Chapter 577 Theme Concert

Sakura Capital Airport, just about a month has passed since Jiang Yuan last arrived in this country.

For local Sakura fans, this month has been a happy one because they have always looked forward to the concert.

As soon as Jiang Yuan left the airport, he saw a familiar scene.

Fans held exaggerated banners for the new version of the ship, and the lineup was much stronger than before. On the bright side, it can be regarded as an increase in popularity, but it also became more social.

But there is a saying that goes like this, as long as you don’t feel that society will die, then others will die in society.

With some preset psychological preparation, Jiang Yuan stepped forward with a smile and accepted the fans' exaggerated support.

Under the surprised gazes of some passers-by, I picked out a few of the most exaggerated banners and collected them as I did before.

The fans whose banners were taken away by Jiang Yuan, as always, believed that their support slogans were loved by Jiang Yuan and therefore were chosen, and they also became excited.

Some fans also recorded videos at the scene, recording this beautiful "two-way rush" scene.

After the exaggerated support, Jiang Yuan also chatted with the fans who came to the scene before leaving the airport.

I checked to see if everyone had got the tickets for the concert the next day, and by the way, I mentioned that I would definitely come to Sakura during my tour next year, which was a big deal for the fans who couldn't get the tickets for the concert.

After getting into the vehicle arranged in advance, Jiang Yuan stuffed the banner into the satchel he carried with him.

"The response after the official announcement of the tour has been very good. Fans at home and abroad are looking forward to it." After getting in the car, Zhang Qing checked the feedback on the Internet after the official announcement of the tour.

After hearing Zhang Qing's report, Jiang Yuan had already expected this.

At least it's a lot easier to accept than the special support from Sakura fans that looks like an anime scene.

After a little bit of relief from the shock, Jiang Yuan switched to the local network and learned some relevant information about himself on the Internet.

Although he had not been in Sakura for a month, Jiang Yuan searched and found that there was still quite a lot of news related to him.

Ignoring the newly released photo with fans at the airport that was taken by the media, Jiang Yuan briefly browsed the news from the previous period.

Ten minutes later, Jiang Yuan put away his phone and finally got a rough idea.

Because "Your Name" is currently in theaters, as the film's voice actor and OST singer, Jiang Yuan's name has also been mentioned repeatedly in film-related news.

At the same time, perhaps because of the movie bonus, four of the soundtrack tracks from Jiang Yuan's Japanese album "Log", which he released earlier, are still on the charts.

The rest of the singles are basically in the top 30 of the local real-time charts, and it can be said that they are very ahead of many local singers in terms of music sources.

While the sound source performance has grown steadily, the sales of physical albums have also received a simultaneous increase.

Recently, it has won the weekly top spot on the Sakura Records sales chart for two consecutive weeks.

This may also be related to Jiang Yuan's performance in "World Song". The performance in Times Square, as a performance that has attracted a lot of attention around the world, naturally also attracted attention in Sakura.

Apart from "Your Name", Jiang Yuan's most searched reports were about this show.

"We're almost there." When Jiang Yuan closed his eyes and thought, Zhang Qing reminded him.

Jiang Yuan opened his eyes and saw that the vehicle had arrived near the performance venue.

Perhaps because tomorrow is the official performance time, you can already see promotional posters and road signs related to the theme concert on the way into the venue.

Both sides of the street were lined with support flags from surrounding areas. Looking at such a scene gave Jiang Yuan a lot more real sense of performance.

After leaving the airport, Jiang Yuan drove straight to the performance venue to prepare for the rehearsal.

Although the name is just a theme concert, in fact Jiang Yuan will perform far more than four OSTs. After all, it needs to last the length of a performance.

Even if other aspects of the concert and Haruka Arimura are included, Jiang Yuan still has a lot to rehearse.

I didn't even have time to arrange it in the practice room, so I went directly to the venue to make adjustments. I was really pressed for time.

After the car stopped, Jiang Yuan quickly got out of the car, carried his bag and entered the venue with Zhang Qing.

