In the summer of 1995, China's reform and opening up entered a deeper stage, and the state began to delegate power to local governments.
These powers were just delegated to the local governments, who were initially confused and unsure how to use them.
But this is only temporary; they will soon find that these rights are very useful, especially in real estate.
Starting in 1997, a massive real estate boom was about to begin.
Liang Liang planned to take advantage of the fact that this wave had just begun and most people were still unclear about what was going on to acquire more land.
They will use part of this land themselves, investing in building something like a film studio.
This film and television city can be used for shooting movies and TV series, and can also be used as a training base, a small theater, and a music festival venue.
Anyway, it has a lot of uses.
He had already chosen the location: his hometown, Yahe.
Yahe is located right next to the sea, with both the famous northern scenic spot Bingyugou and the sea, making it a very good location to build a film and television city.
If managed well, it might become a famous film and television city in China in the future. If that happens, Hengdian will have nothing to do with it.
Acquiring land to build a film and television city requires a huge amount of money, which is not enough for him. He needs to find a way to make a quick buck, the bigger the better.
Their trip to Germany for this cultural exchange coincided with the 1996 European Championship.
If Liang Liang doesn't make some money, he will absolutely be letting down the people and the Party.
His ambitions weren't great; he just wanted to earn enough money to build a film studio.
Gambling is open and legal in Europe, so he planned to openly and legitimately make money from foreigners.
Liang Liang didn't take the piece "Summer in Italy" too seriously, after all, it was a piece from six years ago.
Since this song didn't appear in this life, he decided to take it to Germany to play with.
He didn't take the Italian Summer too seriously, but he did take the Cup of Life very seriously.
Liang Liang said he had to take possession of this song that would be sung at the French World Cup two summers later.
This song is a work by Latin pop star Martin Scorsese, and it was released on one of his albums in 1998.
But that was in his previous life, and it has nothing to do with him in this life.
As for why a Chinese person would compose a Latin-style piece?
If someone asked such a stupid question, Liang Liang would definitely seize the opportunity to boast about his musical genius.
Anyway, if you can't produce enough songs in every style, you can easily come up with two or three songs in each style to impress people.
For so many years, Westerners have used various means to create the image of white superiority. Wouldn't you call this a slap in the face to your face?
We have two songs that can impress foreigners, but that's clearly not enough.
I need at least a few more songs. The one from before my rebirth, Alan Walker, seems to be quite popular. That's the one.
He has two incredibly popular and influential songs; it would be a crime not to use them.
Since he was going to take the Hanmei group with him on this trip, he decided to let them shock the West.
Who cares if it's electronic music or pop, as long as the melody is good.
Whether it's real rock or fake rock, who cares!
Whether it's real or fake rocking, I've rocked anyway. Let the foreigners say what they want; it's their tongue, and I can't control it.
While recalling these foreign songs, Liang Liang wrote down the sheet music for them. He then asked Xu Mei and Lin Hanrui to rehearse the two electronic music tracks.
As for the lyrics, they can be used after some minor modifications.
If you discard the Western cultural elements, appropriately incorporate Eastern cultural styles, and add some ethnic accompaniment, you can basically fool foreigners.
These five songs have a foreign style, plus a few songs from their own band, and the Hanmei Band will choose four or five more.
That's enough, more than enough.
After finishing the sheet music, Liang Liang spent about a week completing the arrangement and then sent it to the band for rehearsals.
After all that busy work, April flew by like a train to the end of the month.
Starting from the 25th, bands began arriving in Lianwan.
The first band to arrive at Lianwan was a huge surprise to Liang Liang: the Bright Light Band.
A bright light? Who is that?
The mystery didn't last long; Liang Liang soon discovered the band.
Compared to other bands with long, flowing hair, the five members of the Bright Light Band are all bald and shiny, looking like they've just been released from a labor camp.
Liang Tianlei!
Seeing Liang Tianlei made Liang Liang feel inexplicably deflated.
"Sir! Did you just get out of the detention center? You look like a bunch of convicts. So, all that shine is on your heads?"
Liang Tianlei rolled his eyes: "Why can't I shave my head bald?"
"Even if you shave everyone bald, you can't all do it, or it'll turn into a labor camp! Wait! I don't think I invited you guys?"
"What's wrong? We can't come if we're not invited?"
"You've come all this way for nothing, you won't even get on stage... You wouldn't have come just to disgust me with this bald head, would you?"
Liang Tianlei laughed: "Why so many thoughts? Ever since you mentioned changing our band's name last time, we changed it to Bright and Bright. Shaving our heads, isn't that to highlight the theme?"
This has even touched on highlighting the main theme.
This summer is alright, but with a bald head hanging over my head all day, I'm bound to get snot bubbles from my nose from the cold.
Liang Liang even shivered subconsciously.
"Why don't you just call yourselves Bald? That would be much more practical! You're welcome to come. If you're good enough, I can arrange for you to go on stage. But don't cause any trouble in Lianwan. Don't embarrass me."
“Your worries are completely unnecessary. We’re here to learn and broaden our horizons; of course we won’t cause any trouble.”
"Great! I'll find someone to arrange accommodation for you."
Liang Liang contacted the music festival organizing committee and arranged accommodations for them.
There were many more bands this year than last year.
More than twenty bands came from the three northeastern provinces alone, excluding Lianwan City.
More than a dozen bands came to Shucun.
This year also includes some bands from Shijiazhuang, Xinxiang Jinan and other places.
There were fifty bands from other places, and with the addition of local bands from Lianwan, Lianwan has gathered more than 100 bands this year.
Accommodation is not a problem for these people.
Both the east and west buildings of the music academy are usable; we can arrange things however we want.
But the performance itself is a problem.
There are so many bands, it's impossible to schedule them all!
It seems the music school grounds are a bit too small, so they have to divide the students into different groups.
But where should they be distributed?
Lianwan People's Stadium is under renovation, and Jinzhou Stadium has just started construction, so there is no place to divert the crowd.
It involves utilizing the dance hall, disco, and two small theaters...
They are too small; even if all of them were used, they could only accommodate a little over two thousand people, plus the music school, which can hold a total of five thousand and a few hundred people.
The maximum number of people allowed in at one time is 8,000.
However, it is said that tens of thousands of fans came to Lianwan this year.
Another annoying thing came to mind.
