Chapter 134. Second album [2-in-1]

Throughout 06 years, the two films "Send You a Little Red Flower" and "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" completed by the Beijing Film Academy were successful in terms of awards and box office respectively.

The crew involved, whether teachers or students, have made a lot of reputation in the industry, Jiang Wei, as the head of the Chinese Department of Beiying, doesn't know whether he is a little red or wants to prove himself again, and suddenly he has the idea of becoming a director again.

That's right, this is not Jiang Wei's first time as a director.

Born as a screenwriter, he completed his directorial debut in 03, "Silent Witness".

This drama tells my story about criminal psychology, focusing on suspense and solving cases, which can be regarded as a precedent for this kind of theme in China, and many people in the industry are optimistic, but after the series is released, the ratings are average, and the pure applause is not popular.

Maybe in 03, the audience still doesn't like this kind of heavy and brain-burning crime drama, and the show has gone through several twists and turns in the review from the production to the final broadcast, and it took more than a year to barely recover the cost.

Jiang learned from the pain and analyzed the reasons himself.

The main problem is still in the subject matter and plot, the theme of criminal psychology is a bit ahead of the audience at the beginning of the 21st century, and in those years it was definitely the world of costume dramas and bitter dramas, and his theme was not popular by nature.

Again, the plot is too heavy, and the whole drama is too dark and depressing, which affects the audience's viewing mood.

So the results are not good.

Jiang Wei is also ready to start with TV series this time, and in terms of theme selection, he still hasn't given up the suspense theme he is keen on.

But he also learned a lesson this time, the inner core is suspense, yes, but the background of the whole story and the setting of the characters he is ready to cleverly package it to achieve the purpose of attracting the audience.

In addition to the crime theme, it seems that there is only spy warfare left.

Jiang Wei created his own works while painstakingly looking for adaptations.

After a month, there was no progress in the creation. It really made him find a satisfactory one.

It is the short spy war category just published by writer Long Yi in 2006, "Latent".

The original book of "Latent" is very different from the classic spy war TV series that was widely known in later generations.

As a short story, the original work of "Latent" is only more than 10,000 words.

It mainly tells the story of the period of the Liberation War, when Yu Zecheng, a loyal underground member of our party, obeyed the organization's arrangement and lurked at the Tianjin Station of the Guodang Military Command Bureau, serving as a major adjutant and director of the confidential office.

During the incubation period, due to the need for disguise, he was mistakenly arranged by the organization to be a fake husband and wife with Cui Ping, a rude rural female guerrilla.

This is where the story begins.

Yu Zecheng, a little intellectual who is a little clean, is mature and introverted, and has a heroic spirit far beyond ordinary people under his calm appearance, but he is partnered with Cui Ping, a simple, pungent and inflexible upright woman from the countryside.

During the period when the two pretended to be husband and wife to carry out the hidden mission together, because of their different backgrounds and experiences, they clashed constantly in life and personality, and in the two years of getting along, the two gradually deepened their understanding of each other from each other's confrontation, misunderstanding and conflict, and finally developed a relationship.

The whole story has conflict and tension, and the background of the story can be classified as the enduring anti-Japanese war theme on the market.

Jiang Wei couldn't put this story down, and immediately made up his mind to adapt it.

Later, after inquiring in many ways, contacting the author, and explaining his intentions, he found that he was one step late, and the adaptation rights of the original work had been won by Sun Yi, or bought by Sun Yi's studio.

The young man who was talking eloquently in the school conference room and recommending his own script once again entered Jiang Wei's field of vision.

When Sun Yi received a call from Director Jiang Wei, he was in Wang Jingtian's studio, oh, his current music studio.

With the release of the movie "Those Years", the first month sales of his second album also came out.

A full 500,000 sheets.

The first month of sales of this second album is almost equal to the total sales of his last album.

The reason for the surge in sales is not only the promotional strategy tied to the movie "Those Years", but also the core is that the songs he chooses are classics.

The first song is "Writing Poems for You".

"Love is a strange thing, but also a skill." The simple two lyrics describe the characteristics of love, and many people think that this lyrics song is simple, like a saliva song.

But Sun Yi feels that the simpler it is, the more you can see the foundation, the ear-catching melody and concise lyrics and songs have exhausted the true meaning of love.

"In love, each of us becomes a fool."

The second song is "May I Win the Heart of One".

"I only want to win the heart of one person, and the white head is not separated, these simple words require great courage."

