Chapter 1653

In rolling stone's studio, Dewey and rolling stone's recording band recorded 21 guns in less than a day.

Everyone involved in the recording, including Du Wei and Li Mu, was very satisfied with the effect of the recording.

In Li Mu's opinion, in fact, she can cut a perfect version of the song as long as she records it two or three times, but Du Wei has a high demand for herself. She constantly adjusts her state and emotion when she sings it again and again, so that the song really reaches the perfect state.

The rough cut demo has been perfect to Li Mu's ears, but the recorder tells Li Mu that the instruments in demo haven't been processed in the later stage, so they are still a little grumpy, and the timbre is not full and mellow. After the adjustment and refinement in the later stage, the overall quality of the song will be higher.

Li Mu worked as a band when he was in college. After he was born again, he didn't go into the studio less. He had been exposed to the behind the scenes production of some music. The recorder was so diligent. Many ordinary people could not hear the difference between demo and refined version at all. But for real fans, real musicians and critics, they could hear the difference between them in a second or two Gap.

However, the current music industry is not as intelligent as the later generations, and the later work is slow, so it will take at least a few days to solve the final version.

Li Mu can't wait to send the demo of the song to Spielberg, who is still doing the final work in cloud province.

Spielberg just came back to his RV after a whole day's shooting. This RV was specially transported from the United States by sea. Most of the time, he went out to shoot outdoor scenes and preferred to live in his RV. It has luxurious decoration and everything. Compared with the camp, it's really better.

The commercial time of Hollywood stars and directors is earlier, the business model is mature earlier, and the general income is much higher than that of domestic actors. At the present stage, Hollywood stars often earn millions of US dollars or even tens of millions of US dollars for a play, and the film remuneration of directors is also surprisingly high. The whole Hollywood front-line people are basically high-income groups.

Because of their high income, their daily rehearsal is also very large. The main actors in a movie basically have their own RV. Sometimes a movie is shot outdoors, and there are dozens of RV parked beside the film factory. However, although these rehearsals are very luxurious, most Hollywood actors are dedicated, and these high-level expenditures are basically borne by the actors themselves Dan, will not be imposed on the pay.

Spielberg's RV costs more than $1 million, and its interior is as luxurious as a five-star hotel. It not only has all kinds of luxurious furniture and electrical facilities, but also has special satellite phone and network services.

Spielberg was lying on a comfortable single sofa, tasting wine and resting. Suddenly, he received a phone call from Li Mu. Li Mu said to him, "Steven, what are you doing?"

Spielberg said with a quick smile, "I'm drinking Bordeaux red wine. I drink one glass before going to bed every day, which can greatly guarantee the quality of sleep."

With that, Spielberg asked curiously, "Mr. Li, what can I do for calling so late?"

Li Mu said with a smile, "I can't talk about the order. Just tell you that the demo of the theme song has come out. I sent it to your mailbox. You can listen to it if it's convenient for you."

"Is it?!" Spielberg sat up excitedly and said, "I've been waiting for your theme song for a long time! I'll listen now. "

Li Mu said with a smile, "listen to me. If there's anything unsatisfied, I'll make adjustments."

Mr. Spielberg said with a smile, "Mr. Li, you always strive for perfection. You can send this song out to prove that it has passed your test. I think this song must be great."

Although he said so politely, Spielberg was really worried about Li Mu's theme song.

Spielberg's film making has always been driven by the three core elements of high-end, atmosphere and high-grade. Therefore, from the actor to the backstage, he basically uses a luxury lineup. The same is true of soundtrack. He has a very high demand for film soundtrack and theme music. The master composers for the Royal use are basically the top of Hollywood, and the singers and songs he chooses are also very refined. In case of Li Mu It's really hard to use a second rate song to ask yourself to be a movie theme song.

Moreover, Spielberg is more worried that Li muhui will bring out a Chinese song, because in his opinion, it's really cool. In his eyes, English songs are the most suitable for global promotion. Moreover, the film itself is labeled as Hollywood and distributed from Hollywood to the world. Therefore, in this case, if the film really chooses a Chinese song, it's better to The global distribution of films will have some impact.

So the first thing he and Li Mu said after they hung up was to take out their computer and open their mailbox.

There are several unread emails in the mailbox. The latest one is from Li Mu.

The title is: "21guns demo."

