A new concert is about to be held. After the previous concerts have built momentum, the reputation of the Pink Dragon Band has also been greatly improved in several western states. The number of viewers who came to watch has also increased from more than a thousand at the beginning. , rose to more than 2,000, more than 3,000 people.
Therefore, the stage provider they contacted before, which could only accommodate a maximum of 2,000 people, could not meet their needs, so they had to urgently contact an open-air venue again.
It was the playground of a primary school. The environment was very elegant and the venue was very spacious. Because the principal of the school had recently invested a lot of money in the renovation of the school's library and basketball court. It was a time when money was in short supply. I heard that a band that had become famous wanted to use the venue of my school to hold a concert, which was exactly what I wanted.
As for whether a serious campus holy place is suitable for holding a rock concert, there is not much entanglement in a capitalist country where money is paramount, not to mention the fact that the principal's youngest son is also a loyal fan of the Pink Dragon Band. .
"Hey Ben, have you ever toured with a band on the school playground before?"
Daniel was tuning the strings of the viola in his hand while chatting with his teammates next to him.
"There have been about 500 spectators in the basketball stadium of the university. But the playground of the elementary school? No, elementary school students are not the main audience for rock music."
Ben answered without looking up while burying his head in arranging the cables for the speakers used in the concert.
"Indeed, primary school gives people the impression of singing children's songs from fairy tales, wearing thick doll costumes, and making a mess..."
The guitarist next to him, Wayne, seemed to be recalling his own years. He slowed down the stringing of the guitar in his hands and interjected with reminiscence.
"It's just that the fee charged by this principal is too high. Half of the money earned from the concert has to be paid for..."
Ben complained unconvincedly, and several people around him nodded.
"Haha, we have luck and strength. It is a good thing to have more and more audiences. Didn't we agree before? The purpose of this concert is to make us famous. Whether it is money or not is another matter. , will you still be short of money after you become famous?"
Captain Dan twirled a drumstick in his hand, shrugged indifferently, and smiled disdainfully at his teammates' low awareness.
"Famousness is important, but money is also important. If we make such a big move, we will have a lot of expenses... Hey, little girl, do you also like rock music?"
I was about to popularize the importance of Mane to the captain, but suddenly I saw a little girl with black hair, black eyes and yellow skin wearing a white dress and looking like a doll, standing next to her with her head tilted curiously. Looking at the bass in his hand.
"What is rock and roll? Is it also a type of music?"
The little girl looks like she is in first or second grade. Her speech is a little bit childish, but her eyes are very clear, full of the pure curiosity of a child.
"Of course, rock and roll is a type of music, and it's the best type!"
Hearing the other party ask this question, Ben happily showed his white teeth and strummed the bass a few times. A series of low and deep notes jumped out from the speaker next to him, frightening the little girl. You have to take a few steps back.
"Hey, you bastard, stop scaring the little girl. Hey kid, don't look at this guy looking so boorish, but what he said is absolutely right. Rock and roll is the best kind of music. All Everybody loves rock and roll!”
Wayne shook the handle of the electric guitar in his hand and came out in a pose that he thought was handsome. But when he saw the little girl's eyes were drawn to her naked upper body, with strong muscles, she was waving drumsticks to hit. When he was firmly attracted by the captain playing the drum, he felt helpless and bitter.
"Dan, you are still a little girl, put away your damn hormones!"
He yelled, grabbed the T-shirt that was sitting on a plastic chair next to him, and threw it at Dan.
"Wow, that's so cool!"
The little girl held her hands in front of her chest and stared with starry eyes at Dan who was waving the drumstick wantonly on the drum stand to make a rhythmic sound. Her eyes were full of incomparable yearning and curiosity!
"Hey, pay attention!"
Dan was very proudly showing off his drumming skills to the little girl when a T-shirt was thrown over his head and covered his head, causing him to shout in dissatisfaction!
"Uncle, this thing is the legendary drum set, right? The sound it makes is really nice!"
Seeing the other person hurriedly putting on his top, the little girl's eyes still did not stray away from the attractive combination of it and the drum set.
"Of course, drums are modern... no, they are the soul of the entire music world. Little girl, do you know that in the early days of the birth of this world, when humans first appeared, our ancestors were first made of animal skins. The sound of drums expresses the concept of ‘music’!”
After finally putting on the T-shirt haphazardly, Dan was about to turn his head and scold Wayne. When he heard the little girl's words, he suddenly became interested and hurriedly introduced the drum as an instrument.
"Yeah, yes, it sounds so nice. Can I try knocking it? I promise I'll knock it gently and I won't break it for you!"
The little girl's eyes revealed her desire for this instrument. She loved the "dong dong dong" sound that Dan made when he hit them just now. It made her feel that her little body was filled with energy. Strength and drive!
"Hahahaha, of course, of course, hahahaha!"
When he heard that a child liked music and his own instrument, Dan laughed more happily than if he had won any music awards, and handed out the two drumsticks.
"Don't be so careful, and don't be too gentle. If you knock it too softly, it won't make a sound. Try it first and knock it a few times to find out the feeling!"
Watching the little girl take the drumsticks and carefully stand in front of the drum set that was taller than her.
"Dong dong dong!"
She imitated Dan's example, held the drumstick and struck it carefully three times.
"Not bad, the sound is very stable!"
Dan was as happy as anything. He corrected the way she held the drumstick, and then motioned her with enthusiastic eyes to try to hit it a few more times.
His teammates also gathered around him at this time, eager to see what this little girl could do with the drums.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The little girl was encouraged and stopped being coy. She held the drumstick and struck the drum head several times quickly, and this time she also hit the cymbal one more time.
"Not bad, not bad. You are very talented. You have a good grasp of the rhythm!"
