Chapter 158: Platinum Records!
Punch had also worked as a music producer before, and he could certainly see who was taking the main credit for the album "Medal".
It's just that in the list of the production team, Pan Qi found that none of the people in it had heard of it except Liu Pian and Ye Wenxuan:
Producer: Liu Pian!
Arranger: Liu Pian, Liu Cheng, Yan Zhe!
Recording: Liu Pian, Liu Cheng!
Mixing: Yan Zhe!
Mixing Assistant: Cheng Xue!
Chorus Writing: Liu Pian Chorus: Liu Yi!
If you take the other people on the list to the circle and ask, no one has heard of them. However, a rock player told Pan Qi that Liu Cheng used to be a rock musician and had been playing for more than ten years, but he was also not well-known. That person was very surprised, he didn't think that Liu Cheng would actually help Ye Wenxuan make an album.
In the end, the hard work paid off, and Punch still found the information of these people. Cheng Xue, a small employee of Tianyu, Liu Yi and Yan Zhe are Ye Wenxuan's roommates. Among them, the background information about Liu Yi made Pan Qi secretly speechless, and he broke out in a cold sweat behind his back.
Yuhao Group....
Oh my God, Imperial Entertainment is barely enough to stuff people's teeth, it depends on whether people have that appetite.
Panchi is completely convinced, there is no one who can make such a blockbuster album with such a strange lineup.
The main thing is Liu Pian.
......
After getting Liu Pian's contact information, Pan Qi pondered for a long time, and did not take the liberty to call politely. Now that the battle between the two albums has settled, the victory of "Medal" is a certainty, but it is not clear how high it can go in the end.
He believes that almost everyone else in the circle has exploded except for himself.
The toys made by a few children were really sold in the end!
Can you believe it?
At least Du Feiming is hard to believe.
When the sales were released in the first week, Lao Du still had a bright smile on his face, and he had a good appetite in the past few days of the New Year, eating Ma Ma Xiang, and taking his son to the amusement park for an afternoon.
But when the sales volume of the second week was announced, Du Feiming's brows were locked, and he didn't let go for seven days.
By the third week, Du Feiming could no longer describe his mood in words.
Ya's obviously the sales of "Forest" in the first week far exceeded the sales of "Medal" by more than 100,000, why did it suddenly wither so much later?
Isn't this market toxic?
Later, after seeing the praise for "Medal" on the Internet and people's popularity, Du Feiming understood a little. It seems that....there are a few songs in "Medal" that are particularly popular, and they have spread to the circle of young people like a plague.
But why is it so popular for Mao?
Many people in the circle analyzed it and came to the conclusion:
"It should be that Ye Wenxuan's personal fame is too high, and his fans are very young, so he is easier to fool. Seeing that his idol had released an album, he went to buy it. ”
"Ye Wenxuan is a little fresh meat, he is handsome, and his ability to attract fans is much stronger than Zhou Chucheng. I have to admit that Zhou Chucheng is old, and many young people don't know him, so it's normal to sell him. ”
"The song is actually good, "Medal" and "Stubborn" have the vitality of young people, "Looking forward to Love" has the fame brought by TV dramas, "You at the Same Table" has memories, and "Smiling Eyes" is even more popular on urban campuses. ”
"It's not so much that Ye Wenxuan is famous, it's better to say that Liu Pian is too powerful. ”
"I ignored him before, and the back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves. ”
"I remembered that he wrote a military song "Loyal to the Country" before, and that song was very good. Who knew he was so good at making albums?"
"It's still young people who understand young people's tastes better. ”
"It's just a little too young, less than twenty, right? It's only a freshman, how much can I learn in school?"
There is indeed a difference between the academic school and the practical one, and the academic school provides more basic knowledge and theory, and has to combine the market, experience and smell of music.
Nowadays, many musicians are not born in the academy, and even the vast majority of singers are born through talent shows.
What is the major?
However, Ye Wenxuan is a very positive one among the draft stars.
......
At this moment, Liu Pian, who has been remembered by many people in the circle, left Jiangcheng as early as the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year and went to Xiangjiang.
"Dark War 2" was filmed a few years ago, and now I am working overtime to do the post-production. After Liu Pian arrived in Zedong, he joined the later group. In fact, Liu Pian doesn't need to do too much professional work, BGM can follow the first part, and the theme song can be changed.
As for the editing rights, Xu Ran is not only a director, but also a producer, so he has the absolute right to decide which edited version to use when it is released.
Generally speaking, the editing power is in the hands of the producer, and the director is like an album producer, who just comes to work and leaves after filming. So in the past, when DVDs were still popular, the director would make a director's cut version that was different from the released version.
In it, you can see some plots that have been cut out but the director thinks they are very good, and there may be cult plots that are inappropriate for children, such as cyan violence or something, and there may be tidbits during filming.
Many movie fans like to collect director's cut DVDs. Producers will cut out some lengthy plots for the sake of commercialization and box office, and these things may be endowed with some profound meanings in the eyes of the director.
However, not all viewers like to think.
That's why the market for popcorn movies is the largest.
Liu Pian came this time, mainly to assist Xu Ran to complete the editing. BGM, both of them feel that it is secondary.
Xu Ran has always had an idea: Liu Pian, this kid shouldn't go to learn music, how good is it to learn movies?
With his keen insight, after a few years of training, he can become an excellent director.
It's a shame.
......
