Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 467 Rolling Stone LAB
Liu Xiubo absolutely agrees with what Bian Lang said. As a senior practitioner in the publishing industry, he is still very sensitive to these ideological things.

When he first read the reprinted version of this comic, he already understood why Bian Lang didn't choose to publish it in China first.

Now after chatting, he found that Bian Lang didn't seem to have considered the domestic market.

"If that's the case, Teacher Bian doesn't actually need to arrange this meeting. I, Lao Liu, have been an editor for so many years and I can tell the truth. Teacher Bian's doing that makes me feel embarrassed!"

When Liu Xiubo said this, he didn't feel very disappointed. On the contrary, he felt more curious.

Speaking of which, Bian Lang didn't hide anything, and directly said to Liu Xiubo: "My main business has always been music, but there are always some stories in my mind. I feel that using pictures to express them will be more intuitive than music, so Lao Mo and I Got this comic studio.”

After hearing what Bian Lang said, Liu Xiubo did not rush to interrupt, but took a sip of coffee and waited for Bian Lang to continue.

"Before, Lao Mo was still under some financial pressure, but now that V is popular abroad, he and I have done what we can for our national self-confidence. The United States has their superheroes, and the island nation has their middle-class souls, but Our Sun Wukong, Nezha, and the mighty generals of the Three Kingdoms..."

When Bian Lang said this, he felt somewhat angry in his heart.

In the original earth, the big national IPs left by our ancestors in China, for some unknown reason, comic and game modifications are often the easiest to be exploited in the hands of islanders.

Faced with this sudden invitation, Liu Xiubo really didn't expect it at all. After being shocked, he subconsciously said: "Teacher Bian, after the work comes out, you can just hand it over to our publishing house. Then I will You must try your best..."

After a moment of silence, Liu Xiubo slowly said, "Yes, our previous Chinese ink style was so good... What does the teacher over there mean?"

Bian Lang opened the untouched plastic bag among the ingredients he brought and took out the dozen pure white pancakes inside.

At this time, Qi Yue saw that both of them were silent, so he walked over to Bian Lang and said, "Your pot of beef is almost done. If you have any other secret recipes, please bring them out quickly." Because of the previous Rolling Stone Mushroom The filter for Bolognese Noodles is still there, but Qi Yue still doesn't believe that Bian Lang is here just to make a pot of crispy beef that can be found anywhere on the Internet.

As for what Zhang Qin is watching now, aside from the plot and the painter, it’s probably too simple to go back 30 years.

"I just feel that if I have a child in the future and all he sees are picture books and animations with poor illustrations and no sense of aesthetics or storytelling, then his childhood will be a lot less fun!"

Although there are some classic film and television works in China, they were all shot many years ago. The ink version of "Havoc in the Sky" was an unprecedented work. Later, when I watched the bearded "Journey to the West", Bian Lang only lasted for half an episode...

In his previous life, he grew up watching the Renmei version of "Ma Liang", the American version of "Havoc in the Sky", "Nezha Haohai", etc.

Bian Lang felt this when he read the children's books and cartoons that Zhang Qin was reading now.

Liu Xiubo was lost in thought by Bian Lang's words. He felt that Bian Lang's words were not only talking about the Chinese animation market, but also an issue that had risen to the level of Chinese people's aesthetics.

Seeing this, before Chef Ma could say anything, Qi Yue said first, "Isn't this a piece of bait? I have eaten this when I was in Yunnan Province. There are fried dough sticks, ham sausage, braised chicken, etc. You can Are you going to roll this beef in bait?"

Although this is not stated explicitly, the meaning behind it is already very clear, that is, if your publishing house is not good, we will despise it, but we recognize you as a person.

Akira Toriyama used the setting of "Journey to the West" to draw Dragon Ball, and "Three Kingdoms" has become a classic theme in the island nation's game industry for more than 20 years.

Before he finished speaking, Bian Lang interrupted with a smile: "Editor Liu, what I hope is that we can complete this work together and make it popular from home to abroad."

In the kitchen, Bian Lang tasted the beef that almost melted in his mouth, and then said to Chef Ma: "Chef Ma, do you have a stove like a charcoal fire?"

Chef Ma didn't know what Bian Lang was going to do. After thinking about his request, he shook his head and said, "We don't do barbecue here. What do you want to grill over an open fire? Can't the fire on the stove work?"

