Huayu 1995

Chapter 101 Forming a Band (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
It may seem like you're calling on friends and family, but actually not many people are invited.

Moreover, Safeguard and Coconut Palm are not competitors, so Su Chao only booked one private room.

At most, it's like the older sister of Safeguard looks down on the older brother of Coconut Tree.

A brand actually made a kid treat everyone; how could you, a balding man, sit still?

"Little brother, it's your treat today!"

"I'll be there today!"

The coconut tree is also helpless.

Even if Su Chao is treating, he's the one who pays for it, and he didn't say he wouldn't treat anyone.

"I'll come, I'll come~"

Advertising company B, which produced the advertisement for Coconut Tree, directly spent money.

Although the advertising agency A that produced the Safeguard ad didn't quite understand it, everyone in the business couldn't afford to lose face, especially since it was a competitor.

He started taking out his money too.

Advertising company B was getting anxious. They had personally witnessed how Su Chao's two advertising slogans had made the client extremely satisfied.

It's like turning something rotten into something magical.

This year's coconut palm advertisement is bound to become a classic in the advertising industry.

Their advertising company will also benefit.

In the future, if I encounter any difficult clients, asking Su Chao to write a couple of lines of poetry will solve a lot of problems.

If Su Chaozhi hadn't been absent, they would have all wanted to hire him for their advertising campaign.

Jiang Qinqin had no idea what had happened that afternoon.

Seeing that a fight was about to break out in the private room over who was treating the guests, she couldn't help but move closer to Su Chao.

This makes me feel safer.

"Everyone, everyone, it's my honor to meet you all, brothers and sisters. Let me treat you to a meal!"

Su Chao quickly stopped the farce.

He called people over because he genuinely liked them, not because he wanted them to treat him to a meal.

Then he added:
"We can send flower baskets and gifts to our karaoke bar. You can send a flower basket when I sing later. Let me treat you to a meal. Have fun, everyone."

That solved everyone's problem.

He is really...

So understanding!

On the stage at this moment are Sha Bao Liang and Wu Xiu Bo.

Yes, they are both here.

They are singing "Close To You" by The Carpenters.

Sha Bao Liang tried singing with the audience.

I tried several times but failed each time.

I almost got beaten up by the top-ranked guy once.

Because he kept stealing the spotlight from the top-ranked singer, the top-ranked singer became increasingly frustrated, eventually throwing down the microphone and rolling up his sleeves, ready to fight him.

Wu Xiubo's distinctive English songs were also severely impacted.

The two, who were originally rivals, actually came together and decided to join forces to fight against the Su Chao.

We'll settle this once Su Chao leaves.

"The people singing at your karaoke bar are really good..."

The Safeguard lady gave a thumbs up.

The quality is in no way inferior to the karaoke bars in Tianjin.

"Of course, both of these singers are very talented..."

Su Chao agreed.

Having two top performers on the court together would definitely be great.

Looking across all the nightclubs in Beijing, only his and Xu Wei's combination could... utterly crush them.

However, Xu Wei will not be teaming up with Su Chao today.

He and Huang Bo sang "Goodbye" together. Huang Bo somehow got hold of a bass, and his playing was so-so, just barely passable.

"I've never heard this song before."

Qu Ying is a regular at karaoke bars. Born into an artistic family, she has loved listening to songs since she was a child.

I wouldn't say I've heard every song, but there's no reason she wouldn't remember a song that sounds really good.

The others also said they had never heard of it.

After listening to Huang Bo and Xu Wei's "Goodbye," the audience in the hall began calling out for Su Chao.

Some shouted Lance, some shouted Chaochao, and some shouted Su Chao.

Some even called him "Super Baby" directly.

Whether Su Chao comes or not, this is a daily routine.

"It seems to be calling you..."

Jiang Qinqin poked Su Chao with her hand, not expecting that Su Chao was quite popular in this karaoke bar.

"I hope everyone has a good time today. I'm going to go down and sing a couple of songs now."

Su Chao had no choice.

If he didn't go down soon, these people would start throwing rotten eggs at his two brothers.

Su Chao went downstairs and talked to the sound engineer Yao Qianshu about the song he was going to sing, asking the sound engineer to prepare it in advance, and then came to the stage.

Yao Qianshu held Su Chao's accompaniment tape and looked around.

Don't get me wrong, he's not trying to do anything underhanded.

Instead, they were worried about others making underhanded moves.

Hongjie had threatened him, saying that if he lost Su Chao's accompaniment tape, he and his family would suffer.

Someone will be watching him, and they'll keep him poor for at least ten years.

Your name, Yao Qianshu, won't help.

Yao Qianshu, who frequents nightclubs, knows all too well how ruthless and vicious these people are. He's under a lot of pressure right now. During the time Su Chao handed him the tape, he didn't even dare to go to the toilet.

He stares intently at anyone who dares to approach him.

Su Chao came onto the stage, but Xu Wei and Huang Bo were still on stage.

"Brothers and sisters, have you missed me?"

"miss you!"

The people in the private room finally understood why Su Chao called everyone he met "brother" or "sister".

It turns out they weren't the only ones.

How many older brothers and sisters do you have, anyway?

"How about the three of us form a band? Brothers and sisters, what do you all think should be a good name for our band?"

Su Chao sought advice from the other two people, and also from the audience.

