Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory
Chapter 557 Do you look down on me or on Bian Lang?
Bian Lang and his friends have no idea how netizens will interpret this.
But they originally planned to leave after the performance, but Chen Shuting told them: "The flight has been rescheduled to tomorrow morning. CCTV wants to interview, and the organizers of the conference want to thank..."
Then everyone else looked at Bianlang, and it felt like what they were going to say was: "Then you stay, we'll go surf with the wheel!"
So Lunzi spoke first: "Brother Lang, this should have nothing to do with us, I will do my duty as a good host and take everyone to visit Qin Island!"
Before Bian Lang could say anything, Chen Shuting interrupted him: "Lun Zi, I'm afraid you can't leave. I think you have something to do with this matter!" After saying that, she handed the phone to Lun Zi to see.
This time, the Rolling Stones were once again out of the circle on a large scale, so although Li Zheng’s post was not very eye-catching, it still sparked some discussion after being used by some people with ulterior motives.
Many netizens are still very tolerant, but some people who say the grapes are sour because they can't eat them started to complain.
My point of view is that such occasions should be reserved for those respectable industry people rather than the families of the Rolling Stones members.
Lunzi started yelling as soon as he saw it: "No, Brother Lang, why didn't you tell me?"
Bian Lang was also confused when he asked: "What's the matter? I didn't tell you?"
When everyone saw the wheel like this, they came over and asked, "What happened?"
"Kumakum's parents..."
After Lunzi finished speaking and everyone understood the situation, Chen Shuting continued to explain to everyone: "The ticket was given to Mu Mian by me. I can handle this matter, but I think Lunzi, you have to..."
"Well, that guy must be at the scene. I'll find a way to find him now!"
"Okay, then you go first. I'll go talk to Mumian's parents. Hopefully, by the time they find out, the matter will have come to a conclusion!" Chen Shuting was about to leave after she finished speaking. Bian Lang thought for a moment and said, "I'll go with you..."
But after searching for a while and finally meeting someone, they discovered that Mu Mian's parents were being faced by a camera and a reporter was interviewing them.
Seeing this, Bian Lang and Chen Shuting frowned at the same time.
It was not until they saw clearly that the logo on the microphone was not that of Shandong Provincial TV that they felt a little relieved.
After all, the conference was held in Qindao, and the satellite TV station in our own province should not exaggerate such things.
At this time, the staff member of the preparatory group who was in charge of contacting the Rolling Stones saw the two of them and came over to greet them, "Teacher Bian, Mr. Chen, why are you here? The CCTV interview team is looking for you!"
After exchanging pleasantries with the other party, Chen Shuting said, "The two people being interviewed are the family members of our Rolling Stone employees. There are some bad comments against them on the Internet. We at Rolling Stone don't care, but we are afraid that this matter will affect their normal lives!"
The group that the staff member belongs to is specifically responsible for communication, so when Chen Shuting mentioned this matter, he could probably imagine the public opinion that would arise if it was not handled properly.
He immediately took out his work ID from his jacket pocket and held it against his chest, then walked towards the staff from Shandong Provincial TV who were filming.
But after listening to a few sentences, he took out his cell phone, looked at it, and then walked back.
"Mr. Chen, don't worry, this situation has been reversed."
After hearing the word "reversal", the two felt relieved!
It turns out that Mu Man's parents were not ordinary workers. Although the staff's description was very abstract, Bian Lang still roughly understood that if these two were to go back a few decades, they would probably have been at the level of eighth-level workers.
Mumian's father is a fitter and her mother is a welder. Both of them are technical backbones in a state-owned factory in Qindao.
With this identity, once it is announced, the netizens who previously made the Rolling Stones comment will probably immediately turn their guns on the organizing committee and criticize them: "Why does an industrialist of this level need to pass the Rolling Stones to be eligible to go to the scene?"
But this is not something Bian Lang needs to consider!
