Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 801 Bian Lang, give me back An Feng!
After Olaf accompanied Walker back to the hotel, Zhang Fan and Bian Lang started talking seriously: "From a legal perspective, it would be best to let DGM deal with them directly. I just asked my classmates about this, and I also asked Lawyer Zhuang, but they don't have any relevant resources. There are even very few relevant cases..."

"Indeed, under normal circumstances, if the losses and impacts are not big, who would be willing to fight such a lawsuit with little chance of success? Even if you win, you will just have to pay some money in the end. I guess that's what CAA thinks!"

Zhang Fan also nodded and said, "Indeed, this is an open conspiracy. It depends on how you deal with it."

"It's impossible to either bow your head and ask for peace, or endure being bullied by them. DGM, don't think you can just take the benefits without taking responsibility. We still have friends in the United States, right? I'll ask AC if they have any suggestions."

After calculating the time difference and knowing that it was still morning there, Bian Lang contacted Wang Wenhui directly.

It was daytime in Berlin now, and Wang Wenhui was quite surprised when he received the call: "Brother Lang, why did you think of calling me at this time? It should be late at night in China, right? What's the emergency?"

He is now considered a model of winning without doing anything. The agency fees from the Rolling Stones and DGM every year are enough for him to cross classes in Berlin. The key is that it's easy!

Everything was agreed between the two parties, and he just took the contract to the relevant department to go through the process. So if there was any problem with the Rolling Stones, he would definitely run faster than anyone else to help solve it.

"Please contact AC. We are facing such a situation now..."

Wang Wenhui thought it was a small matter at first, but after Bian Lang explained all the possibilities to him, he understood: "He is really not of my kind, so his heart must be different!"

"You must have read too many fantasy novels to say that. Anyway, this is what happened. I'd like to trouble you to ask AC for more information..."

"Brother Lang, don't worry. If this matter cannot be explained clearly via email or phone, I will fly over directly."

"Thank you very much! If you have any news, just contact me directly!"

"Brother Lang, you are still so distant with me. These are what I should do!"

……

When the day of the re-recording of "Summer of the Band" came, An Feng, who had always clamored to be a super music fan, landed in Spring City in a low-key manner.

The person who went to pick them up was Guo Sichu. After coming out of the airport, she took An Feng and her team directly to Nanfeiyan.

On the terrace of the snack street restaurant, Bian Lang and three other super music fans were there, as well as Qiu Luo with a droopy face and Lao Mo with an excited look on his face.

After the plan to recreate MJ was temporarily put on hold, Bian Lang asked Qiu Luo to figure out a way to replace him with a celebrity with a similar time and background. The plot was previously designed around MJ, but now any unreasonable parts could be changed.

Qiu Luo carefully screened for a few days and finally chose a veteran British singer under DGM. Although he could not be compared with MJ in terms of legendary status, he was enough to support the plot of "Old Boy". There was another important reason, that is, DGM had let down the Rolling Stones because of the previous incident, and this time they wanted every penny of the copyright royalties.

Of course, Bian Lang also generously gave a song to this basically retired British singer as a thank you.

As for Lao Mo's excitement, of course it was because he had received a new project. Since Bian Lang had already made up his mind to do MJ's story, there was absolutely no reason for him to give up.

Since the real-life version is not reliable, just make it into a comic. Anyway, it is quite suitable to use the American comic style to make MJ's appearance. But Bian Lang needs to hurry up and register the copyright of the script first.

AC also contacted Wang Wenhui and started to help find a solution. When they heard that Bian Lang had this plan, they certainly wanted to get involved. After all, the work was finally out, and they would continue to cooperate. The success of "V" also deepened their trust in Bian Lang, a Chinese!

Fortunately, Qiu Luo's screenwriter, Zhou Qi, is very capable. When she was working on the script for "Oldboy", she had a rough idea of ​​MJ's story. After listening to Bian Lang's narration several times, she started to create it directly. After coming up with a rough idea, she discussed and revised it with Bian Lang. First, she came up with something rough and let AC take it to see how to occupy the spot in the United States!
Lao Mo still took out the draft of the settings as usual, and then he improved it first.

As soon as An Feng arrived, he naturally attracted most people's attention.

After seeing this, Qiu Luo and Lao Mo tactfully left and went to the next table, leaving their seats for Guo Sichu and An Feng.

