Chapter 292: Shocking Jakarta

November 4, Singapore Changi Airport.

The warm autumn sun couldn't dry Xu Chen's silence, and he looked at the cheap junior sister Stefanie Sun who was dressed in red like fire.

Xu Chen smiled and touched the dog's head, feeling funny and pleased at the same time: "Ah Stefanie, it's not in vain that I worked hard and burned the midnight oil for 12 hours to compose a new song for your first album in life. Practice hard and I will take the exam in Taipei." oh."

When Warner's Stefanie Sun made her debut in the music industry, Zhou Jianbin begged Xu Chen in a very grumpy manner, hoping that Xu Chen could tailor a new song for the cheap junior sister.

Talk.

Zhou Jianbin really attaches great importance to Stefanie Sun.

As soon as they signed the contract, they found Singapore's number one musicians Li Si Song and Li Wei Song, and Bao Dao's ace producers Bao Brothers produced Stefanie Sun's album of the same name.

The album release date was set very early. We signed the contract in November 1998 and released the album in March 1999!

It’s Zhou Jianbin.

You are not human!

If Xu Chen hadn't had a 2-point profit margin because of the song Tianheihei, he would have to protest for the cheap junior sister, now...

Liang Jingru has the courage, Stefanie Sun, how can you sleep? You are not promising at all!

Sun Zizi, the ultimate pal in the Chinese music world, is completely unaware of her heavy music career. She is youthful and lively, with her legs raised high.

"Long live!" the girl exclaimed excitedly, holding her big white teeth and shouting happily: "Wow, senior brother, you are so annoying! Ah, I want to see my new song!"

The senior brother worked hard and worked 12 hours at night to compose the new song. Stefanie Sun's eyes were slightly red, the senior brother was so good to her!

"Calm down." Xu Chen dug into his trouser pocket and took out a crumpled tissue, which was a little moist.

He sighed and said, "Junior sister, senior brother stayed up too late last night and could only drink tea to refresh himself, but the tea was spilled."

"Pfft." Fan Wenfang looked angrily at Xu Chen, her pink cheeks stained with red.

Her life is not easy.

"Senior brother, thank you for your hard work!" Stefanie Sun's eyes were slightly red. Senior brother burned the midnight oil and worked for 12 hours.

I can only rely on tea to cheer me up. Senior brother is so kind to me!

Thinking of Xu Chen going to Indonesia, Stefanie Sun burst into tears and said, "Brother Wu, I specially wore red to see him off. Brother, please be safe. Brother Wu, thank you."

"I will definitely work hard!"

Stefanie Sun looked determined: "I want to be a real singer like my senior brother and concubine!"

"Yeah, I'm ambitious!" Xu Chen complained that his cute little junior sister turned out to be a die-hard fan of Concubine, a traitor!

Fan Wenfang glared at Xu Chen. Not only do stinky men have many tricks, but they also have many tricks. If you continue, you are just a junior sister, you are your love sister!

"Sister, don't miss me too much."

Xu Chen gently hugged Sister Fan in his arms, and breathed hot breath into Sister Fan's ear: "Sister, I didn't take a shower or wash it off yesterday. It smells a bit sour."

Fan Wenfang glared at Xu Chen and spat angrily: "If you stay with me for the whole night, of course you have to smell a little bit of sweat. It's sour. It's so stinky that you don't have bad thoughts."

"No wonder my sister insists that the green mountains are not relaxed, and her roots are still in the broken rocks."

Xu Chen exhaled hot breath: "Sister turns out to like smelly things."

"Shameless." Fan Wenfang gently hugged Xu Chen with her beautiful arms.

Her delicate eyebrows were furrowed, with a worried expression: "Achen, when you go to Indonesia and Malaysia, you should pay attention to safety and don't show off."

"Sister, don't worry, nothing will happen."

Xu Chen pointed at the dozen or so bodyguards, "Lao Zhou's security work is pretty awesome!"

How can it not be awesome!

Zhou Jianbin found a security company in Singapore and hired 15 bodyguards, all retired special forces, to protect Xu Chen's personal safety 24 hours a day.

With this level of security.

