Chapter 84

Zhao He and his team are highly professional musicians. Indeed, they had input the melody into the music computer in less than half an hour after receiving the song from Jin Yufan, and they indicated that Jin Yufan could enter the recording studio to try out the recording effect.

Jin Yufan is undoubtedly a very professional singer, a performer who monopolized various assessments during his trainee period at DSP, and a singer with vocal skills and talent that even the members of Fin.K.L envied. This determined that Jin Yufan's recording process would go smoothly and without a hitch.

Because Jin Yufan's recording process went so smoothly, without any issues, this completely infuriated and frustrated Zhao He.

The reason is simple: Jin Yufan's recording was too smooth and too perfect, leaving Zhao He no opportunity to scold him.

Don't find it strange. Not only in South Korea, but almost all musicians worldwide, when helping singers record songs, often find that singers overlook some small details or handle them poorly.

Although some musicians also compose songs, this does not mean that all musicians can create songs. Otherwise, they would be called composers.

In a true sense, the primary task and focus of a musician is to help singers record songs. A musician's reputation, money, and status—all of these are closely related to the quality and success of the songs they help record.

It's no exaggeration to say that when a singer goes to the recording studio to record a song, the person who is most nervous and concerned about the final recording is not the singer themselves, but the musician in charge.

Therefore, when a singer records a song, the musician is also very tense and under a lot of pressure. In such a situation, singers often face scolding and yelling from the musician when they overlook or mishandle some small details and areas.

Singers also understand that the musician's scolding and yelling are out of dedication to their work and ultimately for the singer's benefit. Therefore, singers often humbly accept the scolding and yelling without getting angry.

Over time, it has become almost normal for singers to be scolded and yelled at by musicians in the recording studio. Some even joke that if a singer is not scolded or yelled at by a musician in the studio, then the singer is not up to par.

Because if you don't even have the opportunity to be scolded or yelled at, it shows how useless and lacking in skill you are, to the point where the musician has given up on you and doesn't bother to scold or yell at you.

However, there are also those who have an astonishingly perfect grasp of the song and possess exceptional singing skills and techniques. Such people are not scolded or yelled at by musicians because they make no mistakes, and there is no need to do so. You can't just pick a fight or nitpick to scold and yell at such singers.

Zhao He is not a hot-tempered person, but as a musician, he often encounters singers making mistakes during recording that cannot be corrected, and over time, he can't help but start scolding them.

Over time, although Zhao He doesn't particularly enjoy scolding and yelling at singers in the studio, he has become accustomed to it, and sometimes scolding and yelling are inevitable.

But Jin Yufan is the second type of singer, and this leaves Zhao He with no opportunity to scold him. This habit of scolding, but being unable to do so, leaves Zhao He feeling frustrated and unsatisfied.

When Jin Yufan came out of the recording studio and asked Zhao He about the recording, Zhao He gave him a displeased look and casually said it was fine, and then added, "Yufan, it's clear you're very good, very smart, and have great potential. For a single or an album, come and learn how to record an album with me."

"Sure, no problem, I'd like to learn!" Hearing Zhao He's suggestion, Jin Yufan thought about it and readily agreed.

After all, learning more is never a bad thing, and recording an album is completely different from recording a single. If Jin Yufan can learn to record an album, he can fully control the entire recording process and ensure that the album meets his desired effect.

However, Zhao He's suggestion was not entirely out of kindness. While he wanted to see Jin Yufan's learning ability and have him learn more, he also saw it as an opportunity to scold and yell at Jin Yufan.

Since Jin Yufan is familiar with the song and has perfect singing skills and techniques, there was no opportunity to scold him. But recording an album is completely different from recording a single, and there are bound to be areas where he is not familiar, giving Zhao He the chance to scold and yell at him.

In fact, Zhao He did achieve his goal. While scolding Jin Yufan, he unknowingly taught him the entire process and steps of recording an album, to the point where Jin Yufan showed signs of surpassing his teacher.

When Jin Yufan left DSP Entertainment, it was already 1 a.m. He had participated in KBS TV's "Music Bank" all day, being directed by seniors, and hadn't had a proper rest. After returning to DSP Entertainment, he started working on his new single, and by now, he was really feeling hungry.

"Alright, Grandma is already resting, so let's go get some late-night snacks!" After thinking about it, Jin Yufan headed in the direction to the left of DSP Entertainment. If he remembered correctly, he had heard from Kim Hyun-joong that there was a street food area there.

At this hour, if you want to have a drink and some food, the only option is street food.

Street food is a major feature of South Korea, similar to night markets in China. Although the quality is not high, the flavors are diverse, and the prices are affordable, making it a popular choice for gatherings among friends in South Korea.

Sure enough, after walking for less than ten minutes, Jin Yufan saw a few-meter-wide road in front of him, and on both sides of the road, the lights of various street food stalls warmly invited all customers.

He casually chose a street food stall and habitually picked a table at the back. "Boss, give me a plate of rice cakes, a plate of rice intestines, and five skewers of fish balls and fish rolls!"

"Sure, please wait a moment!" Hearing Jin Yufan's order, the middle-aged boss immediately responded and started working.

Since it would take some time for the food to be served, Jin Yufan, feeling bored, subconsciously picked up the phone provided by the company and started browsing the internet for news and comments about himself.
