Chapter 252: Plans for Filming a Movie

As for Du Yuanqi, because of her unsatisfactory results in the recent quizzes, she also gave up the opportunity to come back over the weekend and hung her arms at school.

She won't wait until the 26th, when Cai Wei celebrates her birthday, to ask for leave to come back for one night.

However, she still conveyed her support for her brother over the phone.

"Brother, beat Peng Sizhang down and let him kneel down and sing conquest for you!"

Du Caige was speechless: "I don't have any big contradictions with him, it's just a joke and a small bet." ”

"Anyway, brother, you can't lose! My pocket money is all for my little niece to buy gifts, and it's up to you whether the next month's meal money is settled or not!"

"What do you mean?"

"I bet against Xie Jinyu...... I bet that the sales of "East Wind Break" will be better than that of "Rock and Roll Love", what a broken name, it makes people uncomfortable when they hear it. Brother, in short, come on, I support you spiritually! Oh, why are you pinching me? Oh, I know, brother, Xiao Xie wants me to convey that she is very grateful to you for writing a song for her sister, and the next time we meet, she will offer a girl's fragrant kiss!"

Then there was a burst of laughter and laughter of the girls in the earpiece.

This is enviable, damn youth......

June 22nd.

In Hemingway's alliance group, the friends of the sand sculpture are chatting happily.

Some people are seriously discussing the plot, and some people are bragging about last night's clubhouse model.

Some people are seriously analyzing the stock market situation, some people are running trains with their mouths full, and some people are despairing their feelings sadly.

Group management "Xiao Zhe" @全体成员: "It's 12 o'clock soon, please go and support the new song written by Hai Da!" "East Wind Breaks", I listened to a audition, it's really beautiful, and I will never regret buying it!"

This message blew up many divers, and the topics of discussion were all closed, focusing on Hemingway's songwriting.

"It's that little fresh meat 'Jiang Youxi' singing again, right? I listened to the first two songs Haida wrote for him, and they were both pretty good. I'm going to support this song too. ”

"Download it first, and if it's good, buy 1,000 copies to support it. Anyway, if I buy 1,000 copies, why not the Customs?"

"Hehe, the slogan is so exaggerated, I'll copy it for you to see. "This is an epoch-making work, and it has the potential to change the trend of the entire music scene and provide new ideas for musicians who create Chinese style songs", is it so exaggerated?"

"I don't know if it's an exaggeration, I saw a promotional MV clip on the Internet two days ago, and it was very good, and that short piece of music was also very interesting, and I didn't listen to it for long, so I listened to it more than 20 times. ”

"It's amazing, but since it's a song written by Haida, I still believe it. "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is also the work of the founding of the sect, and the level of Haida's writing of songs is no worse than the level of what he wrote. ”

"He still has the leisure to write songs? I really want to lock him in a small dark room, and he will not be allowed to eat without writing 20,000 words a day......

"Haid's update speed is fast enough, I don't expect him to update more every day, just to ensure that the quality does not deteriorate. ”

......

Du Caige withdrew his gaze from the peep screen, and looked at the time again, 11:50.

He wasn't nervous, he was just looking forward to it.

What he is looking forward to is how people on this planet will feel when they hear the national style song "East Wind Break", which is very different from the previous music style?

All the preparations have been made, so let's wait for the results.

Looking at it now, whether it is a song or a carrying, it can no longer give him much satisfaction.

When he first came to this world, he was forced to work as a porter in order to solve the problem of debt.

And now, the financial aspect is no longer a problem, and he wants to do something that will allow him to realize his self-worth.

For example, making movies.

However, although he is famous in this world, this fame is not in the field of film.

It's unlikely that he'll be able to get his hands on a big-budget movie right away.

Without any works, he simply can't attract investment.

As for making movies all by themselves...... That's not realistic.

It's not about money.

He didn't graduate from directing, and he hasn't made any eye-catching works, even if he invests in making movies, which good actor dares to mix with him?

A lot of things aren't as simple as talking and tapping on the keyboard.

The route he planned for himself was: in the second half of this year, he will first shoot two micro-films with a small cost of about 40 minutes (less than 500,000 yuan).

placed on the video website of Yuanguang Group, and slowly became famous.

Then after registering with Duan Xiaochen's company and starting official business, he found one or two cutting-edge directors who were still well-known to make films, quickly made a few films with small investment, and hung up an assistant director in the crew.

This is not only to mix qualifications, but also to get to know and inspect the staff during the actual filming process.

For example, excellent makeup artists, cameramen, prop masters, action directors, and stuntmen are not just casual encounters, and they need to be precipitated in the circle for a period of time before they can be discovered.

In this way, by waiting until next year, I will have a certain amount of qualifications and fame in the field of film and television, and I will have a little appeal, and I will also have a certain understanding of the film circle of Azure Star.

At that time, I will be able to officially take charge of myself, find a few satisfactory actors, find a group of more suitable staff after investigation, and pull up a crew to make the movie I want to make.

