Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 708 Just Do As He Said
At the same time, Jason, the jerk who has not appeared yet, is now sitting in the nanny car, waiting for his assistant to confirm the final performance method.

Jason had no part in the Golden Melody Awards. He was nominated for the Best Male Singer of the Year, but he was not invited to perform. This basically explains a lot. As for why he became a "slacker" in Liu Yao's words, it was mainly because although his singing skills were okay, he didn't have any memorable works.

However, thanks to his wife's help, he became one of the top singers just a few years after his debut.

Jason was a little unwilling. After all, as one of the sponsors, his company didn't know whether it could interfere with the result of the award. But there was absolutely no problem for him to perform on stage. It just so happened that he also liked the song "Shame" and wanted to give it a try. The key point was that with his wife's connections in the circle, there would be absolutely no problem with this matter!
Then after some discussion, they added Jason and Liu Wei, who was nominated for Best Newcomer.

The lip syncing and flat pitch mentioned by Liu Yao before, the flat pitch was directed at this person, because he likes to show off his high pitch skills all the time, but in fact his timbre in the 5th or even 4th group of high pitch area is very average, and his pronunciation is unclear, not at all as comfortable as his alto singing.

So everyone in the circle teased him to tone it down! The key point is that he not only refused to accept it, but also became even more extreme with the support of those crazy fans!
As for lip syncing, it should be Liu Wei, but now it seems that Liu Wei is not willing to do this.

After hearing the assistant's explanation: "It's time but Brother Jie hasn't arrived yet. It's not good to let Bian Lang and the others wait, so let the band line up first. It's just right for you to go up!" Jason got out of the nanny car with a bit of arrogance and walked slowly towards the venue!

At the same time, he was thinking about how to get others to agree with his lyrics distribution, as well as the new arrangement he had given to the director team before. He was also looking forward to what the effect would be when the Rolling Stones performed it!
But when he arrived at the scene, after listening to half of "Shame" by the Rolling Stones and Liu Yao in the audience, there was no smile on his face at all.

Because he could tell that the Stones' performance was the original version, and had nothing to do with the revised version he gave to the director team. And judging from the way they were discussing on stage, it seemed that they hadn't taken him into consideration at all!

The reason why Jason has such mysterious confidence now is mainly because his career has been too smooth since his debut.

He made his debut in a talent show on the Fruit Channel, fell in love with the female host of the show at the time, and then began his meteoric rise to the pinnacle of his life. Moreover, the female host of this Golden Melody Awards ceremony is his wife.

Although he doesn't have many works of his own, he has made many other people's works popular by covering them in the past.

Therefore, many musicians even hope that Jason can adapt and cover their works. Over time, Jason himself lacks the most basic respect for other people's songs. Of course, another reason is that the circles are different. No matter how successful Bian Lang is in the rock circle, he thinks it is nothing special in Jason's eyes.

At this time, the director, reminded by the staff, also saw Jason's arrival. Just as he was about to greet and explain the situation, Jason's wife also arrived.

After the two exchanged a few words offstage, Jason's wife came directly to the director and said in a seemingly respectful but actually somewhat arrogant tone, "Director, is there any omission in the communication of our arrangement? Why is it different from what was stated in the process I received before?"

The director cursed in his heart: "How could there be such a process in your script? It's simply..." But he smiled and said, "The Rolling Stones and Teacher Liu have arrived first. This is the sound check. I will go and coordinate it right away."

As he said this, he picked up the intercom and prepared to speak, but thinking about Liu Yao and Bian Lang's temper, he stood up and went to the stage with the music score.

He is not a music expert, but he knows that Jason's arrangement is definitely not as good as the original song. If he were the Rolling Stones, he would definitely not be happy about it. But what can he do...

He went up to the stage with gritted teeth. Seeing Bian Lang discussing word division with Liu Yao, the director instinctively felt a little scared, but after thinking it over he spoke.

"Teacher Bian, sorry to interrupt, could you try ours..." His voice was normal at the beginning, but later it became quieter and quieter until he could hardly hear it.

