Chapter 48 The Girl on the Stage
When Su Cheng's car arrived at the London Stadium, the parking lot of the stadium was almost full of cars of various brands.
The driver even had to drive around a few times before he found a parking space.
It can be seen that this female singer who holds concerts is very famous in the UK.
Sioux City took out the concert ticket, which said Dusty Springfield UK 1978 Tour Concert, and there was a portrait photo on it.
In the photo, she is a middle-aged lady with blond hair, about forty years old, with a very exaggerated hairstyle, which looks a bit like a chicken coop.
Of course Su Cheng didn't know him. After all, most of the people he knew in his previous life were Chinese singers. Although he also listened to English songs, he only listened to their songs and did not recognize the singers.
In fact, since 1963, Dusty Springfield has been the most popular female singer in the UK during this era.
She has a slightly hoarse singing voice, and her favorite music genre is quite mature. She is especially fond of soul songs that were not very popular in the UK at that time, which makes her even more unique.
And because of her love for soul music, she was dubbed the "White Queen of Soul Music".
In the past ten years, she has tried to shift her focus to the beautiful country. Unfortunately, it is not as good as she imagined. Only when she returns to the UK can she feel like a superstar again.
Jodie Foster’s agency not only has a great background, but her agency is the same agency as Dusty Springfield.
It is precisely because of this that Jodie Foster got the opportunity to be a guest singer in this concert.
Through scalpers, Su Cheng bought tickets for several bodyguards to get in, and bought a new one for himself, all with VIP seats.
In fact, scalpers are by no means a social phenomenon unique to China. In developed countries in Europe and the United States, you can see scalpers everywhere, whether outside stadiums or at concert venues. Although most developed countries There are laws that strictly prohibit vote scalping, but scalpers still continue to prohibit it.
Of course, they are not called scalpers, but have a nice name - ticket brokers (Scalper).
No matter what era it is, there are more poor people than rich people.
So, the cheap seats may have been almost sold out, and it is difficult to buy connecting seats, but VIP seats are nearly ten times more expensive than ordinary seats, so you can still buy them through scalpers.
Through the VIP channel, Su Cheng and others quickly entered the interior of the gymnasium.
The location of the VIP seats is indeed great. It is very close to the stage. You can clearly see the performance on the stage without being disturbed by others.
If Su Cheng was a fan of this female singer, maybe he would be very happy, but unfortunately he is not.
At seven o'clock sharp, the concert finally started.
Su Cheng looked around and saw that the ordinary seats were almost full, while there were only a few empty seats in the VIP seats.
On the stage, a middle-aged woman came down from the lift.
Her dress is a bit exaggerated.
However, after she appeared, almost all the fans at the scene screamed with excitement, which shows how popular she is.
This may be similar to the popularity that domestic kings and queens have when they hold concerts.
This singer is very good at rhythm. The first song at the beginning is a very exciting rock music.
In this exciting atmosphere, even if Su Cheng is not a fan of hers, he can happily integrate into the atmosphere. By 8:30 in the evening, perhaps the female singer was finally tired of singing, and it was finally Jodie Foster's turn to take the stage.
As a guest singer, she only had time for one song.
Under normal circumstances, when a singer holds a concert, the guest singers invited are basically celebrities. After all, this is more likely to attract fans to buy tickets.
Obviously, however, the female singer named Dusty Springfield did not need to invite these big names to help out. Instead, she chose to invite newly signed artists from her agency.
After Jodie Foster came on stage, almost most of the audience did not know her, but they applauded in good faith. A young and beautiful beauty will be popular wherever she goes.
Facing tens of thousands of viewers, it was obvious that Jodie Foster was a little panicked when she first took the stage.
She scanned the room with her eyes, looking for someone she was looking for.
However, there were too many people at the scene.
The VIP seats for this concert basically surround the extended stage. Su Cheng’s seat is located in the second row of the VIP area. In fact, the distance from her is only about six or seven meters, which is very close.
So, just when Jodie Foster was looking for something in the distance, Su Cheng stood up and shouted at her: "Come on, you can do it, you can sing very well. Good!”
With such a close distance, Jodie Foster easily found Sioux City even if the scene was very noisy.
The moment she saw Sioux City, Jodie Foster felt that she was no longer so nervous.
She took a deep breath, nodded to Su Cheng, and encouraged herself at the same time, and then nodded to the staff behind the stage.
For a moment, the accompaniment music of IWillAlwaysLoveYou sounded.
The accompaniment music for this song was made by Jodie Foster’s agent overnight the day before, so it was precisely because of this that Jodie Foster had enough time to practice Song.
“ifIshouldstay
Iwouldonlybeinyourway
……”
At the beginning, the audience was very indifferent, but as the climax of the song came, more and more people liked this new song.< br>
Jodie Foster’s voice is very sweet, the kind of sweetness that is unique to girls.
If they weren’t unfamiliar with this song because it was first released, they would have started following it long ago. Singing.
This song, in the original world of Sioux City, was a song sung by the beautiful female singer Whitney Houston in 1992.
In 1992, "IWillAlwaysLoveYou" topped the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart for 14 consecutive weeks and topped the singles charts in more than a dozen countries around the world, becoming the highest-selling female hit in history. Singer single.
This shows how influential this song is.
When the song was finished, the venue finally erupted into a burst of warm applause. The intensity of the applause was no worse than the cheers when Dusty Springfield, the protagonist of this concert, appeared on the stage.
At this moment, Jodie Foster, who only sang one song, conquered many fans present.
The moment she put down the microphone, Jodie Foster was so excited that tears filled her eyes. She looked at Su Cheng below the stage, as if saying: "I did it!"
