Chapter 643: Beach Music Festival
This is an invitation to a three-day concert in Santa Monica Beach, Los Angeles, for visitors from all over the world.
Although it is not a music festival with a long history and a huge influence around the world, it is also a very famous music festival in recent years, attracting tens of thousands of people every year.
Because of the cooperation with IUTN, Lin Qirong unexpectedly received an invitation to sing two songs at this music festival.
It can be said that this was a complete accident, and it also interrupted Lin Qirong's trip.
"An irresistible temptation. Lin Qirong waved the invitation in his hand, and said with a smile with Tang Fangfang and the others, "I think you should also want to participate." ”
Tang Fangfang and the others were excited, "It's a pity not to participate in such a good opportunity." ”
"Then let's participate. Lin Qirong said, "From now on, we need to prepare two songs, my plan is to sing Chinese songs and English songs." ”
Tang Fang nodded, "This is a good choice, what song you decide to sing, we will practice desperately." ”
"Of course, we want to surprise tens of thousands of foreigners in front of them. Lin Qirong thumped his chest, "representing the band of Huaxia." ”
Tang Yifang and others responded with the same action, which is a common gesture for people who play rock and roll, and it is also a ritual of mutual recognition.
"Castle in the Sky" is still in theaters, the results continue to break through, the reputation and box office are very good, if it is not for the release of a big production in the future to suppress its momentum, I believe it is likely to continue.
But even so, in a month of screening, it also won nearly 400 million box office, which is converted into Huaxia coins, nearly 2 billion box office.
And affected by this, this film has also received a lot of attention in other countries around the world, and it has also gained a lot.
Tonghua animation and the name of Lin Qirong are slowly spreading around the world.
It's a very good start.
Lin Qirong fulfilled his promise and let the staff who had worked hard for several months take a few days off before being taken back to China by Xiao Yunfang.
After a short break, they will take on a new challenge.
Before leaving, Xiao Yunfang and Lin Qirong talked about their feelings during this time.
"Movies in the United States seem to be going downhill, except for a few big productions every year, there don't seem to be more good movies coming out, and the audience in the United States feels very deeply about this.
Having been appetized by so many excellent movies in the past, they have very high requirements for movies, and they need novel themes, surprise plots and special things to attract them to cheer.
In this case, "Kung Fu Panda" is indeed a very good choice, originally Chinese kung fu and panda are both label symbols, representing a lot of things in China, and the Chinese movie stars who used to come to Hollywood to break through are basically making kung fu movies, which has become a deep-rooted impression of our Chinese audiences.
The combination of these two factors, coupled with humorous lines and a fairly good plot, basically lays the foundation that this movie will achieve good results here. ”
"You are very thoughtful. Lin Qirong nodded, "If you want to completely open the North Rice market, you must either surpass them in terms of plot and special effects, which is very difficult, or there is content that makes them shine, this is a shortcut."
We chose the second way, but it doesn't mean that we have to give up the first way, we have to invest the greatest strength in this movie, create the best works, the group's resources are as you can adjust, and the funds don't have to worry, my requirement is to make a first-class animated film, and those classic animated films in the United States have a fight work. ”
"I know, I'll try. ”
Xiao Yunfang said to him, waved goodbye to him, boarded the plane and flew back to China.
Lin Qirong, Tang Yifang and others stayed behind to continue to prepare for the Santa Monica Beach Music Festival.
Then it finally came time for the festival.
By the time Lin and others arrived at the festival's venue, Santa Monica Beach's five-kilometre coastline was already overcrowded.
There are many music fans from the United States, as well as tourists and music fans from all over the world.
In the center of the day, a huge stage stands out from the crowd, and this is where the beach concerts are held.
In the distance, there are various makeshift eateries selling beer and other food and beverages to music fans who come here.
The consumption generated by so many people coming together is staggering, and the organizing committee must have thought of this as an important source of income.
The festival lasts for three days, starting after 4 p.m. and ending at 2 a.m. every day.
