Chapter 226: The Scar of Genius
After finally getting the problem of reasonable positioning, the next shooting was much easier.
The plot was originally simple, plus Chen Lang was young and had no big stars, and he even often said funny jokes to make everyone laugh.
Andy Lau, Leung Jiahui and Jing Daiyin have no pressure and embarrassment, and the atmosphere is very relaxed, which also meets To Qifeng's requirements.
Therefore, in just one morning, I basically finished shooting a quarter of the MV.
Of course, MVs, like movies, have a lot of places that need to be shot repeatedly, and there will be multiple sets of shots for one picture.
This allows the director to have more material for the final cut, so that he can create a more suitable and perfect combination of images.
During the lunch break, Chen Shufen came to the crew with the meal ordered from the hotel, and after condolences to everyone, she pulled Chen Lang to the side.
"How was it like shooting a music video?" Chen Shufen asked.
"It doesn't feel anything, it's like a camera in front of an interview." Chen Lang shrugged relaxedly.
"That's good, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it." Chen Shufen nodded with a smile.
"There are still three days before the album is officially released, and two weeks after its release in Hong Kong, the album will be released simultaneously in Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea."
"Two weeks after its release in Hong Kong, it will be released all over Asia?" Chen Lang was shocked when he heard this.
It seems that the sales of his first record of nearly 2 million copies in Asia have made Huaxing Records full of confidence, and now they have high hopes for this "catchy".
"Yes, this time, the Southeast Asian companies that worked with us before the record was recorded came to the door and asked for cooperation, not to mention Taiwan's Haishan Rolling Stone Records.
As for the Japanese and Korean publishers, they also showed a lot of enthusiasm after we reached out.
The first cooperation achieved a win-win result, which made everyone full of confidence in the second cooperation. Chen Shufen said happily.
"Hopefully this record will do better." Chen Lang is also full of ambition and is full of expectations for the sales of "Catchy".
"Hehe, after all, there is the result of the first record, plus you are the new best newcomer in the Hong Kong music scene, and the youngest winner of the top ten Chinese golden songs, this record we directly poured 50W, and we have high expectations for the performance of your new record."
Chen Shufen directly burst out of the reserve of 50W, which is ten platinum, and Chen Lang's heart jumped when he heard it, this was really full of confidence.
"Okay, I have to say that Sister Chen, you are really courageous." Chen Lang gave a thumbs up.
"I don't have faith in you." Chen Shufen said with a smile, "This time, we still waited until a week after the release of the record to start promotion, but we could only promote it in Hong Kong for a week." ”
"Why is it only a week, is the company really so sure?" Chen Lang was puzzled when he heard this.
"The company was very confident, but we only advertised it in Hong Kong for a week because we received a lot of invitations from companies in Southeast Asia, as well as your own company in Taiwan.
Please be able to participate in promotional activities in Southeast Asia and Taiwan during the release of the record to stimulate record sales.
Of course, there is also the fact that there are a lot of your fans in these places, and they are eager to meet you.
These fans have written a lot of letters to these companies asking you to go to their countries and regions to promote, which is also an important reason why Southeast Asian companies take the initiative to seek cooperation. Chen Shufen explained.
"In other words, this propaganda is going to run all over Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia?" Chen Lang was both excited and a little painful when he heard this.
I'm excited that I have a lot of fans all over Asia, and it's painful to be a trapeze, and I'm afraid that my wrists will be swollen again.
"Not only Taiwan and Southeast Asia, but also Japan and South Korea are all in this promotional activity, and it may take more than half a month to complete the promotional activities in these countries and regions, and by the time we return to Hong Kong, I am afraid it will already be April." Chen Shufen said.
"Okay, let's just think it's a public trip." Chen Lang nodded with a wry smile.
"Well, I can only work hard for the sales of the record, the specific itinerary is still in contact with various companies, and there is no specific determination, the most important thing now is to shoot the MV, waiting for the official release in Hong Kong on March 1." Chen Shufen nodded from Chen Lang and said with satisfaction.
"I know, shooting the MV is quite easy, and it should be completed in time." Chen Lang said.
"Okay, you guys just keep working hard, I'll go back to the company and discuss with them about the promotion of the itinerary." After Chen Shufen finished speaking, she turned around and left.
But it seems that I remembered something and turned back.
"By the way, Lang Lang has another thing to tell you, your single "Billiejean" released in Japan has been the runner-up for five consecutive weeks, and now it has sold about 600,000 copies, which is very good." Chen Shufen said with a smile on her face.
"Wulianya!? Who's the champion? Chen Lang heard that the runner-up for five consecutive weeks didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
"The champion is Seiko Matsuda, who has won five consecutive championships, and Seiko Matsuda is now even more popular in Japan than you are in Hong Kong.
