Chapter 910: Demons

On the day when the "Demons" live video was released, most of the Spring Festival holiday had already passed.

Jiang Yuan also finished the first round of roadshows with He Jing and others. After visiting five cities, he returned to Shanghai.

With no plans for a second round of roadshows for now, apart from rehearsing for the encore performances, this can be considered a belated vacation.

So before the video of "Demons" was officially released, Jiang Yuan also conducted a long-awaited home live broadcast through Yuan Universe.

Just one hour before the video went online, there would be a similar live broadcast when the album was released in the past.

However, compared with previous live broadcasts with specially arranged backgrounds and physical albums being unpacked and displayed, this live broadcast at home seemed a lot more casual.

Jiang Yuan even appeared in front of the camera without makeup and wearing pajamas. Without filters, the condition of her skin could be clearly observed.

Compared to some dazzling portraits or photos with makeup, Jiang Yuan's appearance without makeup makes fans feel a lot more real and intimate.

"Hello, everyone." Jiang Yuan looked at the scrolling messages carefully, and occasionally said hello and responded.

Within a short period of time after the broadcast started, the number of people watching the live broadcast online exceeded 100,000.

Jiang Yuan just casually posted a text trailer on Yuan Universe an hour before the show started. It is quite amazing to see such data performance.

Without any particular purpose, Jiang Yuan just started chatting with fans casually.

"You send messages so quickly that I can only see some of them, so it's hard to reply to all of them." Jiang Yuan added this before the chat began.

"Where am I now?" Jiang Yuan looked at the comments and began to ask himself questions. "I didn't read the message I sent before. I said it was a live broadcast from home, so of course I'm at home."

"This is a corner of the study. I decorated it a little bit. Recently, I will watch some movies here, or sometimes I will write something here."

As Jiang Yuan spoke, he picked up his phone to film and showed the environment he was in during the live broadcast.

As a maximalist, Jiang Yuan bought a lot of things for his home during his rare free time.

Even if you are away from home for a long time, home is still home and there are a lot of things placed there.

Especially places like the study room, where Jiang Yuan spends most of his time, he took advantage of the Spring Festival to decorate it well.

First, a projector and screen were purchased for watching movies, and then a thick plush carpet was laid opposite the projector.

The quality is very good and it is very warm. It was a gift received from the brand.

It was only after a while that Jiang Yuan realized that the price of this carpet was as high as six figures. He was a little shocked, but he liked to stay on this carpet even more.

Combined with the scented candles and warm ambient lights lit in the house, the entire study looks warm.

Just like doing a room tour (a video showing off a house), Jiang Yuan took his fans around his study before sitting back down on the carpet, leaning against the cushions in the corner.

"If I go home recently, I spend most of my time in the study, except for sleeping."

Jiang Yuan looked at the comments and saw many fans expressing their love for his own study room, and he also explained it briefly.

"It's just right for me to relax and work at the same time." Jiang Yuan said as he used another mobile phone to play some background music.

The music was broadcast from the more expensive speakers, instantly creating a three-dimensional surround effect around Jiang Yuan.

The playlist was exactly the songs from the previous English album. Along with the music, Jiang Yuan continued to chat with fans.

"The Spring Festival holiday is about to end, right? I saw a lot of people saying that they will start school in a few days."

"As for me, I actually just had a day off today. I've been on the roadshow to many cities these days and eaten a lot of delicious food."

Jiang Yuan looks back on this round of roadshow and feels that it was quite meaningful.

Because the roadshows in each city were separated by a certain amount of time, and since they were already here, Jiang Yuan, He Jing and the others took a good look around each city.

In addition to reminiscing, Jiang Yuan also shared some of his delicious food with fans.

"I can't say any more. I'm already hungry before mealtime." After counting a bunch of delicious foods on his fingers, Jiang Yuan also felt a little hungrier.

"What are you going to have for dinner? Please give me some recommendations."