"Our show was scheduled for the evening of the first day, which was a good order. Lin Qirong and the others laughed, "After a while, you can walk around, but there is one thing, don't make any trouble, it will be troublesome if it affects our performance." ”
Tang Fang looked at a few young people who were a little eager to try, and shook his head helplessly, "I will watch them, and I won't allow them to do some bad things, so don't worry." ”
Lin Qirong patted him on the shoulder, "They are all adults, they should be responsible for themselves, if something happens, then it's very simple, don't mix in the band in the future." ”
Lin Qirong's understatement made several people frightened, and the thoughts in their minds were swept away.
Now the band they are in has a lot of performance opportunities because they joined Tonghua Entertainment and followed Lin Qirong, and they are all stages with a very high degree of attention, and they already have the title of the No. 1 band in China, if they are kicked out of the band because of some things, it will be a big loss.
Tang Yifang saw the change in their expressions, and secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, how he didn't know what these people thought, and he admired Lin Qirong even more for calming them down with a word.
Maybe that's what superstars are.
When reporting, Lin Qirong was bumped into head-on by a person in the passage, but fortunately, he was very alert, and he stumbled and stabilized his body.
The other party was a tall black man, and at this time he also realized that he had hit someone, and took out the earbuds in his ears, showing a hint of embarrassment.
"Hey man, it didn't hurt you, did it? I'm sorry I'm too absorbed in listening to music. ”
Lin Qirong shook his head, "It's okay, I think it must be this music that is too good, right? I understand this very well, because I often do this." ”
"Yes, exactly. The black man nodded again and again, and a pair of big hands slapped Lin Qirong's shoulder, "The music is the best, especially RAP, man, do you like rap? ”
He obviously has the attribute of self-familiarity, and he started his own performance on the spot.
Or maybe every black man has a talent for rapping, and the rap that comes out of his mouth has a unique charm.
Lin Qirong smiled and watched him finish the performance before applauding, "Very good RAP, you must be a very good rapper." ”
"Of course. The black man proudly said, "My name is Bertlem and I'm a rapper, what about you?"
Lin Qirong stretched out his hand and smiled, "My name is Lin Qirong, you can call me Lin, from Huaxia, I am also a singer, a rock singer." ”
"Oh, rockers, I love rock. Bertelem laughed, and a big face leaned in front of Lin Qirong to squeeze his eyes, "I guess you must be a very good rock singer, otherwise you wouldn't have been invited to perform as a guest at the festival." ”
"Aren't you too?" Lin Qirong asked rhetorically.
"Of course. Bertelem laughed, "I've got a bit of a liking for you, man." ”
Lin Qirong shook his head, "I don't like you, man, I only like women." ”
"Devils like men. "I also like women, especially those with hot bodies." ”
"Is Camilli like that?" Lin Qirong said with a smile, this is a celebrity in the United States, known for her hot figure.
Bertlem put his arms around his neck and said, "Yes, yes, that's it, let me tell you, I know a lot of beautiful girls, I have time to take you to meet them? Lin from Huaxia, I believe you will attract the attention of many beautiful girls." ”
"Then I'm looking forward to it. Lin Qirong smiled and pointed ahead, "Man, I have to report now." ”
"Okay. Bertelem let go of him, "Hurry up and sign up, look forward to your performance." ”
"Me too. Lin Qirong exchanged communication methods with him, and after saying goodbye to him, he went to the newspaper office to report.
Then it's time to wait for the concert to start.
A few of the band's youngsters went their separate ways, and there was so much fun to do that they could all find something they loved.
However, with Lin Qirong's warning and Tang's reminder, I believe they know what they can and can't do.
Lin Qirong also walked around slowly, saw many famous attractions, and also saw the 1908 protruding beach line of the jetty pier, this pier can be said to be the symbol of Santa Monica, many movies and TV series have been filmed here.
It is a wonderful feeling to sit on the benches at the pier and enjoy the intoxicating blue sea and flocks of seagulls.
Tourists from all over the world are the most beautiful scenery on this beach, especially those beauties who are sunbathing, which has attracted the attention of countless people, which is also a highlight on the beach, if it is basically impossible to see in China.
But after four o'clock in the afternoon, all of this was covered by one thing: music.
The Santa Monica Beach Music Festival has officially begun.
