Chapter 421: What is Rock 'n' Roll
Back in the living room, Hu Yiting turned off the TV and game console, invited everyone to sit down on the sofa, and moved the chair to sit next to Tong Mu and Kong Jing.
Keyboard Du Yong drank Coke and said: "Your house is so well decorated, I want to live here in the future if I have money." ”
"I just bought it this year, and the loan hasn't been repaid yet. Tong Mu smiled.
"Don't worry, you'll have money when you sign a hundred generations. Kong Jing said with a smile: "I have already negotiated with Baidai, and they agreed to sign a contract with us in the name of the production company, because they respect Hu Yiting's lyrics and compositions very much, saying that as long as Hu Yiting continues to write songs for you, they also hope that Hu Yiting can create more, so that other artists under Baidai will also be stained." ”
"I can write, but I can only give it to children. Hu Yiting said to Kong Jing.
Kong Jing nodded: "I said the same before, this is not reluctant." ”
"How much salary do you pay them?" Hu Yiting finished speaking to Kong Jing and looked at the six people crowded on the sofa.
"Three insurances and one housing fund, eight hundred and five per month. Kong Jing said bluntly.
The young musicians of the band all nodded, and the lead singer Wang Feng smiled: "Thank you, Mr. Kong, we will be treated as a unit after graduation." ”
"Work hard, give you a salary increase every year. Kong Jing assured.
Li Jie nodded and said: "We didn't have any income before, and after helping people work for a concert and earning 5,000 yuan, we had no business, and I couldn't pay the rent, I was thinking about going to the south to work, I heard that there are a lot of entertainment venues in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and it's no problem for professional musicians to earn two or three thousand a month, but I still stayed, because I can't let go of my dreams, I think once it passes, I will never have a chance again in this life." ”
Du Yong said: "My family also urged me to go to a formal art group, but I feel that I am so young that I will regret it in the future if I give up if I don't fight."
Li Bin also said: "Du Yong is right, I have passed the interview of the Railway Art Troupe, don't you give up, my dream is to make my own music, I will not give up." ”
Wang Feng said gratefully: "Thank you, Director Kong, for signing a contract with us, we must work hard to reach the level of the film as soon as possible." We are now accumulating music material every day, and there are a few songs that we think are okay, and if Director Kong can help us find new songs written by others, we are willing to sing them. ”
Kong Jing said lightly: "Practice again, I will definitely send you an album, the craze of rock music has now subsided, Cui Jian, Black Panther, The Tang Dynasty they are not as good as a few years ago, now the most popular is pop music, the music style is complex, not sticking to a certain element, the so-called take-it-ism, what is good to do what, pure rock is still overseas market, the domestic people still recognize the pop, as long as it is easy to sing, and then a little connotation, it can become popular in China, pure spiritual abstract rock is definitely not good, this is essentially different from foreign countries, so you must position yourself as a pop band, and don't advertise yourself too much as a rock group. ”
Hearing Kong Jing's words, the young people nodded one after another, and Long Long said: "We understand this, Director Kong, you are right, we must first be able to survive, and then think about the fire, in order to realize our pursuit of music." ”
When Hu Yiting heard this, he suddenly asked: "What is your pursuit of music? It won't be flesh and bones? It won't be flying leaves, right? It won't be eating some psychedelic mushrooms and knocking on the idea medicine, right?"
The young people were a little silent, and for a few seconds they seemed to be asked, and Wang Feng had to answer on their behalf: "Our band is still clean, and I can assure you that none of the six of us have eaten or smoked anything." As for Guo'er......" He looked at Tong Mu, then at Kong Jing, and finally said to Hu Yiting with a smile: "We are not famous, how many Guo'er know us?"
Tong Mu took Hu Yiting's arm ignorantly and asked in a low voice: "What is a fruit? What do you say about flying leaves eating mushrooms and taking medicine?"
The six people at No. 4 Baojia Street are a little embarrassed at the moment, they all understand what Hu Yiting said, but they haven't tried it, but deep down they have more or less longed for it, and they feel that the rotten life of those rock bands in the West is really a fairy-like day.
