Chapter 297 Problem

As an art school with the most majors, the largest investment, and the most avant-garde school-running concepts in China, Shangyi attracts a large number of domestic media every time it opens.

Because the enrollment requirements are relatively low and the management of "special students" is loose, Shangyi is the favorite school for all celebrities who became famous years ago. A large number of celebrities are admitted to Shangyi every year.

Of course, if you really want to concentrate on studying acting, the best choice is definitely Beijing Film Academy or China Theater Company.

However, Shangyi Qiang has an extremely strong artistic atmosphere. In addition to performance and music, it also has oil painting, sculpture and other art majors, and its strength is second to none in the country.

Although the school was established relatively recently, the school has done quite well in building a humanistic atmosphere. In addition to the beautiful and lush vegetation, there are also quite a few hand-made artworks by previous teachers and students on the campus.

Stone sculptures ranging from several meters high to oil paintings can be seen everywhere on campus.

Generally speaking, Shangyi may not be as good as the top universities in China in a certain major, but in terms of overall strength, it is definitely the best in China, especially the various hardware, which are updated every year and use the world's most advanced hardware. Good equipment.

Of course, these equipments are all public and will be placed in fixed rooms for students to reserve for use. In most cases, except for large items such as pianos, students will buy an instrument of their own for in-class and extra-curricular learning.

Luo Quan studied popular singing, which is now renamed the Vocal Pop Department of the Conservatory of Music, and its main purpose is to train pop singers.

This department is a new department established in recent years. In the past, it only had bel canto and ethnic studies.

The reason why it didn't exist before is because most bel canto or ethnic singers can sing pop. This kind of singing method originated from black music is actually not difficult for other Chinese vocal music professionals.

Of course, it’s definitely not that simple to be proficient, and top pop singers are no worse than top bel canto and national singers.

In China, there are many singers who sing pop music, but not many of them have gone to school seriously. Many of them became famous later and spent money to buy a nominal diploma from these music schools to make them look good.

At present, the most popular music in China is national music, which is a unique singing method in China. It originated from Chinese folk songs or folk songs. In modern times, some bel canto singing methods have been incorporated into it.

Those who study ethnic studies usually don’t worry about finding food. If you can take the postgraduate entrance examination, it is almost equivalent to having an iron rice bowl provided by the state. If you are more talented, you will be a regular guest at various evening parties, and the benefits and income are very good.

The same goes for Bel Canto, which are also the two departments that are most likely to make the national team.

In comparison, pop music students seem to have a hard time. There is too much competition pressure, and students are required to have certain creative abilities. Even if they cannot compose music, they must at least write lyrics.

The most prosperous era of pop music was in Hong Kong and Taiwan at the end of the last century. Kings and queens emerged in endlessly, but most of them did not know how to compose.

In fact, there is no need, because you can directly find Japanese or Korean localizers, as long as your singing skills are good.

In such an environment, those pop singers who can still insist on their own creations are quite rare and worthy of respect.

Now if I want to do what I did before, translating foreign songs into Chinese, I will definitely make money, but my reputation will probably be like this in this life.

Therefore, if pop singers want to stand out in this competitive era, creative ability is absolutely very important.

Just imagine, you release a new song. At the beginning of the song, except for your name behind the song title, the producer behind it all has someone else's name. What would it be like?

It actually doesn’t feel good to look at it myself.

This is why many singers nowadays always have a few "unpalatable" songs in their albums.

There's no way, you can't have an album where most of the creators have other people's names, right?

Of course, it is not impossible for singers to spend money to purchase signature rights, and it is even quite common. However, the buyer of these things usually signs some confidentiality agreement with the creator, so currently everyone knows that there is such an unspoken rule, but it has not been implemented. Hardly any hammer.

In short, although the pop music market in China is currently very huge, as long as a song is popular, it may earn 100 million in one night, but the quality of popular songs is generally low, and most of them are halfway through their debut, and their singing skills are too good. Got serious.

