The time entered November, and Chen Qiming entered the busiest period since his debut.

While going on a concert tour, I also have to go into the studio to record a new record.

Even, because there was no time to go back to Hong Kong to record, Chen Qiming had to find a recording studio in the local area where the concert was held to record.

This kind of days of rehearsals, concerts, and recordings made Chen Qiming miserable.

After a month or two, he even lost a lot of weight because of it.

Sometimes, Chen Qiming even thought about simply not recording records.

Push back the record recording plan.

But this approach simply does not work.

Because, his album plan is completely planned in advance.

If you don't record this year, you have to postpone it to next year.

But next year, he will already have a full schedule of work, and he can't squeeze out any spare space.

Therefore, even if he was too busy to eat sometimes, he still chose to persevere.

This time he recorded the record, and Chen Qiming still recorded the same two albums.

One in Chinese and one in English.

Unlike before, all the ten songs on this album are from Chen Qiming himself.

Chinoiserie.

Chinese-style songs can already be seen in Chen Qiming's records in the first two years.

In each of his albums, there will be one or two songs that are biased towards Chinese style to test the market.

And these songs have basically been recognized by the market.

Therefore, this time, after Chen Qiming began to prepare the album, he set the album style to be Chinese.

When it comes to Chinese style in the future of dreams, Jay Chou is naturally a person who can't be avoided.

Therefore, among several Chinese-style songs, Chen Qiming chose three Chinese-style songs of Jay Chou.

The first song is "Orchid Pavilion Preface".

Chen Qiming likes this song very much, and he thinks that the lyrics of this song are really beautiful and meaningful.

"Lanting Linti, the book is like flowing clouds and flowing water......" is like a poem with far-reaching artistic conception, which makes people feel as if they can travel through time and space in ancient times when they hear this word.

The second song is "Blue and White Porcelain".

Like the Orchid Pavilion Preface, what stands out for this song is the beauty of the artistic conception.

The lyrics and music are perfectly matched, and it is the pinnacle of ancient songs.

The third song "Fireworks Are Easy to Cold".

The combination of the bleak and sad style of the song and the lyrics seems to see a woman in green clothes standing at the gate of the ancient city of Ban Ti looking into the distance, quietly waiting for her sweetheart to return.

In addition to Jay Chou's songs, Chen Qiming also picked two other singers who are good at ancient songs in his dreams and future dreams.

Xu Song.

A singer who was defined as an Internet singer in the early stage of his dream, Jay Chou's imitator.

Imitation or not, Chen Qiming is not clear.

But it is undeniable that this singer's songs are actually very good, and many of his songs Chen Qiming likes very much.

From Chen Qiming's personal point of view, among the singers in the future.

When it comes to ancient songs, except for Jay Chou, Xu Song is definitely No1.

His old-fashioned lyrics are truly amazing.

was so amazing that Chen Qiming almost thought he was a poet.

Among his songs, Chen Qiming selected "Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow" and "Luzhou Moon" to add to his album of national style.

In addition to the above five main songs, Chen Qiming chose the remaining five songs, "Not a Hero", "Know or Not", "Nine Zhang Ji", "Drunk Red Cliff", and "Red Ling".

There is no doubt that this will be another album that is ahead of its time.

Chen Qiming can already imagine that when his album was released, the ancient style craze on the market was set off.

However, staying ahead of the curve also comes at a cost.

Obviously, Chen Qiming, as the first singer to put forward the concept of ancient style, will be scolded by many people.

It's like Jay Chou in a dream.

It's not impossible.

Because when Chen Qiming was recording this album, Chen Xiunan, as the company's gold medal producer, protested and did not recommend Chen Qiming to release this record.

In his opinion, this record type is too advanced, and if you are not careful, it will ruin Chen Qiming's album.

And whose is this album for?

It's Chen Qiming's.

As the first person in the current Chinese music scene, if Chen Qiming's record fails, what will be the impact?

It is certain that if Chen Qiming's record fails, countless people will see hope, will fall into the ground, and will attack him as the first person in the Chinese music scene.

Therefore, Chen Xiunan did not agree with Chen Qiming's release of this record.

But he couldn't help it if he didn't agree.

Chen Qiming is a stubborn and sometimes authoritarian man.

Even though he knew that Chen Xiunan disagreed, Chen Qiming still promoted the recording of this record.

In mid-December, with the official end of the concert in Africa, Chen Qiming's album recording was also announced to be completed.

Back on Treasure Island, Chen Qiming immediately began to prepare for the shooting of the MV for the Chinese album.

