Chapter 167 Recording of Surfing
"La...la...la..."
The first humming was uttered.
In the control room, Chen Mo, who was studying the accompaniment track, suddenly stopped what he was doing.
Followed by.
A clear, clean, and pristine voice, like the first rays of sunlight in the mountains at dawn, pierced through the thick glass.
"Just a tiny little cloud~"
"Walk over slowly~"
"Please take a break!"
"Let's stop for now~"
If "Love You" is sweet, then "Baby" is warm.
So this song, "Treading the Waves," is pure.
Pure joy, pure vitality.
There's no showing off of skills, only childlike innocence that touches the soul.
Chen Mo leaned back in his chair, his eyes glazed over.
In a daze, he seemed to return to that summer decades ago, when he was wearing shorts, catching loaches by the river and chasing dragonflies in the fields.
There's no grand villa in Kyoto, no top-tier studio in the country, and no extravagant spending.
There is only wind, only clouds, only pristine purity untouched by pollution.
"This is just too... too catchy."
Chen Mo muttered to himself.
Xu Wenshan, standing next to him, already had tears in his eyes.
He looked at Jiang Bai inside the glass wall, at the girl who seemed to be talking to the clouds.
This is the child from his movie!
This is the soul that still runs with a smile even in the midst of suffering!
"Look at the wildflowers blooming!"
The song ended.
Jiang Bai took off his headphones and walked out of the recording studio.
"Teachers, how is it? Do you need to guarantee one of them?"
"Need not!"
Chen Mo suddenly stood up, his face flushed with excitement, and grabbed Jiang Bai's hand:
"Perfect!"
"This is simply a textbook performance!"
"Teacher Jiang, this song paired with this accompaniment is simply the icing on the cake! No, it's the finishing touch!"
"I bet this song will be a hit once it's released!"
Xu Wenshan nodded vigorously beside him, giving a thumbs up:
"That's amazing!"
"Ms. Jiang Baizhi, your voice... it's as if it's been kissed by God!"
"I'm bursting with confidence right now! With this song's support, our movie's box office performance will definitely exceed my expectations!"
Xu Wenshan and Chen Mo, one amazed that the film had gained a soul and the other was captivated by the discovery of an exceptionally good voice, surrounded Jiang Bai and launched into a barrage of comments.
It was only after a while that the two of them calmed down a little.
Xu Wenshan suddenly slapped his forehead, as if he had remembered something important:
"Oh! That's right! Teacher Jiang!"
"Didn't you sing 'Baby' on The Voice of China before?"
"Since we're already here today, and Old Chen's equipment is top-notch, how about...?"
Xu Wenshan suggested with an expectant look:
"Why don't you take advantage of your free time now and record those songs as well?"
"If we produce it together, the sound quality will definitely be better than your previous casual recordings!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo's eyes instantly lit up like searchlights.
"Any other songs?"
Chen Mo asked eagerly, his body involuntarily leaning forward:
Is it also an original work?
The song "Treading the Waves" that we just heard, though simple, had completely captivated him with its spirit.
As a producer who values talent and is also a fan of good looks, he is now filled with boundless curiosity and longing for Jiang Bai's works.
If he could record a few more hit songs of this caliber, it would be a tremendous honor for his recording studio!
"Record! We absolutely must record!"
Chen Mo waved his hand, his heroic spirit soaring to the heavens:
"I'll keep the tent for you! I'm not taking any customers today! Let's fight to the end!"
however.
Faced with the two people's enthusiasm, Jiang Bai calmly waved his hand.
"No."
Jiang Bai straightened her skirt and said with a smile:
"Thank you both for your kindness."
"However... I have already finished recording the rest of the songs."
"And they're already on music platforms, so if you want to listen to them, you can just search for them."
joke.
Record it again?
He'd practiced those two songs over a dozen times in Ah-Qiang's shabby basement! He was practically sick of singing them!
Moreover, Ah Qiang's skills are not bad either, and the repair results will not be much different, so there is no need to waste any more time.
"Huh? You're done recording?"
Chen Mo looked utterly disappointed, as if he had missed out on winning millions in the lottery.
"That's such a pity... I was hoping to do it for you myself."
"Those recording studios can't compare to my equipment..."
Xu Wenshan nodded, indicating his understanding:
"That's true, Jiang Baizhi is so popular right now, she'll definitely release a song quickly."
"Since it's already been recorded, let's just leave it at that."
"Okay, let's call it a day then."
Jiang Bai checked the time and, realizing he still had to rush to record five more songs, said goodbye.
"Director Xu, Teacher Chen, I won't bother you any longer."
"I'll leave the post-production of 'Riding the Waves' to you two."
"No, no, I won't bother you!"
The two quickly got up.
This time, Chen Mo's attitude was ten times more attentive than when Jiang Bai first arrived.
He rushed ahead of Xu Wenshan, personally went to open the door, and escorted Jiang Bai all the way to the villa's main gate.
A gentle breeze blew in early autumn.
Chen Mo stood on the steps, looking at the beautiful girl who was like a lily in the wind, and suddenly spoke:
"Teacher Jiang Baizhi! Wait a moment!"
Jiang Bai turned around: "Is there anything else, Teacher Chen?"
Chen Mo took a deep breath, pulled out a pure black business card with gold foil stamping from his pocket, and solemnly handed it to Jiang Bai:
"This is my personal business card, with my personal phone number on it."
He looked at Jiang Bai with sincere and fervent eyes:
"Professor Jiang Baizhi, you are a true genius."
"If you have any new songs to record in the future, or any requests regarding music production......"
"Come find me anytime!"
"I won't charge you a single penny! Even if you bring your entire orchestra, I'll treat you for free!"
Xu Wenshan, who was standing next to him, was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
Free...?!
This is Chen Mo!
Chen Mo, the top producer who claims he "only lifts a finger when the money is right," with a starting price of five thousand per hour and even first- and second-tier singers having to book in advance?!
They actually offered it for free for life?!
If this gets out, the entire Kyoto music scene will explode!
Jiang Bai was also slightly surprised.
He certainly knew the weight of that promise.
This isn't just about money; it's about top-tier connections and resources within this industry!
"Teacher Chen, this..."
Jiang Bai was somewhat flattered.
"Hey! Don't refuse!"
Chen Mo waved his hand, his face both arrogant and serious:
"I have a strange temper. If I meet someone I don't like, I won't serve them even if you offer me mountains of gold and silver."
"But when I meet someone as gifted as you... I'd be happy to pay you anything!"
"It's settled then!"
Jiang Bai smiled when he saw the determination in Chen Mo's eyes.
He took the business card and put it in his bag:
"Then... thank you, Teacher Chen."
"I'll definitely come and bother you often in the future."
"Welcome! We'll be waiting for you anytime!"