"Are you in good condition?" Zhang Qing asked and confirmed while handing Jiang Yuan a thermos cup.

After all, after a period of flying and exhaustion, Zhang Qing was still a little worried that if Jiang Yuan was not in good condition and went to the rehearsal, his condition would be even worse the next day.

Jiang Yuan took the thermos cup and moistened his throat, felt it carefully, and replied, "No problem."

It must be partly because he is still young and strong. Jiang Yuan himself rarely appears in poor physical condition during performances.

However, to be on the safe side, Jiang Yuan still planned to rehearse from the performance part.

Arriving at the scene, Haruka Arimura, who had just finished her solo rehearsal, said hello to the staff on site.

Jiang Yuan put on the equipment and went on stage, starting with piano playing and entering rehearsal mode.

Zhang Qing, Arimura Haruka and others were watching Jiang Yuan's rehearsal in the audience, while the assistant was holding a thermos cup and waiting for Jiang Yuan's call.

The whole rehearsal process is quite boring, making final adjustments to the flow of each part of the concert and the performance part.

It takes a lot of time to confirm a performance and a series of adjustments such as on-site stage design and lighting scheduling, and even sound effects equipment.

The sky darkened unconsciously.

Zhang Qing also recorded a short rehearsal clip with her mobile phone in the audience and shared it with fans in Yuan Universe. It was regarded as a live update of Jiang Yuan going abroad.

Fans still like to watch this kind of news.

After seeing that the content he shot received positive feedback from fans, Zhang Qing subsequently posted many fragments, which again received a lot of praise.

The rehearsal ended not too early that day, and Jiang Yuan had almost finished arranging the repertoire for his personal performance.

The next day, I still need to continue to rehearse the chorus with Haruka Arimura.

It has only been a week since the two last said goodbye, but their tacit understanding is still not low, and the rehearsal for the collaborative stage is going smoothly.

It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day, after the rehearsal of the last song, that Jiang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, there was not enough time. Although there was a lot of work scheduled that day, fortunately, Jiang Yuan basically kept singing, which did not have much impact on his physical strength.

After finishing the rehearsal, it was time to go backstage to put on makeup and wait for the concert to start.

This time passes relatively quickly.

While Jiang Yuan and others were doing makeup, the venue was already bustling with activity.

The audience basically came to the venue in advance to prepare for entry, and those present were basically fans of Jiang Yuan and Arimura Haruka.

Although there are fans of anime, they are still a minority after all. Even if there are fans, they are fans of Jiang Yuan and Haruka Arimura who got into the trap because of anime and they grabbed tickets and came to the scene.

The stands in the stadium plus the infield can accommodate nearly 20,000 spectators.

The scale was almost the same as Jiang Yuan's first concert, but it was much bigger than Jiang Yuan had imagined. Half an hour before the concert started, the seats in the venue were almost full.

Fang Yiliang sat at the console and took a circle of photos inside the venue, and excitedly shared them with Jiang Yuan.

After all, it is a concert with an exclusive theme for the movie, and it is only because of the box office agreement set in advance that the concert can be held. There is also a step to arrange for the director to come on stage.

This also made Fang Yiliang a little excited in his seat.

This excitement was also successfully conveyed to Jiang Yuan through the message sent by Fang Yiliang.

The time before the start of the performance passed quickly, and when the performance was approaching, the whole place was almost full.

Jiang Yuan had already changed into his performance clothes backstage, looked at each other with Haruka Arimura, and was ready to go on stage.

When the show time came, the lights dimmed one by one.

The moment the lights dimmed, the audience realized that the performance was about to begin, and subconsciously began to become noisy and cheered.

Jiang Yuan and Arimura Haruka each took their microphones and put on their ears and returned to their respective elevators.

At the reminder of the on-site staff, Jiang Yuan squatted on the lifting platform.

The lifting platform began to rise slowly. Jiang Yuan took a deep breath and got ready to start the performance.

