Chapter 232: "Master" Lao Huang
"Really? That's great! Hearing that Liu Yufan agreed to the endorsement, Manager Zhao seemed very happy and hurriedly shook hands with Liu Yufan.
A few people chatted a few more words, and when they learned that Liu Yufan was going to school at the High School Affiliated to the Central Conservatory of Music in a few days, Manager Zhao complimented him again. In the circle of music, especially those who play keyboard, there is almost no one who has not heard of the name of the piano department of the Central Conservatory of Music, and in China, this name means the highest level of piano. Liu Yufan's ability to be admitted to the High School shows his own strength.
"Yu Fan, since you are in such a hurry to enter Beijing, I don't think it's too late, I'll hold a propaganda activity in Jianghai City in the past two days, you should prepare a few tunes, by the way, just now you played the song he was a pirate in the piano shop, and today's canon, but he must play the track." Manager Zhao said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll definitely come over, but Manager Zhao, you have to pay attention, the notice of the attached middle school may come down in the next two days." Liu Yufan then said. This kind of endorsement is different from the formal contract endorsement, which is a verbal agreement between the two parties, just when talking about this issue, Manager Zhao promised to give Liu Yufan an appearance fee of 10,000 yuan per event, which is already a high price for a little-known pianist like him. Of course, Liu Yufan didn't say that he fell in love with these two money, mainly because the plight of the domestic piano that Manager Zhao said before touched him, and in his heart, he also had the intention of helping them.
After the two sides discussed the publicity, Liu Yufan followed Lao Huang back to Huacai Piano Shop.
Along the way, chatting with Lao Huang, Liu Yufan found out that Lao Huang is also a very legendary guy.
Lao Huang's real name is Huang Hua, and he is a talented student of the Music Department of Beijing Normal University, and he is still Jiang Ya's senior brother. It's just that after graduation, he became a North Drifter, and in those years in the capital, he sang under the overpass, played the guitar in the bar, and even went to the construction site to carry cement for people in the most difficult times. It's a pity that after a few years of survival, I still didn't find my place in this city, and finally had to go back to my hometown.
Listening to Lao Huang, he has worked with several big people in the current Chinese music scene, such as Na Ying, Sun Nan, Han Hong, etc., and often sings together when they are in the bar. But now that those people are getting ahead, he hangs him there because he didn't find his place, or because he didn't have the insight of the record company.
Listening to Lao Huang's experience, Liu Yufan was both surprised and embarrassed, although the names he just said have now emerged in the music scene, Liu Yufan knows that they are far from reaching the level of popularity, and in a few years, they will really become the "big names" who will tremble when they stomp their feet in the Chinese music scene. Listening to Lao Huang's description, Liu Yufan couldn't help but yearn for it, and wanted to meet those stars too.
Lao Huang plays the guitar well, in school, he was born in classical guitar, and later changed to play folk songs, and his basic skills are very good. In the piano shop, Lao Huang improvised a song for Liu Yufan that he adapted Chen Huixian's "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que", which made Liu Yufan fascinated.
Lao Huang's singing is not very good, which may be the reason why he has not been able to get ahead in Beijing, but Lao Huang's guitar is really not covered. A "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" completely subverted Liu Yufan's previous understanding of the guitar. In his mind, the guitar is an instrument that is used entirely for accompaniment, and basically there are not many opportunities to appear as a solo instrument. He also used to listen to a few classical guitar singles, but he was not too impressed. But Lao Huang's guitar is really amazing. He doesn't sing well, but he can use a guitar to express both the vocal part and the accompaniment part. Of course, this is nothing, and for a guitar master, this kind of solo piece will do the job. But Lao Huang plays very "feeling", in Liu Yufan's ears, his feeling for the guitar is somewhat similar to his own feeling for the piano and flute, and he has basically touched the most original things inside. A guitar, passing through his hands, plays a tune that is even more flavorful than the original sung by the brand, this kind of kung fu is not something that can be honed overnight. …,
"Lao Huang, I formed an orchestra and is short of a guitarist, if you are interested, you can come and take a look." Liu Yufan formally invited Huang Hua. In his opinion, it is really a bit condescending for such a talent to guard such a small piano shop here.
"Guitarist?" Listening to Liu Yufan's words, Lao Huang hesitated.
As if knowing what Lao Huang was thinking, Liu Yufan said with a smile: "Lao Huang, our orchestra is not as you imagined, and it is not just to be a guitarist when you ask you to go. My idea was to make pop folk music, but after watching your guitar just now, I suddenly felt that your form of fingerstyle is also very good, and it can be promoted as a separate form of performance, I wonder if you are interested? ”
Listening to Liu Yufan's words, Lao Huang was a little moved. He has always felt that the guitar should not be just a simple accompaniment instrument, people who learn classical guitar have always wanted to find an opportunity to promote guitar solos, but they have always been unable to find a direction.
