Chapter 84: The Show Begins

Design work is like this, it never stops, it's done in spring, summer, summer, autumn, autumn, winter, spring! Repeat the cycle, never stop.

However, even if everyone works hard, Gao Zhan knows that among the twelve designers he has now, he will probably only be Zhang Shan who can finally enter the general design office, and the rest will be assigned to various branches to provide tailor-made products for VIP members.

Of course, there are also late bloomers in this industry, usually when they are young, but after the age of thirty or forty, they suddenly open up and become world-class fashion design masters, so ...... Hoarding a large number of designers is absolutely necessary. First, the characteristics of the company require a large number of designers to sit in various branches, and secondly, ...... Who knows which one will suddenly become a talent?

The blueprints have been sent to the foundry for production, and now ...... The purchase of Hualong Garment Factory is just a plan, and it will take some time before it is really bought.

On the eve of the winter clothes about to be listed, the first to come is the New Year's Day gala, although it is already this month, but Changzhou is located in the south, although this month has been very cool, but it has not yet entered the winter, autumn clothes continue to be rampant, there is no need to change winter clothes at all.

On the afternoon of the New Year's Day party, Gao Zhan and his entourage of six people rushed to Lu Ying's costumes again, and after taking the performance costumes designed by Zhang Shan for them, they each dressed up, not to mention, the feeling of these costumes really has a little bit of the flavor of the 92 version of the Eagle Band, but some fashion elements have been added, which seems to be more in line with the current trend, even if they are worn out now, it is not outdated, but it will be very trendy.

After putting on their respective costumes and checking the instruments one last time, Gao Zhan and his party left the store and rushed towards the school stadium, where they prepared for a month and practiced hard for a month, and finally it was time to perform.

When the group of six people arrived at the HN University Stadium, the surroundings were already overcrowded, and it was difficult to enter the stadium as far as the eye could see.

There are more than 30,000 students in HN University, about 22,000 undergraduates, and 1,000 graduate students.

Although it is not possible for all students to come to the game, the vast majority of them will come, and many of them will be eligible to watch the game through various channels, so I don't know how many people there are.

Fortunately, Gao Zhan and others participated in the performance, and there was a special passage to enter and exit, so the six people carried musical instruments on their backs, walked towards the side door, and entered the venue smoothly.

In the stadium, next to the stands on the side of the 100-meter runway, a huge stage was built, and various lighting equipment was erected above and around the stage, in terms of scale alone, it was not smaller than the general concert, according to Li Qian, the naming rights of today's party were taken away by a large company, and these lighting and sound equipment were all brought by them, if it was all done by the academy itself, it would definitely not be so professional.

The lighting is okay, there is nothing to say, the most noteworthy thing is the sound effects distributed around, it is said that this set of sound equipment has been used by several superstars in concerts, including even king-level superstars!

Behind the stage, the stands next to the original 100-meter runway are now backstage, after a large number of lights are erected, it is very bright here, and the students who participated in tonight's performance are dressed up here, and there are special teachers who are responsible for dressing up for everyone.

Gao Zhan and others' programs were arranged in a more palatable position, not that the college valued them more, mainly because they didn't count, Gao Zhan and the other six people were all students in the first year of high school, and they didn't know what level they were, if they were placed in front, once the effect was not good, it would be a slap in the face, such a large-scale party, it is said that local TV stations will come to broadcast live, how can you not be cautious?

Basically, the college's gala is three points of dance, three points of musical instruments, three points of singing, three kinds of programs should be interspersed, and the better programs should be placed at the beginning, middle, and end, so that you can give everyone a very professional and advanced impression at the beginning, set off a ** in the middle, and leave a good impression in the end.

Sophomores, juniors, and seniors have been here for two or three years, or even three or four years, and have participated in performances before.

As for Gao Zhan, the representatives sent by the class, firstly, they were not counted, and secondly, they were not very confident, so they were inserted in the middle, and one by one, they were arranged to perform in the middle section and from the ** downward.

The beginning should be good, the middle should be **, and the ending should leave a good impression, these are the three seriousness of a party, as for the middle, make do with some small fish and shrimp, after all...... Where will there be so many boutique programs! This is not an art academy after all.

Under the backstage lights, more than 20 tutors were busy, and the students participating in the performance were also very nervous. No matter how anxious you are, you have to be calm.

