Chapter 962: Increase in Quota
The process of the autograph session is quite different from the autograph sessions that Jiang Yuan has held in the past because of the addition of a performance and interactive segment.
It's not like a concert, which is purely performance-oriented.
The nature of the entire event is more like a small fan meeting.
"We need to control the length of the autograph session. Five hundred people is still a bit too many."
The meeting was temporarily held in the living room of the hotel room, and Zhang Qing mentioned this.
If it is a normal scale of autograph session, two hundred fans is usually the limit.
As for Jiang Yuan's previous autograph signing scale, it was no longer within the normal range.
"Indeed, if we want to add performances and interactive sessions, we will have to limit the time each person has to sign," the assistant nodded.
At this time, everyone's attention was focused on Jiang Yuan.
Like previous book signing events, the studio basically set a time limit.
But when it came to the actual implementation on site, it would be interrupted because Jiang Yuan was soft-hearted, resulting in failure of implementation.
"Don't worry, you just need to pay attention and remind me this time, I will definitely cooperate." Feeling the pressure of the gazes at the scene, Jiang Yuan immediately spoke.
The main thing is the 500 fans. Jiang Yuan just thought about it carefully with Zhang Qing and others, and found that if everyone stayed a little overtime, the event would probably be difficult to proceed smoothly.
So at times like this, someone really needs to stand up and speak out in a firm and firm manner to remind people.
If it was like before, Jiang Yuan knew that there was a possibility that not all the signatures would be completed on the spot, which would be bad.
"On the one hand, the length of each person's autograph session needs to be controlled, and the other is the arrangement of the performances and interactions at the autograph session," Zhang Qing continued.
"It would be better to set up some activities in the venue. Otherwise, many fans at the scene would probably feel bored when I'm signing autographs." Jiang Yuan said after thinking for a while.
According to the previous plan, I spent at least a few hours signing albums.
There were no performances scheduled during this period, and Jiang Yuan felt that it would take too long to just sit there.
"It's something we can consider, but I think the fans won't be too bored at the scene."
“This time, with only 500 people on site, everyone’s seats were arranged very close together.”
The assistant thought for a moment and said that he also felt that since the fans were at the scene and were in the same space with Jiang Yuan at close range, it was unlikely that they would be bored.
But we still discussed together what kind of arrangements should be made at the signing event.
“We can conduct online joint activities with Yuan Universe, just like what we launched outside the concert venue before.”
"You can also set up some interactive games among fans to accumulate points. Fans who get more points at the end can also use their points to redeem prizes or something like that."
"This is good. We also need to create more atmosphere for the scene, such as choosing background music, and arranging some bosses to interact with the scene at intervals."

When it was time to formally present suggestions, the studio staff also put forward their own ideas.
Jiang Yuan listened carefully one by one and got some useful suggestions from them.
"There are only two days left. Let's see if we can implement something that is not that complicated. Let's try it out on the field first."
Jiang Yuan finally thought about it seriously and said that now that they had arrived in the city where the autograph session was to be held, it would be more convenient to put it into practice.
"Ok." Zhang Qing and others agreed and wrote down the plans that Jiang Yuan thought were feasible.
"Then it's time for the performance session of the autograph session." Jiang Yuan pointed to the autograph session process written on the paper in front of him.
"This time cannot be too long." Zhang Qing said on the side.
After all, it was just a signing event, not a music festival or a dedicated performance.
In addition, the previous signing session had already taken a long time. If he performed for a longer time, it would not be very good for Jiang Yuan's physical strength, not to mention other things.
Another point is that it will make fans who buy tickets to watch concerts or music festivals feel unbalanced.
"Maybe arrange about five or six songs." Jiang Yuan said after thinking for a while.
"Then let's do five songs. This way the duration can be controlled within twenty minutes." Zhang Qing further finalized the number of songs to be performed.
"Okay, then I'll discuss the performance repertoire with the band later." Jiang Yuan nodded.
So far, the general process of the autograph session has been arranged.
After the meeting, everyone started to get busy immediately.
Mainly to ensure a better implementation of this autograph session, Jiang Yuan left the hotel and went to a nearby practice room that the team had rented in advance to take vocal lessons.
The vocal class just happened to be over, so I could take the opportunity to finalize the repertoire for the autograph session and rehearse.
The vocal teacher was introduced by Paul, the lead singer of the Blue Light Band. It is said that he has trained many great vocalists in his career and is very famous in many record companies.
The vocal teacher named Leah always had a smile on her face when she was teaching Jiang Yuan.
After attending the class, Jiang Yuan found that he still had a lot of room for improvement, so he booked many lessons before returning home.
Leah was quite happy before she came to teach Jiang Yuan, but she didn't think Jiang Yuan could learn anything, after all, there were not many courses.
So I came to class more with the intention of getting to know Jiang Yuan. After all, both Omega and Jiang Yuan are doing very well in their jobs as a singer.
But after the class started, Jiang Yuan's performance surprised Leah.
With Jiang Yuan's current singing skills, he has already reached the level of a powerful singer. At least when he performs live, the audience will have a good listening experience. It is not an exaggeration to say that his singing is as stable as a CD.
During the first class, Leah pointed out a shortcoming in Jiang Yuan's singing.
It's too complicated, and the switching of singing styles and techniques is very complex.
To Jiang Yuan, Leah's comments were absolutely to the point.
Just like many singers, while developing their own unique singing style, they will inevitably develop some not-so-good habits.
And for Jiang Yuan, this bad habit is somewhat complicated.
In the past two years, the reason why his singing skills have improved so rapidly is, on the one hand, not only because of his own efforts in vocal music, but also because every time he gets a song from the system, he will also acquire some corresponding singing techniques, allowing Jiang Yuan to perform these songs better.
