The song audio source and MV were released simultaneously, and most fans were the first to order the MV to watch.
Chen Xi is one of them.
As a senior CP fan of Bing Xue Qi Yuan, Chen Xi has been looking forward to the MV for "Can't help..." for many days.
From the earliest Reuters pictures to the release of the MV teaser photos, as well as some trailers and behind-the-scenes released in recent days, Chen Xi was fascinated.
Previously, Chen Xi got into the trap because of "The Secret That Cannot Be Telled" that the two of them starred in together.
But this time when she saw the MV trailer and then the video trailer, Chen Xi smelled a different love atmosphere from it.
When the time came, Chen Xi checked Jiang Yuan's account interface and saw that the scheduled posts set by Jiang Yuan were posted.
Putting on the headphones, Chen Xi began to appreciate it immersively.
In the first scene of the MV, from Jiang Yuan's perspective, he plays the image of a single artistic young man, opening a book with a dark green cover in a bookstore, and the music starts playing simultaneously.
After so many days, Chen Xi is already very familiar with the melody of "can't help...". He also watched the live videos of the music festival frequently. At the same time, he has been thinking about the lyrics and thinking about it.
What kind of love story is it more suitable for?
However, no valid conclusions could be drawn in the end.
Mainly because this song seems to match well with many love stories, otherwise it would not be often used as BGM in film and television works.
But while listening, Chen Xi discovered something different, that is, the sound source of the MV was not the rock version that Jiang Yuan sang at the music festival.
Instead, it is a pop lyric version that is more suitable for use as a soundtrack, and the entire tune sounds much softer.
In the first forty seconds of the MV, most of the shots were of Jiang Yuan appearing in various spaces such as bookstores and churches, as well as walking and stopping on various streets.
And the composition of these pictures are all beautiful without exception.
After the movie "Love Letter", Jiang Yuan also learned some more literary and artistic lens language from Fu Yunshen, which was better demonstrated in this MV.
And these pictures, which look very comfortable to the eyes, convey a very simple content from beginning to end. There is only one thing, and that is the feeling of loneliness.
From beginning to end, Jiang Yuan appears alone in the picture.
This situation took a turn about forty seconds into the MV, when Ye Xuanqi appeared in the shot.
As if she had been handed a baton, Ye Xuanqi temporarily became the main character in the MV.
Chen Xi watched a short clip carefully and realized that the previous clip of Jiang Yuan alone not only showed loneliness, but also showed Jiang Yuan's interests and hobbies in playing this character to a certain extent.
The two characters are surprisingly consistent in their interests and preferences. Although they have never been in the same frame, Chen Xi subconsciously thought that they should be a couple.
At this time, the MV also showed a more detailed life of the heroine, including the quarrel with her current boyfriend and the breakup text messages written one by one flashed across the screen.
After the quarrel, one spring night, the hero and heroine met together in a coffee shop that they often frequented.
It looked like it was just the first time for the two of them to meet, but they sat down together at the same table very naturally.
Seeing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but press the pause button and waved his hands excitedly.
The composition of this scene is very similar to the MV trailer that Chen Xi saw. It is the same scene.
She successfully recovered the trailer photos while watching the MV, which also made Chen Xi feel quite excited.
In addition to being an ordinary CP fan, Chen Xi is also a painter. She is a well-known wife in Bing Xue Qi Yuan and often produces good pictures.
For Chen Xi, this was also an experience of mutual achievement. It was precisely because some scenes of Jiang Yuan and Ye Xuanqi in the same frame made Chen Xi want to draw them, so he unknowingly improved his painting skills.
Obviously, this time the MV gave Chen Xi a similar impulse.
However, after a brief pause, Chen Xi decided to watch the MV carefully before talking about anything else.
After sharing a table in a coffee shop, the timeline in the MV changed several times in the same scene.
The flow of time is mainly expressed through the clothes of the two people, the content of the conversation and sharing, and even some photos.
