Jin Haixin's music has always been regarded as the spokesperson for modern white-collar women. Whether it is the determination of "So Proud" or the strength of "Sad Swing", she uses music to sing the new emotional opinions of women in the new era. , just like this first "Sheep", the music was composed by the famous musician Zhang Yadong and the lyrics were written by Wu Xiangfei. "Never be a submissive sheep", "You go your way and don't look back, it's so easy for me to live mine" - Hai Xin said that this is her attitude towards feelings. She no longer blindly tolerates compromises, no longer accepts things as they come, and faces love. , everyone is the master, and no one should abandon their original self.

Hai Xin felt that it was a very meaningful thing to choose to sing "Sheep", a song that represents women's new view of emotions, at the moment of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new. She said that the concept conveyed by the new album is unified, which is the attitude of women in this era towards life, work and relationships. At this moment of the New Year, Hai Xin also hopes to use this song "Sheep" to encourage female friends to be independent and strong. Being emotionally attached and tolerant will not bring long-term stability. When making a choice, truly understanding what you want and having the courage to make a choice is a positive approach.

Jin Haixin uses music to tell her story, her emotional growth, and her musical maturity. For Kim Hae-shim's fourth album "Independence Day", she did most of the composing work and took on all the production tasks, delivering a perfect answer to the company on time. This album, which has been frequently praised by industry insiders, will be launched nationwide on January 11. On this day, the company plans to use a new publicity and promotion method to recommend this highly praised album by Warner Records to the majority of fans.

⊙Kim Hae-shim’s talent in creating the album impressed the top visual team

Two years after the release of her last solo album "Kim Hae-shim", Kim Hae-shim joined the second studio of the international record company Warner Records After a year and a half of creation and recording, the solo album has officially been released to the fans.

Since Kim Hae-shin outstandingly participated in most of the production work for the last album, Warner Records gave this singer with many new ideas and new ideas a lot of space in this long-prepared album. Hai Xin herself acted as the producer of the new record, and demonstrated her creative talent for the first time, taking on 80 of the album's composition duties. Recently, after a long period of production work, the entire mastering recording and post-production work of this record was finally completed. All those involved in the record production, as well as people from all walks of life currently involved in the audiovisual work of the record company, all praised the innovative consciousness and production level of this record, and also spoke highly of Jin Haixin's ability to control music production. The first wave of hit songs, "Stars in the Sun", composed by Kim Hae-shim herself, has been broadcast on major radio stations across the country. The faint sadness and lazy temperament presented in the song impressed fans who have been waiting for a long time.

In view of the excellent music production of this record, Warner Records assembled a top team in the post-production work of the record, hoping to present the record more perfectly. The quirky Kim Hae-shin in the fans' minds also used this record to announce her mature changes in her music career and life attitude.

The record company invited Mr. Chen Sunhua, a popular stylist in Taiwan, to complete Jin Haixin’s styling work.

This year's Stefanie Sun's "perfect" look with red hair and rain boots for her new album was created by Chen Sunhua. He has also been the "royal stylist" for top-tier Hong Kong and Taiwan singers such as Jay Chou, Jolin Tsai, S.H.E, Sammi Cheng, Wang Leehom, Karen Mok, CoCo and so on. Although his schedule was very tight, after hearing the DEMO sent by the record company, he immediately flew to Beijing to meet Hai Xin. After an intense meeting and discussion, he flew Hai Xin to Hong Kong to finalize the look. During the four days in Hong Kong, the two of them shuttled non-stop to various designer stores. For this reason, Hai Xin gave Xiao Sun the nickname "Sun Kuai Legs". In terms of the overall styling direction, Xiao Sun hopes that the image of Hai Xin can match the atmosphere of the record, using black and white to present simplicity and strength.

A few days ago, Jin Haixin completed the graphic photography of the record and the filming of the MV "Stars in the Sun" in Shanghai. These two tasks were completed by Hong Kong gold medal photographer Zhang Wenhua. Zhang Wenhua once won the Taiwan Golden Melody Award for Best Music Video for directing the MV for Faye Wong's "Fleeting Time". From the "Flowing Time" MV, it can be seen that Zhang Wenhua's works use stylized techniques to present the artistic conception of lyrics and music, scene arrangements and camera movements, and play on the concept of the passage of time. To the extreme, in terms of clothing and styling, the singer's characteristics are emphasized. As the most famous photography master in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, Cheung Wen-wa is proud to have photographed the records and advertising photos of almost all the big-name stars in Hong Kong for more than 10 years. Among them, Anita Mui, Leslie Cheung, Twins, Sammi Cheng, Faye Wong, and Lai Lai regard him as their "Queen's team", the most exposed photo of Anita Mui in "Through the Mirror" was his work in 1997.

