Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 791: Dream

This time the super fan replaced Silva with Hatter, but only Femos sat on it, while the other members of Hatter's group remained below as professional fans.

This time, there is one more person in their DGM team, and that is Cohen.

He arrived in Spring City last night, and Evelyn went to meet him at the airport. When he got here, he didn't meet Bian Lang who was rehearsing, and he went to the hotel to sleep to adjust to the jet lag, and he didn't get to know anyone from the Rolling Stones first.

Cohen and Hatter were not familiar with each other, and at that time Bob and the others were waiting for the opening performance, so he stood out among the professional music fans.

Facing those deliberate looks directed at him, he felt quite embarrassed and now he just hoped the show would start quickly!
What he didn't know was that many variety show producers were looking at him, and were already thinking about going to find out during the intermission who this big shot sent by DGM was.

I was thinking about whether I could find an opportunity to get in touch and see if we could reach a cooperation.

As for Ken's agent, he was now standing in the staff area in the corner chatting with Evelyn.

"Ms. Evelyn, please forgive my previous ignorance, but all of this is really beyond my imagination. I really didn't expect that China would host such a program!"

"It's not too late to know now, so do you understand how rare the opportunity Wave gave Cohen was? This is not just a song, it's a star-making plan, and it was customized by Wave himself."

No wonder Logan couldn’t think of it. Even Elf couldn’t think of it at that time.

Although if this program were to buy the copyright and be produced in Europe, it might not necessarily be as popular as in China. After all, if one wants to be on par with Chinese bands like "Summer of the Band" in terms of status, it is simply impossible in Europe!
Bands that can become the backbone of European rock music don't have the time and energy to appear on such variety shows. Even if they had to spend time and energy, they would rather fly leaves or find a few stamp collectors to have a party... because the European rock music market really doesn't need them to do these things!
At the moment, Logan heard that two of the bands that were going to perform today had a history older than his age. If a band could last that long in Europe, it would definitely not be too bad.

But now this band and rock musicians are gathering here to perform hard to promote rock music! This is what amazes him the most...

Hatter has completed several stops in the domestic tour and is now more comfortable interacting with Chinese music fans, so they opened the show with half a song "Rock and Roll on the New Long March" to warm up the venue, and then continued with their own works, which marked the first climax of the recording session.

Many rock fans who were watching Hatter's live performance up close for the first time lamented: "The front-stage tickets for the tour are not as good as this! It's a pity that he only played one and a half songs!"

"One and a half songs is already pretty good, what else do you want? You didn't pay a dime for the ticket to come here, you got in just by luck! Do you want someone to sing for you all night?"

"That... is not impossible..."

The fans' chatter, cheers and applause sent Hatter off the stage. When Phimos sat down in the super fan's chair, Niu Boyi asked jokingly, "Pimos, how do you feel about changing seats today?"

After listening to the translation in the headset, Feimos made a funny expression and said, "If there is no contract agreement, I would rather be downstairs partying with the fans. These bands are very good, and their music makes me want to do something naturally, but being in this position makes me feel a little restrained!"

Niu Boyi's English is very good, and he immediately translated this to the audience. After this humorous speech, everyone developed a good impression of Feimos.

Yang Meng, who was preparing in the back, was so nervous that he grabbed Luo Lin with both hands and stamped his feet non-stop: "Brother Luo Lin, what should I do? I'm so panicked!"

"Just treat it as a music festival, why are you panicking?"

"This is different. We are the first to open the show, and we don't have the chance to re-record. What if it's wasted? We would be embarrassed in front of rock fans across the country!"

Seeing Yang Meng like this, Dayong didn't know how to comfort her, but instead added another layer of pressure to her: "Then it's just right for us to disband after the performance of Faces! Anyway, everyone has a team..."

"Then I wouldn't be a big sinner..." As she said this, Yang Meng felt her tears were about to fall.

