I'm not just a director

In the next few days, all the marketing of Starfire Entertainment revolved around the new album "Hello, Huaxia".

The publicity of the Beijing Traffic Radio Station made Zhou Peng popular in the Beijing-Tianjin area.

Because Jiang Pei'an is a topical character, the new album is gradually coming out of the circle to let more audiences know.

At the same time, Su Qing cooperated with Shen Yongge to start an all-round exposure through advance channels.

TV stations, variety shows, and character interviews are all arranged, and Su Qing is even more busy.

But Sister Su Yu is enjoying it. Compared with the leisure time a while ago, she is only satisfied with the intensive work now.

This is another strong woman.

Jiang Pei'an didn't accompany Zhou Peng for TV stations and variety shows.

In addition to the promotion of the movie "Source Code", the special effects shooting of "Inception" has been proceeding in an orderly manner.

Although the opening ceremony has not yet been held, the various shooting plans and physical modeling in the early stage still cannot be left behind.

After all, this thing is really time-consuming.

In order to create a sense of reality in the dream and make the audience feel like they are on the scene, the entire special effects team is racking their brains for research.

First of all, the most widely used is the surround shooting technology.

Take a full shot with the camera around an actor or a specific object.

It presents the realistic feeling of the actors walking in the illusory space.

And this kind of technology requires the use of high-end equipment and sophisticated post-production to achieve a true three-dimensional moving effect.

In addition, this technology also includes the fine adjustment of parameters such as light, angle, and speed during shooting, so as to place the characters in a meaningful environment.

Although the actors have not yet been filmed, these pre-shooting preparations have made the entire team scratch their heads.

A complete building is presented to the audience through surround shooting, which breaks through the inherent framework of traditional film shooting while creating a more realistic feeling.

In addition, the surround shooting also makes the action scenes of the film more visually impactful.

For example, in the car accident scene, the panoramic shooting makes the audience feel as if they are on the scene, feeling the same sense of crisis and speed as the protagonist.

This shooting method not only improves the visual effect of the film, but also enhances the audience's understanding of the internal logical relationship of the film.

One thing, though, is that wraparound shoots require a lot of investment.

For example, the cost of scenes, construction, cameras, etc. is higher than traditional shooting.

This also makes it not suitable for all types of movies.

Therefore, in this era, it is destined to be a sideshow only for blockbuster movies.

Of course, while creating a more realistic feeling, it also inspired more new attempts in film production and improved the level of film production technology.

This is a very good thing for the development of the entire industry.

Jiang Pei'an spent every day in non-stop meetings and discussing the shooting plan.

The crew has also successively determined the location of the major scenes.

Jiang Pei'an wanted to show the beautiful geographical features of China through "Inception".

Such as Tibet, Xinjiang, and the three eastern provinces.

Of course, some foreign scenes are also involved.

So during this period, the entire crew was divided into several groups and went to various places to scout the scene and choose the shooting location.

Jiang Pei'an himself also set off with a team to Tibet.

Since the scene from the original film was already in his mind, Jiang Pei'an gave a more detailed description of the general scene before the various scouting teams set off.

Even asked the storyboard artist to draw the content of some scenes for the staff's reference.

Therefore, everyone's trip to the scene went smoothly, and they chose a suitable shooting location without too many twists and turns.

11 month 20 number.

Beijing Big Banyan Tree Video Store.

There was a queue in front of the store early in the morning.

Although he had already prepared in his heart, the boss was still taken aback.

As the owner of a video store that has been open for more than ten years, Li Kai has a certain understanding of when singers release new albums.

He still vividly remembers the grand occasion when Hong Kong singer Ren Xianqi released his album two years ago.

That is a singer at the level of a king. Once the album was released, it attracted countless fans to scramble for it.

He didn't plan to stock up on the album "Hello, Huaxia".

After all, this is a rookie singer with no previous record, let alone fame.

The owner of an audio-visual store also depends on the reaction of the market when purchasing goods. When the channel dealer called Li Kai, his first reaction was:
How big a splash can a singer who has never released an album make in the market?
However, when he heard the live broadcast of Beijing Radio Station, his thoughts changed completely.