Xu Chen feels that his safety level in Indonesia and Malaysia is quite high, unless someone makes a cold shot, but even in the chaotic Southeast Asia.

Guns are rare things. I have never won a prize of more than 10 yuan when buying lottery tickets. It is a small probability event like being shot coldly. Why should it be my turn?

Xu Chen said so!

Sister Fan was gentle and considerate, Xu Chen held her in her arms and cared for her carefully, thinking about trying Sister Fan's Chang'e next time.

Last night I asked Sister Fan to cosplay Xiao Longnu, Xu Chen...

airplane.

Zhou Jianbin reported to Xu Chen the Southeast Asia itinerary.

Xu Chen has a busy schedule.

On November 10th, Japan's Red and White Song Festival will be held. Xu Chen will arrive in Tokyo two days in advance to participate in the pre-training test of the Red and White Song Festival.

Full calculation.

Xu Chen's trip to Southeast Asia lasted for 4 days. In 4 days, Xu Chen had to travel to iconic cities in Indonesia and Malaysia to participate in album marketing activities.

The first station.

Xu Chen came to Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia.

Kuala Lumpur is a popular city for travel in Southeast Asia. It has a tropical rainforest climate, spring-like weather all year round, warm weather all year round, sunshine and sandy beaches, making the city feel lazy.

pity.

Affected by the Southeast Asian music scene incident, Kuala Lumpur, the center of the conflict, was also devastated, with ruins and confused and empty people scattered on the streets.

Wandering aimlessly in the city, like a wandering ghost.

"Mr. Xu, that is Ye Naya's home." Zhou Jianbin pointed at the dark wall outside the car window and sighed.

He said to Xu Chen: "Ms. Ye's ancestors are all from Fujian Province. Her grandfather's generation came to Malaysia to start a canteen business. The accident happened..."

"Old Zhou, stop talking." Xu Chen interrupted Zhou Jianbin with a solemn expression.

subject to uncontrollable influences.

He couldn't describe in detail what he saw and heard in Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, but well, it was all in the newspapers. To say it was tragic would be an understatement!

The tuck shop burned down.

Xu Chen met the relatives of fan Ye Naya in a shack built haphazardly on the remains of the canteen.

Zhou Jianbin said with a heavy tone: "Mr. Xu, this is Miss Ye's father, this is Miss Ye's mother, and this is Miss Ye's little sister."

"Ms. Ye's eldest brother works in the National Guard. The situation in the Guard has been tense recently. He has never come back from vacation."

Ye Naya's mother held a little girl with clear and bright eyes in her arms.

When he saw a large group of people coming in, he looked frightened and nervous. He subconsciously protected his daughter in his arms and looked at his husband who was carrying a stick.

"Mr. Ye."

Zhou Jianbin said: "We have met before. I am Zhou Jianbin from Warner, and this is Mr. Xu Chenxu. He wants to come and see Miss Ye."

Before Ye's father and Ye's mother had time to speak, the little girl with her eyes buried in her mother's arms stared at Xu Chen innocently and romantically, timidly shouting: "You are Xu Chen, dragon...long..."

The little girl was mumbling for a long time, biting her nails, but couldn't say anything. She stared with big eyes and patted her mother's arm anxiously.

"Descendant of the Dragon, I am Xu Chen, and I sing this song." Xu Chen squatted down and squeezed the little girl's tender hand.

Smiling softly: "Little sister, my name is Xu Chen, what is your name?"

"My name is Ye Naya." The little girl called out timidly, with a milky voice: "My sister always listens to your songs, and she also said she would go to China to watch your concert."

As the little girl talked, her eyes became moist, and she said sadly: "My sister has gone to heaven, but she never comes to see me. My mother said that my name is my sister's name, and that she has always been with me."

The little girl buried her head in her mother's arms, pouted, and said aggrievedly: "Mom lied to me, my sister is not in heaven, my sister is dead."

Xu Chen was silent and stunned for a moment. He squeezed the little girl's hand and said gently: "Mom didn't lie to you. My sister is in the sky. She has always been with Naya."

Father Ye and Mother Ye were very grateful to Xu Chen.

Their savings were all in the canteen. After it was burned down, they had nothing left. Warner Zhou Jianbin, under Xu Chen's instruction, donated a lot of money one after another.

