"Without my Wang, electronic music would always have been a niche music in China."
Hedgehog Commune | Zhao Siqiang
Sending an interview invitation to Wang's agent, I just wanted to try my luck. After adding WeChat, I expressed my willingness to interview and then posted some reports that I had done in the past.
In the past decade, Wang Yilong has been controversial because of his own songs, and his works such as "The King of Electronic Music" and "Midnight DJ" are regarded as non-mainstream DJ dance music in the countryside, which are popular in major hair salons and squares, and people have given his songs the name of "Tu Hi".
Others say that his "Tuhi" music has directly hindered the development of Chinese electronic music.
<h1 class="ql-align-justify" > Wang Xuanlong - King of Electronic Music</h1>
Wang Xuanlong, who graduated from junior high school, is like the pinduoduo and interesting headlines in the electronic music industry, and the MC Tianyou ten years ago, while sitting on a sufficient number of followers, built a castle of his own; on the other hand, he was spurned by "advanced" and "exquisite", and could not get the respect of some people. His personal life is slightly turbulent, and it is also regarded as a "black spot" for buying a miserable show.
At the end of 2018, he suddenly appeared on a music variety show called "Instant Electric Sound", reawakening people's memories of that era.
He is a peculiar being, and for many people, his music may appear in every detail of life, but no one seems to really understand him. You can say he's hot or you can say no.
"The interview method is email? Or the phone? "The agent agreed to the interview almost immediately." It is best to be able to take photos in face-to-face interviews and walk into his life. ”
I didn't expect the other party to be so cheerful, "Brother Long used to have too little contact with the media, so the song was not impressed by the public!" This time we hope he can come out and let more people know him. After saying that, the agent sent me an H5 made of templates, with the title "Chinese electronic music godfather Wang Xuanlong", the abstract is: electronic music dance music producer, the total number of songs clicked more than half a billion times.
< h1 class="ql-align-center" > return to Quanzhou</h1>
"Did you see that?" On the stage with exquisite sets, 35-year-old Da Zhang Wei stood opposite Wang Xuanlong, who was also 35 years old, and pointed his hand into the distance. Looking at Wang Xuanlong's confused face, Da Zhang Wei added, "Did you see those bullet screens?" "The video footage floats through some post-production bullet screens that say "Wang XuanLong Tu Hi", "King of Electronic Music", "If I were a DJ you would love me"... Wang Xuanlong immediately understood, smiled and said, "I saw it." I came to this show to beat ridicule with a smile. ”
In mid-December 2018, I went to Quanzhou, where Wang Xuanlong now lives, and sitting on the shuttle bus, I asked the driver: "Do you know Wang Yilong?" ”
"Wang Xuanlong?"
"It's the guy who sang 'Would you love me if I were a DJ?'"
"Ah, I see! When he was in school, he and his classmates listened to his songs, how could he be in Quanzhou? ”
I threw the same question to Wang, all I know is that his hometown is in Shenyang, he worked as a DJ in Quanzhou for a few years around 2001, and then went to Beijing.
Why I came back, I don't know.
The opportunity to leave Beijing was the birth of a son. Sitting in the parlor of Wang's studio, he explained to me. The air in Beijing is not good, and I also want to put more energy on my family, so I returned to Quanzhou, where the climate is better. "Cities like Beijing and Shanghai are suitable for a large public place, and when you make money and want a better life, you find that this city can't give you a better life."
His life in Quanzhou does seem to be difficult to achieve in Beijing. After returning, Wang Xuanlong rented a three-storey villa in a villa area as his studio and school. Many famous brands in Quanzhou, such as the bosses of ANTA and Xtep, also live in this community.
The house with the courtyard before and after a total of more than 800 square meters, the previous occupants lived here for 5 years, the open space behind the house has not been taken care of, after moving over, Wang Xuanlong planted some sunflowers, and at the end of the year, he wanted to plant something else.
