Polygram has indeed been in a mess recently because of Zhou Xiaojie's affairs.

In order to save Zhou Xiaojie's reputation, Polygram frequently contacted the media and celebrity public relations.

It's just that under the audience's preconceived ideas, Zhou Xiaojie's reputation has not only not been recovered, but also continues to decline.

At the beginning of June, Oriental Daily even broke out that Zhou Xiaojie's two endorsements that had already signed were actually terminated with him because of Zhou Xiaojie's word-of-mouth problems.

However, Chen Qiming didn't pay too much attention to Zhou Xiaojie's affairs.

After entering June, he focused on the upcoming 97 return show.

A large-scale performance like the return of 97 has a wide range of attention and is so large that it cannot be compared with the general stage.

Even, it is no exaggeration to say that this stage is not something that ordinary people can go on.

This can be seen from the list that has been published so far.

Those who can appear on the stage are all the top and most popular singers in the mainland and Hong Kong.

There is no one on the treasure island except for Chen Qiming.

In short, even if Chen Qiming has become a world-class superstar, he attaches great importance to this show.

It's only in June, and he's been preparing for the show.

In addition to him, Lin Zixiang, Ye Qianwen and Faye Wong, who had just returned from giving birth, also frequently appeared in the rehearsal room arranged above.

Jacky Cheung and other four heavenly kings will also take the time to come over for rehearsals.

Among them, Andy Lau rehearsed and asked the crew of "Black Gold" for a week's leave.

"I've seen you come to rehearsal for the past few days, do you plan to wait until the show is over before starting your new job?"

In the spacious rehearsal room, after Chen Qiming was tired from rehearsal, he found a chair in the rest area and sat down.

He had just sat down, and Lin Zixiang, who was also rehearsing here today, also walked in.

It can be seen that Lin Zixiang has also rehearsed for a while, and his face is full of sweat.

He sat directly next to Chen Qiming.

"It's better to finish rehearsals early, and I'm going to visit the concert venue next week."

Chen Qiming handed him a bottle of water and explained.

It is obviously impossible to let Chen Qiming rehearse here for a month in a row.

He also appeared and sang a total of three songs.

Although each one needs to have a tacit cooperation with the backup dancer, it doesn't take more than a month at all.

The reason why Chen Qiming came to the rehearsal a month in advance was mainly because he hoped that after the rehearsal was completed, he could be busy with other things.

In mid-August, his concert tour will begin.

This "97 World Tour" is his second world tour since 1995.

In order to give his fans a memorable concert, he needed to start preparing two months in advance.

There's a lot of preparation for a concert.

Whether it's the choice of venue, the rehearsal of the song, or the sale of tickets in advance.

It's a lot of work mixed up.

Before, Chen Qiming's concert was handled by Fulong and Warner Records, and Chen Qiming didn't need to care about too many things, so it seemed more relaxed.

But this time, the concert was completely in charge of Starting Point Records.

In the end, Starting Point Records is a company that has only been established for less than two years, although it has achieved remarkable results, and is currently known as a giant company in the Chinese music scene.

But he is a novice when it comes to holding concerts.

Moreover, Chen Qiming's concert is not ordinary, this is a world-class tour, not one or two small fights.

In order to make the concert go smoothly, Chen Qiming himself has a lot of things to do.

For example, negotiating with concert organizers around the world, such as venues, ticket sales, etc., Chen Qiming plans to do it himself.

In fact, it's not that he doesn't want to let others in the company do it.

There are too few people available to the company.

In the end, it is a new company, and its size and talent pool are completely inferior to those large companies.

In order to hold the concert smoothly, Chen Qiming had to do it himself.

"How many are you going to do this time?"

Hearing Chen Qiming say that he was going to hold a concert, Lin Zixiang was not surprised at all.

For a big-name figure like Chen Qiming, the concert will generally start preparing half a year or a year in advance.

Now it is only two months before the concert starts, and the promotion of various regions has begun to be launched one after another.

Recently, the streets of Hong Kong have been filled with advertisements for Chan's world tour this year.

"There may be more this time, about a hundred in total, and the time may last until the end of the year!"

Chen Qiming rubbed his neck, which was a little sore after falling into the stiff neck at the latest, and replied.

"At the end of the year? Wouldn't you have time to release a record this year? ”

Lin Zixiang looked surprised.

"No, there will be an English record in October!" Chen Qiming shook his head, "Although the time will be very rushed, it should be busy." ”

"It's not easy!" Lin Zixiang couldn't help but sigh that he was one of the most popular singers in Hong Kong in the late 80s, and there were not many concerts.

