069 Second Album

"Mr. Xu, what are the results of today's statistics?" Ye Fan and Huo Lijun came to Xu Zhongmin's office and asked.

Xu Zhongmin looked at the excited Ye Fan and said with a smile: "More than 250,000 copies have been sold. The number sold in the second half of the month has dropped a lot compared to the first half of the month, but this data is already very good. I guess I will wait for you."

After the Spring Festival Gala, 500,000 copies should be sold out by March or April."

Ye Fan heard that sales dropped in the second half of the month, so he asked: "Is it due to piracy that has affected our sales?"

Xu Zhongmin nodded and said helplessly: "Yes, the current piracy situation has become more serious, and your reputation has risen. I guess piracy will appear earlier when your next album is released!"

After hearing this, Ye Fan didn't have any good ideas. After all, in this era, big-name singers and old record companies couldn't stop this kind of thing. He had no choice but to say: "When I have the opportunity to express my position, I will tell everyone to support the genuine version."

"You can give it a try, but we will continue to work on cracking down on piracy. If we can, we will crack down." Xu Zhongmin said, "By the way, have you decided on the songs for your next album?"

At this time, Huo Lijun said: "It has been decided. I have also read the songs, but there are some songs that I feel have a weird style. There are two other songs... I don't know how to evaluate them. Mr. Xu, you will know after reading them."

"

"Oh?" After hearing this, Xu Zhongmin looked at Ye Fan in surprise and said, "What is going on?"

Ye Fan shrugged, took out the music sheet, handed it to Xu Zhongmin and said: "There are only a few songs with rap content. Both Chou Country and Hong Kong Island already have this style. I have listened to it before and found it quite interesting.

So I tried to follow this style and wrote a few songs to test the waters, but they weren’t the title songs anyway.”

"What, you figured it out, this album won't have so many good songs?" Xu Zhongmin took the sheet music and said with a smile: "Let me see what's wrong with the style."

Seeing this, Ye Fan poured tea for himself and Huo Lijun, drinking and waiting.

For this album, Ye Fan plans to adjust the style. The theme is still inspirational, but more importantly, Ye Fan wants to use the song to express his attitude.

Moreover, after the last album, his reputation has already been established, and the release time of the second album is uncertain, so there is no need to produce so many good songs.

Ye Fan now finally understands why those Hong Kong and Taiwan singers can release two or even three albums a year. Each album only has one or two title songs, and all other songs are ordinary songs. In this way, the number of albums is not only high, but

, making money quickly.

As for the style of some songs that are not in line with this era and may cause controversy, Ye Fan is not afraid at all.

Not all of these ten songs are like this, there are many good songs.

Besides, what he wants is controversy, and young people are naturally curious about new things, so it might be faster to accept the rap style. This album is just to slap him in the face!

After Ye Fan's special selection, he selected the following ten songs:

"Your Answer"

Internet inspirational songs in 2019.

"stubborn"

Mayday's song in 2004, this song won the 2004 MusicRadio China TOP Ranking Hong Kong and Taiwan's golden song of the year, a classic among classics.

"Teenage Dream"

In 1999, the theme song of "Young Hero Fang Shiyu" was sung by Zhang Weijian. This song was chosen because the lyrics and theme fit well, so it was very suitable as a tie-in song for the album.

"Born Stubborn"

The song "Southern Expedition and Northern War" in 2017 has a lot of rap in it. Not to mention the style issue, if it weren't for the purpose of expressing attitude, this song would be very difficult and tiring for Ye Fan to sing. After all, the original rap

It was sung by multiple people, but Ye Fan was the only one.

"Asian"

Chef Xie’s song in 2005 was, for no other reason than Ye Fan wanted “banana people” to listen to it.

"Chinese"

In 1999, when Andy Lau chose this song, he wanted to know what the reactions of Ao Dajian and Gongzhi "foreign slaves" would be when they heard this song.

In the later textbook illustration incident, didn’t those involved grow up in this era?

Ye Fan is temporarily powerless and can only express his emotions through singing!

"Chinese"

Although the Snake Group's song in 2007 also contained rap, the theme was Ken, which is fine. The other reasons are the same as above!

"snails"

Composed in 1999 when Jay Chou was at his lowest point, it was sung by Xu Ruyun and others. It is a good inspirational song. In 2001, it was selected into the "Music" textbook of Shanghai Magic City and was included in the inspirational song section. It is also the theme of World Vision.

song.

