my gilded age

Chapter 191 Rock War, One-Eyed Pepper
It's late autumn, but the popularity of the new version of "Swordsman" remains undiminished with reruns.

"I feel like there's something wrong with the timing of this new version. It's already the Year of the Apocalypse, and Linghu Chong and Miss Ren have retired in style, but they won't be able to live a stable life for long. The country will soon fall, and the rivers will be shattered..."

"It's true. After the country was in turmoil, Hero Linghu should come out to help the country, or... compete for the world?"

Many netizens connected with history just by looking at it, but some people looked at it from another angle.

"You can't say that. If you really want to talk about history, you can't see what happened after that during the Tianqi period. If you don't say anything else, watch "The Peach Blossom Fan". How long has it been? Why don't you still choose the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai? .”

"Yes, Linghu Chong is not a time traveler, and Master Jin did not write a time travel novel. I have no idea what happened after that. If I came to see it at the time, there weren't many people in Hou Jin."

"Later Yuan Chonghuan proposed five years of peace and Liaoning, but he didn't take it seriously."

This angle is also quite interesting. It can be said that there is a lot of discussion on the Internet. Moreover, this time it is interpreted from a historical perspective, which is quite interesting.

No matter what kind of discussion, as long as there is such a discussion, it means that there is a topic and a hot spot.

Bai Shiqiu had never expected such a change, but it was definitely a good thing.

But for now, Lao Bai is still devoted to his music festival.

……

Yao Xiaona has come into contact with many people. Although she has not come into contact with many men and has such a strict father, Bai Shiqiu is definitely a very special man.

This man seemed to have endless energy, and he was never tired in his career.

I heard that he was filming a movie before, and now he is here to organize a music festival. Although this music festival was an idea proposed a long time ago, this man... is he busy enough?
"Nana, what's the problem?"

"no no……"

Maybe the look was too much, which attracted the guy's attention. Yao Xiaona was a little flustered, but fortunately, she recovered immediately.

Bai Shiqiu didn't notice anything. He was still busy with his own affairs.

"How is the stage set up this time?"

"There's a big screen in the middle, that's what you asked for, and the other thing is to highlight some of the metallic feel."

"Okay, Brother Meng, it's all up to you this time."

"Don't worry you."

In terms of stage design, our Red Star also has someone, Zhang Meng, he originally studied this. However, most of the previous designs were theater stages. This time he designed the concert, and it was in a rock style. It was really The ones are very fresh.Fortunately, Lao Bai has a lot of ideas and he came up with a lot of ideas.

"Lighting, where is the lamp master?"

"In the……"

"We are here on the spot this time, so we can't make any mistakes."

"Brother Bai, don't worry, it'll be okay."

"But it takes a lot of people."

"I found all the folks, and they are safe..."

Lord Deng, there was someone there too, Wang Jingyan from before followed him directly.

It's quite interesting to talk about him. The lighting engineers in the film and television industry in mainland China probably come from the same place. It is said that there was a lighting master there back then. He came out and became active in the film and television industry.

This time it's stage lighting, but some of us aren't?
In the past, Red Star Youth Tour used a professional team, but there was a problem...the price was relatively expensive.

Although Bai Shiqiu didn't follow every day during that tour, he still learned some things, and it's just right to use them now.

In this way, the stage aspect is about the same, but the sound and other aspects are easier to deal with, as long as the money is given, there is no way to save money in this aspect.

Bai Shiqiu's greatest ability is saving money...

The location was naturally chosen in a place very close to the city. Music festivals are like this. The cost is low, and you are not allowed to do it in the magic city. In addition, there are a series of things such as sanitation, security, etc.

It should be said that it was okay and in good order. Now the only problem left is that a band must come to the music festival.

"How are you doing over there? Can you come over?"

"Don't worry, you can get the money."

"Don't you believe me, brother?"

Young Brother, Wang Feng, and Zhang Yadong kept calling, but there seemed to be some problems...

"What's going on? Still not coming?" Bai Shiqiu saw that the faces of these brothers were a little ugly.

