As Ling Yichen and Jun Moran's fame in the ancient entertainment industry soared, their commercial value also skyrocketed, leading to a flood of endorsement offers. Among them, a prestigious ancient-style clothing store extended an olive branch, hoping they would endorse their new ancient costume series, leveraging their influence and unique charm to promote this clothing culture imbued with profound classical charm.
Upon receiving the endorsement offer, both Ling Yichen and Jun Moran showed great interest. They knew that this was not only a business collaboration, but also an excellent opportunity to showcase the beauty of ancient costumes and spread traditional Chinese culture to the public. Therefore, they readily agreed and quickly devoted themselves to the preparations for the endorsement.
The preparation stage for the endorsement shoot began with the selection and fitting of the costumes. Inside the ancient-style clothing store, a dazzling array of exquisite ancient costumes was breathtaking. Each garment was like a spirit that had traveled through a thousand years, quietly telling stories and tales of ancient times. Ling Yichen and Jun Moran strolled among the garments, carefully selecting outfits that suited their own style and temperament.
Ling Yichen was drawn to a set of black, gold-embroidered, fitted clothing. The outfit, with its black silk base, featured intricate dragon patterns embroidered in gold thread on the collar and cuffs, exuding a mysterious and majestic aura. A wide red belt, inlaid with various gemstones, shimmered brilliantly under the light. Wearing this attire, Ling Yichen seemed to transform into a dashing ancient swordsman, heroic and imposing.
Jun Mo Ran had a particular fondness for a white robe. The robe was made of light, thin silk, soft and smooth to the touch. Exquisite landscape paintings were embroidered on the robe with pale blue silk thread, as if capturing the beauty of nature. Wearing it, holding a jade-ribbed fan, Jun Mo Ran exuded an elegant and refined air, like a gentle gentleman stepping out of an ancient painting.
During the fitting process, they communicated closely with the tailors at the clothing store, offering suggestions on alterations to the garments' details, striving to perfectly showcase their charm during the photoshoot. Based on their feedback, the tailors meticulously adjusted every detail, from the neckline size to the skirt length, from the density of the embroidery to the style of the belt, all undergoing repeated consideration and modification.
On the day of the shoot, the sun shone brightly and a gentle breeze blew. The shooting location was chosen in a classical garden. The garden's pavilions and towers were arranged in a harmonious and orderly manner, with artificial hills and ponds complementing each other. Shady trees and blooming flowers filled the air, exuding a rich classical charm and providing an excellent backdrop for the endorsement shoot.
Ling Yichen made his entrance first, standing in a small pavilion. Outside, a peach blossom grove was in full bloom, pink petals drifting in the breeze, a scene of dreamlike beauty. He wore a black, gold-embroidered outfit, his posture upright, his eyes resolute and profound. The photographer captured his figure from different angles; sometimes he drew his sword, pointing it to the sky, displaying the boldness and domineering spirit of a chivalrous knight; at other times he leaned against a pavilion pillar, tilting his head slightly back, eyes closed in contemplation, revealing a restrained depth and melancholy.
Jun Mo Ran then stepped into the frame, walking slowly along a winding path lined with neatly trimmed, lush green bushes. He wore a long white robe, its flowing fabric seemingly blending seamlessly with the garden's beauty. He paused on a stone bridge, bending slightly to gaze at the gently flowing stream below, his folding fan swaying softly, exuding an air of refined elegance. The photographer skillfully used light and angles to perfectly capture his gentle grace and refinement.
During the photoshoot, Ling Yichen and Jun Moran also needed to coordinate some couple looks. They stood facing each other on an open grassy field, Ling Yichen's black outfit contrasting sharply with Jun Moran's white robe, yet complementing each other perfectly. Sometimes they walked side-by-side, chatting and laughing, showcasing the tacit understanding and harmony between close friends; other times they gazed at each other, their eyes conveying a deep emotion and trust, as if enacting a moving story.
In addition to the static photoshoot, some dynamic displays were also arranged. Ling Yichen and Jun Moran ran and darted through the garden, their robes fluttering in the wind, showcasing the graceful beauty of ancient costumes in motion. They also performed some simple martial arts moves; Ling Yichen's swordsmanship was sharp and powerful, while Jun Moran's fan techniques were light and elegant. Their combined skills perfectly blended ancient style with martial arts elements, leaving the staff present in awe.
During breaks in filming, Ling Yichen and Jun Moran would share their knowledge and insights about ancient clothing culture with the staff. Ling Yichen said, "In ancient times, clothing was not just something to cover the body, but also a symbol of status, position, and culture. Different dynasties and different social classes had strict regulations and distinctions regarding the clothing they wore. These ancient costumes embody the wisdom and aesthetic concepts of the ancients, and we have a responsibility to inherit and promote them."
Jun Mo Ran nodded in agreement: "That's right. These exquisite embroideries, unique styles, and materials all reflect the craftsmanship and cultural characteristics of that time. Through this endorsement, I hope to let more people understand the ancient clothing culture and feel its charm."
With the filming of the endorsement shoot progressing smoothly, post-production work is also underway. Professional retouchers meticulously processed the photos, adjusting colors, contrast, and lighting effects to make them clearer and more aesthetically pleasing, highlighting the personal charm of Ling Yichen and Jun Moran, as well as the exquisite details of the period costumes. Simultaneously, the production team also filmed a promotional short film for the endorsement, featuring highlights from the filming process accompanied by melodious classical music, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.