The name of the song made Spielberg put a snack on it. He immediately clicked to download it. It took him several minutes to download the music, which is more than 20 MB in size.Click on the music, Winamp in the computer will start immediately, add the song to the audition list and start playing.

The prelude of "21guns" is that the guitarist controls the guitar volume knob rhythmically, and plays the increasingly strong and weak voice. With this processing method, it will create a kind of melodious feeling. This simple and practical processing method makes Spielberg feel a kind of feeling that the flag is flying in the breeze, and he is immersed in it.

Then, another acoustic guitar's sweeping tone is cut in, and then Duwei's pure and beautiful voice is softly sung with the accompaniment of the guitar.

Just to hear the first sentence, "you know why you're fighting, you know it's worth your life," Spielberg felt goosebumps all over his body.

This sentence, whether it's Dewey's voice or lyrics, has caught Spielberg's heart.

There is a point that Spielberg and Li Mu have exactly the same view.

In his and Li Mu's eyes, the war itself is not praiseworthy, but in the Second World War, all those who devoted themselves to justice and peace deserve to be remembered and praised with the most beautiful language in the world and the highest respect.

Therefore, when he heard Li Mu's "21 guns", which supports and praises the just war, he was completely moved by the song.

And he didn't expect that the song that Li Mu Mo changed was actually an anti war song.

As the song entered the chorus, Spielberg even listened to some tears.

21 guns is not gorgeous in terms of arrangement. There are no complex chords, magnificent arrangements, or even piano or orchestra. It just uses three major pieces of rock band: guitar, bass and drum. But such simple chords and arrangements create an unprecedented solemnity and emotion.

After listening to it again, Spielberg could not help clapping his hands and cheering. This song swept all his worries before, and became the most perfect theme song in his mind after listening to it only once.

Excited Spielberg couldn't help but listen again, and he fell into a state of single cycle, unable to extricate himself.

Half an hour later, Spielberg excitedly picked up his mobile phone, called Li Mu, and said with a trill: "Mr. Li, this song is wonderful! It's amazing! "

Li Mu said with a smile, "you are satisfied."

"I'm more than satisfied," Spielberg said. "I've exceeded my expectations too much! I believe that if the song is released in the United States, Dewey can even get a Grammy! "

Li Mu thought that the original singing of the song was green day because the album of the song won the Grammy's best rock album award. The 21 guns is the most popular one in the album, so the base of the song can take the Grammy, and Li Mu thought it was normal.

However, Dewey is not a singer who has developed to the United States, so she has not even released an English album. If she participates in Grammy, her success rate is not high. However, in Li Mu's opinion, once 21guns becomes popular all over the world, she can at least win Dewey the status of a Grammy performer first, and then slowly operate her Grammy Take the prize.

Who knows, before Li Mu spoke, Spielberg himself said: "Grammy in February every year, our film is expected to start publicity in November, and it will be released in December. As long as we start publicity, we will start to promote the song, pave the way for Dewey and the influence of the song in advance, and then I will run it to let Dewey on the stage of Grammy."

Li Mu said with a smile, "Steven, you want to go with me. My idea is to let Dewey on the Grammy stage as a guest, let the western people get familiar with her in advance, and strive for her to win several awards in the next Grammy."

Spielberg said: "I can't guarantee anything else, but I will fulfill my promise about the Grammy performance guests. I believe that the song will be very popular. As one of the heroines of the flying tigers and the singer of the song, Du Wei will be able to become the most famous Chinese actress in the West through this time!"

Li Mu said with a smile, "I'll ask you for this."

Spielberg didn't hesitate to say, "don't worry, Mr. Li. I will do what I say!"

Li Mu hangs up the phone with Spielberg. Dewey is ready to come out of the late production room. She has just finished the finishing direction with the recorder. After the two sides reach an agreement, her task has been completed. The rest has to be handed over to the later team.

Du Wei came out and saw Li Mu sitting on the sofa in the rest area. She hurried to him and said sweetly, "brother Li Mu, I'm finished. Let's go."

Li Mu nodded and said, "let's go. I'll take you home. Your family should be worried so late."

"No." Du Wei said with a smile, "my mother just sent me a text message. Let me not worry about it. Record it well."Li Mu said with a smile, "I just talked to Spielberg on the phone. He likes this song very much. He also said that you will be popular in the west next year!"
