Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 836: Master Bao Appears
The ending at the end was like a radio that was about to lose its signal range. It did not have a perfect ending, but it left endless reverie for the fans.

After coming to their senses, these reporters from China were all wondering how the domestic entertainment industry would rate this song after the video of the song was transmitted back to China.

Looking at the foreigners who are immersed in it and unable to extricate themselves for a long time, they can all imagine that the popularity of the Rolling Stones' overseas tour will definitely not be low.

The fact that foreigners can have such a reaction even though they don’t understand the lyrics is enough to show the high quality of the music itself.

There is no accurate answer to how long Wan Qing's album lasted. But the original Wan Qing was founded in 2002, and "The Unomnipotent Comedy" was released in 06. It was not until 2010 that Wan Qing's album of the same name was released.

Even if we count from 06, it took 4 years to make this album. Although it can't be compared with the ten years it took to polish a single album for "Jixiannan Linluxing", but compared with the current music market where dozens of songs are produced every month and the number of plays reaches hundreds of millions, the difference in quality and attitude is cosmic.

The key is that on the original Earth, there is basically no doubt that "Universal Youth Hostel" is hailed as the first Chinese rock album. But on the Blue Water Planet, it took Bian Lang a year.

It is conceivable that when the album is released, both the album itself and Bian Lang's personal status in the rock circle will be elevated once again.

Empoli, who had a prejudice against the Rolling Stones before the show, was now completely won over. As a jazz teacher, her understanding of the arrangement of the Rolling Stones song just now was beyond many of her colleagues present.

Although it is folk rock, in a big way, this song is still in the category of blues, and the origin of jazz is also blues. So her understanding of the chords and arrangement of this song is much deeper than other people who hear this song for the first time.

She has even started to think about her own video for this episode, whether to use this song for analysis.

If she knew the meaning of the lyrics, she would definitely give Bian Lang a higher evaluation. After all, the source of blues is the "feer the holler" and "work song" of black Americans.

Isn’t “Heart-wrenching Jokes and Long Daydreams” also a “labor song” that makes people happy in the midst of hardship? It’s just that times have changed. The term “working people” is no longer a term exclusively for manual laborers. Social animals who do all kinds of mental labor are not necessarily more relaxed than manual laborers.

The function of this "labor song" has also risen from unifying the pace and rhythm of felling trees and farming to the level of venting and dispelling emotions. Gradually, many people have forgotten its origin...

But from this point of view, Bian Lang, who is possessed by Wan Qing, is more professional than many foreign musicians. After all, the suffering of ordinary people is the main theme of Wan Qing's songs!

……

After hearing what Silva said, Thor didn't want to wait until the end to find Olaf, and wanted Regman to take him backstage. He and Olaf were familiar with each other, but today was a special show organized by DGM, and it was not convenient without someone like Regman to take him.

But there was no way Regman would let this stubborn old man have his way: "Can't you just watch it first before leaving? This is the Rolling Stones..."

Thor thought about it and realized that an hour or two wouldn't make a difference, but he still had to find a sense of presence somewhere else: "Regman, your mistake has caused me to miss half of the show. The next one..."

Before he could finish his words, Silva in front of him interrupted: "Thor, can you be quiet for a moment? I can arrange all the performances of the Rolling Stones in Europe as long as you have time and are willing to go!"

After hearing this, Thor shut up in disappointment.

At this moment, Bian Lang got down from the high stool and gave Dayong a look, and then the rhythm of the drum set began to sound on the stage. It sounded like an improvisation for practice, and the fans guessed what Bian Lang was going to do.

In this case, it is time to introduce the band members. It just so happens that the arrangement of this song allows all the musicians to have a longer appearance time, so introducing the musicians now will have the best effect.

Sure enough, after all the musicians started moving, Bian Lang took the microphone and started calling out their names: "Drummer Chen Shaoyong..." When Dayong was called, he played the drums at a speed of over 200 BPM, which caused the fans in the audience to whistle continuously.

