, you just said that you want to do some weird fusion?"

Qin Shengrong scratched his head and noticed the blind spot.

"wouldn't have been"

"Well, the players who joined my team are very distinctive. After some communication, they are willing to try different things."

Li Shaojie nodded and smiled.

"Anyway, I guess, it's either an explosion or an explosion."

"Either we blow ourselves up where we are, or"

Speaking of this, Li Shaojie's smile changed, which immediately made several people's hearts jump.

"The team ranking match recorded the day after tomorrow, you have to be careful. Although the preparation of our program is not stable, it is very explosive."

"hiss!"

Li Shaojie's words made several people raise their eyebrows.

In fact, the protagonists of the team's qualifying competition are still the four mentors.

Optional players also need to be assisted from the side.

How to arrange the position of each player is very critical.

How to design a program is inherently difficult.

But Brother Jie also said that he played tricks and did some musical experiments.

What do you think?

But here comes the problem, this person is Brother Jie.

Gao Huijie raised her eyebrows.

Anyway, I don't know what's behind, but at least the protagonist is the mentor's team qualifying match, so it's hard to win!

"Hey, what are you thinking about so much?"

Li Shaojie pouted.

"Comparison first!"
-
　Uh, what I wrote yesterday may be a bit controversial, let me talk about it here.

　　First of all, there is no need for book friends to quarrel, and indeed there is no need to blindly believe me. After all, I am writing a novel. I want to restore the facts as much as possible, but sometimes exaggerating is possible for the sake of refreshment.

　　If you have any questions, just say so, let’s discuss it together, there’s nothing wrong with it.

　　First of all, this is not a rescue, because the variety show has not even been publicized yet, and it is only in the early stage. If there is a problem, there is no need to rush to replace it. It is not "a few episodes have been shown", but the sudden personnel change is very urgent.

　　Um. Secondly, even if it is a rescue.

　　If you take advantage of the fire to rob, the lion will open his mouth, which is also a serious professional and moral problem.

　　For example, the original heroine of Wu Jing in Wolf Warrior II, if it was exposed at the first time, she would have been sprayed to death.

　　The teacher Gao Huijie I wrote was also rejected immediately.

　　Promise is not just for the protagonist.

　　There is nothing wrong with relaxing, making money, and engaging in traffic.

　　Artists are actually not as profitable as traffic, and there is nothing to say about making money based on their strength.

　　The market determines the demand, but in fact the market is not a "program group", nor is the demand a "program group". The demand that determines the market price lies with the public, and the artist's appearance fee is related to "worth".

　　The social value is the commercial value, and 80% of the commercial value is determined by the traffic.

　　Wang Jiaer 260W for a commercial performance, Aaron Kwok is about the same price, Joker Xue 300W.

　　Can you judge who is stronger from "worth"?
　　Teacher Gao Jin 40W Sa Ding Ding 45 Jin Zhiwen 45, the sum is less than Cai Xukun, Cai Xukun 180W.
　　But compared with several teachers, it is p
