I Really Didn’t Want to Be the Savior Chapter 104: Cultural conflict

He knew what Zhong Lei wanted to hear, but he was out of stock.

In the past, every song of Zhong Lei can be seen in the history of the profound analysis left by countless top music critics.

These music critics can be included in Zhong Lei's personal biography as a peripheral, which has a very high artistic value in itself.

Chen Feng's theories are all from other people's music reviews.

"Burning Yourself" is a new version of a ship that has never appeared in a past timeline, and of course no one has written a music review.

He held it for a long time, took a deep breath, and said heavily: "Okay!"

An awkward silence followed.

"It's over?"

After a long time, Zhong Lei asked.

Chen Feng: "Yes!"

Zhong Lei's expression was very uncomfortable, she was hesitant to say anything, and she was very angry.

She couldn't hold back, "Okay... okay. Then I'll post it?"

Chen Feng became as shy as gold, "Send!"

"No, you should give some more comments."

"Aren't you sure?"

"But I want to hear your approval."

Unable to escape, Chen Feng gritted his teeth, "Give me the project file of the audio track, and I'll see how your audio track is synthesized."

In an hour...

Chen Feng had a clear mind on the surface, but he said with complete uncertainty: "Only seven basic instruments are used, and there are no complicated chords."

Zhong Lei: "Yes, I tried to do a little more subtraction, but I didn't pursue it deliberately. The purpose was to match the core of the whole song."

Chen Feng continued listening, pointing to a melody on the computer and asking, "What tone is this Dudu Dudu? It's very special."

"It's the sound of the motor of the motorcycle, but I raised the key three times and made a remix chord. It's an attempt."

Chen Feng nodded, "Nice work, although there is no need to deliberately be unconventional, we don't need to care what kind of sound it makes, as long as we know that I want this sound, it's just right here. Put all your other similar ideas. Tell me."

"This piano was recorded by me using the Steinway sound from Lu Wei's house, and I played it myself. This bass was played for me by Lu Wei. We deliberately adjusted the strings very loose at the time. So it sounds a little bit down key, a little bit down. But I think what I express in this melody is a kind of cynicism and free spirit. And this guitar, you can't imagine how I recorded it. Listen to it. "

Chen Feng listened carefully again, and then asked tentatively, "In the toilet?"

"I'm getting close to the standard answer, let's go a little further."

"In the public toilet on the street in Caiweilu?"

"Keep going."

"Can't guess."

"It's the men's toilet in the public toilet! Hahahaha! Stupid! At that time, Lu Wei was about to collapse! But I just think the echo reverberation effect in the men's toilet is more comfortable, probably because of the toilet bowl. Well. Also, the guitar I used is actually your Yangtze River guitar, how about that?! This muddy sound quality, after being recompiled by digital software, is really unique.”

Chen Feng:......

He was speechless.

It's no wonder that when I came home for the past two days, I always felt a tinge of odor when I was playing with my guitar, and I thought the toilet was not flushed.

He looked at Zhong Lei's ear again and couldn't help thinking.

What is the structure of this person's ear, how long is his brain, how does she hear such a subtle and completely unimaginable detail gap, and how does she know that this kind of sound is the best and most perfect?

This...is probably the power of innate talent.

Too much.

Zhong Lei's self-introduction continues.

She's in high spirits.

Chen Feng quietly watched her "pretend to be 13" in the name of asking for advice, smiling very detached.

From this person, Chen Feng smelled the talent pouring out like summer flowers in full bloom.

What a shame.

Her creative philosophy is completely unconventional, and she does everything she can to pursue the perfect sound. What is even more terrifying is that she knows what a perfect sound is.

There are many sounds in nature. Humans feel wonderful when they hear them by chance, but they don't know how to copy, capture, and even take the initiative to create a good tone.

Zhong Lei seems to be born with it. No one needs to teach her, and no one can teach her.

It's full of talent.

Kneeling.

Now Chen Feng probably understands why Zhong Lei's songs are so good.

With this ability, even if the same musical instrument falls into her hands, the effect of playing it is bound to be completely different from that of a person with an ordinary playing level.

