7 Chapter VII
Li Wen glanced at Jiao Tang, and his eyes couldn't hide his disdain, "You are too young and naïve, this road will not last long, so let's do it yourself." ”
He turned around and strode out of the small courtyard, stepped out of the gate, opened the driver's door of the SUV, and sat in arrogantly.
陈博看了看席宇,又看楼梯上的NEO,叹了一口气,说道,“很多人在地下乐队混一辈子,到死都是默默无名的地下乐队成员,无人知晓他们是谁,他们唱着没人听的歌,作着没人要的音乐,赚不到钱,食宿都是问题。 There are so many people in the circle a year, and very few can get ahead, and some people may only have one chance in their lives, and if they can't catch it, they will miss it forever. You are too young to have seen the cruel side of this world and still have pure dreams. But I'm twenty-one, Li Wen twenty, we're all about to graduate from college, and we're facing survival problems—"
Xi Yu sneered, dragging Jiao Tang's shoulders and walking in, "We are not brothers anymore, I don't be brothers with people who betray their dreams." ”
Li Wen roared outside, "Chen Bo, go!" What nonsense to talk to them? ”
Chen Bo walked out of the door with the piano on his back, Jiao Tang was dragged into the house by Xi Yu, he stood with his back to the door and looked up at the ceiling, Jiao Tang was not used to being touched, but it seemed too hypocritical to get out directly from under his hand, she suppressed her voice and said, "Brother Yu? ”
Xi Yu took a deep breath to suppress the tears in his eyes, let go of his hand, and then looked at Jiao Tang from top to bottom, "Why are you so short?" ”
Jiao Tang: "......"
It is reasonable for girls to be more than six or eight meters tall.
"I'm only sixteen, and I can still grow." Jiao Tang didn't dare to stand there for people to look at, for fear of being seen, so he cut to the topic in time, "Where am I auditioning?" ”
"Can you play a drum kit? Do you have any experience in forming a band? Xi Yu leaned against the cabinet next to the door, and felt that Jiao Tang was not the same as in the photo, he was so handsome, a delicate face was indistinguishable between male and female, short and really short, short and incompatible with their band, "What's it called?" ”
"Jiao Tang, Zuo Zongtang's Tang." Jiao Tang's name can't distinguish between men and women, she looked around, the original living room was changed into a music studio, all the furniture was moved, there were various musical instruments in the empty room, and a drum kit was placed by the window, "Try this drum?" ”
"Yes, just this drum, you can read drum scores, right?" Xi Yu temporarily pressed his disgust, pointed to the drum kit and said, "Go pick a drum score and try a section." ”
The mobile phone rang, and Xi Yu took out the mobile phone from his trouser pocket and saw Qi Li's message.
Qi Li: "Your relatives? ”
Xi Yu knew that he was asking Jiao Tang, Xi Yu was also angry, and just saw a private message nearby, so he called someone over, looking at the photo, the other party looked quite good, who knew that he was so short.
Xi Yu: "No, the drummer found on Weibo. ”
Qi Li: "? ”
Qi Li: "Don't be too outrageous, send people away." ”
Xi Yu raised his eyes and saw that Jiao Tang had already sat behind the drum kit, he couldn't wipe his face and let people go directly, and replied, "Right away." ”
Qi Li put away his mobile phone and put it in his trouser pocket expressionlessly, spit out white smoke, extinguished the remaining cigarette butts on the iron railing, and strode up the stairs, he did not stop until he reached the platform on the third floor.
The black SUV sped along the straight country road between the poplar trees, and the wind blew the endless poplar forest, and the leaves turned up to glow with sparkling silver. The rustling sound is intertwined with the chirping of cicadas.
Qi Li threw the cigarette butt into the trash, and scanned the small platform with her dark and dense eyelashes hanging down, and on the platform was a row of cans and countless barbecue skewers.
He stood on the edge of the platform with his hands in his pockets and his legs open, and raised his cold chin to look out at the mountains in the distance, stretching to the gray horizon.
The Summer Band was the second band he did, and it turned out exactly the same.
There is no utopia in this world, only conflicting interests.
Downstairs there was a drum beat, the messy drum beat was out of order, pure and raw. Qi Li frowned and retracted his gaze, took out his mobile phone and typed it heavily to Xi Yu.
Qi Li: "What are you doing?" ”
Qi Li: "It's noisy, be quiet." ”
乱音陡然一转,鼓点从低缓慢沉渐渐密集而放肆,整个扬了起来,大开大合的鼓点仿佛江河,涛涛而来。
The world was agitated, and the frenetic and flamboyant drums filled the courtyard.
Qi Li's typing hand paused, Xi Yu didn't know how to play a drum, and the level of this drum kit was not lower than Li Wen.
Xi Yu: "It's not me. ”
Xi Yu: "I'll rub it, this guy has something." ”
Xi Yu: "Brother, come down and take a look, hurry up!" ”
Xi Yu: "This guy is short and short, and he sits handsome in front of the drum for ten miles!" ”
Drums have no melody but rhythm, and the space to show his skills is limited, and he shows his skills to the extreme in this limited space.
Qi Li put away his phone and walked down the stairs with his hands in his pockets. The drums on the first floor are more shocking and clear, there is no light, and in the dark room, a thin figure sits in the middle of the drum, holding the drumstick, and the slender arms are unexpectedly tense, and every movement has a sense of strength. He had a short size, very white skin, and his eyes were drooping and his lips were pursed. I don't know if he realized that someone had entered the door, he raised his eyes, his thin chin was raised, and he had a very delicate face that was completely different from the presumptuous drumming.
The delicate one is a little familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere.
