Chapter 786: Album Listing

At first, he thought that the Huabiao Award was a big deal just to win Fu Hongxue, but Li Qian couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, but this is not the end!

In the final period of the awards ceremony, the Huabiao Awards officials turned it into Wu Han's personal show!

Best director, plus best movie!

More than 20 days ago, Zhao Meicheng had just achieved a box office record of over 100 million in a single week. After more than 20 days, Wu Han completed his personal apotheosis at the Huabiao Awards!

Lu Ping, Li Qian, Jin Han, Han Shunzhang, all the people of the same age, at this moment, are all crushed into scum!

Lu Ping has won the Great Wall Award for Best Director, but such an award as the Great Wall Award is a scumbag in front of the force of the Huabiao Award! Li Qian has won the Feitian Award and the Great Wall Award for the best director and best TV series in the TV series, but hey, your TV series, how dare you compare them!

As for Jin Han and Han Shunzhang... what masterpieces do you have? What box office have you ever had? What honors have you received? Scum, pure scum, there is no need to mention it!

Wu Han was ecstatic!

It was the second time on stage tonight, and he received the Best Director Award at the Huabiao Awards. He seemed a little incoherent with excitement—he was born in 1971, studied at the Directing Department of Suncheon Film Academy from 1989 to 1993, and signed the contract in 1995. Dongfang Culture started to direct the first film, and in the past seven or eight years, there have been works coming out one after another, but even so, according to the calculation of the lunar calendar, the Spring Festival has not yet passed, and he is still 30 years old now! And "Across the World" is only his fifth movie!

"Thank you, thank you! Thank you to the organizer for sending me such an important award. I am really excited! Thank you Jay Chou for trusting me over the years. It is you who gave me the first opportunity to be a director and make a movie. , It is also you who have supported me and encouraged me all these years, thank you Mr. Zong, thank you for your cultivation and supervision for so many years, thank you Mr. Zhao, thank you for your trust in me, and of course, thank you to every member of this drama team, Laobian, Hongxue, and all the actors, for your wonderful performances, thank you for the hard work and hard work of every behind-the-scenes staff, it is you who gave me the opportunity to stand on this stage today, thank you everyone! Finally, through this Opportunity, I want to thank my parents...Dad, Mom, did you see that I won an award, the best director!"

There was thunderous applause.

No one would laugh at his gaffe and choking.

Of course, ten minutes later, as one of the three producers of "Across the World", he appeared on stage for the third time tonight. Although he was still excited, he seemed to restrain himself a lot.

Because beside him, stood his two big proprietors.

The general manager of Dongfang Culture, Zong Chengze, is very familiar with Li Qian. The chairman of Dongfang Yuanhui Media, Zhao Zhentao. As a pioneering work, Li Qian met him at the premiere of "Across the World".

Zong Chengze was Zhou Yanghua's chief housekeeper, and when he took the stage to accept the award, he acted very calm and graceful. After saying a few words, he gave up the microphone to Zhao Zhentao, who couldn't control himself.

Originally just came in to test the waters, who would have thought that the first film would make a lot of money and even win an award, of course he has reason to be excited!

However, listening to his not-so-calm speech reminded Li Qian of a recent gossip.

Wu Han is Zhou Yanghua's stable production of works every year. Although he doesn't make much money, he is always making money. No matter how big the oriental culture is, no matter how powerful he is, and no matter how great Du Weiyun is, someone like Wu Han can make money steadily The director, Zhou Yanghua, will never be too much.

At the beginning, I met a big financial backer who came from an outsider, and the other party expressed that he would invest in a movie, and wanted to test the waters by investing in a movie with Dongfang Culture. Of course, Zhou Yanghua didn't want to let outsiders get in Du Weiyun's car, so he chose after another, thinking that Wu Han was more reliable, and the other party was just testing the waters anyway, so he agreed.