Looking around, Gao Zhan beckoned to everyone, walked to the corner of the stands, and the five people sat down separately, and took out their own musical instruments to pluck them.

Time passed slowly, a large number of students slowly entered, the entire 400-meter runway, and the football field surrounded in the middle, as well as the stands that surrounded most of the week, is the grandstand of this party, more than 30,000 spectators, will be there to watch this performance, by now, it is basically full, I don't know how many people there are, at least 30,000 or 40,000.

I don't know how the speakers are set up, the whole stadium is completely shrouded in music, at the moment...... Instruments are playing on the mixing console, constantly testing the effects of each area, and striving to let the audience in any corner enjoy the most dynamic and passionate music, and increase the effect of the performance.

The admission of the audience gradually stopped, and the vast majority of the audience had already entered the venue, and there were very few who had not yet entered.

As the time of the performance got closer and closer, the teachers in charge of organizing the backstage became even busier, constantly shouting and arranging one after another according to the program list.

"Where is the high exhibition of the freshman singing "Hotel California's"!" A few people were practicing silently, and the instructor in charge of the organization shouted loudly.

Hearing this voice, Gao Zhan hurriedly stood up, raised his hand and said, "Here!" As he spoke, Gao Zhan strode out and walked towards the teacher in charge of the organization.

Seeing Gao Zhan coming over, the tutor looked at the record book in his hand and said loudly: "Come and take a look, is this your plan during the performance?" ”

Leaning next to the teacher, Gao Zhan took a closer look, this plan is based on Gao Zhan's requirements, detailed to every link, and there must be no mistakes, otherwise the effect of the performance will be greatly reduced.

After reading it in detail, Gao Zhan nodded and said, "That's right, that's it, during the rehearsal, we have already walked through, and the position of the stool and the angle of the light have been adjusted." ”

"Okay......" nodded, and the instructor said hoarsely: "Then you go on to practice, don't leave the backstage, I'll tell you ten minutes in advance when it's time for you to perform." ”

I don't know how long it took, but finally ...... With the sound of passionate music, the party officially began, and the outside stands resounded with tsunami-like cheers, and at the same time, a man and a woman, the two hosts came out, and walked to the middle of the stage and spoke impassionedly.

As for what he said, Gao Zhan heard it clearly, but he didn't remember it, with the start of the party, Gao Zhan was also nervous, this is inadvertently, even many big stars who have been adults for many years are very nervous before going on stage, otherwise how can there be so many lip-synching, just afraid that there will be some mistakes on the scene.

Tonight, Li Qian also has a show, not only her, but also a few girls such as Lin Xiaorou, everyone has a show, Li Qian performs, in the past month, they are also practicing in retreat, as for what they are playing, Gao Zhan doesn't know.

With the start of the performance, Gao Zhan and his party excitedly gathered to the side of the stage and watched the performance on the stage.

The first program is a song and dance, a man and a woman, the man wears a white suit, the woman wears a red gauze skirt, one holds a microphone in his hand, and the one who sings is called a self-confidence, that is called an excited, that is called a narcissist, but I don't know what they are singing.

If you really want to talk about the level, Gao Zhan has to admit that others may not be worse than him, or even a little higher, and he doesn't know if it's popular or bel canto singing, but Gao Zhan sounds like he's laughing, or is he crying?

Accompanied by the singing of the two, twenty or thirty girls dressed in colorful flowers danced and painted there, the movements were also beautiful, and they were particularly neat, which reminded Gao Yu of the old grandfather and grandmother in the square.

If you want to talk about the lineup, you really don't have to say it, if you want to talk about the scene, it's really lively, if you want to talk about the level, it's really high, but if you want to talk about the viewing surname, I'm sorry...... How many people are looking at this thing now?

With the start of the party, everyone was quiet, but as soon as the song and dance came out, everyone was stunned for a while, but soon turned their heads and exchanged ears with the people around them.

Crowd tactics? Maybe...... In Guo Degang's cross talk, there are 100 helicopters coming down, 100 jumping down the mountain, 100 more coming out of the water, 100 coming up on the left, 100 coming out on the right, and another 100 on the carriage, and then one or two singing in the middle, don't care what they sing, anyway, it's a miserable howl, I don't know if it's good or bad, I just know that no one likes it, and no one watches it, but no one watches it but still performs, as for why, does anyone know about this?

