this man is not calm

Chapter 90
Mei Fengchun's family didn't approve of her learning music and being a singer.

On the one hand, the status is not high, and the social perception is poor. Traditional culture is not very supportive of women's publicity.

If it wasn't for Jin Shi's connection, almost all the people on this line were acquaintances, and there would be nothing wrong with her at all.

This is how society works, and no matter what you do, you will inevitably be sophisticated.

After explaining the matter clearly, Jin Shang drove Mei Fengchun home, politely declined the other party's invitation to sit in, and prepared to pick up his girlfriend Li Xuan to go home for dinner.

When Mei Fengchun opened the door and entered the house, the sun had not completely set, but the dinner at home was already ready.

"Coming back so early?"

"Today is the weekend. I've worked hard during the day, but working overtime at night is too exaggerated. After finishing business, my little cousin drove me back."

"He...has been here? Why didn't he come in and sit down..."

"He said he was going home for dinner with his girlfriend."

Excuses or no excuses, anyway, I didn't intend to come and nag.

"Really!"

Mei Xinghong sighed regretfully, leaned lazily on the sofa and watched TV,

"Wait for the others to come back and have dinner together. By the way, is your song finished?"

"It's coming soon, it will be available in a month at most."

"That's pretty fast! You are still a student, you can sing, but you can't delay your studies..."

"Understood, this is also part of the internship! Aunt, are you... already waiting? There are still three hours, so let's take a break first."

Not at home during the day, Mei Fengchun didn't know how long Mei Xinghong had been sitting in front of the TV, and estimated that the time would not be short.

"Ok!"

He agreed with his mouth, but his body didn't move.

"Uncle hasn't been here much recently!"

"Busy to buy a store and opened a store. I said I want to be a clothing brand. I didn't do it when I was young. Now I'm tossing around..."

"Uncle and you are still young!"

Talking one after another, seeing that her aunt Mei Xinghong was a little absent-minded and had no intention of talking to herself at all, Mei Fengchun found an excuse, went to wash up, and went back to her room.

"It's not a family, don't go into a family!"They are all stubborn donkeys, and they are not tired of competing with themselves for so many years. 』

With a few words in her heart, Mei Fengchun lazily leaned on the chair in front of the desk, reminiscing about what she had gained during the day.

Different from the knowledge learned in university classrooms, the details of commercial operation deviate greatly from the theory.

Regardless of the fact that the textbooks are all versions written in recent years, there is no essential difference from decades or even hundreds of years ago.

In the past half a century, social and economic development has advanced rapidly, cultures have continued to blend, and many styles and genres have been born in the music circle.

However, in the eyes of professionals, they are all dojos in snail shells, and the truly groundbreaking things are close to zero.

After entering university, Mei Fengchun intuitively felt that this profession was declining, and even the so-called masters were only tinkering with the foundation of their predecessors;
In the layman's perception, there are only good songs, and there are fewer and fewer beautiful melodies.

Occasionally, there are excellent works that catch people's ears. Practitioners with a little basic knowledge will know where they are picked from when they hear them. The rhythm is slightly changed, and the loudness is slightly increased. For example, "the most familiar unfamiliar chord" - Canon chord, translated Looking through the new works on the market in recent years, more than half of them can find several popular variations of Canon chords.

The most pitiful thing is that Mei Fengchun clearly felt that the top art schools like Yangyin have also been severely eroded by society. Not only has the atmosphere become more and more vulgar, but the teaching direction has also become more and more eager for quick success. up.

After joining the promotional project of the song "Water Tune Getou When Will the Moon Come" led by Jin Shang, Mei Fengchun really felt that the basic knowledge taught by the school teachers is still very solid, that is, to adapt to market changes, Popular trends and the application of the latest technology are not only insensitive, but even vaguely repulsive.

As the top music school in China, it is necessary to persevere. However, it does not pay attention to the popular music forms and blindly pursues the so-called "advanced" music. In traditional opera, bel canto, ethnic, Fields such as opera and symphony are spinning, and it is indeed suspected of working behind closed doors.

Of course, this is the case all over the world, not only in China, but in the end there is still a bit of heritage in elegant art.

After chatting a few times with Jin Shang, a half bucket of water, and Luo Yang, a senior practitioner, Mei Fengchun also understood that popular pop music is indeed declining at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The exhaustion of creative inspiration and the loss of talents are just one aspect. Practitioners are also more inclined to use the "short, flat and quick" strategy to earn money from the pockets of audiences with low appreciation.

