abnormal musician

Chapter 427 What kind of magical unfolding is this? (Please subscribe ~ monthly pass!)
Of course, it was Li Shaojie, the music director, who was in charge of the subsequent planning.

This series of activities is just to warm up.

Same as ever.

However, the project time is still long, and Li Shaojie is not in a hurry.

Now Li Shaojie, all he can think about is to go to the beautiful country and turn the pop music scene in the beautiful country upside down! !

of course.

It still needs to be linked with the lot company.

As far as the lot company is concerned, although it is a game company, it is nicknamed a music company because of its amazing music.

For so long, various styles of music have been tried.

I have also played in girl groups, idol groups, hip-hop, Korean-American pop, electronic
These are virtual idol groups that fit heroes.

The lot company is naturally not satisfied with just playing virtual games.

To open a way to formally enter the entertainment industry in the beautiful country, the lot company needs to spend quite a lot of resources.

It may even make the top management feel that the cart has put the cart before the horse.

However, this step of development from "cooperative customer guests" to "competitors" must be taken.

So, how can we be safest and pay the lowest price?

Very simple.

Find a big boss from NB and go to a variety show.

Moreover, there just happened to be a good variety show, which was very suitable.

"American singer-songwriter".

Sounds outrageous, but it's actually the best option.

Popular music?

It's not something you can do if you want to.

Especially in the beautiful country.

The most important resources, channels, are almost monopolized by several fixed bosses.

Do you want to be in the pop music business?

Let's not talk about production.

You must have a distribution channel, right? !
You must have a promotional channel, right? !
If you want to enter the market, these things are essential.

But the lot company has a Jiedi that is enough to meet any production needs.

Nothing else really.

In the past, it was all paid as a customer after paying a certain price!

If you want to get in, you can imagine the price you pay.

So, instead of throwing away money in such a rough and violent way, it's better to become an artist yourself and directly participate in variety shows. Have creative guidance, or cooperate with famous singers.

These things are not what the lot company is looking for, nor are they what Li Shaojie needs.

What is needed is the subsequent publicity and distribution resources.

Moreover, the variety show itself is a very good publicity channel.

As for the musical form
Sure enough, the band is better.

The reason why I want to start an independent band is also after thinking.

One reason is that, in Europe and the United States, indie bands or pop bands can indeed develop well, and the audience is definitely not low.

The key is
Li Shaojie is a Chinese.

Going solo directly will definitely have some disadvantages in career development.

It's like domestic.

Foreign celebrities often come to collect money.

Of course, once or twice is fine.

Or cooperate with local entertainment capital to create a new cake and let people have a bite.

But how can you not leave the country once you see it?

How can there be a "protection fee" that squeezes into the market without wanting to pay?
Laugh to death.

Brother Jie did it, Brother Jie thought, Brother Jie did the same.

So, let’s make a combination of real, old, beautiful, local.

These unfavorable factors can be effectively diluted.

It is also possible that after Li Shaojie returns to China, he can still occupy the market (he will not leave).

Li Shaojie is one of the band's creators and lead singers, and the other candidates are locals.

Naturally, there will be no messy troubles.

The reason why I want Li Shaojie to be the lead singer is precisely because he "shows his face enough" and he is still a C position.

But it is not the only lead singer, and it will not make many people feel that there is only Li Shaojie in this band.

This may be the best way so far.

But for Li Shaojie, to start a band, he also needs to have a multi-vocalist model.

Perhaps a challenge.

Because, for the band, the lead singer's style is very important.

The lead singer of each band is the distinctive label of its band.

Even the creative direction of many bands is to serve the lead singer.

If you are a band, the span is too large, it is difficult to handle.

Of course, this is what the lot company is worried about.

But Jack thinks differently.

"It's a little easier."

Li Shaojie frowned.

If you want to rush, you have to go big and fast.

Two lead singers?
Brother, presumably this is still limited by the imagination.

I fucking want five!

Li Shaojie pouted, thinking in his heart.

If you want me to do it, then it can't just be called a band! !

