"What's wrong with you, Amo, are you worried about the box office of your "Counting Dead Grass", or are you worried about the sales of Zhou Huimin's "Exclusive Audition" album, or are you unwilling to go to Los Angeles with me in the first place?" Since getting on the plane, Mo Fei has been frowning a little, He Chaoqiong is very sensitive to think that Mo Fei thinks that he is in the way, and it is not easy to ask clearly, so he can only put his own question at the end.

How could Mo Fei not understand the meaning of these words, turned his head and looked at He Chaoqiong, who was even a little careful, and did not have the temper of the gambling king's daughter at all, and said with a smile: "Don't think about it, it's not three." Zhou Xingchi's status as the king of comedy has gradually stabilized now, and Xu Guanwen is now at most tied with him, and the movie "Counting Dead Grass" is not my bragging, although it can't beat the films "Miss Beauty Pageant" and "Samantha", it is still very sure that it will sell more than 40 million at the box office. As for Zhou Huimin's new album, every song is carefully selected, I dare not say that all classics can be regarded as all masterpieces, what is there to worry about. And you, if I don't want to be with you, how can I get on the plane with you; Even if you have a residence in the United States, you can go to the United States at any time, but this section is my charter cabin, and you can't enter without a ticket, I really don't know where you have so many ideas. ”

It turns out that in history, "Counting Dead Grass" sold more than 27 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office in the 97 years when the Hong Kong film world was in a big downturn, and now the Hong Kong film market is simply boiling, and it is not difficult to sell 40 million.

Zhou Huimin's new album "Exclusive Audition" also took a lot of effort to create. In addition to the song "Lonely Like the Wind" that was borrowed from Huang Zhan's hand on "Asian Idol", which was a cover of Luo Dayu's "Wild Lilies Have Spring". In addition to the freshly baked "Drifting Snow" at the New Year's Eve party, there are also four songs by singers from other lives covering Meng Tingwei's songs. They are Feng Baijuan's cover of "Whose Tears Are Flying" Cantonese version of "Whenever the Wind Rises", Huang Baoxin's cover of "Silent Rain" Cantonese version of "Who Says Wild Flowers Will Not Be Sincere", Chen Huixian's cover of "Look at the Face of the Moon" Cantonese version of "Moon", and Xu Qiuyi's cover of "Come to Taipei to See the Rain in Winter" Cantonese version of "Secretly Miss You", of which the song "Secretly Miss You" In order to pay tribute to the original creator, Zheng Danrui was specially used to do the narration of "You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery".

In addition, Zheng Xiuwen covered the Cantonese version of Feng Xiyu's "Proud-of-You" "Lifelong Beauty", which was also covered by other singers in the original history, which was very popular; Hui Qiuyi and Zhang Zhilin covered the Cantonese version of "Modern Love Story" of the Little Tigers' "Call You My-Love"; An English song. It is the title song "Playing-My-Game" of the two million-selling album of the Norwegian elf Lynne Marlene who won the MTV Nordic Most Popular Award in 99, and the Chinese song title is "Freedom"; These three songs are also good songs that have been popular for a while.

The title song of the album of the same name "Exclusive Audition" is a rather crazy song in the original history, Zheng Xiuwen is a cover of "Wow" by South Korean electronic music queen Lee Jung-hyun, which is definitely a very conceptual music in this era. Originally, "Playing-My-Game" and "Beautiful for Life" were also in the range of title songs, but these two songs are English songs, which tend to confuse the concept of the whole album. The style of the other song is relatively soft, and it can't highlight the "all-round" meaning of the album, and the teasing of the ears is not very powerful, and in the end, it is not necessary to change the original song "Infatuation for Love" originally sung by Zhou Huimin in the original album to this "Exclusive Audition" as the title song.

The ten songs are divided into four different styles, either soft, gentle, or sunny. or vigorous, showing all the performances that a singer should have, and the songs are all high-quality, it is strange that such an album is not easy to buy, of course there is no reason to worry.

It's not really thinking about it. It's the title of a movie, and I'm a little unsure of which one to use for a while. He Chaoqiong asked. It reminds Mo Fei that Miss He Si seems to have some appreciation for movies, so it is better to ask her opinion, maybe you can give a hint or even an answer.

Rubbing his forehead, which was a little tired because of the long wrinkle, he said: "Actually, I'm thinking about the title of a movie, the English name has been booked, but the Chinese title is a little undecided, why don't you help me come up with an idea?" ”

"Okay, then you can hear it, maybe I can help." He Chaoqiong is still very happy and willing to ask Mo Fei for help, which shows that she not only talks to Mo Fei in movies, nor does she only pull Mo Fei to donate, but also plays a role in other aspects.

