When Lance proposed to 'help the election'...

James was silent.

But things didn't stop there.

Lance wrote 'Music Market' and 'Native Culture' again in the palm of his hand.

James was at a loss for words.

Although he guessed that there were countless people fanning the flames behind this meaningless fight, he really didn't think it was so complicated before Lance pointed it out.

This is not just a political issue. In addition to politicians who want to use this to promote their political ideas, there are countless behind-the-scenes people who are also promoting this battle.The two most popular bands in the UK are so popular that they have long been the focus of competition among various forces.

In terms of the music market, after the wave of grunge officially receded, there was a brief blank in the music market around the world. Although the rising British rock has gradually risen with the efforts of British musicians, it is limited by the unique British music. Although culture and style are very popular in the UK, the speed of development in the world is far less than that of grunge.

Therefore, the entire music industry fell into a short trough.

This is something most capital holders trying to make money from the music business don't want to see.

Therefore, they have been planning secretly for a long time, wanting to give a push and make Britpop officially dominate the pop music scene.

Only in this way can they sell more music records, more music magazines, music peripherals, music performance tickets... and make the whole music circle active again.

Can you imagine?

When two popular bands with such huge fan bases fight, countless people will be involved.

They cheer for the band, donate money for the band's sales, help the band hit the charts and promote spontaneously, and the entire market will become active.And in this, the biggest gainer will never be the band, but the capital holders who take this opportunity to sell most of the goods.

In addition, in terms of local culture, the two bands can also take advantage of the opportunity of the two bands competing for the leadership of British rock, vigorously promote the British concept, and arouse the love of the Chinese people for the music culture of the motherland.

This will be a national carnival.

Politicians can use the battle between the two bands to indirectly express their political ideas and attract more voters; capital holders in the music industry can hype the battle between the two bands, let them start a sales war, and sell more things from it , revitalize the entire music market, and seek huge financial benefits; local British culture can also use this to promote a focus on and focus on England.

Political, economic and cultural……

This is a huge net covering the hood, there is nowhere to escape, and there is no way to retreat!

The whole world is forcing them to a duel.

A much-anticipated British duel.

"Jimmy, we can only continue." Lance said firmly.

But James asked blankly: "Oh, what do you want to do then?"

Lance was silent for a while, but surprisingly didn't say anything like 'we're going to win, we're going to win'.

Instead, he paused for a long time, but said cautiously: "Do your best."

After James glanced at him in surprise, he replied very clearly: "Okay!"

Obviously, even Lance, who has always been very self-motivated, can't hold too much favor for this battle that has too many extra-musical elements.

But if you choose to quit willfully, the consequences of the band will become very bad, fleeing without fighting, becoming a loser, and being despised by people who don't know the truth...

And what's worse, it doesn't hurt those behind the scenes. The capitalists who want to make a profit only need to change the support of another band to continue to hype the battle.For example, the clown band, which is also not weak, can be on top at any time.

Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Lance can only choose this way.

The waves are choppy and the boats are more turbulent. Do your job well and make your own music well. As for the result, let it go!

James is somewhat relieved by Lance's decision.

Because he knew that even though Lance always had such ambitions and flaws, as a musician, he never lost his due bottom line.

However, he still carefully analyzed the incident in his diary:

[The whole world is really pushing us.But in fact, from another level, the door of the whole world is also opened to us. ]

[Things have two sides. No matter how those capitalists want to use us to make profits, or use us to hype, the first thing they have to do is to find a way to come up with various resources and open the door to We go all over the world.Only when we become famous and popular all over the world can their plan continue. ]

Then, after a pause, he writes:

[Lance must be very eager for this opportunity, but proudly disdain this kind of capital operation, and I... I actually didn't think too much about it, but I will accompany him to the end. ]

Who can not long for it?

Driven by countless people, it is truly the top of the world.

James wondered if Stewart had seen through the twists and turns.

But he knew that, no matter what the reason was, Stewart hadn't quit the fight either.

That being the case, the two sides can only be enemies.