The whole house took a small 200,000 yuan to renovate, and in the reception room there was a set of European-style solid wood sofas, and on the table was a set of tea sets. "No matter what the conditions at home in Quanzhou, there must be a set of tea sets." Wang Xuanlong said that he now spends the most money, in addition to buying music equipment, is to drink tea. "My tea is thousands of pounds."
The wall of the living room on the first floor hangs the company's logo, which is an inverted triangle, and Wang Xuanlong explains that this is the epitome of his life situation, "I have always wanted to find a foothold, even if this foothold is only a point." ”
In 2006, Wang Xuanlong left Quanzhou, where he had lived for 5 years, went to Beijing to sign a record company, officially turned from DJ to singer, wang Yilong, who had been a DJ for nearly 10 years, had a small reputation in the DJ circle, and his monthly income was also considerable, in addition to salary, there were also tips for guests and tuition income for teaching, which could earn more than 20,000 yuan a month.
"The singers in the Beijing pop music circle don't play with me, and I'm very lonely." Before Wang, Chinese mainland had never had a precedent for a nighttime DJ to sign a record, and fewer people knew about the concept of electronic music. To have a platform like today to do an electronic music program was even more unimaginable at that time.
After two years of hip-hop boom, the hot makers have turned their attention to electronic music, which originated overseas for many years, a variety of complex musical styles, is becoming a new trend, and many people are rubbing their fists in the hope of creating new idols.
But this is no longer the era of Wang Yilong, in his time, the company owner introduced him to others and did not know how to introduce, can only say that he did Diqu, do slow shaking. "In their eyes I'm not a singer, I'm not an original musician."
Some pop singers approached Wang to make a remix version of their own song so that the DJs in the bar could play their own songs, saying "I know your DJ is very good, can you make me a DJ version?" Wang Xuanlong felt that there was no way to explain.
In 2007, Wang Xuanlong released his first album "Kangdian Love Song", the most popular song is the male and female duet "Shake Ah Shake", although the album was launched in his own name, but when introducing this song to others, someone will say, "Is this song sung by you?" Isn't that what women sing? The company arranged for his female partner to sing "Shake Ah Shake" more times than he did, and some people asked, "Is Wang Xuanlong a man or a woman?" ”
That was when China's music industry was hit the hardest by the Internet, with record sales declining and piracy rampant. After the first album, Wang Yilong and the company's philosophy were hidden in the snow, and therefore cut off the income, "Many fans said to me, the newly bought mp3 preset has my songs, but I can't earn a penny." ”
"Then how do you survive?" I asked him.
Wang Xuanlong hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I can also give you an exclusive revelation of this, I was making money selling clothes on Taobao at that time." During that time, every morning at five o'clock, Wang Xuanlong went to the wholesale market next to the Beijing Zoo to make himself a model.
This life lasted for two years, Wang Yilong and the company broke the contract, set up their own company, while relying on the original better DJ training to make money, while making their own music. In the first year of the establishment of the company, Wang Yilong released three albums in a row, arranged lyrics, composition and arrangement, because of insufficient budget, MV is also his own director. "I haven't released an album in the previous two years, and I want to compensate my fans."
Because of all the things he had received before, Wang Xuanlong positioned himself as a promoter of electronic music. "When I play electronic music, who understands electronic music?" I just wanted to know how to make these two words popular in the public eye, so I had the song "The King of Electric Music". ”
Wang Xuanlong said that he wanted to make a song, the song title has two words of electric sound, just Zhou Xingchi has a movie called "The King of Comedy", and his surname is Wang, and he has the name "King of Electric Music". In his view, Zhou Xingchi in "The King of Comedy" is a small role in running a dragon set, and his song is also the same reason.
One day, the owner of a record company called and asked Wang How much it cost wang's "Midnight DJ" to rank tenth in Baidu's top 500 songs. "I didn't spend any money." Wang Xuanlong turned on the computer and found that his own songs, which were originally classified as DJ dance music, really lay in the tenth place on the chart.
"From that moment on, the attitude of the pop music industry towards me changed, because a lot of people in this position couldn't get up with their money." Wang Yilong found that people who wanted to make pop music did not make songs that were not as popular as his. "Everyone knows that the original DJ dance music can still be on this kind of list."
