Chapter 145 Three invitations and three returns
After Li Zongsheng and the others finished speaking, Zhou Yan said with a smile: "Today is not only the first performance of our Yangyin Piano Youth Symphony Orchestra in Taiwan, but also the establishment of our orchestra. The first official performance since then, thank you to Lin Yilian, thank you to Li Zongsheng, and thank you all here for coming here to spend such a wonderful night with us."
"To thank you all, and to commemorate this wonderful night. moment, next, in addition to the program list, I will play another piece for you. The next piece is a little different from the previous pieces, because it is the first time it has been performed in public and has not been performed before. Published anywhere."
"The name of this song is "Missing Through Time". It was composed one day last summer when I was with a good friend, who happened to be the best friend today. My friend is also in the audience.”
Afterwards, Zhou Yan did not introduce who this good friend was. After he put the microphone away, he began to adjust his posture and prepare to play the piano.
The other members of the group were quite surprised because they had never mentioned this part before.
As for "Missing Through Time and Space", they have actually heard it and know the score, but the orchestra has not practiced it.
Off the stage, Wang Zuxian leaned on his chair and looked sideways at Zhou Yan on the stage, just like he did when he watched Zhou Yan's solo in the hotel that night. When Zhou Yan said that his "good friend" was in the audience, Wang Zuxian showed a sweet smile. In the entire concert hall, only she and Zhou Yan knew who this "good friend" was.
Other audience members were also looking at the stage expectantly. What Zhou Yan just said aroused their great interest.
The first time is always wonderful. Today is the first public performance of the Piano Youth Orchestra. It is also the first time the song "Thoughts Across Time and Space" has been played publicly. In fact, it is also the first time for the audience to see it. Go to Zhou Yan to perform.
These first times together, it does feel amazing.
When the song "Missing Through Time" played, in an instant, the music penetrated the hearts of the audience like trickling water, making people feel a sense of longing out of thin air, and their emotions began to follow. The melody floats into the distance with no destination.
A little sad, but also a little comforting.
Many viewers suddenly remembered the previous song "Kite". Although the styles of the two songs are different, the feelings of longing evoked are somewhat similar, except that "Kite" is a bit sadder.
When listening to "Kite", it feels like the person I miss has gone far away and will never come back. It is far away and there is no way to touch it. But when listening to "Missing Through Time and Space", I feel It makes people feel that the person they miss seems to have traveled through time and space and come to them again.
To put it more vulgarly, "Kite" is more reminiscent of family affection, but "Missing Through Time" is more reminiscent of love.
The piece "Missing Through Time and Space" was originally very short, but Zhou Yan expanded it a bit, making it six minutes long, and Zhou Yan also turned it into a symphony version.
In the orchestration of this piece, Zhou Yan added instruments such as bamboo flute, triad, erhu and trumpet, which can better reflect the implicit and deep-rooted longing in Eastern culture.
Actually, Zhou Yan had previously considered whether to perform the symphony version of "Thoughts Across Time and Space" at several concerts this time, but ultimately gave up. On the one hand, it increased the workload of the orchestra members, which may have It will reduce the quality of other songs.
On the other hand, when Zhou Yan was orchestrating this piece, he added too many types of instruments. If it was to be played, their orchestra would have to have a lot more people this time.
The piano solo version is definitely not as effective as the symphony version.
But the audience at the scene had never heard the symphony version. They only thought that this piece of music was very nice, and it was Zhou Yan's solo.
Many viewers came here for Zhou Yan, and of course they wanted to see Zhou Yan’s solo, especially people like Zheng Youqing who had seen Zhou Yan playing piano on the roadside on a variety show before, so naturally they wanted to see Zhou Yan even more. Play another song on stage.
In addition, this piece has the added bonus of being "the first time". They are the first audience to hear it played in public, and the meaning is also different.
Zhou Yan's piano skills are definitely not as good as those of professional performers, but after all, he has the creator's buff, and everyone just thinks it sounds good.
When the song "Missing Through Time" was played, the applause from the audience sounded like thunder.
