Chapter 92



In Lu Chen’s heart, this one is his favorite song.

The words are heartfelt1 and the song is ambiguous. This song “Once You” sang the dreams and experiences of Lu Chen, and also contains firm courage and confidence in life, which is his portrayal of today.

So even if this is his first time singing in a studio, he still sang with strong feelings and sang his true self!

“The fantasies of a youthful soul, now you wander the end of the world.”

Through the high-quality listening speakers, the song clearly reached all the ears of those who were in the control room. The members of the Nirvana band were silent, and the laughter, jeer, and ridicule disappeared.

The more they understand music, the more they understand the weight and power of a good song. This is the first time they have heard of this song “Once You”, so they feel more shocked!

Isn’t this the kind of song they want to write, the kind of song that they want to sing and seek, but can’t get?

Even the most unruly young man with long hair put aside his contempt and disapproval of Lu Chen.

They just listen quietly.

“...Seen the world, felt pleasure and pain, still, a pure smile warms the heart like nothing else!”

In the recording room, the residual sound lingers in the air.

Lu Chen’s finger caresses the steel string, the meaning is still not finished!2 (TN: This just mean although he did a good job singing the song, he is still not satisfied and felt he can do better.)

Perhaps it’s the special environment here or maybe it’s because he wanted to sing well for a long time, so he’s in a very good state.

And in this state, acting is called into the play, singing is called delight, which can arouse one’s feeling.

Wang Hui turned his head and said to Wang Jing very seriously, “Sister, the songs he wrote are much better than yours.”

Wang Jing glared and raised her palm, but didn’t swing it down.

Because she can’t refute it.

The man in t-shirt wasn’t convinced, “How do you know this song was written by him?”

Wang Hui did not answer, but pointed to the computer screen.

On the 30-inch LCD screen, the website of Greater China Music Library was clearly displayed, and everything is explained based on the latest query of lyrics.

Works: “Once You” / Lyrics: Lu Chen / Registered Copyright Owner: Lu Chen!

Thanks to technology, people can easily listen to song and know the lyrics with a move of their mouse. This was an irrefutable proof – No one can say that the Greater China Music Library is fake, right?

The man in t-shirt immediately became speechless.

Fortunately, at this time, Lu Chen pushed open the soundproof door and walked out.

Lu Chen returned back the guitar to Wang Jing and said, “Thank you for the guitar. This guitar is very good.”

Wang Jing took it silently with a complicated look.

As proud as she was, she had to admit that she could not write such a song, nor could the Nirvana band.

The young man with long hair took the initiative to reach out to Lu Chen, “Hello, my name is Chen Zhiyong, the drummer of the Nirvana band!”

Lu Chen smiled, “Lu Chen, nice to meet you.”

The Nirvana band of Nirvana Studio has a total of four regular members and one non-staff member. Chen Zhiyong is the drummer, the compassionate man, Zhang Yang, is the bass player, and the small man, Sun Hao, is the keyboard player. (TN: Non-staff – think of it as support member.)

The leader of this small band is Wang Jing, who is also the lead singer and guitarist!

As for the non-staff member, that is, of course, Wang Hui.

Nirvana band usually mainly accompanies the studio soundtrack, and also go out to perform, but most of them are not in bars.

“Lu Chen, come and listen to the effect!”

Wang Hui courteously handed the headphones to Lu Chen. Although the two of them had just met, he was very intimate.

Can you have some integrity?

Wang Jing bit her lip and glared at Wang Hui.

Wang Hui turned a blind eye to his sister. He stared at Lu Chen eagerly, and his face was somewhat nervous.

“Thank you...”

Lu Chen took the headphones and listened to the recording and playback.

Because of the physiological structure reasons, people hear their own voice differently from others.

Lu Chen has heard his own singing before, but they’re all live webcast videos on the internet. There’s nothing to talk about the sound quality at all. It’s no problem to fool ordinary music lovers, but it’s unbearable for picky ears.

Now, the audio recorded through the professional recording studio is completely different. To Lu Chen’s surprise, Wang Hui obviously tuned the sound on the spot and made appropriate modifications, so it sounded very good.

No one’s voice is flawless. If a high-quality voice recorded by professional equipment is not processed, then any defects will be amplified, can be clearly heard, and there will be a problem.

