Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 397 At the snap of a finger—Introduction

Backstage, the Aolong duo also breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of them had been exposed to pure musical instrument playing before, but this was the first time they encountered a major crossover between ancient and modern summers with guitar as the main body.

When he was in Europe, Olaf was always giving him advice and adjusting the sound when he got the music score. Due to Olaf's shortcomings in Chinese music, the new version after Liu Ziyang joined, the effect can be said to have exceeded the expectations of the creator Bian Lang.

After all, as the ancients said, literature does not come first.

When it comes to music creation, everyone has their own aesthetics. The original version is not necessarily the best and cannot be surpassed.

The two smiled at each other and then high-fived each other, feeling happy for the Aolong group's first successful collaboration.

After the rehearsal of the Rolling Stones, Olaf began to separate his accompaniment track for Wang Zhe.

The original tuner at Xiaopo Station had two dark circles under his eyes after watching all the two people's operations, and he had to sigh: "These two guys are really awesome!"

At this time, at Zhenze Airport, a large number of Up owners have begun to arrive and rush to the film and television base to prepare for the recording of this New Year's Eve party.

When the assistant heard this, he took the tissue and wiped his tears and said: "It's not because of this, I just think of my ex-boyfriend from my hometown..."

"Actually, the life of a rock musician before breaking out of the rock music industry is pretty average. Even if they have a stable job, because they have to support their music dream, sometimes their lives are even worse than those on subsistence allowances!"

This time, the two men did not refute, but through the words of the little witch, they gained an additional layer of profound understanding of the fundamental decline of Chinese rock music.

In addition, the two UP owners are not clear about this. Now when they heard what the little witch said, they were still a little confused: "Then they can start a live broadcast, maybe it will become popular? Isn't the one named Liang Zi..."

Olaf didn't spend much time helping Wang Zhe separate the accompaniment track. When they rehearsed again with the new accompaniment, Wang Zhe's assistant was standing not far from Bian Lang and listening.

"Then you have to have someone like Bian Dashen who can attract traffic. Why don't you look at how many fans he had before?" Perhaps because she felt that using Liang Zi as an example was not very convincing, the little witch pointed directly at herself and said: " I had this account for almost two years, and the frequency of picking up Hiroko was only once or twice a month. If I hadn't gotten along with Master Bian, how would Guitar have the chance to be with you..."

Together with the two UP owners who had exchanged codes on the plane, the three of them took a taxi to a hotel near the film and television base. Along the way, the two UP masters from other fields asked about Bian Lang's gossip.

I really can’t save any money in a month…

……

A bitter love song, of course it won’t have much resonance for Zhou Ketong, who is a solo artist.

Zhou Ketong just stood next to her, listening to the song and the assistant telling her stories. In the end, even she started crying...

At that time, she was working as a temporary musician in various bands, and she only earned three to five hundred yuan per performance. If she got a job as an accompanist, she might get more. This may sound like a monthly income of over 10,000 yuan, but everyone says that living in Kyoto is not easy. After rent and living expenses, there are also the costs of updating various equipment.

If you are a guitarist and you find a guitar that you like, you may have to borrow money from various brothers and friends.

Apart from not being able to broadcast live, she really has no regrets this time.

This sentence of "Little Witch" summarizes the living conditions of musicians outside the top of the rock circle. Just talking about the Rolling Stones, Hua Yan, who was drifting in Beijing at that time, is the most typical example.

In order to divert this unpleasant topic, one of them asked about Chen Shuting. When the little witch told about her and Chen Shuting's experience of trying to stop the waves, the other wise man smiled and said: "Witch, I You said you didn't understand it at the time. Wouldn't it be better to just report Bianlang for detours..."

Seeing the person she just met next to her shed tears, she thought the assistant was so excited that Wang Zhe had the opportunity to perform on the big stage today, so she took out a tissue and handed it to him, and comforted him: "You Don’t cry, Teacher Zhe is so strong, he will surely arouse the music fans again this time!”

Standing next to Zhou Ketong, whom she had just met not long ago, the assistant began to shed tears as she listened.

