Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Lin Jiafeng's status in the island country's rock music is similar to that of the three great rock musicians of the original Earth.

In addition, rock music has never declined in the Blue Water Star Island Country, so his popularity among the people of the island country is incomparable to that of his peers in China, such as the Commander.

Although he was not able to be a guest performer at Panama as scheduled, Lin Jiafeng was quite willing to help promote the event at this critical juncture.

Besides, he was quite interested in the Rolling Stones.

Just this seemingly casual voice of his made those Japanese rock fans who had no idea about the Rolling Stones before start to study the information about them online.

After listening to the Rolling Stones' songs, especially "Dream of the Tang Dynasty" and those English songs, and watching the live videos of the Rolling Stones passed on by the foreigners, these rock fans began to worship them:

"China actually has such an outstanding band, how come we didn't know about it before?"

"Well, I originally thought that the absence of the Feng Band would reduce my expectations for this performance, but I didn't expect that I would discover such an excellent Chinese band!"

"Last year they were the guest band for Hatter's European tour, and today they are the guests of Panama. They haven't even toured themselves yet. What kind of amazing band are they!"

"If the Rolling Stones tour in China, would it be more convenient for us to go to China than to Europe?"

As the Rolling Stones' achievements last year were uncovered one by one by music fans in the island country, the scalper ticket prices for the Panama tour in the island country doubled and tripled in just one night.

Many Japanese who had no plan to watch this tour before were the main force. They were able to see their own country's bands in a foreign country where rock music is more developed than in China, and they could see their compatriots on the tour of the world's top rock bands.

This kind of showing-off mentality that comes from the overflowing sense of national pride is completely unreasonable.

To make an inappropriate analogy, it's like the final of the Club World Cup is held in an island country, and you see a Chinese person in Juventus' main lineup, so you have to support them.

When these overseas students got the tickets and returned to China to show off, they heard voices in China criticizing the Rolling Stones.

Good man, who can tolerate this! He immediately responded with full force...

Liu Yongzhi, the UP host of this small broken station, relies on his geographical advantage of studying abroad in an island country to upload comic-related content. He is also a big UP host in the two-dimensional track on the small broken station. He learned about the Rolling Stones, not because of rock music, but because he learned about Bian Lang through "V-Monster", and then he became a fan of the Rolling Stones.

Previously, due to the verticality of his account, apart from using two videos to clarify the relationship between "V for V" and the Rolling Stones, he had not posted any other content about the Rolling Stones and rock and roll. But today, after seeing those domestic essays that were badmouthing the Rolling Stones, he felt really angry.

"The Rolling Stones are praised abroad, but you ungrateful people are just making a few bucks and not knowing right from wrong, and you are misleading public opinion..."

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He decided that even if he had to give up some traffic or lose fans, he had to let those self-righteous people in China see how the Rolling Stones, whom you all despise, are being adored abroad.

As a professional UP host, he has his own logic when outputting video content. He is not the kind of person who posts whatever he thinks of.

After some thought and planning, he decided to make a three-part series of videos to tell the true story of the Rolling Stones' popularity in the island country in three time periods: before, during and after the performance.

In the first video, Liu Yongzhi took many screenshots of high praise for the Rolling Stones from netizens from the island countries, and also invited two music bloggers from the island countries through a PY transaction to comment on the Rolling Stones' music online.

After editing these materials together, he posted them on his own account and went to bed without any other movements.

After all, this content is not what he updates on a daily basis, and he estimates that his fans won’t be very interested in it, and the traffic probably won’t be very good.

But his habitual thinking made him ignore the fact that the small broken station is the base camp of the Rolling Stones! And it is the kind of "everyone is a soldier" from the users to the officials.

The official side has long set up exclusive traffic for content related to the Rolling Stones. As long as you publish content that you want to roll, you will be able to get some of the traffic to start the first step.

Liu Yongzhi's first step was not a good start. After all, he was not a professional music UP host. He had some fans who overlapped between rock and 2D. However, it was already early in the morning, and these people did not think of spreading the content after watching it.

But as luck would have it, the angry Little Witch, the Rolling Stones' biggest fan on the station, happened to see this video before going to bed.

In the past, foreign music bloggers were invited to review domestic music, and there were even special reviews for Rolling Stone. But those musicians were all European and American. This was the first time that musicians from other Asian countries appeared on the show.

Before clicking to read it carefully, the little witch also looked at Liu Yongzhi's account. After finding out that he was a 2D UP host, she fell into a brief thought.

Putting aside the issue of account verticality, there are still many people who listen to rock music but are reluctant to reveal their preference in daily life.

Especially some good girls, who obviously take it more seriously than anyone else, but do not show any clues on the surface, for fear of being looked at strangely by others.

When she was in school, she was a little girl who carefully guarded her hobbies. When people around her were discussing the popular singers in the Chinese music scene at that time, she pretended to be happy to discuss with them, but her headphones were playing foreign punk music.

Once her classmates discovered her little secret, they no longer mentioned her when they talked about celebrities. They also said some bad things about her behind her back, so that she found it difficult to integrate into the group of girls throughout her high school career.

Later, when she went to college, she became good friends with several boys who liked listening to rock music. She thought that she could openly express her hobbies in front of everyone, but she was still disappointed.

After entering society, she went to work for an institutional unit. Because her hobby was exposed at a private gathering outside of work, her older leaders had the impression that she was unstable.

Then, in the next two years, she had nothing to do with any opportunities to get ahead in the company. She never knew why, until she once made her work public on a small broken website, and then her boss talked to her...

Fortunately, she had been managing her own account on Bilibili since college, so under the impact of various disappointments, she chose to resign and became a full-time blogger.

