The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1775 is not just that
After the release of "Spider-Man 2", "Anson Mania" swept the world, and its popularity has surpassed that of Leonardo DiCaprio. It has made headlines more than once and sparked widespread discussion. It has swept across newspapers, television and the internet, truly opening a new chapter in the history of global superstars.

Imagine that even someone with a striking resemblance to Anson could land an advertising endorsement – ​​what kind of phenomenon is that?
Any item bearing Anson's face instantly doubles in value, even sparking fierce competition in the secondhand market and driving prices high.

Someone once half-jokingly said that even a plain A4 sheet of paper, printed with Anson's portrait, could easily sell for a thousand dollars.

Absolute violence.

Even pirated versions are no exception; worldwide, Anson's face appears on all sorts of strange and wonderful items, testing people's imaginations.

Everything is true, 100% accurate.

Even "fashion" magazine was no exception. This authoritative magazine, which holds a unique and transcendent position in the fashion and entertainment industries, had a different sales volume for the issue featuring Anson's styling. It far outsold other magazines by a wide margin and even sold two or three times more copies than other magazines without Anson's images.

And now, an official, formal album actually contains a set of Anson's photos? And it's an Anson I've never seen before?

The market has gone completely into a frenzy.

Shortly after, when "Dawn Breaks" was officially launched in the global market, everyone inside and outside the industry finally experienced firsthand the overwhelming heat of "global superstar commercial influence," rendering all other noises meaningless and bringing a shock that swept across the market with overwhelming force.

In Asia, especially in East Asian regions such as China, Japan, and Korea, the level and scale of the fanatical fans are simply unimaginable.

Buying ten albums at once? Twenty?

They're like small fry compared to big fish, completely ignorant of the world. Here, the levels are completely different. Buying 100 copies at once is just the beginning. The sight of people buying 300 or 500 copies at a time with a shopping cart is unbelievable. This isn't buying albums, it's like buying cement and building materials, dragging piles of them out of the record store.

It's spectacular!

Not to mention the trolls and haters, even Warner Music itself was dumbfounded and completely bewildered, not understanding what had happened.

Clearly, neither Blair nor Karen realized the frenzy they had stirred up; they were simply immersed in joy.

"what!"

After paying the bill, all my pocket money for the entire month was gone. My empty wallet had never felt so light, but my mood was the best in the world. It was as if I had just landed on the moon. An indescribable happiness and joy filled my chest and kept gushing out, and adrenaline rushed into my heart.

"Ahhh!"

Cheers, jumps, sprints, chasing each other, Blair and Karen screamed as they rushed out of the record store, expressing their ecstasy with every movement of their bodies.

But even after leaving the record store, Blair lingered at the entrance, reluctant to leave. He looked back at the store through the long queue, the behind-the-scenes footage still playing on the television screen.

It's not just the behind-the-scenes footage of the performance we just saw; it also includes behind-the-scenes footage of the music video production, album recording, and album photoshoots.

Clearly, this is a packaged video, not just a few minutes long.

Warner Music later gave it their approval, and the entire video, which is 93 minutes long, covers all the behind-the-scenes production details of the album.

Among them, the most special part is the content of Anson's personal design of the album packaging. The whole process is recorded, and you can clearly see the entire process from scratch. It includes not only the brainstorming and inspiration collision, but also the process of Anson personally hand-drawing sketches and designing fonts, leaving no detail unattended.

It's about the length of a movie, not only rich but also substantial.

Blair had no idea that the entire video was so long, but she could vaguely sense that something was amiss, and she stood rooted to the spot, unable to move.

She wanted to watch it all. But Karen was already bursting with excitement.

Seeing Blair standing there reluctantly, gazing affectionately at the TV screen with a look of longing, Karen simply opened the album on the spot.

Karen had just opened an album and only scanned it briefly, but now she can finally browse through it in detail, like Indiana Jones opening a treasure chest.

"Oh, why is there another CD here? Is it a packaging error? I knew it! That's why the album was so thick, it's a double CD."

Karen stood there muttering to herself. Blair caught the key words, turned around abruptly, and looked at her with a look of astonishment.

"What? Double CD? You mean, a twelve-dollar album is a double CD?"

Physical albums have high production costs, and the prices of single-disc and double-disc albums are vastly different. Although the price of a double-disc album is not necessarily twice that of a single-disc album, there is no doubt that the prices are different; if the album contains more content, the price may increase further.

Clearly, they just bought "Dawn Breaks," which was the price of a single disc. Could there be a hidden surprise in the album?

Karen handed the album to Blair. "Look, it's just two CDs, front and back."

Blair examined it carefully. "Ah, this is a behind-the-scenes video disc!"

At this moment, the behind-the-scenes footage that was playing on TV was all included in the album, and it was free!
Logically speaking, Warner Music had no reason to miss the opportunity to make more money. They could have released a DVD set of behind-the-scenes videos and made another fortune. Even though the videos had already spread throughout the United States, die-hard fans wouldn't mind paying for the DVDs as a keepsake.

However, Warner Music did not!

This was a complete loss! The "Dawn Breaks" album in my hand suddenly felt incredibly valuable.

Blair stared wide-eyed at Karen, a terrifying thought flashing through his mind, "Wait, Anson isn't going to pay for it himself, is he?"

Karen: ...

After a moment's hesitation, Karen tentatively asked, "But Warner Music and Anson haven't promoted it much, so is this part of the album's surprise?"

Blair paused, then exclaimed: "That's possible!"
Karen continued, "Besides the photos, there are also hidden tracks here."

"sunflower"!
Blair exclaimed in surprise. The tracks weren't listed on the back cover of the album, but once the album was opened, the hidden tracks were clearly found in the lyrics list inside.

Hurala!
The surrounding crowd surged forward instantly, each one and a half becoming extremely excited.

"Sunflowers too? That's great!"

"Ahhh, I was worried they wouldn't include it, but I didn't expect them to."

"As expected, Anson is the most perfect. Even if you only buy one album, you can get everything."

"No, no, I have to get my hands on it as soon as possible, I'm so excited!"

"I was worried that if that song was included on the soundtrack, it wouldn't be included on the album, but thankfully it wasn't."

"What should I do? I'm so excited! My heart is about to jump out of my chest!"
