I am the savior of China Entertainment

Chapter 43 Filming and Production

In a studio rented somewhere in Shanghai, MV director Kuang Shen is setting up the scene.

Kuang Shen is an advertising director. He had the experience of directing MVs before. He is best at capturing the beauty of women, so Fan Nuoxuan specially invited him to direct all MV shootings.

"Be careful when lighting here. The light is too hard. I want soft light. Light the candles and put on makeup. Is the makeup ready?"

"Immediately, director..."

"Hurry up, why are you dawdling?"

"I'm sorry, director..."

Li He and Li Qin are putting on makeup. In fact, both of them have very good looks. It is okay to show up without makeup, but the skin presented in front of the camera looks a bit dark, so they need to put on foundation.

The makeup artist is applying lipstick to Li Qin, a pink lipstick, Kuang Shen wants a pink and seductive feeling.

There is a scene in the MV, Li Qin swipe his finger across his lips, his lips flick, it looks like a peach, he wants someone to take a bite.

Kuang Shen knows how to take pictures of women. He doesn't need to show his legs to show off his figure. With a few simple lens language, he can capture the image of a lovely woman.

Such an MV, any boy who saw it would have to say it's beautiful!
When shooting the MV, Kwong Shen first shot the part of Li Hyuk, peeling apples, leaning against the wall to sing, etc., which felt like a montage.

The scenes of Li Qin were also shot alone, in the MV the two did not meet, Li Qin is a lovely woman imagined by Li He.

Watching Li Hyuk filming, Li Qin got the lyrics of "Lovely Woman", read it from beginning to end, and exclaimed: "The lyrics are well written, very delicate, with a girly feeling."

"Yeah, that's why I often say that Li Hyuk has a girlish heart, a little princess living in his heart, otherwise how did he write such delicate and girly lyrics." Fan Nuoxuan said.

"Looking at it, the gap has completely widened. No wonder you are not worried at all about those songs that copied the prelude. They are indeed not on the same level." Li Qin felt relieved after reading the lyrics.

Under the same prelude, some singers wrote "Lovely Woman", such as Lee Hyuk, while some singers wrote "'Lovely' Woman", it will only make people feel terrible, this is the gap.

Therefore, habitual plagiarists are used to waiting for the full version of the song to be released before plagiarizing and stitching.

The reason why there are so many "Lovely Women" in a prelude is mainly caused by the copyright issue of Fantasy Studio. QQ Music and Fantasy Studio signed a five-year exclusive digital copyright, so the plagiarized "Lovely Woman" is from other platforms.

Because other platforms are not reconciled to the popularity of "Lovely Woman" being exclusively enjoyed by QQ Music, so many pirated versions have been released. Even if they can't attract traffic, they will destroy this pot of soup.

But they were a little anxious, and copied the complete song of "Lovely Woman" before it came out, so that when Li Hyuk's version came out, the audience would be able to see who was good and who was bad.

In a way, the bad things turned into good things.

Still the same sentence, don't worry, after all, plagiarism is something that QQ Music does all by itself, everyone looks the same.

When the new copyright law comes out, we will come to argue with these unscrupulous platforms.

The MV filming went smoothly, and the filming ended in the morning. Li Qin politely declined the lunch invitation and rushed to a program announcement.

In the program in the afternoon, Li Qin revealed some details of the MV co-production between himself and Li He.
"Shooting the MV with Li Hyuk this time is a special experience, it's great." Li Qin said.

"Then have you heard Li Hyuk's new song?" the host asked.

Li Qin nodded and said, "Of course I heard it. All I can say is that it sounds very nice."

"Wow, I'm so envious that you heard it in advance. There are many versions of "Lovely Woman" on the Internet. As far as I know, you also shot the MV for "Lovely Woman". Can you tell me about Lee Hyuk's "Lovely Woman" "Does it sound better than the ones on the Internet?" The host began to dig a hole.

Of course Li Qin won't be fooled: "I haven't heard the ones on the Internet, so I don't know much about them, but "Lovely Woman" sung by Li Hyuk is very nice, everyone just look forward to it."

When the show was broadcast, sharp-eyed netizens also took screenshots of Li Qin's disgusted expression when he heard various versions of "Lovely Woman" on the Internet, and it became an emoji for a while.

At the same time, it also made everyone more curious about what Li Hyuk's own "Lovely Woman" is like. They couldn't wait and wanted to hear it.

This sense of anticipation is getting stronger and stronger, and the popularity of "Lovely Woman" is not only not destroyed by plagiarism and piracy, but is getting higher and higher.

Except for QQ Music, other platforms are outraged. Why can't the popularity continue?

In this way, Li Hyuk's album is released, what should they do without copyright?
But it doesn't matter, there is another way, when your album comes out, all twelve songs will be plagiarized.

Listeners have a kind of inertia. Even if QQ Music has the exclusive copyright of Li He's songs, it is difficult for NetEase Cloud users to turn to QQ Music.

So at this time, NetEase Cloud launched a plagiarized song of the same name, most NetEase Cloud users will compromise, and pirated versions will also listen to it!Unless you are particularly curious, you will go to a copyrighted platform to listen to the original song.

