Chapter 1073 Night Story
At the Shanghai Airport, Jiang Yuan met Li Xiaoyue and others.
Similar to previous trips, Jiang Yuan and the program crew took the same flight.
Of course, the main team of the program crew will arrive at the recording location some time in advance to make corresponding preparations.
According to Jiang Yuan, many staff members flew to the next recording city immediately after the last recording in Sydney was finished.
"So who's here this time?"
After meeting Li Xiaoyue at the airport, Jiang Yuan began to inquire about her out of curiosity.
The main reason is that the show "Sound Source Live" is not like other music variety shows where you only need to prepare for the performance and you can leave after the performance.
In addition to the performance part, the preparation aspects still require more communication with the singers.
Like the previous recordings, Jiang Yuan basically had people he was familiar with in every show, so on the days when there were no performances, it was like filming a travel variety show and he had a very pleasant time.
Therefore, the lineup of singers participating in the recording of the program is still very important to Jiang Yuan.
"Well, I can only say that there will be people you know in there. The lineup is quite strong." Li Xiaoyue did not give a direct answer, but changed the way she said it.
"Do you know him or he is quite familiar with you?" Jiang Yuan asked further and more clearly.
"I think it should be quite familiar. It shouldn't be very different from the previous recordings." Li Xiaoyue thought for a while and answered.
After getting this answer from Li Xiaoyue, Jiang Yuan felt a lot more relieved.
At the same time, he became a little curious. Since Li Xiaoyue considered him to be relatively familiar with her, Jiang Yuan must have been in touch with her frequently by messaging her.
But Jiang Yuan thought about the recent chat records and couldn't figure out a possibility.
"Do you want me to tell you the complete list now?" Li Xiaoyue asked after seeing Jiang Yuan lost in thought.
“Forget it, let’s talk about it after it lands.” Jiang Yuan shook his head when he heard it and decided to keep the mystery of opening the blind box.
This time, it is not the first time that Jiang Yuan has visited the city where "Sound Source Live" went.
I had been there once before when I was recording "World Songs", and it is also one of Jiang Yuan's favorite cities, Paris.
After confirming the performance city, Jiang Yuan had already roughly thought about the arrangements for the performance repertoire.
The specific distribution will only be known after the show case is finalized.
After boarding the plane, it was another long flight. With no one to accompany him and the TV series script already completed, Jiang Yuan's daily work tasks were temporarily much lighter.
So the entire flight time was spent in a deep sleep.
It was also because of this that Jiang Yuan was still quite energetic after the plane landed.
"Some singers have already arrived at the accommodation we arranged in advance."
After getting on the vehicle arranged in advance by the program crew, Jiang Yuan was informed of the news by Li Xiaoyue.
"I see." Jiang Yuan nodded, and after thinking for a while, he became concerned about the show plan for this performance. "What do you think about this performance?"
The performance mode is also the core content of the recording of "Sound Source Live". When Li Xiaoyue heard Jiang Yuanxiang asked about it, her expression became more serious and she began to answer seriously.
"I am indeed prepared to discuss this with you."
"Our planning team has an idea and has been testing its effects over the past few days." Li Xiaoyue said as she took out her tablet from her backpack.
For show cases that can be brought out for discussion, the program team has generally conducted relevant experiments in a designated venue.
"Dream night."
Looking at the name of the PPT, Jiang Yuan read it out subconsciously.
"Yes, because Paris is synonymous with romance and fantasy in the eyes of many staff members of our production team."
“It was a sudden inspiration that I wanted to try to do a show that was suitable for the night theme, to convey the sensuality and romantic atmosphere of this time period.” Li Xiaoyue explained the starting point for this show.
"With night as the theme, although the performance format is not very novel, it is also a good entry point." Jiang Yuan pondered for a while and nodded subconsciously.
"In fact, the performance mode of the other show will be quite different, but that performance requires more time to prepare, so it was scheduled for the second show of this recording." Li Xiaoyue explained.
