Chapter 300: Problems

As an art institution with the most majors, the largest investment, and the most avant-garde educational philosophy in China, Shangyi attracts a large number of domestic media every time school starts.

Because the enrollment requirements are relatively low and the management of "special students" is loose, Shangyi is the favorite school for all stars who became famous at a young age, and a large number of stars will be admitted to Shangyi every year.

Of course, if you really want to calm down and learn acting, the best choice is definitely Jingying or Zhongxi.

However, Shangyi is strong in its extremely rich artistic atmosphere. In addition to acting and music, there are also art majors such as oil painting and sculpture, and its strength is also second to none in the country.

Although the school was built for a short time, the school has built quite well in terms of humanistic atmosphere. In addition to beautiful and lush vegetation, there are quite a lot of artworks made by teachers and students of previous sessions on campus.

From stone carvings several meters high to oil paintings, they can be seen everywhere on campus.

In general, Shangyi may not be as good as the top institutions in the country in a certain major, but in terms of comprehensive strength, it is definitely the first in China, especially various hardware, which is updated every year, and the best equipment in the world is used.

Of course, these equipment are public and will be placed in fixed rooms for students to make appointments. In most cases, except for large items like pianos, students will buy an instrument themselves for learning inside and outside class.

Luo Quan studies pop singing, now renamed the Vocal Pop Department of the Conservatory of Music, mainly to cultivate pop singers.

This department is considered a department newly established in recent years. Previously, there were only bel canto and ethnic.

The reason why there was no such thing before is that most bel canto or ethnic singers can sing pop. This singing method derived from black music is actually not difficult for other vocal professionals in China.

Of course, it is not so simple to want to be proficient. Top pop singers are not worse than top bel canto and ethnic singers.

In China, there are many singers who sing pop, but not many people have really gone to school. Many of them became famous later and spent money to buy a hanging diploma from these music institutions to fill the facade.

Currently, the most popular in China is ethnic music, which is a unique singing method in China. It originated from folk songs or mountain songs in China, and integrated some bel canto singing methods during modern development.

Those who learn ethnic music generally don't worry about not finding food. If they can take the postgraduate entrance examination, it is almost equal to having an iron rice bowl given by the country. If they are a little more talented, they will be frequent visitors to various evening parties in the future, and their welfare and income are very good.

Bel canto is the same, and these two are also the two departments most likely to produce national teams.

In comparison, students of pop music seem to be relatively bitter. The competitive pressure is too great, and students are required to have a certain creative ability themselves. Even if they can't compose, they must at least write lyrics.

The most popular era for pop music was Hong Kong and Taiwan at the end of the last century. Heavenly Kings and Queens emerged one after another, but most of them could not create themselves.

Actually, there is no need, because you can directly find Japanese or Korean localization, as long as the singing skills are good.

Under such a large environment, those pop singers who can still insist on their own creation are quite rare and worthy of respect.

If you want to do what you did before now, taking foreign songs and localizing them, making money will definitely make money, but the reputation is estimated to be like this for the rest of your life.

Therefore, if pop singers want to get ahead in this highly competitive era, creative ability is definitely very important.

Imagine, you release a new song, and except for the song name hanging your name at the beginning of the song, the producers behind are all other people's names. What is the scene?

Looking at it yourself is actually not a taste.

This is also why some "unpleasant" songs always appear in the albums of many singers now.

No way, you can't have most of the creators in an album be other people's names, right?

Of course, it is not that there is no situation where singers spend money to buy the right of signature, and it is even quite common, but the buyers of these things generally sign some confidentiality agreements with the creators, so currently it is only known that there is such an unspoken rule, but almost no one has been hammered.

In short, although the current pop music market in China is very huge, as long as a song is popular, it is possible to 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 seriously lagging behind.

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 blow. She remembers the knowledge about pop music in her mind, from introductory to high-end, even more clearly than the teacher.

Of course, coming to a professional classroom to go to school still has benefits, and you can always learn some new things.

As for the instruments used in pop music, it is relatively free. Piano, guitar, and electronic organ are all fine.

Most people choose guitar, and Luo Quan is no exception.

Before coming to school, she bought a moderately priced guitar at a nearby musical instrument store, more than 300 yuan, and the boss gave her a 30% discount. The price was to take a photo with her.

Carrying the guitar and standing at the school gate, Luo Quan sent a message to Seeing Wen Xia:

"Are you acting like a big shot? Why aren't you here yet?"

A few days ago, they agreed to go to school together. Now it's past nine o'clock, and the person hasn't arrived yet.

After a while, Seeing Wen Xia sent a text message: "Isn't it reporting tomorrow?"

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

Five seconds later, a long row of "horrified" expressions appeared in the chat box.

No need to ask, Seeing Wen Xia remembered the reporting time wrong. It is estimated that she just woke up and hasn't gotten up yet.

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

Luo Quan shook her head and smiled, 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, and they were filming themselves.

Going to school today, she didn't wear a mask. Although no one came to ask for her autograph for the time being, it still attracted reporters.

Actually, it is normal. There are many reporters outside universities with acting departments, not only filming stars, but also filming some students who are slightly famous.

Of course, now that they have caught a big fish, the reporters will definitely not abandon the basics and seek the secondary.

In the past, when stars came to school, they would be followed by several agents and bodyguards, mainly to prevent these reporters.