After bending down to pay tribute, Zhou Yan and conductor Yue Lin retreated to the edge of the stage, but they did not completely step down.
At this time, if the audience’s applause continues, Zhou Yan and Yue Lin will come on the stage again, which is the encore. If the applause stops, or is sparse and not enthusiastic enough, Zhou Yan and Yue Lin will truly exit. , today’s concert officially ends.
But obviously, after Zhou Yan and the others retreated, the applause was still loud.
Many people had never heard a concert in the concert hall before and did not know the etiquette of returning to the concert, but they still applauded enthusiastically, and these applauses came from the heart.
Zhou Yan and Yue Lin didn't let their "encore" last too long. They stood for a while and then returned to the stage again.
Although the encore performance is outside the program list and seems to be a temporary arrangement, in fact, before the concert starts, during rehearsals, several encore songs will be prepared in advance.
Many of the audience had actually stood up and applauded at this time. After Zhou Yan and Yue Lin returned to the stage, they sat down again and stopped applauding because they knew that the performance would continue.
The first piece of the encore is "Flow·Wind", which is a symphony written by Zhou Yan in his second grade.
After Zhou Yan wrote this song, Shi Wanchun was shocked. Why do so many people think that Zhou Yan and Tan Dun are geniuses on the same level? It also started with this song "Flow·Wind".
Although this piece is short, the arrangement is very complex and requires a high level of piano playing. Many students in the college like to play this piece because it shows off their skills.
The orchestration of "Flow·Wind" is all Western instruments. Zhou Yan's bamboo flute has no use, so he arranged a violin for himself, which can be regarded as participating.
When the audience heard "Flow·Wind", they were very surprised because this song was very different from the previous songs... Many of them couldn't tell whether it sounded good or not, but they felt it was very high-end.
Although a musician like Li Zongsheng follows the popular music route, he must know much more about traditional music than the average audience, so he can tell that the level of this piece of music is very high.
This kind of music is truly made by a genius, and it is directly different from ordinary composers. It’s not a question of whether it sounds good or not, but the theory, technology and feeling are all very strong.
After the performance of "Flow·Wind" ended, Zhou Yan and Yue Lin walked off the stage again. The audience's applause still did not stop, and they returned to the stage again.
This time, they played the suite "The Fragrance Floating" that Zhou Yan wrote in school. This is also a bamboo flute concerto, in which Zhou Yan himself is the protagonist.
Many people may think that since the music has been prepared, it is better to just perform it. Why should the audience come up for an encore? Isn’t this hypocritical?
To be said to be pretentious, it is indeed a bit pretentious, but the effect of the performance comes from this seemingly pretentious etiquette. It is just like falling in love, there is no ambiguity or pulling at all, so what’s the point?
Many audiences enjoy this encore process.
...
“Why is there still music inside?”
Outside the concert hall, more than two hundred people gathered in front of the big screen.
The performance played on the big screen has ended for a long time. They are still waiting for the musicians to come out, but the music inside has not stopped, and it has been a long time.
“It should be the encore.”
"If it's an encore, won't it be played outside?" someone asked doubtfully.
A knowledgeable person smiled and said, "The performance on this big screen is not real-time, so the encore is not played."
"Ah, that's it."
"It's pretty good to see the show without a ticket."
"Oh, it's not that I don't want to buy a ticket. I didn't buy a ticket. I thought I was buying tickets on the day, but I didn't know until I came. The tickets are gone,” lamented a young boy.
In fact, he didn’t think he had to buy tickets on the same day, but he felt that the tickets for this concert would not be so easy to sell. After all, the band was not famous and only relied on Zhou Yan. Moreover, when he came last week, he asked the conductor, There were still a lot of tickets left at that time.
Knowing that there were still a lot of tickets, he started to wait and see. He didn’t want to buy tickets too early, fearing that he would suffer losses if he couldn’t come by then. Even if the ticket was refunded, he would be charged.
He never expected that tickets would sell out so quickly in the next few days.
