Along with the album's track list, there is also the title of this album.
Jiang Yuan's first Japanese album is named "Log", which means log.
The overall concept is designed as an album that records the past year.
In addition to the songs that have been shown on the stage, the included tracks include the four OSTs of "Your Name".
There is also a rock song "LOSER", which, like "Fire with Fireworks", is one of the masterpieces by Kenshi Yonezu, known as Yaye.
Jiang Yuan has been getting this song through the system for a long time, but there has never been a suitable time to perform it.
Now it has been released for the first time and is included in the album. To a certain extent, it can be regarded as one of the main songs of this album.
When the album was released, fans could hear four new songs at once, which also filled fans with a fresh sense of expectation.
[There are more songs than expected! With eight songs, some singers can release it directly as a regular album!]
【Four new songs!! Big things are great!】
[Based on the tracks that have been released, it can be called a famous album! 】
[The little Sakuras eat so well, their first album this year! 】
[I can’t wait to go directly to the pre-order day and already want to place an order!]
[After "Log" is released, the new movie will be released soon, right? 】
【The poster is so cool!!】
…
Once the song list was released, the response at home and abroad was very enthusiastic.
Especially in Sakura, although there are no regular activities, once the album is about to be released, fans immediately come out to express their love for Jiang Yuan's songs.
Some bookstores and influence stores that sell albums have also hung up Jiang Yuan's latest posters to warm up.
The physical album of "Log" is already being printed like crazy.
While the pre-promotion of the Japanese album was in full swing, Jiang Yuan stayed in his room, thinking about the arrangement of the tracks for the next day's road show.
After returning to the mode of performing in person, Jiang Yuan also decided to go into battle again and use Loopstation's killer skill.
I thought that the technique of "one person is a band" would be widely used in the recording of "World Songs", but in fact it was not, so this form is still relatively fresh.
It can also be used as a means to attract passers-by during road shows.
After staying up late for a while, Jiang Yuan finally finalized the flow of the performance.
He fell into a deep sleep, a dreamless night.
Early the next morning, due to the time difference, there were no updates to the promotional schedule for "Log" yet. A track list was enough for fans to look forward to for a while.
Jiang Yuan was having breakfast in the restaurant while sending messages to Zhang Qing.
The topic of discussion focused on another major event in the recent itinerary.
How to sell tickets for the final birthday party.
There is about half a month left before the birthday party is held, and it is almost time to start pre-sale of tickets.
The studio worked hard for a while before finally sorting out the issue of ticket sales.
The first is the issue of ticket pricing. Unlike the last concert where the program team paid for it, this time both the venue and the stage team are funded by the studio itself.
Considering the cost issue, the pricing of tickets cannot be as fantastic as last time.
In order to save costs as much as possible, we set prices according to different ticket areas.
The most expensive front-row ticket is priced at 1008, and the second-tier infield ticket is priced at 725 based on Jiang Yuan's birthday.
Grandstand tickets are divided into two categories: 520 and 320, with a total of four price ranges.
Considering Jiang Yuan's popularity, this price is definitely cheap.
This is also the extreme price given by Jiang Yuan's team when they almost lost money, and it can be regarded as a sincere invitation to fans to attend the birthday party.
In addition to pricing, in terms of ticket sales, in order to resist scalpers, fans can buy tickets.
The studio also tried to implement the ticket sales method that had been planned for more than half a year.
Generally, the sale of performance tickets is subcontracted by the organizer. Many times, some prime location scalper tickets have been generated during this process.
Then it is distributed to various ticket sales platforms, and similar scalper tickets are born in the process.
In the end, when fans were grabbing tickets, they encountered a group of passers-by who were trying to grab tickets manually.
As for this birthday party, Jiang Yuan Studio also hosted it itself and put an end to this behavior.
In addition to adopting strong real-name ticket sales, some tickets are also sold on the Yuan Universe app.
And it requires that the ticket sales platform that has allocated a part of the tickets also needs to answer questions when purchasing tickets.
