492: Chapter 492 Special People

Time entered October.

The editing of "la la land" went very smoothly, so Lin Chuyan didn't need to run to the editing room as often, basically only going once a day.

It was enough to check the progress from the previous day with the editor and solve any problems in time.

The most important thing was still rehearsing songs with the band; after all, the concert was right around the corner.

For this, Lin Chuyan even added all his basic attribute points to "Singing Ability," bumping it up to 648 points in one go.

All for the sake of creating a perfect concert!

Regarding special skills, "Piano" had already been upgraded while filming "la la land."

For others, he could put a few points into "Violin" and "Drums"—they didn't need much, just enough to show off a little when the time came.

But "Guitar" had to be heavily invested in—the electric Guitar solo at the end of "boundless oceans, vast skies" was too top-tier.

He had to play it himself; that way, it could be considered a true tribute.

Today's rehearsal was mainly for this electric Guitar solo—it wasn't in the studio version, but it had to be added for the concert version.

After all, many people even felt that the version with this electric Guitar solo was the real "boundless oceans, vast skies."

The system actually didn't give him the sheet music for this part.

If he hadn't been so familiar with this outro, it would have been quite troublesome.

As for the effect...

Zheng Hai was definitely hyped up: "Xiao Yan, this part is too good! Hey! If you had put this in the studio version, the reviews for 'boundless oceans, vast skies' might have been even higher—"

Lin Chuyan quickly interrupted him: "Brother, this has already been hailed by Wawa as the song of the era. Higher? Where else do you want it to go? Stay calm..."

"Fine..." Zheng Hai stopped thinking about it.

"Anyway, there will be videos of the concert. Sigh, classic, too classic. By the way, it's a bit excessive that you're only singing it in Guangdong Province, right? Everyone likes this song, don't they?"

"That's true..."

Actually, the main thing was that Lin Chuyan never expected this song to become popular so quickly.

A week had passed, and now, basically no matter which province you were in, people could belt out a few lines.

"If you ask me, stop overthinking it. This is the last song of the concert; it usually needs to have 'important significance.' It's not only the climax of the whole performance but also the peak of emotional resonance with the audience. It needs to leave a deep impression. I've gone through all your songs, and honestly, 'boundless oceans, vast skies' is the most suitable."

Lin Chuyan had nothing to say.

Zheng Hai continued to persuade him: "Don't look at how it's only been released for a few days, it's popular enough now. I even think that by the time you hold your concert, it will be more popular than all your other songs! In other words, it has the qualifications for a stadium-wide singalong and can interact with the crowd. Also, the last song is best if it can achieve 'emotional sublimation.' Is there anything more suitable than 'boundless oceans, vast skies'? At the very end, you finish with this electric Guitar solo... Isn't that a guaranteed iconic scene? Is there any better ending than this?"

"I'll listen to you!" Lin Chuyan followed the advice readily.

"Actually, I can make it even more perfect, even more of an iconic scene."

"Huh?"

Zheng Hai chuckled: "How about you take off your top when you sing this? You're only wearing a vest anyway. That's called sacrificing for art."

Lin Chuyan: "..."

After the rehearsal, he casually opened the treasure chest for September.

The release of "boundless oceans, vast skies" was at the end of September, so the rewards for this wave of traffic wouldn't be received until October.

There was only one treasure chest for the whole of September, which was the traffic value he got from clashing with a bunch of Los Angeles reporters...

Opened the chest directly.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the complete Songwriting for the work "special person"]

Hmm, a song by Khalil Fong.

"We are each other's, special person."

"Desperate, inseparable, not an ordinary person's dedication."

"If there is only one day, to love someone."

"Let every moment of time rewind, there are infinite possibilities in life."

"You are the special person I am meant to meet."

Thank you, Khalil Fong.

Lin Chuyan thought silently.

This song... why not use it as the opening song for this Asian tour?

He could practice it well these days; it should be in time.

The concert date was October 14th, so Lin Chuyan still had time to do other things.

During this period, many variety shows still came looking for him, but one very interesting point was that the industry's perception of him had long since changed.

Xia Zhi was reading them out to him.

"Brother, there's a music variety show at the end of the year that wants to invite you to be a judge."

"...No."

"There's also something called 'Actors Get Ready,' they want to invite you to be a mentor."

"No." Lin Chuyan couldn't help but add, "Besides, a judge and mentor this young looks very strange."

"What's wrong with that?" Although Wu Yue also knew that these actor variety shows weren't worth going on and were all just for attention, he still didn't agree with Lin Chuyan's point of view. "The capable are teachers! Now, no one will question your strength."

"Is Director Deng Yu going? If Director Deng Yu goes, I'll go."

"...Don't say that. If you had this requirement, the production team would definitely be willing to fulfill it, no matter how much money it costs! What a spectacle that would be! But I guess Director Deng Yu definitely doesn't want to see you."

"Hahahaha! Just kidding." Lin Chuyan stroked his chin. "Hey, I thought about it. Actually, the kind of guest appearances suit me better. The one like Brother Yuan's 'happy re-departure' before was pretty good. I could even go and promote my 'la la land.' Unfortunately, they aren't recording it anymore."

Wu Yue nodded: "Okay, then I'll keep an eye out for you."

Xia Zhi asked from the side: "Brother, how do you plan to spend your birthday with the boss's wife this year? So I can prepare."

"Emmm... I've already agreed with her to spend it together at midnight every year, so you don't need to worry about it."

Xia Zhi: "...Okay, but isn't that day the same day as the concert?"

"Hehehe, I did it on purpose. The song 'twenty-two' is already prepared. I'll sing it to her at the Shanghai Stadium on the 22nd, which is her birthday."

Yanzi wouldn't just pay attention to details in "la la land."

Wu Yue slapped his head: "It's over, your sister-in-law is going to make me learn from you again."

"No, I've been showing affection for two years already. Isn't sister-in-law used to it yet?"

Wu Yue nodded: "I think so too. Besides, someone like me who gives lots of money... doesn't that also seem very loving?"

"Sounds like the effect is average."

"The effect is actually very good. My mother-in-law is very satisfied with me now."

Alright, the target of the strategy was a bit off, but it's not a big problem.

The few of them got back to business.

There were still ten days until the concert, but before that, he had to go on the CCTV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala with Ruan Xingyu.

The director of the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala wasn't Director Yu, but Director Yu still called him to ask on behalf of a friend.

Neither Lin Chuyan nor Ruan Xingyu hesitated—this was Director Yu, the Director Yu who came up with the "get married at the Spring Festival Gala" idea for them!

Definitely no problem!

There was another reason, which was that he happened to have a hidden song "blooming flowers and full moon night" that hadn't been released yet. It would be just right to use it this time, wouldn't it?

October 5th, the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, the artist list was released.

Netizens who were originally uninterested in the gala suddenly got energetic...

Wait, aren't you going to hold a concert? How do you still have time to come to this Mid-Autumn Festival Gala to play? Also, "blooming flowers and full moon night"? What is that?

[New song! Another new song!]

[A long-lost duet, ahhh!]

[Could it be a song from "a thousand words"?]

Hmm, Lin Chuyan specifically replied to this comment.

[No, this is a song from the next-next album "marry me today."]

Netizens: ???

Huh? The next-next album?

Huh? "marry me today" what?
