480. More exaggerated than legends! The show has officially begun!
The end of the year is approaching!
The Spring Festival Gala program group is definitely the busiest, and there is no one.
Whether it is the star artists who are going to perform or the staff of the program team, they rehearse over and over again every day, and the work of getting up early and working late is to strive to play perfectly on the stage!
The second is the crew that is about to release the movie during the Spring Festival, the results of a year's hard work are about to test the results, and everyone is working hard to promote it and want to get a higher box office!
And Li Youhua occupies both.
But......
Li Youhua is not busy at all.
Because.
He stuck at half past eight every day, and it used to be about eight fifty, and then he chatted with other people who came early, and he started work at nine o'clock.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, they still had time to rest, and at eight o'clock in the afternoon, they left work on time.
Such a leisurely and regular working time, Li Youhua has never experienced it since he entered the entertainment industry, which gives him the illusion of enjoying retirement life in advance.
However, he knew that these were all brought by Wang Cheng.
Even if it is a bull such as CCTV and the Spring Festival Gala program group, they are all obedient to Wang Cheng.
The rest of them naturally listened to Wang Cheng for everything.
After returning to his residence, Li Youhua also has to participate in the promotion of the movie, publish messages on his Weibo or short video platform to interact with fans, promote his movie, and occasionally interact with other people in the crew.
When he returned to his residence another day, Li Youhua had a guest, who was Jiang Bin, the director of the movie he participated in this year.
"Lao Li, I heard from your girl, you have been getting off work on time every day recently, going to work on time, and you are very leisurely?"
Jiang Bin sat down and poured himself a cup of tea as if he had returned to his home, and asked curiously, "I heard that you are cooperating with Wang Cheng this time?" ”
Li Youhua smiled: "Yes, cooperating with Wang Cheng is not leisurely, but it is indeed the easiest working time in my life!" ”
Jiang Bin: "Lao Li, you have something to say, do you blame me for squeezing you?" ”
Li Youhua: "Is there anything in the words?" Who hasn't been squeezed by you? ”
The two were friends before they entered the entertainment industry, and their decades of friendship were extremely casual.
Jiang Bin smiled, leaned closer and asked curiously, "So, Wang Cheng really commutes to and from work on time every day?" You've enjoyed this kind of treatment with you? CCTV is so used to him? ”
Li Youhua nodded: "That's not it, Qin Shangran and Xie Xingfeng often come and wait together, and Wang Cheng ignores them!" ”
Jiang Bin raised his eyebrows, he knew the news in the circle, knew that Xie Xingfeng had personally invited Wang Cheng several times, and he kept lobbying the people above, and he had to persuade Qin Shangran to revise the time for Wang Cheng, and then promoted this cooperation, and asked, "So, what's the situation?" How is Wang Cheng? Isn't it three heads and six arms? Did you inquire about the movie he starred in and directed this time? ”
Jiang Bin took a special trip back to the capital from the propaganda this time, just to have a good chat with Li Youhua and find out what Li Youhua had found out from Wang Cheng.
Li Youhua took a big sip of tea with a slightly complicated expression, looked at Jiang Bin and said seriously: "Old Jiang, you know who I have never served in my life!" ”
Jiang Bin: "That is, when we got into this circle together, no one was convinced!" Now we are too, and no one is convinced! What's the matter, Wang Cheng let you take it? ”
Li Youhua smiled bitterly: "You haven't seen him, and you haven't touched him." Otherwise, you have to obey! For music, I'm really convinced. He wrote five songs in one day, which perfectly fit the five themes of the Spring Festival Gala that Qin Shangran told him, friendship, love, family affection, blessing tomorrow, and praising lovely people! ”
Of course, Jiang Bin has long known the magical legend of Wang Cheng in pop music.
Legend has it that Wang Cheng's works are all temporary creations, made immediately, and then there are masterpieces that explode!
He had been skeptical of these legends before.
Hearing Li Youhua's words, Jiang Bin asked, "Have you listened to all five songs?" What do you think? Which one do you sing? ”
Li Youhua said solemnly: "Every song is bound to be a hit!" Ten of us sang one of them! There is a non-disclosure agreement, and I will certainly not tell you the details. I can only tell you that in music, his talent is still underestimated by the outside world! ”
Jiang Bin's eyes flashed with surprise: "More powerful than the legend?" ”
Li Youhua nodded: "It's so ...... amazing"
Jiang Bin stood up, obviously a little disbelieving.
