1341. Like falling into the abyss
Originally, because it was necessary to perform in front of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people, it had already made everyone nervous enough, but now Alan suddenly raised the requirements so high, not to mention that he was not professional in the first place, even Zhou Duoduo and Cheng Kun felt a lot of pressure and were very uncomfortable.
Alan didn't say anything to reprimand from beginning to end, but with a frowning brow, interrupting the rehearsal over and over again, and guiding over and over again, except for Nie Wei's stable performance, the rest of the people not only did not improve, but got worse and worse.
In the end, Cheng Kun's hands were even nervous, Zhou Duoduo couldn't hold the drum stick, and Shu Chang was even worse, and he played several wrong notes in one prelude.
Seeing Alan stretch out his hand again to interrupt the rehearsal, before she could speak, Nie Wei took the lead in stopping her.
"Alain, that's enough, it's just a variety show. ”
"I just want to do better, and I believe you can do better. Alan looked directly at Nie Wei and did not back down in the slightest.
"But what you're asking for is more than they can do, and you can't expect an amateur instrument enthusiast to become a master instrument in just a dozen days, your request is already a bit unreasonable. Nie Wei didn't give in, and his words were straight to the point.
In Nie Wei's opinion, Alan's requirements are simply too high, and it is completely in accordance with professional standards to demand everyone, and this standard is the top in the profession.
Not to mention Shu Chang, Zhou Duoduo and Cheng Kun, take all these domestic people who play bands and let Alan pick them, I'm afraid that more than eighty percent of them don't meet her standards.
Nie Wei understood Alain's mood of wanting to sing this song well, but he couldn't let her be so nonsense.
Under Nie Wei's strong blocking, Alan finally lowered his head and asked reluctantly, "Then what should I do?"
"I'm trying to figure it out. Nie Wei took off his guitar and handed it to the staff on the side, motioning for everyone to take a break.
If you want to say that there is no way to make a quick musical instrument, but it is for people who have no foundation, the instrument enters the door, and if you want to make great progress in just ten days, either the talent is very good, or the understanding is very good, the latter is not easy to say, it depends too much on luck, the former, Nie Wei glanced at the three of them, obviously these three are not talented.
Then we can only find a way to cooperate with each other.
Originally, the band was led by Nie Wei as the lead guitarist, Cheng Kun as the deputy guitarist, Alan as the bass player, Shu Chang as the keyboard player, and the final drummer was Zhou Duoduo.
In the rehearsal process just now, Alan was most dissatisfied with Zhou Duoduo's performance.
The drums occupy a lot of weight in this song, whether it is a rapid machine-gun-like recitation at the beginning, or an interrupted and repeated lyrics at the end, the rhythm of the drums needs to bring out the power of the home song, and if the drum is weakened, the lead singer's singing voice will also be weakened.
In fact, Zhou Duoduo is still very good at playing drums, at least from an amateur point of view, he can be regarded as the top, in the words of the industry, he has squeezed half of his body into the threshold of his career.
But as a girl, strength is her weakness, and she can control the rhythm, but the strong drum beat she has more than enough heart and not enough strength.
The best way now, in addition to substitution, is for Nie Wei to change Zhou Duoduo.
Because among the five people present, except for Zhou Duoduo, only Alan and Nie Wei can play the drums, Alan is the home field, but the professional band basically will not let the drummer be the lead singer.
Because the drums are too thick, it is easy to cover the voice of the lead singer, and this is really an instrument that requires strength, and singing is actually a very laborious thing, and I want to take care of both, I can't say that no one can do it, but at least there are very few, and Alain can't do both.
Therefore, the burden of the drummer can only fall on Nie Wei.
Thinking of this, Nie Wei gathered everyone together and announced the matter.
"I'll be the drummer, Kun'er, you will be the main guitarist, Duoduo you will be the deputy guitarist, the rest is the same, everyone is familiar with the instrument, and we will rehearse again and try it later." After Nie Wei finished arranging a few words, he asked everyone to go back and familiarize themselves with the instrument.
As soon as Nie Wei walked to the drum kit, Cheng Kun walked over, and said to Nie Wei with a somewhat embarrassed face: "I'm afraid I won't be able to do it, the master guitarist." ”
Cheng Kun can actually play the guitar okay, but after rehearsing for half a day, he knows very well how big the gap is between him and a professional like Nie Wei, and now that he is suddenly the main guitarist, he feels that he may not even be able to do half of Nie Wei's strength.
