JIVE's promotion of the Backstreet Boys is really not very good, but it is not that bad, and it is basically the normal standard of the company.

After all, the Backstreet Boys are a newcomer group, and there are only so many resources they can give, and when they buy the rights to the songs, they have exceeded the budget.

The song "Yellow" was originally given to the backstreet boys, and it cost a lot of money to get this song.

In addition, when they recorded "Yellow", they also recorded two more songs, and the budget was a little over.

Taken together, these factors have led to a reduction in the cost of publicity.

However, the response to the first day of the song's release was not bad, although the CD sales were very average, but whether it was on radio or television, after the music was broadcast, it received a lot of feedback from fans, and most of the fans' feedback was positive.

There are many fans who want to buy the CD of the single "Yellow", but they don't know where to buy it.

……

"Wow, that's a lot of people."

At the ticket gate of the workers' stadium, Xin Dong looked at the long line behind him and couldn't help but sigh.

Li Yuanyuan next to her nodded and said, "There are indeed a lot of people, but the ticket check is early, so I won't delay watching the concert." ”

"Looking at this situation, it is estimated that the tickets are almost sold." Xin Donglai tiptoed around again, "I don't know where the rest of our support club is." ”

Both of them are members of Zhou Yanyan's support association of Normal University, and Li Yuanyuan is also one of the founders, who was the vice president back then, and is now the president.

Generally speaking, most of the people who come to the concert are college students, and today is no exception, and the scene is basically full of young faces.

Shizuka Kudo sang several songs of Zhou Yan in a row, and their support club naturally came to cheer, so there were a lot of people from their support club today, but everyone bought their own tickets and couldn't sit together.

There are several entrances to the gymnasium, and the ticket checks are not all together.

"Don't look at it, I guess a lot of people have already been in." Li Yuanyuan said.

Xin Donglai smiled, "It's okay, I told Liu Yang and them, when we enter the venue in a while, we will light the lighter, so that we will know where they are." ”

Li Yuanyuan rolled her eyes, "Have you not seen a concert for several years, and now the security check is very strict, and you are not allowed to bring lighters in." ”

"It's really fake, I don't know, Liu Yang, this kid told me, bring a lighter in, it can make the atmosphere, I brought it." Xin Donglai was surprised.

"People are afraid of people like you who make an atmosphere, so they ban it."

A few years ago, the concert was indeed possible to bring a lighter in, one year Zhao came to Yanjing to hold a concert, and many people at the scene lit lighters to create an atmosphere, which scared the security personnel at the scene.

After that, it was clearly stated that lighters could not be brought into the concert venue.

While the two were talking, they arrived at the door, and the security personnel clearly told them that the lighter could not be brought in, and Xin Donglai could only obediently put a lighter in his pocket into the basket.

"I bought it for a lot of money." Xin Donglai said distressedly.

Li Yuanyuan smiled, "It's okay, you can come over if you're not afraid of trouble for a while, maybe you can get a lot of lighters." ”

When the security check entered the stadium and saw that many people in the stands were waving glow sticks, Xin Donglai wondered, "Why are there so many light sticks today?" ”

Light sticks are not high-tech, and fans will bring them to concerts in recent years, but there are very few of them, like today, you can see a lot of people waving them as soon as you enter the venue, and they are all pink, Xin Donglai has never seen it.

Not to mention that Xin Dong is here, Li Yuanyuan has never seen it.

And soon, they knew why.

These glow sticks were not brought by the fans themselves, but were placed directly on the chairs by the organizers, Xin Donglai swept around, and couldn't help but exclaim, "There is one for each seat!" ”

When he arrived at his seat, Xin Donglai picked up the light stick and looked at it.

This glow stick is very simple, there are a few small light beads inside, and there is a layer of foam on the outside, and there is also a note pasted on it, which reads "Rainbow in the sky, Changhong in the world, Changhong TV, you deserve it".

"I'll go, there's an ad on it."

Changhong TV is very famous, this advertising slogan is also familiar, Xin Donglai didn't expect to see it here.

