You Made Me a Superstar

   Chapter 123

   Ninety percent of the investment in the movie "The Crow" was made by Wang Shuai himself, and the other ten percent was made by piecemeal investment from other places.

   There are many benefits to having the director himself make up the bulk of the investment in the film.

   That is, there is no investor forcibly plugging people, no beeping and relying on various script changes, and no all kinds of messy and troublesome agreements that specify the shooting date.

   In a word, Wang Shuai can control the overall situation and shoot the movie he wants.

   Of course, there are also disadvantages, that is, if the market does not accept it, and the film festival loses its money, all the risks have to be borne by oneself.

Art films!

  Everyone has a few impressions of this type of film.

  The idea is very far-reaching, the content is very heavy, and it is a frequent visitor to major film festivals. The mainland box office hits the street, and the overseas copyright depends entirely on luck.

   There are too many uncertainties.

   The story of "The Crow" is too heavy, and it makes people feel depressing. Wang Shuai himself thinks that no one will really go to the theater to watch this movie, let alone the second and third...

   You guys are not looking for abuse!

   During the filming period, Wang Shuai was preparing for the Cannes Film Festival. After the third day of filming, Wang Shuai returned to Yanjing and hurriedly took "The Crow" to Cannes, France to try his luck.

   This collision is about ten days.

   In the past ten or so days, the copyright has been sold so-so, with no profit but no loss. He is waiting for the Cannes jury to announce the news of the shortlisted films, so as to prepare for the Cannes premiere in advance.

  Cannes premiere?

right!

  People did not plan to simultaneously premiere in China at all.

   June!

  What kind of opponents are they?

  The famous French special agent movie "Bond. Quantum Explosion", Hollywood superhero movie "Superman", British magic movie "Fairy Witch"...

  Although it is said that the domestic film protection month has ended, the authorities have secretly helped the most powerful opponents of "Hero" to move back in order to create a rising posture of Chinese films.

   Moved, moved to June.

   "Hero" is indeed a god.

   has created a new era of Chinese movies, making all Chinese filmmakers collectively climax, and even many filmmakers feel that the era of martial arts blockbusters belonging to Chinese movies has begun!

but…

   Glory is someone else's business.

   Are domestic movies still playing an egg in June?

  All imported blockbusters, who dares to touch the bad for domestic movies?

   Whoever comes and who dies belongs.

   "The Crow" itself is a niche literary film. You use it to fight against these blockbusters. Isn't this the old birthday star who eats arsenic and doesn't want to live?

   Don't say how many screens you can squeeze under the pressure of these blockbusters, let's just say that there are a lot of films for you. Can you be sure that if you just made it today, you won't be drawn down tomorrow because of bad box office?

  People's Chinese film department is also very tangled.

   Behind the brilliance of "Hero", there is inevitably a sense of sadness that belongs to a domestic movie.

   In June, when no Chinese movie was willing to line up, directors ran away one after another.

   It can be understood from the perspective of the director and the producer. After all, no one wants to die!

   But from the perspective of the Chinese film authorities, this is so wrong!

   All are overseas blockbusters,

   No matter how you look at it, there is a feeling that Chinese films have become an overseas film colony.

   This is not possible!

   There has never been a month of purely overseas films in the history of Chinese films.

   Anyway, come to a Chinese movie to support the scene, right?

  Look left and right, look up and down, no matter how you look at "The Crow", it looks like a bad luck.

   Every three days, I talked to the producer of "The Crow" about the release of "The Crow". Wang Shuai was annoyed at first, and he felt like a scapegoat.

   But when he inadvertently checked the recent entertainment news, he suddenly realized that "The Raven" might not necessarily hit the street.

  I haven't followed Huaxia for more than ten days!

   I didn't expect Zhou Yang to become crazy in the entertainment circle of China.

  …………

   The album sales of "The Girl Who Waving Wings" exceeded 250,000, breaking the physical sales record. Is the physical album really declining, or is there a lack of good songs? 》

   "Single "Meet", the CRBT download chart topped China's No. 1, Jiang Shushu talked about "Meet", saying that meeting Zhou Yang was the greatest luck in his life"

   In just a few months, these two songs swept the entire China at an incredible speed…

  On the streets and alleys, in major video stores and shopping malls, "Meet" and "Girl Waving Wings" are played on a loop every day.

The melody of these two songs is everywhere in the MP3, MP4, and repeaters among young people. They wear headphones, sneakers and ripped jeans. I don't understand the tide...

   A box of pirated tapes of "The Girl Who Waving Wings" for five yuan has become a best-seller in the video store. The shop owner's face cracked with laughter. He just received a batch of goods and sold out in a blink of an eye.

   If there is a special extended version of "Meeting", and a poster of Jiang Shushu singing with a microphone, then this tape will be more valuable than the genuine one.

  In the school, during the busy night of self-study breaks, many teachers who are very disgusted with pop music actually turned on the computers in the class and played the song over and over again.

