Sound of Rebirth

The first job Zhang Dingbang arranged for An Zhixiao was as a street performer.

Los Angeles is a city full of artistic atmosphere and full of star dreams.Here, countless people from all over the world flock here every day, hoping to get a chance to succeed.However, it is only a small number of people who can be considered by big companies to sign contracts, so some of them have to stay here, working to support themselves, while looking for opportunities.

For actresses, it is easier to get opportunities as a restaurant waiter or other jobs near Hollywood.For singers, in order to fully show their singing voice, most people will choose to perform on the street, or sing in places such as bars.thereby gathering popularity.

Music itself is the best language.

If you want people to know yourself, know yourself, and pay attention to yourself, it is naturally a good way to greet them with your own language.

It stands to reason that with the identity and resources that An knows, there is no need to do this kind of thing, but with the advent of the Internet age and the opening of the era of national entertainment, this method has begun to be liked by more ordinary people. Starting from here, both the media and the industry have paid attention to this.Zhang Dingbang believes that An Zhizhi's first step from here may have a miraculous effect.

And it is.

An Zhizhi's first concert was at a relatively open place next to the subway station.They didn't bring audio equipment or even an accompaniment. They only asked her to bring a guitar to play and sing, just to highlight An Zhizhi's unique timbre.

An Zhixiao sang a song she wrote herself.After arriving in the United States, she finally became a bit of a "singer-songwriter", mainly because the mainstream here is like this, and she has to do as the Romans do.Shen Yanru regrets this very much. Although it is no longer necessary to use this method to show her "ownership" of An, but she is used to the two being bound together, and the sudden change makes her feel uncomfortable.

So although Zhang Dingbang asked An Zhixiao to come alone, Shen Yanru finally followed.After Zhang Dingbang knew about it, he had no choice but to follow him, making Shen Yanru squat with him not far away to watch, so as not to be discovered by people nearby.

"Shouldn't it be so exaggerated?" Seeing that Shen Yanru's gaze had hardly left An Zhizhi, he couldn't help but tease.

Shen Yanru ignored him.

Zhang Dingbang and Zhang Chongyuan are both children of Shen Yanru's group, called cousins, but in fact they grew up under the shadow of Shen Yanru's genius.Probably because the awe of the top students still existed in his heart when he was a child, so Zhang Dingbang didn't dare to tease her too much.After thinking about it, he said, "Actually, if you want to follow her all the time, I have a good idea."

Shen Yanru finally turned her head and looked at him with silly eyes.

"What kind of eyes are you looking at?" Zhang Dingbang felt uncomfortable when she looked at her, "I promise it's a wonderful idea!"

"Didn't you just want me to debut with Zhixiao?" Shen Yanru turned her gaze back to An Zhixiao, "Do you dare to go back and tell grandpa about this?"

It’s not that she hasn’t thought about it, it’s just that she is already old, it’s a bit funny to switch from a producer to a singer, and secondly, her family may not allow it, after all, when she insisted on becoming a singer, the elders already had a headache up.The most important thing is that if both of them stand in front of the public, then any contact between her and An Zhi must be carefully considered to avoid being discovered by the media.

Shen Yanru didn't want this.

Hearing her question, Zhang Dingbang immediately made a zipper movement around his mouth, indicating that he should shut up.

The "business" that Ann knew was pretty good. A dozen people stopped by to listen to her sing a song, and a few of them even pulled out their money before realizing that she hadn't put out the piano case like everyone else. , had to take back the money, and then gave her a round of applause.

There are people passing by all around, some of them will stop, listen to a song or two, and then leave.Although they didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, they had a short but pleasant exchange in the language of music.An Zhizhi liked this feeling very much.

She has always liked the way of performing that can directly interact with the audience.For her, being able to get reactions and feedback directly from them is already the best thing.It's a pity that she had many opportunities like this in her previous life, but in this life, she only had one fan meeting and three concerts in her debut years.So now such a street performance makes her feel very enjoyable and enjoys it.

In fact, singing like this for an afternoon is much more tiring than holding a concert.When she returned to her residence at night, An knew that her voice was hoarse. After eating and drinking Chinese medicine to moisten her throat, she was so tired that she fell asleep.

Speaking of which, Xiang Yujie specially sent them here after hearing that she was going to "sing" on the street.

