003 Resident Singing Life

"People don't share the joys and sorrows of people, I just think they're noisy."

After lunch, the brothers and sisters pushed their bicycles, and as everyone knows, the coldest thing in a snow day is not the snow, but the snow.

The north wind was ruthless like a knife, and Xu Chen and Xiao Huang squatted on the side of the cement road.

Xiao Huang is an old dog, with rugged bones, yellow hair, one person and one dog, four pairs of eyes, watching Qiong Yao drama.

Xiao Ou and Lao Huang Lang were in love with each other, and they looked at each other with tears in their eyes, Xiao Ou turned over the pocket of the padded jacket, large and small pieces of money, and picked out the largest ten yuan, stuffed it into Huang Bo's clothes, and said hot air in his mouth: "Abo, stay up too long at night, don't be afraid of wasting money, buy something hot, I have me at home, you can go with confidence." ”

Huang Bo took out the money and resolutely stuffed it into his daughter-in-law's pocket, a dry bark face rippled with a lewd smile, and reluctantly said, "Wife." Don't worry, I won't be hungry, and the food outside is good...... He is rich! ”

The two hugged each other affectionately, just like the Cowherd and Weaver Girl.

Groove ......

Xu Chen suddenly couldn't sit still, Huang Bo had a wife to hug, he was a little virgin, and he was lively with wool.

Athletic, kicked the old dog, pedaled the bicycle, and rushed out recklessly, in the north wind, the sound of pain came: "Xiao Huang, let's go, you brother, hey~~"

The voice pulls the elder.

The old dog's legs and feet were inconvenient, dragging his crippled body, he was in a hurry, his throat was whimpering, and his voice was miserable.

Xiao Ou sneered, carefully sorted out her boyfriend's clothes, and stretched out her hand to push: "Abo, Brother Chen is a good person, you don't care about other people, forget about it, ...... Brother Chen"

Xiao Ou stared at Xu Chen's back.

Xu Chen is poor now, but from her point of view, Xu Chen is definitely not a thing in the pool, his eyes are on his boyfriend, and his voice is heavier: "We owe it to others, you are a brother, take care of it more." It doesn't hurt us. ”

"He's ......" Huang Bo was fascinated by Xiao Ou's style, and said: "Lao Xu is not a stingy person, he doesn't care about these ......"

Looking at his wife's stern eyes, Huang Bo put away his hippie smile and said, "Okay, wife." Let's listen to you. ”

Looking obscenely left and right, there was no one, Huang Bo kissed his girlfriend's face, pedaled the bicycle, roared away, and said, "Wife, wait for me to come back." ”

…………

The central part of the city is dilapidated, and the roads are slippery.

Xu Chen rode a bicycle, staggering, the cold wind cut his face and hurt, after the garbage dump under the overpass, Xu Chen got on the city highway, the whistle of the train was heard in the distance, stop the bicycle, the purpose of the train is Beiping West Station.

Then.

Huang Bo's grandson chased after him, the bicycle stopped, his face came to Xu Chen, and Xianbao said: "Old Xu, you are still young, it doesn't matter if you don't have a girlfriend, I am at my age, oh, Xiao Ou was behind my ass at that time, don't be discouraged, no, Xiao Xu is hard working and resentful of you!" ”

"." Xu Chen held the old dog in his feet: "It's almost, go back, come back in the evening and bring you chicken legs." ”

Looking at the rampant ambition of Huang Bo's villain, Xu Chen had a toothache and couldn't envy it!

Huang Bo became famous, and he never gave up on his bad wife, and the media said that it was Xiaoou's blessing.

Bah. It is clearly Huang Bo's blessing, so he is now 23 years old and has a huge debt of hundreds of thousands, and it is now 1997, hundreds of thousands are equivalent to millions......

If it were 2022, the woman would have run away in a spaceship.

Huang Boneng made a comeback, and the confidence was given by Xiaoou, the poor and the lowly did not give up, and the rich and noble did not give up.

Boom Boom Boom Boom Tick ......

The green train roars by......