There are many people in the same situation as him. They all think that tickets are not easy to sell, so they are not in a hurry to buy them.
“Is there another one on Saturday?”
"Oh, the tickets for Saturday's show sold out faster and have been sold out for a long time. After all, everyone has a rest on Saturday and has time."
"Then after coming this time, won't Zhou Yan stop coming? ?”
“We’ll go to Xiangjiang later.”
“That’s too far.”
“I don’t know when the encore will end. I still want to see it. As for Zhou Yan, I don’t know if he looks good on TV.”
...
In the concert hall, Zhou Yan and the others were dismissed three times and were invited back three times.
After "Flow·Wind" and "Secret Fragrance Floating" were played, the last song was "Walking in the Snow in Search of Plum Blossoms" which Zhou Yan previously wrote for the TV series "Bao Qingtian".
Actually, Zhou Yan had previously thought about performing the last cover of the song "Eternal Night" that he wrote in school before, but the difficulty was too high and it would be a bit difficult for the current orchestra. Maybe just rehearsing "Eternal Night" 》This piece of music takes a long time.
Therefore, he changed the last song of the encore to the simpler "Walking in the Snow to Seek Plum Blossoms".
After Zhou Yan and Yue Lin left the stage for the fourth time, the applause in the concert hall was still very warm. Obviously, they also wanted Zhou Yan to return for the fourth time.
However, Zhou Yan and the others only prepared these three encore songs, so no matter how loud the audience's applause was, they would not be able to go on stage again.
At this time, the lights in the entire concert hall turned on. The meaning was very obvious, which was to tell the audience that today's concert officially ended here and they could pack up and leave.
Although the audience was very sorry, they also knew that the band could not continue playing forever, and three encores would be enough.
After applauding for a while, some audience members began to leave.
As soon as Zhou Yan got off the stage, Zhang Youan came over and said to him with a smile, "There are many audience members outside the hall who want the orchestra to perform."
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "How many people are there?" People?"
"There are probably more than two hundred people."
Zhou Yan nodded, "There are quite a few, but we are a symphony orchestra, not a singing group, so we are not outside. A good performance.”
In fact, it is not uncommon to give free encore performances to the audience outside the concert hall, but it is usually done by choirs, because the choir only needs one person and does not use instruments.
But in their symphony orchestra, there is no way for many instruments to be performed outdoors. Let’s take the piano for example. You can’t move the piano out just to give an encore performance to people outside.
In addition to the piano, there are many musical instruments that cannot be moved casually.
Zhang Youan smiled and said, "It's okay, just someone in the audience mentioned it, so we don't need to pay attention to it. I'm telling you this to let you know that tonight's concert was very successful."
< br>Zhou Yan thought for a while and said, "Actually, the encore is not completely impossible. Otherwise, I will bring a few people with me and give them two simple parts."
After all, today is their band's first performance. It’s a public performance, and there are so many people outside, so it doesn’t matter if you give them more benefits. When it comes to press promotion, you can write more things.
"Okay, then I'll go tell the audience outside."
After Zhang Youan left, Li Zongsheng and Lin Yilian also came over.
Li Zongsheng shook hands with Zhou Yan, "Teacher Zhou, tonight's performance was perfect, congratulations."
"Thank you." Zhou Yan smiled, "Thank you both for taking the time to come. . ”
“Teacher Zhou is so kind. It is our honor to listen to such a wonderful concert, and I also want to thank you for writing two songs for me, Mr. Du. I said, you are very busy recently, it is really troublesome for you to find time to help write songs." Lin Yilian said with a smile.
Zhou Yan looked at the time and said, "It's really late tonight. Otherwise, we can have dinner together."
"It's okay, it's okay. There is still time after dinner. You are not busy here anymore. Let’s take a chance. Let’s treat you to dinner. In fact, many people in our company really want to get to know you.”
Lin Yilian meant that she wanted to connect herself with Rolling Stone, but Zhou Yan didn’t do this. He just smiled and said, "There will be opportunities in the future."
