Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 875 European fans begin to make wishes
How could Bian Lang, who was already doing research on musicians on the Blue Water Planet, not know Cigar's name? He just couldn't quite match any of the names to the corresponding ones.

Bian Lang immediately reached out and shook Cigar's hand, then said with a smile: "Let's have a few more drinks tonight, Rolling Stone will pay for it."

"Thank you! I am more interested in your work than the wine. Listening to your song "Forever Young" brings me back to the old days..."

Bian Lang didn't know exactly which time period Cigar was referring to, but he could roughly guess what he wanted: "Tonight doesn't seem to be a good time to talk about this. We can arrange a time later to sit down and talk."

Bian Lang wasn't really refusing, it's just that tonight isn't really a suitable time to talk about this.

But Cigar didn't stop talking. He drank a glass with Bian Lang and said, "Maybe my idea came a little suddenly. I also know that you have other works in production. But Hatter and Panama are too young compared to me. They still have a lot of time, and I may go to see God at any time! I have an unfinished album..."

Bian Lang couldn't say if this was just taking advantage of his age, but Cigar was indeed at an age where he might die someday. After listening to Cigar's story, Bian Lang was quite interested. It had nothing to do with Cigar's age, but he was just very curious about the situation of the songs before this unfinished album, which made Cigar insist on not releasing it until he could complete it.

And the demos his producer left behind...

Cigar's expression was not relaxed, and he was even a little nervous. Bian Lang brought him into his perspective, and he thought that he had said this many times during the years when he was his best partner.

Every time he was full of hope, but every time he returned disappointed... Maybe now, Cigar needs a lot of courage every time he says this. Because he is afraid, afraid of being disappointed again. He is afraid that his spirit will eventually collapse in this disappointment again and again!
Just like every treatment process after Bian Lang was diagnosed with leukemia in his previous life, each time he held on to hope for life, but the result each time pushed him one step closer to death.

So Bian Lang just thought about it for a moment, and then replied solemnly: "Then please take the time to send me the album and demo, and I will give you a reply after listening to them." Bian Lang was also happy to fulfill Cigar's wish, but he didn't know whether Dylan's songs or his other reserves could help Cigar fill in the missing parts of this album.

Cigar's tense expression relaxed a little after hearing this. "Please forgive my stubbornness. Thank you, Wave! CAA also caused me a lot of trouble both openly and secretly, but I did not give in. If you need some experience in this area, I can tell you without reservation."

Hearing this, Lang over there became even more interested.

Through the various information DGM gave him during this period, he learned that CAA's actions outside the United States are relatively restrained, but once they are on American soil, their methods are much dirtier.

Cigar is also a senior who has won a Grammy. Bian Lang does not need to master the experience of dealing with CAA himself, but it is necessary for Evelyn.

"Thank you very much. I will ask my agent to come to your house for advice. You can enjoy your whiskey for the rest of the night..."

Cigar raised his glass: "Compared to whiskey, I am more looking forward to your impromptu performance when you are half drunk and half awake!"

"It will happen!" This is a sure thing.

When a group of people playing in a band get drunk, how can they not play some improvisation?

Just as she finished speaking, Strauss, a local, came on stage. After hanging up her guitar, she shouted to Thorin, "Thorin! You should still be able to sing, right?"

Thorin, whose face was already red from drinking, immediately stood up and called the other members of the Magnet Band to go on stage.

As soon as he came on stage, he didn't bother to tune the strings first, but picked up the microphone and said, "Wave! I may have drunk a little too much, but what I am about to say is all from the heart! Thank you for letting Strauss carry on the musical dream of all of us. Seeing her so radiant now, all of us in the band are very grateful!"

Of course, thank you for the song you gave my daughter. Although she doesn't understand it now, I think this gift will make her life a little different when she grows up! I want to sing a Rolling Stones song to pay tribute to them..."

When the prelude of "24 Little Things Rock Party" sounded, Bian Lang really felt that he and the Rolling Stones already had a very good fan base in Europe. Even if Solin and the others got the information from "Summer of the Band", they only heard this song for a few days. No matter what the reason was, Bian Lang thought it was very cool to arrange this song in such a short period of time!
"Here is a room full of cool bands, you want to please come in..." As Thorin on the stage spoke, the atmosphere in the bar suddenly became more and more lively.

Yiwo didn't pay much attention to "Summer of the Band". He only knew that the Rolling Stones sang this song at the previous stop, which was only a few days away. Judging from the current state of the Magnet Band, they must have practiced a lot.

"Is this the charm of the Rolling Stones? Phimos, I heard that this band once opened for you?"

Phimos took a sip of whiskey and said, "Yes, but that was also their last time on the big stage. After that, Strauss left with the Rolling Stones."

"Pity!"

"There's nothing to regret. Thorin just made the most suitable choice for his life at that time. Can't they still go on stage and play music now? By the way, Ivo, do you know something about the Rolling Stones in China?" This time, Femos didn't argue with Ivo anymore.

"Is there anything I can do?" Yivo stopped arguing with him.

"Let's listen to the song first, and talk after it's over..." After saying that, Femos raised his head and pointed in the direction of Cigar.

After the song ended, Thorin and his band were not surprised to be called by the fans to sing their band's old songs. Looking at the smiles on their faces, Bian Lang suddenly remembered the time when their band was just formed on the original Earth.

There is no decent performance venue, just hanging out in various small underground venues in BJ.

Later, they often performed at the Baochao Warehouse, which was a small place, but many regular customers knew their band. Once, Fu Shark came to play and wanted to improvise on stage, but was booed by the fans, who told her not to waste their time.