What music dreams, actor dreams, opera dreams, opera dreams, all turned into dreams of getting rich in the end; the music circle, film and television circle, media circle, and model circle will all move closer to the entertainment circle in the future.

"Entertainment for the whole people, the era of celebrities being over-consumed is approaching, and it is a high probability event that they will go further and further on the road of vulgar taste."

"It's like going to a restaurant. Now I just feel that the food is not good, and the chef's level is a bit poor. In fact, it's okay; when I treat my colleagues with bad porridge, it's conscientious to offer dishes that don't cause diarrhea; Even one day, there will be a pile of shit on the market, what can you do? Choose a hot one and squeeze your nose to eat it, what else can you drip..."

When Jin Shang joked, Mei Fengchun was still a little unconvinced and refuted loudly.

"It's okay not to eat the head office? The smell is uncomfortable enough..."

"I have lived in Lanshi for a long time without smelling its fragrance, and I have lived in Baoshi for a long time without smelling its smell. Experts like you are only a minority. The people like to hear it, and you don't like it. How old are you?"

Hearing this kind of words, Mei Fengchun seemed to have seen his little cousin's unrestrained and nonchalant appearance again when he was a child, and wished to go up and punch him a few times to sew that stinky mouth shut.

Fortunately, many years of self-cultivation have paid off.

Mei Fengchun, who suppressed the upset in his heart, tried to sing again and again patiently. When he got home, he calmed down, and the boring thoughts came to his mind again.

Carefully pondering the bits and pieces of these years, including schooling experience, private knowledge, and chatting among friends, I feel that Jin Shang's judgment is very likely to be correct.

Thinking of the music industry in the future, it will be a world where each other is inferior, and I feel helpless.

『At least, I have to be persistent, and I will never join forces. 』

While thinking wildly, there was a knock on the door.

"Sister Xiaochun, it's time to eat!"

"I'll be right there."

After Er Hui came back, he politely asked his cousin to have dinner.

Mei Fengchun's second uncle, the eldest son has graduated from university and is working in his own business, his two daughters are still in school, and the youngest brother, "Erhui", is named Mei Wenlong, because the eldest son is called Mei Wenhui, and the youngest son's baby name is Just call it "Erhui", and call it back and forth, and this skinny monkey becomes "Erhui".

As for why it is not called "Little Hui", Mei Fengchun's family also has a "Three Hui" who is two years younger than Mei Wenlong.

The small names in Beijing are so casual, and so are the big and small names of the Nan family brothers.

Walking into the restaurant, Mei Fengchun saw his aunt Mei Xinghong and Erhui waiting.

"It's just us?"

"There is entertainment!"

"Oh!"

Such a result is also common.

Mei Fengchun would often stay at her second uncle's house because it was closer to the school; Mei Xinghong wanted to be closer to Jin's house, and her brothers were also worried about what would happen to her alone, so they often took her Take it and stay here for a while.

The second uncle's family is busy with business and entertains a lot, and is often not at home. It is also a good thing to have two adults watching the children at home.

Erhui, who was in a hurry, finished his meal and wanted to go outside to play again. Mei Xinghong stared at him a few times, and obediently went back to his room to do his homework.

Mei Fengchun persuaded with a smile:

"It's already summer vacation, it's okay for the children to relax a bit."

"Ok!"

Mei Xinghong, who put down her chopsticks after eating too much, sighed,

"In the afternoon, someone came to complain, saying that Erhui was fighting with others, knocked down the motorcycle, and broke the rearview mirror..."

"Eh? Are you okay..."

"Fortunately, I just scratched the skin and applied some medicine."

As for the loss of money, the two of them didn't mention it much. People who live nearby are either rich or expensive, and no one would argue over such a trivial matter.

Seeing the melancholy look on her aunt's face, she probably thought of what to do when something similar happened to Jin Shang when she was a child, so Mei Fengchun quickly changed the subject and said:
"I don't know if there are many people watching A Shang's show."

"It should be quite a lot! There have been several rounds of previews, and the college entrance examination is approaching, and it is a related hot topic, and there are a lot of attention..."

Ok!

I don't even know if the TV station has a preview. I guess I have been staring at the TV all day.

