Chapter 35 If you don’t give up, I would like to be my uncle.
Lin Zhibai is a punctual person. He arrived at the 13th Music Department of Shinhwa Entertainment at two o'clock in the afternoon, said hello to his sister, and went to the recording studio to meet his old friend, the recording engineer Lao Wang.
Meet Lin Zhibai.
Recording engineer Lao Wang seemed to be more excited than last time, but his voice was lowered for some reason:
“Teacher Baidi!”
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Lin Zhibai nodded and found a seat to sit down.
Lao Wang smiled and said: "You don't know how many people have asked me about you recently, not only our Music Department 13, but also people from other departments. It makes me dare not call you out loud..."
“Did you say it?”
“Of course I didn’t say anything, not even my own department. I was just out of curiosity. Other departments must have had some thoughts when they came to inquire.”
Said.
Lao Wang muttered: "I have worked as a sound recordist in the studio of Department 13 for so many years, and I am very loyal to Director Lin."
"Me too."
Lin Zhibai said with a smile, my sister’s popularity and prestige among the Thirteenth Division are indeed very high.
Lao Wang seemed very happy after hearing this: "Congratulations to Teacher Bai Di for winning the first place in the season rankings. You have shown great power for two consecutive seasons. Now we are discussing you in our department!"
“The list has not been locked yet.”
Today is September 28th, and the season rankings are locked at the end of the month. However, as far as the data is concerned, unless there is a singer who comes with the king of songs and the queen of songs, the champion of this season is none other than Lin Zhibai.
“Teacher Bai Di is so steady.”
Lao Wang praised, and then saw someone arriving outside, he stood up and said:
“It’s time to start work.”
Lin Zhibai nodded and started the audition for "Moonlight".
Probably because the auditions for the first two songs went very well, Lin Zhibai was also looking forward to it today.
However, today the singers of the thirteen parts took turns to perform, but Lin Zhibai never found the right voice.
“This song is a bit difficult to sing.”
Lao Wang smiled bitterly, so many singers came to audition, but none of them was suitable.
"continue."
Lin Zhibai didn’t have any good ideas, so he simply called Zhang Xiyang and Lin Shouzhuo over to try, even though these two people had already been screened out by his sister in advance due to style issues.
Zhang Xiyang came soon after.
The result of the audition is still not good.
Zhang Xiyang's singing is of course no problem, and the transposition is handled very well, but his personal style does not meet Lin Zhibai's requirements.
“I didn’t help you.”
Zhang Xiyang seemed a little regretful, but Lin Zhibai shook his head and said: "We will have opportunities to cooperate in the future, but this time I made your trip in vain."
“It doesn’t matter.”
Zhang Xiyang smiled and said: "You don't have to be polite if you follow me. You can come to me for an audition at any time. Just contact me via Fetion."
"good."
Shortly after Zhang Xiyang left, Lin Shouzhuo also arrived.
The result of Lin Shouzhuo's audition surprised Lin Zhibai.
Lin Shouzhuo actually sang pretty well. Although he was still not qualified for this song, his voice seemed to have changed a bit from last time, and the tone was brighter than when he sang "Xiaochou".
“Your voice has changed?”
Lin Zhibai asked a little strangely.
Lin Shouzhuo said sheepishly: "Last time I sang "Xiaochou", I deliberately suppressed my voice, so it sounded more mellow. Mainly because I felt that the song was not suitable for the song because the voice was too thin. In fact, my real voice is brighter, and most popular I can sing all songs, and I usually adjust my voice appropriately according to the style of music.”
“Is that so?”
Lin Zhibai was thoughtful. It seems that if he has new songs in the future, he can let Lin Shouzhuo try them out. He has many possibilities for his voice, and is not limited to the style of low-pitched singing. This is a very easy-to-use tool. .
“But it’s very difficult for me to sing this song.”
Lin Shouzhuo felt that he had no chance, so he simply recommended to Lin Zhibai: "If uncle can't find a suitable singer in our thirteenth department, I have someone to recommend, and that person should be quite suitable for this song."
“Uncle?”
Lin Zhibai looked at Lin Shouzhuo with a half-smile.
His voice suddenly became tense, "Bai Baibai...Teacher Bai Di...because my seniority is...because I accidentally let it slip...I'm sorry! I was wrong! I was abrupt!"
