Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 617 Trip
The following interlude begins to enter the realm of Hedgehog, with Bian Lang and Strauss playing at the same time, and the overloaded electric guitar and manic drum beats make it sound a bit like heavy metal.

Once again, the diverse styles of this song are carried through to the end.

After the 8-bar cycle, Teacher Shi ended the interlude with a glissando while pulling the tremolo.

Together with the previous rap, these two parts form the transition of the song.

Just when everyone was expecting an even more powerful climax chorus, all the instruments on the stage stopped playing at the same time, and Ding Ding's clean baby voice once again pierced the night sky of Banna tonight.

"Ah..." A long note dragged on for 4 seconds, and then with the strumming of Bian Lang's electric guitar, Ding Ding continued to sing: "Mangbala Naxi... Come... Reminisce in the sky..."

Then all the instruments join in at the same time: "Speak softly, breathe softly, afraid of waking you up... Walk slowly, sway slowly, our hearts are close... The stars in the sky are entwined... between you and me..."

"The sound of firecrackers, crackling, seems to be very worried... I can't sleep, tossing and turning, just worried... It's okay, quickly get into mom's arms... You are very curious about the whole world... You are nostalgic for all things and all life in the world... You are ignorant... You are weak and powerless... You are shy, and mom has to protect you every day..."

After hearing this, many non-Rolling Stones musicians in the circle felt that the previous transition was a bit abrupt.

Bian Lang had the same feeling when he first heard it. But before Shi Lu shared this story with her, Zijian responded on Yuncun using his music account:
"Many people are puzzled as to why the scene changes in the middle. The middle part of this song expresses the sleepless night of the Spring Festival when the mother coaxes her child to sleep and then goes out to join the Dai people in celebrating the festival happily. When she comes back to visit her child, she sighs and expresses some wishes for the future. Shi Lu told me about this creative process, but she didn't tell anyone else. How awesome... So I think this is absolutely amazing. The arrangement is so natural and visual. It's perfect, very Hedgehog!"

So Zijian wrote the last four lines of lyrics for this song:

In this magical time, there is hope for joy and adventure...

In the noisy city, there is an eternal encounter...

In my lifetime, I always have a close friend by my side...

At this beautiful age, enjoy sincere love..."

Ding Ding is still the lead singer, but this time all the other members of the Hedgehog band provide chorus for her!
They sang with the effect of a trio harmony, and after the last ending note ended in unison, the only sound in the speakers was the tinkling breathing.

At this moment, Bian Lang, who was carrying an electric guitar, took the lead and turned around to applaud Ding Ding.

Having completed her first lead vocal performance in her life, she didn't care how many people were watching her. She pulled off her in-ear monitors and ran out from behind the drum set.

After throwing the pair of drumsticks she was using today to the fans in the audience, she excitedly rushed to Bian Lang and gave him a hug. With tears in her eyes, she thanked him, “Thank you, Brother Lang. You’ve given me the title of the first female drummer and lead singer in the Chinese rock scene!”

"This is just the beginning! Come on, there will be times when you will shine!"

Honestly speaking, there is still a big gap between Ding Ding's drumming and Shi Lu's on the original Earth. After all, the drum set is an instrument that requires a lot of basic skills. The difference in age will come naturally when the skills are acquired.

But Ding Ding's voice is really better than Shi Lu's. Shi Lu's vocal range is narrow, while Ding Ding can sing 3 octaves, but she has never practiced systematically before. Another point is that Shi Lu, the rock mom, looks cool, but her intermittent love brain is really a headache.

When they were colleagues in their previous life, Bian Lang knew a little about it.

I also understand that if I were to write about the history of Hedgehog's band's breakups and reunions over the years, the story behind it would probably not pass muster. And the melodrama index is no less than those idol dramas in Taiwan in the early years.

Ding Ding, if you watch it now, you won’t have this problem.

According to Bian Lang's guess, this cool girl will sooner or later become the leader of the lesbian circle.

Finally, Strauss and Tong Qi lifted Ding Ding up with one hand each, allowing her to thank the fans from a commanding position.

The New Pants waiting behind were envious:
Kapok: "Ding Ding has really made it this time!"

