I really don't want to fight with gods

Chapter 5 Don't talk about love with me, I just want to make money!
After one song was sung, the members of the symphony orchestra had already applauded: "Yes, yes! It smells like that!"

"What song, what language, the taste of South America is very strong, very free and easy!"

"As for the sheet music, pull out the sheet music immediately, I have memorized the second half here, do you see it right..."

For an orchestra player of this level, listening to songs and reading notation is a basic skill, but what is more important is the cooperation of several musical instruments.

Hearing such a passionate repertoire, several performers who were just getting off work became interested.

Even the manager of the dance hall was called to listen to the ending: "Young man is very good, where did this song come from, do you want to stay with us and sing?"

Jing Xiaoqiang did not take it as his own: "There is definitely no copyright in a foreign movie, but I can match the score and instrumental music. I need a chance to practice singing. What kind of price do you think can be set? "

The manager looked at him: "Just like that? It's easy for someone to copy one trick."

Jing Xiaoqiang smiled subtly: "I must have other songs. Your price is right. I can keep adding new songs, so that the audience here will be satisfied."

The managers of dance halls these days are all capable people who go to sea to contract assets, and they are unambiguous: "Let's try it out tomorrow. Perform five songs for 50 yuan a day. If the effect is good, I will definitely not treat you badly."

In the 90s, when the monthly income was only a few hundred yuan, each ticket for the best public dance hall in Shanghai was two yuan.

From [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-] pm, going in and out for five hours, such a big ballroom can sell thousands of tickets!

Therefore, making money in the entertainment industry, even in an era of underdeveloped economy, is a matter of course.

Jing Xiaoqiang is also not greedy: "Okay, I just hope you can make the boat rise. At least I'll stay here until I can get into the drama school."

The musicians who basically graduated from the music college next to him immediately surrounded him with a smile and asked about the situation.

They are very familiar with the drama school.

The most important thing is to quickly get the score out.

Fortunately, South American dance music is often very simple in terms of instruments, a guitar, an accordion and a drum set are enough.

The manager looked around for a while with great interest, and confirmed that Jing Xiaoqiang was an expert, and even advanced 200 yuan to buy his outfit.

With such a little bit of rudeness, the manager of the dance hall who swarmed to poach the corner later failed to take Jing Xiaoqiang away.

Jing Xiaoqiang accepted the money unsurprisingly, handed over his ID card as collateral, and even simply lived in the utility room behind the dance hall.

Now he can save fifteen thousand a month.

That's 18 a year!

And there is another advantage of singing Latin dance music. The next day, Jing Xiaoqiang bought a floral shirt and beach pants, and went on stage with foam slippers!
The decoration style of Shanghai Ballroom in the 90s mostly followed the resplendent style of Paramount in the 30s.

Even if it's still very secretive in other places after it has been opened, I don't understand the details of Ala Shili Yangchang.

The bands are basically suits and leather shoes, and bow ties.

Fortunately, the symphony orchestra is all work clothes.

So it is obvious that Jing Xiaoqiang's tropical dress is super eye-catching. He also bought an eighty cent straw hat, and when he pinched the handle, he wore a denim hemmed edge, a Hawaiian concave top, and he wore it crookedly on the stage and came with a saucy bag. Over straw hat gesture.

The movements that were too greasy in another era, now performed under the age, immediately brought cheers!

When the electronic organ played the prelude, everyone was instantly surprised!

New song? !

Despite the ups and downs of dance halls all over the country these days, almost all dance music is imported. Except for "A Fire in Winter", the Chinese songs are the cover of "The Little Girl under the Street Lamp", and other dance music in foreign languages.

Over and over, there are so few songs Cha Cha Cha, Genghis Khan, screwdrivers and screwdrivers to get up in the middle of the night and set the floor...

Tired of listening.

So every new song will definitely get a chance to show, but very few can survive against these classics.

In particular, domestic professionals are still transforming from the original system to marketization. Where can they write such hedonistic songs? There is no one who can play!
The audience turned their heads and stared at the little red guy who looked like he was still fresh!
Not everyone can sing aloud in the presence of so many people. A lot of people who can sing and dance stand in front of the crowd tremble, unable to express anything.

But Jing Xiaoqiang was reborn for this kind of scene. He closed his eyes and opened his mouth to lengthen the tone. The smooth foreign language intonation made people get goosebumps all over!

Accompanied by his right hand holding the microphone, he simulated hugging the girl in front of his chest, and his left hand raised the flat end horizontally, swaying, circling, traversing, advancing and retreating...

