In the face of Zheng Donghan's praise, Yin Jun smiled and did not respond. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zheng Donghan is actually right.

"The Wind Continues to Blow" is Zhang Guorong's famous song, and the lyrics and songs just match his voice conditions.

In 1983, his agent asked Zheng Guojiang to fill in the lyrics of a Japanese tune for him, and then released the album "The Wind Continues to Blow" under the name of this song.

Then came the classic "Monica" in 1984's "Leslie", which made Zhang Guorong completely popular, and thus embarked on the road of a superstar.

Of course, whether it is Zhang Guorong, Tan Yonglin, Zhang Xueyou or Li Keqin, or female singers Mei Yanfang, Chen Huixian, etc., the songs they sing and the songs that have been spread to China are actually mostly Japanese songs, but they are just lyrics written by lyricists in Xiangjiang.

Therefore, many lyricists in Xiangjiang are called "lyricists", that is, they fill in the lyrics according to the song scores of other Japanese, which is much worse than the group of old artists in China.

Old artists often collect wind for a year and a half for the creation of a lyric song, and finally make a good lyric song that we will not get tired of singing for decades, this attitude towards art deserves everyone's respect.

It's just that after the 21st century, people have become closed-door, without rich social experience, without rich heartfelt emotions, and without looking for fusion music materials, how good can the lyrics and tunes created in this way be?

This is also the most important reason why in the 21st century, good songs are becoming fewer and fewer.

Back to the Hong Kong music scene.

In the 80s and 90s, Japanese songs accounted for at least 50% of Xiangjiang music, and the most famous pop songs were as high as 70%.

Miyuki Nakajima, a famous Japanese female singer and famous lyricist, is very prolific, and the quality of the songs she makes is very good, so not only Xiangjiang's work with her songs, but also Baodao's, so she is also known as the "savior of the Chinese music scene".

In Yin Jun's view, this is really a kind of sadness.

Although it's not that Miyuki Nakajima's songs can't be wanted, but my own things can't stop improving, it's okay to use her tunes as a supplement, if you rely on her tunes to produce classic Chinese songs, then won't our music scene have been reduced to someone else's territory?

In this life, Yin Jun not only wants to write foreigners' songs in advance, but also cultivates more people with musical literacy, so that more Yin Qing, Master Yan, Teacher Gu, Lin Xi, Fang Wenshan, Li Zongsheng, Zhou Dong and others appear, so that he can enrich his Chinese music scene and let the beautiful Chinese singing voice continue to be sung.

Come back to the present.

Zheng Donghan can be said to be the No. 1 guitarist in Hong Kong, and he is very sensitive to musicality, otherwise he would not bring PolyGram to the point of being the No. 1 in Asia in the future.

He can hear the wonderful power contained in "The Wind Continues to Blow", this song may not be as good as "New Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream", but it can also be regarded as a classic, a good song that can be sung in the Cantonese-speaking area.

As a result, Zheng Donghan is naturally full of expectations for Yin Jun's second song to his idol Deng Lijun.

"The second song is called 'Tales of a Small Town.' ”

Yin Jun rested for a moment before continuing to sing the second song.

"There are many stories in the small town, full of joy and joy, and if you come to the small town, you will gain a lot. It looks like a painting, sounds like a song, and the realm of life is true, good, and beautiful, which includes ......"

This time, Zheng Donghan frowned slightly when he listened.

Even if Yin Jun sang it twice in a row, he himself hummed it silently twice, and he couldn't find the shining point of this song.

To be precise, Zheng Donghan feels that this song is more like a minor tune, suitable for humming and singing while running around the fields and woods at will, but it is not suitable for becoming an album song that is officially sold.

It can even be said that this song seems to be a bit out of standard compared to the previous ones.

But thinking of Yin Jun's previous words, Zheng Donghan didn't think that Yin Jun deliberately took out a hastily created work.

Yin Jun even took a super classic and a classic song to Zhang Guorong, who is not familiar with him, and there is no reason to be so stingy with his idol Deng Lijun.

"Ah Jun, you ...... this song" Zheng Donghan hesitated for a moment, but still said: "I don't understand." If you want to say that it sounds good, it must be good, but I think it lacks a momentum that can become popular, and the minor key is not elegant. ”

"Brother Han, your appreciation ability is really good. Unexpectedly, Yin Jun smiled and nodded, "If this song is sung alone, anyone will feel average when they hear it at first." But if you can listen to it for a long time, it is a good song that carries the memory of the times. …… In this way, we don't even count what we say, you take it to Miss Deng to see, if she likes it, then you want it. If you don't like it, I'll send her another song, okay?"

"So be it!"

