Chapter 1119 Coming one after another
The announcement of the "Between the Gaps" tour was timed perfectly before the start of the "Infinite Notes Day 2" performance.

Videos from the music festival the day before had already started circulating online and were getting a lot of views.

If tickets for the music festival hadn't already sold out for the next day, many viewers who watched the video would have felt an urge to rush to Beijing to see Jiang Yuan's performance.

The official announcement of the "Between Gaps" tour concept at this moment can be said to have come at just the right time.

The hashtag #JiangYuan'sLatestTourOfficialAnnouncement# quickly climbed to the top of the trending topics list.

Topics like these are things the studio bought and promoted in advance, but generally, once these types of trending topics appear on the list, their popularity will gradually decline.

However, things were different with Jiang Yuan. Not only fans, but also many passersby were interested in the concert and clicked on the topic to learn more about the concert.

This time, Jiang Yuan's team officially announced their tour, which clearly means they couldn't have just revealed a concept.

In addition to the concept teaser, a lot of information that fans are really looking forward to was also revealed.

For example, information about the first stop of the tour, and the cities where the performances have already been scheduled.

The information disclosed for the first show of the tour is the most complete, including the city venue and the time.

The first stop of the performance was set in Changsha, and the time was scheduled for the end of October.

Unlike the carefully designed concept of the concert, the choice of the first stop of the concert did not have any special meaning. It just so happened that when the team was confirming the venue, Xingcheng was the first place to be finalized.

The release of this information alone is enough to give fans a general understanding of the upcoming concert.

The biggest concern for fans is the size of the performance venue.

Jiang Yuan is preparing to perform in a small venue so that she can have more interaction with the audience on site.

Fans are naturally eager to experience such a performance live.

However, the prerequisite for experiencing it is being able to snag concert tickets.

Even when Jiang Yuan's concerts were held in stadiums with four-sided stages, tickets were already very hard to get.

Now that the venue has been moved to a smaller one, even longtime fans who used to be quick-witted, had strong quiz skills, and almost always got tickets are now worried and checking the maximum number of audience members the venue can accommodate.

After finally finding out that the venue's maximum capacity was less than 10,000, a tense atmosphere of ticket-buying immediately arose on the Yuan Universe website.

[I checked the initial attendance figures, and only 8,000 seats were allocated for the first show. This ticket-buying frenzy is hellish.]

How much? Eight thousand?? Even if you answered the questions, there wouldn't be enough time.

[Good news: This tour might really be coming up soon. Bad news: There's a very high chance you won't be able to get tickets.]

Never mind, let's start booking hotels.

I originally thought they would at least choose a larger stadium.

The small venue is really a great benefit for everyone.

[Could you please add a few more matches to the stadium? Tickets aren't even on sale yet and I already feel like I won't be able to get them. Even 8,000 tickets probably won't be enough to sell out in seconds.]

-

Previously, fans had heard that Jiang Yuan was going to hold a small-venue performance, but they only heard Jiang Yuan talk about it for a long time.

I thought that for a singer like Jiang Yuan, who was used to performing on a four-sided stage in a stadium, performing in a gymnasium was already considered a small venue.

But when it came to the actual number of seats available, no one expected it to be so few.

Especially after the Infinite Notes Music Festival attracted a new wave of fans, the atmosphere suddenly became very tense.

After the official announcement of the "Between the Gaps" tour, Jiang Yuan and her team have been observing the fans' feedback.

In addition to the already scheduled matches, Jiang Yuan and her team have also considered the opinions of fans.

It doesn't mean that we're determined to stick to small venues and not make any changes.

In fact, for Jiang Yuan and her team, performing in small venues is actually less cost-effective.

After all, both Jiang Yuan's performance and the stage design of the entire concert were as genuine and dedicated as ever.

In other words, the same system used in a stadium wouldn't differ too much in cost.

However, if it were a stadium, the number of tickets that could be sold would increase many times over, thus generating much more revenue.

