    On the fifth floor, Rolling Stone Records only rented an office of about 200 square meters, while the entire sixth floor was Shen Chong's territory - he invested in building eight of the world's top recording studios and entrusted professional assets  It is managed by a management company and is open to all musicians at very affordable prices. As long as daily operations maintain a break-even balance, the money spent on buying equipment should be used as charity for cultural causes People who engage in artistic creation are more  Casual, with irregular working hours, Shen Chongyu is a good person who works hard to the end and keeps the recording studio open on all hours. This alone has won the hearts of almost all musicians in Taipei.  The front desk on the sixth floor was much more professional than the little girl Huang Yunling. As soon as Shen Chong came up, she stood up and asked politely: "Good evening, sir." "Hello." After this place was built, Shen Chong was still the first  When he came up this time, he looked around and asked, "I'm looking for Miss Zhang Aijia. Which recording studio is she in?" "Is it Mr. Shen?" After receiving a positive answer, the receptionist pointed to the corridor on the left and said  : "Sister Zhang is in the sixth recording studio. Go this way and turn right at the end of the first room." "Thank you." Shen Chong didn't move. He pointed to the right and asked, "Is that the lounge over there?"  "Yes, it's open all night over there. If Mr. Shen needs anything, you can go there and have a look." Shen Chong nodded, and then walked to the right. He drank some liquor and was a little thirsty, so he planned to go and do it.  Order a hot drink, take a look around and take in the surroundings.  The decoration of the lounge is very much like a petty bourgeoisie coffee shop. There are many floral decorations placed among the well-proportioned tables and chairs. There is a piano in the middle, and there is a beautiful shelf next to it with some wind instruments placed on the surrounding walls.  Guitars and other string instruments were hung above. When Shen Chong walked in, there were four or five young people sitting around on the seats near the window, smoking cigarettes and chatting.  ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????]  The moment he turned around, he heard a person say: "Tsai Qin, don't do it in Haishan. Come out and join us and build your own record company." "I don't have much money." Yes, it was Tsai Qin, she used  The iconic mellow voice said: "It costs a lot of money to be a record company, and it can't be done." "It doesn't cost much, you see, we can write songs, Li Shouquan can produce, you and Li Jianfu can sing, rent a recording studio here  It¡¯s not expensive. After recording, go to Xinge to make the record, and then entrust Rolling Stone or UFO to help release it, that¡¯s it. I want to save a little, and I can make an album with 200,000 to 300,000 yuan.¡± Shen Chongting.  When I got here, I took my coffee, sat down at a nearby table, and listened carefully.  "My contract in Haishan has not expired yet." Cai Qin said: "It will be very troublesome if I break the contract. Let me think about it again." "When will your contract expire?" "After the folk style competition is over, I will  I signed a two-year contract with Haishan and it expires at the end of this year. "Mr. Zheng has always taken good care of me. I can't take the initiative to break the contract."  "Consideration?" Another young man said disdainfully: "These bosses are all vampires. They only pay tens of thousands of yuan to write a song, and they even buy out the copyright. They make a lot of money.  We follow the trend. Like the United States and Japan, songwriters can take a commission from the copyright of their works, which is the right approach. "The entire Taiwanese music industry is like this. Even the copyright law still follows the old Huangli of the Qing Dynasty. How can we do it?"  Is there any way? " "Not entirely. I heard that both the Rolling Stones and UFO can sign copyright sharing contracts. Qi Yu's album last year sold more than NT$1 million before New Year's Day, and it is still selling well. According to  With the contract, she can keep collecting money. One record is more profitable than ten records we made. " "You only see the good ones, not the bad ones. As for Luo Dayou, his album is no worse than Qi Yu's.  After being banned, he didn¡¯t make a dime, but he paid back four to five million, and he lost money to death. ¡°If it¡¯s a loss, it¡¯s also a loss for Rolling Stone. Why would he still pay for it?¡± ¡°Luo Dayou used his songwriting copyright to invest in Rolling Stone, and the company lost money.  , of course he also lost money." "Four to five million, it doesn't matter. Anyway, he knows the big boss behind the Rolling Stones, and Zhang Aijia appreciates it. He will make it back by doing a few film scores. I heard that he contributed to "The Heist".  "I only paid 100,000 Hong Kong dollars to do the soundtrack." "That's right. In this day and age, it's fucking shit. No matter how talented you are, it's better to be rich than to be a talented person." "Haha,  Tie Zhang, look at how polite you are, why are you so vulgar? Okay, stop talking, it¡¯s almost time to rest, let¡¯s go and record.¡± After a few people stood up, Shen Chong looked around, and sure enough, there was Cai Qin.  With big curly hair, wearing a brown handmade sweater, and a pair of thick and big black-rimmed glasses, she was very rustic, like a country girl, completely unattractive.Have an elegant and graceful style in the future.  