In this way, it transitioned to the last scene that Jiang Yuan and the two had previously filmed. Chen Xi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, revealing a hint of an aunt's smile.
The MV ends here. The whole plot structure seems very simple. With the music and Jiang Yuan starring, it has a good bonus.
It's not that profound, but it makes Chen Xi feel like he has speed-passed a love drama.
And vaguely, Chen Xi also felt that there were some parts in the MV that she didn't understand so well.
Thinking of this, Chen Xi also quickly clicked on Kaiyuan Universe and found an account he followed, who was also a well-known one among Jiang Yuan's fans.
Basically, every time Jiang Yuan releases a new work, such as a music video, he will do a special analysis and sharing.
Waiting for the other party to release the latest analysis, Chen Xi also took out the tablet he used for drawing and began to convert the scenes he had seen from the MV into his own paintings.
After spending more than an hour to successfully complete the first draft of the first work, Chen Xi subconsciously refreshed the user account interface on his phone and found that the other party had released "Can't help falling in love" about ten minutes ago.
A long analysis of the MV.
After reading through the length of the article, Chen Xi confirmed that there must be many details in the MV that he had not seen.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Quickly scroll back to the beginning of the article and start reading one by one. You can indeed see more details of the MV from this analysis.
Before reading the analysis, Chen Xi viewed the MV more as a simple love story.
Although the part about getting acquainted and then falling in love seemed a bit sloppy, Chen Xi understood it more from the sentence that it was a MV after all, and felt that it was normal to have such a treatment in the MV.
But after reading the analysis, Chen Xicai found that the details were worth studying.
For example, in the previous scene where Jiang Yuan appeared, the puzzle can actually be found in the scene where Ye Xuanqi appeared alone after that.
After comparing the photos one by one, we finally came to the conclusion that the two characters most likely got along in the same time and space in the past.
This point alone can well explain why the two of them sat down to share a table together naturally when they met for the first time in a coffee shop, because the two had met by chance many times before.
The two characters were attracted to each other and fell in love at what point in time. These scenes that were not filmed in the same frame do provide a lot of room for imagination.
As a painter, Chen Xi's most important thing is imagination.
In a very broad imagination space, Chen Xi also expanded his imagination to his heart's content. For a while, he really had some imagination and generated a lot of inspiration for painting.
Even extending from this point, Chen Xi felt a little more immoral when looking at the love story in the MV.
Looking at some of the subsequent scenes in the MV, we have an even more ambiguous and restrained atmosphere.
In addition to being in the same frame like putting together a jigsaw puzzle, it also looks like the two of them met behind a coffee shop.
The two looked at some photos together. Chen Xi also enlarged and studied these photos while watching them.
It was confirmed that they were basically some photos that Jiang Yuan had taken in Los Angeles, and they were also one of the few photos in which the two of them had not been in the same frame.
Chen Xi's understanding of these scenes is probably what they shared after they got closer to each other's spiritual world.
But obviously, fans who specialize in analyzing MVs need to study the details much more thoroughly.
I took out two screenshots of the two people laughing and looking at the photos together, enlarged and compared them, and finally found differences in the details of several of the photos.
After carefully reading the analysis of this paragraph, Chen Xi's pupils were shaken and he couldn't help but exclaimed.
Thin, too thin.
The two screenshots seem to be shared and viewed from the same set of photos, but in fact they are not.
One set of photos was obviously taken by Jiang Yuan in Los Angeles some time ago, while the source of another set of similar photos was also found.
The source of the photo is on Ye Xuanqi's update two years ago, where she posted a set of photos recorded while traveling in Los Angeles.
This is also what Jiang Yuan did about framing before starting the MV shooting.
At this time, after CP fans saw this call back, Bingxue Qiyuan’s CP super episode also exploded.
[Holy shit, this is a MV? Who makes a MV to call back like this!]
