Perfect Superstar Chapter 188

Chapter 188 – Bachelor Party

“Cheers!”

Countless glasses were held high, and the golden liquid in the glass swayed with the white foam, exuding flickering bits of light under the bright light . The air was filled with the unique aroma of beer .

The guests who came to the Forget Worries Bar greeted the late Chen Jianhao with a glass of beer, congratulating him on his imminent departure from his single life and entering the hall of marriage .

A famous person once said that only men who have been married and started a family could really understand what responsibility was and to truly mature .

It was also said that marriage was a man’s prison and grave, and from then on the eagle flying against the wind has its wings bound .

Only they knew the joys and sorrows .

But no matter what, friends have gathered here to send their most sincere blessings to the groom-to-be .

To enjoy his last time being single!

Amid laughter and applause, Chen Jianhao drank a full glass of beer .

People are in high spirit when involved in happy event . And Old Boss Chen of Forgot Worries Bar looked several years younger[1] and was full of pride when drinking beer . He didn’t refuse all those who came to offer a toast and congratulate him .

In this evening’s bachelor party, most of the wine tables in the bar was removed and was replaced with long tables filled with all kinds of drinks and refreshments, as well as decorative flowers .

Melodious and lively music echoed in the bar, and waitresses in the snow bunny uniform carried dinner plates and shuttled lightly through the crowd, adding countless joyful atmosphere to the scene .

Compared with the bunny girls in bachelor parties abroad, their costumes were much more conservative, but were cute and beautiful enough .

The absence of striptease girl was also a small benefit for the groom-to-be and his friends .

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Someone knocked on the plate .

When everyone’s attention turned toward him, they saw him quickly jumped onto the stage, turned on the microphone and said, “Dear friends and distinguished guests, I suggest that our soon-to-be bridegroom, Brother Jianhao, to come and perform a show for us, sing or dance, or tell us a joke . What do you say?”

“Yeah!”

Many guys who were always looking for a chance to stir up trouble immediately cheered loudly . And even whistled .

Chen Jianhao was pushed onto the stage .

He said with a wry smile, “Making my old bones sing and dance . Isn’t that killing me? You are too ruthless!”

Chang Wei, the boss of Blue Lotus Bar, directly revealed his background: “Brother Chen, don’t be humble . In the past, you were the famous little prince of rock and roll in the circle . Even if you only have half the skill left now, you can still hold the place down! “

Little Prince of Rock and Roll!

Lu Chen almost spurted the beer out of his mouth .

Imagining the young version of Chen Jianhao, wearing long hair and holding the guitar, singing rock and roll . The picture was simply not too pretty!

Everyone laughed heartily and coaxed one after another: “Sing a song!”

“You, you, you…”

Chen Jianhao pointed angrily at Big Boss Chang and said, “You wait for me!”

The tough words were dropped, and the song still has to be sung .

Chen Jianhao was direct, or maybe he was a little drunk, he called up the Wandering Band .

They collaborated on the classic rock song “Rebirth of Tomorrow” by the Ravens .

The Ravens was a national rock band active in the late 1980s and early 1990s . They have produced a total of three albums, with a total sales volume of more than 20 million, and were regarded as the mainstay of the national rock .

Unfortunately, in September 1993, the lead singer and soul of the Ravens, Gao Yi, accidentally fell off the stage during a concert rehearsal, causing serious skull injury, and eventually died in Chaoyang People’s Hospital . He was only 32 years old .

The unexpected death of Gao Yi was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Chinese Rock . The Ravens, which has been the leading role, never recovered and disbanded two years later, leaving Chinese Rock fans endless grief .

The fall of the Ravens was also the epitome of the decline of Chinese Rock . Due to the rise of commercial pop music, pure rock has been severely affected, the market has continued to shrink, and its influence was getting smaller and smaller .

Some rock singers have gone with the trend and took the initiative to change their overly personal and idealized style to light rock or folk songs, but there were also many rock and roll people who stubbornly defend the final position of Chinese Rock and didn’t bow to the market .

But most of these defenders were unknown .

Up to now, Chinese Rock has become a distant term, and only a very small number of people were still struggling to adhere to it .

The song “Rebirth of Tomorrow” that Chen Jianhao was singing was not only a famous work of the Ravens, but also the pinnacle of Chinese Rock . Any singer who has ever sung rock has sang it!

Lu Chen saw another side of Chen Jianhao from this .

Lu Chen has always had the impression that the owner of Forget Worries Bar was cold and deep, with a bit of shrewdness and unscrupulousness of a businessman, and never easily showed his inner feelings, usually with no expression of joy or anger .