"It seems everyone is quite worried about not being able to get tickets." Zhang Qing and her studio staff had been keeping an eye on things for a while, collecting a general overview of the fans' opinions.

I found that everyone basically had the same attitude: they liked the performances in small venues, but they were also worried about not being able to get tickets.

However, some very loyal fans are quite confident in their ability to answer questions and believe they will definitely be able to get tickets.

“That’s understandable.” Jiang Yuan nodded upon hearing this. The fans had already roughly understood their feelings through the discussions on Yuan Universe.

"Let's book larger venues for the following stops," Jiang Yuan said to Zhang Qing and the others after thinking about it carefully for a while.

The reason why the concept of "between gaps" was chosen as the theme was partly because this tour can be described as preparations that Jiang Yuan squeezed out of time between her busy schedule.

It was originally planned as a small tour, and there weren't many shows.

Later, it was discovered that fans had a strong demand for live performances, which led to the decision to add more shows.

Seeing that everyone is having a very heated discussion, Jiang Yuan is also planning to change the subsequent additional matches to larger venues like stadiums.

"Do you need to reply?" Zhang Qing wasn't surprised that Jiang Yuan made such a decision, but asked instead.

Now, the topic of fans discussing the number of seats in the performance venue is starting to overshadow the concept of the performance itself.

That's why Zhang Qing asked that question.

"I'll reply myself; that way everyone will feel more at ease," Jiang Yuan said after thinking for a moment.

After informing Zhang Qing, Jiang Yuan logged into the Shangyuan Universe again and replied to some fans' messages.

Several messages revealed that there would be stadium performances in the future.

Indeed, after Jiang Yuan responded in this way, many fans breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that at least they would be able to see her perform live once during this tour.

Then I became even more interested in the first few performances by the Gap Between.

Jiang Yuan is going to hold a performance in a small venue, and fans can easily tell that this is a special treat prepared for everyone.

Fans can tell which kind of matches are more profitable, and no one thinks that Jiang Yuan's popularity is insufficient to support the large stadium space.

After the initial anxiety about tickets, and with Jiang Yuan's reassurance, the discussion finally returned to analyzing the tour itself. Many fans immediately began scrutinizing the concept photo Jiang Yuan had just released, almost like a microscope.

From the background of the poster to Jiang Yuan's clothing, accessories, and even her makeup, the theme name "Between the Gaps" is interpreted from multiple angles.

As Jiang Yuan headed from the hotel to the music festival, she was also intently reading the fans' serious analyses.

Although most of the guesses are inaccurate, Jiang Yuan can occasionally gain some inspiration from the serious analyses of fans like Cong Fan.

"There's good news."

While Jiang Yuan was carefully browsing the fans' analysis posts, Zhang Qing's excited voice suddenly rang out in the car.

"What news?" Jiang Yuan looked up curiously.

After all, it had been a long time since Zhang Qing had reported news to him in such a surprised tone.

"We've been selected!" Zhang Qing looked down to check the message on her phone again before smiling and saying to Jiang Yuan.

"You were selected?" Jiang Yuan was slightly puzzled upon hearing this, feeling that she shouldn't have participated in any selections recently.

But then a thought quickly flashed through my mind, "You mean?"

“That’s right, that’s the one.” Zhang Qing nodded, confirming Jiang Yuan’s guess.

Just now, Jiang Yuan suddenly realized that she had indeed participated in a selection process recently, namely the selection of the World Cup theme song.

Having received no reply for a long time, Jiang Yuan assumed it was probably over and put it out of her mind, with little expectation.

Unexpectedly, sometimes the least anticipated things are the ones that get the most response.

"Is this confirmed?" Although Jiang Yuan was in a good mood, she still confirmed it with Zhang Qing again.

Zhang Qing then nodded affirmatively, "And it's not just one song."

"More than one? What do you mean?" Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment and asked, somewhat puzzled.

