Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 661 Exposed

Although there is no sound, light and electricity from the original Berlin version, no hammering of the wall and no fancy lights and shadows...

But the super solo textbooks of the three Rolling Stones guitarists still stunned the fans in the audience!
I saw Bian Lang using a white single-coil Fender big head guitar, playing a weak overtone that quickly passed through the 4th string and the 9th fret, followed by a bent string staccato on the th fret.

Then there is a double-note bend, and the Fender big-head fuzz sound blooms like a flash in the pan, followed by a 10th-fret ghost sound, which gives people the feeling of taking off from the spot and soaring into the sky, or like the guitar is sobbing, like electricity and fantasy.

The Fender sales representative in the audience couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Can't Mr. Bian just change one?" This guitar has been out of stock since the guest performance in Berlin last year.

The situation in China is still slightly better, but pre-sale orders in Europe are scheduled for at least one year later!

As for Dili, he switched back and forth between the 6th and 15th frets and strummed the strings, turning on the sound of the Big Muff pedal to help Bian Lang fill in the rhythm.

Looking at Strauss again, her cool blonde hair covered half of her face, one hand was on the 17th fret, and the other hand was on the switch of the pickup, waiting for Bian Lang to give her the signal to join in.

As the pitch of Bian Langdianji kept going up and climbing upwards!
The fans in the audience were already in a state of trance and madness. Although more than half of them had watched that video more than once, when the real performance was right before their eyes, they couldn't help but be drawn into it by the wonderful guitar sound.

Just like the music critics on the original Earth always half-jokingly mentioned when commenting on this last guitar solo: "Life needs a shot of hallucinogens!"

And this sentence is destined to appear in the mouths of more people on Shuilan Star who have heard this song.

"This is psychedelic, some say it's avant-garde?" Even veterans like the commander couldn't make up their minds for a moment about the subdivisions of this style.

"Psychedelic, it must be psychedelic. The term progressive rock will change substantially over time. Bian Lang's playing of these things is not new to foreigners, but I feel that there are really few foreigners who can play as clearly as he does!"

There is nothing wrong with what Kong Liang said. This was the second time that the people from Hatter saw the live performance, and they had also watched the video countless times. Until now, they still couldn't figure out where Bian Lang got the ability to be so proficient in creating works by changing his style.

When the solo reached the 7-minute mark in the song, the three guitarists on the stage, Bian, Di and Shi, pressed the 17th fret with their left hands at the same time. Strauss also instantly turned on the pickup switch, pushed the string back to 4/, then lightly tapped the string, followed by another push and a hook sound.

A tearing, lingering, and circuitous feeling entangled and knotted in everyone's hearts.

Bob has listened to this solo for countless times, but he still feels that his cover is lacking in flavor. As for what is missing, he probably figured it out today, it should be that he lacks a side wave!
Then the pitch and volume of the guitars in the hands of the three people began to gradually weaken, and Di Li and Strauss walked to the front on both sides of the stage while playing.

When they reached the edge closest to the fans, the two let go of the guitars and began waving their hands to signal the fans to interact.

As for Bian Lang, he was still playing, and the sound waves were still drifting away, but it felt like it was getting farther and farther away from everyone...

The last one is like the sound of extreme longing and loneliness. Bian Lang pulled up the crank seemingly casually, trembling and then suddenly lifted it up. Just like the performance in Berlin, when Bian Lang's right hand was suspended in the air, the pick on his fingertips flew to the audience in an arc as he flicked the pick with his two fingers.

The sound of the exploding electric guitar dissipated in the wind, leaving only the delay sound produced by the phase effector spinning in the wind.

And this pick hit Zhu Wei, who was standing dumbfounded in the audience...

As the sound of the guitar faded away, the relative silence that lasted for a whole song was finally broken in an instant.

Seeing the three great guitarists hugging each other on the stage, some fans in the audience had tears in their eyes.

No matter how unprecedented it was, the performance of this song live was, in their memory, the most shocking performance among all the non-mainstream rock music in China in the past 20 years, at least.

So much so that when Bian Lang began to give his closing remarks, many people forgot to shout “Encore!”