This is a plan that the studio is planning to try out for birthday party ticket sales. At the same time, it also wants to use this process to see if there are any deficiencies in order to adapt to subsequent tours.
After Jiang Yuan sent the message to Zhang Qing and had a general understanding, he nodded with satisfaction and approved the plan.
At present, it is basically determined to continue to implement this plan. We will see how effective the pre-sale and invoicing is in a few days.
After breakfast, Jiang Yuan returned to his room again and sorted out the equipment needed for the performance.
On the official day of the performance, everyone was basically ready to go out and decided on the performance location and time.
Even Shang Yan'er and others, who often stayed together, acted separately today.
After packing up the equipment used for the performance, Jiang Yuan changed his clothes and got into the show crew's car to go to the performance venue.
I was riding alone in the car, the sun was shining brightly outside the car window and the weather was fine.
It's a coincidence that when it comes to choosing the performance location this time, none of the seven people chose the same location.
In other words, within one day, seven roadshows will be held at different times, and the number of on-site spectators has once again become an important criterion for final performance evaluation.
Jiang Yuan looked away from the car window, and then saw Liu Fang standing aside holding a camera and looking at him eagerly.
Liu Fang took a half-shot of Jiang Yuan's side face. Although it was very pleasing to the eye, it never made much difference.
After noticing Liu Fang's eyes, Jiang Yuan also realized that he was recording a variety show.
Although I haven’t recorded many variety shows, I have developed some sense of variety shows and understand what I need to say to perform at this time.
"We are heading now..." Jiang Yuan began to introduce himself to the camera.
After introducing for a while, he started talking to himself again, talking about today's weather and his expectations for the performance, etc.
After roughly collecting some portions, the vehicle we took slowly got closer to the performance venue.
The vehicle stopped on the road near the beach. Not far away, a seaside path that could only be walked was where Jiang Yuan's performance was today.
After Jiang Yuan's introduction, Liu Fang held up the camera and took a rough panoramic view of the distance.
The seasons in Brazil are exactly opposite to those in China. July is supposed to be summer but it is the end of winter.
Jiang Yuan wore a denim jacket and an orange sweatshirt, looking full of energy.
It looks very suitable with the coastal beaches where many tourists gather because of the good weather.
After getting off the car, Jiang Yuan raised his wrist and looked at the time. It happened to be noon, and there was a large flow of people around him.
This is also the performance time that Jiang Yuan confirmed after observing the locations.
So after confirming with the on-site staff, I started walking around the beach and started looking for a more suitable performance location to install the equipment.
There are many street performers on a trail.
At noon, Jiang Yuan saw people dancing and playing musical instruments, as well as fellow singers.
Although the stalls have not yet started, the formation led by Jiang Yuan and the program team seems a bit huge.
As soon as he entered the venue, he successfully attracted a lot of attention.
Speaking of which, Jiang Yuan's popularity in Brazil is not low. Judging from the sound source data and the number of followers, Jiang Yuan has a certain number of fans there.
But it's obviously not yet to the point where you can be recognized directly when walking on the street.
So before the performance started, it just attracted some attention.
After walking for a while, Jiang Yuan finally found a previously confirmed performance location.
At a fork in the road, it is also a place with a relatively dense flow of people. Before Jiang Yuan stopped, a lot of people passed by.
After Jiang Yuan stopped, the staff immediately started working at the scene, helping Jiang Yuan arrange the equipment, and their actions seemed very fast.
During the preparation process, Jiang Yuan could not help but let go of his thoughts while paying attention to the people coming and going.
The song to be sung this time was also a piece that Jiang Yuan only played from the system after arriving at the local area.
I smoked it several times in a row, and it was a miracle that I pulled out a single. I felt like I had stabbed a popular single in the nest.
Among all the songs, there was another one that was extremely suitable and was chosen by Jiang Yuan.
For this song, Jiang Yuan is relatively confident that he can get a better result, whether it is the live score or the subsequent sound source score.
"Ready." After confirming that there was no problem with the equipment, the staff reminded Jiang Yuan.
