Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 366: Summoning the Rolling Stones to the stage (two-in-one chapter)

The next afternoon, Gendarmenmarkt.

The square in front of the concert hall has been fenced off in three directions. Unlike the Summer Classical Music Festival, Hatter's rock tour does not have any seats. The capacity of the square has also increased from 15000 seats to standing people.

But these 15000 people were not the only ones to enjoy the concert live. From every corner of Gendarmenmarkt, the sound could be heard even if the stage was not visible. And the balconies and windows upstairs in the row of restaurants and hotels facing the concert hall are the best "VIP" locations.

At 6 o'clock in the evening, various audiences who used the back door began to enter the venue early in order to secure the seats closest to the stage. The most eye-catching one was the tour group from China. When they appeared in the venue under the surveillance of a group of Chinese music fans, bursts of exclamations began to be heard around the fence.

"Isn't that Tao Xiaoyu? Why is he here? Could it be that he is imitating King Crab and wants to be called out by Rolling Stone?"

"Well, who is the woman holding hands with him? She looks like a passerby, is she his agent?"

"No, that person is pretty good-looking. He looks familiar. He must be from the industry!"

"Uh... An Feng... Goddess An!"

"Fuck me, how come the makeup of the national goddess is still as close to the people as ever!"

These two are the last female singers and actresses selected in Magic TV 3+3.

That song was naturally not difficult for Tao Xiaoyu, but how could she let go of the opportunity to come to Europe with everyone and shame herself in front of Bian Lang? She had long heard that a bunch of new folk folk groups in Dong Youbian's former company got new songs that Bian Lang couldn't even pay high prices for because they sang at Dong Youbian's live.

This proves that Bian Lang's songs are completely based on people's mood, so it is very necessary to familiarize yourself with them.

As for the national goddess An Feng who is wearing a maroon down jacket next to her, she is a very strange existence in the industry. In the industry, in order to look thin, all the actresses in the industry who pretend to eat in films and don't know the taste of meat all year round can't be seen in this one at all.

Not to mention her big shoulders and round waist, her private clothes are so friendly to the people and girls with a little bit of taste say they can't understand her. However, this one has always been firmly seated as the national goddess because of her appearance and temperament.

Moreover, he has a very ordinary white voice, but he has always wanted to be a film and television singer, so this time he sincerely came to ask Bian Lang for advice. Naturally, she also wanted to take this opportunity to see if she could get closer to her and ask Bian Lang to create a solo album for her in the future.

The two women stood at the edge of the stage, and An Feng asked Tao Xiaoyu, "Sister Xiaoyu, do you think Bian Lang will specifically ask us to interact."

"The Rolling Stones won't announce the songs in advance. They didn't release any new songs last time. I'm afraid they will be indispensable this time. I guess Bian Lang won't do that, right?"

This was actually said very tactfully, but An Feng still asked relentlessly: "Then we will also arrange one or two old songs. I had already memorized all the Rolling Stones in my mind before I came here. …”

Tao Xiaoyu was ashamed: "The Rolling Stones would definitely not sing folk songs and pop songs in this kind of rock venue, and if those rock songs were really interactive, An Feng's white voice would probably lead Bian Lang astray... …”

Although I was thinking so in my heart, I didn't want to lose the confidence of this goddess: "Then you just wait and see."

Ma Rui and her painter friend naturally followed, and Bian Lang also arranged for them to have the opportunity to enter the venue with these celebrities.

Among all the handsome and beautiful celebrities, the figures of these two amateurs are quite eye-catching.

Those Chinese music fans outside the venue who didn't know the inside story at all thought these two were also stars about to debut from some company.

Ma Rui, who felt a little uncomfortable being photographed, thought to herself that she would definitely not take advantage of Bian Lang's benefits next time, and there would be nothing wrong with coming in with the ordinary audience.

But her painter friend somewhat enjoyed this feeling.

"Run, are those your Chinese stars? You guys shouldn't see them out like this very often in China, right?"

Ma Rui nodded and said: "In China, probably only the one in the maroon coat is more casual. When other celebrities go out on the street, they are either completely unrecognizable, or they have a group of bodyguards to clear the way..."