Next up were Dili and Strauss. Both guitarists had their own highlights today, and they were definitely the second C position besides Bian Lang. In China, of course, the gender is dominant, and Strauss, who has a more attractive appearance, will be more popular on stage.

But after watching today's show, it was clear that Dili, who had a stronger buzz cut, was more popular with the fans. When Dili's name was introduced, a female fan even threw her lace top to him.

When it was Bald Kai's turn, although the enthusiasm had declined, his stunning prelude solo of "Flying Bird" received much higher cheers than in the same occasions in China.

When Hua Yan came back, it was a big surprise for both Rolling Stones fans and Hua Yan herself. The keyboard arrangement of "Riders on the storm" would never fall out of the top 10 no matter how it was ranked in the original Earth.

There is nothing wrong with Hua Yan's condition today, so this not only makes fans recognize that there is a treasure musician in the Rolling Stones, but also gives Hua Yan a new understanding of his position in the band.

In the past, he had some thoughts of going solo, but now he has no such thoughts at all. Not to mention how much experience and fame he could gain from the Rolling Stones, how many fans and treatment he could gain. Just the opportunity to play Bian Lang's works is something other keyboard players would only dream of...

When Lunzi, Tao Xingyue and Liu Jiayun were introduced, the fans' enthusiasm remained unabated!

At this time, the two female violinists were also thinking a lot. Although Roundhouse Theater accepts all kinds of performances, the most popular performances here are classical music. When they visited earlier, they said, "When I was in the troupe, I dreamed of having the opportunity to perform in a foreign theater. If I continue to be in the troupe, I really don't know when I will have the chance..."

Today, the two of them are standing here to perform, and they were nominated by Ti Bian Lang in front of the audience. This treatment is equivalent to that of the principal cello in the original troupe.

The key is that through the Rolling Stones, the two of them may become more famous than the original leader of the group in a short period of time!

When they got to Hesheng, Bian Lang first introduced the foreign students who were invited temporarily, and then Liu Huzhou. Bian Lang even added a sentence to him: "He is also a folk singer signed by Rolling Stone!" With this special treatment, Liu Huzhou's heart was inevitably swelled.

After this round of introductions, the Rolling Stones returned to their normal playing rhythm, starting with "Fireworks" and all the way to "Shame"!
Although the lyrics have been translated, it has inspired many music fans to want to learn Chinese.

Especially when some die-hard fans of the Rolling Stones and Chinese music fans sang together: "I no longer reminisce, what past to reminisce, now I am not the same person as before... I have felt lonely, and been ignored by others, but I never felt anything, I have no place to hide...", the fans who could not sing along felt it was really uncomfortable to hold back.

The foreign fans in Ye Tao's fan group have learned a little bit from them, so their advantage among all the foreign music fans in the audience will be revealed.

In addition, they all had some Rolling Stones peripherals, so other foreign fans couldn't help but come over and talk to them: "Where did you learn your Chinese pronunciation? That's great!"

"Are the Rolling Stones merchandise you're wearing purchased from China? Why haven't we seen it in Europe?"

"Are you the Rolling Stones fan club? Are there any special activities? Is there anyone teaching Chinese..."

Foreigners will not miss the opportunity to show off in public: "Wave and the Rolling Stones showed up at our party a few days ago, and sang a song that would make British and American politicians jump up and curse!"

"We have a lot of Chinese people here, and they are all happy to teach us how to pronounce the Rolling Stones' Chinese songs!"

Ye Tao looked at the scene and estimated that it wouldn't be long before his small manor would be overcrowded when there was another party.

……

In the blink of an eye, more than three hours had passed in the Rolling Stones' concert, and it was time for the penultimate song of the performance.

After singing so many Chinese songs, foreign music fans feel that it is time to change the language.

Amidst all the wishes, the Rolling Stones lived up to expectations and brought out "Comfortably Numb". Although there was not the shocking sound, light and electricity coordination like last year's Imperial Square, as soon as Bian Lang said "Hello. Is there anybody in there?", the fans who had heard the song couldn't help but get goosebumps all over the floor!
When the solo featuring the three guitarists of the Rolling Stones came out, Thor would have rushed over to grab the guitar if Regman hadn't stopped him: "Regman, why didn't you tell me that the Rolling Stones had this kind of work?"

