Chapter 457 "City Of Stars"

In the evening, Jiang Yuan and the program team checked out the confirmed performance venues one after another.

It is the square near the Louvre where people come and go. After walking for a few days, it seems that this place is more suitable.

Right now, it is the penultimate day of this trip to Paris.

According to Jiang Yuan's knowledge, there are already several guests, such as Louis and Takahashi Toru, who have completed the performance at some unknown time.

It is not known how effective the performance will be or what results will be achieved for the time being.

However, this is probably one of the advantages of this show. I can't know myself and my enemy, but at least I won't be affected by other singers' performances.

After arriving at the destination, the program group began to arrange audio and other equipment on the scene.

It was dusk, and many singers had already appeared in the square. Jiang Yuan glanced at some of his colleagues who had already started singing.

There are many pedestrians on the road, and there are not a few who are willing to stop and watch the performance.

This is what Jiang Yuan found out after repeated visits to the site again. The recent market conditions in this area are pretty good.

At the same time, the appearance of the program group and Jiang Yuan also successfully attracted a lot of attention.

After all, judging from the layout of the scene, the expensive speakers and the many staff members present, it is obvious that it is not an ordinary singing.

At the same time, both Jiang Yuan and Shang Yan'er felt a little lucky that during the arrangement process, several passers-by from Huaxia recognized Jiang Yuan and them.

After all, it is the bustling area of ​​Paris, so it is normal for Chinese tourists to appear.

"Are you recording a program?" One of the girls looked at Jiang Yuan and asked excitedly.

"That's right." Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded.

"My mother, it's so beautiful!"

"How can it be so beautiful?"

As soon as Jiang Yuan answered, the girl looked at Jiang Yuan and then at Shang Yan'er, and couldn't help being a little incoherent with excitement.

"So are we going to be on TV? That world-class music show??" The other girl was excited for a while, and finally calmed down. After seeing the camera, she became excited again.

Jiang Yuan and Shang Yan'er nodded with a smile, thinking it was a normal reaction to this situation.

"Can I take a photo with you? I'm your CP fan." After reacting, another one asked cautiously.

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan and the two had strange expressions on their faces.

It's not that you can't take a group photo, the main thing is that it's the first time I saw this kind of CP dance in front of the master.

But fortunately, neither of them can be regarded as the cp that La Lang made hard, and the acceptance of cp fans is not bad.

Shang Yan'er even compared the number of followers of her CP Chaohua with that of several other people in private.

His expression changed a bit, and he agreed to the request for a group photo.

After finishing the group photo and telling the other party not to post it on the Internet before the show was broadcast, Jiang Yuan started preparing for her own performance on the spot.

Today, Jiang Yuan is wearing a light beige linen shirt, paired with carefully tailored brown wide-leg trousers, and a head of blond hair, which is conspicuous in the crowd.

While Jiang Yuan was preparing, the number of people who stopped and watched increased a bit.

The main reason is that the few girls who took a group photo just now acted as if they were "trusting", which indeed attracted the attention of many passers-by.

The equipment for the live performance was completed. Compared with Jiang Yuan's previous performances, they were all rudimentary.

The last time such a simple performance was on the show "City Street Corner".

Now that I'm on another show with the same director, it still feels like a familiar recipe.

The musical instrument in front of Jiang Yuan is an electronic piano, and it is the only musical instrument that will be used in this performance.

Originally, what Jiang Yuan wanted was the piano, but the program team's preparations were obviously limited.

In addition, it was really troublesome to get a piano in this square, so Jiang Yuan chose the electronic piano as the next best thing.

After adjusting the microphone stand, Jiang Yuan opened the computer software on the side.

This time Jiang Yuan is going to make a preliminary attempt to use the loop station for performances.

But it's not used for accompaniment, but to record harmony for myself to increase the level of singing.

After the modulation, Jiang Yuan directly opened his voice and started recording the harmony.

Compared with the normal key of the song, the key of the chord will be more difficult to find.

However, this is obviously not a problem for Jiang Yuan. After all, he has practiced many times, and he has the effect of opening his mouth to the soul, successfully attracting the eyes of many passers-by.

