Chapter 0027 The Gap Between Ideals and Reality
Considering that the vast majority of people who go to the mall to shop during this time period should be some aunts and uncles, and they cannot be included in the potential paid listening customer group, in the end, the two still went to the Jiangcheng Yanjiang Road Pedestrian Street.
Yanjiang Road is a relatively famous tourist shopping area in Jiangcheng, especially the whole pedestrian street is full of ready-to-wear stores, and the snack street across the street is full of people almost every day.
Xue Min, who was still excited when she got out of the car, shrank timidly when she was about to perform in earnest, and let her cousin find a place to open the piano case, and she still hid to the side and didn't dare to approach.
Yi Yang sat down in front of a flower bed, put the case on the ground, took out the accordion, and then opened it in front of him, and then began to play the piano on his back.
Xue Min hid aside, he saw it, but he didn't say anything.
Not everyone has a heart as big as him, who can calmly face the inexplicable gaze of passers-by on both sides, and play music as if no one cares about himself.
The accordion can be played both solo and accompaniment, allowing you to play beautiful melodies in a single voice, as well as in multi-part pieces, and with both hands playing a rich harmonic sound like a piano. With a large sound and rich timbre variation, it is possible to play a variety of different styles of music, so it can be said that an accordion is a small band.
Whether in his past life or in this life, Yi Yang's personality is actually a little withdrawn, except for a few friends, he is a general friend with others. This kind of personality made him fall in love with the accordion at first sight, and he could entertain himself and play music without cooperating.
At this time, it does not seem monotonous to play on the pedestrian street, "Katyusha", "Hawthorn Tree", "Evening on the outskirts of Moscow...... A glimpse of Soviet classics slowly trickles out with the beat of his fingers.
When he was tired, he sat down to rest, and when he was thirsty, he had his own cup, and Yi Yang didn't shout or sing, just played the music quietly.
The distance between the ideal and the reality is like heaven and hell.
At the end of the morning, Xue Min feasted his ears, but there was not a dime in the piano box in front of Yi Yang.
Many pedestrians and tourists did stop to listen to Yi Yang's playing, but none of them stepped forward to take out the money.
"You can't play the accordion like that, and you don't have that refreshing repertoire, it's all old songs and old tunes, and it doesn't move people's hearts." At lunchtime, Xue Min began to educate his cousin, "Why don't we perform in the afternoon, and my sister will take you out for a walk?" ”
Yi Yang shook his head, although he took it for granted that he wanted to engage in street performances, but he really didn't expect that the start would be so difficult, and it was really difficult for everyone to take out the real money in their purse.
But if you give up, it will certainly not be possible.
Yi Yang, who did not see the Yellow River and did not give up, stubbornly insisted on continuing to perform in the afternoon, and listened to the advice of his cousin Xue Min, and came up with a few good songs that have not yet been circulated in China, such as "With You", which has long been famous abroad.
The results were still dismal.
Although there were finally tourists who paid for the piano and threw it into the case, there were only a few of them. Before dinner, Yi Yang's final harvest at the end of the day was thirty-eight yuan and five cents.
Sitting in the restaurant and waiting for Chen Qian to come over, Yi Yang's mood was complicated.
At the beginning, because I was unwilling to live a plain and mediocre life, I would enter the main god space by mistake, but I didn't expect that after experiencing the polishing of the main god space mission world, even if I had nearly twenty years of foresight, I still didn't get rid of the nature of the dick.
As a fifth-order boss who dominates the main god space, even if his strength is no longer there, his state of mind is there.
Ordinary life can only be my active choice, and it must not be a passive helpless acceptance!
Really standing on the street and shouting like those beggars? No, never! Yi Yang warned himself in his heart that I could choose to work on the street to earn money, but I would never be forced to speak and beg because of the preferences of passers-by.
Is this ridiculous self-esteem? Yes and not all. Because of active and passive, it seems that they are both street performers on the surface, but they are different in nature, and passive change will shake the bottom limit of Yi Yang's ability to be a strong person.
Xue Min didn't understand what was going on with his cousin.
I stopped him from going to the buster, he had to go!
But after I went, I didn't know which tendon was wrong, so I didn't open my mouth to sing, so I stood there stupidly and played the piano for a day, neither saying a few words about the scene, nor calling on everyone to reward, what is this!
However, at this time, seeing that the expression on his face was uncertain, and he was afraid of hitting him, Xue Min couldn't help but say nothing.
After a while, Chen Qian came over.
Xue Min pulled her to whisper, told her about today's events, and told her not to mention today's events again.
Chen Qian nodded, looked at Yi Yang, and said solemnly: "Why don't you go to the bar with me at night!" ”
Yi Yang was stunned for a moment, and then remembered his cousin's words in the morning, and didn't want to embarrass her, so he said, "No, thank you, Sister Qian, I will do something else tomorrow." ”
"Standing on the street and singing is a difficult psychological threshold for talented people to cross, and I know it involves self-esteem, but there is no such problem with performing in a bar! Since you've got the courage to stand on the street and play music, why not try singing in a bar! "When Chen Qian is not crazy, it is normal, it can't be normal anymore, Yi Yang looked at her and didn't know how to describe this kind of contrasting sense.
"Okay, trouble Sister Qian, I'll try." Yi Yang nodded, and it was difficult to resist people's hospitality.
Chen Qian is going to work in a bar, Yi Yang is going to apply for a job, and Xue Min naturally has to follow. The three of them had something to do at night, and they didn't have the heart to really eat a big meal, so they hurriedly filled their stomachs and went to the bar where Chen Qian worked.
It's close.
Just near Yanjiang Road, turn two intersections to arrive.
"Time is like a song"
Her bold performance in the early hours of this morning, Yi Yang originally thought that she was working in a very noisy, trendy and hilarious bar, but she didn't expect to work in a Qing bar.
As the name suggests, the bar is dominated by soft music, relatively quiet, and there are no discos or hot dancing girls. The guests mainly come here to chat, communicate feelings, drink and chat.
"Xiaomin, you sit here for a while, I'll treat you to a drink later, and I'll take Yi Yang to meet the store manager first." After entering the store, Chen Qian arranged for Xue Min first, and then took Yi Yang to find the store manager.
Yi Yang followed her to look at the decoration of the whole bar, the lighting is very soft, the environment is relatively warm, there are a lot of black and white photos and old objects on the wall, it seems to be a store that focuses on nostalgic and warm style.
Chen Qian took him to the outside of a small single room on the second floor of the store, Yi Yang was waiting outside, and she went in first to ask for instructions.
After a while, Chen Qian came out with a smile and called him, "Come in, Brother Liu will let you go in and try it first, and if you can, you will go on stage." ”
Yi Yang nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, thank you, Sister Qian." ”
