Chapter 897 Return Preview
The box office on the first day of pre-sale, with the added bonus of variety shows, achieved a slight lead over other movies.
In He Jing's words, one step faster and every step faster.
The reason why my emotions fluctuate so much is because I feel that I have established some advantages in advance.
Whether it is for subsequent promotion or pre-sale, it will have a good foundation.
When Jiang Yuan returned home that night, he fell asleep immediately. Because he had no schedule for the next day, he did not wake up until noon.
The time until the Spring Festival is Jiang Yuan's vacation. Although the vacation is not long, only a few days, Jiang Yuan spends these days very fulfillingly.
Occasionally when I go to the Xingyuan Building, I will also walk around the streets, which also results in a lot of posts about encounters before the Spring Festival.
“I didn’t expect that we would have to record two days before the Spring Festival.”
In the company's recording studio, Deng Ge said to Jiang Yuan with some surprise.
After the album meeting ended a few days ago, Deng Ge originally thought that Jiang Yuan would need a relatively long period of time to organize before he could start any recording-related work.
"According to my original expectation, I thought it would take until after the New Year at the earliest." Deng Ge said while debugging the equipment.
But the actual situation is that Jiang Yuan sent over a demo two days ago, and had even completed the arrangement work himself.
I came to the company today to prepare to complete the recording of the vocal track.
"I went back and sorted it out, and then found this one that I thought was quite suitable."
"It just so happens that we can record it now, and at the same time use it as a warm-up for the album." Jiang Yuan nodded.
During the days of rest at home, Jiang Yuan thought about the themes discussed in the previous album meeting every day, and also made some plans.
This single that I suddenly found is one of them.
“We should be shooting a MV for the pre-release song, right?” Deng Ge asked Jiang Yuan.
"There should be." Jiang Yuan thought for a while and said uncertainly.
After all, it doesn’t seem impossible to shoot, it just requires more money.
“It must be filmed!” Deng Ge said solemnly, and then sighed, “In fact, I think it’s a pity that you didn’t film MVs for many of your singles.”
Deng Ge thought back to the singles released by Jiang Yuan in the past few months and felt that they all deserved more serious treatment.
Jiang Yuan did not comment on Deng Ge's statement.
"If there is time and sufficient funds, it is not impossible to shoot music videos."
"It's just that I really can't handle it this time." Jiang Yuan also shook his head with a wry smile.
Even if you are full of enthusiasm, you may not have enough time.
"That's right." Deng Ge nodded in understanding.
This is because Jiang Yuan has relatively favorable production conditions. If it were someone else, the production costs of the MV alone would be enough to break the bank.
Making an album is a very expensive thing.
"We have to hurry up and record in the next two days, otherwise we may not be able to finish it before the New Year." Jiang Yuan said, looking at the time.
Today, Jiang Yuan's recording method has undergone some changes.
In the past, Jiang Yuan often tried to complete the recording without recording too many times.
But in the production of this album, everyone is pursuing more sophisticated production.
So Jiang Yuan also sorted out the recording part and finally decided to divide it into two days.
One day is dedicated to recording the main melody of the music, and another day is dedicated to recording the harmony, so that the daily tasks will not be too heavy.
This recording method was also recognized by Deng Ge, or it can be said that it is more in line with Deng Ge's production habits.
For Deng Ge, the change in recording methods began when he met Jiang Yuan.
From the beginning when Jiang Yuan's singing skills were not very mature, to later when he gradually improved and evolved into what he is now.
Originally, Deng Ge wanted to sigh about the time, but after thinking about it for a while, he realized that not much time had passed.
So the words of regret came to my lips, with a hint of sarcasm, "For some singers with poor singing skills, I really don't know where their time goes."
"Emmmmm" Hearing Deng Ge say this, Jiang Yuan also touched his nose.
The guilty feeling that had just arisen was quickly suppressed by Jiang Yuan with peace of mind.
His singing skills have improved rapidly. Although this is due to some system buffs, Jiang Yuan has also made great efforts to study hard. His vocal lessons are the best proof of this.
