Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 151 Agree to Shoot
The music market in each region has its own characteristics. The Asian market represented by China, Japan and South Korea sees a short-term explosion, and album sales often determine life and death in the first month.

The sales of new albums in the Japanese market can often explode to 300 million in the first month of release, but after that, the sales will drop off a cliff, and then the sales will be flat.

South Korea is even more exaggerated, one week, two weeks at most can decide the life and death of a new album.

It is impossible to think about long-term sales.

The basic model of the Chinese market is similar to that of Japan. The first month's sales accounted for the majority of new albums, but the domestic record market is not as big as Japan's, and the sales volume in the first month will not exceed 300 million.

However, Zhang Yuanjun's new album can digest the 13 pre-sale within a week, which is enough to shock the music world.

Now the main force in the Chinese music scene will still be Hong Kong and Taiwan singers, especially the young generation. None of the young mainland singers can compete with Jay Chou, Jolin Tsai and others.

Li Yuchun, who has high expectations, will not release a film until the second half of next year.

Now a 21-year-old boy's first album is released and sells 10 copies in a week. This sales volume is a very good result even for Jay Chou and others.

After the first week's sales were released, Zhang Yuanjun didn't need to run by himself, and various media took the initiative to report.

"Of course I'm happy." Zhang Yuanjun was interviewed by the media at the backstage of the event. When he talked about the album's impressive sales, his joy was beyond words. "In the past few days, I have met many enthusiastic fans. I am very grateful for their support."

Zhang Yuanjun's currently released works are only one "Guihai Yidao". It can be said that this music album has completely attracted and consolidated a large number of fans for Zhang Yuanjun.

"Wang Lihong's "Heroes of the World" will be released soon, who do you think will sell better between the two albums?" Very straightforward question.

Zhang Yuanjun didn't accept the offer: "I'm a fan of Wang Lihong. I will definitely buy one of his albums. As for whose album sells best, let the market decide. I'm a newcomer, so how can I predict sales."

At the end of 05 and the beginning of 06, the music market became extremely lively because Zhang Yuanjun and Wang Lihong released a film together.

The film market is also lively, but it is not a good thing.

Zhang Yimou, who returned to literary films, delivered a pretty good result. "Riding a Thousand Miles Alone" had a box office of 1200 million in the first week.

I want to emphasize again, a literary film, "Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles" is a literary film, and it has 1200 million in the first week, which is really very good.Even if the director is Zhang Yimou.

The first day of "Love Epilepsy" reached 200 million, which reached Huayi's expectations, but the word-of-mouth polarized.

The highlight of the Lunar New Year file is still "The Promise", and "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun" completely detonated the Internet.

The viral spread has seriously affected the audience's viewing choices.

The number of downloads of the "Mantou" short film has surpassed that of "The Promise".

After the new year, Chen Kaige finally couldn't sit still, and scolded the author of "Mantou": "People can't be so shameless!"

The newspaper scolded "The Promise", but the crew did not respond.

Xu Jinglei and Han Han scolded "The Promise", but the crew did not respond.

The audience said on the Internet that they could not understand "The Promise", but the crew still did not respond.

Why did Director Chen and his wife react so strongly when a female reporter who had just debuted asked a question if the box office fell short of expectations?

Why did director Chen get so annoyed when an unknown person edited an entertainment video, and scolded him for being shameless?

Although "Mantou" is a funny and playful work, it also reveals the shortcomings of "The Promise": the relationship between characters is chaotic, the logic of action is not self-consistent, some art is designed for design, and the whole story cannot convince the audience.

The box office of "The Promise" officially exceeded 1.6 million after the New Year's Day holiday.

It is still halfway to the 3 million box office that the film studio planned, but Zhang Yuanjun knows that "The Promise" is exhausted, and its achievements will stop here.

However, the current results are enough for "The Promise" to sit firmly at the box office champion in 2005.

Taking the author of "Mantou" to court intensified the carnival of netizens.

Even Zhang Yuanjun told Luo Jin in private: "He doesn't cut well, if I let me cut it, I can make flowers."

Director Chen couldn't shoot at the netizens who gave him bad reviews indiscriminately, so in a panic, he responded with words: "No one will understand "The Promise" within five years."

pale and weak.

As soon as Laba was over, Zhang Yuanjun came back from Wandao.

The most intense stage of promoting the new album is over, and he can finally rest.

16 days after the release of the new album, 43 copies were sold in mainland China!

Bay Island was launched for 3 days, and the sales volume also successfully exceeded [-].

70 in the first month is not a problem, and annual sales of one million is not impossible.

Mai Tian is already thinking about holding a concert for Zhang Yuanjun.

Why can't you hold a concert with millions of sales?
What's wrong with an album, an album can still be done!

Wang Lihong's album, which was released a week later, also performed well. After all, it is a veteran singer. The sales volume of "Heroes of the World" in one week has caught up with Zhang Yuanjun's sales volume in three weeks, and it is slightly lower, reaching 45 copies.

On the 9th, Monday, Zhang Yuanjun got news from his subordinates when he first arrived at the studio.

Yingyi Entertainment agreed to the studio's investment in "Big Diamond".

"We invested 180 million and got 40.12% of the quota."

"Andy Lau is still worried about the risks of this film."

"Yes, we were talking in Pengcheng, and Andy Lau didn't show up the whole time, he was replaced by someone from his company."

"Okay, 40 is 40, this film can't lose money." Zhang Yuanjun didn't have any special plots for "Big Diamond", and only regarded it as a project that could make money.

"How is "Animal World" going?" Zhang Yuanjun asked, they are mainly busy with the preparation of "Animal World" during this time.

"The screenwriter has already started writing the script, and the art team has already started work." Because it is a comic adaptation, there is no need for Zhang Yuanjun to intervene to provide an outline in advance.

Although the script is outsourced, if it fails the acceptance check, it still has to be revised one draft after another.

"We found three special effects teams, Hong Kong Xiantao and Wankuan, and China Film's Hualong Digital. We originally wanted to find Koreans with more advanced technology, but the price for digital creativity was too high, and we couldn't bargain much, so we gave up.

"The special effects director is Wang Jianxiong of Hualong Digital."

Zhang Yuanjun nodded and agreed to such a plan.

Digital creative technology is more advanced, but this does not mean that Xiantao + Wankuan + Hualong Digital will not do well.

The lesson of "The Promise" is right in front of us, so Zhang Yuanjun decided to personally grasp the art and special effects team.

You can't change the requirements casually, otherwise Weta Digital + Industrial Light & Magic will do special effects for you, which is also at the level of [-] cents.

Also benefiting from the original comics, the design work of the art team is more efficient.

Zhang Yuanjun was very clear about what he wanted, and he told Wang Jianxiong his needs very clearly. Coupled with the sketches that had been drawn, Wang Jianxiong led the special effects team to work very smoothly.

In the design industry, Party A who does not change his needs is not only a father, but a living ancestor!
Not changing the requirements saves time and money for Party A, and saves time and effort for the designer if the requirements are clear and not changed midway.

Also on the same day, the filing record of a movie called "Rock Paper Scissors" was exposed by the media.

Record unit: Zhang Yuanjun's studio.

Filing result: Agree to shoot.

　early.