Dan happily reached out his hand and rubbed the little girl's head. He was originally a person who loved music passionately, and now he was very happy to see a child showing such interest in musical instruments!
"Haha, I also have musical talent?"
The little girl also laughed happily and asked curiously.
"Yes, kid, you have a great talent!"
In order to encourage the girl's interest in music, several teammates encouraged her with a happy smile.
"Haha, I am my father's daughter, and my father is also a very talented musician. He is talented, so it is natural that I am also talented!"
After getting acquainted with several "uncles", the little girl gradually lost her initial shyness and began to hit the drum head more naturally and powerfully.
"Oh? Your father is also a musician?"
Several people looked at each other and saw curiosity in each other's eyes. Could this be the daughter of a celebrity? It's not like that. How can a celebrity's daughter be so unfamiliar with musical instruments?
"Little girl, you said your father is also a musician. Does he sing any songs?"
Daniel naturally understood the little girl's term "musician" as another name for "singer" and did not think about the composer.
It's normal for children to not be able to tell the difference.
"My dad not only sings, he also writes songs!"
Hearing the other party talking about her father, the little girl's mouth naturally showed an arc of pride.
"What songs did he write? What songs did he sing?"
Wayne put his hands on his knees, making his head just about the same height as the little girl, and tried to ask her in the gentlest tone he could.
"Well, let me think about it, um..."
The little girl did not stop beating the drum head, but paused slightly, and then proudly showed off:
"He is not a singer from the United States. He is from Xia. He sings songs like these. You must have never heard of them, but there is one song that you should have heard. The song in it, have you heard of it? Then He wrote it!”
The little girl proudly reported her father's achievements. Although she had not seen his face for almost a year, she had frequently searched for her father's amazing information through her cousin's mobile phone during this time. Achievement!
Although she is still young, it does not mean that she does not have a rough understanding of these things.
Especially with the help of her cousin, she clearly understood and understood how famous and influential her father Jiang Kan was now in the Xia Kingdom!
She had downloaded and listened to every one of his songs on her cousin’s mobile phone!
For this reason, she spent almost all her pocket money. After all, the cost of downloading a song here in the United States is also 5 yuan, and it's still only RMB!
"What? You did mention this name just now, right?"
Several members of the rock band were laughing and joking at first, and they just thought it was a common knowledge about music with an ordinary girl who accidentally became interested in rock music because of them.
But the word that suddenly came out of each other's mouth made them collectively put on the stone-like JoJo stand that Sanxionggui did in the second part!
"Yeah, that's what I said, what's the matter?"
Jiang Xiaoyuan put down the drumstick curiously, tilted her head and looked at these uncles who were full of rock and roll elements. Some of them didn't understand why they suddenly became collectively petrified.
"This, this, this, could it be... that composer's child?"
Daniel was so surprised that he could hardly speak. He turned his head and looked at his captain. He just claimed that he had got a song from his neighbor's sister, the latest hit song created by the composer!
"You, you, you, could it be that...Mr. Jiang, I mean, Mr. Jiang Kan's daughter?"
Dan was also shocked at this time. According to Janice, the composer was indeed a Xia nationality, and the Asian girl in front of him who looked like a little princess did indeed have yellow skin and black eyes. …
Is it possible that there is such a coincidence in the world that I just got a song by Mr. Jiang, and in the blink of an eye I met his daughter who is still in elementary school in the distant United States?
"Really? Really? Are you really his daughter?"
The other two people also became excited. It is impossible for such a young child to live alone abroad, right? Which parent can let go of this kind of mentality?
Doesn't this mean that Mr. Xia Guojiang, who is little-known... No, Mr. Xia Guojiang, who has recently become famous in the American music circle, is now in the United States?
"Of course, why am I lying to you? He is my father. His name is Jiang Kan and I am Jiang Xiaoyuan. They both have the same surname!"
When the little girl saw that the other party was questioning her, she pouted unhappily and said without any doubt.
"snort!"
She even snorted in passing!
"Yes, yes, they all have the same surname, haha, you all have the surname Jiang! It's our fault, we shouldn't question you, little girl, you said you are your father's daughter... No, I mean you are You live with your father, right? Then is he also in the United States, in this city, or even around here waiting for you to come back? "
Dan was already speaking a little incoherently at this time. The other person had heard it countless times. Although it was just a theme song for an animated movie mainly aimed at women and children, through Janice's interpretation, it had already spread throughout the place. In thousands of households, it can be said that no one knows it and no one knows it!
Then the song he wrote for Janice was even more shocking, sending her to the top of the bulletin board list which she had not seen for a long time!
And such an amazingly talented songwriter actually looked out for Janice's face and wrote a song for himself and others that made him tremble with excitement like a thunderbolt after listening to it!
Although he has always been at the center of the world's pop music, or at the top of the trend, the songs that can shock him so much are top-notch songs that cannot be released twice a year!
For such a genius, who can be called a great composer, his daughter actually stood in front of him and others curiously, learning how to play the drums under his guidance?
A numbing feeling like electricity suddenly rushed to his shoulders, and the "sizzling" heat made his whole body tremble!
"No, dad, he..."
Hearing them mention her father, Jiang Xiaoyuan was eager to show off to them that she had a good father, but suddenly she seemed to have thought of something, and the words she was about to blurt out suddenly stopped!
"What happened to your father? Is he around here? Little girl, can you tell me?"
When several people heard that she was about to start praising her father, they suddenly stopped. They scratched their heads and ears anxiously like fleas on a drum, and even turned their bodies and heads to look around, hoping to see another person with yellow skin. Asian face with black hair and eyes.
A joke from Li is used here. Have any of our book friends read it?
Does the constant change of pronouns of the little girl here give the impression of a narrative trick? Anyway, I felt pretty good while writing it.