It’s not just Ye’s father and Ye’s mother.

Warner has a rescue center in Kuala Lumpur that can provide hot water, food and shelter. The money is from Xu Chen’s album proceeds, and Warner is entrusted with the rescue.

this matter.

For Warner, it is also a major matter of brand building. Zhou Jianbin does not dare to fool around and does everything himself.

In the courtyard of the canteen.

Xu Chen met Ye Naya, a high school fan. In the photo, Ye Naya smiles enthusiastically and brightly, and has a beautiful vision for the future. She likes listening to songs, drawing, and cute cartoons.

Xu Chen felt panicked.

Take out the treasured letter from Ye Naya. She is Xu Chen's first fan in the Southeast Asian music scene. It is also Xu Chen who personally received the first letter from a fan.

Reading Ye Naya's letter, looking at the white letter paper, the cartoon version of Xu Chen, Xu Chen also invited Ye Naya to participate in his first concert.

Ye Naya missed the appointment.

But.

Xu Chen did not miss the promise. He was sitting in the small yard with his guitar in hand. The white clouds in the sky floated away leisurely, leaving shadows on the ground.

Xu Chen sang.

In his first album, his second album, and his third album, the guitar accompaniment was very simple, but Xu Chen sang very carefully.

Qianqian hum.

Sing slowly.

His first concert, he sang to the only audience.

Zhou Jianbin wiped his wet eyes, stopped the assistant who was taking the photo, and sighed to the assistant: "You can't disturb this beauty. This is a date between a singer and a fan, the most pious and equally precious date."

Xu Chen is different from other singers in the Chinese music scene.

Always doing some inexplicable but heart-warming things, Zhou Jianbin was stunned, looking at Xu Chen who was playing and singing by himself, Warner could do without a king.

But.

Warner can't live without a legend.

Father Ye and Mother Ye wiped the tears from their eyes, touched and held hands. The little girl in her mother's arms stared at the big brother who was singing with her bright eyes.

The little girl was familiar with the songs he sang, and her elder sister often listened to them. The little girl opened her lips and followed the singing, humming in a milky voice: "I know/those summers/just like you, I can't come back/I have I will no longer look forward to anyone/with full expectations/I know/there are too many regrets in this world every day/”

"So/hello/goodbye/"

Night gradually falls to the west.

Xu Chen stroked the guitar, tickled the tip of the little girl's fair nose, and smiled softly: "Yana, you sing so beautifully. I'm going to attend my brother's concert then. Can I leave the guitar to Naya? Maybe Naya will too." I will miss my sister through singing.”

"Okay." The little girl made a sweet sound, chewed her fingernails, and smiled innocently and romantically: "Brother, when I grow up, I will go to his concert."

Xu Chen decided to help Ye Naya study.

Her musical talent is really good, and she can hum the right melody just by following Xu Chen.

If the little girl is really destined to be associated with music when she grows up, Xu Chen will always support her and let her be unfettered and enjoy the sunshine.

Xu Chen left no money.

He left his phone number, Ruo Ye’s father. If Ye Mu needs help, contact him at any time. Xu Chen may not be able to take care of everyone in the world, but he wants to.

It’s great to be able to take care of one person!

November 5.

Xu Chen performed a charity show at the Chinese Mall in Kuala Lumpur. Affected by the Southeast Asian music scene incident, the Chinese Mall was closed and now it is in a mess. The mall is in no mood to clean up.

Fans who came to participate in Xu Chen's Southeast Asian fan meeting did not care about the environment and sat on the ground.

It seemed like a dark and cold night, sitting around a bonfire, hugging each other to absorb warmth.

Xu Chen sang songs from his album.

He did not sing songs like Descendants of the Dragon and As Wish. Scars do not need fire and swords. Spring breeze and rain can bring pain and live bravely and hard.

He sang Tomorrow Will Be Better, Teresa Teng's The Moon Represents My Heart, and Jade Belt Bridge.

Until this moment.

Xu Chen suddenly realized that the songs in his album were all decadent music. There were too few songs that could bring courage, strength, and inspiration to people.

Fortunately.

