Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 707 Golden Melody Awards Rehearsal

As for people in the entertainment industry, they all had different feelings after watching it.

People in the rock circle all felt encouraged. In the past 10 years, the rock artists who have been able to appear on such shows are basically old faces. New faces like Bian Lang are really unique.

As for the music school, anyone who sees it will have two words in their mind: "Admiration!"

Although these musicians in the circle have never complained about the lack of learning resources over the years, they have all thought about this issue to some extent in their hearts.

Although most of the big-name musicians abroad are self-taught, their musical atmosphere and social acceptance are different.

Apart from other things, you can see many musicians playing musical instruments on the streets of Europe, and they also have a high-sounding name "street artists". But in China, street performances are still equated with begging in many people's minds!
Only those retired old men and women who play music to kill time in the park can be called old artists.

When I was on the original Earth, there was a rather ironic thing. After Bian Lang participated in the Snow Mountain Music Festival, he did not leave after the performance and stayed in Shuhe for a month or two.

During that time, he started singing on the street with those musicians who were abandoned by the mainstream market, and they formed a temporary group called the Journey to Malaysia Dance Troupe. Members came and went, and the income of the next day was divided equally among them.

It was in this drum and dance troupe, whose daily income from singing was no more than 300 RMB, that the big names in the folk music world, such as Zhou Yunpeng, Zhao Muyang, Zhang Quan, Zhong Lifeng, Xiaohe, Wan Xiaoli, Ma Tiao, etc. At that time, in addition to performing with the song and dance troupe, Quan also had a small stall to play the dutar in order to earn money for milk powder for his children.

As for Brother Muyang, at that time, apart from singing on the street with everyone during the day, he would drink with various acquaintances in the bar at night. According to his own recollection when he participated in the Good Song later, that period should be the lowest point in his life. At that time, his state was no different from that of a homeless person. When he was the poorest, he could only eat one steamed bun a day.

At that time, the surface of his hand drum was broken and he had no money to replace it, so he borrowed a waist drum from someone and performed with everyone.

As for Xiao He, the Meihao Pharmacy had not disbanded at that time, and he had just finished recording "XX Child" for Brother Yunpeng. He was crying in the audience while listening to Brother Yunpeng finish singing the song.

It was also at that time that Bian Lang first heard the song that has now been lost. Corresponding to the various realities in the lyrics, he felt that Brother Yunpeng was actually more rock 'n' roll than many other rock musicians.

There was also Ma Tiao who was brought to the performance by Lao Lang. At the end of the music festival, he sang a song during Lang Ge's performance as a friend.

Later, he saw Brother Muyang on "Sing Your Song", Brother Yunpeng, Brother Zhong, Xiaohe and General Wan on "Our Folk Songs", and Brother Quan asked Guo Long and Teacher Ma to reunite with Wild Kids on "Summer of the Band". Bian Lang then dug out those photos from that time and smiled foolishly at the sight.

Bian Lang himself was wondering if the tourists who helped them at that time would remember the group of people who sang on Qinglong Bridge after watching these programs...

At that time, besides singing on the streets and performing in various bars, we would just bask in the sun, drink, and study music together. Our life was very poor, but our hearts were rich! Our skills were slowly honed through these exchanges...

Later, Bian Lang performed and visited the place many times. When he went to the bar to drink, he chatted with the resident singers. He said that the salary of resident singers now starts at 10,000 yuan. But compared with the big guys who sang for money back then, his guitar playing is just amateurish...

At that time, Bian Lang asked this guy: "Did you teach yourself to play guitar?"

"Yeah, the music store teachers teach those things to coax the children and parents. I'll save some money, and if my dream of music is still there, I'll go to Midi..."

There was a Midi on the original Earth, but there is only a training class on the Blue Water Planet.

Now that the news of the Rolling Stone Music School has officially spread widely, it has undoubtedly given rock practitioners another hope. The occasional public doubts have also been completely silenced with the support of the two major art schools, Xinghai and Yunnan Art.