The two chatted with Zhou Yan for a while and then said goodbye. Then Zhou Yan went to the stage to invite two violinists and two violists to go together. outside the concert hall.
When he got off the stage, Zhou Yan looked specifically at Wang Zuxian's seat and found that she was no longer in her seat.
When Zhou Yan and the others went outside, they found that there were far more than two hundred people present. After the audience who had been in the concert hall came out, they heard that Zhou Yan was going to perform an extra performance, so many of them stayed.
Seeing Zhou Yan and the others coming out, applause broke out. The sound outside was louder than inside the concert hall, because in addition to applause, there were also cheers.
When they were inside the concert hall, the audience was relatively restrained, but outside, the atmosphere was different and they were completely relaxed.
“Zhou Yan, Zhou Yan.”
“Welcome to Taiwan.”
"The performance was particularly wonderful."
Zheng Youqing had been holding back for two hours in the concert hall, but now he finally found the opportunity to shout Zhou Yan's name along with the others.
Zhou Yan smiled and shouted: "Everyone, be quiet."
But the scene was so lively that his voice was like a drop of water falling into the sea, and every splash was like a drop of water falling into the sea. It didn't come out, and except for some spectators near the front who knew he was speaking, no one else heard him.
Seeing that no one heard Zhou Yan's words, these spectators helped him shout, "Stop talking, stop talking."
But it was no use.
Zhou Yan had no other choice, so he raised his bamboo flute and played a piece of "Mu Flute". This piece of music was brisk and bright, and spread far. Soon everyone was attracted by the sound of the flute and fell silent.
When no one spoke, Zhou Yan spoke again, "Everyone, listen to my command. Starting from the back row, step back ten steps."
This time everyone heard Zhou Yan speak. The people started to retreat, and the others also understood the meaning and retreated together.
After they took ten steps back, they just gave way to the top of the steps, so that Zhou Yan and the others were positioned higher than the audience, and the audience could also see Zhou Yan.
At this time, the staff brought the loudspeaker. Zhou Yan picked up the loudspeaker and said, "It's very cold tonight. It's not easy for everyone to listen outside for such a long time. Because of the limited conditions, the entire orchestra cannot come out." Let’s play for everyone. Only a few of us can play for everyone now.”
“Okay, okay, no problem.”
“It’ll be fine with you.”
… …
Zhou Yan nodded and briefly said a few words to Wang Feng and the others, and then they started to play a medley. These songs were all short passages from "Reply from Heaven".
Each piece of music is very short, but when strung together it lasts several minutes. After the skewering ended, Zhou Yan led them to play a piece of "If Love Has God's Will".
When they played skewers, the audience just listened attentively. When "If Love Has God's Will" played later, some people in the crowd sang along softly.
This song is also very popular here in Taiwan, but few people can sing it. Because it is a Cantonese song, most people can only hum along.
The melody of "If Love Is God's Will" is melodious and catchy. After the first verse, many viewers who had never heard of you before were able to hum along with you.
After the two pieces of music were played, Zhou Yan, Wang Feng and others bowed down to greet the audience, and then waved goodbye.
There are still people at the scene trying to stay, but Zhou Yan and the others really can’t join them.
Performing a concert is a physically strenuous job, and Zhou Yan was a little tired after all the hard work. And they don't wear much. Although the weather in Taiwan is not as cold as Yanjing, it is quite cold at night. If you stay outside for a long time, you might get sick.
If the performance the day after tomorrow is affected due to illness, then the gain outweighs the loss.
……
Zheng Youqing and the others were about to disperse after watching Zhou Yan leave. A man in his thirties stopped her and asked, "Little girl, what was the name of the song just now? I see you are all singing along."
"The second song is called "If Love Has God's Will", and Anita Mui also sang this song." Zheng Youqing replied.
"Oh, that's it, this song was written by the same person just now?"
"His name is Zhou Yan, he is a very powerful composer." Zheng Youqing curled his lips , this person doesn’t even know Zhou Yan, but he has been listening here for such a long time, and when he was trying to persuade him to stay, this guy seemed to be shouting quite fiercely.
