Perfect Superstar

Chapter 321 Challengers

Shi Gang was in his thirties, but he looked older, like a forty-year-old uncle with vicissitudes.

However, compared with many of the same unshaven and decadent colleagues on the scene, he looked quite different. His clothes and trousers were all starched and washed, there were absolutely no thick stains on the clothes, and his strong joints and nails were neatly trimmed. Qi, a pair of bright eyes, will definitely not be misunderstood as a homeless person on the street.

In response to the coaxing and instigation of his companions, Shi Gang first frowned slightly, and then smiled: Don't say that, Lu Chen is a very powerful singer, and he is much better than me in terms of talent.

No one would have imagined that Gang Zi, who has always been quite arrogant in the circle, would have such a high regard for Lu Chen, those who mocked Lu Chen just now couldn't help but shut their mouths, showing an embarrassed look.

Shi Gang didn't seem to see it, and continued: Yesterday, I had a long chat with Da Qin from the Wandering Band. Brother Da Qin told me a lot about Lu Chen. It is lucky to have a character like him in the pop music scene.

It has been more than ten years since Shi Gang debuted, and he has experienced both prosperity and neglect. He has been in the mainstream and non-mainstream, and he has been in the circles at the bottom and high levels. Naturally, he has his own views on life.

He is very clear that in the domestic pop music circle, the non-mainstream circle is as complicated as the mainstream circle, and it is full of various characters. Those depressed singers are often prejudiced or even jealous of famous people in the mainstream circle. .

It is often these people who are actually very envious of the scenery and honor of the mainstream circle.

Conversely, the mainstream circle's rejection and contempt for non-mainstream circles have always existed.

The original intention of the 72h Grassland Music Festival is to break the gap between the two circles, so that more talents at the bottom can stand out, and let the mainstream circle face up to their existence.

But how easy it is!

Although many singers and bands have emerged through 72h, and have been chosen by entertainment brokers to sign and release records, the situation in the non-mainstream circle has not changed, and the estrangement and discrimination between them have never really been eliminated.

To be honest, Shi Gang, who is now wandering between the mainstream and non-mainstream circles, also looks down on those so-called idols in the mainstream circle who are mediocre in singing skills and rely entirely on their faces to sell handsome and mess around.

But Lu Chen is definitely not this type.

When it comes to Da Qin of the Wandering Band, everyone is silent.

Whether they admit it or not,

The current band Wandering is one of the most popular bands in the music world. Da Qin's background makes him also have a high reputation in non-mainstream circles. The song In the Spring has touched many low-level singers and regards Qin Hanyang as a Big brother character.

Lu Chen is precisely the songwriter of In the Spring. His works also include such excellent light rock songs as Chasing the Dream, Once You, and Flying Higher.

It's nothing more than his youth and handsomeness, the TV series he's filmed and his relationship with Chen Fei'er, which makes people ignore his talent and strength in original music, intentionally or unintentionally.

Wouldn't it seem ignorant and ridiculous to despise and ridicule such a character?

Many people's faces showed a bit of shame.

Shi Gang clapped his hands and said, Actually, on the other hand, it is also our luck to be able to perform on the same stage as a singer like Lu Chen. I suggest that we all bring out our best strengths, so that others can't look down on them!

This time, everyone's response was enthusiastic, and morale rose again: Yes, Gangzi is right!

We can't make people look down on us!

Shi Gang smiled without saying a word, thinking about the performance at night.

He has never been a singer who is willing to be lonely. The ups and downs of life have made him more aware of cherishing opportunities. Although Lu Chen is strong, it is not enough to make him lose the courage and confidence to sing.

Like Shi Gang, those powerful singers are also gearing up for a try, ready to compete.

Although their fame and popularity are not comparable to those of popular fried chickens like Lu Chen, the 72h Grassland Music Festival is different from ordinary performances. The audience who come here has a high degree of identification with non-mainstream circles, and they know how to appreciate rock and roll. And so on the more niche type of music.

In the history of 72h, there have been many cases of famous singers being humiliated by others. The live band accompaniment, unplugged features, and the authentic singing of the original taste test the strength of the individual.

So here, anyone can sing more popular than Lu Chen or other big-name singers!

At this moment, Lu Chen didn't know that there were so many singers waiting to compete with him. It took him more than half an hour to deal with the reporters and came to the backstage.

It is said that it is the backstage, but it is actually a simple tent that is temporarily set up, and it is long like a vegetable greenhouse.

There were already many singers and bands in the tent, and Lu Chen saw several familiar faces.

Brother Liao Jia!

Among the singers invited by the 20th 72h Grassland Music Festival, Lu Chen is definitely not the one with the highest rank.

It's Liao Jia!

The lead singer of the Black Crows and the disciple of Gao Yi, the soul of the band, was once regarded as the last hope of Guoyao. Although he was not able to save Guoyao, he still has a high influence in the music circle.

For the 72h Grassland Music Festival, Liao Jia also has a very special identity. He is one of the founders!

Of course, now Liao Jia is only a special guest of the music festival, not a member of the organizing committee.

Lu Chen knew Liao Jia because of Chen Feier. The latter had pursued Chen Feier, but Chen Feier had no feelings for him, and was finally taken away by Lu Chen, a hairy boy.

For this reason, Liao Jia also specially asked Lu Chen to have a drink, but the two cherished each other and became friends.

Liao Jia's temper is a bit impatient, his character is good, and his popularity and prestige in the circle are better.

So no matter how popular Lu Chen is now, he still has to greet him politely when he sees him.

You kid is here too!

Seeing Lu Chen, a smile appeared on Liao Jia's black and thin face.

He stood up from his seat, reached out and patted Lu Chen's shoulder hard, and asked indifferently, What time does your singing start?

Lu Chen replied, Around half past eight.

Liao Jia said with a smile: It's half past seven, I've wanted to compete with you for a long time, but this is not the chance!

Lu Chen was ashamed: Brother Liao Jia, can we not joke?

Who is joking with you!

Liao Jia stared and said, If you lose to me, I will despise you!