"I had a hard time proving myself and letting people who had looked down on me look down on me. I found that the people in the original camp began to denigrate me. "Fake DJs, soil, plagiarism, exposure is followed by questioning and attacks, especially in the DJ circle and the electric voice coil, Wang Xuanlong's name has become the target of public criticism."
"'Black' has an inevitable condition, that is, you are better than him, you will be hacked. Black you are nothing more than two kinds of people, one is inferior to you, and the other wants to surpass you. Wang Yilong believes that because he has done what others have not done, others have elevated himself by belittling him.
When the first album was released, Wang Xuanlong went to a nightclub in Fuzhou to perform, sitting next to the resident DJ, a staff member said to the resident DJ: "You see people used to be DJs, you are also DJs, and now people have become stars." ”
After that time, Wang Xuanlong somewhat understood why he would be rejected by the DJs in the original circle, "It's not that I have become dragged and looked down on them, it's that they have problems in their hearts." ”
"There is also the blackness of commercial interests, some people take a fancy to my position and want to pull me down from this position, you see who wants to put the name of the first person in Chinese electronic music on their heads now, who is the black hand behind the scenes." Wang Xuanlong said, "When I say first, I mean the first person on the mainland to play original electronic music, not the most powerful meaning." Wang Xuanlong added.
<h1 class="ql-align-center" > wild road</h1>
The first link of "Instant Electric Sound" is to select the main manager, and the main manager Zhang Yixing, Shang Wenjie, and Da Zhang Wei give keywords. The contestants choose according to their own wishes and perform. Wang Xuanlong chose the key word given by Da Zhang Wei: Wild Road. Da Zhang Wei explained this keyword like this: "I believe that there are many people on the scene like me, learning electronic music is from various audio websites little by little, but because we all love music, we will use this wild way to continue to do so hard." Wang Yilong felt that this was himself, so he stood out. The performance track is one of his most famous pieces: "The King of Electronic Music", only this time it is no longer the arrangement version of a decade ago, but it has been remade into the more popular Dupstep (Echo bass) style. At the end of the song, Da Zhang Wei commented, "Your music has no attitude. Other people do this because they love this (Dupstep), you do this because of this popularity. The players in the waiting room cheered.
From dropping out of junior high school at the age of 14 to become a DJ to now working as a singer, Wang Has only found a teacher once to learn DJing techniques. Now the teacher has stopped being a DJ and has become a yoga instructor.
In 1997, Shenyang was one of the main transport destinations for DJs in China. Ramen is only 5 yuan for 1 yuan, and the tuition fee for studying DJ is 2700 yuan.
The tuition fee was given by Wang Xuanlong's mother, who had been divorced from Wang's father for 7 years, doing business in other places, and occasionally returned to visit Wang Xuanlong, who lived with her father.
His father was a gambler, and the family had little money. Every day in school, Wang Yilong fills the lunch box with raw rice and takes it to the school's boiler room to steam it into rice. At noon, when eating, Wang Yilong took this rice through the classroom, clipped the dishes brought by the students to eat, and each person took a bite, and he was full.
In junior high school, Wang Yilong's grades were not bad, and the highest level of education in his family was his mother, who graduated from high school. So he wanted to take a key high school, and then a key university, Guangzong Yaozu. He told his father what he thought, and he said, "No money, where do you like to go after junior high school, I will not give you a penny." ”
"If I have a good family for me to go to college, I don't have a problem getting a PhD." Unable to get more reading opportunities, Wang Yilong became inquisitive and wanted to know everything.
He was very talkative, the first day of the interview lasted nearly eight hours, no matter what the topic, he could always tell a lot of stories, Quanzhou beef soup practice, how Sima Yan moved to Quanzhou, Tang Bohu went to the brothel to paint in order to survive, and even why Hitler failed in Russia, he could tell a thing or two.
He also knows the signs very well, "I am Cancer, I should not be good at talking, but my ascending sign is Libra, so I am more talkative." What zodiac sign are you? ”
The most talked about is still about music, after the road to further education was blocked, Wang Xuanlong wanted to find another way to survive. One day, a classmate said to him, don't you like to listen to electronic dance music, I will take you to a place, buy a two-dollar ticket, you can listen to it for an afternoon.