It is rumored in the industry that Dongfang Culture will contribute 30% of the capital, and provide directors, scripts and crews, etc., and will be responsible for the main shooting, production, and future distribution and release. Dongyuan Media will contribute 70%, and don't care about anything, just send a financial person. The two parties agreed that the box office proceeds would be shared 50-50, but the copyright belonged to Dongyuan Media—this seems a bit of a mouthful, but it actually meant that things had to be placed with Zhao Zhentao of Dongyuan Media. Nod, just don't care how to sell, as long as you sell for money, you will get half of the family!

Zhou Yanghua's idea is very shrewd. Anyway, Wu Han's film probably can't be compensated. You can't say that I cheated you, but I will take 30% of the money and share 50% of the box office revenue. It is much higher than the full investment by yourself, and the other party takes 70% of the money to share 50% of the box office-note that it is directly divided into the box office, not the profit. This is not a concept-it is estimated that it is on the line of guarantee That's all.

You see, not only sharing the financial pressure, but also not making less money, how smart!

Anyway, as a layman, people are stupid and have a lot of money, so it’s good if I don’t just cheat you!

As for the copyright issue, I will give it to you, anyway, no matter how you sell it in the future, even if you sell it for 100 million yuan, I will get half of the money!

But, things are so weird, even if you beat Zhou Yanghua to death, Wu Han, who has always been tepid and slow, has always been considered to have limited talent, but Wu Han, who is better at showing off, after years of experience under his hands , This year it suddenly broke out!

"Across the World" actually broke the box office of 200 million in the summer file!

The total investment is only 20 million! The theater chain will divide the money first, and Dongfang Culture will be responsible for the distribution, and then divide the distribution and publicity part, but even so, according to the account sharing agreement, the two parts will only be divided into about tens of millions, and finally fall into the account of the producer The box office share is still as high as 130 million!

In other words, although Dongfang Culture only invested 6 million yuan, even if they got back 65 million yuan with interest, they definitely made a fortune! What's more, Oriental Culture is also making money from distribution and promotion, and even their theater chains are making another share of money, but that's not okay, and I feel wronged!

Dongfang Yuanhui has no farts like this, and only invested 14 million layman fools who came in, and performed on the stage of oriental culture. The director, script, production, distribution, and promotion are all done by oriental culture, but they are stunned. I also divided 65 million in the past, and after doing the math, in less than a year, I didn't do anything, and I made a net profit of 51 million!

And for such a popular movie, his follow-up accounts will come one after another!

Part of the DVD needs to be sold, and some theaters will use it to fill movie theaters during the off-season.

Not to mention, although Chinese-language movies are hard to say right now, especially movies like "Across the World", if you are not familiar with the domestic society, it is not easy to substitute, but it has already become so popular, such as Japan, Korea, etc. In Southeast Asia, you can still sell as much as you want!

Although it is definitely not comparable to "My Sassy Girlfriend", which is a catch-all movie that still hits all directions and caused a storm in Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, but a few million can still be accounted for!

The inside and outside are added together, and the profit margin can hardly be described by the unit of "times"!

So everyone guessed that Zhou Yanghua probably regretted his bowels!

And this is not the most important thing. The key point is that Zhao Zhentao of Dongyuan Media has tasted the sweetness all of a sudden. Since "Across the World" became a big hit, he has successfully tested the waters, and then his heart suddenly warmed up. In the second half of this year, it is said that he has been staring at Wu Han!

However, when Wu Han signed the director contract with Oriental Culture back then, the first contract was two films in four years, and it was completed in 1999. The second contract was from 1999 to 2005, four films in six years, and now there are still One, oriental culture had little binding force on him. At the beginning, because his film profits were not too high, and as a director, he had no topic and popularity for thousands of years, so the liquidated damages were only a mere five million!

Don't say five million, even if it is ten million, Zhao Zhentao, who has tasted the sweetness now, will pay for it!

The most sought-after director in China today is at least worth the price!

Therefore, it is said that Zhou Yanghua and Zong Chengze are both big heads now.

On the contrary, if you look at Wu Han now, it seems that he has won three awards. After the excitement, he gradually calmed down - the box office has a huge harvest, and the word of mouth is also bursting. Up to now, the best screenwriter, best director and best film With the three awards in hand, Fu Hongxue was also sealed in his hands!