Li Youhua: "It's going to be performed tomorrow, and when you watch it, you'll believe it." ”
Jiang Bin hummed and asked again, "Do you understand his movie?" I see that the publicity offensive of Rubik's Cube Entertainment has been reduced recently, maybe it is not optimistic? However, the theater chain has signed a screening contract, and the number of screens has not decreased! If the word-of-mouth collapses after the release, we can go and ask for more screens. ”
Li Youhua shook his head: "I asked two questions about the movie, but I didn't ask more." Wang Cheng is that person, it is difficult to communicate, I want to say a few words to him, but he ignores me, and it is even more difficult to get along with than the legend. An Keru said that the movie made by Wang Cheng is the best sci-fi film she has ever seen in her life! For her words, how much water you have, you weigh it yourself. ”
Jiang Bin nodded: "An Keru has chased Wang Cheng without a lower limit, and in order to make Wang Cheng's movie, she gave up Director Song's film contract and offended a large number of people!" Of course, she would say that Wang Cheng's movie is good. ”
Ay......
Sigh!
Jiang Bin was a little helpless: "Wang Cheng's popularity is too high, and the theater chain also looks at this, popularity represents traffic, customers, and box office." When it comes out tomorrow night, I'm going to see one and then I can make a promotional strategy! If it's a bad movie, then we have a chance to fight for more screens. ”
Jiang Bin is ambitious this year, and the first bullet he filmed this time was a script that he wrote after three years of polishing, and it took nearly two years from the preparation of filming to the completion of filming this year!
Originally, he will undoubtedly be the kindest star in the Spring Festival file this year, and he can win the most big screens, after all, his last movie also had a box office of more than 2 billion, and the starring role is also Ouyang Hai, a super first-line popular actor in Baodao, and the popularity of the recent major variety shows is second only to Wang Cheng's Matrix.
As long as the box office reputation of the Matrix collapses, they can steal the screen of the Matrix!
Li Youhua: "It's okay, when the time comes, when my performance is over, let's go and see it together!" I'm also curious about Wang Cheng's films, and I don't know if he can make movies. As for his acting skills, I admire them all......"
Jiang Bin: "Okay, let's go and have a look tomorrow night." ”
……
A certain quadrangle.
Shen Shenghui and Qin Mo knocked on the door, then walked in, and saw Xia Xi who was fiddling with flowers and plants in the courtyard, the two smiled and nodded, and then looked at Wang Cheng, who was sitting under the pavilion reading a book.
"Wang Cheng!"
Qin Mo said hello and walked over to sit opposite Wang Cheng: "It's going to be a performance tomorrow, how are you preparing?" ”
Wang Cheng nodded, didn't speak, and mumbled, indicating that he was ready.
Shen Shenghui sat next to Qin Mo and didn't speak, he was just a follower today.
Qin Mo didn't say much nonsense, and said to Wang Cheng: "Our movie will be released tomorrow night." ”
Wang Cheng still just hummed, as if the release of this movie had nothing to do with him, as if it was not a movie starring and directed by him.
Qin Mo and Shen Shenghui were both a little speechless!
But for Wang Cheng, there is no need to think about the work that has been completed.
Qin Mo: "Wang Cheng, I came to you because I wanted to discuss something with you. According to the contract you signed, the Matrix's earnings and copyrights are yours! On behalf of the company, I would like to ask you, whether you can sell the follow-up copyright of this movie or not, and the company can pay a high price! The box office hasn't come out yet, we can't bid well, and if it's low, you'll lose. ”
"However, I can promise you on behalf of the company that we will definitely offer the highest price in the industry, can we sign a pre-emptive agreement?" If you are willing to sign this pre-emptive agreement, we will compensate you for 10% of the purchase price. ”
"In other words, no matter how much others bid, we will give you ten percent more than the price!"
This is a plan negotiated by Qin Yuhai and Qin Mo, as well as Shen Shenghui and the two producers, it is definitely irrational to give the price now, the release is imminent, how much is appropriate?
If it is high, they will lose, and if it is low, Wang Cheng will not sell it 100%, and Wang Cheng is not short of money!
Therefore, I want to sign a pre-emptive purchase agreement with Wang Cheng......
But.
Wang Cheng glanced at Qin Mo, then put down the book, took a sip of the teacup, and said softly: "Don't sell it!" I used to say that I wouldn't sell any of my work, and it's the same with movies. So, that's the end of this matter, and I don't want you to bother me with this in the future. ”
Qin Mo and Shen Shenghui were both silent.
Such a result, they also expected in advance.
According to Wang Cheng's previous consistent performance, such a result is highly probable.
Sure enough, Wang Cheng simply and decisively refused.
Qin Mo continued: "Wang Cheng, I don't think you want to continue filming this movie. Such a good movie, you can't bear to watch it be buried in a warehouse later? I can assure you that I will always be the producer of this film, and I will be 100% committed to making a good sequel to the movie! ”
Wang Cheng picked up the book and continued to read, and said lightly: "What I said, I don't want to say it a second time!" If it's all right, you guys can go. ”
Qin Mo was silent and looked at Wang Cheng, she felt her uncle Qin Yuhai's mood at this time, and also understood why Qin Yuhai was angry every time.
