Across the literary and art world

Chapter 288 A Bullet
Not taking risks in life is more dangerous than taking risks.

It is not easy to be positioned when moving.

After struggling for a while, Zhuang Dao reached out and picked up the phone, and dialed a series of numbers he knew by heart after a few seconds.

After a while, a voice full of vicissitudes but full of vigor came out from the receiver.

"Xiaodao, why did you remember to call me? I remember that your base is currently in the period of military training. What's wrong? You've neglected your duties."

Hearing this voice, Zhuang Dao smiled knowingly. On the other end of the phone was his company commander when he first joined the army, and now he is also his immediate boss. It should be his old superior, a few years older than him, but Commander who is like an older brother and an uncle.

"No report to the head of the team. It's just that some things have been settled and I want to report to you." Zhuang Dao also replied in a confident manner.

"Cough, cough, cough." The other end of the phone coughed a few times, as if he was choked by Zhuang Dao's words.

"Comrade Xiaodao, can you not be like this? Every time you make up your mind, you report to me. I think you are not reporting, but you are notifying. Although every time you make up your mind, it is the decision I want to make. , are all correct, but you have to give your chief a chance to make a decision after knowing it, and pay attention to whether you hear it next time."

"Report sir, the subordinates know." Zhuang Dao replied.

I repeated a line that I used every time I called to talk about things, which can be regarded as a special conversation starter.

"Okay, let me tell you what you made up your mind on this time, whether it's training new tricks or a strategic analysis plan. I'll see if I can ask the United Front Work Department to praise you again and give you credit for it." The head smiled and talked about the whole subject.

"I want to be a singer." Some emotions such as hesitation and hesitation were completely released when he was just struggling, and Zhuang Dao expressed his thoughts very steadily, briskly and directly.

The direct and unhesitating style of the soldiers and the army is often because they have thought about it before. The army is where the fists speak, but it does not mean that they have no brains.

The other end of the phone didn't use "what, say it again" to express that he couldn't accept it for a while, but just kept silent.

The microphone is connected to the box, and the box communicates through wireless and wired signals, allowing people at both ends of the microphone to communicate, but at the moment both ends are silent.

Zhuang Dao's silence is because Zhuang Dao can't say anything, and it takes time for people to understand and understand, and the other end is not understanding Zhuang Dao's words, but thinking about the reason why Zhuang Dao said these words from Zhuang Dao's mouth The process, and what consequences will result if you object or not, and whether such consequences can be tolerated...

One thing, no matter when, where and on whom, will never be just one thing.

Neither of them hung up the phone, they just held the microphone in silence for a long while, each thinking and organizing their words.

"Xiaodao, have you really made up your mind?" The other end of the phone didn't directly ask the reason, but first felt the determination from the answer of asking again, and then said something else.

"Decided."

"Art soldier or...?"

"It's not a literary soldier, it's a singer. But I'm still a soldier, so I want to report to the organization, can I have two jobs at the same time?"

The other end of the phone was silent again, very relieved and speechless, Zhuang Dao did not give up his status as a soldier, he was very happy, no one would be reluctant to give up such a subordinate with brains, force and emotion, Yu Gongyu private Zhuang Dao continued to serve as a soldier It's all good.However, the situation that Zhuang Dao wants to achieve sounds so awkward. It is not impossible to have two professions at the same time, but at least one must find one that is not contradictory. Although the two professions of singer and soldier are not contradictory , but it is definitely not compatible!

"Why do you want to be a singer? I know you have sung before, but the water in the music world is not only deep but also very muddy. You have to live a good life in the army, but you want to be a singer, to build an image, to cater to fans, to change yourself to adapt to the rules, I don't understand." After all, the other end of the phone couldn't hold back, and asked why, although he knew that Zhuang Dao's decision would not be changed, but this matter really needs to be given a reason first, inexplicable things, the importance of the reason is naturally conceivable.

"Because I met a person who convinced me with words and songs. I think it's right to be a pop singer in the army, release my feelings, and serve everyone for myself." Zhuang Dao said.

When he was just struggling, Zhuang Dao figured it out. A soldier is a bullet. Wherever the country needs it, it will be fired and divided wherever it is needed.But while the bullet is responsible for destroying the enemy, it can also be used as decorations, such as a shelf for small things on your desk.Bullet racks and wire racks are both racks, but as a soldier, the two are still different.To a certain extent, soldiers are really not ordinary people, so the needs are naturally not ordinary. If I can make some contributions to everyone, I naturally can't hesitate because of such and such things.

"Who?" He asked simply on the other end of the phone. Simplicity and ease of connection meant urgency.

"A name that you and I, and even the billions of people in the empire have just known but are familiar with, Lin Feng." Zhuang Dao said.

"Lin Feng, that genius music?" The other end was stunned for [-] seconds before asking directly.

"Report to the instructor, yes."

"How do you know him? Wait, he is the number one student in this year's college entrance examination. Couldn't the university he went to be Longteng, and the military training base he is in is your base?" Zhuang Dao's superior thought very quickly.

"Report to the instructor, it is like this." Zhuang Dao said.

