Chapter 165 Japan's Top-Ranking Concert
In the video, a light and melodious voice rang out. It was an extremely familiar voice; it belonged to his girlfriend, Xia Youyou.
"Unbelievable! Learn from your girlfriend. As a fan of Tianyi, how could you not know that Tianyi held a concert in Japan?" Liu Wei chuckled and joked.
"Quick, let's see what they said." Zhang San and Manager Zhou didn't have time to mock Jue Lun; they eagerly clicked on the video to watch it.
Jue Lun was no longer paying attention to the group chat; his attention had already been drawn to Xia Youyou's voice.
“In an era before smartphones even existed, Tianyi held a concert in Japan in his third year after his debut.”
"Some say that Tianyi's debut year is legendary. The first year was a stunning start at the end of the year, the second year was a sweep across Asia, and the third year was a world tour concert."
"Let me clarify here, he was not wrong."
"Tianyi has not held many concerts. He has held six concerts in China and only two concerts abroad."
"One of them was in Japan."
Some concerts can be found online, but others are difficult to find online.
The reason for this is that information was too limited in the early stages of the internet age.
Especially later, with the development of the Internet, China launched three rounds of Internet cleanup campaigns, which not only cracked down on some websites, but also erased a lot of information.
This has led to a situation where much information on the internet seems out of touch with the times to people from the past. Unless you experienced it firsthand, who would believe that there was a person like Zhou Tianyi in the Chinese music scene?
After Xia Youyou finished speaking, she placed the evidence she had painstakingly collected below. It was an old newspaper, which clearly stated the sensation that Zhou Tianyi's concert in Japan had caused.
"A concert exclusively for the elite!"
This was the newspaper's evaluation of Zhou Tianyi, to which Xia Youyou quickly offered an explanation.
"Because back then, those who could attend concerts were not ordinary people."
“Unlike China, Japan only allows elites to enjoy large-scale events like concerts.”
"Although ordinary people are allowed to attend concerts, they simply don't have the opportunity to do so due to their limited resources and economic conditions."
"Therefore, this concert held in Japan was jokingly referred to by the Japanese media at the time as an elite concert."
Elite Concert?
My goodness, you can even feel superior from listening to a concert?
As expected of Japan!
I was utterly astonished, but then I realized that Japan was going through an economic downturn at the time, so I let it go.
"Despite being called that, never underestimate the impact of this concert."
"The Japanese media at the time called it the most magnificent concert, and the fans who attended came from all walks of life in the elite class."
"There was even a saying circulating among the elite at the time: 'What kind of elites are those who don't attend Zhou Tianyi's concerts!'"
"It is conceivable how popular Tianyi's concert was, given the high regard it received from the elite class; it became known to almost everyone."
This is similar to the herd mentality, except that the leaders of this herd mentality are not ordinary people, but the elite class.
In those days, the elite class was not only a trendsetter but also a source of authority.
Zhou Tianyi was so highly regarded by them that his influence spread to everyone, and even ordinary people had heard of him.
"They all have 100,000 listeners, but each of them shines brightly in their respective fields."
"In this concert, you will see even the most dignified and elegant elites screaming hysterically."
"At this concert, you will see the Japanese singers' frenzy of seeing him as an idol."
"In this concert, you will see that even Mandarin can conquer the Japanese audience!"
A few words and a few pictures were enough to stir up the emotions of netizens.
The picture shows a scene of utter madness in Japan, where people are holding up glow sticks, shouting at the top of their lungs, their faces flushed.
"Some people say that Hua Chenfeng's concert special effects are top-notch and full of visual enjoyment."
"But what I really want to say is that real singers never care about special effects."
"Special effects are not the key to a concert; at most, they can only serve as icing on the cake."
"Moreover, compared to Tianyi's concert in Japan, Huachenfeng's concert special effects are about five cents."
"I have to admire Liu Wei and others. They said long ago that Tianyi's songs are full of foresight. He always uses a level that is hard for ordinary people to imagine to make the songs so that ordinary people can appreciate them."
"Concerts were no exception. Who would have thought that Tianyi had already started using special effects in their concerts back then?"
"And they play it even better than what's shown in movies and TV shows now, more dazzling, and more glamorous."
"At the concert, hundreds of beams of light shot into the sky, directly shocking countless fans and bringing them an ultimate visual feast."
"The atmosphere at the scene was always high. Fans cheered for Tianyi in their own unique language, and their shouts could be heard from miles away."
This is a million-dollar special effect produced by a Japanese company. Zhou Tianyi is in the pillar of light, holding up the pillar with both hands, like a living being, which is very shocking.
Although the image isn't exceptionally clear, the impact it has is beyond words.
Concerts are something that words alone cannot adequately describe; only by truly experiencing them can one feel their indescribable awe.
However, from Xia Youyou's easy-to-understand description, Jue Lun seemed to see the terror that Tianyi had brought to Japan when he held this concert back then.
Seeing this, Jue Lun thought Xia Youyou had said everything she needed to say, but to her surprise, the content didn't end when she scrolled down.
“Holding a concert abroad is really not that impressive. Many Chinese singers have held concerts abroad.”
"But to achieve what Tianyi has done, there are no more than three people in the history of the music industry."
“You always say that your brother dominates many charts and ranks high when he releases a new song, but little do you know that after this concert, Tianyi started his reign of dominance.”
"The chart-topping mode can no longer stop Tianyi's pace. The songs he sang at the concert have already begun to dominate the Japanese market before the concert has even ended."
"Dominating the rankings is nothing more than dominating the list, but dominating a country is dominating a nation!"
"At that time, the entire nation of Japan, from elites to commoners, both online and offline, was almost completely dominated by the songs sung by Tianyi."
"Back then, he was an incredibly popular star, a Chinese singer whose popularity was indescribable, so popular that he became a social phenomenon, sweeping through the streets and alleys."
"There was even a phenomenon of human-to-human transmission in Japan, and it was a foreign singer who was more popular than the Japanese superstars!"
"With the songs from just one concert, he completely conquered the Japanese music scene, which was once considered the pinnacle of the Chinese music world..."
"To become the one and only king at the turn of the century!"