"Thank you all for coming here to play with us for three days. I hope I can see you on the stage at the next Rolling Stone Music Festival! By the way, remember to pay attention to "Summer of the Band". This summer, our Rolling Stone Music Festival will bring more bands and other diverse rock music to meet you on the screen! I will also bring the Hedgehog Band to participate..."

Those bands before may talk and attract popularity, but how can they compare to the leader like Bian Lang who said, "Follow me!"

If the mobile network at the scene hadn't been intermittent, there would definitely be fans who would have taken out their phones to directly follow the official account.

Listening to the thunderous response and watching the whole audience raising their hands in metal salutes, these singers from the pop circle all felt the pressure brought to them by this sound field.

It goes without saying that the two people present here, Guo Sichu and Xie Xinyan, are capable of such appeal.

But both of them were tied up by Bian Lang to become music fans, one is permanent and the other is flying!
Moreover, they know very well that the 50,000 rock fans present here will most likely sign up for membership, buy TVs, upgrade their home audio-visual equipment, and even crazily recommend it to those around them who know nothing about rock.

In the past, even if they put headphones in other people's ears and begged them to listen, they would just shake their heads and refuse, saying, "Rock music is too niche, and we country bumpkins can't appreciate it!"

But it’s different now. If you recommend a music variety show to others and say that Guo Sichu and Xie Xinyan are big music fans, many people will go and watch it out of curiosity.

Then, these people who previously had no access to rock music may be moved by it!

Guo Sichu, who seemed to have been holding his breath, let out a long sigh, and then asked Tao Xiaoyu beside him: "How is it? Compared with Bian Lang's performance in Berlin?"

Elsewhere, Liang Kuan asked Evelyn the same question, and the answer he got was almost the same: "Compared to the live performance in Berlin, the visual effect is not as good as it could be. But as for the music itself, it feels like the coordination this time is more sophisticated!"

"I really want to go and see the scene in Berlin!" Guo Sichu and Liang Kuan said this at the same time.

Tao Xiaoyu's answer was: "It's probably difficult!"

Evelyn's answer was: "I think I can definitely fulfill your wish."

In her opinion, it would be a shame not to replicate this god-level live performance. And as the Rolling Stones became more and more famous, it was only a matter of time before they toured China, Europe, and the world.

After this matter is over today, she will have a serious discussion with Chen Shuting.

The veterans in the rock circle were all still immersed in the emotion of being brainwashed by the live performance of "Comfortably Numb". The Rolling Stones also thought it might be okay before the performance, after all, they had watched the rehearsal, watched the video, and even asked Di Li and Bian Lang for advice on cover songs. But when they really stood in this live performance and listened to the real performance, the effect was completely different.

If this castrated version of "Comfortably Numb" shocked them so much, what kind of grand event must the premiere in Berlin be like?
At this time, the fans who were late to the party saw Bian Lang start to pick up his guitar and shouted "Encore!"

"Encore!" There will definitely be an encore, but Bian Lang and the others have to do the full show.

Just when they were pretending to discuss something but were actually taking a break to drink water.

"Comfortably Numb" directly became a hot search!

The initiator of this hot search was not the fans who uploaded the touching videos, but An Feng!

She just took a selfie facing the stage, looking like an ordinary passerby, and it was hard to tell whether the background was a sound system or some other equipment.

The caption reads: "Watching the Rolling Stones' "Comfortably Numb" live for the second time, I was still shocked and moved! I'm going to be a guest on "Summer of the Band"!"

Even her die-hard fans are powerless to complain about her selfie quality. But the amount of information in the post makes many people jealous.

The first people to envy her were the Rolling Stones fans who were not present:

"Mmm, the overworked guy didn't even have a chance to be at the scene. The goddess has already gone abroad to chase after her idol. Is there a contempt chain for rock fans?"

"What's this? If I had known that the Rolling Stones were going to sing this, I would have been a special forces soldier! But Goddess An has already completed the second watch achievement?"

"Who said goddesses don't chase stars? It's just that they haven't met anyone worthy of it before! But, can you please stop provoking us?"

