Chapter 46 Album Complete
On the way back to the company by taxi, Xia Haoyang was still feeling a little heavy. He didn't expect that such a singing program would be so difficult to operate. Satellite TV may not necessarily produce such a program because it will consider economic factors and aesthetic fatigue. For the TV station, it is okay to run such a program for two or three years as a gimmick, but it is too risky to create a fixed and long-term program. Xia Haoyang wanted to produce it himself, but no TV station was willing to cooperate. If he really set up an online platform to operate such a program, it would lack authority.
Something that seems easy and beneficial to all parties turns out to be so complicated and troublesome in practice. Back then, when South Korea was such a bad place, there were still three TV stations offering singing programs. How did they operate? It's a pity that Xia Haoyang doesn't understand operations and doesn't understand why others can operate well. Okay, forget it if you can't do it now. Xia Haoyang can only give up this idea for the time being.
After two months of polishing, the production of Tara's first album is nearing completion. 12 songs have been filmed in MV versions, 8 fast-paced dance songs, and 4 ballads; "Bo Peep Bo Peep" has also been included again. In the album, of course, the MV has a newly designed dance music, which is also a sexy version of the kitten dance. It was with this MV that Tara really made her mark back then. Although the version of "Christmas Tree House" performed at the Dolphin TV Lantern Festival Gala is cute and suitable for the stage, the MV must show the true essence of Mao Mao Wu.
The reason why Xia Haoyang looks down on other girl groups for the time being is because they still don’t understand the importance of dance, or they don’t understand that every K-pop song that is really popular in the circle has its own dance moves, such as Xiao Cat dance and "Bo Peep Bo Peep"; another example is the hip-swinging dance paired with "Mr" from the original time and space kara in the album; I also chose fx's "Hot Summer" for the occasion, paired with the exclusive hand-fanning dance move; The swing dance of "Lie" is also a signature move specially designed to fit the song.
The most famous dance of this album is Girls' Generation's "gee" and the exclusive dog-leg dance. If the most popular girl group music in 08 was "nobody", then the most sensational one in 09 is naturally The empress's masterpiece "gee". The emergence of this music is the most important stepping stone for Girls' Generation to reach its peak. "Abracadabra" and her classic arrogance dance, both from the second-generation group Brown Eyed Girls, were also included in Xia Haoyang's first album.
Perhaps Xia Haoyang wanted to pay tribute to his youth. The 12 pieces of music on the first album were all composed by the second-generation South Korea band. The seventh song is "Tell Me", another classic in the Wonder Girls retro trilogy. The refrain of the song with hands on hips and fingers pointing to the sky is also an iconic dance scene. The eighth song is Tara's own masterpiece "Bunny Style" and the iconic bunny dance.
8 pieces of music that are enough to be the main album appear on the same album, and are paired with enough classic dance moves. It is estimated that as soon as this album is released, the Chinese music circle will understand the importance of dance in girl groups. Xia Haoyang actually didn't care about others discovering the importance of dance. He was even afraid that you wouldn't know, so he deliberately put eight classic dance songs in one album. The remaining four lyrical songs are all Tara's own works. Tara's lyrical songs are actually one of a kind.
Xia Haoyang was attracted to Tara because of its fast-paced dance music, but it was only after listening to various K-pop dance music that he felt the fatal temptation of Tara's ballads. If Tara had only fast-paced dance music, it would not be better than any of the second-generation groups mentioned just now, but precisely because of its unique and charming ballads, Tara is the real chameleon and the crown among the real second-generation groups!
The four ballads Xia Haoyang chose in his first album are: the song "The Reason We Broke Up", Zhu Suya and Jingyi's natural harmony, Jingyi's harmonica combination, Jiang Mengyan's bass whisper, Qin Jiali's proud legs They are all highlights; "It only hurts until today", which is one of the three crown pains. This piece also has elegant and quiet angelic harmonies, and the beauty's monologue will be ignored by those who really love music. forget.
"Falling U" goes from the soothing piano at the beginning to the elegance and quiet high notes of the climax. The whole ups and downs use the sound to express the longing for the lover and the confession of love. The fourth song chose the lyrical version of "Lies", with continuous drum beats and plaintive sounds. Compared with the original fast-paced version, it has a unique flavor.
