Chapter 3126 3128 [Street performers]
"Okay, if the singing is not good, please give me some advice." Xiang Nan laughed, then picked up the guitar, and began to play and sing by himself.
"Give me a second,
Ineed to get my story straight
My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the Empire State
…
Tonight
Weare young
Solet’s set the world on fire
Wecanburnbrighterthanthesun"
He sang the single "weareyoung" released by the independent band FUN. in 2011.
This song combines indie pop, alternative rock, breakbeat and other music styles, with simple and catchy lyrics.
As a result, it was very popular after it was launched, and reached the top of the music charts in nine countries including the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Austria, Ireland, Israel, Portugal, Iceland, and Poland.
In the United States, the song ranked No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart on March 17, 2012, and won the championship for six weeks, becoming the first Fun. band to top the chart single.
In 2013, the song also won the "Best Song of the Year" award from the 55th Grammy Awards. It can be seen that this song is indeed not bad, whether it is popular or artistic, it has reached a very high level.
…
After listening to this, Mary was very emotional.
She didn't expect Xiang Nan to be so talented, to sing so beautifully, so passionately, and so shockingly, that she couldn't help being moved.
"It's great, it's really great. You will succeed, I'm 100% sure." She clapped her hands and said to Xiang Nan with a smile.
"Thank you." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled.
The two looked at each other. Suddenly, Xiang Nan dropped the guitar in his arms, and Mary got up and threw herself into his arms.
The two immediately kissed together, followed by thunder and fire.
Turning the other day, Xiang Nan got up early and warmed up milk and toast.
Mary got up, washed up, and had breakfast with Xiang Nan.
"Thank you, I was very happy last night." After breakfast, she said.
"You're welcome, I was very happy last night too." Xiang Nan laughed.
"Then I'm going to work, bye." Mary said immediately.
Xiang Nan nodded and sent her out the door.
He knew that although the two of them had already had a relationship, they were not considered boyfriend and girlfriend, at most they just had a crush on each other.
It's like being in a bar, after men and women see each other, they find a place to have a good time. After waking up, they all went their separate ways.
It has nothing to do with love, it has to do with desire.
Xiang Nan has no illusions, he can get Mary done in one go.
After all, she is a spiritual gypsy girl. She has been wandering since she was twenty years old. She has experienced a lot and seen a lot.
Although in the film, she and Byrne did not get along for more than five days, it seemed that it was not enough to create such a solid love.
But in fact, they have experienced two killer chases and one police roundup together. It can be said that they have a life-threatening friendship. Ordinary lovers don't have so many thrilling experiences in their lifetime.
For women who are eager for passion, eager for adventure, and unwilling to be ordinary, it has great lethality.
In James Cameron's classic movie "True Lies", the hero Harry's wife Helen is almost cheated by Simon, a liar who pretends to be a secret agent.
According to Simon, he used the trick of pretending to be a secret agent to attract women, which was a perfect hit.
Although Xiang Nan's real identity is more legendary than that of an agent, his ostensible identity is just a wandering entertainer. He is attractive to Mary, but not much.
So he needs to work hard to chase Mary.
…
After sending Mary away, Xiang Nan went to apply for a street performer license.
In European and American countries, street performances are not just what you want to perform, you must apply for a relevant performance license. Taxes must also be paid in accordance with the regulations, as well as management fees.
Otherwise, they will be warned, expelled or arrested by the police.
Xiang Nan's real identity has not yet come out, so he can only apply with a fake identity temporarily.
Fortunately, when applying for a street performance license, the verification of identity is not strict. They place more emphasis on the talents of applicants.
If you don't have enough talent, it is impossible to apply for a performance license.
For example, the New York subway holds an audition every year, called "New York Subway Music Audition". From artists from all over the world, only 24 groups of artists are selected to perform in the subway station.
There are more than 300 groups of performers competing for this qualification every year, which shows that the competition is quite fierce.
Fortunately, Xiang Nan is versatile, can play musical instruments, sing and dance, and can speak many foreign languages... So he successfully conquered the interviewer and successfully obtained a performance license.
…
That night, after waiting for Mary to get off work, Xiang Nan specially showed her the performance license.
"Look, I have applied for a performance license. I can officially perform on the street tomorrow." He said with a smile.
"Congratulations." Mary forced a smile.
"What's the matter with you, what happened?" Seeing this, Xiang Nan asked quickly.
"Nothing." Mary waved her hands.
Actually, it was because she was not satisfied with the job she found. She works as a waiter in a restaurant, and the boss is very harsh on these employees. Today, she was almost scolded by the boss because she accidentally knocked over a cup.
If it weren't for the difficulty of finding a job now, she really wanted to quit on the spot. Because of this, her mood is naturally not high.
"Okay, I just made sausage, do you want some?" Xiang Nan asked.
Mary nodded, "Okay, excuse me."
She has been busy all day, tired and hungry, but she doesn't want to cook. Xiang Nan's proposal was exactly what she wanted.
Xiang Nan then invited her into the house and brought her freshly made sauerkraut sausage.
Germans have been fond of sausages since ancient times. There are more than 1,500 types of German sausages, more than South Korean kimchi.
Almost every region in Germany has its own unique sausage recipe. Xiang Nan chose the most famous Pinkel sausage in Hannover.
Pinkel is a smoked sausage, mainly made of fat pork, pork leg, lard and oat grains, so it has a strong aroma and a strong mouthfeel. After frying, it is a perfect match with sweet mustard and sauerkraut.
And this hometown dish was just right for Mary's appetite, so she ate it very smoothly, and finally half of the anger she suffered during the day was eliminated.
“My boss is really disgusting, he is not human, and he always finds ways to deduct our wages. As long as we make a mistake, he will hold on to it.
I know, he just wants to drive us away without paying us. After drinking a few glasses of wine, Mary opened up to Xiang Nan and complained loudly, "Damn guy, I really hope he is unlucky." "
Xiang Nan nodded with a smile when he heard this, "God will punish him."