"Don't worry, although there are a lot of guitars in this song, as long as you play it accurately, the middle part of showing off your skills is omitted, and you can practice this song well. Nie Wei comforted Cheng Kun for a few words, and then asked him to go to the side to practice.
Cheng Kun didn't walk for two minutes, Zhou Duoduo shrugged his head and also found Nie Wei.
"Brother, why don't I quit. As soon as he walked up to Nie Wei, Zhou Duoduo said with a sad face.
She originally came to form a band with Nie Wei for fun, but she didn't expect Alan to ask so highly, which made Zhou Duoduo feel very stressed, if she put it before her debut, I am afraid that tears will fall.
"It's okay, you know what happened to Alain, she just wants to sing this song for that little girl, and wants to speak for her, so that more people can feel it from the bottom of their hearts, so it's more demanding, you don't have too much pressure, your guitar is also good, and besides, isn't there Cheng Kun to give you a cover?"
"What, you're a professional musician, are you still afraid of losing to Cheng Kun?"
Although he knew that Nie Wei was using the agitation method, Zhou Duoduo was still willing to be fooled, not to compare himself with Cheng Kun, but thinking of having Cheng Kun as his difficult brother, Zhou Duoduo's mood suddenly relaxed a lot.
Nie Wei thought that Shu Chang would come to him next, but Nie Wei didn't wait for Shu Chang, but waited for Alan.
"Teacher, am I going too far?" Alan lowered her head, a little guilty, but as soon as she finished saying this, she raised her head again and said firmly: "But I won't lower my standards, this song must be sung well." ”
"Originally, I didn't think it was too much, but when you say that, I really think it's a bit too much. Nie Wei made a pertinent evaluation, which made Alan very embarrassed.
"Okay, I'm kidding you. Nie Wei smiled and slapped Alan on the shoulder, and said: "It's a good thing to keep improving, but sometimes you push too much, but you will go too far, making everyone nervous, and it will only make the scene worse and worse, don't you feel it in the next few rehearsals?"
"So you have to do everything in moderation, and you have to understand where your teammates' limits are, like you can't expect to use an amateur player like an NBA superstar, right?"
"I just think they might be better off if they try harder. Alain muttered a little aggrieved.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll take care of my teammates, and you'll just be in charge of singing. "Nie's only sentence 'deprived' Alan of the right to guide, because if it continues like this, I'm afraid everyone will have to turn against Alan.
I didn't see the last few rehearsals just now, Zhou Duoduo didn't look at Alan with a good gaze.
You must know that this girl and Alan are quite close on weekdays, after all, every time Alan returns to China, he does not forget to bring gifts to Zhou Duoduo, but this friendship obviously can't stand the repeated 'unreasonable' toss, which makes Zhou Duoduo complain in her heart.
As for Shu Chang and Cheng Kun, they can't see it on the surface, after all, they are both adults, and they have seen too many storms, but if they have no idea in their hearts, it is obviously impossible, but they just didn't show it.
Even Nie Wei felt that the atmosphere just now was very small, and it was precisely because of this that he took the initiative to interrupt Alain's words when Alan interrupted the rehearsal again at the end.
"Okay. Alan nodded obediently, she was anxious during the rehearsal just now, and she couldn't suppress her emotions, but after resting this time, she already regretted it a little.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have come to Nie Wei, although she didn't forget to be hard-mouthed, but in fact, she was already softening towards Nie Wei in her actions.
Although Zhou Duoduo and Nie Wei changed their instruments, the score is still the same score, and after being familiar with it a few times, everyone can start this arrangement again, this time after Nie Wei served as the drummer, the effect of the rehearsal was not to mention an immediate change, but in Alain's ears, it was too much more than before.
Nie Wei's drums were strong and powerful, and there were a lot of people who vented their anger, and Alan's singing became more and more felt with Nie Wei's drums.
The rehearsal is not a half-day thing, and for the next week, they have to come to the rehearsal every day, which can be regarded as a benefit given to the team by Nie Wei as the boss, as for the other teams, there is no such good thing, so they can only wait for which professional bands to line up for rehearsals with.
