Chapter 1091 Beach Performance
While chatting with Li Xiaoyue, Jiang Yuan also learned about the progress of the music festival's preparations.
Regarding the performance venue, after some consideration, it was finally decided to be the largest stadium in the capital.
This allows for the maximum capacity of the audience.
Besides the venue issue, Li Xiaoyue also showed Jiang Yuan the stage design drawings.
A very large screen was used to ensure that even the audience in the last row of the venue could see clearly.
Even concerts by some well-known singers rarely use screens of this quality.
"The screen alone has already broken many records. There probably won't be more than three shows with a screen bigger than this."
When this was mentioned, Li Xiaoyue's words contained not only strong confidence but also a hint of heartache.
After all, luxurious features inevitably come with high costs.
From the venue and the lineup to the hardware, it can be said that the production team spared no expense to do the best.
Even if all the tickets are sold out, there will still be some losses.
In other words, the show made a lot of money during its broadcast; otherwise, it might not have been able to afford it.
After listening to Li Xiaoyue's comprehensive introduction to the music festival, Jiang Yuan was also looking forward to performing at such a venue.
However, there is still some time before the music festival performance.
As she boarded the vehicle arranged by the production team and headed to her accommodation, Jiang Yuan focused her attention on recording the final episode of "Sound Source Live".
"What are the production team's plans for the final performance?" Jiang Yuan asked.
"The last show is actually quite similar to our music festival; it will also be a very large-scale performance." Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoyue also started searching for relevant information on her phone.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan was slightly taken aback by Li Xiaoyue's statement, which sounded quite like something out of a music festival.
After listening to Li Xiaoyue's introduction of the music festival, Jiang Yuan felt that this was the most expensive stage to build during the entire recording of the show.
Noticing the change in Jiang Yuan's expression, Li Xiaoyue didn't keep her in suspense any longer and directly revealed the answer.
“We’re planning a large-scale, free performance on the beach,” Li Xiaoyue said. “And the official promotion will begin in the next two days.”
"This can also be considered as a promotional warm-up for our final music festival," Li Xiaoyue revealed some of the program team's plans.
It's clearly similar to the previous "parade" performance, essentially a direct announcement of this program recording.
"So how big is this?" Jiang Yuan asked uncertainly.
"This is how we set up the stage for this event."
Instead of directly answering Jiang Yuan's question, Zhang Qing explained the stage design for the performance to Jiang Yuan.
Li Xiaoyue pulled up a map of the beach on her phone, pointed to one area, and said, "We plan to set up the main stage for this performance here."
"This area alone can accommodate tens of thousands of spectators."
As she spoke, Li Xiaoyue circled several areas on the map with her finger.
"In addition, we also plan to install speakers and screens in these locations."
"If we can achieve the effect we previously envisioned, there could be hundreds of thousands of spectators in attendance."
As Li Xiaoyue spoke, she also showed Jiang Yuan the preview images that the production team had previously used when envisioning this performance.
"So, in that case, the scale must be even larger than our music festival?" Jiang Yuan thought for a moment and said with some shock.
"That's right, but this is only the theoretical effect. The actual progress will depend on the implementation," Li Xiaoyue said, waving her hand.
"But these places have indeed made preparations, right?" Jiang Yuan asked.
"Yes, the equipment should be set up starting today." Li Xiaoyue nodded.
"It seems like there will definitely be a lot of audience members present," Jiang Yuan said after a moment's thought.
This can actually be seen from the previous "parade" performances.
Since it was a free performance, and the participating singers were all well-known worldwide, it attracted a large audience.
Furthermore, given that the production team announced the performance so far in advance, many fans might fly in from other cities and countries specifically to see the show.
"We hope to achieve the effect we envisioned, and also give the 'Live Sound' program a grand finale," Li Xiaoyue said, her eyes filled with anticipation for the performance.
"So who exactly are the guests on this recording?" Jiang Yuan asked, somewhat puzzled.
While traveling alone in Kunming, Jiang Yuan also tried searching online for information related to the recording of "Live Sound".
The results were mostly posts about being spotted by fans in Kunming, with no information about other singers recording shows found online.
This time, during my visit to Rio, I happened to be there for a major fashion event, which attracted many celebrities.
Therefore, the previous method used by viewers to determine which singers would participate in the recording of "Live Music" based on flight information is no longer effective.
If Jiang Yuan wanted to learn about other singers, she could only do so through Li Xiaoyue.
“We’ve invited Shang Yan’er here,” Li Xiaoyue replied after a moment’s thought.
It has the feel of choosing a key name from among many to answer.
In Li Xiaoyue's opinion, Jiang Yuan would probably be more interested in Shang Yan'er's name.
Indeed, that was the case. Jiang Yuan asked about the lineup of singers not only out of curiosity, but also to find out if any of her acquaintances were among them.
“Our program has basically invited almost everyone from the ‘World Ballads’ lineup,” Jiang Yuan said after a moment’s thought.
At the same time, I also felt a little fortunate.
Fortunately, many other singers participated in the recording of this program. Otherwise, judging from the way the production team invited Ye Xuanqi in one episode and Lu Qingge in another, the program could almost be renamed "Ex-Boyfriend Guide".
Despite a minor internal complaint, Jiang Yuan was still quite happy to be able to participate in the final recording of "Sound Source Live" with Shang Yan'er.
"Who else is there?" Jiang Yuan asked. Li Xiaoyue glanced down at her phone, which clearly displayed information about the singers who participated in the show.