However, Chen Jianhao, a 40-year-old middle-aged man standing on the stage today, was full of passion and righteous ardor, roaring and screaming with the accompaniment of the Wandering Band .

His face was flushed, the veins in his neck and forehead bulged, and his eyes were red, as if it were a burning flame containing endless power!

In terms of singing skills alone, Chen Jianhao wasn’t very good, and even in the high part of the song was still a little broken . But the emotion he put into singing has moved everyone present .

Everyone applauded, or roared with him . The loud sound seemed to be able to overturn the roof!

Lu Chen was among them, and his blood was boiling .

He raised his arm and clenched his fist, and roared at the top of his voice!

“Tomorrow I will be reborn and face youth with no regrets again!”

“Please never forget my real name!”

At the end of the song, the whole audience was boiling!

“Thank you!”

After singing the song “Rebirth of Tomorrow”, Chen Jianhao seemed to have exhausted all his strength .

He was sweating profusely and gasping for breath . He then asked with a smile, “Are you happy? Do you like it? Are you satisfied?

“Happy!” “Like it!” “Satisfied!”

His friends responded loudly . Many of them have never seen this kind of Chen Jianhao . It was very new .

The man who invited Chen Jianhao to sing on stage just now shouted, “Brother Jianhao, take it easy . Remember that you will have a nuptial chamber tomorrow . If you don’t have the strength, sister-in-law will scold us to death!”

Everyone laughed, and the air was filled with joy .

“I’ll remember you!”

Chen Jianhao glared at the culprit and handed the microphone to Qin Hanyang .

“Big Qin, it’s up to you!”

In the bachelor party held in Forget Worries Bar, there was no shortage of singers . There were as many as four or five bands, not to mention the veterans who are in Houhai .

This night was very special, many people would rather earn less money just to rush over to support .

Qin Hanyang had nothing to say . With his brothers in the Wandering Band, he sang the song “in Spring” .

If Lu Chen has become a legend in Houhai circle, then the Wandering Band’s “In Spring” was simply a mythical story, admired and worshiped by countless bar singers!

This song has been a hit on major music websites for a long time, and so far, it still occupied a place on the original music chart . Not to mention that it has dominated the chart for many weeks and has become a phenomenal classic .

Although it wasn’t pure rock, “In Spring” has awakened people’s memory of the glorious time of Chinese Rock . The Wandering Band has become a hottest newcomer in the pop music scene, with invitations to perform reportedly scheduled until next year .

Now, in Forget Worries Bar, where the Wandering Band once rose and struggled, hearing this authentic “In Spring”, many people have a feeling of pride and glory!

And the original creator of “In Spring” was also here .

Everyone didn’t forget Lu Chen . When the Wandering Band finished singing “In Spring”, someone immediately called out his name .

It was a regular customer of Forget Worries Bar .

Counting the time, it hasn’t that been long since Lu Chen left Forget Worries Bar .

But for those regular customers, Lu Chen has been gone for a long time .

They miss this tall and handsome young man, and they miss him sitting on the stage, holding the guitar and singing “You Who Sat Next To Me”, a feeling that couldn’t be felt across the screen .

Everyone knew that Lu Chen’s footsteps would not stop at Forget Worries Bars . They were very happy that Lu Chen could move toward a bigger and more brilliant stage, and wished Lu Chen a bright future .

At the same time, they still hoped to hear Lu Chen’s live performance again .

Today was the best opportunity .

Qin Hanyang spoke into the microphone, “How about inviting the little boss of Forget Worries Bar to sing us a new song? A new song that we haven’t heard before!”

“Yeah!”

Everyone applauded and responded enthusiastically to Qin Hanyang .

For other singers, such a request may be suspected of deliberately embarrassing them .

However Lu Chen…

His amazing talent in songwriting was regarded as an incredible miracle in the circle .

In just a few months, Lu Chen has written more than 20 original songs .

Although some songwriters who are in the peak period of creativity could come up with so many works in such a period of time, no one has ever been like Lu Chen .

What made people speechless the most was that he has a boundless imagination in his creation . His style covered folk songs, light rock, love songs and even theme songs . His music idea seemed to be endless!

In the circle, Lu Chen even has the nickname “Melody Nouveau Riche” .

Therefore, it might be a difficult request for other, but it was obviously justified, reasonable and a must for Lu Chen .

The new song must be an original new work!

“Lu Chen! Lu Chen! Lu Chen!…”

It was unclear who started it, but everyone shouted Lu Chen’s name neatly and loudly .

It was obviously Chen Jianhao’s bachelor party, but it seemed to be Lu Chen’s home court .

But Chen Jianhao didn’t care . Instead, he shouted with everyone, pushing the atmosphere of the scene to the climax!
