The special feature of "Living Alone" witnesses the whole process of Jiang Yuan's official announcement of becoming an Omega from a behind-the-scenes perspective.
In addition, the program team was also unaware of the shooting angle at the beginning, which further increased the variety show effect.
"So you were already at the awards ceremony and you were completely unaware?"
In the observation room, some guests couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, we didn't expect this at all when we arrived at the scene. Everyone thought Jiang Yuan might just be a guest performer..." the staff at the scene replied.
Carl watched the program through translated subtitles.
After the scene switched to the awards ceremony, Karl also saw himself as the backdrop.
Although it feels a bit subtle, after a few days, Carl has almost recovered, so watching the show at this time, there is still a vague sense of anticipation and inexplicable immersion, and I want to watch Jiang Yuan on stage to receive the award again.
For such a highlight moment, the program team of "Living Alone" naturally announced the complete awards without editing at all, and all the clips of Jiang Yuan's acceptance speech on stage were included in the main film.
Even more than that, after He Fang noticed the movements of the reporters at that time, he quickly asked the photographer to separate the camera and record all the reactions of the media at the scene, which further enhanced the dramatic tension.
“I’m still very excited to watch it again!”
"We were all completely confused at the scene."
“It’s really a blessing to be on our show!”
"The reaction at the scene must have been exaggerated. After all, no one expected Jiang Yuan to be Omega..."
The guests in the observation room were also chatting among themselves.
At the same time, after this clip was played, a piece of Jiang Yuan's interpretation of this clip after the award ceremony was also inserted.
Different from the formal interview with the media at the scene, Jiang Yuan also shared a little bit about the reactions of the artists sitting next to him at the scene, which was regarded as an interesting behind-the-scenes story.
The entire program is two and a half hours long, which is much longer than some movies.
As an audience member, Karl did not feel the length of time at all, and unknowingly saw the part near the end.
The advantage of filming in the form of a variety show is that it is obviously more interesting than the documentary form, and the whole episode will not feel dull.
To some extent, the guests in the observation room did play a role as Internet substitutes in Karl's eyes, and they often resonated with each other.
The content of the program itself is also quite rich. In addition to recording Jiang Yuan's time on stage and behind the scenes of becoming an Omega, it also recorded many clips of Jiang Yuan's daily life in London.
This aspect is more like the slow-paced and leisurely style of "Living Alone" in the past, which is also very popular with the audience.
Even part of Jiang Yuan's trip to attend a writer's salon was recorded, but the specific details of the salon were not photographed.
When I saw this section, I felt a little sorry for Karl, the founder of the salon. I thought that if I had known about such a program at that time, I would have invited the program team in as well.
Until the end of the program, there was also a relatively important program content. A nearly 20-minute interview jointly accepted by Jiang Yuan and Yang Chao was released.
From the perspectives of Yang Chao and Jiang Yuan, some works published in the past two years are reviewed.
Many details were disclosed for the first time in this interview, such as Jiang Yuan's publishing habits, future publishing plans, etc. The amount of information is quite sufficient.
In this interview, Jiang Yuan and Yang Chao also officially shared part of the information about the new book, namely "Sherlock Holmes".
Different from the more general statements in other media that a new book will be released, here Jiang Yuan and Yang Chao directly explained the title of the book, the style of the story, and even the background.
"Living Alone" also handled the introduction of this section very seriously, and even made a relatively touching silhouette animation based on the two people's descriptions.
At the later stage, I also asked Jiang Yuan for his opinion, so the animated silhouette was also a typical Sherlock Holmes image.
Paired with the classical suspense soundtrack, this section can be directly used as a promotional video for the new book.
"This is something I am actively promoting at the moment. If I can make it in time, I hope it will be officially launched a few days after Jiang Yuan's new album is released, which is when the new year comes." Yang Chao's advertisement was very formal, and included the title of the new book.
The launch time has been officially announced.
Karl had to admit that while watching this interview, he was indeed inspired by Jiang Yuan's new book.
Because of the popularity of the Poirot series and "No One Survived" in the past year, they all use the background of the old era and have successfully set off a retro trend in the world of mystery novels.
Everyone suddenly became interested in stories with this background, and even Karl was trying to write in this aspect.
At this time, I suddenly heard Yang Chao's introduction to the detective Sherlock Holmes, and a very touching feeling arose spontaneously.
Unlike Poirot, a detective who makes readers feel the charm bit by bit through stories, Holmes already has a very handsome image in everyone's mind through a few words between Jiang Yuan and Yang Chao before his official debut.
After the entire program ended, Karl subconsciously opened the contact information that had previously been added to Jiang Yuan and sent a few private messages, hoping to book a signed and limited edition of the new book with Jiang Yuan.
Without him, the advertising is too good.
At that time, the Golden Dagger Award was over, and after Yang Chao confirmed that he would be interviewed by the program team, he sorted out some of the publication materials overnight and publicized them all at once during the interview stage.
They all announced things like free postcards for pre-orders, various special limited editions, and opportunities to get signed copies.
This kind of very obvious advertisement may be asked to be more restrained in the advertisements of guests on "Living Alone" on weekdays.
However, Jiang Yuan obviously got some special treatment. Not only was there no editing at all, but he even signed a special line with the sponsor of the show.
When the new book is ready to go online, a special linkage event will be held to promote it, and special platform bonuses will be given as a gift when purchased on the e-commerce platform.
Even on the show, Yang Chao restrained himself a little. After the interview, Yang Chao seemed to be inspired by the integration of materials, and he also proposed whether to add a random card setting.
After all, Jiang Yuan has just revealed Omega's character design and officially revealed his face. If he shoots a set of photo cards with Omega's appearance at this time, it will definitely sell out.