Fans don't care. Seeing Xu Chen standing in a ruined shopping mall, singing Chinese songs, is one of the few peace in the chaotic life for fans.

Fortunately.

Xu Chen sang "Insects Fly" at midnight.

This song is the promotional song of Fengyun. The Cantonese version is called "Double Pairs". The lyrics are like gurgling water, bringing comfort and peace to people.

"The dark sky is hanging low/The bright stars are following/"

"Insects are flying/Insects are flying/Who are you missing/"

"The stars in the sky are crying/The roses on the ground are withering/The cold wind blows/The cold wind blows/As long as you are with me/"

This song reminds people of their loved ones and warmth.

The lyrics are simple and the melody is catchy. Xu Chen sang it twice, and the fans couldn't help but sing with longing and nostalgia: "The dark sky is hanging low/The bright stars are following/"

The reporter who followed Warner's promotion took a camera and took a photo of Xu Chen singing.

Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru, Penang, Xu Chen is like a hurricane, shuttling between cities in Malaysia.

Almost every time he arrives at a place.

Local Chinese people spontaneously participate in his fan meeting, and singing "Insects Flying" is a conservative program of the fan meeting.

November 8.

Xu Chen came to the last stop of the Southeast Asian album promotion, Jakarta, Indonesia.

Jakarta is a very beautiful city.

Also known as the Coconut City, the temperature in November is not cold, the sky is as blue as a mirror, the white clouds are like cotton, and it is peaceful and warm.

Xu Chen's mood is particularly heavy.

He has seen many cities in Southeast Asia, but only Jakarta brings him silence and melancholy. Living in a peaceful era, he is full of depression.

Warner distributor in Jakarta.

They were very enthusiastic and surprised that Xu Chen could come. They shook Xu Chen's hand and kept saying, "Mr. Xu, welcome, welcome. It is an honor for Jakarta that you can come to Jakarta."

"Mr. Xu, we have arranged a fan meeting, in the largest shopping mall in Jakarta."

Xu Chen appeared in the mall under the protection of bodyguards.

There were huge crowds of people inside and outside. When they saw Xu Chen appear, the fans in Jakarta kept greeting him happily: "Xu Chen! Xu Chen!"

Jakarta is the city most affected by the Southeast Asian music incident.

It is also the city with the best sales of Xu Chen's album in Southeast Asia. People have a sense of belonging. The singing of Xu Chen's "Descendants of the Dragon" gave the fans in Jakarta the confidence to persist.

Similarly.

Xu Chen protested against the Southeast Asian music incident at the Asian Superstar Concert in Tokyo. The fans in Jakarta were deeply inspired. Their support for Xu Chen was recognized with the blood-red rain.

Xu Chen sang the album songs.

In the Southeast Asian music scene, he rarely sang songs like Descendants of the Dragon and Serving the Country with Loyalty. However, when he came to Jakarta, Xu Chen sang Descendants of the Dragon for the first time!

"There is a river in the far east/His ​​name is the Yangtze River/"

As soon as Xu Chen started singing, his deafening voice resounded throughout the mall, and fans shouted loudly: 'There is a river in the far east/His ​​name is the Yellow River/'

"I grew up on other people's land/When I grow up, I will be a descendant of the dragon/"

Suddenly.

Xu Chen's scalp was numb, and a chill ran down his cervical vertebrae, instantly making him sweat profusely. Almost subconsciously, Xu Chen hunched his back, lowered his head, and tried his best to curl up his body.

"Bang!"

In the crowd, a young man wearing a black cap, carrying a shotgun, and with dark skin, pulled the trigger at Xu Chen.

White smoke filled the air.

The smell of gunpowder instantly stimulated the adrenal glands, and the young man said with an awkward and weird accent: 'Oriental people, take your dragon to death! ’

Zhou Jianbin was on the stage.

He heard the gunshot.

He turned pale with fear, and almost immediately shouted to the chaotic mall: "Quick! Check if Xu Chen is in trouble!"

"Call the police!"

"Bodyguard, bodyguard..." Zhou Jianbin's eyes were bloodshot, and he almost shouted: "Mr. Xu must not be in trouble, where is Li Chengbing, fuck!" (End of this chapter)
