Have you ever been a celebrity? Why are you writing about entertainment?

The official Weibo account posted a second message at 10 a.m. the following day.

[The theme song for the TV series "The Myth" is "Crossing Over," produced by legendary music producer Yu Wei, with special guest vocals by Zhang Lingye and Chi Leying. It tells the moving story behind history. [Song >> Link]]
Although Yu Wei believes that the theme songs in this drama are the finishing touch, there is nothing wrong with the opening theme song appearing first.

What really made him lose his composure was the promotional copy: what did the legendary music producer, five-star general MacArthur, say?
Of course, the theme song for the TV series is not just a song. Xianjing Film and Television has strong capabilities and attaches great importance to "The Myth". The moment the theme song was released, the OST and the music video for the story were also arranged.

Netizens were already looking forward to this drama, and now that the video footage is available, they certainly won't miss it. Since they're going to listen to it anyway, they might as well watch and listen at the same time.

A song that transcends time, a love story spanning a thousand years—everyone clicked on it without hesitation.

The black playback interface of the music video slowly unfolds. As the buffer disappears, the prelude to "Crossing" is like a wisp of wind leaking from a crack in time, instantly entering the audience's ears.

The scene doesn't begin with people, but rather with a beam of modern white light switching back and forth between a rapidly turning old bamboo scroll, creating a striking contrast.

"It was destined in my past life, I can't escape this fate..."

Chi Leying's ethereal female voice rang out, like an ancient prophecy, followed by a drumbeat, and the scene immediately transitioned to Yi Xiaochuan falling from a great height into ancient times.

The timing of this particular moment was so precise it sent chills down my spine; the feeling of weightlessness, as if being "pushed" by the music into another dimension, was incredibly real.

The song continues: "Awakening from a dream, the past and present are reversed."

The scene shows Qi Yuan's bewildered face as he awakens in the Qin Dynasty. The editing rhythm perfectly matches the subtle electronic beats of the music, creating a very comfortable audiovisual experience.

Zhang Lingye's rap part is professionally relevant and quite pleasant to listen to.

The song is great, and the visuals are perfectly synchronized. Comments are already popping up: "Give the editor a bonus!" "300% audio-visual synchronization."

Seeing this, Yu Weicai breathed a sigh of relief. A good opening theme song depends not only on the song itself, but also on the post-production. How many songs in the industry have been ruined by amazing opening themes?

When the audio and video are synchronized well, the opening theme song can play its greatest role.

"I play the zither for you, and you dance with graceful shadows."

Endless stream
I believe a miracle will happen.

When this lyric, full of classical imagery, appears, the female protagonist, Yu Shu, makes her official entrance. In front of a magnificent palace pavilion, a woman in ancient costume wearing a flowing robe stands with her back to the camera, her water sleeves fluttering gently.

Just as the words "light shadow" transformed into an upward melody, she suddenly turned around.

Holy crap!

The audience couldn't help but gasp in front of their screens; the shock of that turn of the head was twofold.

First, Lin Yi's pure and refined appearance and temperament perfectly match the sense of destiny that transcends a thousand years in the song; second, the details of her clothing and makeup.

In high-definition quality, the brocade texture of the clothing, the warm luster of the jade hairpin in the hair, and even the light makeup painted in the ancient style between the eyebrows and eyes are all clearly discernible.

In period dramas, costumes, makeup, and props are always an essential element. Just looking at this one scene, regardless of the plot of "The Myth," the costumes, makeup, and props are definitely up to standard.

Before the chorus, there's a brief build-up section where the music speeds up and incorporates more electronic elements, as if energy is gathering.

"Crossing through the sea of ​​people"
Waiting for an answer

A scar remains as it pierces through memories.

As the duet begins, the emotional intensity surges dramatically, and the music video features textbook-perfect "time-lapse" editing: the male lead sits quietly on a mountaintop, having weathered many storms, while the female lead dances alone in a palace.

The scene, which should be the most emotionally intense, is tragically separated from the male and female leads, leading netizens to speculate about what happened in the story. Surely it can't be... a tragedy?
After careful consideration, everyone felt that it probably wasn't the case. "Goodbye Mr. Loser" had a happy ending, and Yu Wei shouldn't be the type to create tragic scenes.

Editing techniques, it must be editing techniques!

"traversed a thousand years"
White hair

Crossing over to true love

Let us tell a beautiful myth.

This melody is incredibly catchy and is definitely the core of the song, which is perfectly demonstrated in the music video.

Yi Xiaochuan was dressed in dark Qin army armor, surrounded by a forest of spears and halberds, his horse's hooves kicking up clouds of dust, clearly leading his troops into battle.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the war scenes in "The Myth" are a large-scale production. In an era where many war scenes are filmed using green screen CG, such large-scale live-action scenes can only be described as extravagant.

"Wow, a real circus scene, it's so captivating!"

"I can't stand it anymore, I'm going to become a member just for 'The Myth'."

"I'd say this one shot alone surpasses all the ancient costume dramas of recent years, no objections, right?"

Seeing this, netizens couldn't contain themselves any longer. They wanted to watch "The Myth" right now. Six days to go, what's the difference between that and six years?
As the final syllable of "passing on a beautiful myth" fades away with a long, lingering echo, the image finally freezes.

Everyone's excitement was palpable. They were so lucky to have a new TV series right after watching "Goodbye Mr. Loser."

If Yu Wei could be more prolific, they could seamlessly switch between watching this and that, and then watch this again. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
Just thinking about it makes netizens incredibly happy, so what else is there to say but urge for more updates!

Everyone's appetite had been whetted by the opening theme song, but little did they know that this was just the beginning.

The following day at the same time, the ending theme song "Beautiful Myth" was officially released. It included everything from the opening to the ending, and the brand-new story-driven music video once again attracted everyone's attention.

Netizens are familiar with this song; "Beautiful Myth" is the theme song for the movie version of The Myth. Is this a reuse of the song?

They only realized it was a rewritten version when they clicked on the music video.

Yu Wei arranged a more suitable version for the TV series, after all, reincarnation and time travel are two different concepts... Who wouldn't say he's dedicated after seeing this?
This version features a duet between the male and female leads. In comparison, Lin Yi, an actress, has only average singing skills, while Qi Yuan is undoubtedly the one who takes the lead.

After listening to Zhang Lingye's songs, and then his brother-in-law's songs, the netizens were really satisfied with the two songs. Yu Wei is really biased towards his own people, even arranging new songs for his actors.

These two songs are just average as music on their own, but they're absolutely amazing when paired with the visuals. It's all about the atmosphere!
One song a day, the more you listen, the better it gets; everyone is already eagerly waiting for tomorrow.

By this time, netizens had completely shaken off the influence of the singers from "Renai Circulation." They weren't familiar with "Renai Circulation," and they were afraid of being misled by "Myth."

I'm so happy here, I don't miss home at all.

Just as netizens were eagerly awaiting the premiere of the TV series, the third interlude arrived as scheduled—"The Myth of Stars and Moon," which was the song that Yu Wei was most optimistic about.

When Tong Yulu's sweet, clear, delicate, and moving voice rang out, everyone was completely captivated.

Forget about "Renai Circulation," all they know is "The most romantic moment of my life was meeting you..."

Enough with the Japanese girls, we Chinese entertainment industry have our own great girls too! (End of Chapter)
