> On June 25th, Mao Nan’s third album "Guide to Young Birds" was officially launched. As of today (July 8), Digital Specialist has sold 470,000 copies on the whole platform, ranking third in the 2021 Chinese Language List, and its sales volume is close to 480,000 copies of One Specialist (Ordinary Day). After four years of debut, the public’s support for singer Mao has not diminished, and it is expected to continue.
>Since the launch of the new work, Mao has not been able to promote it easily: he went to the media platform to sweep the floor for the premiere of the title song "Evening in the City" and started his own company with "So I didn’t wash my hair" (Whoa, whoa, whoa.) Interesting planning for employees to wash their hair … … In July alone, there are many cooperative activities, party recording and music festival performances waiting for him. butYuli studioThis exclusive conversation was inserted in front of his radio announcement on a publicity day. In order to shorten the time, the staff arranged the conversation place in a cafe 5 minutes away from the radio station.
>It’s not easy to sweep the floor in Sina
>Not long after we sat down, Mao came quietly. That kind of "quiet" feeling not only comes from the low-key accompanying of only two staff members, but also comes from a white fisherman’s hat, where the hair is not easy to reveal the expressionless face and the lightness in the eyes. That has nothing to do with good mood. Even though I have had several working encounters with him, after the staff flow-style introduction of work, he just said with a small volume that it is difficult to receive the sound with a recording pen: "Yes, I have." No more social enthusiasm.
>I’m not sure if Mao has more desire to communicate. Like his vegetarian face that day, our whole conversation was not packaged. Sometimes, it takes me to keep asking questions before he drops out a few sentences that can piece together a scene; Sometimes, his simple answer makes me feel that asking more questions is meaningless; Occasionally, we will be embarrassed for a few seconds. But I can also understand his "direct giving". This state is almost the same as that of him during the competition of "The Son of Tomorrow" four years ago.
>Below,Yuli studioTry to restore this latest interview with words. From Mao’s difficult phrases, there are some States about the changes and invariance since he became famous.
>Mao Buyi
The interview was only to tell me that I had released an album: I was in no hurry to explain my work.
>After the first title song "Evening in the City" was just launched,Yuli studioI received an album code from a friend who was screaming. Friends are positive Amway: listen and see, it can trigger resonance. From her enthusiasm, I can feel that this is not only work propaganda, but also personal. The emotion of new songs really touched her.
>In fact, this friend is not the only one who has feelings. After the release of three prequels, Evening in the City, Diary at Sea and No Shampoo, the daily worries of social animals drifting north … … There are always a few lyrics that reflect some people’s worries, and there is a wave of sharing songs in the circle of friends.
>However, unlike the audience’s excitement about the new song, Mao is not easy to "have no special feelings" about the release of the new album "Guide to Young Birds". The songwriting cycle of the whole album is about one year. He can’t remember the production process and completion time of other songs, except that Diary at Sea is the earliest work, or he doesn’t think it is necessary to recall it deliberately and accurately.
>The creator’s sense of accomplishment and desire to share after completing his painstaking work is not easy for Mao to have, but he admits: "After a long production cycle and several rounds of listening to songs, listening to them over and over again has wiped out that excitement. Now I will feel that I have completed one thing, from nothing to nothing, and finally have a result. "
>Interviewing with the media is an important task for many artists during the publicity period. Before this exclusive dialogue, Mao was not easy to complete the first round of publicity. Since his debut, he has been familiar with some media questioning routines: How did the inspiration come from? What’s the back story? "Anyway, is to ask you imagine, questions about creation. But in fact, writing a song is not the same as writing a manuscript. It may not be written in a few days, and it is difficult to start from a single event. Where do you think these melodies came from? Then who knows how it came from? Just feel good. "
>Some creators are willing to share their originality in instrumental arrangement and diction, but Mao is not easy. "So, I’m not in such a hurry to explain these things. Because music is a subjective feeling of hearing and emotion. What do you have to hear from here? It’s quite boring. "
>"What is the significance of the interview during the publicity period for you?"
>"Just let everyone know that this album is released."
>Mao Bu’s new album "Guide to Young Birds"
Admit that "sensitivity" is disappearing: I will have KPI, but I can’t force it.
>When reading the album copy, we can feel the 11 new works from the refinement of keywords to the arrangement order, and the behind-the-scenes team is deliberately stringing together a logic to form a complete concept. This is a necessary way to pack an album. Mao is not easy to say, as a company employee, he (team) Of course, I also have to bear some KPIs such as sales. But more than "Young Bird’s Guide" was not written for "releasing an album". After four years in the company, it was not easy for Mao to receive requests from his boss to urge songs and albums. "Because they also know that it is impossible to plan the creation of this matter, and what is urged will not be good."
>Long Danni, the boss, once said in an interview that Pu Shu told her: "Mao and I are both blessed children. But I can’t tell when’ that thing’ will be gone. " Mao couldn’t agree with Pu Shu’s observation: "There must be some characteristics in your individual that make you more acute and sensitive. But once many things are repeated or used, they will lose that sensitivity. "
> "If you can’t write a good work because of this, do you think you will compete with yourself like Pu Shu?"
