At this moment, it was Ye Hua's turn to speak at the press conference.
His tone was relaxed and he smiled naturally and joked: "Actually, I am a true 2D fan. Believe it or not, I have brought Tianyi and Hatsune home, so you can be jealous."
These words also attracted a burst of good-natured laughter and livened up the atmosphere. Ye Hua officially said: "Shoreline Company has joined forces with Cripton, He Nian and other industry elites. We have powerfully integrated resources and are full of confidence.
Coastline Company will provide strong technical support from holographic technology. We will all work together to continue to vigorously promote virtual idol culture domestically and even globally, further diversify development, and enhance offline interactions with fans and fans...
…”
"We will announce the details of the global virtual tour below, the Tianyin twins national tour and Hatsune Miku's global tour. We will reveal the exclusive news in advance. Miku Miku has specially released an album for this national tour. It is very exciting.
It has a Chinese style..."
Suddenly, the fans in the banquet hall burst into high-fives.
Next, at the press conference, the five specific host cities for the Tianyin Twins' national tour were announced, as well as the specific concert dates, concert time, and exhibition time and other details.
Fans were also surprised to learn that the national tour actually included five cities. Sure enough, it is different to be backed by a large company. Although Cripton has held virtual concerts in the past, they were all held one by one and the scale was large.
Not big either.
The first stop was, not surprisingly, the most modern urban commercial capital in China.
The tour schedule was also announced accordingly.
Shangdu Station: October 3 and 4, 2020 (Saturday and Sunday), held at Shangdu Stadium (Shangdu Grand Stage);
Chengdu Station: October 17th and 18th, 2020 (Saturday and Sunday), held at Huaxi Live`528;
Kyoto Station: October 31, 2018, November 1 (Saturday, Sunday), held at Wukesong Gymnasium;
Handu Station: November 14th and 15th, 2020 (Saturday and Sunday), held at Hanxiu Theater, Building 2, No. 138, Donghu Road, Guoguohu Street;
Huadu Station: It will be held on November 28th and 29th, 2020 (Saturday and Sunday) in Hall 2 of Huadu Gymnasium.
During each concert, the exhibition time is open from 09:00 to 19:00 on the same day. The concert is divided into day and night performances, with matinee performances from 13:00~15:00 and night performances from 18:30~20:30.
.
Fans at the scene were all pleasantly surprised when they heard the announcement of this data. They originally thought it would be held at the 1862 Fashion Art Center. This venue can only accommodate about a thousand people, but it is different at the Shangdu Gymnasium. This venue specializes in providing cultural and artistic performances.
The performance venue can accommodate 8,000-10,000 people, a proper venue for 10,000 people, and the other four stops are also large venues.
It seems that it is not a bad thing for Hatsune Miku to join Coastline. Cripton is really different now that he has such a wealthy new owner, and he has become richer.
It is also extremely happy for the fans. The last concert held at the 1862 Fashion Art Center, the tickets were sold out within 2 minutes, which is enough to show the enthusiasm of the fans. In fact, it is precisely because of the virtual concerts held in the past few years.
Every concert is packed with seats, and fans are willing to pay for virtual tickets to watch the live broadcast, which gives the organizers the confidence to spend a lot of money to hold big concerts.
The first country of this global tour is China, and it is a unique Tianyin Twins-themed tour. Luo Tianyi will join as a guest star. After the national tour, Hatsune Miku will begin her overseas solo career.
The second stop was Japan. The first stop was of course Akihabara in Tokyo, followed by five stops in Osaka, Nagoya, Sapporo in Hokkaido, and Saitama;
The third stop is the Southeast Asia tour, including Singapore and Bangkok. I have been to these two cities before, so I know the basics. I don’t dare to go to other places. After all, the economic strength and foundation are there, and the scale of the venues cannot be the same as the previous ones.
Compare Huaxia and Benzi.
The third stop is Europe. In comparison, Europe has a developed economy but the development of animation industry is relatively behind the United States and Japan, and even not as good as China. This virtual idol global tour did not invest too much in the European stop. The first stop was Scotland.
Next is Norway, and finally Cologne Station in Germany.
It is worth mentioning that although Coastline Company has launched the European market, this will not hinder Cripton.
The fourth and final stop is to go to the home of the United States. When talking about a country with a large animation industry, most people will definitely think of Little Book, but in this field, the United States is actually on par with Little Book. Let’s not say anything else.
Yes, Walt Disney is enough to take a peek. With a series of classic cartoon characters, there are not just one or two animated movies that have achieved a super high box office of 10+ US dollars.
This is not the first time that Hatsune Miku’s tour has come to the United States. The first stop in the United States is the Hammerstein Ballroom in Manhattan Center, New York, followed by four cities: Los Angeles, Chicago and Seattle.
After the arrangements were announced at the press conference, the next step was the question and answer session.
"Thank you for the spokesperson. I am Liu Huaihun, a reporter from the Shangdu Morning News. I would like to ask Mr. Ye his response to the statement that your company's large investment is promoting the invasion of Japanese comic culture into the mainland?"
A young reporter said this. No one expected that the first reporter would ask such a question at the beginning of the question-and-answer session. The fans in the audience were angry, but they all watched silently, with a wry smile in their hearts.
Two-dimensional culture is obviously still not popular in the eyes of the mainstream media, and even this issue has become a bit of an issue.
Hiroyuki Ito and others felt a little embarrassed after listening to the translation. After a while, Ye Hua smiled calmly and said:
"Journalist friend, I think your question is a bit exaggerated. We cannot underestimate the cultural and historical heritage of our country. The cultural characteristics of our nation are inclusive. Throughout history, we can trace back to the Warring States Period of more than 2,000 years ago. King Wuling of Zhao and Hu Fu
Since the reform of cavalry and archery, and up to now, the history of our nation’s cultural development has been a history of integration that removes the bad and extracts the best.”
After a pause, Ye Hua added: "Our country now advocates cultural confidence, and an open and inclusive mentality is the embodiment of confidence. In fact, the birth of Luo Tianyi is a domestic representative in the field of virtual idols, a new popular element.
We will soon be able to derive a new popular culture and develop new things with local cultural characteristics."
"I don't know if you have noticed a detail. Our view on new things is generally: we must have our own if others have it. Let's talk about the two-dimensional circle. You see, Hatsune Miku has defined virtual idols, this new thing
As soon as it was born and quickly became a trend, some people soon said, this is not good, we also need to have our own virtual idol, so Luo Tianyi was born."
"In short, it's good that others don't have what we don't have. But if we don't have what others have, we can't bear it. We must have it. This is true in any field. If you don't believe me, go check it out."
These words also attracted good-natured laughter from many people at the scene. Ye Hua smiled and said after a while: "What is this psychological plot based on? It is based on our 5,000 years of cultural accumulation and the embodiment of cultural heritage, because we
We have stood on top of the world before, and the subconscious mind of our national genes believes that only by leading the world in all aspects can we have the capital to be proud of. If there is one thing that fails to meet the standards, we cannot be proud. In fact, the achievements our country has made today are unrepeatable in the eyes of the world.
It’s a miracle, but we don’t feel proud of it. Why? Because we don’t lead in all aspects.”
Another burst of laughter came, and Ye Hua finally said: "Luo Tianyi has developed so fast. Being able to quickly become the most popular virtual idol in China second only to Hatsune Miku is the best response. We are very confident. I didn't know that this would happen
Can the answer satisfy you?"
Immediately, the reporter nodded, followed by a burst of warm applause. As the applause ended, questions from reporters soon followed, some of which were answered by Ye Hua, and some of which were answered by others.
