Chapter 986 Party Performance
Jiang Yuan's appearance as the main guest of today's special event successfully attracted the attention of everyone present.
The audience present as fans also burst into the warmest cheers to welcome Jiang Yuan's appearance.
Wang Xicun and others also stood up from their seats and looked at Jiang Yuan.
Although today is a variety show recording, Jiang Yuan's outfit is relatively casual.
A gray hooded cardigan, paired with carbon black jeans and canvas shoes, the outfit is both casual and full of vitality.
If you appear on a more formal music variety show, this kind of dress will appear less formal.
But in the setting of "Your Voice", there was no sense of incongruity. Instead, the audience felt that the distance was shortened a lot.
After Jiang Yuan came on stage, host Qi Yi temporarily retreated off the stage.
This is mainly because the concept of this special event is designed to be a music party.
Therefore, except for necessary moments, Liu Shenglun also asked Jiang Yuan to control the situation alone.
At first, I was a little hesitant about whether to agree to this request, as it was equivalent to taking on the job of host in disguise.
But I was thinking about treating this recording as my own home court, and interacting with it like my own concert.
After changing his mindset, Jiang Yuan felt that it was nothing.
At this time, he took the microphone and greeted the audience, "Hello everyone, I am Jiang Yuan."
After the greetings, there was another round of warm cheers in response. Such feedback also helped Jiang Yuan calm down and continue to interact with the audience.
"Welcome everyone to my special show 'Your Voice'." Jiang Yuan began the opening according to the previously designed script.
Although I didn't write any lines specifically for the opening of the show, I still sorted out my thoughts roughly.
"When everyone entered the venue just now, I think everyone saw the time corridor created by the program team, right?"
Jiang Yuan confirmed with the audience before continuing the talk, "The production team put a lot of effort into the production. When I first came to the rehearsal, I was also amazed and a little moved."
“Indeed, some photos and songs carry some memories of the past, and from there we can enter the scene and the layout of this stage.”
Jiang Yuan said this and looked around the scene in the studio.
“This has indeed fulfilled my idea of a small stage to a certain extent. It doesn’t have to be treated as a formal performance, it can just be an ordinary music party. I hope everyone can feel this atmosphere today.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole place burst into applause.
Amid the applause from the audience, Jiang Yuan turned around and sat down in his seat.
There are a total of seven sofa chairs, forming a semicircle in the center of the studio. The program team also specially prepared some snacks, most of which come from the program's sponsoring brands.
The same catering configuration was also prepared for the audience on site at Jiang Yuan's request.
After finishing the interaction with the audience, Jiang Yuan sat down in his seat and suddenly felt that it was a bit difficult without a host.
After all, as soon as they sat down, the other six singers also turned their eyes to Jiang Yuan, as if waiting for Jiang Yuan to say something.
Fortunately, Jiang Yuan's right-hand men and left-hand men were deliberately arranged by the program to be guests that Jiang Yuan is relatively familiar with, namely Wang Xicun and Gu Yun.
Holding the microphone, Jiang Yuan roughly formulated his words before starting to interact with a few people.
"Among the singers present today, some are friends I know very well, some have recorded shows with me before, and some are the first time I meet them today."
"But we should have listened to each other's music to some extent. Before we start discussing the performance and songs, I would like to know if you have any new ideas or insights in music recently?"
Jiang Yuan first clarified the closeness of his relationship with the guests, and then threw a bigger topic to them.
This is also the question that Jiang Yuan specifically asked Liu Shenglun before the recording of the program began.
It just so happened that Liu Shenglun was also worried about the interaction between Jiang Yuan and other guests after the recording began, so he specially prepared some questions of this type.
"Recently, I have been trying to produce my own new album, which is also challenging myself to try new themes that I have never tried in all these years since my debut."
Under Jiang Yuan's gaze, Wang Xicun took the lead in sharing.
In fact, this is also a question with a relatively broad range of answers. Through this topic, everyone can share their recent life or musical ideas, as well as promote their own works.
Because Jiang Yuan usually keeps in touch with Wang Xicun, he is more familiar with the topic of Wang Xicun's new album.
The possibility of cooperation was also inadvertently revealed in the conversation.
After this signal was released on the spot, it successfully attracted the attention of the audience.
Fans are still very happy to see Jiang Yuan and Wang Xicun work together. The songs sung by Wang Xicun and Jiang Yuan in the previous LOVE series EPs are still very popular.
"Indeed, based on the concept of the album, we can also try some different collaborations together." Jiang Yuan finally nodded and summarized the topic between the two.
It seemed like everyone had agreed to it and started sharing according to how far their seats were.
"I've noticed that my state of mind when making music has changed a lot since I debuted."
Gu Yun had no album to promote, so he thought about it and shared some of his recent thoughts.
After this concept was put forward, it immediately aroused considerable resonance on the spot.
Since many of the people present were singer-songwriters, everyone began to express their opinions on this topic.
Many singer-songwriters are still very active in their lives when they are not yet famous, and there are still plenty of topics for their creations at this time.
However, as my popularity grew and I had more work to do, the topics I could write about seemed to gradually become fewer and fewer. I was even constrained and dared not write too much about certain topics for fear of causing unnecessary controversy.
Everyone discussed this topic for a while, and Jiang Yuan would occasionally chime in.
At this time, some people tried to ask Jiang Yuan to share more insights in this regard, but looking at Jiang Yuan's original question, no one had answered it yet.
In addition, Chen Zhinan, who answered next, was not exactly a singer-songwriter, and fearing that his cut would be snatched away, he seized the opportunity to pick up the microphone and start a new topic.
Everyone at the scene answered the question that Jiang Yuan first asked, and more or less shared some of their own lives and ideas.