>"I won’t twist the bar, and I won’t make my creation very painful. But if I am really not good enough, or there is no new expression in my work, I will not send songs. "
>Eleven new songs from Mao Bu’s new album "Guide to Young Birds"
>In many generalizations, people’s definition of Mao is as usual: ordinary people, singing for ordinary life. But Mao is not easy to know his own creative changes.
>His past work is his personal diary: it is not only a "wild way" creation that began in 2016, but also a little more private, because Mao is not easy to remember the emotions in the song. Even though "Eliminating Sorrow" and "People Like Me" are listened to by many people and seated accordingly, it is not easy for Mao to write about himself and comfort himself. In addition, at that time, he was really a "quasi-social animal" who only rented a small single room and lived an internship life, reasonably "delusional" about "If I become rich one day".
>It is not easy for Mao to sing his own song "If I become very rich one day" in "The Son of Tomorrow".
>After winning the title of "The Son of Tomorrow" in 2017, Mao is no longer an "ordinary person", but what is unfolding before his eyes is a life of qualitative change. Sometimes, he flies to several cities in a day, and it takes ten days and a half months to go on a business trip. He often wakes up and doesn’t know where he is. "Press conference? Interview? Activities? " Mao is not easy to fall into memories. "I really can’t remember what I did in the end, and I feel that I have not grown up since that process, and I have no center of gravity and don’t adapt."
>About two years ago,Yuli studioIt was not easy for him to make an interview with Mao. At that time, he confided that there was some pressure at first, which stemmed from the high expectations of the outside world. One of the most frequently asked questions at that time: Would he be worried that the pearl jade in "Sorrow" was ahead, and the later creation would be difficult to surpass?
>Regardless of whether it transcends "Eliminating Sorrow" or not, during that "very busy" period, Mao did not have many opportunities to calm down and write songs. Although there will be stories on the way to work and business, Mao is not easy to explain, and it can only be inspiration, not a song. "I usually create from my own life. This life is not necessarily a life, but it is definitely outside of a job, the whole time. The place where work goes every day is very fragmented, and you can’t produce continuous emotions and feelings. "
>Hair at work is not easy.
>Two years ago, Mao Bu-yi also released two albums, Ordinary Day and Xiao Wang, but some of the songs were his works before he became famous, and some of them were slightly out of place with his current state.
>It is not easy for Mao to ask the company to adjust the pace of work when he can clearly feel that his desire to express himself is declining. He affirmed the "care" of his boss Long Danni — — Try to give him creative space.
>At the same time, Mao is not easy to think about a new creative angle: "When my life really changes, my works will definitely be different. For example, I wrote "Eliminating Sorrow" and was recognized before, but if I write a very similar work today, everyone will not feel good, but they will think it is insincere. "
>Besides,He also admits that there will be a change in tone when writing songs nowadays: "Before (Before the game) is to write casually, and the outside world has a chance to hear it. Now people will associate your works with your people, so I don’t amplify my emotions as before, and now my perspective will be more’ neutral’. "
>A year and a half after "Xiao Wang", it was not easy for Mao to launch "Young Bird’s Guide". The copy wrote: Young birds refer to the immature and ignorant state when people begin to enter a new stage of life and a new environment. It is not easy for Mao to feel that this new song is completely included for the first time (That is, all his creations after becoming a professional singer are included.) album is a new departure in a sense.
>After listening to it all, he was more open. On the subject matter, he talked about the inclusiveness of individuals and personalities through "Pure"; Writing "The Man in the Gap" focuses on the people who are afraid of society. As a realistic creator, these issues are not separated from himself. For example, he believes that he is still a member of the social fear group.
>Mao is not easy to show social fear.
>However, even though Mao can still write the lyrics of "When a person gets off work, the traffic and the sea of people merge into a gorgeous scene", "Leave the port and drift away", and "When he is lazy and in a bad mood, he doesn’t even wash his hair", he is also soberly aware that he is now "taken care of" in his work and life, and he is not qualified to feel sorry for himself as a social animal.
>"For example, songs like" So I didn’t wash my hair "are a common state of life, and you have some emotions in this state. I think people have to give some meaning to this emotion. As for you, how do I write the status of office workers? There is an office building downstairs in my home, and many people go to work every day. The state of struggle in some societies is common. But when I wrote this song, I actually didn’t force myself to be a group substitute. I didn’t write that I worked in a cubicle, and my boss treated me badly, so my performance was under great pressure. These are out of my experience. Once you write for the sake of writing this thing, everyone will feel very fake. "
>Mao Bu’s lyrics to "So I didn’t wash my hair"
"change" and "unchanged" after four years in the business: when an artist is not "off work"
>Mao Bu once described his teenage state: "I am a person who has been wandering outside the crowd, and I really can’t blend in with others quickly … … But I am not a maverick. I know that after a long time, I will always blend in. Maybe this process will be a little longer than others. "
>It was not easy for the public to know Mao at the beginning. He boarded the stage of "Tomorrow’s Son" and relied on stuffy white wine to be courageous; Participate in variety shows, if not by Cue, he always stands silently. After four years in the business, it is not easy for Mao to feel that his personality has not changed, but he has just begun to adapt to some things more. "Tension often comes from the unknown. You can’t say that I am more open now, but after running for four years, you have met some people many times, and that familiarity is natural. "
>He believes that the state of the show is better than before, but he still "doesn’t like to output strongly."
