Get off work and become the Godfather of Rock and Roll

Chapter 128 The pain behind it

Lin Xinyue has seen too many rock albums these days.

None of them shook her heart.

She is a composition major, and her musical attainments are no less than those of ordinary singers.

However, just yesterday, a demo was released on the Internet. It was a newly signed artist from Baichun Group.

A very simple video with a song titled Genghis Khan.

She searched her memory and remembered that it was a dance song with popular attributes.

But after adaptation, many of the lyrics, originally used to praise Genghis Khan, were adapted to mobilize nationalist pride.

Very clever change.

At the same time, there are great changes in the arrangement, using a circumflex structure, which makes the whole song very distinctive.

She could tell at a glance that this was Li Gui.

A wonderful Li Gui.

This demo, driven by an invisible hand, has been played tens of millions of times.

The label of the video contains the word rock.

Since watching this video, she has been a little distracted throughout the day.

She didn't care much about other rock albums, and she just smiled indifferently at the one with the highest sales volume of six million.

When the tide recedes, Maizishan will still stand on the top of the mountain.

But this Genghis Khan is different. It uses a wonderful way to package itself into rock and roll.

Rock and roll that is hard to distinguish between real and fake.

Moreover, since it is a disco arrangement, the rhythm and rhythm are no less than those of Mai Zishan's rock music.

As the saying goes, there is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts.

No matter how high the sales volume of others is, it cannot affect Mai Zishan's number one position, but this Baichun.

There is a real potential for threats, and viewers will only remember the one with the widest spread.

And, what if Mai Zishan is pushed off the altar?

Lin Xinyue felt a little overwhelmed when she thought of this. For the first time in so many years of working in the industry, she felt nervous and threatened.

The person who planned this song Genghis Khan is a master.

You must have a deep understanding of the market and the public to make such a clear strategy.

"It's difficult." Lin Xinyue said unconsciously.

The words were spoken so quietly that no one could hear them.

Outside the security room, Mai Zishan has already performed on stage. The audience at the music festival is getting more excited every day, and Mai Zishan is heading towards success every day.

The music festival has reached its third day, and the number of people is still rising. The Culture and Tourism Bureau of Yan City is very happy and wants Mai Zishan to come every year.

However, there seemed to be a dark cloud approaching on the horizon.

……

Fu Guangyu picked up the pen again and again, but in the end he couldn't write a single manuscript.

Praising Rock and Roll and Praising Maizi's goodness are tasks given to him by shareholders, and it's simply killing him.

He praises Rock and Roll for what he can do, and he has no grudge against Rock and Roll.

But praising the goodness of wheat is not something I can do...

However, in the past two days, he saw hope.

On the Internet, a song demo of "Genghis Khan" spread rapidly.

It made his eyes shine, and his years of professionalism allowed him to be keenly aware.

This is not rock and roll! This is disco with a twist! It’s pretend rock and roll!
But it’s so good!

The melody is extremely simple and has the characteristics of pop, rock and disco.

The communication effect is comparable to that of Mai Zishan’s songs!

He quickly called Yu Qing and asked him to help write the article. After all, his professional level was still not as good as Yu Qing's.

But to his surprise, Yu Qing was silent for a long time and said: "I listened to Genghis Khan. It was a disco adaptation. It can only be said to be clever, but it has little artistic value."

"I know, but the audience can't tell the difference. I've been driven crazy by the shareholders' meeting in the past two days. I have to write an article to praise rock. The timing of this song's appearance is just right, so I can praise it! Can you help me? Let me write an article."

Yu Qing refused simply: "Write it yourself. I can't praise this song, but I can help you praise Mai Zishan's "Shameless". I just listened to this song during the live broadcast of the music festival. It's really Okay, this one is really good.”

Fu Guangyu could hardly breathe.

Good guy, this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes has rebelled?

You hated rock music the most at first, so I helped you criticize Mai Zishan, but ended up throwing yourself into a trap. But you said you like it very much now?

What about the most basic trust between people?

Fu Guangyu refused and said, "Teacher Yu, you are so unkind. I only messed with this Mai Zishan because of you."

Yu Qing was very confused, "You and Mai Zishan have no hatred, why are you so worried about it?"

Fu Guangyu is about to vomit blood, no revenge? Don't you hate me for doing this?
He looks down on us critics!
Fu Guangyu's face was full of black lines and he hung up the phone.

Put your hands on the keyboard.

