In order to prevent someone from not being able to read the small print on the screen, he simply summarized the private message:
"The band that was originally supposed to perform was absent due to some reasons, so we were invited to perform as guests since we are very popular on the Internet now."
In addition, GDM's lead singer Iwasawa also pushed them, otherwise [CryCHIC], a small band with nothing, would not be likely to become the special guests of such a big stage even if they were on the hot search for two or three days.
Instead of getting excited by the news, Shiina Riki frowned and said in astonishment, "Now? It's been a few days, and the heat of that incident hasn't subsided yet..."
"It was almost dying down, but didn't I send a notice yesterday that an original song was being produced? As a result, Iwazawa's lead singer was kind enough to repost it, and now the heat has been rekindled. Many audiences and bands are looking forward to the day when "Haruhi Kage" will be released."
Ming Hai spread his hands and said helplessly: "I don't want to bring you unnecessary pressure, but there is no way. Sooner or later, I have to tell you about the invitation to the music festival, and once I tell you about it, I have to explain the cause and effect clearly... So why not finish the discussion now? There is still time to prepare mentally and discuss countermeasures."
"Well, no one said it was your problem..."
Putting down his arms that were circling his chest, Shiina Riki couldn't help but look at him strangely.
——This guy, from being a "behind-the-scenes staff member" at the beginning, is now becoming more and more like a band manager.
I don’t know if he kept a share of the kindergarten’s performance fees last time... Even if he is Xiangzi’s boyfriend, you can’t let him work for free every day, right?
"I don't mind the pressure. I've experienced it before when it was popular. I'll deal with it the same way if it happens again."
Nagasaki Motoyo pinched her fingers, frowned, and murmured with a heavy expression: "The problem now is that "Haruhi Shadow" has not been completed yet. Can we really perform on such a big stage? If we can only sing cover songs, it would be easier..."
Ming Hai shook his head, rejecting that chance of luck.
"The organizer gave us time to perform two songs, and hoped that one of them would be an original song and the other a cover song... It would be best if it was a cover of the song 'My Song' that was popular some time ago."
"This is too..." Su Shi pursed his lips, slightly dissatisfied.
"Is it for the sake of traffic and quality?" Ming Hai sighed, "After all, [CryCHIC] is just a new band that just debuted. They don't even have an original song. It's understandable that they have some restrictions when they want to perform on such a high level... Who knows if we will fail at the last minute?"
To be honest, the organizers who invited them as guests were very brave - weren't they afraid that these girls with little performance experience would be scared by the atmosphere of the entire venue and cause performance accidents after they went on stage?
The worldview of the thriving girl band is indeed amazing.
"Want to come?"
Unlike the others who fell silent with different expressions, Ruo Yemu remained expressionless and raised the most fundamental question in a simple and clear manner.
She seemed to feel no fear or pressure at all, and could handle any stage calmly; such a calm and straightforward attitude inadvertently eased the slightly solemn atmosphere in the living room.
"Of course I will! It would be a shame to let go of such a great performance opportunity, right?"
Soon she made up her mind, Toyokawa Shoko slammed the table, stood up and looked around with full energy: "Please rest assured, I will finish writing the song for Kasuga Shadow as soon as possible!"
"In the remaining month, let's aim for the music festival and start practicing intensively!"
Unfortunately, this time not only did no one respond to her call and encouragement, but a basin of cold water was poured directly on her.
"Xiangzi-chan, face reality."
“It’s like we just defeated the slime in the Novice Village, but our next opponent is the hero of the Final Demon King. We have never performed a live house before, but we have to perform on such a big stage in front of thousands of audiences…”
"Neither the experience points nor the skill points have been raised. Do you really think we can pass the level?"
Nagasaki Motoyo's voice was still gentle and sweet, but she used a flat and sharp tone to point out the cruelest reality to Toyokawa Shoko.
"In the worst case, we will be embarrassed in front of thousands of audiences, standing stiffly on the huge stage in a daze, unable to sing or play instruments, and then be kicked out by the organizers in tears. [CryCHIC] will also become the biggest laughing stock on the entire Internet..."
"How can you just say 'Okay, I'll be fine if I practice hard!' and agree to something so serious?"