It was cold, the two of them were cold with red faces, red ears, cold hands and feet, and they were desperately pedaling on bicycles, and their bodies gradually warmed up.

Huang Bo grinned with big teeth and whistled: "Lao Xu, Bibi, see which of the two of us arrives first, please eat at night if you lose." ”

This grandson is a little bad, running from south to north, his body is strong, his predecessor died of hunger and cold three months ago, and his physical fitness can be imagined, and he got rid of weak chickens alive.

Xu Chen gasped, poor and treacherous, full of conscience, the little abacus of life at the bottom, he was clear in his heart, and shouted: "Grandson, eat grandpa's Xu style punch." ”

"Hahaha, you kid will chase me later."

On the straight road, two bicycles whizzed by, riding and riding, Huang Bo pulled his throat and sang loudly: "The light of the righteous path shines on this earth, illuminating every dark corner...... Lao Xu, the lyrics are so well written! ”

The song is loud.

Xu Chen sang along: "The backs of each of them running for the future, gradually drifting away, where is the future, who can give me the answer." ”

…………

Shichahai.

In 1997, the most fashionable and young people in Beiping went to the bar in Shichahai Houhai, where the three heroes of Moyan and the Tang Dynasty band were all bars in the early years.

It can be said that Houhai Bar has witnessed the development of Chinese rock, and in the era of grass and trees, it is a holy place of freedom, even in the millennium, Pu Shu and Wang Feng often go to the bar for activities.

It's not completely dark yet.

Along the winding shoreline of Shicha Lake, the pub is lit up neon, illuminating the dim sky, singing echoes across the lakeside, and the ancient city walls and minarets are reflected in the ice in the distance.

Quite a few young people with long hair, both men and women, carrying guitars on their backs, shuttled through the bustling crowd.

Xu Chen sweated like pulp, for more than two hours, riding more than ten kilometers, there was a smell of blood in his mouth, and he was heavy and hot.

"Lao Xu, drink some water, don't swallow it." Huang Bo unscrewed the thermos cup and sighed: "Lao Xu, why are you fighting so hard, the bus is a few dollars." ”

Xu Chen swallowed the water and said seriously: "Lao Huang, I want to eat the singer's bowl of rice, cycling can not only exercise the body, but more importantly, the lung capacity, the time is not early, let's hurry in, if it's late, there will only be soup left." ”

Huang Bo was in awe.

A lot of people think that a bar resident is all about holding a guitar and going up and singing a few songs.

Typical layman's misunderstanding.

First of all, the bar owner will assess his singing skills, and the resident singer must show his singing voice, not only to sing well, but also to enrich the song list.

At the very least, the most popular songs and Cantonese songs of the year must be proficient in at least thirty.

If the selection is successful, a singer must sing at least four songs, one is twelve songs, and four is forty-eight!

After singing on the four sides, the sky is almost bright, singing like this for a night, the current market is fifty yuan, if the image is good, a little strength, it may be sixty, not more than a hundred.

Huang Bo sang desperately for a night, maybe fifty yuan, this is still the selection, if the selection fails, you can only go to other places to try your luck, however, one step is slow, one step is slow, and you may only be able to ride a bicycle back in the end.

Xu Chen felt that the resident singer was the substitute driver in 1997, not only earning less, but also doing more.

There are a lot of bad things in the bar, there are big brothers in society who show their arms, don't drink and don't give face to their brothers, and there are half-hangers who spray you with poor singing skills, arching the platform......

Three teachings and nine streams. The fish and dragons are mixed, the current public security, let's put it this way, Shi Jingshan is now on the run A murderer named Bai Baoshan, this brother robbed the guns of six doors, and there were several lives on his back.

It's almost 6:00 a.m. now.

Xu Chen and Huang Bo hurried into the bar.

The field is very large, the decoration is fashionable, and the reception at the door is a little brother in a suit and a professional OL skirt. A waiter with bare legs and exquisite makeup on a snowy day.

Now Hong Kong is sweeping the mainland, and the past is the same as the urban TV series of Hong Kong and Taiwan in the 90s.

