Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry - Chapter 573
c573 Four old men with a combined age of over 200 years old
“I have no objection.” Yu Dongqing smiled.
“Me? I don’t have any objections.” Seeing everyone looking at him, Liu Yimin immediately replied: “I am alone now. Dongqing has a child to pick up and drop off. As for me, I am completely idle. Is it just you, Du Hui?”
He said and looked at Du Hui.
Among the four, Du Hui is the busiest, currently teaching and raising graduate students.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Du Hui said with a smile: “You three are ready to go out, how can I hold you back?”
Having said this, he pondered for a moment: “Well, this semester I will ask the two doctoral students I am teaching to graduate and get out! I won’t be teaching students next semester, so I will have more time.”
“That’s great!” Zhang Yang laughed after hearing this: “There’s still half a year left, so let’s get ready and train hard. Dongqing, you have to write a few more new songs! Let’s visit a few more cities this time!”
“The song doesn’t matter, it’s just your body?” Yu Dongqing was a little worried.
Zhang Yang is fat, has high blood pressure, and has a bad heart. Yu Dongqing is worried that his body can’t bear it.
“I said, I will take good care of my body in the past six months. From today on, I will not smoke or drink!” Zhang Yang immediately expressed his stance, and smiled again after saying:
“Besides, if I don’t go out for a walk now, if one day suddenly happens, wouldn’t it be a lifelong regret?”
“What nonsense are you talking about?! Which one of us won’t live to be eighty or ninety? When it’s the 40th or 50th anniversary of the establishment of Qingmanglu, we will still be able to sing!” Liu Yimin feigned anger.
“Yes, yes! We can all live a long life!” Zhang Yang immediately changed his tone: “Now let’s figure out which cities we should go to? As for the tour route, I propose that we go to Harbin.”
Du Hui laughed after hearing this.
“Oh, your hometown? Then I have to go to my hometown, Changsha.”
“Xi’an.” Yu Dongqing immediately agreed.
“Yimin, please stop talking, Yanjing will definitely not be able to escape!” Zhang Yang said enthusiastically: “Let’s walk from south to north, from east to west, and sing while walking!”
“The first stop is Harbin!”
“The last stop will be in Kunming, right?”
The four of them discussed while drinking tea until the sun turned west.
In order to celebrate the 30th anniversary of its establishment, Qingmanglu Band is going on a nationwide tour again!
This explosive news spread all over the Internet.
In fact, this news was not announced by the studio on its official Weibo, but Zhang Yang could not help but reveal it on his personal Weibo.
According to Yu Dongqing’s idea, we should make some preparations first before making an announcement at the appropriate time. However, seeing fans rushing to his Weibo for confirmation,
I had no choice but to admit that this was indeed the case.
Everything is in preparation, the specific city has not been completely determined, and the time will be around this fall.
When Mingliang heard Yu Dongqing talking about this, she was happy but also a little worried.
She also likes to listen to the Qingmanglu Band and is also a fan of the band.

“Husband, you said you were planning to travel to more than ten cities. I’m worried about your health.”
After all, Yu Dongqing is already over 50 years old. After such a long and intense tour, she is worried about her partner’s health.
“Don’t worry, I’m in good health.” Yu Dongqing comforted with a smile: “Besides, Yangliu will make the most adequate arrangements. We are singing while walking, so we are not in a hurry.”
From this day on, Yu Dongqing’s life became busier than before, writing songs, training, strengthening physical exercise, abstaining from alcohol, cold and spicy food.
After exercising every morning, I go to the recording studio to write songs, write lyrics and music, and then send the new songs to the group chat for three old friends to comment and practice at the same time.
In the afternoon or evening, go to the Rented Rehearsal Hall at the Left Bank No. 7 Music Base in Haidian for training.
In the evening, we had some late-night snacks together, which was a great time.
“Brother, let me tell you some good news. I have lost ten pounds recently, my blood pressure is normal, and my blood fat is not as high as before! Hey, I feel more energetic!”
In the evening, when the four of them were eating wontons at the night market after training, Zhang Yang looked proud.
“Of course. In the past, when you ate late-night snacks, it was barbecue and skewers, and you enjoyed all kinds of meat. Now you are eating small wontons just like me. After a while, you will be as thin as me.”
It was Du Hui who spoke.
Among the four people, he is the skinniest. He has been like this for decades. No matter how much he eats, he never gains weight.
“Yeah. There’s no comparison. As long as I can be like Holly.”
“Actually, I think fat or thin is not important. Health is the most important, and mentality is the most important.” Yu Dongqing said after taking a sip of wontons.
“Yes, the mentality! Liu Yuxiyun: Since ancient times, autumn has been sad and lonely. I say autumn is better than spring! We are now half old men, but we may not be inferior to those young people!”
Liu Yimin’s words made everyone laugh.
“No wonder you beat the drum so hard, with such a mentality.” Zhang Yang couldn’t help but give a thumbs up.
At the beginning of June, Qingmanglu Band officially announced the details of the concert titled “Singing While Walking – Qingmanglu Band’s 30th Anniversary Tour”.
The tour started on September 4th and was divided into two stages and lasted until April of the following year. It included 16 cities including Yanjing, Harbin, Dalian, Shijiazhuang, Qingdao, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Changsha, etc., all over the north and south of the motherland.
Jokingly known as: Four old men with a combined age of over 200 picked up the guitar again and started their own musical journey.
The songs are basically old songs, but there are also newly created songs.
This news was officially announced by Yu Dongqing Studio on its official WeChat account, and it immediately became a hot search topic. Tickets for the first batch of announced concerts in Harbin, Dalian, Yanjing, Qingdao, and Shanghai were all sold out.
At this time, Yu Dongqing was listening to Yang Liu’s report in his office at the studio.
“So fast?” Yu Dongqing was a little surprised.
“Yeah, I didn’t expect it to be so popular.” Yang Liu pursed his lips and smiled: “According to the information sent by the ticket office, there are young people in their twenties to middle-aged people in their forties and fifties.”
Yu Dongqing nodded after hearing this.
“Also, this is the list of special guests.” Yang Liu handed over another document.
In addition to Guo Xin, Zhang Bao, and Zhao Yawen who are his disciples to some extent, there are also Mesozoic singers such as Tang Guang and Han Chun who are active in the singing world, and even singers such as Wang Jing and Zhou Wei are willing to sing. .
“Wu Jingqi is also here to join in the fun?” Yu Dongqing was angry and funny when she saw the name: “Why are you coming to Yanjing if you can’t be a good rich lady?”
“Ms. Wu called me specifically and said that she would definitely come to Yanjing to sing the song “We Are All People Returning at Night.”
“Okay, you’ll make the arrangements for the special guests. Anyway, it’s just these sixteen cities. We’ll ask for their personal opinions on the specific allocation.”
“OK!”
“Also, Yang Liu, don’t be too tired. You don’t look too good lately.” Yu Dongqing asked with concern.
“I’m fine, I’m in good health.” Yang Liu smiled.
Indeed, Yang Liu has been busy ever since Yu Dongqing decided to conduct a nationwide tour.
They are only responsible for training, including contacting performance organizations that are willing to take over the performance, confirming the venue, performance approval, confirming the specific time, publicity, etc.
Although these tasks are mainly handed over to the organizer Huangdu Media according to the contract, her studio still has to worry about it.
Including the health of the five old men, a medical team was specially hired for this tour to accompany them throughout the tour and pay close attention to their physical conditions.
Nothing should be careless.
On September 1st, the Qingmanglu Band’s national tour concert was officially launched, with the first stop being Harbin.
