superstar director

Chapter 446 Begins
However, compared to Ning Sheng's English album "Don't Cry", his Mandarin album "Goodbye" is the most amazing album in the world this year!
When Ning Sheng's English album repeatedly set new records in the Western world, Ning Sheng's Mandarin album "Goodbye" also tested the courage of musicians in Asia time and time again.

With the confirmation of the news of Ning Sheng's retirement, memories and praises of Ning Sheng, a talented musician, were set off in the entire Asian region, as if to make a comprehensive review of Ning Sheng's singer career The review and summary are the same, Ning Sheng's record as a brilliant singer has been continuously reported by media from all over the world, making many young people realize for the first time that this director who retired in his 30s turned out to be such a powerful singer!
The Mandarin album "Goodbye" sold 460 million copies in the Chinese market within four weeks, and the total sales volume in Asia reached 780 million. Reached more than 800 million, nearly 900 million copies.

Compared with the soaring sales of Ning Sheng's two albums, what makes countless fans crazy is Ning Sheng's upcoming global tour. As Ning Sheng's first and last global tour, all fans who like Ning Sheng don't want to miss it This special farewell ceremony!

At Ning Sheng's retirement press conference, Ning Sheng described the tour as a farewell to his fans, and the fans also regarded this tour as their best wishes and final farewell to Ning Sheng, so this large-scale tour has already With the help of the media, it has become a feast for fans all over the world, and it is also the last gathering of Ning Cheng fans!
It was approaching mid-November, and the weather was getting colder and colder. At this time, the ticket sales for Ning Sheng's concert had already started.

The domestic entertainment industry has developed to the present, and the concert has long been a bad street thing.Moreover, in China, people don't seem to be too keen on going to concerts. There are almost only a handful of singers who have been able to hold multiple concert tours and have achieved success.Of course, those concerts in the name of concerts are actually fan clubs, not to mention performances with hundreds or thousands of fans.

Therefore, although there have been several concerts in the industry every year in recent years, some big-name singers have always been cautious about it, holding it in a small venue, losing style, and holding it in a large venue, fearing that the tickets will not sell well. , The contractor will lose money and lose style.

Therefore, in the current domestic music scene, holding a concert has largely become a matter for singers to put gold on their faces and admit to losing money.

Huijie Records has successfully held more than one national and even Asian concert tours in recent years. Of course, every time this kind of large-scale tour is performed, all the big names of the company will be dispatched. A large number of stars can cause a scale effect and attract everyone. Fan groups, so that tickets can be sold more, have always created a good profit.

Of course, for personal tours in China, except for those famous Zhou Tianwang, Ding Xuan and others who can do it, others can at most hold several performances in one venue, and those singers who are not popular or whose works are not enough , and at most a few singing clubs can be settled. This is not just the case in China, it is the case all over the world.

This is in the circle. Although Ning Sheng has never held a formal solo concert before, he has also participated in the tour of the record company, and also performed on the street when promoting the new album. Ning Sheng's appeal has always been attracted by the media and The fans admit it.

But even so, in these years, Ning Sheng has always been very cautious about holding concerts. One is that he is lazy and the concert is too tiring. Disappointed, let the media make jokes, and the second is that although domestic commercial performances have always been very popular, the concerts have never been popular.There is no comparison with the concert market in Europe and the United States. Although some people say that it is because many old rock bands tour in Europe and the United States, they are suitable for tour performances, but European and American pop singers do have more concerts than China, and more than Asian singers. a fact
To put it simply, as long as someone is willing to spend money to invite celebrities to sing and perform, and let people watch it for free, the venue will be full, but if you let fans buy tickets to go in and listen to the concert, then I'm sorry, everyone will not give up.Moreover, Asian fans are always a little more restrained than European and American fans, and the atmosphere on the scene always seems to be a bit uncomfortable, which makes people feel a little helpless.

Therefore, Ning Sheng didn't make up his mind until he decided to quit the music industry, and held a real, large-scale, high-level concert. Even if the tickets couldn't be sold and he lost money, he would do it for himself. Make a perfect end to your singing career.

However, Ning Sheng's worry is obviously unnecessary!

