Chapter 263: Chinese Rock

No one can say when rock appeared in China, it seems that overnight, there was rock in China, and it seems that there were all kinds of rock overnight.

The west wind blew, and for a while, heroes and heroes from all walks of life, accompanied by all kinds of demons and monsters, all came out at once, and collectively spoke, as if China really had rock.

But unfortunately, the revolutionary sound of Chinese pop music has only been issued once in the course of decades of development.

Later, real and fake rock fans were nostalgic for Hung Hom in 1994, because that concert really seemed to be the pinnacle of Chinese rock music.

A few young people captured Xiangjiang, the center of Asian pop music at that time, isn't it bull B?

But also as a rock fan, what Yi Qing misses is 1986 that he has never experienced, when he was only a few years old, and later watched the video on the Internet, when Cui Jian shouted on stage: I used to ask endlessly.

At that moment, Yi Qing felt trembling all over his body, and from that time on, he was fascinated by the boiling night of the Beijing Gongti in 1986, the young man in a long coat and playing the guitar, the sloppy man singing "Nothing", and the "godfather of rock and roll" in China.

Later, many people regarded Cui Jian's voice as the anniversary of the birth of Chinese rock, which is a revolutionary and milestone sound in the history of Chinese music, and it is also a concrete embodiment of the change in the concept of Chinese young people who have opened up.

Cui Jian appropriately grasped the expression of Chinese rock, his rock expressed what the subconscious of young people in the 80s wanted to express, and he used rock to inspire this generation.

For many years to come, no matter the ups and downs, Cui Jian has always been consistent, singing honestly, honestly and freely. He is one of the very few people who never forgives himself, and he is the most quiet soul in this increasingly impetuous time.

After Cui Jian, more and more young people began to come into contact with it, became obsessed, and insisted on using rock to express their musical attitudes, as if rock had taken root in China and would eventually thrive.

But in fact, from the beginning to the era of Yi Qing's rebirth, rock and roll in China not only failed to soar into the sky, but was still a niche, always so half-dead, only when those old guns roared a few times, people found that there was still rock in China.

Many people like to flaunt Chinese rock, but they never thought that with the word "China", they can't get rid of the trend of localization. As for China's social culture, no one can speak clearly, and the hidden cultural meson is bound to have a certain impact on rock and roll.

Even in the era of Yi Qing's previous life, rock and roll will still be incomprehensible and unacceptable to many people. There is nothing wrong with rock and roll, but what is wrong is that it was born in the social class of China.

In Yi Qing's view, the fact that rock is not accepted by the public in China is not a false proposition in itself. In fact, those rock musicians can develop their own circles with peace of mind, don't have to make too much noise, and don't always want to go into the mainstream.

If you like it, you will like it after all, and if you don't like it, you will feel annoyed if you watch it too much.

Rockers don't have to worry about it, because that's all there is to it in China.

Some say that the decline of Chinese rock music is due to the immature business model, some say that it is a cognitive problem of the audience, and some say that the creative ability of Chinese rock is exhausted.

Yi Qing basically agreed, he believed that there were several factors, and that when rock music entered China, the Chinese at that time were not ready to accept it, and were swayed by this novelty, including the audience and the rock musicians themselves.

Dou Xian'er once said: I think everyone lives in a dream, and we do things for this dream. Although the dream wakes up and people scatter in the end, the soul that once struggled for the dream is forever young.

As he said, although the hottest era of rock and roll was short, but it was wonderful enough, in the end, rock and roll is still a minority culture in China, this culture in China and contradict the mainstream culture, want to develop, either compete with the mainstream culture, or merge with it, obviously this competition has no chance of winning, but unwilling to merge, can only hang half-dead, refusing to swallow the last breath.

When Yi Qing first came into contact with rock and roll in his previous life, he had just been discharged from the army, and he was immediately hooked, but at that time, rock and roll was the most declining in China, Cui Jian was depressed, Sanjie was gone, and the well-known bands were disbanded.

But Yi Qing just liked it, and he went crazy for a while, practicing the guitar day and night, and the hand of stir-frying kept plucking on the strings, and his fingers could rub out sparks.

This is also why, when he heard Ye Jing and Liu Zheng bickering and mentioning rock and roll, he was so excited.

Liu Zhengzheng and Ye Jing exchanged ideas every day, and when they suddenly heard Yi Qing coming, they were all stunned, and only after a while did they say, "Xiao Yi, you also know rock and roll?"

