Of course, Du Sheng's support is indispensable for these.
He reposted Girls' Generation's concert promotional photos on the four major platforms, turning away countless passers-by who didn't care much.
In addition, Miracle Records is also working behind the scenes.
The purchase of notices and venue posters alone cost several million.
It can be said that Girls' Generation's move can only be perfect without making any mistakes.
After all, their stage is about touring in the next dozen cities, and they must set a good example.
Hearing the comments from people around him, Du Sheng couldn't help but sigh that the speed of information dissemination was beyond imagination.
Although the number of registered users on Renren has not yet reached an all-time high, the level of activity on the platform has already exceeded its previous level.
Nowadays, people are accustomed to sharing their daily life and expressing their opinions on Renren.com.
Especially after the interest discovery function was launched, people with the same hobbies gathered together to form vibrant interest groups.
These groups not only promote communication among members, but also speed up the flow of information.
Du Sheng originally planned to announce the status of next month's UFC title defense the next day.
Unexpectedly, this news has been put on the Internet by people who knew it in advance.
Apparently some international students or paparazzi got the official notification from the lighthouse country.
As long as you can bring popularity, others will rush to do the hype for you.
This is the first time someone has challenged Du Sheng since he became the UFC middleweight world champion.
Really full of gimmicks.
I have to say that the other party is a real warrior!
But what's a bit regretful is that Du Sheng still doesn't remember the other party's name.
However, the discussion on the external network was quite lively, with Blake, Lydia and other girls still openly supporting it there, triggering another wave of backlash.
And these were also reproduced by some international students.
However, Du Sheng ignored these comments and returned to Nortel unhurriedly.
These girls are going to have a concert the day after tomorrow. If they want to relax tonight, they have to take him along with them.
It's just that the school year happened to be starting recently, so they reported back to school and asked for leave.
As soon as they stepped onto the steps, they saw Liu Shishi, Yang Mi, and Tang Yan jumping up and appearing.
Wearing blue, white and purple dresses, holding hands, they were as beautiful as lotus flowers and attracted many attention.
But after all, this is a place for cultivating artists, and there isn’t much fan mentality to get involved.
Seeing Du Sheng, the three of them immediately quickened their pace to greet him. Yang Mi cheerfully suggested:
"Brother Sheng, let's go to the teaching building and wait for Sissy. She seems to have been left behind by the teacher."
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Yifei ran over with her schoolbag and said angrily:
"Didn't you agree to wait for me together, but when my cousin came..."
Seeing the classmates around her, she stopped the topic in time and suggested instead:
"Why don't we go eat sweet and sour carp together in the evening? I found a new restaurant near the school and the reviews are very good."
Du Sheng agreed with a smile and said:
"Get in the car first, I'll help you put on makeup and disguise yourself.
After dinner, while you still have time, let's go shopping and relax at an amusement park. ”
Hearing this, the four members of Girls' Generation were all excited.
Because they haven't gone shopping together for a long time.
“gogogo!!!”
Liu Yifei cheered:
“Sister Yan will cover all tonight’s expenses!”
"Why me again?"
Tang Yan asked helplessly.
"Who told you to run away after seeing Brother Sheng without waiting for me just now?"
Liu Yifei responded with a smile.
Du Sheng smiled and occasionally interjected.
Every time he gets along with a few girls, he will feel particularly relaxed and happy.
Seeing them laughing and playing, he felt that he was much younger mentally.
After the car started, Du Sheng gently wiped a handful on Liu Yifei’s fair face,
This is to collect her facial bones and prepare to use the "camouflage" skill to make simple silicone masks for them.
So that it would be more convenient for them to go out during their trip to the Lighthouse Country.
"This thing is really good, I want one too!"
Liu Shishi said softly:
"Brother Sheng, my face is very smooth, feel free to touch it."
Yang Mi took out the lipstick box and smiled:
"I also brought my own mint-flavored skin care products, which are more lubricating. Do you want to try them?"
Du Sheng: "..."
That night, he took several girls from Girls' Generation to taste the delicious sweet and sour carp, and then went to the amusement park together.
Although they exclaimed and squeezed Du Sheng every time they rode the Ferris wheel, they enjoyed it.
After finally finishing shopping, Du Sheng even tried various self-produced skin care products brought by Yang Mi.
I have to say, it's really slippery when applied on them.
In particular, two little girls, Tang Yan and Liu Shishi, took advantage of Liu Yifei and Yang Mi's departure to return quietly one after another, hoping that Du Sheng would continue.
