training base.
The gray building is inconspicuous and blends quietly into the night. The strong sound insulation material absorbs all the turbulent sound waves without leaking any flaws.
The sound of music is repeated, the rhythm is strong, the hollowed-out interior is filled with colorful laser lamp posts, and figures are moving up and down. The scene is psychedelic and shocking, giving people the illusion of entering an interstellar nightclub.
After a few more minutes, two low shouts came from mid-air, the singing stopped suddenly, and two figures, one high and one low, entangled and fell downwards.
"Stop the accompaniment, stop the lights."
Xia Song immediately held up his earphones and issued the order.
Before he finished speaking, others were already rushing towards the direction of the fall.
"How about it?"
"what's the situation?"
The voices of Shi Yan and Qi Shuang sounded one after another.
"I'm fine! I was hit!" Yang Jihan, surrounded by concerned eyes, helped Jiang Qing'e stand up again on the soft cushion.
Several people nodded, Liang Yixuan raised his face and said to Xia Song: "Fourth, review."
Xia Song responded with action. He went to the nearest console and operated it a few times. The colored lights disappeared immediately, and a projection lit up in the darkness, showing the rehearsal scene just now.
"Ninth song, second chorus." Lou Lan said.
"I know." Xia Song dragged the progress bar.
The video recording fast forwards, freezes at a certain frame, and then resumes playback.
This song does not require dancing in the stage design. Everyone spreads out and waves to the imaginary audience while singing. The same is true for Yang Jihan and Jiang Qing'e, but at a certain moment, Yang Jihan goes to the left and Jiang Qing'e goes to the right. Because of this impromptu movement, people bumped into each other, causing a "man-made disaster".
"Okay, another bug has been found." Xing Yufei opened the small notebook she carried with her and wrote a few words.
Xia Song turned off the projection, and the warm white light turned on softly. He was slightly startled, and quickly left the console to join everyone.
Yu Lan reacted immediately, controlled the equipment under his feet to turn and stop in the direction of the door, and stood at attention to salute.
The other eight people raised their hands and watched Cheng Zheng steadily advance.
Since the review revealed a minor problem, Xia Song usually restarts the lighting and sound equipment and continues rehearsing with everyone. Therefore, when the lighting is the original warm white instead of the stage color, it must be because of the real nature of the building. The master is here.
"Hello, Professor Cheng!" Shi Yan took the lead in greeting.
Cheng Zheng nodded briefly and raised his hand in return.
He looked a little dusty, wondering if he had just rushed back to the capital from Qinyi University of Science and Technology, but despite this, he was still as tall as a javelin, and his awe-inspiring temperament made the children admire and awe him.
Since arriving at the training base, "Not Gray" and "QianSe" have spent a lot of time with Cheng Zheng. However, given that they were trained to death by this iron-blooded instructor every time, this group of little carrot heads are still... He didn't dare to make a mistake in front of Cheng Zheng.
They are still close, but no one will have the idea of "Okay! Stick with the instructor!"
"Continue training." Cheng Zheng said.
The articulation is cold and hard, and the words are concise and concise.
"yes!"
The nine people were very energetic and responded loudly.
The music plays again, and the dazzling lights continue to change colors and shapes, illuminating the hollow space inside the building. There was no appreciation in Cheng Zheng's eyes, he just calmly observed their compatibility with the equipment in a strong light environment, and found problems that needed to be solved at any time.
Not long after, the elevator door opened again, and the inaudible steady sound of footsteps was like an electric current that rippled through my spine, leaving behind a nervous and unbearable tingling. He lowered his eyes.
"cool."
Qin Jue whistled, walked to Cheng Zheng and stood next to him, looking at the two idol groups flying high in the sky.
Cheng Zheng didn't say anything, didn't turn his head, and still looked at Qi Shuang and the others. He just said:
"Sir, there is a closed training ground here."
"I just jumped down from a height of 58 meters with Tutu two hours ago. My body is so excited. You don't want to be unable to go out tomorrow, right?" Qin Jue said calmly.
When the invitation was rejected, Cheng Zheng's expression did not change, but he turned around.
"58 meters?" His tone was soft, with a slight smile in his voice.
"Are you laughing at me?" Qin Jue looked at him sideways.
Okay, okay, she admitted that this distance would be like drizzle at the end of the world, and it would not make her excited. It was really comfortable for a long time, and it was refreshing to be less than 60 meters high.
"No." Cheng Zheng said in a leisurely tone.
Qin Jue finally turned around to face him this time.
