There were many singers in the backstage area, and most of them were local people in the Beijing circle.
Unlike the band singers from other places, local singers usually did not camp in Yeshan Park. They naturally formed a different circle from the foreign singers who stayed in the camp area outside.
Of course, these two circles were not the kind that were clearly separated and minded their own business. There were people who knew each other and communicated with each other. Some were friends, and some were friends of friends. There was no antagonism.
But there were still differences.
For example, in the inner circle, in terms of fame and position, Liao Jia and LuChen are undoubtedly ranked in the top two. Beijing's local singers undoubtedly have more respect and attention to the two, unlike foreign singers, who hope to overturn them on the stage.
Who was Liao Jia? He was a big brother in the domestic pop music industry, famous for his forthrightness.
As a newly rising singer and songwriter, Lu Chen's experience was almost legendary in the Beijing singer circle. The story of his song "In The Spring" making The Bionics popular was still talked about.
So, the conversation between the two attracted the attention of many people present, especially when Liao Jia was about to bet with Lu Chen. Everyone stopped watching the TV screen.
There seemed to be a more exciting show here!
Lu Chen noticed the eyes from around him and said with a smile, "It's not enough to invite me alone. If you want to invite me, you have to invite everyone together. What do you say?"
The singers in the Beijing circle were still very respectful. Regardless of whether they heard it clearly or not, they all applauded loudly.
Anyway, they wouldn't lose out by applauding.
Liao Jia was so angry that he scolded, "Are you sure you can beat me? Dream on. There's no problem with inviting everyone. Whoever loses will have to open a table at Di Hao. There will be as many tables as there are people. Everyone will have a share! "
This time, everyone understood. Suddenly, everyone smiled and praised loudly, "Brother Liao is mighty!"
Di Hao was a famous five-star hotel in Beijing. Even a buffet there cost 388 RMB per person. If they were to open a table, the cost would be even higher. There were at least a hundred people in the backstage area, so they had to open at least ten tables!
Liao Jia looked at Lu Chen triumphantly. "You want to fight with me? I'm the one who can beat you!
Lu Chen smiled. "Then it's a deal!"
He extended his hand to Liao Jia and high-fived him to seal the deal.
Pa!
Two palms clapped heavily together. It was considered an interesting event in this year's 72H Grass Music Festival.
In fact, whether it was Liao Jia or Lu Chen, it was not a big deal for them to open eight or ten tables in the Imperial Hotel. They were just looking for some fun and excitement.
So the topic quickly turned to the music festival itself.
Liao Jia gulped down two cans of beer and, a little tipsy, began to comment on the singers and bands on stage. The content included the other party's style, works, singing skills, and so on.
Among the people present, only he was qualified to do such a thing. Even Lu Chen wasn't qualified enough.
Liao Jia was very outspoken. If he thought it was good, then it was not crude. If he thought it was not good, then it was not good. He did not use repetitive words or clichés that would not offend people, but his comments were quite sharp and on point.
Lu Chen listened more than he spoke, and he also discussed a few words with Liao Jia.
The surrounding singers were all attracted over. One of the most important purposes of the 72H Grass Music Festival was to communicate. To be able to listen to the live comments of this big shot in the music industry was definitely a rare experience for them. It was also an excellent opportunity to increase their experience and knowledge.
The stones from other mountains could be used to attack jade. By absorbing other people's strengths and comparing them to other people's weaknesses, one could completely improve oneself!
As time passed, Liao Jia's talkative nature did not decrease. Some of the singers around him and Lu Chen went on stage and left, while others came in to fill in, forming a unique circle in the backstage area.
The types of singers invited to the 72H Grass Music Festival were very complicated. Of course, there was no lack of existences to hold the stage. For example, today's big shots included Liao Jia and Lu Chen, as well as a few famous local singers.
However, whether it was Liao Jia or Lu Chen, or a few others, their order of appearance was quite late. According to the time, Liao Jia would go on stage to sing at around 7: 30 in the evening.
Lu Chen was an hour away from him.
However, this time was definitely not fixed. 72H was different from a normal concert. First of all, it was very long. Secondly, the time when the singer would go on stage was very variable.
This was mainly reflected in the return stage.
On this stage, even if a singer or a band was completely unknown and nobody knew their name, as long as they produced sufficiently wonderful and outstanding works, or displayed superhuman singing talent, they would be recognized and loved by the live audience, and they would even request to return to the stage.
The audience's evaluation was the only standard to measure a singer's performance. The longer and more enthusiastic the audience's applause, the louder and more impassioned the cheers, and the more sincere and intense the request to return stage, then the more honor this singer would win.
Although 72H did not give out awards, and there were no trophies or bonuses, this was definitely a place where one could become famous overnight!
Therefore, the singers and bands that could go on stage would basically all display their full strength.
Among the more than ten singers and four bands that had already appeared, there was a singer and a band that stood out and received high praise from Liao Jia.
Especially the female singer, Mu Mu. Her self-played and sung "Dew" made Liao Jia slap the table and praise it. At the same time, she also received crazy cheers from the audience. The audience used their applause to ask her to return stage and sing a second song.
Liao Jia said to Lu Chen, "You should sign her!"
Lu Chen was speechless.
He also thought that this female singer named Mu Mu was very strong, but currently, his studio did not have any requests to sign her.
If he took too big a step, it was easy to pull his balls!
Moreover, even if he did not talk about the music festival, there were too many capable singers in Beijing that no one wanted to sign. If Lu Chen Studio released the news, there would definitely be a lot of talents coming over to be taken in.
Therefore, even if he missed out on this Mu Mu, there was nothing to regret.
However, regarding Lu Chen ignoring his opinion, Liao Jia expressed great disdain, "You must be afraid that your husband will be jealous, so you don't dare to sign this female singer!"
He humphed and said, "Your husband is pretty good."
Lu Chen was very speechless about this.
With great difficulty, it was finally 7pm, and it was finally Liao Jia's turn to go on stage.
The reason why the time was brought forward and not delayed was because there were a few singers who gave up at the last minute or applied to adjust the time on stage. This kind of situation was very common in music festivals.
As soon as Liao Jia went on stage, he immediately received a warm welcome from the audience.
He did not disappoint, and brought out his own original song for the first song – "Memorial Day".
A pure-blooded national rock work!
