The opening of China Entertainment Group gave Jay Chou a head-on confrontation

Chapter 597 Zhou Yi once said
He thought he was used to being praised by others, but when those aunts, uncles, familiar neighbors and even unfamiliar villagers all looked at him with affirmation or admiration;
After casting an extremely envious look at his parents, he realized that he was superficial.

My understanding of that wise saying is superficial.

Hometown and the outside world are, after all, two concepts.

Especially when he saw that he was everywhere in his hometown this time, the vulgar vanity in his heart was greatly satisfied.

"I'm telling you, Old Qian, the TV stations don't even show ads for men's hospitals, you know that, I'm really big on face."

During the rehearsal at the Shangrao Gymnasium, Zhou Yi's mouth was grinning wider than anyone else's when he talked with Qian Jiang about the current situation.

Advertisements for andrology hospitals, TV shopping ads, and advertisements for traditional Chinese medicine experts are the three revenue-generating treasures of Shangrao TV Station. Zhou Yi has no idea how many of them he has seen before.

This time, in order to build momentum for him, a lot of things were stopped and replaced with publicity about him.

This is really valuable.

"I thought there was an advertisement for a men's hospital looking for you. You scared me." Qian Jiang, with a kind smile, looked at Zhou Yi, who was rarely showing off like a peacock with its tail spread out, and joked.

"Get lost."

Zhou Yi cursed with a smile.

Does he look like the kind of guy who needs to endorse a men's hospital?!

"Are all things ready? Let's try them out first to avoid mistakes." After showing off, Zhou Yi finally returned his mind to the concert and spoke as he glanced around the stage.

"Row."

Qian Jiang gestured to the staff and nodded in response.

As Zhou Yi's hometown, Shangrao is also his only concert without guests so far.

At the same time, because the venue is small, some stage designs are actually easier to create than in a large venue.

For example, spray plum blossom petals.

..............................

"The heat wave of Zhou Yi's concert is coming, and Shangrao is on fire in winter!"

"In a frenzy of atmosphere, Zhou Yi's concert tickets are once again sold at high prices. Who is to blame?"

"Star effect! Fans from Shanghai, Hangzhou and other cities gathered at Shangrao Stadium on December 12!"

"..."

Time passed as Zhou Yi rehearsed day by day. As the concert date approached, the remote city of Shangrao clearly experienced the New Year atmosphere in advance. The consumption fever in the main urban area was rising, and the merchants were smiling.

Especially those that can use slogans such as "Zhou Yi's Favorite Food" and "Zhou Yi's Strict Selection", many fans from other places are willing to try them.

The mobile pancake stalls, breakfast stalls and barbecue stalls that used to be set up in front of the school were making a lot of money.

"Auntie, what is this called? This is a big piece skewered together with bamboo sticks."

“This, this is called vegetarian chicken.”

"Veggie chicken? What's that? Forget it, give me two skewers and a fried chicken stick."

After hesitating for a while, Xu Yue finally decided to eat something first.

She had never eaten such a big piece of vegetarian chicken before. After she coated it with chili oil and took a bite, the crispy, tender and smooth taste made her call herself an expert.

The food here in Shangrao is good.

It was Xu Yue's first time to visit this city and he was very pleased with his first impression of the city.

Whether it is the Zixi soup noodles, Yangkou fried noodles, or the fried rice cakes cut into slices, the taste is really good.

Delicious and love to eat.

It's just a little spicy.

She clearly ordered it slightly spicy.

"Yueyue, where are you? It's time to go to the gym."

"I'm eating at Zhou Yi's former high school. I'll be there soon. Wait for me at the gymnasium entrance."

Xu Yue, who came from Hangzhou to chase stars, hung up the phone, asked the aunt at the stall to get a small packaging box to cover it, and then stood on the roadside to hail a rickshaw: "Uncle, go to Shangrao Stadium."

"Gymnasium, you are here to see Zhou Yi as well, right? You are not a local?"

"Yeah uncle, did you pull a lot of people to the gym?"

"Yes, we all go to the gym. Recently, every day for us rickshaw drivers is just like the New Year's Day..."