"This is my first time to be a mentor on a variety show, so you guys have to take good care of me when the time comes..." It wasn't the first time that An Feng met the others. Except for Liu Xiaokui who was a little unfamiliar, he had only met the others at the Rolling Stone Music Festival in May.

"You are the national goddess, what are you worried about? No matter what outrageous things you do, everyone will forgive you..."

"Sister Chuchu, what you said makes me afraid to go on the show! I know a lot of people are eyeing my position. Did I hear that Sister Yao and many senior singers want to be super fans?"

Guo Sichu nodded without comment and said, "Yes, the two from Hong Kong also want to come, but they can only wait until next season. As for Liu Yao, there is no way, she has to go out to support the band in person, so this position is not suitable for her."

Speaking of this, Liu Ziyang immediately came over and interrupted, "Then she will probably come the year after next. I heard that she had a great time this time and went back to discuss it with her old friends in the original band. I guess she will come as a participating band next year."

Bian Lang didn't respond to them, mainly because An Feng's outfit of rose-red jeans and green short-sleeved shirt was too bold, and he was afraid that he would say something he shouldn't, and then...

So Bian Lang was busy with his own business, still thinking about the finals. It was decided that the recording would still be done in the studio, but the time and specific content had not yet been decided.

He was stunned for a while. Pan Jianhu came over without knowing when. He sat directly next to Bian Lang, stretched out his hand to grab a piece of tofu that was about to burst, tore it open with both hands and blew air, then slowly said: "Tomorrow I will bring a few more people to the scene. They are the band from Taiwan who came to the Ximangmang Music Festival for cultural exchange."

"That's great. Ximangmang, you went to see it. How was it?"

"Exodus was going crazy, even the punk kid Li Hao was dragged along to do some headbanging. They were followed by the Magpie band, who sang two songs and it seemed like the fans were still in shock!"

"Magpie is really unlucky. How many bands from Taiwan are here?"

"Three, the Goat's teammates still haven't shown up. They all play quite independently, and it feels very similar to the album you're planning to release at the end of the year. Don't just listen to me, you're just making trouble, it's going to be a mess..."

"Brother Hu, can you please be more conscientious? I have been serving you all the time!"

"What do you mean by serving me? You love flipping tofu the most, but you don't eat it after I flip it. I'm sharing the fruits of your labor!"

This is not entirely true. Bian Lang did eat every bite of the tofu he found, but he ate less. According to him, "I just like to watch the process of tofu being roasted until it's about to explode..."

The resurrection match was to be recorded early the next morning. No one drank any alcohol and didn't eat much before Niu Boyi asked for the bill and left.

The resurrection match is for the bands that were eliminated in the previous rounds. The public votes for 6 bands, and the two groups with the highest scores are successfully resurrected.

When Bian Lang arrived downstairs of his house, he deliberately stepped over to Le Xia Pavilion to watch the rehearsal.

Seeing that it was his former opponent Wa Chi on top, he listened once, shouted "Come on" and went back to sleep.

Although Hedgehog doesn't have to go on stage tomorrow, Bian Lang still has other tasks, and he will continue to be the background board in the viewing room. If he is photographed sleeping in the room, the production crew will definitely not edit him out, and will definitely give him a close-up or something.

Bian Lang still has this idol image.

When I arrived the next morning, the entrance was unsurprisingly crowded with fans who came to see An Feng. The crowded and noisy scene was in stark contrast to the rock fans who were waiting in line to enter!
Anyway, Bian Lang was not in a hurry. He stood at the door with a group of people wearing a hat, sunglasses and a mask to watch the fun. When An Feng's white nanny car appeared, Bian Lang felt that his eardrums were about to be broken by these high notes that might have reached HIGHC in an instant.

When An Feng got out of the car at the door to greet the fans and sign autographs, Bian Lang had the illusion that these fans were all coloratura sopranos from the music academy:

"An Feng, I love you!"

"Come on, An Feng..."

"Wow, An Feng's raw photos are so amazing!"

Bian Lang was jostled by these crazy fans and almost lost the soy milk he had just bought and had not yet had time to drink.

Someone even asked him, "Why don't you take out your phone to take a picture? This may be the only chance in your life to see An Feng so closely."

Bian Lang smiled politely, then took off his sunglasses and mask while a group of people looked at him like a fool. Amid the security guards' strange but intimate tone, he swaggered in following An Feng!

Someone at the other side of the fan entrance recognized him and shouted from a few meters away: "Bian Erlang, drinking soy milk so early in the morning?"