Huang Bo's mouth grinned, now he has an "original song", the quality is high-quality, he is full of eyebrows, he must be a hundred today, and Brother Bo won't sing any less!

Backstage at the bar, the hallways were dark, men and women with guitars huddled together, whispering, and more people closing their eyes.

The singing came.

Xu Chen listened to it, this song is Ren Xianqi's "Heart is Too Soft", which is very popular.

The circle of resident singers said that it was not big or small, and almost everyone who often ran orders knew each other, Xu Chen was sharp-eyed and found an acquaintance.

The man wears a cap, a beard, and a guitar on his back, which is very hormonal. was closing his eyes to recuperate, Xu Chen leaned over, hammered his fist on the man's chest, and said with a smile: "Lao Yang, why are you here, where is the third senior brother?" ”

Yang Kun is a steel factory worker, he has a hot temper, he was punched, his eyes were angry, and immediately, he smiled: "Lao Xu, such a coincidence, you came here tonight, it seems that this money is hot." ”

"Brother Yang, be humble."

The two were talking, and the others heard the sound and looked over, and they invited someone, and someone on the spot carried a guitar and turned around and left.

Not for a while.

The crowded crowd in the corridor walked more than half of them, and the few who remained were still carrying guitars.

Someone lowered his voice: "Who is this person, so crazy, as soon as he came in, everyone was gone." ”

"You don't even know him? Xu Chen, the ......" voice who sang "Jade Belt Bridge" was indignant: "Go, go, the cap's name is Yang Kun, who sings "It Doesn't Matter", I heard about the record, I didn't expect to come here, there was only him, we still have a chance, Xu Chen is here, tonight's time, it is estimated that it will be theirs." ”

Xu Chen touched the bridge of his nose.

"Jade Belt Bridge" is Song Dongye's "Anhe Bridge", in 1997, the folk songs only have campus ballads, short and tight and old wolves, "Anhe Bridge" is a "city ballad", scorpion baba, unique!

With this song alone, Xu Chen sang in Shichahai, Yang Kun and Sha Baoliang all came to admire, and after coming and going, several people knew each other.

Yang Kun is not famous at present, and Sha Baoliang is only a resident singer.

"Brother Yang, what's going on?" Xu Chen lowered his voice: "What's wrong with the album?" ”

A month ago, Yang Kun recorded an album "It Doesn't Matter", this song is a Chinese golden song, and Yang Kun will eat it for a lifetime.

Yang Kun was a little embarrassed and reached out to lower the cap. Vaguely said, "That...... Lao Xu, the album was returned by the record company, my song is so good, I have no eyes! ”

Yang Kun's eyes glared, probably hating the record company to death, and then, his body was like a soul, languishing, and said depressedly: "Lao Xu, you don't want to record an album, my brother advises you to be cautious, don't waste the money you save, these days, it's hard to get ahead, I'm a bloody lesson, your sister-in-law has broken up with me recently." ”

Then.

The door opened, and a woman poked her head out, glanced at the corridor, a little surprised, and pointed at Yang Kun: "That, it's your turn, come in." ”

Later.

Yang Kun's unique male duck voice came out, and he sang "It Doesn't Matter".

Xu Chen touched the bridge of his nose, whether he was popular or not, it really had nothing to do with the song, it depended on his fate!

Yang Kun's "It Doesn't Matter" is of excellent quality, but the record company has repeatedly returned, and in 2002, "It Doesn't Matter" was launched, which became an overnight hit.

Fortunately.

The corners of Xu Chen's mouth are upturned, he lacks everything, so he sings a lot.

Not for a while.

Yang Kun came out of it, his eyebrows were proud, his eyes were arrogant, and he didn't look at the other singers who were singing, only nodded to Xu Chen and went out with his guitar on his back.

Yang Kun was chosen.

At this moment, the remaining resident singers in the corridor left dejectedly.

"Xu Chen, come in." The female manager knew Xu Chen and beckoned enthusiastically: "Wait for a long time, come in and have a cup of tea, let's talk." ”

…………

in the house.

