Chapter 11 Shengtian Banzi Band

Form a band?

To be honest, Qi Wei doesn't really want to form a band with others.

When forming a band, it is not necessary to share the profits with the band members. There are too many dirty facts among the band members.

There are very few band members who don't have conflicts among themselves and can end well in the end.

We often share hardships and hardships, and share wealth and hardship.

Qi Wei doesn't want to encounter such troublesome things either.

But these people, now they just want to hold on to each other. As long as Qi Wei forms a band with them, they don't need to share the profits or get paid.

As long as there is a chance to show themselves, they can even use their savings to help Qi Wei produce an album.

Well.

This is a bit hard to refuse.

Qi Wei's invitation to them requires their concerted efforts and help. If they refuse directly, it will inevitably chill their hearts and make them less interested.

If they agree, it might even stimulate their enthusiasm for work.

For the time being, we are still in the same stage of suffering, and there is no conflict.

After thinking about it, Qi Wei nodded in agreement and said: "You guys still take good care of me in the bar on weekdays. Your level is so high. I am quite willing to form a band with you, but it is only temporary. After all, I still have a future with this album.

It’s uncertain, no one knows what the future will be like.”

"It will definitely sell out!"

Some people laughed and agreed, but were pulled back by their backbone Song Bin.

Song Bin also understood the meaning of Qi Wei's words, so he said: "We will listen to you and form a temporary band first to see how it works. You can think of it."

Qi Wei smiled and said: "Yes, but it's not easy for you to make money. You don't have to use your savings to help me. I have saved enough to release an album."

Providing money to help with production means either you owe a favor or you will have to share the record when the time comes.

When making records, Qi Wei didn't ask Boss Wu for money, so how could he ask them for it?

Originally, I hired them to make the accompaniment to save money.

Qi Wei had also inquired about the price of recording a song in a recording studio before. The average recording cost ranges from a thousand yuan to tens of thousands of yuan.

The specific price will be determined comprehensively based on accompaniment needs, recording equipment, personnel salaries, recording days, etc. If there are special needs, it may exceed this range.

In fact, if you are not particularly pursuing sound quality, most ordinary recording studio equipment can meet your song recording needs.

A good recording studio will provide better results and save more worry, but it also means spending more money.

For example, Baihua Recording Studio, known as "Asia's No. 1 Studio", charges tens of thousands to record a song.

But now, Qi Wei's own wallet is obviously not enough to go to Baihua Recording Studio to record an album.

We can only settle for the next best thing.

After choosing several recording studios, Qi Wei has already decided on the most suitable one.

Bringing your own accompanist will save a lot of money. Qi Wei calculated the cost and found that the recording studio he found to record a song would not exceed 3,000 yuan.

In addition, Qi Wei is not planning to shoot a MV. At most, he will shoot a few posters and record an album of ten songs. The final total cost will most likely not exceed 30,000 yuan.

Qi Wei's savings from singing in bars were close to 10,000 yuan. Adding in the 10,000 yuan he received as compensation, he had a total of 20,000 yuan.

Although the money is still not enough, the card given by Yan Danchen has six thousand in it, and the card given by Mr. Zhou has ten thousand as compensation.

The total of these is definitely enough.

Qi Wei didn't want to use women's money, but right now, he was short of a little money, so he would use it for emergencies for the time being.

Although it's quite unaccustomed.

If you want to eat soft rice, just eat soft rice. I will pay you back twice as much when the time comes.

If you can't pay it back or don't want to pay it back, then it's not a big deal.

"Although it is a temporary band, it must have a band name anyway. What do you think is a good band name?" someone asked.

"I think it's called the Tengu Band. Tengu eats the moon. It's beautiful and romantic."

"If you match your cousin with a dog, it will last forever! You might as well be called the Sewing Machine Band."

"Sewing Machine Band? Why, you want to go in and step on the sewing machine. This is too unlucky. No, no."

"That's not what my sewing machine means."