"They just wanted to see if we could give them another song."

"If we can't submit a new song, we'll just use this one as the theme song for the opening ceremony," Zhang Qing reported, outlining what she knew.

"What if you could give me another new song?" Jiang Yuan asked thoughtfully upon hearing this.

Right now, I'm searching through my mental music library, trying to think of any suitable songs.

"If you submit a new song and it passes the review, both songs will be used, and you will be invited to perform at both the opening and closing ceremonies," Zhang Qing said excitedly.

Zhang Qing was a singer who participated in both the opening and closing ceremonies, and I had never heard of her before.

But if Jiang Yuan can actually produce a song, it seems quite possible that it can be achieved.

In Zhang Qing's opinion, there is a high probability that Jiang Yuan will be able to produce such a song.

"Then we really should give it a try." A glint flashed in Jiang Yuan's eyes, and she became determined to seize this opportunity that had suddenly come her way.

The main reason was that while listening to Zhang Qing's story, a song suddenly flashed through Jiang Yuan's mind, and she felt that it was a very suitable piece.

"Should I schedule a time with Deng Ge? I guess we'll need to spend some time working on a demo first," Zhang Qing asked Jiang Yuan for her opinion.

“Okay, he’s here too.”

"Okay, let's rent a recording studio. I'll call the band over to get things set up first." Jiang Yuan quickly made the arrangements after a brief consideration.

“Okay.” Zhang Qing nodded and immediately began to get busy in the vehicle.

After all, this is one of the few performances that can further enhance Jiang Yuan's popularity and status.

Moreover, there is a high probability that there will still be two opportunities for performances that could break into the mainstream, so Zhang Qing cannot afford to be careless.

Upon hearing this good news on her way to the music festival, Jiang Yuan maintained a good mood throughout the makeup and styling process.

Apart from the core members, no one else in the team knew about this news, so when they noticed that Jiang Yuan was in a good mood, they were all a little confused and asked her for details.

In response, Jiang Yuan simply replied that she had thought of something happy.

What Jiang Yuan didn't expect was that, before the Day 2 music festival performance officially started, she also received another piece of good news from He Jing.

For a moment, it felt like a series of good news were coming one after another.

The good news He Jing reported was related to the post-production of the film "Wandering Blue Star".

"Is it really almost finished?" Jiang Yuan asked with some surprise after hearing what He Jing said.

While I was pleasantly surprised, I also found it hard to believe.

In Jiang Yuan's view, "The Wandering Earth" was probably the most difficult film they worked on in the later stages of their collaboration.

Originally, Jiang Yuan had prepared for the possibility that the later stages of the project might not be completed within the year, as she had anticipated.

I never expected to receive such wonderful news from He Jing after only a short period of inactivity.

"The final cut is basically done. Although there are still some key parts that need to be processed, it is indeed almost finished."

When He Jing told Jiang Yuan about this news, he couldn't help but feel excited.

Although it's still just a step away from being released, He Jing vaguely felt that he could already see the scene when the movie was released.

This is also the first time that He Jing has ever wanted to see a movie on the big screen.

Until the music festival officially started, Jiang Yuan was still discussing issues related to "Wandering Blue Star" with He Jing.

From the film's promotion and release date announcement to its actual release, there are indeed many aspects that need to be discussed.

The two got so engrossed in their discussion that they lost track of time. It wasn't until a staff member came over to remind them that He Jing realized he was the opening act for the music festival.

Only then did he hurriedly turn around and leave, beginning preparations for his performance at the music festival.

Jiang Yuan had just had a moment of free time when Li Xiaoyue immediately called her over.

Regarding Day 2 of Infinite Notes, the team made some new improvements after reviewing feedback from the previous day's audience.

Li Xiaoyue approached Jiang Yuan hoping she could review the improvements and see if there were any issues.

Just as Jiang Yuan and Li Xiaoyue were discussing, Day 2 of the music festival officially began.