Of course, Bian Lang didn't expect the deal to be successful the first time, but at least he had to plant a seed in Liu Xiubo's heart and wait for it to slowly take root and sprout.

Bian Lang did not answer directly but took out his mobile phone, found a color drawing based on the image of Peng Yuyan in the movie "The Legend of Wukong" in his previous life and handed it to Liu Xiubo: "This is what we did in V If Editor Liu is interested in the next project we are going to start after completion, we would be very honored to invite you to join our team! ”

Hearing this, Liu Xiubo sighed helplessly, without saying anything. He just looked at the exquisite and beautiful face that he had not seen for some years and was in a daze.

Bian Lang said to Liu Xiubo: "Editor Liu, wait a moment. I'm going to get something to eat. Let's fill our stomachs first." Then he entered the kitchen.

The situation here is similar. The classics are stuck in the works of the 90s. After the new century, there are no decent works that are not good enough.

It’s no wonder that Qi Yue would think so. The Yunnan people’s preference for rice products is particularly exaggerated in the development of the fillings for this roasted bait cake. There is a trend that everything can be rolled.

Not to mention the main ingredients, there are countless combinations of pickles and sauces for seasoning.

Bian Lang's favorite in his previous life was the combination of red oil fermented bean curd, spicy sauce, meat sauce, pickled vegetables, shredded potatoes, bean sprouts and shiitake mushroom feet.

He has eaten this kind of breakfast from one yuan and two when he was a child to ten yuan later. It is the kind of breakfast that you can eat no matter how much you eat without feeling tired.

But the way he wanted to teach Qi Yue today was not this!
"It's just bait, but I won't eat it in a roll today. You should know how to eat mutton steamed buns, right?"

Upon hearing this, Chef Ma, who had previously been quite disdainful of Bian Lang's performance this time, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Although he didn't know what it would taste like in his mouth, he thought it wouldn't be too bad just thinking about it.

The key point is that they have never heard of this way of eating, so it is enough of a gimmick to promote it.

"Is that quartz stove okay? If so, there's one outside." Qi Yue, who understood Bian Lang's intention, asked.

"Okay, why not!" After saying this, Bian Lang took the bait and followed Qi Yue out. Then he did not forget to give instructions to Chef Ma, who had lost his arrogance: "Chef Ma, please give us some food later." Come over with three bowls of beef soup. It depends on how much meat you have, and remember to add some mint leaves to it!"

Chef Ma just wanted to quickly taste the beef soaked in bait cubes. He agreed immediately and said, "Save some of your bait cubes for me. Don't just finish it with the three of you!" "

"There are 12 in this dozen. Normally, one person only eats two, so you are indispensable." But in the end, Qi Yue and Liu Xiubo felt that it was not enough to eat 4 each!

If it weren't for the sake of face, the soft and glutinous rice aroma of the bait, and the unique and wonderful taste that emerges after being soaked in the spicy beef soup, the two of them could keep showing off.

This is a unique halal way of eating in Bian Lang's hometown in the county town. As long as Bian Lang goes back, no matter how much he drank the night before, he will definitely get up early the next day and go to Ma Enmei's house to buy a bowl of beef soup for 8 yuan, and then eat it in the restaurant opposite I bought two white bait cubes from the stall of the old lady who sells roasted bait cubes, and then I squatted on the large stone staircase of their house, tearing off the bait cubes and eating them with soup.

As for Chef Ma, he was given a piece of bait in the end. After eating, he yelled: "Madam boss, I almost swallowed my own tongue! It's up to you to talk about it!"

Hearing this, Liu Xiubo, who had not yet recovered from the amazing taste of the bait cubes soaked in beef soup, asked curiously: "Teacher Bian, are you a partner here?"

"The boss lady and I are friends. We are both from the rock industry."

"Oh, if I still want to take a bite in the future, will it work if I come here?"

Faced with Liu Xiubo's question, Qi Yue, who had guessed a little bit, smiled and said: "We don't plan to sell it to outsiders yet, but you are Bian Lang's friend. If you want to eat it, just send me a message one day in advance!"

Bian Lang smiled at Qi Yue, then got up and went into the kitchen to communicate with Chef Ma about some personal experiences in the process of making this big crispy beef.

