this man is not calm

Chapter 306 Gap

Sometimes, I have to lament that a pure heart and noble conduct require a rich material foundation and good tutoring to carefully protect them.

Whether it is Mei Fengchun or Zhang Yu, the two aunts and the cousins ​​of the old uncle's family are all very individual people. Putting aside their advantages and disadvantages, the moral education of the next generation is obviously much better than that of ordinary families.

Jin Shang doesn't like to deal with people from the old Huang family. There are many reasons. The young children are not promising people, and the older generation is also very shallow. They don't have the style of the thousand-year-old family at all. Instead, they have a lot of snobbery and shallow.

The decline of a family begins with internal discord. The decline of a large family can be understood from the perspective of its children.

Virtue, virtue and behavior, both Mei Fengchun and Zhang Jun have merits. Their persistence in personal original intention and moral bottom line is very rare.

After recalling Zhang Yun's sister from the "cousin's cousin" family, Mei Fengchun had to admit that Jin Shang's words were right.

"If... there are people to support her and have power to protect her, Zhang Jun's character is really more suitable for the entertainment industry. She has advantages that Fang Xiaopang and I don't have."

"Jianjin has a strong aura of the world. It is a very rare advantage in a niche field where circle culture is prevalent. Walk with successful people, be friends with kind people, and drink, eat meat and brag with people who are loyal. Entertainment industry Here, there are generally people with low academic qualifications and low cultural literacy who are engaged in the work of popularizing science and culture. Because of this, it is difficult for people who are too complicated to gain trust. Zhang Yun... is just right."

This is not to say that we should cut off chicken heads, burn yellow paper, make alliances with blood, and kowtow to the boss, but the simple values ​​​​of "loyalty first" are just like the ancient values ​​​​of filial piety, which everyone from landlords and rich people to officials and nobles likes to praise. Like a country, it is the basis for maintaining the order of superiority and inferiority.

Apprentice culture and teams are rampant. It is almost the millennium. This backward model has not disappeared. It is not without reason. A master is both a teacher and a father. The craftsman is the one who eats, and the apprentice is the half. In the future, not only will I have to protect my sect, but I will also have to provide for myself until the end of my life.

"In the entertainment industry, top students like you and Fang Hua who have majored in majors have natural advantages, but on their way to becoming top stars, they are not as good as Zhang Yun who became a monk halfway. On the contrary, it is easier for laymen... to seize opportunities and complete The dragon's gate leaps."

The ceiling of the album is "The Name of the Rose", a mixed metal-style rock song performed by Jin Shang solo.

As for those who are not outstanding, I won’t mention them.

"I've also discovered it! If I were a truly ambitious debut singer, I should have released one or two albums and gained a basic reputation before decisively pursuing a solo career. I should not be paid attention to by you, Fang Xiaopang, and Zhang Yunrun. Spend."

If this is the case, Mei Fengchun will admit that in this "Because of Love" album, his position as the lead singer is very vague. There are many dance songs and many choruses. He failed to show the advantages of excellent singing skills and the focus is a little bit off. Offset is also to be expected.

Not to mention the distant ones, so many trainees under Changdi Culture are not actually aiming to be the future assembly line "idou internet celebrities", but have a relatively strong "theater" tradition. If they start training in the future, When announcing his family status, he would also introduce specifically whose disciple he was and where he was born.

The success of the album "Because of Love" is certainly worthy of praise, but as time goes by, the discussion has shifted away from Mei Shuying.

Fang Hua and Zhang Jun’s singing and dancing are frequently on the music TV on-demand charts, and the song "Prison Bird", which is popular with Dai Yiqin, is not particularly rich in key points of discussion. Hip-hop’s style expansion is not a failure, but it is not particularly successful either. , too controversial.

"When I was chatting with my friends, I was always asked how someone could write such sympathetic lyrics. "Good Intentions", "It's Hard to Say", "The Good of a Man" and "Unrequited Love", if it weren't for a woman If it is written by a compatriot, it must be written by a stupid man with a woman's heart. If you look at the words in "Big Women", it is hard to imagine how a woman who has not experienced unforgettable love could have such a sentiment."

Fang Hua's ambitions are not big enough, or in other words, she is not particularly obsessed with becoming famous. Mei Fengchun also has a strong sense of self. Compared to the shine in the spotlight and the glory of being touted, she would rather do what she wants to do. Things must be recognized by those who recognize them.