The easy-to-understand lyrics, beautiful melody, and the combination of Sun Yi's classical poetry and popular singing express the beautiful vision of love and the beautiful expectation of mutual love between men and women.

In the whole song, there are regrets that life is only as it was when I first saw it, as well as the sadness of passing away into the arms of the king, and there are also vows that will not be separated, and the emotions that are vaguely between the words are low.

As soon as it was released, it became a must-listen choice for love song lovers.

The third song is "In My Singing".

This song was sung by bald foam in the previous life, and people are declining, but the song is a good song, and the female version of the original song is also very good.

The whole song expresses regret and nostalgia for love.

Love is gone.

But it did exist.

There have been many places.

"In my dreams, in my heart, in my singing."

This is a lyrical style song, close to life, the whole song is very emotional, the emotions in the song are constantly sublimated, nostalgic in the future, and tears in the future.

It is a sad song chosen by Sun Yi, and it feels nothing at first hearing, but the more you listen to it, the more flavorful it becomes, and you can taste different feelings every time.

The fourth song is "Li Bai".

First of all, this is indeed a saliva song without a doubt.

But Sun Yi liked to listen to it in his previous life, just like what was told in the song.

"Most people want me to learn to see, the world's vision, and I certify that I have learned the world's vision, and the world's vision is until dawn."

In today's society, most people live in an environment bound by various rules and regulations, and we have been taught to be a person from childhood to adulthood, and the pressure of family, career, and marriage are constantly exerted on us.

As we all know, the life of the great poet Li Bai is frustrated, but he is indeed extremely free and easy, Sun Yi wants to taste the entanglements of the world like Li Bai, and then still be able to live the happiness and open-mindedness he yearns for.

The fifth song is "The Light Chaser"

This song is simply "a miracle comedy from bad movies since ancient times." "The best interpretation.

In later generations, as the theme song of the big bad movie "Summer Solstice Has Not Arrived", it became popular all over the Internet as soon as it was released.

The whole song is clean and soothing, the lyrics are sincere, the expression is straight to the heart, warm and healing, and affectionate.

Sun Yi hesitated for a long time when choosing the theme song of the movie "Those Years", and this "Light Chaser" is also very good. The indescribable love in it makes people unconsciously fall into the memories of youth.

"I can follow you like a shadow chasing the light."

"I can wait at this intersection, whether you pass by or not."

"Whenever I look up for you, even tears feel free."

After several choices, Sun Yi finally chose the original version of "Those Years", he felt that in the song "Light Chaser", he expressed his helplessness about fate more than regret for youth, and the song "Those Years" was more closely related to the theme of the movie.

"You are the fireworks of the sea" "I am the foam of the waves"

"Fireworks" and "bubbles" are both beautiful, but they are both short-lived, like the intersection of fate, which may just be an accident.

After Sun Yi's song "Light Chaser" was launched, it was the most adapted song by the majority of netizens, and many fans expressed their love for their idols with their favorite celebrity photos.

This is something Sun Yi didn't expect, which shows how crazy the fan base is, but it also indirectly promotes the overall sales of his albums.

Regarding the choice of the last song, Sun Yi was a boss at that time.

In the end, after several hesitations, I still chose the song of Wang Fried.

Blue and White Porcelain by Jayy

No way, this song is so classic.

The whole song is logically rigorous, the words are beautiful, and the poetry is picturesque, which is simply an ancient style book.

The story begins with an action scene, "the plain embryo outlines the blue and white brushstrokes", and the peony on the bottle reminds me of your first makeup. When I think of you, I can't paint anymore, and the sandalwood came, and the pen was put aside halfway.

At this point, the scene at the beginning of the whole story is built, and it is completely natural.

"Azure and other smoke and rain,"

Azure is the color that only appears after rain and sunny days. Azure can't appear on its own, only after the smoke and rain, the cumulus clouds disperse, and the clear sky can show the color of azure.

The azure-colored color is also the color of the pure high-grade Ru kiln, and the azure-blue color is a very difficult color to make after the rain, and the azure-colored porcelain will only appear under the condition of smoke and rain.

"And I'm waiting for you,"

The two waited thousands of miles across the river.

So I tried my best to keep it elegant, writing Han Li at the bottom of the bottle, but I also understood that our ending was like a faint moonlight, ethereal like a dream, like a hand-me-down blue and white porcelain, wishful thinking, and self-beauty.

