Since there is an invitation to Audrey. Hepburn's idea of acting, Wang Zijun was ready to act immediately - he thought that Audrey Hepburn lived in the United States.

As a result, when I inquired, I learned that after Audrey Hepburn's second marriage, she lived in seclusion in Italy, occasionally went to Switzerland to live, and rarely went to the United States.

Hell do you want to go to Europe to find her?

Wang Zijun thought about it, but decided to go, anyway, the special effects artists of Industrial Light and Magic are still repeatedly studying the special effects in the play, gathering people, plus making models and other things, it will take at least half a month. At the same time, he asked his assistant Lazim to continue the audition and prepare for both, because he was interested in being able to invite Audrey. Hepburn really didn't have any faith.

Just when Wang Zijun got his visa and was about to go to Switzerland, Ron finally couldn't stand the harassment of rock fans for days, and found Wang Zijun and said: "Wang, you'd better go to the record company once, I'm going crazy." ”

"What's going on?" Wang Zijun asked.

Ron said: "Hotel California fans want to meet you, and many people come to the company every day to ask for your news. Most of them just came and left without asking anything, but there were still some who stayed at the company. Now there are nearly 100 people gathered outside the company, and there are even two old bands. There are so many people stuck there, and now the company can't work normally, and it's hard to call the police. ”

"Okay, I see, I'll go now." Wang Zijun nodded.

……………………

Free_Well the entrance of the record label, fans in different costumes come from all over the country, but they have one thing in common - that is, avid rock lovers.

Unlike other fans, they take rock 'n' roll as a belief.

When the original version of "Hotel California" came out, it was still a few years later, the free spirit of rock and roll at that time was long dead, the American economy had improved slightly, and the shadow of war had long been gone. After the Eagles created "Hotel California", fans were more of a kind of nostalgia and nostalgia for the past.

And now, Wang Zijun has released this song a few years in advance, and at this time, there are still so many people struggling for the freedom of rock and roll. Wang Zijun's "Hotel California" came out, which happened to be an excuse for these people to gather.

These people at the door of the record company, except for a few people who came to chase stars, the rest of them had only one purpose, that is, they wanted to negotiate with the singers of "Hotel California" to plan a rock festival, a pure rock festival that was completely independent of commerce, and they tried in vain to create a new Woodstock, a musical utopia.

"Will, you said that Zachary. Will the king appear? ”。 In the crowd, a middle-aged man in his thirties asked.

"I don't know, if he doesn't come, we'll do our own rock festival." A person next to him gritted his teeth and said, "All day ** and women, I've had enough, I want my rock"

"Yes, rock 'n' roll" The middle-aged man with the guitar on his back looked blankly at the sky, how distant and foreign the word rock was to him.

Ralph. Gleason weaves his way through the crowd of fans, paying close attention to the expressions and reactions of those around him, listening to them, and occasionally asking for someone to talk to. Ralph. Gleason didn't come to chase stars or build rock festivals, he was a music critic for Rolling Stone magazine and one of the founders of Rolling Stone magazine.

The quiet advent of "Hotel California" immediately aroused the influence of Raff. Gleason was interested, and after learning that rock lovers were gathering in Los Angeles, he left his job and rushed to the city overnight.

Looking at the lively scene in front of him, Raff. Gleason became more and more curious about the singer he had never met.

A Ford sedan approached from a distance and stopped in front of the record company, and everyone looked back. I saw the car door open, and an Asian man in a suit and leather shoes appeared, waving at everyone and saying, "Hello, I'm Zachley. King. ”…,

Immediately, there was a cacophony of chatter in the crowd, and the first reaction of these fans was disappointment. It's not that I'm disappointed because Wang Zijun is a yellow race, but Wang Zijun's dress is simply a polite gentleman, or a philistine businessman, a hypocritical politician, and there is no taste of rock 'n' roll.

In their minds, the person who can create a rock comedy like "Hotel California" must be their own people who have the same experience as them, but ......

"Fack, this guy can't be an impostor, right? Quite a few words"

"I don't know, I think his dress is more suitable for singing jazz, or even sitting in the studio and playing the piano instead of singing rock 'n' roll."

"Whatever, as long as the song is good, why care what he wears?"

"yes, who says you have to dress hippie to play rock 'n' roll?"

“……”

"Wang Wang ......" Wang Zijun walked over, some of them were still talking in private, and others directly greeted him to ask for autographs and hugs.

Ron couldn't help but smile on his face, his record company is now famous, he only needs to pay some magazines to praise it, saying that Free_Well record company is the hope of rock and roll, I believe that many hot-headed rock singers will take the initiative to come to him.

