Because there was no plan to perform outside the concert hall, naturally there was no stage.

However, the staff had cleared an open space, and Zhou Yan led everyone in the orchestra to the middle of the open space, and there was no microphone or megaphone, so Zhou Yan raised his voice and said, "In order to thank everyone for their enthusiasm, we decided to play a piece for everyone outside the concert hall." ”

On the way here, they had already agreed that the first thing to do was to play "Kite", because there was no piano, so they played an ensemble version of cello and violin.

Since Zhou Yan appeared with the members of the orchestra, the audience at the scene was very excited, and many of them waited outside for most of the day.

The most excited person should be the local, because he pulled a lot of people, and swore that after the orchestra finished the performance in the concert hall, it would also perform outside.

If Zhou Yan didn't show up in the end, then he was a liar, and even if those people didn't come to trouble him, he would be embarrassed himself.

Fortunately, Zhou Yan and the orchestra finally appeared, and Casa kept saying to the people next to him, "I'll just say that he will appear, so I didn't lie to you." ”

The open-air performance, and it is temporary, without any equipment addition, the effect is definitely not as good as in the concert hall, but everyone doesn't care about this, as long as they see Zhou Yan appearing in the performance, they are very satisfied.

After the end of a sad song "Kite", people were at peace again.

Outside the concert hall, everyone's encore approach is much more straightforward.

Inside the concert hall, everyone just applauded and called Zhou Yan back to the stage with applause, but outside the concert hall, everyone directly shouted "one more".

Zhou Yan originally prepared three tunes, so naturally it was as they wished.

After that, they played two more songs, one was "Drinking the Yangtze River Water Together" and the other was "Thoughts Through Time and Space".

The reason why he played these two pieces was naturally out of Zhou Yan's selfishness, and he still wanted to promote this oriental style of music abroad.

The effect is still good, and many people have become interested in this particular genre.

After the three pieces were played, Zhou Yan led the orchestra members to start the curtain call.

Although there were still many audience members shouting for another one, Zhou Yan and they did not come back this time.

At this point, the first performance of "The Sixth Sense Global Tour" came to a successful conclusion.

Everyone went backstage, rested for a while, and then returned to the hotel.

After going back, Zhou Yan specially looked for Huo Jianqi and asked about today's live movie shooting.

Huo Jianqi said with a smile: "The shots have been all shot, wait until the film is washed out, and then see if there is any problem." ”

When the film is shooting, you can only have a general feeling, and as for whether the effect can be satisfactory, you have to wait until the film is washed out.

Before coming to London, they had already contacted the place where the film was washed, which was Phantom Entertainment, which was also the company that washed the film for "Sense and Sensibility".

"Well, make sure as soon as possible, and now if there is a problem, there is still a chance to remedy it."

They also have a concert in London, and if this one doesn't get a good shot, the next one will have a chance to make up for it, and if they miss the next show, it won't be easy to do later.

"I understand, I'll be sure as soon as possible."

Zhou Yan nodded, "If you are sure that there is no problem, then you can hurry back to Yanjing with the film, and leave all the editing to you." Once you're done with that, you're ready to dive into your own filming. ”

The preliminary preparations for "Winner" have all ended, and they can be started at any time, if it weren't for the refilming of "Spring of the Cattle Herding Class", Huo Jianqi would have started filming with the crew.

"Hey, I'm not in a hurry for my movie, the main thing is to do things here first." Huo Jianqi said with a smile.

"You can just coordinate it yourself."

Although Huo Jianqi said that he was not in a hurry, Zhou Yan knew in his heart that this guy must have died in a hurry.

For the movie "Winner", Huo Jianqi has waited for many years, and the mood of directing a long-form movie for the first time may be more nervous, excited, and urgent than on the wedding day.

However, Zhou Yan believes that Huo Jianqi can coordinate the work.

The two were chatting when Zhang Youan knocked on the door and came in.

Huo Jianqi knew that Zhang Youan must have something to say to Zhou Yan at this time, so he said to Zhou Yan, "Then I'll go back first." ”

"Well, you should rest early."

