Chapter 244 Encounter in the Dance Hall

In the late 1980s, Haizhou was definitely the leader and benchmark in domestic entertainment and nightlife. At that time, ballroom dancing in Zhongjiang was still organized voluntarily by the masses in the open space of the park, but in Haizhou there had already been formal singing and dancing. hall.

In the modern and gorgeously decorated ballroom, the musicians of the resident band are all wearing tights and bell-bottoms, singing popular hits from Hong Kong and Taiwan. On the professional circular dance floor, fashionably dressed men and women are dancing, and the sidelines are colorful. Neon signs and laser lights installed on the roof create a passionate atmosphere for the entire ballroom.

Just like Shen Yunhe said, you really can't get into the karaoke hall without making a reservation. On the first night after arriving in Haizhou, Shen Yunguang and his party were rejected by the karaoke hall, so they took a taxi and went straight to Haizhou. The most fashionable "Southern Cabaret" at the time.

At that time, the Southern Song and Dance Hall had already introduced foreign DJ musicians, and break dancing and disco were the most popular dances in the dance hall at that time. Shen Yunguang, who had never been exposed to break dancing or disco, was dumbfounded as soon as he entered the door of the dance hall. Previously, Shen Yunguang thought that with his reputation as the best ballroom dancer in Zhongjiang, he could be famous in Haizhou, but who knew that he could not even touch the door.

Shen Yunguang, who was standing on the edge of the dance floor, was quickly attracted by a woman in a red dress in the middle of the dance floor. The woman had fair skin and a beautiful face. Her soft limbs were dancing to the powerful music, and she was frivolous. Under the red gauze skirt, her slender waist and long thighs appear and disappear.

Shen Yunguang was dumbfounded. In Shen Yunguang's mind, the music in the ballroom disappeared, the dancing crowd disappeared, and only the woman was dancing in the whole world. Shen Yunguang's body moved, and he followed The woman's rhythm, raising her hands, throwing her feet, sliding, and shaking her head. After all, he had some talent and basics in dancing, and soon he slowly learned to be decent.

Shen Yunguang spent the whole night chasing the woman in red, imitating her dancing posture and her rhythm. Later, the woman in red finally noticed him, came over to hold his hand, guided his steps, and corrected his By the last song of the dance that day, he could already keep up with the woman's rhythm and dance with her.

The music stopped suddenly, the laser lights stopped rotating, and the lights in the ballroom dimmed. The two stood face to face, smiling.

"What's your name?" The woman spoke in Cantonese. Shen Yunguang stared in confusion and shook his head.

"What's your name?" the woman said again in blunt Mandarin. This time Shen Yunguang understood, he smiled and answered in Zhongjiang dialect:

"My name is Shen Yunguang."

The woman frowned and barely understood what Shen Yunguang said. Then she asked:

"Are you from the north?"

"Come from Zhongjiang River." Shen Yunguang also learned to speak broken Mandarin.

"You have quite a talent for dancing."

"Hey, it's okay, let's skip the ballroom dance."

"Wow, you can dance ballroom? Which ones do you do?"

"Waltz, blues, and tango."

"That's great. How about we change the venue and dance again?"

Shen Yunguang was eager for the woman in red's advice. He nodded quickly and said:

"I just arrived in Haizhou and I'm not familiar with it."

"It's okay, just follow me."

After the woman finished speaking, she pulled Shen Yunguang out and walked out. Zhang Lei and the others saw the boss walking out and quickly followed behind. When they ran to the door, Zhang Lei asked from behind:

"Brother Guang, where are you going?"

"I don't know, just follow me." Shen Yunguang said impatiently.

The woman looked back and saw five men following her. She grabbed Shen Yunguang's arm with some fear and asked:

"What are they for?"

"It's okay, don't be afraid, they are all my brothers." Shen Yunguang replied, hugging the woman's shoulders.

"Ah! Are you a flyer? Bringing so many young men out." the woman asked.

"What? What is a flying man?" Shen Yunguang asked in confusion.

"That's right, that's the big boss, the gangster brother."

"Hahaha, no, no, no, they are all employees of my company. I am in business, not a gangster." Shen Yunguang explained with a laugh.

The two of them took a taxi to another song and dance hall, and Zhang Lei and the others followed in another car.

Arriving at a nightclub that specialized in ballroom dancing, Shen Yunguang put his arms around the soft waist of the woman in red and asked her name amid the soothing and beautiful music.

"My name is Tang Hui, and I come from Hong Kong. However, my hometown is Haizhou."

"Wow, are you from Hong Kong?" Shen Yunguang asked with his eyes widened. At that time, Hong Kong people were god-like existences and symbols of wealth to mainlanders.

"Well, yes."

"So are you the big boss?"

"No, I'm just a dancer. I was invited by the Southern Song and Dance Hall to lead the dance there."

"Wow, I said you dance so well."

"Your ballroom dancing is not bad, it is considered top-notch in Haizhou."

After the song ended, the two danced to the next song. When it was almost dawn, they were the only two people left on the dance floor. The technicians in the band were too sleepy to open their eyes, but the two of them were full of energy. full.

"What are you doing in Haizhou?" Tang Hui asked.

"I'm here to inspect."

"Inspection? What is the investigation?"

"We came to inspect the karaoke bar, but unfortunately we didn't make a reservation today and can't get in."

"Oh, do you want to go back to Zhongjiang and open a karaoke parlor?"

"Yes, after I return to Zhongjiang this time, I will not only open a karaoke parlor, but also a dance hall, a dance hall like Haizhou."

"Ah, really? But do you know how expensive karaoke machines are now?"

"What is a karaoke machine?"

"It's just for requesting and playing songs. There are wires connecting the microphone and the stereo so that people can sing with the microphone."

"Oh, how expensive is it?" Shen Yunguang asked.

"Karaoke alone costs three or four people, plus the power amplifier and audio equipment, a complete set of equipment will cost less than 10,000 yuan."

Shen Yunguang thought for a while and said:

"It's okay. Do you know anything about karaoke and dance halls?"

Tang Hui saw that Shen Yuguang didn't even frown when she heard her mention the price of 10,000 yuan a set. She knew that the old man from the north in front of her must be a rich man. So she quickly replied:

"Of course, I have worked in dance halls and karaoke halls in Hong Kong for many years, and I am very familiar with the equipment and management of these places."

"Really?" Shen Yunguang looked at the beautiful woman in front of him in disbelief.

"Why, don't you believe it? You'll believe it when I take you to the karaoke hall tomorrow to see it for yourself." Tang Hui said proudly.

"Then do I still need to make an appointment in advance?" Shen Yunguang asked.

"Of course not. I taught them how to use the equipment they have."

"Wow, that's great. It seems we didn't go to the karaoke bar today. We are so lucky to meet you in the dance hall." Shen Yunguang said happily.

The lights in the ballroom slowly dimmed, and the morning sunlight began to shine through the colorful window glass.
