The time spent backstage watching the performance didn't take long.
There was nothing that required Jiang Yuan and Shang Yaner to perform deliberately. They just needed to react naturally when watching the performance.
During the period, the host Li Di will also adjust the atmosphere appropriately to improve the program effect.
For example, when Chen Zhinan went on stage to perform "Unforgivable", Li Di's reaction was very interesting, because Chen Zhinan made a lot of adaptations to this song.
Chen Zhinan added a rap of his own writing to the middle of the original song, which can be said to be the most exciting part of the entire performance.
Chen Zhinan wrote the lyrics of the entire rap from the perspective of a quarreling young couple, and after the performance, it seemed a bit abstract.
Jiang Yuan also did not expect that Chen Zhinan would do such a big thing with the song "Unforgivable".
Although it cannot be called a very good performance, it was indeed the most effective one of the day.
To some extent, it is not much different from a skit.
Jiang Yuan and others were smiling brightly when they were watching backstage, and so were the audience at the scene.
But if you think about it carefully, you can actually understand why Chen Zhinan would do such a big thing. It's simply because he saw that the episode in which Jiang Yuan participated would have a relatively high number of views.
So I want to take this opportunity to make my performance stand out.
A big part of the reason why people like Xie Yiran actively took on the music variety show "Original Soundtrack" was due to this reason.
After Chen Zhinan, the performances of others seemed normal.
Especially Xie Yiran and Zou Yuan, who covered the works very seriously. Their singing skills and singing quotient were both online, presenting a good performance effect and winning applause from the audience.
As for the other two up-and-coming stars, they just covered the songs in a rather plain way, which did not leave too deep an impression on people. It can only be said that it was a mediocre performance.
While watching the performance backstage, Jiang Yuan also silently scored everyone's performance in his mind.
Even though the host Li Di kept reminding him, Jiang Yuan did not forget to participate in the recording of "Original Soundtrack" and also took on the responsibilities of a judge.
However, after enjoying all the performances, Jiang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone's performance level can be described as clearly different. Basically, anyone who can sing can hear the difference, and there was no situation where it was difficult to make a decision.
After listening to it once, Jiang Yuan was able to decide who to vote for: Xie Yiran and Zou Yuan.
However, the specific choice to be made still requires some thought.
Jiang Yuan was thinking in his heart, and it was time for the live host to cue Jiang Yuan to return to the studio.
Everyone backstage immediately stood up, greeted Li Di, and walked towards the studio together.
Everyone must be present at the encore time.
When returning to the stage, Jiang Yuan quickly changed into an outfit different from her previous performance, a well-cut white dress, a high-end custom-made item of the brand she was endorsing that had not yet been made public.
When the fans at the scene saw Jiang Yuan appear on stage in this outfit, they couldn't help but start cheering.
The fatigue from recording the show seemed to be swept away at this moment. When Jiang Yuan was present, the fans returned to the state when the recording just started.
Everyone stood in a row on the stage, and Jiang Yuan naturally stood in the center, after all, he was the main star of the show that day.
This episode of the program can almost be said to be centered around Jiang Yuan.
Including when Xie Yiran and others appeared on the stage just now, they kept cueing Jiang Yuan.
The scene returned and the host immediately interacted with Jiang Yuan.
"Did you see everyone's performance backstage just now?" the host named Yu Rui asked Jiang Yuan.
Faced with this question, Jiang Yuan nodded as a matter of course, "Of course."
"Do you have a favorite performance?" Yu Rui continued to ask with a smile.
"Are we going to announce the final results now?" Jiang Yuan asked after a moment of silence.
Yu Rui heard this and waved his hand. "That's not the part yet. I just want to ask, how does it feel to see so many pieces of music that you have participated in performed on the same stage?"
Jiang Yuan held the microphone and thought for a while, then came up with an adjective, "It feels quite intimate, right?"
Seeing that Yu Rui continued to blink and look at him, as if expecting him to continue speaking, Jiang Yuan continued to hold up the microphone.
Thanks to the fact that in the past year, he often had to interact with concert audiences in real time on the concert stage, Jiang Yuan behaved very naturally even when recording a show in a small studio.
"In fact, when we were backstage, Yan'er and I always thought that we could add some seats on site so that everyone could watch together."
"It's exciting enough to watch it through the screen. It would be an even better experience if we were there in person," Jiang Yuan said with a smile.
As soon as Jiang Yuan finished speaking, before the host could respond, a burst of enthusiastic cheers rang out from the audience.
For a moment, Jiang Yuan felt like he was back at his own concert.
When the host Yu Rui heard such a response, he couldn't help but be dazed for a moment. For a moment he didn't understand why the cheers from the audience were so enthusiastic.
After all, when the program was broadcast in the past, this level of cheering could basically only be achieved through post-production dubbing.
It was a rare opportunity for Yu Rui to experience such enthusiastic audience feedback on site.
In fact, some fans at the scene were cheering sincerely for Jiang Yuan’s suggestions.
After recording an entire episode, everyone hoped that Jiang Yuan could sit in the studio and watch the performance together, so that he could at least be in the studio for a longer time.
The other part came from the enthusiastic calls from CP fans, which was also because of Jiang Yuan's casual call when he mentioned Shang Yaner.
Yu Rui was naturally not aware of the details involved. After being surprised, he quickly reacted and began to control the scene. "This is the first time someone has made this suggestion. Director, please consider it." Yu Rui pointed at the camera and quickly continued to interact with Jiang Yuan. "Today, you actually came to the scene of our "Original Soundtrack" to promote the movie you two co-starred in."
Before Jiang Yuan needed to make public his voting results, Yu Rui also took the initiative to cue the film promotion.