He knows exactly what a hundred concerts mean.

Moreover, Chen Qiming's 100 concerts are not only in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but on a global scale.

A concert like Chen Qiming's running all over the world is definitely the most tiring, and every day is either on the plane or on the way to the plane.

Thinking of taking the plane, Lin Zixiang couldn't help but say:

"You fly all over the world, you still have to pay attention to safety!"

"Thank you! I'll pay attention! ”

Chen Qiming nodded.

In May this year, China Southern Airlines flight CZ3456 came from Chongqing to Shenzhen, and a fire accident occurred on the way down, which eventually killed a total of 35 of the 74 people on board.

This incident caused a great sensation, and at one point reduced the number of people who were on the plane during this time.

"Have you invited all the guests? Would you like me to come and help? ”

"Yes! I think Hong Kong fans will be very happy! Chen Qiming said with a smile.

In fact, he has no shortage of assistant singers.

In particular, Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Mainland.

These places are his home turf, and some of the biggest names are coming to help.

Even if he doesn't, just find a few newcomers, and he can guarantee the successful completion of the concert.

But since Lin Zixiang spoke, Chen Qiming naturally wanted to give him face and leave a place for him.

As the big devil of Hong Kong in the 80s, although Lin Zixiang has retired in recent years, his popularity in the music world has declined.

But in the group of middle-aged people, he is still very appealing.

He joined in, no less than Chen Qiming invited a Four Heavenly Kings to help.

"Then it's decided, remember to call me when the time comes!"

Lin Zixiang was obviously very interested in Chen Qiming's concert, not only was he subtle, but also emphasized again that Chen Qiming should call him.

"Yes!"

……

After another afternoon of rehearsals in the rehearsal room, Chen Qiming left with a few bodyguards.

Out of the rehearsal room, he called Li Ruotong.

"Are you home?"

"Well, here it is!" Li Ruotong on the phone had a very nasal voice, as if he hadn't woken up yet.

"My door is full of reporters, I'll come to you later!"

Chen Qiming said as he got into the car.

"Ahh You're going to come here......"

Li Ruotong on the phone screamed, and then Chen Qiming heard the sound of stepping on the floor with bare feet.

"When are you there?"

"About half an hour." Chen Qiming glanced at his watch, "Don't say anything, I'll drive first!" ”

Hanging up the phone, Chen Qiming arranged for the bodyguards to go back to their residences, then put on a hat and mask and drove straight to Li Ruotong's house.

"Ah......hh It's over, it's a mess! In a three-bedroom suite in Yau Ma Tei, Li Ruotong looked at the messy living room, and the whole person was not good.

Recently, she was not at home for three days because of filming night scenes, and she fell asleep when she came back.

This led to a mess in her house.

All kinds of take-out lunch boxes piled up, and the underwear hood was thrown to the ground.

A kennel is the only way to describe her house.

"It's over, my innocent image......"

screamed again, she didn't care about why Chen Qiming suddenly came to her, and quickly began to clean the house.

In the afternoon, the traffic in Hong Kong was very congested, and Chen Qiming wandered for more than 40 minutes before coming to the downstairs of Li Ruotong's house.

Just as he was about to go upstairs, the phone rang again.

It's not Li Ruotong.

It is Han Cheng, the head of Qiming Film and Television in Hong Kong.

"Have you negotiated?" Without waiting for him to speak, Chen Qiming asked.

"The general direction is about the same, but Du Qifeng wants to meet with you.

He doesn't seem to believe in me, and wants your personal promise. ”

Han Cheng's voice on the phone was a little low, as if he was deliberately suppressed.

"Where are you now?" Chen Qiming asked.

"We are at FLM!" Han Cheng replied.

"Wait a few minutes, I'll come over myself!" Chen Qiming pondered for a few seconds and said.

A big event happened in the film industry last year.

The discontinued Shaw Brothers Film Company was re-established under the impetus of Run Run Shaw.

After the establishment of Shaw Brothers Films, the first thing they did was to transfer all the staff of the former Metropolis Film Company under Wireless to Shaw Brothers.

However, there are also those who are reluctant to join Shaw Brothers.

Johnny To, Wei Jiahui and others are.

The two of them gathered some personnel in the Metropolis who were unwilling to join the Shaw Brothers and continued to hold on to the Metropolis.

Last year, it also produced the classic firefighting movie "100,000 Emergencies".

But Metropolis is, after all, a wireless company.