"It's not easy, I just believe we can do it."
Toyokawa Shoko looked into her eyes without giving in, her tone calm and serious: "Of course, I am also afraid of the situation you mentioned. I am afraid that the skills and tacit understanding we have cultivated now will not be fully utilized on that stage with so many people... I am afraid that someone will lose confidence and give up music and quit the band."
"But, the goal of [CryCHIC] has never been to become a popular professional band with big-selling albums, right?"
She held her head high, her spirits high, and faced everyone's attention with dignity and confidence.
"Those gorgeous, handsome, professional and lively stages are not something we can create now. To use Su Shi's analogy, we didn't expect to defeat the devil in the first place."
"Because we are not heroes, we are just a bard! A bard who is willing to take risks to let the story in his heart resound in the Demon King's Castle!"
At this point, Toyokawa Shoko still clenched her fists with full enthusiasm, and her enthusiasm was not dampened at all by the cold water of reality.
Ming Hai couldn't help but look at Nagasaki Suyo.
After a moment of stunned silence, the "culprit"'s face gradually turned red with shame, and he seemed to cover half of his face with some regret.
——There’s nothing we can do about it, the effect of learning by osmosis is so powerful.
After spending a long time with the chuunibyou Xiaoxiang, even someone as mature and steady as her began to unconsciously show some chuunibyou tendencies when speaking.
For example, some demon king, some brave hero...
"Pfft, Chuunikoso..."
Noticing his uncontrollable laughter, Nagasaki Suyo glared at him quietly, trying to make him hide the too obvious teasing smile on his face, and her legs couldn't help but clamped together out of shame and rubbed against each other.
I don't know how many times they exchanged glances in private, but Toyokawa Shoko continued to speak passionately:
"To convey our voice to everyone - as long as we hold on to such a simple belief, whether it is a stage with ten, a hundred, or tens of thousands of people, there is only one thing we have to do, and it will not change."
Turning her gaze to Takamatsu Deng, Toyokawa Shoko smiled firmly and said word by word:
“That is to give our all in the performance and let the audience’s soul resonate with us… [CryCHIC], every performance is a cry from our heart.”
"Mr. Deng, if it were you, could you sing it?"
Gao Songdeng was slightly stunned. He never expected that she would suddenly point the finger at him.
But think about it, I am indeed the one who is most likely to have problems...
As a highly-anticipated lead singer, any mistake on her part could drag down everyone in the band.
The gray-haired girl lowered her head, silently staring at the promotional picture on the web page that showed a huge crowd and lively carnival. She could never imagine herself standing on such a stage and speaking to tens of thousands of audiences.
Or rather, just imagining that scene made her so scared that her internal organs were trembling, and she dared not look anyone in the eye...
"I... am very scared." She blurted out her inner worries unconsciously, "Being stared at by so many people, I will probably be too scared to sing, or even run away in the middle of the song..."
"..."
Toyokawa Shoko still looked at her, and her eyes did not dim because of this.
She knew that the girl in front of her had not finished speaking.
"——But, aren't we different now?"
Gao Songdeng raised his head slowly, and his bangs that were casting shadows on his face fell to the sides, revealing a pair of clear and straightforward eyes.
As if imitating someone, she clenched her fists tightly. Even though her breathing was trembling slightly and her voice was timid and weak, she still firmly told everyone her promise with all her strength:
"If everyone is around me, if I can hear everyone's voices... no matter which stage I'm on, no matter how many people I'm facing, I can sing it! No, I will definitely sing it!"
The bond of [CryCHIC] brought her endless courage and warmth.
She also wants everyone to know how wonderful and nostalgic CryCHIC is for Deng Takamatsu.
In that case, then give it your all, risk it all - and sing it out.
It was just singing, and it was easy for her now that she was no longer alone.
"lamp……"
"Well, since Deng-chan said so... let's give it a try."
"Yeah, it'll go well."
The icy atmosphere gradually turned into warm fragments in the smile, reflecting the bright and sunny moments of summer.
As her eyes swept over her companions, Toyokawa Shoko couldn't help but put her hand on her chest, revealing a satisfied and moved smile.