Zhang Wenhua, who originally only agreed to shoot the CD cover of Hai Xin’s album, after having several deep conversations with Hai Xin, he admired her creative talent very much and became a close friend. Zhang Wenhua, who rarely shoots MVs, was deeply moved by the song "Stars in the Sun" on the record. After listening to it 20 to 30 times every day, he finally agreed to shoot the MV for this song. At the same time, after listening to Hai Xin's record, Mainland China's top stylist Li Dongtian also happily agreed to be the makeup artist for this shoot, which made Hai Xin extremely happy.

Due to the rigor and seriousness of the production team, the entire filming work took twice as long as ordinary filming. Warner Records did not care about the cost and strived to present high-quality products. The entire team worked tirelessly and started working at 6 a.m. every day. On the second day of filming, there was rainy weather, and the outdoor shooting had to be cancelled. The entire group immediately returned to the studio for filming. Zhang Wenhua fully demonstrated his creative talent and temporarily designed a new plot in the studio, which impressed the staff.

Hai Xin said that this filming was the most stressful and workload-heavy she had ever done since she joined the industry. She stood in front of the camera for more than ten hours every day, and in the end she was so tired that she could not straighten up. It is not easy to appear calm and composed in front of the camera. Seeing all the staff working hard for their musical works, Hai Xin was very touched and did not complain at all because of the hard work.

★Jin Hae-shim: Weekly Diary of Album Production (1) - Hand of God

In Peanut Stew (Washington) Returning to Beijing Gray Chicken (Plane) When I woke up on the plane, accompanied by the smell of American breakfast, a melody flowed through my mind for the 32nd time, and I stretched comfortably. The stewardess of the huge American (U.S.) airline served sandwiches with a hearty smile. We will be back in Beijing in two hours, feeling a little excited. I have to go straight to the studio to record the latest inspiration into a demo immediately. This creation is very different, and I have a wonderful premonition...

There is an ecological park outside the window of my sister’s house. You can hear the chirping of various animals every day. Because it is completely different from the familiar sound environment, you will feel a sense of loneliness here. This loneliness is mixed with the bright light that penetrates into the room from the window every day. On the keyboard of the piano. One day when I was playing the keys, a melody poured out inadvertently. It lasted only three minutes and lasted for three minutes. It was like God was teaching me to play the piano step by step.

The melody was not only completed in one go, but also remained imprinted on the keyboard and in my head. For the first time, I could recall every note accurately without any recording or notation.

The next thing is the lyrics. Since this song is like a gift from God, I always wanted to fill in the lyrics myself. But I soon discovered that the most suitable language to express myself was music, not words. When humming this melody, that lonely sun ray always seems to appear, sometimes shining brightly in front of my eyes. When I recall it, it is difficult to tell whether it is real or just a fantasy. The name "Stars in the Sun" comes from this. There is no real reason, it is just a sense of light and a tone of the music. Friends have different feelings about this name. Some say it is too fairy tale, some say it is too sad, and some think it is incomprehensible. I don't simply agree with any opinion, nor do I think everything can be summed up in one word. I just want to find someone who can empathize with me and convey this emotion. Fortunately, it didn't take me too long to find this person beside me. Her name was the Great Fairy.

The Big Fairy is my partner in the high-tech socks factory in Jiao District, Shanghai (I will tell you more about this in the story of "Spider's Bee" later), my close comrade-in-arms and little bear brother. The innocent eyes look at the evil world...

★Jin Haixin: Weekly Diary of Album Production (2) - The Story of the Great Fairy Coming Out of the Mountain

The great fairy is as thin as a ghost and has dark circles under her eyes. The bottomless beauty, tinkering with various projects that are not directly related to literature and art, has been living a marginalized life. As fate would have it, we met unprepared in 1998 AD, and at the same time had an ominous premonition - Something Will Happen Between Us! This was fully confirmed later. In fact, after we met for more than a year, we had very little contact for a period of time, but after we hooked up again, we became out of control and became each other's indispensable best friends. It has been five years now.