“It’s okay if I don’t”

"When you were a child, your mother didn't step on the sewing machine to make clothes..."

"Uh...not really..."

When those few people were arguing about the band name, Song Bin asked Qi Wei: "What do you think is a good band name?"

"Shengten Hanzi Band!"

Qi Wei directly made the final decision.

Everyone immediately stopped arguing and all agreed that the name of the band was a great one.

That's how the band name was decided.

Qi Wei first made them familiar with the songs, and then rehearsed with them during the two days on the weekend, and finally achieved a tacit understanding of the song.

On Monday, I started to officially go to the recording studio to record songs.

Since Qi Wei was still a freshman at Nortel, he couldn't miss classes, so he had to wait until class was over to record songs in the evening.

I often have to work until one or two in the morning before I can rest.

This happened almost every day, and it lasted for almost half a month until the album master tape was about to be completed.

This is much harder than going to a bar to sing on weekdays. After all, when Qi Wei goes to a bar to sing, he doesn't go there every day, only three or four times a week.

Although Qi Wei is more serious about his studies than before, he spends less time and energy now. Although he has made progress, the gap between him and his classmates is getting wider and wider.

When he was lagging behind again during a rehearsal with other students, the head teacher Cui Xinqin frowned and couldn't help it anymore. He directly interrupted Qi Wei's rehearsal and called him out of the rehearsal room.

"I thought you were enlightened and willing to work hard, but why are you still a dog that can't change its habit of eating shit? Can't you just concentrate on your studies?" Teacher Cui scolded with a look of hatred for iron.

Like Brother Xiao Ming, Qi Wei's performance in the art exam was actually quite bad, but Teacher Cui still caught his eye and strongly advocated recruiting him.

No acting experience? It doesn’t matter. With such a good appearance, as long as you work hard to learn acting and improve your professional skills, you will definitely have a future in the future. Teacher Cui still has great confidence in Qi Wei.

But in this situation, Teacher Cui is really worried that such a good seedling will be ruined by himself.

"Teacher, I know what you are saying, but I have been really busy recently and I really can't help it."

"You should tell me what you are busy with. I heard from Kunkun that you haven't been singing in bars much during this time."

"He actually betrayed me! I have to go find him!"

"Don't interrupt with such a playful smile!"

Then Teacher Cui guessed and asked: "Did you go out for an audition?"

"no."

"No? Then why don't you tell me quickly!"

"Teacher, I told you, can you promise me something?" Qi Wei asked with a smile.

"What's the matter?" Teacher Cui frowned, and suddenly felt that Qi Wei was uneasy and well-intentioned.

"I would like to take two weeks off"

"You guy, you are just trying to get your nose in the face!" Teacher Cui laughed angrily and shouted directly: "You didn't audition to get the role, why are you asking for leave! You can't keep up with your studies, and the final exam is coming soon.

Well, I won’t be lenient if you don’t do well in the exam!

So don’t think about it, I won’t agree!”

Cutting through gold and iron, there is no room for doubt.

Teacher Cui's roar was also heard by other students in the rehearsal room. They couldn't help but stop what they were doing and listened to the noise here.

Everyone is a melon-eater.

All they heard was Teacher Cui opened the rehearsal room door and yelled at them.

"Why are you stopping? Why don't you rehearse more!"

The students started to move again, but they were distracted and their attention was still on Qi Wei.

Qi Wei was not affected at all, and replied calmly: "Teacher, I am busy recently because I am making an album record. The album will be produced soon and will be released in the next two days, so I would like to ask

Two weeks off to promote the album."

"Propaganda is not acceptable, I won't give you falsehoods."

Suddenly, Teacher Cui reacted and asked, "Wait a minute, did you say you were going to release a record soon?"

"Yes, teacher." Qi Wei nodded with a smile.

Teacher Cui's face was filled with shock and disbelief.

"Well, let me think about it."

And the classroom became silent.