Lin Zhibai smiled and said, "It's okay." Lin Shouzhuo had been frightened just now. Seeing that Lin Zhibai was unexpectedly not angry at all, he felt ecstatic and his voice suddenly became excited: "I want you to be one generation older than me. Our family has also received favors from your father, no matter what you call me, in my heart you are my uncle, and I rely on my uncle to be where I am today!"
Lin Zhibai: “…”
He inexplicably thought of a classic saying, "If you don't abandon me, I will be your adoptive father."
“Call me whatever you want.”
Lin Zhibai said: "Continuing with the topic just now, who do you think is more suitable for this song?"
“Sun Gu!”
Lin Shouzhuo named a name: "This Sun Gu is a singer from the Eight Departments. We both joined Shinhwa Entertainment back and forth, so we have a pretty good relationship. It's just that he debuted earlier and is now a second-tier singer. If my uncle is interested, , I’ll contact him immediately!”
Lin Zhibai laughed.
This guy is good at crawling along the pole. After observing his words and expressions, he saw that he was not angry, so when he opened his mouth to call his uncle, he didn't even slap his mouth.
“You try it.”
Lin Zhibai nodded slightly.
Sister said before that singers from other departments can also cooperate. At the worst, they can just share some benefits with other departments. Lin Zhibai doesn’t want to do this, but he must always be responsible for the songs.
“Uncle, wait a moment!”
Lin Shouzhuo took out his cell phone and called directly.
When Lin Zhibai tried out thirteen singers who were good at this music style and still couldn't find a suitable singer, the "Sun Gu" in Lin Shouzhuo's words finally arrived.
“Hello, I’m Sun Gu.”
Sun Gu greeted him politely after arriving, but he was not too formal.
Although Bai Di has performed very well in the past two seasons, he is still a second-tier singer. He has entered the top ten of the season list seven or eight times. His status in the industry is still very good. Facing this new composer who has performed brilliantly in the past two months Home, somewhat confident.
"Hello."
Lin Zhibai looked at the other party. Sun Gu should be less than thirty years old. He looked very young. One of his eyes was covered by his bangs. In the words of his previous life, he was a little bit unattractive, but at this age he could reach the second tier of the music industry. It can be said that the potential is extremely high.
“Let’s audition first.”
Lin Zhibai took out a short excerpt of "Moonlight" and asked the other party to have a try.
Sun Gu read a short piece of melody and lyrics, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He really liked this style of music. Very few composers would write such songs that required crazy transposition, so he always felt that he couldn't. Fully display your personal characteristics.
I didn’t expect Bai Di from Thirteen Parts to be able to write a song of this style. Although I don’t know the quality of the entire song, it’s rare to encounter this style so I’ll try my best to win it.
“Teacher Baidi!”
He once again looked at Lin Zhibai's young and handsome face, which seemed more suitable for debuting as a star than his own. His attitude seemed to have changed, and he said eagerly:
“I can start anytime!”
Lin Zhibai nodded and arranged for Sun Gu to enter the recording studio and start singing. After singing a few words, he and Lao Wang looked at each other.
“This is really good.”
Lao Wang smiled: "Although I have never collaborated with Sun Gu, his style is like this. Some people joke that when you sing his songs, you feel like you are about to die at any time, but for this song, his singing method is very suitable."
"Um."
Lin Zhibai also had some concerns in his mind. Instead of directly saying whether it was okay or not, he took out the phone first and said hello to his sister.
“Sun Gu of the Eight Divisions?”
After receiving Lin Zhibai's call, Lin Xi smiled and said: "It will be more troublesome to use singers from other departments, but there is no problem at all in the Eighth Department. My relationship with Lao Liu, the director of the Eighth Department, is still OK. Just let me know. You can Just feel free to record."
Is this so?
Lin Zhibai was relieved. Although the audition took a long time, he finally found a suitable singer.
Hence your back against a big tree to enjoy the shade.
If it weren't for the three major levels and the recruitment of a large number of good singers, it would be really difficult for Lin Zhibai to find a suitable singer for "Moonlight".
“Then it’s Sun Gu.”
Lin Zhibai asked his sister again: "Is Party A in a hurry?"
Lin Xidao: "Party A's drama will be broadcast at the end of next month. The specific time is still being negotiated, but it is best to release this song on the third of next month. They will have a big promotional event that day."
“That’s no problem.”
Lin Zhibai hung up the phone and suddenly realized with hindsight:
Next month’s season rankings, do you seem to be running into the field again?
Please give me a monthly pass
