After the show ended, Liang Liang returned to his residence and found Luo Lin and his band practicing the song.
The bands that came to participate in the music festival all stayed in Yangcheng Street.
Because of the long journey, Luo Lin and Guo Wang were arranged by Liang Liang to live in the same building as him after their arrival.
The difference in floor level meant that Liang Liang could hear music coming from the third floor as soon as he returned.
Liang Liang checked the time; it was past eleven.
Why bother practicing at this time?
There are canteens in Yangcheng Street that prepare dinners specifically for bands performing in the evening.
Liang Liang invited Guo Wang and Luo Lin to the canteen for a late-night snack, after which they would rest.
On May 1st, some fans who came to the music festival left, either to explore the scenery of Yahe or to go home to take care of other things.
Some people left, but more people flocked in.
During the May Day holiday, new people flocked to Yahe to watch the music festival, and the number of people not only did not decrease but actually increased.
Everyone in Yahe who runs a passenger transport business, whether government or private, is beaming with joy.
There's no longer any waiting time for buses; as soon as they arrive at the station, they're packed with passengers. Normally, these minibuses would run twice a day within the city, but now they run more than ten times a day.
In the morning, Liang Liang, along with the Yinna River Band and Luo Lin's people, were rehearsing the accompaniment for "Under the Northern Sky".
The game begins with the guzheng, followed by the flute, electric guitar, and bass, creating an atmosphere of antiquity and desolation.
I stand beneath the northern sky, letting the evening breeze tousle my hair…
With Luo Lin's husky voice, the song is transformed into a magnificent piece.
It's a pity the lyrics of this song are a bit bland, otherwise it would definitely be a classic.
In Liang Liang's eyes, this song is only a half-finished product. A single lyric is simply not enough to express such a grand theme under the northern sky. It would be great if it could be explored further.
However, since the melody was by Luo Lin and he had no intention of writing lyrics, he didn't say anything.
"That's settled then. We'll use this instrumental track when recording the album," Liang Liang declared immediately.
Next, Luo Lin rehearsed the song "Little Rain".
Luo Lin really likes this song, otherwise he wouldn't have included it on several albums.
This is a song with a story.
Liang Liang is certain that this is a song commemorating one of his two wives, but he doesn't know whether it's a tribute to his ex-wife or his current wife.
It's most likely related to his ex-wife.
Did he meet his ex-wife on a rainy day? Or was it drizzling the day he successfully proposed?
Isn't proposing on a rainy day a bit ridiculous?
Regardless of which wife he was associated with, the song "Little Rain" was destined to have little impact at the music festival. It may be important to Luo Lin, but it may not resonate with the general public.
He might as well sing "Twilight".
This song has been identified as having lyrics by Liang Liang and music by Luo Lin, and is also a song by Luo Lin.
"Xiao Liang! That's not fair of you. You gave Xiao Luo a song, shouldn't you give us one too?" Guo Wang said with a grin.
"I wrote the lyrics for this song, but someone else composed the music. If I hadn't given you a song with lyrics, would you have composed the music yourselves?"
"No! We don't have time to compose music. Just give us a ready-made one. Anyway, it's still yours if you give us the music."
They were a band signed with Haiyun Company. Liang Liang provided them with the music, but the album sales still belonged to Liang Liang.
With that connection, he wouldn't want to go through all that trouble; it's perfectly convenient right there.
Liang Liang laughed: "Alright! Anyway, I'm going to release an album for you guys at the end of the year, so I'll give you a song called 'Auspicious.' I'll sing it once and write down the music and lyrics myself."
Liang Liang knows even more songs with a snowy and grassland flavor; he doesn't need to bother looking for them, he can just pick one out at random.
Liang Liang brought over a wooden guitar and strummed a short intro.
The sky turned blue, and the clouds parted.
The migrating geese have returned from the south…
Most parts of the song are quite ordinary, but the chorus line, "Ya zip, spring is here," is something most people can't hit on the drum.
Guo Wang rolled his eyes after hearing this.
"Brother Wang! Can't get the pitch right? That's not my problem. If you really can't get it right, just lower the pitch."
People living in snowy areas tend to have high pitches, so it shouldn't be too difficult for Guo Wang to sing it. However, his band will be performing this afternoon, so the chances of this song being shown are slim.
The Haiyun Music Festival has now evolved into a stage for bands to showcase themselves.
The supporter behind the music festival is the owner of Haiyun Audio-Visual. If a band performs well, they may be signed by Haiyun Audio-Visual. Even if the band is not signed, Haiyun Audio-Visual will still buy any good songs they have.
For some small bands, a song can earn a considerable amount of money.
Therefore, the bands participating in the music festival all showed their true talents, and many new songs appeared at the festival.
Haiyun Audio-Visual Company has many professionals on-site to record audio and video, enriching their material library.
Besides their own company, film crews from Yahe TV and Lianwan TV also came here to interview and film.
All of this was within Liang Liang's expectations, but the fact that CCTV-8 also sent a film crew this year surprised him.
A music festival featured on CCTV?
Isn't this joke a bit too much?
Although in this life, thanks to his efforts, rock music was no longer so despised by society, and the Spring Festival Gala stage accepted them.
However, there is still a long way to go before the music festival can be featured on CCTV.
After all, all sorts of messy things can happen at music festivals, especially in terms of male-female relationships.
It's only because he kept things strictly under control that the music festival might have turned into a complete mess.
While some musicians in bands may be scoundrels, those female fans are truly shameless.
Liang Liang despised these people from the bottom of his heart. It was truly a sad thing for a woman to be shameless.
We are not those uncivilized foreigners who haven't fully evolved; we are an ancient people with thousands of years of civilization.
However, in the few years since the country opened up, our morals have clearly been distorted by foreigners.
Liang Liang couldn't stop these things; he could only restrain them within the limits he could.
During the music festival, he absolutely forbids musicians from having any messy things with those girls. If they want to do something, they can do it anywhere after the festival. It's not allowed here during the festival.
He didn't want to give people with ill intentions a handle to smear the music festival.
One reason CCTV-8 came to film a special program was that they wanted to know the program selection for the Blue Shark Band's Hong Kong handover concert.
When they weren't performing, Liang Liang accompanied them to the film and television city to collect materials. In addition to filming music festival programs, Liang Liang also had the crew film a lot of content related to the film and television city.
There's no reason to pass up an advertisement that costs nothing.
Liang Liang also sponsored the filming of the documentary, just so that the name of Pingshan Film and Television City could be included at the end of the documentary.
