At 9:30 pm domestic time, Jiang Yuan and Deng Ge closed the door of the recording studio together.
At this time, Xingyuan Entertainment was basically silent.
After spending some time, Jiang Yuan and Deng Ge completed the recording of multiple audio tracks of one song.
Basically, the post-production process is all it takes to complete the production of a song.
However, what was produced was not a single from the new album, but "HEAVEN" which was previously sung in the Peninsula War episode.
It became popular on the Internet without releasing the official sound source. Naturally, Jiang Yuan completed the recording of this song as soon as he returned to China.
"I'll fly to Cloud City with you in two days. I've already communicated with a recording studio there... I can record when you have a break in filming."
Walking in the corridor of the company, Deng Ge said.
"Okay." Jiang Yuan nodded and continued to check nearby night snack bars on his mobile phone. He was not surprised that Deng Ge wanted to set off with him to record.
After all, if I had to fly back to Shanghai specifically for recording, I would be in a hurry on my schedule.
After scrolling on her phone for a while, Jiang Yuan successfully found the late-night snack restaurant she wanted to go to from the food guide near Xingyuan Entertainment made by fans.
"By the way, has the title of the album been decided yet?" Deng Ge asked after sitting down in the private room of the night snack bar and ordering food.
"Speaking of this, we really need to hold another discussion meeting to confirm it." Before Jiang Yuan could answer, Zhang Qing took over.
Speaking of which, although the time difference between the three of them has not completely synchronized, their eating and resting schedules are somewhat in sync.
"But the concept of the album is basically clear." Jiang Yuan raised his head after replying to the post about making food guides.
After the production of previous albums, Jiang Yuan has become more confident about the album concept.
Different from the singles, the singles and the arrangement of the songs included in the album need to be connected under a relatively unified concept to tell a story together.
The album Jiang Yuan prepared this time contains a lot of songs, most of which are hit singles, and the genres are also diverse, so it is more difficult to create a specific concept.
"What concept?" Deng Ge asked with interest.
"Because the album's playlist style is relatively complicated, I originally wanted to use the concept of the four seasons to produce it." Jiang Yuan opened the bottle of Coke on the table.
"Four Seasons?" Deng Ge pondered for a moment, "It's actually quite good. I feel that the songs in the album are quite consistent with the concept. There are songs suitable for listening to all seasons of the year."
Jiang Yuan was showing off his coke beautifully, and Zhang Qing joined the conversation, "That's what I originally thought, but considering that it is divided according to the four seasons, the songs in each part are not evenly distributed."
"In this way, it would feel like applying a concept, and there are already many season-themed albums on the market, so in the end this concept was abandoned." Zhang Qing analyzed the reasons.
"Hiccup~ That's it!" Jiang Yuan burped a coke.
"Yes, so what was the final concept?" Deng Ge nodded and continued to ask curiously.
At this time, the waiter opened the door and started serving food, and Jiang Yuan and others temporarily stopped their discussion.
"Let's wait until tomorrow's planning meeting to explain." Zhang Qing ended the conversation, but Deng Ge felt a little uncomfortable because his appetite was aroused.
However, the stomach is more important in reality. Deng Ge temporarily forgot about this while showing off his rice.
As Zhang Qing told him before, it will be difficult for Jiang Yuan to have any holidays when he returns to China this time.
Even on the second day after returning to China, Jiang Yuan didn't get much news. In the morning, he was called by Zhang Qing's life-threatening serial calls and went to shoot the album-related visuals.
After the filming, he was invited back to Xingyuan to participate in the planning meeting for the new album.
"Tomorrow's schedule won't be so busy. After shooting the commercial, you can go home and rest directly." The nanny car stopped at the entrance of Xingyuan, and Zhang Qing comforted her with a few words.
Jiang Yuan got off the car and went to the coffee shop to pick up coffee as usual.
Perhaps because Jiang Yuan was there yesterday, there were more customers in the store than yesterday.