Even without accompaniment, Jiang Yuan performed at a very high level, and at the same time caused a certain degree of dimensionality reduction to the surrounding colleagues.

In the chord recording session, Jiang Yuan has successfully attracted many audiences before the singing has officially started.

In a way, though, the show has already begun.

When the harmony recording was over and Jiang Yuan was operating the software, there was already a round of applause at the scene.

At this time, there was only a ray of light left on the horizon, and the sky was about to completely darken.

The billboards and street lights in the square have also been turned on, and the program crew is not too shabby, so they even gave Jiang Yuan a light.

Under the light, Jiang Yuan put his hands on the keys and began to play the prelude of the song.

The timing is matched with the playing time of the chords very precisely, but any time difference will cause the performance form of loopstation to fail.

This is why few people try this form of performance.

The melodious sound of the piano was played under Jiang Yuan's slender fingers, and it was played on the square through the stereo.

Jiang Yuan's piano buff is still good on the electronic piano.

At this time, the singer who was closest to Jiang Yuan also surrounded him when he heard the movement.

After the singing level was hit by dimensionality reduction, the performance of musical instruments was also hit.

The long-haired singer with a guitar saw more and more people around him, and he was already thinking about going to another place to perform after watching the first song sung by Jiang Yuan.

It is estimated that this part will not be able to get along, and at the same time, he is also curious about who Jiang Yuan is.

Jiang Yuan played intently, feeling the atmosphere of the scene, and was already immersed in the performance state.

The preset scene is almost the same as the current scene, so that Jiang Yuan can better substitute into it.

This time, Jiang Yuan struggled a lot with the song selection, and finally chose "City Of Stars".

Jiang Yuan knew this song because the other party was the theme song of "La La Land".

At the same time, the song is widely sung and pleasant enough, and the emotional melody is also very suitable for this city in Jiang Yuan's opinion.

The quality of the song, as being able to win the Golden Globe Award and the Oscar for two major song awards, is naturally beyond doubt.

In Jiang Yuan's opinion, it is perfect for her debut song in the first episode of the show.

The sky was almost completely dark, but Jiang Yuan's piano sound attracted the audience like dots of stars.

Let the scene feel the charm of the prelude, Jiang Yuan played non-stop, and at the same time approached the microphone, and officially started singing.

"City of stars, Are you shining just for me
(City of Stars, are you only shining for me)"

The moment he opened his mouth to enter the soul, Jiang Yuan showed his timbre that he had seldom tried bass in the past.

The magnetic, mellow and deep tone is full of resonance. The feeling on the spot is far more shocking than that through the screen because of the relationship between the radio.

Almost in an instant, the audience around were hit in the heart by Jiang Yuan's words.

Kneeling in the true sense.

"City of stars, There's so much that I can't see
(The city of stars, the prosperity of the world makes me dizzy)”

Jiang Yuan continued to sing. If the first line was amazing, then the second line was completely addictive to the audience.

Even Shang Yan'er, because she rarely heard Jiang Yuan's voice, looked at Jiang Yuan with surprise and joy mixed with pride.

With Jiang Yuan's singing, Shang Yan'er tilted her head and thought of an adjective, it was indeed a little sexy.

The camera swept around and recorded the reaction of the audience.

"Who knows, I felt it from the first embrace I shared with you
(Who knows, from the moment I embraced you for the first time, I have already felt it)"

Jiang Yuan played and sang, and at the same time raised his eyes to look at the lens, but actually looked at Shang Yaner.

The moment they made eye contact, their heart skipped a beat.

With the music and the unfamiliar scene on the street, Shang Yaner felt as if she had fallen into some musical drama and became the heroine.

As for who the male protagonist is, it is self-evident.

Not to mention, if Jiang Yuan really knew Shang Yaner's thoughts, the system might be able to release "La La Land" later.

"That now our dreams, They've finally come true.
(Our dreamland, they finally all come true.)”

After Jiang Yuan sang a short section, taking advantage of the empty beat, the scene was already silent, and there was spontaneous applause.

"City of stars, Just one thing everybody wants.
(City of Stars, there is a secret that everyone wants to know)"

Feeling the feedback from the scene, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but draw a smile on the corner of his mouth.

