Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 662 Sincerity
Cui Jian took Duan Yun with him on a bicycle, and left the Moscow restaurant with other band members.

The night was a bit cold at this time, but the sky looked extraordinarily clean, and the lights on both sides of the road were just beginning to shine, everything was so peaceful and beautiful.

It only took 20 minutes for Duan Yun to arrive at the dormitory building of the BJ Art Troupe where Cui Jian and the others were located.

Duan Yun and their band members lived in the two dormitories on the second floor. At this time, the corridor was a bit noisy, with people pouring footwash, playing poker, and playing disco with music playing, it seemed very lively.

After entering the house and putting the instrument away, Cui Jian took out 10 yuan from his pocket, which was the income of their band singing tonight, 5 yuan was given by the restaurant, and the rest were given to them by foreigners tip.

"Zhou Qiang, go to the canteen below to buy two bottles of Red Star Erguotou, and order some peanuts." Cui Jian took out a few dollars and gave it to one of the short young men, who immediately turned and left the dormitory after taking the money.

"Boss Duan, sit down!" A person next to him took out a chair and signaled Duan Yun to sit down.

"On this condition, don't be disgusted." Cui Jian said to Duan Yun with a smile.

"You guys are quite lively." Duan Yun said.

"It's all just dawdling. If you want to make more money, you have to find a job yourself." At this time, Cui Jian took out a lunch box from the bottom of the drawer, and when he opened it, a shredded roast chicken was revealed inside.

Duan Yun took out a cigarette and handed it to Cui Jian, but none of them obviously smoked, so Duan Yun withdrew his outstretched hand in desperation.

Soon the short young man returned to the dormitory with wine and a lunch box of peanuts. Several people put the window table in the middle, pulled the bunk beds on both sides forward, and then sat together.

"Everyone, welcome our new friend Duan Yun to visit our dormitory today. He is really a master at playing music. Brothers, let's go with him first." Yun also found a wine glass and filled it with wine, and said to everyone.

"The elder brother just sang really well."

"That's right, that song almost sang my soul out."

"Come on, I'll give you a toast!"

Several people around raised their glasses to Duan Yun one after another, touched them and took a sip.

"Boss Duan, you sang really well just now. I never thought that someone could sing like that before. I don't know how to describe that feeling. It's like my blood is boiling..." Cui Jian gave Duan Yun said with a sigh after holding a chicken leg.

"Actually, I am definitely far inferior to everyone in terms of music attainments, but I just want to express my feelings when I sing, and I don't want to stick to any form. To put it bluntly, it is a kind of venting. I made everyone laugh today." Duan Yun said with a smile.

"If you are not from a major, you are definitely a musical genius." Cui Jian glanced at Duan Yun with some approval, and then said: "The song you just just gave me some inspiration. I used to pay too much attention to genre when singing. On the contrary, it restricts my own creativity, so I think you are the real singer, we can only sing some songs that others have sung, this difference is too big."

"There is a process in doing anything. This thing is just like writing. First, block letters, then running script. All of these must start with imitation. When you understand calligraphy to a certain extent, you will have your own style. Writing cursive script that is different from others, I think singing is the same thing, at the beginning I just learned how to sing from others, but later I have a deeper understanding of music, and I have my own singing style." Duan Yun pursed Said after taking a sip of white wine.

Duan Yun is purely pretending at the moment. Apart from being able to play the guitar, he actually has no musical skills at all, but now that he wants to mingle with Cui Jian and his group, he has to pretend to be half a musician.

"That's true. It seems that Boss Duan is indeed a master." Several people beside him praised Duan Yun one after another.

"By the way, Boss Duan, what happened to the endorsement product you told me about in the restaurant just now?" Cui Jian asked at this time.

"It's like this. I listened to your band's performance in the restaurant today, and I feel that your music is of a high standard, so I thought about getting your band to represent our factory's products." Duan Yun paused, and then said: "I An electronics factory is now opened in Daxing, Shanxi, specializing in the production of subwoofer speakers..."

"What is a subwoofer speaker?" A person next to him asked curiously.

"Let Boss Duan finish." Cui Jian reminded.

"...The so-called subwoofer speaker is actually a new product of our factory. Compared with ordinary speakers, the sound effect is more shocking. At present, there is no similar product at home and abroad." Duan Yun glanced at Cui Jian, and then said: "Look for Your endorsement is because I want you to help me shoot TV commercials for my products, and you will also use the photos and names of your band members to promote the products..."

"But we're just a small band with little reputation." Cui Jian said with a frown.

"Not being famous now doesn't mean not being famous in the future." Duan Yun smiled slightly, and continued: "If you are willing to sign an endorsement contract with me, I will pay your band 5000 yuan as an endorsement fee every year in the future."

"5000 yuan for the endorsement fee!?" Hearing this, several people present showed expressions of disbelief.

You must know that although some popular singers and stars in China are very famous, because they are all actors in the system, their income is not high.

Even for popular singers like Li Guyi and Jiang Dawei, their monthly income will never exceed 200 yuan. As for well-known stars like Jiang Kun, a crosstalk actor, and Shan Tianfang, a storytelling actor, they can often perform privately in various parts of the country. The annual income will never be as exaggerated as 5000 yuan.

And Duan Yun opened his mouth to offer 5000 yuan a year as an endorsement fee to their little-known small band, which is unbelievably high.

"Our contract is for 3 years, and we will give you 5000 yuan every year. As for you saying that your band is not famous now, it doesn't matter. What I value is your talent and potential." Duan Yun threw a slap in his mouth. Peanuts, and then said: "If you are willing to sign this endorsement contract, I will help you release albums, organize concerts, and package promotions for you for free in the future. You don't need to pay a penny. As for your concerts or I don't want any of the money I earn from walking around, we can clearly write these things in the contract, so please don't doubt my sincerity."
