After dreaming of getting rich, I dressed up as a collapsed idol

In the recording studio, the last note came to a rest, and the ending of the melody seemed to still linger in the space, with the lingering sound still there.

Lao Jia and his assistant sat in front of the controller, still savoring the grand and fatalistic narrative epic in the song.

Lao Jia finds it hard to imagine that such musical works came from the hands of the young people around him.

Although he had repeatedly raised his opinion of the boy's musical talent since the first time he stepped into his music store, every time he thought that this was the boy's limit.

Young people will come up with new things to subvert their previous cognition.

What is genius?

When Lao Jia was young, he was also bullied in this way, and he was proud of it, but his teacher told him that he had never seen a true genius.

Lao Jia used to disagree, but it was not until he really entered this industry that he realized that what his teacher said was right.

His musical talent can be considered excellent in a small circle, but when it comes to entering a larger space, it can only be said to be adequate, so he has not made a name for himself in the music industry and can only do some music-related business with difficulty.

But precisely because of his broad knowledge, his appreciation of music is absolutely top-notch.

He had heard all of Lu Qingfeng's music. Except for "Yanyuan Love" which was specially tailored for Beijing University and was not very popular, every other song took into account both popularity and musicality.

To put it simply, it should be understandable and comfortable for the general public, and it should also be long-lasting to listen to, rather than being popular for a while and then disappearing.

This sounds simple, but it is difficult to do.

Due to the rise of various short videos, music has more channels for dissemination, and it is much easier to become popular than before.

The catchy and addictive melody, coupled with simple and crude lyrics, and a timely dance, with a little guidance, can easily create a sensation thanks to the platform's spreadability.

But precisely because it was too simple, it disappeared after a while.

This is what is commonly known as the internet celebrity song.

Music is a highly structured work of art, including melody, rhythm, harmony, mode, form, texture, dynamics, speed, timbre and pitch.

Melody refers to the horizontal organizational structure of music, including the ups and downs of musical notes and rhythm.

Rhythm refers to the length and strength of notes and is the skeleton of music.

Harmony includes "chords" and "harmonic progressions", which are the combination of various parts in music.

Mode refers to the notes used in music connected in a certain relationship, forming a system with one note as the center.

Musical form refers to the horizontal organizational structure of music, including binary form, ternary form, rondo form, sonata form, fugue, etc.

Texture refers to the combination of various parts in a polyphonic music work, including vertical and horizontal combination relationships.

Dynamics refers to the strength of the sound in music, and tempo refers to how fast the music progresses.

Timbre refers to the characteristics of sound, and different instruments have different timbres.

Pitch refers to the highness of a note and is the most basic element in music.

A good piece of music must be carefully constructed from every aspect.

Because of the low threshold for appreciation, pure music is less spreadable than pop songs.

Music is made for people to listen to. If it is too complex, no one will understand it and it will lose its commercial value.

But music that is too commercial will become outdated quickly.

Lao Jia believes that Lu Qingfeng’s greatest strength lies in this: he combines art and business very well.

"It's done."

Lu Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the complete melody played from the headphones.

This song, which is aimed at the activities of the Forbidden City, is also the musical work on which he has spent the most effort so far.

The complete version of this song naturally existed in the Nine-Tailed Fox's knowledge base, but it only contained the melody and no score, so he needed to dig it out himself.

It is also thanks to his uninterrupted study of various music theory knowledge, otherwise I would not have been able to complete this job.

Lu Qingfeng was really impressed by those guys who wrote time-travel novels. How come their protagonists had never done this kind of work before, yet they could actually come up with lyrics and music scores?

I really think the musical score is 1234567.

Don't underestimate music, asshole!

At the same time, based on his current understanding of music, he made some modifications to the piece.

Because the original song was an electronic music, he felt that the melody in the prelude and transition was not suitable for a live orchestra performance, so he made some modifications based on his own understanding without changing the main theme.

At present, he has stopped by himself, and the effect is still good, but I don’t know what other listeners think.

He looked at Lao Jia.

"How about it?"

Lao Jia said nothing and gave a thumbs up.

The assistant beside him asked instead.

"Brother, you said before that this piece of music was collected by the Palace Museum, right? Can we go in during the live performance?"

Lu Qingfeng really didn't know the answer to this question.

"They should be selling tickets to the public. You can follow the news from the Palace Museum."

Judging from the reactions of these two people, there was no problem, so Lu Qingfeng felt relieved.

Next is the issue of submission.

Lu Qingfeng had already planned to submit it under the name of Peking University.

Liu Qianya had said before that many big names in the music industry participated in this event, and his current reputation could not be compared with these honored people.

It is easy for him to be ignored if he submits articles under his own name, but with Peking University as his backing, he will definitely be taken more seriously.

After completing this task, Lu Qingfeng focused his attention on the first concert of "Sounds into the Ears".

This concert is the focus of this week's program recording.

……

"Years of Reasoning" magazine.

Kumata Yamada has been here for five days. Although it was not his own initiative to come, he still showed his professionalism and competence, cooperating with the editors here to review the nine mystery novels produced by the event.

The review process is already more than halfway through, so what can I say about the seven novels I’ve already read?

It can’t be said that the writing is bad, there are some eye-catching designs, but overall, he feels that it is still too mediocre.

Whether it is the beginning of the incident, the development of the case, or the final outcome, it gives people a sense of naturalness, without the kind of twists that make people feel their brains are turned upside down.

Many of the tricks can be found in some past mystery novels.

Yamada Kumata knew that this could not be blamed on the Chinese mystery writers, and the same was true even in Japan.

Except for that group of perverts from the deviant school.

The fact that there is nothing left to write about in the field of orthodox detective novels is not a problem of any one person, but rather that this genre seems to have reached a dead end.

No wonder the editor-in-chief doesn't value this activity. Chinese writers are not much better than Japanese writers. In addition to the cultural gap, even if these books are published in Japan, not many people are willing to buy them.

"This book is pretty good. The setting of dual personality and fatalism is also very interesting. The blank space at the end is also very interesting. The author did not write whether the protagonist is one or two, leaving it to the reader's imagination."

Kumata Yamada put down the eighth book he had finished reading.

The title of the book is "Dear, I Want to Kill for You", written by Snow Monster.

There is only one book left to read, but Yamada Kumata feels that this book should be the final reward.

The readability is one level higher than the other books, and the quality is also not bad in the Japanese mystery novel world.

He was happy that he had found a good novel, so this business trip was not in vain.

There was only one book left, and Yamada Kumata rubbed his eyes and planned to finish his work for the day.

let's talk tomorrow.
