China Entertainment: Starting from 07 Kuainan

Chapter 492 Ka Er and Su Lun’s Movie
7 month 26 number.

The Billboard singles chart was updated, and "Perfect" moved from third place last week to second place.

According to the original timeline, the number one song at the moment should be "Call Me Maybe" by Quanmei, and the second number one is "Payphone" by Magic Red Band.

At that time, "payphone" could only rank second for five consecutive weeks when faced with the old-age songs of squatting girls.

Now, "Call Me Maybe" has been released in advance by Lu Yuan, although Quamei has also released a new song.

But the effect is nothing compared to "Call Me Maybe".

That new song is currently at number thirteen.

He barely managed a small explosion.

Without the suppression of "Telephone", Magic Red's "Payphone" (Telephone Booth) instantly rushed to the first place.

Currently, this single has won two consecutive hits.

King Lu Tian is so generous.

To give an inappropriate example, arranging music is like changing someone's clothes. Different instruments and different timbres are added to the written melody.

Especially in the era of electronic music, there are more and more timbres, more elements need to be arranged and combined, and the arrangement and combination time takes longer.

Look.

The collision between different timbres sometimes produces wonderful chemical reactions, and sometimes the result may be a mess of answers.

Today, about 60% of the arrangement work for "The World" has been completed, leaving only a part of the soundtrack unfinished.

It’s still a youth movie.

After filming Lu Yuan's album MV, Su Lun will have an opportunity to take charge of the big screen.

During the filming of America, Lu Yuan was not idle at night. When his wife was away, he would video chat with Zhang Yadong and others remotely.

You need to try again and again.

To be precise, arranging music is quite a tedious task.

The MV shooting will also begin soon.

Although Chinese songs pay equal attention to lyrics and music, in terms of arrangement, Lu Yuan still has a few skills. If he doesn't give full play to his skills, he will not be able to copy the songs.

This is the end.

You have to keep a close eye on the arrangement work.

Fortunately, "Human World" is a folk-oriented album.

Drum beats that open and close are rarely used, and grand strings are not used much. There are electronic music elements, but not many.

He doesn't need to thank the other person either.

According to Xingchen Media's internal practice, the person responsible for directing the MV this time is Su Lun, a new female director.

Boss Lu’s debt for copying the Magic Red single has been paid off.

After all, if it weren't for him, "Phone Booth" would be among the most popular of all.

Su Lun and the Screenwriter Center have initially completed the script creation, titled "Flash Girl", a youthful and passionate campus theme.

The heroine Su Ding is an eccentric girl who dares to love and hate. She is known as a neurotic girl in the world and is studying in the Music Middle School.

The main line of the story is about the neurotic girl Su Ding, the male protagonist, and other friends forming a folk music band to compete with Western music with folk music.

The idea for the movie originated from an online scolding war.

Years later, the second League of Legends global qualifiers officially launched. To commemorate the launch of S2, several college students studying music uploaded a video.

Play the top war song "Victory" with folk music.

Since the birth of "Victory", only two official versions have been released, one is a symphony version and the other is an electronic music version.

Someone may have released a folk music version, but this is the only version that has aroused heated discussion.

These college students are all students at the Department of Folk Music of the Central Academy of Music, and they all have childish skills. They are not only good at hand skills, but also excellent at arranging music.

It was of high quality and novel enough, and it quickly became popular on the Internet.

As the heat grew, controversy followed.

The controversy between Western music and folk music has always existed. Coupled with the atmosphere of partial worship of foreigners and foreigners, a war of words has made the world dark and dark.

Later, this matter was also posted on major portals.

Su Lun built the prototype of the story based on this incident. She changed the battlefield from the Internet to the school.

Competition between folk music students and Western music students.

This movie is different from other youth movies. Although there is a male protagonist in it, there is no love element, only friendship, youth and passion. Su Lun is planning to invite Mina to play the heroine, and Bai Yu is expected to be the male lead.

Because he hired Mina, Su Lun didn't have the budget to hire any other big-name actors.

Yes.

Su Lun didn't have that much of a budget. According to the company's regulations, the shooting cost of a new director's first film should not exceed 10 million.

Mina's salary alone accounts for 30% of the budget.

This is still a friendly price.

Therefore, Su Lun could only invite Bai Yu.

He is cheap.

As for subsequent marketing expenses?

After the filming is completed, a small preview screening will be held within the company.

In addition to the production department, director department, and screenwriting department, Star Media will also invite some film critics.

Finally, the film’s marketing budget is determined based on the comprehensive score.

Setting the stage is very important.

There is a huge gap in budget between S-class, A-class, and B-class. A-class has a cap of 10 million, while B-class has a budget of only a few million.

The S-class starts at 10 million.

Of course Su Lun wants to get an S-class budget.

The box office and reputation of the first film will determine the scale of investment in her next film.

A case like Lu Yang's soaring budget is now unlikely.

Want to direct a blockbuster film?

Fight monsters and upgrade step by step.

Take Bald Xu as an example. "囧囧" now has a box office of over 700 million, and the budget of his next movie can be raised to 100 million.

of course.

The premise is that it passes multiple rounds of cross-examination, and is submitted to the board of directors after being reviewed and approved by the production department and screenwriting department.

In other words, Boss Lu needs to make a decision.

Without Boss Lu’s nod, it would be useless for other shareholders to join together.

The reason Su Lun hired Mina was to improve the film's evaluation potential.

In Star Media's internal evaluation system, in addition to the quality of the movie itself, actors are also one of the important reference indicators.

Lu Yuan read about the movie project in the weekly newspaper, but he didn't remind Su Lun anything.

He just silently sent a blessing to Su Lun.

Fortunately, "Flash Girl" is a youth film, and the character's character is not that different from Mina's. As long as Su Lun is willing to train her well, she should be able to achieve the desired effect.

However, I'm afraid there will be many days of headaches.

Acting is all about talent.

It is difficult for Mina to play such a contrasting role. She can either be a cold-faced beauty, commonly known as a flower vase, or she has a very good fit with the role.

Contrary to Mina, Damimi, known as the queen of bad movies, is getting better and better with her acting.

The spiritual energy that she almost lost was picked up again by her.

After calming down, Damimi's acting skills have indeed improved a lot, although there is still a gap between her and the capable actors like Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li.

But compared with the new generation of actresses, they can at least be ranked in the first echelon, barely hanging at the bottom of the first echelon.

……

……

Yanjing.

After receiving the copy of "Flash Girl", Mina signed up for a folk music training class in addition to work and schoolwork.

Although folk music cannot be learned in a short period of time, Mina has a foundation in instrumental music and does not seek to learn it, but only seeks to learn to be good.

When it comes to making movies, just learn to be decent.
