Chapter 163 We Are Just Different



Tonight's rehearsal marked the first time the Blue Shark band used someone other than Liang Liang as the lead singer.

Liu Yuyong was the lead singer for Su Ennan's four songs.

Liu Yuyong has a very distinctive voice; his voice is quite similar to Su Ennan's.

Liang Liang discovered Liu Yuyong's voice by chance, which led to the idea of ​​having him sing some songs and dances.

This will alleviate some of his stress and allow his voice to rest.

Wang Fan's voice is negligible; it's too ordinary. You could pick up any old man on the street, and as long as he doesn't sing off-key, his voice wouldn't be worse than Wang Fan's.

It has no value for development or utilization, and can only be used as a substitute for harmonies.

Xiao Yu's voice is actually quite useful; it has a certain magnetic quality.

Liang Liang plans to develop a few songs for her in the future. Isn't it a pity that such a beautiful woman can't sing?

In the future, when the band holds a concert, he won't have to shout at the top of his lungs all by himself from beginning to end.

Zhang Mingming and Da Huajiao were still enjoying the rehearsal with the Blue Shark Band.

They rehearsed six songs in just over an hour.

This is not enough!

After the rehearsal, Da Huajiao came to get close to Liang Liang, using the methods of being from the same hometown and calling each other brothers.

Da Huajiao's family is from Shenyang, Liaoning Province, and they are fellow townsmen of Liang Liang.

Many of the singers in Guangzhou in the 1990s were from the three northeastern provinces, especially Liaoning Province. Xiao Fang and Zheng Fu were both from Liaoning Province.

There was also a guy who sang "When fellow villagers meet, their eyes well up with tears."

Liang Liang and Da Huajiao certainly didn't have tears in their eyes. In fact, Da Huajiao even dragged Liang Liang to the streets of Guangzhou at midnight for a barbecue.

The purpose is self-evident: to see if there are any songs he is suitable to sing.

The singer of "Big Flower Sedan Chair" has a powerful and somewhat rough voice, and Liang Liang has many songs suitable for him to sing with this type of voice.

"Brother Feng! It's not that I don't have songs suitable for you to sing, but now that you have your own company, it's not appropriate for you to spend your own money to buy songs, is it?"

Since there is a contracted company, the company should naturally be the one to make the purchase and pay for it.

Although the music scene in Guangdong Province is largely influenced by Hong Kong, it is still quite different from Hong Kong.

In order to expand their influence, Hong Kong singers will spend their own money to buy their favorite songs to boost their chart rankings.

Why would a mainland singer buy their own songs? Do you even have that much money to buy songs?

If you buy it, do you expect the company you're signing with to reimburse you?

Unless you're a big star or they think the song will become a hit, will anyone care?

"Brother! We're from the same hometown! Could you hum a tune that's suitable for me to sing?"

"What are you doing? If you think it's a good idea, go and pester Mr. Liu for money?"

"Of course! It doesn't matter who he asks for it from."

“Brother Feng! Since you really have this idea, let’s be honest and clear from the start. My songs aren’t cheap. Our whole band relies on them to make a living, so giving them away for free is simply out of the question.”

"Look at what you're saying, brother. I'm not here for nothing."

"Let's get this straight up, so that if the deal falls through, we won't lose our brotherhood. If you're buying on your own, I can give you a 20% discount this morning because we're from the same hometown and brothers. But if it's a company buying, then it's the full price, no ambiguity. Can your company afford to spend that much money on you?"

If an individual buys something cheaply, there's still a personal favor involved; but if a company buys something cheaply, who's going to take responsibility for that favor?

Therefore, the company cannot lower the price by even a penny when buying songs.

"It all depends on the song! If the song is good, I'll keep pestering Mr. Liu every day until I get the money."

Liang Liang looked at the bridal sedan chair and suddenly laughed.

At this time, Da Huajiao did not yet have a goatee, and his face was not so rugged.

However, the fierce and valiant spirit of northern men has already begun to emerge.

If this guy were to go all out and follow Liu Wen around every day, harassing him relentlessly until he pays for songs, the sight would be quite amusing.

Just to see this scenery, Liang Liang has to sing a song.

There were no musical instruments here, so Liang Liang simply tapped the table with chopsticks to create a rhythm.

Brothers for so many years

Who knows you better than me?

So many difficult things

Time and temper have been smoothed out.

That's right, this is the hit song "We Are Different" that was released 24 years later.

Da Zhuang's voice and Da Hua Jiao's voice have many similarities, and Liang Liang thinks that Da Zhuang's songs are more suitable for Da Hua Jiao to sing.

The song "We Are Different" was an instant hit upon its release in the previous life.

However, this overwhelming response included both flowers and applause, as well as heated debates.

It also represents two extremes.

Those who like it are brainwashed and sing it every day. They not only sing it themselves but also persuade others to listen to them sing it, until it is sung all over the streets and alleys.

Those who dislike it are met with a barrage of criticism, calling it tacky, low-class, and just a bunch of mindless pop songs.

Liang Liang's classification of songs is as simple as that of an idiot: there are only two kinds, good and bad, and no distinction between high-class and low-class.

Some people say that music has different levels of quality and value, but for him it's not that complicated. Even if you put gold in a song and place it on a throne, a bad song is still garbage in his eyes.

When listening to music, the main thing is to listen to the melody, and then look at the lyrics.

You can make a song sound incredibly sophisticated, but what's the point if even a dog won't listen to it?

Whether "We Are Different" is tacky or not is irrelevant, but its catchy melody is easy to remember and listen to, which is an absolute strength for a pop song.

This song, which was released more than ten years later, has a staggering 120 million plays on Tu Bi, ranking twelfth among Chinese songs.

With such high viewership, it's worth it even if it's considered cheesy.

"Ah! That's it? Where's the chorus?" The song was just getting to the point of being really exciting when it suddenly stopped, which was incredibly frustrating.

"Brother Feng! I can't sing it all out loud. If you learn it in one listen and go back to copy out the sheet music and sing it yourself, who am I supposed to cry to?"

The sedan chair was amused.

"You're so petty! Don't be surprised! This song is actually easy to learn after just one listen. I think it's pretty good, I'll take it! I'm going to go ask Boss Liu for the money right now."

"Hey! Hey!"

Liang Liang's raised hand remained frozen in mid-air for a long time.

This guy's brain must have short-circuited. He must have drunk too much and completely forgot what time it was, flying away on his wheels of fire.

It's almost 11 o'clock now, where are you going to find Mr. Liu to ask for the money?

The important thing is, it's okay if you run away, but you should pay for the skewers first!

Unfortunately, he changed his clothes when he came out, and didn't have a single penny in his pocket.

If someone beats me up for eating a scumbag meal, I'll be so embarrassed for my elders.

Half an hour later, when Han Chui and Liu Yuyong arrived, someone was giving the stall owner a long lecture on music, and the stall owner was almost drunk from his enthusiasm.
