Perfect Superstar

Chapter 3 Small shrimp in the rivers and lakes

The backstage of Wangyoucao Bar is a separate large room with two small suites inside.

The backstage is a space for bar singers.

There are a row of dressing tables and storage cabinets in the large room outside, plus five or six soft chairs for resident singers and singers. The two small suites have sofas, TVs, wine cabinets, independent toilets, etc. The facility is the site of contracted singers and bands.

The same is singing in the bar, the status of the singer is very different.

When Lu Chen came in, there were already two resident singers, a male and a female. The male singer was playing on the phone and the female was doing makeup. No one paid any attention to Lu Chen, who had just pushed in the door.

Because in this small circle, Lu Chen's status is the lowest.

"Brother Ye is early, Sister Hong is early!"

Lu Chen greeted the two of them as usual, then sat down in his seat and placed the piano case.

His position is in the far corner of the backstage.

The male singer gave a nonchalant "um", but the female singer put down the cotton pad in her hand and said with a smile, "Little Lu, you are late today, have you been criticized by the boss? Haha!"

Sister Hong is in her thirties this year. She has been in the Wangyoucao bar for five years. She is good at love songs and has a very good voice. Although her appearance is not outstanding, she is still a little bit in the bar singer circle in Houhai. fame.

However, she is still a lot worse than Zhang Nana, a signed singer who is one of the pillars of the Wangyoucao bar.

Despite this, she always maintained a condescending arrogance towards Lu Chen. In the question that sounded like concern, there was actually a hint of teasing and ridicule.

Lu Chen, who was sitting on it yesterday, would definitely be depressed because of this, but his heart was full of anger, but he couldn't break out.

But having experienced three different lives in the dream, his mentality has undergone a change that he didn't even notice, and he smiled lightly: "Thank you Sister Hong for your concern, I confessed to the boss that I was wrong."

Sister Hong was stunned, and she couldn't say what she wanted to say later.

She hummed softly, ignored Lu Chen, and picked up the cotton pad she just left behind.

At this moment, the door of a small suite inside suddenly opened, and a man wearing a black jacket and long hair shawl came out.

"Brother Qin!"

Sister Hong and the male singer responded quickly, and immediately stood up and greeted each other with a smile.

Lu Chen took a beat and then stood up: "Brother Qin..."

This jacket man, Brother Qin Qin Hanyang, is the real big class in Wangyoucao, the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of the Wandering Band. He is an indispensable soul of the Wandering Band. Even the boss, Chen Jianhao, is polite to him.

The Wandering Band is a permanent resident of Wangyoucao. There are five members in total. In addition to Qin Hanyang, there are also a lead guitarist, a bass player, a drummer and a keyboard player.

In a bar like Wangyoucao, it is not easy to support a band. In turn, the existence of the Wandering Band has also enhanced the reputation and popularity of the bar, so it is a well-deserved pillar.

Qin Hanyang had no expression on his face, and nodded as a response.

He picked up a few manuscript papers on the dressing table, then folded back to his room and closed the door.

Sister Hong and the male singer's faces were a little embarrassed, but how could the two of them have the qualifications to be honest with Qin Hanyang? They had to know that a word from the latter could make them get out of Wangyoucao, and they couldn't even get along in the circle of Houhai.

Lu Chen smiled inwardly, he and Qin Hanyang were too far apart, and he had no idea of ​​clinging, so it didn't matter what the other party's attitude was, and of course there would be no embarrassment of a hot face sticking to a cold butt.

A bar is also a small river and lake, and Lu Chen is just a small shrimp in the river and lake.

He sat down again and began to comb his messy hair.

The atmosphere of Houhai Bar is different from that of Sanlitun, which is full of fish and dragons. The decadent and sloppy singers with fancy clothes and sloppy clothes are not popular here.

So your image is very important.

On the stage outside, the voice of the live host had already been heard, and that was the beginning of the warm-up.

Lu Chen must hurry up to prepare, he will be on stage soon.

As for what song to sing tonight, he already had a preliminary idea in his mind.

When the host was telling jokes to liven up the atmosphere, the waiter who had been guarding the door of the bar sneaked into the electronic music room on the right side of the backstage.

The electronic music room is very small. There are equipment and computers for controlling audio and lighting. All kinds of cables and wires are densely packed like spider webs. The red, green and blue LED indicators are flashing non-stop.

Sitting in the middle of the "cobweb" is a fat man who weighs at least 200 pounds. He is wearing a huge monitor earphone, and he is shaking his head and listening to music. There is half an unfinished hamburger thrown on the workbench in front of him.

"Fat brother, fat brother!"

The waiter called twice in a row, but the other party didn't hear it, so he had no choice but to step forward and push it hard.

Fatty opened his eyes abruptly, and when he saw it was a waiter, he couldn't help frowning, took off his earphones and said displeasedly, "Xiao Gao, you're not picking up customers outside, what are you doing here with me, go out!"

He is the sound tube of the electronic music room. In this small room, even if Chen Jianhao comes, he has to listen to him.