So who did Xia Haoyang choose as the title song in this super powerful album? It's still "Lie", and it's a lyrical version of "Lie". Since Tara in the original time and space started with "Lie", then let Tara also start with "Lie" for the first album in this world.
There was not much publicity, just a notice on the official Weibo that the album would be released, and then we chose three major music source websites as partners to release the album at the same time, with the same 12 songs, and we chose 5 which cost 25 yuan less than EHS. Yuan download package price. Because no music source website chooses to be exclusive, it is actually more beneficial to Fat Cat Studio in terms of revenue sharing and promotion, but it actually shows that people don’t trust you, so they don’t spend a sum of money to buy your exclusive distribution rights. .
Although money is really nothing to Xia Haoyang, the other bosses in the company are very concerned about it and want to wrestle with EHS. The members of tara themselves are also targeting EHS, and they want to give a sigh of relief for Zhu Suya and themselves. The bad guy fat boss gave "Good Days" to Chiyo Records, which made EHS famous for more than two months and gained both fame and fortune. Not only did he make money from his fans, but he also received praise from various professional musicians. EHS has been so prosperous in the past two months, and Tara feels so wronged. Now their opportunity has come.
When people are not going well, drinking cold water will make their teeth choke, but when things are going well, good things will happen again and again.
The new album has been scheduled to be released on July 7nd, and today I received news that Tara’s guest appearance in the movie "Flash Girls" originally scheduled to be released in October has been temporarily rescheduled to July 22th, and it is said that Tara’s guest appearance is very bright. Eyesight, so the film crew also specially produced a poster for Tara.
The song that Tara guest-sung in the movie was "Bo Peep Bo Peep" which was selected for the album, and Xia Haoyang was smart enough to choose the navy style version. Therefore, including the real black and white skirt Kitten Dance version that will appear on the album soon, it means that there are already three completely different versions of this song that will appear in this time and space.
Today is July 7th, Xiaoshu, a special day for Chinese people. After the album was released, Xia Haoyang, who had not done much recently, originally planned to go home to lose weight, but unexpectedly received a phone call. His second brother came to Yancheng with his new girlfriend and planned to meet for a meal. After hesitating for a while, Xia Haoyang agreed to the request to meet after all, they were physical brothers.
Xia Haoyang chose the restaurant to eat. He did not choose a particularly high-end Western restaurant. Instead, he chose a place that was considered a common consumption place for rich second generations like them, the "Snow Leopard" buffet restaurant located on the top floor of the World Trade Center. When Xia Haoyang arrived at the door of the restaurant, his second brother Xia Haoqi had been waiting for him for a long time.
"Third brother, I came all the way to see you and have a meal together, but you are so perfunctory and just sent me away here." Xia Haoqi joked.
"Second brother, you said you were shopping near the World Trade Center. This is the only place I can think of immediately. You're not familiar with Yancheng. It's too hard to find a place to eat, so you can just eat something casually." Xia Haoyang relied on his memory. call.
"I haven't seen you for so long. I feel like you've lost weight. Third brother, are you losing weight recently?" As expected, only people who haven't seen each other for a long time can notice the changes in Xia Haoyang's weight.
"Really? Have you lost weight? But I have indeed lost weight recently." Xia Haoyang also touched his face.
"It's better to lose weight. At least you'll be healthy. By the way, come on, call your sister-in-law." Xia Haoqi pulled the beautiful girl standing aside over.
In fact, the three brothers Xia Haogang, Xia Haoqi and Xia Haoyang did not call each other eldest brother, second brother and third brother since they were young. They called each other by their first names. Instead, they started calling each other eldest brother and second brother when they returned home after going to college. As for why, now Xia Haoyang didn't know the reason either. And the three brothers don't look alike.
The eldest son is like his father, with a heroic Chinese-shaped face. He is not tall but barely 170cm tall. The second eldest son, Xia Haoqi, is the tallest, but only 172cm tall, but has a thin face, like his mother. Xia Haoyang is the shortest and the fattest, and his face shape is said to be He looks like a younger uncle whom he has never met, but he actually has similarities with his father, especially his thick but interrupted eyebrows. However, because he is too fat, his face does not look square, and he does not feel like his father.
