Chapter 84: The team is going to disband after three days?
“How do you overcome your fear of live performances?”
At the dining table in Lin Yi's house, Nagasaki Suyo put down her chopsticks. This was the first time that Lin Yi asked her a serious question, and she had to answer it properly.
"Yes, that's right. The guitarist of our new band is quite timid. He can't let go when there are other people around and can't display his normal strength. Su Shi, do you have any good ideas?"
Lin Yi is a little anxious now.
Xiaozhi and RUPA have come to our house today. Deng is still okay, but if we don’t help Yili overcome the difficulties, they will probably run away when the Live is over.
The Galaxy Battleship crashed right after it was formed... Never do that!
Listening to Lin Yi's description, Su Shi couldn't help but think of an old friend - her old teammate Gao Songdeng.
Deng also couldn't sing at first when she was in Crychic. Later, they went to KTV as a group to sing, and Xiangzi had a private chat with Deng and solved the problem.
But... Deng is the lead singer, and Lin Yi was talking about the guitarist. The lead singer needs to sing on the stage, while the guitarist only needs to play in a dark corner. The nature of the two is very different, but the principles are always the same.
Su Shi gently stirred her fingers and suggested: "How about going to the street live?"
"Being alone on the street, facing all kinds of passers-by and audiences at close range, this kind of scene is more challenging than a formal live performance, right?"
Lin Yi listened to Su Shi's suggestion and imagined the corresponding scene, and couldn't help but worry for Yili.
Letting an extreme socially anxious person like Yili live on the street is like pouring a basin of water on a cement road at 50 or 60 degrees. It will evaporate in a few minutes.
However, Lin Yi felt that if Yili’s personal wishes were not taken into consideration, Su Shi’s suggestion was still very reasonable.
The training program he originally set for Yili was to perform alone in front of the band, and the street live solo was like the final advanced project.
Lin Yi nodded and said: "I understand, thank you Su Shi for your advice."
He planned to think about it again and ask other people for advice. If there was no better way, this would probably be the only way.
"I'm glad I can help you."
Su Shi smiled, picked up the chopsticks again, and asked curiously: "Lin Yi, has your agency's second band been formed? Who are the members?"
Who? Your two old teammates!
Lin Yi felt inexplicably funny in his heart. It was okay for Xiangzi, but Su Shi had no idea that Deng and Lixi had formed a new band!
Lin Yi kept a tense expression and said, "It was just formed a few days ago. As for the members... it's still confidential at the moment. You should be able to see relevant news in a while."
Su Shi puffed his lips in dissatisfaction, turned his grief and anger into appetite, picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of braised pork elbow.
Lin Yi looked at Su Shi who was concentrating on eating, and always felt that she seemed a little fatter than when he first saw her.
Out of respect and courtesy for women, Lin Yi kept this question to himself with high emotional intelligence.
……
At night, Lin Yi lay in the warm and comfortable bed and chatted with Tao Xiang. They were not just chatting, but talking about the issues at hand.
[Momoka: Street Live is a good choice, but it's probably not feasible for one person to do it alone. You'd better find a teammate for her.]
Lin Yi looked at Tao Xiang's opinion, paused and thought for a moment, then tapped his thumb on the phone screen.
【Lin Yi: How about letting Deng and Yili go together? 】
Although Deng’s performance is better than Yili’s, it still requires practice.
If we don't train them to a qualified level, what will happen if Xiaozhi and RUPA find an excuse to run away?
Just when Lin Yi was feeling complacent about his decision, Tao Xiang on the other side of the chat box gave a different opinion.
[Momoka: Deng can't do that. If there is a lead singer in the street live, the attention will be on the lead singer, but if there is no lead singer, the attention will be on the guitarist. Let Liang practice with Ichiri for a few days. She is strong and plays the bass, so it doesn't matter if she is absent for a short time.]
Let Liang go and accompany Yili?
Lin Yi frowned at the sudden turn, but soon understood Tao Xiang's good intentions.
As an instrument with the lowest presence but high importance, bass is perfect for use as an auxiliary and accompaniment.
As for why I chose Liang instead of RUPA - finding teammates is to relieve the pressure on Ichiri, not to increase it. Ichiri is more familiar with Liang, so I chose her.
【Lin Yi: Okay, I’ll talk to Liang tomorrow. 】
[Lin Yi: By the way, Taoxiang, how was your cram school class today? Did you listen carefully? ]
After deciding on the countermeasures for Yili, Lin Yi began to torture Taoxiang.
Because before leaving tonight, he noticed that Momoka and Nina were discussing music with such high spirits and energy that it didn't look like they had just had a day of classes at all!
Lin Yi seriously suspected that Taoxiang was slacking off in class.
One second, two seconds, half a minute... Taoxiang still didn't reply to the message.
Is this the beginning of playing dead? Or is it a confession?
Lin Yi smiled sinisterly and threw his phone aside.
As an old man, he has many ways to deal with bad kids like this who don't study hard.
……
The next day, in the afternoon, in the office.
Liang, who was wearing a blue-black slim velvet jacket, heard Lin Yi's request and stretched out her white hand without hesitation.
“Is there any performance fee?”
In addition to the basic salary every month, Liang now also receives a share of the sales of peripheral products and CDs, so he is actually not as short of money as before.
But some things stick with you for life, becoming part of your lifestyle habits and instincts, and you can’t quit them.
Performance fee? Lin Yi's eyes lit up.
The band is no longer the low-profile group it was when it first debuted, and is now a rising star in the industry with a certain status.
If they go out to participate in any activities or perform in any live shows, they have to charge an appearance fee!
Street Live is also Live!
