Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory
Chapter 510: First Recording in the Recording Studio
Although a large venue has been determined, Fuxian Lake, like Lugu Lake, is governed by different administrative divisions.
The difference is that Lugu Lake is two counties across provinces, while Fuxian Lake is a district and two counties under the same city of YX. Various tourist attractions and cultural tourism properties built along the lake have become various popular venues for the competition for the venue.
After YX City won the bid for the venue, it was caught in a dilemma. The most frustrating thing was that since it was under the jurisdiction of three counties, their meeting point could only be on the lake, so there was no possibility of treating them equally.
After much debate, Yuxi Tourism Group finally decided to give the option to the Rolling Stones.
Then, accompanied by relevant staff, Chen Shuting took Liu Ziyang to select a site.
Since you have chosen Fuxian Lake, being close to water must be the most important point.
In addition, considering the width of the Fuxian Lake ring road and some surrounding supporting facilities, the scale of the music festival must be adjusted accordingly.
On the way there, the two discussed and eliminated some of the less suitable locations that were provided.
Only the Clifftop Park, Taiyangshan Town, Guanglong Town and Luchong Scenic Area remain.
The two outsiders didn't know that the four places they chose just happened to perfectly avoid Huaning County.
So after they met with the relevant staff and expressed their ideas, the person in charge in Huaning County started to look unhappy.
However, faced with the task imposed upon them by their superiors, they could not just walk away. They could only swallow their anger and follow the large group to investigate one place after another.
At the same time, I was also thinking that if these places were not selected, then our Huaning County would still have a chance.
The first place they visited was the Cliff Top Park in Starry Sky Town, which is located on the top of a cliff on the southernmost bank of Fuxian Lake. The view and environment are first-class. A grassland covering more than a thousand acres is definitely a good venue.
Moreover, it is backed by a cultural tourism town, which is similar to the Shanhaijian real estate project of Dianhai Group last year, but much smaller in scale. The accessibility and reception capacity are quite suitable for music fans.
But Liu Ziyang of the Long-distance Music Festival said: "This view is beautiful, but it is on the edge of a cliff and there are safety risks at night. This place is not the first choice!"
Upon hearing this conclusion, the staff of Jiangchuan District immediately assured: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu, we will cooperate to implement the security work in place, and will never allow such a safety accident to happen!"
The person in charge of Starry Sky Town also assured: "Teacher Liu, if we are chosen, the music festival will be held after this year, and we still have time to further strengthen the safety measures."
After hearing these assurances, Liu Ziyang could not refuse any further, so he could only reply: "Well, we will take these factors into consideration. Now let's go to the next place!"
After that, at the urging of Chengjiang County staff, the group drove to Luchong Scenic Area.
For Liu Ziyang, who was visiting Fuxian Lake for the first time, this place, one of the four national-level tourist resorts in Yunnan Province, basically met all his imaginations of plateau lakes.
Looking at the extremely clear water of Fuxian Lake, Liu Ziyang inexplicably blurted out: "What a pity!"
Although the voice of this nonsensical remark was not loud, it was still heard by the staff in the front row in the business car.
Out of curiosity, the staff asked, "Teacher Liu, what are you regretting?"
Liu Ziyang did not hide it and directly told the reason: "When I was looking through Bian Lang's music library before, I found a song whose lyrics mentioned Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake. Unfortunately, the Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake were too ugly to be eaten, so I can only wait for an opportunity to let Bian Lang bring it out."
The song Liu Ziyang was talking about was Xu Wei's "Warmth".
Hearing this, the staff secretly rejoiced in their hearts: "It's what he deserves! Don't you know what kind of temper Bian Lang has? We could see it at the Yuncun awards ceremony earlier. They can't be careless when it comes to the on-site effects. How could Bian Lang agree to your blatant request?"
But at the same time, he felt a little uncomfortable. After all, the song had been written and it was only a matter of time before it was released.
I don’t know how much traffic the song “Lugu Lake” from Mayuan has brought to Lugu Lake. They want it for Fuxian Lake too!