Later, when they were drinking, Fu Shark pointed at Bian Lang and teased, "Are you guys a community band in Dongcheng District or something? The fans are so protective of you..."

Thinking about the scene at that time, it is quite appropriate to say that Magnet is a community band here. The meaning of music has become more and more different after it has been integrated into the daily life of ordinary music fans. Perhaps, in Baggins, there are always one or two people every night, with different moods, waiting for the salvation or comfort of music.

As the atmosphere became more and more lively, the scene entered a real improvisation period. Dili and Bob replaced Strauss and Solin, and started to play the piano.

Not long after, Bian Lang also joined in. The two of them were interacting with each other, and the DGM staff in the audience all felt that the cocktail party prepared by Adams before was far inferior to this one, and it did not suit the taste of a rock band at all.

The director who had been following Hingston without showing his face suddenly said, "This is the state I think rock musicians should be in! The Rolling Stones' live performance is great, but I prefer this casual atmosphere!"

"How's it going, Carol? You said you wanted to secretly watch the Rolling Stones live before making a decision. Is there any result now?"

"To be honest, a big reason for my hesitation was that after reading the story outline, I felt that this couldn't be the work of a Chinese person!" Carol's tone was calm, as if he had already accepted the fact.

"why?"

"Because the crazy behavior that is in line with our Western rock rebellious spirit is completely different from the Chinese culture. If you are not a person who grew up under the influence of Western rock culture, you simply can't write such a fascinating script... A group of DJs went to the sea to fight against a government that was so old-fashioned that it couldn't accept jazz. This story really attracted me.

I really can’t wait to see the details of this script…”

"You mean you agreed?"

"Why not? For someone who can write "Free Bird" and "Forever Young", I'm sure there must be several different souls living inside Wave!"

The reason why Carol didn't reveal his identity before agreeing with Hingston was that he was afraid that if his judgment came to some bad results, it would be difficult to say no. If it was someone else's invitation, he wouldn't have so many concerns.

But this man is Bian Lang, and there's no telling when he might need to use the Rolling Stones' music in his film, so he doesn't want to offend Bian Lang with his straightforward and bad temper and cut off the possibility of future cooperation.

But now that he had no doubts in his mind, he really had no reason to refuse.

As a director, he knew very well what the core of the film was. The core was the music that Bian Lang was going to create for the film, so he was not the only one who could be the director. It was a musical comedy, and there were no big scenes. Ninety-nine percent of the shots were on a cargo ship. How difficult could it be to shoot?

The real difficulty is Shinston!

If he hesitated, the most likely thing would be like what Hingston said, after Bian Lang finished the script, he would directly ask DGM to help find a tool director. Besides, he was willing here, who knew whether Bian Lang would choose him.

"That meeting is over, I will take you to talk to him. To be honest, I have already started preparing for him. There are more than 30 original OSTs. This is an unprecedented challenge for me!" Looking at Shinston's excited expression, it feels like he is about to reach the peak of his career.

After saying this, Shinston left Carol behind and went to find Cigar to coordinate. He knew that if he invited singers to sing these OSTs in the name of Bian Lang, no one would refuse. But as a tool, he had to do some work in advance...

It's just that sentence. The more excited he is now, the more painful the work intensity will be in the future. But the gain is also unique in life!
The people on the stage with Bian Lang changed wave after wave, including musicians from Magnet, Hatter, Panama and the Rolling Stones. I don’t know how many new band combinations played on the stage tonight.

The most interesting thing is that the lead singers of the song "Fade To Black" by Feimosi, Yiwo and Bianlang sang three different styles of despair on the stage! Although only a series of unofficial low-quality videos were left, the fans of these three bands began to worship and make wishes collectively on the Internet the next day!
"Can this version be officially performed? The Rolling Stones still have three shows on their tour!"

"Moscow welcomes the Rolling Stones, Hatter, Panama..."

"Is this really a benefit that Welsh music fans can enjoy without spending any money? I regret it..."

"I've been listening to rock music since I was in my mother's womb, but I've never heard of such a confusing yet exciting relationship between these three bands."

“Wish Berlin, I hope to see these three lead singers on the same stage at Gendarmenmarkt!”

At this time, the three lead singers were all drunk and unconscious. It was not until Ibrahimovic came to find him in the afternoon that Bian Lang reluctantly climbed out of his bed in the hotel.

On the way to meet with Juventus fans, Bian Lang asked Ibrahimovic: "You didn't drink last night? Or is the metabolism of your top athletes exaggerated?"

"I only drank a little bit. I flew back to Dulin in the afternoon and had training later. Now I don't dare to drink during training!"

"What's the story?"

"You know I have a bad temper. I'm afraid I won't be able to control the beast in my body and do something irrational... Maybe you don't know that some black Italian players behave very exaggeratedly when they are drunk. I'm afraid I won't be able to resist fighting with them..."

Although what Ibrahimovic expressed sounded strange when put together, Bian Lang, who had seen a lot of ridiculous things happen to black players in his previous life, felt that the story behind this must be very exciting.

I guess it might be an R-rated scene where the balls get crushed...

When we arrived at the gathering place, it was only one o'clock in the afternoon. Yesterday, I saw these fans composed of Tiny Tina at the scene. There was no way, the old lady's zebra uniform was too eye-catching.

Just as Bian Lang came in, the leader ran over to shake hands with Bian Lang and said, "Wave, it's God's blessing to Juventus to have you in the team!"

Bian Lang’s answer brought the fans closer to him, like comrades-in-arms: “I just hope to keep Inter Milan under my feet forever!”

"Wave! You will be our friend forever!" Agnelli, who was not far away, heard this and walked towards Bian Lang with his arms outstretched.
