Text] Chapter 248: Making the Road——

It was almost nine o'clock when a group of people arrived at the bar. The waiter greeted and removed the reservation sign on the empty table. Qi Qingnuo told Lu Lin and the others that the person on the table was Fu Feirong. Several friends looked carefully and forgot to sit down.

.On the stage, Fu Feirong is considered a beautiful girl with nice clothes and makeup, and Zhang Yang and the others are not tired of it yet.

Fu Feirong was singing a very soft pop song, accompanied by Sister Ran's piano partner, both of whom were very infectious, making the already full bar less noisy.

Yu Xinting waved to Fei Rong, and Fu Fei Rong responded with a smile. Sister Ran came over to say hello to some of the little brothers she knew. She was exaggerated, soft and Wang Manyi was pretty.

Although it is a bright, gentle and even nostalgic bar, looking around, the women are all dressed up very fashionably and beautifully, and there is almost no one without makeup. In contrast, the girls around Yang Jingxing all look student-like, dressed and temperament

They are all, especially Zhang Rou, who has a girl-next-door look. Du Ling feels a little bit more like that. Although she doesn't wear makeup, her hair and clothes are not too tacky.

Lu Lin and the others didn't yell. They sat down and listened to Fu Feirong's song quietly. Then they clapped and called for a drink. Du Ling knew something about drinks and enthusiastically introduced them to Wang Manyi and Zhang Rou, and kindly advised them to drink less.

After Fu Feirong stepped off the stage, she walked towards the lounge. She didn't come over to say hello to the boss or her friends. Yu Xinting asked Yang Jingxing, "Order a drink for Panpan too?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Next time, she is at work."

Yu Xinting nodded.

Zhang Rou chuckled and said quite directly: "It's not as good-looking as I thought. I thought..."

Lu Lin despised his girlfriend: "You think it's all three and six."

Yu Xinting said: "It's much more beautiful than before."

Qi Qingnuo was working as the little boss lady again, helping the waiter bring food and drinks, and said to Yang Jingxing: "That table is for you."

The friends looked over and saw four young men, all in their twenties, sitting at a small table in the other corner. These people looked like they had drunk a lot, and they had been paying attention to Yang Jingxing and the others since they came in.

Qi Qingnuo said: "My dad said he came here yesterday and met Cai Feixuan."

Yang Jingxing made eye contact with the person over there. A man who looked to be the oldest in his mid-twenties also smiled and raised the beer bottle in his hand.

Yang Jingxing asked for leave with his friends and walked towards the table. After seeing the formality clearly, several young men stood up and greeted each other with smiles.

Yang Jingxing seemed a little reserved, and shook hands with the oldest one and smiled: "Hello, my name is Yang Jingxing."

Several people nodded and shook hands with Yang Jingxing one by one. The oldest one took the time to speak: "The bartender just told us that he didn't have the nerve to bother us. I'm sorry. We are all Chenglu people. Our band's name is Chenglu. There are many people who walk."

It became a road. His name is Sun Qiao, the drummer, and he has been in the team for three years. Liu Caijing, the lead guitarist, has been in the team for four years, and he is from Hangzhou! Gao Hui, he has only been here for two years, and he plays rhythm guitar..."

Yang Jingxing shook hands and said hello slowly. The leader of the Chenglu band introduced himself very quickly, and finally he said: "My name is Zhao Gu, and I usually play bass. Chenglu was formed by Liu Caijing and I three years ago. We usually play in

Pudong. I am very familiar with Tang Qihua, and we are both familiar with Warhead Repair." Tang Qihua is Cai Feixuan's boyfriend, and Warhead Repair is Cai Feixuan's band.

The appearance of these four people is not as flamboyant as that of the Warhead Repair Band. Except for the leader Zhao Gu, the others are all in their early twenties and have no eye-catching appearance or temperament.

Drummer Sun Qiao is estimated to be only 1.7 meters tall, with a very retro crew cut and a simple Chinese character face. Liu Caijing, the lead guitarist, has the longest hair among the group, but his figure looks quite thin, with a bulbous nose and single eyelids, and he doesn’t have a big l-l when he smiles.

Straight teeth.