Xi Yu leaned over and said, "Isn't it awesome?" Isn't it completely different from the first time you first saw it? He's so handsome! It doesn't look very old, and the level of the drums is very high. ”
Qi Li felt ridiculous, "What's her name?" ”
"Jiao Tang, the name is very strange, but this technique is really good, and you can perform on stage after running-in." Xi Yu picked up his mobile phone to take a video, "Just him, right?"
Qi Li turned his head to look at Xi Yu.
Xi Yu's heart was furious when he was watched, "Brother Li? Isn't it possible? What to see? ”
"Okay, that's great." Qi Li had never seen such a thing, and in order to chase him from the backstage of the Yanshan Music Festival, he cut his waist-length hair into a small bald head.
"Then it's sure of him." Xi Yu was also surprised, the sky gave them a chosen drummer?
Qi Li's hand in his trouser pocket endured for a long time and still couldn't hold back, raised his hand and twitched it on the back of Xi Yu's neck, gritting his teeth, "She's a girl." ”
Xi Yu was dumbfounded, "Huh? Female? How can it be? ”
From a musical point of view, Jiao Tang's drum kit is very shocking. She seems to have been born with the drum, her drum has life and power, and the drum comes alive in her hands.
The sun shone in through the doorway and fell on her, her skin was pale, and her features were clean. She lowered her eyes and beat the drums, and her whole body was immersed in the music. She didn't use any of the drum tabs here, it was her own music, her music.
From the perspective of men and women, she is a daring fanatic.
The last drum sounded down, and the world fell silent for a moment.
Jiao Tang had a feeling of tinnitus, she hadn't touched these things for a long time, and she hadn't touched a musical instrument since her mother died.
It's useless to study music, you can't make any money, very few can get to the top, and most of them have been unknown all their lives. There is no social status, you can't survive well, and you don't have any ability to resist risks.
Jiao Tang once thought that she would never touch these musical instruments again in her life, obviously, a life is very long, and there are many accidents in life.
Jiao Tang held the drumstick and looked at the open door outside the clear blue sky, thick green in summer, and the sound of cicadas slowly poured into his ears. The wind swept into the house, blowing away the summer heat and cooling the sweat on her back.
It was only then that she could see that there was a tall and tall boy at the door, and NEO had gone downstairs and stood here without knowing why. NEO was a cut taller than Xi Yu, leaning against the cabinet with one hand in his pocket, his long straight legs slightly open. His handsome face was deep in the backlight, his messy silver hair hung down casually, and his red phoenix eyes were cold and sharp.
Jiao Tang suddenly sobered up and lowered his head. She's been confronted by NEO, and NEO won't be recognized if she's seen her with long hair, right?
"Need to try again?" Jiao Tang deliberately lowered his voice, turned the drum hammer and struck a note at random, and said, "I can play the drum score here." ”
The world was silent, no one spoke, and the two boys at the door were looking at her.
"Any questions?" Jiao Tang stood up with her drumstick in her hand, and she wondered if Neo had seen something. The Summer Band is headed by Neo, and he has the absolute right to choose.
"Need to try again." NEO SPOKE SUDDENLY.
Xi Yu next to him dragged a chair and planned to sit down, Qi Li said, "Xi Yu, you take the guitar and try it with her, just choose "Yellow". ”
Xi Yu looked at Qi Li, was forced to stand up, picked up the guitar, and stood in front of the music stand.
Jiao Tang thoughtfully, picked the drum sheet of "Yellow" and put it on the music stand, sat back and picked up the drum hammer. Cooperation is much more difficult than solo, she has only seen Xi Yu's performance once, or the band together, his guitar is pressed to death by NEO's guitar, she doesn't know Xi Yu's level and style alone.
The guitar rang first, and Xi Yu's guitar was decent, even a little soft. Jiao Tang breathed a sigh of relief, she sat back and held the drumstick, and then the drumbeat was added accurately. In an instant, the tune takes on texture and power.
Jiao Tang stepped on the pedal, waved the drumstick and struck the drum surface with ease, and every movement was chic and smooth.
In the middle, Xi Yu made a mistake, and Jiao Tang pulled him back.
Very perfect show, couldn't fault the slightest. She understands music and cooperation, not the kind of "technician" who can only memorize according to the score.
She has a high musical talent and a lot of aura.
Jiao Tang stood up and put down the drumsticks, and looked at Qi Li with clear eyes, "Is it okay?" ”
"You leave a contact information for Xi Yu, let's go back first." Qi Li held the thin mobile phone in his palm and turned it back and forth, fell back into his palm, and said casually, "I will notify you if there is a result." ”
"How long does it take to get results?" Jiao Tang asked.
Qi Li's deep dark eyes looked at Jiao Tang from top to bottom, "A week." ”
Jiao Tang was a little weak at this glance, she was afraid of being seen, so she hurriedly looked away, picked up her schoolbag, opened the zipper, took out her mobile phone, asked for Xi Yu's mobile phone number, and left politely.
Xi Yu watched Jiao Tang leave the courtyard, turned his head and asked Qi Li, "Brother Li, how can you tell that she is a girl?" How do I see how she looks like a boy. Her drums are really awesome, she is very cooperative, she understands music, I think it's very comfortable to work with her, I don't know if she can sing. If we bring her in, we'll be able to compete in the band competition at the end of the month. ”
Matching comfortably shows that her level is above Xi Yu, and she accommodates Xi Yu. If this cooperation is a solo competition, then Xi Yu will be pressed to the ground by Jiao Tang and rubbed.
"She blocked me backstage at the Yanshan Music Festival, and at that time, she had long hair. Her short hair should have been cut today, and the broken hair is still around her neck. Qi Li put his mobile phone in his trouser pocket, but decided not to take risks, people like Jiao Tang were too dangerous, "Keep looking for someone, I'm not big enough to dedicate myself to art." ”