Because after experiencing it, it feels really comfortable.
………
August 23, Beijing Workers Stadium.
This landmark building, built in 1994 and completed in 1999, served as the main venue for the "International Year of Peace 100 Singers Concert".
Its scale and facilities were among the best in the world at the time.
Despite the passage of time, the stadium still maintains its first-class standards and its internal equipment is still advanced.
Cui Jian sang "Nothing" here, ushering in a new era of mainland pop music.
Nowadays, being able to hold a concert in such a historic and prestigious venue is a dream opportunity for many artists.
There is a saying circulating in the industry:
"If you have the ability, go to the Workers' Stadium and sing!"
This is not only a recognition of the singer's strength, but also a test of his popularity and influence.
For Girls' Generation, this concert has special meaning.
It depends on this time whether they can complete their transformation and be truly recognized as a front-line status by both inside and outside the industry.
In order to ensure the success of the concert, preparations have been started several months ago.
The team chose to jointly plan with the most professional performance company in Beijing and obtained the necessary approvals through the fast track.
The Workers' Gymnasium has strict standards for performances, which not only require artists to have excellent artistic talent, but also have a good public image.
Any obvious bad behavior will be rejected.
Therefore, the stars who can appear on this stage are often the best in the industry.
They understand the importance of maintaining their personal reputation.
The venue can accommodate more than 30,000 spectators, but considering the overall layout of the concert, the actual ticket sales are limited to 30,000.
Even so, this is an event that should not be underestimated.
Depending on the performance size, seating area and other factors, the ticket price is roughly between 180-1280 yuan.
If we take the average, the total revenue from 30,000 tickets will reach about 20 million.
Of course, an attendance rate of over 70% is considered a sign of success.
Judging from previous performances, except for a few artists such as Du Sheng and Han Xin who can achieve a full house, there is no guarantee for others.
The pre-sale of tickets for Girls’ Generation concert started one month ago.
With a certain number of complimentary tickets, we can conservatively achieve an attendance rate of 80%.
This achievement is enough to make many first-line singers envious and jealous.
The concert is scheduled to officially start at 7 p.m., and multi-channel security checks will be open from 4 p.m.
Outside the concert venue, fans who arrived early had already lined up in a long line.
Armed with glow sticks and cheering items, they excitedly discussed the upcoming performance.
Someone brought a banner that said, "Always support Girls' Generation." Some people wore T-shirts with the members’ names printed on them and heart-shaped designs on their faces.
The noise was filled with tension and anticipation, as well as a long-lost excitement.
For many fans, this concert is not only a performance by their idols, but also a testimony of their youthful years.
A fan who came from other places said emotionally:
"I have been listening to their songs since my third year in high school. Now that I am no longer in college and working, I still can't help crying every time I hear their voices.
This time I must see them stand on the stage with my own eyes and fulfill my long-cherished wish. ”
Another fan said:
"I hope they can sing more classic sweet songs at the concert. It is a melody that accompanies happy growth. Each section carries too many memories."
"No matter what they sing, as long as I can see them standing on the stage up close, it is the happiest thing!"
As night falls, the lights in the venue gradually turn on.
The big screen on the stage started playing Girls' Generation's classic MV.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
By around 6 o'clock in the evening, most of the seats were already occupied by enthusiastic audiences.
Holding such a large concert is no easy task.
In particular, security work requires the coordination of multiple parties, and resources and connections are indispensable.
Nearly 30,000 enthusiastic spectators waved glow sticks, forming a bright sea of stars.
That sight is undoubtedly the highest compliment that can be paid to any performer.
That night, Du Sheng will appear backstage at Girls' Generation's concert as a special guest.
Inviting friends in the entertainment industry to help out is a common practice in the entertainment industry.
The identity of the guests is usually kept secret until the last minute to create surprises.
However, the guest list for Girls' Generation's first concert has already been announced.
Du Sheng's participation has become a highlight to attract fans.
This is one of the reasons why ticket sales are booming.
As for the subsequent concerts in Modu, Hangcheng, Wucheng and other places, the guest information will continue to remain mysterious, leaving the audience with more expectations.
Du Sheng's fan base is very large. Although there is a lot of overlap with the fans of Girls' Generation, he still attracts many fans who come here to support him.
At this time, the stadium was actually packed.
It can be seen that this time it was affected a lot by his factors.
In the auditorium, fluorescent screens with the names of Girls' Generation and Du Sheng written on them were raised high, as if calling them to come on stage.