It is precisely because of this lazy behavior of users that major music platforms have launched so many plagiarized and pirated versions.

But the facts have proved that even if the exact same piece of music is in front of them, not everyone can learn it, such as this "Lady".

When Fan Nuoxuan got the lyrics of "Lady", she thought that Li He was developing in the direction of the ancient style. Xu Shangao also tried the ancient style, but the response was not so great.

In the end, when Li Hyuk sang the song, he realized that it was rapping under the guise of an ancient style. Isn't this messing around?
"I said Li Hyuk, what kind of singing are you doing? The words are written in an ancient style, how come they become rap songs?" Fan Nuoxuan asked when Li Hyuk came out of the recording studio.

"Isn't this good! There is a feeling of contrast. No one would have thought that this song is actually a Chinese-style rap song. This is the sense of difference." Li He said.

"Not to mention, boss, your song is very good, but you can't understand what you are singing without reading the lyrics." Lu Wen, the sound engineer, complained.

"You don't understand this, it's just this feeling, people will read the lyrics if they don't understand, and then they will find that the lyrics are so well written." Li Hyuk laughed.

"Well written? I'm afraid the audience will kill you!" Fan Nuoxuan rolled her eyes cutely.

Li He clapped his hands and said: "You don't understand, what I want to do is not to follow the fashion, but to create the fashion, everyone come to learn my songs, this is my pop music."

"Anyway, I like "Dark Sky" the most in this album, and this song will be the second title song."

"Okay, I'll listen to you..."

In the previous life, the album "Jay" was born out of nowhere, injecting a different voice into the music scene. However, that year there was also an unpopular singer Stefanie, who beat "Jay" with an album of the same name to win the best newcomer , there is a song "Day Hei Hei" in it.

I don't know what to do with Stefanie in this time and space. In short, this song "Dark and Black" was used by Li He for his own use. Now the songs that beat "Jay" are all in "Jay", so there is no rival.

In the first album, not only the songs of Jay Chou and Stefanie, but also the songs of Tao Jiji, the godfather of Chinese R&B in the previous life.Lee Hyuk selected a few songs from King Gigi and put them in the first album to form a super killer.

If the people in the previous life saw this album, they would probably start to faint. What album is this?

Let's take a look at the tracks of this album. Needless to say, "Lovely Woman", "Tornado", "Xingqing" and "Lady" have been revealed.Li He also kept three songs, "The Old Indian Turtledove", "The Clock in the Reverse Direction", and "Istanbul".

As for "Perfectionism", it will be released as a single between album releases.

Then add "Dark Sky", "Quick Sand", "Love, It's Simple", and "Snail" and "The End of the World" by former director Zhou PLUS to the album.

This repertoire lineup is quite luxurious, almost every song can be used as the title song of other singer's albums, and Li Hyuk put them all in one album.

No wonder Fan Nuoxuan scolded Li Hyuk several times after listening to the completed album.

Guns N' Roses, who had finished a round of commercial tour announcements, returned to the studio and heard Li He's first album. The five girls followed Fan Nuoxuan and scolded Li He for being a prodigal.

It can be said that the album "Jay" is simply an unprecedented album in the Chinese music scene, with a fusion of various styles.

The genre of the whole album is mainly R&B and New Hip-Hop, with the addition of classical baroque string accompaniment and Band, forming a British retro style.

What's more special is that the artistic conception of the Spanish-style string performance in the album's songs is extremely close to the film soundtrack.

Everyone is professional and has their own judgments. After listening to all twelve songs, Ye Zixin said to Li He: "If your album does not win the best album award at the Golden Melody Awards next year, it will be the Golden Melody Award." award mistake."

Li Hyuk smiled, according to the performance of the Golden Melody Awards in recent years, "Jay" may not win, there is no other reason, because he is from the mainland, so it is not correct!
This is also a bad place in the Chinese music scene. The original credible Golden Melody Awards took care of the so-called correctness, and there was a lack of other influential awards to replace it, which led to the absurd situation of no awards for good songs.

Even the previous year's Golden Melody Awards had a big oolong, awarding the best single of the year to a plagiarized pirated song. At that time, public opinion was in an uproar, and the creator was so angry that he wanted to sue the Golden Melody Awards.

Although the Golden Melody Awards later canceled the award and apologized, what happened is what happened, and its credibility was once again questioned.

Moreover, the ratings of the Golden Melody Awards Ceremony have declined year after year, and the winners are always those old faces. It has been a long time since the music scene has heard the voice of fresh blood.

This situation is not an exception. Music review programs and magazines that no one pays attention to, Dage radio stations that no one listens to, and major awards that have gradually diminished or even ceased to run.

The Chinese music industry is in full decline, and it can be said that it has reached its lowest point.

This kind of thing, either completely collapsed, slipped into the abyss and could not be rescued, or rebounded from the bottom and set foot on the peak again.

　Uncharted Seas is now on PC, it’s really fun, by the way, how about a collection of recommended tickets?
