Chapter Ninety-Six: A Secret Help
The finalized press conference ended quickly.
Originally, this was the beginning of the promotion of the movie, and it would not be a big deal.
It's just announced that our movie is about to be released.
Then from today, little by little, ramp up the publicity until the movie is actually released.
Gu Wei, who came out of Zhongying, did not return to the company, but went to the Shaocheng era of Zhang Liangying's company.
Shaocheng Times is a music production company jointly founded by Zhang Liangying and her agent Feng Ke.
Since Zhang Liangying became a super girl, she signed a contract with Tianyu Media, a subsidiary of Mango Channel.
Later, the agent Feng Ke thought that Huayi was more suitable for her development, so he negotiated with Tianyu to transfer the brokerage contract to Huayi.
After several years of development, Zhang Liangying's achievements in music are getting higher and higher, and his popularity is becoming more and more popular.
In 09, her contract with Huayi expired, so she founded Shaocheng Times Company with her agent Feng Ke.
Mainly responsible for Zhang Liangying's brokerage affairs, music production and so on.
Gu Wei came to find her, also because the two met when they recorded the ending song of [Tang Detective], and now that Gu Wei wants to record a few songs by himself, he naturally thinks of her first.
When Gu Wei arrived in Shaocheng, Zhang Liangying and Feng Ke came out to greet them.
The two are a couple, although they are not married, but Shaocheng is equivalent to a husband-and-wife shop that opened together.
Feng Ke is responsible for management, and Zhang Liangying is the faΓ§ade, responsible for making money.
"Mr. Gu, welcome, welcome.
I wanted to get to know Mr. Gu very early, and I have always heard about it from Liangying, but I have not had the opportunity to meet it.
Today I finally got what I wanted. β
Falco was welcoming.
He looks to be in his 40s, much older than Zhang Liangying. He looks like a gentleman, wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and doesn't look like a businessman in the traditional sense.
"Mr. Feng is too polite, I just borrowed Guibao to record a few songs, and I bothered Mr. Feng that you came out to pick me up."
Gu Wei knew that Feng Ke was interested in the film and television resources in his hands, and there would be opportunities to cooperate in the soundtrack interludes of movies and TV series in the future.
After a few polite words to Feng Ke, Gu Wei went to the recording studio in Shaocheng under the leadership of Zhang Liangying.
Compared with Zhang Liangying, Gu Wei's impression of Feng Ke is not good.
Feng Ke met Zhang Liangying in 03, and the two were together soon, but he had his own family and children at that time, and Feng Ke did not divorce until 05.
Later, he has been serving as Zhang Liangying's agent.
Basically, they used her as a tool to make money.
never acknowledges the relationship between the two to the outside world, PUA Zhang Liangying said that it is for the sake of her fame.
It wasn't until 15 years, when the two had been together for more than ten years, that Zhang finally couldn't help but take the initiative to confess at the concert, and Feng Ke was forced to make it public.
got married in 2016, and in less than 2 years, she divorced and broke up in 2018, and kicked Zhang Liangying out of the company, taking away the 600 million assets she earned over the years.
It can be said that this is the real scumbag, cheating sex and money.
But these are all Zhang Liangying's own willingness, and even her mother can't persuade her, let alone an outsider.
The music producer arranged for Gu Wei is Wang Zhengliang.
He is a relatively well-known singer and music producer in the domestic music industry.
Graduated from Sichuan Shu Conservatory of Music, participated in Happy Boys, and later became a teacher at the Conservatory of Music, and sang a song "Where Has Time Go" at the Spring Festival Gala in 2014 to move countless Chinese people.
It's a coincidence to say that Gu Wei's movie [Tang Detective] found Zhang Liangying to sing the theme song, which was also released in the Chinese New Year, and Feng Xiaogang's movie [Private Custom] was found to be an episode in Wang Zhengliang's record.
With the help of producer Wang Zhengliang, Gu Wei recorded the song in an orderly manner.
With Gu Wei's current voice and singing skills, recording songs is like a crane for him to lose chicken feathers - effortlessly.
Wang Zhengliang was helping outside, and he called him Mr. Gu at the beginning.
When a few songs are recorded, he will call him Mr. Gu.
For talented people, the best way to earn their respect is to be better than them.
Watching Gu Wei record songs like a cloud, when singing, whether it is the layering of high and low tones, or the conversion of true and false sounds, he is holding the handle and doing it flawlessly.
And every recorded song has the potential to be a fire to him.
It is said that these songs were all written by Gu Wei himself.
All these make Wang Zhengliang, a person who has certain attainments in music, admire.
After two days in the recording studio, Gu Wei finished recording all the songs.
During this period, Zhang Liangying came to see him, heard the song sung by Gu Wei, and excitedly wanted to recommend him to Universal Music.
Although she has her own company, Zhang Liangying's record contract is signed at Universal, after all, her company's ability is limited.
She needs a big company like Universal Music to promote her music on a global scale.
"Thank you, Sister Liangying, I'm an actor, and I may try to be a singer in the future, but now is not the time."
"It's a shame, you're so talented in music, I'll go back and recommend it to my producer."
Zhang Liangying feels very regretful, she has studied music since she was a child, she was born with a good voice, and she is a singer who really loves music.
She understood how rare Gu Wei's talent was.
Walking out of the Shaocheng era, Gu Wei was ready to go home to rest.
The recording of songs for two consecutive days made him feel tired from the inside out.
"Hey, Sister Yang, how is the public opinion on the Internet now?"
Gu Wei took out the phone and called the agent, because he wanted to concentrate on recording songs, he specially explained that he should not look for him if there was no major matter.