The second part does not have Liu Pian's follow-up group, and the shots shot by Xu Ran are very different from those in Liu Liar's mind, except that the general plot has not changed, many pictures have changed. Liu Pian knows that this is normal, the same script is filmed by different directors, and it must be a different painting style.
Compared with the original version, Xu Ran shot more sharply and the rhythm was faster, and Liu Pian felt a little better than the original at first glance. The literary flavor of the original version is too heavy and too soft, and there are too many directors thinking in it, so the rhythm is correspondingly slow.
Xu Ran's previous movies, including "Dark War 1", were so fast that the rhythm was flying, and "Dark War 2" naturally changed some flavor in his hands, with more of the fast pace and sharpness of police and gangster films, and less of the gentleness and hypocrisy of literary films.
Maybe Xu Ran's "Dark War 2" is not as good as the original in terms of thickness, but it is more suitable for the box office, so as not to make the two "Dark Wars" become two flavors.
......
During the day, Liu Pian is busy in the company, and at night she lives in the hotel.
The money, of course, is out of the company.
Liu Pian thought that he had made do with Liu Yi's family for a while, but it wasn't that he hadn't slept together anyway.
I just heard Liu Yi say that during the Chinese New Year, he has always lived in his original home, that is, his parents' luxury manor. The Liu liar was embarrassed to be cheeky, but he vaguely remembered Liu Yi's father's somewhat intimidating momentum.
March 1st, the day before school starts.
Liu Pian and Liu Yi still came out to get together and saw off Liu Yi casually. If the Liu liar wants to stay and edit, he will definitely not be able to catch up with the start of school, and he will have to take more than half a month off.
"Teddy, remember to help me bring the fake slip back to school. The willow liar smiled, it was the coolest to be able to skip class openly.
Liu Yi took the fake note, only to see that on it, Liu Pian wrote that he needed to delay for a while because he wanted to make BGM for "Dark War 2"... Balabala, anyway, it's a lot of nonsense.
Liu Yi put away the fake slip and said with a cheap smile, "If you don't count me, I can also help make BGM." ”
"Come on, I'm afraid that if you go to the crew, you may hook up with another girl and delay our progress. ”
"Am I that kind of person?"
"No, it's better!"
"Okay, I'll go back to school by myself, okay, right? But I don't know if your fake note can be approved. ”
"Don't worry, I'll greet our guide. ”
........
Then, Liu Yi flew away, with a depressed face. For him, learning is secondary, playing is the most important, and being able to play music and make girls at the same time is the best.
Liu Pian also continued to edit, and with his hand, he also pulled out the theme song of the movie.
Movie soundtrack: "Dare to Do"!
For this song, Liu Pian sold the last 50,000 yuan to Fang Yan. That is, the male protagonist of "Dark War 2" this time increases the villain.
But like the first part, this villain is a good guy who is not a bad guy in the end.
And it's more romantic than the first "Hua".
The image of the people in the play is an international thief who plays a good magic trick.
Handsome, cool, mysterious, and romantic.
Magician, big thief~~~
This is the dream lover of countless girls.
The kind that makes your mouth water when you look at the screen.
In fact, Fang Yan is indeed very handsome, I heard that he was poached by talent scouts because he was too handsome, and then made his debut in a TVB idol drama. But people are born with drama bones, and their acting skills exploded on the spot, and they were later poached by the director to make movies, and they also came back with the Academy Awards.
This guy had a smooth journey, and later released an album, but he only belongs to the kind that leaves with one shot, and he is not ready to sing for a long time.
This time, Fang Yan picked up the microphone again, or because of the movie "Dark War 2". Secondly, he had also heard that Liu Pian wrote a popular song "The Harder the Love" to Liu Ying, of course he would not refuse this type of song.
Listen to the title of the song, the more difficult one is, the more I love it~, one dares to act, rhymes more, even the format is the same, and the battle is neat.
But this time he was disappointed.
Liu Pian spent a thousand deception points, and he hit it once, and the system didn't come out with a popular song, which was the original movie soundtrack.
It's nothing, it's just that the lyrics are particularly suitable for movies.
So Liu Pian didn't ask for too much money, and only sold for 50,000. Fang Yan couldn't talk about how happy he was, nor how disappointed he was, he just smiled and asked Liu Pian to have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future.
After all, I'm an actor, not a king of music...
Fang Yan comforted himself.
......
In mid-March, the fourth week of the Medal's shelves.
This week, the sales of "Medal" actually increased instead of decreasing, rising by 20,000, and a total of 240,000 were sold!
This is completely brought up by word-of-mouth and song popularity.
People swipe Weibo and see that many bloggers' original videos use the songs of other people's albums to make BGM, and then brush some short video software, and see that many Internet celebrities' small videos also use other people's songs to make BGM.
Back at school, my classmates were discussing these songs.
It seems that wherever you can connect with music, you can see a few songs from the "Medal" album.
If you haven't heard it, you go to your favorite music platform to search, find it, look at it, and have to pay?
Then most people chose piracy, and a few chose to pay.
This is the reason for the rebound in album sales, if there is no piracy, it is estimated that the strength of this rebound can fly into the sky at once.
Secondly, the moment that made countless people in the circle stunned has finally arrived.
Counting this week, the total sales of "Medal" on all platforms exceeded 1 million, reaching 1.19 million!
The first and perhaps only platinum album of the year....
It's out!
