The Director of Music Department

2. Have a clear goal and start copying songs

Wang Yifan's first step is to make songs out. He currently has a limited net worth, and it is impossible to choose music that is too complicated. There is no other reason for it, and he has no money.

However, he had already had an idea, the first song, "Lilac".

The reason why I chose this song is because this song does not require too many complicated soundtracks, arrangements, and only requires a guitar.

And the first movie he wants to shoot is the movie of the same name of "Lilac".

Wang Yifan first rented a short-term rental house as a temporary place to stay, and then wrote the lyrics of "Lilac Flower".

The next step was to find a recording studio and record "Lilac".

Wang Yifan found a recording studio called Morningstar on the same city website. The other party's fee is relatively low, only 800 yuan for the whole day (10 hours).

After the call, Wang Yifan started to register the copyright at an appointment.

The so-called defense against others is indispensable, so before that, Wang Yifan started recording the first version of "Lilac" with his mobile phone in the rented hut.

Of course, this initial version cannot be directly used as a paid audio source, but it is enough to register the copyright.

Wang Yifan took out the acoustic guitar, which was the only musical instrument in his hand, and it was given to him by Xu Tiange on his birthday.

"You said you love Lilac..." Wang Yifan played and sang it several times, and finally finished recording the original version of "Lilac".

Then there was the registration of the copyright. He made both preparations and found a CD-burning shop in the Electronic City to burn the original version of "Lilac" onto the CD-ROM.

Then I put the CD, notation, lyrics, and a copy of my ID card into a file bag. I found a nearby EMS company and mailed the document to myself.

The disadvantage of this method is that there is no copyright certificate, and it can only be used to protect the copyright of songs, but it is a basic operation for very safe self-copyright protection.

The next step is to register music copyrights through official channels. All operations can be done on the Internet, but it requires a certain amount of time for review.

It's not that Wang Yifan is too careful, but that there are many cases of copyright infringement in this world.

Because there are many channels for registering music copyrights, both online and offline, it is necessary to guard against others. This is the key to Wang Yifan's first plan, and it cannot be missed.

The next day, Wang Yifan took a taxi to the Morning Star Music Studio.

Because what Wang Yifan wanted was only the lowest-end rental, there was no way that the boss would greet him. The girl at the front desk brought Wang Yifan to the No. 3 recording studio.

The sound engineer is a middle-aged man with long hair.

"Hello, I'm recording engineer Chen Zhong."

"Hello, Wang Yifan."

"I'll introduce you to the recording process first. You're familiar with it, and you're ready to start at any time." Chen Zhong's routine was authentic.

Because Wang Yifan purely customized the lowest-end recording service, there was nothing to prepare, except for the preparations such as opening his voice.

Professional recording requires a lot of things, but Wang Yifan obviously cannot give the high price of professional recording, so it can only be the simplest recording.

However, good music melody, you will know when you listen to it.

Especially for Chen Zhong, maybe he is not a well-known recording engineer, but he can still judge the melody of a song.

Originally Chen Zhong thought that Wang Yifan was the same as those amateur singers who played tickets, but when recording the melody, that is, the guitar accompaniment, Chen Zhong's eyes lit up.

Chen Zhong, who was happy to see the hunter, also deliberately strived for perfection. Although he was still not professional, he was a lot more serious.

But when Wang Yifan started to sing officially, Chen Zhong was completely amazed.

In fact, the song "Lilac", in this world where the entertainment industry is extremely developed, sounds very difficult to find a fresh feeling in the sense of music, but this song, as a whole, has an extraordinary sense of comfort. .

There is also a catchy song, as if not singing, but telling a story.

Therefore, Chen Zhong's attitude is much more serious than before, and he found that Wang Yifan is different from those amateur singers, and his singing skills are very good.

The recording process went very smoothly, but Chen Zhong was very serious, so it took a lot of time.

"Mr. Wang, take the liberty to ask, do you have any intention of selling this song? The owner of our studio is also a singer. If Mr. Wang's song is sold, I believe our boss will give a good one. price." Chen Zhong asked tentatively.

"Sorry, I don't sell this song." Wang Yifan said with a light smile.

He didn't know that soon after he left, the boss of Morningstar Studio came back.

Li Chenxing is an out-of-date Internet singer. He once became an Internet celebrity singer with a song "Dawn", but in fact, he bought this song "Dawn" from others.

After receiving a call from Chen Zhong, Li Chenxing rushed back immediately.

"You say you love lilac because your name is her, what a melancholy flower, a sentimental person..."

Listening to the song "Lilac" sung by Wang Yifan, Li Chenxing's eyes lit up. He is an Internet singer, and he believes that he can still judge the quality of a song. This "Lilac" is definitely a song. Rarely good song.

And this kind of song like a person telling a poignant story is easier to be sung.

"He won't sell?" Li Chenxing frowned when he heard Chen Zhong say that Wang Yifan didn't want to sell.

"Come on, I'll try to sing it again, you can help me record it." Li Chenxing said suddenly after thinking for a while.

Chen Zhong's brows furrowed, he hesitated for a while, but still didn't say anything.

The more Li Chenxing sang, the more he liked this song, and his intuition told him that this song could be popular! So, you must get it!

The song "Dawn" was initially reluctant to sell, but he still got it?

Li Chenxing searched the copyright registration status of "Lilac Flower" on the music copyright database, and immediately felt a little tricky. Although "Lilac Flower" has not yet entered the review process, it has already applied for registration.

However, as long as he didn't enter the review process, he had a way. After all, the other party was just a newcomer.

After returning, Wang Yifan naturally didn't know anything about it, and he didn't know that his "Lilac" had been targeted.

However, he had already taken precautionary measures, and even if he knew about it, he would not care too much.

The next day, Wang Yifan answered the call from Morning Star, and his song was officially finished.

You can go to check.

In fact, it is to repair the sound, and then convert it into digital audio, and the technical content is not too high.

"Mr. Wang Yifan?" When he arrived at Chenxing, Wang Yifan saw a man in his thirties and asked with a warm smile.

"I am, you are?" Wang Yifan wondered, he didn't remember knowing this person.

"I'm Li Chenxing, the owner of this studio and a singer." Li Chenxing introduced himself with a smile.