It's no wonder that when she plays and sings while holding the Yangtze River guitar, it sounds so good.

"Post! Post it now!"

Chen Feng waved his hand, and the song "Self Burning" was released simultaneously on the entire network.

Then he kicked Zhong Lei out and let Zhong Lei, who has the greatest degree of autonomy, be in charge of the publicity work.

The adaptation of "Bathing Fire" was put aside beforehand. Anyway, Meng Xiaozhou has not yet come to a conclusion.

In the end, Zhong Lei was unable to get a "true insight" from Master Chen's mouth.

It's just that Master Chen's vocabulary is too small, and he can only talk **** in his life.

But if you don't allow swearing, you can only have no comment.

Just one word, "Okay!"

This song really became a hit without a doubt, but it suddenly disrupted Meng Xiaozhou's negotiation plan.

At twelve o'clock that night, Meng Xiaozhou called Chen Feng, "Mr. Chen, Neil Brokamp changed his needs."

"How do you say? No cooperation?"

"He prefers the song "Self Burning", which he thinks is more rebellious and promotes a kind of righteous sacrifice, but it does not follow the rules so much, which is more in line with the "chaotic space". The style of the movie. In his own words, he loved Burning Yourself so much that he wanted to go crazy about it.”

Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, but then he took it for granted.

This is the taste of Midi.

Neil deserves to be a talented sci-fi director who shot "District 9" and "Elysium" at a young age, and his taste should not be underestimated.

Of course, in Chen Feng's opinion, "The Ninth District" is not bad, but it is too naive.

The worldview of "Elysium" is simply eye-catching.

I don't know what the level of Chaos Space this time is.

But Chen Feng doesn't care. All he cares about is that he can keep the purity of "Burning Fire", and at the same time he can use this to break into the European and American markets and start earning dollars.

"Okay, then we will change "Self Burning" according to each other's needs."

"Time is pressing, and the other party hopes that we will go to Los Angeles to communicate face-to-face tomorrow and start the adaptation."

"No problem, let's go with three people. Me, you, and Zhong Lei."

Two days later, the three walked out of the LA airport side by side.

Waiting here is Wilt Jackson, one of the producers of "The Chaos Space."

A close friend and right-hand man of Neil Brokamp, ​​Werther is also young, blond and tall.

"Welcome friends to the freest country on the planet, do you think the air is sweeter? You know, we were so excited to be able to create a big scene with you all night last night. ~IndoMTL.com~ Werther is very enthusiastic, and he speaks with the arrogance and arrogance unique to the Americans.

Chen Feng barely understood it. He was not very happy. He wanted to push back, but his English was not so good, and he was afraid of being embarrassed.

On the other hand, Zhong Lei refused the hug of the other party without being arrogant and said: "Freedom is a very profound word, and words should not be too full. Some freedoms are appearances, and some freedoms are essence. The ignorant are addicted to comparison, and the wise are self-centered. spur. Our country does not like to compare with you, but our air is also very sweet.”

Wilt was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time before he gave a thumbs up, "As expected of the creator of "Self Burning", as expected of a Chinese. I was just joking just now. At the same time, "Chaos Space" wants to explore The subject, in fact, is the definition of freedom.”

As soon as they came, Chen Feng and Zhong Lei thought that their cooperation was going to be a mess, but Meng Xiaozhou didn't panic at all.

As a returnee from the United States, Meng Xiaozhou is very familiar with the style of people here.

Conflicts are just adjustments. As long as there is a consensus on the core elements of interests, even if you spit on the other person's face, he can lick it down with a smile.

The negotiation process went very smoothly. After just two and a half hours, the contract was finalized on the spot, with the same terms as before.

Afterwards, the three of them went to the hotel arranged by the filmmaker to stay in the hotel due to jet lag. After the three woke up, Meng Xiaozhou would rush back to China immediately, while Chen Feng and Zhong Lei stayed here, with the theme song singer Katie Swift. Specialists, the director team and several main actors participated in the internal tasting session.

In the tasting session, the two will see the complete film, which, according to Director Neil, will help the theme song creation team to grasp the core of the story when adapting the lyrics.