In the disco called the Carnival Club, Wang Met the DJ for the first time. When his mother came back to see him, he took the opportunity to open his mouth and ask for tuition. After visiting the teacher, Wang Xuanlong skipped class in the afternoon to learn DJing, and also drew a DJ player on the textbook, and practiced imaginaryly during class.
One day Wang Xuanlong played on the court, the brother hit his BB machine, saying that Qiqihar lacked an MC that controlled the field, Wang Xuanlong thought about it and agreed. Before he finished junior high school, he dropped out of school, and my father later went to school to get a blue certificate.
The life of a DJ on the move began. Wang Xuanlong gave himself a stage name, called DJ Sunny (Sunshine) "When I was a DJ, I stayed up late every day and couldn't see the sun, so I longed for sunshine and hoped that my heart would be full of sunshine." In the famous song "Midnight DJ", Wang Xuanlong also wrote: Whenever night falls, we wake up and open our eyes.
Djs are very mobile, and how long they can stay in a bar basically depends on how long the boss's freshness can be maintained. Life is also good and bad, in Qiqihar to do MC, Wang Yilong can take 70 yuan a day, go to Daqing to do DJ, and only 500 yuan a month. Sometimes, before the salary was paid, the bar closed, and Wang Yilong, who was still a minor, did not have an ID card, so he ran to sleep on a stone bench in the park for two days.
"It was a very chaotic bar at that time, sometimes suddenly a beer bottle flew up, and sometimes you could hear someone shooting below." When toasting with the guests, Wang Xuanlong wanted to bring his own wine, and did not dare to accept the wine that the guests handed over, because they might be drugged. Once Wang Yilong had a drink with a guest before work, and woke up the next day, not remembering how he got home.
In order to survive in such a chaotic environment, Wang Xuanlong quickly learned to observe the color. "Every time I am paid, I wonder who can let me work here for a few more days, whether to invite the security captain to have a meal, in case one day there are guests who drink too much and beat me, at least someone can take care of me."
He still retains the habit of thinking that he rarely clashes with people, and sometimes prefers to suffer losses himself. "For example, when someone borrows money and doesn't pay it back, I think that if he doesn't even dare to look at me because of this money, it means that he is not very good."
The spirit of service has also been engraved in his mind, after returning to Quanzhou, Wang Xuanlong and a friend he knew opened a bar, and on the first night of the interview, Wang Xuanlong took me to sit for a while. The bar has installed a "net red door" that looks like a bookcase, which is very popular throughout the bar street, and there is a seat by the window for "net red" to take photos and punch cards, with pink lights.
The resident band is from Taiwan, and when the performance, the big screen behind it plays a video of Wang Yilong participating in the show. Most bars on the same street will choose to hire Filipino bands because it's cheap. Wang Yilong feels that it is not bad money, and Taiwanese bands are better, not only can sing, but also interact with the audience.
Coming out of the bathroom, Wang Xuanlong asked me, "Have you noticed anything different in our bathroom?" He was happy with the fact that sanitary napkins were placed in the bathroom, "I told them that we must do our best service." ”
Quanzhou's bar business was very good more than a decade ago, and Wang Xuanlong stopped his footsteps of wandering around and stationed in Quanzhou. There are many reports on the Internet about this experience: he was introduced to Quanzhou by netizens, and as a result, all the money was stolen by netizens. Shortly after starting work, I also met more than 40 DJs who "kicked the pavilion".
The DJ of the kicking hall acknowledged Wang Xuanlong's skills, but felt that Wang Xuanlong's songs were too outdated, "They use songs made by Filipino DJs, I want to prove myself, thinking that I will learn it." ”
The time came to 2001, when he refuted Zhang Wei's questioning in the program, "In 2001, I rented a Pentium 3 computer in an Internet café and taught myself music production. Wang Yilong said in the program.