"Oh, then your old classmates are really awesome. I feel like they are all here for your old classmates."

Although Ma Rui didn't know the inside story about this, she still thought so. No matter how famous Hatter is in the rock circle, it is impossible to attract these people to go out to Europe to watch the tour. The only explanation is the Rolling Stones and Bian Lang. But this made her even more surprised. How did Bian Lang go from being a transparent person in circles to becoming a star in the entertainment industry in just half a year?

Moreover, she had never seen this kind of private outing in person, but just hearing about it found it a bit unbelievable, and she automatically thought of the New Year's Eve.

"I think I came here for the New Year's Eve party. I can't believe it..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by a friend's exclamation: "Oh, look, that's DGM's little pop queen, Swift!"

Behind Swift, there were also several fashionably dressed men and women. Judging from the reactions of friends and passers-by, they must also be celebrities from Europe and the United States.

"Bian Lang's influence is simply..."

There are two other Chinese men following this group of foreigners, and they are also a little distracted now.

Bian Hai even turned Ai Hao around with his hand and asked tentatively: "Xiao Hao, should we wave?"

Ai Hao, who was with the wrong team, was a little nervous before, but now he is a little excited when he sees this scene, but he still has some sense: "Uncle Bian, I don't think it's necessary. We are not here to walk on the red carpet!"

If today's scene had not been foreshadowed by the previous two games, and the cooperation between DGM and the Rolling Stones had not been reached, these people would have only done it in a low-key manner. But now that DGM has won the Rolling Stones' overseas management agency, it will naturally help the Rolling Stones build momentum. .

From this point on, the nature of Hatter's tour began to change. Although there is deliberate operation by DGM in this, of course you have to be hardworking. If the music of the Rolling Stones is not good, these people will not be willing to support this field.

Especially after Bian Lang has proven that he can continue to produce high-quality English works, DGM naturally wants to let its own artists have more contact with Bian Lang, so that they can get the English works created by Bian Lang like the lucky ones in China. Songs, so why not?

Adams, who had booked a suite in the hotel opposite, looked at this scene with joy and a little loss.

Because he was the only one on the large balcony of the suite, none of the potential advertisers he invited over wanted to watch a rock show with him in such an awkward way. At Holly's call, everyone ran downstairs, so that in the nearly 100-square-meter suite, he was the only one drinking whiskey.

As the sun slowly set towards the back of the concert hall, the ordinary audience began to enter in an orderly manner, and the band responsible for the opening was also making final adjustments to the equipment on the stage.

Feimos, who was behind the stage, looked at the figures in the front row, and it was impossible to say that he was feeling sour. After all, it was only after they first won the first place on the European Rock Chart that they were treated like this in so many years. That concert.

"Bob, I feel that next year... or at least the year after next, when the Rolling Stones come to Europe to hold a special concert, we as guests must prepare well, so that we can be worthy of their influence and stage!"

Bob took a sip of whiskey from the paper cup and said with a red face: "Maybe we should discuss with Evelyn and sign our management contract in China to the Rolling Stones, so that our relationship will be closer. Wave may have a suitable He will also collaborate with us on some songs.”

Hearing this, Feimos waved his hands and said: "My old man, I don't think this will happen. The songs that Wave has released now are not in line with the style of our band..."

"I think we have a chance. Didn't you find that Bian Lang's English lyrics are more wild?"

When he was told that, Feimos was stunned for a moment, then smiled and patted Bob on the shoulder: "It's true... China is a reserved and reserved nation, and some songs are really not suitable for the Rolling Stones to sing directly..."

"So work harder, my man. The fact that the Rolling Stones wrote a song like "Bye Bye Jack" proves that our emotional core is the same. And you saw the outro of "Comfortably Numb," if we keep doing this If we stagnate, perhaps this opportunity may not come to us by then..."

If this topic were brought up with other bands, or if the subject was not the Rolling Stones, there might be internal strife within the band.

Rock band songs are basically composed and composed by themselves, and they rarely collaborate or cover songs with others.