There is no other reason, the famous returning director Jiang Pei'an is actually the producer of this album.

For this reason alone, it is worth him to stock up in large quantities.

As the owner of a video store, he thinks he is sure about the music scene.

Once the theme song of "Love Has an Afterlife" was released, many fans came to his store to inquire.

It's a pity that this song is the theme song of the movie and has not been circulated in the market.

Since then, Li Kai has noticed this young man named director, but a guest actor, singer, and songwriter.

Afterwards, Li Kai posted information about Jiang Pei'an on the Internet.

I don't know if I don't check it, but I was shocked when I checked it. It turns out that this person is so famous on the Internet and has many fans.

Therefore, when Li Kai heard the live broadcast of Beijing Radio Station, he discovered a business opportunity.

The album produced by Jiang Pei'an will definitely sell well.

Even if he only appears in the album as the creator!
So, he frantically purchased from dealers.

Sure enough, Jiang Pei'an did not disappoint him.

There was such a long line in front of the store early in the morning, which proved that the influence of this album was beyond his imagination!
"Everyone line up, don't be crowded, yes, don't jump in line, come one by one, there are too many in the store!"

Li Kai was trying his best to maintain order, but the scene was chaotic and extremely noisy.

"Boss, here's a piece of "Hello, Huaxia"."

"Boss, there is Jiang Pei'an who wrote lyrics, yes, that is the album that was promoted on "Happy Camp", do you have any here?"

"Boss, I want ten copies of Zhou Peng's "Hello, Huaxia"!"

Many people reported the name of "Hello, Huaxia", but there were also some who couldn't get the name, and bought the album only based on the picture of a certain variety show in their impression.

Li Kai received them politely one by one. Facing the customers who bought many "Hello, Huaxia" albums, Li Kai had to smile politely:

"Sorry, but each of us is limited to three copies of this album."

"Limit to purchase three tickets? It's not a good thing for you to do business like this. Forget it, give me three tickets!"

After a busy morning, all the albums in the store were sold out, and some people even left their phone numbers and planned to sell them when they arrived.

"Failure!"

Seeing many customers returning empty-handed, Li Kai was annoyed.

At the same time, "Hello, Huaxia" is currently on sale in major supermarkets across the country.

The customers who came to buy were men and women, old and young. It was hard to believe that this was an album that had never been released before.

A situation where a new artist's debut album is on sale.

"Support Director Jiang, support Hualiu!"

"Chinese style, music that every Chinese must listen to!"

"Boycott Japanese and Korean music, China has its own Chinese style."

Not only is it hot offline, but there is also all kinds of support online.

After many people bought the album back, they put it in their VCD or tape recorder to listen to it immediately.

It was also from this time that people had a specific concept of Huaxia style.

This is our unique song in China. It turns out that we also have our own characteristics.

It's not the sad slow songs or strong songs like Japan and South Korea, this kind of eloquent singing seems to touch people's hearts more.

In just one week, four songs from the album "Hello, Huaxia" ranked in the top ten of Huaxia Original Singers Chart.

This is an unimaginably excellent result for any rookie singer.

It can be said that Zhou Peng has completely gained a foothold in the Chinese music scene with the performance of this "Hello, Huaxia".

It is also from this album that many people know that Huaxia also has a singer named "Zhou Peng".

"Fuck, you may not believe me, but I was really fascinated by this singer named Zhou Peng.

Her voice is really nice, and only her voice can perfectly interpret this kind of Huaxia style songs! "

"One thing to say, I went for Director Jiang at first, but I didn't expect this singer named Zhou Peng to surprise me."

"Not to mention anything else, director Jiang's composition and lyrics, coupled with Zhou Peng's singing, definitely made Chinese style songs popular.

It is worthy of being the silver medalist of the CCTV Young Singer Contest, support Zhou Peng! "

……

"Pengpeng, these are all letters from fans, please read them carefully."

Su Qing came to Zhou Peng with two security guards, each carrying a large bag of things.

"President Su, what is this?"

Looking at the two sacks, Zhou Peng was a little dazed.

"These are all letters from your fans."

Su Qing said with a smile.

"Ah, so many? Do I have to reply?"

