Chapter 57 057 "Hibernation" Lin Yuan should sing more! ...
Chapter 57
Feng Zeng had been his agent for some time, and Lin Yuan discovered that Feng Zeng was not an impulsive person who only cared about short-term gains, nor did he like to infiltrate social circles, but he knew quite a few capable people.
He always seems to be able to find someone from some corner and then give Lin Yuan an opportunity.
Feng had introduced Lin Yuan to a music arranger, and Lin Yuan mentioned it to Tian Yi. Tian Yi immediately recommended him: "We can work with him; he's very talented."
A good arrangement can elevate a song to a higher level, and the arranger that Feng Zeng introduced was precisely at this level.
Lin Yuan asked his agent where they met. The agent admitted that he had helped the other person when they were both unknown.
Now this benefit has fallen on Lin Yuan's head.
The arranger's name is Bai Yi. He has worked with many singers, and because of Feng Zeng's relationship with him, the other party agreed to the collaboration without hesitation.
After Lin Yuan handed him the melody and lyrics, he didn't say anything at first, but then looked at Lin Yuan and asked, "Did you write this?"
Is there a problem?
The other person shook their head.
“I thought the new song would be in the same style as ‘Heart’s Desire’,” Bai Yi said. “I specifically listened to the arrangements of ‘Heart’s Desire’ and ‘Hot’.
Both of these pieces feature arrangements with distinct emotional progressions, a style that Bai Yi believes Lin Yuan excels at. However, the piece he's working on is not like that.
"It's a pretty good piece of music."
Bai Yi seems quite talkative, but once he gets into work, he's like a completely different person.
Lin Yuan's new song is titled "Hibernation." When people hear this word, they usually think of melancholy and sadness, and the cycle of the seasons. But in fact, "Hibernation" has a rather cheerful style.
Bai Yi added guitar and drum rhythms to the song because it is a song related to winter. Although the style is cheerful, there are still some blank parts in the song. Incorporating winter elements, the arrangement does not crowd out Lin Yuan's own performance.
Lin Yuan had always wanted to learn music composition, so while Bai Yi was working, Lin Yuan would study on the side. Fortunately, Bai Yi didn't mind Lin Yuan's behavior of auditing his classes.
“Since you can write your own songs, learning to arrange music will be easy for you,” Bai Yi said. “When you were creating this song, you should already have an idea of the finished product in your mind. Arranging music is about adding elements that you think are good.”
Lin Yuan nodded upon hearing this.
Bai Yi was very efficient. When he was focused on his work, he would forget everything else and concentrate on the task at hand. At first, he would discuss things with Lin Yuan, but later, Lin Yuan could not keep up with his pace. By the time Lin Yuan had almost mastered the basics and started to develop his own aesthetic sense, the arrangement version of "Hibernation" had already appeared in his hands.
"So fast?" Lin Yuan asked in surprise.
“It’s already very slow,” Bai Yi said. “Let’s listen to it.”
Lin Yuan went to listen.
The finished product of "Hibernation" is still cheerful, but not chaotic. Lin Yuan could hear the soft sound of icicles falling to the ground and the rustling sound of footsteps on the snow.
Everything has fallen silent, but hibernation does not mean the world is silent.
Lin Yuan couldn't help but smile: "It sounds beautiful!!"
Everything is ready except for recording.
Lin Yuan listened to the song quietly, but Bai Yi pushed open the door, went outside, and called Feng Zeng: "Why didn't you tell me that he wrote this song himself?"
"...Is it not well written?" On the other end of the phone, Feng hesitated for a moment. "This is his first attempt. I was thinking of hiring a great arranger so that the overall quality of the song would be better."
Bai Yi: "No, it's very well written, much better than I imagined, so I almost embarrassed myself."
When Feng Zeng invited him, he thought it would be a difficult favor to repay—Feng Zeng usually didn't ask for favors, in other words, since he had taken the initiative to ask him to arrange the music for this song... he was afraid.
At that time, Bai Yi did not know that the artist Feng had worked with was named Lin Yuan.
He didn't know that the quality of the song "Hibernation" exceeded his expectations.
He thought it was a money-making project by some actor for their fans.
result……
Bai Yi felt that he had been somewhat negligent in his initial attitude.
Although Lin Yuan didn't realize it, he still felt a little apologetic inside.
“Lin Yuan won’t take it to heart; he’s a very magnanimous person,” Feng Zeng laughed. “Besides, you didn’t show it.”
"If you really feel sorry, you can recommend any good songs to Lin Yuan to sing next time."
Bai Yi usually collaborates with the film crew quite a bit, so he can definitely get a chance to sing.
"Lin Yuan shouldn't lack invitations, right?" Bai Yi asked curiously.
Who doesn't know that Lin Yuan just won a Golden Wing Award?
“He cherishes opportunities,” Feng Zeng said. “He loves the stage.”
Feng Zeng felt that this was also related to Lin Yuan's long period of decline.
Although Lin Yuan doesn't appear on stage very often, he always gives 100% effort every time he goes on stage. He has never seen Lin Yuan frown on stage; he is always full of enthusiasm.
He accepted the invitation to sing "Tomorrow's Tomorrow".
One episode of the "Tomorrow's Tomorrow" tour didn't get a spot on the main stage, but only in a small theater. Lin Yuan happened to be available at that time, so he scheduled that performance.