After the interview was completed, Chen Shuting and Bian Lang walked up to greet Mu Mian's parents.
Chen Shuting was just about to lay the groundwork and tell the two elders about this matter when she heard Mumian's mother ask, "Mr. Chen, I just want to ask, is my daughter's boyfriend..."
After giving an awkward smile, Mumian's father walked away and chatted with Bian Lang.
Less than two minutes into the conversation, someone else came over! This time, it was not the media, nor the staff of the preparatory team, but the leader of Mumian's parents' factory.
"Lao Lin, why didn't I hear you say that your daughter went to the Rolling Stone Music Hall?"
"Oh, Secretary, I won't bother you with my family affairs. Let me introduce you to our daughter's leader, Bian Lang..."
It was the first time that Bian Lang was addressed as a leader. He was a little uncomfortable at first and didn’t know how to greet the person.
But the guy on the other side immediately reached out his hand and shook Bian Lang's. He was a little excited and praised him first: "Well done, Rolling Stones. All the words we couldn't think of were made clear in your song. We just want to tell those foreigners that China is very strong now!"
"Thank you, you're praising me too much. I just sang a song, I didn't think too much about it!" Bian Lang's words were exactly the same as a statement Lao Cui made back then.
The secretary was also an old hand, and he laughed even more happily when he heard this: "Right, right, right! Just focus on your creations, and there will naturally be someone else to take care of the other things!"
After he finished speaking, he turned to Mumian's father and said, "Old Lin, that... But now the conference preparation team is already investigating who did this. I'm just giving you a heads up, so you don't get angry when you see this. I tell you, no matter who you tell about this, you two have the right to sit here with dignity."
After hearing this, Mumian's father felt a little guilty. After all, the purpose of the couple's visit to the site had nothing to do with industrial development. But who knew that it would turn out like this.
Although he already knew who did it, he would not tell the secretary. Anyway, as the secretary said, no matter how they got in, they have a clear conscience!
However, this matter has already had a result. Lunzi found Li Zheng when he was about to skip work.
As for the subsequent handling, the venue naturally gave Li Zheng a temporary worker package...
Since the Rolling Stones had already created some heat, appearing on CCTV was not as complicated as Mr. Yin had initially considered.
As for the Rolling Stones, they received an exceptional reception from the organizing committee that night.
It is said that Qindao Beer sent out two level 3 bartenders from within the factory, but they still failed to outlast the 10 members of the Rolling Stones, let alone get them to sing a line or two of their new song!
As soon as the Stones returned to Spring City, Olaf came over with questions from DGM: "Wave, are those interpretations like this?"
“Is this matter important to us?”
"It's very important. It determines who DGM invites to the Blueberry Music Festival."
From Olaf's tone, Bian Lang probably knew what DGM was worried about. If DGM wanted to have long-term cooperation with the Rolling Stones and could open up a new situation in China, it must be given the greatest respect in this kind of personnel selection issue!
"Wait a minute, I'll give you a sample..."
The demo song given to Olaf was naturally "I Walk This Road Alone". Olaf, who was very familiar with the accompaniment, knew as soon as he heard it that Bian Lang was going to do something.
But after listening to it, he understood what Bian Lang meant: "Wave, I want to know how to choose the band that comes to China this time. I will let Walker choose carefully!"
……
Hatter has absolute priority in performing in China, but Feimos has received a message from Bian Lang earlier: "The Rolling Stone Music Festival is more suitable for you. I will compose an encore song for you when the time comes!"
Naturally, Feimos followed Bian Lang's arrangements, but he never expected that Bian Lang would send them the encore song before the time of the Rolling Stone Music Festival was finalized.
For more than half of the artists under DGM, their understanding of China only comes from those not very intuitive reports on the Internet.
So when we were communicating about the schedule before, most people didn’t seem very enthusiastic. It was only after the agents strongly pushed for a few bands that they agreed to consider it.
Now I have seen the videos on YouTube, and more than half of them have directly and clearly refused.