To decide on a suitable title, of course, you have to talk about the general content of the story, fortunately, this cabin is all packaged, and I don't worry about others listening, so I took a sip of water and said: "This is a movie with North America and Europe as the main market, about an advertising agency manager Jack, a typical machismo, who is wrapped in a wonderful single life after divorcing his wife." Jack is a natural adventurous personality, and he has been successful in his adventures, in order to climb to a higher position in the company, he always puts more energy into the mall, and his relationship with his daughter is becoming more and more strange because of less togetherness and more separation.

But it didn't take long for his dream to be shattered, and the company's top brass believed that women were the main force of consumption, so a female creative director was needed to take charge. The first thing the new female boss Nia did on her first day in office was to give each of her managers and creative staff a box of feminine products to make them think of ways to sell the products. This made Jack, who was bent on promotion, very depressed and unconvinced, and complained a lot to the new female boss.

For the sake of work and income, Jack had to grit his teeth and swallow his anger, but one day after saying bad things about his new boss with a few colleagues at a bar, an accident happened. When Jack went home to take a shower, he accidentally passed out after being electrocuted, but when he woke up, he found that he had a special ability to hear women's hearts. This new feature allows Jack to have a great rapport with his female colleagues at work, and to mix well outside of work. Even the relationship with his daughter has improved a lot, from the previous machismo to a popular new good man.

Nia is an excellent creative director. Classic ideas often pop into his head, and Jack uses his special abilities to take all of Nia's ideas for himself, and has achieved unprecedented success in his career. Maybe it's because of guilt, or some other reason, Jack slowly sprouts love for Nia, but unfortunately, the company is because of Jack's excellent performance. It's time to fire Nia as a front-line rescuer......

I plan to shoot this film in Hong Kong to test the waters, see the effect before starting to shoot the English version, the English version of the title I plan to call "hat-omen-ant", but the Chinese version of the title I don't know whether to literally translate as "What Women Want" or another name, such as eavesdropping on women's hearts, listening to women's hearts, or calling men 100% or something, you help me think about it. ”

"100% men?" He Chaoqiong rolled her eyes and said, "You are the top producer in Hong Kong." How could you come up with such a frustrating title, it's better to use eavesdropping, or I'll help you think of one. ”

"I also think it's frustrating, so I put it at the end, but I didn't plan to use such a title, but I just took it out to remind you." Mo Fei said a little weakly. He really felt that the name "100% man" was quite frustrating, and he really couldn't figure out who did the translation in his previous life, and actually used such a bad name.

This film was a pretty good movie in a previous life, selling more than $370 million worldwide, even with Mel Gibson and Helen Hunter and Marissa Tomei, three Oscar winners. brought a lot of box office appeal, and the credit of the script cannot be denied. You must know that there are countless superstars who have lost a lot of money in filmmaking.

In the previous life, there was also a director in the mainland who remade this film, and at that time, the Chinese superstar Andy Lau, who has achieved the status of the king for many years, and the top Chinese actress Gong Li co-starred, but in the end, it only ended up with a remake that could be guaranteed, and the remake was a great failure.

I remember that the director also said before the remake that there is a lot of difference between his work and the original, the heroine in the original work does not have many scenes, the characters are not three-dimensional enough, and the conflict and interaction between the male and female protagonists are not reflected to the greatest extent, and the feelings of the story are not rich enough, and he will correct these problems after the remake, and add more plots and bridges that meet the tastes of the Chinese.

But after the film was released, it was far from seeing the so-called big changes, and even more than ten minutes less than the original work, and the advertising placement was particularly hard, which made it difficult for the audience to accept, and the only highlight of the film was the mercenary boss played by the veteran movie star Li Chengru. And in the end, there were rumors that the screenwriter was hacked by the producer, or it can be said that from the beginning of preparing for the remake, the film was doomed to failure.

The movie was released in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore and other regions, and did not get much box office, which is not only related to the movie itself, but also has a lot to do with the previous original work. Mel Gibson and Helen Hunter are both top stars in the world, and the original film is also a critically acclaimed film, too many people have seen it, and there is a strict definition in the hearts of the audience, plus a male director's remake of a successful film by a female director, and it is also a film with a "feminist" shadow, the result can be imagined.

