Chapter 515 Solving the Problem
Gu Wei took the money and glanced at the people in the room.
"Xiaojing, Ruoyun, and Bolin follow me and I will take you to make money!"
Gu Wei waved to a few people. Although the other three boys were confused, they still Follow his footsteps obediently.
In these more than 20 days of getting along, Gu Wei's ability has been recognized by everyone. Even Chen Bolin, who just joined the African station, is very convinced of him.
"What are you going to do? Do you need my help?"
Jiang Shuying watched the boys walk out of the room and shouted worriedly.
Gu Wei waved his hand.
"Don't worry, Jiang Jiang, wait for our good news."
Soon the four boys took their respective followers and took a taxi to leave.
Regarding this situation, the Hua Shao program team will not care. They are only responsible for arranging tasks, giving money, and following the whole process. The rest is entirely up to the guests themselves.
In the living room of the villa, Jiang Shuying frowned, obviously still worried, but Nazha, who was sitting next to her, showed no worried expression at all, holding a small mirror and looking at it leisurely.
“Aren’t you curious about what Gu Wei and the others did with the money?” Jiang Shuying couldn’t help but ask her.
"Gu Wei will tell us when he comes back." Nazha said matter-of-factly.
“We are leaving tomorrow, how can they get money in such a short time?”
Seeing Jiang Shuying's expression, Naza smiled and patted her hand.
“Relax, since Gu Wei has taken over the matter, he must have a way.
I believe in him, no matter what he does, Gu Wei has never let me down! "
Nazha's tone was calm, but her words were full of absolute trust in Gu Wei.
She has known Gu Wei since she was in college in 2011, and for more than 6 years now, nothing the other person wants to do is unsuccessful.
This also gave her blind trust in Gu Wei.
“What are we going to do?”
In the taxi from the villa, Zhang Ruoyun was still a little confused.
"We came out of the Sydney Opera House in the afternoon. Did you notice anything in the square outside?" Gu Wei reminded.
“What’s the matter? There are a lot of people watching the music performance!” Jing Bairan didn’t know why.
"Oh, I know!" Chen Bolin slapped his thigh with excitement on his face.
"Gu Wei, are you saying that there are many wandering musicians in the square outside the Opera House?"
"Are we really going to perform?" At this time, everyone else understood what Gu Wei meant. .
Due to the dense crowds and the large number of music-listening audiences entering and exiting the venue, there were many wandering performers performing in the large square outside the opera house.
Some of them play the violin, and some play the saxophone. As long as they perform well, they can always get some rewards from the onlookers. It can be more or less, depending on the level of the performer.
"It's okay to try, but we only have one night today, and we're still short of 1,200 Australian dollars. Can we get enough?
Before we watched music performances, I noticed the street performers performing in other squares. Many of them were just You can receive dozens of dollars in rewards.”
Jing Bairan expressed doubts about how much money he could get from performing on the street.
This is in Australia, not China. To foreigners, they are not well-known.
Gu Wei is better, but his fame abroad is mainly concentrated in the fashion circle, and ordinary people still don’t know much about him.
In a short time, several people arrived at the small square in front of the opera house. Gu Wei led the three people into a nearby musical instrument store, intending to rent some instruments for playing for a while. This was what Gu Wei asked Jiang Shuying for money. reason.
It is difficult for a good woman to make a meal without rice. No matter how good Gu Wei is in music, he cannot sing a cappella songs to get rewards. After all, he has to use musical instruments.
"What musical instruments do you know?"
Gu Wei turned to ask the other three.
“I can play piano and guitar, and more or less other things.” Chen Bolin has played music before and has written his own songs, so he knows a lot about musical instruments.
"I can play piano and violin." Zhang Ruoyun comes from an artistic family, and his musical talent has been cultivated since childhood.
"Well, I can also play the piano and drums, and I'm pretty good at singing." Jing Boran is a member of the talent show entertainment program [Come on! Good Man] debuted, and once won the Shengjing singing district championship, but he rarely sang after filming.
Gu Wei nodded, it was enough for a few people to form a small band.
Finally, he negotiated with the boss at a musical instrument rental store to rent an electronic keyboard, drum set, guitar and saxophone. Of course, speakers and microphones were indispensable.
To be honest, according to the normal process, Gu Wei would not be able to rent so many things with the 1,000 Australian dollars in his hand.
