Starting with Super Girl, he began to train the Chinese entertainment industry.

Chapter 117: Private, hurry up and make your stockings work!

If fans knew this news, they would probably be riding on the heads of Zhou Bichang and Li Yuchun's fans, shouting: "Corn fans, Bichang fans, lift your heads, look my eyes, and speak!"

The Chinese music scene has produced many heroes over the decades, but no one has ever done this before.

This is unprecedented.

Once this news is announced, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entertainment industry. I wonder what those singers will think after seeing it.

Even the actors were filled with envy.

These actors have been struggling in the TV drama industry for years, unable to break into the film industry. And you, a newcomer in the music scene, are making a music video with the scale of a movie? What are you trying to do? Oh my!
People are more mad than people.

Zhang Liangying could imagine Gao Yuanyuan's reaction upon hearing the news. She would definitely hug her and say, "Ahhh, Liangying, it's so great that you have Shen Qing! Can you help me out? I'll just play a supporting role!"

……

Shen Qing: "Liangying, Liangying? What are you grinning about?"

meeting room.

The meeting hadn't ended yet, but Zhang Liangying was smiling foolishly with her head down, her face slightly flushed, clearly delighted by Shen Qing's suggestion.

now,

Hearing Shen Qing call her name, Zhang Liangying snapped back to reality. "Ah, nothing, I just think this idea is great. When do we start filming?"

Zhang Lu: "If it were filmed in the style of a movie, the time span would not be a week or two, but at least three months. There are too many intricacies involved, such as writing the script, submitting it for review, affiliating with the production company, finding a director, assembling a crew, casting, and scouting locations."

Zhang Liangying: "Huh? That's so troublesome?"

Zhang Lu nodded: "Of course, if we're going to film this, we should film it well!"

Shen Qing: "I had the same idea. I planned to release the album around October, but this 'movie' will have to wait until the end of the year."

Zhang Lu: "Making a movie is not like making a music video. You need to find a good director. Who should we ask? We definitely can't hire Zhang Yimou. First, he's too expensive, and second, he'll be joining the Olympic opening ceremony organizing committee in a few days, so he probably won't have time to take on any movies."

Chen Liang suddenly interjected, "How about we ask Feng Xiaogang?"

Zhang Lu stroked his chin. "That's a good choice. Feng Xiaogang isn't cheap, but he's not expensive either. Besides, he's one of the core figures in the Beijing circle and has many connections. He can handle things like script submissions, venues, and film licenses."

Feng Xiaogang is good at comedy films.

However, he later switched to serious films.

Next year, he will begin preparing to transition to filming "Assembly," and there will also be works such as "1942," "Aftershock," and "Youth," all of which are quite good.

His rise to fame began in 1997-1998.

At that time, he won the domestic box office champion for two consecutive years with "The Dream Factory" and "Be There or Be Square", which established his status as a commercial director.

Later, seeing Zhang Yimou's success with "Hero," he couldn't resist the urge to follow suit and made "The Banquet," which will be released this October.

Previously.

Feng Xiaogang contacted Taihe Wheatfield, hoping to invite Jane Zhang to sing the theme song "I Repay Love with All" for the movie "The Banquet".

The song has been written and will be recorded soon.

You can take this opportunity to contact him. If he can direct the film, the quality should be pretty good.

……

However, Shen Qing wanted to shoot a cinematic music video this time, not just a single segment, but like "Me and My Motherland" and "Me and My Fathers," composed of several segments.

One scene, one director!
Zhang Lu and his colleagues felt it was too much trouble. Why couldn't one director handle it all? That would save money and maintain a consistent style.

Shen Qing didn't want a uniform style; he wanted something different.

and.

Filming with several directors together makes it even more sensational!
Even the best wine needs advertising; any business needs constant promotion, and the same applies to releasing an album.

Even though Jane Zhang's last album sold out, she still can't let her guard down—the album market has been declining in recent years.

To make the second album's sales explode!
This publicity campaign needs to be as sensational as possible.

By the time.

Once the news of shooting a 'movie-style music video' was released, the outside world was definitely in an uproar.

Then, ask a few more media outlets to write some sensational articles, for example:
[Jane Zhang's second album's title track "As You Wish" features an extended music video costing 1500 million yuan to produce and may be released in theaters.]

