Chapter 8 Bai Di
fire clouds.
Don’t get me wrong, this is not a description of scenery.
Huoshaoyun is the name of a company. Its full name is Huoshaoyun Music. However, Huoshaoyun itself does not produce music. They are just a porter of music. Simply put, they are in the music player business.
There are countless music players in Qinzhou.
The number of users of Huoshaoyun music player can be ranked among the top three.
Being among the top three in any industry is a very remarkable achievement—
For example, Qinzhou’s three entertainment giants:
Shinhwa Entertainment.
Nathan Entertainment.
Tianguang Entertainment.
Some people joke that these three companies together make up the entire Qinzhou entertainment industry, which is of course true to a certain extent.
Huoshaoyun and the three giants all cooperate.
Whenever the Big Three have any new songs to be released, Huoshaoyun is one of their first choice platforms for cooperation.
this day.
When it’s time to get off work.
In the bustling office, employees are chatting and slowly spending the last time before get off work. This is the happiest time for them every day.
“Tsk, tsk.”
“There is no suspense about this month’s season standings.”
“Tianguang ranks first on the season chart, and it has completely locked up its popularity. The data of the following songs are also very stable, but the download numbers of the tenth and eleventh places are very close. I wonder who will win in the end.”
“The eleventh place is also Nathan’s song.”
“I don’t know if Shinhwa can hold on to the tenth stage.”
“I have to say that the Big Three are still very powerful. This month they have directly occupied the top ten in the season rankings. Other entertainment companies can only follow behind and pick up some scraps.”
"no way."
“In this era where music is king, almost all the best composers in the industry are contracted by the three giants. This is a talent monopoly, so the industry says that these three companies represent the entire Qinzhou entertainment industry.”
At this time.
The office phone suddenly rang.
Supervisor Li Jianzhong quickly answered the phone, and an order came from the other end: "The Thirteenth Division of Shinhwa Music has a new song to be released. I have sent the sound source to your email. The song is called "Xiaochou" and it must be pushed out on time at eight o'clock tonight. When it goes online, just use the copywriting and posters provided by Shinhwa.”
"receive!"
Supervisor Li Jianzhong hung up the phone, his expression immediately dropped, he looked at his nervous colleagues and sighed:
“There’s work, Shinhwa is going to sing.”
The office suddenly erupted in the wails of social animals.
“Have to work overtime again!”
“How come Shinhwa is still releasing songs at this time? It’s almost the end of the month!”
“Looking at what you said, it’s not like any song is going to hit the top ten of the season charts. Is it probably a newcomer’s debut song or something?”
“That’s right.”
Supervisor Li Jianzhong looked at the song information and said, "The lyrics, music and arrangement are all written by a guy named Bai Di, and the singer is named Lin Shouzhuo. Both of them should be newcomers."
“Bai Di?”
Maybe this name is a bit domineering. The employee next to him couldn't help but come over to take a look, and suddenly he was overjoyed: "This Baidi should be a stage name, but this stage name is so cool. With such an arrogant name, I am not afraid that I can't suppress it!" "
“Bai Di?”
“The emperor of emperors?”
“Are you sure it’s Bai Di and not Bai Di?”
“I didn’t know how he came up with this stage name, so I thought he was Qu Dad.”
“Hahahahahahahaha, the singer’s name is actually Lin Shouzhuo. This newcomer and Bai Di complement each other perfectly. One name is extremely public, and the other is hard-working and low-key.”
“Stop being so poor!”
The middle-aged Li Jianzhong was not in the mood to laugh at all, so he interrupted everyone angrily.
Working overtime is his biggest headache. He has to be scolded by his wife when he returns home. He doesn't make much money but works all day long, but he is very busy.
“Listen to the song!”
The supervisor's voice was obviously filled with anger.
When everyone saw that the supervisor was in a bad mood, they no longer dared to smile.
Li Jianzhong decompressed the sound source with a heavy heart and played it on the monitor speakers.
Horse Cloud’s employees will listen to the songs before they are released online. This has two main purposes. The first is to ensure that there is no problem with the quality of the sound source received, and the second is to recommend based on the quality of the music.
Quiet.
The sound of the pipe organ sounded in the office.
The prelude was slow and quiet, with a touch of sadness permeating the air. Li Jianzhong suddenly felt more depressed, and felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart that he wanted to vent but didn't know how to vent.
The sound of guitar followed.
The deep and deep voice sounded along with the guitar, unhurriedly, like a man telling a story softly.
“When you enter this joyful place
Carry all the dreams and thoughts on your back
Diverse colors of makeup on various faces
No one remembers what you look like
Three rounds of drinking with you in the corner
Stubbornly singing a bitter song
Listen to it being drowned in the noise
You pick up the glass and say to yourself..."
This is a somewhat unique voice, deep, rich and heart-warming. Paired with a light melody, it has an inexplicable healing power.
Unconsciously.
The office is getting quieter. At this time, the sun outside was slowly setting, and the singing was low and shallow, just like the trickling river water at the foot of the mountain, gurgling into people's hearts.
Li Jianzhong suddenly fell into a trance.
This song does not have frequent changes in patterns, and does not have any virtuosic elements. It is like a gentle talk, as if it is trying to soothe Li Jianzhong's certain mood.
At this time.
The chorus comes.