Jin Shang also thought about using a modern management model to slightly transform the operating model, but the result was not particularly successful.

"Fang Xiaopang even asked me in private if you had a fight with your girlfriend. Also, your song "Don't Be Afraid of Me Being Sad" is so brilliant at describing the depression of a man who is so humble that he is moved by himself. Either you feel the same way. , or it’s just showing off skills and playing with the extremes of people’s hearts.”

"Tell me, what kind is it?"

"It's none of my business. I didn't sing it anyway. Did you know that the tutor of the popular group in the college joked privately that the genre of domestic bitter love songs is about reminiscing, missing, regretting, apologizing, pretending to be strong, and reuniting after a long separation? , in addition to rekindling old feelings, you have officially opened up a new style of forgiving spare tires. Now, you are the 'master of a faction'. An unprecedented 'mountain monster', are you surprised or surprised?"

"Then, what conclusion was drawn?"

In contrast, Zhang Yue is much better. He enjoys being praised and praised, but he is not particularly addicted and can control the situation well.

However, in the past few days, the song "Don't Be Afraid of My Sadness" has unexpectedly skyrocketed. Except for "Super Star" and Dai Yiqin's song "The Trouble Caused by the Moon", which can barely be suppressed, the others have been stepped on. Even "The Rain Keeps Falling" is resigned to being inferior.

In the two English songs, the chorus team's limelight was either stolen by Yuan Xiu and Fang Hua, or Zhang Yu's dance attracted attention.

The halo effect of a master is still very bluffing in this industry, especially in an environment where acquaintances are leading the way.

Being aloof, calm, and free means alienation and low motivation. Unless you meet someone you are interested in, you will not go into business just for a few bad bucks.

When this topic comes up, Mei Fengchun feels annoyed.

I don’t care what happened abroad for the time being. In the field of domestic bitter love songs in 1996, it was indeed the first time that Jin Shang wrote and sang this way. The song "Don't Afraid of Me Being Sad" was regarded as the "Prince of Love Songs" in the early years. "One of the most enduring early masterpieces and well deserved.

In addition, this style is indeed within Jin Shang's "defensive range", and the voice conditions are also very suitable.

and so……

"Currently, I am the celebrity in charge of our little Maza band?"

"Although I don't want to admit it,... in terms of song popularity, "Don't Be Afraid of Me Being Sad" is indeed the highest among the three albums of our group."

"It's a bit unexpected and somewhat expected that the stage name Yuanxiu became popular so quickly, but the nickname of the master of "Forgive Spare Tire" is even more outrageous than 'Qingdu Shanshui Lang'. I just want to ask... this You didn’t promote it, did you?”

"No such thing!"

Mei Fengchun denied with a guilty conscience,

"Fang Xiaopang and I were joking in private, but I don't know how others heard it, and then... it spread in the class. You also know that our circle is small to begin with, and whenever there is something to talk about, it immediately spreads throughout the class. ”

"That's not you?"

Jin Shang was so angry that he complained angrily,

"If I wasn't afraid that you wouldn't be able to hold on, why should I destroy my image by singing "Don't Be Sad for Me"? "The Sea", "My Future Is Not a Dream", "Fish Swimming All Day", "Happy Worship" ", which one is not good?"

"In business and art, there are always trade-offs, isn't it what you said? Make money, don't make fancy things. I even postponed the release of "Don't Give Up". The next album must not be released again. The ticket has bounced."

Finally, I had a modern pop rock song that I wrote the lyrics and partly participated in the arrangement. However, it was excluded from the "Because of Love" album because the theme did not fit the theme. It was really frustrating. "I understand, let's start warming up around the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Seeing Jin Shang's promise, Mei Fengchun felt relieved.

Jin Shang is an honest person. If he doesn't say anything, he will definitely honor the promise he made.

"That's good! This time we took the commercial route. Such success was achieved under the pressure of Dai Yiqin releasing an album at the same time. We can be considered a more or less well-known team, right?"

"Maybe!"

"Then...do you still have enough stock in your hand? Whether it's "Because of Love" or "The Goodness of a Man", the last one or two songs in it are already..."

"Is it below the standard?"

"It can't be said that in today's pop music market, the worst one is much better than other works of the same period. It just... doesn't have the feeling of being eye-catching."

