Just after eight o'clock on Friday morning, Tong Yichun called Yang Jingxing: "Xiao Yang, have you arrived at the company?"

Yang Jingxing said: "It's almost there, it will take about ten minutes."

Tong Yichun said: "Then I'll wait for you, maybe you'll arrive first."

Yang Jingxing said: "I will do it as soon as possible."

Tong Yichun said generously: "It doesn't matter, it's not time yet."

When Yang Jingxing arrived, he found Tong Yichun sitting alone in the furnished front desk lounge area reading a magazine. She didn't feel like an entertainer.

Xu Lanxin reported in time: "Miss Tong has been waiting for a while, Pang Xi hasn't arrived yet... I called, he will be there soon."

Tong Yichun had already stood up: "It doesn't matter, I'm early." She put down the cover of Cheng Yaoyao's fashion and lifestyle magazine.

Yang Jingxing still apologized: "Sorry, let's go up."

While going upstairs, Tong Yichun explained that she likes to get up early. She wakes up at six o'clock and goes for a long run, which will make her feel energetic all day long.

Yang Jingxing looked at Tong Yichun with envy: "I can feel it."

Tong Yichun asked: "You also like sports, right?"

Yang Jingxing felt ashamed: "I don't like it much, just take it as a task."

Tong Yichun chuckled: "Only girls like boys if they have a figure."

Yang Jingxing hehe: "Mostly because of this."

Tong Yichun chuckled and encouraged: "If you persist, there will be many other benefits."

Before Pang Xi arrived, Yang Jingxing served him himself and asked Tong Yichun what he wanted to drink. Tong Yichun said no, he had already drank down below, so it was better to save time and watch Yang Jingxing's new song first.

Although Tong Yichun had no difficulty reading the pure melody that had not yet been arranged, and was quite satisfied with Li Xin's lyrics, she did not express any opinions and decided to stay at the meeting for discussion. At present, she would rather listen to "Poetry Heart"

sample.

Yang Jingxing turned on the equipment and asked, "Do you know Li Ying?"

Tong Yichun nodded: "I'm not familiar with her. She has never sung to me, but I know she sings well."

Yang Jingxing also nodded.

As soon as the demo started playing, Tong Yichun nodded: "I like the sound of this pad, it has a nostalgic feel."

Yang Jingxing said: "It's done in a hurry, you can decide later."

After listening to the demo with great immersion, Tong Yichun thought about it carefully and commented happily: "The overall feeling is very good, the characteristics and feelings are also there..."

Yang Jingxing asked: "Is there something missing?"

Tong Yichun smiled: "Let's arrange the music... I have an idea. Can I add something very distinctive and have the characteristics of that era?" This was her previous idea.

Yang Jingxing climbed up the pole and said, "How about a chorus? Change the bottom note into a choir form?"

Tong Yichun smiled and nodded vigorously: "It must be good."

In the digital age, there is no need to hire a choir to do this kind of thing. Yang Jingxing immediately used the workbench to do it and replaced the original bottom tone with the choir's humming. Although it was rough and had a strong electronic flavor, it was not a big problem when used as a demo.

Pang Xi also arrived, looking very busy outside, and seeing the opportunity, she opened the door and asked the two musicians if they needed anything.

Yang Jingxing finished it quickly. After listening to it again, Tong Yichun obviously liked it more.

However, Yang Jingxing still suggested: "What do you think about using a child's voice?"

Tong Yichun tilted her head to think, and said, "That's okay, another feeling... Let's decide on this later."

Yang Jingxing added: "The singing style of the demo is more formal, a bit like a fusion of ethnic bel cantos, and it is not as warm and peaceful as your tone..."

Tong Yichun smiled: "It's okay...but it doesn't sound close enough, and it feels a bit formal."

Yang Jingxing nodded.

Tong Yichun added: "Actually, I don't like to use chorus, but this song really needs it."

Yang Jingxing said: "You can try it. It has a good background and foreshadowing effect. For example, in "Falling", use a baritone..."

It was not difficult for Yang Jingxing to show off his ideas and professional knowledge in front of Tong Yichun. Tong Yichun didn't seem disgusted and was willing to discuss it.

This can be regarded as the first time that Tong Yichun listened to Yang Jingxing's opinions and ideas on each of her songs alone, and it felt that Tong Yichun's works had more things worth exploring and paying attention to based on the discussions in several previous meetings.

.

After hearing about her close friend, Tong Yichun was a little excited: "Yes, yes, what I was looking for at that time was feeling, so I wrote a few songs in more than two years, because I required myself to express my feelings and what I really wanted to express."

So that your music can have vitality and move people, this is really not just a nice thing to say."

Yang Jingxing agreed: "Our responsibility is to try our best to match your feelings and what you want to express, but I am still far away. I spent a lot of time with two teachers, Li Xin and Wu Yuan, on Tuesday, and they can understand and appreciate you better. Li

Teacher Xin just lamented your words - she didn't understand the various passers-by in life until she realized that she was more moved by herself. She felt very good."

