The animated film "The Lion King" not only has an extremely important position in the history of Disney's production, but also one of the most prestigious masterpieces in the history of animated films!

And its soundtrack...... Of course, for filmmakers and musicians all over the world, it is a textbook-level classic! In another time and space, the movie soundtrack of "The Lion King" is one of Li Qian's collections, and I don't know how many times I have heard it over and over again.

But for now, it's not too important!

The important thing is that after Sun Meimei rejected the other party's invitation on her behalf, Disney actually quickly poached these two of her few friends in Hollywood! and quickly pulled them from their work in progress and ran to Liao Liao's house to be lobbyists for them!

Hearing the intention of the two, Li Qian subconsciously sighed in his heart: Hollywood's seven are worthy of being the seven!

Their tentacles are so numerous, so secret, their deep control over the entire entertainment industry, and their influence on all kinds of people in the entire American entertainment industry are really extremely powerful!

As far as Li Qian knows, although John Days has been involved in many production companies over the years, he should have never had a specific cooperation with Disney before.

And Margaery Tyrell is known as "America's sweetheart", but in fact, her best-selling films have only one famous film so far, "100 Days of First Love", and that is the work of independent film company Lionsgate. In addition, she also made a commercial production, with an average box office, which has nothing to do with Disney, and other small-budget works are more independent films and have nothing to do with Disney.

But Disney needed them to be lobbyists, so they came!

Of course, the two of them made it very clear that they were just coming over for a run, whether to accept the invitation or not, or to see what Li Qian meant - they would not be stupid enough to endorse Disney when Li Qian had already refused!

Of course, they don't have to give face, but Li Qian hesitated, but agreed to meet with the vice president of Disney, Michael Dawn.

As a result, John Days and Margaery Tyrell's task was successfully completed, and the two were overjoyed - this face was definitely given to them by Li Qian.

Regardless of whether the matter works out in the end, they have completed the task as liaison and lobbyists, so Disney and Michael Dawn can't deny this account, and they owe the two of them a favor.

Such favors will come in handy at critical moments.

Of course, on the other hand, Li Qian gave face so much, he had already refused before, and he actually agreed to meet Michael Dawn for the sake of the two of them, which is also a favor, but this time, they owe Li Qian. If there is nothing to say in the future, it needs to be repaid with other favors.

After a sumptuous Chinese dinner, the two left unsatisfied.

The next day, Li Qian met the senior vice president of Disney, Michael Dawn.

The other party is very sincere.

Maybe it's because Li Qian once won the Oscar for Best Score for the soundtrack of "Titanic", or maybe it's because of the legends that have been circulating on the bodies of various entertainment stars in Los Angeles in recent days, in short, he is indeed very sincere.

And when Li Qian asked to watch the first cut of the film after reading the story outline, the other party also readily agreed, and personally accompanied Li Qian to the Disney headquarters to watch this movie that currently has no audio track at all. Well, it's basically a silent film, but the first cut has been completed.

And in the next commercial contract negotiations, he showed considerable sincerity to Sun Meimei!

One million dollars in remuneration for work, the two parties share the copyright of the soundtrack, share the sales profits of the soundtrack, the songs that appear in the soundtrack, and Li Qian enjoys full copyright and free use rights in places that are not film content and non-soundtracks - that is to say, this treatment is better than the treatment of "Titanic" that John Days gave on behalf of Fox back then.

For example, the simplest point, according to this contract, if signed, Li Qian can even go to the market before the movie is released, and there is no need to restrict the listing of Liao Liao's album, including the song "My-Heart-will-Go-On", which must be after the original soundtrack is released!

All in all, everything fits perfectly!

It's just that it's still the same problem, and the time is a little tight!

Michael Dawn revealed that the film was indeed planned to be released during the summer vacation of 2001, probably in mid-July, which means that in order not to delay the release of the film, the film must be completely produced by the end of May at the latest!

But after thinking about it, Li Qian finally nodded and agreed.

However, the treatment will continue to be discussed.

And Disney doesn't know if it's full of confidence in Li Qian, or facing the pressure of the movie schedule, there is really no way, in short, it's very refreshing!

In the end, Sun Meimei won a salary of $1.5 million for Li Qian, and for Li Qian's work team, in fact, Xie Mingyuan, also won a salary of $500,000!

Disney even agreed that if Li Qian's soundtrack plan was not accepted, they would still pay 40% of Li Qian's soundtrack work, and the copyright of the abandoned soundtrack still belonged to Li Qian!

This remuneration, even in the United States, is enough to make one or even two small-budget movies! Now it is being used by Disney to smash the soundtrack of "The Lion King", which shows its urgency and its high expectations for Li Qian!

It's just that the extra job makes the time of Li Qian's trip to the United States more urgent!

Fortunately, in recent years, he has already adapted!

The song is very easy to write, and the song is also very easy to write, Liao Liao is practicing new songs, Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan went to Disney's headquarters to sit for a day, looking over and over the first cut of the silent film version of "The Lion King", and after coming back, Li Qian spent more than four hours writing a song and five soundtracks.

I got up the next morning, made some revisions and polishes, and then took another two hours to complete the arrangement, and then in Xie Mingyuan's stunned, I threw the song and the five soundtracks to him.

Li Qian continued to record Liao Liao's new songs, while Xie Mingyuan was responsible for leading people to contact Disney, and borrowed some Rolling Stone's connections to start recording samples of these soundtracks.

Fortunately, whether it is Li Qian, Liao Liao, Xie Mingyuan, or Rolling Stone Records, and Disney, they all attach great importance to each other's cooperation, so they have shown extremely high efficiency in cooperating with each other.

Finally, it was not even the end of January, when Li Qian finished all six English songs for Liao Liao, and the producers of "The Lion King" over there also unanimously approved the sample of the soundtrack.

So, when Li Qian and Liao Liao boarded the plane to China together, Xie Mingyuan was once again sadly left in the United States - he was responsible for completing the band recording and post-editing of these soundtracks!

But the good news is that Qi Jie seems to be very concerned, and after confirming that he will definitely stay in the United States for the Spring Festival, Qi Jie took the initiative to contact and sent the old man of the Xie family and Xie Mingyuan's children to Los Angeles.

In other words, although this Spring Festival is going to be celebrated in the United States, at least, relatives are around.
