Film and Television Variety Show: The Jade Girl's Love Affair

The two collaborated on stage, with Tang Yuxian playing the accompaniment.

Tang Yu put down her instrument and picked up the microphone to start singing only after JJ Lin finished singing.

After the song was finished, the fans in the audience screamed.

"I'm very grateful that JJ came to my concert today. After all, people who get close to me are likely to be criticized. Let's welcome him again, shall we?"

A round of enthusiastic applause erupted from the audience, and JJ Lin smiled and began to speak.

“Jade is so talented, I’m so glad to be here at this concert today and to be able to collaborate with such an outstanding person.”

Applause and screams erupted once again, and Tang Yu spoke with a smile.

"Let's bid farewell to JJ Lin. Did you think I was going to say that? No, please welcome JJ to continue singing for everyone. I'll be back soon!"

After saying this, JJ Lin sang his own song solo, while Tang Yu quickly went to change her clothes and get her makeup done.

The second song they sang together was "Drunken Red Cliff". After JJ Lin finished singing "Always Online", Tang Yu changed into a white ink-wash style sleeveless cheongsam and came out carrying an erhu.

The pearl button design has a classic charm, and the white fabric is decorated with ink-wash style bamboo patterns and landscape paintings.

With her hair styled in an updo and adorned with a white jade hairpin, she looked fresh and gentle, exuding a classical and aloof charm.

Fans screamed when they saw the look. Tang Yu glanced at JJ Lin, and then the two nodded to signal that they would start working together.

The erhu melody created a poignant atmosphere, and combined with the song's lyrics, the entire audience listened in silence.

After this concert, Tang Yu held three more concerts in Taipei.

Then, Tang Yu immediately rushed to Los Angeles to hold her next concert.

After the tour ends in the first half of the year, I'll have to go filming in the second half.

However, Tang Yu did not expect that after uploading videos of several songs from her Taipei concert to YouTube, the fans would react so strongly that they asked her to sing several songs from her Chinese album in Los Angeles.

As a result, fans also strongly requested that Chinese folk music be performed at the concert.

Chapter 15 Tang Yuwanwan 15

During her Los Angeles concert, Tang Yu added a surprise segment in addition to preparing a performance of Chinese musical instruments because fans were interested in Chinese songs.

Tang Yu opened the show by performing "Ambush from Ten Sides" on the pipa before starting to sing.

The performance continued with a mix of Chinese and English songs. During the intermission, the staff on stage quickly set up the performance equipment, and behind-the-scenes footage of the concert preparations was played on the big screen.

Tang Yu did not invite any guest performers, mainly because she did not have many friends in the United States.

Actually, she knows more British actors and singers. She mainly works in the United States and has not settled here.

Therefore, she doesn't have much of a relationship with many American actors and singers; they only chat with each other when attending parties.

Furthermore, the way people in the US maintain relationships is by attending parties, so Tang Yu's relationships with these people are even less deep.

After all, you can find out what kind of people they are in private by asking around.

Many circles require a pledge of loyalty.

Therefore, companies can use public relations to try and win awards that are purely based on sales volume.

Tang Yu stopped striving for awards that relied heavily on networking.

Joining the circle is not a good thing.

After the intermission, the drums started, and then the lights shone on the center of the stage.

Tang Yu, dressed in a long dress with flowing water sleeves, performed a water sleeve drum dance.

The white and red striped long dress with flowing sleeves looks like a flower blooming when it dances. In addition, when Tang Yu jumps, she can strike the drums placed around her with each movement of her flowing sleeves.

The entire dance scene resembled a graceful fairy dancing in a fairyland of drums and music.

Every flutter of the water sleeves, every touch with the drumhead, seemed to carry a mysterious rhythm, captivating all who beheld it.

As the pace quickened, Tang Yu's movements became increasingly light and agile.

The drumbeats and the flowing sleeves moved in perfect harmony, creating a distinct rhythm that was both lively and dynamic. The audience was captivated by the wonderful performance, their faces beaming with amazement and delight.

After the concert, Tang Yu's team naturally edited the dance and uploaded it to YouTube.

This was the golden age of internet development, and video websites experienced a rapid increase in users in the past year or two, allowing ordinary people to upload videos and share their lives.

Many talented individuals have showcased their abilities on the internet platform, becoming online celebrities.

Therefore, Tang Yu has hired professionals to handle online platform promotion in the past two years, and pays great attention to promoting his works on online platforms.

Foreigners really have limited experience; they've never seen such amazing dance before, and they've only ever had a moderate level of exposure to it since childhood.

So after the concert ended, the dance video received over ten million views within three days.

By the end of the month, the number of clicks had exceeded 100 million.