Of course, Gao Zhan also knows that this thing is quite high-level, and there are still a few dropouts who like it, but you can get one or two, and if you have too much, it will be boring, especially if you take this disgusting person at the beginning, it is really disgusting.

The most speechless thing is that such a show is usually not short, the old lady's footwrap is the same, smelly and long, and the singing on it is incisive, it is simply unstoppable, and the following is listening to the desire to die, I can't wait to find a rope, directly strangle their necks, and then pull it hard, the world is quiet......

Sing happily, dance happily, no one cares how your audience is, this is the current party, in fact, from a certain point of view, the current party, there is no need to continue, even if you want to do it, you have to change the mode.

Everything pays attention to the times, but the party is not like this, it has been twenty or thirty years, but the form is still the same, the same carved out of a mold, but the stage is more gorgeous, the costumes are richer, except for the packaging, everything else is the nephew playing lanterns - as usual (according to the uncle)!

Looking at the two radiant singers singing on the stage, as well as the dancers dancing with flying eyebrows, and listening to the louder and louder chats in the audience, it is almost comparable to the audience area of the vegetable market, and Gao Zhan is speechless.

Finally, the first program finally ended, the host dragged the microphone, walked to the stage, the voice was unusually standard, and the report was frustrating: "Next, please enjoy the dance of Xinjiang Province - the grapes are ripe!" ”

After reporting behind the scenes, the host dragged the microphone and walked down, and then ...... A burst of music with very national characteristics sounded, and more than 20 girls dressed in national dances rushed up, singing and dancing.

In the next half hour, Gao Zhan was dumbfounded, in addition to popular and bel canto singing, it was either the dance of various nationalities, to say...... There are indeed a lot of nationalities in China, and if a nation can make a dance, that is our pride, which party can be missing? 56 nationalities and 56 flowers, not a single one is missing! Basically, a national dance or song comes to a while, and the party is over......

However, there is also a bright spot in the middle, but it makes Gao Zhan cry and laugh, it is a solo dance, imitating MJ's billiejean, listening to the dynamic music, it is really exciting, but the dancer who imitates MJ, is still too bad, and the movements are made, but he hasn't even learned his shape, let alone his god.

In the middle section, there was finally a show that amazed Gao Zhan, Li Qian appeared, and played a wild bee flying for everyone with an electric piano on the spot!

There is basically no need to say anything more about this piano piece, the dynamic rhythm, the frequency and speed of the percussion like raindrops, make people feel excited when they listen to it.

But if you really want to talk about it, the standard of this piano is high, but it is more suitable for those who are thirty or forty years old and more mature, but most of the people sitting on the scene are young people, and how many can sit down and quietly enjoy what piano music?

Fortunately, Li Qian finally had a brain, and she didn't play any fate, or moonlight or anything like that, but came to a flying bee dance with a strong skill surname, which won the warmest applause since the beginning of the party, after all...... Most of them are college students, and they still have the ability to appreciate this.

"Hey!" Just as he was thinking about it, Gao Zhan's shoulder was slapped suddenly, and when he turned his head in shock, Lin Xiaorou, whose face was painted like a ghost, was staring at him and said, "Your show hasn't started yet?" How much longer? ”

After recalling it a little, Gao Zhan said: "Soon, there are three more programs, it seems to be my turn, right...... What about you? Haven't your show started yet? ”

"You!" Hearing Gao Zhan's words, Lin Xiaorou's apricot eyes widened, and Gao Zhan's heart was furious, so she stomped her feet and didn't leave her head......

Looking at Lin Xiaorou's figure gradually moving away, Gao Zhan was completely stunned, and when she was stunned, Li Qian walked down from the stage, and when she saw this scene, Gao Zhan hurriedly greeted her, gave her a big hug, and congratulated her on the success of her performance.

After congratulating, Gao Zhan said to Li Qian puzzled: "When will Lin Xiaorou's show start?" ”

"Huh?" Hearing Gao Zhan's words, Li Qian was stunned, then shook her head with a wry smile and said: "You, you, you don't care about everyone too much, their dance is the second one in front of me, don't you know?" ”

"I'm ......" Hearing Li Qian's words, Gao Zhan was completely blindsided.

