In the past two years, Chinese music has been lackluster, except for Jay Chou, who can bring some new things to those who like music every year, and the other kings and queens all rely on their previous qualifications to eat.

No way, everyone in the circle knows that making music, especially for newcomers, is almost impossible to succeed, unless you participate in the draft and win the support of a vote of fans, the Chinese music industry will not have a singer like Li Ronghao who debuted in the non-draft from 07 to 17.

Yao Bei Na hangs a lot, she sang several songs in the hit TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan", it was useless, if it wasn't for "The Voice of China", who knew who she was!

It's hard to make music, and the public thinks it's okay for you to sing without being charged.

Oh my God, even if I sing for free, but the accompaniment always costs money, and I have to pay rent for studio recordings, and finally all of this is alive, and I want to be a blockbuster, but the new song is released, and there is a free version on the Internet immediately...

Nima, how did the album sell?

So, relying solely on albums to support a musician these days is simply a dream.

Jay Chou's 03-year album "Ye Huimei" sold more than three million copies, and the next few albums couldn't sell because his songs were not good?

"I'm Busy" is an album with the blessing of "Blue and White Porcelain", how many copies have been sold? 400,000 copies...

Jay Chou is still like this, not to mention other musicians!

The main thing is that it can be downloaded for free on the Internet, and since it can be downloaded for free, how many people are really willing to spend money to buy genuine albums?

In a vicious circle, ten years later, there are few well-known works in the Chinese music circle, and no musicians who have pioneered the genre are born...

According to the most conventional budget, the cost of making an album ranges from 200,000 to 2 million, of course, not including the MV shoot and the like.

The production of MVs for domestic singers is based on the singer's coffee position.

The more kings and queens, the higher the production cost of the MV.

The MV of La Yin's "Silence", which uses ultra-high-definition cameras and motion capture technology, costs 2 million, and is already one of the most expensive MVs in recent years.

The Huayi music department received Xu Hui's account and almost didn't cry.

Nima, five million for six songs, why don't you grab it?

Although the order was given that there was no upper limit, the 5 million still exceeded expectations, so a special person came to investigate to see if Xu Hui had spent money to do the right thing.

By the way, as of July 25th, the box office of the 25-day movie "Embroidered Spring Knife" officially exceeded 200 million, and Xu Hui was successfully promoted to the fourth director in China to achieve this achievement.

"Red Cliff" (above) is a pity, fifteen days after its release, the cumulative box office can reach 180 million, the original time and space, fifteen days after its release, the box office of "Red Cliff" (above) is 240 million...

The flood of word-of-mouth always has a role, and the diversion effect of "Embroidered Spring Knife" is obvious.

It is estimated that the final box office of "Red Cliff" (above) is likely to be only about 250 million.

Not to mention killing "Titanic", even the 260 million of "Assembly" is quite difficult to surpass.

Wu Baige's heel fell a little big!

……

Xu Chuhe is the deputy director of the finance department of Huayi Music, and his task is to distribute money.

Huayi has raised a lot of singers, although they don't make much money, but they also represent the face of Huayi, so for a long time, although Huayi music has some chicken ribs, it has never been banned by the Wang brothers.

After all, their ideal is to build a large media group like Warner Bros., and the film department must be tightened, and the music aspect cannot be relaxed!

Everyone can see that being a music company in these years is tantamount to losing money and making money, Huayi is still happy to do it, I really don't understand what they are trying to do...

Xu Chuhe has a pain in the eyes every time he sees these singers releasing an album, knowing that he will lose money, and he has to spend money hard.

Finally, the cash cow in the family is about to release a new song, the original SJ, the album sales alone are enough to return to the cost and make a lot of money, such a fan appeal is enough to make domestic music companies of all sizes red.

Xu Hui's appeal ranks first among more than a dozen people in SJ, and it is conceivable that when he releases an album, even if it is a single, it is a sure win.

However, seeing Huang Wen's application for the 5 million budget given to him, Xu Chuhe was about to vomit blood!

subconsciously wondered if Huang Wen wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune, and Huang Wen repeatedly explained Xu Hui's request at this time.

Xu Chuhe reluctantly approved this budget application, and by the way, he also made a special trip to Hengdian to see how Xu Hui used the 5 million.

Xu Hui directly led him to the special effects company BJ base FX, and after watching a special effect, Xu Chuhe had a plan in his heart.

First of all, he knew that the 5 million mentioned by Huang Wen and Xu Hui was definitely used for serious things;

Secondly, he is a little aggrieved, is it just a song, does it cost so much money? Do you make a movie with such a big special effect?

"Xu Hui, it will cost at least three million to complete this special effect according to your ideas!"

"I know. ”

“…”

Xu Chuhe wanted to break open Xu Hui's skull and see what he was thinking.

Neurotic, spend 3 million to make a MV for a song!

"base FX is very good, it's not worse than Hualong and Tiangong!"

Xu Hui didn't see Xu Chuhe's aggrieved expression, but vigorously recommended base FX.

Hualong is the special effects team of China Film, and Tiangong Colorful is a domestic special effects company that Huayi often cooperates with, Xu Hui didn't think about it, and directly chose base FX, the reason is very simple, as early as last year, he was a shareholder of base FX.

"Of course the picture effect is very good, but it's too expensive, five minutes of plot, just..."

"You get what you pay for, isn't that the special effects!"

“…”

Okay, you're the director, you're justified!

……

Xu Chuhe also had a general understanding and knew that Xu Hui didn't spend money indiscriminately, so he let him do it.

Just like Huang Wen said, with Xu Hui's popularity, he won't lose money anyway.

Xu Hui arrived in Hengdian on the 16th, and in ten days, he had already filmed the MV of two songs.

Today I am going to shoot the MV plot of "In My Singing".

The heroine is still putting on makeup, and Xu Hui is discussing the shooting task with the photographer.

"Later, you will follow Liu Sisi, pay attention to the close-up scene..."

"Also, I'll make the lighting a little softer..."

The specific plot is very simple, that is, the two of them broke up from the realization to the three-stage structure of the picture.

"I think it's better to use black and white..."

"Black and white?

The photographer gave his opinion, Xu Hui probably thought about it, and nodded in agreement.

"I'm going to see our heroine, why isn't it okay..."

The preparations here are already in place, but Liu Sisi is still nested in the nanny car, Xu Hui can't wait a little and is ready to urge.

By the way, the heroine is Liu Sisi.

Five days of alone time, it's a little exciting to think about!
