Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

But just like Tian Xiao, the issue of how to ask for leave is bothering many music fans who have obtained admission qualifications.

The admission that the Rolling Stones are issuing through Absolute Live is based on real-name registration. If you cannot attend, you must give up in advance, otherwise Absolute Live will directly blacklist your ID.

Those scalpers who thought they could make a fortune could only watch and watch. They also threatened the Rolling Stones, using the seafood market account to make a lot of nonsense: "This is a crappy show. You have to use your real name to enter. I won't go even if you invite me. Don't hire college students for 30 yuan a day!"

There is nothing wrong with what Rolling Stone said, but it has completely offended the college student group. The proportion of students as users in the seafood market is not small. Scalping is originally a gray industry. With hundreds and thousands of reports, this guy almost wiped out all the scalpers in the seafood market by himself.

It’s not that bad for music fans in Spring City or Yunnan Province, as the round trip only takes a few hours. But for those outside the province, it’s more troublesome as they need to take a plane and a high-speed train.

But 99% of those who got admission had no intention of giving up.

Since the screening is done among those who have registered, the Rolling Stones must have done some biased screening.

According to the survey form filled out when registering, it is obvious that fans of the Rolling Stones and Bian Lang accounted for more than half of the total number of votes, but when the program team was screening, they only gave one percent of the total votes to this group of fans.

As for the region, it is definitely biased towards Yunnan Province.

Among these, gold accounts for a large proportion, and they are now organized, so they have formed a small group separately for those who have obtained the admission qualifications.

There weren't many people, less than a hundred, but none of them couldn't come.

Xiaohan was one of them. On the day she was selected, she took her boyfriend out for a good meal to celebrate this opportunity.

When Xiaohan asked for leave later, her boss, who was very kind to her, asked her one more question out of concern: "Xiaohan, did something happen at home? I don't remember you taking a three-day personal leave in the past few years, right?"

Xiao Han did not hide it and told her boss about it immediately.

The boss didn't say anything, but he was thinking in his heart: "These young people are really something. They are so serious about chasing a star."

Taking a leave is not a big deal, but the round-trip food, accommodation and transportation to Yunnan Province cost a lot of money, at least half a month's salary is gone.

But after Summer of the Band became a huge hit, he became extremely envious.

As for the admission qualification for those with connections, although it is not that popular, the fact that someone in the circle found Huang Wei is a testament to this.

This person was none other than the quasi-frontline who had previously told Huang Wei about her daughter's schooling. She had already made an appointment with the Rolling Stones to go to the recording studio, and the producer was Liu Ziyang. The time was just after the first phase of "Summer of the Band" was recorded, so she wanted to go there to experience it.

But who would have thought that her face was not enough. Liu Ziyang, who originally had only a few vacancies, did not agree, so she had no choice but to come to Huang Wei.

Huang Wei did have the qualifications to enter, but she was a professional music fan, which was agreed upon early on. But she couldn't bring anyone with her, so she could only agree to ask for her.

This time she didn't beat around the bush and went straight to Bian Lang.

Bian Lang didn't think much of the favor from a quasi-first-tier star, but after hearing that the man planned to send his daughter here to learn guitar, Bian Lang nodded and agreed.

When Zhun Yixian learned the whole story, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Well, it seems that my efforts in the music industry for more than ten years have been in vain. My daughter's reputation is not as good as mine."

Bian Lang still cares about the school's enrollment. He thinks that once it opens, there will be no shortage of students coming for the Rolling Stones' fame, but the more students the better for the first enrollment. And if those who originally planned to go abroad stay, it's worth it for him to give them an admission qualification.

As for those who approached Liu Yao, she rejected them all with a smile and a scolding: "I still want to go, but I'm recording "The Music Man" here and can't leave."

……

After several rounds of competition, Zheng Zeting successfully helped Baigou win the exclusive naming rights, and Xiaopo Station also won the program anchor rights. Therefore, the two companies obtained some admission qualifications for general music fans. Needless to say, Xiaopo Station is absolutely the best bun, but because it is afraid that the employees will have any trouble, except for the people who were sent to hold the logo, the other admission qualifications were directly given to the best music up masters last year.

This is equivalent to attracting a wave of loyal fans for subsequent promotion of the program.

