Entertaining Children

Chapter 765 Ordinary Friends

Although Chen Manli is not a professional musician, as the artist director of a large entertainment company, some of the artists she directly manages have transformed from singers to film actors. She has also seen many musicians write songs and produce, arrange and soundtrack of.

She was surprised enough to hear that Xiao Yao wrote a complete song in one night. Now I heard that Xiao Yao not only completed the arrangement and soundtrack of that song in the few hours she was away, but also She started to arrange another song, she really couldn't believe it. Unless, that other song was written long ago!

Generally speaking, if you can complete the arrangement and soundtrack of a song in one afternoon, you are already a very good musician. Chen Manli admits that Xiao Yao is a very good musician. After all, Xiao Yao has already won many music awards at a young age, and the results are there. You can do a good job with the arrangement and soundtrack of that song. However, Xu Wenxiang clearly said that Xiao Yao wrote another song for Yang Shiyun, not that Xiao Yao produced another song for Yang Shiyun.

"Doesn't it take Xiao Yao time to write songs?!" Chen Manli suspected that she was hallucinating!

"Mr. Xu, you said that Xiao Yao wrote another song for Ah Yun?" Chen Manli asked Xu Wenxiang with confirmation, "Just now, did you write it here?"

"No, I actually wrote it before, but I just took it out just now." Seeing Chen Manli's hellish expression, Xiao Yao smiled and waved his hands.

Just as Chen Manli breathed a sigh of relief, she saw Xu Wenxiang slap Xiao Yao on the back and said to her: "Don't listen to his big talk! Although I really want to think that this is a song he wrote before, in fact , This song probably took more than ten minutes to write just now!"

"Basically? You're not sure?" Chen Manli asked with a puzzled face, "What's going on?"

"It's like this!" Xu Wenxiang said, "When he made the arrangement and soundtrack of "Wedding Invitation Street" just now, the whole process was very smooth, and it seemed that he didn't need to think about it. The soundtrack recorded by each instrument is the same. From this appearance, it is obvious that there is already a complete arrangement plan. But I really can’t believe that a song can be produced after sitting for more than ten minutes without touching anything. A complete arrangement plan. So after he completed the soundtrack of "Wedding Invitation Street", I asked him if he had already thought about the arrangement plan."

"And then?" Chen Manli asked further.

"He said he just sat there for more than ten minutes and thought it up. If I don't believe it, just assume that he finished the arrangement last night." Xu Wenxiang said, "This kid looks like he doesn't believe it. , the attitude is very arrogant."

"Arrogance? But why do I feel that your relationship seems to be very good.

"Chen Manli said strangely.

She clearly saw Xu Wenxiang slap Xiao Yao on the back just now, and Xiao Yao was smiling, not at all annoyed, not at all like Xu Wenxiang said that he disliked Xiao Yao's arrogant attitude.

"Even if he did all the arrangements last night, the efficiency is a bit scary." Xu Wenxiang didn't answer Chen Manli, but continued on his own, "So I said it was impossible for him to compose lyrics and music overnight. And make the arrangement well. Maybe they have been to our Hong Kong Island before, have been to Lee Tung Street, know the history and stories of Wedding Tie Street, and have written this song long ago, just waiting to meet Ah Yun, Then let Ah Yun bring him to us to show off, and deliberately stimulate him!"

"Mr. Xu, if you speak like this, it will appear that you, a senior, have no manners!" Chen Manli smiled wryly, "And then?"

"Then this kid gave me a blank look," Xu Wenxiang said with a smile, "Just because I can't do it doesn't mean he can't either! Don't talk about it overnight, if he wants to, he can compose a song with lyrics and music in half an hour." He has already said so, of course I will not let him go, so I asked him to write a song for me on the spot."

"So he wrote it?" Chen Manli said, "Is it true that he wrote it in half an hour in front of your face?"

"En!" Xu Wenxiang nodded.

"This is really a genius!" Chen Manli shook her head and sighed.

"There's more." Xu Wenxiang said, "Do you think he just wrote a random song?"

"Anything else?" Chen Manli asked strangely.

"This kid is a famous music creator, and he is also famous for his good memory. I heard that he also has a habit of singing original and new songs on various occasions." Xu Wenxiang said, "He came up with a song within half an hour. The lyrics and arrangement of the song, who knows whether he wrote it now or wrote an unpublished stock before? So I set the title for him."

"Prescribe a title?" Chen Manli was a little dumbfounded, and smiled wryly, "It is already difficult to compose a song in half an hour on the spot, and you still stipulate a title. Isn't this deliberately tricking him?"

"Isn't this kid a genius? He has an arrogant attitude, so what are you afraid of if you play tricks?" Xu Wenxiang smiled indifferently, "I didn't expect this kid to be sharper than I thought. He has already seen that I deliberately stimulated him , not afraid that I would trick him. He not only agreed to let me set the title, but also increased the difficulty himself, saying that since it is in Hong Kong Island, he should write another Cantonese song according to the title I set.”