He did remember the dance just now, what was called water and what lotus, it was a piece of guzheng music, and then more than a dozen girls danced with the music, which was not bad, but seriously, Gao Zhan really didn't like this kind of thing, saying something nice was outdated, saying something bad was outdated, what age is this, and he is still dancing in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Now this is the case in China, if you sing the songs of the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, everyone will laugh at you, but the whole dance world is dancing in the sixties and seventies, but everyone thinks it is normal, I really don't understand why, it's not only old things that are called art.

Looking back, when the dance team came on stage from the side of the stage just now, there were really a few girls looking this way, but God can testify that when the stage makeup is put on, all of them are similar to ghosts, who can tell who is who.

Especially everyone is dressed similarly, the figure is similar, and the face is painted like an Indian, I really can't recognize it, I didn't expect that those girls would be mixed in it, and they were all finished, but he was still asking when the show would start, no wonder Lin Xiaorou was angry.

But Gao Zhan feels that he is also quite wronged, if you want us to know, then don't keep it secret, you have to be dense again, and the show you play is so lackluster, how can people recognize it?

While complaining, the mentor in charge of the organization in the background shouted loudly, "Where is Gao Zhan in the freshman year?" Those who sang "Hotel California", hurry up! ”

Hearing this shout, Gao Zhan hurriedly dragged Tian Han and ran over, and when he saw Gao Zhan and others coming, the teacher said eagerly: "Time is running out, after this show is over, there will be another program for you, hurry up and practice it one last time, hurry up and ...... it."

Hearing the words of the tutor, Gao Zhan and the others did not dare to slack off, and returned to the corner one after another, took out their musical instruments and played, humming in a low voice while playing.

After fifteen or six years of accumulation, precipitation, and intensive training in the past month, their level has now been determined to be on a realm, as long as they do not play abnormally, the effect will not be bad.

Putting down the guitar in his hand, Gao Zhan looked at a few people seriously: "Okay, soon it's our turn to perform, don't be too nervous, you can usually do whatever you want, if you are nervous and lose face, you will be laughed at." ”

"Sneer......" Hearing Gao Zhan's words, Zhao Xiaogang sneered, patted his chest proudly and said, "Then you are too underestimated, what scene have we never seen?" It's not the first time we've been on stage, don't worry. ”

"En......" As soon as Zhao Xiaogang's voice fell, Tian Han said: "At this point, Xiaogang is not bragging, we used to go to bars, dance halls, and some company celebrations to participate in performances, not for money, just to join in the fun, although there is not much of a scene, but the experience is not bad, not to stage fright." ”

Hearing Tian Han's words, Gao Zhan couldn't help laughing, speaking of which, he didn't have any practical experience, but Gao Zhan was not worried, although he hadn't really performed on stage, but just talking about psychological quality, after a whole year of military training last year, he had absolutely passed the test, and he had overcome several difficulties in life and death, what else could make him afraid? The more critical the moment, the more important it is to concentrate.

Holding the guitar in one hand, Gao Zhan stood up, stretched out his right hand and said, "Come, let's cheer together, after today, let the six of us brothers be famous!" ”

"Good...... Famous rivers and lakes! Hearing Gao Zhan's words, the brothers also shouted playfully, and folded their hands on Gao Zhan's big hands.

At this time, the mentor in charge of the backstage organization called Gao Zhan's name again and said loudly: "Okay, okay, you guys hurry up, after this dance, it's your show, hurry up and check it to see if there's anything missing." ”

With the end of a dynamic, cheerful bodybuilding, all the audience is a little bored, although this year's party is very large, but in comparison, it is not as interesting as the previous party, although not so professional, but it is more lively, vivid, although the level of the program is not high, but it is hilarious, the party of college students, naturally has the unique characteristics of college students.

But this party, but everyone was very disappointed, although there was also a professional-level performance, but it was too boring, it looked like a small local TV station held a staff party, which made people drowsy and couldn't keep up their spirits at all.

"Whew...... Whew...... "Whew...... "Just when everyone was talking about each other, the spotlights at the four corners of the stadium were first extinguished, and then ...... The lights around the stage were turned off one by one, and the huge stadium was soon plunged into darkness.