You can have a group that is bigger than a band but smaller than a studio.

This is a new attempt in the music industry.

In other words, from the perspective of the music industry, what Li Shaojie wants to do is undoubtedly a waste of resources and a "stupid operation".

You can obviously support five bands with very different styles.

But want to play five in one?

Really five boxes and one course of treatment?

Under the clash of styles, it may cause constraints instead.

Why bother?
However, such an idea was also carefully considered by Li Shaojie.

There may be some constraints, and there may be waste of resources.

But this is the early to mid-term.

If it can really take off, then this weird type of band can become the only true god.

Because there are no shortcomings, the style has no limitations.

A flat and single recognition can save resources, of course it can have a high degree of recognition, and it will be easy to develop, but the fan base is easily restricted.

For example.

When you play LOL, you only master one hero.

Others may play ten rounds with ten heroes, but if you play ten rounds with one hero, you will naturally improve faster.

And after training, using this hero to score points will also have an advantage.

but.

Waiting for you to work hard to reach the high score.

Once your unique skill is banned.

In Wuhu, the strength dropped by one rank on the spot.

And if it is a player of Hero Sea, even though he can still only play one game per game, and if he wants to reach the same height, he needs to pay more practice and talent.

But after taking off, the restrictions are naturally much smaller.

After communicating the details with the lot company for a period of time, Li Shaojie also began to prepare.

Planning to go to the beautiful country.

The agreement reached this time is that Li Shaojie is still the helm and person in charge of the band, and he has absolute control over the band.

And the lot company is the band owner and capital injector.

This point is already very face-saving.

of course.

These were quickly determined.

The next thing to deal with, of course, is
【Band recruitment】

The standard configuration of a band is generally guitarist, bassist, drummer, keyboard player, and lead singer.

Naturally, Li Shaojie would not be the only ones to recruit.

If popular indie bands want to develop better, they must have more levels of details, and these details also require dedicated personnel.

Of course, if it was only in China, it would be too easy for Li Shaojie to start a band.

How many people beat their heads to get in.

How many bands are waiting to cooperate?

Even if you go directly to Uncle Chen's band, you can get it done directly.

But since it is registered in the beautiful country, and the home field of future development will be in Europe and the United States.

Naturally, he wanted to recruit people from a beautiful country.

If you only rely on Li Shaojie to collect cards with a black eye.

The probability and time-consuming of finding the SSR can be imagined.

However, with the lot company, it is different.

The news that the lot company started to recruit people began to spread in European and American circles.

The location is located at the lot headquarters, Santa Monica, California.

As the most watched company in the game industry, this behavior immediately attracted quite a few people in the industry who planned to come for interviews.

Although the game company recruits band members, it seems to be organizing its own team.

This sounds somewhat unprofessional.

But it seems very reasonable to put it on the lot company.

For a time, there were quite a lot of people submitting resumes.

Seeing this, Li Shaojie was very happy.

The more people, the better.

It is said that the big one is drawn from the dwarf.

But if there are enough "shorts", you can see more big ones.

Li Shaojie began to look through and screen resumes.

Of course, these resumes are for reference only.

It can make you more competitive and easier to be noticed.

But it doesn't mean you won.

Compared with professional ability, Li Shaojie values ​​character more.

Yes, investigating character is the top priority.

No matter how strong your business ability is.

Invite a group of monsters, ghosts and snake spirits, do not act as individuals when they have nothing to do, and cause some scandals, who can stand it?
The Scandal of the Pretty Country Star Violence.
It was a scandal even in such a beautiful country.

It is simply unacceptable to change the country.

In this regard, more rigor is required.

Looking through the resumes carefully, many of them are really NB.

It doesn't seem too difficult to choose.

This made Li Shaojie very happy.

But on Li Shaojie's side, he hadn't had time to be happy.

The mentality is already slightly cracked.

There is no other reason.

When the person in charge of the lot company came to talk about some precautions, the conditions inside.
Very outrageous, off the mark.

But very reasonable.

