Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 20 Variety Shows
"It's called "Unique Band". It probably gathers a group of musicians and lead singers, goes there to form a band and compete. Most of them are independent musicians or musicians, and there are also a few second-line band musicians and pop singers. Song. I have a way, if you want to go, you don’t need an interview, just go and participate in it the day after tomorrow.”

Lao Tan didn't know if Bian Lang understood, anyway, that's what he understood.

As soon as I heard Bian Lang, I understood that this was a program like "Our Band" on Original Earth.It's just that on the original earth, these were all follow-up works after Le Xia became popular. After one season, there was no follow-up. I didn't expect that someone on Aquamarine would use this to start a band variety show.

He is currently short of people in the band, so how could he let this opportunity to mix things up.

"Go, can you bring Dayong with you?" Bian Lang regretted it after asking this question.

Sure enough, Dayong directly refused: "No! Lang, I think, when you are looking for other musicians, don't mention my name for now."

Bian Lang was speechless, emotionally brave. The hurdle in his heart has not passed yet, but it is really difficult for others to help with things like reconciliation with oneself.

Seeing Bian Lang's quick promise, Lao Tan felt that he really couldn't understand Bian Lang now.Blue Mercury's rock and roll circle is currently in the state of the former Earth's Le Xia. Everyone shakes their heads when they mention variety shows, but anyone who goes there will be drowned by the spittle of the circle.

This is the case in the rock circle. Before there is a pioneer who uses the most practical thing like money to break a hole in this hard wall, everyone would rather go hungry and find income elsewhere to fill their lives, and just want to stay here. Dominate your own comfort zone.

If there hadn't been a big brother in the program team who had helped Lao Tan a lot and told him to tell him, he wouldn't have told Bian Lang about it.Now that Bian Lang doesn't resist at all, he just thinks he has overfulfilled the task: "Recording in Qiong Province in three days. The recording fee for one phase is 3 yuan. You sign up for two phases first. The transportation, food and accommodation are all taken care of by the program team. If you OK, I’ll give you the contract right away.”

Bian Lang nodded affirmatively and said: "Okay, but this is going to be recorded, is this Jiasai?" He will not be polite to Lao Tan, but if there are other relationships involved, he will only know what to do in the future after he knows in advance return.

"Don't think so much. You'll know what's going on when you get there, and I won't trick you."

Lao Tan said that Bian Lang didn't think much about it. To participate in this variety show, ranking and other matters were secondary. The key was to find musicians for the band. Even if he didn't find the right one, expanding his contacts in the circle would also be helpful for Bian Lang now. Especially important for waves.

As far as the original owner's poor social circle is concerned, Bian Lang, the drummer who found Dayong, felt that he was blessed by the ancestors of their old Bian family.

Sure enough, after Bian Lang returned home, he received the list of performers from Lao Tan. The original owners of the rock and roll musicians on it knew two of them, and they were the ones who had met before when they went out to perform together.But he paid special attention to one of the bass players, because Magic City was written in the column of the band name.

This is a leading band under Magic Disc, Bian Lang guessed that this person came to the variety show because he was forced by Magic Disc to make the band famous.

In the group of singers, he saw a name he had just heard yesterday, which was Xia Yuxi.Seeing this, Bian Lang felt that this trip to the variety show should be very interesting.

……

BJ, Modie Records Headquarters, Wei Lan and Li Yiliang were chatting with Pan Xiulong about the band.

At this time, another agent from the company came over and asked: "Does your Li Yiliang want to go to "The Unique Band"? Brother Kaizi said that if you wanted to go, he gave in. He has always been willing to do self-made variety shows on the Taiku platform. Please think carefully about the expensive publicity, this is a good opportunity for Li Yiliang!"

As soon as the talent left, Pan Xiulong asked Li Yiliang, "You make up your own mind on this matter, we don't give advice."

In fact, Li Yiliang had heard the subtext of the manager just now, saying that Brother Kaizi was taking care of him, a newcomer, but in fact, he didn't want to go, and felt that it was a shame to go to variety shows who played rock and roll.

Li Yiliang is naturally no exception: "I won't go if I can. I still want to concentrate on polishing my music!"

Pan Xiulong looked at him and nodded happily: "Come on, we are all old, and the future of China Rock depends on young people like you."

……

The next day, Bian Lang and Dayong rehearsed as planned in the morning, and there was no major problem with the recording in the afternoon. The accompaniment of three songs was completed in four hours. When recording the vocals, Bian Lang's only flaw was singing "No More Hesitation" "Cantonese pronunciation is not standard.

For this reason, Bian Lang asked Dayong to record a version by himself. Anyway, he doesn't plan to release this song now. He will practice Cantonese with Dayong after recording the variety show before recording.

Bian Lang passed the OST of the "Tractor Band" episode and the demo of the promotional song to Zhou Mo that night, and Zhou Mo invited Qiu Luo and the producer to listen together.

After listening to it, the producer was silent for a long time before uttering a sentence: "Old Zhou, we will give you less money. Otherwise, we would not ask others to sing the promotional song, and add some money to Bian Lang, so that someone can record it directly." gone."

When Zhou Mo heard this, he couldn't help but tease: "Zhong Hua, you are such a tough guy that you actually take the initiative to give people more money? Qiu Luo, what do you mean?"

Qiu Luo smoked a circle of cigarettes, and after lighting it up, he said, "I think it's better to listen to Brother Lang. Let's find a female singer to record this song, which can be considered as an advertisement for Brother Lang. But we don't care about this favor." Remember!"

The producer nodded: "Okay, let's do it like this. I'll quickly find someone, just because of the quality of the song. As long as the person is suitable, we'll spend the money to find a front-line talent!"

……

On November 6, the weather was fine.

Bian Lang got up at 4 o'clock in the morning and went out. On the morning flight to Qiong Province, Bian Lang remembered the program process that Lao Tan gave him last night. The first recorded content was the personal self-presentation of 31 contestants. The performance of the guests will be graded by the guest teacher.

The guest teacher will select 3 S-level captains and 4 A-level captains to form a team. The three S-class captains have priority in selecting people, and the number of team members is not limited. The four A-class captains are selected from the remaining people. The total number of band members cannot exceed 3 people.

The remaining team members do not have the right to choose the captain independently, but they can refuse the invitation. If they are favored by two captains of the same level at the same time, they have the right to reverse the election.If no one is selected, the chance to perform on the spot will be lost. Players who are not selected for two consecutive rounds will be eliminated by the program group.

Bian Lang was looking for musicians, so he had to win the first round of S. The original owner had no contacts in the circle, so it was impossible to have guest teachers to take care of him, and Bian Lang knew variety show routines very well in his previous life. There is actually only one S-rank quota that can be decided by the guest teacher on the spot.

Therefore, the songs and live performances he presented this time must be hard to fault.

"It's impossible to continue the loop station of "People Without Ideals Are Not Sad". I have to come up with something new to let people see more possibilities in me... The Cantonese version of "Glory Years" is a double-edged sword, and "Sister" The content is too heavy and not suitable for competition..."

Bianlang, who was caught in the difficulty of choosing again, fell asleep after thinking about it.
