It's... Wu Chen wants to be so big and aggressive, not just because of Zhuang Xiaodie, but because of... a deeper reason.
"Mr. Wu, about this... Do you want me to inform Brother Xiaogu?" Mao Rusong asked Wu Chen slowly.
"As you like." Wu Chen replied.
The two chatted a few more words and then hung up.
There were only two people in the corridor, Wu Chen and Zhuang Xiaodie.
Seeing Wu Chen put down the phone, Zhuang Xiaodie took two steps towards Wu Chen. When Wu Chen turned around, she asked, "Mr. Wu... Boss Mao, is it troublesome?"
She felt uneasy and guilty again.
Wu Chen called Boss Mao for the first time when he answered the phone. Although Zhuang Xiaodie couldn't hear what Mao Rusong said, she heard what Wu Chen said.
And let Mao Rusong pay attention to safety?
"It's alright." Wu Chen smiled, and rubbed Zhuang Xiaodie's hair as he walked past Zhuang Xiaodie. Zhuang Xiaodie turned around with Wu Chen, and followed Wu Chen to the recording studio.
Zhuang Xiaodie hesitated.
She wanted to say something, but before she could say it, the door of the recording studio was suddenly opened from inside.
It was An Menglan and Yu Xiaohu who came out together.
"Mr. Chenwu, are you busy in the afternoon?" An Menglan asked when she came out to see Wu Chen, glanced at Wu Chen and Zhuang Xiaodie, and met Yu Xiaohu again.
The attitude was a bit strange. Wu Chen came here just now. An Menglan was just recording a song, and she just came out to talk to Wu Chen. Normally, she would be polite to Wu Chen.
In front of Yu Xiaohu, she had to pretend.
But she didn't.
"It's alright." Wu Chen stopped with one hand in his pocket, looked at An Menglan and Yu Xiaohu with a smile, both of them were a little weird, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"That's it..."
"just……"
An Menglan and Yu Xiaohu spoke almost at the same time, then stopped at the same time, looked at each other, and An Menglan said, "Tell me, Teacher Xiaohu."
"What?" Wu Chen smiled, looking at the two of them, he was a little surprised.
What happened suddenly? And Yu Xiaohu said it was more appropriate?
"Well... it's Mr. Morning Mist. I just talked to Miss An in the recording studio. Miss An said, you know everything about music, including album production, Miss An's album demo, The version you suggested, most of the content was done by you..."
Yu Xiaohu spoke in a deliberate tone, but the speed of his speech became faster and faster.
"So I discussed it with Miss An." Yu Xiaohu looked at Wu Chen, "I decided, if you have enough time, Mr. Chenwu, I will quit the producer of Miss An's new album, and you will be in charge! Look, This……"
Wu Chen's smile suddenly became much more subtle.
He was really surprised!
Yu Xiaohu's boldness somewhat broke his previous understanding of Yu Xiaohu! It can even be said that he has a risky spirit! This is true both for music and for his current job!
He's not trying to run away!
On the contrary, he gave Wu Chen a great deal of fame and fortune!
Music producers, for an album, are even more important than singers!
A music producer's tasks include controlling the scheduling of recording projects, training and directing singers, organizing production budgets and resources, supervising the recording process, mixing and mastering, and more!
Overall planning and supervision of the entire production process of an album, it is the music producer who determines the quality of an album, and it is he who determines the final effect of an album and presents it to the audience!
The influence of the singer himself on an album is a constant effect.
The music producer is the one who decides whether an album is better or not!
Therefore, music producers are often hailed as the "soul" of a music album!
Wu Chen was thinking about it, but heard Yu Xiaohu say again: "Actually, I want to ask Mr. Chenwu first, that is, Mr. Chenwu, is there any way for you to make this album faster, according to my original plan , it may take a day or two more..."
"If it's faster..." Wu Chen thought for a while, looked at his watch, then looked at Yu Xiaohu and said, "It will take five hours."