Among the bands and artists who stayed, there was a band called Coldplay, which had opened for them on the Hatter tour and had communicated with the guest band that day, the Rolling Stones, and was extremely impressed by their live performance. So they didn't bother to care about those boring stance issues, and just wanted to have a chance to perform in the hometown of the Rolling Stones and have another close communication with them.
However, there are only three places for China this time, and it would be difficult for them to get a spot given their qualifications and fame. But this just gives them an opportunity!
After finding Phimos, lead singer Chris got straight to the point: "Phimos, we want to go to China to participate in the music festival. I hope you can give us some advice..."
Being able to open for Hatter proved that the two bands had a good relationship, so right after Chris finished speaking, Phimos replied directly: "I'll give you a demo. If you can quickly arrange a version and send it to Wave, you should understand... As long as Wave asks, even Adams can't refuse!"
Chris didn't even ask what it was, and agreed directly: "Thank you, Femos, I will do my best!"
"But I want to warn you! You'd better not think of using this song..."
"Then it depends on who is more suitable for this song!"
Although Chris was joking with Phimos, he had actually decided that he would not have any other thoughts about this song no matter what.
But he never imagined that this demo was actually the English version of the song that caused quite a bit of controversy in Europe.
The key point is that this is the English version revised by Bian Lang himself!
After listening to the whole song, Chris was confused: "'I Walk This Road Alone'? Wave's ideas are always hard to figure out, and this time is no exception. But I really like this line: Will I find another home..."
Chris didn't hesitate at all. The next night after receiving the demo, he sent the demo that his band had recorded to Olaf.
Olaf passed it to Bian Lang without even listening to it, and also expressed his thoughts to Walker: "I think this band can be given priority."
After hearing this, Bian Lang didn't say much, he just smiled and shook his head.
When in Europe, Bian Lang didn't have time to listen carefully to the opening song sung by the band for Hatter, nor did he pay much attention to what the band was called.
Now, after listening carefully to the lead singer's voice and repeatedly confirming it, Bian Lang has come to the conclusion that Hatter is more suitable for interpreting Lao Cui's works.
As for Coldplay, the lyrics of "Yellow" immediately popped up in Bian Lang's mind: "Look at the stars, Look how they shine for you, And everything you do, Yeah, they were all Yellow..."
Three hours later, along with the festival confirmation letter, Chris was handed a band score of the new song.
"Chris, if you mess up this song, I believe you will probably be the laughing stock of the entire company when you come back." Although Walker said this in a joking tone, this was what he meant.
Although Chris was very excited, he did not completely lose his mind. He immediately asked Walker, "Mr. Walker, where do you think we should produce this song?"
"Go to China. Olaf is there. I believe that besides Wave himself, he is the most suitable producer for this song! I just hope you can earn back the money you spent on this song in a year!"
After hearing this, there was a world of difference between Chris's understanding and what Walker wanted to express!
Neither of them had seen the song, and based on pure blind guessing, Walker thought it should be a work of the level of "The Angel", so he gave an expectation of a payback period of one year.
Of course, the reason why he is a little conservative is not because of the song, but because of Coldplay. This also indirectly shows how high the price of a song by Bian Lang is now!
The key point is that this is also the first time that Bian Lang has shared his creations with a foreign band. If this cooperation goes smoothly, DGM will be able to cooperate more easily with the Rolling Stones on other things in the future.
What they want is to enter the Chinese market through the Rolling Stones and to comprehensively enhance the Rolling Stones' influence in the European market.
But Chris didn't think so. Since it was a brand new English song given by Bian Lang, as long as the company's later resources were in place, a one-year payback would be a joke in his opinion: "Does Mr. Walker look down on us, or does he look down on Bian Lang?"
But no matter what, both of them still underestimated this song. This song can bring them more than just sales!
You know, when this song was released on the original Earth in 01 and 02, it was nominated for awards ranging from Europe to the Grammy Awards!
