Chapter 43 Want to Be Famous

When Li Mu and Chen Wan arrived at Jinling University, it was already past five in the afternoon.

In the Gymnasium of Jinling University, the stage and audio equipment were set up as early as the afternoon, and the competition will start at 8 o'clock in the evening and last until 11 o'clock. The assembly in the gymnasium has already begun, first draw lots to determine the order of competition, and then tune in the reverse order of the draw.

It is said that more than 50 bands from the whole of Nansu Province have signed up for the competition. The competition will be divided into three days. Today is the first day of the preliminary competition, and 16 bands will participate.

Eight of these more than 50 bands will be selected after the preliminary round, and then they will participate in the provincial semi-finals. Only the champions of the semi-finals will be eligible to participate in the finals held in Yanjing.

At this time, Zhang Kexuan's "Jinling Noise Control" band has completed the drawing and tuning, and they are the ninth of the sixteen participating bands today.

Seeing Li Mu, Zhang Kexuan, who had been nervously watching others' tuning, finally eased a little.

Seeing his fidgety look, Li Mu couldn't help but tease: "Why don't you just participate in a third-rate competition? You're nervous, you're useless."

Zhang Kexuan and the other three people exploded when they heard this.

"What is a third-rate competition!"

"Is this a national band competition!"

"This is a cooperation between several satellite TV stations, and the preliminary round will be broadcast on the TV station, okay?"

Li Mu shook his head again and again when he saw the angry expressions of the four of them.

Even if this kind of competition is national, it is impossible to achieve first-class influence, because the current TV stations do not have the courage and courage to do large-scale talent shows nationwide, whether it is mainland TV stations or Hong Kong and Taiwan regions. TV stations, they haven’t noticed the vastness of the talent draft market. It’s not that there were no singing competitions and dancing competitions in the past, but none of them can really build up their influence, so they will engage in such competitions with multiple satellite TV stations to share the cost. , make a little fuss.

It seems that the spring of the talent show still has to wait until Mango Channel's "Super Girl" comes out! After that, there were national talent shows such as Happy Boys and The Voice of China.

Li Mu couldn't help looking at the four of Zhang Kexuan. To be honest, from their looks, outfits, to their band's name, they were all standard street smashers, and there was no possibility of them becoming popular.

Rock music is a niche aesthetic in China after all, and most of the rock bands put more emphasis on form than music, such as Zhang Kexuan and the others, they have not even found their own suitable music style, but the rock style is very strong, everyone They are all leather jackets and trousers. The shortest hair is almost reaching the shoulders. The hair is as long as Zhang Kexuan. In the whole country, there is no market at all.

Li Mu began to worry about whether the song "Li Bai" would really fall into the hands of these big long hairs, and then in a few years, it would be inadvertently sung by a contestant who participated in a talent show, such as Song Song The fat song "Miss Dong" makes people sigh.

The reason why Song Pang didn't sing "Miss Dong" by himself is because the signing company is not strong, and on the other hand, his own image is really difficult to become popular. No matter how he works, he will not become popular.

Just when the four were angry, Li Mu suddenly asked Zhang Kexuan.

"Can you lift up all your long hair and let me see?"

Li Mu's words made the five people, including Chen Wan, stunned.

"Do...what are you doing?"

Zhang Kexuan felt a little weird.

Li Mu said lightly, "See if you have the potential to become popular."

Everyone looked at each other, if someone else made such a request to Zhang Kexuan, maybe he would immediately punch the other party, but Li Mu said this from his mouth. Although he was awkward, he hesitated for a moment, and reached out to get all his hair. Behind his head, his entire face was exposed.

Li Mu nodded: "Clear eyebrows, not bad."

Zhang Kexuan's face turned black: "What do you mean?"

Li Mu didn't answer his question, but suddenly got interested, looked at Zhang Kexuan, and asked with a smile, "Why do you guys play rock?"

"I like it!" Zhang Kexuan replied casually: "Rock and roll is a kind of spirit, awesome."

Li Mu asked again, "Then why do you have long hair?"

Ye Tianming said: "Damn, how do you say it in Yanjing dialect, Fan Er!"

"What Fan'er?" Li Mu frowned: "Is it a pretending Fan'er?"

Ye Tianming was in a hurry. Just as he was about to refute, Li Mu asked again, "What is the real purpose of your participation in this competition?"

"prove yourself."

The four answered in unison.

Li Mu asked ruthlessly: "To buy my songs to prove yourself?"

The four of them blushed.