This resulted in Jiang Yuan, when singing songs by different singers, still having some of the characteristics of the original songs, despite trying his best to achieve uniformity.
This is what Leah called too complicated. So these days, what Jiang Yuan wanted to learn from Leah was to achieve unity in singing.
It would be more accurate to say that I was sorting out the abilities I had already mastered with the help of Leah so that I could apply them better.
This is also the main reason why Leah is very happy to teach Jiang Yuan. With just a little guidance, Jiang Yuan will make rapid progress.
As a teacher, this alone makes Leah feel very accomplished.
"At the current rate, by the time you perform at the autograph session, there should be a big difference." During the break between classes, Leah said to Jiang Yuan with a satisfied tone.
"Yes." Jiang Yuan was also very happy, and simply selected a song from the songs he had practiced and prepared to perform it as one of the songs at the signing event.
When I think about Jiang Yuan’s improvement in singing skills, if the news spreads in the circle, it will also be a good publicity for me.
After all, Jiang Yuan’s courses only have a few classes in total, and such progress is enough to show the value of his teaching.
Thinking of this, Leah couldn't suppress the smile on her face again.
"Let's stop here for today's class." After practicing another song, Jiang Yuan thought that what he had learned was enough for him to digest and get used to for a while, so he took the initiative to end the class.
"Okay, see you tomorrow." Leah left the practice room with a smile on her face.
After finishing the vocal lessons, Jiang Yuan also called together the band members who had come to London with the team to discuss and agree on the repertoire for the performance.
Because the number of songs to be performed is not too many, and this is a signing event for the album "Healing", the range of song selection has also been confirmed.
Considering that Jiang Yuan had to sign autographs for several hours and his condition might deteriorate, he did not choose songs that were too physically demanding or difficult.
In this way, the performance repertoire was officially determined in a short while.
There would not be any overly complicated stage arrangements on site. Jiang Yuan greeted the band members and started rehearsing directly in the practice room.
I just finished a vocal lesson, and now I am using it in rehearsal, which is also a process of digestion.
With some simple changes in the singing style, when Jiang Yuan sings the same song again, the sound quality has only changed slightly, which can better highlight Jiang Yuan's original voice. At the same time, there is not much difference when compared with the studio version.
But for Jiang Yuan himself, the experience is quite different.
The first and most intuitive feeling is that it is less strenuous when singing, and I can finish the whole song in a more relaxed manner without tensing myself too much.
After a day of rehearsal, the band members were more keenly aware of the changes in Jiang Yuan's singing.
Confirming his own progress is also something that makes Jiang Yuan happy.
After the rehearsal, he updated his status on Yuan Universe and sang a short piece of a song from the album.
It just happens to be a promotion for the album "Healing".
After being online for a few days, the album "Healing" has achieved impressive results.
In terms of sound source, word of mouth and sales volume, it can be said that they have achieved success in many aspects, but the main focus is on comprehensiveness.
It's not just music critics like Aaron who have been optimistic about Jiang Yuan early on. Some professional music review organizations have also given relatively high scores to the album "Healing", believing that it will be a very meaningful album.
As for the music charts, they are even less likely to deceive people. It is just like the movie box office. Only if the movie is good will the box office be high.
Only when the music sounds good will the audience buy it.
The album "Healing", which focuses on the concept of care, has been quite popular.
At the moment, Jiang Yuan uploaded his a cappella version of the song "Off My Face" on Yuan Universe, and quickly received a large number of comments and messages.
[Will this song be sung at the autograph session? I’m really looking forward to it! 】
[Is this already being rehearsed? ]
【The a cappella is so nice. 】
[Why does it feel like the baby's singing skills have improved again? 】
【A cappella CD series! 】
-
After uploading the a cappella clip, Jiang Yuan saw comments praising his singing skills, which made him smile.
After all, when sending this video, to some extent he did want to show his improvement in singing skills, and his fans also keenly noticed his progress.
This gave Jiang Yuan a lot of positive feedback, which motivated him to prepare for the next day.
The next day, after finishing his vocal lesson, Jiang Yuan did not stay in the practice room for long, but went directly to the autograph session.
We directly rented a theater to hold this autograph session.
"This place is quite big." After Jiang Yuan entered the theater, he found that there were seats arranged all the way to the second floor.
It's obvious that it can accommodate more than 500 people.
"It seems that the venue can accommodate up to two thousand spectators." Zhang Qing replied on the side.
Jiang Yuan nodded when he heard this, but didn't say anything, just thinking about something secretly.
Then the assistant came forward and began to introduce some previously made arrangements to Jiang Yuan.
These were all things that had been mentioned in the previous meeting, and Jiang Yuan confirmed them one by one.
I retained the feasible activities, but some of them seemed a bit awkward, and those that were not so playable were directly passed.
"The autograph table will be located here, and staff will be assigned to organize fans to line up."
Walking all the way to the stage, the staff introduced Jiang Yuan one by one.
After walking through the entire signing event, Jiang Yuan had almost finalized the entire process of the event.
"Let's try this process for the first signing event, and then see if there is anything that can be improved the next day." Jiang Yuan said finally.
After explaining everything to the studio staff, Jiang Yuan also found Zhang Qing to discuss another matter.
"I've seen that if we only accommodate 500 fans, there will probably be quite a lot of empty seats on site, so I wonder if we can add a few more places," Jiang Yuan suggested.
"You mean to arrange some more spots for spectators who will not participate in the signing but only watch on site." Zhang Qing immediately understood what Jiang Yuan meant.