As for An Feng's fans, after seeing this kind of speech that was at risk of getting out of control, they immediately presented the facts and reasoned with him:
"The first time in Berlin, my An Feng went to Berlin to learn from Bian Lang in order to cooperate with the performance of Shanghai Satellite TV's New Year's Eve Gala! And this time, he went to the scene with the road show team of "Sword and Sword Record" to support Bian Lang! It's not what you call chasing stars at all!"

"It's all for work. How dare you rock music fans think of anything?"

"That's right. Don't you see how much difference there is between Bian Lang and our Fairy Sister? Is it worth it?"

If they were fans of those traffic stars, rock fans would have started to criticize them long ago.

But An Feng is the national goddess after all. Rock is just a musical aesthetic. In terms of visual aesthetics, many rock fans and An Feng’s fans should belong to the same camp.

Besides, An Feng was giving Bian Lang a lot of points, so they just took it as a joke and started arguing with these An Feng fans:

"Hey, she's not the only one who watched it twice, so why did she post it and didn't she mention anything about the movie promotion?"

"Yeah, Tao Xiaoyu definitely watched it twice, and both times were for work, so why didn't she post it?"

"Xiao Yu is still a member of the Rolling Stones. She didn't make any move, but Goddess An was the first to post. It's hard for me not to guess why An Feng did this. Besides, the Rolling Stones should still be singing the encore song now, right?"

"Let's be honest. This kind of difference in worth is nothing to us at Lang Shen! Even if An Feng starred in an Oscar-winning film, he would only get paid once! I, Lang Shen, can earn royalties from writing a song for the rest of my life!"

"Let me tell you something little-known: CAA has started to be a yin-yang wave god. Those who are familiar with the North American entertainment industry should know what this means, right?"

This information is really obscure, so not many people know about it. Moreover, when CAA came to attack An Feng, this was not the strategy they used. It was done secretly, and the team did not tell anyone about it. Therefore, An Feng's fans have no idea that these two things and two people are linked together.

However, the person who said this was not a well-known entertainment reporter in the circle, so it must have been arranged by Liang Kuan to build momentum for Bian Lang.

However, since it is on such a hot search, of course someone will explain these things to everyone.

The one who educated the Chinese music fans about this matter this time was Li Jing, who was on the other side of the ocean accompanying Watts and other updates.

Ever since the sales of "V" broke AC's sales records in the United States time and time again, although Li Jing, the assistant, has not been promoted, she has received salary increases two or three times. Moreover, other people in the company will not treat her as just an intern assistant just because they have not seen that piece of paper.

Watts is now refreshing YouTube over and over again, following the updates of the guys who are responsible for moving videos, while Li Jing has already typed out what he knows about CAA and replied in the topic's super topic.

Her description, which is only a few words longer than the encyclopedia, actually just adds the names of some contracted artists under CAA.

But each of these names is admired by domestic entertainment stars!
Li Jing also sent back the screenshot of what CAA said about Bian Lang, and explained how this "rogue" company CAA usually uses to win over artists outside the United States.

After hearing this, An Feng's fans were stunned:
"Didn't we agree that there is still several times the difference in value? Why do I feel like I'm about to be caught up?"

"It's not that I'm being overtaken, it's that I feel like I'm being surpassed. I'll translate the picture my friend posted online for you. It means that Bian Lang's songs are not worthy of the Grammy Awards, so there's a high probability that Bian Lang's songs will be nominated for the Grammy Awards!"

This is completely exposed...

Even the An Feng fan who was in charge of the translation was self-doubting and self-affirming in his mind while typing!

She didn't have any feelings towards Bian Lang, but as a Chinese, how could she bear to see a singer from her country win a Grammy?

This in itself has been exciting enough for a long time!
After all, she has won the Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars, but she doesn’t know any of her compatriots who have won glory for the country at the Grammys!

Although this kind of honor is not as impressive as those in military, science and technology, and sports, how can China, with its increasingly prosperous culture, do without this award?

After turning these thoughts over in her mind, she sent another message to the group: "If it is really a Grammy nomination, I have decided to follow the fairy sister to chase the God of Waves!"
