Chapter 064: Chi Guoguo's Plagiarism
"That's what you call friends who play music, where are they?" Li Chen looked at the few people in front of him very painfully, he didn't look like a serious musician in a punk outfit, but more like a member of the group of homeless people who slept on the street in the middle of the night.
Maybe he felt that the person he brought in was indeed a bit of a cheat, and Joey smiled embarrassedly, "Don't do this! Cruz, don't look at a few of them look down, but they're actually quite talented, I found them in a small bar, and I listened to a few songs they wrote themselves, which was pretty good! ”
The camera shifted to Li Chen's side, because of his little plan with Joey, this guy actually called the league boss David Stern, saying that he hoped that the other party could help him talk to the team and give himself a little time to prepare for the upcoming All-Star Game performance.
The effect of going to the upper echelons is really extraordinary, with the help of the ultimate **OSS, Li Chen got what he wanted, the Lakers coaching staff decided after discussion to allow Li Chen to leave the team two hours earlier every day, after all, the boss can't give face, of course, it's impossible to have more time, and the team's rules can't be trampled on at will.
Although he got the coveted opportunity to be lazy, when the professionals that Joey said really appeared in front of him, Li Chen still had the urge to turn around and go back to the training hall. Just kidding, no matter how weak he is, he will not be reduced to the point where he has to rely on playing fat pigs to attract the attention of the audience, not to mention that he is now a well-deserved celebrity in the sports world, which is not to mention compromise.
"Hehe, it's all here, why don't you try it, just chat, it's more comfortable than when you go back to training!" The aggrieved eyes of his friend made Joey feel more and more guilty, and he stepped forward to light a cigarette for Li Chen very flatteringly.
Li Chen took a deep breath, and then spit out a few smoke rings that stunned several down-and-out singers. What's going on? Doesn't it mean that professional athletes are not allowed to smoke? Why is this flower in front of you more slippery than a few of them!
As if seeing through the other party's thoughts, Li Chen smiled very arrogantly, "What's so strange about this, when Joey and I were playing melancholy and cheating on little girls, you didn't know where to go!" As for the team rules, man, it's not in the team now! As long as you don't say it, I don't say it, who will know! ”
"Don't say that you will have the urge to snitch", Joey said very unkindly, it seems that the past incident that Li Chen just mentioned aroused the blood and impulse that had been silent in his heart for a long time, and he just behaved like a good young master, and now he looks more like a bad gangster who wanders the streets, but he forgot that he just said that the other party is a friend who plays music, is there such a threat to friends?
Although there were many of them, Joey, who was tall and strong and slightly harmless, was also beginning to deter because of the little fat he had recently raised, and several punk youths who looked like malnutrition decisively gave up the urge to refute each other.
"Lee, I heard you want to prepare a song for the upcoming NBA All-Star Game, I think a few of us should have something that can help you!" One of the punk youths, who looked like a boss, stood up and said that this opportunity was very precious, and they were even likely to become famous overnight, and several young people chasing their dreams were not willing to give up easily.
The other party's attitude was good, which made Li Chen have a little good impression of them, "Then try it!" Tell us about some of the styles you're good at! ”
"Rock"! Several people said in unison. The impact of the shock of rock and roll on the younger generation in the United States is self-evident, and Li Chen has also been obsessed with it for some days, although he doesn't like it too much, but it is still a good choice to indulge his mood occasionally.
However, after a audition, he completely lost confidence, and he really wanted to tell these fat pig flow boys, "You brothers are too domineering, and you can play rock and roll like country music, but it's okay not to play like this?" What about the shock to the soul? What about the good rock? ”
"How? Isn't it very distinctive, I just took a fancy to their performance style and brought them over! I'm sure we'll be stunned by then! Joey misunderstood Li Chen's expression, he thought that the other party liked this kind of feeling just like him!
Li Chen gave the eldest young master a head look, "I said Joey, are you sure you have listened to music lessons seriously!" This is country music, not rock", after reprimanding his friends, Li Chen turned his head and said to a few other people.
"You must not have received professional training, your rock and roll is too bland, you can't feel the oppression of the soul, change to play country music, I can hear it, although you have average voices, but the combination is quite good, and the unpretentious style will have an audience!"
Li Chen commented on the other party's performance like a professional, and the explanation of the head was so shocking that Joey next to him was stunned, and pinched his thigh, Joey was sure that this was not a dream, and asked in surprise, "Cruze, what's wrong?" What are you? ”
The eldest young master is a little incoherent, it seems that his friend's performance scared him, and his friend who also plays music turns out that his best friend is a professional!
Li Chen waved his hand helplessly, "When I wanted to learn this, Laura forcibly stuffed it to me, saying that I didn't do anything good all day long, so she taught me vocal music for a while, but don't say it, if I was willing to be serious at that time, maybe I would be a singer now, Laura has always praised my voice, saying that I was ruined." ”
Only then did Joey understand, no wonder, her mother was a music teacher, and Li Chen would definitely learn something under the influence of her ears. "I mean, why did we skip music class together, why did you get a grade but I got a c, you bastard! You lied to me at the time and said that it was because the old man had a crush on Laura that you gave you a high score, and I still believed it! ”
When it comes to the past, Joey is very angry, why did the two do bad things together, but in the end it was always him who was unlucky, and only now did he understand that it was not that he was too much on his back, but that his IQ was suppressed by the other party.