To be honest, with Luo Quan's current strength and fame, coming to Shangyi to learn pop music is actually a bit of a dimensionality reduction attack. The knowledge about pop music in her mind, from entry to high-end, is even better than that of the teacher. clear.

Of course, there are still benefits to attending professional classes. You can always learn something new.

As for the instruments used in pop music, there is more freedom, including piano, guitar, and electronic keyboard.

Most people choose guitar, and Luoquan is no exception.

Before coming to school, she went to a nearby music store and bought a moderately priced guitar for more than 300 yuan. The boss even gave her a 30% discount in exchange for taking a photo with her.

Standing at the school gate with his guitar on his back, Luo Quan sent a message to Wen Xia:

"Are you trying to be a big star? Why don't you come?"

They made an appointment a few days ago to go to school together. It's already past nine o'clock and no one has arrived yet.

"After a while, Wen Xia sent a text message: "Isn't it going to be reported tomorrow? "

Luo Quan took a screenshot of the school's electronic notice and sent it to her.

Five seconds later, a long row of "horror" emoticons appeared in the chat box.

You don't need to ask to know that Wen Xia misremembered the time of the report. He probably just woke up and hasn't gotten up yet.

"I haven't gotten up yet, you go report first!" Wen Xia sent a voice, sounding a little anxious.

Luo Quan shook his head and smiled, then turned around and prepared to enter the school.

"Luo Quan!"

A voice came from behind.

Luo Quan turned around and saw several reporters carrying cameras, filming him.

She went to school today without wearing a mask. Although no one came to cover her to ask for autographs, reporters were still attracted.

In fact, it's normal. There are many reporters outside universities with performance departments. They not only photograph celebrities, but also some famous students.

Of course, now that a big fish has been caught, reporters will definitely not sacrifice the good for the good.

In the past, when celebrities came to school, they would be accompanied by several agents and bodyguards. The main purpose was to guard against these reporters.

However, Luo Quan always travels alone and is relatively easy to talk to. When he meets reporters, he usually interacts a few words and answers some questions.

This time is certainly no exception.

"Do you have anything to ask me?" Luo Quan smiled at the camera.

Several reporters were delighted and quickly asked:

"Will you continue to publish works after you go to school? Or will you devote yourself to studying?"

"What do you think of your ranking in "I Am a Singer" this time?"

"How do you respond to Zhao Yan's remarks?"

There were many questions, and Luo Quan answered them one by one:

"First of all, learning and creation are not opposites. You can also create while learning. I will definitely continue to create new songs for everyone while ensuring learning.

As for me being a singer, I have already posted updates on Station B. The reason for my unsatisfactory results is that I didn’t choose the right subject.

What else did you say? Who is Zhao Yan? "

The reporters looked at each other a few times, and one of them asked: "Didn't you see last night's hot searches?"

"I have to report today, so I went to bed early." Luo Quan answered, opening Weibo on his phone and searching for the name Zhao Yan.

A hot search was quickly found: "Zhao Yan evaluates Luo Quan."

Luo Quan clicked in and found that it was yesterday that a singer named Zhan Yan posted some comments on her on Weibo:

"Luo Quan's songs are quite good, but the composition has no personal style, like a hodgepodge, and the singing always feels like it was sung by a robot, and you can't hear much emotion.

He is a good singer, but he is not qualified to lead the Chinese music scene. "

Emmmm…………

Luo Quan suddenly became curious about this Zhao Yan. This person's evaluation of her was quite to the point. Her family knew about her family affairs. What Zhao Yan said was indeed her only problem at the moment.

In fact, it’s not a big problem, because many singers are like this. After all, emotions are extremely subjective. No one can know whether a singer is emotionally invested in singing.

If she really wanted to reveal her feelings, couldn't she just sing and cry every time in the future?

But that wouldn’t be called singing, it should be called mourning.

As for style, this is better explained, and the sentence "all-round talent" can perfectly round it off. Don't ask, it's just a genius character that ordinary people can't understand.

However, judging from these two arguments, this Zhao Yan still has something, and she is still somewhat different from those so-called music critics who make wild remarks.

