Hexagonal God

Chapter 36 Recording Album
The two got into a taxi, and Bai Mengqiao was still excited.

"Momo, your singing is really good. I'm not lying to you. I think we can even release it directly after recording. You're a natural singer, you know that?"

Su Mo smiled, feeling a little excited.

If this approach works, then he is not just recording a song.

Bai Mengqiao was acting out of character, chattering with Su Mo all the way, and soon arrived at a recording studio.

Su Mo discovered that this place was close to Sichuan Conservatory of Music, which should be Bai Mengqiao's alma mater.

There were many students from the nearby Sichuan Conservatory of Music, which also led to the prosperity of the music industry.

There are dozens of recording studios of all sizes that can be rented for a fee.

Bai Mengqiao brought Su Mo to a larger recording studio and began bargaining with the owner.

The rental fee for this large recording studio is 400 per hour, while smaller ones cost 300 and 200.

There are also comprehensive services, such as post-production mixing of songs, which costs 200 per hour.

Bai Mengqiao just wanted to spend less money, so he tried to bargain with the store owner.

Su Mo didn't want to wait any longer, so he gently pulled Bai Mengqiao and asked the owner, "How much does it cost to record an album?"

"Albums usually have ten songs on one. If you're sure, we can charge you 1800 for post-production, but the rental fee can't be changed because no one knows how long it will take you to finish recording a song."

Su Mo made the decision directly: "No need for 1800, I'll give you 2000. Ask the tuner to be more attentive and speed up the process."

"Okay, boss, you're so generous. Let's do this. When the album is finished, I can give you the album cover and some photos from the live performance."

Seeing that a big customer had arrived, the store owner was very motivated and immediately cleared out the largest recording studio for them.

And we also have a tuner who is responsible for the equipment.

Bai Mengqiao was obviously an expert as well, and he quickly led Su Mo to get started.

"Momo, write out your lyrics and sing it again. Can you write your own music?"

Su Mo spread his hands and said, "Sister Xiao Qiao, I'm not a professional. You can compose the music."

"Okay, then you can just sing and write the lyrics."

Bai Mengqiao and the tuner started to get busy. Su Mo copied the lyrics and handed them to Bai Mengqiao, and the next step was recording.

Generally speaking, recording is a relatively tedious process.

First of all, we need to look at the singer's condition, and then any flaws during the recording process need to be corrected.

The creation of a song is often the result of repeated and meticulous craftsmanship, and it is common to record dozens or even hundreds of times.

Those lyrics and music also went through many revisions before they finally became the finished product.

But this is not necessary with Su Mo.

What he knew were all fine works that were widely circulated in later generations and were already finished products.

He just needs to ensure his condition and sing it smoothly.

Perhaps the only thing that is a little difficult is the use of equipment and keeping up with the rhythm of the accompaniment.

The time difference between the first two times was not well controlled, so Su Mo simply used a ten-fold scroll.

After reviewing it for the third time, by the fourth time, I could sing it smoothly.

The fifth time, the finished product is out!

All in all, it took no more than an hour and a half!

This speed shocked Bai Mengqiao. After listening to it several times, she admitted that this single called "Rongcheng" was almost flawless.

Bai Mengqiao was amazed and gave Su Mo a thumbs up.

"Momo, you are this."

Su Mo smiled and turned on the system.

[Congratulations to the host for unlocking the high-paying career, Singer, Entry Level. Corresponding career: Second-tier Singer. After system evaluation, the annual income of a second-tier singer ranges from one to five million yuan. The host's annual salary is set at three million yuan, and the daily wage is 8220 yuan.]

Your bank card with the last number 5588 has received 32880 yuan, with a balance of 240490 yuan.

This income made Su Mo very happy. Now his basic daily salary has reached 47160 yuan.

And this is just for entry-level singers, what if it’s a proficient level?

Su Mo became more and more excited. Under Bai Mengqiao's surprised gaze, he picked up the pen and wrote the second song.

Little apple.

When Bai Mengqiao saw the title of this song, he smiled and thought it was very funny.

But when Su Mo quickly finished writing and sang it, Bai Mengqiao was shocked again. This song reminded her of a song that was very popular in Korea last year.

Gangnam style.

The two songs have the same effect, they are catchy, have a brisk rhythm and a cheerful atmosphere.

If some well-known singers sang this, it would definitely become an instant hit.

The most important thing is that she has never heard this song before. It should be originally written by Su Mo.

Bai Mengqiao was full of curiosity, but she held back and didn't ask, patiently recording a song for Su Mo.

This time the recording process was smoother than the first song. Su Mo, who was already very familiar with the equipment, completed the recording of the entire song on the third time.

Then, Su Mo recorded another confession balloon song.

The songs recorded by Su Mo were all annual sales champions in the later period, and their classic status is self-evident.

The continuous king bombs have made Bai Mengqiao a little dizzy, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Su Mo was as if he saw God.

Su Mo looked at the time and saw that it was still an hour until noon.

I should be able to finish four songs this morning.

Su Mo thought about it and decided to collaborate with Bai Mengqiao on a song.

Picking up the pen, Su Mo wrote a poem called "Liang Liang".

Then, together with Bai Mengqiao, we started to try a duet.

I have to say that Bai Mengqiao's singing level is really high. At least Su Mo feels that her level is above his own.

Su Mo could sing so well only because he had a good voice and was familiar with the melodies of these songs. If he changed to an unfamiliar song without using the scroll, he would be at a loss.

The song was recorded when the two collaborated for the fourth time.

When Bai Mengqiao sang "Three Lives and Three Worlds Seemed Like a Dream", her tears couldn't help but fall.

The empathy in the song deeply moved her.

She stood there until the recording was completed, unable to extricate herself from the sad mood of the song for a long time.

"Momo, there must be a sad story behind this song."

Su Mo smiled but didn't answer. In fact, he still felt a little embarrassed about plagiarizing a classic song from later generations.

I don’t know what kind of impact these songs will cause if he really releases them.

However, Su Mo has no plans to do so for the time being, and he doesn't want to be a professional singer.

The four songs were recorded and it was noon.

Seeing that the time agreed with Zhou Zhenwu was approaching, Su Mo planned to take Bai Mengqiao out for dinner.

After we finish our business, it won’t be too late to come over for recording in the afternoon.

Just as he was about to leave, Bai Mengqiao received a call and turned around and walked out.

Su Mo faintly heard some quarreling outside. About five minutes later, Bai Mengqiao came back with a bad look on his face.

She said to Su Mo apologetically, "Momo, I'm sorry, I can't accompany you to dinner. There's an emergency at home, and I have to go back to Mianyang."

Su Mo looked at her expression and asked with concern: "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"It's okay, it's all just small matters. I can handle it myself."

Bai Mengqiao thought for a moment and said, "I can't make it back today. If you've finished recording your album, please send it to me. I'm really looking forward to the new songs in it."

"Well, I'll definitely send it to you."

"Goodbye then."

Bai Mengqiao left in a hurry.

Su Mo had no way to interfere in her private affairs now, so he could only let it go for the time being.

After leaving the recording studio, I paid the bill to the boss and told him that he would come back in the afternoon.

Then he also took a taxi and went to the hot pot city on Baicao Road.

This is the biggest purpose of his coming here. If this matter is negotiated, he will have a legal source of income.

Unlocking the singer's profession today also gave Su Mo great confidence.

He was now quite confident about what to do next.