Hey! It is estimated that he has done too much to do wrongly, and Joey's resentful eyes made Li Chen embarrassed.
Too lazy to investigate the other party's fault, Joey asked helplessly, "How many of them can't do it, so what should we do?" You've told David Stern, how can we get it if we don't get something out? ”
"You're embarrassed to say, it's not your ghost idea", Li Chen despised Joey fiercely, "You still know professionals, I'm sorry!" ”
But thinking that since he has made a promise to the big boss, and the other party has also helped him communicate with the Lakers management, it is really a bit too much to say if he can't get something out. No way, just thinking about it, Li Chen fell into deep thought!
Sing! Li Chen felt pain when he thought of these two words, it was okay to listen to the song, but when it came to singing, he had never tried to sing in his previous life, although he had talent in this life, he couldn't find any singing experience through all the memories of Cruz, and the only time was when Laura forced him to speak.
However, although he has no singing experience, he has a lot of basic knowledge about music, and Cruz has a lot of memories of it, and combined with these things, Li Chen has been able to roughly copy some of the tunes he has heard in later generations.
Since it's Taylor Swift, then ...... Pregnant!
He seemed to remember something, and summoned a few punk youths who thought they were professionals just now, "You guys, do me a favor, if you do it well, the eldest young master next to you will give you a reward of $1,000." ”
Saying that, Li Chen pulled Joy to him, "Joy, you won't care about this little money, right?" I heard Tru say that you are doing a good job, and he will give you a promotion soon! ”
Not knowing what the other party wanted to say, Joey was a little strange, "What's the matter, what idea did you come up with again?" Although 1,000 yuan is nothing, I won't do anything without pay! ”
Li Chen smiled mysteriously, "Don't worry, the waiting reward will satisfy you!" Assign a few people a task, "I'll hum a tune later, you can accompany me, and I'll see how it goes!" The song is quite close to your singing style, and I believe you can do this task well! ”
What happened after that completely shocked Joey, an outsider, in his opinion, what happened was that Li Chen suddenly created a classic tune after a few minutes of thinking. God, is this a joke? Joey couldn't believe what was going on, and he began to wonder if it was all true.
The song Li Chen hummed was nothing else, if there were fans of the little diva here, of course, it would have to be fans two years later, they would definitely come up and give Li Chen a fat beating without hesitation, "You guys are plagiarism of Chi Guoguo, when did my Taylor's "speaknow" become yours, or do you think it's okay to change girl to boy, what about the festival?" ”
But it's not two years later, so the author of this song naturally becomes Li Chen. Several punk youths looked at the young man who was gagging with Joey with awe, and in their eyes, Li Chen was a typical example of what was hidden.
Before, they thought that the other party was just good at talking, and they didn't pay attention to Li Chen's opinions, how much music do they think a basketball player can understand? But now, the emergence of this piece has made them completely recognize the gap between themselves and the other party, and of course they will pay attention to the opinions given by Li Chen.
Li Chen and Joey won't know that it was because of the 1,500 dollars that the eldest young master rewarded with kindness gave this small band the first start-up capital, and after changing their style, they finally gained people's recognition after some hard work, although they were not popular, but later they were also a well-known band.
However, this is all a matter of later information, and the butterfly effect on one's own wings will not be known until later. Now Li Chen and Joey are still immersed in the joy of success.
"Ha, Cruz, stop playing basketball, let's change careers, what is MVP, our goal is a Grammy!" Li Chen casually hummed a tune that made Joey burst with confidence, in his opinion, his friend had the capital to break into the music world. It's just that Li Chen's attitude is even more arrogant than that of his friends.
"Oh, that's not good, I finally made it to the NBA, and I definitely won't leave if I don't have some achievements, but it must be a good feeling to win a Finals MVP and hit the Grammys at the same time." Li Chen's wild laughter made Joey suddenly wake up, he had never seen such a shameless person.
"The song just now has been recorded, you can show it to me, see how it works if you listen to it a few more times, I don't want my song to be tired of being listened to by people once."
After listening back and forth a few times, Li Chen still didn't find anything wrong, it seems that the little diva's masterpiece really deserves its name! Although there seem to be some flaws in the sound quality, it is only because the equipment is so rudimentary that it has nothing to do with the quality of the song itself.
"Joey, you say, if I pass this song to Taylor, she won't fall under my sweatpants! You have to know, my love life is too messy right now, hey! Bother! Li Chen was very shameless and boasted to himself, "However, if Taylor is really indomitable, I don't think I will refuse, after all, then I will be able to hold Taylor's private concert in the future!" ”
The eldest young master also seemed to be a little stupid, "It's really possible, after all, your first impression is too fake, and almost any woman will be deceived by you." But that's fine, at least I don't have to queue up to buy Taylor's new album anymore, I can just get it from you. ”
Under the mutual ridicule of two unscrupulous young people, the little diva seems to have become someone's personal musician in an instant. The performance of the two vividly reflects an Internet buzzword:
If the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if the people are cheap, they will be invincible!
