Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

As the sound of electric guitar strumming sounded, naked-eye 3D images began to be projected on the stage.

Pictures of social media account avatars flew across the stage, finally forming the shape of a pair of pants, and then they walked on the stage with big strides to the music.

Although Shanyang had not yet started singing, the previous popularity of New Pants and this eye-catching stage once again aroused the emotions of the fans who were somewhat exhausted.

Many professional music fans also recognized Kong Liang as a strong contender for the title of China's Drum King, so the cheers and applause became as enthusiastic as when the show just started.

The band that just finished performing had not yet left the Music Summer Hall. Facing the momentum, the keyboard player, who was the soul of the band, shook his head and said, "It's still us who are not good enough. A tiger with its teeth pulled out is not a sick cat, and the new pants without Bian Lang haven't become old!"

Among the ordinary fans, there was one who watched the performance with a microscope. After observing for a few seconds, he suddenly screamed, pointed at the stage and said excitedly: "My social media Weibo profile picture is in those pictures..."

Her voice was not loud, but it was very sharp. Although it did not affect the goats performing on the stage, the people around her could still hear it clearly.

But the picture was moving, and even if they turned their eyes into a pendulum and moved it left and right, it was difficult for them to find any clues related to themselves.

At this moment, the goat, who was playing the electric guitar, walked to the microphone, looked at the audience with a stern look, and sang in a deep voice: "Brave you, standing here, your face is thin but proud... In this faraway place, there is no one to accompany you, only fantasies and worries..."

Although a new lead singer was chosen and Shanyang's voice was not much similar to Bian Lang's, the strange Taiwanese accent, combined with the short-haired man with a mustache, made the scene on the stage so complete.

If Bian Lang sings about moving forward despite unwillingness, then Shan Yang's lines are about rising up after recognizing the reality.

"Boring, insignificant, against an unfair world... Rock and roll that couldn't continue, farewell that ended in unhappiness..."

Here, Shanyang and Bian Lang discussed changing the lyrics, not only to avoid criticism of the program during the review, but also to express their true feelings.

Whatever the reason, he had some opinions about the hesitation and retreat of several group members.

Although there are some differences in the environment between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, after seeing the Rolling Stones, he felt that the self-proclaimed independent rock spirit of Taiwan was really a bit nonsense.

Moreover, the creative environment and space that the Rolling Stones can provide now are no worse than those they provide in Taiwan.

Thinking of this, the next line of the song "Yan Shan" burst out with the keyboard, bass and drums: "After I fell, I dared not look back, and I could not see my friends again... Some people have fallen, some have gone crazy, and some have gone with the wind. I am sad..."

The voice, which was loud and clear at the beginning, showed signs of choking when singing the three words "I'm sad".

The sentence "Some have fallen, some have gone crazy, some have gone with the wind..." has undoubtedly brought up the scars of many people in the circle.

Bian Lang was one of them during the preparation period. I didn’t think about it in this way when I listened to it before, and I was not in this mood when I sang it later.

But now, listening to the goat singing, Bian Lang, who had died once, drifted back to his original Earth.

Among my former friends in the rock circle of Earth, there are more than one or two who have fallen. Some have gone crazy, such as He Yong from the Three Great Rock Bands.

Apart from Huang Jiaju, Zhang Ju, Zhao Lao Da, Zhao Yingjun, Gu Saner and other famous people who followed the wind, the one closest to Bian Lang was Ai Yong.

Of course, there is also himself...

I don’t know if Ai Yong has the same luck as me and can be reborn in another world, where he plays his sanxian and sings Kawa’s songs with his bare chest.

This song is quite familiar to both fans of New Pants and fans of Bian Lang.

The first serious live performance was at the Hai Cai Hua Music Festival, and the performance at that time was completely different from the temperament of Shan Yang's singing today. Even at the Rolling Stone Music Festival later, Bian Lang's performance did not have the "tragic" beauty of Shan Yang's current performance!

