Chapter 506 Opening of the Ocean Rhyme Music Festival

With the barrage of advertisements, people throughout the Lianwan area gained a deep understanding of the music festival, making it almost a household name.

Anyway, we've done everything we could and should do. The final number of attendees at this music festival will depend on the actual situation.

Tickets for the first show of the inaugural Maritime Music Festival went on sale at 1 p.m. on June 18.

Regarding ticket prices, after careful consideration, Liang Liang made some changes, reducing the daytime ticket price by two yuan.

Today is Sunday, and the turnout is quite good, but the audience would probably be much smaller on other days. Lower ticket prices might make up for it.

The ticket price for the night show has also been reduced by one yuan, down to seven yuan.

After all, this is the first music festival in Lianwan City. Expanding its influence is the most correct choice. Lowering the ticket price by one yuan might attract more people, which would expand the influence. As for making money, we can talk about that in two years.

Once the music festival gains a reputation, the amount of money from advertising sponsorships will be an astonishing figure, and ticket revenue will become secondary.

The performance officially starts at 2 p.m., with one hour for ticket sales.

Starting from May 1st this year, weekends have become a part of people's lives.

Sunday the 18th was filled with people strolling around, and a significant proportion of them came to Haiyun Conservatory of Music. Starting at 12:30, people began to line up at the ticket booth in front of the conservatory.

At 2 p.m., the first Haiyun Music Festival kicked off in the courtyard of Haiyun Conservatory of Music.

The weather today is quite kind; it's a cloudy day with no scorching sun.

A rather magnificent stage was erected on the north side of the music school courtyard.

The rectangular building with a roof ridge is two stories high, with a fully enclosed stage made of steel pipe frame, and two smaller stages extending from both sides, making it look magnificent and grand.

The stage alone cost over 10,000 yuan to build, and the lighting and fireworks cost nearly 30,000 to 40,000 yuan.

However, these items are not disposable consumer goods. If they are properly stored after being used up this year, they can be used for several years, so spending a little more money is not a loss.

At 2:00 PM, Liang Liang, the organizer of the Haiyun Music Festival, delivered the opening speech on stage.

Looking at the sea of ​​faces in the audience, Liang Liang felt extremely happy.

According to the size of the music school's courtyard,

"Distinguished guests and friends! Fellow citizens, brothers and sisters of Lianwan City, good afternoon! We gather from all corners of the world to celebrate the prosperity of our rock music scene and guide it onto a healthy and bright path. Our Haiyun Dance Hall is hosting this music festival, and I now solemnly announce: the Haiyun Music Festival is now open."

After someone in the crowd shouted "Bravo!", thunderous applause erupted.

"In addition to dozens of local bands from our Lianwan area, this maritime music festival will also feature eleven bands from other provinces and regions. There are young bands eager to prove themselves on stage, as well as well-known bands that have made a name for themselves in China. It can be said that this is a grand rock event. Over the next five days, hundreds of rock songs will be performed here. Let's wish this event a complete success!"

Liang Liang led the applause.

With such a music festival being held, it was natural for Lianwan, as a leader in the cultural and sports department, to take the stage and say a few words. After the deputy director of the cultural and sports bureau gave a few words of encouragement, the Haiyun Music Festival officially began.

The first two performances had to be able to liven up the atmosphere. The Hanmei Duo took the stage, and the turntable played a powerful dance track. Xu Mei then came on stage carrying a cool-looking, uniquely shaped electric guitar.

Liang Liang was dumbfounded. What did this young woman mean by bringing an electric guitar onto the stage?

What's the point of having a guitar with a DJ playing? Is it just for show?

Liang Liang was right; Xu Mei really did bring an electric guitar onto the stage just for show.

She believes that the image of a beautiful girl carrying a beautiful electric guitar on stage is still memorable.

The first song by the Hanmei duo was "Help Help Help".

Xu Mei wore black leggings that perfectly accentuated her golden ratio figure, and a loose navy blue blouse resembling georgette, along with a K-shaped electric guitar.

As soon as this outfit was revealed, the young men in the audience howled like wolves, shaking their heads and swaying to the rhythm of the music.

After honing her skills by singing in nightclubs for the past few days, Xu Mei's singing has improved considerably, and her somewhat rustic voice now has a unique charm.

After the song ended, thunderous applause erupted.

Then she sang "Shalala".

After finishing the two songs, Xu Mei left the stage with a smile amidst thunderous applause and whistles, glancing at Liang Liang as she passed by.

This left Liang Liang speechless, and she glared at her fiercely.

After the warm-up dance music, the first performance of the Haiyun Music Festival officially began.

Fourteen bands will be performing this afternoon, and they will play around twenty-eight songs.

After the Hanmei duo finished their performance, the first band to take the stage was Qimingxing, a local band from Lianwan City. They performed two of their own songs, "Stars in the Night Sky" and "Rose".

The order in which the bands perform is not determined by their fame, but by a draw.

Whether they're big names or not, whoever gets drawn gets to perform, and all the bands participating in the music festival will follow this rule.

The bands on stage knew when they would be on stage, but the audience was a bit confused. One show featured a band they had never heard of, but the next show featured a well-known band.

But regardless of whether they were famous or unknown bands, every band that took the stage received enthusiastic applause from the audience.

There was no dedicated host for this music festival; it was just one song after another.

Therefore, the show progressed very quickly, with various styles of music taking turns to perform, leaving the audience in awe and thoroughly entertained.

At five o'clock, the last program of the daytime show began.

As the host band, Blue Shark naturally didn't need to draw lots, and no one would object to them performing last.

"Are you happy to see us on stage?" Liang Liang asked loudly to the audience while standing in front of the microphone, bass slung over his arm.

"Happy!"

"Your happiness is our greatest motivation. It's almost time to finish dinner, so let's get straight to the point and start singing. After we finish, we'll go for drinks. Today we're going to sing a brand new song, and we hope you'll enjoy it."

As soon as Liang Liang finished speaking, the band started playing, and Xu Mei and Lin Hanrui's DJs also joined in, making the accompaniment of the song even more three-dimensional.

Liang Liang, microphone in hand, began to sing with all her heart:

The impulse I had while still dreaming

Transparent flames filled the sky.

Sleeping, bewildered eyes witness the world changing.

This is the full face as seen in the mirror.

I will change all this when I reach the end of the world…
