Chapter 856: Finale
If the previous song "Peter Pan Was Right" was a great way to evoke emotional resonance among contemporary people, then the release of "Maple" can be described as "it's time".
In addition to the suitable seasonal temperature, the latter is, after all, a serious love song.
If we talk about the fans at the scene, they might be distracted by their mood while watching the performance, or the stage design, or Jiang Yuan’s singing skills.
Even if you concentrate while watching the performance, it may not last long, after all, Jiang Yuan's next part of the performance will start not long after.
As for netizens online, a live video about Maple can be watched repeatedly by dragging the progress bar.
At night, when a person is alone and listens to this song, those who have some sad past will be unconsciously brought back to their memories by the song.
Emo love song +1 again.
This is also Jiang Yuan’s second Chinese single recently, and its popularity has not dropped for a while after it reached the top.
Many fans and even passers-by are curious about when they can hear the official version of the song, and they can even be said to be a little anxious.
Precisely because the song is very appropriate for the season, it is a song that many people want to play in their headphones.
After topping the hot search list for a while, the studio finally updated the preview information of the song’s release.
Before the performance at the concert, Jiang Yuan had already completed the recording of the song, and the cover of the single was shot while preparing materials for the stage.
The entire cover is dominated by golden tones, with Jiang Yuan’s back, wearing a white sweater, looking out the window as the main subject of the cover.
Outside the window is a golden-red maple forest, which occupies a larger area on the cover. At the same time, the entire cover is also photoshopped with some golden mist as a filter to outline the atmosphere.
Obviously, with frequent visits to the recording studio, although no formal album production was carried out, a lot of inventory was saved.
In addition to releasing the single cover, the official release date of the song was also announced, which will be at noon on the third day after the finale of Chapter 1.5.
However, compared with the previous single, there is no MV released along with it.
After all, the cost of shooting a formal MV is quite expensive. In addition, Jiang Yuan needs to participate in the shooting in person, and it is difficult to coordinate the schedule.
However, although there is no official MV online, the studio still explained that there will be an official video of the first singing stage of "Maple" online at the same time.
Many fans are quite satisfied with this trailer.
Everyone has already had a taste of what the performance of "Maple" is like through the fan-shot videos sent back from the scene.
Based on the official concert photos produced by Jiang Yuan Studio in the past, the quality is still guaranteed.
Fans at the concert generally believe that the listening experience and the shock brought by the visual effects can be restored to a certain extent.
To a certain extent, the official on-site shooting can also serve as a substitute for the MV.
While the studio's related publicity received a lot of feedback on the Internet, Jiang Yuan spent the last short period of time in the stadium for the final match of Chapter 1.5.
The fans in the audience had already shouted for an encore, and Jiang Yuan had also changed into more casual clothes, and was about to return to the stage.
The only difference from other performances is that Jiang Yuan’s return is not an encore in the usual sense where he only goes on stage to perform one or two songs.
It can also be regarded as a fixed part of the concert. The performance lasts for about half an hour, which makes the fans in the audience feel relatively calm.
"I looked at the time. Two and a half hours have passed since the performance began."
"Generally speaking, by this time in a performance, the physical strength will be greatly consumed. Even some staff members who have watched the performance on site have reported that they feel a little tired. How are you feeling now?"
Jiang Yuan took the initiative to cue the interaction and extended his microphone towards the audience.
At this point in time, although some fans may be physically exhausted, everyone's mental state is obviously very excited.
Hearing Jiang Yuan's question, he immediately began to respond by shouting.
Jiang Yuan took off his earphones, listened carefully for a while, and confirmed that the volume on the scene was no weaker than before.
So he nodded with satisfaction, "It seems that everyone is still in good shape."
"Because today is the finale, you can tell from the arrangement of the first part that we want to present our best performance to everyone."
“So I am not holding back too much physical strength. Even now, I hope everyone can feel the enthusiasm of the final chapter.” Jiang Yuan announced loudly to the audience, and then the music started and the stage design began to change.
As the song started, it was Lu Qing's voice that rang out on the scene. Jiang Yuan chose to sing the single "Flowers" alone.
After the introduction, most of the fans at the scene were surprised to hear the melody of the song.
As a single sung together with Lu Qing, Jiang Yuan has not performed this song in some subsequent shows except for the previous performance where Lu Qing joined in the chorus. At most, he sang a few lines in the form of song request and singing.
“I hope everyone can sing with me later.”
Before the singing began, Jiang Yuan said something again before continuing the performance.
"Flowers" has been online for a while, and through publicity and Lu Qing's promotion, the song has become more popular.
Some music variety shows also chose this song for cover.
With the song becoming so popular, Jiang Yuan’s fans are naturally already familiar with the melody of the chorus, not to mention that the melody is not that complicated.
After Jiang Yuan's cue, the whole audience followed Jiang Yuan and sang together in a highly coordinated chorus.
The photography team also recorded the entire performance and stage, recording this performance that was quite special among many tours and was performed with fans.
The tour of Chapter 1.5 is about to end. The studio has seriously considered the fans' suggestions to release a Blu-ray disc of the concert and has also tried to put it into practice.
After the song "Flowers" ended, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the fans at the scene and praised them, "That's amazing."
While praising, Jiang Yuan also walked to the center of the stage and sat down in front of the piano that had risen again, "Then let's do something different for today's song request session."
After hearing what Jiang Yuan said, everyone at the scene became excited again, wanting to know what kind of changes Jiang Yuan would make in this segment.