The lights and big screen in the venue came on again, and the prelude of the song also started playing.

The opening of the theme concert is like a movie, starting with the opening song.

The intro composed of strings and the picture of meteors passing by on the big screen made the audience cheer and scream involuntarily.

The song title of "Dream Lantern" was displayed on the big screen. This was the first time Jiang Yuan performed the film's opening song live.

A soothing prelude served as the prelude to the concert. A beam of light shone on the stage. Jiang Yuan had already arrived on the stage through the lifting platform.

Wearing white casual clothes, it looked shining under the lights. Under the enthusiastic cheers of the audience, Jiang Yuan raised the microphone and started singing.

"ああこのままPUたちの声が

, The end of the world is the end of the world...

(I wish our shouts could ring to the end of the world)"

The moment the song started, Jiang Yuan's soft and warm voice made the audience, who were originally excited because of the concert, quiet down and began to enjoy Jiang Yuan's singing attentively.

"It will never disappear. If we could, what should we say?"

Jiang Yuan sang softly, and the choreography in the background directly used clips from the movie for editing.

It also made the audience who came to the scene because they loved this movie feel very immersed.

"Why don't we just shout "one two" together and make a promise that will never disappear"

Jiang Yuan held up the microphone and sang, while looking at the star-studded audience, he couldn't help but smile.

After the singing of this line of lyrics ended, the roar of the electric guitar suddenly sounded in the scene.

The mood of the song suddenly became more intense, and at the same time, the originally calm lights flashed rapidly.

The change in the atmosphere was quickly responded to by the audience.

The concert had just begun, and the audience still had plenty of energy and began to wave the light sticks in their hands vigorously.

Jiang Yuan also changed his singing method from standing still and began to run on the stage, arriving at a more central position on the stage before the next part of the singing began.

"Oh~!! As long as you make a wish, it will definitely come true."

"The basis for this sentence is when did it start and why?"

Drums were added to the accompaniment of the song, and Jiang Yuan sang, making the song more vital.

The audience waved their light sticks to the rhythm and enjoyed the live experience. Many fans who heard Jiang Yuan live for the first time were somewhat unspeakably moved at this moment.

"The rain gradually stopped, at that moment, at the beginning and end of the rainbow"

As Jiang Yuan sang, a rainbow shadow appeared in the background of the stage.

Sky background at dusk, with a rainbow gradually building a bridge across the sky.

While Jiang Yuan was singing, he also began to quicken his pace and move towards the other side of the stage.

"I have always believed that there is something waiting for me at the end of my life."

Jiang Yuan sang and stepped to the rhythm.

There was no need to sing the interlude for a short period of time, and he immediately accelerated his pace and started to trot.

At this time, the audience also noticed Jiang Yuan's movement speed, which gradually began to synchronize with the speed of the rainbow extending to the other end of the stage.

"Let's set off on a different day and celebrate with the emotions that our predecessors have not yet experienced."

"Kiss time, even if it is played by the fifth dimension"

Jiang Yuan sang at a trot, and his singing voice was a little breathy, but it was still stable.

Jiang Yuan didn't stop until the rainbow formed a complete bridge on the stage.

The audience had heard the song many times, and with the blessing of the movie, they had a deeper understanding of the lyrics.

With the stage background, it awakens the memory of the movie, making it even more immersive.

However, at this time, I was still quite curious as to what Jiang Yuan’s purpose was in running all the way to the other end of the stage.

The next moment, Arimura Haruka's appearance successfully aroused cheers from the audience.

"The two of them decide together the code for the next "first meeting""

While Jiang Yuan was still singing, Haruka Arimura also appeared in front of Jiang Yuan through the elevator on the stage.

Then he raised the microphone and sang the last line of the song with Jiang Yuan.

"I will be chasing your name from now on."

The two looked at each other and finished singing the last line together.

The picture was enlarged to the big screen, and the audience suddenly felt a sense of fate.

The two-minute song opened the show and ended quickly, and the audience cheered and applauded.