"That's great." Jiang Yuan nodded, then lowered his head and carefully read the PPT prepared by the program team.
Li Xiaoyue also explained things to Jiang Yuan during this process.
"We want to express the fantasy of this dreamy night mainly in the form of stage design, and all aspects of lighting are in line with the theme of this time."
“Although it’s not on a particularly grand scale, it’s definitely small and beautiful.” As Li Xiaoyue was speaking, Jiang Yuan happened to see a few photos of the stage design scene.
"Is this the effect that can be achieved now?" Jiang Yuan asked subconsciously.
"Yes, they are all real shots taken on the spot." Li Xiaoyue nodded and replied.
"The degree of completion is still quite high." Jiang Yuan felt that if he could achieve the effect shown in the picture, the show would be almost complete.
“Choreographers are more about the presentation of a show.”
“This time we also plan to dig deeper into the singers’ song selections to see if we can find some more atmospheric and stories behind the song selections,” Li Xiaoyue continued.
Jiang Yuan listened to Li Xiaoyue's explanation and gradually felt that this show case was becoming more complete.
The performance already has a great choreography, and it would be even better if the background stories of each singer's performance could be improved.
"In this way, it will be a complete theme performance." Jiang Yuan commented.
"Yes, we are also going to give the singers three days to prepare their performances."
“Everyone can also discuss and share the stories of their song selections at night, so that when the show is broadcast later, there will be other parts besides the performances.” Li Xiaoyue obviously already has a relatively complete concept for the Dream Night show.
“But in this case, this should be a rare performance that online audiences will find more interesting.” Jiang Yuan said after thinking for a while.
In the past performances of "Sound Source Live", the audience on site must have had a better viewing experience.
After all, professional on-site audio equipment can hear more details that cannot be heard from online audio sources.
"Yes, compared to live audiences, by watching the show we can understand the stories behind the songs in more detail and thus generate more resonance." Li Xiaoyue also nodded.
Then he continued, "In fact, for this performance, we want to focus on online audiences." Hearing Li Xiaoyue admit her intention, Jiang Yuan also understood. After all, "Sound Source Live" is a variety show, and its main audience is actually online audiences.
If the theme performance of this episode of Dream Night can be done well, it may be more popular than the other episodes.
Even though previous performances had complete themes, they were not as closely related to everyone as this night.
"How is it? Did this theme performance disrupt your song selection plan?" Seeing that Jiang Yuan had accepted the show, Li Xiaoyue also asked about Jiang Yuan's preparations.
"There are indeed some. I guess I should change the song." Jiang Yuan thought about it and found that the song he prepared for this performance could barely be connected to the theme.
But no matter how good the song itself is, it is obviously not the perfect option for such a theme.
"Then we should have enough time to prepare, right?" Li Xiaoyue asked with concern.
"Three days, there shouldn't be any problem." Jiang Yuan thought about it and nodded.
For example, when I participated in the show "City Corner" before, I often had this kind of extreme performance preparation time.
What's more, Jiang Yuan's original song selection plan was disrupted, and there are still suitable songs in the music library.
In the next three days, Jiang Yuan only needs to prepare the new song, which is not too difficult.
"That's good." Li Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Jiang Yuan's answer.
On the one hand, Jiang Yuan is indeed the pillar of this program, despite the fact that so many big-name singers have participated in the recording of the program before.
As a result, after each episode was broadcast, Jiang Yuan's performance still received the best response.
On the other hand, Li Xiaoyue also wanted to judge from Jiang Yuan’s answer whether this time was too extreme for other singers.
"If there are no other questions, can the theme of this fantasy night be confirmed?" Li Xiaoyue also asked Jiang Yuan for his opinion at the end.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan nodded without hesitation.
If this show proposal was rejected, Jiang Yuan couldn't think of a better solution for a while, not to mention that this was indeed a good solution.