Li Yuanyuan also picked up the light stick on the seat, and then saw the advertising slogan on it, and then couldn't help but sigh, this is really a unique concert.

No wonder the concert is so big, each seat is placed with light sticks, it turned out to be advertising sponsorship, it is estimated that these light sticks not only did not cost the organizer money, but also made money for the organizer.

Such a special advertisement, hundreds of thousands of advertising fees Changhong always has to give, these glow sticks definitely don't need so much money, and this advertisement is not temporary, Li Yuanyuan can imagine that the news will report on this form in the future.

Neon people's concerts are really different, but they are deeper than the routines of domestic singers, and domestic singers really have to learn from them.

In fact, Li Yuanyuan misunderstood, the matter of light sticks has nothing to do with neon singers, and there is no such thing in neon, the reason why the organizer will do this is completely Zhou Yan's opinion.

The organizer also contacted several brands to sponsor, and in the end, Changhong gave the most sponsorship fees, so Changhong was decided.

In order to sponsor Shizuka Kudo's two concerts in Yanjing, Changhong not only produced more than 100,000 light sticks, but also provided more than 2 million sponsorship fees.

"I'll try to open it."

Xin Donglai found the switch, and after turning it on, the glow stick lit up, and now it was not dark, and the color of the glow stick was relatively dull, and it didn't look special.

"Turn it off first, and the concert will start in a while, and the power will be out."

"It's okay, I see someone is still glowing sticks."

At this moment, someone in the aisle is holding a large stack of glow sticks, and they are handing them out, and whoever reaches out to ask for them will definitely give them.

It's a hot month in June, but the air in the stadium gets cooler as the sun goes down and the heat goes down.

By half-past seven, the sky was slowly dimming, and the glow sticks lit up inside the venue became conspicuous.

The glow stick is really nothing special when you look at it alone, but when tens of thousands of glow sticks are lifted together on the scene, the visual shock brought to people is completely different.

By eight o'clock, it was getting dark and the scene was plunged into a sea of pink.

At this time, a burst of footsteps suddenly sounded in the direction of the stage.

Hearing this voice, the audience, who were still noisy, quieted down, staring intently at the stage, waiting for the arrival of the protagonist tonight.

The footsteps grew louder and louder, and finally there was a knock on the door.

Squeak –

A beam of light hit the center of the stage, and Shizuka Kudo, wearing a suspender leaf dress, appeared there.

Shizuka Kudo carries a handful of ukulele with a bright smile on her face, living the image of a girl next door.

Instead of speaking, she raised her hands, made a trumpet, and shouted to the audience, "One, two, three!" ”

When the word "three" fell, the live music sounded, and she began to play the ukulele, and soon began to sing.

"I remember the lights of that concert

I still remember that cool late autumn

Remember when the crowd pushed you towards me

……”

The screams at the scene, several beats late, finally rang out at this moment.

At this time, the lights were also given to the back of the stage, and the audience realized that there was also an orchestra brought over to the scene.

Shizuka Kudo has been famous for a long time, I don't know how many stages I have experienced, I have seen a lot of big scenes, and I have been very good at typhoons.

The song "Small Hands Holding Big Hands" is originally a light type, and it is also particularly suitable for Shizuka Kudo's typhoon.

The melody of this song is simple and catchy, so when Shizuka Kudo was singing, the audience also sang along with it, and the atmosphere of the concert came up at once.

The reason why "Little Hands Holding Big Hands" was arranged in the first song is also due to this consideration, and this song is very suitable for the hot scene.

This song, even people who rarely listen to it, can probably sing along with the sentence "You are my dream, like the wind in the north".

Xin Donglai likes this song very much, and has been singing along since the beginning of the concert, and he sings it loudly.

Although many people at the scene were following the chorus, Xin Donglai was by his side, so Li Yuanyuan heard his voice most obviously.

Li Yuanyuan couldn't help but roll her eyes, she was spending money to buy a ticket to listen to Xin Donglai sing.

……

After singing the first song, Shizuka Kudo waved her hand to the audience, and then said with a smile, "Hello everyone, I'm Shizuka Kudo, thank you for coming to my concert today." ”

Hearing Shizuka Kudo's pronunciation, the audience was a little surprised, they didn't expect Shizuka Kudo's Chinese to be so good.