Of course Xiao Gao knew this, and he hurriedly offered a Kingway beer with a smile.

The fat man took the beer unceremoniously, glanced at him and asked, "Tell me, what do you want to do when you have nothing to do? I'm going to talk about it in the first place, small things are easy to discuss, big things are not discussed!"

"It's a small thing..."

Xiao Gao was instantly refreshed, and quickly leaned over and whispered a few words in Fatty's ear.

Fatty's expression became strange when he heard it. He looked up and down the other side as if he knew each other again, and said, "You are so yin, is this a trivial matter?"

Xiao Gao accompanied him with a smile: "It's really a trivial matter, I just see that Lu Chen's boy is not happy, relying on Xiaobai's face to be arrogant, we just teach him a lesson, let him know that it is not good to rely on his face to mix in the Wangyoucao!"

"Um..."

The fat man nodded thoughtfully, raised his hand and rubbed his fat chin, and said, "It makes sense, you say that other people are handsome and can't sing well, so instead of going to Sanlitun to be a young master, they would go to Houhai to pretend to be a literary and artistic youth. I have to wipe his ass, fat brother, isn't this putting the cart before the horse?"

Xiao Gaoyin smiled and said: "Yes, yes, fat brother, you are also for his good..."

He suddenly changed his expression, pointed to the single-transparent glass window of the electronic music room and said, "Lu Chen is on stage!"

A single-sided see-through glass is installed on the wall between the electronic music room and the stage, and the people inside can see the whole stage scene, while the people outside cannot see the inside.

The person who was walking to the middle of the stage holding the guitar, wasn't it Lu Chen or who?

"Fat brother, hurry up!"

Xiao Gao's eyes were fixed on Lu Chen, and his mouth was urging anxiously.

"What are you panicking about!"

Fatty glared at Xiaogao and said, "I know what to do, I don't need you to teach me how to do it!"

As he spoke, he reached out and turned off a button on the audio console, and the LED indicator on the auxiliary mixer next to him went off immediately.

The singers in Houhai Bar are basically live singing and even live accompaniment. It is difficult for people who have no skills to get along here, but the voice of the singer can be adjusted in the electronic music room. The ability to turn corruption into a magical power.

A truly professional tuner disdains mixing in a bar, and Wangyoucao can't afford it, so the backstage tuning is done by a semi-professional sound tube. With the quasi-professional digital equipment, it is no problem to cover the layman.

Among the customers who come to the bar to consume, there are also knowledgeable insiders, but there are not many, and they will not say anything if they know the inside story.

Lu Chen's playing and singing skills are very ordinary. He has the opportunity to appear on stage to earn extra money. In addition to his appearance, the backstage tuning of Fatty's sound pipe is also credited.

What makes Fatty unhappy is that Lu Chen has never given him any favors, he is bigger than the resident singer!

So now encouraged by Xiao Gaoyi, his resentment arose, and he temporarily turned off the mixer.

In this way, the sound played and sung by Lu Chen on the stage will not be optimized, and will be presented directly through the amplifiers worth hundreds of thousands of JBL speakers.

He will reveal himself!

The fat man smiled and gave Xiao Gao a wink: "Just wait and watch the show!"

Xiao Gao nodded vigorously, and clenched his fists excitedly - Lu Chen, see what face you have in the future to continue to mingle with Wangyoucao!

At this moment, Lu Chen didn't know that he was being calculated.

He sat on the piano bench, holding the guitar in his right hand, freeing his left hand to adjust the angle of the microphone.

After 8 p.m., and on weekends and weekends, more and more guests appeared in the bar. By now, almost two-thirds of the seats have been occupied, and many of them are old customers.

After preparing, Lu Chen said into the microphone: "Thank you for coming to Wangyoucao. Today, I will sing for you first, a flying pigeon, I hope everyone likes it!"

There was sparse applause in the bar, and a female guest who knew Lu Chen blew a loud hooligan whistle.

"Come on, Xiaolu!"

Many guests laughed, and the atmosphere became lively and lively.

Lu Chen shamelessly waved at the other party, and then prepared to start his own performance.

"Brother Jianhao..."

Behind the bar, the charming woman looked at Lu Chen on the stage, her eyes flashing a little bit: "You are a good-looking boy, very handsome, and can play and sing, let him come to my company. "

"he?"

Chen Jianhao laughed dumbly, shook his head and said, "Xiaolu's hardware is okay, but his level of playing and singing is too amateur. It's the limit to play and sing here, and you have to rely on the back to support the field. Do you really want to sign him?"

"That's it..."

The charming woman said decisively: "If you don't have a foundation, don't. My small company can't afford it."

There are more than three cities in the capital, there are many officials, rich people, handsome boys and beauties, and there are many talents with outstanding appearance.

In terms of music alone, there are three major music academies in Beijing, plus various music training institutions. I don’t know how many new people come out every year. Why bother to train a guy without foundation?

The charming woman just said it casually, and didn't take it seriously.

At this time, Lu Chen plucked the guitar strings.