It’s not that the rent is not enough. According to the exchange rate, 1,000 Australian dollars is roughly converted into 4,700 yuan. They can rent it for only a few hours, but Gu Wei has no money to pay the deposit.
After some hard talk, a few people agreed to perform within 50 meters of the musical instrument store, and the boss agreed after looking at a group of staff filming around him with cameras.
A few people moved everything out and adjusted the instruments. It was already past 8 o'clock in the evening.
“What song shall we perform?” Jing Boran sat in front of the drum set and played randomly twice. It felt quite refreshing after not playing for a long time.
“Can you play my song [Natural]?”
"It should be possible, but you have to practice it a few times to get familiar with it." Zhang Ruoyun stood in front of the electronic keyboard. He also learned Gu Wei's song when it became popular a few years ago.
Gu Wei took out his mobile phone and checked the time. The next performance at the Sydney Opera House ended at about 9 o'clock. At that time, the largest wave of people would come out of it, which was their last chance today.
"You guys search for [Natural] music scores online and familiarize yourself with it first. I will play the saxophone to attract some people."
When the four boys set up their formation, they attracted a lot of people. Several passers-by were pointing around them.
Zhang Ruoyun and the other three took the time to familiarize themselves with the score and the instruments in their hands. Gu Wei took a few steps forward with his saxophone.
The rich saxophone sounded, and a unique melody floated in the nearby night sky.
Pedestrians around were attracted by the sound and couldn't help but stop and listen.
This is a new song that has never been played before. Unlike most saxophone music, which is deep and calm, Gu Wei’s song is full of a cheerful atmosphere, which makes people unable to stop listening to it. Jump along.
After playing the song, the four-member band was surrounded by foreigners of both sexes. Everyone applauded, and some coins were thrown into the guitar bag that was open at the outside.
"Awesome Gu Wei, this song of yours is so good, how come I have never heard it before? It's so brainwashing, the melody is still ringing in my mind now"
After Gu Wei finished playing, he turned around and high-fived the others, and Jing Bairan couldn't help but ask.
"Of course you haven't heard of the new song I wrote." Gu Wei said unceremoniously.
The song he just performed as a saxophone solo is called [DanceMonkey], which is a song released by Australian native singer Toni Watson in 2019.
This song was a huge success in Europe and the United States that year, becoming a veritable "chart-killing" song in various countries. It has topped the charts in Belgium, Norway and Switzerland for more than 15 consecutive weeks, and even topped the charts in Australia for 22 weeks. .
So he was sure that the foreigners in Sydney would like it. "Ruoyun, let me use the electronic keyboard first." Gu Wei put down the saxophone and put the microphone next to the electronic keyboard.
Just now it was a purely musical saxophone solo, now he is going to perform a complete song.
"Okay." Zhang Ruoyun quickly moved out of the way and helped Gu Wei put things away.
“Dang Dang. Dang.” The electronic piano version of [DanceMonkey] sounded, which was different from the saxophone.
“TheysayohmygodIseethewayyoushine
Takeyourhandmydearandplacethembothinmine
”
Gu Wei sang into the microphone while playing the accompaniment of the electronic keyboard.
Compared with the pure music just now, the complete song has a greater impact on the audience. Big.
"SoIsay
Danceformedanceformedanceformeohohoh
”
At the climax of the song, some of the foreigners watching could not help but twist their bodies to follow the song. As the music enveloped the street, everything seemed to fall into a joyful atmosphere. In the atmosphere.
More and more people gathered around the four-piece band, and it has become the largest gathering point in the small square outside the Sydney Opera House.
The time soon came to 9 o'clock. The performance at the opera house ended and a large number of spectators came out from the main entrance
Lai Qiyao also went out with her good friends. They were students from China studying in Australia. They were classmates in the same dormitory and they made an appointment to go out to watch a music performance together in the evening.
"Yaoyao, look at the so many people gathered over there, what are they doing?"
Lai Qiyao looked around.
“There are usually a lot of wandering performers here, either playing musical instruments or playing and singing.
But I have never seen so many people gathered around. , it’s time to catch up with the celebrity meeting!”
"Let's go take a look too?" her friend suggested, taking her arm.
"No, it's a bit late. Besides, there are so many people over there, it's hard for us to squeeze in." Lai Qiyao hesitated.
"It's okay, we're here" As soon as Lai Qiyao said this, she had no reason to refuse.
It didn’t take long for the two of them to arrive around the crowd. As they got closer and closer, the sound of passionate and powerful music could be heard in their ears.