But Luo Quan has always been alone when going out, and she is relatively easy to talk to. When she meets reporters, she will generally interact a few words and answer some questions.

This time is no exception.

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

Several reporters were happy and hurriedly asked:

"Will you continue to release works after going to school? Or will you devote yourself to learning?"

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

"What is your response 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 to bring to everyone while ensuring learning.

As for 'I Am a Singer,' I have already posted a dynamic on Bilibili. The reason for the unsatisfactory results is just that the subject matter was not chosen well.

Besides, what did you say? Who is Zhao Yan?"

The reporters looked at each other, and one of them asked: "Didn't you watch the hot search last night?"

"I have to report today, so I went to bed relatively early." Luo Quan answered while opening her mobile phone Weibo to search for the name Zhao Yan.

Soon a hot search was searched out: "Zhao Yan evaluates Luo Quan."

Luo Quan clicked in and found that it turned out to be yesterday, a singer named Zhao Yan posted on Weibo to name and evaluate her:

"Luo Quan's songs are quite good, but the composition has no personal style, like a hodgepodge, and the singing skills always feel like they are sung by a robot, and I can't hear too much emotion.

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

Emmmm………………

Luo Quan suddenly raised a trace of curiosity about this Zhao Yan. This person's evaluation of herself is quite to the point. The family knows their own affairs. What Zhao Yan said is indeed the only problem she currently has.

Actually, it can't be said to be a big problem, because many singers are like this. After all, emotion is extremely subjective. No one knows whether a singer has put emotion into singing.

If she really wants to reveal emotion, wouldn't she just cry every time she sings?

But that wouldn't be called singing, it should be called crying for the dead.

As for style, this is easier to explain. A sentence of all-around talent can perfectly round it off. Don't ask, ask is genius persona, mortals can't understand.

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

And in the comment area, the arguments of netizens are also quite fierce.

Zhao Yan's own fans are actually not many, just over three million, but there are many people who hate Luo Quan, so they quarreled endlessly with Luo Quan's fans in the comment area.

"I don't know where the eighteenth-line singer came from, and she dares to evaluate Luo Quan. Who gave you the courage?"

"Can't you evaluate Luo Quan if you are not famous? Who stipulated it?"

"What's wrong with blacking Luo Quan's creative ability? Go ask the teacher who taught you to sing, go ask your teacher's teacher, ask them if they have the ability to talk about 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 didn't mean to belittle her."

"Still that sentence, does this Zhao Yan have any works? Has she won any awards? Has she been reported and praised by those newspapers?

There must be something to show, it can't be that anyone can come and black Luo Quan, right?"

"Suggest listening to this sister's works, it feels quite good."

"I went to listen to it specially, it is indeed okay, but it is much worse than Luo Quan."

"You can use this sentence to describe most domestic singers, you can't compare like this."

"You have occupied all the good and bad words, really standing in an invincible position?"

"There is nothing to argue about. Luo Quan's achievements have never been obtained by hype or fans fighting."

……………………

Luo Quan initially understood a general idea, raised her head and looked at the reporter: "I just found out about this matter. What do you want me to say?"

Luo Quan's expression was very sincere, as if she was asking the reporters for advice, and she didn't have any emotions like anger at all.

The questioning reporter 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 is quite objective. She didn't say dirty words. It should be about the matter, not the person.

As for the problems she mentioned, they do exist. I guess many domestic predecessors can see it, but no one has said it.

I also pretended not to see it before, but now that someone has said it, I will also try to correct it…………

Currently, that's about it. I don't know much about Zhao Yan, so I won't say much."

Several reporters nodded thoughtfully. This situation made Luo Quan frown, always feeling that these people would process her answers.

But there is no way. What the media likes most is to do these things. Reports without processing have too low explosive points, and low explosive points have no heat.

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

These are not things Luo Quan can control, so she can only pray that these people can have some conscience.

The simple interview ended, and Luo Quan didn't take this matter to heart.

She had experienced porcelain marketing many times before, but it was some musicians in Europe and the United States who porcelain her, saying that the songs she sang were not good, or directly scolding her.

If Luo Quan responded, she would definitely be on the Twitter hot search, and this just fell into the trap of these people.

Because if you respond, you invisibly raise these people to the same height as you, which has no benefit to yourself, but for them, it is a great opportunity to improve their status.

In the eyes of outsiders, if you can quarrel and tear with Luo Quan, it proves that your status is similar and you have the qualifications to compete, and it is easy to harvest a group of fans.

Such porcelain marketing is a conventional marketing method in the European and American circles. Many big-name stars now relied on porcelain stars like Luo Quan who were already famous to get the opportunity to fly into the sky.

However, Luo Quan never eats this set. For these Twitter requests to tear her, she has no response, just block them.

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

The reason why she responded to Zhao Yan's porcelain this time is mainly because her evaluation is quite to the point, and she didn't scold anyone.

If her works are really as good as what is said in the comment area, it means that she is probably a singer who is talented but not appreciated.

Such a singer has the potential to be popular, but the only thing missing is an opportunity.

If there was no other way, it is estimated that she would not find her to porcelain.

For such people, Luo Quan is still relatively generous, based on the idea of helping if she can.

Of course, the premise is that this Zhao Yan should not say too excessive remarks later. As long as there is no personal attack, everything is easy to talk about.