"On the True Rock Characteristics: Transmission Rate, Melody, and Emotion - Impressions after Listening to "Genghis Khan""...

"No longer believe!
What truth do you believe! People are already so indifferent
No more memories!

What a memory of the past!
I am not the same person now"

Thousands of people singing together! It's like an enhanced version of Salt Industry Base, and most people have never heard of this song.

"Another new song! 199 is really worth it!"

"This is not a new song. I have heard it before in a music bar, but it sounds better this time."

"I'm about to fall in love with Mai Zishan, this song has so much staying power!"

It was difficult for the people present to express their emotions. The ticket price was 199, and the new songs came one after another. They were all addictive.

The living Bodhisattva in this world - Mai Zishan!

After Mai Zishan finished singing, he looked at the thousands of people in the audience and still remembered that the day before the opening of the music festival, he was more confused than ever before and felt that it was all unreal.

But I have actually come to this moment step by step without making a single mistake, and the guitar in my hand has never been so smooth.

Thousands of people, thousands of waving hands.

The blue sky, the faint sonic boom of the speakers, the distant coastline, and some unpacked tents on the grass.

He vaguely saw himself in the square.

……

Perhaps because he was so selfless when he sang without shame, Mai Zishan's voice was a little hoarse the next day.

"Take a day off. We haven't announced the program anyway, just to prevent you from being in poor condition." Lin Xinyue said with concern from the side.

Mai Zishan tightened his mouth. At this moment, he was in the lounge, and others, including Rong Shasha, were making up for his gap.

"Genghis Khan," he said in a loud voice.

Lin Xinyue was stunned for a moment, "You know, I thought you were busy these days and didn't pay attention."

“I feel weird about this song.”

"It gives me the feeling of a stitched monster. It's quite interesting to combine rock and pop with disco."

Mai Zishan himself has done a lot of weird things like suturing. Apart from When He Wakes Up, he also has a bunch of unpopular songs focusing on suturing.

Lin Xinyue brought him a glass of water.

“How is it getting played?”

Lin Xinyue hesitated to speak, "It's very high. It's so high that I felt a little flustered. I took advantage of your music festival to release it and picked the right time."

Mai Zishan nodded and said nothing. It was obvious that the company behind the song had deliberate intentions.

When singers hold music festivals and concerts, they are the most undistracted time.

"It's interesting to change disco to rock." Mai Zishan sighed with a wry smile.

From Quancheng Civic Square to now, he also has new insights.

Why couldn't he become popular at first, and why couldn't Chen Kun become popular either?
Because they are a bit idealistic.

People who are not idealistic have no burden, they can do whatever they want with the money, and they can tease the public's ears with peace of mind.

My wallet quickly became bulging.

Lin Xinyue sat on the chair opposite Mai Zishan. Outside at the music festival, Rong Shasha was singing.

"Don't worry too much. I just asked Chen Kexin. His movie will be released in more than a month from now. You will be even more popular by then."

Mai Zishan shook his head, "I'm not worried, I'm just sighing."

"Just don't worry. We have many countermeasures and differentiated attacks. I'm going to select a few of your songs and submit them for music awards."

"There are also a few TV dramas that I would like you to sing the theme songs for, and..."

Maizi is good at drinking water and does not speak.

"There is also a documentary director who has won many international awards. Recently he has focused on rock and roll and wants to make a feature documentary."

"This is good." Mai Zishan suddenly spoke.

"I think it's good too. I just took a step-by-step photo of how you made your fortune from the square, recounted your past, and it became high-end." Lin Xinyue said with satisfaction.

Mai Zishan immediately picked her favorite coping strategy, which made her very happy.

Facing a song like Genghis Khan, we can only attack it in a differentiated way.

"No, it's not about me. I want the director to shoot the audience. There are many audiences worth photographing. I have nothing to photograph."

Lin Xinyue: "???"

"I know people who are riding on national highways for Blue Lotus. I know people who work hard in small restaurants to support their families. I know people who have to endure diabetes to socialize in order to work. I know people who are bruised and bruised because of their dreams. Aren't they worth photographing?"

"Photograph their stories and their feelings about rock and roll. They are the protagonists."

After Mai Zishan finished speaking, he looked directly at Lin Xinyue.

"Genghis Khan sounds so good that I am planning to buy this album, but there is no pain behind it."

"Invite that documentary director to film it and capture the pain behind the song."

"This is the real difference in play."

Lin Xinyue sat up straight after listening. At this moment, Mai Zishan almost made her forget to breathe.