"This... is indeed quite difficult." The young man smiled bitterly.

"Old Bai, why don't we just do it?" Wang Feng came up with an idea.

"In one scene..." Zhang Yadong wanted to help.

It's a music festival. Since it's called a festival, it can't be one.

Bai Shiqiuduo said nothing, and directly made a big move, "Double the appearance fee. Those who are not famous, especially newcomers, tell them that they will be given 5000 yuan a day, and those with good background will be given [-] yuan. If they don't come, forget it." .”

One day 5000?

This is no small feat. Many bands were in a miserable state when they were not famous. They took on singing gigs in bars, and 5000 was almost what they earned in a month.

A small, unknown band must be paying for it, and even if the band is paying this price, isn't Lao Bai stingy?

Bai Shiqiu's principle is, if you can save it, you can save it, if you can't... then don't save it.

"Moreover!" Bai Shiqiu had something else to say, "Our music festival this time is in a battle mode. In the end, the most popular band and their music will become the stars of our new star drama "Soldiers" The theme song of "Assault", and I will also have the opportunity to appear on the TV station. Everyone has seen the previous "Swordsman", and this time there will be a small program before the launch of "Soldier"."

This condition is quite tempting.

Young Brother, Wang Feng and Zhang Yadong all think it's great. Who doesn't want to be famous in a band?
However, looking at Bai Shiqiu's smiling face, they could also sense that there might be something going on here, but...

If you have something to do, it's your fault. We're just doing our thing and keep calling.

Battle, the theme song of the TV series, at least 5000 a day, all conditions are met.

So will any band come?

……

A newly opened bar near Gyeonggi Province.

"Brothers, today is all mine!"

"Ha ha, alright!"

"Master Zang is open and bright!"

"Thank you very much."

Zang Tianshuo shook his big head and smiled happily.

The bar belongs to him. Although the location is still very ordinary, it is much better than before. The business has improved, and he is naturally happy. But what makes him happiest today is something else.

I heard before that Zhang Yadong took refuge in that boy Bai Shiqiu, which made Zang Tianshuo very angry.

You guys are in the same group in terms of feelings, so you are working together to trick me, right?

I also heard that this guy Zhang Yadong was going to hold a music festival, and he even went to see Midi.

Damn it, you guys can do it, my Master Zang’s name is written backwards!
The rock circle also has its own classifications, there are those who are famous and popular, Cui San'er, Dou Wei and others back then, now Xu Shaonian, Wang Feng, Lao Zheng, and Zang Tianshuo himself.

Underground rock, as you can tell by its name, is a bit shady. This group of people is not popular, or indeed, some of their songs are not popular. There are too many swear words in them, and they have to fight each other, and they will directly fight after drinking too much. Whatnot, as for that fan... I won’t talk about it.

Many bands that are not popular, especially the new bands, are mostly underground.

Or to put it simply, these days, there aren’t many people playing rock music, and they don’t make any money. Most of them are underground bands.Zang Tianshuo still has considerable influence on these bands. He has some resources of his own, which can give those bands a chance to perform and even make an appearance on TV. He has also explored some of them.

Now, Master Zang has spoken. If you want to hang out with Master Zang in the future, don’t go to that red star shining Yangtze River Music Festival!
From the current point of view, Master Zang's words are really useful. Those who are famous in underground rock are drinking in this bar.

but……

"What? What's the matter?"

"Ah? Is that so?"

"really?"

Suddenly, Zang Tianshuo found many people answering the phone, and then, this changed.

"Master Zang, I'm sorry, I have something to do..."

"Well, thank you Master Zang today."

"See you later, Mr. Zang..."

what happened?

Zang Tianshuo was quite confused. Why did these people leave?

……

"The Red Star Shines Yangtze River Rock Music Festival will be a grand event for young people..."

"The music festival brings together dozens of young bands from all over the country. These bands will be divided into two teams through auditions and compete against each other. Under the leadership of their respective mentors, the final winner will score the soundtrack for the new drama "Soldier Assault" on Oriental TV! "

"PK uses a live sound mode, and every audience can participate. The battle begins on October 10st!"

