Xi Xi gradually adapted to her identity and life as a primary school student. Yang Yi and Murphy finally had some free time and could continue their work. At present, their main job was to prepare for Murphy's new album when she returned at the end of November.
On this day, in Yang Yi and Murphy's exclusive recording studio at Phoebe Studio, Yang Yi, Murphy, and Jin Yingming sat in their chairs, forming a circle with Mo Xiaojuan, who was leaning on the console.
It wasn't that there was no place for Mo Xiaojuan to sit, but this pretentious unmarried girl said that she wanted to lose weight (slim her butt) and refused to sit.
"I think that the new album for the return must have enough weight to form a certain market influence! Because Sister Fei hasn't released a new album for two years, this time it must be a hit! "Mo Xiaojuan clenched her fists and said valiantly.
"This is definitely necessary. What we need to study is whether to add previously released singles in the new album," Jin Yingming said.
In fact, not to mention the use of previous singles in the new album, the new album was also mixed with songs used in the past album. These small tricks were everywhere.
The most common way was to take the old songs that were very popular in the past and match them with a few new songs to sell as a new album, called a golden song special!
Of course, what Jin Yingming said was another way to do it. After all, the songs that Yang Yi wrote for Murphy in the past were all released as singles. There was no lack of quality among these songs, and many of them were even songs that others dreamed of! If they weren't included in the album, Jin Yingming would feel that it was a waste!
"Old Jin, we have already released songs, so there's no need to mix them into the new album." Yang Yi laughed. "Xiaojuan is right. Since it's a return album, we have to do a better job and use all new songs to show our sincerity."
"But we have to write twelve new songs!" Jin Yingming looked at Yang Yi with some worry.
Although he didn't say what he was going to say next, his eyes revealed his thoughts. "Just two months. Can you do it?"
At this moment, Mo Xiaojuan hesitated and said, "Sister Fei, Brother-in-law, actually, we don't have to let Brother-in-law finish writing so many songs. According to the practice of many management companies, we can ask other songwriters for songs."
Murphy looked at Mo Xiaojuan in surprise. She was already used to singing songs written by Yang Yi, so she couldn't quite wrap her head around it. "You're asking for a song from someone else?"
"Yes, I have my reasons for making this suggestion," Mo Xiaojuan said seriously.
Yang Yi asked curiously, "Tell me about it."
"As early as a month ago, Xiao Ai released a survey on our studio's official micro-broadcast. It asked the fans which types of songs Sister Fei sang were more popular. This survey is actually a small interactive activity. They hope to mobilize the enthusiasm of fans and promote the sales of songs through this award-winning survey. "Mo Xiaojuan also explained a lot.
"I know about this activity. You also asked me to write postcards to a few lucky fans who won." Murphy smiled.
"What's the result of the survey?" Yang Yi also had a strong interest in Mo Xiaojuan's story.
"You definitely can't guess the result. Fans are more interested in sad songs like 'Listen to the Sea' and 'Come Across the Sea to See You' sung by Sister Fei. More than 50% of fans voted for this option. The rest of the fans like to listen to sweet love songs. There are also some who want to listen to Chinese, Cantonese, military songs, and other types of songs. The proportion of the latter is very small!" Mo Xiaojuan said.
Yang Yi froze for a moment. He touched his chin thoughtfully.
"In addition, we found that a large number of fans suggested to us that it would be a bit boring to listen to too many sweet love songs. They hope that Sister Fei can sing some other types of songs." Mo Xiaojuan said, "When 'Love of a Lifetime' was released, many musicians, such as Teacher Li Shijian, made similar comments."
Jin Yingming still had an impression of Li Shijian's music reviews. When he heard this, he could not help but nod and say, "Indeed, you should try some other types of songs. Otherwise, it's easy to limit your singing style to a small range. Just like Feng Huiwen of China's Top Voice. She used to be called the queen of sweet songs. Everyone's impression of her was only sweet songs. In fact, she also sang other songs, but they were not popular."
Yang Yi understood. He said with a smile, "I know. What you mean is that Murphy sang too many love songs I wrote about the sweetness between us. I'm worried that fans will categorize Murphy as a queen of sweet songs."
"But Xiaojuan, you're underestimating me too much!" Yang Yi smiled and pointed at Mo Xiaojuan. He said, "I don't only know how to write this type of song. I can also write other types of songs. If you want to be sad, you can also write about it. Otherwise, why would 'Listen to the Sea' be born?"
"But your experiences are different now. You're living a happy life now. There's no sadness like before. Didn't your songs change their style and become the type of songs that show affection every day?" Mo Xiaojuan said with some resentment towards the end.
Yang Yi shook his head and said with a smile, "Haven't you heard of a poem called 'In order to write a new poem, one has to express one's sorrow'?"
Mo Xiaojuan shook her head in confusion. Murphy had not heard of it either. Jin Yingming, who had a higher reading level, could not help but ask, "What poem is that? I've never heard of it either. "
Yang Yi then remembered that there was no mission for Old Xin in this world. He smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Well, that's not important. What I mean is that the creation of music does not necessarily require the same experience to create a song with a certain emotion. It's just like writing a novel. Sometimes, their creation also requires imagination. With some imagination, you can immerse yourself in a certain simulated emotion. Then, this type of song can be written!"
Murphy pulled Yang Yi's hand. She did not want Yang Yi to torture her too much. She said, "Actually, I think it doesn't matter what type of song you sing. And I think that singing a love song that belongs to us will make me very happy."
"But I know that you actually like to sing sad love songs! Last time, when I sang 'Love of a Lifetime,' you were immersed in it. Other songs are not so attractive. " Yang Yi pressed Murphy's shoulders with both hands, not letting her deny it. He said softly, "Don't worry, writing a few songs is not a big problem for me."
"You can write sad love songs? Then you should have said so earlier! We don't need to find people to write songs for us anymore! "Mo Xiaojuan said.
"Not only can I write, but what I write may not necessarily be worse than Listen to the Sea!" In front of his own people, Yang Yi boasted confidently. "Just wait and see!"
