Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 475 Faces Band? Does Li Yiliang deserve this name?
This music fan is so cute sometimes.

Listening to the innocent voices of children talking and laughing, all the contempt for music in their hearts disappeared.

Naturally, no one would say why Bian Lang spent time and energy on a 10-year-old child.

Especially the people around Zhou Kun all thought the sound was nice and it went very well with the song.

Bian Lang did not step off the stage, he just stood on the edge of the stage, feeling the immersion that the overlap of time and space gave him that was unique to him and could not be shared with others.

His memory of when he was 10 years old is no longer very clear, but the song his eldest brother wrote for his daughter, just like the title, fills the verb "grow up" with rich things around him, making the 10 years This seemingly long timeline of more than 3000 days can be written thoroughly in a few hundred words.

The repeated word "day by day" blurs the concept of this long timeline, but it is an extremely life-oriented expression.

After Bian Lang gave this song as a signing gift, Tanxiao's children would follow Tan Ying to the company to rehearse every day after school.

Although Bian Lang didn't make any special arrangements, people like Su Kan, Ka Mian, Dayong, Li Li, and Dong You would take the initiative to read the music scores and act as accompaniments for the little girl.

So before the chorus, Dayong stepped into the drums position, and Kapok also took up the bass.

While chatting and laughing and singing: "I want to write my growth in my diary, lock all my troubles in the drawer, tell me all the secrets of summer, do you know, do you know...", the two of them He joined in smoothly.

When Dong Youbian, who played the blues harmonica, joined in, everyone present who originally thought it was an ordinary children's song could hear the background of blues music behind it.

And from the following interlude, Dili and Tan Ying played a bluesy solo, and everyone with children at the scene was in admiration!

Especially those musicians who are parents and mothers, they immediately started to mutter in their hearts: "This musician configuration is like a little rolling stone, it will be better when they release songs!"

"No, when I get back I will show tonight's video to my unsatisfied son. My guitar playing is no worse than that of the morinouqur player. Why am I not such an unsatisfactory child?"

When these words fell into Zhou Kun's ears, he got the most correct feedback: "It doesn't matter if you play the guitar well, the key is to sign with the Rolling Stones, and you have an uncle like Bian Lang who is like a monster!"

After waking up the dreamer with these words, it is estimated that Chen Shuting's business volume will increase a lot tonight.

"I will stick happiness on my wall, and I will also cry silently and sadly. The flowers are swaying with the most precious memories. I remember... I remember... we grow up day by day..."

When the singing and laughing songs and Su Kan's piano ended at the same time, Rolling Stone Music's second child singer made his stage debut inadvertently.

Seeing her chatting and laughing openly and bowing her thanks to the fans in the audience, she received warm applause and cheers in response.

Putting aside Bian Lang's halo as a songwriter, the quality of "We Grow Up Every Day" among children's songs is completely worthy of the applause and cheers.

Whether on Aquamarine or on the original Earth, Bian Lang felt that this song should be heard and sung by more people.

He hopes that this spark can bring about some changes in the children's music market.

Whether it is for children's music aesthetics or for parents' investment in their children's music education, it has a positive and positive guiding role.

On the original earth, Bian Lang encountered such a thing. In a children's music training institution in your province, a teacher who was a famous provincial composer took 10 from his parents to make a song for an 8-year-old student. An EP.

Through the introduction of the parent friend, I sent the song to Bianlang for review.

Just hearing the price, Bian Lang sighed: "10W, this price includes the cost of winning the prize abroad!"

Bian Lang didn't explain much about this sentence. In his opinion, this kind of behavior is no longer treating music as a business, but fraud.

You must know that it was 2017, and just in March of the previous year, Chen Hongyu’s crowdfunding goal for his new album was less than 3 yuan.

A certain rock veteran hired a Nordic production team to record the whole process in Europe, which cost less than 30 yuan. The key to the album was 11 songs!

As for this famous composer from your province, Bian Lang has never even heard of it...

So in the end, Bian Lang didn't even click on the demo, and just said to his friend: "If parents just want to leave a souvenir for their children, then let him put a zero on it! I won't listen to the song, it's not a People in the circle don’t have the ability to comment…”

In the end, the matter did go to court, but the outcome is unknown.

He just feels sad about some chaotic music education in China that aims at gold plating.