Since returning to Japan from the Asian Amateur Singing Competition, she has released several singles that have won the top spot in the charts, and her momentum is like a rainbow, and the results are unbelievably good.
If it weren't for the amazing space steps you had at that time, I'm afraid you really wouldn't be her opponent. Chen Shufen shook her head and said.
I thought that Chen Lang was already a genius enough, but I didn't expect that the development of this Matsuda Seiko in Japan was even more surprising.
Japan is the largest record market in Asia and the second largest in the world, winning five consecutive titles and winning all singles.
This strength and popularity are absolutely explosive, even Chen Lang, who is amazing enough, is a little inferior compared to it.
"I didn't expect Seiko Matsuda to be so powerful." Chen Lang was also shocked when he heard the news.
This brilliant 80s is really helpless, and evil is rampant everywhere.
If Chen Lang knew that Seiko Matsuda would win the first place in the Japanese music charts with 24 consecutive singles, I don't know how he would feel.
"And your apprentice Michael Jackson's "Beatit" also won the third place for five consecutive weeks, and the three of you dominated the top three spots on the Japanese public trust chart for five weeks, and now they are very popular in Japan.
In particular, the space step you performed in the show caused an uproar in Japan, attracting countless young Japanese people to follow suit.
I have to say that Japanese fans are indeed much crazier than Hong Kong fans, even if they are hardcore fans. Chen Shufen smiled and shook her head.
"How crazy can it be?" Chen Lang was a little excited to hear that he had set off a boom in Japan, which is the largest market that Chen Lang has always wanted to occupy.
"I can't tell, but you can only find out if you go to Japan this time and experience it yourself." Chen Shufen said with a smile.
"Okay, let's shoot the MV well, I'm leaving, I'll leave Xu Fang here, and she will send you home at night."
After Chen Shufen left, Chen Lang rested for a while, and then the whole crew started filming again.
The afternoon shooting was mainly to shoot several scenes of Chen Lang alone, doing homework at home, and being bored in a daze, as well as a lonely walk on the side of the road after parting.
Chen Lang filmed the scene where he played alone and did his homework.
Although there were many people standing next to him watching him, Chen Lang had long been accustomed to everyone's gaze.
There was no big explosion of acting skills, but at least he was qualified, and Du Qifeng only passed after shouting the card a few times.
What is more troublesome is that after parting, Chen Lang walked aimlessly on the side of the road alone.
Du Qifeng asked Chen Lang to show a sad and lonely feeling, Chen Lang rolled his eyes when he heard it, and it was this sentimental parting emotion.
Chen Lang had no choice but to use the method he had used to record again, and after preparing alone for a while, his eyes were moist.
Jing Daiyin, Andy Lau, Liang Jiahui and other people present were shocked, could it be that Chen Lang is still an acting school, but this kind of emotion has been brewed for a short time, which is also too genius.
Chen Lang saw everyone's surprised expressions, but Chen Lang, who was immersed in memories at this time, ignored it completely, and then started walking.
Chen Lang in front of the camera was expressionless, but his moist eyes and frowning brows conveyed Chen Lang's different emotions at this time.
The camera turned to Chen Lang's back, the empty countryside, the sunset in the west, set off a lonely figure, and Du Qifeng secretly applauded.
I really didn't expect Chen Lang, who was only 17 years old, to be able to show such an artistic conception, is it not only a genius singer, but also a genius actor?
Andy Lau and Leung Jiahui looked at Chen Lang's performance and looked at each other, thinking that they were better than Chen Lang in this regard, but they didn't expect Chen Lang's acting skills to be so good, it was really speechless, this Chen Lang was too demonic.
Jing Daiyin on the side looked at Chen Lang's lonely back attentively, as if she could feel Chen Lang's thoughts, and her heart was also full of sourness, and she was stunned for a while.
Chen Lang can perform so well, it can only be regarded as God's arrangement.
Who would have thought that Chen Lang, who is talented and can be called a demon, is a traverser.
The pain of never being able to see his relatives again has already made Chen Lang suffer.
It's just that these were buried in the depths of Chen Lang's heart, and now these scars are uncovered again and again, which also makes Chen Lang miserable.
Du Qifeng had already shouted "perfect" and signaled that this set of shots had passed.
It's just that Chen Lang is young after all, and if you let him insist on physical exercise, he can grit his teeth and persevere, but he is too immature in terms of emotional control.
This was the case with the previous early love incident, although it is more mature now, but the feelings are too elusive, even if you are dozens of years old, I am afraid that you can't control the sadness.
So although Chen Lang now knew that the camera had passed, he still couldn't hold back the sourness in his heart, and two lines of tears flowed on Junxiu's face.
