"Chen, long time no see! I'm so glad you came to my concert! ”

Madonna, who had just entered Madison Garden and was preparing for the concert in the venue in advance, came to greet Chen Qiming and his party in person.

At this time, Madonna had already changed into a performance costume.

A white sheer gauze skirt.

It has to be said that Madonna can become the most influential female singer in the world.

In addition to her songs, her appearance also has a certain factor in it.

Maybe she can't compare to top beauties like Charlize, but she has a different flavor when she wears a performance costume.

Madonna didn't talk to Chen Qiming for too long, and after taking Chen Qiming and his party to the backstage, she left in a hurry.

Concerts are like that, especially for a big concert like today, and the performers need to do a lot of preparation in advance.

Not only Madonna needs to prepare, but Chen Qiming also needs to do it.

First of all, they need to familiarize themselves with the venue.

Some people may think that there is nothing to be familiar with the venue, but it is just such a big place, and there is no need to be familiar with it at all.

Actually, this is a wrong idea.

There are a lot of things to be aware of in a show.

The easiest point is positioning.

Some people may think that the singer at the concert can come casually, but it is not.

When every singer goes on stage, he needs to go on stage to familiarize himself with the position of the speaker, or under the guidance of a professional sound engineer to understand what position can not be turned around, the microphone must be hidden, and so on.

The reason for this is that in the 90s, there were still fatal flaws in the way of wireless connection, such as poor anti-interference ability, unstable signal, and so on.

Therefore, in order to ensure the quality of the performance, a wired connection is a must.

The microphones are all wired.

In addition, the microphone cannot be opposed to the speaker, which is common knowledge that many people understand.

In fact, whether it is in tuning, rehearsal or performance, as long as it is on stage, the microphone cannot be opposite the speaker, which is the most basic common sense.

If you accidentally let the microphone face the speaker, the sound in the speaker will come out and enter the speaker again after passing through the microphone, resulting in a cyclic frying microphone.

Think about it, if there is a situation of fried wheat in the concert, it must be a big accident.

Therefore, concert performers tend to familiarize themselves with every sound position in the venue before the performance starts, so as to avoid accidentally blowing up microphones.

And this is the smallest problem in the preparation for the concert.

Rehearsals, familiarizing yourself with the equipment, or changing into your own equipment are all things that you must have before the concert starts.

Especially changing equipment.

One might think that all the singers on the show use the same set of equipment.

No！

Not really.

For pop singers like Chen Qiming, as long as it is top-notch equipment, it doesn't matter to them.

But that's not the case for bands.

We often hear someone say that he is not used to using someone else's instrument, which sounds like a hypocrisy.

But the truth is that different instruments are completely different.

It's like there's no one in the world who looks exactly the same.

The same goes for musical instruments.

Many people are used to using their own instruments, and if they change to someone else's instrument, their performance will even be weaker.

This is due to the fact that although it is the same instrument, the timbre is not the same as the frequency of the tuning.

Like today's Chast.

When he brought his band members backstage, the first thing they did was arrange for the staff to change their own equipment, even the stereo.

Chen Qiming, on the other hand, arranged for his own tuner to communicate with the organizer, and when he was ready to play, he would replace the backstage tuner with his own tuner.

Some people may have heard a sentence that the singers that the audience hears are all revised.

This is absolutely true.

Just like Chen Qiming, wherever he goes, he will bring his own tuner with him.

When singing on stage, the tuner will make a certain amount of tuning on the tuning equipment in the background.

Only then will these sounds be transmitted through the speakers.

Of course, there isn't that much time for you to tune in for a live performance, so overall, it's going to be a little worse than the sound in the studio.

There are many people who always say that so-and-so singer's live singing is very good, just like in the studio.

Well, I didn't say it, it must be lip-synching.

Chen Qiming himself can be regarded as a person with very good singing skills.

But what he sings on stage is a bit different from what he has been tuned in the studio.

As for others......

Rehearsals, adjusting equipment, familiarizing with stage ......

Things are going on in an orderly manner.

In the blink of an eye, the time came to half past six.

All the work on the stage is basically ready.

All the singers who attended the concert, including Chen Qiming, began to retreat to the backstage lounge, and the audience began to enter.

"Hi Chen!"

Who is Madonna?

The world's top superstar, the first sister of Warner Records.

The United States is her home stadium again, so it is natural that her concert tonight will not only have a few guests such as Chen Qiming and Marshall.

In addition to them, Warner also invited several singers to help Madonna.

Most of these singers are singers under Warner Records.

Among them is the singer Cher, who became popular in the sixties and seventies.

This middle-aged female singer born in 1946 was silent for a long time in the 80s, and became popular again in the 90s.

This year, he is the first director of the film "If These Walls Could Talk", and he has also starred in the highly acclaimed film "Tea With Mussolini".

A business-minded person, she has used her name and popularity to endorse many products, including fitness videos, perfumes, skincare products and even creative furniture.

The former superstar, who has entered middle age, took the initiative to come up to greet him after seeing Chen Qiming in the lounge.

"Lady Cher, nice to meet you!"

Chen Qiming got up and hugged her.

"Chen, I really didn't expect to meet you here, I like your "My Heart Will Go On" very much, it is really a classic song, just like its name, I believe it will be eternal!"

Xue'er has great respect for Chen Qiming's song "My Heart is Eternal" released last year.

"Thank you, it's my honor to be recognized by you!"

Chen Qi was obviously very modest.

That's what he's always done.

"I heard that your new record is about to be released, do you want to sing a new song later?"

Cher asked.

"Yes, there's a new song to be sung at Miss Madonna's concert!"

Chen Qiming nodded.

"That's great, my daughter is a big fan of yours, she was there with her friends today, and I think she would be very happy to know that you have a new song to debut on this stage!"

Cher smiled and spoke.

After saying that, she smiled again: "She has always wanted a copy of your autograph, can you fulfill her wish?" ”

"Of course!"

Chen Qiming nodded without hesitation, and asked Liu Ciwei to take out a tape of the record released last year and sign his name on it

Originally, he was still wondering how Xue'er got together when he didn't know him.

When he heard this, he immediately understood.

It turned out to be a daughter slave.

In fact, he has encountered many situations like today.

In Hong Kong and Taiwan, he often encounters this kind of situation where celebrities ask him for autographs for their children.

It can only be said that he is now very influential and has begun to have a very large influence among the next generation of fans.

Perhaps, one day, he will also become the youth of these people......

is like the one in the dream who thinks Jay Chou is his youth.

I just don't know what my future status will be......