In Shen Chong's opinion, Tsai Chin is one of the most suitable musicians in the Chinese music scene to be promoted to the world. Her voice is highly recognizable, simple yet gorgeous, has universal communication capabilities, and can penetrate cultural barriers.  Even foreigners who don't understand the language can appreciate the beauty.  ¡° Moreover, Tsai Chin¡¯s singing skills and professional quality are both top-notch. She can maintain her performance for more than thirty years and become more charming as she gets older. She is a treasure worth cultivating.  Putting down the coffee cup, he followed them. After seeing clearly the number of the recording studio they entered, Shen Chong walked towards the recording studio No. 6 calmly.  The door frames of the recording studio were wrapped with professional soundproof rubber. When it was pushed open, there was no sound at all. Several people inside were wearing monitoring headphones and were concentrating on listening to Zhang Aijia's singing in the glass soundproof room, without noticing his arrival.  .  Shen Chong didn't bother him. He carefully picked up a monitoring earphone on the table and put it to his ear to listen.  "The wind blows gently, and don't blow down my red roses. The flowers in spring are just small buds, and the red ones in summer are even more charming" It was actually this song, and the corner of Shen Chong's mouth showed up.  With a wry smile, Luo Dayou wanted to stand up this time, but the effect might not be so ideal.  This song "The Wind Blows Gently" was written by Luo Dayou after he was an intern in the hospital and observed the onset of mental illness. In his previous life, he sang it to Zhang Aijia who was still in the music industry.  , as a result, after the album was released, it was scolded by the media, saying that Zhang Aijia's singing voice was not only a child's voice, but also a singing voice that was almost imbecile and demented, empty and emotionless.  So the first collaboration between Luo Dayou and Zhang Aijia ended in disastrous failure. The "Maybe" album containing this song was almost disappeared without a trace, and its popularity was extremely low. It was difficult to find even in Taiwan. Therefore, in the hearts of many music fans,  The album "Childhood" is the first collaboration between Zhang Aijia and Luo Dayou.  "The Wind Blows Gently" was later covered by Liu Wenzheng, which made it a hit and became a household classic. It was not until a few years later, after Luo Dayou revealed his original intention of writing this song, that Zhang Aijia's version had a good reputation, and she was believed to have figured out the spirit.  The patient's hollow voice and expression "Half a step ahead of the times is a genius, but one step ahead of the times is hard to say."  After Zhang Aijia finished singing, she discovered Shen Chong, smiled at him and waved, and only then did the people in the recording studio discover his presence.  "Mr. Shen, welcome." "Mr. Duan, hello, Dayou, hello, who are these two?" "This is Chen Zhiyuan, a genius arranger, and this is Huang Ruifeng, a master of drumming and recording.  "Hello, hello." Shen Chong greeted them quickly.  Chen Zhiyuan, Taiwan¡¯s number one arranger with countless works, Huang Ruifeng, Taiwan¡¯s drum king and recording master, are all names familiar to music lovers.  Zhang Aijia walked out of the soundproof room, held his arm intimately, frowned and asked: "The smell of alcohol is so strong, how much did you drink?" "A little bit." Shen Chong said with a smile: "I spilled a little wine on purpose.  On the clothes, they are used to pretend to be drunk." "How cunning." Zhang Aijia patted him, and then asked Luo Dayou: "How about this time?" "It's okay." Luo Dayou probably can't accept the reality that the goddess fell into the hands of others.  He lowered his head slightly and said a little unnaturally: "There are only two sentences. I need to repeat them again. The voice is more floating and hollow, and the effect should be better." "Which two sentences?" Zhang Aijia dragged Shen Chong and leaned over to take a look.  After looking at the lyrics, he tried to sing it twice softly and said, "Okay, I understand, let's do it again." "Sylvia." Duan Zhongyi wisely tried to dissuade him from the side and said, "It's already very late now.  "How about we record it tomorrow?" "I've been trying to figure it out for a day, and now I've just found the state. Maybe it will be gone tomorrow and I'll have to start over again." Zhang Aijia pushed Shen Chong and said, "Just wait for me.  I'll record it again." "It's okay. It doesn't matter how many times you record it." Shen Chong said with a smile, "Just don't let them get tired." Zhang Aijia gave a smile and then walked into the soundproof room.  I put on my headphones, pondered for a while, and started to audition.  While listening to the singing, Shen Chong picked up the lyrics and looked at it. There were twelve songs in total, seven of which were marked as Luo Dayou's works, "We Were Young", "Four Seasons", "Behind the Scenes",  "Song", "The Wind Blows Gently", "Let's Come Together", "Spring Hope".  He is really talented But if there is anything in this world that butterfly wings cannot flap, it is probably human growth. Luo Dayou is indeed talented, but he is overflowing with randomness. The styles he creates are varied and the content is complex.  , and did not find an accurate outlet.  According to the information from his previous life, Luo Dayou was composing "Childhood" from 1979 until it was completed in 1981 and determined the creation of "the combination of lyrics and music".Only after thinking about it did he find his own direction and become a music godfather. I wonder to what extent he has written "Childhood" at this time?