"Are you sure..." She spoke slowly, looking at Cheng Zheng from top to bottom, then raised her eyes again, grinned a little, and raised her eyebrows, "Are you provoking me here?"
Two pairs of eyes met.
One second, two seconds later, Cheng Zheng turned sideways and pulled down the fabric of his shirt.
"Good food, I won't tell who it is."
Qin Jue crossed his arms leisurely and looked at Shi Yan and others again, watching them prepare meticulously for their debut concert.
The sound of hurried footsteps came from beside me, from near to far, and gradually disappeared behind the door.
Qin Jue coughed to hold back his laughter.
It's so shameless to talk to her without teasing.
No longer letting go of the adult thoughts in his heart, Qin Jue looked seriously, staring at the group of children nearby who were performing hard, checking and filling in the gaps in his mind while watching.
She stood for a long time, until the end of the performances of "Not Gray" and "Thousand Colors", and delivered a summary talk to the non-existent audience.
During this period, everyone noticed Qin Jue's figure. However, what is gratifying is that no one lost control of their expressions, and no one stopped dancing suddenly. They were still eager, cute, full of energy, and tried their best to show off their skills. The dazzling light that an idol should have.
Only the surprise or surprise that occasionally flashed in his eyes revealed his inner emotions, making Qin Jue smile.
"...Then, I look forward to our next encounter from now on! Thank you all again!"
Shi Yan smiled brightly.
The clear young voice floated in the air, and the nine people stood in a row holding hands, bowing deeply to the direction directly in front of where Qin Jue was.
Bang bang bang——
Qin Jue applauded.
"teacher!"
"Teacher~"
As if a switch was pressed, the little carrots rushed towards her.
Qin Jue took a few steps back to make room for them, and raised his hand to give Lou Lan a shock.
"Uh!" Lou Lan covered her forehead.
"Don't be too confident in your physical ability." Qin Jue said, "It would be very dangerous if this foot misses the mark."
Everyone stepped on their equipment and moved to the ground before jumping off one by one. Only Lou Lan relied on his agility and half-crouched to gather strength and jumped from high altitude to Qin Jue from a distance of twenty or thirty centimeters.
Very handsome, but not safe.
"Yes! I will never do this again!" Lou Lan stood up and admitted her mistake.
"Hey, where is instructor Cheng?" Xing Yufei was confused.
"He's in a hurry." Qin Kuangtian said, "Come and show me around. I haven't been to this place yet."
"Okay!"
The children walked around the building surrounded by Qin Jue, introducing each other while revealing each other's secrets, and the chat was mixed with a review of the rehearsal just now.
"The tracks for the first half and the solo song have been decided, the new version 3.0!"
"We have encountered some difficulties in the stage design. As for the positioning, we have not yet determined how big the venue will be. We are still thinking about the plan for the interaction with the audience..."
After the review, the topic of "Not Gray" and "Thousand Colors" naturally turned to the debut concert, with everyone reporting on the progress.
Qin Jue nodded slightly: "What are the results of the questionnaire you sent to fans?"
"Currently, more than half of the fans accept the lottery system, but there are still many people who are concerned about the inability to select seats and the huge difference in treatment at the same price. They hope that the company will provide a relatively fair way to purchase tickets."
Xing Yufei spoke eloquently, "As for the location of the concert venue, Guangdong Province, Shanghai and Beijing all have strong voices. We have held a continuous vote on this, and as of the day before yesterday, Shanghai was leading."
"The questionnaire asking fans if they would like to come to the concert and if it was convenient for them was sent out earlier. Well... the situation at that time was that many fans were students, and not many could come to the venue. Passers-by who liked the band's music Audiences are more concerned about the proportion of band performances in the performance. If there are too many singing and dancing performances, they will be less willing to watch offline."
Shi Yan continued, "However, after this period of exposure on the above ground stage, there are also a large number of new fans who regret not filling out the questionnaire before. We are currently considering a second survey."
Qin Jue nodded and said nothing.
She had an argument with Liu Huajun before. After the originally planned 6,000-person stadium was tricked by a competitor, they launched an alternative plan, but the three venues in the alternative plan were mostly deliberately fishing. Among the candidates, there are two other unexpected locations, which the two idol groups did not know about.
After thinking for a moment, Qin Jue still didn't tell Shi Yan and others about her and Liu Huajun's cunning rabbit five caves.
This group of children already have enough to think about. Accepting additional information will only cause interference. Besides, as long as the performance is based on performance, it doesn’t matter where the venue is. Things like choreography, movement, and interaction are all fine until the last minute. Adjustment, the most urgent situation is just concentrated work for a while. With the strong hearts of Qin Yi Technology and the children, Qin Jue believes that they can withstand it.
