technological heresy

Chapter 98 Fire!
"Hey, Manager Yu, Manager Yu, wait a minute, please give me 3 minutes to introduce myself. My name is Lan Qirui, and I'm a student in Grade [-] and [-] of Nanzhuo Experimental Middle School. I hope to join our casual play band , In terms of musical instruments, I am especially good at flute and suona.”

Yu Hongwei was once again stopped by a classmate from another school at school, and recommended himself to join the casual band.

"Well, student Lan, if you want to join the casual band, you can download an application form from our website now, fill it out and record a talent video as required, and then submit it to our small program background review. If you pass the review, I will contact you."

"No, Manager Yu, I came here on special leave. I brought my flute. How about I show it to you on the spot? I have a very high level, especially in flute performance. I once won the [-]th Yonghan Cup for teenagers." Young Eagle Award in music competition."

"I know, I know, but student Lan, there are really too many students who applied to join our casual band recently. And many of them have won awards. If I open a back door for you, it will not be fair to other students Right? And I have something to do now. Then you can add me to Weichat, and you can send me the talent video directly after recording, OK?"

"Then... that's fine too. Thank you, Director Yu."

……

Yes, this month, Yu Hongwei experienced pain again and was happy.

When Ning Qing confirmed that the name of the band they formed was "Casual Play", Yu Hongwei really thought that Ning Qing just wanted to play casually.

After all, from teachers to students, no one would think that a student who just won the first prize in a mathematical modeling competition would stop doing business and go to play in some band.

Ning Qing should be very busy next time.

For example, he has been selected to enter the national team to represent the Yonghan Republic in the International Mathematical Contest in Modeling.

But Ning Qing specifically called to reject it.

Yes, Ning Qing is too lazy to participate in international competitions.

There are many reasons, such as participating in international competitions, Ning Qing does not have that much power to choose teammates.Because neither Liu Xiaohan nor Yu Hongwei got the qualification to participate in the international competition.

So even if the coach gave Ning Qing this power, Ning Qing didn't bother to wade into this muddy water.

After all, the students who can stand out in the national competition are the best among the students.Everyone who is proud and arrogant will definitely not listen to his advice unconditionally.

Although Ning Qing has many ways to suppress the minds of other team members and listen to his arrangements from topic selection to the final procedure and thesis, but the twisted melon is not sweet after all.Even if the final result is good, if you really win an award in an international competition, maybe the friends who have worked with you will still complain.

The most important thing is that Ning Qing feels that he really doesn't need any more honors at his current age, and he has enough confidence to refuse next year's international competition.At least in the world of Yonghan universities, there are enough old professors with high positions and weights who are willing to endorse him.

In addition, Ning Qing is really busy recently, because his casual band playing has become popular as expected.Instead, it became popular without an offline performance.

This is how things developed.

Yu Hongwei formally decided to join in the formation of the band, and Ning Qing officially announced the establishment of Haizhou Bilingual No. [-] High School Casual Play Band the next day.

Of course, for such a small band formed in the school, there was no disturbance at first.

It was Yu Hongwei who used Ning Qing's name when communicating with the school's music teacher to borrow the venue, and then the school's senior management found out.

Although it felt strange that Ning Qing suddenly decided to form a band, the principal, the dean, and even Ning Qing's head teacher didn't say anything.

Theoretically speaking, Ning Qing is now a member of Jinghan University.Staying on the high school campus for the time being is nothing more than the time has not yet come.It's not a job for high school students to play bands, but when it comes to college, it's so normal.

As a provincial key high school, this pattern still exists.

Not to mention that Ning Qing also helped the school win two places for recommended students from Peking-Han University. At this time, as long as Ning Qing is not thinking about blowing up the school every day, no one will have any opinion on doing other things.

Under such circumstances, the casual play band with Ning Qing, Liu Xiaohan and Yu Hongwei as the initial core was formally established.

This is how Yu Hongwei's busiest high school career began.

When Ning Qing was first appointed as the band manager, Yu Hongwei didn't know what this position represented.

But that afternoon, after 1000 million was added to his account, Yu Hongwei suddenly felt a mountain of pressure.