Xu Linru also smiled and said, "Well, the music tonight was all written by Zhou Yan. He is really, really good."
“That’s really amazing.”
“Many of the songs in it are in the music album "Piano Boy". If you want to listen to it, you can go to the video store to buy one and listen to it. It is definitely worth the money. "Zheng Youqing seized the opportunity and began to promote Zhou Yan.
The man nodded, "Well, I will go to the video store tomorrow to buy a copy. It is indeed very good."
In fact, many viewers at the scene were like this man and did not know Zhou Yan , I was just passing by here and saw a lot of people, so I came to join in the fun.
But because of Zhou Yan’s subsequent performance, he became interested in him and even became a fan. On the one hand, the music is really good, and on the other hand, the atmosphere at the venue is very good.
...
After the performance, the band did not celebrate and went back to the hotel directly. There was another performance the day after tomorrow.
As soon as Zhou Yan returned to the hotel, he received a call from Wang Zuxian. She had already returned home.
“I really wanted to find you just now, but there were too many people.”
“Then you don’t have to walk so fast.”
Wang Zuxian laughed and said, "If I don't walk faster, I will be recognized. There was a little girl staring at me several times just now."
"Just say you are a guest at the concert Well, how about you appear as a guest in the next show?"
Wang Zuxian thought for a while and said, "Forget it, what did you say on stage today about the song you wrote with a good friend from Taiwan? If it suddenly appears, they will definitely think too much. "
"I feel like you are overthinking it."
Wang Zuxian also said with a smile, "This is called a ghost."< br>
Zhou Yan smiled and was about to speak when he heard a voice coming from the other end of the phone.
"Xiaoxian, come and see..."
Wang Zuxian said quickly, "My mother is here."
After saying that, she hung up the phone.
Looking at the phone with a busy tone, Zhou Yan smiled and shook his head. He felt like a middle school student secretly falling in love.
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yan took out his notebook and started recording his thoughts on today's concert.
Today is the first public performance of their band. To be honest, there must be some flaws. Some students are still inexperienced. The first few songs were not in good condition and their performance was average.
Ordinary audiences may not be able to hear it, but for Zhou Yan, he can hear every part of the orchestra clearly, and he can immediately spot anyone who has performance problems.
Absolute pitch is of little use to ordinary musicians, but it is still useful to composers or conductors.
I won’t talk about conductors, because conductors have to rely on their ears to hear the performance of each voice and each instrument, and for composers, it is crucial to have good ears when orchestrating.
However, the adjustment speed of these students was pretty good, and their performance in the second half was obviously much better than that in the first half, because they had adapted to the atmosphere of the scene.
After finishing writing today’s performance record, Zhou Yan went to take a bath and then went to bed.
The next morning, they did not go to rehearsal, but gathered together to review yesterday's performance.
Normally Zhou Yan is an amiable senior brother, but when it comes to telling them problems, he becomes a strict teacher who can't get rid of the sand in his eyes.
Holding the book, he started to call the names directly, "Wang Feng, has your hair grown so long that it covers your eyes and cannot see the command gestures? You can't keep up with Yue Yue at the front end of "Nightingale". Lin’s mood, otherwise I will listen to your group leader and find a pair of scissors to cut off your hair.”
Wang Feng quickly admitted his mistake, "I'm sorry, senior brother, I didn't catch up at first. My hair... I will tie it up with a rubber band during the next performance to ensure that my hair will not affect my performance."
< br>Hearing Zhou Yan said that he wanted to cut Wang Feng's hair, several members of the group were laughing. Zhou Yan glanced at Li Biru, who was laughing the hardest, "Li Biru, you are so embarrassed to laugh, how are you better than Wang Feng? There was a period of time in the middle Yes, your bow skills are not as good as those of the students from the primary school affiliated to our school. There is a weak shot that is held up with a bow. Do you want me to tell Director Tang of the primary school affiliated to our school and arrange for you to come over for a few days to 'refresher'?"