Jiang Yuan watched the barrage of comments carefully and interacted with fans. The whole thing was a rather casual live broadcast.

After chatting about some other topics, we got back to the point when a fan brought it up.

"The live video will be online soon." Jiang Yuan first repeated the content of the barrage, and then began to respond, "Yes, about half an hour."

Jiang Yuan glanced at the time, then continued to talk about the live video and explained to everyone why they didn't shoot the MV.

"Speaking of which, this live was actually filmed not long ago. I filmed it when I returned to Shanghai a while ago."

"Will you sing this new song at the concert? Probably." Jiang Yuan answered fans' questions and messages attentively.

After the cue to the concert, Jiang Yuan could clearly sense that the speed of message refresh had become much faster again.

Jiang Yuan simply reported the progress of the concert preparations.

"Rehearsals should begin in the next few days."

"But where it will be held specifically depends on how the venue is booked. I can't tell you that for now." Jiang Yuan shook his head and said.

As for spoilers, Jiang Yuan chose to stop at the point.

After a brief chat, the topic quickly returned to casual conversation.

"Yes, some of the themes and concepts of the new album will be answered in the magazine interview, so I won't tell you yet." Jiang Yuan replied to some messages.

"The live video should be online soon. I'll say goodbye to everyone later."

Jiang Yuan glanced at the time and found that almost an hour had passed while they were chatting.

I spent most of my time chatting with fans and sharing my life, and I didn't feel the time passing.

The live video of "Demons" will be released soon, and Jiang Yuan also explained to fans which platforms the video will be released on.

Basically, it will be treated according to the distribution specifications of MV, and there will be relevant pre-heating push before it is launched on all platforms.

Some software also pushed relevant messages to users who had made appointments or followed Jiang Yuan’s account a few minutes in advance.

When the live broadcast time came, in order not to occupy the fans' mobile phone screens, Jiang Yuan waved his hand and ended the live broadcast. After all, it was not the audio source that was put online, otherwise Jiang Yuan could have accompanied them to listen to it for a while.

After the live broadcast, Jiang Yuan opened the food delivery app and prepared to order dinner for himself. During the live broadcast, he talked a lot about dinner, which made Jiang Yuan feel a little hungry. Unlike Jiang Yuan, his fans immediately switched to the live video of "Demons" after Jiang Yuan left the live broadcast.

Xue Xin was one of the fans who clicked on the live broadcast to watch it as soon as she left the show.

At this time, Xue Xin was in the hospital and had just finished an outpatient follow-up visit. Her condition had not been very good recently. Although she could not be said to have a serious illness, she was still depressed due to the illness.

Coupled with the fear and aversion to seeing a doctor, I feel depressed and also have some internal friction.

For Xue Xin, chasing stars is a way to recharge herself. Although she only caught up with the last few minutes of Jiang Yuan's live broadcast, her mood has improved a lot.

At the same time, there are great expectations for the new single "Demons".

When the song trailer was released earlier, Xue Xin also listened to it, but because she didn't hear the whole song and what was released was not the climax of the song, her expectations for this new song can only be described as just okay.

What really piqued Xue Xin's interest in this single was Jiang Yuan's brief introduction to the song before the end of the live broadcast, in which he said that he hoped everyone could draw strength from the song after listening to it.

Xue Xin pressed the play button with such expectations.

Wearing earplugs, Xue Xin immersed herself in the song in the empty seat in the outpatient clinic.

Xue Xin heard the beginning of the live show again. It was the same part as in the trailer.

Perhaps it was because she knew there would be a sequel to the song so she listened to it more carefully, or maybe it was because she had listened to it once in advance, which made Xue Xin feel more deeply.

“.I wanna hide the truth, I wanna shelter you,

But with the beast inside, There's nowhere we can hide
(I want to hide the truth in my heart so that I can build a heaven to protect you,

It’s just that the beast within us is so fierce and powerful that we have nowhere to hide.)”

