Chapter Thirty-Six: One Has a Kiss Scene and One Has A Bed Scene
…
At the end of this year, the UFO will be controlled by Warner, and next year it will be officially acquired by Warner, and then it will become Warner Taiwan Records, and Warner will begin to fully enter the Chinese music scene.
The record copyrights of the original UFO singers Wang Jie, Cai Qin, Aaron Kwok, Jiang Yuhuan, Ye Qianwen, Su Rui, Zhang Yusheng, Chen Baiqiang, Lu Fang, and Lin Yilian will also belong to Warner.
The glorious days of flying saucers are over.
Peng Guohua has always been resistant to the acquisition of UFO by Warner, and finally due to the disagreement between the business philosophy and Warner, Peng Guohua resigned with the original management team of UFO and established Fenghua Records, and Warner completely acquired UFO and changed the UFO brand to "Warner UFO" (Warner Music and UFO Records are juxtaposed).
In the chaotic situation of personnel changes, Warner UFO's operating performance and market share fell into a downturn in the mid-90s, and the singers who belonged to it jumped ship or did not renew their contracts after the expiration of their contracts, and the company once presented only two well-known singers, Zheng Xiuwen and Kwok Fucheng.
Peng Guohua invited Li Qing to dinner, just to win over Li Qing and prepare for leaving Warner.
The pattern of music is too small, and it is not Li Qing's goal, so let alone a flying saucer that falls apart, even a flying saucer in its heyday, and he doesn't want to keep him.
However, it should be perfunctory, Li Qing still has to be perfunctory, after all, at present, he Li's deed of sale is still flying saucer, and he needs a big man to take care of it.
Moreover, Li Qing also sincerely admires Peng Guohua, a legendary musician.
Therefore, Li Qing and Peng Guohua had this meal, which can be regarded as a joy for the guests and hosts.
……
The MV for "Get Moving" was completed in only five days, and the rest is the post-production part.
In these five days, Li Qing also came up with the production plan of the MV of "Kiss Goodbye".
Actually, it's not appropriate to say that it's out, and it's appropriate to say that it should be the production plan of the MV of "Kiss Goodbye".
This kind of thing is not cabbage, and there is something to say, even if Li Qing is open.
Moreover, the time is still so short, Li Qing has to be busy recording the MV of "Move", and in the eyes of outsiders, Li Qing has worked hard to create a good song ("Lovers Are Not Enough").
In the end, the production plan of the "Kiss Goodbye" MV that Li Qing came up with was to modify the "Kiss Goodbye" MV shot by Zhang Xueyou and Zhou Haimei with his thinking and technology that was ahead of the current 20 years.
But what Li Qing didn't expect was that the MV of "Kiss Goodbye" that he fooled out was highly praised by Peng Guohua, "This plan is good, recall the story of the past two people in the form of MVs, touching people's hearts, yellowed old photos, rotten diaries are scattered all over the place, everything that was beautiful in the past has been taken away by time, leaving only pieces of sad memories...... Okay, great, and the production cost is not high, Li Qing, you are really a genius!"
Since Peng Guohua has said that he has said everything, what is Li Qing hesitating about, let's shoot.
So, Li Qing found two celebrities who will be very famous in the future - Lin Zhiling and Jia Jingwen among a large number of models.
Lin Zhiling was born in Beitai, and studied in Dongmen National Primary School and Zhongzheng National High School in North Taichung District respectively.
Jia Jingwen and Lin Zhiling debuted at about the same time - it was also the year before last, Jia Jingwen debuted in the showbiz because of the filming of the Taste of Love Niu Niu Sweet Eight Treasures advertisement.
For now, relying on her father to know a lot of people in the entertainment industry, Jia Jingwen is going a little smoother than Lin Zhiling, who is still academically focused - in addition to being a model, Jia Jingwen also starred in her first TV series "Jia Jia Fu", and this year she participated in the urban drama "Hen with Duckling" and the emotional drama "Cool and Warm Season".
……
UFO Records, in Li Qing's temporary office.
After looking at the young Lin Zhiling and Jia Jingwen for a while, Li Qing turned his head and said to Lin Zhiling and Jia Jingwen's agent: "You guys go out, I want to talk to the two artists alone." ”
Lin Zhiling's agent Lin Jianhuan discussed with Li Qing: "Mr. Li, Zhiling has never had the experience of facing this kind of thing alone, or let me stay with her." ”
Jia Jingwen's agent also said: "Jingwen is more introverted, I don't stay with her, she is nervous." ”
What Li Qing hates the most is the actor's agent!
Directors and actors need face-to-face communication to deeply understand and analyze the roles they want to play, so that they can select the right actors and produce good works.
But since the agent came out, before the official start of filming, it is difficult for the director to see the actor again, especially when the director's reputation is not big enough and the actor is on fire!
In the previous life, Li Qing often faced this situation, and many times, he had to talk to the agents of those actors about a lot of messy things, such as what kind of treatment their artists should have, how long their artists can only give the crew, what taboos their artists have, etc., ......etc., etc., etc.
After chatting about these things, actors with a bit of professionalism will meet with the director once or twice to talk about the role, of course, limited to the director, there is no need to think about executive directors like Li Qing, as for those popular actors who have no professionalism, even the director may not be able to meet before filming starts.
Some people may ask, so how do you shoot this?
Why can't you shoot, you can't just change you to an executive director who can shoot, so Li Qing and his group of executive directors came up with crooked tricks such as teleprompters (some directly let others read the words, and the actors only open their mouths), cutouts, and difficult stand-ins and so on.
And that's actually pretty good.
Once Li Qing went to a variety show to make a cameo director, but he met an agent whose card was too big to work.
The rehearsal was about to begin, and Li Qing finally found the agent, and then asked, "Can I come to the rehearsal?"
The agent didn't answer and asked, "How many rehearsals are we having?"
Li Qing said: "First lottery." ”
The agent asked, "Why do you draw first?" ”
Li Qing said: "Then the post-color." ”
The agent asked again: "Why the post-lottery?" ”
Li Qing pressed the fire and said, "Then it's not colorful, go straight on." ”
The agent asked, "Why not?"
At that time, Li Qing wanted to point to the agent's nose and ask, "What do you want to do?"
But in the end, Li Qing, who needed that job very much, still endured it.
Of course, it can't be said that this is all about the agent, after all, the entertainment industry was that kind of atmosphere at that time.
But although Li Qing understands this truth, he is still an agent who hates actors!
In the previous life, Li Qing endured, and that was because Li Qing needed to survive.
Now, Li Qing has already hung up, and he still endures bird feathers?
Li Qing's face sank, and he said: "If you go out now, I will leave these two models, and I will not lose any money for you, otherwise you will take them away, and I promise that the flying saucer will never see any artists you brought again!"
Jia Jingwen's agent opened his mouth and wanted to say, "You mainland boy is so big!"
But before she could speak, Lin Jianhuan, who was well-informed, smiled at Li Qing, and then turned around and walked out of Li Qing's office.
Seeing Lin Jianhuan leave, Jia Jingwen's agent hesitated for a moment, then nodded at Li Qing, and then walked out of Li Qing's office.
Waiting for Jia Jingwen's agent to close the door, Li Qing's tense face instantly relaxed, and then said to Lin Zhiling and Jia Jingwen: "The reason why I let them out is actually for your own good, there are three MVs I want to shoot, one has a kiss scene, and the other has a bed scene, if they are here, it will definitely affect your decision." ”
