Chapter 264 Summer 2021 (3)

"We have to finish this song before the Dragon Boat Festival, so how meaningful it is to release this song on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival." Chen Mo was very looking forward to: "And this song, we must shoot the MV, and I know the location." After thinking about it, I went to Yanqing to shoot the scene, there are many wild Great Walls there, which is suitable for the magnificent atmosphere of this song."

"You mean, let's go to Yanqing to play?" Gao Wenhao smiled: "From last winter to now, I haven't gone out for more than half a year. I just went out to play. I look forward to it. Your suggestion is good."

"Okay, when can you finish the arrangement?" Chen Mo asked.

"I'll finish it by this Friday at the latest."

"Then let's go to Yanqing on Saturday, and I'll choose the filming location in advance." Chen Mo said.

"Okay." Gao Wenhao was full of expectation.

The location for the MV shooting was selected in two locations in the YQ district, one is the Longtan Canyon and the other is the Dazhuangke Great Wall.These two places were provided by Chen Mo, a netizen. Chen Mo knew that there was a person in his circle of friends who liked to look at the mountains and waters in the suburbs of BJ, so he asked him: "Brother, where are there canyons, mountains, flowing water, and wild places?" The Great Wall is not a scenic spot, and there is no admission fee. I want to make a MV to reflect the ancient style, so you can recommend some places suitable for this style."

The eldest brother immediately understood, and ran all over the barren mountains and wild mountains around BJ by himself, and he immediately thought of Longtan Canyon and Dazhuang Keye Great Wall.

On Saturday, Gao Wenhao drove Chen Mo to Longtan Canyon first. In order to shoot this first MV well, Chen Mo bought a casual suit from the Internet. Later, he realized that he should have Buy a set of Hanfu, which is more in line with the artistic conception of this song.

Standing on a high mountain, standing on a boulder, standing beside the gurgling water, Chen Mo began to sing the song "The Land of Chu" loudly: "The whole world is drunk but I wake up, the whole world is turbid but I am clear, take a long breath To cover up tears and lament the people's livelihood, I will seek a long way to repair it."

After taking most of the scenery in Longtan Gorge, the sky began to rain lightly. The two of them braved the light rain and continued to drive along the winding mountain road to Dazhuang Keye Great Wall.

The car drove for more than half an hour and arrived at Dengwangkou of the Dazhuangke Great Wall. The light rain outside the window seemed to become heavier. The two of them avoided the rain in the car for a while, and when the raindrops were a little smaller, they immediately took the shooting equipment , along the winding mountain road uphill, after a while, the winding Great Wall came into view.

Gao Wenhao was still holding up the equipment and mobile phone to shoot, while Chen Mo was still singing heartily in the sparse drizzle: "You cry, tears flow with the Miluo River, you cry, but who knows? Cry, Dongting bourbon autumn wind, Cry, hold another handful of the land of Chu State."

The shooting lasted for more than an hour. Almost all the shots they wanted were shot several times. Nearly a hundred large and small videos were shot. The two of them breathed a sigh of relief. They stood at the highest point of the Wild Great Wall and looked into the distance. Looking at the luxuriant green hills, looking at the winding and circling Great Wall, it looks like a giant dragon rampaging through the mountains until it reaches the clouds.Thinking that this immortal project could still be built under the backward technology and productivity conditions of the Ming Dynasty, it really deserves to be the eighth wonder of the world.

"The Great Wall is still there today, but we don't see Qin Shihuang back then." Chen Mo sighed.

Gao Wenhao smiled: "But in Qin Shihuang's time, spending manpower, material and financial resources to build the Great Wall was a once-and-for-all move."

The two took some more photos, and drove back to the city while it was still dark.

In order to make this song well, Chen Mo has put in a lot of effort, and the time and energy spent shooting the MV is not counted. He needs to find a professional recording studio to record. Although the apartment Gao Wenhao rents has a radio microphone and The professional recording equipment is a simple recording studio, but Chen Mo felt that this was not enough, so he contacted the former leader, Sister Tong, and wanted to borrow her recording studio.

Sister Tong is still working in the media. She is a media teacher who has an office, and there is also a professional recording studio in it. The office has been idle, so she lent it to Sister Tong for temporary work.After moving to the teacher's office, Sister Tong invited Chen Mo to visit, discussing whether we could do some media work together in the future, pointed to the recording studio and said: "If you want to record songs again, come here to record songs, I won't charge you."

Chen Mo remembered what Sister Tong said, so she stopped being polite, called Sister Tong, and said that she would go to the recording studio to record songs in a few days, Sister Tong said, "No problem."

After making an appointment with Gao Wenhao, Chen Mo slipped out of the company while he was free in the afternoon, took a taxi and went to Sister Tong's office. Under Gao Wenhao's guidance, he recorded songs for nearly two hours.

I wanted to invite Sister Tong to have a meal with the teacher in charge of the recording studio and Gao Wenhao after recording the song, but the company had a temporary emergency and had to drag Chen Mo to a meeting. Chen Mo told everyone the reason and hurried back to the company.Recently, the company has a cooperative project with the Academy of Railway Sciences, and these days they are holding meetings for this project from time to time.

After the meeting in the evening, Chen Mo took another taxi and went to Gao Wenhao's residence. At this time, Gao Wenhao had already started to select Chen Mo's original voice and started to arrange the music.

While listening to the original sound, the two discussed which sentence was nice and which one to use.After an hour of busy work, I have almost selected the original sound of the main song, and it is already past nine o'clock in the evening.Chen Mo ordered takeaway, the two of them took a break, and after dinner, they continued to make arrangements.

The original sound of the chorus was selected for a long time, and then the sound of guitar, bass, orchestra, drums, and other instruments was added. Although Chen Mo did not understand music, he could give Gao Wenhao some music with his own inspiration and perception. Opinions on the arrangement, such as the part where the first chorus enters the accompaniment interval in the middle of the second verse, he said: "Brother Gao, I think a pipa should be added here."

Gao Wenhao thought for a while: "It makes sense." Then he searched for the sound of the pipa in the arrangement software, and began to try out the timbres of various pipas. After trying several timbres, he finally found the one he was satisfied with.

After adding the pipa, the two listened and felt very satisfied. Chen Mo suddenly came up with inspiration: "What if I add some wind sounds, because it is suitable for the feeling of the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves to set off this kind of sad atmosphere."

Gao Wenhao began to look for the sound of autumn wind from the instrument again.

The arrangement is basically done, Gao Wenhao said: "I think more harmony should be added to the chorus part."

"Yes, the harmony must highlight the atmosphere, because the chorus part of his song is to express that kind of grand sadness, giving people a very shocking, heart-wrenching, and helpless tragic feeling." Chen Mo said at the same time As he spoke, he gestured with his hands, expressing his feelings directly.

"I understand." Gao Wenhao began to select Chen Mo's previous original voice, and said in his mouth: "This can be used as a harmony, and this can also be used as a backup." Then he recorded a few more pieces of harmony. The sound is superimposed on the chorus part, and he said: "For the chorus part of the second stanza, let's directly superimpose four choruses, so that we can express your feelings."

"Okay, okay." Chen Mo nodded repeatedly.