After the slightly cold trailer was sung, the sky began to clear up slightly.

More tones were added to the accompaniment, and combined with Jiang Yuan's singing voice and the meaning of the lyrics, Xue Xin did feel some warmth, and she watched the song more attentively.

“No matter what we breed, we still are made of greed,

This is my kingdom come! This is my kingdom come!
(No matter what we eat, we are all animals piled up by greed,

The kingdom of desire dominated by me rises from the ground, my kingdom has arrived! )"

Although it is a recorded live video, the audience can still feel the unique charm of live through the screen.

Jiang Yuan held the microphone stand, completely immersed in the singing, with a sense of calmness and soothing in his voice.

Although many songs can resonate with the listeners to a certain extent, most of them still make people sad after resonating with them, and they only make people sadder after listening to them, but they don’t provide much comfort.

But "Demons" is obviously not such a song. Just the change in the main song part makes Xue Xin feel a little more excited. Although it may only be for a moment, it is enough at the moment.

After the main part, the song quickly enters the chorus part.

Although the audio source of the live video is the best version recorded that afternoon, the images are spliced ​​together from several different time periods.

When entering the chorus, the background of the picture also uses the brightest scene of the sky.

The blue sky and golden sunlight shone on Jiang Yuan and the musicians, and the drum beats sounded just right, lifting the audience's spirits.

At this time, Jiang Yuan's singing became much more passionate as the accompaniment changed.

"When you feel my heat, look into my eyes,

It's where my demons hide, It's where my demons hide.
(When you feel my heat, look into my eyes,

My inner demon is there, it has made its home in my mind! )"

While singing, Jiang Yuan stared at the camera closely, and the video also gave a close-up of Jiang Yuan's facial expression.

Through the screen, Xue Xin seemed to be looking at Jiang Yuan from a distance.

As the chorus suddenly sounded, a lot of courage surged in my heart, as if I was comforted, and my nose unconsciously felt a little sore.

"Don't get too lose, It's drak inside,

It's where my demons hide
(Don’t get close, it’s dark inside, my inner demon is there)”

With earphones plugged in, Xue Xin seemed to be just staring at the phone screen calmly.

But my heart was already pounding with the beat of the song, and I unconsciously began to shake my legs to the beat.

After a passionate chorus, there is no interlude, and the next second, the song directly switches to the next verse part.

"At the curtain's call, It's the last of all,

when the lights fade out, all the sinners crawl
(When the curtain falls, it will all be over,
As the light fades, all evil begins to stir)"

Jiang Yuan sang seriously while holding the microphone stand tilted. This segment was filmed using a drone that circled Jiang Yuan 360 degrees, and the whole picture looked very pure.

But it is obvious that after the progression of the chorus, Jiang Yuan's emotions when handling the second verse were obviously much fuller.

Therefore, a sunny sky was specially selected as the background.

When Xue Xin saw this aerial shot, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Indeed, looking at this kind of picture that is good for the eyes, her mood will involuntarily become much brighter.

"so they dug your grave, and the masquerade
will come calling out, at the mess you made
(They dig up your graves, tear off your disguises,

I screamed with all my heart broken, amidst the mess you had caused.)"

While Xue Xin was listening to Jiang Yuan's singing, she was also trying to understand the translation of the lyrics.

But compared to those straightforward lyrics, the lyrics of "Demons" are obviously much more figurative.

However, this kind of figurative expression allows the audience to intuitively feel the emotions that the song wants to convey.

A song lasts about three minutes, and Xue Xin quickly finished watching Jiang Yuan's performance.

After listening to this song, I really felt that my mood was lifted a lot.

Although it’s not so exaggerated that one can be healed by a song and all worries disappear at once, it is enough for a song to have such a recharging effect.

Life is like this, we always have to seek some small happiness of our own. Xue Xin set the video to background playback mode, and stood up while listening to the song on loop.
