Entertainment: Is this how you play music?!

Chapter 339 This is truly an episode that will be considered a masterpiece!
[Oh no, this is really worse than a high school student!]

[But the problem is, DP seems to be a college student, and isn't it natural for college students to be a little better than high school students?]

I'm a college student, and the members of the DP band are all college students. College students = college students, so I = DP band.

[Fuck you, I really want to curse you, but I'm speechless.]

The music festival continued.

Their consistently high popularity has left netizens in awe, marveling at how terrifying a college student band can be.

After that, Devil Power presented more of their work, which made the atmosphere at the scene even more heated.

Even after the performance had completely ended, the audience's enthusiasm did not diminish much.

After returning to their accommodations, the feelings from the music festival still lingered. Even though they were sleepy, they were still excited and found it difficult to fall asleep quickly.

Out of boredom, I scrolled through my phone and discovered that "Girl Rock" had quietly released a new episode.

Obviously.

The promotion and marketing for this episode seems to be much more extensive than in the past.

Needless to say, anime fans have already been waiting in front of their screens with takeout in hand, either on their computers or mobile phones.

Some fans who watched the DP band's live music festival or watched video clips naturally clicked on it out of curiosity.

I originally planned to skip the plot.

But this episode seems quite packed with content.

The film opens with a scene of the female lead's violin string breaking during a performance.

This was followed by a brief professional explanation.

If a string on an electric guitar breaks, will it affect the performance of the other strings?
In fact, it has a significant impact.

Unlike classical string instruments, which use more nylon strings.

Electric guitar strings are steel strings, and after tuning, the tension of the entire string is balanced.

Nylon strings have very low tension; if one breaks, it won't affect the other strings, and the intonation of the other strings is not a concern.

If a steel string on an electric guitar breaks, the overall tension of the bridge will be altered, which will slightly affect the intonation.

It seems that the pitch is only slightly off.

However, if the pitch changes, relying on muscle memory developed through practice will lead you astray.

Unless you're as strong as a monster, it's very difficult to find the right pitch in a short time.

Even when Winnie broke a string, she made sure the pitch was correct by manually adding a slide and embellishment before continuing her solo.

At this point, the socially anxious female protagonist faces this problem.

This performance marks the first time the female lead's team has collaborated with the male lead, a former well-known artist, making it a crucial event.

The pressure from all sides suddenly became immense.

The audience continued watching.

Then I saw the heroine's shining moment.

Pick up the glass bottle at your feet and play a glissando using a slide.

Because of the glissando, there is room for error.

This is the same principle as Winnie's use of slides and fancy techniques to determine pitch, except that using a slide is simpler, but more exciting for the average viewer.

Power erupts in desperate situations.

Finally, in this tense and sweaty situation, the socially awkward female protagonist, pushed to her limit, began to break through her own limitations.

During the breaks in the performance, the strings were re-strung and tuned.

It seems to have undergone a baptism.

The female lead's eyes and demeanor were completely renewed; at least at this moment, she had recovered her main password and reached her peak performance.

The main event is finally here.

The original ending was supposed to be a clip from the Devil Power film's "Free Bird" theme song, featuring both live-action and animated silhouettes, and would not have been part of the main movie.

But at this time, the song "Free Bird" appeared in the anime.

Although the end credits and cast and crew credits have appeared, and the end credits song has started playing, the plot is still unfolding.

The only difference is that the performers have changed from three-dimensional to two-dimensional anime characters.

This really puts the audience's scalps to the bone.

Everything that should be numb is completely numb.

The animation reached an emotional peak.

The explosive performance caused a surge in comments.

[Flying, flying, flying!! Holy crap!! I had ears just to hear this!]

[Finally remembered your main password, huh?]

Wow, I just finished listening to the Summer Sonic Music Festival, and DP's motivational and inspiring message arrived so quickly?!

Holy crap! I feel like their interaction is creating a closed loop?!

Wow, is this how it's designed?

Now it's truly impossible to distinguish between 2D and 3D worlds.

The audience's shock came a little too early.

The performance was perfect.

Although the audience was sparse, the few who were there were still moved by the band's performance and gave them generous applause.

"Great!"

“That’s really amazing!”

This is a huge breakthrough for a girl band on stage.

It gained the approval of the audience, even though the audience was not large.

Even the smallest success can make one tremble with joy, and in this trembling, ambition for dreams gradually sprouts.

The two protagonists, who encountered different circumstances, both seem to have undergone some changes as a result.

