Chapter 208: One minute on stage, ten years off stage
Since the two of them came back to the concert test venue after playing Qi Lei and Ah KING that day, for seven consecutive days and a whole week, the two stayed here for more than 14 hours almost every day.
There's no way around it! …… The so-called one minute on stage, ten years off the stage, Qi Lei is now doing exactly what he is doing with the ten years of work off the stage!
As the saying goes, if a concert is to look good and win the love of fans, it does take a lot of effort to put a lot of thought into it!
Just from the small part of what scene the concert starts, the lighting, props, dancer positions, camera shooting angles, music style, sound decibels, whether or not the harmony needs to be sung, live smoke screens, explosion fireworks, etc., and a series of tasks need to be done carefully......
This is only a few minutes at most in the concert! ~
But just such a few minutes of performance, there are already so many rehearsals and confirmed things to be done in it, which makes people have a headache when they think about it!
Not to mention, this Revival concert can be held a total of 10 times, each with an average of 2 hours and 34 minutes!!
Therefore, since that day, Qi Lei has not even returned to the three-person nest where he lived with Ice Beauty and Lin Beauty, so he simply asked Lin Beauty to help him prepare a few changes of clothes for him, and simply stayed in the gymnasium temporarily!
But even so, Qi still felt that his daily time was still not enough for himself, and the rehearsal for the concert was slow to everyone's expectations.
At this time, there was less than a week left before the concert began.
Speaking of which, many people must have thought that Qi Lei was in such a hurry to rehearse and was a temporary crammer, how could he do a good concert! ~
That's true, but it's not entirely true! ……
In fact, as early as after the concert was initially finalized, Qi Lei and his work team began to be busy around this matter. It's just that compared with the production cycle of film and television works, the preparation cycle of concerts is much longer. Naturally, throughout this preparation cycle, Reviver and his team will be interspersed with other work to be busy!
In other words, in fact, for the pre-publicity work of this concert. In mid-2002, Studio Revival and even Huayi Company began to advertise, poster, publish newspapers and magazines, and advertise on websites, and publicize it fiercely!
Speaking of the concert itself, Studio Reviver has set up a concert working group for it, which is responsible for arranging all aspects of the concert. Of course, this also includes the fact that in the already full schedule of Qi Lei on weekdays, he takes out even two hours, an hour, or even half an hour to go to a special rehearsal dance studio to practice dance with the supporting dancers and the musicians of the orchestra.
So based on the above, Qi Lei is not unfamiliar with the concert program, they are just a little unfamiliar with the performance on the stage now!
……
"Ballast~~Oh, Boom~~Pong, Puff Pong~~"
"Oooooooooo......oo
"%¥#・~(Sounds of other musical instruments)"
"On the Road", the style of this song itself belongs to the slow rock genre. Now, after being adapted into a concert version by Qi Lei and several members of his own orchestra, the music of his songs sounds a little more mysterious, depressing, and glamorous than the original.
And this song Reviver used it as the opening song of this concert, although most of the reason is because the song itself is adapted and is indeed suitable for the opening music. But on the other hand, this song is one of the only few music works that are really written and composed by Geniel among all the current songs of Reviving! …,
Therefore, it is easy to understand that Qi Lei has a soft spot for him!
But it is undeniable that the song "Road" is inspired by the song "Until the End of the World" by the famous Japanese anime "Slam Dunk". Whether it is in the creation of the song music itself, or in the lyrics, or even when Reviver sings in the later stage, it is indeed more inexplicable emotion than when the fans hear other songs of Reviver, which makes the fans of Reviver deeply intoxicated!
"No, no, stop, stop!" On the side of the stage, Qi Lei, who was standing on the side of the band, suddenly stopped when he was listening to the music of "The Road".
"No, the musicality of this section should be soft and mysterious. I think the tone of the VEN keyboard is a little thinner, and the drum sound of MAT is 1/4 decibel higher than the strings of the keyboard! ......" said after all the bands such as Reviver stopped.
"Is that so?" Chen Jiawei (concert music producer) was silent and thought after listening to Qi Lei's words.
"Well, this music of "The Road" should sound like we have just gotten into the car and sat down, putting our hands on the window and looking at the scenery outside the window. So I thought the musicality of this piece of music should be soft and mysterious, what do you think of Vigo!? Qi Lei then explained.
"Well~~ That's it! Okay, let's try, VICEN, MAT, you two do it again as Qi Lei said! ”
"Good!" After the two people who were said hello, they readjusted their instruments and prepared to play again.
……
"¥%#・~(Music)" After a while, the music started to sound again, but this time the music was obviously different from the previous one.
After the musicality was obviously different from just now, Qi Lei began to sing. But when it doesn't take a few lines to sing. Then it was his turn to be stopped!
"Stop! ~ Qi Lei, your singing is a little rushed, and you have to pay attention to your position, you are an arm away from the middle of the stage, which is not conducive to the camera shooting in the field. ”
"Oh! ~" Hearing the director begging Uncle to stop, Qi Lei shrugged his shoulders and shrank and grimaced.
Its ghostly appearance immediately amused most of the dancers and on-site staff at the scene: "Haha......"
"Qi Da, you see you are declining!"
"Giggle~~ The present world has reported it! Sample, gotta sè! ~" Ji Ning and several other female dancers even covered their mouths and hugged their bellies to make fun of them.
"Laugh and keep working!" Qi Lei deliberately said to the surroundings with a dark face.
……
After a while, the music sounded again: "%¥#・~"
This time, the crowd's performance went all the way to the end of the song "The Road", when the dancers and Qi Lei did the last set of dances. On stage, one of the dancers is standing slightly away from the camera...... The result!? … In the end, of course, he was shouted "stop" by Chen Weijia, the director of the audience.
"Ahh ~~ Xiaojia, you're too bad, you're also standing in the wrong position! ”
"Hey, blunder, blunder!"
"Attention units, restart rehearsals after counting down dozens of seconds!" The director shouted at this time.
……
After that, there were hundreds of people in Qi Lei and his entire team all day long, all of whom stayed at the concert site, constantly practicing all the programs in the concert.
But perhaps because the actual on-site rehearsal time is not very long, the entire rehearsal team is called to interrupt the rehearsal of the program almost every 10 minutes because of such and such mistakes......
Fortunately, although everyone is often NG, there are a lot of jokes about NG's various shots, various reasons, and even why everyone is directing zhìNG to appear, etc., and the atmosphere of the rehearsal scene is immersed in pain and happiness all the way, so that everyone can work without feeling bored!
Speaking of which, everyone really has a taste of "one minute on stage, ten years of work off the stage" welling up in their hearts, in that pain and happiness!