The song played inside just reached its climax at this time.
"Faceup'causeyou'reaNatural
Abeatingheartofstone
Yougottabesocold
"
Hearing this made the two little girls' hearts surge.
"Gu Wei's [Natural] sings so well, is it some kind of professional band?" Lai Qiyao was confused.
After struggling to squeeze in for a few steps, the two of them could basically see the performers in the circle.
"Wow! I thought this voice sounded so familiar, but it turned out to be Gu Wei. It's incredible!" A good friend shouted in surprise when he saw the appearance of the singer inside.
The foreigners listening to the song frowned and looked at the two of them.
Seeing this, Lai Qiyao quickly pulled her good friend. The other party also realized her gaffe and covered her mouth in embarrassment.
At around 10 o'clock in the evening, in the villa where Hua Shaotuan lived, several girls were chatting in the living room and waiting for news about the boys.
Gu Wei and the others walked for more than 3 hours. Jiang Shuying was worried at first, but later Song Zuer and Meng Ziyi were also a little anxious. Only Nazha drank hot water slowly, with no waves on her face. , she has absolute confidence in Gu Wei.
“Look, they are back!” Song Zuer looked up towards the yard and suddenly caught a glimpse of several figures coming in from the gate.
Several girls saw this and hurried out to greet him.
Meanwhile, the four people from Gu and Wei strode in with great satisfaction, especially Jing Bairan, whose chin was almost raised to the sky. His expression was like saying, "Come and praise me!" ’
"How are you doing?" Jiang Shuying still wanted to find out what the boys were doing.
“Here, Jiang Jiang, here is 3,941 Australian dollars. In addition to your 1,000 yuan capital, the extra 2,941 yuan is enough for us to eat and drink in the next few days!”
Jing Bairan took out the money from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Shuying.
"What are you doing, getting so much money in 3 hours?" Jiang Shuying took the money with a confused look on his face.
For everyone in Hua Shao Tuan, this 3,941 Australian dollars is nothing, but now they are recording "Hua Shao". With the intervention of the program team, they have to rely on themselves for everything.
In this foreign land, unfamiliar with the place, Jiang Shuying couldn't think of anything that could make money so quickly.
"It's just making money, it's not a big deal, it all depends on our talents!" Jing Bairan walked in and sat on the sofa in the living room, his expression full of pride.
Jiang Shuying ignored him and looked at the others in confusion.
Zhang Ruoyun smiled and told them about the experience of several people performing in the small square of the Sydney Opera House.
“We came out of the Opera House in the afternoon and saw the street performers over there. Are they so profitable? They made more than 10,000 yuan in just a short time?”
Jiang Shuying was a little in disbelief.
“It’s not that exaggerated. Gu Wei played and sang a very nice new song, which attracted almost all the people there to our place. In the end, we collaborated on a few more songs, which was quite effective. .
But even so, I later looked at my income of just over 1,000 Australian dollars, and I didn’t have much left over to rent musical instruments. The foreigner was not as generous as I imagined.”
“Then. "You"
"I don't know who finally spread the news. A group of Chinese students in Sydney came, most of them are fans of Gu Wei. They are called enthusiastic
If we hadn't stopped him, the money would have been doubled! "
Zhang Ruoyun explained with a smile.
After he finished speaking, Meng Ziyi and Song Zuer both looked at Gu Wei with admiration. The corners of Naza's lips were raised, as if everything was under her control. As expected.
Jiang Shuying looked at Gu Wei and then at the other three boys.
"Thank you for your hard work. You have paid a lot for our trip!" ”
Gu Wei took a sip from the hot water Nazha handed him. He had just sung a few songs and his throat was indeed a little dry.
"Jiang Jiang, please collect the money. Since we have enough funds now, we can have fun next time. Let's all go to bed early."
A few people agreed and were about to get up and leave. Zhang Ruoyun smiled. Raise your hand.
"Well, I suggest that we have a drink to celebrate that we have perfectly solved the difficulties of traveling in Australia."
Gu Wei was a little speechless. He knew that Zhang Ruoyun, an alcoholic, would find various reasons to take a sip. .
Finally, everyone took out a bottle of white wine and toasted to celebrate.
This season’s Hua Shao Tuan has no conflicts, and there are very few conflicts between members. Everyone works together to overcome one difficulty after another, and everyone enjoys the happiness brought by this trip. .
The next chapter of Hua Shao is over!