"Walking You to Play"

Ye Fan chose this song from Wu Gao in 2008 purely to use it to curse people. JAY had not debuted and the Internet had not yet emerged in the lyrics of this song, so Ye Fan made appropriate modifications and only targeted those who criticized him.

people,

"Don't Bite Me"

It is also a song from Wu Gao in 2008. The reason is the same as above. Of course, the lyrics have also been appropriately modified.

Therefore, the last two songs will be the most controversial and criticized, but Ye Fan doesn't care, do you really think he has no temper?

I just have to confront those people in the media and newspapers, isn't that what they want?

Ye Fan would not be pulled down to the same level by ZZ and then defeated by their rich experience. That would be embarrassing.

Ye Fan's plan is that no matter how controversial this album is, it is still a song, right?

Don’t you like yin and yang and being weird? Don’t you like cunt? If you have the ability, write a song to scold him!

Xu Zhongmin also saw the last two songs. He looked at Ye Fan helplessly and said, "Xiao Fan, the other songs are all good. Have you passed the last two songs?"

After seeing "Walking You to Play" and "Don't Bite Me", Xu Zhongmin suddenly felt that the style of rap did not conform to the trend, so it was not a big deal.

Ye Fan said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, didn't you see the title of the first song? My reply is the same, your answer is all in it!"

After listening to Ye Fan's words, Xu Zhongmin looked at the song titles again and understood what Ye Fan meant. He stopped trying to persuade and sighed: "Then let's do this for now. I've read other songs that are pretty good, at least they have a good intention.

, and the number of title songs is enough. As for the last two songs, let’s talk about any problems when the time comes.”

Huo Lijun heard this and nodded with a wry smile. As for Ye Fan, he was not worried.

After all, in this album, he deliberately put songs with good intentions such as "Chinese" and "Walking You to Play" together, just to make things difficult for the government. Even if someone files a lawsuit, they will be entangled at most and will not block it.

album.

But more importantly, Ye Fan felt that the Yamen would not interfere. After all, Ye Fan was still a child, so he couldn't talk back after being told something. And it was just a sarcastic song. Did he mention it by name?

Moreover, Ye Fan has expressed his position very well in the title of the song. He is born to be stubborn!

Several people have also decided on the time to record the song, and it will be after the Spring Festival.

When it came to the time of releasing the album, Ye Fan looked at Xu Zhongmin, ready to listen to what he wanted to know.

Seeing this, Xu Zhongmin said: "I have inquired and found out that Gao Dagen is already producing an album. I heard it is a big production. His original plan was to have it at the end of June."

"But he saw your album sales. He is usually more low-key and the album production is more confidential. It is difficult to find out the information. It is not clear when it will be released."

"If he delays the release and doesn't even release an album this year, won't your album be released either?"

Ye Fan said nonchalantly: "I'm not in a hurry anyway. I'll just wait. Anyway, "Youth" can be sold for at least a year. I made this album specially. I can release it later. But if that doesn't work, I'm going to release one."

Just leave the rest, it won’t affect you.”

Xu Zhongmin was stunned by Ye Fan's pretentious words. Huo Lijun also had a dark look on his face after hearing this. Listen, listen, is this what a human said?

In the end, the two of them looked at each other and smiled helplessly. After all, they had nothing to do with a child, and they might not be able to beat someone if they wanted to. This was very sad!

Finally, Xu Zhongmin couldn't stand it anymore, so he handed the information back to Ye Fan, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I understand. That's it for today. You can go back first. I want to be quiet."

Ye Fan saw that Xu Zhongmin was so excited that he started to chase people away. He took the music sheet and said with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Xu, I'll go back first."

Hearing this, Huo Lijun said hello to Xu Zhongmin, got up and followed Ye Fan out.

Ye Fan, who had already walked out of the door, seemed to have thought of something, and leaned back into the door again. He looked at Xu Zhongmin who was drinking tea and asked, "By the way, Mr. Xu, who is Jingjing?"

After saying that, without waiting for Xu Zhongmin's reply, Ye Fan immediately closed the door and walked outside.

Upon hearing Ye Fan's question, Xu Zhongmin suddenly made a "pop" sound and spit out all the tea in his mouth.

Seeing the water stains on the coffee table, Xu Zhongmin thought about Ye Fan's words, but was amused by Ye Fan's imagination and laughed...

Huo Lijun, who was outside the door, heard the laughter in the office. Thinking of what Ye Fan had just said, he smiled and shook his head, feeling that Mr. Xu was being led astray by Ye Fan.