"Another Cantonese song?" Chen Manli didn't know what to say, "Is this a response to our suspicion that he wrote "Wedding Invitation Street" just now?"

"Then what question did you ask him?" Chen Manli asked curiously.

"I didn't make it too difficult for him." Xu Wenxiang smiled, "I just took out a piece of paper, drew a circle on the paper, and asked him to write a song!"

"He sat in a chair and thought for about ten minutes, and then he wrote a song called "Yuan". Looking at the lyrics, it is indeed in Cantonese." Xu Wenxiang said, "I only read the lyrics and music twice, and he Start dictating to me how to arrange the music, and plan to use those instruments for the soundtrack. Calculating the time, it really didn't take half an hour."

"Proposition creation, one song in half an hour, including lyrics, music and arrangement?" Chen Manli was completely speechless.

It is true that no one can create a song in half an hour, but the quality of the song must be recognized by the record company and ready to be recorded and released, but very few. The song "Wedding Invitation Street" was shown to Xu Wenxiang in advance, and Xu Wenxiang decided to buy the copyright and record it for distribution, so they were surprised that Xiao Yao wrote that song in one night. Now Xu Wenxiang and Xiao Yao are already working on the arrangement of the second song, and Chen Manli knows without asking, that the song composed in half an hour is absolutely of excellent quality, not much worse than "Wedding Invitation Street".

"There are more!" Xu Wenxiang smiled again.

"What else?" Chen Manli felt like she was going crazy.

"It's indeed a song for half an hour, but it's just two versions!" Xu Wenxiang said.

"Two versions?" Chen Manli asked.

"Of course I didn't want to let go of the song "Yuan" after it was written, so I decided to buy the copyright from him." Xu Wenxiang said, "He agreed, but he made a condition with me, saying that the song would sell well. If it is given to our company, it must also be sung by Ah Yun."

"Speaking of which, I wonder if this kid has some special relationship with Ah Yun." Xu Wenxiang looked at Xiao Yao and said, "But he told me that he and Ah Yun are ordinary friends."

Chen Manli also glanced at Xiao Yao. If Yang Shiyun hadn't told her about the emotional experience between Xiao Yao and his girlfriend just now, and she herself had found those things on the Internet, she would have suspected that there was something wrong between Xiao Yao and Yang Shiyun.

"In your company, I am indeed familiar with Yang Shiyun!" Xiao Yao spread his hands.

"Really?" Xu Wenxiang chuckled, "You forgot about Li Xun so quickly? When I see him next time, I will tell him that among the singers in our company, Xiao Yao is only familiar with Ah Yun! "

"Hiss~" Xiao Yao patted his forehead angrily.

When I participated in "Singer" on Shonan Satellite TV, the Hong Kong singer Zhao Lixun in that season was a singer under YH.

"No, the main reason is that this song is suitable for girls to sing. Otherwise, I would have sung it myself, why would I sell it to you? It's not that I can't speak Cantonese!" Xiao Yao hurriedly remedied, "Besides, Li Xun Eldest brother has long been a top-tier celebrity in the music scene, and he is already famous. Shi Yun has been in your company for several years, but he is still a rookie, and his singing skills are not bad, but he has no chance. He is always embarrassed to compete with Shi Yun, a newcomer, right?"

"Did you hear that?" Xu Wenxiang pointed at Xiao Yao with a smile, and said to Chen Manli, "He's saying that our company doesn't spend resources on poetry rhymes, and he has bad vision! You are the artist director, and this is for you!"

"President Xu, you're targeting me on purpose!" Xiao Yao smiled helplessly.

"The company's resources are limited, and it's not up to me to decide who to use them for!" Chen Manli smiled, "Mr. Xu should promise you that this song will be sung by Ah Yun, right? With your two songs Song, I think Shiyun's future journey will definitely be much easier."

"President Xu, you haven't talked about the two versions yet." Chen Manli brought the topic back and said to Xu Wenxiang.

"Oh, yes!" Xu Wenxiang nodded with a smile, and continued, "He said he would give the song to Ah Yun, so I knew he wanted to praise Ah Yun. But we all know that the market on Hong Kong Island is very Limited, his two songs are in Cantonese, and his prospects in the mainland market are limited, so I told him, if you really want to praise Ah Yun, write a Mandarin song for her. He said that Ah Yun looks very foreign , singing English songs is more suitable, and English songs are also doing well in the mainland market now. He didn’t write another song for Ah Yun, so he used the song "Yuan" to refill the English lyrics."

