Chapter 135: MIDI, Here We Come
After the successful end of the performance at the Gun Flower Bar, Liu Jingxin and others accepted the congratulations of the old and new friends, and politely sent the friends away one by one.
Although the Gun Flower Bar is open until the early hours of the morning, it has become a lot deserted as the people who came to support Friday leave.
A few old customers watched the beautiful girls leave the bar around Orewa, a little disappointed, but finally able to relax.
It was Friday that was playing today, but these regular customers were even more nervous.
Although today's feeling is very different from usual, there is no metal salute held high by the audience, there is no large group of people shaking their heads together, there is more market atmosphere, and there is more life atmosphere, but occasionally feel this atmosphere, in fact, it is quite comfortable.
Liu Jingxin and the others went to find Brother You again to express their gratitude, and then packed up their equipment and left the bar together, and went to the barbecue restaurant they used to go to celebrate.
The six of them talked and laughed all the way, and no one noticed that in the shadows behind them, several figures followed them secretly.
Everyone arrived at the barbecue restaurant, ordered a lot of skewers and two more cases of beer, and then celebrated the successful completion of the first half of the first step.
Zhen Youcai said that he had already contacted the organizer of the MIDI music festival and quoted the price of the performance fee, waiting for the results of the other party's review.
After all, the purpose is not to make money, Zhen Youcai's vision is very long-term, so the price he quoted is not high, and it can even be said that it is far below the market price, but he made a request, that is, the Friday band must perform on the main stage.
As one of the largest music festivals in China, the MIDI music festival has more than one stage, the minimum is four stages, and the maximum even reaches eleven stages, named after different historical dynasties.
Normally, the Tang Stage or the Song Stage will be arranged as the main stage.
The Sengoku stage is dominated by heavy metal, and sometimes the finals of the "Metal War" national band competition are arranged to be held on the Sengoku stage.
The children's fan stage is mainly for children, not only so that children can also feel the joy of the music festival, but also allow tourists with children to have a place to rest, after all, the music festival lasts for two days and one night, and it is really hard to take children to visit for another day.
As for the other stages, they all have their own characteristics, but compared to the main stage, there will definitely be a single type of music, and the degree of attention will be poor.
Zhen Youcai has now put up the requirements, and the next thing is to wait for the approval results from the festival organizers.
Of course, we must be mentally prepared for the worst and work hard for the best.
Zhen Youcai said that if the conditions were not negotiated this time, or even for some reason why they failed to participate in the MIDI music festival, don't be discouraged, he can also contact the later Strawberry, Zhangbei, Lufang, Guazhou and other music festivals.
Of course, it would be best to be able to enter the MIDI music festival, after all, this is currently the largest music festival in the country.
Anyway, Zhen Youcai is very confident in Friday's future and very patient with the development of the whole band. He firmly believes that he has enough resources to really bring the band Friday into the public eye and make their voices heard by more people.
Everyone drank until the second half of the night, and everyone except Liu Jingxin drank a lot of wine.
After drinking, everyone was a little unsatisfied, and they didn't want to go back to rest, so they went to the rehearsal room to play musical instruments.
Because they all drank a lot of wine, it was definitely impossible to rehearse normally, and they all played improvisation, without considering musicality, or even whether it sounded good or not, just play it presumptuously, and just care about their own pleasure.
In the alley across from the rehearsal room, a few people who had been following Friday were yawning, all depressed.
I'm really convinced, why are these guys so energetic on Friday?
Except for Zhen Youcai who sneaked away halfway, Liu Jingxin and they kept playing musical instruments until they fell asleep on the floor, and when they woke up with back pain, they were already about to eat lunch.
Everyone packed up their things, left the rehearsal room, found a small restaurant outside to eat something, and then drove back to their respective residences to rest.
For the next period of time, Liu Jingxin and they continued to live a monotonous and repetitive life every day, except for rehearsals, there was only live broadcast, and in addition, there was waiting.
On this day, Liu Jingxin was rehearsing, Zhen Youcai suddenly excitedly pushed open the door of the rehearsal room and rushed in, his face was irrepressible joy, he held his mobile phone high, as if he wanted to say something.
Liu Jingxin and the others hurriedly stopped, leaving the entire rehearsal room silent.
Zhen Youcai laughed and said, "MIDI has passed over there, the main stage!"
Liu Jingxin and the five looked at each other and waved their fists in unison excitedly.
“Yes!”
The MIDI festival is scheduled to be held during the National Day Golden Week, and the publicity and advance tickets are opened in advance, although the Friday band does not have a separate promotional page because of its lack of fame, but it is enough to see the band's name appear on the promotional poster of the MIDI music festival, which is enough for all of them to feel excited and excited.
Looking at the names of the stars on the promotional posters, thinking that they were about to perform on the same stage with those stars, Liu Jingxin and they all felt as if they were dreaming.
Many times, persistence does not necessarily lead to results, but not persistence is true that there will be no results.
They have persevered until now, and they have finally come to this point, which is undoubtedly lucky.
In the final analysis, Liu Jingxin only wants to say one sentence: MIDI Music Festival, we are here!
At the same time, Chen Kangyin and Du Xiaoyun were in the box of a café, looking at the MIDI music festival poster on the table with serious expressions, in which Friday's name only occupied a small area, but it was very eye-catching in their eyes.
"What are you going to do next?" Du Xiaoyun asked worriedly: "Do things in a measured manner, don't go too far." ”
Chen Kangyin took a puff of cigarette, squinted and sneered: "You don't have to worry about me, you just watch, the higher they jump now, the more painful they will definitely fall when the time comes." Now that I know where Liu Jingxin and Zhang Xun live, I won't let them go to the festival. Think about it, if you dare to put MIDI pigeons, will you not have to mix in the circle in the future?"
"You're not going to kidnap them, are you?" Du Xiaoyun exclaimed.
Chen Kangyin smiled faintly and said, "Of course not, don't worry, I have my own arrangements!"