Li Biru, who was still smiling with bared teeth, suddenly lost her voice and lowered her head.
There were a few things she didn't do well yesterday, but she didn't expect Zhou Yan to hear it and remember it so clearly. There were so many people, so many instruments, and the performance lasted two hours. , it is so terrible to hear and remember it.
Zhou Yan clicked on two people in succession, and the others did not dare to laugh. Everyone lowered their heads several times, for fear that Zhou Yan would click on them again.
But what was supposed to come had to come. After that, Zhou Yan named several people in succession and talked about their problems one by one.
Some of them, like Wang Feng and Li Biru, do have big problems, but some of them are just nitpicking by Zhou Yan.
But if music is not critical, it is impossible to make progress.
“Actually, I originally thought about adding "Eternal Night" to the program list, but in the end I thought about it. With your current level, you want to express the song "Eternal Night". Okay, it's still a bit difficult. I hope you can be more demanding on yourself. Yesterday's performance was because the songs were relatively simple, so there were no big problems. If you encounter some more difficult songs, you will have big problems. "
Yangyin's students are naturally arrogant, but in front of Zhou Yan, they can only be convinced.
Moreover, what Zhou Yan said was correct and he asked the right questions. They had no way to refute them.
Finally, Zhou Yan glanced at them and said, "We will not practice this morning. The staff will send over the videotape of yesterday's live performance later. You can take a look at it together and find out your own problems."
......
While the students were watching the video tape, Zhou Yan met Lin Youwei, the director of "Walk and Talk".
Seeing Zhou Yan, Lin Youwei gave him a very warm hug.
It's no wonder that Lin Youwei is so enthusiastic. Zhou Yan can be said to be a noble person in his career. The ratings of "Walking and Talking" have never been high before, and there is no competitiveness in the station. Even the leaders are already considering putting their program on Move to a worse time period.
But after Zhou Yan's show, "Walking and Talking" suddenly became different, the ratings also soared, and Lin Youwei's ideas were completely opened up, and the subsequent programs were all based on what Zhou Yan said before Although the effect recorded in that mode is not as good as Zhou Yan's episode, it is much better than before. Now many big-name artists are willing to participate in their programs.
"I went to your concert yesterday. I really enjoyed it." Lin Youwei said.
“Why didn’t you say hello to me?”
“There were too many people there and you were very busy, so I didn’t bother you.”
"What kind of interruption is that?" Zhou Yan smiled and asked, "What are you doing here today?"
Lin Youwei didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point, "I would like to invite you to record another episode of the show. "
Zhou Yanwei said, "As you know, I have been busy with music recently. After tomorrow's concert, I will go to Xiangjiang the day after tomorrow. "
Xiangjiang. The two concerts will be held on Thursday and Saturday just like in Taiwan. They will go there on Sunday, but they need to go there in advance to rest and rehearse.
Lin Youwei expressed his understanding, "I know you are busy. What I mean is to invite in advance and come over to record when you have time later."
Zhou Yan thought for a while and said, "Let's watch it again. I'll tell you if I have time."
In fact, after Xiangjiang ends, Zhou Yan still has to come to Taiwan because of the soundtrack of "Bao Qingtian" He was at the end of his work. He had taken the time to write a lot of music for "Bao Qingtian", but it was not enough.
If you still have time then, you can go to "Walking and Talking" to record an episode, and maybe you can call He Jiajing on.
Actually, Zhou Yan also invited the He family to attend the concert yesterday, but he has been very busy recently and was unable to come.
If you don’t have time by then, you may have to postpone it for a long time. When Zhou Yan wants to promote "The Sixth Sense" later, he can record a program for promotion.
Lin Youwei smiled and said, "You came out to perform for the audience outside last night. I was not there, but I heard someone on the stage this morning. This matter will be reported in the entertainment news tonight."
"Then I want to thank your TV station for helping to promote it."
"Haha, aren't we all our own people?"