The rhythm guitar player Gao Hui is a little taller, and he is the only one among the four who can see the tattoo. On his wrist, there is a red S-lightning pattern about two inches long.

Maybe it's because of his age, but Zhao Gu seems to have more temperament, his hair style is better than that of several team members, he wears a watch, and his clothes are fairly well-known brands.

Yang Jingxing sat down and refused the cigarettes and beer offered by several people. He said sheepishly: "They are all my seniors, but I am here to play with my friends today..."

Zhao Gu nodded: "I know, I'll come and take a look... the singer is very good!"

Yang Jingxing asked: "Did Cai Feixuan tell you?"

Zhao Gu nodded: "Well, I roughly said it." As he spoke, he lifted the large briefcase beside him onto his lap, opened it, took out a folder and handed it to Yang Jingxing: "Why don't you take it first and take a look at it when you have time.

"

Yang Jingxing took it and opened it, and found that it was a resume, the band's resume, the member's resume, and the works attached. They were all printed. The format was based on the form Yang Jingxing sent to Cai Feixuan, but it was more beautiful and detailed, and there was a cover.

Yang Jingxing looked at the resume first and found that although it was rich in writing, Chenglu Band had no achievements worth mentioning. Those music festivals and concerts were all very small-scale, and even the experience in bar residency was not very large.

In terms of personal resume, Zhao Gu has a bachelor's degree in science and engineering from a university, majoring in civil engineering. He is now working as an M-N manager in an environmental design company. He is now 27 years old. He started playing rock music and learning musical instruments in the early 1990s.

I started playing in a band and have already formed two teams... Please see the appendix for my works.

Liu Caijing is only 21 years old. He is an alumnus of Zhao Gu. He has not graduated yet and majored in computer science. He is really from Quhang, but from the suburbs, and he is in the same direction as Jiuchun. Please see the appendix for his works.

Sun Qiao is considered a professional. He is 24 years old this year. He graduated from an art school and started learning drums in junior high school. He has been the apprentice of a famous rock drummer. He has more performance experience and has won awards. He has no works.

Gao Hui is now twenty-two years old. He only has a high school diploma and has been in four bands...

Yang Jingxing would say a few words every time he read a resume, most of which were flattering. He especially admired the fact that a department manager of a design company still had time to play rock music.

Zhao Gu modestly said: "At least survive first before you have the strength to play music."

Yang Jingxing said: "But we may need full-time employment."

Zhao Gu immediately expressed his position: "I can resign... I don't have a family, and my parents don't need me to support them, no problem! I work for a small company now, it doesn't matter."

In fact, Qi Dawei also told Yang Jingxing that many bands nowadays, especially original bands that disdain covers and commercial performances, have to have a job to support themselves. After all, not many people can rely on original creations to make a living.

Yang Jingxing neither supported nor opposed Zhao Gu's idea, and asked Liu Caijing how old he was and whether his studies were arduous. Liu Caijing was honest and said that it was like he didn't go to university at all. He spent almost all his time on music. The only thing that computer majors are interested in is computers.

The only thing I know about is composition software, and I don’t expect to get a degree certificate through this.

Yang Jingxing suggested that it is better to graduate from university. Then Sun Qiao and Gao Hui seemed to have no big problem, as they were both full-time students.

The members of the band were relatively active and seemed to have a lot to express, but Yang Jingxing didn't ask too many questions and started to read the works. The first song, both lyrics and music were written by Zhao Gu. It started with a cry without a melody, and the cry was Gao Shen.

social proposition, and then there is a breathless strange melody...

The second song, both lyrics and music is written by Liu Caijing. It is a slightly more conservative light rock style. It is the kind that can attract many students on university campuses...it can also be considered a qualified work in a music conservatory.

The third song, Gao Hui's song, has Zhao Gu's lyrics. Zhao Gu's lyrics for this song are not so exciting, and Gao Hui's melody also tends to be dull...

There were five songs in total. Yang Jingxing read them carefully in the silence of Chenglu Band, and then said: "They are all good."

Zhao Gu was embarrassed and waved his hand: "Don't say that. We all know what Bullet Head says about you all the time. If you have any questions, just ask. We have one thing to say and another thing to say. Just give it a try. If it doesn't work, it doesn't matter.

Yes or no?"

