Become the attraction package for the girls in the band

Xiangzi blinked and smiled and said, "But I think you are very suitable."

"Where is the right place?"

"It fits the positioning of our band very well, and you are very infectious."

"How does it fit in?" Liu Hao said unhappily. "Putting aside my identity, pronunciation, and singing skills, the fact that the lead singer of a beautiful girl band is a man completely gives up their advantages. It's neither fish nor fowl."

Xiangzi smiled and said, "He's quite unique, isn't he? The lead singer of a band that doesn't exist is so cool."

"That's right, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department likes it very much. Yes, yes, yes, that's very cool. Go on, we're listening."

"What about rhythm guitar?"

"If there's really no one else, I could fill this role... but I have neither the talent nor the looks, which completely defeats the purpose of forming a commercial band."

Liu Hao glared at Xiangzi and, with a shrill voice and the accent of a eunuch from a TV drama, raised his orchid finger and said, "Toyokawa Xiangzi, don't forget, we will sign a gambling agreement. If you don't make money, you will lose your head... You will be Xiaomu's slave for the rest of your life..."

"puff--"

"Hehehe——"

Liu Hao's funny tone made Xiangzi laugh with his hands covering his mouth, his beautiful eyes sparkling. Liu Hao herself couldn't hold it back and laughed like Xiangzi.

But there are different meanings in the smiles of the two people.

Xiangzi was happy and shy. This kind of gambling agreement had no binding force at all. Moreover, even if he failed, it would be a happy thing for the rest of his life...

Liu Hao's smile was not as hearty as before. He shamelessly said that he was playing two-timing. Even though he was really thinking about the girls, he was actually quite guilty in his heart.

When I was in elementary school, I was struggling to choose between Tsinghua University and Peking University. It was really a struggle. When I was in high school, I said I was struggling to choose between Tsinghua University and Peking University. That was basically a joke.

Perhaps these are not issues that need to be worried about, because what we really need to do is to set goals and study hard. When the college entrance examination results are released, you will find that the real choice has already been made in the process of your efforts or even giving up efforts.

That’s right, your university is not Tsinghua University, nor Peking University, but Binhai University!

The lights in LiveHouse dimmed, Liu Hao and Xiangzi stopped whispering, and after the host's introduction, today's band performance officially began.

Of course, Liu Hao and Xiangzi came here today to examine candidates for the future band, but most of the members participating in the performance are of average level and already have a fixed band, so the main purpose is to see the candidate recommended by Liu Hao to Xiangzi - bassist Yawata Kailing.

"It's amazing! I can clearly feel her methodical approach. Her playing is definitely at a professional level." After listening to a band's performance, Xiangzi stood on tiptoe and whispered in Liu Hao's ear, "Does a bassist like her really not have a regular band?"

Liu Hao didn't need to say anything, because what happened next explained Xiangzi's doubts.

One band left the stage, another band came on, but Hachiman Kailing remained on the stage.

Xiangzi muttered to himself in Liu Hao's ear, "Strange! Doesn't anyone else know this bassist is so talented? Why doesn't she have a regular band? Is she difficult to get along with or something else?"

At this time, one of the band members performing on the stage had a problem with the effects pedal, and the host was so nervous that he forgot the lyrics. Hachiman Kailing didn't even show a complaining expression. Without saying a word, he picked up the microphone and skillfully sang Bbox, his body moving with the rhythm. It can be said that he was quite handsome and eased the awkward atmosphere very well.

Xiangzi and Liu Hao looked at each other, nodded seriously and said, "I think Yawata Kailing is a very good bassist. If we can recruit a member like him, our band will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort."

"Really? I think so too. Whether it's business ability or appearance, it's simply tailor-made for your future band."

"Ah."

After Xiangzi responded, he suddenly thought of something and looked at Hachiman Kailing who was dancing on the stage. She had an outstanding figure. Even though she was wrapped in a tight leather jacket, one could clearly feel the rhythm of her plump breasts. Xiangzi looked at Liu Hao beside him. The boy was looking at the stage very attentively, as if he was cheering for Hachiman Kailing's wonderful performance.

Using his elbow to gently nudge Liu Hao's waist, Xiangzi narrowed his eyes and said, "Xiao Mu mentioned before that you were secretly looking at the other band members' figures. Could it be this Hachiman Kailing?"