Perhaps when Bian Lang was leaving the Novice Village, he was actually already on the verge of reaching the maximum level. When he sang this song, it was more of an encouraging empathy. Although it would be warm, it would not necessarily be as unforgettable as what the Goat sang at this moment.

The interlude of the four major instruments continued, and Bian Lang couldn't help but think of the version sung by Peng Kuazi in "Summer of the Band". The configuration of three small and one large string instruments, coupled with Peng Kuazi's shaking head and lifeless movements, was simply a king bomb.

However, at this moment, the pants made up of countless social account avatars suddenly fell apart.

One by one, the images were enlarged and started to play in rotation. Some people were confused and uncertain, trying to confirm whether it was their own avatar. Some were secretly regretting why they chose a common avatar like MOM. Some fans were pleasantly surprised to see their own unique avatar.

At this time, Zhou Ketong, who was in the staff area below the stage, was looking at the expressions of these fans and was extremely happy.

When DGM's visual team approached the band to discuss the stage presentation, the band members were basically in a state of random responses.

In the end, it was she, the prospective agent, who thought about it all night and came up with a plan that was accepted by everyone. Now, looking at the results, she felt relieved.

Meanwhile, Chen Shuting, who was in another area, smiled and said to Liang Kuan, "This time the lead singer change is a sure thing. Xinlu can go on tour completely independently this time."

Liang Kuan then asked, "Does that mean Bian Lang will completely get rid of this band from now on?"

"How is that possible? This is just one album. Bian Lang plans to release at least three albums for New Pants..."

Before Chen Shuting finished her words, Liang Kuan followed up with another sentence: "We should be able to finish the matter by then, so let me lead the band!"

Hearing this unexpected statement, Chen Shuting looked at Liang Kuan in surprise and asked, "Are you planning to find a regular accompaniment band for Guo Sichu?"

It’s no wonder that Chen Shuting thought so, because after the readjustment, the New Pants’ ability in playing musical instruments is indeed not weak.

Kong Liang's skills are well-known in the technical circle. Su Kan is a classical musician, and anyone with a keyboard can play. Yang Yang's guitar skills are also impeccable. After six months of hard work and practice, Mu Mian has also been trained by Huang Kai to be as steady as an old dog. Although the configuration is a bit thin, it is definitely enough to serve as the fixed backbone of Guo Sichu's accompaniment band.

But Liang Kuan really didn't think so. First of all, she had never led a band before. Since she wanted to integrate into the Rolling Stones, she had to think about finding a band to familiarize herself with the business.

The second reason is that Guo Sichu doesn’t have that many things to do, but it would be a waste if she didn’t use so many resources.

The third reason is naturally because New Pants has the shadow of Bian Lang, and she also wants to bring out a band of similar status in addition to Queen, which is also a way to fill her career as a manager.

As for the Rolling Stones, she would not consider it. For an agent of her level, she can understand many things after just a few glances. The current compatibility between Bian Lang and Chen Shuting is such that no one can keep up with them. To put it more seriously, if they change people, the band will be half ruined.

Not to mention his resources in the circle, Bian Lang's personality of doing whatever he wants is more troublesome than Guo Sichu, the Buddhist woman.

"No, when the Rolling Stones come, we can form any kind of accompaniment band, so there's no need to have a fixed team. Besides, I know that the Rolling Stones have a plan for two lead singers, and Chuchu is the strongest candidate. I just want to make a breakthrough in the band circle..."

Chen Shuting thought for a moment and waved her hand. "If you want to, wait until Hedgehog becomes independent and I'll let you take care of it. Or you can go to the Compass girls. I've decided to hand over New Pants to that little girl Zhou Ketong. Although her experience and resources are just the tip of the iceberg, I think she understands New Pants. For a band, this is more important than anything else!"

After hearing this, Liang Kuan did not feel offended. Instead, he began to think seriously: "How can we know a band well?"

However, just as she had this thought, she was interrupted by the goat's next song: "I have to, not go to work, in a corner of the building... the girl in the cubicle, will become beautiful after a long time... I will marry her, and take me to the small town to celebrate the New Year... Forget about the era of rock and roll..."