In a person's life, he has come to this point at the age of thirty, so what else is there to worry about?

…………

The feast ended at last.

Noisy, you sing, I come on stage, suddenly looking back, I find that after several years of hard work, Minghu Culture is still only second-rate in film and television.

Li Qian was slightly disappointed.

However, it was only a temporary disappointment. When I got into the car, I sent Wu Han a congratulatory text message. As the car moved forward, watching the flashing street scene outside, my heart gradually calmed down again.

Cooking oil with fresh flowers and brocade fire is certainly a happy moment in life, and everyone must want it, but I know what I am pursuing.

The little bustling in front of me should not have fooled my eyes or confused my heart.

Judging from now, or even from the perspective of three to five years later, today's grand event has indeed set the tone for the next few years.

Niche literary and artistic films only received some leftovers from the big cake. A master figure like Du Weiyun came with a work that was not bad in quality and had a big box office harvest, but he was received coldly. "Across the World" was very popular , Fu Hongxue sealed the queen, Wu Han sealed the gods!

If you expand your field of vision a little more, purely commercial films are still not favored by the Huabiao Awards, but if you have no box office at all, even if it is only from the perspective of influence, the Huabiao Awards will not give you too much face.

The masters of the past have turned to big productions, and the organizers of the Huabiao Awards seem not very happy. On the contrary, the cutting-edge directors, as long as they can handle the gap between business and literature, they will be rewarded without hesitation!

This game of chess was played a bit complicated by the sponsor.

However, no matter what their considerations are, their field of vision is still a bit narrow.

Entertaining oneself behind closed doors, encouraging some things, and suppressing some things, is what the sponsors of every award are doing, but the three major awards in the domestic film and television industry only focus on the small domestic market. It is really helpless!

Of course, after tonight, these things will be temporarily put aside.

Because what Li Qian is going to do next is obviously more important!

On February 2, 2002, the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, the third album of the Four Beauties will be released globally simultaneously under the Chinese name "Dream Back to Tang Dynasty" and the English name "Four-Beauty".

In China and Southeast Asia, Minghu Culture is in charge of publishing, and in other parts of the world, Universal Music is in charge of publishing. On the album cover released by Minghu Culture, it is the traditional position of the four beauties bands. Li Qian is in the middle, Liao Liao They are on both sides with Cao Zhan, Yu Bojun, and Wang Huaiyu, but the album version released in other parts of the world is Liao Liao standing in the middle!

No way, no matter how popular Li Qian is, few people know him outside of Asia, but Liao Liao is the queen of the world!

Then, since the album was released, Li Qian's work was over. The Four Beauties never did any album promotion, so the rest of the work was done by Qi Jie.

And the more it came to this time, the more Li Qian liked to bury himself, and he didn't want anyone to find him, and this time was no exception.

What's more, the promotion of the album this time was just half a month before the album was released, so many people were shocked when they heard the news, and wondered if it was fake news.

Then, it is conceivable that even with the attention and influence of Li Qian, Liao Liao, and the four beauties in China, there is not enough publicity time, which will have an important impact on the album's early release results, and even more so. What's more, during the Spring Festival, everyone is busy going home?

Therefore, although many media immediately became lively as soon as the publicity was put on, but on the whole, the sensation caused by the release of this album is far inferior to that of "Once Upon a Time", or even worse than that of Li Qian's first solo album.

In this way, on a very "two" day, this album was released.

But even so, the four beauties are the four beauties after all, this album has attracted a lot of attention since it was released, and after listening to it, almost every fan will tell everyone!

Especially the major music and entertainment media in China, after seeing the promotional copy of Minghu Culture, they were already excited. When they got the new album and listened to it, they immediately became bloody!

Also at this time, just two days after the album was released, it was directly listed on the "World Cup Song Recommendation List" by the General Administration of Sport of China and the 2002 World Cup Preparatory Committee!

That is to say, before the World Cup, major radio stations and TV stations across the country will be required to actively promote it to the whole people, and will also promote it to the whole world in the name of the World Cup Organizing Committee.

Overnight, the world became popular!