That's 1000 million...

It's enough to buy a large flat in Haizhou... It's not that Yu Hongwei is bragging, he has never seen such a large sum of money in his life.

So when he saw this text message, he was only stunned for three seconds before rushing to Ningqing, the payer.

"Ning Qing, you transferred 1000 million to me?"

"Yeah, the starting capital for the band's construction. It's mainly used to buy musical instruments and pay the band members' wages. Remember that although our band's name is called Casual Play, we must be serious during the operation. The money I invested 1000 million, I hope it can be recovered, and it is even better to make a fortune."

"No, how is this possible?"

"Nothing is impossible. You just have to do it practically. Your next task is to buy musical instruments, recruit people, and then set a suitable salary for each position to promote the sound development of the band. Besides, in After the formation of the band is completed, we still need to formulate our performance and publicity plans, arrange the daily training of the band, and resolve the conflicts between the band members... In short, all the messy things are your business."

"Okay, I can accept all these, but I don't understand anything and you just give me 1000 million? Are you not afraid that I will hack your money?"

"If you can't even stand the temptation of such a small amount of money, how can you do big things with me in the future? Don't make trouble, is 1000 million a lot? A person's life is only a few decades, don't narrow your horizons so narrowly. This is a random bastard In an era where everyone can live comfortably, you should start thinking about how to carry out grand narratives in the future. As for these small things now, they are just training your ability. In the future, you will rarely come to me for these shitty things. I have more important things Tasks. As long as you think it's good for the band, just do it."

"..."

"By the way, don't forget to give yourself a salary. Well, let's set a monthly salary of three thousand."

"That's okay too?"

"Why not? If you don't get paid, I'm afraid you won't work hard!"

"..."

……

Well, grand narrative.

No matter what, after a brief exchange with Ning Qing, Yu Hongwei calmed down and began to work ignorantly and diligently.

From this day on, Yu Hongwei began to search the Internet for how to be a good band manager, and began to give full play to his subjective initiative, and began to actively plan how to build and develop the band.

When a person really regards something as a career, the power of the person's mental state is very impressive.

For example, Yu Hongwei.

Report and contact with the school, and start recruiting musicians among classmates through official media.Then, according to the characteristics of high school study, use the lunch break and afternoon spare time to contact the music professor's teacher, borrow the school's music classroom to practice in a team, purchase musical instruments, formulate a reward and punishment system, and agree on the salary for training on weekdays, the salary for formal performances, etc. ...

After a busy week, Yu Hongwei finally figured out the trick, and began to arrange everything in an orderly manner, without even taking up too much time and energy.After all, there was really nothing to do in the early days, the only trouble was going out of school to bargain with the bosses of various musical instrument shops.

Of course, it is also to be worthy of my salary.

Just when Yu Hongwei felt full of confidence, thought that he had completely grasped the job, and even felt that there was nothing in this world that could trouble him, Casual Play released the first song of the band.

The title of the song is "Confession Balloon", and it was first broadcast on the campus radio station of Haizhou Bilingual No. [-] Middle School.

"Beside the Haiyan River, the milk tea on the right bank, I hold a cup, taste your beauty, the mouth that left a lip print; the rose in the flower shop, whose name is wrong, the confession balloon wind blows across the street, and the smile flies in the sky..."

When the song representing youthful love reverberated in the campus, there was actually no big disturbance at first, but when someone with good intentions posted the video of the band's rehearsal on the Internet, it was very surprising. This song was composed by Haizhou The song created by the band that played casually in the bilingual No. [-] Middle School, and was labeled as a small fresh love song on campus was beyond everyone's expectations—it became popular!
Moreover, it only took three days to ferment from obscurity to the whole network.

I have to say that humans are really strange creatures.

At first, only the chorus of this song was released by the troublemakers of Haizhou No. [-] Middle School on the Internet, starting with "You said you are a little hard to follow", but this chorus has caught the ears of many people. Then I wanted to search for the whole song, but found that the song "Confession Balloon" was not included in any major music platforms.

