Chapter 3252 Recording Songs

In the recording studio of Little Red Horse Music Company, sunlight streamed through the blinds onto the mixing console, illuminating rows of flashing buttons.

The million-dollar sound engineer, A Zhe, arrived early and was setting up his equipment. When he saw Liu Liu walk in, he was about to greet her, after all, she was a female lead with billions in assets and a very impressive presence.

Liuliu took the initiative, smiling and saying, "Handsome guy, it's been a pleasure working with you today!"

Since he was being called handsome, the million-dollar sound engineer, A Zhe, was very accommodating and smiled, saying, "It's my honor to serve you."

Today, Liuliu was wearing a sweatshirt with a little red horse pattern, followed by a large "family and friends group": Xiaobai, Dudu, Xier, Robin, Xiaozhou carrying a harmonica, and Chengcheng, who had been warmly invited by her.

Chengcheng usually doesn't go out on weekends, but this time Liuliu was so enthusiastic that Chengcheng gave her face and came out, which is quite rare for her.

The music director of "Miss Zhao's Family" is a man in his thirties named Li Zhekai. He had been waiting in the recording studio for a while, chatting with the million-dollar sound engineer, A Zhe. When he saw Liu Liu arrive, he suggested that they start working as soon as possible, as time was of the essence.

He was prepared for a tough battle; the failure rate of recording songs for Liuliu is very high, and he might have to stay up all night.

Liu Liu plopped down on a high stool in the recording studio, patted her chest, and said, "Don't worry! I'm all prepared. I practiced for a long time last night, and I got up at five o'clock this morning to warm up my voice. I ate a very light breakfast, just to prepare for recording the song."

This is really professionally done, with every detail taken into account. The million-dollar sound engineer, A Zhe, couldn't help but think that perhaps Liu Liu could really make a name for herself this time.

Xiao Bai said, "Liuliu, stop bragging and get ready to go in."

Liu Liu glanced at her, but instead of arguing, she said, "By the way, where are my lyrics? I need the largest print, otherwise I can't read them!"

Music director Li Zhekai handed over a sheet of lyrics with words twice the size of normal font: "This was printed especially for you. The song title is 'A Lively Home,' and it's all about singing about the liveliness of home. Just sing it out loud!"

Liu Liu took the lyrics sheet, squinted and scanned it, then suddenly raised her hand: "Director! Can I add two lines of lyrics? Like 'Little red horse, so lively, Liu Liu's singing is the most dazzling!'"

Xiao Bai rolled her eyes and said, "You can't help but add drama even when you're recording a song. Can't you be serious for once?"

Liu Liu, with her neck stiff, retorted: "That's called innovation!"

Xiao Bai said, "No, lyrics can't be added arbitrarily."

Liuliu asked, "Why can't we add it?"

Xiao Bai said, "Adding this line ruins the mood of the song. I'm the assistant director, and I said no."

Li Zhe Kai gave Xiao Bai a grateful look. He also disagreed, but he couldn't just talk back like Xiao Bai did. After all, Xiao Bai and Liu Liu had a good relationship, and as the saying goes, "quarrels at the head of the bed are reconciled at the foot of the bed."

Liu Liu was furious: "Fine, fine, I won't add it then! This character isn't big enough! Give me a bigger one."

She received the large-sized lyrics paper, but still complained that the text wasn't big enough and was difficult to read, so she insisted that Xiaobai print out a new copy for her.

Xiao Bai rolled her eyes and complained, "Didn't you say you had already memorized all the lyrics last night? Why do you still need to look at the sheet music?"

Liuliu said, "I'm just trying to make sure everything goes perfectly."

Despite complaining, Xiaobai still printed out a larger printout of the sheet music and handed it to Liuliu, saying, "Here, sing well later. Don't blame the lyrics for not being big enough if you don't sing well."

Liu Liu laughed heartily: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'm serious this time."

Xiaobai helped her adjust the microphone height, deliberately lowering it so that Liuliu had to bend over to sing.

After discovering this, Liuliu said, "Xiaobai, are you trying to work me to death?!"

Xiao Bai said in a serious tone, "Sorry, I didn't notice. I'll turn it up a bit for you now."

The height was set too high; Liuliu has to stand on tiptoe to reach it.

Liu Liu was annoyed with her and waved her away, telling her to get lost and stop causing trouble.

Xiaobai adjusted the height to a suitable level for her and said, "Chengcheng and we are listening outside, so you have to pay attention."

Upon hearing Chengcheng's name, Liuliu immediately assured her, "Don't worry, don't worry, just watch me."

Music director Li Zhe-kai asked, "Has the small boat arrived yet?"

Xi'er tugged at Xiao Zhou beside her: "Xiao Zhou, it's your turn to step up."