The first show was in Kyoto, and the performer's confidence in Ning Sheng was absolutely sky-high. When doing a concert for another singer, they were afraid that the tickets would not be sold and there would be a lot of empty seats. It will affect the follow-up word-of-mouth, so I would rather lose money, and forcefully reduce the number of seats available for sale to the safest number through stage construction and other links.

But even so, from the show business to those singers, they are still worried that they will lose too much.

Not to mention the venue fee, there are stage designers, lighting engineers, sound engineers, stylists, choreographers and a series of staff needed for the performance, all of which need to be paid by the show business!Therefore, in order to save money as much as possible, the quality of many concerts cannot be guaranteed, which makes fans very disappointed, and then forms a vicious circle. The quality of concerts is getting worse and worse, and fans are less and less afraid to buy tickets. .

However, these problems are not a problem for Ning Sheng at all. When the show business received this list from Huijie Records, it was like a miracle from heaven, and the luckiest piece of pie fell on his head.

Therefore, during the preparation process, it was completely in accordance with the requirements of the record company and Ning Sheng. Whether it was the performance staff or the bodyguards, they were all the best, top-notch, and they patted their chests to guarantee that the performance The stage must be the most gorgeous and the best in China!

In this regard, Ning Sheng naturally believed that because he also participated in the design of the stage, a large sum of money was invested in it. This is an astronomical sum for a concert in China, and even in the whole of Asia, so it was built with money. The stage, Ning Sheng believed, would satisfy everyone.

Of course, the most important thing about the performance is Ning Sheng, and for this, Ning Sheng has been preparing for nearly three months without precedent. He is really very, very hard, and regards this tour as a sacred farewell to all fans and a blessing!

Half a month in advance, the venue has just been built.He went over with Wu Mei to walk around and test the sound.

In short, everyone could see it, and Ning Cheng, who was used to seeing big scenes, actually felt a little nervous.That's because this tour is very important to him!Also because at the beginning of the month, the tickets went on sale, and the 10 tickets for the Bird's Nest in Kyoto were swept away by netizens in less than [-] minutes.

Maybe other singers will be very happy and happy when they hear the news. That's right, when the show business heard the news, they poured a large glass of white wine happily. .

But for Ning Sheng, he understands that the [-] tickets are [-] fans who support him. Perhaps many of them are old people who have supported him since his debut, like old friends who came to support him. It was like saying goodbye, and upon hearing the news, he had to rehearse more attentively and prepare harder, so as to live up to the support and love of these [-] "friends"!
Three days before the performance, Ning Sheng once again brought the band to the stage that had already been set up, and began to walk around.

After the rehearsal was over, he went to chat with the on-site director. He had seen the stage effects before. It can be said that with the current technology, Ning Sheng couldn't be more impressed with the effects produced by this top stage effect team in China. He thinks he can already give a hundred likes, so he has nothing to say. He is now focusing on the stage team's response to some possible emergencies.

After chatting, I was basically relieved, and the others had rested, Ning Sheng once again called everyone to start rehearsing.

The outside media reporters wanted to block Ning Sheng every day, and then asked Ning Sheng for some new news about album sales and tours. Unfortunately, under the protection of bodyguards, Ning Sheng didn't turn his head at all, and didn't care about these hard and busy work. Paparazzi journalists.

It was already dark early in December.

At five o'clock, the sky began to darken, and the headlights of the Bird's Nest Stadium in Kyoto were already fully lit, illuminating the entire stadium as bright as day. At several entrances of the stadium, the audience who bought tickets to watch Ning Sheng's concert had already Entering in line.

The musicians and staff had already had dinner, and at this time, many people gathered outside the backstage exit to smoke and chat.Ning Cheng changed into sportswear and ran after the stage for a while, sweating a little, then jogged back, greeted everyone at the door with a smile, and then walked in.

The actors and musicians who will be on stage tonight have already signed in at four o'clock in the afternoon, and several special guests have already called, and they are all on their way, and they will arrive in about half an hour.Originally as his farewell tour, Ning Cheng didn't plan to find other singers as guests, but after learning the news that Ning Sheng was going to retire, many big names in the circle called to do Ning Sheng's farewell tour. guest.

