After the Black Island Band returned, they performed together with the remaining three members of the Blue Shark Band every night, earning at least 500 yuan in profit sharing each night, making life much better.

"Great! Thanks to the shipping company for giving us another opportunity." Black Island Band lead singer, Daiyu, smiled.

"While making money, don't forget to create. Creativity is the source of a band's ability to keep going."

"Xiao Liang! I've noticed that every song your band releases becomes a hit. How do you do that?"

Huanghuayu is the keyboardist and lyricist of the Black Island Band. He writes the lyrics for almost all of the band's songs, while drummer Baoyu composes the music.

"How exactly should I put it? It depends on how a band positions itself. Take your band for example. If you position yourself as a commercial band, then when you write lyrics and compose music, you should put yourself in the audience's shoes, figure out what they like to hear, and then write that. Don't worry about what others say, like that you have no stance, no style, no direction. My opinion is very vulgar. You can't even afford to eat, so why are you talking about stance, style, and direction?"

The members of the Black Island band exchanged knowing smiles.

"Of course, if you're tough as nails, and you'd rather starve than conform to the masses for the sake of rock and roll spirit, then there's nothing I can do. I generally stay away from people like that."

"What Xiao Liang said makes some sense."

"If you want to know what kind of songs the public wants to listen to, you can't just stay at home all day. Go out into the world and listen to the voices of the people. Don't care what others say. There's nothing shameful about serving the public. And there's something more important, at least that's what I think. If your heart is full of sunshine, everything looks bright. If your heart is filthy, everything looks dark. I hope you can face life with a healthy and optimistic attitude. Naturally, you won't write those kinds of melodramatic songs. In my understanding, those kinds of songs might fool seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls, but they're useless otherwise."

Liang Liang's words plunged the members of the Black Island Band into deep thought once again.

Liang Liang had said something similar before when they were at the Maritime Ballroom.

However, they didn't take it too seriously. After the unpleasant experience in Hongkou, Liang Liang's words resonated with some of them.

In particular, Liang Liang's words, "If your heart is filled with sunshine, everything will look bright; if your heart is filled with filth, everything will look dark," resonated with them deeply.

"Let me see your music."

Abalone then brought out a few songs that the Black Island Band considered to be of high quality.

Liang Liang listened to the songs one by one, and one of them, called "Lonely Island," caught his attention.

The song depicts a scene of a deserted island being battered by a storm.

Although the melody is a bit somber, I feel that this piece still has a chance of being salvaged.

"The melody of this piece is alright, although it's a bit somber, but you can still hear something uplifting in it. The lyrics are also alright, but I feel there's room for improvement. You've only written about an isolated island's unwilling struggle in the storm, day after day, year after year. If you add a lighthouse to this island and describe the role of the lighthouse in the storm, wouldn't the theme be elevated?"

The members of the Black Island band looked at each other in bewilderment.

"That's right!" Yellow Croaker slapped his thigh.

“Let’s revise this song properly, and then we’ll take you to Su Ennan’s concert to show your faces.”

Bringing the Black Island Band to the Suennan concert to increase the band's popularity would be a win-win situation for the Seaport Cabaret.

The gangster band, after all, performed at the Haiyun Dance Hall, and they were well-known in Lianwan City, which naturally attracted some people to spend money at the Haiyun Dance Hall.

When the Black Island Band heard that Liang Liang was going to take them to Su Ennan's concert, they immediately perked up.

They immediately began a large-scale revision of the song "The Lonely Island".

At Liang Liang's suggestion, not only were two verses added, but the melody was also modified.

On April 22nd, when Su Ennan notified the Blue Shark Band of their rehearsal, Liang Liang arrived with the Black Society Band and mentioned his idea of ​​bringing the Black Island Band to Su Ennan.

Su Ennan was supportive of the local bands and agreed without hesitation.

He also expressed satisfaction with the Black Island Band's performance.

However, Su Ennan frowned when asked about the Blue Shark Band's trip to Guangzhou on the 27th, 28th, and 29th.

"That means the rehearsal will have to be on the 30th. After the rehearsal, we can rest for a day and adjust our condition."

The matter of Su Ennan's concert has been decided.

Blue Shark Band has also begun preparations for participating in the album launch in Guangzhou.

The advertisements for Su Ennan's concert have already started airing.

However, these advertisements are currently limited to print media, including various newspapers and flyers in Lianwan City.

The commercials on TV and radio wouldn't air until a few days before the concert.

The advertisement not only detailed the lineup for Su Ennan's concert, but also devoted considerable space to introducing the Blue Shark Band and Black Island Band from the Haiyun Dance Hall.

The most direct reaction to the advertisement airing that day was that many bands appeared at the Ocean Shipping Ballroom that evening.

Why use the phrase "like a band"?

In Liang Liang's eyes, although these bands were no different from other bands in terms of the number of members and their appearance, it was obvious that these bands had only been together for a short time.

Liang Liang even doubted whether they could play a piece of music properly.

There were about six or seven bands, like the Oyster Band, the Tuna Band, and the Shrimp Band...

There's a skit by Gong Hanlin and Zhao Lirong that includes the line "Radishes are having a meeting."

If you put this in a modern-day maritime cabaret, is it a meeting for seafood?

"I can drink with you guys. You're like fish, and they're like oysters and tuna. If you put some soy sauce and salt in a pot and stew them, it would make a delicious meal."

Liang Liang made a joke about the Black Island band.

It must be said that the influence of the newly formed band, Beast Blue Shark, is enormous.

They don't have their own songs, but they can sing many of the songs by the Blue Shark band, although the accompaniment isn't always very harmonious.

Is this meant to transform the Lianwan area into a rock music hub?

Liang Liang naturally wanted to express his support for these newly formed bands.

They are far from being good enough to perform on stage, and Liang Liang can only provide them with a place to practice.

There were performances at the Maritime Ballroom in the evening, so training was naturally impossible.

However, the place is empty in the afternoon. If these bands have time off from work, they can go to the venue of the Ocean Shipping Ballroom to practice.

If the Blue Shark band has time, they can provide them with guidance.

Besides these local bands, another band appeared at the Maritime Ballroom, which greatly surprised Liang Liang.

He couldn't understand why they would come here.