Goat: "But there is no other way. It is impossible for you to ask Brother Lang to sing this song!"

Kong Liang: "From the rehearsal till now, this is the most stable performance of this girl. It's not easy."

Su Kan: "Little Ding Ding has really made great progress!"

When the two bands met each other after going off the stage, Ding Ding was so excited that she jumped directly on her two former teammates.

Mumian: "Qin, there's a qin hanging behind you, take it easy!"

Ding Ding: "Thank you so much everyone. It was not until I joined the Rolling Stones family that I understood what it meant to play music freely!"

Su Kan: "Come down quickly, we can talk after this is over!"

While Ding Ding excitedly ran to the next target of thanks, Bian Lang walked over to Heyang, handed him the pick he had just used and said, "Do it well. If the fans recognize you at the scene, you can secure your position as the lead singer!"

Shanyang was actually a little nervous before, after all, the previous lead singer was Bian Lang, and he was afraid that if he couldn't keep up, the future of the band would be ruined. But when he saw that Bian Lang dared to let Ding Ding be the lead singer, his nervousness was relieved a lot.

No matter how Ding Ding sings, this is sending a message to everyone: "The Rolling Stones are not afraid to try!"

Thinking of this, the goat felt that his adrenaline level at the moment was much higher than usual.

So when he sang "People Without Ideals Don't Feel Sad", the facial expressions and body movements from Bian Lang's perspective, which were even more into the role than Peng Lei's, were remembered by netizens who watched the lead singer's performance for the first time.

“I have to say, even though it doesn’t feel like the same style, I feel like this lead singer can handle it!”

"In fact, I think he is more energetic than Bian Lang, perhaps younger and more rebellious!"

"The uneducated man is not sad! He is not sad!"

In BJ, Chen Shuting, who was staring at the live broadcast room and reading the comments, smiled and said, "It's basically fine. After the kneeling scene of "Summer of the Band" is broadcast, Yang Yang should be able to secure the position of lead singer."

Liang Kuan beside her was not paying attention to this matter. She was still thinking about the song "Mangbala Naxi", a typical song with lyrics from a maternal perspective. What was Bian Lang thinking when he was creating it?
This is a question she is very curious about!
After all, they will soon be a family. From her perspective as an agent, no matter whether this song will become popular in Banna, it will most likely become a must-have song on the playlist for those rock people in the rock circle who are already parents.

Especially those female musicians who are single parents raising children! In her opinion, musicians like Bian Lang who can create any kind of subject matter are like nuclear-level strategic weapons. The frequency and method of his songs are too casual.

Thinking of this, she said to Chen Shuting: "Shuting, do you think Bian Lang is too casual in his songs sometimes?"

After hearing this, Chen Shuting thought for a while before replying seriously: "I think it's okay. I don't think it's too much for Bian Lang to play more rock songs for others. After all, Rolling Stone is a rock company. When you come, you can talk about his business scope in the pop circle..."

"Well, we should indeed establish some cooperation with more companies, so that when we are targeted by someone, we can have more allies. I think your cooperation with DGM abroad is not on the right track. They have so many artist resources, some of which are still quite popular in China.

According to the nature of these domestic studios and TV stations, if we invite a few capable people to come and beat up these domestic entertainment stars, they will probably like this script very much. In the past, the communication channels were not smooth and foreign countries did not understand our market. Now we have the bridge of Rolling Stone..."

Liang Kuan's experience and vision give her a different perspective on the overall situation than Chen Shuting.

Chen Shuting nodded frequently as she listened, and was also thinking about whether to make any adjustments to the current company structure after Liang Kuan and Guo Sichu joined.

After all, according to Bian Lang's personality, if he wanted to split up the Rolling Stones and Blueberry, then the rock and pop music businesses would not be mixed together for a long time. After Guo Sichu came in, whether he wanted to set up a studio or a label, it would be a good choice.

"Anyway, after we have settled all the ties here, we can sit down and discuss this matter in detail."

After getting Chen Shuting's approval, Liang Kuan changed the subject and asked, "What do you think of those three girls?"

Chen Shuting was not surprised at all that Liang Kuan said this. If Liang Kuan really had no reaction at all, then Chen Shuting should be really worried.