During the conversation with the rickshaw uncle, Xu Yue, who was eating and chatting at the same time, more or less understood how the rickshaw drivers in Shangrao make money these days - they are just short of worshipping Zhou Yi as the God of Wealth.

After paying the bill at the gymnasium entrance, she looked up while wiping her mouth with a tissue and saw her boyfriend. She couldn't help but wave at him happily: "Liang, I'm here."

As contemporary college students, the two of them skipped classes to watch Zhou Yi's concert.

I skipped the first class in the morning and took a train straight to Shangrao.

There was no way. There was no sign of Zhou Yi's Hangzhou concert for the time being, and Warner hadn't notified them either. They didn't get tickets for the Shanghai concert, but they happened to have gotten tickets for the Shangrao concert, so they naturally set off directly.

The loss is near.

"It feels like a good deal. Our tickets this time..."

As it turned out, although the 5000-seat Shangrao Stadium does look small, after Warner's layout, the seat arrangement somehow felt like a good deal - the two of them bought 188 tickets for the grandstand area, which were not as far away as expected.

Xu Yue was very excited by the magenta glow stick that Warner always placed on the seat. She picked it up and waved it in front of her boyfriend, but she found that his eyes were not on her.

She was a little unhappy.

"What are you looking at?"

"Yueyue, look to the left front. The people holding the Zhou Yi fan club banner, why do they have a plastic box in their hands? Why don't we have one?"

"?"

Confused, Xu Yue looked in the direction her boyfriend was pointing, and what she saw was indeed as he said, many people were holding large boxes that looked like gifts. "This, shouldn't be a gift from Warner, right?"

Xu Yue was a little hesitant.

She didn't quite believe that Zhou Yi would do such a thing.

Obviously, they were not the only ones who noticed this. Many other people also noticed this, and quite a few of them were carrying boxes.

Shangrao Gymnasium has three stands, and basically every part of the three stands has people carrying boxes. The common point is that they all seem to be members of the fan club.

"Is everyone here? Okay, got it. Pay more attention."

Backstage, Qian Jiang, who was talking on the phone, gave instructions, then hung up, straightened his collar, and walked into the locker room.

Zhou Yi, who was dressed in hip-hop rock clothes, had just finished warming up. When he saw him come in, he smiled and raised his hand to high-five him: "Let's go."

"come on."

After high-fiving, Qian Jiang smiled and patted him on the back, then coordinated the entire backstage: "Everyone get ready, Ayi's concert is about to begin. Band, the band will go on stage first to prepare for the opening..."

As a burst of rapid electric guitar sounds came from the speakers, the lights in the entire stadium began to become psychedelic, illuminating the venue in burgundy.

A scene of falling plum blossoms with a strong oriental artistic conception appeared on the big screen at the scene, which complemented the wine-red stage perfectly.

As soon as they saw this scene, they knew the concert had already started and the whole audience started screaming!
"Ahhhhh!!!"

"Book of Changes!!!"

"Zhouyi! Zhouyi! Zhouyi!!!"

There was no particularly fancy way to make an appearance. Zhou Yi, wearing a grey patterned hooded long shirt with his hands in his pockets, walked in front of the audience in a very relaxed manner: "Hey!"

A simple greeting, along with the band's rock version of "By the Plum Tree", is refreshing!
"This is Mengmei falling in love with the fairy in the painting
"That's where Li Niang died for love
"For love, I don't eat, drink or sleep
"But after thousands of years, love between life and death is no longer popular~"

The rock arrangement version of "Beside the Plum Tree" opens with a rap that is spoken at an extremely fast speed but is clearly audible. While singing, Zhou Yi points at the audience with a smile on his face.

As a song with medium to high popularity among Zhou Yi's works, this song, which was originally a fusion of hip-hop and drama, is even more impactful than the original version after adding rock arrangement.

Especially in the climax chorus, the loud singing voice far exceeds the key of the original song——

"Who will pity the plum blossoms falling like snow?

"The wind blows by the willows, leaving people in suspense. Life and death are up to their will..."