This time, Yuxi Tourism Group has chosen to host the Blueberry Music Festival, and this must be the idea behind it. It’s just that it’s still in the preparation stage, and the leaders above haven’t spoken yet.
Liu Ziyang just happened to bring up a topic, so he just mentioned it casually: "Teacher Liu, after we choose the location this time, please go back and invite Teacher Bian to come here to collect folk songs. Then we can see if you two can work together to write a song called "Fuxian Lake"!"
Liu Ziyang laughed when he heard it: "Good fellow, you guys customized this song and even thought of the name!"
The staff also laughed: "We have Lugu Lake before, so we think this is not a difficult task for the Rolling Stones!"
Liu Ziyang felt comfortable hearing that Bian Lang was not mentioned directly, so he started chatting with the staff about Fuxian Lake.
When we arrived at Luchong, it was time for dinner, so the staff took us to eat first.
Since we are in Luchong, of course we have to eat the most famous local specialty, Kanglang fish!
As one of the four famous fishes in Yunnan Province, the anti-wave fish only lives in Fuxian Lake. Due to its extremely high requirements for the living environment, its rise and fall is also a barometer of the water quality of Fuxian Lake and it is regarded as the elf of Fuxian Lake.
At some point in the last century, whitebait farming was introduced to the neighboring Xingyun Lake. Whitebait poured in from the river across from Fuxian Lake. The feeding habits of whitebait are similar to those of whitebait, and they occupied the ecological niche of anti-wave fish. In addition, the extensive use of silk nets for fishing, cruel fishing and overfishing caused a sharp decline in the production of anti-wave fish, bringing it to the brink of extinction.
It was only through artificial breeding in the past decade that the population of the elves in Fuxian Lake has been able to recover somewhat and return to the dining table, but its price remains at several hundred yuan per catty.
After listening to the staff's introduction of the fish, Liu Ziyang suddenly said, "We can't let Bian Lang eat this fish. To resist the waves is to resist him!"
Although it was just a joke, the staff thought about it and kept it in mind.
But no one expected that this name would become a famous story a few years later.
……
Looking at Bian Lang, he had just finished rehearsal this morning and had nothing to do, so he went to check the progress of the recording studio renovation in the afternoon. While supervising the work, Olaf looked at the ranking of the new songs and was grinning from ear to ear.
"Wave, according to your Chinese theory of social etiquette, shouldn't we take a break next month?"
Bian Lang was quite impressed by Olaf's speed in integrating into Chinese society: "Olaf, I'm wondering if you will be able to adapt to the social atmosphere in Europe when you return there in the future?"
"Hahaha, who knows what will happen in the future! Six of the top 10 new songs are by the Rolling Stones. I think many people will be upset by this result. There is only a difference of about 3 downloads between "Elopement" and "The Fear in My Heart". There are less than 24 hours left. Which song do you think will win?"
“I don’t know, but I hope it’s The Fear in My Heart.”
"Why would you think that?"
"Because he is Pu Shu!" Bian Lang made a joke to the foreigner in Chinese.
But he was destined not to wait for the sentence: "But his opponent is Zheng Jun!"
Olaf, with a confused look on his face, could only repeat the pronunciation of the word "Pu shu" over and over again.
“How many days will it take for this to end?”
Faced with the sudden interruption, Olaf spread his hands and said helplessly: "You know, it's impossible to ask Europeans to work overtime, but I can guarantee that it will be completed within the estimated time."
After making the promise, Olaf started a new topic: "Have you decided what song you want to record for the first time in this studio?"
Bian Lang has thought about this question, but he can't think of any song that must be with it.
No matter what others think, Bian Lang and Olaf have the same idea that this song must have a symbolic meaning.
After all, in their minds, the completion of this recording studio means that the Rolling Stones no longer need to rely on other external forces in music production, and can complete all production content internally.
This recording studio can also be said to be one of the core elements of the Rolling Stones Music School. With the establishment of the music school, the Rolling Stones will have a steady stream of new forces in terms of musicians and producers.
So the symbolic meaning is quite important!