"Huh?" Yu Xiaohu thought he had heard it wrong.
Chapter 0436 limit four and a half hours
"Twenty-five hours?" Yu Xiaohu said after a pause, thinking he had heard it wrong.
"No, I said five hours." Wu Chen smiled.
"Five..." Yu Xiaohu's face condensed and his expression suddenly became blank. When a person is suddenly too shocked, or when he hears something that he can't believe, he will have this kind of expression.
Yu Xiaohu didn't even say the word "five hours", so he turned his head to look at An Menglan, and looked at An Menglan.
An Menglan did the same, with her mouth slightly open, her face sullen.
This five hours, no matter how you listen to it, it is very sloppy, and it feels like a very casual talk.
Both An Menglan and Yu Xiaohu are naturally very clear that Yu Xiaohu has already compressed the production time to the extreme in the entire process of making an album.
In the recording studio before, Yu Xiaohu had a chat with An Menglan. Given that Wu Chen quickly completed the production of the "Genius Superstar" digital single yesterday, Yu Xiaohu felt that Wu Chen should have a way to go faster!
This is also one of the reasons why Yu Xiaohu gave up the producer position to Wu Chen!
Hurry up!
To be faster!
But according to Yu Xiaohu's vision, no matter how fast Wu Chen is, he must at least have 24 hours a day, right? It is possible so fast if everyone cooperates with him sleeplessly!
Can it be faster?
These five hours sounded... just as bizarre as someone said that I could eat a fat man in one bite!
No matter how fast it is, there must be a process. Even if all links are correct and executed perfectly, five hours is far from enough!
"Uh...Mr. Chenwu, what I mean is..." Yu Xiaohu slowed down, speaking very slowly, even with a deliberate gesture, "I don't mean to lower the quality of the album, or at some point Local savings, perfunctory...so as to be the fastest...I mean..."
"I understand." Wu Chen smiled, "The quality of the album will not be degraded, five hours... is enough."
"Um...then..." Yu Xiaohu looked very hesitant, dragging a long tone and glancing at An Menglan again.
He suddenly felt a little regret.
I feel that making Wu Chen the producer was a not so right decision!
It's not that he is reluctant to be a music producer. Now that he has decided, he won't regret it!
And the reason why he wanted Wu Chen to be a music producer was not only because he thought Wu Chen could be faster, but also for the second reason, which was the most important reason, and that was the sensational effect!
At present, the Internet public opinion is all attacking Wu Chen!
The momentum is unprecedented!
The voice of public opinion is already heated up, and it is always boiling!
Question Wu Chen's character, question Wu Chen's arrogance, question Wu Chen's talent! And An Menglan's new album is composed by Wu Chen!
As long as the new album is released, it will have a sensation and reverse public opinion!
On this basis, if Wu Chen is still the music producer of An Menglan's new album... not only will it reverse public opinion, but it will also make a final decision! Directly establish Wu Chen's top status in the Chinese music scene!
It will be more sensational! It will completely shock the entire Chinese music scene!
Yu Xiaohu wants the most sensational effect!
The more sensational it is, the more popular An Menglan's new album will be when it is officially released! This will really form a situation where Wu Chen's popularity will drive An Menglan's popularity!
I thought very well.
But Yu Xiaohu really regrets it a little now.
Purely because the "five hours" Wu Chen said was super unreliable.
When An Menglan saw Yu Xiaohu looking at herself, she also hesitated, but before thinking about it for too long, she said, "That's it, Teacher Chenwu, please." At this moment, An Menglan can be said to be blind. s Choice.
She also felt that it was impossible to complete it within five hours, but she still entrusted the matter to Wu Chen.
"Then let's start." Wu Chen smiled and glanced at his watch again.
The time is now, one forty-seven in the afternoon.
Wu Chen raised his hand to signal, then walked towards the recording studio. The others naturally walked towards the recording studio together. After entering the recording studio, Wu Chen clapped his hands twice.
Clap!