It's not those small stars who come here to catch the heat. They dare to call Ning Cheng and ask to be added guests. They are all big celebrities at the level of superstars. The affirmation in music is also equivalent to contributing to Ning Sheng's final curtain call performance, which is a great appreciation for Ning Sheng's music career!
Therefore, after discussing with Mr. Zheng, the performers still accepted it, and it should be considered as an extra surprise for the fans.

It can be said that everything is ready for the concert now, just waiting for the opening.

There was hot wind from the backstage, and it was steaming after entering. Ning Cheng unzipped his sportswear jacket, and when he walked through a lounge, he heard chatter and laughter going on inside, so he knocked on the door and pushed it open to enter.

Sure enough, a group of people gathered in this room.

Ding Xuan, Emma, ​​Britney, Zhou Tianwang, Liu Tianwang, Li Tianhou, and finally Ning Tong and her two best friends. Those two just finished filming their own movie a few days ago, and Shishi's TV series "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" is also on the air
, but tonight, their NLZ group will perform on stage again after two years.

Ning Cheng smiled and said, "Why are you all hiding here? Have you all eaten?"

Everyone nodded, and Ding Xuan asked with a smile, "Are you out for a run? Take it easy. From now on, you won't be able to eat a grain of rice or drink a drop of water."

Ning Cheng smiled, "It's not that exaggerated! It doesn't matter if you don't eat. Anyway, I ate after three o'clock. I won't be too hungry in a while, but I can drink water!"

While talking, he asked Britney again, "You are just out of confinement, are you healthy?"

Britney responded, "I'm an American. We don't have the concept of confinement. After resting for a month, my bones are almost rusted. It's time to move around!"

Ding Xuan also looked at Ning Sheng and said, "Britney is in good health, there is nothing wrong with singing on stage, don't think about it so much now, let alone such things, with my husband here , you just need to rest well and adjust your state.”

Everyone said yes.Emma waved her hands with a look of disgust, "Go, go, go! Don't meddle, go and do your work!"

Ning Cheng smiled, then nodded to the others without saying anything.Turned around and opened the door and went out.

Yang Rui and his new girlfriend were both wearing hats, and the brims of the hats were lowered on purpose. They joined the fans queuing up and slowly entered the arena. A bodyguard walking in the front held a ticket in his hand.

After waiting for a long time, it was finally their turn at the door, and Yang Rui's RB's new girlfriend finally let out a sigh of relief, "It's finally our turn, we are VIP tickets. Why do we have to go this way?"

Yang Rui looked at her and said, "If you go through the passage over there, you will be too close to the backstage."

The new girlfriend stopped talking.She knew that her boyfriend did not have a good relationship with Ning Sheng. She had learned about these things through collecting news on the Internet on the first day she met Yang Rui, but what she didn't understand was that since the relationship between the two was not good, then he Why do you want to come to the other party's concert?I really don't understand!
Just as Yang Rui and others were queuing up to enter the arena, at the entrance on the other side, Mr. Zheng and the bosses given by some other record companies had already entered the arena.

Of course, their VIP tickets are all friendship tickets presented by Huijie Records.

After entering the arena, he found his seat and sat down, but after a while, Mr. Zheng stood up again, and began to stand in place and look around - the headlights of the stadium had already been lit, and their tickets were indeed VIP tickets, and the seats were very good , is right in front of the stage, so standing still, he can have a panoramic view of the entire auditorium.

It was completely dark outside.

At around [-]:[-] p.m., the auditorium was almost full.

In the music circle, some people got free tickets, some didn't, but not only those who got tickets came, but also many people who didn't get tickets came in by buying their own tickets.

The difference is that some people sat in the VIP area, but many people sat in the ordinary audience.Of course, there are still many people who are too slow to buy tickets, so they can only worry about it at home.

At [-]:[-], the musicians began to take their positions.

At [-]:[-], the headlights in the stadium suddenly dimmed.In the entire audience area, only some dim lights on both sides of the aisle were still on, and the stage was even darker.

There was a round of cheers from the audience.

Afterwards, the reading lights in the musicians area on the stage were turned on.

The fans sitting in the general auditorium excitedly said to themselves, "It's about to start!"