Seeing that Bian Lang didn't have any special ideas, Olaf had to urge him: "Time is running out. If you don't choose from the music library, then you may need to look for more inspiration."
Olaf never doubted Bian Lang's ability to write songs quickly and with high quality. But inspiration is so mysterious, and everyone who writes songs knows that when it comes, you can't stop it, and when it doesn't come, you won't see it even if you scratch your head.
Bian Lang’s inspiration has little to do with creation. His inspiration is how to choose songs.
If the recording studio was abroad and he was a foreigner, he would choose "Please Please Me" by The Bugs without hesitation, because after this song, they no longer belonged only to England and Liverpool, and it also marked the beginning of rock and roll, an all-round revolution.
Their songs influenced a generation's artistic tastes, clothing and hairstyles, lifestyles and attitudes towards life.
They conquered young people from all over the world with their anti-high society and anti-orthodox art style, sharp and daring songs that touch on social sensitive issues, and their challenging behavior on stage. They enriched and developed rock music with their innovative spirit, bringing rock music to another historical stage. From then on, rock music is no longer just a simple entertainment music, it has more things to make people think about.
Perhaps many Chinese music fans don’t know much about this song, or many people have never heard of it at all.
However, this song from the first album of the Insects led the album to set a record of 30 consecutive weeks at the top of the British pop music chart. In 1964, it set a record of occupying the top 5 of the US Billboard Hot 7 singles chart at the same time, and won the th Grammy Award for "Best New Artist" in the same year.
At the same time, it also makes Abbey Road the recording destination that most musicians in the world dream of.
Bian Lang certainly hopes to make this Rolling Stone Recording Studio, at least a holy place in China, if possible. Therefore, the first song and the first album are of particular significance.
This inevitably reminded Bian Lang of Lao Cui’s first album "Rock on the New Long March", the overseas version of which is called "Nothing"!
The original album had a total of 9 songs, but since some time ago, the electronic version of the original Earth China that can be found on the Internet only has 8 songs left, and the missing song is "Nothing".
This pioneering work of Chinese rock in a broad sense was inexplicably lost in the vast ocean of music.
The appearance of this song is just like its title. Before it, our Chinese rock music really had nothing!
Thinking of this, Lang is no longer troubled. Before this recording studio, it cannot be said that the Rolling Stones had nothing, but for the entire Rolling Stones Music School, this symbolic meaning is almost enough.
As for the album, the mini album "Three Nothings" was already in the plan, and it's just right to release it at this time.
“Olaf, I want to record the last song of Three Nothings!”
Bian Lang had mentioned this album to Olaf once before, and now that the old topic was brought up again, of course Olaf had an impression of it.
"'Shame' and 'No Escape' are both extremely good works. The remaining song must be even more amazing than them, right?"
"This is inevitable!"
"I think the song is already in your head, right?"
"Olaf, you know me. I am sometimes really lazy..."
This is a song that Bian Lang feels he will never forget, so he doesn't write it out and put it in his music library as early as he does other songs that he is afraid of forgetting before he uses them.
So under Olaf's constant urging, the two of them left the messy room with their tablets and acoustic guitars, and sat down on a deserted patch of grass on the campus of what would become the Rolling Stone Academy of Music after the new year.
The prelude of the original version of "Nothing" is all percussion instruments. You will know this if you have watched Lao Cui's performance at the Beijing Exhibition Center in 92 to raise funds for cancer prevention. Lao Cui brought two percussionists and a drummer at that time.
For Lao Cui, who was born into a family of classical and jazz musicians, he would never be stingy with the use of percussion and orchestral instruments!
But the conditions are limited now, so Bian Lang can only sweep the rhythm with the wooden guitar, deliberately hold his breath, and imitate Lao Cui's hookah voice. In the sunset by the Dianchi Lake, he sang the first rock voice of China on the original earth!
Many years later, at the Grammy Awards, Olaf, who won the Non-Classical Producer of the Year Award, said as he accepted the award: "In my career, the evening when the Rolling Stones' "Nothing" was released was, in my opinion, the most important turning point. The moment I raised my phone, I heard an unprecedented era coming, and then slowly unfolding to us..."