Moreover, the singing skills that have been mastered and the singing quotient that has been accumulated through the memory of songs can also be felt in a real way.
Thinking about these things, Jiang Yuan also entered the recording studio and officially started the recording work for the day.
Perhaps it was because the review of his own singing skills just now boosted his confidence, or perhaps it was because Jiang Yuan came to the company in a relatively good condition on the day of recording.
All in all, the main melody recording went very smoothly.
After singing it for the first time, Deng Ge had already praised it several times outside.
Good recording conditions are obviously what recording engineers hope to encounter.
After all, if you can sing it perfectly in one take, no one would want to slowly polish it bit by bit in the recording studio.
Therefore, Jiang Yuan finished the recording within five takes that day.
The previous few re-singings were all due to some tiny pitch errors in the vocals.
This level of error would have been difficult to detect if Deng Ge had not been listening with full concentration.
In other words, this level has actually reached the formal recording standard, and it will be excellent after a little post-production.
Even under such stringent requirements, Jiang Yuan completed the recording work that day very quickly.
This made Jiang Yuan and Deng Ge feel somewhat confused, as if they were drawing their swords and looking around.
However, after some hesitation that day, he finally decided not to complete the harmony work on the same day, purely to comply with the recording method that had just been decided. The rest of the day was free time for Jiang Yuan.
After leaving the Xingyuan Building, Jiang Yuan dressed up in disguise and went to a cinema near the company, ready to watch a movie to kill some time.
It happened to be a weekday afternoon, and the cinema was very empty. Jiang Yuan was the only one in the entire theater, which was like having the theater all to himself.
After watching a music movie that he had noticed and wanted to watch, Jiang Yuan left the cinema in a very happy mood.
Although there are not many screenings of "Love Letter" left, Jiang Yuan can still see many related promotional posters and billboards in the cinema.
The next day, which was the day before New Year's Eve, Jiang Yuan went to the company at the same time yesterday to complete the recording of the harmony for the new single.
Although the condition was not as good as the day before, the recording was completed smoothly.
Because they would meet again soon after the New Year, Jiang Yuan unexpectedly received a red envelope from Deng Ge.
"Why did they suddenly give me a red envelope this year?" Jiang Yuan was a little surprised. After all, he hadn't received one in the past two years.
"Sometimes people still need to have more sense of ritual." Deng Ge said with a smile.
"And you're also going to do a movie roadshow together this year. I think the next time we meet will be after the New Year." Deng Ge continued, and when he looked up, he saw Jiang Yuan had already opened the red envelope and started counting.
It has been a long time since Jiang Yuan received such a physical red envelope, so he was in a good mood.
Moreover, the amount given by Deng Ge as a token of appreciation was not small, exceeding one thousand. For Jiang Yuan, who had just experienced a variety show tour with limited funds, it was a relatively large sum of money.
Jiang Yuan said goodbye to Deng Ge in a good mood and also updated his status on the same day.
Different from the photos that Jiang Yuan usually sends to fans, the latest set of photos includes fewer portraits and more casual photos taken in daily life.
To fans, it seems like a more everyday summary.
Among this group of photos, a portrait of Jiang Yuan also became a hot topic among fans.
The photo is in black and white, and it caused heated discussion because the background picture happened to be the recording photos that Jiang Yuan took in the company's recording studio in the past two days.
Such a photo mixed in with a crowd of daily photos was naturally understood by fans as Jiang Yuan giving away a spoiler.
In fact, this is true. Jiang Yuan has no intention of hiding the fact that he has started preparing for his next official album.
In other words, the production progress of this album has always been made public in the form of a monthly single plan.
Now it is just the warm-up stage for preparing to officially announce the start of the album production, and it is just in time to reveal the progress by updating daily photos.
Although there was no direct description of this photo, fans were able to compare Jiang Yuan's look in the photo with the encounter photos taken in recent days and judged that this was the latest recording studio photo.