Yi Qing nodded hurriedly: "I know, there are already foreign countries, what's the matter, there are people playing in China now?"

Liu Zheng saw that Yi Qing was not with Ye Jing all the way, and he immediately became interested: "Yes! Why not, now here in the capital, many people are playing." ”

"Brother Liu, do you know Cui Jian?"

When he asked this sentence, Yi Qing's heart was pounding wildly, he liked a lot of stars, but if he really wanted to say that he was an idol, there was only one Cui Jian!

Liu Zheng didn't understand, why was Yi Qing so excited: "Cui Jian, I know, I used to be the guitarist of their band, I am quite familiar, how do you know him?"

Yi Qing was stunned when he heard this, looked at Liu Zheng, and said in his heart: No!?

It's not that he doesn't believe it, the key is that Cui Jian's first rock band is too famous, plywood, and a rock fan doesn't know.

Yi Qing later bought their album at a high price from others, and the seven people on the cover were wearing tuxedos and bow ties, stupid.

There's no Liu Zheng in this!?

"Brother Liu, are you a member of the Seven Plywood?"

The plywood band should have been there last year, and they also released an album, but they have no influence, and they are not really rock and roll, and they are far from Cui Jian's mature style.

"I was the original member, but then ~~~~~~ you also saw that the ancestral craft of the family cannot be lost, so I quit, but we are having a good time now. ”

I see!

This is the same as the guitar emperor Yang Shuangshu, he just had a cerebral thrombosis, and as a result, the guitar band became popular.

"Brother Liu, if you have time, can you take me to have a look?"

Liu Zheng smiled: "What's the matter?"

Yi Qing nodded hurriedly: "I like it, I like it so much, I heard that there are people in China who play rock and roll, but I have never encountered it." ”

Liu Zheng is also a cheerful person, and immediately agreed: "Cheng! After drinking later, I will take you over, and they will rehearse all day long in a courtyard on the other side of Dongcheng!"

As he spoke, guests began to come to the door, and Liu Zheng got up and went to work.

"Xiao Yi, are you really fake, and you still like that thing?" Ye Jing looked puzzled and glanced at the guitar in the corner, "You will do that too?"

Could it not?

In order to practice playing the guitar in Yi Qing's previous life, his fingers were smoking, and he had to put it in cold water to cool down.

"Yes!"

Ye Jing listened, it was not surprising, no one in their group had ever had the experience of fighting with the piano before, Yi Qing was also a plucker, and it was not a new thing to be able to play the guitar.

"Come on, come over later, I'm not going to accompany you, seriously, I can't listen to that thing, it's too noisy!"

Yi Qing didn't force it, and then diverted the topic, he wanted to set up a music production company, in the southern venue, manual or anything is easy to do, the key is the recording equipment, there is no production of these things in China now, and if you want to import from abroad, it is really difficult for him personally.

"Lao Ye, is there a way, get a pass for our brothers, we plan to go to Xiangjiang." ”

Ye Jing didn't react much, but Li Chengru was stunned.

When did I say I was going to Xiangjiang?

"Xiangjiang, what are you doing there?"

Yi Qing explained: "If I want to be a company, I can't just be an empty shell, at least I have to have recording equipment, but in China, where do you let me go to buy and change? I don't even think about second-hand ones, but it's not easy to go abroad now, so I plan to go to Xiangjiang to see if I can buy a set of equipment over there!"

Buying equipment is one thing, the most important thing is that Yi Qing wants to prepare for the money-making plan, and wants to make money by jumping up and down with the Japanese valuation convulsion, which is simply not possible in China, and now the country is not in line with international finance, and the so-called stock market is still in the stage of self-entertainment.

Xiangjiang, as a major financial center in Asia, is different, it is convenient to do anything there, and Yi Qing can completely let go of his hands and feet.

"That's a bit of a problem, so I'll show you. ”

Ye Jing didn't give an accurate word, but with Yi Qing's understanding of him after these few contacts with him, he didn't refuse, which means that there is a way to do this.

"Come on, Lao Ye, please take care of this!"

Ye Jing picked up the wine glass and touched it with Yi Qing: "Didn't say it!"

After drinking, Ye Jing left first, Li Chengru was still busy looking for a place to open a branch, and after sitting for a while, he left, leaving Yi Qing until six o'clock in the afternoon, and Liu Zheng closed the door and boarded.

"Xiao Yi, let's go!"

Yi Qing hurriedly got up and watched his reaction, which was more positive than anything else, after all, this was going to meet an idol!