Ron also had a general understanding of the intentions of these people, and the idea of holding a rock festival was exactly what he wanted, and his plan was to do it himself, which was a shortcut to the company's fame and attract musical talent.

Of course, Woodstock's pomp and circumstance will never happen again, and the 500,000 people who were able to gather in the first place are the result of a combination of factors.

After some conversations and even singing, these people finally believed that Wang Zijun was the deity.

Four middle-aged men came up to him and said, "Hello, Wang. We're the Wilhouse band, and it's great to meet you. ”

"Hello." Wang Zijun shook hands with them.

"King, I hear the reluctance and struggle in your singing, and I think we have the same goal. Interested in hosting a rock festival? To hell with those record labels, it's a musical utopia for us. The man said excitedly.

Wang Zijun asked, "Why did you find me?" ”

"Woodstock succeeded because of its slogans of anti-war and freedom. The slogan of the rock festival right now is to set rock 'n' roll free, and your Hotel California is the clarion call that can bring a lot of people together. ”

Wang Zijun smiled: "I think you overestimated me, and you also overestimated "Hotel California". To do a rock festival, where is the venue? Who pays for the publicity? Do you have start-up capital? ”。

"None of this is a problem, I'll fix it." Ron suddenly interjected, and without waiting for those people to speak, Ron continued, "Don't worry, I won't make money from it, I'm also a rock 'n' roll person. ”

Wang Zijun knew Ron's thoughts, and immediately said, "Ron is my friend, I believe him." ”

"Are you sure you're not commercializing him?" These rockers clearly didn't believe Ron.

"I swear in God's name." Ron Road.

………………………………………………

"Mr. Zachley, I'm Raff from Rolling Stone. Gleason, can we talk? ”。 When Ron was entangled with the group of rock singers, Raff. Gleason found Wang Zijun.

"Absolutely." Wang Zijun knows the name of "Rolling Stone", although this magazine can only barely be counted as a first-class music magazine.

Ralph. Gleason said, "Why don't you find a café?" ”

"Good choice." After Wang Zijun finished speaking, he and Raff. Gleason slipped out the other door quietly.

Sitting in a café not far from the record label, Raff. Gleason handed over his business card and said, "'Hotel California' is a great song, Zachary, under what circumstances did you write it?" ”…,

Wang Zijun said: "I like rock and roll, and I have some American friends who also play rock 'n' roll, so I wrote it down when I had some feelings. ”

Ralph. "Can I read it as an indictment of the current state of rock in America?" Gleason said. ”。

Wang Zijun said with a smile: "Everyone has everyone's understanding, and I respect your opinion." ”

"Okay, let's leave this at that." Ralph. Gleason said, "Zachary, are you Chinese-American?" ”

"No, I'm Chinese, from Taiwan." Wang Zijun said.

Ralph. Gleason said, "Then you must have lived in the United States for a long time. ”

Wang Zijun said: "Actually, I only came last month. ”

"Never been in the U.S. before?" Ralph. Gleason was surprised.

"Yes." Wang Zijun nodded and said.

"Oh, unbelievable." Ralph. Gleason was taken aback, "I can't believe that a man who has only been in the United States for a month can write Hotel California." ”

Wang Zijun said: "The understanding and perception of a place does not depend on time. Isn't it? ”。

"Indeed." Ralph. Gleason asked, "Zachary was also a singer in China before?" I can tell you're singing great. ”

"Yes." Wang Zijun said, "If you go to Asia, you may be able to know me." ”

Ralph. Gleason said, "Can you tell us about your previous experience?" ”。

"No," Wang Zijun said, "I don't think it matters what I've done before, it's important now." ”

Ralph. Gleason said, "So what's next for Mr. Buckley?" Is there an album record? Perhaps, this "Hotel California" is the hit song selected from the album. ”

Wang Zijun shook his head and said: "No, I won't release music albums in the United States, at least not this year, but I will continue to release singles." ”

"Really? That's a pity. "Raf. "I think you can take advantage of this opportunity to do more." ”

"Yes, I do have important things to do." Wang Zijun began to promote himself again, "Me and Bruce. Lee founded a Dragon Tiger film company in West Hollywood, and I'm about to make a movie. ”

"Movies?" Ralph. Gleason felt that his head was a little insufficient, but he came to understand how Wang Zijun himself and the song "Hotel California" were involved in the movie.

"Yes, a movie that Hollywood remembers." Wang Zijun said.

Ralph. Gleason: "......"

………………………………………………

The day after an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Wang Zijun stepped on a plane to Rome.

Audrey. Hepburn, who knows if he can be invited, Wang Zijun purely passed with the mentality of traveling and vacationing. Roman holiday, sounds pretty good.