So I started to search for the band again, and then found that this casual band was also unknown, which aroused the curiosity of countless netizens, and began to search for all information about this song on a larger scale, and even many water friends spontaneously paid for it. The popularity of buying this half song, I just hope that I can figure out the ins and outs of this song.

Just this "Confession Balloon" suddenly became popular.

In fact, if things develop to this point, there will be no big waves.

After all, the hottest day when discussing this song was only No. 40 on the short video hot search list.In addition to many people digging into Haizhou Bilingual No. [-] Middle School, there are also media calls to inquire, but at the school level, it can be suppressed completely.

But by coincidence, when the popularity of "Confession Balloon" began to decrease, the band Casual Play released two original songs "Blue and White Porcelain" and "Once Upon a Time You" directly on the Internet.

"The blue sky is waiting for misty rain, but I'm waiting for you. The smoke from the kitchen rises thousands of miles across the river, and the Han Li written on the bottom of the bottle imitates the elegance of the previous dynasty. Just think of me as a foreshadowing for meeting you..."

"I once dreamed of going to the end of the world with a sword to see the prosperity of the world. The young heart is always a little frivolous. Now you are home everywhere..."

Both hands also signed the song of the band Casual Play, and with the help of the popularity of "Confession Balloon", it was instantly praised by countless fans.

Similarly, these two songs have not been included by major music platforms. This casual band is still a kind of little-known band. Even the lead singer of the band doesn't have any strong singing skills, but he can't stand the melody of this song The lyrics are really catchy.

Especially the song "Blue and White Porcelain", the melody itself has a kind of classical elegance, and the lyrics also perfectly combine Yonghan's traditional porcelain firing technology with music. A beautiful picture of porcelain fired in the mountains.

It just so happened that Xuzhou, the most famous blue-and-white porcelain firing place in Yonghan, also noticed this song, and even more noticed the popularity of this song, and his response was particularly sensitive. He specially asked experts to comment on this song, and by the way, introduced the development history of blue-and-white porcelain. Introducing Xuzhou's porcelain firing culture, so it took a month for the casual band to become popular on the Internet...

The fire was unreasonable, the fire was unprepared, and Haizhou No. [-] Middle School was in a daze from top to bottom...

Just like Principal Lu, the office phone number leaked out somehow.It was almost treated as a hotline by a group of entertainment reporters.

After all, there are no secrets on the Internet, as long as you are patient enough, you can always find clues.

And whether it's "Confession Balloon" or "Blue and White Porcelain" or "Once Upon a Time", they were all first broadcast on the school radio station after recording. Compared with thousands of students in the whole school, they all know that the casual band is their own student band. Although the management is strict at school, ordinary students cannot access the Internet, but after returning home on weekends, the school can't control it.

There are always some people who will brag on the Internet, so a group of people followed the clues and found Haizhou Bilingual No. [-] Middle School...

Of course, it wasn't just the principal who was confused. In fact, the school's publicity office was also in a state of confusion.

After all, the teacher in charge of publicity did not expect that one day Haizhou Bilingual No. [-] Middle School would become famous all over the country because of a few songs released by a student band.

It wasn't just the reporters who were looking for them, even the three major music platforms of Yonghan and many brokerage companies in the entertainment circle called, insinuating and playing around with the information of the band members, and even hoping to send someone to talk directly, hoping The school can make it easier for the guards to stop people outside.

There is a great intention to let this high school band debut immediately...

This also directly made all the school leaders and teachers unable to deal with it. After all, Haizhou Bilingual No. 60 Middle School has encountered such a thing for the first time in more than [-] years, and has no experience in dealing with it.

What's even more outrageous is that even the Haizhou Municipal Education Bureau and even the Haitong Provincial Education Department were alarmed by this matter, and even sent a special letter to care about this matter.

Fortunately, it is not a criticism. On the contrary, the superior management organization still has a positive attitude towards the school's promotion of quality education and comprehensive support for encouraging children to develop their strengths.It is said that there is a big leader who likes "Blue and White Porcelain" and "Once Upon a Time", and even asked the cafeteria to play these two songs at noon...

This is messed up...