"Xiaofan, your orchestra alone?" Lao Huang asked with some suspicion. For this young man, he really can't see through it.
"Hehe, yes, it's in Fu'an, you can go and see it if you have time, but there are not many people now, including me, there are three people, and one is studying in other places, but it is estimated that he will graduate soon. Our keyboardist there is called Wang Baocheng, who is also an old drifter from the north, and the two of you can communicate when you have time, and there must be a common language. Liu Yufan said with a smile.
"Oh, okay, I'll go when I'm free." Lao Huang readily agreed.
"That's okay, Lao Huang, I'll leave first if it's okay." Liu Yufan said, waving his hand at him.
"By the way, how do you go, I'll help you get a taxi." Lao Huang said enthusiastically.
"Hehe, no, someone will pick me up, and I'll be there in a while." Liu Yufan said with a smile.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a milky white BMW mini to stop at the door of the piano shop. When the car door opened, Lao Huang's eyes widened when he saw the beautiful woman who came out of the car.
Taking off her sunglasses, Jiang Ya waved at Liu Yufan and motioned for him to get into the car.
"Lao Huang, let's go!" Liu Yufan smiled and waved at Lao Huang, and then walked towards the BMW.
"Well, hey, wait a minute, Yufan, who is this." Seeing such an amazing beauty, Lao Huang couldn't help but inquire.
"Oh, my sister." Liu Yufan looked at Lao Huang's dejected appearance, and secretly laughed in his heart.
"How? How does it feel to help others? While starting the car, Jiang Ya said with a chuckle.
"Hey, don't mention it, sister, I won't help anyone do this next time, I'm angry." Liu Yufan sat on the co-pilot and said depressedly.
"What's the matter, I didn't pick someone well." Jiang Ya asked with a smile.
"What, sister, why are those piano shops so shameless now, taking some miscellaneous pianos as high-end pianos, and not letting people say it. Today, a relative in the family was taken by the teacher to buy a piano, and the teacher insisted on recommending a miscellaneous piano of more than 20,000 yuan to him, I started to play it, and the piano was broken, several grades worse than Xinghai, and it was completely a fighter in the cottage. I couldn't look past it, so I reminded it, but the woman was not happy, saying that I didn't know the piano or anything. Liu Yufan said angrily.
"As a result, you showed your might, showed your hand, and shocked them all?" Jiang Ya still asked with a relaxed expression. Knowing Yu Fan's details, she naturally guessed the outcome of the matter a long time ago.
"Hehe, I can't see what I did, that woman is nothing, she's a liar, if any child learns from her, it's unlucky. But sister, you said that I did this, is it a little too offended? Liu Yufan asked with some concern. ..., "You, where are you offending people, you have offended everyone to death." You compared her to nothing in front of so many people, who else will learn the piano from her in the future? But don't worry, such a person should be treated well, don't you know, she recommends miscellaneous pianos with rebates, and a piano is worth thousands. Jiang Ya said as she drove the car.
"Huh? No, there's still such a thing. Liu Yufan asked in surprise.
"Why not, when I was in college before, my piano teachers told us about this, saying that we must be careful of the teachers in those outside institutions, they are not from a formal background, not to mention that they don't play the piano well, and often take the opportunity to recommend musical instruments to students to eat rebates, especially the piano, a large instrument, which has a lot of cats." Jiang Ya said.
"Hey, those piano children and parents are really unlucky, they spent so much money, and they still can't learn the real thing." Listening to Jiang Ya's words, Liu Yufan suddenly felt a little sympathetic to those people.
"Okay, let's not talk about that, when are you going to alto?" Jiang Ya asked casually.
"Wait for the school to notice, I guess it's only two days." Liu Yufan said.
"Well, when you get over there, it's no better than at home, you have to learn to take care of yourself, and call home if you need anything." Jiang Ya admonished uneasily.
"Well, I know, hehe, sister, why do I think you look like my mother." Liu Yufan said with a smile.
"Giggles, I don't have a son as big as you." Jiang Ya chuckled, that charming demeanor made Liu Yufan's heart flutter, if it weren't for Jiang Ya driving, he couldn't wait to immediately hold Jiang Ya in his arms at this moment, and show pity.
"Alright, I'm home, my coachman's task is complete, let's go!" At the door of Yu Fan's house, Jiang Ya stopped the car, looked at Yu Fan and chuckled.
Seeing that there was no one around, Liu Yufan pounced and quickly kissed her delicate red lips.
"Hey, you little bastard is going to die, and you're not afraid of others seeing!" Jiang Ya was taken aback by Liu Yufan, and when she reacted, she scolded angrily.
"Hehe, sister, I'll go first!" Liu Yufan got out of the car, the sound was still in the car, but the person had already run into the yard.
"This little enemy!" Jiang Ya's face was red, but there was a circle of sweetness in her heart.
