Chapter 124: Wishing you prosperity
On January 15, Zhou Ze returned to Hangzhou.
He had a phone call with Chu Rongyu last night, she still has classes today, and she won't have time until after five o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhou Ze didn't tell her that he was coming back today and was going to surprise her.
But it's only ten o'clock in the morning, and it's still early for the other party to get out of class, so he's going to do other things first.
After a while, Wansheng will launch New Year's candy in the national New Year's market in the style of 'gold coin candy, gold bar candy, ingots candy' and so on.
In the previous life, also in the New Year market of 1994, Hsu Fu Chi launched Hsu Fu Chi New Year Candy specially designed for the New Year, which successfully led the New Year candy culture.
Entering the market with New Year's candy laid the foundation for the operation of the candy industry.
In this time and space, Wansheng and Hsu Fu Chi will compete on the same stage in the New Year's market to see who is better.
Thinking that he had made countless preparations and arrangements since he was reborn for half a year, and finally had to wrestle with the candy giant, Zhou Ze was a little excited and looking forward to it.
Xu Fuji has strong financial support, has such a background as a Taiwanese businessman, and his comprehensive strength is not a little stronger than Wansheng, but Zhou Ze is not worried at all.
He has confidence in himself and in Wansheng.
Because to this day, Zhou Ze is still preparing for the success of Wansheng New Year's candy.
He is going to shoot a promotional MV for Wansheng's New Year's candy today, and as for the theme song, it is naturally a classic song copied from later generations.
"Wait, I also have a secondary school degree, big and small, I am also a cultural person, how can the things of cultural people be called copying, that is called borrowing, but I have borrowed more than 100 million points."
"Teacher Ma, I'm going to trouble you again." Zhou Ze said to Ma Yun with a smile.
"Mr. Zhou is too polite, where can a little thing be considered a trouble." Ma Yun smiled and shook his head, finding powerful and reliable directors, actors and singers is a difficult task for others, but for him it is a piece of cake and no difficulty.
Because his father is a well-known figure in the music industry in the entire Zhijiang Province.
He served as a member of the third council of the Huaguo Quyi Association, the second deputy secretary-general of the Zhijiang Quyi Artists Association, and this year he served as the director of the Zhijiang Quyi Artists Association. Mat.
Ma Yuan's father has such a lofty status in the music industry, and Ma Yuan naturally has a bit of a thin face.
Find a director with good skills, a few singers who sing well, and actors with good acting skills are simply handy.
Zhou Ze and Ma Yun took a taxi to a teahouse in Hangzhou, and at the door of the teahouse they saw a tall and thin middle-aged man.
"Brother Liu", Ma Yun greeted the middle-aged man with a smile when he saw him.
The middle-aged man also raised his hand to greet Ma Yun when he saw Ma Yuan, and the two seemed to be very familiar.
"Brother Liu, let me introduce you to you, this is Mr. Zhou, that is, Mr. Zhou wants to find you to shoot a promotional video."
"Mr. Zhou, this is Liu Yang and Brother Liu, the director of Hangcheng TV, who used to play rock and roll and like music very much." Ma Yun introduced.
"Hello Brother Liu."
"Mr. Zhou is glad to meet."
Zhou Ze and Liu Yang stretched out their hands and shook it, Zhou Ze was not interested in Liu Yang, but Liu Yang was very interested in Zhou Ze.
The three of them walked into the tea room, Zhou Ze was let to the upper seat by the two, he politely took a few times, and saw that the two insisted on letting him sit on the seat, but he had to be disrespectful.
After everyone was seated, it was time for a small talk.
Liu Yang was very curious about Zhou Ze's identity, "What business does Zhou always do?" ”
"Those who sell sugar can't get on the table." Zhou Ze chuckled and shook his head.
Liu Yang looked at Zhou Ze with an expression of I believe you are a ghost.
A person who can't sell sugar on the table will have money to make a promotional video, what a joke.
However, Zhou Ze was reluctant to say, and he didn't ask uninteresting questions.
But one thing is certain, that is, Zhou Ze's sugar business is definitely not small.
This is the case these days, the small traders feel that they are not good at it, but the bosses who do big business are very low-key and kind.
The next step is to talk about the business and discuss the specific matters of the promotional video.
Liu Yang is very confident in his professional field, and when he talks about making promotional videos, the arrogance of literary and artistic people is about to overflow from his face.
He was ready to listen to Zhou Ze's request casually, and then gave Zhou Zexiu a hand and told Zhou Ze what professionalism was.
Let these capitalists know how powerful the artists are.
Zhou Ze said his requirements for the promotional video, as well as the desired appearance and the final effect.
Because this is related to the popularity of Wansheng New Year's candy, he said it in great detail.
Referring to many promotional videos that made Zhou Ze remember deeply in later generations, he said all the good ideas in one go.
And then...... Liu Yang was dumbfounded, he looked at Zhou Ze in a daze, and after a while, he said with a dry mouth: "Did Mr. Zhou also belong to our quyi circle before?" ”
"No, I used to be a candy factory worker." Zhou Ze said.
Liu Yang: ......
He felt that he had lived to a dog at a young age, and he was very embarrassed, and his face was a little hot.
Just now, I was thinking about teaching Zhou Ze a lesson, capitalists only know how to exploit the toiling masses and make money, where do they know the subtleties of art.
But now, Liu Yang feels that in front of Zhou Ze, he has become an outsider.
Although many of Zhou Ze's words did not match the preamble, or even did not reach the meaning, Liu Yang, as an insider, understood what Zhou Ze meant.
It was precisely because I understood it that I was shocked by Zhou Ze's whimsical ideas, as well as the other party's bold innovation in shooting and camera movements.
If it weren't for hearing Zhou Ze admit in person that he used to be a worker, Liu Yang really couldn't believe that the person who said so much professional content was a layman.
Zhou Ze really doesn't know how to make promotional videos, but he has seen a lot, and he still remembers many of the promotional films and MVs that were popular on the Internet in later generations.
Copy...... Wrong...... What is the difficulty of learning from 100 million points.
After talking about the content of the promotional video, the next thing is the theme song.
"The theme song of the promotional film is called "Wishing you prosperity", Zhou Ze said to Liu Yang: "The song is written by myself, but I can't compose the music, I will sing it again, please Brother Liu to help me write a song." ”
Liu Yang: ......
'Why do you know how to write songs?' ’
Liu Yang wanted to mock, but it hurt a little when he touched his face, so he held back.
"Mr. Zhou is really versatile."
Zhou Ze smiled, and when he saw Liu Yang take out a pen and paper, he began to hum the prelude.
After humming the prelude, Zhou Ze began to sing.
"I congratulate you on making a fortune, I congratulate you on your wonderful, please come over for the best, please go away for the bad, Oh~~~ Don't blame ......."
As the saying goes, the layman looks at the liveliness, and the insiders look at the doorway.
Although Ma Yuan was born in a family of quyi, he really doesn't know anything about music, and the most exaggerated thing is that he doesn't have all five notes when singing.
He thinks that the song sung by Zhou Ze is very good and festive, and it must be very appropriate to play it during the New Year.
