Chapter Seventy-One: Signing Scene (Happy New Year Wishes to Everyone)
It has always been difficult to have a big scene in South Korea, because Koreans treat celebrities very "rationally", and they don't even use the word star very much, but call them entertainers. For artists who can be yujian in a few minutes on the street, unless they are born, Koreans will not even look at them, so the signing party has basically become a fan party.
Today, Saturday, Li Jingming's fans are basically at home or in the dormitory during the holiday, and there are many people who come back to the signing site on the official website, more than 2,000 people. Don't underestimate the number of 2,000 people, some people would rather sleep at home than go to the signing site, even if it is a registered fan of the artist's official website, the signing site is very uncomfortable, and now it will be sunburned in the summer like this, and so on, it is far beyond Li Jingming's expectations to have 2,000 people.
Korean artists are different from the stars of the Celestial Empire, they often add some words of blessing when signing their autographs, and they are also very warm and polite to fans, shaking hands and greetings, rather than signing a name and handing it over. At the same time, he also won the hearts of fans, so it is no wonder that many fans in the Celestial Empire like Korean artists and sneer at the so-called big names of the Celestial Empire.
Suppose you shake hands for three seconds, ask for information for five seconds, write these words and your name for seven seconds, zuihou thank you and say goodbye for another five seconds, and it will take twenty seconds for Li Jingming to each person at the signing meeting, and 2,000 people will be 40,000 seconds, 666 minutes, and more than 11 hours. If "Li Jingming" is the name of a group, and there are ten people in this group, it will be done in an hour, but unfortunately Li Jingming has no doppelganger skills, and he can't insist on sitting for more than ten hours just to do such a thing, so today he may have to disappoint some fans and return.
However, the most tired today will definitely not be Li Jingming, but Li Shengmin's gang, although it is not the chaotic era of the past, but safety first, it is not an exaggeration to say that if Li Jingming has three long and two short, the entire Republic of Korea will have a major earthquake.
Li Jingming's mystic style is the main reason why his first signing meeting as a newcomer is bigger than that of other popular artists, and everyone has a certain curiosity about him, so this opportunity for "first intimate contact" is particularly precious.
After tidying up the instrument and standing on the haode platform set up in advance, Li Jingming picked up the microphone and cleared his throat, he had to communicate with his fans before starting, which is the practice of all artists.
As soon as Li Jingming stood in a place where everyone could see, the long queue burst into cheers, it makes no sense to like someone, and fans like artists the same, as long as you have the ability to make others like you, they can support you unconditionally. Li Jingming did not speak, and directly stood on the high platform of the venue with a 90-degree bow, and the twenty-second bow made the screams of the people in line even more exaggerated.
"Today's first sentence is to say to everyone daoqian, for various reasons, I haven't been on any shows in the past week after my debut, and I don't have much on the Internet, so it's rare to communicate with everyone, so I'm really embarrassed to keep everyone in mind, and I feel a little sorry for the fans who have been caring about me." Li Jingming's approach to daoqian is very ingenious, he has become popular recently, and this achievement is already a symbol of popularity, the so-called popularity is a lot, and people who look at him unpleasantly have begun to criticize him as "the artist who works the least hard". In fact, it has only been a week since his debut, and it is still early to talk about what to talk about on the show and what to talk about interacting, but who has made him so popular now.
Others may not have 1,000 official fans for many years after their debut, but Li Jingming has more than 30,000 people spending money into his fan club in just a week, and cases like Li Jingming's "inexplicable" popularity have caused pink eye in many people. He also has a few videos on the Internet, which are uploaded by others, and he can get such results on a radio program in total, which makes people desperately rush to make announcements every day, how embarrassing are the artists who pay a huge price to squeeze into a program. He won't care about those envious, jealous and hateful artists, but he still needs to leave a good impression on his fans, and now the reaction on the scene shows that his actions are still popular.
"In the future, I will strive for more opportunities to meet with you, and strive to have more haode works to bring to you, I hope you will continue to support me." Li Jingming didn't say much, the signing will be the most important thing. The arrangement depends on the specific situation, Li Jingming's side was counted by the staff of LAD Entertainment in real time, and there were 2,000 people who left messages on the Internet saying that they wanted to come, in fact, there will be a lot of casual words taking advantage of the situation, and there are also people who suddenly have something, and some are ready to wait for a while, and there are a total of 1,100 people who are coming now, which is really not a small number, and it is much more lively than other people who only have a few hundred fans and artist signing meetings.
Li Jingming, who was afraid that there would be too much time, did not perform the show, but directly began to sign autographs, and the first one to step forward was a young lady, in her prime, with a white lace collar shirt and straight trousers, looking like an urban girl. After handing over the album, Li Jingming took the initiative to shake hands with the other party, shook it lightly, and then asked, "Hello, what is your name?" ”
"My name is Bai Duoyi, and I'm your fan." The woman smiled very ladylikely, and others looked at it with comfort.
"Of course I know it's my fan, otherwise I wouldn't have come to line up so early, and I'm here very early today, Nuna." Li Jingming joked, "You are the first, how about I send a Service, what do you want?" ”
"That's great, hug it." Bai Duoyi said very generously, although Li Jingming is already twenty-three, but he looks like a big boy with a childish face, and many sisters like this.