"What did the trailer say?"

"Several paragraphs, quite complicated. There seem to be a few poems, but I don't remember..."

"how do you feel?"

"It's all good!"

"It was good!"

Mei Fengchun replied,
"Auntie will know when I see it. He is a very angry little kid. Although he is a bit stubborn, he is still a good person..."

"I... hope he is more stingy."

Mei Xinghong who shook her head slightly said regretfully,
"With me and without me, they are all equally good, so am I useless?"

"Eh?"

Whether it's good or bad, there are problems, so this topic can't go on!
Mei Fengchun opened his mouth and didn't know where to enlighten him, but finally gave up.

"How about going out for a walk later, relaxing, and watching when I come back? There are still nearly two hours left, and I am idle..."

After the meal, the aunt and nephew cleaned up the dishes together, and Mei Fengchun complained a little dissatisfied:

"Usually I come here very often, but today I don't even have a phone call."

"Especially today, I won't come. I must be alone at home watching TV! Your uncle, don't look at him usually careless, he has a lot of thoughts..."

It was fine in the past, and Jin Shi and Mei Xinghong also talked about Jin Shang from time to time, but now, it is inappropriate to mention it.

Wouldn't it be embarrassing if Jin Shangzhen said something on the show that made people unable to get off the stage?
Later, the two took Erhui to a nearby park for a stroll. There were many people taking a walk to enjoy the cool air. At the beginning of July, which was about to enter the hottest time of the year, they shook cattail fans and brought their grandchildren's grandparents to chat. It is also inseparable from the current hot spots, the parents are short-sighted, especially the college entrance examination, whose children are smart, which nearby high school has the highest enrollment rate, and so on.

"Look, someone still mentioned that my little cousin is still a little popular in the capital."

Anyway, he is also one of the representatives of the local "student masters", and he is on the cusp of the storm. As long as he has the habit of reading newspapers and listening to the radio, it is difficult to understand.

Some parents with middle school students in their families also joked that if they want their children to see what "other people's children" are like, they need to learn more.

Not only the TV preview, but most of the newspapers including "Jingxi Metropolis Daily" have previews.

To put it bluntly, the upcoming weekend special edition of "Oriental Night Talk" is specially prepared for college entrance examination students and their parents.

One of the characteristics of propaganda in this era is to keep up with current events and respond to the expectations of the people at the moment.

Twenty years later, most of this attribute was taken away by Internet social media. Now in 20, the authority, professionalism, and timeliness of national-level core media are still very trustworthy.

It was late at night, and the cool night breeze reminded people that it was getting late. The aunt and nephew "carried" Erhui who was unwilling to leave, dragged him home, then turned on the TV, and waited for the show to start.

Agitated, the aggrieved Erhui muttered dissatisfiedly:

"You always talk about Cousin Ah Shang, why hasn't he come to my house? Let him come with Dai Yiqin when he comes! Take a few more photos and show those punks who don't believe me. I never brag ..."

"Which family are you from? You are so young..."

Without waiting for Mei Xinghong to teach her a lesson, Mei Fengchun hurriedly twisted Erhui's ears,

"Either go back to the room and sleep, or watch TV honestly, don't talk too much."

"Watch TV and watch TV! Let go, silly Dachun, your ears are swollen..."

"Silly Dachun is also your name?"

Mei Fengchun, who rubbed Erhui's cheek until it turned red and hot, let go, said angrily,

"Sit down honestly..."

"Hasn't this started yet? I'm going to pour some drinks..."

"Go quickly, pour me and your aunt a glass too."

"Humph!"

Although he was reluctant, his arms couldn't twist his thighs, so Er Hui had no choice but to do so obediently.

Ten minutes later, under Erhui's impatient gaze, the show finally started.

"Cousin Jin, you're so tall..."

Unlike the dull one in the photo, Jin Shang in the TV is obviously much more lively.

Because it is the focus of the promotion, the editing also highlights Jin Shang's relatively good side.

Although her face is immature, she is taller than the host Wu Chan. After three months of training, her original thinness has subsided a lot, and her frame looks much stronger.

In contrast, Lu Liao is a little different. His hairstyle is a bit non-mainstream, and his clothes are also different from the plainness of ordinary students. They are too fancy.

In terms of temperament, Jin Shang, who is a few months younger, looks more mature and stable.