The same goes for Aqua Blue Star. Wang Wenhui used to do this kind of business, but he is a little more advanced and has to be international. In the future, he will be superior to others.

……

After the chatting and laughing performance ended, some music fans who only came to watch the performance began to leave. The "Yang Guanlei" people who were drinking outside finally had the opportunity to enter the bar.

Although I wasn’t able to enjoy the performance up close during the official time, I was able to sneak in, have a few drinks, and watch the musicians who were performing tonight.

Of course, the bar is still having Dong Youbian and Liu Huzhou signing autographs, so it’s already past 10 p.m., and people are still coming in at Jingwei Reclamation.

Thanks to the efforts of MSN and various PR influencers, the customer flow at Fanhua is not bad.

The booths where Internet celebrities are invited to check in are all full, but the small tables, which are expected to attract some real sales through natural flow of people, are still quite empty.

This is obviously a loss-making business. Compared with the real money and silver income from Jingwei Reclamation, the gap in Oulu's heart is not small.

Especially when he learned that the customer he invited had gone to the door opposite to sit and drink beer, he felt unhappy.

I don’t know if he drank too much tonight or for some reason, but he actually thought he could capture a wave of new music fans from Jingwei Reclamation, and then he arranged for the newly named Faces Band to appear.

When the waiter at Jingwei Reclamation saw the words "Face Band" started to appear on the big screen outside Fanhua, he quickly informed Hu Chen.

Hu Chen came out and looked at the electronic screen that broadcast the performance in the bar in real time for a while, and he basically made a judgment in his mind.

Having been able to open a bar on this street for more than 20 years, Hu Chen is by no means a shy person. I went back to the bar to get a bottle of good wine, and then headed towards the flowers.

Although he didn't get an invitation, if Ou Lu dared to come to his place to test before, then he, Hu Chen, also dared to go there.

As soon as he arrived at the door of Fanhua, the waiter recognized him. Although he knew that the visitor was not very kind, he still welcomed him in with a smile. About 10 minutes later, a video of the Faces band's performance appeared on Chen Shuting's phone. Looking at the big words "face" on the screen behind Tan Lian and Li Yiliang, she smiled a little evilly: "Bian Lang can really be a... It’s a fortune teller, but I don’t know what he plans to do?”

It turns out that after Bian Lang announced the formation of the Hedgehog Band at the New Year's Eve concert, he asked dozens of band names to be registered as trademarks, and one of them was "Face"!
Bian Lang knew how complicated it was to register a band's name on the original earth. Some bands can be said to be undercover to this day because their band names are not protected by law when engaging in commercial activities.

For example, Jiulian Zhenren did not apply because the word "Zhenren" involved religious sensitivity.

As for things like Corpse Burial Lake, Dark Prison Corpse Killing, Flesh Juice Machine, Mental Loss of Control, Mad Spirit, Cause of Death Pond, Underworld Burial, Death Contract, etc., don’t even think about it.

As for the Painful Faith band, it was only after they were simplified from "Painful Faith" that they were successfully registered.

The name of the band Faces is also the same as that of Pain Yang. At the beginning, the original name of Faces was "Dirty Faces". It was also simplified to Faces before they were successfully registered.

Bian Lang remembers that names such as "Landlord's Cat" and "White Paper Band" had not been successfully registered before he traveled through time. Ou Bo's "Sound Toy" was also quite funny. The last one that was successfully registered was the word "Sound Play"!
There is also the issue of lax registration of the band's name and trademark, which has led to a lot of legal troubles against Bo. The biggest commotion in the industry was the Buyi Band incident. It was not clear who was at fault, but Bianlang wanted to go solo and disband but did not want the musicians to continue to use the original band name. The lead singer unilaterally announced the disbandment during the tour. , this was done very well.

That is to say, in order to prevent these nonsense things from happening, Bian Lang made a clean cut. All the band names and trademarks he had set up with the Rolling Stones belonged to the company, and the remaining issues of Old Nanyin were left to Pan Jianhu to deal with.

Therefore, when registering the new Hedgehog Band, Bian Lang registered all the names of many well-known bands from the original earth, such as Pink Floyd, NIRVANA, The Beatles, AC/DC and other foreign bands, as well as Faces, Painful, and Heavy. The right to make statues, Nezha and so on.

If it is available here, there is no need to force it.