As for bait cubes, as long as you find the right manufacturer, who doesn’t know how to bake bait cubes?
Liu Xiubo looked at the back of Bian Lang entering the kitchen and asked Qi Yue quite confusingly: "Madam boss, who is the Bian Lang you know? He is a top rock player, he can also be a comic screenwriter, and his cooking skills are also good... …”

"He, I feel like he is a rock and roll young man who is full of enthusiasm and will probably stay that way for the rest of his life!"

After saying this, Qi Yue pointed to the sentence posted on the glass at the door of the store: "Always young, always full of tears!"

At this time, Bian Lang's song came from the speakers in the store: "You hate evil as much as you hate it, you fight like a trapped beast, the night wind is roaring... You have never seen it through, you just want to feel the trembling of dying generously..."

……

After that, Bian Lang and Di Li returned to Spring City, leaving Chen Shuting alone in BJ to continue investigating the feasibility of the Lab.

With the successful experience of Modern Sky Lab in his previous life as evidence, Bian Lang feels that this is an indispensable link in the future Rolling Stones ecological chain.

The Modern Sky Lab of the original Earth is a music + offline lifestyle integrated space under Modern Sky that is led by music, with contemporary trendy young people as the mainstream, and with modern genes and aesthetic systems as the core.

As an art and life complex with subcultural heritage and trend-guiding power under Modern Sky, Modernsky Lab combines multiple presentation methods such as Livehouse, theme parties with club elements, and art and cultural exchange salons.

It is not only an art space for young fashion groups, but also a unique quality and style that absorbs the coolest elements of an era and is combined by the hands of the most independent and talented young people in each city. The youth cultural form of avant-garde consciousness.

This move is not considered backward even if you look at the whole world.

In domestic music companies, they are like scorpion daddies.

Bian Lang still remembered that when we were talking about this in the company, it was Dr. Peng or someone who joked: "Isn't this just learning from Deyun Society to build your own theater?"

At that time, everyone laughed it off as a joke, but when Bian Lang thinks about it now, he feels it makes perfect sense.

Although before Bianlang crossed, Modern Sky Lab had only three branches in China: Beijing, Magic City and Spring City. When the Spring City branch started planning, some people laughed at Shen Lihui and said, "You are the one who has been taken advantage of! They don't want you to rent the house." You still have to spend millions on decoration, and you also have to share 25% of the profit. When the original contract expires, the real estate company will charge you rent. Will you withdraw or continue to fight for the investment in decoration? "

The final result was that Joke Modern was completely removed from the entertainment industry during that special period of three years.

In the end, Modern took down almost the entire floor of the shopping mall, and during the three years when live performances were almost paralyzed, Spring City's Modern Sky Lab miraculously continued to perform because of its own factory. Hundreds of games!

In Bian Lang’s view, Modern Sky Lab will definitely become one of Modern’s moats in the future.

In Bian Lang's view, Modern Sky Lab is the best setting to transform band fans into modern fans.

Not only can you listen to the best live here, but it also provides fans with a very comfortable place to socialize offline when there are no performances.

After all, music festivals and other events require approval from higher authorities, payment by the organizer, and other lengthy procedures before they can be realized.

When a small live event goes to someone else's venue, there are many things to coordinate and it's cumbersome.

But Modern Sky Lab is completely different. It has its own place, its own people, plus Absolute Live’s own ticketing, which is quite friendly to a small Live.

This is a window that is completely in your own hands and can be used flexibly to showcase the band.

It is also the best "experimental venue" for some underground or new bands to get started!
According to rumors, a certain band was on Uncle Hat's blacklist after becoming famous, and they were able to survive by performing at the Modern Sky Lab in Spring City.

Compared with the modernity of the original Earth, today's Rolling Stones are not even a bit lacking.

But Bian Lang felt that it was right to follow the modern pace and launch Rock Records Lab.

Especially after finding out Ou Lu's identity, he felt that this matter had to be put on the schedule.

So after returning to Chuncheng, Bian Lang immediately called Pan Jianhu to find Lao Tan.

If you want to quickly put this plan into reality in Spring City, working with Lao Tan is undoubtedly the best choice.

After listening to Bian Lang's plan and drinking a glass of Xibiqi, Lao Tan said without thinking: "Bian Lang, you are planning to take over our entire building." ah!"