Although her pronunciation is very good when she sang just now, singing and talking are two different things after all, and there are many foreigners who can pronounce it when they sing, but when they speak, they are exposed.

On the one hand, singing has a tone and can cover up some pronunciation problems, on the other hand, the lyrics are fixed and can be memorized completely.

Of course, Shizuka Kudo's opening sentence can also be memorized.

However, Shizuka Kudo continued to speak, "This is not the first time I have come to Yanjing, I spent a long time in Yanjing last year to record the album "The First Dream", maybe I walked on the streets of Wangfujing before, and I met some of you. ”

After saying this, the audience was really surprised, and many people's eyes widened.

It's impossible to say that there is no accent, and it is obvious that there is still a problem with Kudo Shizuka's pronunciation, but it is not easy to finish such a long paragraph at one time.

The point is that the order in which Shizuka Kudo speaks is basically no problem.

Hearing her words, many people also sighed, no wonder she has good Chinese, it turns out that "The First Dream" was recorded in Yanjing.

Shizuka Kudo's words were also very clever, mentioning specific place names such as Wangfujing, and saying that they might have met, which immediately shortened the distance with the audience.

"This song just now is called "Little Hands Holding Big Hands", I believe you should have heard it, I heard a lot of people sing along, so I was very moved, this song was written by a good friend of mine, and I liked it when I first heard it."

When Shizuka Kudo was heard mentioning "good friends", there was a burst of heckling at the scene.

"Roar~"

Someone even called out Zhou Yan's name.

Sure enough, many people have heard about the scandal between Shizuka Kudo and Zhou Yan.

It has been reported on the news many times before, after all, Shizuka Kudo has publicly "shown love" many times.

"Will I be here today?" Xin Donglai turned his head and asked Li Yuanyuan.

The sound at the scene was too loud, and Li Yuanyuan couldn't hear what Xin Dong was saying.

"What did you say?"

"I said, the weekly assembly will not be there." Xin Donglai raised his voice.

"Possibly, it is estimated that it will be in the VIP area of the infield."

There is no big screen at the concert, and there will be no close-up scenes for the guests on the scene.

Shizuka Kudo, who was on stage, heard the audience heckling, and her eyes were bent into crescent moons, and she was very happy.

Perhaps, if everyone knew that she was with Zhou Yan, they would also offer their blessings.

She didn't talk too much, then she took the ukulele off and said, "The next song, and it's also a song that I like very much, crying, I hope you can like it." ”

The song "Crying" was originally a song by Miyuki Nakajima, and after Shizuka Kudo covered it the year before last, the single sold more than one million copies, which was very popular, and this time they also filled in the Chinese lyrics of the song and put it in the Chinese album "The First Dream".

"The First Dream" has a total of ten songs, but during this time, Ogi Production helped Shizuka Kudo make two Chinese songs, both of which were made by filling in the previous neon songs with Chinese lyrics.

But even so, only twelve songs will definitely not support a full concert, so Shizuka Kudo also covered several songs by other singers, mainly Teresa Teng's songs.

Because of singing Teresa Teng's song, the audience couldn't help but feel a little depressed, because Teresa Teng had just passed away at the beginning of last month.

It's not that Ogi Productions wants to rub off on the popularity of Teresa Teng's death, the song list of the concert has been set in advance, and several of Teresa Teng's songs began to practice last year by Shizuka Kudo.

No one expected that Teresa Teng would die in her early forties.

After singing "He Rijun Comes Again", Shizuka Kudo also proposed that the audience turn off the light sticks and mourn for Teresa Teng for a minute.

In any case, this popularity was also rubbed by mistake, and the whole concert, whether it was positive, brisk, or sad, mobilized the audience's emotions.

When the concert was coming to an end, Shizuka Kudo came up with a different set of clothes, which was different from the style of the previous sets, and this set of clothes was very gorgeous.

The dark blue long skirt, the skirt is like a starry sky, compared to the previous fresh and sweet, Kudo Shizuka at the moment looks mysterious and bright.