When Chen Shuting found Bian Lang at Zhou Kun's table and told Bian Lang about the matter, Bian Lang rarely got angry in front of outsiders: "Face Band? Is Li Yiliang worthy of this name?"

"Are you as beautiful as Brother Hui, who is nearly 60 years old, or do you have that bright voice that has remained unchanged for decades? How dare you call me a face?" Bian Lang thought in his heart, and drank half a bottle of Xibiqi in one go. Slightly suppressed the anger.

If someone else uses this name, Bian Lang won't be angry. Since he registered it himself, he can just inform them of the change.

But that was not possible for Li Yiliang. Combining the memories of the original owner, he could basically make up all the words Li Yiliang said to Tan Lian. This fly-like existence made Bian Lang feel sick when he thought about what he had done. He could not just let him change his name so easily, and the matter was over.

Seeing that Bian Lang was about to throw the bottle, Zhou Kun tried to persuade him: "What's the matter? Tell us and we'll find a solution for you together."

Bian Lang couldn't tell the matter directly, and couldn't find a suitable excuse, so he simply said directly: "Brother Kun, you also know that Rolling Stone plans to form a group of bands, and one of them is called Faces, and I have written all the songs. Okay! But Li Yiliang, who sold himself to Magic Disk, now has a band performing opposite, also called Faces."

Zhou Kun was also dumbfounded. He knew roughly what happened between Li Yiliang and Bian Lang, and he vaguely remembered that Bian Lang's band used to be called Mask.

"Bian Lang, did you and Li Yiliang have a band called Mask before?"

"Ah."

"Good guy, if you take off the mask, you'll be called the face. There's something about this guy. The song is still the same as the band's original one?"

"I don't know, I didn't pay attention."

"Wait a minute, you said that your songs have been written, and your name has also been registered?"

"Well, I've registered, but I'm still going through the process. I don't know if I can get it in the end!"

"Then you are so angry that you can sue him!"

"No, you can't do this. I'm going to change my mind..."

In this matter, Bian Lang felt that there was no reason or emotion to talk about, and he had to deal with it to death.

But he doesn't want to use the law as a last resort now, as this process will be too un-rock-and-roll!

"Sister Chen, please get an electronic poster. The Rolling Stones have formed a new band called 'Dirty Faces'. This band will be singing as a warm-up tomorrow!"

Hearing this name, everyone present laughed in amusement.

"Okay, what about the band members?"

"Me, Dayong, Brother Kaizi, Lili... we play hard rock!"

When it came to this, Chen Shuting had the score in her mind, and she didn't ask any questions about the song, so she went directly to arrange things.

Bian Lang also said hello to Zhou Kun and the others, and then went to find someone to rehearse.

None of them had drank much tonight, and they were all used to Bian Lang rehearsing new songs at short notice. But when they arrived at the rehearsal room, Bian Lang explained the ins and outs of the matter, and Dayong burst into laughter: "Lang! You are really awesome, you have a dirty face, I don't accept anyone but me when it comes to naming the band." Serve you!"

Huang Kai also laughed for a while, and after he stopped laughing, he held his waist and said: "Bian Lang, you are really awesome. You said you registered so many band names in one breath, how could you really let that person named Li pretend to be so? Last face!"

Li Li didn't say anything. After "Between Fingers", he felt that as long as Bian Lang didn't compete with him for his wife or his life, even if other things were obviously hitting the wall, he Li Li would stick with him until the end.

So he urged directly: "Hurry up and tell me which song in the music library, and try to finish the arrangement tonight. Don't do it too late. We can do it directly during the day tomorrow..."

But who would have thought that Bian Lang would just say: "Well, wait a minute, I'll write now!"

Upon hearing this sentence, the three of them all shouted in unison: "Fuck!"

Bian Lang said seriously: "Give me 15 minutes!"

Why is it 15 minutes and not some other time? Because when Brother Hui wrote the lyrics of this song, it really only took 15 minutes.

When it comes to Bianlang, he can not only write out the lyrics for you in 15 minutes, but also half of the simplified musical notation for Bianlang.

Dayong, who hadn't watched Bian Lang write a song live for a while, leaned his head over to see what kind of song Bian Lang was going to write this time.

When I saw Bian Lang writing on the paper: "The one who has always been conceited and self-interested, the one who is full of evil thoughts and covet, that is not me, the humble body...".

He couldn't help but say: "Xiao Lizi, you are a bad boy, you really deserve this!"