Zhou Peng asked in disbelief.

Su Qing smiled, patted Zhou Peng on the shoulder and said:
"You are a rookie singer, you can't let your fans down.

You can't be proud just because you have a small achievement now, please reply well.

There will be a commercial performance the day after tomorrow, remember to keep in good shape. "

Hearing that there was a commercial performance, Zhou Peng was very excited and said:
"What type of commercial performance, Miss Qingqing?"

Su Qing touched her chin and said:
"In the live press conference of a certain brand, you used to only need to sing three songs."

In fact, after Zhou Peng became popular, countless cooperation invitations flew into Starfire Entertainment.

Su Qing reviewed all these invitations one by one, and all the weddings and weddings passed by one by one.

Although these big money paid a lot of money, to be honest, it is a bit cheap to participate in such an event.

Zhou Peng's fame, which he managed to earn now, cannot be ruined because of short-term short-sightedness.

"Okay, I will definitely prepare well!"

Zhou Peng said excitedly.

This is the first commercial performance in her life. To be honest, it's a bit like a dream.

You know, a month ago, or before the release of the album "Hello, Huaxia", she was still a little transparent existence.

Although she imagined that the album would cause a sensation in the music industry after its release, she never imagined such an achievement.

The sales volume of the album is increasing steadily. According to the statistics of Spark Entertainment, her album sales volume is almost the same as that of singers in the same period.

That's not even...

Any public figure who suddenly becomes popular will definitely check his name secretly on the Internet.

Zhou Peng is no exception.

When she typed her name into the search box, she was surprised to find that she had a fan club in an online forum.

Clicking into the forum, many fans are discussing their albums.

Even when comparing which song is the best, a chain of contempt appeared for an album...

With anxiety, Zhou Peng posted a post in his fan club forum:
"Hello everyone, I am Zhou Peng, a singer under Starfire Entertainment. Thank you for your love. I will work harder in the future."

After posting the post, Zhou Peng sat beside the computer happily waiting for a reply.

As a result, half an hour later, there was still no reply.

When Zhou Peng was about to give up, someone suddenly replied:
"Hi Zhou Peng, I'm your boss, Jiang Pei'an, who told you to fish during work, and if you don't work hard, your bonus will be deducted!"

Seeing this reply, Zhou Peng wanted to cry but had no tears.

What is this!

Her boss, Jiang Pei'an, is still on a field trip, so how could he be online!
This pure netizen is a spoof!
But I didn't expect that after this netizen's spoofed reply, there was a long queue under the post:

"I'm Su Qing, Zhou Peng, why do you fish at work?"

"I'm Ninghao. I didn't expect Zhou Peng to be so idle, and you can fish?"

"I'm Han Shanping, and Jiang Pei'an is sitting in my office. He asked me to warn you not to touch fish during work."

"I'm……"

Zhou Peng didn't expect that his post would attract such a group of sand sculpture netizens, and he couldn't laugh or cry for a while.

……

After Jiang Pei'an returned from viewing the scene, it has already entered the second half of November.

The weather in Beijing began to become dry and cold after November.

The north wind was howling, and people on the street had already changed from short-sleeved to long-sleeved jackets.

"Brother Gao, the scenic spots have been finalized, and the preparatory work has almost been completed.

It's all up to you from now on, I may have to get busy here! "

Jiang Pei'an smiled at Gao Chengsheng.

"Ham, it's up to you to say, Director Han has already arranged for me.

You don't have to worry about "Inception" here, and you can work on "Source Code" with peace of mind. "

Gao Chengsheng patted Jiang Pei'an on the shoulder and said.

From November 25th, the third trailer of "Source Code" will be released.

As the release date of "Source Code" gets closer and closer, fans have also started to party.

Fans from all over the world have held countdown events online in advance.

"Support Director Jiang!"

"For the sci-fi movie, Director Jiang, come on!"

"There are still three days until the release of "Source Code"!"

Not only the spontaneous support of netizens, but also some portal websites and print media reported the release of "Source Code".

The joy of New Year's Day is mixed with fans' expectations for "Source Code", and it comes to the world in such a mighty and naked way.