[I knew the MV would be so good, but I didn’t expect it to be so good.]
[So I decided to go to Los Angeles for filming because I saw this set of photos of Ye Xuanqi. 】
[Can this MV be repackaged and turned into a movie? I feel like the plot is very interesting.]
【This year’s best MV has been booked.】
[Don’t be too good at taking pictures, the cycle is repeated.]
——
Even though everyone had relatively high expectations for the MV for "Can't help...", the release of the MV still successfully surprised many viewers.
Related topic entries quickly appeared on the hot search list.
On this night, fans seemed to have immersed themselves in the romance and ambiguity of a spring night created in the MV through music and images.
Ye Xuanqi also forwarded the MV on her account and expressed her love for this song.
Before filming the MV, Ye Xuanqi had heard this song in advance, and after hearing it, she wanted to find Jiang Yuan to buy the copyright for the cover.
In the end, Jiang Yuan directly gave the authorization to Ye Xuanqi, who also kindly appeared in the MV.
There are also more creative fans like Chen Xi who produced a lot of new fan art after watching the MV.
Even based on some details hidden in the MV, Chen Xi even made plans to draw these details for long-term serialization.
For fans who have just watched the MV and felt it was too short and left much to be desired, Chen Xi’s updated paintings have become a good meal replacement.
Overnight, Chen Xi's fan base began to soar rapidly.
Jiang Yuan only learned about the grand launch of "Can't help..." from the fans who picked him up after getting off the plane.
"The hot search has exploded!!" The fans' words were concise and concise.
"Is it so popular?" Jiang Yuan responded in surprise as he walked.
"It's super popular. Everyone has seen the MV and given it high praise. They all said it was a movie-level production." Fans also started praising Jiang Yuan in person.
"As long as everyone likes it," Jiang Yuan laughed and replied with a smile.
Then, before leaving the airport, Jiang Yuan was asked many questions by fans.
For example, if there is an idea of making a movie based on the MV, Jiang Yuan just answered conservatively and said not necessarily in order not to hurt the fans.
Regarding the plot of this MV, Jiang Yuan also drew inspiration from some film and television works and simplified it.
But what surprised Jiang Yuan was that the MV had only been online for a short time, and everyone had already dug out the Easter eggs buried in it.
Originally, Jiang Yuan's idea was to wait until the MV was released before revealing the details of the MV in some behind-the-scenes footage.
But now it is obviously no longer necessary.
In addition to the soaring number of views of the MV, which has aroused heated discussions, it has also brought a lot of bonuses to the song's audio performance.
Before the three versions of the music were released, everyone was more looking forward to the rock version that Jiang Yuan had already performed at the music festival.
Even after discovering that the MV did not use the rock version of the sound source, I felt a little disappointed.
Of course, after listening to the lyrical pop version of the MV, I immediately fell in love with it.
This can be seen from the music source performance that started to counterattack not long after it was launched, when Jiang Yuan's flight landed.
Among the three versions, the one with the best data has also become a lyrical pop version. Only the classical version with slower singing style will have slightly worse results.
The other two versions both performed well on the list.
After getting into the nanny car, Jiang Yuan had time to take out his mobile phone and log into Shangyuan Universe. After sending a message that he had arrived safely, he started to check "Can't help..."
The results achieved in the first few hours after going online.
First of all, on many important music charts, it has successfully taken the first place on the real-time charts.
It certainly lived up to the fans’ previous enthusiastic support and chart-topping organization.
Jiang Yuan's performance at the music festival also successfully acted as a trigger.
In the past week, Jiang Yuan's name has been mentioned and searched very frequently. Before "Can't help..." was launched, many people would view the music festival videos every day.
Passersby searched for the name of this song.
Therefore, once the song was released, in addition to the fans’ chart support, the publicity also played a large role.
In the nanny's car, Zhang Qing was also dealing with some missed news. She lowered her head and looked for a while and brought good news to Jiang Yuan.