Du Qifeng and the others didn't want to make wedding dresses for wireless in vain.

So, under the leadership of Johnny To, several people established a film production company called Galaxy Imaging.

Recently, the Galaxy Imaging debut film "The Birth of a Word" directed by Wei Jiahui has been produced and is being released in theaters.

Pacific Cinemas is one of the people they contacted.

Overall, "The Birth of a Word" is a good movie.

But for Pacific Cinemas, it's not too unusual.

Even if it doesn't win this movie, Pacific Cinemas won't have much to lose.

However, although he is not interested in movies, Chen Qiming is very interested in Galaxy Images.

He remembered that the film company established by Johnny To will be both productive and well-known in the next few years.

In just a few years, Galaxy Imaging has produced more than 20 films, directly supporting half of Hong Kong films.

If we talk about Hong Kong's film industry, in the early 80s, it was Shaw Brothers, New Arts City, and Golden Harvest competed for hegemony, and in the late 80s, Debao replaced Shaw Brothers and continued to stand in the top three. In the early to mid-nineties, it was a showdown between Jiahe and Yongsheng, and a bunch of companies were dancing around.

In the late 90s, after Hong Kong films entered the depression, the entire Hong Kong film completely relied on the best partners and Galaxy Images.

Both companies were formed by several directors.

The best partners are Wang Jing and Liu Weiqiang and others.

The galaxy image is Johnny To and Wei Jiahui.

At present, the best partner has reached a comprehensive partnership with Pacific Cinema Line.

Pacific Cinemas participated in the investment, and the best partner was responsible for the production, so as to provide film sources for Pacific Cinemas.

In addition to the best partner, Pacific Cinemas has also reached a strategic partnership with Tsui Hark's studio and Stephen Chow's Xinghui.

It can be said that as far as Hong Kong is concerned, the Pacific Cinema Line has basically attracted several of the most powerful companies.

However, for Chen Qiming, this is not enough.

Galactic Imaging was his next target.

He plans to bring Galactic Images under his command.

As long as Galaxy Imaging is won, Pacific Cinema will almost win most of the capable and talented directors in Hong Kong.

With them, other film companies such as Golden Harvest will not be worth mentioning.

The entire Hong Kong film industry will enter a state of dominance by Pacific cinemas.

Of course, it's not good to dominate the world.

Just look at the Shaw Brothers back then.

Shaw Brothers is used to being invincible, which leads to the old company model, and the movies produced are not accepted by the audience.

If Pacific Cinemas eventually becomes the hegemon, it will inevitably follow the old path of Shaw Brothers in the end.

But Chen Qiming couldn't help it.

The economic crisis is sweeping across Southeast Asia, and all industries are being affected.

The same is true for the film industry.

Golden Harvest has reduced production to make movies a lot in the next few years, and there are no reasons for this.

In the economic depression and everyone has little money in their hands, there may not be many people who can go to the cinema to watch movies.

In order to avoid involution, and also to keep their own company's films from losing money.

Chen Qiming can only choose to crush all the other film companies in the industry and then integrate them into his own company.

The Galaxy Image is Chen Qiming's first step.

He plans to take advantage of the fact that Galaxy Imaging has not yet gained momentum, and directly acquire and merge this company into Qiming Film and Television.

Han Chengcheng went to talk to Du Qifeng because of this matter.

After explaining that Han Cheng dragged Du Qifeng and waited for him, Chen Qiming hung up the phone and called Li Ruotong upstairs and asked her to go downstairs to accompany him to Fulin Building.

Originally, he planned to come over tonight to explore the cave with Li Ruotong.

Plans are not keeping up with the changes right now.

But he had already notified Li Ruotong that he was coming, and if he suddenly didn't come, it would be 100% to make Li Ruotong angry.

Recently, several of his warm quilts are not in Hong Kong, only Li Ruotong is there.

In order to avoid no one to warm the quilt at night, he could only choose to bring Li Ruotong over.

As for whether to go back to Li Ruotong here or his villa at night, it depends on the situation.

Less than three minutes after Chen Qiming's phone call, Li Ruotong rushed down with a small leather bag with a happy face.

"Why are you sweating profusely? I'm not in a hurry for a few minutes! ”

Seeing that she was sweating profusely, Chen Qiming handed over a tissue.

"I was just cleaning, it's good that you don't go up, or you'll ......"

Halfway through the talk, Li Ruotong stopped talking.

"Is it that dirty?" Chen Qiming started the car.

"It's not very dirty, it's just a little dirty!"

"Forehead ......"