The height is not enough, the heel comes to make up, Kudo Shizuka wears a pair of high heels with a heel height of 12 cm and a platform, but the tulle on the outside of the skirt covers the high heels, and the skirt has a high waistline, which makes her look quite tall.

If it weren't for Shizuka Kudo to speak, the audience who was far away would have thought that it was a different person.

After changing her outfit, Shizuka Kudo's voice seemed to have changed, becoming quiet and calm.

"The next song is still written by my good friend, "Walk with Me", I hope you like it."

In the simple opening remarks, Shizuka Kudo sang with the microphone.

The audience found out that Shizuka Kudo was actually singing a cappella, and there was no accompaniment on the spot.

Could it be that the sound system in the field is malfunctioning?

But looking at Shizuka Kudo's reaction, it doesn't look like it's out of order.

Is it just a cappella?

"Say goodbye

The train on the water is almost there

On the way to the future

……”

When Shizuka Kudo finished singing four sentences, the piano suddenly sounded at the scene.

When the piano sounded, the audience did not react, because the piano accompaniment was nothing special.

But when the lights of the stage hit the side behind Shizuka Kudo, there was a burst of exclamations from the scene.

Under that light, the lifting platform slowly rose from the ground.

One piano, one person.

The man was wearing a black suit, facing the audience from the side, and some people immediately recognized it as Zhou Yan.

Many people don't actually recognize who it is, but when they hear someone screaming, they follow suit.

At this time, Shizuka Kudo said with a smile, "Let's welcome - Zhou Yan!" ”

Hearing Zhou Yan's name, the screams at the scene became even louder.

Amid the exclamations of the audience, Shizuka Kudo lifted her skirt and walked in the direction of the piano, with slow, firm and elegant steps.

As she walked, her singing did not stop.

When she finished singing the first stanza, she walked to the piano.

Shizuka Kudo leaned sideways slightly, leaning on the piano, her eyes were on Zhou Yan.

Li Yuanyuan looked at the stage, Zhou Yan, the piano, and Shizuka Kudo, forming a beautiful picture.

No wonder Shizuka Kudo would change into this outfit, it turned out to be to match Zhou Yan and the piano.

Playing and singing, such a picture makes them little girls so excited.

It can be clearly felt that after Zhou Yan appeared, in the sound of screams at the scene, the girls occupied an absolute dominant position.

Many viewers didn't expect that there would be such a surprise.

Zhou Yan originally just lowered his head and played the piano seriously, but halfway through playing, he looked up and glanced at Shizuka Kudo.

This pair of eyes didn't matter, but the girls below were so excited that the screams increased by a few decibels.

After the song "Walk with Me" was finished, Shizuka Kudo said with a smile, "Thank you to our good friend Mr. Zhou Yan, Mr. Zhou, say hello to everyone." ”

Zhou Yan also turned around and waved to the audience.

Shizuka Kudo handed her microphone to Zhou Yan again, and Zhou Yan said into the microphone, "Good evening, everyone, I'm Zhou Yan." ”

After the wave of applause passed, Zhou Yan continued: "Miss Kudo is a very good singer who works very hard, and I am honored to be able to collaborate with her on these songs. Today is her first concert in China, but it's certainly not the first one...... At least one more next week. ”

The joke was so cold that many people didn't react.

Zhou Yan didn't care about the audience's reaction, and continued, "I hope everyone can continue to support Miss Kudo, and I believe that she will definitely give back to everyone with more beautiful songs and wonderful stages." ”

Shizuka Kudo put the microphone back and said with a smile, "Then will you still write songs for me?" ”

Then she quickly sent the microphone to Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan smiled and nodded, "Definitely." ”

Hearing this, the audience screamed again.

"Whoa, whoa—"

"Then it's a deal."

Shizuka Kudo smiled and didn't leave Zhou Yan any longer, she gave way to the side and walked out of the range of the lifting platform, "Let's give Mr. Zhou a round of applause again." ”

Zhou Yan also waved his hand, and then slowly descended with the lifting platform. (End of chapter)