In the dressing room backstage, the four members of Girls' Generation were ready and were sitting casually on the sofa with Du Sheng.
Liu Yifei's first outfit tonight was a gorgeous long dress. She rarely wore heavy makeup, showing a different kind of sexy beauty.
The other three are not bad either, each has his or her own merits.
But the closer they got to the stage, the more uneasy they became.
"Aren't you guys?"
Du Sheng smiled hoarsely and asked:
“I wasn’t nervous before participating in the platter, but now I am nervous?”
Several girls rolled their eyes at him. How could this be of the same importance?
Liu Shishi nodded lightly and said frankly:
"A little bit, I'm afraid something will go wrong."
For a group that has debuted for two years and has appeared on the Spring Festival Gala, this kind of tension is obviously a bit unreasonable.
But sometimes that's the case, the more you pay attention to gains and losses, the harder it is to let go.
Because once they perform poorly, it will be an unforgivable mistake for them.
They had been preparing for this concert for more than half a year, so they were inevitably nervous.
Du Sheng naturally understood their mood.
He thought for a while, got up, fetched a guitar, and said softly:
"It's still early, let me sing a song for you."
The members of Girls’ Generation looked at each other and smiled, and Tang Yan said:
"Brother Sheng, actually you have relaxed a lot after talking to us."
Yang Mi rolled her eyes and said with a smile:
"Brother Sheng, you go ahead and sing. I'll record it as a 'little benefit' for the fans."
Although Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi did not lie, they also smiled.
Du Sheng's gentleness and thoughtfulness always make them feel at ease.
Du Sheng sat down again with his guitar in his arms, tuned it, and began to strum the strings.
He chose the inspirational song "I Believe":
"...
The world is waiting for me to change
Never be afraid of others seeing your dreams
I can achieve everything here..."
The girls listened quietly, immersed in the inspiration conveyed by the lyrics.
As the music flows, their inner tension gradually dissipates, replaced by a warm and overwhelming feeling.
It's like being injected with chicken blood, and I can't wait to go on stage and sing loudly.
Just after the song ended, there happened to be a gentle knock on the door of the room, and the assistant came in to remind him kindly:
"It's almost time, you can go on stage."
Several girls stood up. At this time, they seemed to have a new look, their eyes were full of confidence and light.
All the anxiety and uneasiness I had before have disappeared.
This is the ‘Girls’ Generation’ that represents the splendid dreams!
Full of youthful vitality and vitality.
"Come on, you can do it."
Du Sheng encouraged them with a smile and stood up to prepare.
When he finished applying makeup and approached the frontcourt area, he stopped unconsciously.
The eyes are naturally attracted to the big screen above the stage.
The screen flashed three times quickly, and then a thunderous sound broke the atmosphere.
On the huge fluorescent screen, a deep and vast scene of the universe was instantly displayed.
After a moment, a sunflower as bright as a star slowly emerged. It bloomed in the boundless void, emitting a charming light.
In an instant, the stars turned into a brilliant fireworks, blooming into several light and graceful figures in the sky.
The four beautiful figures are like elves walking out of the painting, so beautiful that it takes your breath away.
“This opening is really amazing!”
Du Sheng admired secretly in his heart.
As the light and shadow gradually became clearer, the images of four girls wearing fresh campus-style dresses emerged.
Their appearance immediately triggered an overwhelming cheer from the audience.
The intense emotion almost blew the roof off.
In addition, the spotlights were shining all over the venue, and the speakers and speakers were turned on, making everyone excited.
The lights gradually dimmed, and a familiar melody began to flow.
As soon as Du Sheng heard the prelude, he knew it was the sweet song "The One I Loved for the First Time".
A spectacular picture is projected on the dreamlike stage.
Du Sheng stood close and could naturally tell that this was a VCG projection screen, but the audience was still shocked.
He also had this kind of visual feast during his last concert at the Dome in Jingjing.
As four girls with exquisite makeup slowly rose from the lifting platform, the enthusiasm of the scene was ignited again.
Cheers and applause came and went, like a scalding wave.
At this moment, Du Sheng deeply felt the fanaticism and passion of the fans. The feeling of shouting together with nearly 30,000 people is indescribable in any words.
In this atmosphere, people let themselves go and any way of expressing joy is not obtrusive.
Du Sheng came to the side and chatted with Liu Xiaoli for a few words, but in view of the noise at the scene, he simply leaned on the left guardrail and quietly enjoyed the feast.