Zheng Donghan is also a decisive person in killing, since Yin Jun has said so, if he still pushes back, it will be too twisted, and he will offend Yin Jun.

What's more, Yin Jun is right, whether this song is good or not, whether he says it or not, he will only know until Deng Lijun.

Looking at Zheng Donghan's somewhat hesitant expression, Yin Jun smiled and said nothing.

Of course, he won't tell Zheng Donghan that at the beginning of next year, Mr. Li Xin, the great director of Baodao, will start filming the movie "Story of a Small Town", and the manuscript may be already being written now.

At that time, in order to find the theme song that fits the movie, he took a lot of effort and found two of the most famous songwriters on Treasure Island to make this "Small Town Story".

At first, others sang without taste, light and tasteless, but when Deng Lijun was replaced to sing, her sweet voice sang "A Small Town Story" into a poem and a painting, which was incomparably beautiful, and has since become one of the golden songs in film and television.

Teresa Teng actually likes this tune very much, singing is relaxed and comfortable, but she can express rich emotions, which is very in line with her singing thoughts.

Others may not be able to see the charm of "A Small Town Story", but Teresa Teng will definitely be able to.

At this point, Yin Jun has a strong self-confidence!

……

The song is over, and all that's left is to negotiate the price.

Yin Jun knew before that Zheng Donghan had an atmosphere in the world, and the same was true when negotiating prices.

He gave 20,000 yuan to "The Wind Continues to Blow", the lyrics and songs were packaged together, he was a little unsure of "Small Town Story", so he gave it according to 10,000, if Deng Lijun likes it, he will add another 10,000, if he doesn't like it, it will only be 10,000, and the songs are not necessarily used by Deng Lijun, or they will be replaced by another treasure island singer.

Now several of the most famous lyricists in Xiangjiang, such as Huang Zhan, Zheng Guojiang, Li Xiaotian, etc., generally have a price code of 1000-3000, and if they do a good job, they are particularly popular, and they can also get 5000-10000 red envelopes.

The same is true for Gu Jiahui, who composed the music.

Therefore, the 20,000 of "The Wind Continues to Blow" is equivalent to 10,000 lyrics and songs, which is the top.

This shows that Zheng Donghan looks up to Yin Jun very much and regards him as an existence like Huang Zhan and Gu Jiahui.

Of course, it can't be said that Yin Jun is better than Xiangjiang's songwriters now, but Yin Jun is so young, his creative peak is far from coming, and Zheng Donghan also has a good relationship with Yin Jun first, so as to better cooperate in the future.

Yin Jun didn't bargain either.

For him, writing songs is simply the last thing to do.

Songwriters in China, compared with Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, are too far behind in terms of status and income.

For example, here in Xiangjiang Treasure Island, the best price is what Yin Jun can get now, and then nothing has anything to do with Yin Jun.

That's pretty good.

In the mainland, if you create a song, people can sing it without royalty, and it doesn't matter if you go around to make money, especially the TV station, which broadcasts it over and over again, and it is called "I can afford you with your songs".

Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea are different, when a song is created, whether it is a lyricist or a songwriter, they can obtain their own benefits from the entire income, including album records, peripheral products, on-demand, authorized adaptation and singing, film and television selection...... Wait, some songwriters have written a classic song that has been circulated all over the world, and they don't have to worry about their lives for a lifetime.

This is also an important reason why songwriters in these countries are actively creating, because people can get more benefits, and they can make more money to repay their hard work!

To put it simply, why did Japanese songs occupy half of the Hong Kong music scene in the 80s and 90s?

Isn't it because people have worked hard to create better tunes than you, and then you can only choose these good tunes?

How did a good tune come about?

Isn't it because people have positive motivation that they created it?

To put it bluntly, this is copyright protection and intellectual property protection.

Hong Kong moss and the mainland lack such a mechanism, and it can even be said that from the perspective of cultural shirts, they do not pay attention to this, which is also the most important reason why there are fewer and fewer ancient inventions in China, and finally there is no more at all.

If the patent law and intellectual property protection could be erected in China from the very beginning, our China might have rushed out of the earth in ancient times, and the goal was the sea of stars!

Yin Jun returned to the current Xiangjiang, and he also had this concept of intellectual property and invention to promote and implement, but this is the same as Yin Jun's other goals, and he needs to establish a unique position in Xiangjiang before he can slowly implement it.

Even at that time, the process must have been very difficult, but this is something that Yin Jun must do.

Otherwise, in the next few decades, we will continue to lag behind Europe, the United States, Japan, South Korea and other countries.

Only by respecting inventions and creations and respecting the fruits of other people's labor can the wisdom and wisdom of the Chinese people shine brightly.