This Chinese album, Chen Qiming plans to vigorously promote it in other countries such as Europe and the United States.

Therefore, the MV of the album is also very important.

Unlike the previous MV of a Chinese album, this album, Chen Qiming directly spent 100 million Hong Kong dollars on shooting the MV.

In this era, 100 million yuan was invested to shoot MVs, which I am afraid only Chen Qiming can do.

His move directly caused an uproar in the entertainment industry.

Chen Qiming is walking on the road of Michael Jackson, Michael has spent tens of millions of dollars to shoot the MV, raising the level of the MV to the level of the movie.

Now, Chen Qiming has started to do the same, and I am mourning for other singers in the industry.

They belong to the same era as Chen Qiming, which is something to be proud of, because when they can chat with their sons and grandchildren in the future, they can proudly say: "I once attended an event with Chen Qiming. Or they can tell them that they once competed with Chen Qiming for an award.

However, they are also sad, because Chen Qiming has suppressed an era, not only that, but he is constantly raising the fans' aesthetics of songs, so that a large number of singers who are not up to the mark will be eliminated directly.

Now, Chen Qiming has obviously started his operation to raise the level of fans again.

100 million Hong Kong dollars, which is already enough to invest in an ultra-luxury movie, and at present, Hong Kong has an average annual investment of more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars in less than five films.

Now he actually invested 100 million to shoot the MV.

It's hard to imagine the quality of Chen Qiming's album, and I can't wait to see February soon, and I want to listen to this album......"

When Chen Qiming's album release date was announced, and at the same time announced the investment of 100 million Hong Kong dollars to shoot the MV, the famous Hong Kong composer and Golden Needle Award winner Gu Jiahui directly made this remark in the contemporary music scene.

Indeed, Gu Jiahui's words are simply too reasonable.

When he heard that Chen Qiming was going to invest 100 million Hong Kong dollars to shoot the MV, the whole circle was in mourning.

Countless big-name singers, second-tier singers, and even singers who are not in the stream are scolding their mothers in low voices.

Andy Lau, Li Ming, Zhang Yusheng...... and others called Chen Qiming.

Andy Lau: "You are awesome, you are rich, you are rich, you don't give us a way to live." ”

Liming: "I just want to ask, do you need a cameo in the MV?" In the historical MV of the Chinese music scene, I want to play a cameo role. ”

Zhang Yusheng: "Are you fucking sick, are you doing this, how will we shoot MVs in the future?" ”

……

Chen Qiming's MV investment caused a stir in the circle.

In the newspaper, music critics praised it, thinking that Chen Qiming is simply a conscientious figure among singers and never perfunctory fans.

On TV, some singers who were asked this question laughed and said that they were looking forward to Chen Qiming's album, while secretly scolding Chen Qiming in their hearts for being unkind.

When this incident was in an uproar in the circle, Chen Qiming didn't pay much attention to these public opinions.

After he returned to Treasure Island, he immediately began to choose the heroine for the MV of the record.

Ten songs, each with a heroine, adds up to ten.

This time, Chen Qiming does not plan to invite famous actresses to participate in the filming of the MV.

He intends to discover new talents.

In the future, Zhang Yimou will have a Mou girl, and Stephen Chow will have a star girl, so he Chen Qiming should also have a Ming girl.

Therefore, using newcomers to discover a wave of girls who are both beautiful and can dominate the entertainment industry in the future has become one of his pleasures.

On December 12th, Chen Qiming announced a news in a large number of newspapers on Baodao that on the 15th, Chen Qiming will hold a selection competition called Ming Girl in Taipei.

Well, it's just so just, Chen Qiming directly named this selection as the Ming Girl Selection.

This selection competition, which is limited to women between the ages of 16 and 25, requires a skill, outstanding appearance, and elegant speech.

The rankings will be listed in the tryouts.

Among them, the champion, runner-up and third runner-up will have the opportunity to serve as the MV heroine of Chen Qiming's new album.

The news was published in major newspapers.

As soon as it was published, it directly caused an uproar on Treasure Island.

A large number of women who were confident in their appearance called to sign up and rushed to Taipei at the same time.

"Mr. Chen, we have to interrupt the registration channel. There were too many, too many people attending.

Since yesterday, as of this afternoon, thousands of people have signed up.

If it doesn't stop, the total number of people may be even higher.

With so many people, it may take us days just to select.

In this way, it will affect the subsequent MV shooting. ”

In the office of the president of Taipei City Starting Point Records, Li Xiaowen is reporting the situation of this selection competition to Chen Qiming.