"Then there are peripherals, well... we have prepared pendants, key chains, standing signs, badges, bracelets, photo cards, postcards, note pads, notepads, desk calendars, support sticks and support T-shirts based on fans' suggestions. In addition, we also There are some signed posters and dolls..."
"stop."
Qin Jue said, "Have you left the factory?"
"Not yet." Yu Lan shook his head.
"Okay, cut these ideas by 80%." Qin Jue said.
Everyone said "uh" in unison.
It had been a long time since I heard such a decisive voice, and the image of the Great Demon King of Qin that had gradually faded in everyone's mind suddenly returned, making everyone both fearful and kind.
"Teacher, what's the problem?" Qi Shuang asked.
"It's too vulgar." Qin Jue's answer left people speechless.
"Anything that fans can self-print should not be made into peripherals." She said, "I can just go to a store and place an order for things like pendants and key chains. Why should I buy your official ones? You sell them too expensively. ? Or do you want to 'pure your blood'?"
The nine people were silent.
That makes sense.
"Not to mention small cards and postcards, you can print them easily. There are a lot of them at the stalls at the school gate. How can you distinguish between genuine and pirated copies?" Qin Jue continued to ask.
"Well... indeed..." Shi Yan masked pain.
He knows the controversial topics among the fan community best. Take spending money as an example. Some people’s standard is “official online account + all albums + following offline at least once” to be called a real Qiansehua, while some people think that as long as they like "Thousand Colors" songs and those who have supported the genuine version are Qian Color Flowers. Fans with different ideas have quarreled several times over this matter. Although the spread is not large, Shi Yan's intensive search for feedback has seen all these turmoils. .
"The second principle is to be practical." Qin Jue said.
"Hmm, accessories?" Jiang Qing'e gestured, "Bracelets, bracelets, necklaces, etc..."
"Yes, but my suggestion is daily necessities, the kind of daily necessities that are really easy to use and used every day."
Qin Jue further explained, "You seem to have a misunderstanding, that is, you think that most of your fan base is young people, even younger sisters than you."
"Hmm..." The nine people fell into deep thought.
"I have a friend. I have three friends." Qin Jue corrected, "One is a 22-year-old female; one is a 23-year-old male; one is a 36-year-old male. They are all fans who registered with you." She looked at "Thousand Colors".
The five young men nodded seriously, their expressions showing a bit of surprise when they heard the thirty-six-year-old man, and then they turned into surprise.
Yes, I was mentioning the band’s songs just now. Many of the fans who like songs such as “Stubborn” and “Li Ge” are elderly. It’s not surprising to buy memberships to express their love. The background data also shows that this age group The proportions are not small.
It’s just that everyone subconsciously felt that these people would not love buying peripherals as much as young fans, so they took it for granted and ignored it, and did not propose a targeted peripheral design plan.
"You are an idol group leading a new era. It is no exaggeration to say that in a few years, your fan base will range from six to sixty years old."
Qin Jue said, "National League, can you understand? Are you aware of it?"
The understatement of the question made the hearts of several half-year-old children beat loudly.
"So, it would be better if the surrounding area is highly practical and suitable for all ages."
Qin Jue continued, "Take a shopping bag as an example. The craftsmanship should not be exquisite or gorgeous, but should be large in capacity and of high quality. It should also not be printed with big portraits or group photos. It would be embarrassing to just put the concept logo of the concert."
"The goal is that students can carry books, college students can carry computers, and middle-aged people can carry them to the market to buy groceries."
"Um……"
Everyone lowered their heads and groaned.
"The T-shirt is good, keep it. The support stick is changed into a smaller hand lamp. The badge is made of metal to increase the collection value. How do you calculate the bracelets, sell them in different support colors?"
"Yeah." Jiang Qing'e nodded.
"Then you two...?" Qin Jue looked at Lou Lan and Liang Yixuan.
"Well, we are also considering this issue." Liang Yixuan put his hand on his forehead.
"Then cancel it, reduce the number of 'personal' peripherals as much as possible, and focus on the group. By the way, have you heard of the group fan?"
Qin Jue suddenly remembered this matter.
"Uanfan?"
"It's about this big." Qin Jue gestured, "Su City's intangible cultural heritage, including tapestry and embroidery."
"Oh...! I've heard of it." The children nodded one after another.
