Chapter 110 109. The Queen's hit song
Sony signed Wang Fei to a four-album contract, not for fun, but to make money is the first problem they need to face.
The first album has been confirmed to be mainly a cover of Wang Fei's classic old songs, and the copyright has been almost negotiated, but this is just an appetizer in Sony's eyes.
After all, to create a sensation and sell well, you still have to come up with some new products so that fans will buy it.
So Sony found Zhang Yadong again, and together with Wang Fei herself, the two worked together to produce the second album.
In this album, Wang Fei even has to undertake part of the lyrics and music creation. This is also because the recent Taiwan singer-songwriter album has been very popular, so it is obvious that they also hope to increase the sales of the album by using the queen's creation of songs as a selling point.
In addition to the album, Wang Fei also has to prepare for the concert, in addition to the fan meeting, autograph session... Obviously, the queen's money is not so easy to make. While Sony paid a large amount of signing fees, it also arranged a full schedule for the queen.
To be honest, Wang Fei really feels very tired.
When people are tired, they are easily irritable. An irritable person will also become harsh when dealing with things. At least Wang Fei feels that she is such a person. The songs that are obviously acceptable do not sound very good to Wang Fei at this moment. After listening to hundreds of works for a week, she actually selected four songs. The key is that Wang Fei is not particularly satisfied with these songs. So far, even the title song has not been determined.
Zhang Yadong is also very troubled by this.
Although he and Wang Fei are both producers, the actual work is actually done by him. If the album production is delayed, Sony will only find trouble with him in the end.
"The song "Tea" just now is actually not bad. Do you want to listen to it again?" Zhang Yadong suggested.
"No, I don't like it." Wang Fei said expressionlessly.
Zhang Yadong sighed and did not persuade him again. Instead, he continued to take out a demo, hoping that this song would satisfy Wang Fei.
"'More and More Confused'."
"I don't understand anything..." The demo was put into the player, and the music started. Zhang Yadong was going to rub his brows and relax during the prelude. After all, he was exhausted working with Wang Fei recently. But to his surprise, the beginning of the song made him pause instantly.
The girl's lazy voice at the beginning, combined with the unique and charming melody, almost instantly captured Zhang Yadong's heart, making him alert and listen carefully.
"When I was 22, I recalled how much I wanted to fall in love. My mother said to let it come. However, when I was 32, I found that I didn't have much heart to wait. It lost some color.
Love more if you can't get it, ignore if it comes too easily. In fact, who doesn't want to meet true love, love is absolute, love is frank? I thought I would understand it when I met it, but every time it only left a glimpse of emotion. I don't understand love more and more..."
After listening to the whole roar, Zhang Yadong's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but look at Wang Fei on the side. As a result, he saw that the queen who had been slumped in the chair for a long time actually sat up straight at this time, looking like she was listening to the song seriously, and even ignored Zhang Yadong's eyes.
"Love more if you can't get it, ignore if it comes too easily. In fact, who doesn't want to meet true love, love is absolute, love is frank..."
The song repeated the climax again. This time, Wang Fei even began to sing along quietly, and finally had a smile on the corner of her mouth. Zhang Yadong finally felt relieved when he saw this scene. Obviously, Wang Fei liked this song.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yadong took the lyrics again and read it carefully from the beginning.
As he read it carefully, Zhang Yadong's face became more and more surprised. It was horrifying to think that the content of this lyric was so consistent with Wang Fei's love journey in the past ten years. Should we say that this lyricist was opportunistic, or should we praise him for being a soulmate of Wang Fei?
Thinking of this, Zhang Yadong looked at the lyricist column, and the name written was Nie Wei. What surprised him was that the name written in the composer column was also Nie Wei.
Nie Wei? This name was a little unfamiliar to Zhang Yadong. When he turned on the computer and checked it, the associated words that popped up all pointed to an actor who was only 18 years old.
"Is it the same name?" Zhang Yadong didn't believe it. He took out his mobile phone and said hello to Wang Fei, and went outside the recording room to confirm the news.
Three minutes later, Zhang Yadong came back with a look of surprise.
"What's wrong?" Looking at Zhang Yadong's expression, Wang Fei asked curiously.
"It's okay." Zhang Yadong shook his head. The reason for his expression was that he was too surprised by the confirmed news.
Since Zhang Yadong said it was okay, Wang Fei didn't ask any more questions. She was more interested in the composer of the song.
"Who wrote the lyrics and music for this song?"
"Nie Wei."
"He wrote both the lyrics and music?"
"Yes, there are two more of his songs. Do you want to listen?" Zhang Yadong suddenly asked.
"Of course." Wang Fei was obviously interested and agreed immediately.
Soon, the two songs "Legend" and "Forgiveness" were also played.
"Tell me again, who are the composers of these songs?" Wang Fei and Zhang Yadong were silent for a long time after listening to these songs. After a while, Wang Fei suddenly asked again.
"Nie Wei." Zhang Yadong replied.
"Nie Wei, Nie Wei, I remember it." Wang Fei repeated the name to himself a few times and remembered it silently in his heart.
Seeing Wang Fei's current state, Zhang Yadong knew very well that Nie Wei had obviously been noticed by Wang Fei. As expected, Wang Fei soon asked whether Nie Wei could be the producer.
"I think it might be a little difficult." Zhang Yadong said with some embarrassment, pointing to the computer screen beside him, where the webpage on it was still on the information he had just searched.
"Nie Wei's main job is actually an actor, and he seems to be going to report to a new crew soon, so I'm afraid he doesn't have time to be the producer of our album." Zhang Yadong explained, and Wang Fei widened her eyes in surprise.
"He's an actor?" It's no wonder that the queen was so surprised that she lost her composure. In her imagination, the person who could write those works should be a person with great musical literacy, but she could never have imagined that although this person's job was also in the entertainment industry, he was an actor who had almost no intersection with the music industry.
What surprised her even more was that this person was only 18 years old.
If Wang Fei was so surprised at ordinary times, Zhang Yadong would definitely laugh a few words, but he didn't at this moment, because he was still surprised at this moment.
"What a pity." After five minutes, Wang Fei pulled his eyes away from the news about Nie Wei on the Internet. After sincerely saying "what a pity", Wang Fei said directly to Zhang Yadong: "The title song I want for the new album is Nie Wei's "More and More I Don't Understand"!"