"No." Liu Hao said decisively, "I looked at it openly. I just took a quick look."

"Oh, I take it back then." Xiangzi said seriously, "I will never let this Hachiman Kailing join our band."

Liu Hao responded: "Remember, it's forever!"

The two looked at each other seriously, and then couldn't help laughing.

As the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together." Even the elegant young lady Toyokawa Shoko has been influenced by Liu Hao's way of speaking. He is truly a sinful man.

Volume 137: Chapter Chapter Hachiman Kailing's Intuition

The following performances were lackluster. Liu Hao thought that the performance level of some bands might not be as good as his and Su Shi's band, or it was obvious that they were a whole band, and it was unethical to break up one of the members. As for those bands with strong performances, they were already well-known and had become an inseparable group, making them even more difficult to win over.

Therefore, the performance of the concert search is actually quite good, but from the perspective of recruiting members, only Hachiman Kailing has hope of being recruited.

During the canvassing session after the performance, Hachiman Kailing was still standing alone in the corner, looking at the noisy scene on the other side. She unscrewed the bottle cap with two fingers and drank most of the sports drink in one breath. The cool drink went down her throat into her stomach, relieving the feeling of powerlessness caused by the loss of physical strength, but also made her feel alienated from the lively scene of the concert.

If the lead singer is the face of a band, then the bass is the cornerstone of the band. Although the bassist's most noticeable presence is not on the stage but in various bass jokes, jokes aside, if a band has no bass, the performance effect can be said to be disastrous.

So the bassist's life is a bit miserable. He needs to have a high level of skill and must take on the responsibility of being the cornerstone of the band, but his presence is very low.

The guitarist can solo handsomely, the drummer's fiery look attracts attention, and the lead singer is the focus of the whole audience. As for the bassist? The bassist is doing hip-hop dance...

For this reason, the bassist is the one in the band who is most likely to become mentally unbalanced and have problems, so Hachiman Kailing can act as a bass mercenary among thirty bands.

For the same reason, the foundation of a truly powerful band is very stable and there is no need to recruit a bassist temporarily.

Hachiman Kailing was in an awkward position, neither too high nor too low.

Hai Ling's superb playing skills and pursuit of music enable her to meet the requirements of every supporting band, but it does not enable her to join a band of comparable level.

Even if Hailing joined a band of average level, she tried very hard to fit in, but her presence at this level itself was an invisible pressure. So although Hachiman Hailing worked for 30 bands, only 10 of them are still active. It is hard to say that the reason for the disbandment of many bands has nothing to do with her.

After finishing the rest of her drink, Hachiman Kailing looked at a band on the other side with serious expressions. She knew that their campaigning was very ineffective. Not to mention making money, they might not even be able to collect the registration fees. They would have to work for another month before they could participate in the next live.

It was a bit pitiful, but Hai Ling felt a bit envious.

It might sound a bit exaggerated, but she sincerely felt that being able to worry about her own band was a very happy thing.

"Great performance. I voted for you as the first band to perform, just like last time."

A familiar voice was heard. Hachiman Kailing turned around and recognized at a glance that it was an audience member she had some impression of, a somewhat strange man. He was accompanied by a female companion just like that day. She was equally beautiful and elegant, but her temperament was a little different.

"Thank you for your support," Hachiman Kailing said with considerable business acumen. "I will work even harder in the future to bring you even better performances."

"Well, we're all looking forward to it."

After finishing his words, Liu Hao did not leave this time. Instead, he asked directly and frankly, "Excuse me, Ms. Hachiman Hailing, as a Bess mercenary, what are your requirements for employment?"

"Oh?"

Hachiman Hailing crossed her arms and looked up and down at Liu Hao and the elegant Toyokawa Shoko beside him with interest. Since he approached her with a purpose and had already found out all about her, Hailing didn't find it strange.

"I don't have any requirements. Just confirm the time and payment with me in advance. If your band is good enough, I don't need any payment, just a share of the ticket sales."

"The compensation isn't a problem, and our band is definitely excellent," Toyokawa Shoko said. "But Ms. Hachiman, I'd like to hire you long-term. Is that possible?"

Hachiman Kailing raised her eyebrows: "How many months?"