In Lin Youwei's view, Zhou Yan and China Television are our own people. , Zhou Yan is also the soundtrack director of "Bao Qingtian".
Zhou Yan doesn’t feel that he is a member of any TV station, and he has no problem cooperating with anyone.
...
That night, China Television’s entertainment news reported on last night’s concert. The entire report was very positive, full of praise. It also strongly praised Zhou Yan for being friendly to the music fans and braving the cold wind to come out to the venue. audience encore.
Finally, I helped promote the concert and informed the audience that there would be another concert on Saturday.
When many viewers went to buy tickets after reading the report, they discovered that the tickets had been snatched up long ago and could not be purchased at all.
However, although it is impossible to buy tickets, due to reports, many people know that there will be a large screen outside the concert hall showing the performance, and Zhou Yan will most likely come out to perform for the audience outside.
So that night, many people who had not bought tickets ran outside the concert hall to watch the performance on the big screen.
The concert hall provided more than two hundred chairs for the audience outside the venue, but they were not enough. There were four to five hundred people present.
This time, Zhang Youan and the others were fully prepared, organizing the scene in advance, and after the performance inside was over, they asked Zhou Yan and the others to go directly to the scene to perform for the audience outside.
Originally, there were four to five hundred people at the scene. Including the audience coming out of the concert hall, more than a thousand people gathered around.
Because they were prepared, Zhou Yan and the others also prepared a few more songs and played them to the audience outdoors.
After the two performances in Taiwan, Zhou Yan and the others rushed to Xiangjiang the next day.
......
In Xiangjiang All-Star Entertainment Company, in the general manager's office, Li Tianyang looked at Xu Shengqiang in front of him with a gloomy expression.
"Is this a good thing you did?"
Xu Shengqiang wanted to defend himself, but seeing the look in Li Tianyang's eyes, he nodded and admitted his mistake, "Mr. Li, this time it was indeed me. Misreading. ”
"Is this a matter of misunderstanding? I heard that when Zhang Youan came, you didn't look good on others."
"Mr. Li, this is absolutely not true. When Zhang Youan came, I They all greeted us with smiles, but it was because he couldn’t accept the conditions we offered that the cooperation didn’t work out.”
Xu Shengqiang also felt wronged. He didn’t think of Zhou Yan at that time. Are tickets for your concert so easy to sell?
But when Zhang Youan came to see him, Anita Mui's album had not yet come out, and no one had heard the songs "If Love Is God's Will" and "Stand With Me".
It's good now that these two songs are extremely popular in Hong Kong, and a few days ago, when Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui were being interviewed by reporters, they made it clear that they would go to Zhou Yan's concert.
With Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui helping to promote the concert, the attention of this concert will definitely not be low.
If Xu Shengqiang had known about the current situation at that time, he would have paid several times more for two concerts, not to mention 150,000 yuan. That would be a sure profit.
But it’s too late to regret it now, the tickets for their concert are all sold out.
Li Tianyang pondered for a moment, and then said, "Go and get two tickets for the front row."
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away." Xu Shengqiang didn't ask Li Tianyang why he wanted the tickets. Agree quickly.
Although the tickets have been sold out, it is still easy for them to get tickets. No one has trouble with money, right?
......
In fact, the stars going to Zhou Yan's concert are not only Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui, but also Tsui Hark and his wife, Zhang Manyu, Li Bihua and others.
I have to say that Anita Mui and Leslie Cheung are really loyal. In fact, during the original interview, the reporter did not mention the concert. They took the initiative to mention it, just to help Zhou Yan promote it.
As for the concerts that have been held in Taiwan, there are not only TV reports on Taiwan, but also reports on Hong Kong. Many of them were actually arranged by Zhang Youan, so naturally there are good things to say about them.
The publicity at this time was of course not for selling tickets, because before Zhou Yan and the others arrived in Xiangjiang, all the tickets for the two concerts in Xiangjiang had been sold out.
This time is purely to promote Zhou Yan and his music. In the past two days, the sales of "Piano Boy" in the video store are better than the previous days.
