32. Senior
"The song "Down the Mountain" has achieved quite good results. Our team received praise when I went to the meeting this morning."
Manager Zhao stood at the conference table, with more than a dozen people below, Ang Lee and Lin Chaomu sat in the corner. Compared with other singers and artists in the team, they are still newcomers. Although Lin Chaomu has been in Jinglu team for a year, other singers and artists present have basically entered two or three years.
This is the first time Ang Lee has seen all the artists in the team. Listening to Lin Chaomu's whisper to him, the two men and women in front are the two most powerful singers in their team.
In addition to a few artists, there are also leaders of various departments of the team, including lyrics, composing music, setting scenes, and band leaders.
Ang Lee looked at them curiously. Compared to him and Lin Chaomu, these people were much older, and they should be around thirty years old on average.
Not to mention the entertainment industry, even in the singer and artist circle, they have some malice towards older people, especially those who sing popular songs. Sometimes, in the eyes of most people, being older often means not popular.
This is not without basis. Pop music has been constantly changing with the audience's preferences, and young singers are more able to adapt to such changes. In comparison, older singers are less able to adapt to the changing pop music.
Unless those celebrity singers with strong strength have gradually formed their own musical style through their own abilities and efforts, this type of style cannot be learned by others, which has made them lasting.
But most singers are actually eating youth, because they will gradually lose their way with the passage of time. Therefore, many singers were very popular a few years ago but gradually disappeared from people's sight. The biggest reason is that they can no longer follow the trend, and the works they create are not popular with the public.
Over time, he loses fame.
The two so-called seniors at the forefront actually have the same situation. They may have been popular for a while in the past few years, but their strength is not so strong that they can only be gradually forgotten by people as time goes by.
So before the meeting started, and when everyone was chatting, they all found Ang Lee, not only warmly welcomed the new colleagues, but also expressed their intention to cooperate if they had the opportunity in the future.
And Ang Lee could only smile and cater to the conversation, saying that if there is a suitable opportunity in the future, you will definitely find your seniors to cooperate.
But I didn’t expect that such an answer would actually arouse the dissatisfaction of these two seniors, because most newcomers often see them respectfully, at least they will answer them like learning from their seniors.
From this "suitable opportunity", it can be seen that Ang Lee's answer did not regard them as predecessors at all.
In fact, he really didn't have such thoughts in his mind. These people only valued his abilities. If they had no ability, they might not even want to say anything to them. What's more, they might put up the predecessor's poems.
Just as Ang Lee was still in a daze, a burst of applause suddenly sounded around him. He reacted and looked around and found that everyone was actually looking at him. Obviously, the applause was taken by him.
Ang Lee was stunned for a moment and then felt a little embarrassed to express his gratitude to the people around him, and looked at Manager Zhao standing in front, who also smiled and clapped his palms.
"You can ask Ang Lee for more exchanges in the future. Young people today are very sensitive to pop music. Ang Lee, what do you think of today's pop music?"
Manager Zhao signaled Ang Lee to say a few words and teach his experience.
It is not important for the peers to whom the current popular song is sung. What they want to know more is the song composed by whom the lyrics is written, because they can do this kind of thing, but they really can't do it if they want to make a popular song.
In the eyes of fellow travelers, Ang Lee already has two popular songs. Although the biggest beneficiary of the song "Down the Mountain" is Lin Chaomu, they all know that the greatest credit is Ang Lee, because the lyrics and compositions of this song are made by Ang Lee.
In the industry, those who can write lyrics and songs by themselves and produce works that can become popular songs are the masters.
Although Ang Lee is just a newcomer and is still a thousand feet away from the great god, he made two songs and both became popular songs. What does this mean that he has the potential to become a great god.
"Is pop music? That's all. Based on the aesthetics of the audience, it is more important to create your own pop. In this way, one day, pop will follow you, not you follow the pop."
After thinking about it, Ang Lee organized the language and said, "This is not a polite word, it is really his real idea. What he wants to do is not just follow the popular butt, what he wants to do is that one day, the public's taste will follow his works."
"Yeah, it's a good speech, everyone applauds."
Manager Zhao nodded and smiled, taking the lead in applauding.
"Young people are just courageous!" The two so-called seniors at the top clapped their hands perfunctorily and said. Every newcomer who started out as a singer and artist has such a great talent in his heart, but how many can he accomplish in the end?
In this popular tide, almost everyone is being swept away by the tide.
There are very few people who can become the rock in the tide.
Even if Ang Lee successfully made two popular songs, it is still far from being able to become a reef that stands in the waves.
There are more than 500 singers in the entire sea of music. There are only a few singers who can be called trendy vanes in total, the kind that can be counted with one hand.
They would not believe that with their current team strength, there could be such a person.
"It just so happens that several of the arrangement representatives of our group are here. Ang Lee, what do you think are the differences between you in arrangement?" Manager Zhao continued. Arrangement is the most important part of a song, and Ang Lee's arrangements are quite good, especially the song "Down the Mountain", which is very different in arrangement than the mainstream arrangements now.
"Forehead......"
Ang Lee didn't know how to answer at once, and he scratched his head and organized the language.
"Just just say anything, it's just right for everyone to communicate with each other." Manager Zhao said encouraged. In his opinion, Ang Lee is a little shy and timid now.
"No, mainly because I haven't heard of everyone's works, so I don't know how to compare..."
Ang Lee said embarrassedly that he had heard the music from this parallel world, and he had never heard of the songs on the charts.
But he would be embarrassed to say this.
Chapter completed!