"He said before that he wrote the Mandarin version of the lyrics of "Wedding Invitation Street", but he tore it up when he was dissatisfied. We asked him to silently show it to us, but he refused!" Xu Wenxiang continued, "Now he writes two different versions of the same song. I think he is telling me that he can really fill in different words according to the song. You said that he is a musician from the mainland, he has written both Cantonese and English lyrics, but can’t he write Mandarin lyrics? This was done on purpose for me too!"

"Mr. Xu, so you have made up so many things in your brain?" Xiao Yao smiled wryly.

"What else can I say to such a guy!" Xu Wenxiang spread his hands, "After listening to the English lyrics written by him, I feel like I just met a monster, so I just stared at him. He was watched by me. I got hairy and asked me what I was looking at. I said that I wanted to open his head to see how his brain grew, and I also said that I wanted to send him to a scientific research institution for slice research!"

"In the end, this kid immediately changed his words after hearing what I said, saying that the song "Circle" was a work he had written before." Xu Wenxiang smiled and pointed at Xiao Yao, "He said he has a good memory. , I remember the lyrics and arrangement of this song, and seeing that the title I proposed happened to be a circle, he wrote this song silently, and it was not written on the spot at all.”

"That's why he also told me that this song was written by him before, and he only released it now!" Chen Manli understood.

"Yes!" Xu Wenxiang nodded, then smiled and shook his head and said, "I drew a circle at random, and he just wrote a song called "Circle" before, in Cantonese, and in Cantonese and English The lyrics! Such a coincidence, do you believe it?"

"You don't really think we'll open up your brain and send you to do scientific research, do you?" Chen Manli also laughed.

"I've been called a monster since I was a child," Xiao Yao scratched his head, pretending to be serious, "I'm really afraid!"

"Haha~" Seeing Xiao Yao's performance, both Xu Wenxiang and Chen Manli laughed again.

After listening to Xu Wenxiang's narration, Chen Manli seemed to understand why the relationship between Xu Wenxiang and Xiao Yao seemed so good after just a few hours. How could someone like Xu Wenxiang not like a talented and interesting young man?

"Okay, I've figured out that you wrote another song. It's late now, and we still have to eat dinner." After laughing, Chen Manli went back to the original thing, and said to Xiao Yao, "Why don't we go to dinner first, let's wait until tomorrow or after dinner to continue with the arrangement and soundtrack!"

"Sister Mandy, where's Shiyun?" Xiao Yao asked.

"I'm afraid that you will find Shi Yun to record in the afternoon or evening, and I specifically told her not to run around. She should still be practicing your song "Wedding Invitation Street" in the company's practice room." Chen Manli said, "I'll ask someone to call She is here, let's go to dinner together. Of course, Mr. Xu, I think you are very happy to stay together, let's go together tonight! I have already reserved a seat at Yuehai Building!"

"Sorry, I already have arrangements for the evening!" Xiao Yao said to Chen Manli, "Thank you for your kindness."

"Already have arrangements? Is it for the movie?" Chen Manli asked tentatively.

"No!" Xiao Yao was stunned for a while, then shook his head at Chen Manli and said, "I'm going to ask Shi Yun to take me to Temple Street for dinner tonight!"

"Are you going to Temple Street for dinner?" Chen Manli asked unexpectedly.

"That's right!" Xiao Yao said, "Compared to big restaurants, I prefer to go to places that are more crowded. Now that I'm on Hong Kong Island, I can't help but go to Temple Street. Shi Yun took me to Temple Street last night, but I met a crew filming in Temple Street, and we only walked halfway. I don’t think there will be any crew filming night scenes there tonight. I plan to let Shiyun take me to the other half of Temple Street. I plan to have dinner at Temple Street to eat."

"That's good!" Xu Wenxiang interjected with a smile, "Art comes from life. Going to those places and gaining some knowledge and experience is also good for your artistic creation. After visiting Lidong Street yesterday, you can write a poem. "Wedding Invitation Street", maybe after visiting Temple Street tonight, I can write another song "Temple Street"!"

"Mr. Xu, it's not so easy, I said it was written before!" Xiao Yao turned his head and smiled helplessly at Xu Wenxiang, "By the way, the matter of composing music is here today. I won't come back tonight , let's continue tomorrow!"

"Okay," Xu Wenxiang said with a smile, "Tomorrow is tomorrow, you are not in a hurry, and of course I am not in a hurry. I have been bored in the recording studio all day, let's have fun tonight!"

"The company's practice room is downstairs. I heard that Ah Yun showed you around the company. You should know about it, right?" Chen Manli said, "Since you want to go out with Shi Yun, you can go find her yourself!"

"Okay, thank you!" Xiao Yao nodded, got up and left the recording studio.

"Mandy, are this kid and Ah Yun really just ordinary friends?" After Xiao Yao left, Xu Wenxiang asked Chen Manli.