After Huo Jianqi left, Zhang Youan said, "Tonight's performance was very successful, I have contacted the media, and it won't be long before the news can be reported." ”

"Lao Zhang, thank you for your hard work. By the way, what's going on with the Stins, and when did you have a relationship with them? Seizing the opportunity, Zhou Yan asked his questions.

"I don't have a relationship with them, but we were introduced to each other by Dave Cullen from Warner's UK office. Although our cooperation with Warner has not been reached, the friendship still needs to be handled. Zhang Youan said.

"What did this Dave Cullen introduce you to?" Zhou Yan asked again.

"Looking for cooperation opportunities, our company can't rely on you alone, we must invest in other movies, this Sting couple is also thinking about investing in movies now, we must be right to contact and contact." Moreover, Sting is also well-known in European and American music festivals, which may be able to help you break into this market. ”

Hearing that the Stings were investing in movies, Zhou Yan didn't take it seriously, but just said to Zhang Youan: "After all, it's not our own territory, and when cooperating with these foreigners, we still have to be careful." ”

In fact, Zhou Yan still thinks that Zhang Youan should focus more on music and worry less about movies, but he is not Zhang Youan's leader after all, and he can't control what Zhang Youan does and what he doesn't do.

"Don't worry, I still know a lot about them."

Zhou Yan nodded, "I'll go to the Water Rat Bar tomorrow." ”

"Okay, I'll let someone arrange it."

……

The next day, Zhou Yan took Ma Dongfang and Yue Lin to the water rat bar.

The popularity of this bar is quite high, if it wasn't arranged in advance, Zhou Yan and they would have to queue up when they entered.

Jeff Brown got Zhou Yan a booth for them, and then arranged for them to have a little wine.

Looking at the wine on the table, Ma Dongfang asked, "Senior brother, can you drink some tonight?" ”

"Well, in moderation."

There were neither performances nor rehearsals for these two days, and Zhou Yan allowed them to indulge a little.

Hearing Zhou Yan loosen his mouth, Ma Dongfang smiled happily and was busy opening the wine.

After pouring himself and Zhou Yan a cup, he asked Yue Lin again, "Lin Zi, do you want to have a drink?" ”

Yue Lin waved his hand, "I don't need it." ”

In fact, most of the people in the orchestra don't drink, especially like Yue Lin and Zhang Zuoquan, their lives are very regular, not to mention drinking, and they rarely sleep late.

Yue Lin was able to come over with him tonight, which was already quite a surprise to Zhou Yan.

The three of them drank for a while, and there was a commotion not far away, Ma Dongfang looked in that direction and said, "It seems that a celebrity is here?" ”

Zhou Yan also turned his head to look, and then saw a familiar face, this is not the heroine Catherine Zeta-Jones in "Stealing the Day", she also played "Zorro's Mask".

However, now that "Stealing the Day" and "Zorro's Mask" have not been filmed, she should not be very famous.

"Senior brother, do you know her?" Ma Dongfang asked.

Zhou Yan shook his head, "I don't know." ”

"It's very good-looking, there are no beautiful women here in London, she is top-notch."

Ma Dongfang said that there are no beauties in London, this is not bragging, indeed in the aesthetics of the Chinese, London can rarely see eye-catching beauties, many girls are far away to see OK, but close up is not very good.

Catherine is not a traditional blonde and blue-eyed beauty in the West, her hair color is dark, although she is quite tall, but her skeleton is not big, and she belongs to the appearance of a combination of things and things, so Ma Dongfang thinks she is good-looking.

Zhou Yan only glanced at it, and then didn't pay attention to it anymore, he came here today to relax and relax, and by the way, he watched the performance of the backstreet boys, and didn't have the heart to pay attention to anything else.

Ma Dongfang was very curious, he stared in Catherine's direction for a long time, and then speculated, "She shouldn't be particularly famous, although some people know her, but it didn't cause much of a sensation." ”

"Maybe people here in London have a smaller reaction to celebrities." Yue Lin said.