What I have to do now is not to keep the art of this film, and this movie doesn't have much artistry to speak of, the most important thing is to ensure the interests of the film. First the Chinese version was filmed in Hong Kong, released in Asia, and then the English version was filmed and released worldwide, but Hollywood films in the 80s really had a small market in Asia, and if you want to get greater benefits in Asia, sometimes you have to choose to do so.

He Chaoqiong pondered for a while, and finally found a title that he thought was quite good, his eyes flashed, and he said to Mo Fei: "Ah Mo, what do you think of the title of 'Heart Thief'?" Doesn't the male protagonist in the film be able to hear the voice of women, and he also used this advantage to steal a lot of other people's ideas or something, and also stole the heroine's heart; This name will make people sound more clear about the playboy image of the male protagonist, and it can also highlight the various obscenities of the male protagonist in the early days, which is somewhat different from the image behind him, causing a contrast in understanding and concept to the audience, and it is easier to arouse people's interest. ”

This is called waking up the person in the dream, could it be that he followed He Chaoqiong's words and thought about it, it was really like that, didn't the remake in the previous life have another film called "The Thief of the Heart", if she didn't say so, she would really ignore it. And this "thief" is a little more appropriate than the "big thief", closer to the actual situation, just use "Heart Thief".

nodded and said: "Well, your title is really good, this movie is called "Heart Thief", it seems that you have a lot of ideas about this work, I can ask you to help when I can't think of a good title in the future." ”

The title of the film was adopted by Mo Fei, He Chaoqiong was quite satisfied, pursed her lips and smiled, but immediately worried about Mo Fei, and asked: "Amo, what about the advertisements in that film, are you going to use the ready-made ones directly, will this be less innovative, and it will also affect the excitement of the movie, I know two advertising companies that are not bad, do you want to find someone to help think about it, with a good idea, it will be easier for you to find a partner?" ”

It's really good at thinking about others, Mo Fei sighed in his heart, judging from He Chaoqiong's performance now, he is indeed an excellent candidate for a good wife, he really can't figure it out, how could Xu Gongzi and He Chaoqiong not get along in his previous life, is it really that Xu Gongzi's lack of progress accounts for a big factor.

However, this life is completely different from the previous life, and there is no need to think about so many irrelevant things, so I threw this little idea away, looked at He Chaoqiong and smiled: "Hehe, this is not difficult for me, and it is not difficult to get a few product advertising ideas." Moreover, Phoenix Culture has already carried out advertising placement in more than a dozen movies such as "Nightclub", "Thief Spy", and "Red Pink Alliance", all of which are very successful cases, and it is not difficult to find two advertisers. ”

This is not a blow, but anyone who is engaged in creation, more than ninety percent will like to watch advertisements, but the top five of the storage in the brain is advertising, and it is too simple to use a few, even the Nike advertisement in the original film "hat-omen-ant", he is a reporter who does not drop a word. And he also made several advertising ideas for others in his previous life, including red wine, electrical appliances, clothing, etc., which is really difficult for him.

"Look at your stinky beauty, the whole world seems to be amazing." He Chaoqiong stretched out his hand and punched Mo Fei on the shoulder, but he had a different calculation in his heart: this is the arrogant nature, not the arrogant kind, this man's proud appearance is too likable, wasn't it because he was so proud that he was attracted to him.

After muttering a few words silently in her heart, He Chaoqiong remembered another thing and said: "By the way, there is one more thing, I was about to tell you just now, how did your "Counting Dead Grass" use the affairs of my second grandfather's family as the theme, and also talked about the life experience of my fifth uncle?" ”

Miss He Si is concerned about this matter, she is worried that Mo Fei used the family affairs of the old lady of the He family to make up the story, which will cause the He family to be dissatisfied with Mo Fei, which is likely to have a bad impact on her and Mo Fei's affairs, she absolutely does not want to see it, now I hope that Mo Fei can have a reasonable explanation, or she can help Mo Fei make up one.

I really didn't expect this, "Counting Dead Grass" used the name "Sir Hossy", which has nothing to do with the old He family, with a puzzled expression, and said: "You think too much, or someone in your family has such thoughts." I'm just borrowing the fame of your second master, and it has nothing to do with them at all, and it has nothing to do with fratricidal or anything like that, is it necessary to be so sensitive? ”

"Well, well, no one in my family has ever said anything about it, but I did think too much." While He Chaoqiong breathed a sigh of relief, he also had a very unnatural expression on his face, is this nothing to worry about. (To be continued.)