“Fortunately, there is Master Bian!”

Thanks to Bian Lang, her current income has surpassed that of her previous colleagues by several levels. She can also wear her favorite punk-style clothes without any scruples and loudly tell everyone that she is the cool girl who likes to listen to rock music.

After thinking about all this, she focused completely on the video.

It doesn't matter if you don't watch it, but once you watch it, her heart is immediately agitated. It should be said that although the island country is not well received by the Chinese people in many aspects due to some historical reasons, and many things it does make the Chinese people grit their teeth, in the field of modern art, especially music, it is indeed much higher than the overall level of China.

The girl from Japan who was invited by Liu Yongzhi PY to be the appraiser in the video, although her mouth was wide open into an O shape the whole time, her expression of admiration was even more than those crazy fans of domestic traffic stars.

But his professional knowledge reserves are really sufficient. When it comes to analyzing "Dreaming of the Tang Dynasty", he is no worse than domestic music critics like Bai Dao who were the first to come into contact with this song!

"You guys who are not used to seeing the Rolling Stones in China, they are regarded as treasures abroad, it's really..."

After watching all the contents of the video and discovering that Lin Jiafeng, the Japanese rock star, was among those flattering screenshots, the little witch kicked the ground excitedly, and the chair with universal wheels tilted forward, causing her to fall directly on the ground.

However, encouraged and shocked by the news, she rubbed her aching knee, returned to the computer and started working.

Unable to contact Liu Yongzhi, she directly recorded a simple recommendation video, briefly introducing the situation of Liu Yongzhi's video, and sent it out with a link, and also sent a message to Chen Shuting.

Although she is on a business trip in the island country, Chen Shuting is not as nervous as Bian Lang when facing domestic public opinion. Even though it is now past three in the morning in the island country time, she is not sleepy at all and is planning the follow-up publicity work for the Rolling Stones' trip to the island country.

She suddenly received a message from the little witch and wanted to wait a while before reading it, but then she thought that she was still sending a message at this time, it must be something important, so she got up and prepared to make another cup of coffee while reading the message, and then continued to work.

But after following the link, she stood in front of the capsule coffee machine for more than twenty minutes without moving. Finally, after sending a voice message of thanks to the little witch, she sent a message directly to the operator of the small broken station.

When Liu Yongzhi woke up the next day and found that his video had gone viral, he looked at the tens of millions of views and just grinned for a long time.

As for the domestic troll army and Rolling Stones haters who were influenced by public opinion, although they have calmed down a little, many people still sneer at them. In other words, no one can stand up to Bian Lang, otherwise this matter would be even more exaggerated.

However, with this wave of foreign support, the attitude of domestic rock fans has obviously improved. Anyway, those who are guiding public opinion now are all second-rate people, and there is no serious top star in the music circle who jumped out to speak.

These people are not stupid now. They really don't dare to go up until they really beat Rolling Stone and Bian Lang to the ground with their teeth broken and unable to get up!

What's more, King Liu, Xie Xinyan and Guo Sichu are all openly supporting Bian Lang and the Rolling Stones!

……

Looking at the Rolling Stones, Bian Lang and his group have already arrived at the Tokyo Dome and are making the final confirmation with the tuning team.

Although Lin Jiafeng could not attend the performance, due to his close relationship with Panama, he still came to the scene to take a look before the performance. Of course, he also wanted to get in touch with the Rolling Stones in advance.

But watching the Rolling Stones busy on the stage, he started chatting with Yiwo who was watching from the audience: "Yiwo, I know how you invited the Rolling Stones from China. As far as I know, it's not easy to see their live performance in China."

"Mr. Lin, I think this is the result of God's blessing. I didn't expect the Rolling Stones to agree so readily. It may be because we decided to add a performance in China!"

"Oh, really? Then can I go to Huaxia to be your guest?"

Yiwo did not expect that Lin Jiafeng would suddenly come up with such an idea. According to him, after the domestic concert in China was confirmed, it would be best if the Rolling Stones or other bands under the Rolling Stones would be the guests.

This is good for both the Rolling Stones and their band Panama, but if the Wind Band goes, it seems to be a good choice as well.

After their agent went to China to learn about the situation on the ground, he called the headquarters directly and scolded the person in charge of the market research department. In fact, he was mainly trying to find an excuse for his own dereliction of duty!

According to his idea, even if this cooperation does not make money, the company and the team will be able to accept it.

After all, China is a rock virgin land that has been made famous by the Rolling Stones. The sooner foreign bands start to develop, the more benefits they will reap in the future. And with a big company like DGM testing the waters in front of them, their risks will be much smaller.

The key point is that the timing is very good now. The Rolling Stones' influence in China through the Golden Melody Awards is unparalleled. In addition, Hatter is also on tour. The enthusiasm of rock fans should be at its highest during this period.

That's why he suggested either the Rolling Stones or a band under the Rolling Stones Music Group.

But if they could bring in two foreign bands at once, the Rolling Stones would probably be more willing to do so, and the investment and intensity in publicity would definitely be different!

"I personally am very willing to do so, but you know that performing in China is not an easy thing. I will discuss it with the team after today's performance..."

Lin Jiafeng didn't say this casually. Firstly, he wanted to make up for Panama, and secondly, he wanted to take this opportunity to visit China and have more contact with the Rolling Stones.

"Okay! It's settled then. I'll tell Wave later. I believe he would be very happy for you to go..."

As soon as Yiwo finished speaking, the melody of piano and guitar ensemble came from the stage.

The two people with sharp ears immediately shut up. After listening to this beautiful melody, Lin Jiafeng couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "It sounds good, but are you sure it's rock?"