However, everyone also guessed that they have already come to the company, and they should not come consecutively the next day, so there are not too many people.
For Jiang Yuan, after the relatively routine encounter with fans ended, he sat directly in the conference room.
The entire album production team gathered together to discuss issues such as album design, concept and naming.
The concept that Deng Ge was curious about was also unveiled at this meeting.
"This time the concept of the album is actually partly derived from the physical design."
"One version of the lyrics book has the lyrics made into a roll of paper glue. The lyrics of each song use a different color scheme." Jiang Yuan began to explain while sitting at the main seat in the conference room.
Deng Ge nodded subconsciously as he listened and began to think divergently. He thought of imagery items such as rainbows and color palettes.
"After seeing this design, combined with the previously proposed four-season theme, I suddenly felt that these singles could be treated as independent colors."
"In other words, they are not songs suitable for the four seasons. These singles with diverse styles are more like taking into account various situations and atmospheres and different time scenes."
"I hope that everyone can find songs from the album that suit the mood to play at different times throughout the year."
Zhang Qing took Jiang Yuan's words, read the contents on the folder and explained further.
"The styles of singles are indeed quite diverse." Mr. Deng nodded subconsciously.
"This setting is quite good, it feels like one record but contains many records." Some people began to agree.
"It feels pretty good. What I'm doing this time is a very big album, so there's nothing wrong with having a bigger concept."
"That's right..."
There was a burst of approval in the conference room.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "So, if you don't have any more ideas."
"The concept of the album is based on the fact that everyone can always find a suitable song to play in thousands of moments in life - Life is determined."
Zhang Qing clapped her hands and concluded.
But at the end of the meeting, everyone still hadn’t come up with a suitable album title.
After all, it’s Jiang Yuan’s first album released in Europe and the United States, so everyone seemed very cautious in choosing the name.
I'm afraid that because I didn't choose the right name, the album will be scrapped.
Everyone mentioned several names in a row but couldn't come up with anything satisfactory. In the end, we had to end the meeting and let everyone go back and think about it carefully. It would not be too late to propose ideas and inspirations later.
"The promotion of the album will officially start this week. After all, quite a few singles have been released."
"The visual short film shot today will be updated and released as a concept piece this week."
After leaving the company, Zhang Qing explained the album promotion plan to Jiang Yuan in the car.
Jiang Yuan nodded, and then asked curiously, "Will the sound source of the new song be released together this week?"
"Well, it will be online when the show is broadcast."
Zhang Qing nodded, knowing that Jiang Yuan was asking about the new songs that would be played in the new episode of "World Songs".
"Before the full album is released, this song and "Counting Stars" will be released in advance."
"After all, the popularity of the program "World Songs" needs to be borrowed," Zhang Qing explained.
Jiang Yuan nodded to express his understanding, and then began to close his eyes and rest in the car.
The next day was still full of shooting schedules, and I shot a lot of advertising materials at once.
After two consecutive days of shooting commercials and photos, Jiang Yuan and Deng Ge set off for Yuncheng together.
Rushing to the filming set of "The Invisible Guest".
Jiang Yuan and others were away, and the filming of the movie was suspended for two weeks.
If everyone didn't have online meetings from time to time to discuss related plots, otherwise it would still be somewhat difficult to restart filming.
Even so, everyone got used to the restart of filming, and only after He Jing confirmed that there was no sense of tearing with the previous filming, the filming of the subsequent plot continued.
"The filming progress is much faster than expected, and it may be some time ahead of schedule."
After finishing the day's shooting, He Jing was in a good mood and shared the progress of the movie's shooting with Jiang Yuan.
First of all, on the first day of restarting filming, everyone got into the mood smoothly, which made He Jingda breathe a sigh of relief.
In addition, the reason why there is no rush after stopping filming for such a long time is that I integrated the content of the previous shooting and found that a considerable part of the shooting progress has been completed.