"No, it's been several years." Toyokawa Shoko smiled slightly and said to the girl in front of her, "I hope you can become a part of our band, and we can shine on the stage together."

"Oh? One?"

Hachiman Kailing smiled self-deprecatingly. She didn't take the invitation seriously at the moment. She just put on her bass bag and said as she walked, "Then prove to me your sincerity."

Liu Hao and Xiangzi looked at each other and followed.

Then in the practice room of this LiveHouse, Toyokawa Shoko borrowed the keyboard here and performed a wonderful musical solo with Hachiman Kailing. Liu Hao also felt his musical soul burning on the side. If he was not afraid that his superb level would scare Hachiman Kailing, he would have borrowed a guitar to join in.

"For now, our band consists of just me, keyboardist Shoko Toyokawa, guitarist Mutsu Wakaba, who's a part-time composer and is just as talented as me, and backup guitarist Yanagi Yoshi. We're still recruiting other members... but I can promise that the other members are definitely worthy of such a team. Our goal from the beginning has been to debut in the mainstream as quickly as possible and become a truly commercial band. I think both you and I share this dream and the skills to match it. All we lack is an opportunity. Hachiman-san, what do you think?"

As Toyokawa Shoko spoke, she quickly wrote and drew on the paper. When she finished, she did not stop and put down the pen in her hand and handed the paper to Hachiman Kailing.

Hai Ling took the paper and was somewhat surprised to find that the paper contained the simple score of the first half of their impromptu solo. She looked up and saw Toyokawa Shoko's smile, which was as quiet and beautiful as the crescent moon. She had completely recognized the musical talent of the girl in front of her.

It is hard to deny that Hachiman Kailing was moved. If it weren't for her musical pursuits, she wouldn't be running around in different bands. Maybe she could also have her own band?

"So, your band hasn't been formed yet?"

Toyokawa Shoko nodded and said, "Yes, there's no need to hide this. It will take at least one or two months to confirm, maybe even later."

"So I still have a lot of time to think about it."

Hachiman Hailing took out her phone and said, "Leave me your contact information. If you have any requests, tell me in advance. I will definitely come over as long as I have time."

"Okay, I'll trouble you then." Xiangzi blinked, stretched out his hand and shook Hailing's, saying, "Welcome, Hachiman-san."

"Ah."

Hai Ling then shook hands with Liu Hao and exchanged contact information. For some reason, although the man didn't show anything, Hai Ling's woman's intuition told her that Liu Hao might be the real core of the band.

No reason, just intuition.

Volume 138: Chapter Chapter : Standing Up

At an open-air seat in a cafe in Ikebukuro, after coming out of LiveHouse and saying goodbye to Hachiman Kailing, Toyokawa Shoko and Yanagi Yoshi sat here, waiting for another person they had an appointment with.

Now that he had enough money, Xiangzi could finally calmly order a cup of black tea and enjoy the tea aroma. However, the warm and refreshing fragrance from Tan's mouth could not compare to the man opposite who was concentrating on writing something, and the bitterness of the tea could not completely dispel the sweetness in his heart.

I don’t know why, even though Liu Hao almost always wears the same style of clothes and his hairstyle has never changed, Xiangzi never gets tired of seeing the man’s serious look. Maybe he will never get tired of seeing it in his entire life.

"Yaman-san, who looks cool, is surprisingly easy to talk to, and he's only in his first year of high school. It's true you can't judge a person by appearance... What are you writing?"

Xiangzi couldn't hold back his curiosity after all, so he walked over and sat next to Liu Hao. He found that Liu Hao had been continuing to write the music score she had just shown to Hachiman Kailing. Xiangzi wrote the first half of their solo music, and Liu Hao wrote the second half solely based on her memory.

You have to know that even the person himself may not be able to perfectly reproduce this kind of improvisation, and it is even more difficult for the audience to restore it.

"How is it? Are there any mistakes?"

Liu Hao, like a student who had finished his homework, pushed the test paper in front of Xiangzi. Xiangzi quickly glanced through it and slightly revised a few places: "Except for these three, there are no problems with the others."

"There are still three things wrong..."

Liu Hao sighed somewhat disappointedly. Originally, he was confident that he could get full marks, but it seemed that his staged learning results were just average. The main reason was that he wasted too much time on dealing with relationships between men and women. He could only spare a few hours every day to study music theory. In order to attend the class the next day, he could only study until one o'clock in the morning, which was still not enough.

