China Entertainment: Starting from 07 Kuainan

Chapter 473 Breaking the Circle and Cooperating
Yanjing Olympic Sports Center.

The annual Chinese Song Chart Award Ceremony was held again. Compared with last year, this year’s Chinese Song Chart has undergone significant changes.

The Chinese Song Chart even changed its name, from the Yanjing Pop Music Awards Ceremony to the Chinese Pop Music Awards Ceremony.

The criticized classification selection method for mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan has also been changed.

Instead, there are four general categories: [Album of the Year], [Song of the Year], [Production of the Year], and [Newcomer of the Year], as well as four major categories: [Pop], [Rock], [Folk], and [R&B].

The selection rules for awards such as [Newcomer of the Year] and [Song of the Year] have also changed.

Radio points + album sales have become key factors.

Previously, when the nomination list was announced, the outside world was still surprised that they could not understand the radio station points. After all, the China Song Chart started with radio station data.

Where do album sales come from?

Alien?
Although Xingwaixing also publishes album sales lists every year, the lists they publish are only albums sold by their agents.

In addition to some artists from the Bay Area, basically all singers from the mainland and Hong Kong who are active in the music scene are here.

Deng Ziqi and Yang Zongwei are the best cases.

Mainland China is the focus of our work.

Wu Yuetian, who was originally determined to attend, has now decided not to attend. In addition to them, some Wanwan artists who were originally scheduled to participate have also canceled their schedules.

The three variety shows "The Voice", "I Am a Singer" and "Looking for the Light" are aimed at newcomers, veteran singers and independent musicians respectively.

Although the 'Golden Melody Awards' did not say anything clearly, the organizers have put pressure on Wanwan artists through various channels and are not allowed to participate in the mainland's [Chinese Song Chart] selection.

It turned out to be a premeditated plan!
In this regard, the [Golden Melody Awards] had the most violent reaction.

Before joining The Voice, the two of them were already well-known in Wanwan and Xiangjiang, but at that time, neither the record company nor the singers themselves made much money.

It has to be said that the 'threat' is useful.

This completely proves the saying, 'If you are indifferent to me today, you will be unable to reach your heights tomorrow'.

Li Huizhen, Tian Zhen, Wu Tong, Xue Qianqian and Lin Zhixuan, who became famous with "Singer", are making money like crazy. Who is not jealous?
The "Looking for Light" project has also made a number of independent musicians popular.

Now, the competition quota for the second season of "I Am a Singer" has become a hot commodity.

It wasn't until [Galaxy Music] released the chart data that the outside world finally understood why the 'China Song Chart' was revised.

Singers such as JJ Lin, Wang Lihong, Milk Cha Lun, Zhang Huimei, Sun Yanzi, solo career Tian Fuzhen, Su Dalu, BY2, Dai Penni, Xiao Qi Ge, Yang Zongwei, Chen Xiaodong, Luo Zhixiang, Pan Weibo and other singers who debuted in Wanwan have also been given The organizer came to the scene.

They desperately need to branch out.

Some big-name singers may not care because they won't participate in those variety shows anyway, but the same cannot be said for the record companies behind the singers.

At this moment, both the singer and the record company understand a truth.

The local market is too small.

But the Golden Melody Awards cannot cover the sky with one hand.

This year's [Chinese Song Chart] has an unprecedented number of guests, with more than 200 singers from across the Taiwan Strait and three places, plus a hundred behind-the-scenes musicians, all present.

Two levels of reversal!

At last.

Some well-informed people have already received rumors in advance that this [Chinese Song Chart] will be the last one.

The next [Chinese Song Chart] will have a major update.

The organizer changed from Yanjing Radio and Television Station to the Music Association, National Satellite Music Broadcasting Association, Penguin Music, Kugou Music, Qiandu, and Galaxy Music.

Jointly organized by multiple parties.

Officially approved, privately hosted.

Anyone who knows the inside story knows how difficult it is.

Some fast-moving brands have consulted Galaxy Music and are preparing to purchase naming rights.

however.

There will be no naming ceremony for next year's awards ceremony.

Sponsorship is welcome.

Naming?

Can't. Boss Lu’s original intention in organizing this award was not to make money. He really doesn’t like the little money from the title.

……

3pm.

The red carpet ceremony began, and the media and fans waiting on both sides were looking forward to it.

The moment the first group of people showed up, there was an exclamation of surprise.

Cheng Long + Luo Dayou.

This pairing is really surprising.

Especially Luo Dayou.

In fact, this year's red carpet is considered a small case, and next year's [Chinese Song Chart] awards ceremony will be the real event.

Lu Yuan would invite musicians from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places, including the ancient masters who were active in the 1980s and 1980s, in front of and behind the scenes.

As a judge.

In order to do this, Lu Yuan owed a lot of favors.

Favor debts are the hardest to repay.

Star Media will also cooperate with Hong Kong and Taiwan circles on some projects in the future.

of course.

Cooperation is cooperation.

Can we cooperate, how should we cooperate, or should we follow the process.

The upcoming project "Wushuang" will be Star Media's first cooperation with the Hong Kong industry.

As early as 08, Zhuang Wenqiang wrote the outline of the script for "Wushuang", but it was not easy to sell the script at that time.

It was not until last year that Zhuang Wenqiang perfected the script.

However, whether the script is good or not and whether it can be filmed are two different things.

The subject matter of "Wushuang" is relatively sensitive and there are many big action scenes, so it requires a lot of investment.

If Zhuang Wenqiang is willing to just be a screenwriter, there will be no shortage of investors.

After all, the "Infernal Affairs" series, "Initial D", "Search", and the "Eavesdropping" series are all his screenwriting works.

But Zhuang Wenqiang insisted on being the director himself.

The screenwriter turned director. The investment is huge, the subject matter is sensitive, but he is not willing to save money for filming. With multiple buffs stacked together, there are only a handful of people willing to invest.

Then, "Wushuang" was pushed to Star Media.

Everyone in the film and television industry knows who is standing behind Xingchen Media. With Xingchen Media intervening, the probability of the script passing review is extremely high.

"Big Shot" can pass the review, isn't "Wushuang" easy to catch?
The same is true.

Star Media revised part of the plot, and "Wushuang" passed the review.

Led by Star Media, investment was quickly received.

The total investment is 1.8 million.

Unit: RMB.

The director is Zhuang Wenqiang, which has not changed, nor has his favorite starring actor Aaron Kwok.

The boss of the counterfeiting group codenamed 'Painter' has changed.

Not Fa Ge.

Lu Yuan didn't interfere too much in the specific casting. As long as they were mainland actors, it didn't matter whether they were artists from Star Media or not.

Because there are no male artists under Star Media that fit the personality.

Xu Zheng, Wang Qianyuan and Deng Chao are not suitable to play the role of "painter". Qin Hao has a chance, but the age difference between him and Guo Tianwang is too big.

Even if Guo Tianwang is well-maintained, the age difference of more than ten years can easily cause drama for the audience.

Having cooperated with Star Media many times, Wang Jinsong, who played the role of 'Yang Jinshui' in "Ming Dynasty 1566", is more suitable.