His first big movie, if not particularly successful, at least not too much of a failure.

When on Earth, there is a saying that a famous director is allowed three chances to fail, while a new director is only allowed to fail once.

It must be similar in Azure Star.

As a rookie director, if the first work hits the street very badly, it will be difficult to attract investment in the future - well, you don't have to worry about investment, but excellent actors and staff are not willing to follow a failed director to mess around.

If the first movie is miserable, when the second movie is released, it will be a problem to negotiate with the theater chain to get more films.

It is precisely because of this kind of consideration that Du Caige intends to strictly implement his plan and follow the predetermined pace.

If you're not too lucky, wait until the second half of next year, or at the end of next year at the latest, and you can try to make a movie independently.

Thinking so, he clicked on a recently released movie, and although he opened a membership, he still had to pay for this latest movie to watch it again.

As for the handling? Today's task is not completed? What? What are you talking about? The signal is not good and you can't hear clearly.

......

"The sales data is so good, you go and see the reviews,, I haven't seen such a popular song in several years. Let me tell you, if you seize the opportunity this time, Xiao Jiang will not be a second-tier top problem, but will have a chance to be on the first line! Made, this kid is really lucky, and you have spared no effort to write songs for him. ”

At one o'clock, Tang Yezhi called, and his voice was loud, which shocked Du Caige's eardrums.

He pressed pause, took the phone a little farther away, turned on the speakerphone, and asked, "What data?"

"Now it's only the Philharmonic platform. ”

"How much?"

"You guess?" said Tang Yezhi in a low voice, mysteriously.

"Tang Fatty, you're enough. If you don't say it, I'll hang up the phone, I really don't care as much as you think, just ask casually. ”

"Okay, I've lost to you, I can't live if I don't say it! This kind of thing must be said out loud, I want the whole world to know!"

"Quick!

"The platform sold 37,000 copies in one hour and downloaded more than 25,000 times. ”

"How much?" Du Caige felt that he was having auditory hallucinations.

"Hehe, you can't believe it, can you?"

"I can't believe it," Du Caige admits frankly, "how much is the number of 'Fairy Tales'? I remember selling more than 20,000 copies in three hours, and downloading less than 20,000 times." ”

"That's right!" Tang Ye insisted, "and the key thing is that the sales curve thief is particularly beautiful! It is constantly rising! It hasn't really started to exert its strength yet, you wait, this song is definitely not just a record-breaking." I have a hunch that there will be a big earthquake in the music world. ”

"What about the data of "Rock Love"?" Du Caige asked casually.

Of course, even if he doesn't ask, he knows that the data of "Rock and Roll Love" cannot be compared to "East Wind Break".

What is the concept of selling 37,000 copies and downloading 25,000 times in an hour?

And that's just the data on the Philharmonic platform.

"Dongfeng Po" is released simultaneously on all platforms, and according to the normal ratio, the total data should be three times the data of the Philharmonic platform.

In other words, it is likely that in the past hour, "East Wind Break" has sold 100,000 copies, and the number of downloads is estimated to be more than 70,000 times.

In 2007, the first week of new songs was downloaded more than 800,000 times.

That's a week's time.

And music has a word-of-mouth fermentation period, and high-quality songs will continue to accelerate sales data and downloads over time.

and "Fairy Tales" have gone through such a process.

can reach 25,000 downloads in the first hour, "East Wind Break" is definitely rushing to break a hundred.

Downloads exceeded one million in the first week.

So far, no paid digital single in the entire Azure Star has been able to achieve more than one million downloads in the first week. (There are free releases.) )

Du Caige is looking forward to "East Wind Breaking" to accomplish this feat.

But now we have to face a bet with Peng Sizhang.

""Rock 'n' Roll Love", it's okay. You didn't listen?"

"It's not time yet. ”

"Lao Tzu really convinced you. Let's go and hear it! Anyway, you made a bet with someone, can you be serious?"

After a pause, seeing that Du Caige did not express his position, Tang Yezhi smiled and sighed: "Forget it, don't sell it." "Rock and Roll Love" sold 15,000 copies on the Philharmonic platform in the first hour, with 7,000 downloads, and the data is very good, worthy of Peng Sizhang's status as a singer. ”

There was a deep irony in his words that was not disguised at all.

"What about word of mouth?"

"I'll go, is Lao Tzu your personal assistant? With that, Tang Yezhi hung up the phone.

Within two minutes, he called again: "Tonight's celebration banquet will start, and you won't return if you don't get drunk." ”

Du Caige was speechless: "It's only the first day, so let's wait for the results of the first week to come out." ”

"Don't wait, it's already stable," Tang Yezhi said triumphantly, "Because the sales are too good, all major platforms have given "Dongfeng Po" the best recommended position, and even Tianyi Entertainment's Doremi platform kneels and licks Lao Tzu regardless of previous suspicions." Wait for "East Wind Break" to break the record!"
