Chapter 140 Signing Party
Chapter 140 Signing Party
April 4 is Ji Jiashu's birthday.
Sanfujing, a particularly popular business district in Beijing recently, is home to luxury brands from all over the world, and the entire mall is resplendently decorated.
Today's Sanfujing is particularly popular, because the up-and-coming singer Ji Jiashu holds a signing event here.
In the future Internet era, physical albums will gradually decline, album signings will become increasingly rare, and more will rely on online platforms for promotion and sales.
But for now, video stores, bookstores and autograph sessions are still the best choices for singers to sell their albums.
Ji Jiashu was sitting in front of the long table in front of the stage, signing autographs for every fan who brought the album, and at the same time said softly:
"Thank you for your support." Or "Hope you enjoy 18."
That gentle and penetrating youthful voice is like the green buds of willows that have just been stalked in April, and the breeze sweeps them away, making people feel itchy.
The publicity started at nine o'clock, and Ji Jiashu has signed for three hours, but Ji Jiashu still insists on signing and thanking every fan.
This is not the character design given by Yinyu to Ji Jiashu, but Ji Jiashu sincerely believes that being liked by others is something to be grateful for.
Maybe he can't express his gratitude to everyone who likes his music, but since today is a signing event, he can sign one more album if he can.
In addition to the long-repeated signatures, Ji Jiashu will also go on stage to sing one or two songs every half an hour.
Although these songs have been performed publicly on various occasions, such as TV dramas, movies, and variety shows, when Ji Jiashu sang, the scene was still boiling and enthusiastic like a volcanic eruption.
Records need to be recorded repeatedly, and each song is adjusted to a perfect state as much as possible.But the feeling of listening to live singing is always different.
You can see a vivid star showing his work in front of you, everything is so real.
Especially for such a signing event, the distance between the stage and the audience is only about ten meters, and the audience can clearly see Ji Jiashu's every move when singing with their naked eyes.Feel the endless charm that Ji Jiashu exudes when singing.
Of course, there are still some songs that have not been released, and those songs are exclusive surprises for album buyers.
After the two songs were sung, Ji Jiashu obviously felt that his throat was uncomfortable and his body was a little weak. He said to the audience through the microphone:
"Give me a 5-minute break, everyone, and then we can continue signing, shall we?"
"it is good!"
The fans around answered in unison.
Among them were Ji Jiashu's loyal listeners in Central Music, and some audiences who fell in love with Ji Jiashu because of film and television episodes or variety shows, but more than half of them were onlookers who were attracted by Ji Jiashu's singing at the scene.
They all noticed Ji Jia's seriousness in signing and performing just now.It was already close to noon, so they would naturally agree with Ji Jiashu to take a break.
Let alone 5 minutes, they are willing to do it for half an hour.
In the rest area behind the temporary stage, manager Li Ge handed Ji Jiashu a pocket and urged Ji Jiashu to eat something quickly.
Judging from this posture, it must be a tough battle this afternoon.
When I opened my pocket, I saw that it was indeed "Cake World" and "One Tree". These two stores have branches in Sanfujing, and Brother Li ordered the staff to make a special trip to buy them.
In the past six months, Ji Jiashu often did not run around or do activities outside, and there were countless times when he ate fast food box lunches.
If there are "One Tree" and "Cake World" around, Ji Jiashu will give priority to them, which is convenient and safe. Of course, it is very important. This is Zhao An's family enterprise, so of course it needs to support it.
By the way, the working meals of Ji Jiashu's entire team became Zhao An's products.Ji Jiashu completely forgot that he was also the major shareholder of Shi An.
At this time, facing his favorite hot and sour potato shredded egg cake, Ji Jiashu just took a few bites and put it down.It wasn't because he was bored, but because he knew that he would be sleepy after eating, so the signing and performance in the afternoon would be troublesome.
So resting is not for eating. Ji Jiashu asked the fans for these 5 minutes. In fact, there are more important things:
"Brother Li, please help me rent a piano as soon as possible. If the grand piano is not convenient, an upright piano is also fine, but the sound of the piano must be accurate."
The manager immediately heard that there was something wrong with Ji Jiashu's voice, which was much lower than usual.
"Sore throat?"
"It's okay for the time being, I'm afraid that going on like this in the afternoon will affect the singing, so make preparations in advance...
Nodding his head confirmed the agent's guess.
The intensity of the signing this morning has indeed exceeded Ji Jiashu's expectations. He has been talking about communicating with fans, and he can still persist for three hours in the morning, but how many hours in the afternoon?
It is impossible to cancel the performance every half hour. There will be promotional activities tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Ji Jiashu must protect his voice and can only choose to slightly change the content of the performance.
The manager didn't hesitate after hearing this, and directly arranged for someone to do it.
Five minutes was short, and Ji Jiashu returned to his seat at the front desk without any delay.The one who came back with Ji Jiashu also had the milk tea in Ji Jiashu's hand.
Milk tea contains enough sugar, which can provide some calories for Ji Jiashu, and at the same time help Ji Jiashu moisten his throat.
But Ji Jiashu didn't dare to drink too much, and took a small sip every time to ensure the condition of his throat.
Countless media and fans used their mobile phones to record this pleasing scene.
Ji Jiashu was selling at the front, and the brokers in the backstage were not idle, and they had been dealing with various chores.
The most serious problem at present is that the number of live albums is not enough.