It turns out that women will only affect your learning progress. Only when you have no women in your mind can you study well.

"You're still sighing?" Xiangzi glanced at Liu Hao unhappily at his reaction. The girl said, "Do you know how great you are already? If I hadn't been by your side all this time, I wouldn't have believed you'd only been studying music theory for less than a month."

"Diligence can make up for lack of talent. I am still somewhat confident in my studies."

"If this is considered clumsy, then there are few talented people in the world."

"You're so kind, so kind." Liu Hao waved his hand modestly, still feeling a little proud, so he asked the same question again, "How does it compare to you?"

Xiangzi blinked and said, "I guess I'm not wrong."

"...I'm sorry, I'm arrogant again."

"You're really trying to compete with me." Xiangzi stretched out his white little hand and affectionately tapped Liu Hao's forehead. "I've studied music for over ten years, and you've only studied for a month and you want to compete with me? That's pure arrogance."

"It's mainly because you and Xiaomu taught me well."

Liu Hao was modest again, turning the topic to business. "We've already found a bassist, so that leaves us with the lead singer, rhythm guitarist, and drummer. These are all very important members of the band, and it's going to be very difficult to choose one who meets the requirements and is also a good fit."

"Yes, I've actually been paying attention to it, especially the choice of lead singer."

Xiangzi opened YouTube on her phone and showed Liu Hao her follow list. "My ideal candidate is a YouTube singer with basic singing skills and a lot of traffic. However, those with a lot of fans are impossible to hire, and those with fewer fans usually have to choose between talent and appearance. Currently, only these few are acceptable... But if we want to convince them, we need to at least have a rough outline of the band in place."

"I think the idea is fine, but it's too difficult to discover new people from scratch... Huh?"

While browsing Xiangzi's follow list, Liu Hao unexpectedly found a familiar person, so he clicked on it and asked, "Isn't this Miss Miao Mou a beauty blogger?"

"Her? Miao Meng is indeed a beauty blogger, but she has shown some musical talent and bears some resemblance to Deng..." Xiangzi pursed his lips and lowered his voice for a moment. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked Liu Hao with narrowed eyes, "How do you know her? I don't think you follow beauty bloggers."

Liu Hao sighed and said, "It must have been love at first sight."

Xiangzi smiled and said, "Then I must invite her to join the band. I wish you two a long and happy life together."

"Well, I hope you can come and play the piano for me when she and I have our wedding. It doesn't have to be anything extravagant, just the classic piece 'Wedding in a Dream' will do."

"Should we let Su Shi be the emcee?"

"No need, Xiao Mu can be the bridesmaid."

Finally, Xiangzi couldn't help himself and glared at Liu Hao with a charming look, saying coquettishly, "You are so rude."

Liu Hao said with a smile: "Then why are you still cooperating with me and being so dishonest?"

"Because it's you." Xiangzi smiled, his beautiful amber eyes filled with moving waves. The girl said as a matter of course, "No matter what you say, I will cooperate with you without hesitation."

After hearing such touching words, Liu Hao couldn't help but hold Xiangzi's soft and delicate hand, but said:

"Even if I really marry Miao Meng?"

"Then I will... bite you to death!"

Liu Hao looked at the girl's beautiful, moist, and delicate cherry lips, and suddenly had a lustful thought in his heart. He had already heard such touching love words, but he still wanted to see someone as cute as Xiangzi. It can only be said that men's bad taste is really too much.

"Ahem... then I can't give you the opportunity to commit a crime."

Liu Hao bit his tongue, calmed down, and briefly described how he and Miao Meng met. Then he said, "It suddenly occurred to me. Didn't you say that Sumimi's Sanjiao Chuhua was your childhood friend? She can be a guitarist and lead singer. She's a popular idol with a lot of traffic. Isn't she the perfect choice?"

Xiangzi's face still had the lingering blush of shyness. He glared at Liu Hao and said, "How can it be perfect? ​​I can't afford to leave a promising and popular idol behind and start over in our band with an uncertain future."

"Just ask, maybe she'll be willing."

Xiangzi shook his head and said, "I don't want to. Chuhua finally debuted as an idol, and I don't want her future to be affected by me."