"Mr. Gu, in general, it's not good, it's the same as you expected before.
After the finalized press conference of [Tang Detective] a few days ago, the online media was one-sided ridicule.
The netizens below also followed suit, basically mocking and scolding. β
Gu Wei didn't feel anything wrong when he heard it.
"Zhang Han, did he post on Weibo again?"
Zhang Han didn't make any moves, and it is estimated that his company didn't want to make a big deal about it.
However, some netizens broke the news that it was suspected that Zhang Han's account was attacking our movies and liking those abusive posts. β
Gu Wei couldn't help but laugh when he heard this
"It's really his style, and it's unlucky enough to be his agent, and he can't just wipe his ass.
Okay, you don't have to worry about it for now.
Wait for the situation to unfold, and I'll take care of the rest. β
I hung up the phone and opened Weibo.
Ho~ There are more than 6 million fans, so you can imagine how much this matter has been hyped on the Internet these days.
The comments below Weibo are basically unreadable.
Including the uploaded [Tang Detective] promotional video, there are few good words in the message below.
"I don't understand, a student who hasn't graduated from the acting major has become a director and made a movie, where is this movie not rotten?"
"Being rich is capricious, as long as you have money, you can act in movies and be a star, or you can be a director and make movies!"
"Don't today's actors think about their own abilities, they want to play one by one, and they think that they can film if they can act, right, how many years has Xu Zheng been filming, and he wants to fly before he stands firm?"
"Investing so much money to make a bad movie, it is estimated that it is money laundering, and it is recommended to strictly investigate~"
"I feel sorry for Baoqiang for a second, how can I cooperate with such a young director, it's too unreliable."
β.β
Netizens' attention shifted quickly, and now the topic is basically talking about the new movie that Gu Wei is going to release.
The basic attitude is ridicule and disfavorable, and occasionally there are two comments, saying that this trailer looks good, and it quickly drowns in a sea of bad reviews.
It's no wonder that netizens are not optimistic, after all, Gu Wei's age and experience are too confusing.
turned out to be known as the representative of the younger generation of directors, Lu Chuan, who only started filming his directorial debut [Looking for a Gun] when he was 31 years old.
Director Lu Yang, Gu Wei's good friend, also made his first movie [Blind Cinema] at the age of 31.
They are basically the youngest of the new directors in China.
The profession of director is too senior, and many people have the opportunity to direct their first work until they are middle-aged and in their 40s.
Gu Wei is a 21-year-old young man, and it is difficult for people to believe that he has this ability.
Gu Wei flipped through the comments of netizens, thought about it, and sent a text.
"The world is so big, I always want to fly.
The rainbow after the rain is so wonderful!
Crazy for dreams, so what about this time?
Run! Proud teenager! β
Then attach a photo taken while recording a song in the studio, wearing a headset, holding a microphone in his hand, and a pair of bright eyes looking ahead.
"Wow, little brother is so handsome~ Come on, little brother~"
"Cut! It's better to say than to sing, sit back and wait for your bad movie to be released! β
β.β
Gu Wei still has some fans, but he doesn't have any works now, his fans are not fixed, there are many people who hack him, and these fans don't squeak.
Turn off the phone and stop paying attention, now he needs to rest.
Early the next morning, Gu Wei received a call from Yang Mi.
"Gu Wei, are you okay?
I've been busy filming for the past two days, and I just saw your news on Weibo today. β
Yang Mi said in a tone that I was worried about you.
'Okay, Sister Mi, just rush at you with this attitude, the physical strength I consumed for you is not in vain. Gu Wei thought about it and said indifferently
"It's nothing, Sister Mi, thank you for your concern."
"You're about to be hacked by the whole network, it's okay, do you need me to help you say a word on Weibo to support your new movie?"
In fact, Yang Mi didn't care much about Gu Wei being hacked, she herself was often hacked, which was much worse than Gu Wei.
"So, Sister Mi, you do me a favor. I'll upload a song I wrote, and you can forward it for me. Yang Mi's Weibo fans are close to 20 million, no need for nothing, it's just a gesture for her.
"Okay, no problem."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Wei thought about it and dialed Liu Yifei's number again.
After [Embroidered Spring Knife], the two people have never met because of their work with each other.
It's normal for actors to be busy and not see each other for a year and a half.
However, the two occasionally chat on WeChat, Liu Yifei is a literary young woman, often reads some books, sends some thoughts to Gu Wei, and recommends him to read it too.
Gu Wei also chatted with her, and the relationship between the two has always been good.
Two days ago, she asked Gu Wei on WeChat about being hacked on the Internet.
It's just that Gu Wei said that it was okay, so she didn't pay attention anymore.
"Sister Yifei, are you busy?"
"Gu Wei, I feed the cats at home, why did you remember to call me, strange?"
Liu Yifei is not a workaholic, and every time he finishes filming, he will let himself rest for a while.
He could still hear the 'meow~meow~' from the other side of the phone.
"Find Sister Yifei to do me a favor, I wrote a song myself, and when I upload it to the Internet, Sister Yifei will help me forward and recommend it!"
"Master Gu can also write songs? How's that, does it sound good? I want to listen to it first, and I won't say hello if it's not good. β
She wasn't surprised that Gu Wei was singing, but she was even more surprised when she wrote her own songs.
In her impression, Gu Wei is handsome and rich.
Some time ago, I heard that he was a director himself, and the movie had not yet been released, so I didn't know how it was filmed, and Liu Yifei didn't dare to make a conclusion.
Now he can write his own songs, is he really a talent?
Gu Wei listened to it and was happy
"Then I'll thank Sister Yifei first.
You'll be satisfied. β
Come on, another Weibo big V gave him free publicity.