The cousin did her best to know what Ann knew, and even planned to come to Los Angeles to take care of her herself.It's just that there are still things that need her to deal with in San Francisco, and because Shen Yanru is here, she is an elder, and she is afraid that the young people will feel uncomfortable, so she hasn't made any moves yet.

An Zhixiao sang in the same place for three days in a row, and there was also a group of regular audiences.After they knew An Zhizhi's performance time, they would even make a detour to listen to a song or two before going home.And on this day, after Shen Yanru and Zhang Dingbang settled down at the place where they were staying, they immediately noticed that some people in the crowd were holding mobile phones and some were holding cameras, and they were taking pictures of An Zhixiao.

Sure enough, after returning home, Zhang Dingbang searched the Internet, and immediately grabbed his phone and shouted excitedly, "Successful!"

He sang the video on his phone to Shen Yanru and An Zhixiao.It was a video uploaded by passers-by. The resolution was not very high, and the sound was somewhat impurity, but the response among netizens was very good, and the number of views was quite large.Many netizens even left messages asking where this is, planning to go and listen to the scene.

"Our PR team hasn't made a move yet." Zhang Dingbang looked very excited, "I know, you are going to be popular!"

Shen Yanru said indifferently, "She has been popular for a long time."

"That's different!" Zhang Dingbang said, "That was only in China, now, she will soon become an international superstar!"

This is not an exaggeration.An Zhizhi's videos and photos were posted on social networks by many people, and he has become an Internet celebrity now.If coupled with FMC's promotional packaging, the popularity can be expanded immediately.An album will be released next, and if the response is good, she will soon be able to gain a firm foothold in this circle.

Zhang Dingbang, who has been disliked by Shen Yanru every day for the past few days, finally has a place to use his skills, and he puts all his energy into creating momentum for An Zhixiao.

He first guided the comments of netizens on the Internet - but to be honest, it didn't take much effort at all, because netizens hardly needed his guidance, and they started to discuss a topic by themselves: the oriental beauty in the video Who exactly?

She is well-dressed and well-dressed, and she doesn't look downcast, and although she sings in the subway station, she doesn't charge money. With all the conditions combined, many people already regard her as a rich person who came out to experience life.

The digging ability of netizens is very powerful, not to mention that there are not a lot of Chinese in the United States, so Zhang Dingbang quickly discovered that An's true identity was picked up without even needing to guide him.Everyone knows that she is a singer from China. It seems that she came to the United States to visit relatives or travel, and then experience life in the subway station.

It is worth mentioning that this video was moved back to China by netizens who overcame the wall, and then An Zhixiao was unanimously ridiculed, and some media even put the title: "Glory or shame in the language music world?!"

For them, domestic first-line singers go abroad, claiming to hit the international market, but go to the streets to sing and sing, which is too shameful. ——They don't care about the specific situation, as long as the news is hot enough.Under the guidance of the media, there was a lot of scolding in the country, and An Zhizhi's fans also fell silent.

Puzzled, questioned, ridiculed, ridiculed... Fortunately, An Zhixiao didn't know about these things for the time being. She just went to sing every day according to the established plan.And her reputation on the Internet is getting louder and louder. After all, she is a singer in the first place, and she is much stronger than other street singers at the beginning. It is almost certain that she will get the attention of the media and the public.

And at this time, something happened that no one thought of before, but the effect was very good.

That is, Biao Aunt Xiang Yujie finally came to Los Angeles to visit An Zhixiao—in fact, she was not at ease after seeing the situation in China from the Internet, so she came here specially.She herself is a well-known pianist and played first in Vienna.But it wasn't all smooth sailing for her to get to where she is today, and she had a lot of training when she was young.At this time, I was afraid that An would not be able to bear the blow and slander because of his youthful vigor, so he rushed here in a hurry.

In the end, An Zhixiao didn't even know about it.Now she wakes up every morning and thinks about what song to sing today. After returning home at night, she eats something and falls asleep. Naturally, she doesn't have the heart to pay attention to what people in the country are talking about.

On the contrary, when Xiang Yujie came to look for someone, a passerby took a photo of her and An Zhixiao together and posted it on the Internet together.

In fact, this person's original intention was to prove to other netizens that An Zhixiao was indeed from a good background, and that the elders in the family were also such temperamental and graceful people.However, as a Chinese-American pianist, Xiang Yujie is well-known in the United States, and he was recognized quickly.

Not only did he recognize it, but also the two faces in the photo are placed together, anyone who is not blind can tell that these two people look so similar, they must be related!