So, from this day on, until the end of the Great Britain War, he and Stewart never spoke a word.

But despite thinking about things so thoroughly and clearly, even from a commercial point of view, this marketing may be called mutual benefit and win-win.

But James is still a little upset, because it means: They have compromised with the world.

In the eyes of outsiders, this may be a bit cheap and good-looking.

Because in this battle, the resources obtained by the two bands are unimaginable to other bands.Later, the fight between them even made the news at ten o'clock and became a household name throughout the country.

But at the time, James wrote in his diary:

[The road to fame is so difficult, especially when you reach the second half of the road, you will be horrified to find that there is no such thing as pure music, and the dreams and ideas you once had are all reduced to buckets of dross and scrap! ]

[But now that you've made your decision, you have to fucking keep going! ]

[So, don't fucking feel sorry for yourself, let yourself be looked down upon like a bitch! ]

[What we have to consider should only be music! ]

After figuring everything out, James and Lance threw themselves into the creation of the new single...

This is the usual habit of the two of them.

When things are messed up, put all your emotions and feelings into the creation of music, and use music to write your own voice...

However, obviously not everyone has nerves of steel like these two bastards.

The two of them belonged to a wonderful partner who quarreled ten times a day, but still managed to persist without disbanding; they belonged to a magical partner who was beaten every day, and could still sit in the recording studio and make music tacitly the next day.

So, as long as they are still stable.

Drummer Abe and bassist Sanderson in the band are also disturbed by the status quo, but they can still maintain a normal working attitude.

But on the other hand, Stuart, who naively wanted to show his friend James by hugging and kissing him, couldn't hold it anymore.

He was also not stupid, and quickly understood part of the situation keenly.

When he finally realized that the battle between the two bands was multi-push and inevitable, and there must be a battle, he fell into extreme pain, and said deeply to guitarist Oakland: "I feel all of this. nausea!"

Guitarist Oakland still couldn't understand his pain at this time, so he tried his best to comfort him: "It's okay, Stu. Don't worry, we will win, we will definitely win, we will definitely win."

But Stewart didn't want to win at all.

He is competitive, but his competitive spirit only exists in music, not what it is now, an ordinary music exchange has become what it is today, music is no longer music, it has become a shitty north-south relationship Fighting and what the working class versus the middle class.

What the hell are these?

When music is no longer pure, is it still music?

For a moment, Stuart felt as if he was in the midst of a stormy sea. Waves of waves hit him fiercely, but he was powerless to resist.

Therefore, Oakland's words not only did not comfort him, but made him more painful.

This pain can't even be told.

There are many things that can only be understood, and it is not suitable to be explained too thoroughly, and it may not be understood by others.

At this time, Lance and James can understand each other, encourage each other, discuss each other and support each other to move forward.

But Stewart had to get by on his own.

As a rare good boy in the music world, Stewart, who has always been abstaining from smoking and drinking, has a noble character, is kind to others, and loves the country and charity, has completely out of control during this period of time.

He drank like crazy, probably worse than James when he was thrown into AA.

While his teammates tried hard to comfort him, they inevitably complained about him.

At the moment when the two bands were fighting so fiercely, the lead singer did not play any wise leading role, but instead drank crazily. Moreover, Stewart was always so naive and self-willed in the past, making the music he wanted to do on his own, indirectly It caused several crashes.

Under the accumulation of various conflicts, the dissatisfaction of the players was almost overflowing. It was only due to the timely suppression of the guitarist Oakland that the band did not fall apart.

But no matter how the members of the two bands think about it or how they feel...

This British war is like a heavy tank, rolling over unstoppably.All the musicians involved were like worthless pebbles on the ground, being ruthlessly crushed by them powerlessly.

But James and Lance of the planetary band were still unwilling to silently choose to succumb to this.

They made as little resistance as they could.

At the time, the headlines in the media about the two bands' feud were:

[Who will take the throne?Who will wear the crown and be officially crowned king? ]

So, the name of Planet's new single for this feud is: "FuckTheCrown".