Although the official Weibo account of Rolling Stone Music School seems to have not started construction yet, countless people have left messages asking about registration matters.

Zheng Xiaofeng also watched Xia Xiao's exclusive interview. Although he had never met Bian Lang in person, based on this interview, he felt that it would not be an exaggeration to award Bian Lang the Lifetime Achievement Award.

But at the awards ceremony two days later, the awards that Rolling Stone and Bian Lang received seemed a bit mismatched compared to what they had done this year. But things have already happened, and he can't change anything. He just hopes that the final result will make everyone relatively satisfied.

Dong Shuxian was also watching the interview at home. The more he watched, the happier he felt. However, Dong's mother seemed a little absent-minded.

Seeing Dong Shuxian getting happier and happier, Dong's mother nudged him and said unhappily, "Since our daughter went to Europe, she has been in less and less contact with us. And as for Bian Lang, why don't you care about him and ask about him?"

Hearing this, Dong Shuxian glanced at his best daughter-in-law and became a little melancholy: "Don't you know your daughter's character? If we can get the truth out of her, then there's something fishy. As for Bian Lang, I'll ask him when I meet him in BJ this time..."

"That's more like it... Bian Lang seems to be very busy. If they really get married in the future, then..."

"That's impossible..." Although he said that, Comrade Lao Dong still hoped that Bian Lang and his daughter could get married, and the sooner that day came, the better.

"Speaking of which, when I retire, we will return to Spring City to retire. By then, I can become a violin teacher at the Rolling Stone Music School..."

……

The next day, the Rolling Stones, led by Liang Kuan, went to the venue of the Golden Melody Awards ceremony.

Before I even entered, I ran into Liu Yao at the door.

"Sister Yao..."

As soon as he said hello, Liu Yao seemed to know what he was going to ask and interrupted him directly: "It's not a coincidence, I was waiting for you outside on purpose." "What's the matter?" Liu Yao would say this, which proved that there must be something. As for whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, we can only know after it is said.

"I don't know what the organizing committee is thinking. They want to change 'Shame' into a chorus song!"

After hearing this, Bian Lang knew without asking that certain people must be brought in.

"Who? How many?"

"A young fresh meat and an old bastard!"

This combination was unexpected to Bian Lang. The young and handsome guys were easy to deal with, but the key was that the old guys were a bit uncomfortable. Moreover, Bian Lang and Liu Yao were already the top players in the rock circle. The production team knew that these two people would not agree to it easily, but they still insisted on it, which proved that there must be something going on.

"Sister Yao, do you agree?" Bian Lang is not a person who is afraid of things, especially this kind of thing. It all depends on Liu Yao's attitude.

"Can you agree to this? Even if the Rolling Stones and you weren't involved, I still wouldn't agree to this. If I agree to this, not only will I have to lower the key, but I will also have to go on stage with my lip sync. Why?"

"No, is this really the Golden Melody Awards ceremony?" After listening to Liu Yao's complaints, Bian Lang felt that it really subverted his worldview. At a music-themed awards ceremony, lip syncing was actually going on. Isn't this a bit too much?

Although Bian Lang doesn't want to meddle in other people's business, he has his own bottom line. Breaking the voice, singing the wrong words, being out of tune, playing the wrong instrument, etc. are all fine, but lip-syncing is absolutely not allowed. Even if he sings normally, it is not allowed for other collaborators to lip-sync!
However, no matter how angry he was, Bian Lang still remained rational.

"Will this be a live broadcast or a recorded broadcast?"

When Liu Yao heard Bian Lang ask this, she immediately became alert. She felt that Bian Lang must be trying to stir up trouble: "Live broadcast, what's wrong?"

"That's fine! Let's go in and take a look at the qualities of the two people who are going to join us!"

The Rolling Stones were all mocking the Golden Melody Awards' organizing committee. This temporary arrangement was basically like using them as a backing band. Although they were angry, they had nothing to say when Bian Lang asked them to go in and take a look.

