This time, Chu Qing went to the United States, naturally not only to participate in the Nebula Award Gala with Hou Muyun, but also to visit many people, including Short and Tight. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In comparison, the procedure for the distribution of Chinese films in North America is much simpler than that of Hollywood films in China, but it is not very simple, and the most important of them is not to finalize a studio but to finalize a North American film-related union. There are various trade unions in the North American film industry, such as the actors' union, the director's union, the screenwriters' union, etc., and the status of these unions in the North American film industry is similar to the status of a certain bureau in China, although it is not as strong as the latter, but it is also quite strong.

Of course, if you can successfully finalize a bullish studio, then it is not so difficult to deal with a series of things in the future.

This time, "Sword Venerable" was released in North America with not any of the six major studios, but Lucasfilm. As for the reason, it's not complicated.

First, Chu Qing and the company's senior management know each other and have a very good friendship. So far, the main members of the special effects team of "Xuanyuan Sword Master" and "Sword Honor" are ILM, that is, Industrial Light and Magic, which is from Lucasfilm, if it were not for that kind of friendship and friendship, the special effects team would not have agreed to participate in the production of "Xuanyuan Sword Master" so simply at the earliest.

The second is that Chu Qing has discussed with Hou Muyun to set the film as the primary partner and necessary cooperation object if the filming of "Future War" starts. The film is best known for a series or series of films that has supported the entire Lucasfilm, and that is the "Star Wars" series. In terms of sci-fi, especially special effects production, the film industry is absolutely dominant in Hollywood.

In terms of film genre, "Future Wars" has some similarities with Star Wars, especially in terms of special effects, models, props and other aspects, in the eyes of Chu Qing and Hou Muyun, the Studio can give them unimaginable help. Moreover, before that, the film company had also thrown an olive branch to Hou Muyun and Chu Qing, and had the intention of filming and producing "Future War".

If there is a third reason, it really has something to do with Huaxia Capital.

As we all know, five or six years ago, the Walt Disney Company, one of Hollywood's six major studios, spent $4 billion (about half of the stock) to acquire the studio, and Walt Disney has a certain amount of Huaxia capital in it, according to the short and tight statement and Chu Qing's information. In addition, there is currently another Huaxia Capital that has targeted the other half of Lucas's business and has made some progress.

Of course, in this way, "Sword Honor" will naturally be distributed by The Walt Disney Company, and the distribution ability is needless to say.

As for the movie account sharing, Hou Muyun has never asked too much, and in this regard, Chu Qing is much more professional than him.

The official of "Sword Zun" has broken out a little bit at every other point in time these days, making all aspects of the topic of "Sword Zun" continue to rise, and there are still more than two months before the release of the movie, and the amount of topics has reached the overall data after the release of many big-budget movies.

In addition, there are many publicity activities, such as various online advertising spaces and physical advertising spaces - including all kinds of bus stop signs, such as a series of publicity in print media, such as the advance publicity of various movie theater lines, and naturally also include the publicity of TV stations.

The film crew was divided into several ways, and the recording of various programs began at the end of May. In this way, Hou Muyun will naturally be busy again.

For example, the second season of "Returning to the Garden" has been recorded by the crew for several consecutive episodes, in addition to the first season, Nie Pan, Hong Lei, Li Bing and others have appeared, and a few old drama bones have also been specially invited, and the recording effect is very good, allowing the audience to see the life of the old drama bones - of course, this is a later story.

In addition, L.O. and Zhang Ziyi were also invited as surprise guests for the last issue.

This surprise is really not only for the audience, even the program team was shocked!

Zhang Ziyi has naturally participated in the recording of some variety shows, but the number of times is very small, and this kind of reality show that is biased towards life style is definitely the first time.

As for L.O., not to mention, he is definitely an international superstar that the program team didn't dare to invite at all, not to mention that this has just won six Grammys, which is just crazy!

