Chapter 253 The wind passing by Zhang Zizhong Road (please subscribe, please vote)

Among the pianos that Jia Kui used during his lifetime, three are of special significance.

The iconic red Fender, DoubleNeck double-ended acoustic guitar and Ovation - CustomLegend 12-string.

Bian Lang remembered that there was a little story about Jiaju buying this 12-string.

There are actually two types of Custom Legend, one with 6 strings and one with 12 strings.

At that time, Jia Kui liked it when he saw it at Tom Lee Music Store. Unfortunately, he was short of money and could only buy one.

He thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to buy the 6-string model first, and then buy the 12-string model later when he had more money.And before leaving, he repeatedly told the boss that if any customer took a fancy to this piano, he must tell him.

At that time, the boss advised him: "This kind of piano is rare in Xiangjiang. If you like it, buy it as soon as possible!"

Jia Kui hesitated for a while, but in the end he was reluctant to buy it, and replied to his boss: "It's expensive, please let me think about it again..." After that, he left with the 6-string Custom Legend.

As a result, not long after he walked away, the boss called him: "Come back soon! He was bought away by someone else! Isn't it better to be married? He will have to pay for it!" "

After hearing this, Jiaju ran back to Tongli Music Store anxiously, but it was too late after all. The foreigner had just paid the money and was about to take the piano and leave.

Jia Kui quickly stepped forward and took the foreigner's hand and said, "I really like this piano. You paid [-] for it. Can I buy something from you for [-]?"

The foreigner originally also loved the piano. He didn't agree at first, but he couldn't stand Jiaju's pleading. Besides, the piano earned 6000 yuan as soon as he changed hands, so he finally reluctantly agreed.

Jiaju was naturally happy after buying his beloved piano, but at the same time he was a little depressed. The piano that could be bought for 1.2 yuan ended up costing 6000 yuan more.

It is said that at that time, Jiaju and Ye Shirong were working as salesmen in an insurance company and could only earn less than 3000 yuan a month.

This 12-string Custom Legend Bakelite is one of Ovation's top series. The sound is clear, loud and rich, very listenable. It also helped Ka Kui create the 1991 concert and the classic strumming of "No More Hesitation".

The 6-string one was the one that broke the string when Ka Kui was singing "Amani"...

This story tells us that if you like something, you should act quickly, otherwise you will suffer, or your wallet will suffer.

However, at that time, there was a big boss in the circle who did not want to be named. One time he told Bian Lang a similar true story over a drink.

When the boss was still in Hun Shu Village, he went to a music store to try out a piano. He fell in love with a charvel that cost nearly RMB 3. After plugging in the speakers and trying it out, he fell in love with it.

But in the early 2000s, how could a hard-working rocker have 3 yuan, so he "accidentally" scratched the piano.

The female boss got angry at that time. After she sprayed him, she said she would give him a [-]% discount and take Qin away.

But the big boss at that time didn't have the strength to take the piano away even if he suffered a broken bone.

But the boss was also "open-minded" and said to the boss's wife: "I'll let you work in vain for half a year to make up for your losses. I don't want Qin anymore..."

Within a month, the boss also took over the boss’s wife.

This story tells us that if you want something you like, you should do whatever it takes. It’s hard to say that you can gain both wealth and wealth!

After thinking about all this, Bian Lang decided to take advantage of this opportunity to go to Europe and ask Olaf to help him customize a 12-string.

……

After explaining these things, Bian Lang and Chen Shuting embarked on a trip to BJ.

When the two of them got off the plane at around 7 o'clock in the evening, Dong Youbian's agency sent someone to pick them up, and they were directly taken to stay at a high-end B&B on Zhang Zizhong Road.

A few dozen meters away is the Live House where Dong Youbian will perform on the 11th - Jingwei Reclamation.

The private chef of the B&B makes authentic Inner Mongolia roast lamb, and only six tables are cooked every day. Everyone who has tasted it says it is delicious, so it is quite difficult to book a table.

So when Bianlang and the others put away their luggage and came out, Kou Yong, the head of the agency, was already waiting in the restaurant, but Dong Youbian was still stuck in the road and hadn't come over.

When they met, Kou Yong came up and enthusiastically took Bian Lang's hand and shook it: "Teacher Bian, it's better to see than to hear a hundred times! You are the pride of us sculpture students!"

Upon hearing this opening statement, Bian Lang felt a little embarrassed.

The original owner formed a band before graduating, and now his only connection with the sculpture circle is probably Lao Luo.

"You are looking up to me. If you really say that in the sculpture circle, then I must be one of those who is regarded as a traitor by Lao Luo..." During this gag, the atmosphere naturally relaxed.

Although Kou Yong did not switch from sculpting to rock music, he switched to a music store. Later, when he started his career and gained a lot of connections, he entered the entertainment industry in partnership with others.

To say that Dong Youbian was able to be signed by their company before, Kou Yong still played a big role in it. Before Dong Youbian participated in the Youth Song Competition, he had been buying guitars from Kou Yong's music store.

There weren't many people on Kou Yong's side. He and the female director of the company's artist department made a phone call to confirm that Dong Youbian was expected to have half an hour left. The four of them ate some snacks and chatted while drinking. got up.

Naturally, the artist director's public relations partner was Chen Shuting, and the two of them had a lively chat about resources.Thinking of the investment promotion for "Peach Blossom Spring", he intentionally or unintentionally missed the word "Tank".