"I have known since I was a child that everyone's starting line is different, the birth environment and parents cannot choose, but the heavens are fair, and fairness is 24 hours for everyone." Recalling that time, Wang Yilong said that he had forgotten to eat and sleep for music.
At that time, many of the songs made were put on plagiarized hats, and Wang Xuanlong felt that it was just imitation and borrowing. "Electric music is an imported product, and if Chinese want to do it, it must start with imitation." You will find a problem, who is angry is plagiarism. ”
Unlike the situation where song engineering files can now be easily downloaded, more than a decade ago, Wang Xuanlong could only listen to it while looking for similar sounds in the software. "Basically it's all about groping, twisting, and pressing, and today A song may be figured out in a day, and it will take me a month to copy seventy percent."
After working in nightclubs for ten years, Wang Has seen firsthand how disco music is defeated by House music, so he knows the popularity of a genre of music, which may not be more than ten years. "As long as your song is popular enough, even if it is fashionable, it will become a dirt hi, my song used to be a fashion." Some deny that I lead the mainstream, but are eager to join the mainstream. Did you know that the day you became mainstream was Tuhi? ”
<h1 class="ql-align-center" > toy factory</h1>
On December 8th, Thei-General, a popular contestant in the show, posted a Weibo post, saying that one of the biggest gains of the show was learning a healthy tea ceremony with Wang Yilong. Some fans asked, have you been kidnapped? "Fans feel that Tiwang Xuanlong is a drop in the grade, but in Anti's heart, it is actually upgrading its own grade." Saying that Wang Xuanlong gave me a piece of ginger candy, "After drinking tea for a day, if you don't eat a piece of sugar, your head will be dizzy." When drinking tea, Wang Xuanlong should put a fewAsa nova style songs, "People can't just listen to one style of songs, otherwise they will become exclusive." After the interview began, Wang Xuanlong turned the music down slightly.
After participating in the program, Wang Yilong unexpectedly found that the young people in the program had great respect for him, "When communicating with them, all of them took the initiative to add my WeChat and pay attention to my Weibo." Before going there, I was worried that they might be hostile to me, and after I went, I found that these people may not like my songs, but they are recognized for the popularity and fame of my songs. ”
Many of the contestants in the show don't know each other, but everyone knows Wang Xuanlong. A female singer abroad told Wang That in Vancouver, as long as it is a Chinese community, you can hear his songs. "My brother listens to The King of Electric Music every day."
Tsunano, a player who has been on One of the world's three major electric syllable festivals, Tsunano, asked Wang Xuanlong for the voice of "Midnight DJ", saying that he wanted to make remix for this song, and a contestant who did experimental electronics sent a message to Wang Xuanlong: "My girlfriend likes your song every day these days." ”
This influence is not limited to the contestants, but spread to every link in the recording, the on-site director said that he grew up listening to his songs, makeup artists and stylists came to take a group photo, when stationed in the hotel, the front desk asked, "Are you Mr. Wang, the king of singing electronic music?" Didn't expect our hotel to stay star! ”
Wang Yilong felt that the purpose of coming to participate in the program had been achieved, "I came to tell people all over China that popular electronic music is also electronic sound." I want you to respect my electronic voice, this show is incomplete without my electronic sound, I have to be present, without me, electronic music is missing a link. Without wang, electronic music would always be niche music in China. ”
Now when it comes to his own musical philosophy, Wang Xuanlong is very clear, that is, commercial electronic music, popular electronic music. "My purpose is to promote and popularize electronic music. What is the real promotion, the low threshold is the real promotion, which people can listen to a minute to lay the groundwork for your Drop (rand)"
"There are two kinds of music, one is to use it as a hobby, DIY a toy yourself, and play with it for yourself. And I'm a toy factory, I have to think about what the children like now, what they want to play with, and how to make my toys sell more. Wang Said that when he wrote songs, he spent at least half of his time studying the market.
He can give a series of examples to explain his philosophy: it is actually Shangdao coffee that popularizes Chinese steak; it is not Michelin restaurants that really promote Western food to China, but McDonald's, KFC; BMW and Fiat, which acquired Rolls-Royce and Maserati, and made their fortune by selling affordable cars... There are a few cases that have been mentioned more than once – he can always shift the conversation to the topic.