In the comment area, the debate among netizens was also quite fierce.

Zhao Yan actually doesn't have many fans herself, just over 3 million, but there are many people who hate Luo Quan, and she got into a heated argument with Luo Quan's fans in the comment area.

"I don't know where an eighteenth-tier singer came from, but he dared to comment on Luo Quan. Who gave you the courage?"

"Can't we evaluate Luo Quan if he's not famous? Who made the rule?"

"What's so bad about Luo Quan's creative ability? Ask the teacher who taught you singing, ask your teacher's teacher if they have the ability to make irresponsible remarks on Luo Quan's talent?"

"Don't misinterpret Zhao Yan's meaning. She just said that Luo Quan's creative style has no personal imprint, and she did not mean to belittle her."

"Again, does Zhao Yan have any works? Has she won any awards? Has she been praised by newspaper reports?

There must be something that can be used, right? Everyone can't be able to take advantage of Luo Quan, right? "

“I suggest you listen to this sister’s work, it feels pretty good.”

"I went to listen to it all. It's indeed good, but it's much worse than Luoquan."

"Your words are used to describe the vast majority of singers in the country. There is nothing wrong with them. You can't compare them like this."

"You guys have taken advantage of all the good words and bad words. Are you really in an invincible position?"

"There's nothing to argue about. Luo Quan's achievements have never been achieved through hype or fan chatter."

……………………

Luo Quan got a preliminary understanding, raised his head and looked at the reporter: "I just found out about this, what do you want me to say?"

Luo Quan's expression was very sincere, as if he was asking the reporters for advice. He didn't feel angry at all.

The reporter who asked the question was a little embarrassed: "This is about you, you should be the one to say it."

Luo Quan smiled: "I don't know much about this Zhao Yan. The evaluation she wrote about me on Weibo was quite objective. She didn't use any bad words, so she was probably right about the situation but not the person.

The problems she mentioned do exist. I think many seniors in China can see it, but no one has ever spoken about it.

I used to pretend I didn’t see it, but now that someone has said it, I will try to correct it...

That's about it for now. I don't know much about Zhao Yan, so I won't say much. "

Several reporters nodded thoughtfully. This situation made Luo Quan frown, and he always felt that these people would process their answers.

But there is nothing we can do about it. What the media likes most is to do these things. Reports without processing will have too low an explosive point. If the explosive point is low, there will be no popularity.

For the sake of popularity, these media people dare to do anything and say anything.

These are beyond Luo Quan's control. I can only pray that these people can show some conscience.

After the interview simply ended, Luo Quan didn't take the matter of Wai Liang to heart.

She has experienced marketing harassment many times before, but it was always some European and American musicians who criticized her, saying that the songs she sang were not good, or directly scolding her.

If Luo Quan responded, he would definitely be trending on Twitter, and this would play into the hands of these people.

Because if you respond, you will invisibly elevate these people to the same level as you. This is of no benefit to you, but it is a great opportunity for them to improve their status.

In the eyes of outsiders, the fact that you can quarrel with Luo Quan proves that you two have similar status and are qualified to compete, and you will easily gain a group of fans.

This kind of marketing is a common marketing method in Europe and the United States. Many of today's big-name celebrities gained the opportunity to skyrocket by recruiting celebrities like Luo Quan who were already famous.

However, Luo Quan has never been this way. She didn't respond to x-on:her requests for quarrels on Twitter, and she just blocked them.

There are so many villains in the world, and she doesn't want to be a stepping stone for these people.

The reason why I responded to Zhao Yan's comments this time was mainly because her evaluation was quite accurate and she didn't curse.

If her work is as good as the comment section says, it means she is probably a talented but underappreciated singer.

Such a singer has the potential to be popular, but the only difference is a chance.

If it weren't for nothing, I probably wouldn't want to have sex with her.

For such people, Luo Quan is quite generous, with the intention of helping him.

Of course, the premise is that Zhao Yan doesn't say too much, and as long as she doesn't attack her personally, everything will be easy to talk about.