"Bian Lang has already talked to them. They don't want to sign with a company yet. They want to try it on their own..."

Hearing this answer, Liang Kuan shook his head and laughed, "After all, you are still young. The relaxed environment of Rolling Stone is like a nursing home compared to other companies. If it weren't for the god like Bian Lang, I really can't imagine how the living space of Rolling Stone would be squeezed!

Since Bian Lang has spoken, how about letting me handle this? Bian Lang is not suitable to speak again, but after today's live broadcast, how many companies will focus on the triplets. This kind of band has a strong hype potential, and it is a scarce talent in the market. At that time, those companies will not tell you about the rules and ethics..."

Chen Shuting agreed with this. As long as someone is in the entertainment industry, no matter if they are singing or doing anything else, they will naturally have a group of fans. Not to mention that Bian Lang personally extended an olive branch, which proved that Bian Lang had some ideas in mind.

She guessed that based on Bian Lang's personality, he might have already thought about what song he would write.

"Okay, wait until this music festival is over. If there's no progress, you can go and have the chat!"

In fact, Liang Kuan’s idea is not only correct, but some companies have already begun investigating the background of these three girls.

……

At the scene, the last song of New Pants was naturally the advertising song "Do You Want to Dance" by its sponsor Xibiqi!
Amid the chorus of “You, you, you wanna dance?”, the scene was like a pot of boiling water, and the fans were like little dumplings bouncing up and down in the water.

It felt like a water gun used to cool it down. Instead of suppressing the bubbles that were about to overflow, it was like adding fuel to the fire, making the feeling more and more exciting.

In the hot and humid climate of Banna, the goat's entire body is covered in sweat, as if it had been blessed with water splashing.

"Do You Want to Dance" was originally planned to be the last song, but the fans in the audience didn't seem to want to leave at all.

After dancing the last section with the fans, Goat stood for a few seconds with his hands on his hips, breathing heavily, and then waved goodbye to the fans as planned.

"Encore!" was heard as expected. Shantui kept looking back at the audience. Just as he was about to take off his headphones, he heard the voice of the director: "New Pants, if you want to come back, just sing. There's no problem with the time!"

Several people who were halfway through the walk were all stunned. According to the original arrangement, the encore was for the Rolling Stones to sing a new song, so they were not mentally prepared at all.

Although they were not mentally prepared, they could still handle the singing if they had to. As for the Rolling Stones, they didn't need to worry about it. If the fans in the audience were not crazy, they would definitely shout until the closing song was played before leaving.

After a brief discussion, they finally chose "Fireworks" between the new song and the old song.

Looking at the people walking back, the shouts of "Encore" from the audience began to speed up again.

But some fans were stunned:
"Uh! New Pants is back, so can Oh Bian Lang also come back?"

"I don't know about that. Anyway, as long as the broadcast doesn't drive us away, we can just keep shouting!"

At this time, the entire lineup of the Rolling Stones was already waiting below. The reason they let New Pants return first was to let the Goats show their face in front of the fans more often.

Several big names of the Rolling Stones were standing at the door of the resting tent. Dayong asked, "Guess what they will sing?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the keyboard prelude coming from the speakers.

Then I heard everyone else reply in unison: "Fireworks!"

"Damn! The timing is so damn tight!"

Those who had experienced the Rolling Stones Music Festival began to recall the scene at that time, and then sang along to the end: "Now I am a little drunk, as drunk as a wild pigeon that can't find its direction... So I began to change, becoming like a ball of violent and fiery fireworks..."

With tears in its eyes, the goat completed its last leap and walked backstage, waving goodbye to the fans in the audience: "Goodbye, Xishuangbanna! We will be back!"

In addition to the applause from the audience, there was still an endless stream of calls for encores, and they were getting louder and louder!

But just when Bian Lang and the others were preparing to go on stage, an accident happened. For some unknown reason, all the lights in the entire Splashing Water Square suddenly went out.

"Oh no! I'm afraid there really is nothing left this time. The power has been turned off!"

"Um, what does this mean?"

However, less than half a minute later, before the fans could fully complain, a voice came from a loudspeaker somewhere: "Everyone, please do not stand still or move, to avoid a stampede. The power supply will be restored immediately!"