Zheng Zeting originally thought that not many people in the company would be interested in this thing, so she thought of giving it to Baigou users as a promotional item. Not long after the news was announced, Dongzi called her and said, "Zeting, get more tickets. We can pay for them. I just heard from the event team that the number of people who signed up to participate in the event has exceeded 5 in just 20 minutes after it went online. In addition, several shareholders also called to ask."

Zheng Zeting knew that admission was in short supply, but she didn't expect that there would be so many people who shared the same niche hobby as her.

"That's it for this episode. If there are too many things, they won't be valuable anymore. I'll ask for more admissions for the next recordings. We can continue this activity until the end of the recording..."

As for her, after reading the recording plan given by the program team, she weighed the pros and cons and decided to adjust her schedule to participate in the first recording of the program.

She also wanted to be a super fan in the finals, but after looking at the voting composition, she was worried that her qualifications would be questioned by netizens.

As time goes by, the difference in the quality of the bands that remain will become smaller, and you may not be sure that your five votes can really decide whether a band stays or goes.

She herself doesn't care what netizens say, but she represents White Dog and she doesn't want to bring bad reputation to the company.

Since she was added as a temporary super fan at the beginning, the program team discussed adding one more later, adding one for each recording.

As soon as the news spread, Lin Yaorong was the first to call Bian Lang: "Bian Lang, can you arrange an episode for me?"

Bian Lang had considered Lin Yaorong before, but due to schedule issues, he declined. If he was just coming to participate in a recording session, he would be able to make time for it.

As for Xie Xinyan, when he got the news and went to find Bian Lang, all the places had been taken, so he could only accept the invitation from the last professional music fan with anger.

But he still asked: "Bian Lang, who is the super fan in the finals? How about I discuss it with him myself? I believe no netizens will question my identity, right?"

Bian Lang didn't expect that this person was so concerned about gain and loss, but he didn't need to hide anything: "An Feng!"

Hearing this name, Xie Xinyan gave up: "As for this one, then let's do it."

If it were someone else, he would still want to use his status as a superstar to negotiate, but it is hard to say whether it would succeed. However, if this national goddess goes, even if her status has nothing to do with the music industry, no one on the Internet would say anything inappropriate.

……

The night before the recording session, Mid-Levels, which had been acquired by the Rolling Stones, announced that it would be closed to the public and that all the money would be used to entertain the bands and rights holders that came to participate in the competition.

Old Tan looked at the hundreds of nearly two hundred new and old faces and said to Li Hao, "Haozi, when was the last time there was such a big scene? It should be at your place, right?"

Li Hao was also a little dazed. After thinking for a while, he sighed and said, "It's been about 10 years. When I performed "The Gift" in Jingwei before, I didn't see such a neat group. The old ones are almost the same, but the new ones are much less. Don't mention it. I admire Bian Lang the most for this. If I were him, why would I suppress Ershoumeigui and Mayuan Poets from participating?"

Hu Chen, who was chatting at the bar, couldn't bear to hear what Li Hao said, and laughed and said, "So you can only be a bar owner who doesn't even know how to play the bass, while Bian Lang can be the leader in the circle. Think about how many years you have been underground. What if someone said that you can participate in this kind of variety show?"

Li Hao was speechless because he really couldn't find any fault with Hu Chen's words.

If it were someone else, they wouldn't be able to organize the event, let alone participate.

In his opinion, whether it is underground or above ground, the flower of freedom of rock and roll should not be influenced by the outside world. Commercialization is not a bad thing, but once a band becomes commercialized, there will be more corresponding constraints.

But Bian Lang’s "Summer of the Band" is different. First of all, it has a bunch of equipment and professional teams that most bands don’t have access to, which greatly satisfies the self-esteem of all musicians.

Secondly, the performance fees given by the program group were all equal, not based on the star status. The first fee for each band to participate was 6 yuan, and accommodation and transportation were all included. He also knew that the meal allowance for each musician was 500 yuan per day, and it was calculated from the day they landed in Spring City.

The key is that this is the next job of Nan Feiyan of Bian Lang's family. Li Hao, who has been eating for two days, admires Bian Lang's clever trick in his heart: "This method of winning people's hearts is really unmatched!"

Speaking of this, Hu Chen asked curiously: "Li Hao, how are the other programs arranged?"

How could Li Hao know this? He pulled Lao Zhao who was passing by and asked, "Lao Zhao, what was the level of the reception when you went to Lucheng to record the show last time?"