The distance between each other was also shortened a little, and the conversation was no longer as unfamiliar as before.
After finishing a round, Jiang Yuan also remembered the program process that Liu Shenglun had explained to him before the recording began.
"Does everyone who participates in this program choose their own songs?" Jiang Yuan asked Wang Xicun curiously.
Although I have learned a rough list of songs from the program team, I still don't know much about the specific process of song selection. "I guess so." Wang Xicun thought for a moment after hearing this.
Gu Yun added some details, "The program team has prepared a playlist for us to choose songs from."
Jiang Yuan nodded when he heard this. He seemed to have learned something from Zhang Qing about the studio's control over the covers of its own songs. It seemed that some of the cover copyrights were not open.
However, Jiang Yuan still hasn't figured out what criteria are used for the evaluation.
"The audience has been listening to us talking for quite a long time. Does anyone want to start singing first?" Jiang Yuan asked.
Because it is not a competition-type music variety show, the production team is very casual about the arrangement of the order of performances, and basically anyone who wants to go on first can go on stage.
Only because Jiang Yuan was the main guest, his performance time was limited to the last one by the program team.
"I'll go first."
As soon as Jiang Yuan finished speaking, while the other singers were still thinking, Chen Zhinan was the first to raise his watch to express his opinion.
"What song did you choose?" Jiang Yuan was surprised at first, then asked Chen Zhinan.
At this time, Chen Zhinan also stood up from his seat.
In fact, Chen Zhinan’s idea of choosing to be the first to appear was relatively simple.
Considering that the singing level of other singers at the scene was more or less higher than his, Chen Zhinan wanted to be the first to perform, so that the audience would not feel too disappointed when watching his performance.
While waiting for Chen Zhinan's answer, Jiang Yuan still felt a little nervous.
If I hadn't learned from Gu Yun that the program team had limited the range of song selections, and if the studio hadn't also had control over it, his earliest nine singles wouldn't have been covered.
Otherwise, with Chen Zhinan's style, he might have chosen a song from it.
"I chose the song 'The Past Was Slow'. I first heard this song when I was recording the 'Love Song Concert' with Jiang Ge."
Chen Zhinan announced his song selection and also began to share the reasons and behind-the-scenes stories behind his choice of the song.
After confirming the song, Jiang Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief.
I am also worried that Chen Zhinan will choose some rap songs for adaptation and make some random adaptations.
Fortunately, Chen Zhinan seems to be ready to sing well this time.
During the introduction, the screen on site also played some video footage of Jiang Yuan singing this song at the "Love Song Concert".
It was mainly played for the fans at the scene, and it also evoked everyone's memories of this song.
After Chen Zhinan finished sharing, he also walked to the performance area.
The stage or performance area is actually a record wall in a coffee shop scene, which is covered with vinyl versions of Jiang Yuan's albums.
Or some single posters of the same size as the LP cover.
Before Jiang Yuan appeared on the stage, many fans were studying this background carefully.
After Chen Zhinan was ready, he began to sing "Life Was Slow In The Past".
Chen Zhinan had some intention in choosing this song.
When selecting the songs at the beginning, Chen Zhinan limited the selection to some songs that Jiang Yuan had performed in the "Love Song Concert" in the early days.
Doing so, on the one hand, can trigger some memories and make the story of the song selection more complete; on the other hand, it is because Jiang Yuan's singing skills were relatively poor during this period.
With a little practice, you can be pretty close in singing level.
The combination of these two reasons led to Chen Zhinan's choice of song.
After Chen Zhinan started singing, Jiang Yuan probably noticed this.
This time, Chen Zhinan not only did not make any random changes to the song, but instead stuck very close to the version he first performed in the "Love Song Concert".
Even the flaws in the singing were imitated.
The only difference is the timbre and the emotion in the singing.
After listening to Chen Zhinan's singing, Jiang Yuan understood why Liu Shenglun had previously communicated with other singers about whether to perform audio editing in post-production.
Chen Zhinan's singing level actually sounds okay because of the live sound effects.
However, if it is made into a broadcast program, any slight deviation in the sound reception will easily produce a bad listening experience.
Even Jiang Yuan's singing at that time was basically made up mostly by emotions and timbre.
"It really reminded me of the first time I performed this song."
After Chen Zhinan finished his performance, Jiang Yuan also picked up his microphone and began to express his feelings.
Speaking at this time also requires more emotional intelligence.
As Chen Zhinan sang at such a level, it was difficult for Jiang Yuan to praise his performance, but he couldn't be too honest, so he expressed it in a roundabout way.
Including people like Xiao Ming, they were relatively more professional, and when sharing their feelings, they directed their praise to the lyrics and the song.
Chen Zhinan also had a general understanding of his own level, and he even acknowledged the fact that his singing was not that good, showing a relatively humble attitude.
"Let me sing a song too." After Chen Zhinan took his seat, Gu Yun also raised his hand.
In the first part of the program, there were two singers who needed to perform. Jiang Yuan was still thinking about who to cue the one with better singing skills next, but Gu Yun volunteered.
Among the singers Jiang Yuan knows, although Gu Yun’s singing skills are not the best, he has his own style when singing.
Generally, even if it is a cover, the song will be adapted to a certain extent.
Without standing up, Gu Yun just sat down and shared his song selection with the audience.
Similar to Chen Zhinan, he also chose a song that he had seen performed live during the recording of "City Corner".
After sharing his song selections, Gu Yun stood up and walked towards the performance area. He also picked up a guitar and prepared to sing and play by himself.
After Chen Zhinan, the audience finally got to enjoy some music during the second song.
While listening to Gu Yun's performance, both the guests and the audience showed expressions of enjoyment and appreciation on their faces.