Ma Dongfang disagreed, "I don't believe it, I watched the documentary, when the Beatles traveled, many people watched, and they were still not famous enough." ”

Zhou Yan said with a smile, "It should still be a little famous, but there are many actors and singers in London, so everyone's reaction to celebrities who are not particularly famous is average." ”

In fact, it's the same everywhere, a star who is not very famous is not easy to be recognized when walking on the road, and since Catherine can be recognized, it proves that she should be somewhat famous in the UK.

Ma Dongfang looked around and said, "This bar can't hold too many people." ”

"Squeeze it, there are still a few hundred people."

"That's a lot of cramping." Ma Dongfang pouted.

Soon, Ma Dongfang realized that he was wrong, and as the performance time got closer and closer, the bar became more and more crowded, and even people stood next to their booths.

Seeing that there were people next to him, Ma Dongfang pulled the corners of his mouth, "So we won't see the show for a while." ”

"If you want to see a show, you have to stand up."

"Well, it seems that the only benefit of the booth is that it is not too crowded."

After a while, there was a loud applause and shouting in the bar, no need to ask, it must be the backstreet boys who came out, and someone could be heard shouting the names of the backstreet boys at the scene.

Ma Dongfang stood up directly and looked in the direction of the boy in the back street, while Zhou Yan and Yue Lin were still sitting firmly in their seats.

"Hello everyone, we are backstreet boys from the United States, and it's a pleasure to ......"

After an opening line, the Backstreet Boys begin to sing.

In the beginning, they sang cover songs, and then they started singing singles such as "We've Got It Goin On" that had not yet been officially released.

I have to say that these customers in London bars really have a lot of emotional value, although some of the songs sung by the backstreet boys are not familiar to them at all, but they will still jump and shout, which is very popular.

Not to mention the English song, even if the song "Good Luck Comes" is played live, the audience will still follow and dance along.

But anyway, they are still relatively unfamiliar with these songs, so they can't sing along, they can only shout along.

It wasn't until the sixth song was sung that Kevin, the leader of the group, gasped slightly, "The next song, maybe you will be familiar with it." ”

Before Kevin could finish speaking, someone called out the name of the song.

“yellow！”

“yellow！”

After all, it was a single that won the championship in the UK for two consecutive weeks, and it had a strong base in London, and it was played everywhere on TV and radio during this time.

Seeing the reaction of the audience, Kevin also smiled, this song is indeed very popular with British fans.

The enthusiasm of the audience cannot be reflected in the cold data.

"That's right, it's Yellow, I hope you like it."

After Kevin finished speaking, it didn't take long for the prelude to that classic to sound.

The intro to this guitar solo is so good that when the Backstreet Boys are playing, the audience is reluctant to talk and wants to listen to this part.

When the prelude was over and the song sounded, the audience sang along for the first time.

“look at the stars

look how they shine for you

……”

The song has a simple melody, catchy, and is very easy to sing along.

When most of the audience sang along, the atmosphere suddenly became different, before everyone cheered, just habitually to give face, but now it is a completely spontaneous response.

For a good concert, the chorus is a very important part, and even the singer doesn't have to speak, as long as the audience can sing along all the time, it will feel worth the ticket price.

I have to say that the feedback from European and American audiences is really good, not to mention whether the song is good or not, the applause is certain.

This is still in London, and if you move to a city like Los Angeles, the audience feedback will be better.

The audience not only sang along, but also helped with the harmony, which also made the Backstreet Boys members sing, and the youngest Nick almost rushed into the crowd with a microphone.

When "Yellow" was finished, captain Kevin held the microphone and said, "Do you like this song?" ”

"I like it."

"I like it very much."

After hearing the audience's answers, Kevin continued, "It's a great honor tonight that Y-chou, the creator of this song, is also here at our Water Rat Bar. ”

When they heard the name "Y-chou", most people were at a loss, while a small number of people had already started shouting.