When the album "The King of Electronic Music" was released, Wang Xuanlong found that the popular singers on campus at that time were singers such as Xu Song and Wang Sutaki, so he changed his singing voice, some old fans felt a bit "mother", but the post-90s fans liked it. "If you really want to catch the fans, you have to grab the fans in the school, because they will remember you for the rest of your life." It was necessary to study what idols the people on campus liked at that time, and how they sang. ”
"The first time I heard the electric sound was on the street, so I think that the electric sound can be fired on the street is a success." Many people on the street hear my song on the hi, what is called tu hi, is there no cover, any bedding, come up on hi. ”
After ten years as a DJ, Wang Xuanlong saw through the people who were looking for happiness in the night show. "Some people's happiness is to be the leader, and my song can make people the leader and lead everyone to hi together."
"Music is not high or low, as long as you like this, it is the best, in the eyes of my fans, I am better than the world's top 100 DJs." 」 In the program, Wang Xuanlong responded to Zhang Wei's ridicule in this way, and this passage was intercepted by some people in the second half and became Wang Xuanlong's latest black dot.
After the recording of the show, a contestant came to Quanzhou to chat with Wang Xuanlong, and Wang Xuanlong asked her, do you know why your song is not hot? Because you're doing the arrangement first, and then writing the songwriting, it's a huge mistake to compose the song with the arrangement.
"My 'Midnight DJ' and 'King of Electronic Music' can be composed into other genres after fifty years, but your current arrangement is listened to at that time, and you may not know what the soil looks like!" At the end of 2018, Wang Yilong plans to rearrange his original old songs and produce a "Ten-Year Classic Album of the King of Tu hi", which has now released two singles. "Someone else's call is an electric tone, my name is a song." The way it was written was wrong, and the song never caught fire. ”
"I now agree more with the truth that data is king, and the popularity of my music is the biggest proof for me." From a popular point of view, Wang Yilong is successful, several of his well-known works have been hit by more than 100 million on QQ music, surviving the era of copyright chaos, the high flow of songs has brought Wang Yilong a very considerable copyright income, Tencent Music and Wang Yilong signed exclusive copyrights, seven figures per year.
"My music makes me a lot of money, is it really bad?" Why are so many people clicking, what is the good or bad of a thing measured by sales? If the artworks are priceless, then why auction them, just give them away for free. ”
He doesn't shy away from talking about money at all, "When you're young, you can do it for hobbies, but when you have to give your family a good life one day, you find that your music can't support your family." After a long time you will give up. What's the use of just having a false name? ”
"It's a different option to see what you want. I want my music to be heard by more people. Wang Admires the niche musicians who insist on making their own music, but he tells himself that as a professional musician, you must make money from music. And to make a lot of money. "I don't want to make money like others and pretend that I don't care about money, I need money to prove my artistic worth." 」
<h1 class="ql-align-center" > not bothered</h1>
In the first episode of the show, Anti-General was besieged by fans because he evaluated a few big Zhang Wei, and Wang Xuanlong comforted him: Since you participate in this show, you will enter the public's field of vision, you will see the evaluation of people who do not like your taste, and you must accept it. "You think it's amazing when you have two or three thousand comments per song. Do you know? I have twenty or thirty thousand comments, all of which are scolding me. ”
After nearly twenty years of turbulent life, Wang Yilong's life has gained hard-won stability. He was baptized with his wife a few years ago, which made him much more peaceful.
"Jesus said, 'How you judge others, you judge others.' The people around me were sometimes surprised by some of Wang Xuanlong's thoughts. "We see that the black fans on the Internet are very angry, and Brother Long will say that if that person is very rude, it may be that his life has not been going well recently, and he should be considerate." Assistant Cat Cat said.