"Everyone has worked hard, let's go first." Wu Chen said.
The dozen or so people in the recording studio all turned their heads and looked a little confused. They looked at Wu Chen, then An Menglan and Yu Xiaohu.
"It's none of your business for now." An Menglan said.
"All go out first." Yu Xiaohu also said.
I don't know what Wu Chen is doing, but since Wu Chen is said to be the music producer, he must have the final say!
"The computer equipment is all left." Wu Chen said again.
Soon, except for An Menglan's assistant Liu Jing, everyone else went out.
Officially started!
In the first hour, Wu Chen asked An Menglan to find the previously recorded "Wu Chen Suggested Version Demo". Wu Chen used a computer to separate the audio track, extracted the pure vocal part, and handed it over to Yu Xiaohu, who asked Yu Xiaohu to hold the pure human voice. For the sound part, go to the rehearsal room next door.
According to Wu Chen's arrangement, Yu Xiaohu will let the band perform accompaniment according to An Menglan's singing! It's still the accompaniment before, but An Menglan's singing is emotional! Will drive the band to find the mood!
Wu Chen gave Yu Xiaohu two hours, and two hours later, the accompaniment of six songs was released. The reason for the six songs was that they had already done the accompaniment for the first song!
Don't force it to be flawless, Wu Chen only needs the final version in two hours!
At the same time, Wu Chen asked An Menglan to sing another six songs according to the accompaniment of the demo!
At the same time, Wu Chen was listening to An Menglan sing with monitor headphones, and sitting in front of the computer outside, he started to do some post-production...
In the later stage, only Wu Chen can do it directly, because this is his song, and his mental value of more than 10,000 points enables him to remember all the details of making a song!
Of course, only part of the post-production can be done, such as adding non-instrumental sound effects, water drops, wind, camel bells, etc... Wu Chen did some of the post-production based on the demo, then separated the audio tracks and remixed them.
In the second hour, Wu Chen asked An Menglan to continue to sing. He continued to type on the keyboard. With his monitor earphones on, he did two things with one mind. He also asked An Menglan to sing a few songs such as "Queen" a few times again.
An Menglan didn't even know what was wrong with her singing, but Wu Chen knew.
In fact, An Menglan's condition is very bad today, and she hasn't had a good rest these days.
In the third hour, Yu Xiaohu brought over the accompaniment that Wu Chen wanted. He was not completely satisfied with the accompaniment of the six songs. Although they were all pure instrumental accompaniment, which was better than any electronic synthesis accompaniment, he felt that, Still kinda mean!
After Wu Chen got the accompaniment, An Menglan re-recorded the vocal part of the six songs, which was almost meaningless...
In this regard, Wu Chen directly mixed the sound, and then officially entered the post-production process!
At this point, Yu Xiaohu can barely understand the previous process. It is not a problem to not strive for perfection. As long as the later stage is done well, it can still be perfect!
But for an album, the most tedious thing is post-processing!
The post-production time for album production varies in the industry. Some post-production takes several years, while others can be completed in a week.
It doesn't really take a few years to do it for a few years, it's a matter of habit. It's not in a hurry.
Normally, it takes seven days for a top professional team to produce an album in the later stage!
but!
The reason why it takes seven days is because the team has the right to make changes in the later stage, but not the right to decide! When the post-production team is processing the mastering of the album, it needs to add other sound effects and at the same time perform operations such as sound modification.
After the sound is repaired, it is usually auditioned by the music producer, and the music producer decides whether to change it or not! Sometimes music producers listen to singers.
This is a very iterative process!
And the post-production team needs to make repeated fine-tuning for a long time when modifying any flaws in order to achieve the best effect!
What needs to be done in the later stage is generally to optimize the sound source, remove defects, balance the electricity, adjust the balance, repair the sound, etc...
All steps are very demanding on listening and music!
Now Wu Chen is doing the post-production alone!
He has the right to decide!
And this is his song! He has a sense of music and memory beyond human limits.