Bian Lang heard this and replied with a smile: "Yeah, go to the bathroom first before going in! It's hard to hold back during a few hours of show!"

At this moment, An Feng, who was walking in front, heard it and turned around. Seeing that it was Bai Bianlang, she trotted back. Seeing that the soy milk in his hand was still untouched, she grabbed it directly.

"It's over there at the restaurant. Can't we just go over there and eat?"

"I still have to go to the dressing room to adjust my look, so it's more convenient for you to stay here. I can sit down and have a drink. You don't have to dress up today, so you can go and eat slowly!" After saying this, An Feng ran away.

Only Bian Lang was left standing inside the gate, bearing the hatred of everyone at the door!
Yes, everyone! Even the rock fans waiting in line to enter the venue started to curse:
"Bian Erlang, you really are a Border Collie!"

"Bian Lang, please be a human being. If you really hook up with An Feng, the people of this country will crowdfund a rocket to send you to outer space!"

"This! This! This! How dare you, Bian Lang!"

After hearing the loud shouting here, An Feng’s fans finally realized that the man pretending to be a fan and eating An Feng’s food was actually Bian Lang!

Then Bian Lang inexplicably became a hot topic!

……

This little episode did not affect Bian Lang at all. After entering Le Xia Hall, Bian Lang went directly to the back of the stage to meet up with others.

The opening performance today is New Pants, but Shant wants to invite Bian Lang to go on stage with him, because Shant feels that this new song will lack flavor without Bian Lang, and he must tie Bian Lang up no matter what.

To this end, Bian Lang also practiced Minnan dialect for a few days.

Seeing Bian Lang coming, the goat took the lead in greeting: "Brother Lang!"

"Yeah!" Bian Lang responded and then asked, "How is it? Some fellow villagers are coming with you today, so don't panic!"

"With you backing me up on stage, what do I have to fear?"

"I'm not JJ Lin, nor am I Richie Jen!" Thinking this in his mind, Bian Lang said jokingly: "Then you'd better pray that I don't pronounce it wrong later."

“It’s okay. You are Bian Lang anyway. No one will blame you even if you sing wrong!” Shanyang said this in a strong and powerful voice. Bian Lang himself felt like he was beginning to believe it.

The two chatted for a few words when the on-site director came over and called out. Seeing Bian Lang here, he asked one more question: "Teacher Bian, do you really not need a teleprompter?"

"Really? No need. If you type the Chinese lyrics, I'm afraid I'll start reciting Mandarin. If you type the pinyin for me, I probably won't be able to react. It's just the chorus anyway, it's fine!"

What Bian Lang said was not bragging, it was the true situation. If it was just the chorus, even if he hadn't had the special training in the past few days, he could sing it almost the same, not to mention that he had practiced for a few days.

"Okay, then countdown 10 minutes!" Then he left.

The goat looked at the electronic clock on the wall behind him, and then began to search his pockets, from the shirt pocket to the pockets of his overalls, but he only managed to pull out a few picks.

Finally, Mu Mian couldn't stand it anymore and took out a cigarette box from his jacket pocket and threw it over: "Only one!"

The goat took it, opened the cover and looked at it, then laughed and said, "I think this song won't have the flavor if I don't smoke a cigarette!"

The others looked at him and laughed, with an expression that said, "I don't believe you."

But after Shanyang lit it and took two puffs, he passed it to Bian Lang...

Looking at the cigarette butt that was handed to him, Bian Lang was a little dazed. This was something that only poor students like him would do in junior high and high school, and Bian Lang never thought that he would still be able to do it at this age and in this occasion.

However, this goes well with the song we're going to sing later.

Yan Bianlang took two puffs and passed it back to Mu Mian. Mu Mian saw that it was not a spit cigarette butt, but she did not refuse it...

When the message reached Kong Liang, a voice began to come out of the earphones of several people: "Prepare for the countdown, 30..."

Kong Liang took two big puffs, then threw the cigarette butt into the Coke bottle at his feet and hid behind the speakers. Bian Lang also put on his tuned electric guitar and stood behind the microphone stand.

"Now, please welcome today's opening band, New Pants!"

As Niu Boyi's oral announcement appeared, the large screen in front began to rise slowly, and all of Bian Lang and his companions were transported to the stage in front by the mobile stage.

When they saw Bian Lang standing on the stage in a nonchalant manner, the fans at the scene were excited!

"Bian Lang, give me back An Feng!"