Tong Yichun smiled: "I also like her lyrics very much, they are quite atmospheric... But this song may seem gray on the surface, but what I want to express is actually a positive mentality, but this mentality

Will be more mature."

Yang Jingxing was ashamed: "Frankly speaking, what you said is a bit untrue."

Tong Yichun heheed tolerantly: "So I said your strength lies in melody. "It's Us" is so nice... But I believe melody is also an expression. You must have something of your own. I also thought about it, "

"In the Heart of the Wind" did you use your original arrangement?"

Yang Jingxing smiled and suggested: "From the perspective of my current responsibilities, I suggest not. The violin is more suitable than the erhu."

Tong Yichun smiled: "Let's talk about it later, don't rush this now, record it later."

At about 8:40, Pang Xi opened the door and said as quietly as possible: "Mr. Shen, the arranger, is here..."

Yang Jingxing glanced outside: "Where are you?"

Pang Xi explained: "He asked the front desk to tell you."

Tong Yichun understood: "Ask him to go directly to the editorial office to wait for us. It's almost nine o'clock."

Pang Xi nodded.

After looking at the time to set off and arriving at the conference room, Tong Yichun explained to everyone waiting: "I arrived earlier and went to Manager Yang to chat for a while and understand the progress."

Yi Ban was thankful: "Fortunately, Manager Yang is so positive."

Tong Yichun smiled: "Of course it's good to be positive, so thank you all."

Gan Kai asked Yang Jingxing: "Do I need to add anything else?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I haven't made any progress, it's up to you."

Tong Yichun smiled: "Manager Gan is joking."

Today’s session will have a greater sense of accomplishment, because there are several demos that can be listened to. Although Shen Yibo and Hao Shengfeng only have midi accompaniment, everyone sitting here can understand the lyrics by comparing them.

In comparison, Hao Shengfeng's arrangement seems fresh and smart. Although it is not complicated in terms of technique, there are ideas and creativity, such as some unexpected percussion, and the use of cajon and xylophone, which is obviously thoughtful.

Shen Yibo's arrangement seems to be more academic. Although the demo is a bit rough, Chang Yiming has realized that he needs to hire a good double bass player. The bass is richer and the performance from beginning to end is not simple.

Gan Kaicheng and Tong Yichun both thought it was good, and naturally others also agreed.

Wu Yuan also praised Shen Yibo: "The piano solo is very good, it has a fresh sense of technique, it doesn't go off topic and it's not exaggerated."

Shen Yibo was proud of Yang Jingxing: "Originally I just wanted to get a set of chords, but when I heard you playing the piano that day, I couldn't control my hand anymore."

Yang Jingxing was shameless: "So I think it's good too."

Everyone laughed, but Zhong Ing-wen's evil smile was a bit exaggerated, but he soon realized it.

Gan Kaicheng asked Yang Jingxing again: "Where is your homework?"

After listening to the demo of "Poetry Heart", Li Xin first praised Yang Jingxing: "It's very good."

Chang Yiming also expressed his rare opinion: "It feels right, and the arrangement is also the same."

Tong Yichun happily explained: "This is a proposition composition. After the meeting that day, Manager Gan and Manager Yang set the tone together. I was also present. What I feel most deeply is the talent and tacit understanding of the two..."

Gan Kai smiled: "Yichun is being humble. The three of us did it together. It was a last-minute idea and the effect is good."

Shen Yibo asked Yang Jingxing: "Gong Tiao?"

Yang Jingxing nodded.

Chang Yiming was even more powerful: "There are changes in tone, six tones."

Wu Yuan said to Li Xin: "It's better than I expected. It doesn't feel cliche."

Hao Shengfeng hummed for a while before laughing and saying: "It seems to be the work of Manager Gan. Manager Yang is too young to be so old-fashioned."

Tong Yichun hahaha: "You are really wrong. Manager Yang later revised this paragraph, so it looks like this now..."

Everyone always thinks this song is good, because they are not new to the industry, and they all know that it is impossible for every song to become a classic.

Wu Yuan also said: "Times have changed. Even if the golden songs were placed now, if the emotional accumulation of those years were taken away, the feeling would not be that strong."

As for the arrangement, Gan Kaicheng decisively or hastily decided to add some children's chorus based on Yang Jingxing's composition.

Then there was the new song prepared by Yang Jingxing. Because he wrote the lyrics first and then composed the music, Li Xin expressed his opinion first: "When he gave it to me that day, the first impression was that it was relatively bland because he didn't sing it either. But then Yuan'er and I After listening to it carefully, I found that this song is heartfelt. Yuan'er sang it all night. The more I listened to it, the more I liked it, and it became more and more intense."

Yang Jingxing admired her: "I can only say that Sister Yuan has great singing skills."