"Then why did he fall in love with you? No, no, I mean, how did he know that you can sing?" My old officer on the other end of the phone made a slip of the tongue, and the first sentence was very ironic , Some want to pick things up.

"The story in the middle comes from his time off. I asked him to write and sing two songs, and the songs were very good. I wanted to ask him to release an album so that it could be circulated in the army. He didn't agree, he was very busy, and then he asked me to do it. Recording, he heard from Zhao Shu that I had sung, and he fell in love with my voice during the audition." Zhuang Dao said.If things are simple, it’s actually just a matter of one sentence.

The other end entered a state of silence again, digesting Zhuang Dao's words, and the amount of information in one breath is indeed not small.

For a while.

"What are the two songs he sang? It actually made you want to sing it in the army." The superior is the superior, and he grasped the point at once.

"The green flower in the army, the eternal brother, touched our love and heart very much." Zhuang Dao said.

"Send me any finished songs, let me listen too." Hearing Zhuang Dao's words, the other end paused and said.

"There is a song, I sang it." Zhuang Dao said.

"You sang, you didn't just notify this time after you decided, but after you took action. Your heart was bewitched, so you sent it first." The other party said, there was not much emotion in the voice, but , The words are indeed as good as my writing.Killing and punishing heart.

"Yes, sir. Then, see you later?" Zhuang Dao didn't say much, he believed that his old chief would understand clearly after listening.

"I'll board the TT in the army in a while, and use the online video." The other said.

"Yes, sir. Goodbye, sir." Zhuang Dao hung up the phone.

Turned on the computer, boarded and came to TT, military TT, a unique chat tool within the military, developed by the scientific research department of the military, equivalent to the ee used by civilians.Although it is also used for chatting or something, but there are no small things in the military, and some secrets are leaked inadvertently, that would be bad.Of course, the research and development of TT did not take much effort, but the communication channel and the singleness of confidentiality were changed on the basis of ee.

He took the USB flash drive from the bullet rack and inserted it into the computer. After a few operations, Zhuang Dao sent the data files of the two songs to the old superior. In a few seconds, it showed that the reception was complete.

Then, he waited quietly, Zhuang Dao looked at the iron rack of bullets on the table, as if he was passing the time in a daze.Wait for the officer to finish listening.

……

dong~dong~
After about 6 minutes, Zhuang Dao clicked on TT's video button to invite the old superior's video.

The video invitation did not receive an immediate response. It was not that the network was slow, but that there was no response there, and there seemed to be something wrong.

After several long dong~dong~ sounds, the video received a response. After a splash screen, two images, one large and one small, appeared on Zhuang Dao's computer.

The layout of that end is similar to that of Instructor Zhuang's office, except that the things on the table are different, and the layout format is basically the same.On the screen, a handsome man in his thirties, dressed in a green military uniform with two bars and two stars hanging on his shoulders, is Zhuang Dao's old superior, but his eyes seem a little red.

rub!
As soon as the screen was turned on, Zhuang Dao stood up and saluted.

"Hello, Captain!"

"Hello!" The old superior also stood up and saluted.

"Okay, sit down." After returning to the ceremony, the old superior sat down and said.

After sitting down, Zhuang Dao didn't speak, but just looked at his old superior, waiting for the leader to speak.

"I have listened to both songs. They are very good, very good. If Lin Feng can still come up with such songs, then your choice is really right. The military needs such songs."

As he said that, the old superior took a sip, listening to the song just now made his mood a little low. Unlike Zhuang Dao, he saw off his comrades-in-arms one after another. There are quite a few, some are his comrades-in-arms for a year, some are the troops he led, and some are soldiers under him... Just like the year passes every year, the farewell is almost every year.

Soldiers are all brothers, and the feelings in my heart are once again evoked by the singing, how can I not shed tears.

"Then, sir, do you mean that you support me?" Zhuang Dao's always stable face changed a little, even because of the support of the old chief, but also because of the lethality of those two songs to the soldiers.Sure enough, the touching song is the most powerful!
Everything is most afraid of emotion, easy to hurt, and easy to change.

"After you write a written application and fax it to me, I will explain the situation to the above. There should be no problem. But I want to remind you that even if you set foot in the music scene, your job is still a soldier. You train and study on weekdays and protect your family during wartime. It is your mission to defend the country."

"Report sir, Zhuang Dao dare not forget this point." Zhuang Dao's body shook and he said with a straight face.

"That's good, so you have to manage the time for recording the album. Besides, I think you can reduce the promotion of the song if you can. It's better not to show up." The old superior nodded and continued.

"I know that the essence of the song is to serve everyone, and my personal gains and losses are not my goal." Zhuang Dao said.

"Very good, so I can rest assured that I will have more bargaining chips with the above. Well, bullets don't have to hit the enemy. It's good to have a firecracker in a peaceful age." said the old superior.

"I see, please don't worry, I will sing well, this firecracker will be very loud." Zhuang Dao said solemnly.

"Okay, I'm relieved now. You should prepare these two songs first, and they will probably be uploaded to the Xinsheng Music website this afternoon. After all, your matter is big or small. As for the money, you can do it yourself. said the superior.