This song is really Wang Bang, and after its release, it really caused a sensation in the entire music world, not only fans, but also many professional musicians to look at Sun Yi as a singer-songwriter.

Netizens even gave a very high evaluation of this song.

"In terms of artistic conception, "Blue and White Porcelain" is like a hazy Jiangnan ink painting, and between the sprouts of water and clouds, you can vaguely see the white clothes and skirts of the Yiren flying around."

"In terms of words and sentences, "Blue and White Porcelain" is a plain heart note written by the window, and the twists and turns of the pen are only because the heart is like a double wire net, and there are thousands of knots."

"In terms of tune, "Blue and White Porcelain" is like a mountain spring stream flowing quietly on the stone in the breeze, cold and translucent, and winding and looping, with many inexhaustible meanings."

It is these six classic songs, plus "Those Years", "A Little Sweet", "Young and Promising", and "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", these ten songs form Sun Yi's second album that can be called Wang Bang.

The explosion of the album brought Sun Yi great popularity, which is why the movie earned nearly 70 million at the box office in those years.

When Sun Yi put down the phone, he realized that Director Jiang Wei had taken a fancy to the copyright of "Latent" in his studio.

I want to buy it at a premium.

Sun Yi thought about it for a while, it seems that "Latent" in his previous life was filmed by Director Jiang Wei as the director and screenwriter, and the whole play invited a group of old actors with superb acting skills to star, shaping a generation of classics.

Later generations Douban scored 9.4.

Based on the strictness of domestic netizens on domestic dramas, more than 100,000 people scored it, and it was still 9.4 points, which is enough to see the classics of "Latent".

The adaptation rights of the script must not be transferred, and it cannot be sold for any amount of money.

If you sell it, you're a fool.

Through the film income of "Those Years", Sun Yi also saw that in the current Chinese film and television industry, movies are far less profitable than TV series.

In 2006, the total box office income of Huaxia films was less than 3 billion yuan, which was generally the box office income of foreign imported blockbusters, and the domestic box office was divided into half by the films produced by various big stars.

The advertising revenue of major satellite TV stations during the broadcast time of TV dramas throughout the year is as much as 20 billion, a difference of nearly ten times.

If nothing else, let's talk about "Soldier Assault".

Throughout December, "Soldier Assault" entered the third round of broadcasting, this time with the participation of ten TV stations, although the price of a single episode has dropped, but it can't stand the large number, the entire third round of broadcasting rights, once again let Sun Yi's studio into the account of more than 500 yuan.

A "Soldier Assault" made Sun Yi earn more than 2,500 yuan as a whole.

It can be seen that if you want to make money these days, then making a TV series is the best choice.

Movies can be used as a form of existence.

And Yu Zecheng, the protagonist of "Latent", is definitely a classic among classics, and Sun Yi is very greedy.

In terms of acting, Sun Yi is now confident, he feels that he has the ability to complete this role, the only problem is his age, he is now less than 20 years old, and his appearance is still too tender with makeup.

There is really nothing that can be done about this, Yu Zecheng is a mature man in his 30s in the original book.

Sun Yi is very sure of the character's mentality, but as for this young appearance, he is a little unsure.

As we all know, the age group played by an actor is about 5 years old, and it is much easier to "play young" than "play old".

In later generations, it is not uncommon for actresses who can be aunts of their age to still play young girls, which is enough to prove it.

Originally, his worries were well resolved.

It's okay if the adaptation rights are not sold, the contracts in black and white are signed, and no one can take them forcibly.

Put the book in your hand for two or three years, and then he will be almost the same as acting.

But he also doesn't want to give up Jiang Wei, not that he has to, but that a TV series needs to consume two or three times as long as a movie from preparation to filming to the final stage.

Sun Yi doesn't have so much time to spend on TV series.

And as Sun Yi, who has just released a movie, he also needs an independently directed film to establish his directorial status.

Now that Director Jiang Wei has come to the door by himself, and he is also the original director and screenwriter in his previous life, this is a proper tool man, if he doesn't use it, he is really a little unhappy.

I don't know if Director Jiang Wei can agree. Judging from "Latent" in his previous life, Jiang Wei still has his own ideas about the choice of actors.

Sorry, I'm late for the night shift tonight.

Do you think it's appropriate for you to play the role of Yu Zecheng?

Friendly comments are welcome.

I will make up the arrears as soon as possible.