We talk about everything and are always creating and sharing all kinds of crazy language and performance art. Every time we show it to others, they are always so envious that their hearts almost break, and at the same time they burst into tears with laughter. fly. Of course we also have a ladylike side, but as our wild hearts grow stronger year by year, we finally become stunners with both talent and beauty! (This sentence was written by me, I am the website editor)

In September 2004, I felt that it was time for us to do something serious together. At that time, the composition of my new album was basically completed, and the color of the entire melody was completely different from before. Since I used to sing songs written by others, I always passively used my voice to interpret myself in the eyes of others. But this time my own works account for most of them, reflecting my own inner world. When the melody part is recognized by everyone, In the end, I felt a little at a loss and didn't know what kind of words I should use to convey what I wanted to say in the music. At that time, the Great Fairy was living a life worse than death in a 4A advertising company in Shanghai. She was busy with various public relations activities day and night. Airplanes and racing cars were her main means of transportation. One day, in order to soothe her tired body and mind, I sent her a melody I had just written, humming it in a language I invented. Unexpectedly, she burst into tears in the office as soon as she heard it, and called me to say "What am I doing?!..." Music has such magical power. It not only comforted her excessively, but also triggered her evil thoughts of defecting. Not long after, she came to Beijing on a business trip. On the sofa at my house, I solemnly proposed to her: "I think you can write lyrics, give it a try." She seemed very unsure and did not dare to agree. I still forced the DEMO to her and said one word viciously: "Write it for me!" A few days later, her debut novel "A Season Further Than the Sky" was born. I can only describe it as indescribable. My feeling when I saw the lyrics was that the lyrics and music were like a pair of little brothers who had been separated for many years and finally found each other... After that, the Great Fairy completed "Stars in the Sun", "Jiang Lang", and "Lolita" in one go , "Ring on the Right Hand", but her unconventional creative method temporarily made her boss uncomfortable and raised many questions.

But I still insist, not because she is a good friend of mine, but because I really feel that there is an indescribable harmony between those words and my melody, which is filled with the understanding, tacit understanding and love we have cultivated over the years. Facts have proved that my persistence was right, and our combination has been highly recognized by many immortal industry seniors.

Finally, I want to say, don’t underestimate your friends, because they may be your nobles; also treat your nobles well, otherwise they will become your enemies. Just take care of yourself. I'm too sleepy, good night.

Director: Zhang Wenhua (Chris)

Starring: Me ( Hai Xin/Little Jinbao)

Styling: Dong Tian (Master Xiao Li) and assistant Xiao Liang

Photography: Li Qi, Carrie

Producer: Jennifer

I won’t introduce the rest of the people one by one...

The beginning was not as smooth as expected.

The shooting location on the first day was a small chicken farm (small airport) inside an aviation school. Since there was no dressing room, Master Xiao Li and I had to brave the cold wind of late autumn in Shanghai on the outdoor bench. Put on makeup. When Higashikata got emotional, he put a scarf around me and started cutting my hair. The scene was like a barber at a stall in the morning market. Teachers and students passing by looked at each other sideways, probably thinking: When did our aviation school start this business? !

Since I had just finished the recording work, it was difficult to find the feeling when I suddenly changed roles and started shooting. Although the director had been trying to help me get into the state, I still felt very frustrated by the end of the first day of shooting. .

When everyone pinned their hopes on the next day, God began to be unfavorable again, and it actually started to rain. The original outdoor shooting could not be filmed, so we had to move to the studio. The director temporarily changed the idea, but the effect was unexpectedly good. This instantly boosted my confidence and my performance started to get better. That night we went to eat hairy crabs to celebrate. When we were feasting, Xiaoliang calmly said: "What is this? It's too unpalatable." Everyone was stunned...

Evening I had a dream. The dream was a love tragedy. The hero broke up with the heroine in a unique way. He gave her a box of DV tapes and asked her to play it in the cinema. She stood alone in front of the big screen to watch it. Pictured: People wearing roller skates walking towards each other in a snowy square. When the panorama gradually zoomed out, snowflakes also drifted out from the screen, covering her back... I told the director about the dream, and after he listened carefully, he actually incorporated some of the fragments into his creativity, which made me During the subsequent filming, I was often in a state of disbelief.

This MV is the most immersive of all the MVs I have ever shot. The creative conception from auditory to visual is in perfect harmony. When more and more people expressed to me how much they loved this song, I was really happy, because this was the first time that my creation not only moved myself but also moved everyone.