If Liang hadn't mentioned it, it would have been impossible for Lin Yi to pay the performance fee. After all, they were from the same agency, just in different bands, and they had different preferences.
But now that Liang has taken the initiative to bring it up, the system has no reason to refuse!
Lin Yi did not hesitate and said generously: "Yes, of course, there are not only performance fees, but also teaching fees! It is definitely in line with Liang's current worth!"
A hint of surprise flashed across Liang Lengyan's cool face. Obviously, she didn't expect Lin Yi to agree.
It seems that this mission is really important, so we need to take it seriously.
We can’t let Lin Yi’s newcomers down, nor can we let Lin Yi down!
"Don't worry, I promise to complete the mission!"
Ryo said seriously.
……
As the night grew deeper, the employees of Nebula Office had already left work, and the girls who had finished their band performance also packed up their things and prepared to leave.
But the lights in one practice room were still on.
At this time, a round of ensemble had just ended.
Xiaozhi took his hands off the keyboard and looked up at Deng and Yili beside him.
She promised Lin Yi yesterday that she would at least wait until the end of the first Live, but even though she agreed, the dissatisfaction in her heart would not decrease, but would only continue to accumulate.
Especially since she had found Lin Yi yesterday before the practice started, and so far they have been practicing for two days. However, the progress compared to before is so small that it can be ignored.
Xiaozhi suppressed the urge to attack and calmly pointed out the problems in the practice just now.
"Deng, you missed the beat again when you were singing the first chorus. You don't have to sing so hard during practice, but at least the rhythm has to match."
Deng pursed his lips and lowered his head slightly: "I understand."
"One mile..."
When Xiaozhi called Yili, Yili stood up instantly as if she had been electrocuted. The pressure Xiaozhi gave her was greater than that of Lixi.
"When you repeated the second round just now, you played several similar parts wrongly... and you also played them wrong in several places. You should pay attention to these low-level mistakes."
"Yes……"
Yili lowered his head and spoke in a weak voice like a mosquito.
Xiaozhi sighed deeply in her heart, feeling extremely complicated. She had said similar words many times, and she didn't know if it would be useful this time.
She paused for a few seconds, adjusted her mood, and spoke.
"Rest for two minutes, we'll practice again later."
Deng didn't say much, just pursed his lips again, and Yili was like a student who was kept out of class by the teacher, and he looked visibly lost.
Li Xi, who had been watching with his arms folded across his chest, finally couldn't help it and stood up from behind the drum set.
"I say, it's getting late now, shouldn't we wrap up? The lights...we have to go to school tomorrow!"
Lixi's tone was not very good. She had tolerated this keyboard player for a long time. She even felt that Xiaozhi was more annoying than Xiangzi in the past.
Although he was the last one to join the band, he always wanted to dominate everything in the band.
You have a sour face all day long and you look down on Deng and Yili. Is it unfair for you to be teammates with them?
As the boss, Lin Yi didn't say much. He was full of encouragement and trust. You, an employee, have so many opinions. How can the gap between people's vision be so big?
The atmosphere in the practice room was very depressing, but no one could have anticipated Li Xi's outburst.
"Taki-chan! I'm fine!"
Deng felt that he smelled a familiar scent and hurriedly called out to Li Xi.
Rupa also spoke up to dissuade his friend: "Xiaozhi, it's really late now, let's stop here today."
Under normal circumstances, RUPA’s dissuasion would have been effective.
But today, Xiaozhi, who had been accumulating dissatisfaction for four consecutive days, has turned into a powder keg and was ignited by the flame named Lixi.
There was a sting in Xiaozhi's calm voice: "If Li Xi feels tired, just go home first. It won't be a problem if you practice less for a while."
Lixi walked out from behind the drum set. His originally charming purple eyes and teardrop mole now looked extremely aggressive and intimidating.
"What do you mean?"
"what do you mean?"
Xiaozhi was not afraid at all and confronted Lixi head-on.
"The band's strength is not good enough. They even make mistakes in many basic parts. Don't they need to practice?!"
Seeing that Xiaozhi was still refutatng with confidence, Li Xi raised his eyebrows, anger surged, and his pair of delicate drooping eyes looked even more ferocious.
Lixi's voice rose two degrees again.
"Are you saying that Tomo and Ichiri aren't trying hard enough?!!"
Deng felt his breathing stagnate for a moment and clenched his sleeves.
"Does Lixi mean that no matter how you perform, as long as you work hard, it's enough?"
Xiaozhi didn't dodge and looked at Lixi.
Deng opened his mouth silently, and after two seconds he finally squeezed out the words: "Taki-chan! Tomo-chan! Stop arguing, let's sit down and talk."
As for Ichiri, he was still standing there, but he was almost unconscious.
She was incapable of participating in a dispute between powerful men like Riki and Satoshi, and she was already doing her best just by standing by.
This time, Li Xi did not follow the light, but subconsciously protected her behind him.
Li Xi said coldly: "Fight? Has this guy wanted to fight since the first day he came? If you are unhappy, just say it directly. There is no need to pretend to be a good person."
Xiaozhi closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, not to admit defeat or admit his mistake, but to organize his thoughts.
When she argues, she never expresses her emotions impulsively; she only states unshakable objective facts.
Xiaozhi opened his eyes and looked at Lixi calmly.
She said, "Lixi, we are a professional band, right? We are a professional band that has signed a contract with an agency, receives a salary every month, and enjoys various benefits, right?"
"Do you think Deng and Yili are up to standard now? Are they at a professional level?"
Xiaozhi dragged the topic from feelings to reality, and the temperature in the practice room seemed to drop.