Promoting the movie was the main reason why Jiang Yuan and the others came to participate in this program, so when they heard the word "movie", they immediately became excited.
"Yes, I came to the scene of "Original Soundtrack" today because I really want to introduce our latest movie "Love Letter" to everyone." Jiang Yuan looked at the camera in front of him and said seriously.
These words are mainly directed to the audience who watch the show after it is broadcast.
After all, the number of live audiences is limited, and the nature of the fans is very clear, so such publicity is unlikely to have any promotional effect.
"This is the first time that Jiang Yuan has served as a director, and it is also the first time that I have become an actor, and we have completed a film together." Shang Yaner also said from the side.
For the promotion of this part, although Jiang Yuan and Shang Yan'er did not prepare any specific dialogues, they still roughly sorted out the framework of the dialogue, so the promotion of the movie was also brought out in the words and conversations between the two who seemed to be chatting.
"'Love Letter' will be officially released to the public on Christmas Eve this year." Jiang Yuan concluded by announcing the release date of the film and ending the dialogue.
But the promotional part obviously couldn't be so short. When the host Yu Rui saw the dialogue stop, he raised the microphone again and started guiding.
"Since we've come to our 'Soundtrack' stage, is there anything you can reveal about the soundtrack of the movie 'Love Letter'?" Yu Rui looked at Shang Yan'er and asked.
"I haven't listened to the complete soundtrack of the movie, but I know that it was all produced by Jiang Yuan." Shang Yan'er glanced at Jiang Yuan and said.
After he finished speaking, Yu Rui and the audience's attention shifted to Jiang Yuan again.
"This has nothing to do with spoilers, but I can tell you all about it in advance." Jiang Yuan said holding the microphone.
“In fact, we can release one of the songs to everyone in advance later on the scene.”
In the first sentence of his speech, Jiang Yuan dropped a piece of news that excited the fans present.
When we saw Jiang Yuan return to the stage, everyone thought that the next recording would simply be watching Jiang Yuan promoting and chatting on the stage.
Now hearing Jiang Yuan say this, I realized why Jiang Yuan changed into a new dress.
After the scene calmed down a bit, Jiang Yuan continued, "Another thing I can reveal to you is that the soundtrack of this movie will be mainly instrumental music."
"Is there any reason?" Yu Rui added appropriately.
"I think pure music should be more suitable for the atmosphere and tone of the movie." Jiang Yuan answered according to his own understanding.
“In fact, I have been involved in the entire music composition process.”
“This includes recording each piece of music, and deciding which music should go with which scene in the movie.”
Jiang Yuan thought about it and shared with the audience some of his experiences in the post-production of the film.
For fans, this part of the sharing can be regarded as the behind-the-scenes view of the production of the soundtrack.
At the same time, while listening to Jiang Yuan’s narration, fans also gradually understood the efforts Jiang Yuan had made in the production of this film.
Since the fans already attached great importance to this movie, when they heard Jiang Yuan talk about the behind-the-scenes work, they couldn't help but take it even more seriously.
"Wow, that can really be said to be a work where a lot of the work was done personally." The host Yu Rui couldn't help but sigh.
"I have indeed participated in quite a lot of work." Jiang Yuan nodded with a smile and did not deny it.
In fact, this statement, when made on the show, is not 100% favorable.
For example, if the movie fails in the end, all the blame will be put on Jiang Yuan at once, after all, he is said to have personally participated in many aspects of the film's production.
However, Jiang Yuan was confident that "Love Letter" would definitely not end up like this, so it wouldn't matter much if he talked about it on the show.
On the stage, while talking with everyone, everything he wanted to reveal and promote about the movie "Love Letter" was inadvertently revealed.
Seeing that the publicity was almost in place, Jiang Yuan and the host exchanged a glance. As soon as their eyes met, and with the previous instructions, Yu Rui immediately understood and stopped talking about the movie, and returned to the main topic of the day's performance.
"Then the next piece that Jiang Yuan is going to perform for the audience should also be an instrumental piece, right?" Yu Rui looked at Jiang Yuan and asked.
The audience also looked at Jiang Yuan with anticipation. In the eyes of fans, Jiang Yuan was dressed so handsomely, he must be going to perform in person.
"Yes, I will perform this piece of music in the form of piano performance."
"At the same time, we have invited orchestra teachers to recreate the music effects of the recording studio for everyone on site."
Jiang Yuan answered and also introduced the lineup for the performance, which was in line with the fans' imagination of this part.
Yu Rui listened to the cheers from the audience, nodded, and continued to host, "I know everyone is quite excited. But before the performance begins, we have to make a decision first."
After hearing this description, Jiang Yuan remembered that there was still voting to be done. During the conversation just now, Jiang Yuan, the audience, and Xie Yiran and others had completely forgotten the concept of voting.
"This is indeed a difficult decision. If you don't mention it, I would almost forget it." Jiang Yuan smiled and shook his head.
"Do you have the answer in your mind now?" Yu Rui asked.
"Actually, I think everyone performed very well today. So if I have to choose someone to vote for, my choice is actually based more on my personal preference." Jiang Yuan also knew that it was time to announce the results, but he still chose to put on a layer of armor before the official announcement.
Although Xie Yiran and the others were indifferent and didn't seem to care much about Jiang Yuan's voting results, when the results were finally revealed, everyone's eyes were still focused on Jiang Yuan, and their body movements also showed some nervousness.
After stacking the armor in advance, Jiang Yuanyuan did not procrastinate any longer, but directly announced her favorite ranking.
"In fact, as far as my personal preference is concerned, I still prefer Xie Yiran's performance."
There is no mysterious part, Jiang Yuan said directly. After all, this is not a program that needs to create suspense.
However, after the answer was announced, the reactions of several people at the scene were different.
