Chapter 335 The Enemy of Life

Shuntian Prefecture, Changping County.

In the western suburbs of the county, there is a large open space. It is said that more than a hundred years ago, it used to be the barracks of the Shun Dynasty, and a troop responsible for defending the capital was stationed there. The tiles and stones were all removed by nearby residents and built into their own houses. When the government realized that the barracks could actually be regarded as a historic site, there were only a few ruins left here. people take care of.

Until the arrival of the new era, several young people who made music discussed and said: We make an appointment every year, let’s play music together. I believe that there must be many people in this circle, and I hope to have such a once a year party!

Thus, there is the Changping Music Festival.

It is a purely underground music festival, which initially created its signature with rock and roll, and then began to incorporate folk songs a few years later, and eventually both, and gradually became a well-known folk music festival in the domestic music scene.

This music festival was chosen to be located in the west of Changping County, in an open space that no one cares about, and almost no one cares about it.

Every year in the second week of May, from Friday to Sunday, a total of three days.

In the beginning, a large group of people who played music ran over and gathered here for a day or two. You sang your latest works, I sang my latest works, everyone talked and laughed, talked about music, discussed, studied, progress.

Simple, but happy.

Later, an audience began.

Of course there will be!

A large group of young people played guitar, sang, and performed here. In the first year, many local people came to watch the fun. Later, in just a few years, the people who came to this party , more and more, and as its reputation gradually spreads, at this time, many fans and music lovers will also come to listen to songs, drink, and chat.

So, it began to change from a private gathering to a public music festival.

Later, the original promoters of this music festival, some people stopped making music and became teachers, drivers, chefs, or other occupations to make a living, but there were still some people, even though they hadn’t made a living all their lives , but have been making music all the time, and later, finally, with the support and help of Mr. Xie Jinshunxie, they formed the official organizer of the music festival.

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the current Changping Music Festival gradually took shape.

As for today, it has begun to charge tickets for the audience who come to listen to the song.

Ordinary audiences, 20 yuan per ticket, can come in and out as many times as they like within three days. You can listen to songs, drink, chat with friends, or... pick up girls.

And if you want to perform on stage and promote your own work to so many fans and record company producers who come here, but you are not eligible to receive an invitation from the organizer, then OK, the registration fee is 300 yuan, Sign up at least one month in advance, and then you can get fifteen minutes of performance time, which is about three songs.

Today, Changping Music Festival has hundreds of underground bands signing up every year, and the three days are already very tense.

Of course, since 1993, the Changping Music Festival has had evening performances, so it is barely enough.

And the audience... In recent years, the fans and music lovers who came here to listen to the music on purpose in these three days are always more or less, at least, it is said that they sold a little over 20,000 copies Tickets, at the most, sold more than 50,000 tickets. It was an unprecedented event at that time. It is said that such a large open space was crowded with people, almost rubbing shoulders.

That was 1997, yes, last May.

After experiencing the continued popularity of the two albums "Liao Liao" and "The Sound of the Waves", even though "Grateful Heart" was not yet on the market at that time, Liao Liao's appeal in the music scene, fans and music lovers' hearts However, she has already reached an astonishing height. Therefore, when the organizer publicly announced that she would be present as the opening performer, on that Friday, the fans who came here from all over the country were almost overwhelmed. This is an empty field with only a wall around it.

And this year, Liao Liao will come, Li Qian will come back, and the four beauties will come!

The crowd is surging!

One day in advance, many people had already rushed over from a long distance, and all the hotels and hotels in the small county were full, so everyone was lying in their clothes outside the wall of the venue.

In May, the daytime is already very hot, but the night wind is already a bit cold. Someone drove up and saw many people sleeping under the wall with their guitars in their arms. They called a few buddies to get in the car. There were five or six people in one car. Everyone was talking, laughing, talking about their hometown and their love for music. love, and then fell asleep in a daze.