Almost all viewers understood that the plot had reached a turning point.

Perhaps, it all started with this performance.

"Senior, please guide me in the future."

For the first time, the female lead broke through her inner barrier and overcame her social anxiety in a short period of time, smiling and bowing to the male lead.

Looking at the pink-haired girl who had overcome her inner fears, the male protagonist seemed to be moved as well.

This performance and this feedback are nothing out of the ordinary in the eyes of the male lead, and for the male lead who was once in the limelight, it even has a somewhat ironic meaning.

But this seemingly insignificant breakthrough deeply moved the male protagonist.

What seemed like an insurmountable obstacle to her was nothing to her. She even thought that she was just like that, controlled by social anxiety, with fatal flaws as a performer, and unlikely to achieve anything in the future.

But she overcame it.

What about yourself?

What you perceive as an insurmountable obstacle might not actually be a problem at all. Perhaps your own perception of the future can also be changed?

The male lead smiled politely at the female lead and spoke in the same manner.

"Please continue to guide me in the future."

One sentence caused the socially awkward person to break down on the spot, shattering the atmosphere instantly. The female lead's expression faltered, and the comments section erupted in laughter.

The atmosphere returned to its humorous state.

However, the audience did not realize it.

The ending theme song design we just saw is actually not the actual ending theme song.

The theme of "change" has reached a critical juncture.

As the female protagonist sat in the car on her way home, holding her guitar, she quietly looked out at the night sky.

After opening the car window, the wind blew through, lifting strands of hair.

The female lead's eyes were sparkling.

The actual end credits song begins at this moment with a piano prelude.

Rage your dream

At this moment, the male protagonist's soliloquy seems to be describing the female protagonist's state of mind.

"In this ridiculous pretense, I will burn my dream."

A dynamic European beat begins.

The camera angle is steadily widened through camera movement.

On a deserted highway at night, the taillights of vehicles create a dreamlike arc.

At that moment, almost all the viewers felt a strange sense of impact.

The car wasn't going fast at all.

But amidst the roar of the guitar-simulated engine, it felt as if it were accelerating!
"Go and feel the wind, and please don't forget."

The audience was absolutely blown away.

The barrage of comments instantly became dense.

There were even strings of exclamation marks expressing the shock in the hearts of the audience.

【! ! ! ! ! 】

[Holy crap! This is on fire!]

[Incredible! Holy crap, I thought that was the peak, but there were still experts out there!]

[Explosive! Holy crap! So this is how the collaboration happened?!]

At this point, the dream cycle is complete.

"A passionate dream can transcend time and space; ignite your dream and let it scream sharply in the wind."

In the music.

The vehicles kept speeding along. It was just the way home, and the female lead's expression wasn't exaggerated, except that her eyes were more expressive.

But at this moment, it feels so incredibly exciting.

at this time.

The comments section is now unified.

Whether you clicked in out of curiosity or were already watching the show.

It seems that everyone has reached a consensus.

The barrage of comments on the screen was still dense, but it had become more organized.

Ignite your dreams!! Xn
Instead of a score, a ball of flame appeared next to the screen.

With just a tap, flames burst into flames and surge into the barrage of bullet comments.

What I thought was the peak was not the peak. Just when I thought the emotions were about to subside, this unexpected turn of events occurred.

This episode left a very deep impression on the audience.

The female protagonist got out of the car.

It's just a few short steps.

However, he reached a peak in guitar solos.

Upon entering the house, a fleeting smile vanished as soon as he turned away.

As the door closed, the episode of the anime ended, and the song finished playing.

The audience seemed to have gathered a surge of energy within them.

The series of emotional fluctuations left viewers wanting more.

After the music festival ended, the already excited audience members were even more excited, and watching anime was just a way to relax and go to bed.

Who the hell would have thought there was a bomb here?!
This completely banished any drowsiness, and everyone pressed the replay button.

as predicted.

This time, there were many more comments at the beginning.

Holy crap! This episode is like something out of a Investiture of the Gods!

Watch it again!

This is too much force! I can't sleep at all!

Who the hell put "Rage Your Dream" on a sleep playlist?!

Let's get hyped!

Seeing these comments, many people smiled knowingly and continued watching.

The playback data from the anime group's account backend doesn't lie.

Compared to other episodes, this episode has an alarmingly high number of views and a high completion rate.

In particular, the re-view rate has surpassed that of the previous episodes, even reaching an astonishing 50%!
The content creators of fan-made content on anime and manga are absolutely ecstatic.