"I have always believed in Deng, and in everyone... As long as we stay by each other's side, we can overcome any difficulties and obstacles."
Then she nodded vigorously to Ming Hai.
"Mr. Narumi, agree to the organizer! Then starting today, we'll start preparing for the Summer Music Festival!"
-
Starting next week, to be exact.
Because Takamatsu Tomo and Shiina Riki are going back to their hometown to visit their relatives, and "Haruhi no Kage" has not yet been completed, Toyokawa Shoko simply gave everyone a seven-day holiday to practice on their own; if the situation is optimistic, after everyone gathers again, they can start practicing and playing the original song directly.
The training camp ended in a high-spirited atmosphere. Before the sun set, the six people returned to Ikebukuro Station and left in their respective directions to go home.
"Narumi-kun, can you come to my house tomorrow?"
Before parting, Toyokawa Shoko did not shy away from inviting Ming Hai: "I would like to consult your opinion on the matter of the song."
"sure."
Ming Hai, who had no plans for this summer vacation, had already decided to leave all his free time to his girlfriend, so naturally he agreed very readily.
However, he still had one question: "Just the two of us?"
Toyokawa Shoko looked calm and said, "No, Mu will come too."
"?"
Ruoye Mu tilted his head in confusion and blinked at her twice with his big eyes, as if to say - why did you two ask me to be a third wheel when you were dating at home?
Are you trying to create some disgusting scene in front of me?
"I'll explain it to you. Anyway, it's settled for now." Toyokawa Shoko winked at Wakaba Mutsu, smiled apologetically at Su Shi who seemed to be excluded, waved her hand and turned to leave, "Let's talk on LINE when we get back! Ming Hai-kun, Su Shi-san, please be careful on the road."
"You too, see you tomorrow."
Ming Hai didn't care. After saying goodbye, he turned around and gave Su Shi a wink.
"Come on, go home."
Carrying the heavy luggage, he took the lead.
"...Well, go home."
Coming back to his senses from a slight trance, Nagasaki Motoyo tapped his head, which was still heavy and dizzy due to lack of rest, and sighed silently.
Without saying anything more, I just followed his shadow and slowly caught up with him, dragging my suitcase.
the next morning.
After Nagasaki Suyo woke up, she finally confirmed one thing.
——It’s not that I didn’t get enough rest, but I actually caught a cold.
-
The background of this book does not involve the orthodox history of Bang Bang, so please don't worry too much about it. I actually skipped all the plots other than mygo and ignored them after getting the rewards...
Volume 142: Chapter Chapter Is this the traditional visiting event?
The curtains dimmed the morning light, and the dimly lit room was silent.
After taking her temperature for the third time, Nagasaki Suyo finally put down the thermometer, lay back on the bed listlessly, and stared at the ceiling with empty and distracted eyes.
"39 degrees..."
I never expected that the retribution for dragging Xiangzi into this water would come so quickly.
——My whole body was cold, my throat felt as if it was being scraped by a blunt knife, and even when I was lying down I felt as if the world was spinning.
When breathing became a torture, she finally experienced what it felt like to live a life worse than death.
"It's been a long time since I had a fever this high..."
Nagasaki Suyo closed her eyes tiredly, trying to dig out a few relatively clear fragments of memory from her dark and chaotic mind.
…I vaguely remember that my last name was Ichinose at that time.
After discovering that she had a high fever, her parents hurriedly asked for leave from the company. The two of them nervously surrounded her and asked about her health all day long, as if they were protecting a fragile treasure.
It was not until her fever subsided the next morning that they each took another day off and had a good rest.
But now, that small but warm room has disappeared, and the family that should have been warm and harmonious has been divided into two.
The morning light coming in through the floor-to-ceiling windows seemed to have lost all its warmth, leaving only helpless coldness spreading from all four corners of the wide room, trying to get into her hands and feet under the quilt.
Dreams are the continuation of reality, and reality is the end of dreams - some realities become memories and also become unreachable dreams.
Like a child forced to grow up, Nagasaki Suyo wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, exhaled a hot and trembling breath, and tried her best to accept the reality with a helpless but strong attitude.
"Anyway, try to take care of yourself first."
Time passes silently.