Speaking of the past, Wang Xuanlong has always been "these did not bother me, then did not, and now there is not" attitude, just arrived in Beijing is not recognized by the pop music circle, Wang Xuanlong told himself, when a person climbs to the top of the mountain, sees a higher mountain and wants to climb. First of all, you have to walk down from the top of the current mountain, and then go up from the bottom of that mountain. Since choosing to go from DJ to singer, these things are bound to go through.
As for the black powder, there is no reason to be angry with them. "I am a person who constantly beats myself with a whip and makes myself progress, with these black powders, it becomes that they are smoking me with a whip, it can be said that having them makes my life colorful." 」
"I think the people who understand me the most are my fans, as long as the fans understand me." For the hat of "Tu Hi" that was fastened, Wang Xuanlong did not feel troubled. "Times are different, and comparing previous things to the present is deliberate, which just proves that they don't understand electronic music."
No one knows if this reconciliation really happened at the time, or if it is ripe enough to forget how it felt then. The only time he mentioned something that had made him uncomfortable in the past was to explain why he didn't like being interviewed.
"It's always those few questions that come and go, and like a repeater, the reporter always brings out the original particularly poignant things." At that time, the contradictions between Wang Yilong and his family had not yet been reconciled, and he said that every time he mentioned it in an interview, he would be sad once. "Now that my life is better, it's indifferent."
"I used to hate my father so much that I felt he was holding me back in my life, but now I feel that if he hadn't flattened my dreams, I wouldn't have achieved what I am today." Wang Yilong lamented that dropping out of school to become a DJ at that time was a "bigger surprise" prepared by God for him.
After having children, Wang Yilong began to slowly reduce the time spent at work, and he set a rule for himself that he could not go out to perform more than four times a month. "Cancer loves home." When he didn't go to the performance, Wang Xuanlong was in his studio, making music and teaching.
This time to run a school, and the previous use of life is not the same, Wang Yilong wants to make his own label. On the homepage of his training school, there are three types of courses: the all-round electronic music creation class, the all-round artist singing class, and the advanced electronic music training class.
In addition to the basic creation and singing, there are also instrument shape classes, media interview language classes, MV lens performance classes, costume styling classes, stage performance classes, etc., all taught by Wang Yilong, with a tuition fee of 28800. Eighteen-year-old Xiaolong signed up for this class, rushed from Hunan, repeated the grade for a year to learn rap with Wang Yilong, and then returned to school next year to prepare for the college entrance examination.
The little dragon is in class
Wang Xuanlong has always maintained a high sense of artistry, and after passing thirty years old, his body is easy to be blessed, and Wang Xuanlong eats less and controls his body shape. "I don't usually wear clothes with a logo, otherwise I will be used as an endorsement."
Assistant Cat Cat is a native of Quanzhou, because he and Wang Yilong have a mutual friend, and the two people met when they met at a party. At that time, the cat did not know who he was, but found that everyone was drinking, only Wang Xuanlong did not drink. After asking, Wang Xuanlong said that he was an artist and was afraid of drinking outside and losing his attitude.
He even rarely said swear words.
Ajie was the first student of Wang Yilong to run a school in Quanzhou, he had been doing radio and television programs in Beijing for many years, and when Wang Xuanlong was training in Beijing in 2009, he wanted to come to study, but he did not have enough courage and savings at that time. A few months ago, I saw the enrollment again and resigned.
Now he did not think about whether to make music production a profession, "first as an interest, interest is the most important." He insisted on calling Wang "Master" because he felt that "this is a Chinese tradition." Learn from the teacher, and the relationship should be smooth."
After participating in the show, Wang Xuanlong also contacted some contestants and wanted to sign them under his banner. "I can get the people I sign up to do niche stuff, and I'll still continue on my mass market." It's like Adidas acquiring a small tide brand. ”
More importantly, he wants to find talents who inherit his own ideas in the post-90s and post-00s, and carry forward the popular electronic music.
"Like my electric voice, just swing with me, don't like my electric sound, you can't stop my existence." 」 This is what Wang Yilong wants to say to those "bullet screens" in the show. During the two days of exchanges, Wang Xuanlong mentioned many times that he wanted to make the electronic music 85 years old." ”
He should be serious.