The camera scanned the scene again, and more and more audiences were attracted by the singing.

Audiences of different ages and even from different countries were all immersed in Jiang Yuan's singing at this time.

"There in the bars, And through the smokescreen of the crowded restaurant
(found in a bar, through a noisy restaurant with fog.)”

Singing with full of emotion, just like speaking, let the audience feel the changes of singing.

Jiang Yuan glanced at Shang Yan'er again, and then ended the empty beat and continued singing.

"It's love!

(this is Love)"

After connecting this sentence, coupled with Jiang Yuan's eyes, Shang Yan'er felt inexplicably teased.

"Yes all we're looking for is love from someone else.
(Yes, all of us are looking for someone else's love)"

When Shang Yaner followed Jiang Yuan's eyes, Jiang Yuan looked at the other audience and concentrated on singing, which made Shang Yaner a little annoyed.

At this time, Jiang Yuan's playing method changed slightly, and the previously recorded chords finally came in handy, blending well with the current singing.

"A rush
A glance (or a glimpse)
A touch (or a touch)
A dance (or a dance)"

It was originally a duet song between men and women, but Jiang Yuan chose to stack harmony to increase the level.

At the same time, the change in the way of playing also changed the tune and began to change towards the brisk direction of jazz.

"A look in somebody's eyes,

To light up the skies,

To open the world and send it reeling
(Looking into each other's eyes is enough to light up the entire night sky, welcoming this beautiful world and giving them a sincere dream.)”

Jiang Yuan sang, and looked into Shang Yan'er's eyes again, the eyes were full of affection.

It happened that Shang Yan'er was standing next to the camera. It is estimated that when the program is broadcast, the audience will also feel a sense of being teased.

Kill two birds with one stone.

"A voice that say "I'll be here",
And “you’ll be alright“.
(There is a voice in the bottom of my heart saying, I am here, and you will be all right)"

While the rhythm of the music became brisk, it also infected the audience very well.

Some passers-by and spectators either beat the beat, or began to dance with their feet ready to move.

And Jiang Yuan's singing voice perfectly formed a duet with the harmony, which strengthened the level of the song.

Although an English song is sung, not to mention the commonality of music, it is not that no one speaks English in France.

Many listeners still managed to understand the lyrics sung by Jiang Yuan.

As for the little girls who came to play from Huaxia, besides paying attention to Jiang Yuan's singing.

At the same time, it also captured Jiang Yuan and Shang Yan'er's eye contact several times, and they were in the middle of their mouths.

"I don't care if I know, just where I will go,

Cause all that I need is this crazy feeling
(I don't care if I know where I'm going for my dreams, but I need this crazy feeling)"

Jiang Yuan sang intently, and suddenly there was a cry from the crowd.

Street performances are always accompanied by some randomness.

Infected by the sound of music, many audience members couldn't bear the rhythm of their bodies.

At this time, an elderly couple stood out from the crowd and danced to the music.

Jiang Yuan raised his head to look at this scene, with a smile on his lips involuntarily.

"A rat-tat-tat on my heart,

Think I want it to say.
(The sound of "stepping" resounded in my heart, telling me that I wanted to stay.)"

This line was sung with a hint of a smile in the original song.

It's just in the way of chorus, there is a lively feeling between men and women looking at each other and smiling.

This time it was changed to a solo version, and Jiang Yuan wondered whether it would be too contrived to continue singing in this way.

But I didn't expect such a scene to be staged on the scene.

It can be said that everything is so just right.

The song has also sung to the last paragraph at this time, and the lively part is over.

Jiang Yuan returned to the original way of singing.

"City of Stars,

You never shined so brightly.
(City of stars, you never shined so brightly.)”

Accompanied by the sound of the piano, Jiang Yuan affectionately sang the last line of the song.

At the end of the singing, the playing continued.

The audience was also completely immersed in the aftertaste of the song.

Jiang Yuan looked up and glanced around, and there were already a lot more audience than when the performance started.

Jiang Yuan was already very satisfied with the number of onlookers.

What is more satisfying is that this performance has been completed very well.

After playing the last note, the applause from the scene also hit like a tide.