Therefore, the post-processing is very important. A high-quality album often requires a recording engineer or phoneticist to spend a lot of time to modify and adjust, and ultimately reach a perfect level.

The song that was just recorded by Wang Hui was of course not perfect, but the sounds were very good. The song is clear and pure and contains emotional power. The overall timbre tends to be warm and full, making people listen to the surging emotions!

Especially to the processing of the pinnacle point of the song, which was to his satisfaction.

After taking off the headphones, Lu Chen gave Wang Hui a thumbs up, “Great!”

“Not good enough...”

Wang Hui himself was not very satisfied and said, “It’s only 5 or 6 points at the most. I tuned it with the software, and the effect was a lot worse. This song needs a rich timbre to the arrangement. Give me 3 or 4 days to fix it. Then, it can have at least 8 to 9 points!”

Lu Chen smiled and said, “That’s good enough.”

Lu Chen doesn’t know about the rest of the Nirvana Studio, but he already has a sense of trust in Wang Hui.

At least, today, he had not came here for nothing.

Chen Zhiyong asked, “Lu Chen, is this song going to be on your album?”

Earlier, Wang Changsheng explained to them earlier that he had done a good job with the song that Lu Chen brought over, and there was also an entire album to follow.

Lu Chen nodded and said, “If there is no accident, it should be.”

Sun Hao asked, “Which company did you sign in now?”

Lu Chen smiled and said, “I didn’t sign to any entertainment company, and I’m not going to sign to any of them. I’m going to do it alone at the moment.”

“Do it alone?”

The members of the Nirvana band looked at each other. Although Lu Chen’s answer was not very unexpected, they were surprised when it was confirmed.

Chen Zhiyong said, “It’s too difficult to go far on your own, even if you have good works.”

This is indeed the case, Lu Chen himself was also deeply touched.

In today’s era, not to mention the celebrities in the entertainment industry, even those online celebrities; it is basically impossible for them to rely on their own power to kill the Red Sea without professional hype and publicity. (TN: The Red Sea is a market where competition is fierce and money is not easy.)3

There will be some people who will speculate about you, who will hold you down, and who will harm your reputation, and you alone still want to be famous? dream on! (Not sure if I translated this correctly.)

Even Lu Chen himself, although is still successful in [Whale TV], only truly emerge after signing a contract and got the support and promotion of the website.

And the competition in the entertainment industry is too fierce and cruel!

He fought against Jin Hongwei and was directly kicked out of the audition for “Super Singer”.

This is the fate to those who has no backing.

However, Lu Chen has decided to take a different path. His determination is firm and he is working hard.

Wang Jing, who had never spoken, suddenly said, “You are right.”

Lu Chen looked at her in a bit of surprise.

During their conversation, Wang Changsheng came back.

Seeing everyone in the control room gathered around Lu Chen, he asked vaguely, “What’s the matter?”

Lu Chen smiled and said, “I was chatting with everyone. I just listened to the song recorded by Wang Hui and it was very good song. I now believe in your strength, and I think it is right to put my works in the Nirvana Studio.”

It costs no money to say something nice and Lu Chen also hoped they would take good care of his works.

Wang Changsheng was surprised. He patted his son on the shoulder with a laugh. “Good, good!”

Lu Chen said, “Manager Wang, let me invite everyone to dinner in the evening. After all, I’ll be making everyone work hard.”

Wang Changsheng hurriedly said, “No need, and it should be me inviting you to dinner, I’ll do it!”

How can he let the client to invite them to dinner?

Manager Wang’s idea is very simple.

Wang Jing looked on calmly, and in her heart, she added a words to her evaluation of Lu Chen: cunning.

And at the same time, she felt a little depressed – how can such a person write such a song?

Of course, Lu Chen certainly didn’t know Wang Jing’s evaluation of himself, but he has some ideas about Nirvana Studio and Nirvana band. Unsurprisingly, there should be a lot of opportunities for cooperation between them.

So, he would like to have a good relationship with Wang Changsheng, Wang Hui and others. Having many friends means having more path!

In the evening, Lu Chen was invited for dinner.

Two days later, he successfully got the music arrangement completed by Nirvana Studio.

Everything is ready, except for the opportunity!