Even the dance steps are new!
Everyone is buzzing!
In this kind of scene, the musicians are also very stateful. The accordion is long and romantic, the guitar provides a sense of dance music rhythm, and the drummer shakes his head.

The people who played the violin, trumpet, and saxophone all stood in a row, took sand hammers, tambourines, and triangles, and followed along...

If they used to play those songs that they already wanted to throw up every day, it was just to make money.

Today's brand-new tune will awaken their tired aesthetic of music in their hearts.

So it was easy for the audience to stand still and the lead singer in the stands performed!
Many people involuntarily followed Jing Xiaoqiang's movements, twisting and twisting, trying to figure out the characteristics of this new dance.

Even the dancers sitting in the surrounding cafes all stood up and their feet kept shaking!

Itchy, itchy feet!

The whole place is shaking!
In fact, this popular dance movement in northeastern Latin America is very simple and casual, and it is no different from the hugging movement of ordinary ballroom dancing.

The upper body is gently shaken from side to side, and the crotch shake is the essence. After watching it for a while, there will naturally be many lovers of physical coordination and superb dance twist first.

More than three minutes of dance music seemed to pass in an instant.

Jing Xiaoqiang, who skillfully made a curtain call and turned around and bowed to the band, immediately heard the enthusiastic shouting from the field: "One more time!"

"Sing it again!"

"Nice! It's great!"

It's a bit of a concert, Jing Xiaoqiang enjoyed listening to it for two seconds, then turned to ask the band for advice?
This kind of orchestra etiquette, which is rarely seen by singers in domestic dance halls, made the players of the symphony orchestra very comfortable.

Jing Xiaoqiang's debut in the Symphony Orchestra's dance hall was a sensation!
He sang it three times in a row, and before seven o'clock, he could only announce that he would sing again at ten o'clock in the evening, but the band just picked up the previous dance music, and the dance floor and the surrounding were all bouncing.

It is necessary to understand the feeling of a ray of fresh sunshine suddenly appearing from aesthetic fatigue.

Well, the whole band had to take turns to play this "Lambada" legato for three hours!

The hottest and best dance halls in Shanghai and Shanghai are actually all located on a few streets in the city center. Even in the era of no mobile phones, many people quickly came to invite friends and friends: "I heard that there is a new song! "

"Or a new dance step? Then you must see it!"

In fact, the dancers practiced new dance steps enthusiastically all night. Later, they looked at how to dance in front of them. Some of them were said to be very good dance teachers, and they also enthusiastically conveyed the characteristics of this obviously Latin dance step.

So I used to dance for a while, and some people would join the show to go to other houses, or they would join hands to press the road to the park if they saw each other, but today they all come and don’t leave!
The dance floor, which was supposed to be the most suitable for 400 people to dance, was quickly crowded, and people kept moving to the side to stick pork and stand in line.

Just to wait for the young singer to say that he will come to sing.

Even if many people are learning his lyrics, no one can speak Portuguese.

Just wait, the smell is simply too unforgettable.

In fact, Jing Xiaoqiang stepped down and went to the gym.

Because he used to be as sturdy as Ma Dongxi, he was too dissatisfied with his green body like a bean sprout.

The reason why I chose to come to Shanghai is also because there is no place to buy chicken breasts in that small [-]th-tier place, not to mention salmon, shrimp, crab, olive oil and the like.

For Jing Xiaoqiang, who has obtained an advanced combat personal training license at a New York fitness club, all skills are best built on a strong core strength.

This is the strength that everyone can muster for themselves.

Only when you are strong can you understand the kind of self-confidence that is strong in yourself.

He is not keen on how much money he makes to become famous, but he must be strong enough, maybe this is the reason why he lived to the end among the eighteen souls.

He hasn't started to formally adjust his diet, and he only gradually exercises himself on the lawn behind the dance hall, doing some freehand exercises.

The manager managed to find him, and after only a few seconds of watching, he confirmed that this young man with strict self-discipline had a great future: "It's almost time for you to take the stage, 180 yuan a night, which is currently the highest price in Shanghai."

Jing Xiaoqiang got up and smiled: "It's still five songs, but you will definitely think it's worth it."

The manager also smiled, the old arena, this kind of getting along is very comfortable.

In the end, neither he nor Jing Xiaoqiang expected that just after the ten o'clock song started, a girl jumped onto the stage desperately and wanted to dance together!

Therefore, the peach blossoms in the entertainment industry will come easily.
