Whether a song is good or not, whether it can become a classic, doesn’t need eight or ten years to determine; just a year or two is enough to test it.
Thus, although there are quite a few ancient-style songs in Huaxia, apart from those meticulously composed by a few big shots, most of the ancient-style songs that are popular on the internet for a while are no longer enjoyed in a loop by many people after just a year or two.
This is because for such ancient-style music, not to mention the tunes, the lyricists’ fundamental literary skills are not enough, and without profound cultural heritage in the lyrics, it easily becomes superficial and naturally cannot withstand the test of time.
But classic songs are different.
No matter how long it has been, classic songs, when played, are always enjoyable and can be said to be ever-fresh.
And this ancient-style song obviously has the potential to become a classic.
However, if the lyrics are not well crafted, it could ruin this classic tune.
Upon hearing Ruan Mianmian’s words, Qianxun narrowed her eyes and immediately said, "Give me paper and a pen, I’ll write the lyrics."
She wasn’t bragging; she was really good at lyric writing and composing.
She was also very proficient in musical tones.
And indeed, she couldn’t find any faults with this ancient-style song.
After hearing Qianxun’s words, Ruan Mianmian was startled for a moment but quickly took out a notebook and a fountain pen.
Qianxun looped the song and began to write rapidly on the paper.
A few minutes later, Qianxun stopped writing and then said, "Done, send it to the composer to see if he likes it. If not, no worries."
Ruan Mianmian hurriedly took the notebook and started reading.
A moment later, her eyes lit up.
"He will definitely love it! I can’t believe it, Qianxun, you really have a talent for writing lyrics!" Ruan Mianmian was amazed.
Qianxun’s lyrics incorporated elements of Huaxia civilization’s porcelain, making the text uniquely flavored, and each line of the lyrics rhymed well.
The composer of this ancient-style song was a famous elderly composer from Huaxia, a national treasure-level composer.
The most widely circulated ancient-style songs in the country all bear his handiwork.
This song, if not because his grandson had signed with Yuanhang Group and became the music director, Yuanhang Entertainment wouldn’t have got this song so easily this time.
Soon, Ruan Mianmian said, "I will send the lyrics back now!"
With that, she took out her phone, snapped a photo of the lyrics Qianxun wrote, and then sent it back.
Upon receiving the lyrics from Ruan Mianmian, the music director of Yuanhang Entertainment, Zhao Mingcheng, immediately slammed his hand on the table, "Damn! Who wrote these lyrics? Is it some literary doctor?"
Then, he hurriedly called his grandfather.
"Hello! Grandpa, someone wrote lyrics for your ancient-style song. I think they really meet your standards. What do you think? I’ve already sent them to Assistant Li’s phone," Zhao Mingcheng said excitedly.
Hearing this, Elder Zhao on the other end immediately looked towards his assistant.
At that moment, Assistant Li quickly swiped on his tablet computer and opened the QQ chat.
After opening the image sent by Zhao Mingcheng, he immediately handed it to Elder Zhao.
"Elder Zhao, what do you think?"
Elder Zhao stepped forward, put on his reading glasses, and started reading.
"Great! The beginning features ’Green Words’ popular during the Xia Dynasty era, elaborate but not empty, the lyricist has a profound foundation in literature..."
"Excellent! The climax part is also phenomenal!"