I simply stopped sleeping and, bursting with inspiration, started making all sorts of videos.

The Egypt forum was unusually quiet tonight.

Maybe it's because the trading platform crashed, or maybe it's because I need to sleep.

It turns out.

The abstract nature of the game has nothing to do with whether it's cool or not, and doing outrageous things has no impact on the opinions of fans and the general public.

On the internet.

The playful use of abstract references to the band DP resonated with the excited fans who were enthusiastically praising their work, creating a strange and harmonious atmosphere.

The DP band, as a cultural symbol, has finally gained a significant position in the world of anime and manga.

After tonight's episode aired, many Japanese animation studios were quite uneasy.

Japanese music is one of the world's three major music markets, and anime music accounts for an unimaginably large proportion of it.

Bands are also a very popular part of Japanese music.

Now that the buffs are fully stacked, it would be unreasonable not to use them immediately!

Just as Stellar Entertainment had in mind.

Seize the opportunity to enter the market, and if you do it well, you'll have no shortage of opportunities.

The most direct impression is of Wang Yongchang.

Only three days have passed.

The number of emails written in Japanese in my inbox has increased significantly.

"."

Wang Yongchang was not in a hurry to accept orders.

He calmly made a phone call, and his opening remarks were from an unexpected angle.

"I need three more translators here. Yes, this time it's Japanese translators. Oh, and please prepare translators for other Southeast Asian languages ​​as well."

The music market in Southeast Asia is highly complex.

Western, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean styles are all competing equally in Southeast Asia, but it's hard to say which one will become truly popular.

Needless to say, the success of the Chinese domestic market is a testament to the fact that such an excellent start in the Japanese market will undoubtedly increase the attention paid to the Southeast Asian market.

"."

Wang Yongchang is under a lot of pressure.

But Li Can is under very little pressure.

After the performance, Li Can and his team continued recording the final episodes for the animation.

Four days after the music festival, the group, having finished all their work, prepared to return home.

"Ah, I'm finally going back. I'm so hungry for it. I've been so bored these past few days."

Lin Feng and Chen Gang were complaining.

Li Can raised an eyebrow, disagreeing.

"Hmm? Really? I think the food we're eating here is pretty good."

"That's purely from practice."

Lin Feng glanced at Li Can and couldn't help but start muttering.

"Your trip to England has certainly increased your tolerance for certain tastes. In comparison, Japanese food is definitely more to our liking."

"Hahahaha!"

Everyone laughed.

Even Li Can couldn't help but nod in agreement.

I think this makes a lot of sense.

"Brother Can, when are we finally going to sing 'Double Sticks'?"

"Don't rush, it's not easy to make arrangements during this period. If we force it, it will seem too deliberate."

Li Can waved his hand and smiled slightly.

"The Japanese market has already opened up a crack, and we still need to continue. There is a lot of competition among bands in Japan, so we need to work on it for a while before making a big splash at our solo concerts."

"alright."

Chen Gang nodded.

Zhao Ze, who hadn't said a word, was getting impatient.

"I don't care about anything else, I just want to get back to China, damn it. In Japan, I have to eat sumo wrestler-level pork cutlet every day just to get a full meal. I only ordered takeout for our band three times, and they still managed to give us about twenty extra pairs of chopsticks."

"Hahaha!"

Amidst laughter and cheers, everyone began packing their belongings, preparing to return home.

Winnie took the initiative, and predictably, another chaotic scene ensued.

"Where's my pick? I have such a big pick! I've lost another one."

"The slide is gone too?!"

"Brother Can, how did your drumstick end up in my violin case?"

"Zezi, why are you wearing rosin on your bass? It's all melted."

"."

The noise didn't stop until we boarded the plane.

After returning to the capital, they went their separate ways.

As usual, Li Can didn't rush back to pack, but instead accompanied Winnie to their usual spot at the pub for a drink.

After relieving our fatigue, the next step is naturally the big battle before rest.

They were enjoying their drink.

Li Can sensed something was amiss and unexpectedly pulled a small seashell from his back pocket.

Winnie was taken aback, and her eyes turned dangerous.

"Huh? Isn't this my pick?!"

Li Can is having an existential crisis.

When did it end up in my hands?

A guitarist's pick is like a smoker's lighter.

Small, inexpensive, easy to drop, and hard to notice, but it can make people lose their composure.

"How many picks have I gotten this month?!"

"The fourth one?"

"Remember to pay me back everything tonight."

"Holy crap?!"
