Strategically it is necessary to despise the enemy, and tactically it is necessary to attach importance to the enemy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although Lu Chen has strong confidence in the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story" led by himself, he will never underestimate any opponent because of this, especially a highly competitive film of the same genre like "Painted Skin".

"Painted Skin" is a blockbuster cast by Huaguan Pictures into Xiangjiang, this film adapted from "Strange Tales from Liao Zhai" claims to have a total investment of more than 100 million yuan, a strong cast, and a large number of popular stars from across the Taiwan Strait, and it is said that the post-production special effects were signed to Xiangjiang's new visual films.

New Vision Pictures is a well-known film and television post-production special effects production company in Hong Kong, its founder has worked in a large special effects company in Hollywood for ten years, accumulated rich experience, returned to Hong Kong to start a business and recruited a large number of professionals, participated in the production of a number of blockbusters in Hong Kong and the mainland, has a good reputation in the industry.

And Ding Tai, the director of "Painted Skin", has two Best Director trophies at the Xiangjiang Film Awards.

Huaguan Pictures and Xingyi Entertainment teamed up to put on such a big position and invested so much in "Painted Skin", Cui Xingxian naturally did not allow failure, and it was imperative to win the quota for the green channel.

Of course, it is not only for the film support policy of Xiangjiang, but also to expand the film market in Xiangjiang, and at the same time radiate the treasure island and Southeast Asia.

This is an important part of Huaguan Pictures' plan to go south.

In such a situation, Lu Chen's "A Chinese Ghost Story" has naturally become a rather conspicuous stumbling block, if Lu Chen is just an unknown newcomer, Cui Xingxian will not care at all, just crush the past with his works.

However, now Lu Chen is a hot new star in China, and the great success of the two TV series has made him a well-known existence in the film and television industry, and Cui Xingxian can't ignore it.

The most important thing is that Lu Chen's second TV series "Full House of Romance" once defeated a strong opponent with a weak enemy and a strong beauty, which almost disgraced Shonan Satellite TV.

When "Full House of Romance" premiered, it was Shonan Satellite TV's annual drama "The Boundless Sea of Love" that competed head-on with it, but before it was finished, the latter was forced to change the broadcast time to avoid the edge.

With this vivid example of the past, Cui Xingxian naturally regards Lu Chen as the number one threat, even if "A Chinese Ghost Story" is much weaker than "Painted Skin" in terms of investment scale and cast, he does not dare to take it lightly.

If he repeats the mistake of "The Boundless Sea of Love", Cui Xingxian's trouble will be big, TV can also change the broadcast time, it is impossible to change the movie when it is released, and a defeat is the result of a failure!

It is precisely because of Cui Xingxian's attention to Lu Chen, coupled with the personal emotional factor, that Honghua harassed "A Chinese Ghost Story" incident.

Although Cui Xingxian's outstretched minions were cleanly cut off, he obviously won't give up because of this, if he can't do it secretly, then come out clearly, now Huaguan Pictures and Xingyi Entertainment have recognized "A Chinese Ghost Story" as the number one opponent and arranged a corresponding publicity plan.

The root cause of Jiang Wei's provocation against Lu Chen is here.

Ye Xuan had a little understanding of such a complicated internal situation, but he had no intention of getting involved, he changed the topic very wittily and chatted with Lu Chen about the theme of this salon.

Since its inception, the Bell Tower Music Salon has successfully held hundreds of performances, and almost all the big names in the Xiangjiang pop music scene have participated, so it has a great influence in the industry.

Traditionally, each music salon has a discussion topic, which can be broad or focused, such as the development trend of Chinese pop music, or the stylistic evolution of Cantonese love songs.

The atmosphere of free and relaxed discussion is the characteristic of the Bell Tower Music Salon.

And the theme of today's music salon is a bit big - the past, present and future of Xiangjiang pop music!

To be honest, such a big topic is enough to write a thick collection of essays, and Hong Kong Pop Music, as the founder of Chinese pop music, really has so much to say.

Of course, Ye Xuan knew that this topic was too big to be clear for a while, so he didn't talk about the past and future of Xiangjiang pop music, but only talked about the present, saying that he wanted to hear Lu Chen's opinion.

The dilemma that Xiangjiang pop music is facing now, even outsiders can see it clearly, but in the game, it is undoubtedly very difficult to break the situation.

As the so-called authorities are obsessed with bystanders, perhaps an excellent musician from the mainland like Lu Chen may be able to give some useful advice.

Perhaps it was this topic that interested the guests attending the salon, so many people soon gathered around, either out of good-natured seriousness or not so good-natured ready to pick on the thorns.

Although most of the insiders present met Lu Chen for the first time, they basically knew Lu Chen's origin.

This young artist from the mainland has been in the limelight in Xiangjiang recently.

Facing all kinds of eyes from around him, Lu Chen was a little speechless.

Ye Xuan gave him a big question, if he really talked about it, he couldn't finish it for a few days and nights.

Xiangjiang pop music began in the mid-to-late 70s, and the Xiangjiang music scene began to popular cover Japanese songs, which, like the economic status of Xiangjiang, entered a period of rapid rise, and it was common for popular singers to release two or three films a year.

Due to the lack of local creators, "Japanese opera and Cantonese lyrics" became a trend, and a number of singers who became famous through cover songs also appeared until the 80s.

In the 80s, Xiangjiang was innocent and bright, with a brilliant future fantasy for the future, and the times were rumbling forward, and everything was not enough to worry about.

In the mid-to-late 80s, the people of Hong Kong began to emphasize "perceptual consumption", and everyone pursued a unique personal style, trying to get rid of the singular consumption to show personal taste.

This social trend has brought new demand, including pop music, and the cover of "Japanese opera Cantonese lyrics" can no longer meet the appreciation needs of the majority of fans, and record companies have begun to pay attention to originality and recruit a large number of professional songwriters.

As a result, Hong Kong's pop music has entered a new period of development, with good songs and classics emerging one after another, and a large number of them have been imported into the mainland, which has had a huge impact on the pop music in the mainland.

The 80s and 90s were the golden age of Xiangjiang pop music, with kings and queens leading the way, and lyrics and songs emerged one after another.

However, in the new century, Xiangjiang's pop music gradually failed to keep up with the times, the king and queen gradually grew old, the inspiration of the songwriters and composers was dry, and the new generation of singers and artists learned from Japanese and Korean stars and embarked on the idol route.

History seems to be reincarnated, and today's Xiangjiang pop music scene has become a trend of imitation and plagiarism, but the object of imitation and cover has increased from Japan to Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, and singers have long ceased to make money by selling albums and records.

Celebrity singers selling their faces and selling handsomeness are the mainstream, and where the interests of major entertainment media companies lie, how can they abandon this good way to make money?

As for the pop music scene in Hong Kong, who cares whether they live or die!

The dilemma is here, how difficult it is to break the situation, the current situation of the Xiangjiang pop music scene is similar to that of the mainland, where does Lu Chen have the ability to scold Fang Xuan and break the dilemma?

But if he doesn't say anything, or only says a little nonsense, he will inevitably be looked down upon.

After thinking about it, Lu Chen still decided to say something.