The unique excitement of rock music made the already crowded scene even hotter, and the bodies dancing to the rhythm no longer felt the slightest bit of the winter chill.

The gushing out plum blossom petals made a sudden sound like fireworks exploding - and then fell like raindrops, attracting the attention of everyone present!
So much so that by the time the second chorus came around, the place had turned into a disco scene, with everyone shaking their heads and venting the resentment that had been accumulating in their hearts under the flashing wine-red lights!

Zhou Yi picked up the guitar, stood in the center of the stage and jumped high, causing screams. The quickly swept tune directly abandoned the foreshadowing of the original song and pushed the song to its highest climax in an extremely violent way!

"The spring water is gone, the summer flowers are withered
“Whoever hears the autumn cicada knows winter is coming!!!

"Who will pity the plum blossoms falling like snow?

"The wind blows by the willows, life and death are up to one's will

"A thousand years of waiting, the taste is sour and sad, the two people complain

“I miss the Peony Pavilion day after day, year after year without stopping~ eh~ eh~ eh~ eh~ eh~ wu~~~”

At the climax of the chorus, Zhou Yi made four consecutive changes of tone, tilted his head and easily pushed the tune of the whole song to the highest point, making a perfect ending!
The transmitters on the three sides of the stands once again sprayed out a rain of petals - the lights kept refracting back and forth on the petals, reflecting the gorgeous and dazzling colors!

At the end of the song, Zhou Yi on the stage was breathing heavily, and slowly took off the hood that he had worn on his head at some point. Drops of crystal sweat wet his hair. He raised his hands high and enjoyed the roars and cheers of the five thousand people below the stage.

Petals fell from the sky, sprinkling on his head, shoulders and hands.

"Book of Changes!"

"Zhou Yi!!"

"Book of Changes!!!"

After bending slightly to express his gratitude to the fans as they called his name, Zhou Yi put down the electric guitar that he had damaged so much and raised his hand to push back his wet hair.

This move once again caused the female fans at the scene to scream——

"Ahhhhhh!!! Zhou Yi you are so handsome!!!"

"Yeah, not bad, you have good taste."

The side-slicked back hair he had just done before going on stage was now combed into a long back hair by his "hair gel hand". Zhou Yi smiled and raised his hand to point to the audience, saying affirmatively: "I also think I should look more handsome like this."

A hot opening, perfectly achieved.

After singing four songs in a row, including "Stubborn", "Back to Back Hug", "Big City, Small Love" and "Baby", Zhou Yi finally stopped, took a break to drink some water, and selected the first round of lucky audience members to connect with him live on the spot.

After singing five songs and his voice became hoarse, Xu Yue was surprised to find that the lucky light finally fell on him?!
"This classmate, what is your name?"

"Ahhhh!!! Zhou Yi! Xu Yue, my name is Xu Yue, and the person next to me is my boyfriend Wu Ziliang." Xu Yue, who could hardly hide her excitement, broke her voice after receiving the microphone handed over by the staff, and did not forget to show off her love in front of the big screen.

"Okay, classmate Xu Yue, now we all know that you have a boyfriend." Zhou Yi teased with a smile, and Xu Yue's earlobes suddenly blushed.

"Well, as per usual, you can request songs. Do you have any in mind?"

"Well, before ordering songs, I have a small request. I wonder if you, Zhou Yi, can agree to it?" Xu Yue hurriedly raised his hand out of habit.

"What request?"

"I'm studying journalism, and I plan to use you as an example in my graduation thesis next year, so could you please give me a few more famous quotes so that I can write them in my graduation thesis and mark them as quotations from famous people."

"?"

Zhou Yi's eyes widened and he slowly typed a question mark: "Me? Famous quotes?"

"correct."

Xu Yue smiled brightly: "Before I came here, I collected famous quotes from people in our class who wanted to make a wish. This way I can write with confidence, you know, I can write that the world superstar Zhou Yi once said it."

You can try to have Zhou Yi tailor-make famous quotes for you by spending only 188 yuan. This deal is absolutely a steal.