As she flipped through the relevant materials, Li Xiaoyue introduced them to Jiang Yuan one by one.
"Among the singers invited this time, besides you, the only other domestic singer is Shang Yan'er."
“The others are mostly singers from Europe and America, one of whom is Aurora, a top-tier singer from Brazil.” Li Xiaoyue said, showing Jiang Yuan a photo of a sweet-looking female singer.
“Then this time it can be considered Aurora’s home turf,” Jiang Yuan said after thinking for a moment.
“Yes, she just held three concerts in Rio two weeks ago, and all the tickets sold out in a very short time,” Li Xiaoyue said, looking at Aurora’s latest record.
"Then it must have a strong local following. Are the seats we've opened up enough to accommodate so many spectators?" Jiang Yuan suddenly became a little uncertain.
"That's indeed a difficult point to judge," Li Xiaoyue shook her head.
He then gave Jiang Yuan a more detailed explanation of Aurora's information.
“Aurora just turned thirty this year. She is a singer-songwriter who debuted when she was a teenager. Her early singing style was quite sweet.”
"But in recent years, Aurora's creative style has become more avant-garde and bold, a contrast to her early performance career, which has attracted many fans and made her extremely popular."
"At the same time, because she is good-looking, in addition to being a singer, Aurora has also made cameo appearances in many movies."
"I also have my own musical films that have garnered considerable acclaim in the film industry," Li Xiaoyue briefly summarized the information for Jiang Yuan.
In this way, the image of the singer Aurora became more vivid in Jiang Yuan's mind.
Just by adding this one person's name, this lineup already looks very strong.
"The Wild Rush Band will also be participating in our recording this time," Li Xiaoyue then announced another name.
After saying the name of the band Kuangbiao, Li Xiaoyue paused slightly, as if she thought the band's name probably didn't need much introduction.
After hearing the band's name, Jiang Yuan found it very familiar.
He quickly searched his memory and soon found the answer.
"I think I've seen their autobiographical film before." Jiang Yuan finally remembered where her familiarity with the band came from.
The fact that a director was specifically chosen to make an autobiography for the band Kuangbiao also shows that they are indeed a band with a story to tell.
From a certain perspective, calling them a legendary band seems entirely appropriate.
After all, Jiang Yuan first learned about this band from Paul.
According to Paul, the band Crazy Speed was already a very popular band when Blu-ray was formed, with many well-known representative works.
Furthermore, based on the story Jiang Yuan learned from the other party's autobiographical film, even if the film embellished the story to some extent, the status of the Kuangbiao Band is undeniable.
Just like the band's name suggests, the lead singer was originally a race car driver, the kind who actually raced on the track.
However, he flipped his car during an official race. Fortunately, he was unharmed, but it ultimately led to his retirement from the game, after which he went on to pursue music.
They chose this band name as a tribute because they couldn't forget their racing career.
Some of their early representative works are as straightforward as the band's name suggests, and their performance style is like a speeding race car, making the audience very excited.
Even later, some racing games and events specifically purchased songs by the band Crazy Speed as background music.
"Will they come to our music festival later?" Jiang Yuan then asked Li Xiaoyue.
After receiving an affirmative answer from Li Xiaoyue, Jiang Yuan immediately sent a message to Paul.
As expected, Paul was quite excited when he learned of this information, and sent Jiang Yuan several messages in a row.
I was quite surprised that "Live Music" was able to invite the band Crazy Speed to participate in the show.
On the other hand, they are also excited to see the Crazy Band perform together at the music festivals organized by "Sound Source Live".
Mainly, after the Blu-ray Band became a huge success, the Crazy Band's activities gradually decreased.
Now that the band members are mostly elderly, the Blu-ray Band really doesn't have many opportunities to perform on the same stage as this legendary band.
After sharing information about the band Kuangbiao with Paul, Jiang Yuan listened attentively as Li Xiaoyue introduced the next singer.
“There’s another representative of jazz, Lyman,” Li Xiaoyue then told Jiang Yuan another rather important name.
Although it's not mainstream pop music, Jiang Yuan had heard of this singer's name.
There are several very famous songs that Jiang Yuan had seen many singers cover when she watched TV before.
Jiang Yuan was also somewhat surprised that the production team had actually invited people this time.
"If you hadn't told me yourself, I would have thought this might be a fake list." Jiang Yuan couldn't help but shake her head with a smile.
By now, Jiang Yuan had no doubt about the appeal of this beach performance, and even began to wonder if the numerous viewing areas prepared by the production team would be insufficient.
Up to this point, Li Xiaoyue still had two singers' names that she hadn't introduced to Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan guessed that, given the previous lineup of bands like Kuangbiao and singers of Lyman's caliber, the remaining lineup probably wouldn't be too bad either.
"I'm starting to feel a little disoriented, like I'm unpacking some kind of blind box with a theme about legendary singers," Jiang Yuan couldn't help but say.
Li Xiaoyue then quickly introduced the names of the remaining two singers to Jiang Yuan.
As expected, one of them was a singer of similar caliber to Lyman and others, the kind of singer who serves as a judge at award ceremonies.
The remaining one is a pop king-level singer with numerous hit songs.
Jiang Yuan mentally reviewed the names on the list and felt that if the production team officially announced this list, it would generate a huge response.
That evening, Jiang Yuan checked into the seaside villa arranged by the production team, while Shang Yan'er would arrive a day later because she had other commitments to attend to.
However, it was on this very night that the production team used their official account to announce the free beach performance, along with a poster featuring the lineup of singers.
