Morning.

The night breeze was blowing, revealing coolness.

The garbage pile next to the rental house emits a foul smell.

Deng Rong vomited next to the garbage heap, he drank a lot of alcohol today, completely ignoring the fact that the stomach perforation had just recovered......

However, this time I drank wine, not to make a living, to sing and drink in a bar, nor because I was bored, and I used the strength of alcohol to relieve my sorrows.

On the contrary, he is particularly happy today.

In just two days, he boarded the concert of 2,000 people, not only on the concert of 2,000 people, but also officially signed an entertainment company!

From then on, he was no longer a helpless wandering singer, and from then on, he had his own entertainment company, and he no longer had to drink glasses and look at people's faces.

After vomiting, my stomach hurt hotly, but there was no bleeding.

He looked at the garbage heap!

"I'm fucking, from now on, I'm going to get out of your garbage heap!"

He scolded!

After his scolding, the neighbors turned on their lights, and a basin of water was poured on his face, scolding him for being insane.

He touched his wet clothes, shook his head disappreciatively, and simply stripped himself of his clothes, threw them in the trash, and walked towards his rental room.

He lay on the bed and slept for a long time.

He slept until the next morning.

He looked at the garbage and wine bottles, napkins, and lunch boxes in the rental room, and the sloppy room seemed to be like a second garbage heap.

He had been lying in such a small, dimly heaped garbage heap for so many years, sometimes even feeling like a walking corpse.

"From now on, never drink again!"

"Quit drinking!"

He looked at it for a moment, then said it, and then he began to pick up the broom uncharacteristically and clean the room seriously.

"Deng Rong, someone reported that your room was very smelly, Deng Rong, I didn't say you, if you don't pay attention to hygiene like this, then I ......"

When he went out with the garbage, he saw the landlord coming menacingly.

"I'm sorry, landlord!"

As if for the first time, the landlord saw him apologize with an embarrassed smile, and then the landlord subconsciously looked into the room and then turned to look at his hand.

He carried bags of garbage in his hands, and after apologizing, he lowered his head and threw the garbage into the trash.

His unusualness made the landlord's voice that he wanted to scold instantly swallowed, and after a while, his landlord watched him return to the rental house and continued to clean seriously.

"You're moving out?"

"Probably moving away."

All morning, Deng Rong was busy.

The landlord watched him clean up his messy room and his unkempt hair.

His eyes seemed to have a light, and this light made the landlord a little stunned.

"You're going back to your hometown?"

The landlord was also a middle-aged man in his forties, and when he saw Deng Rong sorting out his luggage, the landlord looked at him.

The landlord's mind suddenly came to mind the scene when he first came to Yanjing more than ten years ago.

At that time, Deng Rong was in high spirits, carrying a guitar on his back, and told him that he would break through in Yanjing and in the Chinese rock music scene.

Over the years, he did not give up, insisted on singing on the flyover every day, and had heard that he had run an entertainment company and written some songs, but in the end, perhaps because of his limited talent or something, he finally did not become famous, and later, the young man became a middle-aged man with a big belly, and the light in his eyes began to fade away, and began to become cloudy, and many neighbors next to him began to complain that he was not hygienic, and the room kept smelling......

However, one thing is good, he has never defaulted on rent, as long as he has money, he will pay it immediately!

"Nope! I'm signed to an entertainment company! ”

Under the sun.

The landlord looked at Deng Rong with a sudden smile, carrying a guitar and looking at him seriously.

"Success?"

"I don't know if it was successful, but I finally have an explanation......

After Deng Rong said this, he walked down the steps and walked down step by step.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly turned his head and glanced at the rental house again, as if he was momentarily nostalgic, and then resolutely turned around.

At this time, several reporters suddenly appeared in the distance, and several reporters caught up with him under the stunned of the landlord and even Deng Rong himself.

………………………………

"Perhaps, this is an ordinary person in the big era!"

"How can it be so simple for ordinary people to chase their dreams?"

"I don't understand, I'm in my forties, why hold on? Rock 'n' roll, what a distant term! ”

"Yes, although I was very moved by this article, it was very uncomfortable, and I didn't succeed after more than ten years of perseverance, shouldn't I give up?"

"Stop the loss in time!"

"Ah K, it's really a small number of people......"

“……”

At noon the next day after the end of the Little People Concert.

The post "Middle-aged Man of Rock" was reprinted by [Nangong Nan], and it suddenly became popular after reprinting.