It's not like he's just starting out now. He's already won the Golden Wing Award, and his salary has increased several times over. But as soon as the producers of "Tomorrow's Tomorrow" contacted him, he agreed.
Perhaps because he had seen so many instances of DA Entertainment raising prices at the last minute and abandoning platforms, Feng Zeng was somewhat unaccustomed to Lin Yuan's style.
He later realized that perhaps that was why he became Lin Yuan's agent, and that they met by chance.
He genuinely admired the other person.
...
Does anyone know what Kobayashi's next project is?
"Although it's good that he runs his own studio, I always feel that the operation of a studio is still far inferior to that of a professional agency. Now that Lin Yuan has won an award, he should be able to land some good opportunities."
"Why doesn't Xiao Lin film historical dramas?! He could collaborate with Xiao Hua instead @LinYuanStudio, please step up your game and don't waste the child's time."
As the year draws to a close, studios are conducting year-end reviews, and fans are eagerly anticipating which projects actors have in the pipeline for next year and which productions they will be joining.
With all the young actors and actresses announcing their new dramas, and Lin Yuan's name not appearing in any of them, fans are starting to get anxious.
Fans feel that Lin Yuan already has awards, all he lacks is popularity.
For male actors, acting in idol dramas is the fastest way to rise to fame; you never know which one will be a hit.
Which of those rising stars in the industry doesn't have several projects in the pipeline? Even if this one doesn't become a hit, the next one definitely will; just be patient and wait.
"Is there a problem with the studio's planning? 'The Powerful Minister' also looked like a flop. Back then, Lin Yuan didn't have a choice, but now he at least has a choice, right?"
Sang Zi did not join the fans' argument.
She wasn't particularly enthusiastic about Lin Yuan filming idol dramas. Indeed, several actors have risen to fame through idol dramas in recent years, but many more have flopped.
Moreover, even if a show becomes a hit, the next one is still an idol drama. No one can maintain their position with several consecutive hits; they are mostly replaced by newly emerging young actors.
Perhaps because she had been a fan of Lin Yuan for some time and had witnessed the low point of "Tomorrow's Tomorrow" at that time, her expectations of Lin Yuan were not so high.
In any case, Lin Yuan has been on an upward trajectory and is now much better off than before.
In Sangzi's opinion, although Lin Yuan's works are not numerous, each one is very memorable. There is "Thousand Mountains" which won an award, "Heart's Desire" which was hailed as a classic stage performance, and "Hot" which became popular along with "Prosperous World". In addition, there are several high-quality endorsements. Sangzi feels that Lin Yuan has taken every step very steadily.
She completely failed to understand these fans who seemed to want Lin Yuan to reach the top in one fell swoop.
There's no such thing as instant success. Isn't it all about taking it one step at a time?
Sang Zi lost interest after reading the fan comments for a while. Just as she was about to turn off her phone and go take a shower, a message suddenly popped up on WeChat—
“Sang Sang, ‘Mang’ recently released a new song. Is it Lin Yuan, the artist you like? It seems to be the same person listed as the artist.”
"A new song?" Sang Zi asked curiously. "Lin Yuan's Weibo homepage doesn't have it, and his studio's homepage hasn't posted it either. Wait for me to go check."
A few minutes later—
Sang Zi: "..."
She admitted that Lin Yuan's studio seemed a bit useless, as no one had even informed them of such a big announcement as the release of a new song.
No, you've at least released a new song, don't you need to promote it? Why are you acting like it's none of your business?
What did she see the moment she clicked on the song?
The lyrics and music were both written by Lin Yuan!!
Sang Zi suddenly remembered that in the photo of Lin Yuan's house that He Xun posted, there seemed to be a notebook and a guitar that flashed by in the corner.
Could it be...?
Lin Yuan can actually write songs!
Sang Zi felt as if a new world had been opened to her. The longer she followed Lin Yuan, the more she felt that his merits were countless and that he was always giving her new surprises.
Since it was a song written by Lin Yuan himself, Sang Zi, from a fan's perspective, should be more tolerant of Lin Yuan. It's okay if it's not that good; after all, it's his first song, and encouragement for the first song will lead to a second one...
The result was that the song "Hibernation" was much better than she had expected!
It's not the kind of song that's bland from beginning to end, leaving no impression, lacking any ups and downs, and with a boring vocal style. Nor is it the kind of song that only makes you feel irritable and has lyrics like "I'm handsome and rich, you're an idiot if you don't love me." It's a song that even non-fans find very pleasant to listen to.
"When animals hibernate and the world is covered in snow, I seek out something new."
"Today is the youngest day ever."
"Sneakers are freezing my toes."
"You can take risks even in winter."
Lin Yuan's voice is very lively!
Super lively and cheerful!
Sangzi had heard several of Lin Yuan's songs. Apart from a lively section in one of his live performances of "Tomorrow's Star Road," the style of the songs Lin Yuan sang later was very similar, almost making people suspect that he was going to take the route of a melancholic singer.
But this song—super cheerful and super cute—although it's a song about winter, what comes to Sangzi's mind is the scene of ice and snow melting.
The winter sun streamed through the window, warming my back. I hugged the blanket, basking in the sun while quietly listening to this song.
It would be best to have a steaming hot roasted sweet potato as well, and you can also reach out to peel an orange to eat.
Your new voice sounds amazing!
Lin Yuan should sing more!
