An epidemic has caused people around the world to change their daily habits, and even entertainment has been lost. Just this past weekend, Hong Kong audiences can finally walk into the Red Pavilion again and experience the atmosphere of the live concert, and this is the first Red Pavilion concert in the nearly 20 years since the debut of "My Favorite Female Singer" Lin Erwen in 2020. The first Red Pavilion concert in 2021 did not have a heavenly queen-level pomp and circumstance, no gorgeous dresses, but just a beautiful voice and a heart-stirring sincerity.
<h1>From my favorite group to my favorite female singer</h1>
From 2002 to the group AT17 debut, although there are many groups debuting in the same period, they take a completely different route, there is no strong team behind the packaging, there is no singing and dancing, the main is a good voice and musical talent. Although the level of live performance has always been above the level, it is often hotly discussed because of its shape and body shape, and their music has not been able to break through. AT17 has experienced dismantling and compounding, whether it is Ellen or Erwen, they have grown a lot in music and outlook on life.
Along the way, step by step to establish their own audience, said that let Erwen successfully "enter the house" must be last year's talent show "All the People Make Stars 3" to become a mentor moment, the debut of the singer for many years not only let the audience hear her singing voice, but also directly let people understand her sincere, modest, funny side, which is more or less let her stand out from many female singers, the popular "My Favorite Female Singer" award.
Before winning the award, she had promised her supporters that if she won the award, she would hold a concert in the Red Pavilion, but even in such a difficult environment, she fulfilled her promise to a wide audience, and successfully used the special day of March 27 as the first concert of Lin Erwen's first Red Pavilion concert, "The Beginning of Faith Live", and everything was arranged.
<h1>Hug when you can</h1>
Rather than a concert, "The Beginning of Faith Live" may be more like a party, whether it is a new acquaintance or a supporter who has been following for many years, you can finally get together to witness this jewel that has been polished for many years shine. Perhaps because of this, Erwen also deliberately used a song "Reunion" as the beginning of the concert, bringing out the emphasis of cherishing the present, and at the same time expressing the feeling of losing the best partner when it is obvious that it is like another life after a few moments / only to admit that there is no you but the budget to get together again one day.
Like life, after the tears have flowed, it is inevitable to regain the mood, continue to move forward, after singing "Reunion", immediately remind the audience of this truth with a song "Amazing", and by the way, let everyone know that over the years, Lin Erwen is like walking onto the stage of today's Red Pavilion. This practice is also the arrangement of this concert throughout the entire song list, with sad and brisk songs switching each other, so that the audience's emotions are up and down. Another practice, which Is also Erwen's good at, is to add interesting interactive games to lyrical songs, such as when singing "Talented Girl", she actually gave the audience the instructions to "scream and clap" early, making the song easier to enter, and at the same time creating a perfect ending.
A beautiful voice is the most gorgeous place for Lin Erwen, so this time she only showed herself in two sets of tailor-made concert costumes as before, and each set has an emotional connection with her. She also uses a pair of comfortable flat shoes to tell the people who have been silently supporting her around, even if she has not said her name all night, the audience already knows who she is referring to, and after saying this "Next Stop Tianhou" music immediately sounds, all the emotions are self-evident.
"Even if one day there is a singing, who is going to sing again
He can't go to the scene, and he still seems to live in vain" - "The Next Stop Tianhou"
<h1>Simple stage, sing the most moving songs</h1>
Although there is no gorgeous stage, but "The Beginning of Faith Live" also presents the audience with the best visual effects and stage lighting effects, each act of animation has a lot of related connections and hints, so that the audience in addition to the ear, can also feel the song through the vision; as for the stage lighting is also more attentive than the previous concert, also take the opening "Reunion" as an example, the spotlight hits the empty seat used as an interval in the field, and then once again focuses on the Erwen on the stage. Fortunately, everyone can have a time to get together at a safe distance, which also represents the people who were not present.
Although one of the creative directors, Yu Yiyao, said that it was more than everyone's kindness that would forgive "The Beginning of Faith Live" for handing over such a limited two and a half hours in the case of lack of time and insufficient ability, and he used "parents to watch children's graffiti as encouragement and tolerance" as a metaphor for the audience, but in fact, this is the most suitable for Lin Erwen's personality of the concert, no need to sing and dance, nor to dress up on a gorgeous stage, only relying on her clear and powerful voice. Coupled with the sincere, touching and humorous dialogue, it was enough to stir up the atmosphere of the audience, and the audience truly appreciated her and the talent of the whole team.
<h1>Leave it to the new girl to sing</h1>
Perhaps because Lin Erwen is also a person who was promoted by her predecessors, everyone can see her insistence on music in every concert, but also look at her care for her juniors. Just like her last concert as AT17 in 2017, she said "to the new girl to sing", this time in addition to giving her a song "True Color" to the participants in the talent show "Star-Making 3", she also directly brought two juniors, Jiang Tao and Ben, to the stage. Whether it is a performer, musician, accompanist, dancer, front-of-stage and behind-the-scenes staff, Lin Erwen is a person who is very willing to share the stage with them and let everyone enjoy the glowing moment together.
<h1>Good is like water</h1>
I believe that in the whole "The Beginning of Faith Live", one of the most impressive moments for the audience must be when Erwen shares her faith with the audience. She chose to share her Taoist beliefs on this big stage and bring her fellow disciples to the stage, which was indeed a very bold move. However, she is more focused on advocating not her religion, but a belief and values, teaching us that everything stems from kindness, and connecting with the concert title "The Beginning of Faith".
<h1>The Best Is Yet To Come</h1>
After thousands of sails, with his innate beautiful singing, Lin Erwen can finally step onto the stage of the Red Pavilion, which is a thing that makes people feel happy when they look at it, and at the same time can get strength from it. A pair of flat shoes can already perfectly control the four-sided platform, which is definitely the accumulation of her years of hard work, so that we believe that the best in this era has not yet come, and it is also one of the reasons why she left a song "The Best Is Yet To Come" blank at her concert and let the audience sing by herself.