Many friends may have heard this song through various channels, and you will also see it on TV soon. I hope you can share your thoughts with me on the blog!

★Jin Hai Xin: Weekly Diary of Album Production (4) - A Basket of Dumb and Agua

New Album In addition to the best friends of Big Fairy and myself, the team behind "Independence Day" also gathered many senior musicians to help out. It can be said that it is a gathering of talents, and the cooperation process is full of surprises. But what I want to share with you today is that these well-known musicians, arrangers, recording engineers, producers, etc., as well as several other friends of mine, participated in the Dumb and Dumber reality show during the birth of the album. , I hope everyone will happily welcome 2006!

The first is the famous producer Dameng Bao.

Every time he called me to confirm the meeting time, there was a lingering hint of sleepy talk in his voice. As soon as he said a word, he fell into a long coma-like silence, which almost hypnotized me. And every time he went to his studio, he would open the door to greet him with long, fluffy hair and a pajama suit. I think this can be considered a kind of sexy, but the fairy disagreed. She pouted and said that if a housewife hanging around in pajamas is called a yellow-faced woman, then the same dress also belongs to a self-destructive middle-aged man. . Since Dameng Bao has not yet reached the age of decay, the fairy is quite disdainful of his appearance. She said that she thought a sexy man's home clothes should at least be a washed T-shirt, or simply bare the upper body. As for the lower body, she was vague and said it was casual...

Secondly, let's talk about famous people. Musicians hunt for teachers. Teacher Lao has not played the piano for a long time because he is too famous. This time he made an exception and came out, which is really a great honor. Teacher Lao is also a spiritual person. One day he went to Damengbao's house to record guitar. He went upstairs and sat for a while, feeling that something was missing, but found that Qin was not with him. "I was drunk last night," he said, "and I forgot my piano in the car." When I went downstairs, I saw that the car was empty, and I didn't take the piano out at all. I had to drive back to pick it up again. Unfortunately, Damengbao's family lives very far away, and it takes two hours to go back and forth. After getting the piano, it was finally possible to record, but there was no movement while playing. Damengbao ran into the recording studio and saw that Teacher Lao had fallen asleep holding the piano...

Let’s talk about famous beauties. Margaret. The cutest thing about Margaret is her "dizzy" state. She once came home from playing cards with a friend only to find that she was still wearing someone else's long johns on her legs. She was a sentimental woman. She burst into tears when she heard the demo version of "Stars in the Sun" for the first time. She couldn't stop playing it, and she cut a disc and played it repeatedly in the car. Not long after, one day, she, who was loved by everyone, received two invitations, one to watch a dance and the other to eat salty pork knuckles. The temptation of food and art left her unable to choose, and finally decided to satisfy her physical needs first and then her spiritual needs. She drove all the way, smoking elegantly, accompanied by "Stars in the Sun", and happily attended the appointment. At some point, a row of large trucks appeared in front of her, blocking her view. She, who was extremely self-restrained, followed the trucks slowly and listened to her favorite song over and over again, feeling quite at ease. More than an hour later, she suddenly woke up, looked around at the unfamiliar and desolate night scene, and hurriedly got out of the car and asked an old man on the side of the road: "Uncle, where is this place?" The old man looked her up and down and said, "Daxing!" The dance was ruined. Someone was taken to a village in the city by the stars in the sun. No one expected this...

The famous sound engineer Cricket started coming to work for lunch before he even started recording. His look that day was unforgettable: a small ticket seller-style backpack slung around his waist, and a roll of toilet paper wrapped around the temples of his glasses. The roll of toilet paper was said to be used to protect the skin worn by the glasses frame. I sympathetically made a large number of toilet paper flowers of various shapes and gave them to him so that he could not forget about the beauty while treating him. But that small backpack really didn't match his burly figure, so I took advantage of him and threw it on the big fairy's body, and it really matched him much better. At this time, we were preparing to go home, and she blatantly walked out carrying the bag. She stopped in front of Cricket and Mengbao several times to talk, and acted exaggeratedly in an attempt to attract their attention. Unexpectedly, the two of us were so dumbfounded that until we collapsed laughing on the wall of the corridor, they were still confused and just laughed along with us. The moment he stepped into the car, he heard a scream behind him. Cricket rushed out and took back his small bag...