And more people got up early in the morning at 4 or 5 o'clock on Friday, May 12. After packing themselves, they went straight to Changping.

When the sun came up, the gates opened and the eight ticket offices started selling tickets simultaneously.

But at eight o'clock, in the huge and empty venue, shoulders had already begun to rub each other.

The ticket stubs have not yet been counted carefully, but the first box of tickets has been sold out early in the advance ticket sales period before closing last night.

One box contains 16,000 sheets.

In other words, there are at least 30,000 audiences and musicians pouring into the venue now!

Among them, there are young people in their teens, and uncles and aunts in their fifties and sixties. Among them, there may be policemen, civil servants, general managers, lawyers, and millionaires, but there must also be countless chefs, cleaners, white-collar workers, students, teachers, drivers, sellers of lamb kebabs, and noodle restaurants. ……Etc., etc.

Some of them live locally, and others may have set off a few days ago.

Gathered here today, they have different goals.

Some people want to see Liao Liao and hear her singing, some people want to listen to "Shameless" because of Li Qian, and some people want to see Zhao Xinfu who also promised to attend and appear on the stage, and want to listen again He sang "You are my wings, you are the flight of all my dreams". Of course, there are also many underground musicians, underground singers and underground bands. People promote their work, and even hope that their work can impress even one producer or record company executive who comes to the scene...

But there are many more people, just because of the music.

Because, this is a music-themed carnival.

The sun is gentle and the voices of people are noisy.

…………

At half past seven, Liao Liao went out.

Long wavy hair was loosely scattered, wearing a small suit on the upper body, a white shirt inside, a pair of casual distressed jeans on the lower body, and a pair of homely casual leather shoes on the feet.

The mood is lazy, and the mood does not seem to be very good.

Assistant Wei Lan quickly jumped out of the car and opened the door of the Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle for her.

Turning his head to look, it seems that no one else came out. The new assistant couldn't understand the situation, so he asked, "Sister Liao, where's President Li?"

Which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted.

If it was Huang Wenjuan, she would never have asked such a question.

Where Boss Li will live in any day, she knows where she is.

Liao Liao's face darkened, but he glanced at the little assistant who was worried, and then sighed again - he has just started working, so he must be brought out slowly, right?

So she forced a smile, got in the car, sat down, waited for Wei Lan to also get in the car, and said directly: "Let's go, it's just me."

Wei Lan is actually a nice girl.

She is also from the Northeast, from Shenyang Prefecture. She studied Chinese as a foreign language in Shuntian Prefecture. After graduating from university, she worked in a foreign company for half a year. She did some work such as sending and receiving documents, which was boring, so she resigned resolutely. He ran to Minghu Culture to apply for an agent, and was immediately spotted by Sun Meimei and Liu Mei who were in charge of the interview. Less than half a year after joining the company, she was picked up by Liao Liao again.

After having the idea of ​​pushing Huang Wenjuan out, Liao Liao checked the company and felt that she was the most suitable.

This girl has the air of a typical northeastern girl, and at the same time, she is not delicate and smooth in her life. In short, she is very satisfied with Liao Liao. In recent days, after she started serving as Liao Liao's assistant, Liao Liao also gave her a lot of advice.

The car was bought by Liao Liao herself as a car for her outings, but the driver belonged to the company. Of course, it doesn't matter whether it's her own or the company's, it doesn't really make any difference.

The driver is in charge of driving, and the assistant Wei Lan sits in the passenger seat. Just like a few days ago, he is still somewhat restrained.

Liao Liao sat in the second row by herself. The seat was very comfortable, but she just couldn't help twisting and twisting, feeling uncomfortable.

When the car entered a road, the driver drove more and more smoothly. Wei Lan held a large folder, twisted her body sideways, and said, "Sister Liao, I have your work and schedule for the next two weeks. It's all about the promotion of the new album, would you like to see it first?"

Liao Liao looked up at her and reached out to take it.

