Chapter 821

"Li... Do you think Anthony and George (Russell brothers' names) are too poor to use Marvel's investment in shooting, so they can't afford to hire a composer to write songs for the film?"

Until this moment, Downey couldn't figure it out when he thought of the task assigned to them by the director. This song had nothing to do with the film in any way, but when he remembered that some suitable BGM would always be inserted in the film, he agreed without much care at that time.

In retrospect, there was only one idea of "being cheated by them". It was obvious that the Russell brothers regarded them as free and easy to use.

"You ask me, who do I ask? Who makes them two directors? Anyway, I never believe the lies of Anthony and George. Fake can be said to be true by them. "

Li Xianzhe shrugged and didn't bother to tangle with the problem.

When they were filming on the set, the Russell brothers overheard them humming the song with their guitars during their break, and then strongly demanded that the song be put in the film.

In the eyes of outsiders, the most familiar background music in the "Avengers" series is the one that sounded when several superheroes gathered or the War reached its climax.

However, this does not mean that there is only this one in the audio-visual CD officially released by marvel.

For such suggestions, Li Xianzhe and Downey naturally said that there was no problem, but what worried everyone was that the studio did not have the equipment to record and produce songs.

So they either found a studio with a recording studio or rented their own equipment. Li Xianzhe finally chose the latter.

"Wow ~ these things should cost a lot of money ~"

When they entered the room, they came to a room temporarily used as a studio, which was specially cleaned up. Downey's front foot just came in, his back foot stepped back and looked at the living room. They almost thought they had opened a door and came to another world.

It's not difficult to find a recording studio in an international city such as New York or Los Angeles.

However, these equipment inside are generally not rented out. Of course, even if they are rented, if you want to move these equipment from one place to another, you will inevitably have to pay expensive freight.

After eliminating all kinds of unfavorable factors and troubles, Li Xianzhe thought that the last time the girls were assessed here in redemption mountain, they cooperated with the local band group in live accompaniment.

Every day at a specific time, you can always see many art groups, such as bands, hip-hop groups, or performance artists performing here. It can also be said that it is not inferior to Times Square.

Under the temptation of Li Xianzhe, he successfully rented a complete set of equipment needed for the recording studio, and then chose a room in this folk house to transform it into a studio on site.

Of course, the sound insulation effect cannot be compared with that of an authentic studio, but Li Xianzhe is not a professional and picky producer. For him, as long as he can record and produce Hotel California, it is enough.

"The quality of songs like Hotel California is so high that everyone around us who has heard it admits its excellence.

So it's better to save more time than the two of us go to the local recording studio. I don't want this song to be leaked before it appears in the film ~ ~ "

Turning on the light in the house, Li Xianzhe found a place to sit down. Downey sat on the sofa behind him, holding a glass of water to moisten his throat. Although he couldn't read the music score, he had long remembered the song.

"I'm surprised that Anthony (the brother of the Russell Brothers) can value this song.

I heard that George (the brother of the Russell Brothers) suggested that he put the song between the subtitles at the end of the film. You know, he joked that we should make a record when he was on the set. "

"No ~ we are both so busy. We might as well have a good rest if we have a little rest time. Don't forget that we have to prepare for the opening of the restaurant in the future."

Li Xianzhe never took the Russell brothers' suggestions to heart. For him, it's better to believe the ghost's words than to believe the Russell brothers' mouth. Although he and Downey sang many songs in private, they both knew that they were not playing professional singers.

In terms of the professional ethics of American stars, if you really decide to make a record, you must find a record company to cooperate.

This is like any actor who needs to make a big transformation of his body and image in order to better meet the roles in the film after signing a contract for a film.

It is common for actors in action films to keep fit for months or even half a year, and he is OK. Although he received the guidance of Yu Yongzhen since childhood, he did not fall behind in this aspect when he went to China.

But he never had the idea of becoming a singer. As for Downey, who was born in a wild way, he still relied on his superior voice.

Once you decide to make a record, you must accept the training of professional vocal music instructors for a long time. In any way, Li Xianzhe and Downey don't have that time and energy.

"You are right, but I really think we will be welcome if we form a team. Of course, at present, we'd better take it step by step."

"This is the right idea. In the United States, we either concentrate on making movies or on making records. No American star has ever been able to shine in these two fields at the same time, um... Very few."

At this moment, the two reached a consensus again. After slapping each other, the chair under Li Xianzhe's ass kicked with two feet. With the smooth floor sliding to the corner, some musical instruments were placed in that area.

Holding an electric guitar in his arms, Li Xianzhe operated the equipment in front of him and the software in the computer. He played the whole song of Hotel California with his hands.

More than ten minutes later, the whole studio was filled with songs with a unique tone. Downey walked into the studio under the gaze of Li Xianzhe, began to put on his headset, stared at Li Xianzhe's slowly changing fingers, and he was counting the beats for him.

"Driving on the dark desert road... The cool wind blows my hair

The strong smell of marijuana... Diffused in the air

I looked up into the distance... I saw the lights flashing... My head was getting heavier and heavier

My sight became blurred... I had to stop... Looking for a place to spend the night... She stood at the door to greet me

I heard the church bell in the distance... I said to myself in my heart

This could be heaven... Or hell... Then she lit a candle

Then show me the way... There were bursts of voices along the corridor... I think I heard them say

Welcome to the hotel california... What a beautiful place... What a lovely face... "

I don't know if they adjusted their state too well, or because they cooperated many times in the past, which led to the recording being very smooth this time.

Getting rid of the work of debugging equipment and arranging music, the two put on headphones in the recording studio. Each sang twice in turn. Finally, when they came out again, they ended the recording in only half an hour.

If you are in a regular recording studio, even if they sing so loudly, it is difficult for people outside or near the door to hear the sound inside. Those picky singers will wrap their work with special sound insulation materials, from the wall to the door.

On the one hand, those immersed in creation do not like to be influenced and disturbed by external firms. On the other hand, it also prevents their works from being stolen by others without their knowledge.

However, the temporary studio built by Li Xianzhe does not have much sound insulation function, so that when the song of six and a half minutes came out from the house with the melody and their tone, it just attracted new guests.
