Chapter 879 Return Plan
After the New Year’s Eve concert, many fans will go to a hot pot restaurant for dinner in groups, just like after a normal concert.

Many hot pot restaurants are already familiar with this business.

For example, in the store that Jiang Yuan came to, before Jiang Yuan arrived, the store had been playing Jiang Yuan's playlist on repeat.

This way, fans will also feel the atmosphere as soon as they arrive.

The entire store was filled with fans in no time.

Listening outside through the gap in the box door, I could clearly feel that the scene had become much more lively after the fans arrived.

The staff in the store were very enthusiastic when serving the fans.

Before Jiang Yuan came out of the box, the fans simply thought that the service in this restaurant was better and they all praised it.

It was not until Jiang Yuan finished his meal with the team and was about to leave that he appeared in front of his fans.

Just when Jiang Yuan left the store, the song playing in the store was "Memories", a song that had just been released not long ago.

As a fan standing right opposite the box door, he was picking up some food. When he saw the door open, he raised his head and looked at Jiang Yuan, and was stunned on the spot.

After a few seconds of buffering, a fan finally reacted and shouted Jiang Yuan's name.

But obviously because of the excessive emotion, the shouting was a little distorted.

It was precisely because of this distorted sound that it attracted the attention of other fans who were farther away.

Like the collapse of dominoes, it started from a corner of the store and spread out, and then the eyes of fans throughout the store were cast on the door of the box.

There were even quite a few fans who stood up from their seats.

The hotpot party was instantly transformed into a small fan meeting, and the quick-reacting fans subconsciously turned on their cellphone cameras to record the scene.

Facing the gazes of fans at the scene, Jiang Yuan remained calm and waved and greeted them with a smile, "Good evening, everyone!"

After Jiang Yuan spoke, everyone at the scene reacted and the already bustling hot pot restaurant became even more noisy.

Jiang Yuan stood there and could hear some fans discussing in low voices from time to time.

"Damn, is it really Jiang Yuan?"

“I thought it was a cosplay.

"Wipe the red oil off your mouth."

"You're not dreaming, are you?"

"Fuck, why are you pinching me?"

“Make sure you’re not dreaming”

-

Most of the fans at the scene were showing off their late dinner and had no idea that Jiang Yuan would suddenly appear in the store.

So when such a situation actually happens, there will be a certain degree of unreal feeling as if you are dreaming.

However, in this way, the service attitude of the on-site staff, which was much better than before, seems to be more traceable.

When leaving the store, Jiang Yuan just said hello to the fans at the scene and did not stay for long.

After all, there is no event to be held on site, it can only be regarded as an encounter with fans.

The fans present were also very orderly. They just greeted Jiang Yuan as if they had met an ordinary friend by chance, and did not rush over directly.

Although no new activities were arranged on site, Jiang Yuan still paid for all the fans' bills before leaving the store.

The total cost of each table is not a small amount, but considering Jiang Yuan’s current savings level, it is not so bad.

But Jiang Yuan also gave the fans at the scene a taste of what it means to be pampered.

There was no deliberate concealment. After Jiang Yuan paid the bill and left the store, the staff on site directly announced that Jiang Yuan had paid for everyone.

In addition, he also ordered a drink for each fan before leaving the scene.

This kind of fan-sharing made the fans at the scene feel happy, and they also started to record it on Yuan Universe.

The experience of encountering Jiang Yuan being paid for is not the first time in the Yuan Universe, but it is still something to be envied.

There were quite a few audience members who attended the New Year's Eve concert that night, and the fans who appeared in the same hot pot restaurant were only a very small part of them.

But thanks to Jiang Yuan's behavior of pampering fans, this is not the first time, so everyone just expressed their envy on Yuan Universe, and then began to ask for photos of the encounter on the spot in the comments.

This can be considered an improvement in the mentality of Jiang Yuan's fans, because Jiang Yuan often thinks about preparing surprises for fans, but after giving surprises too many times, it becomes difficult to achieve complete balance among all fans.

When the balance is lost, the mentality of many fans becomes unbalanced and they are prone to make sour remarks.

However, when such situations occurred more and more frequently, the fans also adjusted their mentality. They were mainly worried that Jiang Yuan would reduce the number of fan comments in the future after seeing too many sour comments.

In order to deal with this situation, the fan community privately made an agreement not to compete with each other in fan-spreading behaviors, which made the fan circle ecology better.

Therefore, when people saw Jiang Yuan paying for the meal, they were mostly just sighing, and most of the time the video of the scene began to circulate on the Internet.

However, it was already midnight, and this behavior did not become a hot topic or receive much attention.

Still on the hot search list was Jiang Yuan's performance at the New Year's Eve concert that night, and how after his appearance on stage, he single-handedly saved the ratings of the evening party and helped win the average ratings championship for the evening party that day.

In addition, there is the newly released song "Memories". Even in the middle of the night, there are still many listeners listening to it. It firmly occupies the first place in the real-time listening list, surpassing a number of more fierce online hot singles that are spread on short video platforms.

After finishing the midnight snack party, Jiang Yuan left the hot pot restaurant and went straight back to the hotel to rest.

On the first day of the new year after the Chinese New Year, Jiang Yuan still had other plans, which was to be in the city of Xingcheng, just to participate in the shooting of a commercial.

It just happened to be a fashion blockbuster for a clothing brand, and the shooting location was also arranged at a show that will be held in Shanghai soon.

Early that morning, Jiang Yuan flew directly back to the Magic City from Star City, with a full schedule for the entire day.

The brand invited a big-name photographer from abroad, and during the shooting process, he kept praising Jiang Yuan's expressiveness.

