Translator: 549690339
Harrison Clark stayed at Beiduo Music Academy for a few more days, mainly to help Carrie Thomas produce songs.
He didnât participate much in the recording of âA Dull Life,â which was about to be completed, and instead focused most of his energy on the production of the accompaniment for âThe Fire.â
Copying was copying, but out of a sense of responsibility, he had to ensure that this song was consistent with the future version, without any discrepancies.
In the original timeline, it didnât take Carrie Thomas long to complete the composition of âThe Fireâ after creating the lyrics, but there was no hero saving the day involved in this process.
The most significant and impactful event for Carrie Thomas during this time should have been Susan Lambertâs car accident death.
She believed that she should bear the main responsibility for Susan Lambert suddenly fainting while driving.
At that time, she must have been overwhelmed by guilt, and at the same time, realized the emotions of Susan Lambert sacrificing herself in pursuit of her dream. Eventually, under the influence of these emotions, her inspiration burst forth, and she completed the arrangement of âThe Fire.â
Harrison Clark was uncertain whether Carrie Thomasâ inspiration and creative level could satisfy âThe Fireâsâ realm after losing this life experience.
In case she decides that a certain melody is not appropriate and changes it, and the change is not as good, Harrison Clark would be shooting himself in the foot.
He didnât want to ruin this highly important military song, so it was better to watch it personally and then explain the creative motivation of these melodies to Carrie Thomas one note at a time, as if dissecting âThe Fireâsâ mysteries like a chef dissecting an ox.
He himself surely didnât have that level of skill, but countless music critics in history had spent nearly a thousand years pondering this song.
Just analyzing âThe Fireâsâ rhythm, notes, and lyrics had produced a branch discipline within the college of music appreciation called âFire Studies.â
Harrison Clark had read those scholarsâ works when he was free.
Harrison Clark: âThere is a repeated chord here. But it only seems repetitive. Compared to the previous section, the rhythm of the repeated chords speeds up by 17%, with a consistent baseline for each note and a shorter time. The purpose is to create an even stronger sense of urgency, further elevating the listenerâs emotional resonance.â
Carrie Thomas asked, âWhy 17% instead of 15% or 20°/o?â
Harrison Clark: âYou taste it, you taste it carefully. Weâll listen to the three versions of 15,17, and 20, and you decide which version has the strongest flavor.â
â17%!â
âThatâs right.â
Harrison Clark: âThis 4411 is a classic blues chord progression. We embed it as background sound to add depth.â
Carrie Thomas: âCan blues be used as background sound?â
âYes, it can. In the human brain, there is an area called hMT+ responsible for tracking moving visual objects. Its neural responses show the action and frequency of auditory signals. Blind people have a more developed hMT+ area and have a stronger acoustic response to moving objects.â
âWhat does that have to do with this chord progression?â
âResearch data shows that a certain type of enzyme in the hMT+ area that determines neuronal responses will vibrate violently and become much more active when hit by specific frequency sound waves. The 4411 background sound we embed here will resonate with the brighter accompaniment and your singing, just reaching that frequency.â
Carrie Thomas was amazed, âIs there such acoustic research? Iâve never heard of it! And how do you know that I can meet the conditions you mentioned when I sing?â
Harrison Clark: EmmmmmâŠ
âAnyway, if I say itâs like that, itâs definitely like that. Donât challenge me.â
This was the research result of a genius scientist at the Yellowstone Research Institute more than 900 years later, which was written in his music review.
Harrison Clark couldnât tell ghosts!
Next time it should be more esoteric and less theoretical.
Harrison Clark reminded himself in secret.
Four days later, with his personal involvement, he finally thoroughly explained the score he wrote to Carrie Thomas.
The way Carrie Thomas looked at him changed again.
She had once thought that Harrison Clark, a non-academic-born music producer, was creating by chance, purely relying on talent to crush others.
It was only after listening to his analysis that Carrie Thomas realized that an artistic understanding beyond her reach was hidden in Harrison Clarkâs brain.
He even combined science and art!
What a level of accomplishment!
After she personally tried to sing with the electronic arrangement and confirmed that every detail was perfect, she couldnât believe it, but it was true.
How could there be someone in this world who understood music and human neural responses so deeply!
âWhy donât you go into research and write papers?â
Harrison Clark shook his head, âActually, many things I said are just my guesses and cannot be proved. Just like when Planck proposed the theory of quantum physics, even now it still cannot be completely verified.â
Carrie Thomas expressed confusion, not understanding.
That evening, both returned to Oxfordshire.
At 9 oâclock the next morning, two singles were released on No. 1 Fly.
âDeep into the Nightâ and âA Dull Life,â both written and composed by Harrison Clark, were sung by well-known rock singer Jenny Hart and rising star Carrie Thomas, respectively.
Harrison Clark was speechless when he saw this situation after waking up.
Why? Wasnât this just shooting himself in the foot?
He immediately contacted No. 1 Fly music director Howard Bruno and learned that this was a temporary planning case decided by No. 1 Fly.
