Dragon, choose cultural victory to make money

Chapter 236 Zhuo Cupid Go Online

In the recording studio, Rowling sat in front of the piano, her fingers dancing on the black and white keys. Melody flowed out like a stream and was transmitted to the studio outside the soundproof glass through the recording magic.

Drogo, the elf Kailan, now the music director of the group's entertainment department, as well as the tuner and his assistant, were quietly enjoying the performance in the studio.

The quiet and simple melody seems to contain endless vitality, allowing the listener to feel the fleeting beauty in the noisy world.

The song was over in three and a half minutes.

There was applause in the studio.

Rowling walked out of the recording studio calmly.

"That was outstanding, Ms. Rowling. This is the second greatest performance I have seen this year, second only to your performance of 'Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence' on the sea stage." Kailan praised sincerely.

As the composer of "Tom and Jerry", this young elf is now becoming famous in the mainland music industry.

While achieving fame at a young age, he remains humble, approachable in daily life, and loves to brag.

For any performance, she would point out the advantages if possible. When she said "it's okay" with a reluctant expression, it basically meant that it was bad.

Therefore, she is very popular in the music department. No matter whether it is true or not, the emotional value is full.

She also enjoyed this social experience of building good relationships with everyone. It was much warmer than the way elves get along with each other, and everyone was very friendly.

Although she didn't know it, everyone was friendly partly because of her warmth and kindness, and partly because she was now the most talented person in the music industry, as well as the music director of the Drogo Corporation.

When you have money and status, the world around you suddenly becomes very friendly.

However, Kailan's boastful social strategy has been repeatedly frustrated recently.

It all went to Ms. Rowling.

Facing Kailan's compliments, no, she didn't even face them. Without even looking at Kailan, she walked to the mixing desk and said to the mixer, "Replay it."

The poor tuner was so scared that he played it back tremblingly.

Because she seldom comes to the human world, Rowling, the underground drow queen, is not used to restraining her aura, or is simply too lazy to do so, which puts a lot of pressure on the staff members with weak capabilities.

This led to Drogo giving additional mental health benefits to staff working with Rowling.

Of course, this money was deducted from Rowling's salary. Anyway, she didn't care much about how much she was paid.

After the replay, Kailan still didn't give up trying to build a good relationship.

"Perfect recording, perfect pitch, timbre, and rhythm, almost no post-processing required."

"Not good enough." Rowling just said this and then went back into the recording studio.

Kailan sighed helplessly, feeling a little depressed.

"It's okay, that's just her behavior. She treats other drow like this too, not to mention you're an elf." Drogo comforted Cailan.

"But……"

"Don't worry, the tasks assigned to her will be completed successfully."

Drogo's own opinion is that compared with someone who is easy to get along with but has terrible work ability, someone who is difficult to get along with but has outstanding abilities, the latter is better.

But what's a little strange today is that Rowling was a little too obsessed with perfection in this recording job.

Taking advantage of the short break in the filming of "The Intouchables", Drogo wanted to record its soundtrack.

It is based on the main melody "Una Mattina", with various variations of this song.

If translated literally, it should be called "One Morning", which is perfect with the original film.

Both the composition and performance are by Italian pianist, Ludovico Aiaudi.

Most people are unfamiliar with this name, unlike those well-known names in the soundtrack industry.

However, his works will sound familiar to you, as if you have heard them somewhere before, such as "Experience" and "Nuvole Bianche".

Because those works always appear in short videos as background music, usually inspirational, passionate film and television clips...

This is not the first time Rowling has participated in a recording, and the song is not difficult.

In the past, her attitude towards recording was to just record it until it was almost done.

Given her level, even if it's "almost good", people will exclaim "Wow, that's so beautiful!" after listening to it.

Moreover, for non-professionals, there is not much difference between Rowling's acceptable level and perfect level, or even no difference at all.

So Zhuogo also agreed with her approach. As long as the recording is acceptable, it will be fine. It is more efficient and more cost-effective.

Everything changed after Rowling read the script.

In order to help her better understand the emotions expressed in the music, Drogo showed her the script and some of the filmed clips.

Then she went berserk.

She will not stop until she has polished this piece to perfection.

Drogo has not yet found out the reason for this abnormality.

Rowling also refused to record each phrase separately and then pick the best ones to piece together.

This is a common trick used in recording. Some singers' recordings are completely different from their live performances. Besides the fact that there is no tuning on site, another big reason is that they have to sing a song in its entirety.

But Rowling thought this would disrupt the flow.

Due to her firm attitude, in the end, the music team had to accompany her to strive for perfection.

After all, it’s not a bad thing.

So, after Rowling went in and out of the recording studio eighty times, she finally nodded with satisfaction.

To be honest, after recording it thirty times, Drogo couldn't hear any difference.

He could only confirm with Kailan.

"What was different about her last time?"

“It’s a work of art, a work of art without any flaws. I never thought that there would be another performer who could achieve this level of control over the tone.”

Kailan said with stars in his eyes.

"Ok."

Drogo pretended to hear it, too.

He couldn't play the piano and didn't know much about the instrument. He didn't understand why the tone would be affected by the performer's technique if the piano was just little hammers hitting the strings.

Take another look at Kailan.

Fallen.

Drogo concluded that the young elf had completely fallen for the drow queen.

