Chapter 4: The First Time in Life

Early the next morning, the two old boys loaded a large pile of equipment into the trunk and drove to the city's famous scenic spot, Kuanzhai Alley.

As a perennial attraction with a large number of well-dressed tourists who don't go to work, this place is one of the best places to sell songs, and the streets are bustling early in the morning and soon become crowded.

It took a lot of effort for the two to occupy a small space of less than one square meter under a big tree, put the speakers and mobile power supply, and set up the fill light aperture and music score shelf.

Although the surrounding tourists did not all stare at him, Jiang Kan still felt that his face was already red and hot at this time.

The heartbeat is also increasing, and the heart rate is about 130.

This made him, who never liked to show his head, feel extremely tormented, but fortunately, his old buddy has been constantly cheering him on by his side, otherwise he might really run away with the speaker on his shoulder.

"Ahem......"

He took the microphone and tried the tone.

"Don't be so nervous, it's the first time like this, just get used to it!"

Yu Kai patted him on the shoulder beside him.

"Well, I know ......"

Jiang Kan swallowed a mouthful of saliva vigorously, saying so on his lips, but seeing that so many tourists in front of him turned their heads to look at him, he only felt that his pressure had increased several times.

"What about the accompaniment, accompaniment?"

"Here."

He handed a small finger-sized USB flash drive to Yu Kai, who plugged it into the speaker that had been powered on, and then took out his mobile phone and opened a smart speaker APP.

This is last night, the system connected to his computer to help him copy the musical accompaniment of "People Like Me" on a USB drive.

"Are you ready?"

"Ready...... All right. ”

After swallowing a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, Jiang Kan finally stabilized his mind and nodded at him.

Then Yu Kai pressed the play button.

A melodious prelude that meanders like a stream flows out of the speakers and merges into the bustling crowd in front of the small stall, causing light, ephemeral ripples.

"Hey, someone is singing, I haven't heard it in a long time!"

"The first time I came here, was it a regular record booth?"

"This little brother...... Huh? Looks very old, thirty years old, right? ”

……

A group of tourists who happened to walk by them were chattering curiously, and a small number of interested people stopped directly to see how the singer's voice was and whether it would bring a surprise to their trip.

Seeing the eyes of at least dozens of people coming over, Jiang Kan's face was as red as a ripe peach.

He had never faced so many people alone at once in his life, and he was so nervous that he kept twisting the seam of his outer thighs with his other hand that didn't hold a microphone.

Then, at this moment, a warm palm placed on his shoulder and patted him encouragingly.

He turned his head and saw a pair of familiar eyes full of encouragement.

At this time, the accompaniment had just finished the prelude, Jiang Kan smiled slightly with relief in his heart, and opened his mouth:

"Someone as good as me

should have lived a brilliant life

How did more than twenty years come to an end

is still floating in the sea of people

Once he sang out, Jiang Kan suddenly felt a wonderful state.

The crowd in front of him became blurred in a trance, and their voices became small and faint, and all he could hear was the accompaniment from the speakers and his own singing.

No one can interfere with his singing, as if he has entered a state of "settled".

"I helped you the first time, and the host will have to work his own in the future!"

Well, it turned out that this was the help provided by the system, Jiang Kan was slightly stunned at first, but then relieved, newcomers, it is normal to help the horse and walk.

"Eh, although he is an uncle, his voice is so clean and clear!"

A girl with a ponytail closest to him pulled her best friend and couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, although I look like I'm thirty or forty years old, my voice is very young, and I don't feel like a middle-aged man at all......"

Her best friend also stopped licking the cone in her hand, and looked at Jiang Kan who was singing affectionately with her eyes shining.

"Hey, this uncle has a good voice, he sings very steadily, and his words are clear and accurate...... And, whose song is this? ”

A handsome young man with a fashionable hairstyle and a girl in his hand stopped his steps and turned his head to listen carefully.

"The lyrics of this song are very good, there is a faint sadness, but also a sense of maturity that has seen the world......"

A tourist, who was also middle-aged, put down his mobile phone that was taking pictures of the street scene, turned to face Jiang Kan, and said something in his mouth.

Originally, he was still very curious and raised his brows because of appreciation, but after listening to the lyrics of half of the song, he also frowned slightly, and his serious expression seemed to tell his empathy for this song......

With the help of the system's "isolation", Jiang Kan soon finished singing the first song of his singing career easily and naturally.

When the "diaphragm" of the system faded, the noisy voices filled Jiang Kan's ears again.

But this time, it was full of applause and cheers.

Almost all the passers-by who stopped to listen to his singing couldn't help but applaud, and most of them had smiles of appreciation and encouragement on their faces.

There were also a handful of people who were serious-looking, but applauded loudly.

Without exception, these people are all middle-aged men who are about the same age as Jiang Kan, or older than him.

"Thank you, thank you!"

Seeing the support and encouragement of so many people to him, his eyes were red, and he smiled shyly with a restrained and modest ecology that was completely different from the generous and natural singing style just now, and bowed slightly to everyone who gave him encouragement to express his gratitude.

"Uncle, what's the name of your song?"

The girl who dragged her best friend to stop and listen to the singing just now shouted loudly, and grabbed the ears of the surrounding crowd.

"Huh...... The song is called "Someone Like Me" ......"

Before he finished speaking, the microphone was snatched by Yu Kai next to him.

"This song is called "People Like Me", and it is an original song composed and sung by this 'uncle' himself! We have uploaded it to the Flying Star Music Network, everyone who is interested can go and try it out! ”

Yu Kai has been an extrovert since he was a child, and he has never known what "embarrassing" is, in today's words, he has a little bit of social, but he has just come in handy on this occasion.

"Okay, we'll go up and listen to it in a moment!"

The little girl saw that this uncle, who sang well and looked very handsome, really responded to her words, and happily waved her mobile phone and shouted back.

The tourists next to them also nodded their heads, indicating that they remembered the name of the song.

There are also some people who have already taken pictures of Jiang Kan's performance with their mobile phones, and plan to rewatch it again after they go back.

"Dude, it's not enjoyable, let's do it again?"

The middle-aged man who was immersed in the lyrics and empathized with after listening to half of it just now also took the mobile phone in his hand and recorded a portrait of Jiang Kan.

He only felt like he was tingling with electricity.

Not only is the song well-written, but the lyrics are sung into his heart.

Originally, he was angry with the leader in the company yesterday, and his wife and children gave him endless torture when he went home.

I didn't expect to hear such a great song here.

So he shouted, and his appeal was echoed by everyone, who all shouted:

"Sing it again!"