"Yes, I understand." Zhuang Dao replied.

"Let's leave it at that, let's talk about gossip and family affairs after the Chinese New Year." Nodding, the old superior who was satisfied with Zhuang Dao's attitude said.

"Goodbye, sir." Zhuang Dao stood up again and saluted.

……

When there is waiting in our life, we will be more diligent, even if these efforts are meaningless, such as watching the time.

After the rest whistle was blown, and Jiaozi and the instructors went to rest and eat at the same time, Zhuang Dao continued to sit in his office, holding a used bullet with only the casing left, and turning it in his hand.

It seems that if you turn a few more times, the time will move faster, and the phone will ring in your ears immediately.

in the afternoon.

Zhuang Dao listened to the chant from the railing of the corridor, in their hearts they should be the tortured proud sons, and his heart was empty. After listening to the chant for a while, after smashing many bottles at the shooting training ground, Zhuang Dao Dao's heart was still empty.

If you have something in mind, as long as you care about it, it will be difficult to concentrate when you are doing other things.

What's more, the road to the music world that is destined to have some success in the music world is just beginning, so it would be too strange not to be nervous.The door to fame and fortune is about to open, and things that are extremely vulgar but will make people willing to be vulgar are coming. Can the eminent monk really be calm?You know, being able to resist temptation and being as still as water are two completely different things.

It's not anxious, and it's not calm, but after all, it's hard to wait with nothing to do. When three o'clock in the afternoon was close to four o'clock, Zhuang Dao, who stood a complete bullet and a shell case on the table and stared blankly, finally received a call. .

"How is the matter, sir?" Taking a deep breath and calming down, Zhuang Dao picked up the phone and asked with the microphone close to his ear.

"The higher-ups agreed, but the higher-ups have imposed great restrictions. All aspects have been sorted out into documents. I'll fax them to you later. If you think it's acceptable, you can sign. Then the song can be uploaded. Okay, I I won't say much, I'll talk when I have time, goodbye." This time, the old superior didn't say much and was very straightforward.

"Goodbye."

Not long after saying goodbye to the old superior, a fax was spat out by the fax machine at the side, and it was full of words.However, although there are many words, the format is quite neat. The official document is definitely the best interpretation of the word formal in time.

Picking up the document from the fax machine and putting it on the table, Zhuang Dao slowly read it line by line. No matter how anxious he is, he must read and comprehend the rules properly. Being within the rules, you must understand , the decision of the superior is the key point.

"There are more than 20 restrictions. I really don't know what these old men think. It's okay not to show your face and not shoot MVs, but what does it mean that you can't sign contracts with outside musicians and maintain a high degree of independence and confidentiality? Even my name is not allowed to be disclosed without permission, and I am not from the National Security Bureau, thankfully I was only told not to say that I was not allowed to have a fake identity again..."

Looking at each item one by one, Zhuang Dao finally understood why the old superior just withdrew it so quickly. It must be embarrassing not to talk about this document. A large group of middle-level leaders discussed it for so long and came to a conclusion It turned out to be like this, it's all trivial things, no wonder!

The trivial ones are not disturbing, but it is enough to disturb people whether it is read or done.

……

"Xiaodao, you can't blame me for that document, and I don't want to. If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself. You said that the two songs written were sensational, and you still sang so sensational that everyone listened to it. I am full of emotions, and my thoughts are flying like recalling my childhood. It would be nice to delay the discussion between my mother-in-law and mother until tomorrow. When I am sentimental, I like to study things in a small way. How much do you take care of me? , but it’s not embarrassing to do it except for repeated repetitions! Actually, it’s pretty good, haha.”

In the office of Zhuang Dao's old superior, the old superior who had just finished the meeting to discuss and decide on Zhuang Dao's matter was busy calling and faxing Zhuang Dao, after he was free, he muttered to himself.Thinking about Zhuang Dao's appearance when he read the document can be regarded as self-entertainment.

"Is this group of military officers idle and have nothing to do? This matter is..., but it's okay, just agree. Is this a way to vent my emotions on my side, and to make such an official official document, It's really..."

After reading the document, Zhuang Dao's unsmiling face, which had never shown too many expressions, finally changed, and he couldn't laugh or cry.The last few sentences are too speechless.In addition to the normal holidays, Zhuang Dao is given a three-month vacation every year without affecting the normal work. However, during these three holidays, Zhuang Dao has to go to other bases to hold voluntary concerts. Teach and pass on songs.Originally, it felt pretty good to just listen to the three holidays, but going to charity performances is nothing.It's not that Zhuang Dao didn't want to go to the charity show to sing, he decided to agree to Lin Feng to sing for the sake of singing.Instead, they all talked about vacations, and arranged tasks, just say that special tasks are not enough.

When people's hearts are touched, when their emotions are released, their sincerity is easily disturbed.

　Five thousand.

　　The content of this period of time is all songs, and the following will change.

　　In addition, the [-] words that are owed will be filled in tomorrow morning.

　　NO.15, the middle of the month.The mood is a little tragic.