Sun Qiao added: "We originally wanted not to attach the work, but Brother Zhao said that no matter what the level is, we will let you see it. We don't want to be fake."

Yang Jingxing was very respectful: "Brother Zhao, you have a job, he has his studies, and you are doing original work..."

Zhao Gu shook his head rapidly: "I'll tell you the truth, I have a job, but the time I spend with them is no less than the time I spend in the company. Several brothers need to eat, drink and live, not only

A lot of the salary of Sun Qiao’s girlfriend and I is also given to us. So, you don’t have to worry about your attitude towards music. We are all like this. I work overtime in the company during holidays just to let my brothers eat more good food, because

I think they are doing it sincerely and don’t want to see them suffer too much!”

Gao Hui couldn't suppress his drunkenness: "Sometimes we want to go on a show, but Brother Zhao won't allow it..."

Zhao Gu quickly shook his head: "It's not that you can't do it, it depends on how you do it. I want to do a place like David's, and I want to do it even if I pay a small fortune! But there are too few such places, 402, you may not know much about it,

Nowadays, very few of the bar patrons know how to listen to music. Many bars only require singers, not bands...I'm not talking about David."

Yang Jingxing smiled: "We will also have a show in the future, not just here."

Zhao Gu nodded vigorously again: "I know, I know! 402, let me ask you, when you said you wanted to do the business, were you doing it for money? Absolutely not! What do those few small coins mean to you? To be honest, we

Come, it’s really not about your fame and connections, nor your money. We don’t need much money, just enough to eat. We just think you are a music maker, a real music maker. Bullet Head thinks you are a person, and we admire you.

! By the way, we are doing original work... But over the years, I have also understood that rock and roll harms people. It is true. Although we have the deepest feelings for rock and roll... we are not that material."

Yang Jingxing said: "Brother Zhao is too humble... What do you think now?"

Sun Qiao said: "Transformation."

Zhao Gu looked at Yang Jingxing and said: "If you can respect it, these brothers can still do it. To be honest, when we saw David today, we were all excited and sad. David is such an amazing person. Even if he is like this, we are still

Why are you thinking so much! I really want to toast David, but I’m too embarrassed to ask."

Yang Jingxing said: "Don't be modest, how about the musical instrument?"

The people in Chenglu looked at each other, and Zhao Gu said: "As for me, a few brothers, no matter how good they are, if I go to Pudong now, just enter a bar and find a band, if there are ten bands, at least we will not be ranked in the bottom five."

Go."

Sun Qiao also said that Zhao Gu's bass and guitar were both very strong, and it was Liu Caijing and Gao Hui that Zhao Gu was the best. Zhao Gu was not only their elder brother and meal ticket, but also their teacher.

Yang Jingxing nodded and said: "Thank you for being considerate, but I will also tell you my requirements. Please bear with me. First of all, you must be full-time, just like working, whether it is rehearsals or performances, be punctual, and ensure quality and quantity..."

Sun Qiao said that this was no problem at all, and Zhao Gu asked everyone to listen to what 402 said first.

Yang Jingxing continued: "This is mainly because Brother Zhao needs to think about it. It would be a pity not to do such a good job, and it may not be worth it. Since it is just like going to work, you must obey the work arrangements. To put it harshly, it means that I will do whatever I say.

How about it……"

Zhao Gu nodded: "Of course."

Yang Jingxing reminded: "To put it bluntly, it's just a part-time job."

This was too unpleasant to hear. Sun Qiao and others stopped expressing their opinions, and only Zhao Gu nodded.

Yang Jingxing smiled: "Especially the salary is still very low."

Now everyone stopped expressing their opinions and remained silent.

"Let's do this for now. You guys think about it. I'll keep Brother Zhao's phone number. I'll have an interview in a few days and I'll contact you again." Yang Jingxing returned the folder to Brother Zhao and said, "I'll go over first. Thank you."

Zhao Gu said: "Okay, I won't delay you anymore and will contact you again."

Yang Jingxing left and went to the bar to tell Qi Dawei that Cheng Lu's account should be charged to him. Qi Dawei did not show interest in the ten-minute chat between Yang Jingxing and Cheng Lu, nor did he ask Cheng Lu if it was possible.