Seeing that the first person to go up actually got Li Jingming's hug, there was an envious exclamation in the team, almost 90% of the people in this long line are women, and almost 90% of these women are sister's meals, it is a very good thing for them to get a hug from Li Jingming, but the sister's meal is similar to that of his mother's meal, and they are all considerate fans who will not take the initiative to ask Li Jingming to do anything, otherwise Li Jingming can hug Li Jingming until dark just by hugging today.
"Special blessings to the special Bai Duoyi Nuna, I wish you to be young and beautiful forever, Li Jingming, June 16, 2007." After Li Jingming wrote this line on the cover of the album, Bai Duoyi nodded with satisfaction, and Li Jingming bowed to each other before leaving. The autograph session is like this, in fact, it is not more about the artist giving fans benefits, but the fans showing their support for the artist, many fans queue up for hours just to shake hands and get a signature, not really, because many signed items can be bought in the peripherals, the vast majority of fans just want their favorite artists to feel their own hearts will come to the signing meeting to support on the spot, fans are the cutest people.
Some people are holding the album and directly letting it be signed on the album, and some people take out the photos in the album and let Li Jingming sign on the photos, each with its own requirements, Li Jingming also changed the pattern to write blessings, which was good at first, but after ten o'clock, the sun in the sky began to be scorching, and Li Jingming found the problem, but Li Jingming was also embarrassed to sit in the Lotte Department Store to blow the air conditioner and sign and let his fans bask in the sun outside, so he didn't move, It's just that people put two large electric fans in the awning, and then start thinking about their fans.
Li Jingming made a phone call during the break and drinking, the person he called was called Kim so-chul, one of the people in charge of the Lotte Department Store main store, not long after the call, a group of staff members ran over with the guys and set up a long row of sheds, the kind of sheds used in outdoor publicity in shopping malls, Lotte Department Store put a lot of them in the warehouse, and now it just comes in handy. After these sheds were erected, the fan team had a place to have shade, and the fans were very happy with such a thoughtful gesture. Song Seok-jae didn't think of this at the beginning, although he is also a top student of a prestigious school, but he has no experience in the first signing meeting, and it is obviously unrealistic to want to do everything at once, but fortunately, the people of Lotte Department Store act quickly, and now the fans' favorability of Li Jingming and LAD Entertainment has reached a higher level.
"How are you?" Lee Jingming looked up and found that the snack in front of him was actually the snack merchant, Park Ji-yeon, who was competing with Jessica's sister.
"OPPA invited me to eat beef, of course I have to come over to repay it, I'm afraid that if no one comes, then you will lose face." After speaking, Park Ji-yeon glanced at the long line behind her, and it seemed that whether she came or not didn't have much of an impact, "But who knew that there were so many people, OPPA, you wouldn't invite them to eat beef too, would you?" ”
"Are you fifteen years old, how do I think you are only five years old, inviting others to eat beef for people to cheer on, am I crazy, the price of the album is not as high as a piece of beef (a serving of Korean beef is 120 grams or 150 grams, and the price ranges from 40,000 to 60,000 won)." Li Jingming looked at this foodie funny, and knew if he could eat it. Ms. Jin Yunshu knew Li Jingming's thoughts and was about to laugh again, this guy was embarrassed to talk about others, and he himself did many ridiculous things because of what he ate.
"Then how can there be so many people, OPPA is obviously still a newcomer." Park Ji-yeon glared at him dissatisfiedly when she heard Lee Kyung-myung say that she was a five-year-old child, "YangPa Oni's autograph session is not so many. ”
YangPa is also a solo singer, and has been famous for many years, and he is a senior who debuted in 97, but there is a strange phenomenon in South Korea, in the music industry, the popularity of women is not comparable to that of men, because registered fans in South Korea need to spend money to pay membership fees, and there are usually many activities, those who are willing to pay money and those who have free time are some women, and they are generally fans of male singers, which has caused many singers like YangPa to be praised or not called sales, especially female singers.
"What do you want to write, I'll write it for you, there are so many people behind it." Lee Kyung-myung didn't dare to talk to Park Ji-yeon for too long, and the fans behind him were dissatisfied.
"Write whatever you want, I don't know, one of them was bought by Jihyun Oni, and she was embarrassed to come over." Park Ji-yeon handed over two albums.
Li Jingming is happy, is this being an idiot? Lee Ji-hyun's album was signed by himself and sent over, as the heroine of the MV and a friend of Lee Kyung-myung, he couldn't be so stingy that he couldn't even give an album, "Ah, to be honest, what's going on with this album, didn't I give her a signed album, it still has a special number." "The album that Lee Kyung-myung gave to Lee Ji-hyun is the 1,212th, which is the number of Lee Ji-hyun's birthday.
"It was bought by Zhixian Oni, but it was bought for Enjing Oni, because Enjing Oni has run out of money recently, so the money given by Zhixian Oni is not considered to be what she bought?" Park Ji-yeon said with a heartfelt voice.
"It's good if you just say it's Xian Enjing, it's not that I don't know." Xian Enjing sat next to him at dinner that day, how could he not know him, and after the signatures on the two sheets were written, he sent them, "Then go, the people in the back should be in a hurry." Park Ji-yeon has been standing for a much longer time than others, and Lee Kyung-myung doesn't dare to discriminate and cause dissatisfaction among others.
Park Ji-yeon snorted, "The one behind is also our company's Ernie, you won't blame me, hum." ”
Also that CCM Entertainment female trainee? When Park Ji-yeon turned around, Li Jingming saw the person behind him, a very beautiful person.