Other fans who bought tickets requested to see this dance at future concerts, so Tang Yu made it a regular feature of the concert.

As for the uploaded videos of pipa and guzheng performances, they also received a huge number of views, and many foreign fans have become interested in Chinese musical instruments.

"We've already built up a following and a fan base, so let's make the new album showcase more of the characteristics of Chinese culture."

Sometimes, incorporating Western elements can make you lose your unique character. To achieve lasting success, you need a distinctive style. I think Westerners are quite interested in Chinese culture, so the new album could try that approach.

Tang Yu has already finished writing the songs for her new album.

However, due to the success of this concert tour, she decided to adjust the content of the music video to showcase Chinese musical instruments, costumes, and culture.

Her team didn't support her decision before, because she had just released an album.

If you start by promoting Chinese culture, who will be interested in you?

So back then, all the songs were in English, and the arrangements were based on current popular trends.

But now she has accumulated a huge fan base, and her fans and the media are curious and pay attention to everything she does.

Therefore, Tang Yu had a new idea: it was time to define his own unique characteristics.

"We can't take too many risks. We'll just try this approach with two or three songs. If it's successful, we'll go down this route for the next album."

Susan has a slightly conservative personality, and Tang Yu didn't object; indeed, they couldn't take too big a step.

However, she has a feeling that taking a differentiated competitive approach is the way to attract fans in the future.

After all, even fans sometimes like something new.

After touring several cities in the United States, Tang Yu went on to hold concerts in Canada, then returned to London, and then went to Singapore, Shanghai and other places.

When Tang Yu was in Singapore and Shanghai, she once again invited JJ Lin to be a guest.

It wasn't until the end of June that Tang Yu started her final concert of the year, this time in Sydney.

There are many Chinese people in Australia, so we prepared a little more Chinese songs this time.

Originally, there were no plans to invite guests, but when JJ Lin and Tang Yu were chatting, they mentioned that Jay Chou would also be holding a concert in Sydney in early July.

Finally, JJ Lin came to Sydney to act as an intermediary and introduced everyone.

JJ said, "When you had to choose between Wang Leehom, me, and him, who you liked the most, you chose him. Why?"

Chapter 16 Tang Yuwanwan 16

After the two sat down to eat, the first question they asked was a smile. Tang Yu glanced at JJ Lin and then turned to speak.

"Because I did a calculation of my Five Elements and Eight Trigrams at the time, I found that the name JJ Lin was quite compatible with my fortune that month, so I quickly chose him."

When Tang Yu said this, JJ Lin looked blank and didn't quite understand, while Jay Chou burst out laughing.

"You can also calculate the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams?"

"Actually, I can also do tarot readings, and I've also done some research on astrology. Do you guys want to try it out?"

Tang Yu's tendency to spout nonsense made everyone present laugh.

JJ Lin even asked seriously what the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams meant.

After Tang Yu explained, Jay Chou and JJ Lin strongly urged her to express her calculation process and see how far she could go with her fabrications.

Could such a thing stump Tang Yu? Of course not.

So Tang Yu quickly started making things up from the perspective of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, from metal, wood, water, fire, and earth to the sixty-four hexagrams. Tang Yu's whole process of making things up sounded completely incomprehensible.

Jay Chou and JJ Lin went from watching the joke to looking completely bewildered. What on earth was she talking about?

"You really can tell fortunes?"

When Jay Chou asked that question, JJ Lin, who was standing next to him, also spoke up.

"Your Chinese and English are so good that I can't understand you anymore."

"Of course I can tell fortunes. I can even calculate the release date of my album, my debut date, and the date of filming my music video in advance. Otherwise, how do you think I became famous?"

"And I just divined something: if you two don't pick up your chopsticks and start eating, I'll definitely end up in the hospital tonight."

Upon hearing this, both of them looked surprised and asked at the same time.

"why?"

"Because if I don't eat, I'll get hungry, and then my stomach might hurt. If my stomach hurts, won't I go to the hospital? Are you guys going to eat or not?"

As soon as he said that, the other staff members burst into laughter. Jay Chou and JJ Lin also realized what he meant and quickly joined in the laughter.

Now they finally understood that the person in front of them had been talking nonsense all along.

So, we ate and chatted, talking about music creation and hobbies such as games, travel, and sports.

After dinner, the group quickly became acquainted and then sat down in the living room to chat.

Tang Yu and Jay Chou demonstrated how to play the guzheng, and then they performed a cello together, with JJ Lin clapping in the background.

“I told you two should know each other, so I made a special trip to Sydney.”

"That's actually a missed opportunity. After I left Taipei, the two of you debuted one after the other. But people who like music will always get to know each other."

When Tang Yu finished speaking, everyone laughed.
