Chapter 625: Persistence and Love

Huang Guanwen is Wu Jiarong's classmate, when Wu Jiarong was in college, he played tickets in the band, Huang Guanwen was the first member of the band, and he was also the lead singer.

Although the identities of the two are very different, Huang Guanwen is just from an ordinary family, but he and Wu Jiarong have similar interests, so the two still often interact after graduating from college.

Among the members of the campus band back then, Huang Guanwen was the only one who persevered and continued his music path, and after he graduated, he formed a flying rock band, and brought them all with him today.

There are also two rock singers who are friends of Huang Guanwen.

These people all expressed their admiration for Luo Kai, and there was even a hint of "face saint" in their tones and expressions, and they admired Luo Kai's triumphal band and his rock works.

In the exchange, these Xiangjiang rock singers also revealed their loss and confusion about the current situation of Xiangjiang rock music.

Rock music in the mainland had a glory in the eighties and nineties, and although it has long since declined, there are at least many musicians who adhere to the rock dream, guarding this music position and have not been forgotten by fans.

There is a big reason why the triumphant band, which focuses on rock and roll, can become popular in this regard.

But the situation in Xiangjiang is completely different, rock music basically does not have much place in the Xiangjiang pop music scene, there has not been a famous rock singer, and there are very few people who sing, do rock, and listen to rock.

Someone once said that Xiangjiang is a rock desert, and such a metaphor is fine.

In addition, rock singers have a very bad image in the eyes of Xiangjiang citizens, they think that those who play rock and roll are either gangsters or the second generation of rich people, and they are not doing their jobs properly, and they sing rock and roll like ghosts crying wolves, which is simply noise pollution.

From the past history of Hong Kong rock music, there is a reason for such prejudice.

So Huang Guanwen's Feiyang Band belongs to the non-mainstream of the non-mainstream, and the members are not professional singers, and even Huang Guanwen himself works in a record company, relying on his small salary to support his dreams.

As for the two rock singers he brought, they sang in the bar, and it was the kind of music bar where there were more foreigners, and they made a living by covering some well-known foreign rock works.

In such an environment, it is undoubtedly true love that can persevere, but the more true love is, the more confused they are, because they can't see any way out and future, and they don't know whether their persistence is valuable.

It is precisely because of this that they adore Luo Kai, who brought rock music back into the mainstream.

"Brother Kai, I'll toast you!"

Huang Guanwen picked up a glass full of draft beer and said to Luo Kai very seriously: "Seriously, I'm about to give up, it's your work that makes me feel confident again, I'm really happy to see my idol today!"

Luo Kai clinked glasses with him and smiled: "It's serious, idols don't dare to be an idol, thank you for liking my songs." ”

"A real idol!"

Huang Guanwen drank a full glass of beer, took a long breath and said: "I like your song "No Land and Self-Respect" the most, it is written too well and sung too well!"

His hand holding the empty cup was trembling slightly: "The first time I heard this song, I was thinking, it turns out that rock and roll is not dead, she has always been there, still there!"

Luo Kai nodded silently.

He could feel Huang Guanwen's mood at this moment, and he could also understand the latter's hesitation and excitement.

Maybe in terms of music, Huang Guanwen doesn't have much talent, he writes his own songs, arranges his own music, runs bars and even performs on the street with his band, not wanting to rely on rock to earn fame and fortune, purely out of love and persistence for rock and roll.

It's like planting green trees and flowers in the desert, which is ridiculous in the eyes of others, but worthy of admiration!

Slowly drinking the wine in the glass, Luo Kai said, "It's always going to be..."

Maybe it's because the atmosphere is too heavy, the bassist of the Feiyang Band said with a smile: "That's for sure, Brother Guanwen likes "No Place to Be Ashamed", I like "In the Spring", they are all really good songs." ”

He also said with some embarrassment: "We have covered these two songs, but we can't sing them well." ”

It's as embarrassing as if I've embarrassed Luo Kai.

And the keyboard player sitting next to him said, "Brother Kai, can you give me some pointers?"

"That's right!"

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they looked at Luo Kai in unison, and their eyes were very hot.

It's such an opportunity!

Luo Kai smiled: "It's okay." ”

Huang Guanwen immediately stood up excitedly, waved his hand and said, "Daqiang, Qingzai, let's go!"

Unlike other bars, the music atmosphere here is strong, and the customers are mostly insiders, so it is normal for everyone to drink and play on stage, such as guitars, basses, electronic organs, drum kits, and even backing bands.

Feiyang itself is a band, including five members of Huang Guanwen on stage together, of course, he accompanied himself.

It's not the first time they've sung on stage here, either.

After his companions were in place, Huang Guanwen stood in front of the microphone with the guitar, coughed twice and said: "I am very happy tonight, and I am also very honored to meet Mr. Luo Kai from the mainland.

"Good!"

Wu Jiarong and Wu Jiamei, brother and sister, applauded for fear that the world would not be chaotic, and Wu Jiamei also blew a rogue whistle very skillfully, which attracted Luo Kai's sideways.

She stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, and hurriedly poured wine for Luo Kai: "Teacher, drink more." ”

Luo Kai smiled dumbly.

It's just that the cheers of the two did not drive the atmosphere in the bar, and not many people applauded, and many of the guests present looked curiously in this direction and whispered to each other.

Luo Kai's name is obviously not unfamiliar to them.

Luo Kai didn't care about these strange glances, and gave a thumbs up to Huang Guanwen who was standing on the stage.

Huang Guanwen nodded a little excitedly and plucked the guitar strings vigorously.

"I still remember many years ago in the spring, when I didn't have long hair, no credit card and no her, no 24-hour hot water at home. ”

"But I was so happy at the beginning, even though I only had a broken acoustic guitar..."

This song "In the Spring" is now one of Luo Kai's most famous masterpieces, and it has been covered countless times, especially by those wandering singers and street singers.

The difficulty of singing this song is actually not very great, but without the corresponding life experience, it is difficult to sing its true essence and emotion.

And Huang Guanwen is undoubtedly a person with a story.