今天是《18》正式发售了日子,音娱为今天的签售会准备了3000张专辑。这在2000年已经是一个很夸张的数字了,毕竟此时每年的冠军专辑也就3、40万的销量。
A signing event can sell 1% of the sales volume of the championship album, which is unimaginable for Music Entertainment.
But considering Ji Jiashu's high popularity in Yangyin, many students may support Ji Jiashu.Moreover, Ji Jiashu's previous publicity activities also focused on the capital and the center, which has somewhat cultivated some fans.That's why the company prepared 3000 albums.
However, Music Entertainment still underestimated Jiashu, fans' purchasing power, cohesion, popularity, and music appeal were all underestimated.
It is no exaggeration to say that Ji Jiashu's live singing is enough to make passers-by willing to pay for an album to try.
Ji Jiashu's singing skills are quite solid, otherwise he would not have become a man of the hour in Yangyin.In Yangyin, everyone attaches great importance to the basic ability of singing.
The youthful voice and excellent singing skills can already make people stop and listen.And when passers-by begin to appreciate the melody and lyrics, they will not be far from being conquered by Ji Jiashu.
Not to mention that several of the songs are familiar film and television episodes, and before twelve o'clock at noon, the 3000 albums are almost sold out.
The agent had to contact Music Entertainment immediately to ship the spare albums in stock to the signing site.
The person in charge of the marketing department of the audio entertainment company also revealed to manager Li Fei that the sales of albums in various regions are quite gratifying, and some audio-visual stores have already started to ask for replenishment.
The [-] albums recorded at the beginning may not be enough.The company is having a meeting to discuss the second recording, and they are also going to ask Ji Jiashu for his opinion.
In addition, there is also a question about the venue. Because the popularity of the signing event far exceeded expectations, a large number of fans gathered in Sanfujing Shopping Center, and the most central area was already overcrowded.
Chinese people love to watch the excitement. At first, there were only fans. Later, no matter whether they knew Ji Jiashu or liked Ji Jiashu's songs, people would naturally crowd together.
This kind of crowding can only be caused by first-line actors or singers. People have speculated about which big star has come, and they are reluctant to leave for a long time, falling into a vicious circle again.
The most feared thing in China is group practice, so the mall and the public security department immediately sent people to inquire about the situation.
Manager Li Fei had to deal with them, even if Yinyu was quite influential in the capital, it was very troublesome at this time.
But these are sweet burdens for the agent, he can already see Ji Jiashu's bright future.
After Ji Jiashu returned to the autograph booth, he continued to cycle through autographs and performances.
After three o'clock in the afternoon, the temporarily rented grand piano was finally delivered to the Sanfujing shopping mall. Seeing the arrival of the piano, Ji Jiashu was obviously relieved.
It was time for Ji Jiashu's performance again, and many fans stayed in the mall just to listen to Ji Jiashu's live singing.
When Ji Jiashu signed the sale, they would go shopping, eat or go shopping.And every time it was time for Ji Jiashu to perform, they would return to the center of the shopping mall one after another, waiting for Ji Jiashu's performance.
"Ji Jiashu!", "Ji Jiashu!"...
The cheers of the audience resounded throughout the shopping mall, and customers farther away also walked towards the center of the sound waves.
Ji Jiashu was afraid that such noise would affect the normal operation of the mall, so he immediately put his finger on his lips and said softly:
"Shh, can you all keep your voice down?"
In a fanatical atmosphere, fans often lose their minds, so it is difficult to control the emotions of fans during live singing.
But at this time all the fans quickly quieted down, because they could all hear that Ji Jiashu's voice was obviously hoarse.Reminiscent of Ji Jiashu's use of his throat from morning to now, naturally he feels a little distressed.
"I didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic. I really appreciate your support for "18". But everyone has heard my voice and may not be able to continue singing, so I will show you another specialty of mine, the piano, please?"
"it is good!"
The concise and loud answer resounded throughout the shopping mall again, and Ji Jiashu had to say that he stretched out his index finger again to signal everyone to be quiet.
The entire venue seemed to have pressed the mute button, as if even the space had become empty.
In such silence, Ji Jiashu sat in front of the piano and began his performance.
A "Nocturne" and a "Dedicated to Alice" turned the originally noisy shopping mall into a concert hall for enjoyment.
After the performance, Ji Jiashu returned to his seat and continued to sign. Just when Ji Jiashu raised his head and was about to thank the fans, he was stunned.
Because the fan in front of him put his right index finger on the center of his lips and said slightly: "Shh".
The fans' caring smiles made Ji Jiashu instantly understand the meaning of his fans.
He no longer forced his words, but responded to the fans with exactly the same movements, understanding each other, showing a tacit smile.
This fan was the first to make a "quiet" gesture, but since she started, every fan who walked up to Ji Jiashu would make the same gesture.
They knew that after a whole day of thanks and performances, Ji Jiashu's voice had reached its limit.
Maybe they fell in love with Ji Jiashu not long ago, but they are already thinking about Ji Jiashu's body.
The originally noisy signing session was suddenly quiet and orderly, and Ji Jiashu made exactly the same movements as every fan.When it's performance time, Ji Jiashu will step onto the stage to play the piano for everyone.
When Ji Jiashu felt that his throat was a little better and wanted to sing a song for everyone, all the fans in the audience raised their fingers and made a "quiet" gesture to Ji Jiashu.
At that moment, Ji Jiashu was so moved that he couldn't express it. He said slowly and carefully:
"Would you like to come to my concert in the future? I will definitely sing for you, okay?"
"it is good!"
The fans at the scene answered in unison, causing the shopping mall, which was quiet just now, to suddenly crumble again.