Xiao Zhou paused for a moment, then pulled a small harmonica from his pocket: "Here! I'm here."

He was invited to accompany Liu Liu on the harmonica; he plays it very well.

Liu Liu's eyes lit up: "Xiao Zhou, give it a try! With harmonica accompaniment, I can sing even better!"

Xiao Bai teased her, "Now that you have a harmonica accompaniment, you have no excuse for singing off-key!"

A-Zhe quickly adjusted the equipment and set up a microphone for Xiao-Zhou. Xiao-Zhou took a deep breath, placed her fingertips on the harmonica, and gently began to play. A light melody flowed from the harmonica, perfectly matching the rhythm of "A Lively Home," its clean and gentle tone instantly filling the recording studio.

The first recording session featured a light and cheerful melody.

Liu Liu cleared her throat and began to sing, but she went completely off-key after only two lines. The sound engineer, A Zhe, secretly winked at the music director, Li Zhe Kai, telling him to stop the recording quickly, as he couldn't possibly fix it after the recording was finished, even though he was confident in his abilities.

Xiaobai couldn't help but burst out laughing, and Robin, sitting next to her, also laughed heartily, showing no respect for Liuliu at all.

Liu Liu's face immediately darkened, but she was too embarrassed to know whether she should lose her temper.

She stopped on her own initiative, coughed a few times, and made an excuse that she was just testing the waters and wasn't serious.

Now it's for real.

When the second round started, Liuliu hummed along to Xiaozhou's tune and surprisingly didn't go off-key!

However, the voice cracked.

When singing the chorus "With you and me, there is laughter," Liu Liu suddenly cracked her voice and burst out laughing.

Xiao Bai couldn't help but rush in and say, "Liu Liu, be serious, stop playing around."

Xi'er followed along and said from a more professional perspective, "Liuliu, follow Xiaozhou's harmonica rhythm and sing half a beat slower. Don't rush."

Liu Liu nodded, and her singing was indeed much more stable on the third attempt. After finishing, she proudly gave Xiao Bai an "OK" sign.

However, this take is definitely not enough to pass directly; there are still quite a few flaws, and we need to continue recording.

"Again!"

Liu Liu perked up and sat back down on the high stool.

As the harmonica melody began, she began to sing along: "Sunlight streams into my home, a silent warmth spreads across the floor..."

This time, she not only stayed in tune but also adjusted her breath to match the harmonica's melody, adding a touch of gentleness to her voice. When she sang the chorus, she didn't overexert herself and sing off-key; she held the microphone gently with both hands, her eyes focused and serious.

But as she sang, she couldn't help but raise her voice, almost drowning out the harmonica.

Xiao Zhou reacted quickly, slightly increasing the volume of her harmonica and skillfully picking up the tune.

Outside the recording studio, Xi'er nodded quietly, slightly relieved, and returned to sit down on the sofa.

Robin stood curiously behind the glass wall, staring at the harmonica in Xiaozhou's hand, his eyes shining.

My home is so lively, filled with you, me, and laughter—

As she sang the last line, Liuliu gently finished with the harmonica melody, without going off-key, without forgetting the lyrics, and even with a touch of playfulness.

There was a two-second silence in the recording studio, followed by a burst of applause!

"This time it's done!" Li Zhekai was the first to applaud.

"The harmonica accompaniment is such a great addition! Liu Liu's singing is also superb!" A Zhe said with a smile, "This combination is amazing! The gentleness of the harmonica combined with Liu Liu's childlike innocence sounds much better than just a simple accompaniment!"

Liu Liu was also very happy. She put her arm around Xiao Zhou's shoulder, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Zhou, you're amazing! I definitely wouldn't have sung this well without you!"

Xiao Zhou felt a little embarrassed by the hug and said, "You sang very well, I just helped out a little."

Xiao Bai walked over and patted the two on the shoulder: "I didn't expect you two to have such good chemistry. You can debut as a group next time and be surprise guests at Xiwawa's concert!"

Xiao Zhou quickly waved his hand, saying that his harmonica was just for fun and not suitable for such a grand occasion.

Liu Liu's eyes lit up, and she was really considering the suggestion. She would go back and discuss it with Xiwawa, giving Xiwawa some face.

Robin ran over and said, "Brother Xiaozhou, you're really good at playing the harmonica. Can I learn from you?"

Xiao Zhou asked, "Do you like playing the harmonica?"

Robin nodded and said, "That's so cool!"

Xiao Zhou said, "Okay, but first you need a harmonica."

Robin said, "I have money, I'll buy one."

Upon hearing this, Liuliu's gaze unconsciously drifted over, envying Robin's yet another day!