And the most shocking thing for the program team is L.O.'s appearance fee, although it is definitely the top single-issue salary in the industry, it is too profitable for them. If it weren't for Hou Muyun or the movie "Sword Zun", if you want L.O. to participate in the recording of such a program, and then come up with five or even ten times the salary, you can't knock it down!

In addition, the entire crew naturally brushed all the well-known variety shows that will be broadcast from June to August.

Time entered June in this kind of high-intensity and high-frequency recording program, and at the beginning of the 7th, Hou Muyun slowed down the pace a little, and easily spent two days at home only writing and painting live broadcasts.

On this day, Chu Qing got up early in the morning, Hou Muyun was making breakfast, and forced Chu Qing to go to the backyard first to play a set of "morning exercise boxing" that he customized for Chu Qing.

"I've finally been able to have a decent breakfast for a few days."

Hou Muyun was at home, Chu Qing enjoyed it, and was in a better mood after seeing today's exquisite and delicious breakfast: "Well, today is good, a lot of thought has been spent on breakfast, such a mind must be maintained at all times, you can't fish for three days and catch nets for two days." ”

Hou Muyun shook his head and said, "Today is naturally different, it's a holiday!" ”

Chu Qing was stunned for a moment: "What kind of festival is today?" What a festival on June 9th? However, not to mention that today is a good day, the broadcast authorization for the third season of "Xuanyuan Sword Master" will be knocked down today, and the sales will definitely be ......."

As she spoke, Chu Qing figured out that something was wrong, and figured out what Hou Muyun meant by the festival, and rolled her eyes: "Can you be a little positive early in the morning!" ”

Hou Muyun said with a smile: "As the saying goes, the plan of the year lies in the spring, and the plan of the day lies in the morning........

"Fuck off!"

"Okay, listen to you, play!"

"Don't make a fuss, there's a meeting to start later!"

"It's too late to explain, get in the car!"

“……..”

On this day, Chu Qing's time to go to the company for a meeting was postponed a lot.

This "viewing meeting" is similar to the previous one, but the process is faster, it is obvious that these platforms involved in the final viewing want to get the broadcast rights of the third season of "Xuanyuan Sword Master" faster, and the difference from the previous is that this time all the platforms are directly for the exclusive broadcast rights, and none of them have the idea of joint purchase!

As for the reason, it is natural that Blue Whale Satellite TV and Penguin Video, which bought the exclusive broadcast rights of the second season last time, have made a lot of money!

Not only did the advertising fees and ratings of "Xuanyuan Sword Master" rise a lot during the broadcast, but even the overall increase in the whole, which is the most desired result for them to buy exclusive broadcast rights.

The whole bidding process is much more intense than the previous two times, and the final result is also no result for the time being, Qingtian Film and Sky Culture included two of the TV stations and two video websites in the final consideration, and ended the viewing meeting.

Such a move naturally shows that the producer has the idea of starting the price, and the "price" is not only the price, but also the comprehensive consideration of other aspects.

If you want to hit another sales record, to be honest, it doesn't mean as much to the producer as before, Hou Muyun and Chu Qing obviously want to find some "breakthroughs" from this viewing meeting.

Relatively speaking, Chu Qing and Hou Muyun of the producer are not so anxious.

Hou Muyun did not follow up on the follow-up of the film meeting, and handed it all over to Chu Qing, and he plunged into the unfinished later part of the third season of "Xuanyuan Sword Master" and the new album.

The final 12 songs for the new album are three in Mandarin – including one in Wenshi, two in English, and one each in Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi, Arabic, Neon, French and Russian.

The lyrics and recording of this song have been completed, the soundtrack is still being made final revisions, and the MV is already being prepared, so naturally it will be directed by Hou Muyun himself.

At this rate, it is unlikely that the new album will be released to fans at the end of June, but in July, it should be released if there are no problems.

This new album is undoubtedly a new album that is strange to the extreme, and it is easy to hear the extreme, and they are full of expectations and apprehension about the release, the reason is that it is too weird and too good.