Such a large-scale battle between the program team is a move to attract traffic.
Before Jiang Yuan was in position, passers-by in twos and threes had already stopped curiously.
Jiang Yuan walked to the position opposite the main unit and made final adjustments to the equipment.
According to the rules of solo performance, Jiang Yuan cannot perform other songs to warm up, and can only attract the audience with songs for formal performances.
However, fortunately, there is a loopstation performance method.
Under the gaze of cameras and curious eyes, Jiang Yuan recorded the harmony, drum beats, guitar and synthesizer sounds in order.
This kind of operation did indeed attract a lot of traffic to Jiang Yuan again.
At the same time, passers-by began to take out their mobile phones to take pictures of Jiang Yuan, and even identified Jiang Yuan by searching Xinpingjitu.
So much so that before the official start of singing, the place was already a little lively.
After finishing the preliminary recording of the accompaniment, Jiang Yuan did not start singing immediately, but chose to set up a violin.
With the talent bonus of "one person is a band" and combined with the memory of playing, Jiang Yuan quickly mastered the violin skills in a few days.
It can be used during formal performances, and this short section can be used as a prelude to a song.
Compared with the previous slightly messy accompaniment recording, the melodious sound of the violin symbolizes the official start of the performance.
More passers-by stopped when they heard the sound.
He only needed to learn a short section and practice it over and over again for several days. The people watching at the scene never expected that Jiang Yuan only knew this short section.
It's like learning a guitar song and only learning one piece, but you'll be able to master it enough to use it. It's the same principle.
Jiang Yuan played the violin and played the melody in his memory with great skill.
This time, Jiang Yuan once again ignored martial ethics in the selection of the repertoire for the performance.
"Despacito", this Spanish song was once a hit.
In Latin American countries like Brazil, there are obviously some natural language advantages.
The melody of the chorus, played by a violin, caught the audience's ears in a second, and the audience couldn't help but start to look forward to it.
The melody goes well with the sea breeze at noon.
Jiang Yuan played the score arranged by Liu Xianhua.
It lasts just over a minute in total, and the arrangement is very layered, from the catchy and melodious melody to even a forced performance of a war song.
Before the song even started, the violinist had already made the audience clap their hands and scream in admiration.
After playing the last note, Jiang Yuan glanced at the scene.
The audience had already formed a vague circle or two, and there were already a large number of people. When Jiang Yuan saw this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
A set of loop recordings and a combination of violin intros successfully achieved the effect of attracting traffic, and several days of practice were not wasted.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! While finishing the violin performance, Jiang Yuan tapped the computer keys, and the pre-recorded accompaniment began to play seamlessly.
As soon as the obvious Latin-style accompaniment started, a wave of applause just ended, and soon it was driven by the rhythm of the music, and it began to sway faintly.
Although the violin part was added, Jiang Yuan still followed the original version more in the interpretation of the song and tried to restore it as much as possible.
"Oh~oh~"
"oh no~oh no~"
Jiang Yuan held the microphone stand and began to sing.
After the passionate violin performance, the soul-stirring and moving singing voice instantly made the audience stunned and mesmerized.
"go!"
With the sound effects recorded in advance and accompanied by the accompaniment, Jiang Yuan officially started singing the first line of lyrics.
“Si sabes que ya llevo ratomirandote
Tengo que bailar contigo hoy…
(Yes, you already know that I have been watching you for a while, and I must dance with you today...)"
Standard Spanish was sung from Jiang Yuan's mouth.
As soon as they heard Jiang Yuan's singing and vocals, the reaction at the scene was obviously stunned for a moment, and then bursts of exclamations suddenly broke out.
Obviously, I didn't expect that Jiang Yuan would be singing in Spanish, and his pronunciation was so standard.
After another exclamation and applause from the crowd, the audience quickly accepted Jiang Yuan's singing, and began to pay attention to the content of Jiang Yuan's lyrics, enjoy the music, and follow the rhythm.
The atmosphere at the scene changed for the better, and I began to enjoy Jiang Yuan's performance more immersively.