>It’s not that he hasn’t done anything to break the comfort zone, such as challenging the love bean group dance in Creation Camp 2020, or standing alone to talk about a long talk show. Mao is not easy to say that he does not enjoy challenging new things, but he does not reject them. "Like dancing, the program I went to was singing and dancing in the draft, and everyone jumped. It’s not appropriate for you not to jump. But if another variety show makes me jump again, there is no need. It is in a reasonable situation that I am willing to cooperate with everyone. "
>"Creation Camp 2020", Mao is not easy to dance.
>Yuli studioAsk him, "How would you describe the work of an artist?"
>Mao is not easy to answer: "I think it’s just singing, dancing or acting. If you go to variety shows, it will bring joy to everyone."
>"Will you feel that there is no essential difference with other jobs?"
>"There is still a difference. Artists can’t’ get off work’."
>Many people know that "Mao is not easy" is a stage name, and "Wang Weijia" is his real name. Some time ago, he told Cai Kangyong that he decided to use his stage name to travel in rivers and lakes because he was a little selfish: when he was an artist and singer, he could be that "Mao is not easy", while the identity of Wang Wei’s family was reserved for his private self, "like a feeling of double life." But after four years, he found that everything was inseparable. All the time, he is just not easy.
>Of course, there are also some comfortable moments that belong to him. For example, in the WeChat address book with more than 2,000 contacts, contact more than a dozen close friends; When not going out to work, I collapsed on the sofa with Li Xueqin and others and ordered takeout, chatting one build what did not build.
>Up to now, Mao, who is afraid of loneliness and is not suitable for living alone, still needs intimate friendship, Li Xueqin, Li Dan, Guo Qilin … … They are all friends that Mao is not easy to make after entering the industry. But he also began to try to get used to being alone. At home, it is not easy for Mao to turn on the TV early in the morning to "play some sound". "I’m watching the spy war drama Cliff recently, which was played by Zhang Jiayi and Song Jia. It’s very good."
>The spy war drama Cliff, Zhang Jiayi, Song Jia.
>Before winning the championship in "Children of Tomorrow", someone asked Mao not easy: "After the game, you may really become rich as you sang in your song. What do you want to do most when you have money? " He answered frankly: "Money is … … Flowers. " Today’s Mao is not easy to be richer, but the truth is that he doesn’t spend much money.
>"First of all, I don’t have any hobbies that cost a lot of money, such as cars and watches. What kind of good clothes do you mean? I bought it, too. One year, I concentrated on buying a lot of clothes. But after I bought them this year, I will wear them every year, and I won’t buy many new things. Basically all the money goes to wealth management products. "
>Hair is not easy to express
Future? I hope to be a singer all the time.
>It’s hard for Mao to say that after a certain period, there is nothing particularly bothering him at this stage. He also admitted that he was not an enterprising person.
>"Sometimes I feel that I have too much work and I am very tired. Although I know that this will help my career and have income, I feel that I don’t have so much money to spend. "
>"If you do this, some people will think that you don’t know when you are blessed, and others still want so many jobs."
>"Yes, so I don’t emphasize it. I am not saying that I don’t want to pay or earn, but I am not a person who can continue to work. If I finish my work with a bad state, I don’t respect others and the effect will not be good. "
>Hair at work is not easy.
>In the past, Mao was not easy to plan. "Take it one step at a time." Artists and singers, I think I can be a singer, but if I can’t be a singer, I will forget it. Singing as an interest is enough to make me happy. "
>But now, he still hopes to be a singer all the time, and occasionally talks to his peers like Li Xueqin about the future. "Maybe in a few years, whether in work or in life, should we move on to the next stage? Maybe buy a house, and put out some new works. Let’s talk about it. "
>Hair at work is not easy.
>The 26-year-old Mao is not easy to accept the constant changes brought by life, and he is also debugging his state at a slightly slower speed. In the daily life of rushing to announce one by one in a commercial vehicle, he looked through the window and liked the evening sky. This is a small fortunate thing that has made him feel enjoyable for some time.
>One day, Mao shared six photos of different cities in the evening on Weibo. There is no photo-taking skill, but it also shows the flavor of life.
>At the end of the chat,Yuli studioCasually asked: "In fact, how many evening photos have you recorded in your mobile phone?"
>Mao thought hard: "It’s basically that much."
>"What are the most photos stored in your mobile phone album?"
> "Still, the health code for going to work everywhere."