It's still one-sided admiration.

It turns out that the world is a huge M, and it is easy to fall in love with someone who ignores you.

"Very good, can we call it a day now?" Drogo stretched his muscles.

I'm tired, and I feel like I can hear the melody of "One Morning" in my hallucinations.

"I found another small flaw." Rowling said suddenly.

"Alright!" Drogo immediately stopped Rowling who was about to go into the recording studio again, "It's already perfect, I can't hear any flaws. Even if there are flaws, we can regard it as imperfect beauty. Okay, let's stop here today." "Incomplete beauty?" Rowling seemed touched by this description and suddenly took out her mobile phone.

Unlike her fingers that are nimble and flexible on piano keys, Rowling types by holding the phone in one hand and tapping letters one by one with the index finger of the other hand.

It looks tiring.

Zhuo Ge was thinking about when to develop voice input to help these elderly people who have difficulty typing.

He himself doesn't really like voice input. He always feels that voice messages are mixed with a lot of useless information and sound tiring. Typing at least requires careful consideration.

No, why is Rowling typing on her phone?

Drogo noticed a problem.

Rowling has never had much interest in the Internet. Even though she would browse some knowledge content on the forum, she would never speak out.

At most, you will use the search once, and not frequently, so just search once.

It won't be like now, typing non-stop.

Detective Fol Drogo is online!
Drogo quietly went behind Rowling, slowly floated up, and found an angle that was just right for him to peek at the contents on the phone.

How can it be considered as an invasion of employee privacy as a boss's business? This is called understanding the living conditions of employees.

Because she was too focused, Rowling didn't notice what Drogo was doing.

With his excellent eyesight, Drogo saw everything on the phone.

It's a chat box.

It’s really strange. I didn’t expect Rowling to chat with her friends.

Is she also the type who is extremely socially phobic offline and a social terrorist online? It doesn't seem like it.

Wow! What a spark! We talked a lot.

Who is the other party?

Why is the name so long?

Ge, Ge, what is Clay...

Drogo narrowed his eyes, observing more closely.

Oh, it's Sir Gordo Craig.

It's really interesting, how come there are still people using their real names online? If there is something explosive online, there is no need for others to open the box, I can open it all by myself.

and many more.

Who?
Drogo looked shocked.

Is this Gordo Craig the Gordo Craig he thinks he is?

How did these two get connected?

That's why Rowling is so persistent in recording the soundtrack, just to show her appreciation, right?
Maurice reported to Drogo that Sir Godot has someone he chats with every day, and it would be best to dig him out and have him appear directly in Shadow of Mordor.

Zhuo Ge originally wanted to check the identity of that account directly. All accounts in the social circle need to be verified by real names in the background.

It was too late, and Sir Godot was afraid that if it was found out that he was a swindler who came to cheat people, he would not be able to bear it.

Online dating? The fantasy is beautiful.

Unexpectedly, reality is more abstract than the man who picks his toes.

Drogo carefully observed the chat between the two middle-aged online lovers.

I have to say, the content is really middle-aged.

For example, I like to use soybeans to laugh, thumbs up, and a rose.

Rowling typed and deleted what she input, deleted it and typed it again, pondered over each sentence several times, and even bit her nails nervously.

The image of the Drow Queen has been severely damaged.

Apparently, this was a one-sided and transparent online romance, and Rowling knew who Godot was.

Of course she knew, both were in Feilin Good Songs, one was a mentor and the other was a director.

I'm shocked that a member of a variety show actually did that kind of thing with the director just to appear on the show.

Drogo has figured out a way to take the show to the next level.

But he is not so wicked as to be that bad.

The wording of the two people's conversation was very literary, and their cultural level was several degrees higher than that of Drogo and Flynn.

It seems that Rowling wanted to pretend to be casual and mentioned the beauty of imperfection.

Encourage Sir Gordo and hint that you don't care.

But that's a bit too euphemistic.

I wonder if Sir Gordo noticed it.

Love stories between long-lived and short-lived species are not uncommon.

This kind of relationship has the well-known disadvantage that one of the parties is destined to die early.

At the same time, there is also a point that many people have not discovered, that is, for long-lived people, this relationship can always remain fresh.

After all, for Rowling, the remaining decades of Sir Godot were just "a sweet and short love affair."

Drogo decided to assist.

Eighty percent of the reason is because I want to make "The Intouchables" better.

The remaining 92% of the reason was that he wanted to watch the fun.

It was so much fun.

He couldn't wait to see Sir Godot's reaction when the two revealed their identities.

Drogo landed, "Ahem."

Pretend to cough.

Ms. Rowling was startled and hurriedly put away her phone.

"I suddenly have a good idea," said Drogo. "As the composer of this film, you have worked so hard to complete it. Why don't you play a minor role?"

"Why would Ms. Rowling appear in The Shadow of Devil? She never likes that. You are so offensive, boss." Kailan said directly.

In her opinion, Ms. Rowling must be a pure performer who is obsessed with art and doesn't care about anything else.

"Okay." Rowling answered without hesitation.

Kailan's eyes widened, unable to believe what he heard.

"Great."

Drogo said, noticing Rowling's hands rubbing the edge of her clothes.

No, she's hundreds of years old, why is she acting like a nervous girl?
