Chapter 21 The road is narrow
Banquet scene.
It's lively.
The older generation of musicians is not the same as the current traffic niche, they didn't have so many bells and whistles in that era, the Internet was not particularly developed, they were all more pragmatic, and almost everyone had a few real brushes in their hands.
The purpose of the banquet is not only to get together and connect with each other, but also to exchange music.
An old-timer in the music industry is anxious, and he has already stood on the stage first, sitting at the piano to audition.
This person He Xiao knew, he often listened to his songs when he was a child, and he was the most popular in the past few years, especially the masterpiece, which was almost a must-have ringtone for everyone at that time.
However, because of his mediocre appearance, and the number of albums is not much, he has gradually faded out of the public eye after a few years of not being popular.
He sat there, with a little pot on his back, which was very different from He Xiao's impression.
"Lao Ding, can you do it?"
"I don't think you're a sword old, you're a rusty knife!"
"You, you're still so anxious, the first one went up and didn't sing for a long time. ”
"Teacher Ding, open up. ”
“......”
A group of music veterans of the same generation quipped.
Ding Liang was not annoyed, with a smile on his face, his two wrinkled palms were placed on the piano so casually, and then suddenly he played like a storm.
The crisp and loud piano sound came out, and it turned out to be a famous foreign song with a very tight rhythm, which was extremely difficult, and people who had not practiced for a few years could not play it at all.
He Xiao has also studied the piano, but he can only make some simple tunes, like this kind of world-famous music, he doesn't know it at all.
Ding Liang is worthy of being a representative figure of the older generation of singers, his hands are full of real work, and he looks no different from an ordinary little old man when he looks at the audience, but as soon as he stands on the stage, the whole person changes, and he is completely the demeanor of a music master.
At the end of the song, everyone sent warm applause.
"Yes, old Ding. ”
"I haven't seen you for a few years, but your skills have grown a lot!"
"Teacher Ding is so good!"
After all, it was the first performance, and everyone gave enough face, and the venue was hot.
"You guys, then, who will challenge me this year?" Ding Liang got up and stepped down, his tone modest.
According to the rules of previous years, the competition is colorful, everyone can challenge the singer who performs on stage first, challenge the failure to punish a glass of wine, challenge the success of the other party to punish a glass.
It's not a serious competition, it's just a joke between everyone, trying to have fun.
"It's all so humble, no one challenges it, then I'll come!"
A former little diva stood up, her name is Ye Hongyan, a singer over there, known as the Queen of Sweet Songs, and she was also the most popular in the past few years, but later she got older and gradually withdrew from the music scene.
She and Ding Liang should be old acquaintances, the two joked for a while, and then went on stage to sing their most popular masterpiece of the year without hiding it at all.
The group of old friends in the audience naturally gave enough face, applauding one by one, and some whistled.
She stepped down and smiled: "How is it, old Dingtou?
Ding Liangle waved his hand: "Haha, our old Ding doesn't care about lesbians in general, this time, even if I lose." ”
After speaking, he poured a full glass of white wine, tilted his neck and dried it up, grinning spicy.
"Hey, what do you mean even if you do?" Ye Hongyan raised her eyebrows, this old man was too annoying to speak.
Everyone laughed when they saw this, and the atmosphere was very lively.
The competition continued, and many singers of the older generation went up to sing a few songs of their own tricks, which attracted pieces of applause.
He Xiao sat in the audience and watched very seriously, only if he has been in contact with real singers, he will know how big the gap between the two sides is.
Especially the veterans present, almost all of them are powerful, and the quality is more than one grade stronger than those little fresh meat in the current music scene, and listening to them sing has benefited a lot.
Although He Xiao's singing skills are not bad, after all, there is no end to learning, listening to them sing live, especially listening to this kind of small stage without tuning and professional equipment, the harvest is really not ordinary.
......
Li Chengxun always sat in the audience, eating snacks with Erlang's legs crossed, and seemed to have little interest in singing competitions, and occasionally swept his eyes over, and he was also full of superiority.
These people debuted at the same time as him, and they were competitors before, but later they all became outdated, but he still maintained his super popularity and became a veritable bigwig in the entertainment industry.
He naturally looks down on these outdated old guys, which is also very normal and human.
The entertainment industry itself is a place that integrates vanity and interests, especially in the domestic entertainment industry, actors no longer become a pure profession, whether it is in front of the stage or behind the scenes, there are a lot of star chasers, and individual young and vigorous actors feel superior.
Although Li Chengxun is an old fritter and an old man, he still can't let go of his former superiority, standing in front of this group of outdated old singers who once debuted with him, but now no one cares, that psychological superiority is almost uncontrollable.
Especially now, watching these people as if they had never sung before, they rushed to sing on so many small stages, and I felt ridiculous in my heart.
He just held a concert of 10,000 people last month, how could he still afford such a small banquet competition.
"It's been a long time since I've heard Brother Li perform, so come here and show your hand. ”
At this time, someone saw Li Chengxun sitting there eating and drinking by himself, and thought that he had snubbed him, so he warmly opened his mouth and invited.
Several other old singers also smiled and agreed, "Yes, Lao Li, come and sing two songs!"
Lao Li is also what you can call?
Li Chengxun was displeased in his heart, and secretly glanced at the man.
When they were young, the two of them had similar grades, and it was okay to shout Lao Li, but now that they haven't been in touch for decades, you dare to call me Lao Li, the king of heaven, even if you are an outdated old bacon?
"Hehe, I'll forget it, why do you want to be ugly on stage at a great age, it's better to let my two students go. ”
Li Chengxun, who thinks what he thinks in his heart, naturally won't say it, he is still smiling on the surface, but his smile is a little fake, and there is no heat at all, which anyone with a discerning eye can feel.
And although Li Chengxun spoke with a smile, his words were also a little inappropriate, this is a gathering of our older generation, if you don't participate in it, you won't participate, what does it mean to send two young people out?
At that time, who will be able to go up and challenge these two future generations?
Some old people sighed, the king of heaven naturally has the arrogance of the king of heaven, they are already angry, but they are still in the sky.
"Seniors, then I'll be ugly. ”
A little fresh meat singer next to Li Chengxun stood up and came to the stage without being scared at all.
Everyone used to be in the entertainment industry, even if they have begun to gradually withdraw from the circle now, they are still very concerned about the current affairs of the entertainment industry, and they all know this student of Li Chengxun.
Bao Haoyu, who came back from South Korea as a trainee, became popular all over Asia as soon as he debuted, and he has a high popularity both in South Korea and in China, and is quite popular among young people.
There are more than 10 million Weibo fans, and there are tens of thousands of comments on any selfie, which is very popular.