When they heard that the little witch took a taxi and met the road-crazy driver Bian Lang, both of them laughed out loud: "Huh hahaha, Bian Lang is really down-to-earth. He actually used to drive a part-time online car-hailing service. Wrong way!"

Hearing this, the little witch was immediately petrified: "Yes, if I had directly reported Bian Lang for detours at that time, it is hard to say that Bian Lang would have been so angry that he would have contacted me directly!"

In previous years, it would have been impossible for Little Witch to get the opportunity to watch the concert live, but this year, thanks to the Rolling Stones, not only was she able to be there, but she also got a pretty good seat.

Chen Shuting looked at it and thought something had happened, so she walked over and asked. But Zhou Ketong shook his head and said, "Sister Chen, it's nothing, I just cried while listening to the song!"

"As long as it's okay. When it's over, you can go find Bian Lang and the others, and take the band to the stylist backstage to start preparing makeup..."

"Yeah, I'll go over right away..."

This time Chen Shuting is back, Dong Youbian's team doesn't need help with the makeup.

After all, the Rolling Stones are a bunch of big guys who play rock and roll, and Dong Youbian's team doesn't get along very well.

Just when Zhou Ketong led the Rolling Stones and others to the dressing room, Bian Lang saw the little girl's eyes were red and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Ke Tong, is someone bullying you? It's okay, just take care of it." Say, let's go and take care of him for you!"

Although the little girl is usually a little awkward in the company, she works diligently and has a good relationship with everyone, especially the Rolling Stones, who treat her as their little sister.

"It's okay, I just felt a little emotional after listening to that song!"

After thinking about the lyrics of the song just now, Huang Kai was the first to slap his chest and said: "Ke Tong, tell me who is that little bastard? Such a good girl is willing to abandon her. I will not interrupt the dog." leg!"

Listening to these words, Zhou Ketong felt very moved by the trend of belonging, but this is really not her own business: "Brother Kai, thank you for caring about me so much, but it is really not my own business." "It's really not my own business." What's your own business?" Bian Lang confirmed again.

"Brother Lang, it's really not true. I'm still single now. There are so many things going on in the company now, and I don't have time to fall in love..."

"Don't worry, Ke Tong, wait until the next time Liang Zi broadcasts your live broadcast and your brother Lang is secretly doing business, so that you can also appear on the scene and find you a boyfriend in the live broadcast room!" Dayong's words directly called Zhou Ketong introverted.

Others didn't know about Zhou Ketong's apology to Chen Shuting, but Bian Lang knew that she was afraid that Zhou Ketong was still blaming himself because of that incident, and just made a random excuse.

So after the makeup was done, Bian Lang called her aside and started to enlighten her: "Ke Tong, you have only been in this industry for a few months. Even you, Sister Chen, have never encountered such a thing. Don't be too cautious." Take it from your heart. Let me tell you, next time you encounter this kind of situation, find a man to accompany you and guard the switch together. Just don't let anyone pull the switch!"

"Ah? What are you doing guarding the switch?"

"Prevent the organizer from pulling the plug!"

Bian Lang had experienced this kind of thing in his previous life. Once he attended a music festival, and there was a band on the stage who was very excited about the performance. Seeing that the audience was also very enthusiastic, the guitarist said: "We don't love it." In this society, we only love money!”

Then the organizer, who was supervised by Uncle JC, pulled the switch.

Later, the guitarist was blacklisted, and until Bianlang was reborn, when the band participated in large-scale performances, the guitarist was not allowed to play...

After hearing this explanation, Zhou Ketong nodded and took note, and then explained to Bian Lang again: "Brother Lang, thank you for caring about me so much, but it was really not because of this. I told you not to tell others!"

Bian Lang doesn't like gossip, so when he heard Zhou Ketong's serious words, he stopped asking further: "Okay, just be fine..."

But Zhou Ketong didn't want to continue like this. He grabbed Bian Lang and said quickly: "I just heard Teacher Wang Zhe's assistant talk about her and her ex-boyfriend. They grew up together as childhood sweethearts in a small town. Later she I want to come out and try my luck, and then..."

After Bian Lang listened patiently, the melody of a song sounded in his heart, and that was "Big Koi".