Accompanied by the inspirational melody of "Run", every word written in the article "Rock and Roll Middle-Aged" is full of lamentation and embarrassment......

Deng Rong, a middle-aged man who spent more than ten years chasing his dreams in the big era, but achieved nothing, was finally known by many netizens.

Many people, in this "Middle-aged Man of Rock", saw their own stories......

There is admiration, admiration for a person who can hold on for so long, to the point of madness.

There are also negatives, denying that a person insists on knowing that he cannot succeed, which is not singable, but stupid!

The controversy is getting louder and louder, revolving around "Dreams", and "Running" revolving around another article, "The Story of Ah K......

Some people can feel comfort in "The Story of Ah K", and some people feel inspired in this story, of course, some people feel that Ah K's success really carries a lot of accidents, and more people are like Deng Rong, completely in failure, and finally sank, or even went crazy.

But!

Only a small group of people know that when the story of Deng Rong's depression is heard and seen, then ......

He's not far from success!

This era!

I'm not afraid of your reputation, I'm not afraid of you being hacked, and I'm not afraid of Weibo being full of scolding......

Obscurity is the scariest thing.

in the office.

Xu Shengnan looked at "Penniless", and when the popularity of this old song began to rise, she narrowed her eyes.

It was then that she heard the sound of the office door being pushed open.

Then, Zhang Mo walked in, with a menacing look on his face.

"Sister Shengnan, why don't you give "Ecstasy" resources, why?"

"It's pointless to give "Ecstasy" promotional resources again, its exposure is enough, but, Mozi, I hope you can understand that good marketing has to be matched with better works......"

"Sister Shengnan, I want to know why, why do we have a good team, good resources, and I don't sing badly, but why do we lose, why can't we compare to other people's "Run"?"

Mozi exhaled deeply, but the excitement could not be suppressed.

Since his debut, he has been operated step by step, and then succeeded step by step!

But this time, he actually suffered Waterloo!

This makes him, who has always been successful, really unacceptable.

"Who would have thought that Ah K could write phenomenal works? Perhaps, the songs created by our team can only be pop music, but not phenomenal works in pop music...... It's not a shame to lose to phenomenal works, "In the Rain" and "Midsummer" have already shown that Ah K is a great creator, and a real genius can't be suppressed......"

Xu Shengnan looked out the window, watched silently for a long time, and finally shook his head.

…………………………

Taiwan Island.

Inside the villa.

"Old Cui...... Have you read the latest news? ”

"What's the news?"

"News of a concert."

"[Magic City Century Superstar Concert]?"

"No, it's [Little People Concert], this concert has made your "Penniless" a little popular again!"

"Oh?"

“……”

Cui Yonghao hung up his friend's phone.

After hanging up the phone, he opened Weibo and silently watched a series of news on Weibo.

There is a lot of news about [Magic Century Superstar Concert], but unexpectedly, there is no topic in this music event, and the popularity is very high, but it is not the first.

The first is [Little People Concert], and at the same time, there is also a post called "Rock and Roll Middle-aged Man" that rushed to the top ten of the hot search......

He followed the link, clicked on a website called [J&T Video], and saw the concert.

It was a group of young people, full of excitement and the desire for their dreams, desperately chasing after them......

The atmosphere at the scene was very explosive, which reminded him of the concert held by their group of old rock people on Taiwan Island many years ago......

He also heard Deng Rong sing his song "Penniless" when he appeared on the stage, and his emotions suddenly felt a little.

In the eyes of professionals, Deng Rong doesn't sing very well, but the emotions in his voice are very similar to his former self.

He then watched [Deng Rong's Story].

After reading it......

He stared at the ceiling for a moment.

Then, with his head down, he walked to the study step by step, looked at the music room next to him, and saw the guitar and piano.

Fifteen years ago!

He had an operation on his throat, and then, his throat was broken.

After it broke, he never took the stage again.

For a singer, a bad voice is almost fatal!

Then he fell silent.

Then, he also watched the rock music of China after a short period of glory, and began to fall into a death-like silence, he knew that it was the inevitability of the times, but, as the leader of that era, who could accept this kind of decline?

He sat in the study, and then, opened the drawer.

In the drawer, there are full of songs......

He took out one of them, a song called "Kill That Rock 'n' Roll Middle-Man......

After a few moments......

He pulled out his phone.

"Help me contact the company behind Deng Rong, I want to meet with them!"