Li Mu said: "If you want to be famous, just say it straight. I can be your backstage and write songs for you. As long as you listen to me, I am sure that you will become the most popular band in the country."

"real?"

Li Mu smiled slightly: "It's too simple to think about fire, it can be song fire, people fire, or people and songs are fire together."

The four of them looked at Li Mu like a monster. They couldn't understand why Li Mu took fame so lightly.

For Li Mu, a business prototype had already begun to emerge in his mind at this time.

The Internet music is still in its infancy. In two years, the slobbering song like "Rice Loves Rice" will truly let the Chinese people see the influence of the Internet on music communication. is the key.

Li Mu is now ready to develop Eting. If he can find a way to make Zhang Kexuan and the others popular, it will be of great help to Eting in the future. Push higher.

The reason why he let Zhang Kexuan show his face is to see if his true appearance is suitable for singing and being popular. I have to say, this guy looks good, but this long hair is delayed .

Last time in their rehearsal room, Li Mu already had a general understanding of Zhang Kexuan's voice. With a certain foundation, he could still sing with good guidance, that is to say, his voice passed the test.

Now, the looks have also passed the test, not to mention the songs. I know so many good songs in the future, and I can pick up seven or eight songs that are widely circulated, and combine them with the Internet. Who can’t push them?

Li Mu was thinking, Zhang Kexuan and the four were stunned, and Chen Wan broke the silence: "Li Mu, is there any way you can help my brother become famous?"

"Yes." Li Mu recovered from his thoughts: "If you really want to be popular, you have to listen to me in everything. There is only one way, and there is no other choice."

The four exchanged glances with each other and nodded in unison: "Okay, listen to you!"

The rich second generation also has pursuits. The pursuit of Zhang Kexuan and the four of them is to make music to become famous and to be famous, but they also know that their level is limited, but Li Mu is different. Li Mu's ability to write songs is not just a cow for them. Forced, it is too arrogant.

Seeing that the four of them had such a unified attitude, Li Mu immediately cleared his throat: "First of all, before the competition starts, go to the organizer of the competition and change the band's name."

"Huh?" The four of them were dumbfounded.

"Why change the name? Isn't our current name pretty good?"

"What an egg!" Li Mu curled his lips: "Jinling makes noise? You yourself said that you made noise, what else can you say? Besides, do you only want to make fire in Jinling, or do you want to make fire in the whole country?"

"Of course the whole country..."

"Then change the name." Li Mu said without a doubt: "It has to be changed. There are not many requirements for the name. It's simple and catchy."

"How can I think of it now..." Zhang Kexuan was crying, and the name Jinling made noise, the four brothers still thought about it for two weeks.

Li Mu waved his hand: "Let's call it a simple plan."

Although it won't be long before a punk band whose name is translated as Simple Project will appear abroad, and a band called Escape Plan will be formed in China, Li Mu is naturally rude.

"Simple plan..."

The four of them pondered about their tastes. The name was really simple, but it sounded catchy, simple plan, simple plan. After repeating it several times, several people found that the name was getting smoother and smoother, which was really interesting.

Zhang Kexuan gritted his teeth: "Okay, it's called Simple Plan. In the summer, you can go to the organizer now and change our name."

"It's a match tonight, can I change it now?"

"Yes, if you can't, just plug the money, in short, you must change it!"

He felt more and more that the four words Jinling made noise are what the hell...

Summer got the order, turned his head and left.

Li Mu patted Zhang Kexuan: "Go and cut your long hair before the game starts."

"What the fuck are you talking about!" Zhang Kexuan jumped up and frowned: "Cut your hair? Don't even think about it, my dad told me to cut my hair for several years and I ignored him!"

Li Mu asked back, "Apart from niche rock bands, think about the big stars you can name now, who still has long hair like you?"

Li Mu bit the word "big star" very hard.

"Uh..." Zhang Kexuan thought for a while: "Power train!"

"Come on, Gehuo people are not popular, if it wasn't for Huozhugege, you wouldn't necessarily know them."

"Dick Cowboy!"

"What's the difference? Are you going to say Mr. Liu Huan next?"

"I didn't mean to say Liu Huan..."

"Then you want to say Guo Feng?"

"I'll wipe you away!" Zhang Kexuan couldn't think of it, so he shook his hand and mumbled like a grudge: "Anyway, my hair will never move!"

Seeing him angry, Li Mu didn't care, just asked, "Do you want to be famous or do you want to pretend?"

"Uh..." Zhang Kexuan hesitated for a while, then lowered his head in shame: "I want to be famous..."
