Chapter 7: The First Shot
Rock in this time and space used to be very popular, and the singers of the older generation, Yuanzong and the Great Windmill Band, were among the best.
In the early eighties, singer Yuan Zong was once known as the "King of Rock and Roll", leading the rise of rock music.
At the end of the 80s, the big windmill band with rock as the main theme sprung up, repeatedly won double platinum record certification, and also set a proud record of selling more than one million in two weeks.
However, from the mid-90s to the present, after fans gradually got tired of the routine of rock and roll, sad songs that were suppressed by rock and roll in the past have gradually risen.
However, even so, the rock era that he once walked through still makes countless fans cherish memories.
The era that was willing to live for rock and roll and die for rock and roll took away the youth of a generation.
Most of the people sitting at the Blue Moon Bar are men and women from that era. After witnessing the heyday of rock and roll, these people are more and more disappointed with the increasingly weak rock and roll today, and as a result, the record sales of rock singers are getting worse and worse, and now, rock has become a memory, and no one will easily touch this forbidden area.
But when the handsome boy in the center of the stage finished singing a rock song, everyone's hearts almost clenched, and then they beat wildly.
No one thought that the content of rock 'n' roll, in addition to rebellion and darkness, could also reveal the meaning of thinking about friendship and life.
If you only have this life, what is the use of starting over?
"Come on, come on...... There is one more cup after drinking this one. ”
"After drinking this one more, there are three more glasses!"
When Li Qing said this sentence with a smile, there was instant applause in the warm, comfortable and blues-style bar hall.
Everyone felt their blood boiling, and they stood up excitedly, picked up their wine glasses, and drank them all.
"Is this really your original?"
Lao Jiang was very excited, his face was flushed with excitement, he waved his fist vigorously, jumped on the stage, like an old naughty boy, tirelessly circled around Li Qing: "Genius, really genius!"
"Genius, I don't dare to be!" Li Qing put the guitar back in Lao Jiang's hands and said with a smile: "So...... Am I qualified?"
"Qualified, of course qualified!"
Lao Jiang rubbed his hands excitedly, and the crowd next to him shook his head and smiled, he also knew that something was wrong, so he quickly calmed down, and then stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Come, solemnly recognize, my name is Jiang Zhongnan, as you can see, I am the person in charge of the Blue Moon Bar, and people who are familiar with me call me Lao Jiang." In the future, you will sing in my bar, you can rest assured, although our bar does not seem to have many people, but the average consumption level is still a few percent higher than the average bar, you have this strength and level, and your tips will definitely be indispensable in the future. ”
"Thank you, Brother Jiang!" Li Qing also stretched out his hand and thanked him repeatedly.
He is a sophisticated person, although Jiang Zhongnan said that people who are familiar with him call him Lao Jiang, but the key is that Li Qing is not familiar with the other party, and the most important thing is that for a period of time in the future, the other party will still be his own boss.
Then the title of Lao Jiang is not something he can call catchy.
Therefore, if others give you face, they can afford you, but if you don't know how to raise your nose and enjoy your face, then the road after that is likely to become a dead end.
Jiang Zhongnan was obviously very satisfied with Li Qing's performance, and after learning Li Qing's name and basic information, he asked the bar staff to record Li Qing's work information on the spot.
Since then, Li Qing has become a resident singer in the bar, with an hourly salary of 50 yuan per hour and two hours a day.
Among them, during working hours, if the customer orders a song alone, the bar will only take 20% of the profit, including electricity and musical instrument rental fees.
If there is a windfall, such as a guest's tip, etc., the bar will not take a penny, and all of it will be owned by Li Qing.
This treatment made Li Qing very satisfied.
According to Jiang Zhongnan, the bar singers in the entire capital may not find such superior treatment.
......
In the following resident singing, Li Qing did not continue to be a blockbuster.
Good songs also need to be brewed to take shape, the song "Sudden Self" is just an interview emergency, if you want to really become a good singer, your own real strength is also very important.
In order to adapt to the general environment and hone his singing skills, he began to try to play and sing songs that are popular in the world.
To be honest, he sang a little stumbling and even out of tune.
However, fortunately, he also has a handsome and handsome face, and with this face alone, he has received a lot of tips.
And more than ninety percent of the people who cheered were women.
This also confirms Lao Jiang's original expectations.
Even if this kid doesn't do anything, just standing in the center of the stage, it is a shining cash cow.
After a period of time, Li Qing's reputation in the Blue Moon Bar gradually grew, and more and more lonely families began to join the listening crowd at the Blue Moon Bar from all directions.
They looked at Li Qing with shining eyes, and listened to the half-baked songs, religiously like believers.
During the time that Blue Moon was working, Li Qing also learned that he was not the only resident singer in the bar.
Before him, a Northern Drifter named Bao Yunyun had been singing in Blue Moon for a year and four months, she was twenty-three or fourteen years old, with a very heroic temperament, but she was good at many delicate love songs that were widely known to the public.
This bright contrast made Bao Yunyun unique among the interviews of many resident singers at the beginning, and she was instantly taken under Jiang Zhongnan's command.
Before Li Qing came, Bao Yunyun was the pillar of the Blue Moon Bar in the true sense.
Regardless of men and women, their first impression of Bao Yunyun is actually very good.
Atmospheric, not pretentious, enough for gentlemen, and it can be let go in a noisy bar.
Li Qing has watched Bao Yunyun's singing several times at the scene, this is a northern woman who is good at drums and electronic piano, twenty-three or four years old, not very beautiful, but there is a unique beauty, like the actress Fan Bingbing, who was well known in her previous life, but her voice is much better than Fan Bingbing.
Clear and translucent, with a sense of hoarseness and scratching people's hearts.
......
Didi!
"Mr. Li Qing, I hereby inform you that a new round of program recording will be held on Beijing TV at 14 o'clock in the afternoon on September 14, please be sure to be on time. Message: Beijing TV "Music Star" program group. ”
Looking at the information displayed on the pager, Li Qing, who had just stepped off the bar stage, exhaled deeply.
Three weeks have passed, and the day after tomorrow is the recording of the program of "Music Star".
Compared with three weeks ago, Li Qing's voice has made some small breakthroughs in the more than ten days of bar singing and training, at least humming "Qinghai-Tibet Plateau" will not break again, although the treble is not so loud.
Coupled with frequent exercise, he sang "Match Heaven", a song that requires lung capacity, and he no longer breathed.
That's progress!
Li Qing is very satisfied with this state.
A little bit of progress every day.
The day after tomorrow, it will be a new battle, and he believes that he can still fight again from thousands of troops and become the lucky one to win the first place.
In addition, according to the news that has been obtained, the recording of the "Music Star" program that he participated in will also be broadcast on Beijing Satellite TV at 8 o'clock tonight.
A new campaign is coming.
And the first shot that came to this world, after three weeks, finally began to reverberate powerfully!
