Relieved Li Mu is very busy these two days.
In the final test before the launch, although it was all done by Kong Lingyu and his team, Li Mu still needs to grasp their progress in time and give suggestions to avoid them from straying.
As for the design of the page, after communicating with the artists for a morning, and after several revisions, it finally met the requirements of Li Mu.
In order to cope with the large number of users attracted by the easy to listen network, Li Mu asked Kong Lingyu to add new servers and bandwidth. The first step is to be able to cope with at least 100000 people listening to songs online at the same time.
In addition, a project manager sent by Chengyu construction company, which is responsible for the decoration of the exclusive shop, also took a person to Haizhou, took two sets of design drawings to Li Mu for selection, and Li Mu chose one and started the construction.
In fact, in terms of shop decoration, Li Mu has no autonomy. The head office has very detailed requirements for decoration. There is a special decoration standard manual. There are strict requirements for dimensions, colors and even patterns from the wall to the floor tiles. There are also official templates for shelves, display areas, cash registers, lighting and so on. No one is allowed to mess with them.
Under the unified standard, it's almost the same feeling when the stores are installed, and Li Mu doesn't intervene much.
The project manager recruited a few more casual workers from the local area, and led the team to work. The construction time was from 7:00 to 9:00 every morning. It is said that overtime is the normal work of their company. Li Mu was naturally very happy with this way of work.
During the construction of the shop, Li Mu didn't ask for anything else. He went to the advertising company to order a huge advertising spray painting cloth, which directly hung from the top of the door of his shop to the ground, and the width also occupied half of the whole shop.
On the spray painting cloth, in addition to the huge Metersbonwe logo, there are two cool pictures of Guo Tianwang, who is almost two meters and five meters tall. In addition, it is also written in striking font: "the opening of Metersbonwe Haizhou store is imminent, please look forward to it."
After all, it's the most prosperous street. In the past one or two months of decoration construction, Li Mu didn't want to go to work and forget to publicize. Now this huge spray-painted cloth is very eye-catching, which can be seen clearly even a hundred meters away. It's also a propaganda in advance.
Every passing young people will be attracted by the huge print ads, and then receive a message that they are looking forward to: Metersbonwe is going to open in Haizhou.
Li Mu decided to go to Jinling after the video of the simple plan to participate in the rematch was set to be premiered by South Soviet satellite TV the day after tomorrow night, and the easy to listen network was officially launched at 12 o'clock that night.
Li Mu informs Kong Lingyu in advance that he will lead the technical team to work overtime all night the day after tomorrow, giving each person three times of overtime pay. At that time, he will go to the office and witness the historical moment of easy to hear online with you.
Later, Li Mu arrived at the rehearsal room of the simple plan at noon the next day. After listening to them rehearse "old boy" several times, Zhang kexuan's voice and artistic conception are in place. The band's cooperation and arrangement also show the song perfectly. Li Mu felt more and more that the four people of the simple plan have great potential if they can learn to themselves in the future Writing a song, that's great.
After listening, Li Mu gave four people a pertinent evaluation: "at present, the first round of the final is no problem."
The final is divided into two rounds. The first round is 18-5, the last round is 5-3 and the third place is selected.
Then Li Mu and the other four plunged into the studio and began to close the recording.
The recording process basically starts with musical instruments, followed by vocals, followed by later revision and editing. Generally speaking, the songs we hear are recorded many times, and then the better pieces of many times are taken out and edited together. This is a more scientific recording method. Even later, more and more stars with five tone imperfections start to produce records, basically, he Even if we read the lyrics several times, we can get the intonation later.
The song Li Mu and simple plan recorded first is "Li Bai". This song instrument recorded three times in total, and then the accompaniment was finished. However, Zhang kexuan's voice recorded more than ten times, not that he didn't play well enough, but that Li Mu was striving for perfection.
Listening to the recorded songs is very different from watching the scene. The live version can naturally ignore some mistakes and shortcomings, but the recorded version is not. It must be foolproof. Every single recorded in the studio, Li Mu must strive to be perfect. This is pop music, which is to face countless people. It's the same as recording zebra and zebra by himself Planting folk songs is different.
Li Bai finally met the requirements of Li Mu, and then we had a rest. Then we began to record sunflower. With the previous experience, Zhang kexuan's performance in sunflower was much more stable, and his voice solved the problem five times.
When the two songs are all finished, there is still plenty of time. Li Mu then said: "in this way, let's keep our spirits together and record the old boy. In a few days, you will go to Yanjing for the final. Then you will fly around. I'm afraid you don't have time and good condition.
“OK!” We also had a good time, so we took out some food. We were busy recording "old boy". Zhang kexuan used his voice excessively. Li Mu asked him to slow down for more than two hours. After the accompaniment of "old boy" was recorded, Zhang kexuan's voice was almost restored. Now it's the best time for the appearance. In addition, they have been rehearsing the song "old boy" in recent days , so the recording of this song is faster than the other two songs.After recording all the three songs, we went to a restaurant to have a meal. Li Mu asked them to pay attention to the easy listening network. In addition, before the easy listening network did not launch their songs, they must not disclose the source documents of the songs. The four people knew it and nodded their heads.
Li Mu is finally relieved. At eight o'clock tonight, South Jiangsu Satellite TV will broadcast the rematch video. Zhao Kang, who is in Haizhou, has been waiting for him. In recent days, his water army has picked out a topic in the fans' circle of simple plan: where can we hear "Li Bai" and the official version of "sunflower". The live audio you listen to, the sound effect is really not good.
However, all fans said that the simple plan has not signed any record company, so they have not yet entered the studio to record songs, and everyone is waiting for their recording version to come out, but it should be a while.
Among them, many fans are analyzing the time node. One of the most recognized schemes is that: a simple plan should be signed by a real heavyweight record company after the final in mid August. It will take at least half a year until the first record is released. That is to say, this year, you don't have the chance to hear a simple plan It's impossible to buy a simply planned album.
However, Zhao Kang's Water Army started a propaganda campaign. They spread "gossip" on the Internet and told all fans of the simple plan: the first single of the simple plan, Li Bai, was officially recorded in the studio, including "sunflower". The two songs will soon be released on the Internet, which aroused the enthusiasm of fans' discussion on the Internet.
Li Mu brings the source files to the office of easy to listen. Kong Lingyu takes two full-time technology, one server technology and several local part-time outsourcing senior students to wait in the office building.
Before the official launch, Li Mu and you tested the front and back stage together, everything was very smooth, there was no problem, the most important thing is that the interface of this website is very beautiful, at least at present, easy listening is absolutely the coolest music audition website.
All the songs of the music library come from the Internet, which is the common feature of all the listening websites at present. Li Mu knows that the accumulation of the original capital is criminal, especially in the Internet industry. Countless billions of money are made by copying, imitating, infringing and faking. At this time, he should not have too much sense of shame, and will not follow the rhythm of the times, First of all, make it easy to listen, and the most important thing is to attract users.
At eight o'clock, the program of South Soviet satellite TV starts.
Many people on the Internet are swiping the screen in the forum, and everyone is looking forward to the performance video of the simple plan band, but as you all know, they will appear at the last stage of the rematch, and the broadcast time must be after nine o'clock.
Meanwhile, Zhao Kang's water army began a second round of propaganda.