But Bian Lang showed no intention of resisting. He took the tablet with a smile and asked, "Was this edited by the music director? I wonder who is the music director this time?"

Bian Lang asked this question sincerely, without any intention of mocking. As the saying goes, there are 10,000 Hamlets in the hearts of 10,000 people, so there are definitely 10,000 versions of "Shame" in the hearts of 10,000 musicians. As long as it sounds good, Bian Lang and the Rolling Stones will not resist changing the arrangement.

But the director didn't mean the same thing. Considering the reputation that Bian Lang had in the industry, the director felt that this was the rhythm of him getting ready to go crazy.

But he couldn't let the music director take the blame: "Teacher Bian, this was not changed by the music director, it was changed by Teacher Jason!"

"Jason? Who is he? Is he Tony's colleague?" Bian Lang really didn't know who this Jason was, but he guessed that he was the scoundrel Liu Yao mentioned. If he was a scoundrel, then what right did he have to modify "Shame".

As soon as he said this, the others couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Liu Yao laughed so hard that he held his waist and said, "Bian Lang, you are such a talented person! If his wife hears this, she will definitely say something to poke you on stage tomorrow!"

"That may not be the case. I am just a runner-up and I have no chance to go on stage at all!"

Hearing Bian Lang say such things, the director quickly tried to smooth things over, "Teacher Bian, why don't you take a look first? If it's okay, please..."

Seeing that the director was quite polite, Bian Lang clicked on the score and started reading it.

It would be fine if he didn't watch it, but once he did, Bian Lang was so angry that he laughed: "Isn't this outrageous? The main song is all piano riffs. Did this teacher Tony graduate from the piano department?"

After finishing this round, he didn't bother to look at the rest and just handed the score to Liu Yao.

Liu Yao also laughed when he saw it: "This song is called "Shame on Me", not "Singing for No Disease"..."

At this time, Jason also went on stage with his assistant. He didn't hear what was said here, but from the expressions of Bian Lang and Liu Yao, he could tell that they were definitely not optimistic about his arrangement.

But he was confident that he could convince them, so he ignored the assistant's reminder and just walked over.

Seeing that the real owner had arrived and had someone to blame, the director immediately introduced him enthusiastically: "Teacher Bian, this is Teacher Jason..."

He didn't mind how the director addressed him before, but when he was called teacher together with Jason, Bian Lang immediately became unhappy: "Director, you can just call me Bian Lang, I don't dare to have the same identity as Teacher Tony. By the way, just play the accompaniment as he said, we will go downstairs and wait, and we will come up when the Rolling Stones have a solo rehearsal."

Bian Lang can accept others to adapt this song, but he cannot accept it being tarnished. Anyway, if the song insists on being sung by Jason, Bian Lang will not go on stage with the Rolling Stones to embarrass that person. Seeing Bian Lang's direct words, Liu Yao, who is likely to win the Golden Melody Award for "Shame", also said: "Director, how about this, I will not participate in this performance, let Jason and Liu Wei sing it, so as to save a lot of trouble!"

"Teacher Liu, this won't work. You want to win an award with this song..." The director was panicked at this moment.

As an old hand in the entertainment industry, he knows all too well the consequences of fights between gods and villains.

In today's situation, no matter which side compromises in the end, they must fight for the moment, otherwise Liu Yao and Bian Lang's position as leaders in the rolling circle will become a joke.

As for Jason, he thought that his initial idea was that no matter what, Bian Lang and the others would not just quit, but he obviously overestimated his own face and the bottom line of rock people.

Liu Yao didn't care what the director said. He patted Jason's shoulder and said, "Sing well..." Then he walked off the stage with Bian Lang.

Jason felt that he could ignore the Rolling Stones, but he couldn't ignore Liu Yao's face. If he and Liu Wei really sang the song together, and the song won the Golden Melody Award, then his reputation in the circle would be ruined.

After thinking this through, he quickly said, "Teacher Liu Yao, my arrangement is just..."

"Just what? This song doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right? The program crew didn't give us a penny in copyright fees, how can you take all this for granted?" Bian Lang hadn't walked far yet. He really didn't want to talk to these people behind their backs about things that had nothing to do with music.