I have to say that Yang Chao's idea is indeed constructive to a certain extent, and he can properly sell the book as an album.
Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment, but gave up the idea. After all, the materials already prepared were sufficient. Adding random small cards to the book would not look good. Yang Chao, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, received a small impression from his daughter.
After the impact of the card culture, I still became a little more black-hearted.
After final discussion, it was decided that the identity of Omega would be the main focus in promoting the book.
Although Jiang Yuan and Omega's traffic can be borrowed from each other, they still need to try to eliminate traffic as much as possible in publicity and maintain the independence of the two identities as much as possible.
After the show ended, the number of views and popularity of the special episode really exploded as everyone expected.
It was an explosion at home and abroad at the same time.
After Carl received a positive reply from Jiang Yuan, he also specially promoted the program on his own media account.
Others who are even more exaggerated are Paul and the members of the Blu-ray band, who are all actively promoting Jiang Yuan on their accounts.
Paul even updated n number of updates by himself and shared many clips from the show, acting like a big fan of Jiang Yuan.
One of the developments that attracted everyone's attention was the part about the promotion of the new book. Paul praised "Sherlock Holmes" in a non-spoiler way.
The meaning between the lines was written by me watching Jiang Yuan type this book, with a tone full of showing off.
On domestic platforms, "Living Alone" has also generated several hot topics.
Among them, the advertisement for the new book also occupied a special section, which aroused heated discussion among fans.
Due to Jiang Yuan's fall from grace, the already high market price of the previously released collector's edition once again experienced a crazy surge.
It can be said that the price in the secondary market has reached a very outrageous price, and the growth rate of proper financial products has directly surpassed that of various stock funds and the like.
Therefore, Jiang Yuan and the publishing house launched various limited collections this time. Not only were they not criticized for being flashy and money-making, but they were unanimously praised by fans.
[Okay, okay, the price of the new collector's book can finally be reduced! 】
[The opportunity to own a collector's edition has come again. The publishing house is really very efficient!]
[Jiang Yuan is such a big fan, so he changed it to a limited time reservation because he was afraid that people wouldn’t be able to grab the limited quantity.]
[I just want to know how many signed copies there are in the promotion?]
[Hurry up and pre-order, I will buy it all immediately.]
[Is there any new preview image to check the configuration?]
[Laughing so hard, I feel like buying an album. 】
——
The attention of the new book began to soar after the first episode of the program was broadcast, which was much stronger than many advertisements.
Even many fans abroad are asking whether these limited editions will be available abroad.
The special series of "Living Alone" is divided into two issues, which will be released in two weeks.
The first issue directly showed the most exciting content, while the second issue focused more on Jiang Yuan’s behind-the-scenes schedule and citywalk.
However, the broadcast volume is still far higher than some previous programs, and it even has many fans abroad.
After the reason why Jiang Yuan held a flash mob handshake meeting in Paris was broadcast, it became a hot topic again.
At the time when "Living Alone" was getting a huge response, Jiang Yuan basically had no other schedule.
Together with the other actors and staff of the crew, I devoted myself to the filming and production of "The Invisible Guest" without hearing anything outside the window.
It's like this one week, and it's the same thing week after week.
The whole group of actors seemed to clock in at a fixed time, starting work in the morning and finishing in the evening.
The filming progress was also at this pace, advancing rapidly to the end.
While striving for perfection and adding some reshoots, it took two days longer than the originally estimated three weeks.
After more than half a month of high-efficiency operation, "The Invisible Guest" finally ushered in the final moment.
Including the previous shooting time, the shooting was completed in less than two months.
However, due to the interruption in the filming and the preparation time in the early stage, when the final day arrived, everyone suddenly felt that a lot of time had actually been spent along the way.
"It's done!"
When the last scene ended, He Jing also had a smile on his face when he announced the news.
With cakes and bouquets purchased in advance, the entire crew was filled with a festive atmosphere.
The photographer also recorded this moment for later broadcast as a behind-the-scenes feature.
Although some actors had finished filming in advance, they still rushed back to celebrate together at this last moment.
After the celebration, there were some sad emotions of parting. After spending more than half a month together, we still had some feelings.
Fortunately, we still have promotions to run together afterwards, which dilutes some of the sadness.
Compared with other movies that don't necessarily have a certain time to be officially released after completion, the answer given by He Jing is very clear, try to release it as soon as possible, and it will be within next year at the latest.
The movie has not yet officially started publicity and is already very popular at home and abroad. Everyone believes that this day will not come too late.
At the small closing banquet in the evening, Jiang Yuan leaned on his seat and played with his mobile phone.
I’m not very interested in the atmosphere of this type of banquet, but I still need to be present.
Fortunately, no one took the initiative to disturb Jiang Yuan, which made Jiang Yuan feel a little more comfortable at the banquet.
I browsed around on the Internet and found that "The Invisible Guest" has just finished filming today, and news has already been posted on the Internet and has become a hot topic, and many marketing accounts are carrying it.
Jiang Yuan thought about it and also updated the final photos on his account to record this rather important day.
As soon as the final photos were posted, the number of comments under the post began to increase rapidly.
Jiang Yuan glanced briefly before switching the platform and starting to synchronize the news.
After updating everything manually and making sure that nothing was missing, Jiang Yuan quit these software, then went to Yuan Universe, his own small circle, to take a look, and shared the dynamic sharing that was different from other platforms.
I also took a real-time photo of the dinner in front of me, which gave fans of Yuan Universe a more sense of life and a more "one of my own" atmosphere.
After a wave of daily operations, Jiang Yuan glanced at the replies from fans in Yuan Universe.
At this time, He Jing also finished saying hello and sat down next to Jiang Yuan again.