There is no strong turning point. The tune is still so plain, but it seems not so plain. Li Jianzhong pricked up his ears and listened, as if his emotions were strongly resonating with the singing. It was a stronger spiritual impact than the climax of any song:
“One cup to the rising sun, one cup to the moonlight
Awakening my longing, the gentle cold window
So you can fly against the wind without looking back
Don’t be afraid of rain in your heart and frost in your eyes
One cup to the hometown and one cup to the distant place
Keep my kindness and encourage me to grow
So the road between north and south is no longer long
The soul no longer has nowhere to rest..."
Everyone gets drunk without being drunk, but Li Jianzhong didn't even smell a trace of alcohol, but he was already tipsy. His mind suddenly calmed down, and he looked at the world with sober drunken eyes.
The whistle sounded.
The carefree youth;
The complacency of youth;
Nowadays, when people reach middle age, they can’t help themselves, and the past is in a hurry and they can’t help themselves.
If a song is a world, Li Jianzhong has already been immersed in it.
And it's not just Li Jianzhong who is caught up in it at this moment. This is a song with universal resonance from the melody to the lyrics. Everyone in the office seems to be aroused, and everyone's expressions are changing slightly and they can't help themselves. , only the sound of singing is left in my ears, like wine flowing through my intestines.
“A toast to tomorrow and a toast to the past
Supporting my body has made my shoulders thicker
Although I never believe in the so-called mountains are high and rivers are long,
Life is short, why should we dwell on it?
One cup to freedom and one cup to death
Forgive me for being ordinary and dispel the confusion
Well, I always leave the venue in a hurry after dawn
The sober people are the most ridiculous..."
The past is like a fleeting moment, but often I can only tell myself what is on my mind.
When people reach middle age, they are full of choices, but how can they be free and liberated when they are young?
Young people who are working hard for life sometimes feel powerless. As they walk through the inevitable path of life, they just feel that their shoulders are getting heavier as adults, so they never settle for being ordinary but accept themselves, and discover that the so-called dream is not a burden. In words, but in heart, I realize that you and I are just ordinary people. Even if we are filled with sorrow, we will eventually reconcile with ourselves.
Eight glasses of wine.
Respect life.
The last song fell on my ears, and the sound of guitar and organ lingered for a long time. I don’t know whether it was self-deprecation or self-relief.
“The sober people are the most ridiculous.”
The office has been quiet for a long time, and I can hardly tell whether I feel more relieved or more helpless, but after all, there is a warm and sunny tone in my heart.
“Boss.”
The employee next to Li Jianzhong suddenly said: "There is one more sentence here."
When the remaining employees heard this, they all stood up and came over to take a look. Someone whispered to the screen:
“Cut the knife to cut off the water, and the water will flow again…”
"Toast a glass to relieve sorrow, sorrow will become worse..."
There is a personal signature at the end of this sentence, and it is none other than "White Emperor".
Li Jianzhong looked back at the lyrics and counted them carefully. After counting, he suddenly smiled with relief: "What a Bai Di, he made me drink eight glasses of wine while listening to one song, and at the end he said a toast to relieve my sorrow. Even more worrying, the atmosphere is over here, let’s go out for a drink tonight.”
“Boss, are you okay?”
Everyone joked after hearing this.
Li Jianzhong rarely had a hard time: "I'm afraid of a bird. I'll be there all day long. I won't come home until I'm drunk tonight!"
"strong!"
“But this song... it sounds so heartbreaking... I broke my guard when I heard the chorus..."
“I think it’s a warm color.”
“It’s very warm, like being healed, especially the whistle.”
"This song is like the kind of wine that doesn't seem to have a high alcohol content, but the more you drink, the more you drink. But I also feel that I was finally cured and healed. Of course it hurts, but alcohol disinfection will hurt for a while, and the pain will end." That’s good, it will become more and more comfortable in the future…wait, did I say something strange?”
“Look at the wheel marks on my face.”
“Then why are you still hanging around? Let’s arrange headline recommendations!”
"Don't rush, don't rush, we are already working. By the way, you are still laughing at Bai Di's arrogant name? I don't want to mention how awesome the melody and lyrics of this song are. Even this promotional copy is not something that ordinary people can come up with. , he still has a bit of arrogant capital."
"Depend on!"
“Aren’t you laughing at him too?”
"I think the name Bai Di is too big, but the song is really great. It's a bit of a combination of lyrics and music. It's almost the ultimate in lyrical slow songs. Okay, okay, let's not push it for now. Let's talk. Everyone has become artistic!"
Chinzhou.
Eight o'clock in the evening.
The nightingale’s first cry.
Huo Shaoyun's "Xiaochou" is online.
At the same time, many players that have cooperated with Shinhwa have arranged for songs to be released online at the same time.
And when the resource promotion of the song was launched on the homepage of the player, the employees of Huoshaoyun finally got off work. Everyone was clamoring to go for a drink, and some were humming "Xiaochou" softly.
Before turning off the computer.
Li Jianzhong accidentally looked back at the season rankings and said in an uncertain, subtle and incomprehensible tone:
“Is there any suspense in this thing again?”
Everyone couldn't help but look stunned.
Although this song made them, senior members of society, become silent and break their guard after listening to it, in the final analysis, it is a song written by pure newcomers from lyrics, music to singing, and it was released near the end of the month, so it shouldn’t be...
Bar?