Huang Bo and Xu Wei naturally wouldn't object.

They knew that Su Chao was taking care of them.

After Su Chao leaves the nightclub, those who want to make a living there will be more popular if they have a band name.

Moreover, guests also hope for the return of band member Su Chao. In any case, Su Chao has mastered the art of manipulation.

In fact, forming a band is very casual, and many singers have joined more than one band.

From a time traveler's perspective, Dou Wei has been in at least nine bands.

Zhao Muyang has been a member of several rock bands, including Baby Brothers, Breathing, Red Army, Dou Wei's Dreaming, Gao Qi's Overload, Tengger's Canglang, and Wang Feng's Baojia Street 43. At one point, he was the drummer for eight bands at the same time.

The title of "King of Drums in Northwest China" is truly well-deserved.

The other Ding Wu served in Black Panther and Tang Dynasty.

High-profile bands like Breathing and Overload are quite famous.

Su Chao casually created "Gray Track," which is considered a basic operation in the music industry.

The name is a bit of a hassle.

Someone suggested calling it the "Chao Weibo Band".

There are also bands like Su Xu Huang, Dynasty, and Wei Bochao... in various combinations.

I don't know which brilliant person shouted "Super Yellow Band".

The crowd immediately united in one voice:
Super Yellow Band!

Super Yellow Band!

Super Yellow Band!

The three people on stage were somewhat dumbfounded.

Big brother and sister, we're being very serious.

However, words spoken are like water spilled; since we've already said we'd let everyone come up with a name...

Such a consistent pass rate.

They could only celebrate the formation of the Super Yellow Band with tears in their eyes.

Xu Wei's eyes welled up with tears.

His name wasn't in it.

In the future, when people mention this band, they will only say it's Su Chao and Huang Bo.

Let him continue to hide it.

The first song that the Super Yellow Band sang after their formation was "Grey Track".

Everyone has heard this many times.

Beyond and Teresa Teng were both popular song requests in karaoke bars.

However, witnessing the formation of a band immediately changed the feeling; it suddenly seemed much more sophisticated.

Sha Baoliang and Wu Xiubo were dumbfounded.

Hey!
Why didn't they think of that?

They could form a duo, or bring Yang Kun over and it would become a trio.

However, Su Chao has now taken the lead again.

If they were to follow suit and form their own band, people would think they were imitating each other.

They imitated Su Chao by inviting guests up to sing, and they also imitated Su Chao by forming a band.

What else is being imitated...?

They're the top stars!
Huang Bo and Xu Wei left the stage after their performance.

The music was "The Moon Caused the Trouble," but the guests at the scene were unsure what Su Chao was going to sing.

To differentiate it from the Cantonese version, Su Chao named the song "It's All Your Fault," which also has the same intro.

Why do so many people cheer when he sings?

Many people in the private room had similar questions.

These people seemed to be under a spell; from the moment Su Chao appeared until he took the stage to speak, they all acted excessively excited.

This is a karaoke bar.

You're here to spend money, to have some girls.

It looks like a fan meeting.

Especially after the second intro of Su Chao started playing, people in suits, pot-bellied men, and even blond-haired, blue-eyed men all went crazy.

"It's all your fault / Even showing concern is wrong..."

Su Chao sang the Cantonese version.

Actually, he had a chorus version that he didn't release, otherwise these people would have gone even crazier today.

The chorus version didn't add anything to his repertoire.

His income and popularity at the karaoke bar have almost reached their peak.

Su Chao plans to give the duet version to Xu Wei and Huang Bo as their signature piece for nightclubs.

There isn't much difference between male-female duets and male-male duets.

"This should be his original work..."

Zhang Guoli did see many scantily clad girls in the karaoke bar, but unfortunately, all of them were crazy about Su Chao.

He knew that Su Chao had helped create the theme song for "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo".

Therefore, it is speculated that these two songs, which are unfamiliar to most people, were both composed by Su Chao.

"That's it~"

The people at Advertising Company B suddenly realized.

No wonder Su Chao can improve the quality of an advertisement several times over just by coming up with a couple of lines.

"This song is so good! Did he write it himself? Why doesn't he debut as a singer?"

Qu Ying hasn't heard a better song this year.

One listen is never enough.

No, I have to get Su Chao to send her a cassette tape later.

"Waiter, could you please bring me a flower basket?"

The Safeguard lady opened the door and called out to the outside.

"Hello, sir. How much is the delivery? Are you sure you want it for Lance?"

There is a waiter at regular intervals outside the private rooms; guests can simply call out if they need anything.

"Yes, send three...five thousand!"

Safeguard's older sister can get reimbursed for all her meals and social engagements, but if she goes too far, it's hard to explain.

Three thousand yuan is reimbursable, and the other two thousand yuan is what she gave herself.

Giving more than two thousand yuan wouldn't be enough to express her appreciation for her younger brother, Su Chao.

Others also sent flower baskets.

Even Jiang Qinqin sent a flower basket worth 500 yuan, taking out a third of the money she earned that morning.

She was quite excited.

"Hey, if you really like him and you don't have a boyfriend, take this opportunity to make your move. Once he releases an album, even if you line up outside his door, you might not get a chance."

Qu Ying encouraged Jiang Qinqin.

If I didn't already have a boyfriend, you little brat wouldn't even have a chance!