"What's going on? Is there a power outage? Just when everyone was confused, a beam of light was projected and shone on the stage, and the host in a rose-colored costume, holding a microphone in his hand, stood in the halo and said softly: "Next, I invite Gao Zhan, a freshman, and his partners, to bring you - Hotel California." ”

As the host's words ended, the next moment ...... The lights slowly went out, and the whole stage fell into darkness again, although the surroundings were dim, but everyone's eyes were locked on the stage, and in that darkness, it seemed that something was brewing.

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Under everyone's gaze, there were five soft sounds, five cylindrical beams, straight down from above the stage, under each light, there was a round stool, the most exciting thing was the two tambourines more than one meter high behind the five round stools.

Seeing this scene, all the audience realized something, speaking of the Hotel California, and then seeing the current furnishings, if you haven't thought of anything, then you are not earthling, in the words of the star master, this earth is very dangerous, hurry back to Mars.

At the same time, in the hall on the fourth floor of Lu Ying's costumes, everyone sat on the sofa, looking at the dark stage on the screen, and talking about something from time to time.

Gao Zhan and others have been training for the past month, and the people in the store know about it, and they also know that today Gao Zhan participated in the performance of this party and trained for a month, and they don't know what the effect is.

Looking at the dark stage, these girls who have just graduated are also very curious, the New Year's Day Gala of college students, they have also participated in many circles, but such a scene is really rare.

At the same time, on the side of the stage, Gao Zhan closed his eyes lightly, constantly taking deep breaths, trying to keep his mood stable, and beside him, Tian Han and the five people also slapped their chests with their hands, ready at any time.

Finally, Gao Zhan prepared everything, suddenly opened his eyes, and saw a scene, led by Li Qian, Lin Xiaorou and several other girls rushed over, encouraging them one after another, wishing Gao Zhan and others a successful performance.

Nodding firmly, Gao Zhan's eyes shot a confident light, and with a wave of his big hand, he walked towards the stage with Tian Han and the other five people.

"Woo ......" The next moment, when all the audience saw Gao Zhan five people wearing classical and fashionable costumes and holding musical instruments on the stage through the big screen of the scene, they immediately cheered uncontrollably. In terms of creating an atmosphere, it is really too strong.

Before going on stage, the audience first went dark, so that everyone was curious to find out, find out the reason, and then the host attracted everyone's attention, which was played by a trumpeter on the 95 version.

After putting everyone's attention on the stage, the next thing is that five lights shine down and cast on the five round stools, so that everyone is told what will be next, so that everyone can brew emotions and precipitate their moods.

At this time, Gao Zhan and others did not appear, but continued to wait, firstly, to make themselves calmer, on the other hand, to let all the audience's attention be on the stage, so as to have a good environment when performing for a while.

Next, after the scene calms down completely, Gao Zhan and others will appear, if they wait any longer, once the audience is impatient to wait, and someone starts to call for trouble, it will be miserable, how to end?

Because the venue is too large, although it is on the scene, in fact, everyone can not see the situation on the stage, only a few figures can be vaguely seen, and if you want to see it more specifically, you still have to put it on the scene on the large super giant LCD screen.

The photographer grasped it very well, and under the gaze of all the audience, Gao Zhan and the five people calmly walked to the stage, sat down on the round stool, and raised the guitar in their hands one after another.

Seeing this scene, screams, cheers, and tsunamis rang out, although the performance has not officially started, but from the beginning to the present, all the planning is perfect, so that everyone's emotions have accumulated to a level that needs to explode.

Atmosphere, costumes, environment, effects...... Everything has reached the point of being amazing, and I can't express my inner excitement without yelling a few times.

Looking at the five guys sitting on the stool on the stage, Li Qian and Lin Xiaorou couldn't help but sigh, they are also people, why is this difference so big? In terms of atmosphere, as well as the grasp of the heat, in the brewing and control of feelings, Gao Zhan is already a master.

At the same time, on the fourth floor of Lu Ying's costumes, all the girls exclaimed: "Boss! This is the boss! Oh, my God...... He's really handsome on TV, he doesn't even look like he's a person anymore. ”

Watching the TV intently, Lu Ying and Bai Lu refused to even blink their eyes, indeed...... As soon as he was on TV, Gao Zhan's temperament exuding from the inside out, as well as his handsome and resolute face, suddenly made him seem to have changed as if he was a different person, which is still the Gao Zhan that everyone is usually familiar with, he is simply a super emperor superstar!