As if it was a tacit understanding, Jiang Yuan did not respond to fans' speculations and only liked some of the speculations.
These are considered some of the daily interactions in the Yuan universe, but at this point in time, everyone is more concerned about the movies that will be released during the Spring Festival.
As of two days before its release, the pre-sale box office of "Detective Chinatown" has officially exceeded 100 million.
After achieving such results, the film’s share of theaters nationwide on the first day exceeded 20%.
Although it is not much compared to the previous releases with a screening rate of 40 to 50 percent, it is a screening that was snatched from the competition of eight films that are not unpopular.
If we only look at the pre-sale box office results, "Detective Chinatown 3" has already become the box office champion during the pre-sale period.
Such performance has made the movie highly anticipated in the near future. In addition, as it is a suspense film, the title of Omega also played a significant role in it.
And because this time it is the Spring Festival period, the movie did not take the approach of advance screening. For the audience, there is no more spoiler information about the entire movie except the trailer, which makes the movie shrouded in mystery.
The day before New Year’s Eve, Jiang Yuan also confirmed with He Jing the arrangements for activities during the Spring Festival.
Apart from the premiere on the first day, the rest of the roadshow schedule was not arranged so tightly, considering that everyone has to celebrate the Spring Festival.
Basically, the frequency is one city every three days, so during the entire Spring Festival, only five cities were officially announced in the first round of roadshows, which is not a lot.
This also further stimulated everyone's enthusiasm for buying tickets.
The Yuan Universe app also specially obtained a portion of tickets for fans to grab by answering questions.
Similar to previous concert periods, the release of roadshow tickets has become one of the popular activities that everyone is waiting for every day.
"The premiere will end this morning, and there will be a few roadshow events arranged in Shanghai." He Jing sent a message to Jiang Yuan, informing him of the schedule for the premiere day.
The premiere of the film was arranged in Shanghai, which was convenient for the crew members and also for inviting some guests to the premiere.
Jiang Yuan naturally had no objection to He Jing's arrangement.
After all, on the day of the premiere, the styling also needs to be carefully prepared. It would be a bit of a waste if you don’t go on a few more roadshows after the premiere.
After chatting about roadshow-related topics for a while, He Jing and Jiang Yuan began to turn their attention to celebrating the subsequent box office growth.
With pre-sales exceeding 100 million yuan and leading the Spring Festival box office, no one thinks that the box office of "Detective Chinatown 3" will be low, unless its reputation collapses completely.
But this is obviously unlikely to happen, so even some forecasting agencies that were not optimistic about the cooperation between Jiang Yuan and He Jing in the past have given the film a minimum box office figure of 10 billion.
Therefore, Jiang Yuan and He Jing were also prepared to prepare celebratory posters and copywriting for each major milestone when the box office broke through the 1 billion mark.
On this basis, He Jing also wanted to let Jiang Yuan see if there was any opportunity to give the audience some new surprises based on the box office, for example, when the box office exceeded 500 million.
Jiang Yuan was not too opposed to He Jing's proposal and agreed directly on the phone.
However, Jiang Yuan had no idea what kind of surprise to prepare, so he threw the question back to He Jing.
This way, He Jing can come up with more reliable surprises in the future, and then Jiang Yuan can put them into practice.
After chatting for more than half an hour, Jiang Yuan and He Jing also confirmed various contingency plans to deal with possible situations that may arise due to the box office growth in the first few days.
After hanging up the phone with He Jing, Jiang Yuan checked the time and logged into his multiple social media accounts, ready to forward the post.
As early as a day ago, Chi Ruiying had been sending messages to remind people that this day would be the day when the concept pilot film of The Princess's return series in the new year would be released, and asked Jiang Yuan to remember to help promote it.
Now that he has been reminded to this extent, it is unlikely that Jiang Yuan will forget.
The promotional copy was also prepared at the perfect time, and it was forwarded and promoted as soon as the preview of The Princess' return was released.
Jiang Yuan also attaches great importance to The Princess's latest comeback plan.