"Can the location shooting be completed this week?" Jiang Yuan couldn't help but be a little surprised after hearing the progress reported by He Jing.
The movie "The Invisible Guest" actually doesn't have too many scenes, so you don't need to move around in too many places.
Even so, Jiang Yuan still underestimated the shooting efficiency of having a complete script and everyone working together online for a long time.
"The main exterior scenes can be finished." He Jing replied with a smile.
"After this week is over, the main focus will be on filming the conversation in the hotel."
"As for some of the more fragmentary shots, we will have time to shoot them later. There is plenty of time." He Jing said and showed Jiang Yuan the newly arranged schedule.
Jiang Yuan took a look and found that according to He Jing's schedule, the remaining filming would be officially completed in less than a month.
In addition to being surprised, Jiang Yuan himself was a little worried about the quality of shooting at this speed.
But then I thought about myself as the lead actor and an eyewitness of the filming. How was the quality? I could check it immediately after the performance.
Not to mention that He Jing's standards have always been very high.
"This is indeed good news." Jiang Yuan summed it up and smiled.
He Jing's efficiency has been improved, and Jiang Yuan has freed up some free time in his original schedule.
Not to mention using the extra time, it would be great to just waste it and give yourself a vacation.
This also reminded Jiang Yuan of his upcoming itinerary, which made him feel a little less miserable.
"But you're going to participate in the Golden Dagger Award in two weeks, right?" He Jing put away his phone and raised his eyebrows at Jiang Yuan as if he had thought of something.
"That's right. I will film a show to record it when the time comes..."
As someone who had known about his identity for a long time, Jiang Yuan also shared with He Jing the process of losing his horse.
"In this case, can the filming start with our crew and promote the movie by the way?"
"And judging from the current shooting progress, we can cut out more materials and publicize it in advance to match the popularity of your award."
"After all, it may not take too much time from post-production to release. It would be best if it can be done in the first half of next year." He Jing also began to think about it.
Promoting the new movie in conjunction with the cancellation of the Golden Dagger Award was a plan discussed between Jiang Yuan and He Jing.
Now it is indeed the time to implement it, and this may be the most important marketing before the movie is released.
It’s not even limited to the domestic entertainment circle.
"Okay, I have to start from the filming location anyway, so that the program can record the whole process." Jiang Yuan nodded and agreed.
"Very good..." He Jing waved his arms and couldn't help but have some reverie.
I feel that my transformational work this time may even become my new business card in the international film industry.
During the next few days of filming, He Jing seemed very motivated.
The entire crew also moved at high speed under the leadership of director He Jing.
It was the first time to participate in the filming atmosphere of Jiang Yuan and He Jing. Whether it was the producer or other actors, they all had an unprecedented feeling of immersion.
While the filming progress of "The Invisible Guest" was advancing at a high speed, Jiang Yuan also took advantage of the break in filming to complete the recording of one of the tracks for the new album with Deng Ge at the recording studio in Yuncheng.
At the same time, during the filming period and on the eve of the new feature film of "World Song" being released, Jiang Yuan's accounts and studios on major platforms also officially released the first concept video of the new album.
Bringing topics related to the new album, the number of views of the short video began to soar as soon as it was released online.
While fans have high expectations, they also looked for relevant Easter eggs in the film and began to analyze and speculate.
The release of this short film has once again added a lot of popularity to the upcoming new issue of "World Song".
Because the BGM of the short film is the accompaniment of Jiang Yuan’s new song that will be sung on the show.
In addition, this is the penultimate episode of the "World Song" program. For fans, it can be said that one episode is missing.
The attention itself is not low, and this time, even before the main film of the program was released, Jiang Yuan-related topics had already formed a hot search trend on multiple platforms.
Many fans and even passers-by are waiting for the show and new songs to be released.
It was also at the same time that Jiang Yuan's latest single sound source and the program's feature film were released simultaneously.