From the moment this song started, the atmosphere in the preparation room became a little different.

For these musicians, this song is very familiar, even if they can't sing every word. In addition, with Bian Lang, the silent lead singer, many people sang along with it.

When they heard this sentence, about half of the people burst into tears.

“Forget about that era of rock and roll that will never be repeated…” This line expresses the mood of many rock singers who choose to bow their heads in the face of reality.

Those who are here have more or less experienced the unpleasant things such as members leaving the band and the band reorganizing. Some musicians can even be said to have returned to their lives before they even experienced the era of rock and roll.

When they took off their leather jackets, cut their long hair, sealed the eyes with studs on their bodies, and put on long pants and shirts, was the original rock soul sealed?

There is actually no right or wrong in this question. It is just a choice made by adults. But at such special times, people will suddenly use this point to burst their tear glands.

These musicians who had experienced departure had no time to hide from the camera at this moment. They just stared blankly at the broadcast screen, letting the tears slide down their faces.

"After I fell, I didn't dare look back. People who were hurt by society...some fell, some went crazy, and some were gone with the wind..."

After accumulating power for this sentence, the Goat gave people the feeling that he was about to explode. He, who was originally standing still to output, began to jump up: "Those short-lived brilliance are exploding fireworks. That dazzling flame is burning you and me..."

As the lyrics progressed, the images of the social media avatars began to burn, and the stage seemed to be really burning under the orange-red glow!

"That unforgettable love always brings me pain, and that dull life becomes hot because of you... Woo..."

During the preparation period, many people raised their hands and sang along with tears in their eyes. Especially those musicians who already have families and ordinary partners who silently support them!

At this time, Pan Jianhu and Du Juan, who were not sitting together in the professional music fans' seats, could not help but look at each other. The moment their eyes met, Pan couldn't stop crying.

During the interlude as the chorus melody gradually changed and progressed, Pan Jianhu stood up and walked through several people, "drove away" Qi Yue, pulled Du Juan up, and started waving to the rhythm.

Amid the waves of music fans, Liangzi was so moved that he climbed onto the stage and fell backwards, making a slight dive, which caused another big wave to stir up the already excited crowd.

The crowd carried him around the stage, and several music fans were envious of him.

Liu Xiaokui, who was really itching to do it, looked at Niu Boyi, then pointed at Liangzi who was rising and falling in the crowd, meaning to ask if I could do the same?

Niu Boyi just waved his hand, then leaned over to his ear and said a few words.

Liu Xiaokui nodded seriously, then stood up and jumped up on the spot.

After the interlude, the main song sounded again: "Brave you, standing here, your face is thin but proud..."

Now it is no longer just the solo of Goat. Not only have the other members of the band joined in the chorus, but the fans in the audience have also started to sing along at the top of their lungs: "Those short-lived brilliance are exploding fireworks, that dazzling flame is burning you and me..."

When the climax arrived, the goat, feeling that his emotions had reached their peak, suddenly took the microphone from the stand and walked to the edge of the stage.

I originally thought it was just a simple interaction, but who would have thought that the goat would actually kneel down in front of the stage and just stretch the microphone straight towards the bottom of the stage.

This kneeling not only made the fans in the audience cry, but more than 80% of the people in the preparation room also cried.

Especially Bian Lang! This scene is so familiar!

On the stage of the first season of the original Earth Summer of Music, Peng Kuzi also knelt like that at the end, and I don’t know how many fans and people in the circle cried. Bian Lang himself also had tears in his eyes every time he watched it.

This kneeling is not to the sky, the earth, or the parents, but just to allow the microphone to be closer to the fans!

In a different time and space, the Goat made a reappearance without any psychological preparation on Bian Lang's part!

It made Bian Lang burst into tears!

Bian Lang stood up and led the singing with a crying voice, and at the same time said to Peng Kuzi in his heart: "There is someone who is as sentimental as you who has taken over. Don't worry about the future of New Kuzi here!"
