Chapter 185 Gaoqi Band
Yu Jiang went back to Jing City this time not just to watch Ran Feng's concert. He had to go to Jing City TV Station early the next morning to prepare for the New Year's Eve party.
This Guo Ning'an incident seemed to be an opportunity for Yuxiao's employees to perform. In addition to the open prosecution, they also investigated her carefully behind the scenes.
Artists like her are the ones who are most susceptible to investigation. Nothing happened to her in the past because she was not well-known enough, but this time when Yuxiao took action, she will inevitably be "dead".
In addition to creating an address book identity for herself and collaborating with internet celebrities to hype herself up, things like tax evasion and hiring male models were also dug up.
The former "Asia's No. 1 Sweet Girl" has now become a rat crossing the street that everyone wants to beat, and the artists who were previously framed by her have now been vindicated.
Ran Feng’s concert in Jing City is over, and the next step is to rush to the next concert venue.
There are still a few days of free time in between, but unfortunately I have to attend the New Year's Eve party in my hometown, so I can't stay in Beijing to celebrate the New Year's Eve with my girlfriend.
The two of them always coordinated their itineraries. He knew that Yu Jiang would go to Qiongdao after the Little New Year, so he deliberately chose this as the venue for the next concert.
Originally, Ran Feng's concert was to be held in areas where it had never been held before. Qiongdao was also one of his choices this time, but the order was based on Yu Jiang's schedule.
Yu Jiang will stay in Qiongdao for five days, and the recording of "A Hundred Flavors of Life" will take a full twenty-four hours.
She was already busy during this period, and she didn't know what Davis was thinking, but he insisted on recording a love variety show in Qiongdao, which took two days.
Excluding the time for the journey and the rest, Yu Jiang had to spend the entire five days after the New Year's Eve on Qiong Island.
In comparison, Ran Feng's task was not so heavy. Yu Xiao solved the problem of the venue, and Su Ruixiu took care of the other settings and arrangements.
Apart from the day of the Little New Year, his tasks this week are to do some routine work such as rehearsals, practice, and program adaptation.
Su Ruixiu also secured him a chance to audition for a large group, and he could just go to Qiongdao to perform on the day after the audition.
After sending Yu Jiang to the TV station, Ran Feng also started to get busy, as two studio variety shows and next month's magazine were waiting for him.
We knew before that Shi Ruida didn’t have many job opportunities, so he would mention it whenever he takes on a variety show. The two variety shows this time are almost like a bundled sale.
Shi Ruida actually had a lot more job opportunities after participating in "Eagles Training Camp", but his resources were definitely not as good as Ran Feng's.
Of course I am extremely happy to have my master guiding me and I cherish this job opportunity very much.
Unlike Ran Feng, who had a pleasant experience recording a program with his familiar friends, Yu Jiang is in a miserable situation now.
Originally, due to her busy schedule, she did not attend the preliminary meeting for the Beijing New Year's Eve live broadcast. Now that she has come to rehearse after the program has been finalized, it is a bit too late.
In the rehearsal room, I met the band that was going to perform with me on stage, Gaoqi Band. The five rock band members didn’t look very friendly.
Looking at the history of Chinese rock, Gaoqi Band has made a significant contribution to it.
Gaoqi Band was founded in the 1980s and is one of the earliest rock bands in China.
When it was first established, the band was called "Gaoqi Band". Later in the late 1990s, due to changes in the band members, Takasaki Jun was the only old member who remained unchanged.
Takasaki Jun believes that "starting a band" belongs to the original members, and only after the new members joined did they change the name to one based on his name as the lead singer and guitarist.
Now that Chinese rock has gone underground, Gaoqi Band has become a banner-like band and an object of worship for young bands.
After rock music fell out of favor, Gaoqi Band usually performed at music festivals and rarely appeared on TV.
This time, the theme of Beijing TV's New Year's Eve party is rock. If the landmark Gaoqi Band cannot be invited, then the theme will not be convincing.
As a band that originated in Beijing, Gaoqi Band was also willing to participate, but they were still quite resentful about having new members join their band.
Professional matters should be done by professionals. This sentence is applicable in all walks of life.
The film queen Yu Jiang wanted to join the rock band's performance, which was considered extremely unprofessional by the members of Gaoqi Band.
However, this was also the result of careful consideration by the TV station. Gaoqi Band appeared at important points in the evening party, and Yu Jiang was the most popular artist they could invite.
Nowadays, the importance of watching the programs in evening parties is far less than that of watching the people. An evening party without traffic is an unsuccessful party.
Gao Qijun originally had some reservations about Yu Jiang's joining. Before he even met her in the early meetings, he had a preconceived notion that she didn't take this stage seriously enough.
Therefore, as soon as Yu Jiang entered the rehearsal room, he didn't get a good response.
The five members of the band were sitting scattered around the rehearsal room. When Yu Jiang came in and said hello, they didn't respond.
Gao Qijun was a little different from what Yu Jiang saw in the video footage. In his middle age, he had returned to his original simplicity, cut his long hair, and wore less heavy metal clothes.
Compared to his flat-top hairstyle, the hairstyles of other new musicians are a bit novel.
The bassist's hair was highlighted in gray, the two guitarists had low ponytails like twins, and the drummer had a buzz cut and dyed his pitifully long hair red.
Yu Jiang expressed her understanding of their cold attitude. She would feel uncomfortable if she was filming a movie well and suddenly someone with connections joined in.
After all, he has become more stable as he gets older, and it was finally Takasaki Jun who spoke up to break the silence.
"Does Queen Yu know the piece we are going to perform? We don't have many opportunities to rehearse."
Finally someone paid attention to her, so Yu Jiang took the opportunity to express his attitude, "After I knew the repertoire, I also practiced it a bit, how about asking the teachers for some guidance?"
Gao Qijun pointed at one of the "twin" guitarists and said, "Help me sing along."
Seeing that the guitarist was not interested, Yu Jiang found a way out for himself, "Don't bother Mr. Wang, I'll just play it at my own pace first."
He said this because he could see that he was reluctant, but in the eyes of the guitarist surnamed Wang, he was no longer needed.
Yu Jiang sat in front of the drum set and performed the entire piece he had been practicing for some time.
"The Ancestor of Rock" is included in the band's first album, and it was also the original intention of Takasaki Jun's rock dream.
Songs with too many heavy metal elements, both in rhythm and lyrics, express the anger of young people.
"The night shrouds my clothes, the shackles pierce my skin, the blood is flowing, the sun is above my head, and the reverberation in my ears~"
"They slew the rebels and overthrew the old throne, they lit a fire and buried the rulers in a grave..."
Rock music has always praised rebels. They are the ancestors who overthrew feudal rule hundreds of years ago, and they are also the singers who fired the first shot of rock music.