He even regretted it now. His obsession with winning a Golden Melody Award might have been wrong! If the award was based on such disgusting things, then he might as well not win it!

This was probably the first time Jason was questioned like this in person since his debut, and for a moment he really couldn't think of any rebuttal.

He was used to everything that was taken for granted under his wife's care, and even if others had opinions, they would not say so in front of him. So at this time, his face was flushed, and his fists were clenched tightly.

The director saw that he was about to get into trouble, so he quickly stepped out to smooth things over, saying, "Teacher Bian... no... Bian Lang, let's just pretend Jason never mentioned the song adaptation. What do you think?"

Although he gave in, Bian Lang still felt unhappy.

The award for "Shame" went to Liu Yao, and he had nothing to say. Liu Yao paid for the copyright of the cover at that time, and used his influence to push the song to the top of last year's list. If someone else did this, they might not have achieved this result.

But Jason is relying on some connections to get the benefits for free. How can he be so shameless?

Bian Lang knew without even watching that the guy definitely took the chorus for himself when he was dividing the lyrics, and the subsequent marketing direction must have been: "Who is more suitable for "Shame" Liu Yao or Jason! " It's as if the song was originally sung by him.

But Bian Lang changed his mind and decided that if he solved the problem like this off stage, it still wouldn’t be satisfying enough. It would be a live broadcast anyway, and unless the organizer cut off the broadcast, he would definitely send Jason to the hot search list!

Rock music is not a terrible beast, but it is definitely not a lamb to be slaughtered.

Now that I have figured out that my life is to stand and sing, I must slap the faces of all those people who are always trying to show off their presence and who think they can do anything!
After figuring this out, Bian Lang sneered and said, "Not very good, you should ask Teacher Tony what he thinks!"

"Bian Lang, I didn't provoke you, did I? Why are you so unreasonable?"

"Why don't you just sing your own songs? Why do you want to change our Rolling Stones' songs?"

"You?" Jason was about to go crazy. He couldn't figure it out. Was Bian Lang really not afraid that his wife would use her connections in the industry to trip him up?

How could he know that old man Bian Lang didn't even know who his wife was? Even if he knew, he probably wouldn't take it to heart.

At this time, Liang Kuan and Jason's wife walked onto the stage hand in hand. They walked and talked cheerfully, which formed a sharp contrast with the low pressure here.

But needless to say, Bian Lang could probably guess that the person Liang Kuan was holding should be Jason's wife, and Bian Lang felt that although the two seemed to be talking and laughing on the surface, they were probably sneering at each other in their hearts.

Seeing that Bian Lang was about to leave the stage, Liang Kuan probably guessed what was going on. He walked closer and introduced: "Bian Lang, let me introduce you, this is Liu Fang, the famous host of Fruit Channel. She will also be the hostess of tomorrow's award ceremony. By the way, her husband is Jason."

Bian Lang nodded and smiled, "Hello!" Then he said to Liang Kuan, "The arrangement that Teacher Jason changed is too complicated. We can't handle it. Please help coordinate it. We will come up after the rehearsal later."

After saying this, Bian Lang turned around and left without caring about Liu Fang's surprised expression.

At this time, Liu Yao also came over and greeted Liu Fang, then left the stage without saying a word, leaving only the furious Jason and the innocent-looking Liu Wei on the stage.

Liu Fang walked away, looking at the backs of those people leaving the stage. His eyes narrowed, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, not sure whether it was evil or crazy or had some other meaning.

An hour later, Liu Yao and the Rolling Stones in the lounge finally got the news. The organizer still hoped that the Rolling Stones and Liu Yao could bring the two people with them, and in exchange they could consider paying part of the copyright fee.

Seeing the message on his phone, Bian Lang's eyes rolled, and then he said to everyone, "Then let's just follow what Teacher Tony said. Hua Yan, is the piano riff okay?"

They were all people who had a tacit understanding, so Hua Yan didn't ask why, and simply nodded and said, "What's the problem..."