The female manager beckoned Xu Chen to sit down, asked the waiter to pour a cup of hot coffee, black silk legs crossed, crossed her fingers, and said with a smile: "Xu Chen, is there any new song recently, your "Jade Belt Bridge" is really popular, there are many record companies calling me, let me help pay attention?" ”

Xu Chen was a little unhappy, the person who came was not good, looked at the beautiful face of the female manager, smiled and said: "Sister Xiaoyu, I will sing all the time, the record company has stars, how can it be my turn, there is a new song, written by my friend Huang Bo." ”

Nonsense.

Xu Chen has a lot of songs, but he sings for a few dollars, starting from the maximization of interests, Xu Chen is distressed in "Jade Belt Bridge", and now Shichahai is not a person singing in vain!

I heard that Xu Chen didn't have a new song. The female manager couldn't hide her disappointment, the other resident singers were fifty a night, and Xu Chen was a singer, at least two hundred a night.

When he was the most popular, he had ten yuan for a song, and it was six or seven hundred a night......

In the past, the audience liked to listen to it and pinch their noses to admit it, but now it's been two months, and it's not new.

Leaning back, the smile did not decrease, but the enthusiasm decreased: "You are still young, you have a chance, so let's sing it here tonight, my sister will give it to you according to the market price, everyone else is fifty, sister will give you one hundred, I will let people go down and prepare." ”

The female manager's black silk legs stood up and gave Xu Chen a lot of face: "Your friend Huang Bo, if you want, you can stay, just according to the market price of fifty, Xu Chen, sister for your sake, give him ten more yuan,"

The last time Xu Chen came, he sang two hundred, and now he is eighty.

stood up, smiled and said, "Manager Sun, lifted, I have other things, thank Manager Sun for a cup of hot tea, see you another day." ”

Xu Chen turned to leave.

"Xu Chen......" Manager Sun's high heels have a crisp voice, and the singing is everywhere, Xu Chen doesn't do it, some people do it!

Manager Sun thought that he had given Xu Chen a lot of face, he didn't tear his face, and complained: "I heard that you are going to release a record, Yang Kun also released a record just now, his "It Doesn't Matter" was no worse than your "Jade Belt Bridge" before, I gave him only eighty, what do you want?" ”

Xu Chen shrugged and was speechless. Obviously, it is an equal relationship between employers and employees, and these people hold a shelf, thinking that they are landlords and that giving some money is a gift.

Ignore it and leave directly.

"Manager Sun, do you want to call him back?" The waiter said weakly: "Xu Chen is handsome, he sings well, many female customers like him and are willing to spend, I heard that he wants to make money and make records, maybe he can really ...... popular."

"Fire fart." Manager Sun's face was embarrassed, he took Xu Chen's coffee, poured it into the trash can, and complained: "What kind of score, isn't it just a resident singer, handsome, and there are many good singers, not one worse than him, singer, bullshit singer, Yang Kun is currently prouder than him, now it's eighty yuan, okay, clean up, start work." ”

"I don't know how to lift."

…………

in the hallway.

Huang Bo was about to go in for an interview, Xu Chen pulled him and said with a smile: "Old Huang, you are lucky to go shit, sixty in one night." ”

"Sixty?" Huang Bomeizizi, who used to be only fifty, now has Yang Kun, it would be good to earn sixty, grinning his teeth: "Lao Xu, you really have you, go back at night and ask your sister-in-law to make you something to eat, go, Yang Kun's grandson is arrogant and ruthless, let's go up and let him see and understand." ”

"I'm not going." Xu Chen shook his head.

Huang Bo's footsteps were stunned, he noticed the taste, and smiled with his signature: "There is no master here, only a place to stay here, sixty is like sending Huang Ye away, just rush your song, one hundred less, not a single spittle." ”

hugged Xu Chen: "Let's go, let's go, this land is not a treasure land, and it can't contain the heroic strength of you and my brother." ”

Xu Chen did not persuade.

Huang Bo is a person who is cheating and cheating, and loves to take advantage of small advantages, but he is very righteous.