Hearing this song, many girls in the class will look up at Jiang Shushu's desperately climbing figure in the MV. They feel that this song is full of strength and supports them to bravely face the difficult nights. With the upcoming high school and college entrance exams...

   The fire made Jiang Shushu unbelievable.

  250,000!

  This amazing statistic made Jiang Shushu feel like he was dreaming.

   Wrong!

   She dared not do this in her dreams.

Looking at the countless announcements and arrangements every day, Jiang Shushu felt that his life was extremely unreal, especially the thousands of fans shouting and shouting outside the major programs, and the siege and blocking of countless media. She seems to have returned to the most popular year of the H56 group!

   "Cai Lin officially apologized to Zhou Yang, saying that she had learned from it, hoped to get Zhou Yang's forgiveness, and was willing to compensate half of the song's revenue for Zhou Yangfang"

   "Plagiarism incident, so far, Zhou Yang has not made any response nor forgiven Cai Lin".

"The Girl Who Waving Wings" brought Jiang Shushu on fire, and made the two words Zhou Yang madly rampant in the music circle. Especially after Cai Lin's plagiarism incident was exposed, countless media pushed the incident to a wave at an unprecedented height.

   Almost all the reporters who participated in reporting this incident felt that the popularity of this incident could continue to ferment, and I am afraid it would set off even bigger waves!

  The reporters were sharpening their knives, staring at Zhou Yang all day long, waiting for the explosive news to come again.

Why?

  Because Cai Lin side softened to Zhou Yang and apologized in front of reporters, but Zhou Yang side did not make any response.

   What does this mean?

   It means that Zhou Yang, a fledgling guy who made a big noise, is very likely to kill Cai Lin, a young music queen who had high hopes!

  Many reporters have even made some more eye-catching predictions about this plagiarism incident in their own media, just waiting for the next wave of music earthquakes!

   "Yes! Hong Kong Island Mainland co-produced the martial arts movie "The Grand Master", the movie theme song has been set!"

"This is the best film and television song I've heard since I directed the film, none of which... But now I can't announce this song, I can only say that with this song, Huaxia's martial arts movies will start a brand new period. Chapter!"

  “…”

   Just when all the media, all netizens and filmmakers are all staring at the plagiarism incident...

   Earthquake is coming!

   However, it is not the earthquake caused by the fermentation of plagiarism, but a big earthquake in the film and music circles at the same time.

   Huang Jiacheng announced in front of everyone that Zhou Yang's new song "Men Be Self-improvement" is the movie song of the "Grandmaster" movie!

  Many musicians and media were a little confused after seeing this news!

   There is an indescribable sense of separation.

   In their impression, Zhou Yang should have written small fresh songs!

but…

  Why did you suddenly run to write martial arts songs?

   Moreover, Hong Kong Island director Huang Jiacheng, who has always been very picky about all aspects, can actually say such an amazing compliment, telling the new chapter of martial arts movies!

   What kind of music is this "Men Be Self-improvement"?

  The major media swarmed to hype it.

However!

   Huang Jiacheng's level of appetite is indeed unparalleled. He only said his name, but did not reveal anything other than his name. He only said that when the movie is finished and released, you will understand!

   This is so neat that everyone's heart is itchy.

   The tickling in everyone's heart is still to come...

   Wang Shuai, who came back from Cannes, saw that Zhou Yang was more popular, and he couldn't stop laughing.

   Then, he immediately held a movie preview conference, and immediately announced the release date of the movie "The Raven".

   at the press conference.

  Wang Shuai solemnly took out a stack of psychological diagnosis reports in front of countless reporters.

"a movie…"

   "Two months!"

   "Everyone is in a good mood when they are filming..."

   "But after seeing the amazing acting skills of Xiao Zhou and Miss Song Yiyi, we felt depressed every time we filmed..."

"I'm depressed, the assistant director Feng Kai is depressed, the assistant director and my partner Bi Funan is depressed too, as well as the cameraman, the set manager, the drama manager..." When Wang Shuai's eyes were very serious, he seemed to grit his teeth "Everyone, you guys See, everyone attended the movie preview meeting today... Only Mr. Zhou Yangzhou's seat is vacant..."

   "It's not because Xiao Zhou is very busy, or because Xiao Zhou refuses to attend the preview meeting, but because I'm afraid he is not safe!"

   "Why not safe? Good question!"

"I can't describe how we spent those two months, all we know is that during the filming of this movie, many staff members were very negative, and they wanted to tear Zhou Yang to pieces on the spot... Now, I want to slap Xiao Zhou twice!"

   "So, if he comes, I'm afraid I can't help but throw this microphone on Xiao Zhou's forehead in front of you..."

  “…”

   When reporters heard this scene…

   All eyes widened!

   They were so excited.

  My grass!

  What the **** did Zhou Yang take?