"Jay, we are also in a difficult situation, you have to understand us"

The embarrassment on the face of the person in charge of the lot company does not seem to be fake.

It's really difficult.

"But you have to know, we are still newbies, and there are many things that need to be considered carefully, in your words"

"Yes! Prepare for a rainy day!"

"So, there can't be some eye-popping bugs, at least try to eliminate them as much as possible."

Good guy!
Li Shaojie called him a good guy!

Why haven't you guys been so concerned about the bugs in the game?
"Did you make a mistake?"

Li Shaojie complained.

"It's outrageous"

The requirements of the person in charge are simple.

When recruiting a band, pay attention to the composition and balance of elements.

This average element.
It includes white, black, male, and female, and the age should be relaxed within the legal range as much as possible, and even the appearance should be averaged.

Moreover, it must be compatible with all ZZ-inclined members.

This TM is actually the foundation.

Li Shaojie just now remembered that what we are going to is a magical country.

There is freedom and individualization, which naturally includes various aspects such as "ZZ tendency", "skin color" and "gender".

"The whole band, do you need to recruit some LGBT or transgender people?"

Li Shaojie split open.

The American ZZ is correct, it is really TM silly B.

"That's not enough"

The person in charge shook his head.

"But the basics are still to be done, so as not to be attacked in time."

After a slight pause, the person in charge spoke.

"Jay, you probably don't know much."

"Under normal circumstances, no one actually pays attention to this aspect."

"But the lot company itself has many competitors and many enemies. If it wants to develop new fields, the pressure will naturally be greater, so we must pay special attention to this aspect. It is not like there have been such examples before."

"Such a topic like this doesn't really matter most of the time, but as long as someone has the rhythm, it's a natural disadvantage. If you can avoid it, try to avoid it."

"Besides, you are a Chinese, so you have to play the free card."

Well said TM true.

I was speechless.

Li Shaojie was a little numb.

It never occurred to me that the first step in a band's recruitment is not to measure strength or character.

It turns out that the first step is to make chocolate wafers! !

Both black and white.

The taste should be both soft and crunchy.

Absolutely.

And, that's even just the basics.

subsequent advancement.
Gender, sexual orientation, religion, minorities.

Isn't this asking to use strawberries to make mango flavor on the basis of chocolate wafer? !
"Our lot company, to be a good LOL, didn't even realize it, it was caught in a storm"

The person in charge sighed.

"We first designed the appearance of the hero to fit the character and the background."

"For the sake of players' love, there will naturally be more beautiful characters. But in fact, when we designed heroes, we never paid special attention to the issue of beauty."

"But that's how it is. I have been reported and criticized by others, saying that our female characters in LOL are all young, beautiful, and good-looking women. There are no old, ugly, and fat women. This is against many middle-aged people with ordinary appearance and body Disrespect for women."

A strange look appeared on the person in charge's face.

It's like I can't believe it until now.

"Oh, that's our understanding."

The person in charge spread his hands.

"The original words of other feminist organizations are that the design of our LOL female heroes is too good-looking, which is suspected of using appearance and figure to objectify women."

"And then we went to court."

"And then we lost the case."

"?"

Li Shaojie became even more numb.

What kind of magical reality is this unfolding?

Just make a game, can you also hit this kind of turning gun?

Good guy, the basic skills of punching and shooting can only be said to be worthy of the lighthouse female boxing! !

"Later, in order to stop women's rights, we made Illaoi, the priest of the sea beast."

The person in charge couldn't hold back.

Cover your face.

"Female characters don't dare to design too beautifully. For example, rock finch must have freckles."

"And after we did this, feminist organizations still gave us a lot of warnings, not just feminist organizations, but also LGBT organizations"

"So, when we were designing Neko, the background story revealed that she and Leopard Girl have emotions beyond friendship"

Li Shaojie couldn't believe it.

Eyeballs are widened.

"Yes, haha, unexpected, Nicole is lace."

The person in charge laughed and cried.

"I can only take care of the lesbian group to avoid danger. Fortunately, the players don't have much resentment."

"It's too difficult."