Under Liu Yao's guidance, Bian Lang and his companions finally entered the shed. Immediately, staff members came up to them and said, "Teacher Liu, I think what I just said might be a little wrong. How about this? Let's do it according to the above requirements first. If it doesn't work, I'll go again..."

Before Liu Yao even opened his mouth, Bian Lang responded with one sentence: "Then let them line up. It's just a matter of walking around and posing. Why did they call us here?"

Seeing that it was Bian Lang who spoke up, the staff member was even more speechless. He had originally thought that this was ridiculous, but the director kept stressing, "How do you know it won't work if you don't try it?" He just wanted to curse in his heart, "Why don't you try it yourself? You know these two are not easy to deal with, but you let a little Karami like me come to negotiate!"

He simply made up his mind, took out the intercom and said, "Director, I am limited in my ability and cannot do this. You can either discuss this with Teacher Liu and the teachers from the Rolling Stones yourself, or find someone with more influence!"

Then he stopped talking about it and took a group of people to find a place to rest and drink water.

At this time, the youngest of the two collaborators had already arrived. Although he was an idol, he knew his own abilities. To be able to sing "Shameless" with the Rolling Stones and Liu Yao was basically a fantasy in his eyes. If he brought an old idiot with him, he couldn't imagine what the scene would be like.

But the company had made such arrangements, and no matter whether it would succeed or not, he had to attend the rehearsal.

After coming in, I heard that Rolling Stone and Liu Yao had already arrived, so I quickly asked my assistant to find someone to take me there. When I was still some distance away from the Rolling Stones, I heard Bian Lang's cold laugh: "I think your director doesn't want me and Sister Yao to go on stage at all, right? There's no need to wait, let's go."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the idol stopped moving. Although he didn't take the director seriously, he had never seen anyone who could directly argue with Bian Lang on the spot like this.

What made him even more confused was that the staff also complained: "I don't know what the higher-ups are thinking. If I were treated like this, I would definitely be more angry than you!"

After hearing this, the idol made up his mind to stand on the side of Bian Lang. The four top stars were all conquered and defeated by Bian Lang, and his small body was not even enough to be hit by them.

After learning that Bian Lang was on the candidate list for Best Male Singer, he knew very well that the Golden Melody Awards, which had been a channel for increasing traffic and achievements in recent years, would no longer exist.

As for that bastard, although he is a first-tier star and his singing skills are beyond his reach, he rose to fame thanks to his wife. In his opinion, he can't be compared with Bian Lang and others who rose to fame through their works. There is no comparison at all.

Before Bian Lang could finish his next words, he trotted over and greeted Bian Lang in a familiar manner: "Teacher Bian, my name is Liu Wei, and I'm the singer arranged by the organizing committee to sing with you. It's my honor to work with you, but I know that I..."

Bian Lang originally thought that the young handsome guy Liu Yao mentioned would be someone similar to Xia Yuxi, but why did he turn out to be someone like Liu Xiaokui?
Some things don't need to be said explicitly, Bian Lang understood some of them. It was obvious that Liu Wei had some objections to the company's arrangement, and he probably had some problems with that old bastard. In this case, Bian Lang figured out what to do.

Although the director had power and tasks, he did not dare to offend these two people. A few minutes after Liu Wei arrived, he came over in person.

Seeing the staff member who had spoken to him on the intercom before, he first looked at him coldly, then immediately went up to greet Bian Lang and the others with a smile on his face: "Teacher Bian, Teacher Liu, I'm really sorry, I'm just following the instructions from above. Please support my work to some extent. If the effect is really not good, we won't force it..."

Bian Lang felt a little annoyed when listening to these soft yet sharp words, but he knew that this matter was not something that the director could decide alone. He did not want to know about the various relationships involved and just wanted to stand and receive the award.

"What about the other person?"

The director didn't expect that Bian Lang didn't have any verbal friction with him, and he directly pointed the finger at the person who hadn't arrived yet. He didn't give an immediate answer, but took out his phone to check the time. After confirming that the agreed time had passed, he pretended to be very embarrassed and said through gritted teeth: "No need to wait, you guys go first."