Di Li glared at Dayong, then walked over and stroked her back, saying, "Don't listen to Dayong's nonsense, just ask him if he is willing to disband like this? He has disbanded so many bands! Don't put so much pressure on yourself, just consider it as adapting in advance, you may have to bring a compass with you to the show next time..."

Luo Lin also interrupted and said, "Just keep a normal mind. I'm still here to support you, right?"

Although these were all soothing words, they didn't seem to have any effect. Yang Meng continued to stamp her feet!
Hedgehog was the second one to go on stage, and just then Bian Lang and the others came over. Seeing Yang Meng "dancing the gods", Huang Kai was amused: "Is Yang Meng going to add another show later?"

"I guess he's nervous. He's the first one and can only pass it in one try. It's normal to be nervous!" Bian Lang said as he walked over, took off the sunglasses hanging on his collar, and put them on Yang Meng's nose without saying a word.

"Go up and find the right lighting position, then sing with your eyes closed. Wait until it's a little loose before you start interacting..." As he said this, he checked Yang Meng's guitar strap.

After hearing what Bian Lang said, Yang Meng felt less nervous all of a sudden with the help of psychological effect: "Well, Brother Lang, you guys should also come on!" After saying that, he leaned over and clenched his fist towards Ding Ding behind Bian Lang, signaling Ding Ding to come on.

But when Bian Lang returned to her side, Xie Minzhi began to panic: "Brother Lang, what should I do? I'm nervous too!" After a few days of getting along, their relationship became closer, and naturally the way they addressed each other changed.

This made Bian Lang laugh: "You have seen a lot more of the world than any of us here, why are you so nervous?"

Xie Minzhi paced back and forth in her spot, her shiny short boots making the people watching her dizzy. Then she hesitated and said, "When I participated in variety shows before, I had pre-recorded audio for post-production, and my concerts were also half-open mic. This time I was asked to fully open the mic and there was no chance to re-record. I'm really nervous! What should I do if you guys get a low score?"

As soon as these words came out, the whole band was petrified. Although they usually asked this question to tease pop singers, they never expected that they would have to work together one day.

I really don’t know how to help Bian Lang with his psychological support.

"It's okay, your fans love you very much, no matter how you sing, someone will help you clean up!"

"Relax, Ding Ding will support you. You don't need to be so nervous. I will also speak up at the critical moment..."

"Don't be nervous, few people in the audience know you..."

After going through several answers in his mind, Bian Lang felt that none of them would work. Finally, Ding Ding spoke up, "This game may not decide life or death. You have to believe in Brother Lang's influence. Even if we make mistakes and the professional team doesn't give us high scores, we can still advance to the next round with our popularity." After hearing this, Xie Minzhi relaxed a little, but she thought of the rehearsal with Exodus before: "If Hedgehog hadn't come over, and I had failed to sing well, it would have affected the band for a long time."

Before coming, she really just wanted to get some traffic, but after coming, she gradually realized that the traffic from "Summer of the Band" was not something that anyone could get.

She did know about the terms of open mic and no re-recording before she came, but she didn't expect that "Summer of the Band" would actually implement these deceptive things written in the contract.

She can responsibly tell everyone: "In the past three years, she really hasn't sung on stage with a microphone!"

At this moment, Niu Boyi's voice came from the front: "Next, please welcome Yang Meng, the lead singer of the Face Band and Compass Band, to the stage..."

Although they were not there, Bian Lang and Huang Kai still blew a few whistles to cheer them on.

Luo Lin also turned around and gave them a thumbs up, then went up with a group of people.

When seeing Luo Lin and his team go on stage, the TV people who were there for the first time were confused by Luo Lin's skin condition:
"This lead singer is good. Please invite him to act in a TV series. He can definitely do the ancient costume makeup!"

"He should be about the same age as Bian Lang. His looks are not bad. I used to only hear that there are handsome guys in the rock circle, but now I believe it!"

"This is the band with the same name as the one on The Voice of China. The whole band's spirit is different! The ones over there look like they are just performing, but these ones look like they are from underground!"

