Later, the two dominated the records of "UFO" and "Rolling Stone" respectively. As a music leader, he has composed more than 300 popular songs and produced more than 500 popular classics.

Chen Dali and Chen Xiunan are another gold medal creative duo in "UFO Records" besides the gold medal partners of Chen Zhiyuan and Chen Lerong. Unlike Chen Zhiyuan and Chen Lerong, who write music and lyrics separately, the creative combination of Chen Dali and Chen Xiunan is more like a combination of one lyricist and one point and five composers. Because he cannot read music, Chen Dali is constantly inspired by melodies. Most of the time, he has to rely on a partner like Chen Xiunan to write his melody motives onto the music. After polishing and integrating them, he completes a complete song. works. Therefore, in the composer column of many albums of "UFO Records", Chen Dali's name will always be followed by the name Chen Xiunan.

Evaluation

Based on today's From a visual perspective, or from an expert perspective, Chen Dali and Chen Xiunan’s compositions should have many shortcomings: they have no depth and are not very artistic; they focus on the popularization of the melody, and rarely take into account the personality characteristics of the singers ( For example, the fast song composed for Aaron Kwok, there is not much difference when Jimmy Lin sings it); the tune structure has formed a certain stylization, and there are many similarities (there are fewer similarities in the whole song, but similarities and deja vu between sentences are common) ).

However, it is truly a miracle to be able to achieve almost all hits and songs in the 1990s when Chinese pop music was very prosperous. Looking around the music world, this phenomenon is basically unique. Hong Kong lyricist Lin Xi single-handedly supports half of the Hong Kong music scene. Writing at least four lyrics every day is certainly a miracle, but after all, he is writing lyrics rather than composing music, so it is not comparable. Being able to create so many popular songs, no matter what, is worthy of learning and admiration.