Hu Yiting explained to Tong Mu very seriously on the spot: "Rock is a culture imported from the West, it is not just simple music, this circle is basically related to absorbing independence, **, Violence has an innate associated relationship, the so-called bone and flesh skin is the transliteration of the English groupie, and it is called Guoer in the domestic circle, and the most tender ones are called Jianguoer, this word is still handed down from the old society music and art circles, and there are many big girls and little daughters-in-law who are crazy about drama in those years, and they are willing to recommend pillows for those red horns who sing operas, and the reason why these girls are called Guoer or Jianguoer is that they are named mainly because they have a descriptive logic with a beautiful organ somewhere in women, and you can understand it when you hear it, and later this word generally refers to those "open" women. After the entry of Western rock culture, this word has gradually become synonymous with flesh and skin, those women who are intoxicated in rock culture, waiting in groups backstage with the members of the band **, taking nude photos, taking medicine together, crazy dedication to the band members, and even abandoning their families to follow the band to travel around the world, acting as a public tool for the team, which is the kind that has fallen the deepest in the star chasers. ”
Tong Mu listened with a frosty face, not a simple disgusted expression, obviously disgusted to the extreme, she asked Wang Feng directly and a few of them: "You don't have this problem, right?"
Long Long hurriedly said: "Not all domestic rock bands are like this. ”
Wang Feng denied it: "We don't, don't worry, Tong Mu." ”
Hu Yiting said: "Okay, okay, I don't expect you to be very high, but the medicine can't be touched, no medicine can be touched, there must be fruit or better sharp fruit in the future, whether you eat it or not, but there is one, you can't have a scandal, and you can't be involved in violence." ”
Tong Mu glared at Hu Yiting fiercely: "What kind of fruit is fruitful, it's really ugly, don't say it." ”
"Okay, you let me finish. Hu Yiting had to agree and continued: "I said ahead, the ** culture in the Western pop music circle cannot be done in China, at least the six of you must do it, at this point, you say that I am conservative or conservative, but I am such a conservative typical Chinese, if you have this kind of scandal, I will no longer have anything to do with you, I am young, Tong Mu is not a few years older than me, I must pay attention to mental health." ”
Tong Mu also said: "Really, Hu Yiting and I are not joking. After that, he frowned and said, "I want to know that rock and roll is like this, why can't I ask you to come to my house." ”
Wang Feng listened to Tong Mu's unkind words, couldn't help but turn pale, and hurriedly promised: "This will not be, the six of us are all authentic Chinese, Chinese traditional morality is still understood, our musical ideal is to integrate the classics into the modern, with rock and roll interpretation of the classics, Hu Yiting, you just listened to our works, how do you feel?"
"I think it's nice to hear, you're at a very high level. Director Kong signed you in order to create a professional-level accompaniment band for Tong Mu, which is convenient for rehearsals, and you can use your own band without accompaniment when you go out for concerts in the future, I think you are very suitable.
As for your albums, I think Director Kong has more say than me, I don't know much about rock music, but if you can make good music, even if it has no commercial value, I am willing to fund your release. ”
Du Yong blushed and said: "Really, Hu Yiting, the six of us are quite conservative, and we haven't touched the kind of things you said, probably because we haven't become famous in the rock circle, but I think you are right, so even if we become famous in the future, I don't think we will do this." ”
Hu Yiting nodded: "Director Kong also said just now, don't stick to rock, music is for the public, just listen to it, the image should be healthy, don't blindly pursue cool, and don't flaunt your rock fan, if you can do it, I can help you write a few songs." ”
Du Yong: "Really, great!"
Wang Feng had already had this idea, but he felt that he couldn't open his mouth just now, and his eyebrows jumped straight at this moment: "Thank you Hu Yiting!"
The other four people at No. 4 Baojia Street were also cheered up and expressed their gratitude to Hu Yiting.
Hu Yiting smiled, waved his hand and said, "I said okay, I don't know how to rock and roll, anyway, it's good to listen to." ”
Wang Feng said with a smile: "Yes! Good sound is the most important thing, I have already figured it out, what are the six of us doing music drawings, don't we just like to make the atmosphere of the band, you just write pop, and we also sing." ”
Li Bin said: "Me too, I like to be in a band, and I don't necessarily have to die on rock." ”
Hu Yiting laughed when he heard them say this, thinking that this is really an unknown band that has just been formed, and there really is no insistence on the so-called rock and roll, it seems that as long as they can help them become famous, they will be happy, but there is no obsession with music style.