Pan Jianhu didn't want to explain to them after hearing these words. He just took out his phone and sent a message to the director team: "Ask Teacher Niu to ask Luo Lin's age during the interaction later."

Of course, Luo Lin on the stage didn't know all this. He and Yang Meng stood on the left and right. After they exchanged glances, they heard the voice in the headphones telling them to start.

Then the stage lights dimmed instantly, and then a laser on the top of the stage lit up, forming a triangle under a beam of orange light. Luo Lin and Yang Meng stood at one corner of the triangle.

This allows the lower half of their bodies to be in the light and the upper half to be in darkness, making it difficult to see their faces clearly.

At this moment, the two Gibson guitars in the hands of the two people emitted clear sounds at the same time, like an aria in the sunset.

After two bars, the audience heard a chant from someone who was not sure whether it was Luo Lin or Yang Meng: "WU...EI..."

Dayong pinched the end of the chant and beat the cymbals to send a signal to everyone, followed by all kinds of heavy sounds coming one after another!

Lights and various heavy musical instruments were added, and orange lasers flickered on the stage, just like the changing sunset. Every blink of an eye was another frame of the picture.

Although Bian Lang couldn't see the stage in front of him, he closed his eyes and listened carefully. The live scenes of the original Earth faces participating in the Summer of Music rolled in his mind along with the music.

The moment the prelude ended, the orange light on the stage, heralding sunset, turned blue at the same time, as if night had fallen.

Luo Lin's singing voice also began to ripple throughout the scene: "When the sun puts away its warm light, I am tired and want to take a rest. I close my heavy eyes with tears in my eyes and walk silently towards the cliff of my dream..."

While the people in front were amazed at Luo Lin's brilliant voice, the image in Bian Lang's mind was the noisy scene in the viewing room of "Summer of the Band" on the original Earth.

"remember!"

"Huaxia Fire!"

"It's 'Fire Instinct'..."

“Oh, it’s been more than 20 years…”

Then Gao Hu sang along: "The world in my dreams is like a painting. I am so tall in my dreams. I dreamed of you, a joke, all the beauty and my home..."

Luo Lin was still singing at the scene. The pitch rose an octave, but his voice didn't shake at all. It was still as steady and bright as ever!
The previous performances were mediocre, the song selections were also average, there was no particularly eye-catching performance, and the advantage of Luo Lin's high-pitched timbre was not shown. But this voice made Lao Jiang stand up from his seat.

"I never thought that there is such a good lead singer hidden in the domestic rock circle! The candidate for next year's "Singer" has been selected!"

The song continues: "So I can let you stay, so I can wait for your answer, so I can stop wandering, so I can go home with you..."

The song is a little sad, a little melancholy, and a little hopeful. These are the emotions that Yang Meng wants to convey to the audience through her singing.

Let everyone enjoy the interlude while slowly savoring the flavor.

The distorted guitar sound, rising higher and higher, with the strong drum beats, brings out Yang Meng's singing: "You said that I was a little silly in the dream, you said that you wouldn't be afraid in the dream, please don't wake me up and let me go, there is no more sadness and no worries in the dream..."

The first paragraph of Yang Meng's speech was smooth and there was nothing particularly eye-catching, but the next paragraph started to explode: "The world in the dream is like a painting. I was so tall in the dream. I dreamed of you, a joke, all the beautiful things and my home... Alas..."

It directly played 5 sets of high notes, which seemed to carry tons of sound waves and hit directly into everyone's mind. The angry voice at the end directly gave everyone a tsunami in their brains!
Those who are not familiar with Yang Meng are all wondering: "Where did the Rolling Stones find these singers? If they were released with such quality, the pop music scene would have another great vocalist!"

Only Lao Jiang, who had invited Compass to attend the evening party on Fruit TV, shook his head again and again: "Compared with this guy, our music director is just a piece of shit! Such a great vocalist, but he didn't even make a splash in our place!"
