They went to the recording studio that Xiao Yunhai had spent a lot of money to build. Seeing the luxurious equipment inside, Vincent couldn't help but touch it and say, "You're too extravagant, kid. The equipment in this recording studio is the best in the world. I think you spent at least 50 million US dollars. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Why do you care how much he spent? Let's get to work quickly. The tunes for these 18 songs were already prepared before the concert. Now we just need to record the songs directly. Mr. Richardson, which song do you think we should record first? "
Richard thought for a moment and said, "I think we should record Miss Zhao's' Yesterday Once More 'first."
Zhao Wanqing nodded and said, "No problem."
Zhao Wanqing walked into the recording studio. She cleared her throat, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.
As if she had found the feeling, Zhao Wanqing picked up the earpiece and turned on the microphone. She nodded at Richard.
Richard turned on the equipment and the recording began.
Zhao Wanqing had sung "Yesterday Once More" more than 50 times on and off stage. Naturally, she was very familiar with it.
A few minutes later, Zhao Wanqing finished singing and looked at Richard.
Richard listened to the song from beginning to end again and gave Zhao Wanqing a thumbs up. He said, "Miss Zhao, you're amazing. I didn't hear any flaws after listening to it once. "
Xiao Yunhai put down the earpiece and shook his head. He said, "No."
A look of surprise flashed across Richard's face. He asked, "Mr. Xiao, is there anything wrong with Miss Zhao?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "There's no problem with her technique. The key is her emotions. She hasn't reached the stage of fullness. Songs are just a medium for singers to express their feelings. Happy songs can make people happy, and sad songs can make people cry. After you finished listening to my wife's song, did you have any thoughts in your heart? I don't think so. This means that she hasn't moved you yet. "
Richard pursed his lips and said, "Mr. Xiao, aren't your expectations a little too high?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Is it high? I don't think so. A singer had to be responsible for the songs they sang. They had to be 100% perfect, not even a little bit worse. If he can pass this level, he can finish 18 songs in less than two hours. "
Zhao Wanqing also listened to the song she sang once. She frowned slightly and made a gesture for one more time.
Richard forced a smile and said, "I really admire the two of you for being so strict with music. Alright, let's do it again. "
The second performance was obviously much better than the first, but it still did not satisfy Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing.
Zhao Wanqing closed her eyes and put all her emotions into the song. She sang it wholeheartedly until the third time before she passed.
After Richard heard this, there was a trace of emotion in his eyes as he said, "That's great. No wonder your albums are popular all over the world. Our company's singers are far inferior compared to you two. "
Next was Xiao Yunhai. He had to sing the same song five times before he passed.
From Richard's point of view, Xiao Yunhai was already perfect the first time.
Just like this, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing went back and forth, one after the other, one after the other, recording six songs in one afternoon.
They had dinner in the villa and recorded three more songs in the evening. Xiao Yunhai then sent Vincent and Richard home.
When Richard returned home, he wrote on his homepage, "Today, I was lucky enough to participate in Mr. Xiao and Miss Zhao's music recording. I was greatly influenced. Their meticulous attitude towards music is admirable. According to my standards, they have reached the standard every time, but they are so strict with themselves that it's almost perverted. They sang a few more times and only stopped when their emotions reached the fullness. This kind of dedication to music is worth learning from all of us musicians. "
Richard was just a sound recordist. Usually, he relied on his musical talent to attract the attention of thousands of fans.
Even he didn't expect that such a post would quickly spread on the Internet after it was posted.
Countless fans of Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing all gathered under his homepage. In less than half an hour, the post had exceeded 100,000 comments.
"The original poster is so lucky to have the opportunity to record songs for Kungfu Xiao and Goddess Zhao."
"I envy the original poster. I want to see them in real life."
"Kungfu Xiao and Goddess Zhao finally started recording an album. I'm so happy."
"I'm looking forward to it. Their album should be released soon. "
After Xiao Yunhai decided to make 18 songs into an album, Vincent's Original Music Record Company revealed the news to the public.
After the fans heard it, they were very shocked and expectant.
Now that they saw Richard's post, they naturally couldn't help it.
The next day, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing continued to work hard and finished recording the remaining nine songs. Richard, the chief recordist of the Original Music Record Company, didn't help at all, which made him feel impressed and speechless.
In the following days, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing started to shoot the MV.
Vincent hired two directors for them. One was responsible for Xiao Yunhai, the other was responsible for Zhao Wanqing. As for the male and female duet part, the faster director was responsible for it.
This time, Vincent put in a lot of effort. The script he wrote was much better than the previous one.
The MV director's standard was also very good. The actors were all professional, so the efficiency was very high.
Even so, the original one-week shooting time had to be delayed by three days.
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing didn't have much screen time. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to finish it in half a month.
Before leaving, Xiao Yunhai treated the two crew members to a good meal to express his gratitude.
During this time, Tommy quit his original job and came to the Storm Game Company.
Xiao Yunhai handed over the written game "Warriors and Dungeons" to him, and he was immediately shocked by it.
However, the people in the Storm Game Company were all working on Battle of the Kings. Tommy had nothing to do, so he started to write a detailed production plan according to Xiao Yunhai's game plan.
A week later, Tommy's production plan was completed.
The steps of the game production, the problems that would occur during the process, and the solutions to the problems were all very comprehensive.
After Mouse, Zhang Yuan, and Allan finished reading it, they all gave him a thumbs up.
Just like that, Tommy relied on his own ability to gain a firm foothold in the Storm Game Company.
After shooting the MV, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing left Los Angeles and returned to Yanjing.
It was already mid-May. In another month, Xiao Yunhai would start shooting Celestial Bane. Time was tight.
Previously, Xiao Yunhai had already decided on the assistant director. His name was Shu Junming, and he had just joined Hanhai Film Investment Company. He was thirty-three years old and was very capable. He had shot a TV series and a movie, and his results were very good.
This time, he volunteered to be the assistant director for Celestial Bane. Although Xiao Yunhai didn't like him, his father-in-law, Zhao Mingsheng, personally came out to talk to him. Moreover, Shu Junming was indeed very capable. Xiao Yunhai had no choice but to agree. Then, he asked him to bring people to set up the crew and look for a suitable shooting location. In the end, they chose Zhangjiajie, a tourist attraction.
Xiao Yunhai saw the photos sent by Shu Junming. The scenery was picturesque, with clouds lingering, waterfalls flowing, and birds chirping. As long as there were some special effects in post-production, it would be a paradise on earth. It could be used as a base for immortal sects like the Azure Cloud Sect.
Other than that, Shu Mingjun went to many other places. Xiao Yunhai was very satisfied with the pictures he sent.
