Chapter 38 Popularity
"But music production itself costs money, we are not like other industries, such as writers, you can write with a piece of paper, to make a mature musical work, you need at least a musical instrument, such as a piano, how to do it will cost tens of thousands, there is a recording studio, no matter how cheap, it will cost millions, how can we save the cost of making a song, at least it will cost tens of thousands, right? But people take it for granted that music should be free, and if you say we're going to survive, they're going to scold you and say you're making music for money. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Big brother, we're going to eat! So, I'm just quitting the music industry!"
"We Han people think, I used to think so, lyrics should be the most important thing in music, we look at the top 10 songs in the Chinese chart, basically the lyrics are beautiful, but the melody is just like that, even very earthy and vulgar!
"But music is more than that, it should be something that expresses all the emotions of every different nationality and every different level of people. ”
"Of course, I have now heard that the state has strengthened formal management in this regard, and has begun to pay attention to the protection of music and respect our copyright. ”
"It's a pity, I can't go back, if you think about it, so many musical talents have been lost, for example, the few people who followed me as a band a few years ago have gone to other careers, selling houses or something, people have studied music for more than ten years, but then they can only sell houses!"
"So, don't blame us for not being able to write any good music, people don't respect us and we think we should bring you good music, why?"
"Okay, that's all for this issue, this announcement is a thing, it's also an advertisement, my first directorial work "33 Days of Broken Love" will land in major theaters on the 9th of next month, that is, on April 9th, please support everyone!
At the end of the recording of the show, Shen Lin looked at Li Zhonghe, and Li Zhonghe also looked at him.
"Let's not eat roast leg of lamb. ”
Shen Lin said suddenly.
"Okay, let's eat!"
The two had a tacit understanding and didn't talk about the deletion, they just talked about the relevant content of the recording of "Linxing", for example, Shen Lin proposed that some historical content could be recorded, Li Zhonghe was very much in favor, as long as it didn't involve politics, he didn't care.
Of course, Shen Lin is also considered to be wise and wise, and it is unlikely that he will take the initiative to involve the forbidden area above.
had a very pleasant meal, of course, the money for the meal was paid by Li Zhonghe, and he could be reimbursed.
……
The later stage of "33 Days of Broken Love" was basically completed, except for the initial scenes about the breakup scene, Shen Lin decided to invite Zhang Guoli and Deng Jie, and by the way, Zhang Jie and Xie Na were also invited.
The meaning of the cameo is very simple, you just need to treat every film and television work as a delicacy, the protagonist and supporting roles are the ingredients and ingredients of the dish, the behind-the-scenes team is the chef, and the guest actors are like crystal radish flowers on the plate.
It's hard to say that a meal without radish flowers will affect the taste, but with such a well-decorated decoration, it will make you feel that this is a high-class feast.
So, in domestic TV dramas, when did cameo appearances appear?
In the memory of most viewers, the first large-scale cameo appeared in the sitcom "I Love My Home", which aired in 1994. At that time, sitcoms had just entered China and were still a novelty. Because the crew has limited funds, but wants to expand its influence, director Yingda came up with a way: ask friends everywhere to find "wrists" to make cameos. As a result, Liu Wei, Pu Cunxin, Wang Zhiwen, Jiang Shan, Li Xuejian, Sima Nan, Uncle Ge, etc. in "I Love My Home" have achieved such an "unprecedented" ultra-luxury guest lineup.
However, back then, this kind of temporary performance was not called a cameo, but a "guest star" - a guest star, which is the English "gueststar".
The scenes of "guest stars" are generally fuller, and since they come, they will be ruthlessly used in one episode, such as the large-scale use of "guest stars" in the NBC hit drama "Friends", and there are countless big-name stars who have appeared, such as Bruce Willis, such as Brad Pitt, etc.
With the development and prosperity of the domestic TV drama market, guest performances are being used more and more frequently.
In recent years, celebrity cameos have even become one of the most important selling points of a drama. For example, "Love Apartment 4" broadcast in 2014 earned enough eyeballs due to the cameos of big-name stars such as Hu Ge, He Yu, Xie Na, Du Haitao, Lin Zhilin, etc., and became the hottest comedy of the year.
It is worth mentioning that unlike the early "I Love My Home", in recent years, most of the guest actors in the play are just "gimmicks" - just show their faces. For example, in "Dragon Gate Dart Game", Li Chen made a cameo appearance as the world's first fast knife player "Jing Yidao", and after a few lines on the stage, he was put down with a stick, purely soy sauce.
It has become a trend for domestic film and television dramas to invite big-name cameos.
Of course, some celebrities' cameos need to be paid, and it is often said that "friendship cameos", because friendship is "priceless", then cameos are also considered "zero pay".
Of course, giving money means that your relationship with the star is not in place.
This point, it is obvious that Shen Lin can't use it, this product is an authentic Beijing Gang, whether it is the background or his friends in the entertainment industry on the surface, the personnel are still good.
It's still possible to invite at least a few big names to make cameos.
Zhang Guoli and his family happily agreed, both of them were from the Beijing Gang.
Since Zhang Guoli came to the capital from Shudu, he has a good relationship with Feng Xiaogang, and he deliberately befriended Huayi, so he has completely gained a firm foothold in the Beijing Gang.
As for Zhang Jie and Xie Na, Zhang Jie was extremely happy, but Xie Na was a little hesitant, and later simply said that she didn't have time!
it! I don't want to come!
So, Shen Lin found Deng Chao and Sun Li again, these two people have always wanted to break into the Beijing Gang, otherwise they would not have starred in "The Legend of Zhen Jin" directed by Zheng Xiaolong
These two pairs are both veteran actors, and there are not many shots, and the difficulty of acting is almost none, so it is easy to pass.
Shen Lin and Zhang Guoli discussed the "Please Answer 2002" that Bao Ye was preparing, and wanted them to play the protagonist's parents, Deng Jie had not appeared on the screen for several years, so she naturally agreed, Zhang Guoli had nothing to hesitate, coupled with Bao Ye's reputation, the two happily agreed.
The affection between Deng Chao and Sun Li is a bit difficult, after all, the next movie in Shen Lin's plan is "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", and there is really no role suitable for them.
"Brother Chao, if you don't dislike it, how about we work together on a drama next year?"