For example, "Wild Waves", a pop-rock song, is just a perfunctory work compared to "Vanguard" in the album. This custom-made slobbery song like "Just Bad Money" is actually the same as "Rose's" "Name" is the name of a person, can you believe it?

If it hadn't been for the inclusion of a short piece of rap that showed off his personality, the evaluation of "a big loss of quality" would have been inevitable.

It's also "playing" music, and talking about sales volume or fame is too "layman". Even pure consumer fans, most of them can tell which song is more "high-end".

"You are so optimistic about hiphop. The domestic mainstream music circle has polarized opinions on this style."

"Wherever there is polarization, they are simply pursuing each other fiercely. They are almost becoming monsters and monsters."

The soil from which hiphop was born destined it to appear as a subculture from the beginning.

Labels such as rebellious personality, cathartic tendencies, unconventional, free and spontaneous, exciting and trendy, and extreme entertainment are even more exaggerated than rock music, which has not yet been fully accepted by domestic fans.

"In a few years, or when we become more famous, we can promote hip-hop more, maybe it will be good..."

"As you become famous, you have more worries. Now we don't even dare to let go of hip-hop. If we 'play' a more unique reggae style in the future, won't we be scolded and withdraw from the industry?"

"Don't, don't, don't, that's your plan, not mine. If it wasn't necessary, I can't even imagine that I would get involved in metal rock. Shaking my head, dressing up in strange clothes, crying like a ghost, I'm afraid I'm going to cut myself off from my family and friends."

"Forget it, don't take too big a step. In the last album, didn't we try the Latin pop style "La Isla Bonita"? It's natural to try more, right?"

"You can pull him down."

Mei Fengchun glanced at Jin Shang angrily,

"I just want to sing honestly, and I don't want to die in society at a young age. That song "Straight Come Straight Go" made me feel even more stressed."

Now it is not 2006, but 1996. When others are singing "Xiao Fang", "Star Lights", and "Nine Hundred and Ninety-nine Roses", I suddenly sing a song that combines the charm of What is the contrast between phantom rock and arena rock power pop "Roar"?

At this stage, how many fans can hear the beauty of breakbeat?

At least now, Mei Fengchun and Fang Hua have never seen any domestic pop singer act like this.

"Half a step ahead is a trend, one step ahead is a madman, and two steps ahead is a lunatic. I don't want you to be judged as 'untimely' ten years from now. We are still young and there is no need to jump back and forth to test the public. Bottom line.”

"What are you afraid of? I'm the big boss of the mixed music industry. What can anyone do to me? The worst I can do is stay honest for a while and avoid the limelight."

"Don't think that everyone is blind and deaf, and even with a stage name like Yuan Xiu, it's not foolproof."

Mei Fengchun advised,

"If you want to release "Happy Worship", I can't stop you. You have to wait for "HandClap". If you want to release it, don't release it in China first. ".Baby One More Time" is best until next year or the year after..."

"It's not a big problem, is it?"

Jin Shang retorted somewhat depressedly.

Don't think that the atmosphere is conservative. The domestic pop music world is all "clear soup and little water". I won't mention it in this life. In the previous life, "Xiao Fang", "Tracker's Love", "Big Sedan" and the like will be broadcast on KTV twenty years later. I feel embarrassed even singing.

In the age of innocence, playing with flowers is even more explicit than the materialistic mobile Internet virtual world, especially the unabashed sense of contrast, which is simply irresistible.

"Fang Xiaopang wouldn't dare to sing those lyrics in the MV, coupled with the jaw-dropping dance. If he really wanted to post it, the dance would have to be rearranged and some of the lyrics would have to be changed."

"Then... I'll think about it before I talk."

"I know what you mean, just to bully the fans. Most of them can't understand foreign languages. They're so easy to fool."

"Is it wrong? I am very honest when writing lyrics in Mandarin. People who make money from foreigners must have some targeted benefits."

"Bah, how about you come first?"

"That's not impossible."

Jin Shang, who was rubbing his chin and thinking seriously, seemed to be moved.

My image abroad actually doesn't matter, the key is that the money smells good. Staying in the country, struggling to death means that you and Dai Yiqin will fall into internal strife.

"You just have to work hard, don't let all the popularity we have accumulated in the country go to waste."

"Don't worry, I can distinguish between priorities."

The brand name of a young talent cannot be destroyed. This is the "long-term meal ticket".
