Chapter 92: Foreign Netizens

On Children's Day on June 1, Tiger invited friends from the Nameless Tavern to dinner. He thought about it for a long time and chose a very expensive seafood restaurant.

In addition to Fang Yan and them, Qian Ning, who had just joined the studio, was also invited. Only Lao Liu alone is arrogant and can't come. The large table in the private room sat in a circle.

Tiger treats him because he has a girlfriend. After eating and watching a movie with Liu Zheng last time, the two chatted slowly and finally confirmed their relationship.

At the dinner table, Liu Zheng was a little embarrassed in the face of a group of strangers, and grabbed Yuan Yuan and didn't let go.

"Master, you can accompany me to buy a piano!"

Yang Zhenyu has an extra 50,000 yuan in his pocket out of thin air, and has been thinking about buying a new guitar, effects and speakers for the past few days, and is frantically looking for information on the Internet.

In July, the band competition will begin, and the scrapwood band is ready to update their equipment.

"You've got that Fanta in good shape, don't change it. Fang Yan said.

"I have to change, that dead fat man Kong Lei's guitar is so expensive, I can't let him underestimate it!"

Fang Yan agreed to accompany the band to sell guitars, bass and drums, and during this time they have made significant progress and really need to improve. He himself plans to buy a few blues harmonicas.

Fang Yan thought for a while, and then asked, "Zhenyu, what song are you going to sing in the audition of "Chinese Singer"?"

"I didn't want to participate. Yang Zhenyu shook his head. He is very busy now, preparing for final exams, practicing, rehearsing with the band, and being an Internet celebrity, so he has no energy to prepare for "Chinese Singer". And he knows his weight, and there is no point in participating.

"Try it. ”

"Eh, Master, try it?"

"I'll help you through the auditions. ”

"Really?"

Yang Zhenyu's pitch and rhythm have made some slight improvements, but they are still far behind. His voice was completely unrecognizable, it was difficult to cross the audition, and Fang Yan was trying to figure out a way.

Everyone gathered in a few piles to chat, and Feng Lu's mobile phone rang. She sat in the private room and couldn't get out, so she waved her arms desperately to silence them.

Feng Lu picked up the phone, uh-huh.

The call came from her leader of the "Huaxia Singer" TV station. There was still a month before the opening of the competition, Fang Yan did not agree to sign up, and she was in a hurry.

The short film "Walking Street" won an award at the Cannes Film Festival, and the video suddenly rushed out of Asia, igniting a wildfire on the Internet in Europe and the United States.

Compared with China, young people in western developed countries generally have a higher level of music education, and netizens are also more knowledgeable. The Chinese songs in YouTube videos do not have subtitles, and wizard fans among international students have already helped to make subtitles in various languages.

"WTF, that's crazy!"

"I can't believe it! This is in Huaxia! Do people in China also know so much about music?"

"This rock 'n' roll kid is more decent than my dad!"

"It would be nice if he came to the streets of Berlin to sing, even for a day. ”

"Top street music! Top talk show!"

Netizens from all over the world have been commenting on YouTube, and the "Walking Street" video has become the hottest topic in a few days.

Foreigners think more eccentricly, they think the music is very good, but they also like the collapse performance of Yang Zhenyu singing "Blue Lotus", which foreigners think is an impromptu talk show by a young comedy master.

The major media in Europe and the United States also quickly made some small-scale reports, one-sided surprise and praise.

Many people who are prejudiced against the Chinese people, after watching the video, can only shut up.

Some European and American pop music singers also said on the Internet that they would never dare to underestimate the musical strength of Huaxia from now on. A street singer is so powerful, Huaxia is terrible.

So on June 1, Fang Yan didn't do anything, but he was in a mess on the other side of the ocean.

For a long time, as a country with extremely weak cultural strength, China has never really exported anything except for some niche arts, and in the pop music industry, the influence of singers is limited to Asia.

A "Walking Street" video made Fang Yan the first truly influential pop musician in Europe and the United States, although this influence is still relatively limited.

It was a wonderful surprise. The ideals that Huaxia record companies have been desperately unable to achieve for many years have been realized by a short film by a bad wedding company owner.

The foreign boom ignited and spread back to China, and in just a few days, Fang Yan's worth skyrocketed again.

"Oh, oh. Feng Lu held her mobile phone, couldn't stop looking at Fang Yan across the table, covered her mobile phone again, and said, "My leader wants to talk to you." ”

There was silence in the private room, Fang Yan looked at Xiao Mu, Xiao Mu nodded, and Fang Yan took the phone.

Fang Yan chatted with Ji Shanshan on the phone every week, and knew a little about these routines, the level of this female producer was far worse than Ji Shanshan, and she came up with a sensual compliment, which was handled by Fang Yan in a few words.

"I'm very interested, and Sister Feng Lu also told me. It's still early before the registration deadline, so I'll think about it again, thank you, teacher. ”

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Mu gave Fang Yan a thumbs up: "Well done, just stretch her like this, until the start of the competition!"

Feng Lu bowed her head to eat shrimp on the side.

……

Fang Yan's time was cut into pieces, studying in the morning, practicing the piano in the afternoon, going to the tavern to sing the next day, live webcasting, going to Qian Ning's grandfather's house on Tuesday, giving lessons to Kong Lei on Friday, going to Hangzhou to find Ma Shengguang every other week, and occasionally going to the suburbs to find Lu Dacheng to play.

There will always be time.

Throughout the month of June, Fang Yan buried all his free time in the mysterious score, and he wanted to understand the original author's thoughts, psychology and techniques as soon as possible and complete the score.

It turned out to be an impossible task.

He has been staying at the stage of reading scores, and the more he delves in, the more he feels that the music is deep and fleeting, and whimsical. There are many tricks, tricks, and traps.

The mysterious composer was not a desperately dark man, on the contrary, he was sensitive, cunning, very humorous and optimistic. Reading the score, Fang Yan gradually understood his inner world, and he longed for it.

Fang Yan himself has changed.

"Teacher, teacher, you have changed!" After Kong Lei was defeated again, he keenly felt abnormal. "What you play is different from what you used to play, it's weird!"

In Hangzhou, too, Fang Yan played the piano for Ma Shengguang, and the corners of the old man's mouth twitched a few times from time to time, as if he was about to have a stroke.

But the old man did not speak. After Fang Yan came to Hangzhou, he didn't give a word of guidance.

The time soon came to June 30th, Friday, the registration deadline for "Chinese Singer". Fang Yan, accompanied by Feng Lu, went to the SS office to fill out the registration form.

The audition will last from the beginning of July to the beginning of September, with 160,000 applicants and more than 25,000 applicants in the Jiangdong division.

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, the "Chinese Singer" TV station held a momentum concert in Yanjing's 100,000 people gymnasium, for 8 consecutive hours, various stars were dispatched, and the TV station broadcast the whole process live, and the ratings quickly broke the historical record of SS.

On this day, Yang Zhenyu took an elective course and barely got credits.

……

The audition for "Chinese Singer" began.