Unexpectedly, the artist director directly took out the phone, and after consulting both sides, he directly helped to make an appointment for tomorrow.

After hanging up the phone, the artist director said: "Our company's artists have filmed one of their commercials before. Their Tank marketing team is quite young and they work well together. If there is no other alternative, I will I think it’s a really good partner to work with.”

<divclass="contentadv">Due to the current relationship between the two companies, Chen Shuting was quite confident in the credibility of this statement. She immediately toasted and thanked: "If the matter is settled, I will be the host later."

"Mr. Chen, you are too polite. This is just a matter of convenience. Marrying Youbian away from us is the beginning of our cooperation!"

As for what kind of cooperation, both of them knew in their hearts, but whether it would produce results still depended on whether Bian Lang nodded.

Bian Lang and Kou Yong naturally talked about musical instruments.

Kou Yong is a true connoisseur. When it comes to guitar, he is like Bian Lang to the rock scene on the original earth.

He is very familiar with the guitars of various brands and models in Shuilanxing. Just when Bian Lang mentioned the 12-string guitar, Kou Yong immediately said: "I will contact you tomorrow. You can go there then." In Europe, someone from the manufacturer will contact you."

"Then thank you, Mr. Kou. When you finish working here, you can choose me to be the host..."

The expected half hour finally turned into an hour. Dong Youbian showed up at the B&B in a dusty atmosphere. The only person accompanying her was Chen Manman.

Dong Youbian's "transfer" matter has been all settled before. Today's meal not only brings Bian Lang back, but also serves to bring the two companies closer.

Bian Lang drank a lot of wine, but he also controlled not to drink too much. His eyes were still bright until the end when he saw Kou Yong and the others off.

After sending Kou Yong and the artist director away, Chen Manman and Chen Shuting started to pretend to be drunk. One took a taxi back to the apartment, and the other went back to the room to sleep.

Dong You said that he would take Bian Lang to see the site, and the two held hands and walked towards Jingwei Reclamation.

Jingwei Reclamation is located in a group of European-style buildings from the Republic of China period. This European-style building group is also a cultural relic and was the former site of a certain warlord government.

Now to the east is the International Department of the Academy of Social Sciences, to the west is the old campus of Renmin University, and the Jingwei Reclamation is in the yard next to the street. From the outside, it looks like a barracks before the Republic of China.

Singing rock and roll here, Bian Lang feels quite cool just thinking about it.

Indeed, this is a place that cannot be avoided when BJ bands perform live. The 850-square-meter performance venue can accommodate 700 people, and there are many foreigners and foreigners. It is the first choice for many foreign bands to perform at BJ.

There is a performance inside today, but it is just a platter live. The admission fee of 150 per person includes two bottles of beer.

When Bian Lang was about to scan the code to pay at the door, he saw an acquaintance dangling out from inside.

"Li Hao, you drunkard, why don't you stay at your own bar?"

Li Hao was a little confused when Bian Lang shouted.After he saw clearly that it was Bian Lang, his already red face turned even redder: "Bian Lang, I really don't blame the brothers for not going to support you at this music festival. It is indeed Tian Yuan's family that has something to do."

Li Hao didn't mention this, and Bian Lang had completely forgotten about it. Joystick was the first to agree to the Rolling Stones Music Festival, but just before the official announcement, Li Hao called him and told him that Tian Yuan had something to do at home and couldn't go.

They were all adults, and there was nothing Bian Lang couldn't understand, so he didn't take it to heart.

"It's okay. Who doesn't have an urgent matter at home? Family members are more important than performing."

Hearing what Bian Lang said, Li Hao became anxious: "You're fine. I'm so sorry after seeing that scene. You must continue to do this. Even if the sword is struck from the sky, we have to go to the second session. . Walk around, go in and drink..."

While the two were chatting, Li Hao hugged Bian Lang, took out his mobile phone, scanned the admission fee, and took the two of them in.

Today he came to help as a temporary bassist in his friend's band, and now he has finished playing.

The band had already left, but he didn't drink enough, so he started drinking with others in the venue.

As soon as Bian Lang entered, Li Hao began to call his friends.

When the group of people rolling around saw that it was Bian Lang, they all came over to drink with Bian Lang regardless of what was being performed above.

Half an hour later, Bian Lang was helped out by Dong You.

At this time, the temperature in BJ was already a bit low at night. As soon as the cool breeze blew into his coat, Bian Lang felt a smell of mutton rising from his throat.

But maybe because of Dong You's presence, Bian Lang was stunned and didn't imitate the dragon cry.

Dong You bought him a bottle of mineral water. Bian Lang took a sip and held on to the street sign for a while before he sobered up a lot.

Seeing him like this, Dong You said with heartache: "If you can drink less in the future, drink more. I'll give you some hangover treatment when you go back to the B&B. The wind on Zhang Zizhong Road is really..."

When Bian Lang heard this, he was as stunned as a demon, and he squinted at the road sign of Zhang Zizhong Road.

About a minute later, Bian Lang pulled down the zipper of his coat, took a deep breath, and sang in a voice full of passion: "The blue sky reveals the past, and he will always be with you." The shouting is the wind passing by Zhang Zizhong Road. As dusk approaches, I am still waiting...

I also once lowered my head and fell into the deep sea...

Burying whispers across time and space, singing about drinking water from the beach for thousands of miles, the lingering sound fills the ground, walking three thousand and one hundred meters during the Sino-Japanese War...

An independent and rotten individual, stubborn and unyielding..."