L.O. and Shi Fifteen are the latest singers who have auditioned some of the songs, and their evaluation and feeling are the same as those of the members of the studio, anyway, looking at Hou Muyun's eyes is not good.

Another singer who has auditioned some songs is Adele, in June, she flew from England to Shanghai, the main purpose is to record the song, this song is the melody that Hou Muyun sent her before and a fragment of "Future War", as Hou Muyun expected, Adele really made up for this "incomplete" melody, and the final completeness is very high, and the sound is naturally off the charts.

To be honest, Hou Muyun didn't expect the final result to be so good, and what he didn't expect was that Adele had such a deep understanding of the fragment of "Future War", which shows her full thinking about this paragraph from the melody and lyrics.

The title of this song is called "Everything has soul", which translates into Chinese as "all things have soul", and the lyrics and lyrics were completed by Hou Muyun and Adele, and the singing and production were also completed by the two, and finally, the song was released as a single before Hou Muyun's new album.

Saying that it is a single is actually not a single in the true sense of the word, because there are two versions of this song, one is an English version and one is a Chinese version, and both versions are sung by two people.

Of course, the lyrics of the Chinese version were written by Hou Muyun independently, and the lyrics have a certain correlation with the English version, but there are some differences.

As for Adele's singing of Chinese lyrics, there are naturally a lot of interesting things in the middle, but the final feeling is very beautiful, and Adele's biting has a very unique charm, which also gives this version a different aura from the English version.

On June 22, the single was released, not only in China and North America, but in England, but also around the world.

The cooperation between the two is undoubtedly the best publicity!

As soon as this single was released, it appeared on various music charts around the world like a rocket, and not only in the English version, but also in the Chinese version. Of course, relatively speaking, except for Huaxia, the English version is more powerful, and as for the time it has set a record for the number one position in the North American music charts, that is a story for another time.

According to statistics on the 23rd, within 24 hours of the first day of the single's release, the world set a terrifying sales record of 10 million to the extreme!

10 million sales a day!

Among them, 3.8 million physical albums were sold, and 6.5 million digital albums including iTunes!

Among them, the total sales of Huaxia are 5 million, the total sales of North America are 3 million, and the total sales of other parts of the world are more than 2 million!

Digital album sales and putting aside it first, the single-day sales of 3.8 million in this entity are really dumbfounded!

You must know that before that, the record of single sales in global history was more than one million in a single week, and this record was also set by Adele herself, "Hello".

One million in a single week, 3.8 million in a single day!

You can imagine how big a difference there is between the two!

Such sales results can no longer be described as miracles, only miracles!

The global music industry was not boiling at the time of this number, but was completely silent and speechless!

With one more Hou Muyun, will there be such a big change?

Is it just because of Hou Muyun's fame, his fame in the Chinese market, or is it a chemical reaction of the two?

Or, is there also a reason for fans of "Future Wars"?

All of a sudden, musicians around the world were frantically discussing and analyzing the reasons for this temperament after the silence.

As for the people who eat melons, they are boiling, and the people who eat melons in China have one more attribute, that is, they like to see it.

There is also one thing that I like to see, that is, on June 24, Hou Muyun appeared in the competition arena of the Snooker China Open in the new year.

Like last year, Hou Muyun is still competing as a celebrity wild card player this time, but the difference is that this time the competition is not a real competition, but an exhibition match.

That's right, snooker's exhibition match!

This is an additional "event" added by the World Taiwan Federation to the China Open, and this exhibition match is the only one to appear at the China Open.

The reason for this arrangement is that Hou Muyun is unwilling to participate in the main competition again, as for the reason for not participating in the main competition, Hou Muyun did not say, because he was afraid of being "beaten" if he said it. You can't say that you have won the championship once, and you don't want to continue to win it.

And such an arrangement can still play a propaganda role for the official.

Hou Muyun was not the only one who participated in this exhibition match, but also Ding Hui, Rocket Osha and Selby, who were officially invited.

Yes, the four of them play the same game in order to play the word "performance" in the exhibition match.