"It doesn't have to be at the level of intangible cultural heritage. Considering the cost and profit, it's okay to print some stickers with personal portraits and team portraits and stick them on plastic fans. Of course, I hope you take it seriously." Qin Jue said.
"The main purpose of the round fan is not to collect, but to convey information. For example,"
Qin Jue imitated it with the palm of his hand and held it up to his collarbone. "It doesn't emit light. It's not as conspicuous as a light sign and affects the stage effect. It's also not as long as a hand. If it is spread out, it will block the sight of other spectators. It's so big." , hold it in front of your chest, not exceeding the height of your chin. When you pass by, you can see who the big picture is on it and know whose fan this fan is."
"Green and pollution-free, safe and pollution-free, and easy to spread... By the way, don't make it transparent, because it can't be seen clearly, and it looks a bit cheap."
"Xuan paper." Xia Song said coldly.
"Okay." Qin Jue glanced at him appreciatively, "It must be thicker. You can add some colored trim according to the supporting colors. Add more ribs on the back to fix the fan. It must be strong. It is also good to add a layer of waterproof film, as well as the fan handle and pendant. You can make a fuss about it.”
"By the way, we can also promote our country's traditional culture." She turned to "Not Gray."
The four girls with many foreign fans smiled.
"Then, you will simultaneously produce a DIY utensil fan set, which contains blank utensil fans and decorative materials."
Qin Jue began to show his capitalist face, "Record a video, or start a live broadcast, and manually show the fans the whole process of DIY."
"Oh...!" The nine people looked like they were opening the door to a new world.
"For example, I can write, make collages, and paste the words 'sympathy' on a blank round fan."
Qin Jue stretched out his two palms and placed them on his collarbone, "Putting them together with your official fan like this means 'Qi Shuang, please show me your feelings.'"
"Wow, this is interesting!" The children themselves wanted it.
"Give me a kiss~" Xing Yufei said and blew a kiss.
"You can also compare it with Ye. Oh, there are too many strokes in Ye, so let's compare it with a v." Liang Yixuan said.
"I believe in the creativity of fans." Qin Jue said with a smile, "I bet you can even see the word 'guessing' on the round fan, and then the fan can share it with others when he goes back and says, 'I played with Yang Jihan at the concert Rock, paper, scissors, and beat him'."
"Pfft hahahahahaha..."
"Okay! It's really interesting!!"
"Make this a tradition." Qin Jue said, "We have said before that we will never allow any form of filming at our concerts. Fans are not allowed to bring cannons, and they are not allowed to take direct shots. In short, unlike all current idol groups Draw the line at tacit consent to videotaping.”
"'Now that you are here, enjoy the stage' - this is the meaning of the round fan."
She had a sly look on her face, "One hand holds a hand lamp and the other hand holds up to two fans. Let me see who raises the phone again."
"puff!!"
"He actually has this trick!"
Shi Yan and the others laughed together.
The issue Qin Jue mentioned is very critical. Currently, in Dragon Kingdom’s performances, except for concerts, plays, etc., filming is strictly prohibited. General concerts do not require filming, which results in idols performing on stage, and the audience watching. A piece of mobile phone brushed.
To be honest, this greatly affects the experience.
No one wants to interact with the audience and only see the rear cameras of mobile phones instead of real and vivid human faces.
"Are you here to see me, or are you here to shoot material?" - Similar self-questioning will be like a needle piercing my heart, gradually weaving into unspeakable disappointment.
When it reaches the point where I feel like "I'm like a clown, being watched and photographed in a zoo", it's almost the time when the idol's depression attacks.
Apart from these subjective feelings, there are also objective negative impacts.
Video cameras, telephoto cameras, and even mobile phones with selfie sticks seriously block the view of the audience in the back row.
Fans had no complaints, it was all because of their love for their idols.
As long as they can see live idols singing and dancing on stage and realizing their stage dreams, they feel very happy.
But what about the audience who actually want to come and enjoy the show? How innocent they are.
At the concerts of other idol groups, the proportion of this part of the audience may be pitifully small, but "Not Gray" and "Thousand Colors" are different. Their strength is there, and there must be far more than those passionate people sitting at the scene. A star chaser who generates electricity through love.
Therefore, this aspect must be strictly controlled.
After listening to Qin Jue explain these key points one by one, Qi Shuang and others nodded one after another.
This kind of behavior is just like the membership system and real-name admission system they implement. It is very strict and even overbearing. However, it is precisely by holding the control in your hands that you can ensure the maximum quality and experience of the stage performance, so that everyone can Every audience who came to the scene enjoyed the audio-visual feast they deserved, and it was a worthwhile trip.