After listening to his words, Chen Qiming couldn't help but touch his chin and figure it out.

He didn't expect that his appeal would be so terrifying.

In two days, thousands of people signed up, which is almost comparable to Miss Hong Kong in Hong Kong.

However, Chen Qiming was not panicked at all about having so many people sign up.

Instead, he began to wonder if he could take advantage of this opportunity to gain other benefits.

Suddenly, Chen Qiming's eyes lit up.

It suddenly occurred to him that since there were so many people participating in the treasure island.

What about Hong Kong? What about Singapore? What about the mainland?

Can I take this opportunity to make this selection competition that was originally just a selection of MV heroines bigger?

"Don't stop." Chen Qiming's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he stood up directly, "You inform the newspaper to add an article to the content of the publication, and whoever wins the ranking, tenth to sixth, will each receive a bonus of 100,000 Taiwan dollars."

The fifth to the first, in addition to the bonus, also have the opportunity to get a guaranteed contract from Pacific Entertainment. ”

"This is ......," Li Xiaowen looked confused.

"You just do it." Chen Qiming did not explain, and ordered directly.

"Okay!" Li Xiaowen really didn't understand what Chen Qiming meant.

Didn't you say that you chose the MV heroine! Why did you suddenly increase the bonus again, and give a guaranteed signing contract again.

Is this a welfare?

Waiting for Li Xiaowen to leave, Chen Qiming thought about it for two minutes, immediately picked up the phone, and began to call.

In the thinking just now, his thinking became more and more divergent.

In the end, he thought of a solution that would do him a great benefit.

He wants to expand the selection of Ming girls this time.

He will not only hold tryouts on Treasure Island, but also in Singapore, Hong Kong, the mainland and other places.

As for the purpose, in addition to adding an excellent heroine to his MV, he can also make money with the help of this selection, and he can also add a large number of outstanding female artists to his Pacific Entertainment Company.

Among them, making money is a key point.

How to make money?

Of course, it's like Miss Hong Kong and the future idol audition.

How much profit can Miss Hong Kong bring to the organizer in a year?

No one thinks that Miss Hong Kong is just choosing actresses for TVB, right?

TVB doesn't need actresses.

The reason why Miss Hong Kong is held every year is because of this talent show to make money.

Needless to say, sponsorship fees from major jewelers and clothing companies, just when this talent show was broadcast on TVB, the advertising fee was a large amount.

And Chen Qiming's idea is to hold the Ming girl into a large-scale talent show, and at the same time solicit sponsorship, sell the live broadcast rights of the draft to the TV station.

Now, Chen Qiming is calling sponsors.

"Max, you've probably heard I'm running a Ming Girl tryout, right? Is your company interested in being a costume sponsor for this audition? ”

"Mr. Zhou, have you heard about the Ming Girl Tryout? That's what I did, and I plan to do it in many parts of Asia.

At present, the number of applicants is very large, so many that it is comparable to Miss Hong Kong.

I'm going to contact the TV station to have the tryouts broadcast on TV and the jewelry sponsorship to you, will you do it? ”

……

Chen Qiming dialed out one after another.

The people he calls are businessmen he knows and works with, and even some of them, he also acts as their spokesperson.

For example, Hong Kong Saturday Fu.

Chen Qiming has been the spokesperson for this jewelry company for five years, and the cooperation between the two sides has been very pleasant.

has Chen Qiming's introduction, and at the same time, according to Chen Qiming, the Ming Girl Selection Contest seems to have attracted a lot of attention.

So there was almost no need for Chen Qiming to say much, and the people he called were the same to sponsor this trial.

After calling the sponsor, Chen Qiming immediately called Qiming Film and Television and asked him to send a shooting team over.

He plans to contact the TV station to broadcast the auditions after filming the trials.

He wasn't worried that there would be no TV station to buy the rights.

He Chen Qiming is the judge of this selection competition, and he is also the person who created this selection competition.

With his influence, no matter what the quality of the subsequent auditions is, as long as he is willing to sell the TV broadcast rights, a large number of TV stations will come to his door.

No TV station will show a show with Chen Qiming's appearance.

Because, Chen Qiming is the ratings guarantee.

A superstar like him, whenever he appears on TV, there will be a large number of fans and passers-by who contribute to his ratings.

In addition to ratings, there will also be a large number of advertisers who come to the TV station to buy advertising space in the name of Chen Qiming.

This can be seen from Chen Qiming's past endorsements and advertising appeal.