"Then I'll explain it to everyone tomorrow after all the singers are here." Li Xiaoyue nodded, and seemed happy after her show was approved by Jiang Yuan.
The vehicle continued to move forward. After Jiang Yuan and Li Xiaoyue learned about the arrangements for the first performance, they also began to close their eyes and rest in the car.
I mainly searched within my own music library and thought about which song would be more suitable to choose next.
While thinking about the problem of song selection, the vehicle gradually arrived at the accommodation location.
The program crew was as generous as ever. Although they did not prepare a castle like last time, they did book a local luxury hotel as accommodation for this recording.
As soon as Jiang Yuan got out of the car, the hotel's housekeeper was already in place, helping Jiang Yuan and others pick up their luggage.
After all, this would be the residence for a period of time in the future. After Jiang Yuan followed the staff into the hotel, he began to look around curiously.
Walking past the front desk, there is a huge courtyard with rattan chairs and other items.
Jiang Yuan looked at it and nodded subconsciously, thinking that it would be a good place to have afternoon tea during the day.
At the same time, at night, the lights in the courtyard were turned on, which was also suitable for the night atmosphere that Li Xiaoyue had described earlier in the car and wanted Jiang Yuan and others to discuss together.
After walking around for a while, Jiang Yuan came to his room.
The room is on the second floor of the hotel and is a relatively large suite.
The huge floor-to-ceiling windows afforded a view of the courtyard. Jiang Yuan walked around the room and prepared to start packing his luggage.
At this time, some noises were heard outside the room.
Then when the doorbell rang, Jiang Yuan suddenly remembered that Li Xiaoyue had told him before that a singer had already arrived at the scene.
This also made Jiang Yuan walk to the door with some anticipation, and he opened the door while answering.
Outside the door, for Jiang Yuan, it was indeed an unexpected familiar face.
Wang Hu is a singer who participated in the recording of "Love Song Concert" with Jiang Yuan.
The two were just acquaintances on the show and didn't have much contact in their daily lives. They could only be considered to have participated in the same show.
But they do understand each other quite well.
"Long time no see." Although a little surprised, Jiang Yuan still greeted Wang Hu enthusiastically.
"Long time no see." Indeed, after the "Love Song Concert" ended, Wang Hu had not communicated with Jiang Yuan face to face like this for a long time, except for seeing Jiang Yuan at some award ceremonies.
When he saw Jiang Yuan again, Wang Hu couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.
Although Jiang Yuan was already very popular during the "Love Song Concert" period.
But Wang Hu never expected that one day Jiang Yuan would become so popular that he would have a high reputation all over the world.
At the same time, Wang Hu also felt grateful to Jiang Yuan for being able to participate in a program like "Sound Source Live".
So he dragged Jiang Yuan to reminisce for a while, and recounted the few social interactions he had at the Love Song Concert.
Wang Hu was talking so much that Jiang Yuan began to wonder if there was a camera from the production crew that recorded this scene, which was why Wang Hu was so enthusiastic.
After chatting for a while, Wang Hu realized that Jiang Yuan had just arrived at the hotel and still needed time to pack his luggage, so his behavior immediately became much more normal.
"Please pack your things first. I won't bother you anymore." Wang Hu said and waved to Jiang Yuan.
After watching Wang Hu leave, Jiang Yuan closed the door again and started to clean up.
While cleaning up, I was wondering if other singers would ring my doorbell in the future.
Jiang Yuan vaguely felt that besides Wang Hu, there should be other people present.
As he was thinking about it, after a while, the doorbell of Jiang Yuan's room rang again.
Because the person he saw when he opened the door earlier was Wang Hu, Jiang Yuan was no longer as full of expectations as before.
It was in this situation where there was no expectation that Jiang Yuan was somewhat surprised by the singer outside after he opened the door.
Now I understand who the acquaintance Li Xiaoyue was referring to.