If you want to talk about the lens, it's really fantastical, in fact...... Movies and television themselves are made using the principle of magic, so many magical phenomena have been produced.

"Photogenic!" That's right, for an actor, the most important thing is not what you look like, but what you look like under the camera, many people don't look very good, but as soon as they appear on camera, they become peerless beauties, and as soon as the real peerless beauty is on camera, they directly become vulgar fans, which is by no means an exaggeration.

Gao Zhan is usually quite handsome, if men are divided into upper, middle and lower third-rate, then Gao Zhan should belong to the upstream, the lower part, quite handsome, but not so handsome that it alarms the Party Central Committee!

Sunny, cheerful, a little handsome, this is Gao Zhan in real life, but once on TV, it is completely different, as soon as you see him, you can feel the temperament that emanates from the inside out, the lines of the face are smooth and profound, so handsome that people forget to breathe!

It's a lie to say that he is not nervous, looking at the thirty or forty thousand viewers in the audience, Gao Zhan took a deep breath, the expression on his face was very serious, it was not that he did it on purpose, but he really couldn't laugh, but the serious expression, it looked like it was cool, and the handsome and cool super handsome guy was born.

"Yikes! Wow! Suddenly, the screams of girls sounded in the audience, to be honest, everyone has been in school for so many years, but I really didn't know that there was such an earth-shattering handsome guy in the school.

Turning his head sideways, he explained a few words to the few people beside him, and after making sure that everyone had calmed down and was no longer nervous, he pulled the lead singer's microphone in front of him, and said softly: "Everyone...... Next we bring you is the Eagles' "Hotel California"

Hearing this, there was a tidal wave of applause from below, and after adjusting the position of the microphone, Gao Zhan took a deep breath, showed a smile to the front, and gently picked up the guitar in his arms.

Seeing this scene, the TV broadcast immediately pointed the camera at Gao Zhan on the stage, in the camera, Gao Zhan was wearing a sleeveless leather jacket with some leather straps hanging on his body, and the muscle lines on his arms were unusually beautiful and smooth.

Although there is no sleeve, but Gao Zhan's hands, but with a leather means, the back of the hand is hollowed, the five fingers are also exposed, under the lens of TV, it looks unusually trendy, fashionable, this is Zhang Shan's tailor-made design for Gao Zhan, and it is also her most satisfactory work.

Closed his eyes to calm himself completely, and then ...... Gao Zhan slowly opened his eyes, pressed the strings with his left hand, and played softly on the guitar with his right hand, and in an instant...... The soft sound of the guitar spreads through the Smoman guitar and is transmitted through the microphone to the audience.

The audience was silent, only the beautiful guitar sound, in the crisp sound, from the beginning of the soft and agile, began to gradually increase the speed, through the big screen, everyone looked at Gao Zhan intently, looking at his handsome face, and the rapid plucking of fingers.

Soon, the instrument reached the solo part of the very dazzling technique, under the gaze of all the audience, the fingers stretched faster and faster, and the crisp guitar sound was connected into a string, which was incomparably beautiful, so that all the audience couldn't help but be excited.

"Chirp...... Oh! "With the faster and faster strumming, ready-made whistles, cheers, rose to the sky.

Hearing the audience's reaction, Gao Zhan was completely relieved this time, this paragraph is the most difficult to interpret, one is not good, the taste is not right, but from today's performance, it is not worse than the level of Pingshuo, and due to the high concentration of the spirit, the performance is even better.

Finally, with a very rhythmic trill, Gao Zhan's first solo is completely over, and the next ...... Tian Han's tambourine sounded, Lin Tao's bass also began to play, and the six people focused on holding their respective instruments, just like Pingyue training, in the silence, playing that incomparably classic, but also incomparably beautiful vagueness.

The empty square, the professional top sound effects, and a few very good guitars, with everyone's skills, the prelude part of the Hotel California was almost perfectly restored, and even many people began to wonder if it was lip-to-sing.

The long prelude, instead of making people feel bored, will drag everyone into that dreamlike mood together, intoxicated by the incomparably beautiful music, and unwilling to wake up.

(To be continued)