"Thor, it's you who don't want to believe what I say! When I told you about the Rolling Stones before, think about what your attitude was?" Regman was now talking nonsense in a serious tone.

Thor himself certainly couldn't remember it anyway, and it's also true that he hadn't paid much attention to the song before.

"Thor, can you be quiet..." Silva couldn't help but speak again to stop the two old men from bickering. She first heard this song in a document that Elf brought her after Christmas last year.

After listening to it, she regretted not going to the live concert at the Imperial Square. Now that she has listened to the simplified version, she feels even more regretful. However, she knows that with the situation of the Rolling Stones' Berlin stop, she should have the opportunity to see a replica of the classic scene.

Although it was not as classic as it was at the time, when most people at the scene sang together: "I have become comfortably numb...", Bian Erlang still shed a few tears of excitement.

As time goes by, the number of Rolling Stones' works increases and their fame grows, and such scenes of full-scale chorus singing of classics will only become more and more frequent.

Thinking about the god-level performances of various bands on the original Earth, Bian Lang really wanted to immediately take out all the top 100 rock songs in the world and release 10 albums, and after a year of fermentation, hold super concerts all over the world.

But it's just a thought. You have to eat one bite at a time and release songs one by one. If too many hits are released at once, fans will have more ideas.

There were very few music fans present who had not heard this song, such as Sharma and Empoli. Faced with such a scene, they just felt that they were really ignorant.

Sharma increasingly feels that CAA is daydreaming. Given the quality of the Stones' songs and the level of their live performances, is it really possible for them to use public opinion to discredit the Stones?

As for Empoli, they were wondering why a band of the quality of the Rolling Stones would appear in China? The key point was why DGM would use such means to promote the band?

In her opinion, for a band with solid works and no performance problems during live performances, DGM could just go nuclear. Why would they have to resort to the method of finding a music blogger for a soft landing?

In fact, DGM doesn’t want to? Of course they do!

However, the Rolling Stones have no plans for an English album, and the new English songs to be performed on this tour do not have official studio versions. Although the tour has just begun, the scale of this tour is not large.

The average number of tickets sold per show is around 10,000. If they really launch an overwhelming publicity campaign, whether it is cost-effective or not is another matter. By the time the fans have no tickets or new albums to buy, DGM will be criticized to death.

The key point is that they don't want to urge Bian Lang. After all, for a musician like Bian Lang who can lead them to show off and make a lot of money, any company that imposes restrictions on him is just asking for trouble!

Therefore, it is more reasonable to follow this treasure band route at present. When the Grammy results come out in November, whether the Rolling Stones take the throne directly or wait for the next session as runners-up, the operation will no longer be the same as it is now.

Kyle also sighed: "Adams, if you trust me, I will go and talk to Wave. Given the maturity of this band, I don't believe that they can't produce an English album within this year!

In terms of production, even if we use money to buy time, it shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

"Forget it, Kyle. Just let Wave do what he wants. If all the music styles he's showing can make an album... If you were Wave, what would you choose for the first album? Would you release a hodgepodge?"

Adams's words immediately confused Kyle, as he had never thought about this question. But this was not something Adams came up with, as he had used similar words to ask Olaf for his opinion, and this was what Olaf said to him.

Kyle finally nodded seriously and replied, "That's indeed the problem. Also, some of the lyrics of the Rolling Stones are quite extreme. If they really become popular suddenly, I'm worried that it will cause some bad things!"

Adams certainly knew what Kyle was referring to. The argument that rock music harms the mental health of teenagers is not unique to China. There are people everywhere who use rock music as a shield to cover up the real situation behind some events.

"It all depends on luck. I hope God will always be on the side of the Rolling Stones..."

The two chatted casually for a while, and after singing "Comfortably Numb", Bian Lang said the title of the last song into the microphone: "Rock 'n' Roll Suicide..."

Adams and Kyle gasped when they heard the song title, then looked at each other. They were probably thinking, "Can Wave read minds?"