Fashion photography is also an area that Jiang Yuan is quite skilled in. During the shooting of one of the short films, Jiang Yuan was specially asked to do a dance, which prepared a lot of promotional materials for future advertisements.

The venue where the shooting was completed will also host the brand's latest fashion show in the next few days.

As a spokesperson, Jiang Yuan will also be invited to watch the show, but she will get to know the show settings in advance through shooting the commercial.

Before the show schedule, Jiang Yuan had no other business schedule.

For several days in a row, I basically stayed at home to rest, except for one day when I went to Xingyuan Entertainment to hold a video conference because of The Princess' latest comeback plan.

As The Princess fan tour was in full swing, Jiang Yuan also selected two tracks based on the concepts he had previously discussed with Ji Ruiying.

During the meeting, Jiang Yuan also played the demo version of the song directly to Chi Ruiying and others.

During the few days of staying at home, Jiang Yuan also completed the production of two new song demos.

After listening to the two demos, Ji Ruiying and others, including members of The Princess who participated in the meeting, expressed great love for the two new songs.

The songs that Jiang Yuan was able to choose at this time are obviously very suitable for the style of The Princess during this period.

The group had just released their first debut album, and all of their songs combined, including covers, were not enough to support a complete concert.

Therefore, the New Year's wish that The Princess members made to their fans at the year-end fan meeting was to have a complete group concert.

The latest comeback plan arranged by Jiang Yuan and Chi Ruiying is obviously moving towards this goal.

At the same time, it is also to further consolidate and enhance the popularity of The Princess around the world in the new year.

Part of Jiang Yuan’s mission indicators are also dependent on the new group The Princess.

At this meeting, the expected return date of The Princess was quickly determined. In addition, the design of the physical version of the EP was officially implemented.

Although it is only an EP with two songs, Jiang Yuan still decided to release The Princess as a physical album.

The purpose of doing this is very pure, which is to sell records. Jiang Yuan has not forgotten that he has a target to cultivate the sales of new artists' records.

After carefully studying the task requirements, Jiang Yuan also discovered some ways to complete the task.

For example, the task only requires the number of records sold, and does not make any specific requirements on the pricing of the records.

So this time, for The Princess' latest EP, Jiang Yuan also told Chi Ruiying that he wanted to make it into a regular version CD.

In this way, costs and pricing can be kept at a relatively low price, and simple configurations such as stuffing some small cards and bookmarks into the CD will not make fans feel like they are being ripped off.

By making some small designs on the physical albums of each EP that can be spliced ​​together, once the four physical EPs are sold, it is estimated that this will help achieve a lot of sales targets.

While The Princess’ latest return plan has been finalized, the Love Letter movie also officially announced some of the latest developments.

After the most powerful first week, the impact of the New Year's Eve movies was felt, which also kept the single-day box office of "Love Letter" at a relatively high level.

However, it is worth celebrating that in the face of such an impact, "Love Letter" still managed to achieve a good box office growth.

This also allowed the film to maintain its screening schedule and not be directly defeated. After a few days, the box office of the film officially exceeded 550 million yuan and began to hit the 600 million yuan box office.

With such performance, the official Weibo of "Love Letter" also released some good news one after another.

One of them is the question that fans are more concerned about: whether there will be a roadshow after the movie is released.

After the first week of the movie's release, the box office performance in the second week was okay but not outstanding, so fans subconsciously did not hold much hope for the subsequent roadshow.

But just when everyone had given up hope for the roadshow, the official Weibo account of "Love Letter" readily announced the latest roadshow arrangements with an official picture.

The second round of roadshows is considered an activity in the mid-to-late stage of a movie’s release, and it is obviously impossible to visit as many cities as the first round of roadshows.

So in the end, we only decided to hold this round of roadshows in five cities, and the time was basically scheduled within a week.

Even so, fans and moviegoers are already very satisfied, as the five cities are all places that the previous roadshow failed to visit.

What surprised everyone even more was that for this round of roadshow activities, some official peripherals were specially produced and distributed at the event site, but the specific peripherals have not been made public to fans yet.

In addition to the official announcement of the second round of roadshows, another good news announced by the official Weibo of "Love Letter" was that the film was shortlisted for the Academy Awards.

The Academy Awards ceremony will be held in mid-January.

There are quite a few films registered in a year, but the awards still have a certain entry criteria, and only a small number of them can be selected.

The nomination of "Love Letter" also passed the review of multiple category awards.

Even though it was just a long list, fans, having just walked into the theaters and finished watching the movie, were very confident that the film would be in the running for awards, and they were looking forward to the crew appearing at the awards ceremony.

The official announcement of two consecutive good news has also increased the attention on the movie in recent days.

The growth in screenings and box office revenue has basically maintained a relatively stable trend, which is a manifestation of strong momentum.

In addition, it is worth mentioning the performance of the audio source of "Memories" in the first few days after it was launched.

Even on the global music charts, the new songs are performing extremely well.

This classic single by Maroon 5 still shows its strong magic even in a different world.

Music critics like Aaron have given high praise to this new song.

At the same time, the timing of the song's release was indeed very appropriate. At the end of the year, it really touched the hearts of many listeners.

The recent strong performance of "Memories" has also made Jiang Yuan begin to consider whether to announce plans for the next English album after this single.

After all, with so many singles, the hype has almost built up.

If the monthly singles plan continues, most of the album will probably be released by then.

On the way to the brand show, Jiang Yuan also discussed the plan with Zhang Qing.

However, time is limited, so I just made a simple assumption.

The vehicle stopped at the entrance of the show venue. Before Jiang Yuan got out of the car, many reporters who were surrounding the entrance of the venue recognized Jiang Yuan's vehicle and surrounded him.