The two songs seemed to compete with each other, but Harrison Clark was the creator of both, so they could form an interaction. fr eewebn ovel.com
No. 1 Fly tied Carrie Thomas, Jenny Hart, and Harrison Clark together, creating a single IP.The result of this internal competition was to attract all of the listeners drawn to Carrie Thomas by âBoring,â the original fans of the veteran rock singer Jenny Hart, and half-industry insiders curious about how Harrison Clarkâs new work would turn out, all of them gathered together.
Eventually, the promotional plan created a sensation during the off-season as if top superstars were releasing songs in droves.
That night, the statistical data was released.
âA Dull Lifeâ boasted an astonishing record of 300,000 paid downloads on its day of release, almost double the popularity of âBoringâ when it first came out.
Harrison Clark still held a 30/70 split with this song, meaning that he had earned over 40,000 on the first day of its release.
âDeep in the Nightâ also had an impressive number of 260,000 paid downloads.
History was rewritten.
Previously, the highest record in Chinese music was held by a superstar who had released a single after five years of preparation, with 170,000 paid downloads in one day.
The marketâs enthusiasm was pushed to new heights through the internal competition with Harrison Clarkâs works.
This was a win-win situation resulting from positive competition, both in growing the cake and ultimately benefiting both sides.
Of course, the real winner was Harrison Clark.
In just one day, the name of the music producer Harrison Clark leaped out of the small circle of the professional field and entered the public eye.
The miracle of him composing six songs overnight also appeared in the promotional materials, leaving people in awe and whetting everyoneâs appetite. It also laid the groundwork for Leah Clark and Ward Owen, who were working on their new albums, making it a multiple benefit.
Luckily, Q.Music did not get Harrison Clarkâs portrait authorization, so the promotional material only featured his name and a random black silhouette.
QMusic officially claimed that it aimed to maintain a sense of mystery, but in fact, it saved Harrison Clark from becoming a âcelebrityâ by half.
If people discovered that the genius music maestro Harrison Clark was the culprit responsible for the chain-reaction car accident on the Beiduo Airport Expressway, it would be a huge deal.
It doesnât matter what his motives were, whether he saved or harmed people, whether he reached a fair compensation and understanding with everyone involved, or whether the final outcome was actually legal and compliant.
The news would certainly portray him as a powerful figure in the music industry, causing major accidents and using his influence to settle things, and his budding celebrity career would be cut off half-way through.
In short, the situation was still under Harrison Clarkâs control, and more and more people were eager to contact him to buy songs from him.
Harrison Clark didnât dare turn on his phone since he was swamped with calls.
His Twitter inbox was even more disastrous, with thousands of business collaboration emails coming in daily.
He couldnât keep up with it and lacked the ability to discern which emails were genuinely seeking collaboration and which were purely jokes.
It was time to start the company plan.
That day, under Ward Owenâs anticipation, Harrison Clark appeared at the recently integrated headquarters of Ward Owenâs company.
After taking over Eric Mitchellâs company, Ward Owen, who had won the game of life, effortlessly became one of the flag bearers of the entertainment industry in England and even the eastern part of the country.
Although he wasnât mentally prepared for it and still only thought about singing, the elite troops he borrowed from the Whale Group gave him confidence.
âMaster, what do you think of my company? Is the atmosphere alright? I believe in your abilities, so let me take a gamble. Iâll give you 30% of the shares at a valuation of 200 million. Once we have dividends, or if we go public and increase in value, you can cash out and pay me back. As long as we have your songs, we can definitely make money,â Ward Owen whispered as he showed Harrison Clark around the company.
Harrison Clark smiled, âYouâre right to believe in my abilities, and your judgment is accurate. But I canât accept your offer.â
âWhy not?â
âNo reason. Let this company develop on its own, and then come to me.â
âUh, alright.â
The two chatted briefly, and Harrison Clark finally understood why Ward Owen always ended up as a spendthrift in multiple timelines.
He wasnât exactly stupid and was quite bold.
But his problem lay in that boldness; because he saw the potential in Harrison Clark, he offered 30% of the shares in one go, showing a gamble spirit that was astonishing.
When his father was still in control, that boldness might have been an advantage, as there was always someone watching his back.
But when his father fell ill and no one could control him, letting him take the helm of a huge ship would easily steer him into a whirlpool.
Harrison Clarkâs firm refusal of Ward Owenâs proposal wasnât because he was foolish enough to reject free money.
His energy was limited, and he couldnât afford to bind himself with a company with immense resources and become a shareholder for short-term gains.
âLetâs not talk about this anymore. Iâll help you record songs. Leah Clarkâs new album is coming out next week, so you should release these three singles in sync. Weâll do another joint promotion! By then, âDeep in the Nightâ and âA Dull Lifeâ should still be at the top of the charts, and combined with your and Leah Clarkâs new songs, I want all eight top spots on the music charts to be mine! I want to dominate the charts!â
Harrison Clark declared with a grandiose air.
Ward Owen wondered, âCarrie Thomas is also working on âThe Fireâ at my subsidiary, so if we release it together, shouldnât that be the top nine?â
Harrison Clark nodded, âRight!â
âWhy not write one more song and make it a round ten?â
A womanâs voice sounded behind the two.
It was Avril Green.
âAlright, Iâll write one more song.â
âA Dull Lifeâ once belonged to Avril Green, but Harrison Clark had taken it away from her.
