Two Hundred and Twenty Ninth, the Beginning of the Upsurge
Daniel Stannard, radio host, as a senior music radio host, he has been rolling in the radio field for a full ten years, until three years ago, he really had his own channel, and gradually produced a stable Listening groups.
Daniel really likes the radio, because those sultry and lazy afternoons in his childhood memories are always accompanied by the sound of the radio and the noisy cicadas outside the window.
Mr. Jon's radio station is the time to play in the shade, Miss Hunter's radio station is the time to take a nap, Mr. Carter's radio station is the time when mother comes home from work, and Miss Kenny's radio station is when dinner is ready Time, and bed time is Mr. Graham's station...
Once, in the young Daniel's world, the sound of the radio station was the ruler for him to record the scale of his life; similarly, he now hopes to be such a host.
"Duncan, thank you very much for calling, but do you know why I connected to your call?" Daniel's voice was low and magnetic, with a warm velvet texture, always in the lazy afternoon and evening. It is soothing and relaxing.
If it is in fast-paced New York, I am afraid it is not suitable, and white-collar workers will not like it; but in New Orleans, which is full of fun and leisurely, you can easily find a large number of crowds.
"Oh. Uh...Actually, I don't understand what's going on." Duncan didn't expect Daniel's Tico at all, and jumped out one by one with full heads.
Daniel chuckled, "So tell our listeners, what was your original reason for calling?"
"Order a song. I want to order a song." Duncan said quickly, "I like this song very, very much, I hope this song..." Duncan was stuck because he just dialed the phone impulsively, completely I didn't expect to be able to connect directly, so I wasn't ready.
wife?
But obviously, this song is not suitable for presenting to family members, nor is it suitable for presenting to children. Duncan turned his eyes around the bartender and the bar guests, using his quick wit, "...to the guests at the noon bar, and Every blue-collar worker stuck at their desk."
"Duncan, you haven't told me what song you want to order." Just from the voice, you can feel the warm smile on the corner of Daniel's mouth.
"Ah, sorry...'Chasing the Light', sung by One Day Kings." Duncan was a little flustered, and his mind went blank for a moment, but finally said the correct name in time.
Daniel let out a low, warm laugh from the back of his throat, "Yes, that's why. Viewers who listen to our show regularly every day should be able to see how many times we mentioned the song 'Chasing the Light' in the past week It has risen significantly. According to my producer’s reminder, we have received more than a thousand applications in just one week. Yes, this is undoubtedly a very surprising number.”
a thousand times?
Duncan couldn't help showing a surprised expression, completely unexpected.
In fact, the radio station can receive tens of thousands of calls every day, and that is hundreds of thousands or even millions of calls in a week. Putting a thousand times on such a denominator is not so amazing; but from the perspective of mathematical probability Looking at it from the outside, the amount of music is as vast as the ocean. It seems unbelievable that the same song was selected in the vast ocean, and it was also a song by an independent band.
At this time, the owner of the bar, Sam Payne, just appeared. He originally wanted to ask about the arrival of the opening band, but the sound from the radio made him stunned—why is the name of the band so familiar?
Surprise and consternation were fleeting, as Daniel's phone interview continued.
"The reason why we connected your call,
I just want to ask, what's going on here? We obviously don't know much about this band, can you introduce this band to our listeners? Why does everyone seem to be focusing on this particular band this week? "
ah……
Duncan suddenly realized, and scratched his head slightly cautiously. He didn't know how to describe it, "It should start from New Orleans five months ago. The story is a bit long, doesn't it matter?"
"How about this, let's make a long story short." Daniel skillfully controlled the rhythm of the conversation, "You just said that this band actually started from our Nola, so where did you meet them in the first place? Or, in other words, Where did they start acting?"
"Noon bar." Duncan gave the answer without any difficulty.
Sam, "..." I remembered! The memory also followed the conversation between Duncan and Daniel, returning to that sultry summer night.
Daniel is worthy of being a radio veteran. He keenly grasped the key points, and successfully extracted the framework and skeleton from Duncan's words with a few words of guidance, and the ins and outs were clearly presented. What is the reason for this song?"
"It makes me feel alive." Duncan's answer was short and powerful.
Daniel was slightly stunned, because such questionable questions often get ambiguous answers: "Because I like it", "Because my friends like to recommend it to me and I like it", "Because I have been playing it repeatedly recently", probably something like With such a style, few people can tell the specific reasons why they like it, so Daniel did not expect an answer, but just used it as a transition, preparing to end this call interview.
However?
"Vitality?" Daniel liked such a unique but vivid expression.
Duncan nodded, "Many times, we always feel that our lives are unchanged and lose vitality, but when I listen to this song, I can clearly feel the temperature of blood flow."
"Wow." Daniel sighed involuntarily. He liked Duncan's way of expression, so he also expressed his thoughts bluntly, "Because of your recommendation, I am also interested in this song now. Think, we are all looking for the meaning of life, for many people, music is such a beautiful existence.”
"Thank you, thank you Duncan for sharing such a happy story with us, and finally answered my doubts. I should be able to sleep well tonight, haha." Daniel joked a little to himself, and then turned to The director indicated that the call was transferred to the background to continue the conversation, and he needed to return to the show.
"To express our gratitude, we will present Duncan with a small gift, provided by Wendy's Restaurant. I hope Duncan likes it." Daniel completed the switch skillfully and changed the topic.
"Then, next, we will send you this special track included in Adele's '21' album, 'Like You', this is also a song that can make us feel the vitality of life, I hope you like it .”
