Chapter 481: Performance
Fortunately, Shen Yiyi's worries did not come true. In fact, Zhu Eva has spent so much time on this matter, and she will not allow any changes in her almost first appearance. So everything was performed according to the script. The Cirque du Soleil cast proved with their performances that they were worthy of the staggering price tag. In fact, after the artistic director of the circus shouted the price at that time, he personally came to the United States many times and held meetings with Zhu Yiwa. They envisioned such a form of entry, including the entry flow of the actors, as well as the form of interaction with the audience. From the moment the ceremony began, all the actions were already recorded in the script of the time.
Shen Yiyi also trusted Zhu Eva's ability very much. This is a partner she decided on her own, and if she can't do it, it will be tantamount to setting herself a trap. But people are always like this, especially for the cautious person, if the dust does not settle until the last moment, it seems that there will always be a little bit of uncertainty, for fear that there will be some accidents that will be difficult to deal with. Fortunately, Shen Yiyi himself doesn't have a crow's mouth, and he is not straight enough, so this promotion performance for his own products can be said to be quite successful.
The actors skillfully use the balance bikes assigned to them, drawing graceful curves in this hall, decomposing, paralleling, interspersing, and interweaving together. Their parting and merging with melodious tunes, coupled with the bright light, give the audience of this era a novel beauty. You know, in the 90s, there was no LED mass appearance. Such a scene can really be said to be very rare.
Zhu Eva fully estimated the duration of the performance at that time. This is her and her own professional team, including acting majors and psychology majors. Then there is the result agreed upon by the consultants of the communication profession. The duration of the opening performance was limited to five minutes.
Generally speaking, unless it is a theme performance, it is best to have no more than five minutes for this kind of mat performance. Because the main body of the press conference should still announce to everyone the product itself, that is, who the manufacturer of the product is, what the sales channel is, where and how much money can be purchased, and so on. Merchants should keep in mind that their mission is to sell products. It's not about promoting art and spreading beauty. So when arranging the whole event, be sure not to overpower the crowd. On the contrary, after stirring up the atmosphere. That's when the main character comes in.
So, when the beautiful music came to an end, the original dimmed indoor lights were all lit up at once. And not only that, but at this time in the hall. There were flashes of light. At that moment when the magnesium light came on. A majestic symphony resounded in the room. The acrobats who had already lined up stepped on the top of the balance bike, bowing and smiling and waving to the big guys. And in front of them, of course, is the upcoming Jueva, and her male companion Joshua. And Howard, another popular figure in Morgan's family, naturally appeared on the other side of the stage. There was another Chinese girl in his arm.
It's also very interesting to say. The two men in the center of the stage are the standard white guys that are often seen in Western magazines. Both are also tall, handsome, and extravagant. And today, who are with the two of them, are not the blonde and blue-eyed Western beauties who should appear in magazines, but two Chinese girls. This combination can be described as a novelty.
Fortunately, the United States is still a more racially open country than Europe. They accept a lot of racial differences. So although I wasn't very used to it, the audience quickly focused on today's topic.
Jueva seemed to be a little nervous. This is normal. Such an important moment made her heart like water, then she could really become a nun. A moderate amount of nervousness can still make her calm enough to deal with the next work.
Jueva cleared her throat. He said to the miniature microphone pinned to the corsage pinned to his neckline: "Guests, friends. I beg your pardon for having to interrupt Yaxing, who was enjoying the wonderful performance just now. I've noticed the intoxication and joy in everyone's eyes the moment the lights come on. Of course, I will not interpret everyone's mood at the moment as impatient and perfunctory. โ
A particularly important component of American speech is humor. Humor is actually different from Chinese crosstalk or jokes. The object of Chinese crosstalk and jokes is often others, while the object of humor is often themselves. Chinese often feel uncomfortable learning American humor. Actually, there aren't too many tricks. To put it bluntly, humor is based on self-deprecation. A person who is strong enough to dare and be willing to laugh at himself has the gene of humor.
Zhu Yiwa's opening remarks are obviously quite humorous. So, naturally, she received low laughter and applause from the audience.
โwell_done!โ Zhu Eva gave herself a cheer in her heart. Although this opening statement took a lot of thought of its own, it was not in vain to be able to have such an effect. She glanced at her side, and it was clear that her friends were very happy with the effect. Shen Yiyi also waved a small pink fist to show her support.
"In the performance just now, I think what fascinated everyone the most was the agility of our Cirque du Soleil actors. I'm sure you're no stranger to this kind of figure in the audience at the circus. Especially when we see trapeze, when the actors are flying around one after another in front of everyone or overhead, we always think that it will be a meteor that sets off beautiful fireworks in front of us. But everyone also knows that the lobby of this big hotel does not have the conditions to tie tightropes to these actors. So, Sam, can you tell you how you were able to fly right in front of me like you're hanging a tightrope from a circus on this occasion? โ
Like a reporter or host, Zhu Eva handed a microphone in her hand to a Cirque du Soleil actor beside her. The actor's name may be Sam. Of course, this must be a set up bridge. So the actor named Sam also cooperated and rolled his eyes, and said to this person with disdain, "Okay Yvonne, don't you just want me to praise this product of yours?" That's right, I'm standing on top of your balance bike. This car gave me the illusion that I could fly as if I had a wire tied to it. But really, it's a lot more comfortable than tying a tightrope. At least now I feel grounded and my back doesn't hurt as much. "The expression of a professional actor is also a form of performance. This actor named Sam also has the self-cultivation of an actor. So the effect of his words was achieved. Because obviously, everyone in the audience found his words interesting.
The dialogue between Jueva and Sam was pre-set, but even then, being able to speak fluently and without any stuttering was still a perfect performance. Following Sam's topic, Zhu Eva just drew everyone's attention to her own product.
"Well, that's right. This is my selfishness. But I don't think you in the audience expected to come here today to watch the performance, right? The invitation card in everyone's hand didn't have the words charity performance written on it. There was some laughter in the audience again. Zhu Eva continued: "Actually, when I was very young, I was a little girl. When I see people on stage performing, I wonder if I can give the best performance like the people on stage. At this time, I would ask my mother, can I also perform so well and still be recognized by everyone? That's when my mom told me, "Baby, you can't." These actors have been practicing this kind of acting since they were young. You can't endure such suffering. โ
As she spoke, Zhu Yiwa learned her mother's expression. It was a mother's tender words to her child. Shen Yiyi felt that Zhu Eva should go to fix the performance. Because her performance is still very interesting.
So I thought. Well, I don't want to suffer like that. I won't dream of flying like them. But Sam, don't you feel threatened today? If I stepped on this balance bike, wouldn't I be able to walk around like the wind as freely as you did? โ
Sam cooperatively showed a hint of apprehension at first, then turned irritable: "It's possible. But who told you to make a car like this? Isn't that going to put us out of work? I'm going to sue you at the Actors' Guild. You're trying to make us unemployed! โ
Jueva let out a silver bell-like laugh, "Sam, we didn't make this. In fact, we are just a general agent of this car. In fact, there are other people who have really researched this car. If you were to sue them, I don't think I would mind. โ
Sam listened to Zhueva's words and became even more irritable. He almost roared, "Who is it?" Who is it? Who is it? Who's going to smash my job? Shen Yiyi found that Zhu Eva was really good at playing, because with Sam's questioning, the melody of an aria sounded in the background. And Sam was already singing like a song.