“Y-chou！”

Originally, everyone was still wondering, where is this Y-chou, Kevin has already pointed to the direction of the booth where Zhou Yan and the others are sitting.

Many people looked this way, and in the end, someone locked on Zhou Yan and a few of them.

The bar was very crowded, but there was a walkway between the backstreet boys and Zhou Yan.

Through the aisle, Zhou Yan also saw a few backstreet boys for the first time tonight.

With so many people looking at him, Zhou Yan still held his cap and waved at the audience, which was regarded as a greeting.

But it was just a simple greeting, and the audience didn't seem satisfied, the aisle was still empty, and everyone was staring in this direction.

Under everyone's gaze, Zhou Yan sighed slightly, got up and walked in the direction of the backstreet boys.

When he stood up, the cheers of the audience rang out again.

“Y-chou！ Y-chou！ ”

Let's just say that these foreigners like to join in the fun, and most of them don't know who Zhou Yan is at all, but they still shout his name very loudly.

When Zhou Yan walked over, several members of the Backstreet Boys greeted Zhou Yan one after another, and then Kevin handed the microphone to Zhou Yan, "Mr. Y, thank you very much for being able to come to the scene today." ”

Zhou Yan took the microphone and said with a smile, "Thank you to the Backstreet Boys for bringing us such a wonderful night, the performance just now is very memorable, the song "Yellow" was written by me last year, and finally went around to the Backstreet Boys. I'm also glad that this song was given to them to sing, and they did a great job and exceeded my expectations. ”

Kevin smiled, "We feel very honored by Y's affirmation. Those who know Y should know that he is a very well-known musician who just gave a very high-quality concert in Chelsea last night and his album of pure music has sold more than 10 million worldwide. ”

Hearing that the sales volume exceeded 10 million, there was an exclamation below.

Pure music is not as good as pop song albums, and many singers have sold more than 10 million records, but pure music albums are not so good.

Kevin did not exaggerate that Zhou Yan's pure music album has indeed sold more than 10 million worldwide, and it has already exceeded 10 million.

After all, he has a lot of albums, in addition to the two theme albums of "Piano Boy" and "Mystic Country", there are also soundtracks of movies such as "Flying Piano Boy" and "Alive".

The "Flying Piano Boy" soundtrack has sold well in Europe, and although it has not done the "Piano Lesson" movie soundtrack, it has sold nearly three million copies worldwide.

Kevin boasted so hard that Zhou Yan reciprocated, and he said with a smile, "I'll give you a paragraph." ”

Then Zhou Yan walked to the keyboard and sat down amid the cheers of everyone.

There is no piano here, so I can only make it together with a keyboard.

After sitting down, he didn't make much preparation, and directly started to play the soundtrack "Sanmao" (old thread) in "Sanmao's Army".

The song is light and funny, which is perfect for setting the mood, and when the song starts, many people can't help but laugh.

In fact, this piece is more suitable for violin playing, but now the conditions are insufficient, and it is not bad to play it on the piano.

The audience was not familiar with this piece, but next, the second piece played by Zhou Yan felt familiar to them.

Zhou Yan played the same light tune next, which was the soundtrack "Stealing Joy" in "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" (Mimak was at the station).

This piece was also included in the soundtrack of "Flying Piano Boy", so many people at the scene heard it.

As soon as the song was played, someone exclaimed.

"I've heard that."

"I've heard it too."

The reason why they feel familiar is not only because they have listened to the album "Flying Piano Boy", but also because the song "Stealing" has been used in many TV shows in Europe and the United States.

Because of this, Zhou Yan also earned a lot of copyright fees.

Many people were surprised to hear the familiar melody, they didn't expect such a song to be written by the same person as "Yellow".

After Zhou Yan played "Whispering Joy", he played "Tears", which is also very popular in the UK, and many people have heard it.

Some evening radio stations also like to use the tune "Tears" when doing some sleep-inducing programs, and many Brits have listened to "Tears" before going to bed. (End of chapter)