Oriental Channel also has small local channels that are not star-rated. The news that has appeared most recently is about the "Red Star Shines Yangtze River Rock Music Festival".

In fact, they are all advertisements. These channels are not star-rated and are mainly targeted at the local area. The relative advertising time is inherently cheap.

This was the condition that Bai Shiqiu negotiated with Li Ruigang before. You SMG will help us promote our music festival, and this will also include "Soldier Assault".

Li Ruigang is such a smart person. He immediately saw that there is something interesting here, especially for promoting the new drama "Soldier Assault". This is great.

However, there is also a problem, that is, how can Bai Shiqiu use this music festival to promote "Soldier"?
Also, is it really necessary to find the winning band of the music festival for the soundtrack of "Soldier"?
Do you really want a rock n' roll?

Bai Shiqiu didn't say much, just smiled and said, "Brother Li, if you have time, you can come and take a look. You will know then."

This made Li Ruigang very confused. Should he go?

On October 10st, the red star shone at the Yangtze River Music Festival. In the evening, there was a sea of ​​people.

"What is a music festival?"

"I don't know! But I heard there are many abroad."

"Then we..."

"Of course it is a must. Shanghai is so international."

There are too many people, and some people even don’t know what the music festival is about. Fortunately, after all, Shanghai is an international metropolis, and some people start to use foreign music festivals as a trap.

That's right, they are all music festivals.

Oh oh oh!
Bang Bang!

buzzing...

Music, electronic music, heavy metal, sounds like noise to people, and it also stirs everyone's blood.

"Wow!"

"get high!"

Maybe the singing level on that stage was not very high, but the atmosphere was very good.

When Yao Xiaona saw this scene, her heart skipped a beat.

Not afraid, but excited!
I am really excited. I have never sang in front of so many people. Her voice has been heard by many people before, but many people don't know what she looks like.

And this time... I still don't know what she looks like.

why?
"Nana!"

"Old Bai? Why are you scaring me?"

"I just talked to you, what were you thinking?"

"Oh, I didn't think about anything..."

Excited, besides, the scene was too noisy, it's normal if I didn't hear it.

Bai Shiqiu, on the other hand, didn't care so much, and seemed to be screaming at Yao Xiaona, "Indulge! Release! Let yourself go! Don't think about anything! Whatever skills, this or that, let them go!"

Yao Xiaona was so shocked that she finally shouted back: "Okay!"

Free yourself, free!
On the stage, there is someone presiding over it.

"Invite our War Pepper!"

War Peppers?
Who is it?

I don’t know, there aren’t many people here who know about it, and I’ve never heard of it, but it doesn’t matter, just shout.

"Oh oh oh..."

"War Pepper!"

"Wow..."

I really don’t know what the meaning is, but anyway, it’s pretty cool to just shout it out.

And amidst all the shouting and yelling, there was one more person on the stage, and she was... really different.

She was wearing clothes that looked like military uniforms, with big metal buckles, pockets, and holes. They were dirty. However, the leather boots were very good. The most special thing was that the girl had a black eyepatch over her left eye. A head of red hair!
Could it be that she was a female warrior who experienced a war?
Many people have such a thought in their hearts, but before they think about it, the music will come right away.

This little pepper is also crisp and started directly.

Look at this silent world~~
no~~
The atmosphere of despair is so strong~~
no~~
The once noisy street where people fled like crazy ~
The smell of gunpowder makes all life wither~
The cry of the earth spreads throughout the world~
How to stop!

The moment the war begins!

No one in the whole city was spared~
The moment the war begins!

Who in the whole city comes to pay homage~
The boy who sells newspapers on a bicycle~
Tears of panic slowly covered the side of the face~
……

Explode, release, let yourself go... these words no longer exist in Yao Xiaona's mind at this time.

Who the hell thinks so much!

"Wow!"

"Is this little pepper okay?"

"Where is she from? She is so strong!"

The music festival broke out at this moment, and the audience became one with the powerful and rough electronic music.

It was only evening, and the epiphyllum was already in full bloom.