"Director, I hope everyone can sing along with me for today's song request." Jiang Yuan said as the live camera began to search for targets among the audience.
The fans who came prepared also held up the large signs they had prepared in advance.
However, this process was not as random as Jiang Yuan's cueing the day before. When the camera scanned, the director did some screening and chose a song that was more suitable for a chorus, or a song that was not so suitable for a chorus.
The former can produce a better chorus effect, while the latter will be more interesting and produce certain program effects.
However, in order to show that the audience had eaten well the day before, Jiang Yuan did not attempt any more stage challenges after the song requesting and singing session was over.
When explaining, he used a more EQ-oriented approach. It was impossible to just say that he would not dance today.
Obviously, judging from the reaction on the scene, everyone was quite satisfied with Jiang Yuan's decision to directly transition to the next set of songs on the grounds that this was the last performance and he hoped to sing more songs for everyone.
Although we didn’t get to see the dance challenge, we were able to listen to more songs, so no one felt at a disadvantage.
"Next, it will be the last song of the show."
After completing the online interaction with Yuan Universe, Jiang Yuan started the last talk of the evening.
"If you pay attention to the ending song of each performance, you will find that each performance has a different song."
"What makes today different from other times is that today is obviously the last game of Chapter 1.5."
"To put it simply, the next song will be the last song of the entire Chapter 1.5 series of concerts."
Jiang Yuan introduced this to the fans at the scene.
After hearing Jiang Yuan's explanation, even though everyone's physical strength had been almost exhausted, they still made reluctant sounds.
Standing on the stage, Jiang Yuan was actually a little dazed.
Just as Jiang Yuan himself said during the talking session, in previous shows he had allocated his physical strength more rationally to support the entire performance.
But thinking that it was the finale today, he didn't hold back too much. When the performance was almost three hours in, Jiang Yuan's condition was not much different from that of some tired fans in the audience. He was basically relying on his mental fortitude to hold on.
“I hope that this next song can bring this event to a brilliant conclusion with everyone at the last moment.”
"The title of the song is also very appropriate for this moment, "In The End"
Jiang Yuan announced the show and it was time to begin.
Many fans guessed the answer in the audience. Many songs in this show have been performed, but this song that received a good response from the audience has never been performed.
The performance is being performed at the last minute, which seems to complement each other.
Although it was the last song, Jiang Yuan completely ran away on the stage. While singing, he ran all over the stage, waving and interacting with the audience in different directions.
During the performance, all the audience stood up from their seats, waving their cheering lights, and stood with Jiang Yuan until the last song.
"See you next time!"
At the end of the performance, the band continued to play the melody of "In The End", and Jiang Yuan stood on the lift platform and waved goodbye to all the fans.
"Everyone, please be safe on your way home"
Fireworks exploded around the stage, streamers fluttered, Jiang Yuan's figure gradually disappeared from the stage, but his voice still rang out on the scene.
It was not until Jiang Yuan's figure completely disappeared from the stage that the audience realized that the performance had officially ended.
While feeling a sense of loss, I also felt a sense of fulfillment and abundance in my heart.
The ending of the night brought enough surprises. Until the end of the show, everyone couldn't help talking and discussing how worthwhile it was.
In addition, when leaving, I was holding a bag of considerable souvenirs in my hands.
Although there is still a sense of unreality as if in a dream, even so, the souvenirs have been fished out from the dream.
On the other side, there was a photographer following Jiang Yuan until he returned to the backstage.
As the final show of the 1.5 tour, there are many more records both on and off the stage than other shows.
When returning to the backstage, many staff members came forward to high-five Jiang Yuan to celebrate the successful completion of the tour.
With the completion of the entire 1.5 round of tours, all the staff members feel a sense of accomplishment. We worked together to complete a series of excellent performances in terms of completion and reputation, which is naturally worth celebrating.
After everyone high-fived to celebrate, Jiang Yuan found a seat and took a short rest.
While the camera was recording, some staff also asked about Jiang Yuan's mood.
Hearing this question, which is often asked after a concert, Jiang Yuan also thought about it seriously.
In the past, I often felt like the audience after watching a performance, feeling some kind of dreamy, unreal, or empty mood.
However, when the entire tour officially came to an end, Jiang Yuan felt it carefully and shook his head with a smile.
"It was quite fun, especially the last scene, where I was able to perform some of the designs I mentioned before that I couldn't put into practice."
"We were able to perform all the songs that we were not able to perform in China during the previous tour, so I feel quite satisfied."
Jiang Yuan spoke to the camera, and the photographer, holding the camera, nodded silently, thinking that this segment was very suitable for editing into a later video such as a vlog.
After speaking halfway, Jiang Yuan also thought of this point, so he simply continued talking about the topic and ended this paragraph himself.
"We will turn to the next page, and we will meet you all again with greater energy."
Having said this, it served as a lead, and the photographer followed suit and ended the filming.
The fans at the scene gradually dispersed, and Jiang Yuan also packed up and left the scene with Zhang Qing and others.
When it was time to leave, Jiang Yuan also updated the text and pictures that he had prepared in advance on Yuan Universe, as a farewell to this round of tour in Chapter 1.5.
After the vehicle drove out of the venue, Jiang Yuan also waved to the fans who were holding cheering lights along the street.
The next day, Jiang Yuan also held a celebration party for Chapter 1.5 with the team in Jiangcheng before leaving Jiangcheng and flying back to Shanghai, entering a short vacation after the end of the tour.