Of course, Nie Wei and others did not notify the program team of the rehearsal, it was completely private, and as for whether the other groups would go to other places to rehearse in private, Nie Wei didn't care, and he was not curious to inquire.
At this moment, in the cherry blossom country across the sea from China, the fate of some people began to change.
Takahashi's living conditions have been excellent since she was a child, but in recent days, she finally felt the earth-shaking changes in her family, and the hard slap from her father that day also made her understand that everything she is experiencing now is because of her own fault.
She couldn't go to the school anymore, and the school, which had already stopped the matter, suddenly held Takahashi accountable, not only gave her a decision to persuade her to leave, but even reported the matter to the police station in the nearby community.
Takahashi had already been summoned by the police once, and she couldn't remember the scene at that time, but she clearly remembered that she was trembling when she faced the police, and she couldn't speak clearly.
Her good life is gone, and her father's slap not only knocked away her dignity, but also cut off her pocket money.
Originally, her bedroom was twenty square meters, but now the bedroom is only one square meter, in addition to a single bed, she can put a bedside table, her desk, her computer desk, and those dolls can't fit.
Her home has also changed from a two-story villa to a low-rent apartment, from the original living environment of more than 200 square meters to less than 40 square meters now.
There was no air conditioning, not even an electric fan, and in the sweltering heat of the thirties, she either opened the window to feed the mosquitoes, or sweated and lost sleep all night.
The bathtub is gone, there is only one shower head in the bathroom, and the water is not smooth, my father in order to save money, even boil a little hot water every day, if she washes for a long time, my father will be irritable and slam the door outside the bathroom, scared Takahashi cried several times.
The quality of the food has also dropped a lot, and I can't even watch TV freely, and after watching the news every day, Takahashi's father will turn off the TV, and my mother will also 'quit' the TV series that she had been chasing for a long time.
I didn't have a bright fluorescent lamp, in exchange for a small table lamp, and my father didn't let her play it too brightly.
Most of his beautiful clothes were sold by his parents, as well as her game console, her toys and some collections, and in just a few days, she went from a little princess to Cinderella.
The material change is nothing, what really destroys Takahashi's soul is the constant quarrels between his parents every day and night, his mother's tears, and his father's cold eyes, so that Takahashi has changed from the unstoppable queen of Baoxian Academy in just a few days to an autistic girl who can only walk with her head down, as if she wants to isolate herself from the world.
One day, Takahashi was walking on the road when he suddenly spotted a familiar figure, also with his head down, hiding from a crowded place.
Takahashi tried to shout, Suzuki.
The familiar figure paused, and just when Takahashi happily wanted to step forward to say hello, Suzuki, who had his back to Takahashi, didn't turn around, but ran away quickly as if his ass was on fire.
Watching the figure of his former best friend disappear around the corner of the street, Takahashi, who took half a step, couldn't bear it anymore and broke down on the street and cried.
Sakurai didn't know what happened to Takahashi recently, she only knew that the children who bullied Nishinomiya at the beginning either transferred or dropped out one by one, even if they stayed in school, they were no longer in the climate, and they were supervised by the school, and they had a big demerit, and as long as they made another mistake, they would be expelled.
You must know that in Sakura Country, being expelled from a school is a very serious thing, it will be recorded in the student file, and it will become a stain for a lifetime, and it is not easy to even want to change schools, after all, this kind of seemingly unstable fans, which school accepts it, have to worry about whether it will affect the atmosphere of the entire school.
What happened to Amamiya Ren, the protagonist of "Persona 5", is the most obvious example.
With the last bad boy in the school that Sakurai knew about being reported a demerit, she came to Nishinomiya's house again, and she was going to tell Nishinomiya's mother the good news.
At the same time, she was secretly grateful to Nie Wei in her heart, because she knew very well that Nie Wei had done all this.
Because these unlucky bad boys are all on the list that Sakurai provided to Nie Wei, there are not many of them, and there are no fewer of them.
After Sakurai got out of school, she soon came to Nishinomiya's house, but when she entered the door, she found that in addition to Nishinomiya's mother, there were two strangers in suits in Nishinomiya's house, and her serious look made Sakurai's steps subconsciously shrink back.