……

At four o'clock in the afternoon, there were only a few people in the auditorium during the rehearsal, but now it is filled with nearly a thousand UP hosts. Looking at the UP hosts wearing small shabby station headdresses, some of them are holding Rolling Stones in their hands. Bian Lang, who was sitting in the guest seat, felt a little more sense of belonging to the world.

Rolling Stone's program "Within a Finger" was the first to be played, ranking fourth in the entire evening.

The first three programs were all related to animation, a small station that started in the second dimension. This wave of memories made the lively atmosphere on the scene get higher and higher.

After the three shows were over and Bian Lang and the others were preparing for the show, the host began to heighten the atmosphere on the small stage on the other side: "Everyone knows that there are many experts in our Xiaopo Station, and our Xiaopo Station He is particularly good at organizing tasks. The master below is here with his arsenal, so let us welcome Teacher Lili with a round of applause!"

At this time, Qianli was already standing in the center of a device that looked like the Iron Throne from the original Earth in "Game of Thrones", except that the iron parts on the Iron Throne had been replaced by countless electric guitars.

And here, on the ground around the guitar throne, there are dozens of guitars of different colors and completely different appearances, guarding him among them.

Looking at Di Li in leather clothes and sunglasses, standing in the center of the throne with a serious expression on his face, Bian Lang felt a little envious, but it was Dayong who said these words of envy: "Di Li really pretended to be big this time! Lang, wait a minute. You can finish it by yourself next year, and prepare one for me the year after that!”

Faced with Dayong's words, Bian Lang waved his hands and said with a smile: "I'll forget it. It depends on the situation. If this show is popular, our Rolling Stones will contract this part from now on, and everyone will take turns!"

As soon as Bian Lang finished speaking, six light beams on the left and right above the Guitar Throne were lit up. They met where Li Li was standing, illuminating his entire body for an instant and also showing the Guitar Throne on the stage to the eyes of the audience. .

Under the background of dry ice, a black leather jacket looks like it has traveled through time and space.

But no one would have thought that many of the works in this show did come from the original earth through time and space. It’s just that the manipulator behind all this is not Li Li, but Bian Lang!

The 12 light beams that intersect together look like the V-shaped double-headed electric guitar of Michael Angelo when viewed from the front.

In front of the car, Ovation's double-headed Hawaiian guitar is placed flat in front of him on a stand.

This scene, not to mention the live audience, even the singers who were in front of the rehearsal last night, couldn't pass it. The exclamations directly exceeded any time since the opening!

The eyes of the little witch near the stage shine with greedy light. She is considered a relatively experienced rock fan. She may not be familiar with inconspicuous equipment such as effectors. The most iconic electric guitar in a rock band is one that she knows very well. .

But looking at the guitar throne now, even she was confused. She had no time to distinguish the guitar models. Now she only dreamed of going up to the throne to sit down and take a picture.

Affected by this extremely impactful picture, the audience instinctively thought that the next performance would be a cool and explosive high-distortion electric guitar solo, but when they put their hands on the double-headed Hawaiian guitar, they What I heard was an ethereal overtone that was no different from the guqin!

The contrast between the ancient Chinese rhyme and the Guitar Throne between Ti Li's movements made everyone at the scene stare with their mouths wide open. Their expressions were just like when Ti Li watched Bian Lang for the first time in Europe. It plays exactly the same.

For Li Li, what surprised him was not Bian Lang's playing level, but Bian Lang's idea.

Using a Hawaiian guitar to restore the sound of the guqin is basically not a problem for professional guitarists as long as they use the right equipment and study hard.

The problem is that no one has put this idea into practice before. Bian Lang not only put it into practice, but also perfectly integrated this Western musical instrument performance with Chinese guqin music from both visual and auditory levels.

Just like the hard work at that time, the audience who saw this scene for the first time only had two words in their minds: "Awesome!"

Seeing the effect, all the senior executives of Xiaopo Station couldn't help but sigh: "Just this scene, it's much better than any other girl group!"

This program not only shows everyone the superb skills of guitarists, but also takes into account the dissemination and promotion of Chinese culture. They feel that even if such a program is not popular when it is first broadcast, it may be popular once it breaks out and becomes popular. A classic that will be remembered for a lifetime and read often!