That's because there is a big difference between rock and pop. Pop is mostly about catering to the audience, and the audience can make whatever music they like, while rock is mostly about the expression of the creator's inner emotions or about life and reality. accusations and venting.

These two types of music are for others and for oneself, and only one's own creation can better express one's emotions, so rock music must be created by oneself...

But there are exceptions to everything. As long as the classicness of a song is widely recognized by everyone, then rock bands will also sing other people's songs.

For example, Bob Dylan, the original Nobel Prize-winning singer, has had his songs covered by top bands including Guns N' Roses and The Rolling Stones.

Especially Guns N' Roses. In 1987, Guns N' Roses adapted and began to perform Bob Dylan's classic song "Knockin' on Heaven's Door", which was included in the classic rock history album "Use Your Illusion II" in 1991.

The popularity of Guns N' Roses has caused people to overlook Bob Dylan, the original creator of this game. They once thought that this popular song came from Guns N' Roses. In fact, "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" was released as early as 1973. . Later, Dylan himself also liked Guns N' Roses' adaptation and cover of this song, and has sung it 460 times in concerts so far.

If you just mention the song title, many people may not be able to react at first, but look at these lyrics: "Knock-knock-knocking on heaven's door..."

Fans of Guns N' Roses will probably all say: "Hold the grass, those two big guys fighting in the MV are so eye-catching!"

There is also a well-known saying: "Dylan sang "Prying Open the Door to Heaven", while Guns N' Roses just kicked it with his feet!"

……

Although the opening band is not well-known, its ability to mobilize the atmosphere of the scene is definitely top-notch.

After three songs, An Feng felt like she had to take off her down jacket before she could continue to watch the show comfortably. But just as she was about to bend down and pull the zipper, the assistant behind her grabbed her hand and moved closer. He reached into her ear and said, "The sun is setting now, and the temperature will be getting lower and lower. It's too easy to catch a cold if you take off your down jacket!"

That's what she said, but in fact, she cared more about An Feng's reputation than An Feng's health. Thinking of An Feng's leopard print coat and Barbie pink inner wear today, she felt that even if An Feng Wu was broken, she would never be allowed to take off her down jacket.

Then Hatter came on the stage. Feimos looked at the Chinese stars in the audience and deliberately said angrily: "I know you are all here for the Rolling Stones, but this is our Hatter tour. You can't bear to watch me." Don’t even think about getting high with the Rolling Stones in the upcoming performances!”

Everyone knew he was joking, so the whole audience burst into laughter.

Bob even added: "Phimos, if you want to linger and not start, I can also play the Rolling Stones song!"

The two people's banter immediately caused the focus of the scene, which had been somewhat deviated due to the Rolling Stones, to focus on Hatter again.

In the following performances, the band members were in good condition that was clearly visible to the naked eye. Olaf, who was listening in, felt that the Hatter was different today. It felt like an old engine that had just been maintained. The pistons soaked in new oil seemed not to be tired at all.

There were also some fans in the audience who kept following us. Today’s Hatter looked much younger than the previous performances. The whole performance had a sense of mission, and it felt like it was to make this Gendarmenmarkt The royal knight who had turned into a ghost was resurrected!

The rhythm of the drums is like horses' hooves, and the lyrics are as sharp as a horse's crowing!

After a series of 8 songs, Feimos opened his arms with his guitar on his shoulder. While accepting the worship of the fans, he slowly raised his hands like a magic stick and shouted to the fans in the audience: "Rolling Stone" Your call needs to be heard!”

As the fans began to chant the name of the Rolling Stones under his leadership, Dayong backstage couldn't help but said: "Why does it feel like Feimos is casting a spell? It's like we were summoned by him."

"To be honest, when it comes to stimulating the emotions of music fans, these foreign bands do have their own tricks. You can see the fans in the audience, and they are all yelling along. If any band in China comes with such a voice, there will probably be people below. I’m going to scold SB…”

After Li Li finished speaking, he looked at Bian Lang and saw that after he drank up the last sip of hot water, he stretched out his hand and said, "Let's go on stage!"