But no, I can't stand it.

Usually, she doesn't feel that much, and even if she changes someone else, she can treat it calmly, but now, when she thinks that he will drive her there, and she wants to drive there alone, She felt so ashamed.

It's unbearable!

Can't drive? Lu crazy?

Please, can't you tell the driver to drive?

Will you not be able to afford a car? Can't afford to hire a driver? Besides, your company won't send you a car?

Of course, according to the tacit understanding formed by everyone at the moment, Thursday night belongs to her, so that's just right. He woke up early on Friday morning to attend the music festival, and of course he picked her up by the way.

But... no!

If it was someone else, she might not care, and just smiled.

Wang Jinglu, there is no need to grab that one. Besides, although that girl is extremely beautiful, she is still too young to understand how a woman becomes a woman. In addition, Li Qian values ​​and protects her so much. It's as if she is just a little sister who is protected by Li Qian, so the pressure brought to her is both limited and limited. On the contrary, she is more willing to respect her more, and like Li Qian, treat her like a little sister, that's all.

As for Xie Bing... that girl is really pretty, she is pretty, and she is good at singing, and she is quite popular at the moment. But that girl is too honest, not stupid, but honest. It belongs to the kind of sweet, obedient little girl.

In short, it will not make people afraid and vigilant at all.

However, she is different!

From the moment he knew the relationship between the two of them, Liao Liao, who had never been afraid of anyone or nervous about anyone in his life, suddenly felt chills in his heart!

Although she didn't have much contact with her before, her intuition between women made her know immediately: that is her biggest opponent in this life!

Be it music, singing, or men.

Her cold and indifferent little charm, that full of literary and artistic taste, and even her voice that can no longer be a woman... is simply the enemy of life!

If it was another man, she wouldn't bother to argue with her, or show any signs of it. It's hard to say anything else in the world, there are too many men with guns in their crotches. Even if it is required to be handsome, to be able to sing, to play the piano, etc., no matter how harsh the conditions are, there are more than one billion people in the country, and there are a lot of them with just a swipe.

But Li Qian is different.

He was the kind of man who was the only one in the world.

Therefore, she understood as soon as the matter came out: she and that woman will probably be torn apart for the rest of their lives!

After thinking about it, she still couldn't hold back, took out her phone and called.

"Hey, where have you been?"

"Uh... still eating? How long did you last night?"

Old Wang, the driver in the front row, smiled slightly and lowered his head.

Wei Lan blushed a little and lowered her head.

"No? Tch! It's no wonder I believe you!"

"Me? I'm already on my way! I want to go there with you, I don't want you two to go together, but I go by myself, it's a shame. "

"I'm just jealous, I'm just playing with my temper!"

"Papa!", holding the phone in one hand, she patted the back of the driver's seat with the other, and said angrily, "Brother Wang, turn around and go to Sheepfold Alley. Sheeppen Alley, you know?"

…………

After more than 20 minutes, the sheep pen alley arrived.

Seeing this old-fashioned alley in front of her with her own eyes, Liao Liao suddenly patted the seat in front again, "Stop! Brother Wang, stop! Forget it, I won't go in!" After a pause, she sighed, Looking deeply at the alley, he said, "Wait outside!"

While talking, a phone call came, and as soon as she got through, she said, "I'm just outside the alley, and I'm driving that commercial vehicle. Let her come over with you. Don't drive by yourself, you can sit down."

A few minutes later, a man and a woman held hands and gradually came into view from the depths of the alley.

Seeing her boss clearly, and then looking at the woman beside him, Wei Lan was subconsciously taken aback.

Then, she immediately turned her head to look at her sister Liao.

Zhou Mo today is wearing a small suit with a white shirt inside, a pair of washed jeans and a pair of casual leather shoes.

Even her pair of leather shoes are frosted!

At this time, Liao Liao's expression was simply wonderful.

Damn, he bumped into her shirt!