In the face of such a Wang Cheng, she, a loyal fan of Wang Cheng, wanted to get angry at this time.
It's really not oil and salt.
Shen Shenghui even carefully controlled the sound of his breathing, did not speak, did not make a sound, and handed it over to Qin Mo to deal with, and he would not be responsible at that time.
At this time, Shen Shenghui had already begun to protect himself in Wang Cheng's affairs.
The water was too deep for him to grasp.
"Okay, then I won't talk about it!"
Qin Mo had no choice but to compromise: "That...... Do you have any plans to continue filming this film in the future? I think it's so good to shoot that I can already put forward the sequel plan in advance. ”
The so-called priority agreement was negotiated by Qin Mo for Qin Yuhai, and she didn't care too much if it couldn't be negotiated, but she herself really wanted to continue to be the producer of the sequel to this movie, she didn't know how successful this movie would be after it was released tomorrow night, but she knew that if she wanted to leave her name in the film industry, she might have to rely on this movie.
Wang Cheng shook his head: "I don't know!" ”
Qin Mo: "What do you mean?" Yes is yes, no is no, what does it mean not to know? ”
Wang Cheng glanced at Qin Mo: "Do you know what will happen tomorrow?" ”
Qin Mo paused for a moment: "I don't know!" ”
Wang Cheng: "So, I don't know!" ”
Qin Mo suddenly understood, and he couldn't speak for a while, knowing that Wang Cheng really didn't enter the oil and salt.
She rolled her eyes and thought that Wang Cheng would not refuse to work normally, just like this movie, as long as it was the normal work arranged by the company, he would do it.
Then, let the company sign another one?
However, she thought about it......
The sequel copyright is already in Wang Cheng's hands.
Without Wang Cheng's approval, he can't continue filming, how can he sign a film contract?
Now, it's a dead end.
Qin Mo sulked a little: "Okay, I'm leaving, goodbye!" ”
After speaking, Qin Mo got up and left.
Shen Shenghui also hurriedly smiled at Wang Cheng and said, "Wang Cheng, goodbye!" ”
After speaking, Shang followed Qin Mo and left.
Xia Xi glanced at the two of them, ignored them, and continued to prune the potted plant in his hand a few times, and then happily brought it to the table in front of Wang Cheng and put it down, expecting Wang Cheng to appreciate it after seeing it.
However, Wang Cheng didn't even look at it, and got up and walked directly to the study.
Xia Xi was a little disappointed, but then he let go of his disappointment, continued to prune the potted plants, and put them in Wang Cheng's study and bedroom, so that Wang Cheng could see it here and everywhere he went.
…………
The next day.
In the morning, Wang Cheng and the others rehearsed again and then broke up, only waiting for the performance at 7 o'clock in the afternoon.
CCTV has invested almost all its resources in promoting this performance, and the whole network is full of overwhelming news, which is the largest amount of resources that CCTV has ever invested in personally.
The Spring Festival Gala generally comes with its own super traffic, and every big coffee who joins the performance has its own heat, and a New Year's pass is naturally the biggest topic, and CCTV naturally does not need to invest more resources to publicize.
But......
This year, CCTV and the Spring Festival Gala program team both hope to make a breakthrough, so when Wang Cheng has occupied the largest traffic and popularity, he still invests the most resources in publicity.
The whole network is about the news of Wang Cheng's performance, followed by the news of Wang Cheng's movie The Matrix.
"Wang Cheng created several songs specifically for this performance, and each one is a surprise!"
"Wang Cheng is here with a new song, are you ready?"
"I'm ready, where can I download it?"
"I'm already sitting in front of the TV and waiting, so let's put on a show."
"Woo woo, I can finally see Wang Cheng's music performance, I can finally hear Wang Cheng's new song, Dad, you can go with peace of mind, I will burn the tape to your ......"
"It's on, it's on!"
"A one-hour special show in advance, awesome!"
……
In the afternoon, 6:50.
Wang Cheng, dressed in simple casual clothes and without makeup on his face, stood at the entrance of the backstage, ready to enter.
And the host standing on the stage at this time was Xia Xi, who was specially invited back by Qin Shangran.
Inviting Xia Xi to host Wang Cheng's special performance was also thoughtful!
Xia Xi was wearing a blue cheongsam and stood on the stage like a lotus flower: "Audience friends, hello everyone......"
Wen Yixiao, Han Xiao, Zhu Ziqi, Zhang Hanwen, Du Wei and other newcomers who appeared on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala for the first time were a little nervous.
The other three seniors seemed calm and expectant.
