Tenant's Secret Love

Chapter 149: Our mini-concert

My proposal was supported by everyone, so we drove to Jumei. On the way, Renee notified the manager of Jumei's operations department, who provided us with temporary venue and power for the music equipment. By the time we arrived, the Jumei operations department had already efficiently prepared the venue for us.

Immediately, Robben, Harlan, and I carried some advertising display stands from the car to the mall to promote the bar. After some simple decoration, there was already a bit of an advertising atmosphere.

While waiting for the band, Renee, Violetta, Natalie, Brittany, and others helped distribute flyers, while CC, Robben, and I tuned our guitars.

As the flyers were distributed, people gradually gathered around us, but the curiosity was not about the bar we were promoting, but about the women handing out the flyers. Even Violetta was recognized by some sharp-eyed customers several times. Although her drama has not yet officially aired, she has already participated in many promotional activities with the crew and has gained some popularity. In the end, she was overwhelmed and had to stop handing out flyers by wearing sunglasses and a mask.

After a while, the other members of the band arrived. Their rock-and-roll outfits attracted a lot of curious glances, and even though they hadn't started playing yet, they had already attracted a lot of onlookers.

The band members were very efficient at setting up and adjusting the equipment, while the rest of us were already discussing who would sing the opening song and what kind of song would fit the theme of the bar.

In the end, we settled on the song "Old Times" as the opening song, and then we all looked at Renee at the same time. Renee looked at us doubtfully and asked, "You mean I'm supposed to sing the opening song?"

Robben nodded and said, 'Your voice is gentle and delicate, and you can sing this sad song with warmth."

I added, 'Jumei is your home ground, so you should sing the first song."

Abner added, "You are the most beautiful woman, and if you sing first, you will attract the most attention!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an instant lull in the conversation. Although the little turtle was telling the truth, there were still so many beautiful women present, and this was not going to lead to any happiness.

Renee was also embarrassed by Abner's words, but fortunately, CC, the king of saving the day, was there. She took Renee's hand and said, "It's just for fun anyway, so just think of it as a way to attract attention."

Robben and I agreed, saying, "Come on, girl, we'll accompany you."

Renee finally nodded and took the guitar CC handed her. Robben played the keyboard, I played the bass, and CC played the accordion. Everyone was on full alert, waiting for Renee, who was destined to become the center of attention.

Renee closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then stood in the center of the makeshift stage. This move excited the staff of Jumei. After all, Renee is the CEO of Jumei, and this performance was a rare opportunity for them to see her. However, they didn't dare get too close, so they leaned over the railings on the second and third floors, discussing and waiting expectantly as Renee began to sing.

Just as we were about to accompany her, Renee gave us a wait-a-minute gesture, then took the microphone off the stand and, after a short silence, said to the onlookers, "Tomorrow is the opening day of the Fifth Season theme music bar. I'm very happy to have this opportunity to recommend this bar to everyone...If if the world is a barren desert, then this bar is a jewel that shines with colorful light in the desert. Although it is very small, it is enough to comfort our weary souls. If life makes you feel heavy, why not come to this bar and sit down, and you might have a different experience...A song called "Old Times" is for everyone!"

Renee finished speaking, put the microphone back on the stand, then closed her eyes and gently plucked the strings of her guitar.

I, however, was a little lost in thought. This woman is really wise and delicate. While everyone else had forgotten to promote the bar, she remembered. And this modest description, although very short, already gives a feeling of tranquility and simplicity, no less than an advertising slogan created by a top copywriter at an advertising agency.

Renee's quiet and warm voice drifted through the shopping mall along with the accompaniment. Her voice seemed to have a magical power to calm people, so that even the originally noisy shopping mall fell silent. Even customers who weren't stopping to shop walked past us very quietly, afraid of disturbing the natural silence.

In the chorus, CC improvised a harmony for Renee, so the whole song took on a nostalgic flavor. It made the listeners feel as if they were traveling through the warmth of spring and the melancholy of autumn. So engrossed were they that they were still a little drunk with emotion when the music gradually stopped.

After the applause died down, I picked up the microphone on the stand and said to the onlookers, "I believe that everyone is so involved not because of the beauty of the singing girl. If it were only because of her beauty, I think the girl would be angry. After all, she is really more than just a pretty face..."

The onlookers burst into a kind of laughter, but Renee gave me a glare and whispered, "You're still being sarcastic!"

Robben was even more talented, and he played a short, light-hearted and humorous soundtrack on the keyboard just right, so that the atmosphere became more lively.

I smiled and continued, "If you like this song and the peaceful power in the singing, then you must not miss the Fifth Season theme music bar, because it will be a wonderful experience, allowing us to enjoy the beauty of the changing seasons in the charm of the music..." After a short pause, I said, "If there are any friends in the audience who are interested in the Fifth Season theme music bar, you can collect a free discount coupon with our staff. With this discount coupon, in addition to enjoying the same amount of discount, you can also get an extra free bottle of beer. I hope you don't miss it!"

After I finished speaking, several Jumei staff members who had been called over by Renee began helping us hand out discount coupons to customers. The scene was orderly, there was no rush or lulls, which proved that the customers who came to Jumei to spend were of a high overall quality, and of course it also matched the characteristics of the target consumer group for the bar. They pay more attention to emotional experiences than material temptations, so the value of the discount coupons is just a prop to make them remember the bar.

...

Renee handed the stage over to someone else after singing a song. In fact, I really appreciate her. As the CEO of Jumei, she not only provides such a high-quality venue, but also doubles as a bar staff member, which is indeed very rare for her position!

In the spirit of "Ladies first," the second song was Brittany's. Brittany didn't hesitate, and immediately took the center of the small stage. She took the microphone from the stand and said to us behind her, "I'm sorry, but I don't play guitar, so I'll need you to accompany me!"

I smiled and said to her, "What song are you going to sing? We're happy to help!"

Brittany gave me a grateful look before falling into thought. After all, this was the second song, and it couldn't be chosen at random. It had to fit the theme of the bar somehow. For example, it would be incongruous to sing a very noisy song.

I waited for Brittany with a look of expectation. Compared to Renee, her vocal and emotional expressiveness was in no way inferior, the only difference being the style.