When Lao Zhao mentioned this, he thought about it and got a little angry: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten it. I'll have to scold Director Qin when I see him later. At that time, we all had buffets or boxed lunches, but Xia Yuxi and his group didn't eat with us. Also, we all stayed in single rooms or standard rooms, and they all stayed in suites."

When it comes to living, people don’t really care, they just don’t like being treated differently.

This time, the Rolling Stones treated everyone equally, and found a five-star hotel near the exhibition center not far from the Music and Creative Park. All musicians were treated as single rooms, so even if they moved with their families, there was no inconvenience.

Especially for those unknown small bands that came this time, I really don’t know how to express my gratitude.

One of them is a five-member band called Washe from Guangxi Province.

In the two years since they formed the band, the cost of the tour has been enough to cover food, accommodation and transportation. And the cost of food, accommodation and transportation is saved wherever possible, and the standard room of the Express Hotel and Shaxian Hotel is the standard.

The program crew booked first-class seats for them on the high-speed train. After checking in at the hotel, the five people still felt a little uncomfortable.

"It's my first time sleeping in such a big bed by myself, and I feel a little uncomfortable!"

After the lead singer said that, the drummer followed up: "Yeah, if it weren't for your snoring, I couldn't sleep last night!"

Hearing what the two said, Xi Que, who had already become friends with them, laughed and said, "It was only after following Brother Lang that we were able to truly support ourselves with music."

"Xi Que, your girlfriend wants two bands to perform together this time. What if they encounter a PK or other competition system?" The production team has not announced the subsequent competition system yet, so no one knows yet.

"You are so bold. If we ordinary diners could encounter a hedgehog, I would laugh so hard that I would wake up..."

Although he thought it was impossible, after being reminded of this, Magpie still thought about finding a backup.

When this large group of rock musicians get together, improvisation is inevitable.

Under the influence of alcohol, everyone had already dispersed, and no one went up as a band. Whoever was willing could go up, and when they were tired, there would naturally be someone to take over.

Tu Ling had just finished a segment with a few reggae players when Pan Jianhu rushed up to grab the microphone and said, "Brothers, I have to say one more thing here. Although there is no alcohol restriction this time, the recording will start early tomorrow morning. If anyone is delayed because of drinking, I, Old Pan, will not tolerate it."

While speaking, Pan Jianhu looked towards Old Tan. Needless to say, he was looking at Li Hao and Tian Yuan.

Tian Yuan knew that he couldn't control his mouth once he started drinking, so he didn't drink a single sip of alcohol tonight. So facing Lao Pan's death stare, Tian Yuan calmly raised the sparkling water in his hand and shouted, "I'm drinking water..."

Li Hao was stunned at this. He was a well-known drunkard in the circle. If anyone was to catch an example, he would definitely be the first one to be caught.

So he could only push the Xibiqi in his hand into the bar, and then said to Lao Tan very reluctantly: "Give me a glass of milk!"

Bian Lang, who was sitting right in front of the stage, saw this scene and thought that when he had a chance to remember all the lyrics, he would definitely send a line to Li Hao, who was wearing a cowboy outfit: "Although I am a cowboy, I only order milk in the bar..."

Seeing that Li Hao, the drunkard, had given in, everyone who knew the situation lowered the frequency of toasting.

But the improvisation became more and more lively, and when it was almost 12 o'clock, someone called out to Bian Lang to finish the game, and we all went back to the hotel to rest.

This caused a huge uproar, and all the rockers in the bar started to cheer:

"Here comes a new song, it's awesome!"

"Don't try to fool people by singing folk songs! You have to be really wild!"

Bian Lang didn't refuse. When he stood up and walked towards the stage, he had already thought about what he wanted to sing.

He has already come up with the theme song for this year's Summer of Band, but it has not yet been announced to the public. This is a good opportunity for him to sing it for everyone first.

Bian Lang walked onto the stage, went directly behind the keyboard, and said into the microphone: "I wrote a song for this show. I was going to give you the score after the previous recording, but I think I'd better sing it for everyone first."

Although this was expected, everyone was also very curious about what Bian Lang would sing.

Bian Lang played a prelude on the keyboard to simulate the sound of the piano, and then, with a stubborn and resolute look in his eyes, he began to sing: "Our blood is mixed with sweat, and we are not born to be noble..."