Five top directors are heavily promoting Zhang Liangying; Shen Qing's extravagant spending has shocked everyone.

【…】

This will definitely surprise all the celebrities in the Chinese entertainment industry, not to mention their fans, who will surely celebrate wildly.

Even casual fans would be interested.

After all, this is the first time ever.

……

As for the other directors...

Who to choose?
Suddenly, the name Chen Kaige popped into Shen Qing's mind!
"No, no, apart from having a young and beautiful wife, he's a complete idiot when it comes to making movies. He hasn't learned any of his father's skills at all."

Having shaken off Chen Hong's image from her mind, Shen Qing thought of other people, such as Guan Hu, Ning Hao, Jiang Wen, Lou Ye, and Wang Xiaoshuai. The first two had participated in the creation of "My People, My Country" in their previous lives.

Guan Hu is a good friend of Huang Bo. His representative works include "Migrant Workers' Survival", "Cow", "The Chef, the Actor, and the Scoundrel" and "Mr. Six".

He directed the "Eve" segment in "My People, My Country," a short story that took place before the flag-raising ceremony at the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1949, starring Huang Bo.

Ning Hao's representative works include "Crazy Stone", "No Man's Land", and "Crazy Alien".

He directed the "Hello Beijing" segment, which is related to the Olympics, and his personal style is very obvious.

This segment is the only one in the entire film that can make the audience both laugh and cry, and the chemistry between Ge You and Ning Hao is quite good.

In addition, the "Encounter" segment is also a favorite of Shen Qing. It tells the story of an ordinary person when China developed its first nuclear bomb. Zhang Yi has no lines, but he and Ren Suxi deliver a divine performance.

These three chapters are exactly what Shen Qing wanted. Of course, the parts "Return" and "Winning the Championship" are also not to be missed.

However, both of these parts have some minor flaws.

Revisions are necessary during the scriptwriting process.

The above five segments are what Shen Qing wanted to film, and it would definitely be enough to fill two hours.

If it can't be released in theaters, it doesn't matter. Just record it as a CD and release it. Once fans buy the album and listen to "As You Wish," can they resist watching the movie?

I simply can't stand it!
But it would be even better if we could get the dragon mark.

This work can be considered a touchstone for Shen Qing's journey into the film industry. If he has more money in the future, he can delve deeper into the film industry.

After all, with so many classic works in mind, once the domestic film market takes off, just pick a few big IPs and earn over a billion yuan per film – that's a great deal!
……

This cinematic music video shares the same title as "As You Wish".

very apt.

Shen Qing decided to have Zhang Lu find a famous screenwriter, and then have Zhang Lu dictate the story to the screenwriter to write the script.

The meeting continued for another hour to finish discussing the issues concerning the screenwriter and director.

Subsequently.

Zhang Lu brought up the matter of holding a concert.

This is something many singers do one or two years after their debut.

However, to hold a concert in China, you need to report to the local government, which is not a simple matter.

Why are famous singers so keen on holding concerts?

Besides making money, there's also the opportunity to demonstrate your status!
Concerts are the best opportunity for singers to showcase their abilities. Whether you are truly strong or not, charts don't really matter; the number of audience members at your concert is the best proof.

For some singers, tickets sell out instantly; while for others, even after lowering prices again and again, no one buys them.

That's when you'll know who the king and queen are.

Currently, Liangying has released 23 songs. At 4 minutes per song, that's a paltry 92 minutes, far from enough for a concert.

If they only sing a few songs at their first concert, that would be really disappointing, and the fans would definitely be very disappointed.

Not long ago, Jay Chou held his Incomparable World Tour from October 2004 to February 2006, singing an average of 30+ songs per show, with each show lasting 3-4 hours, and every show was sold out.

Moreover, there were times when he sang more than 40 songs.

At his peak, Zhou was incredibly strong.

……

That evening, Zhang Lu arranged for Shen Qing to have dinner with the editor-in-chief of Sina Entertainment at a hot pot restaurant near the Second Ring Road.

When he heard Shen Qing's idea, he was completely stunned, thinking he had misheard. "Making a movie for the main song? What an outrageous idea!"

But when the editor-in-chief realized that it was Shen Qing who was going to do this, he felt relieved.

Who is Shen Qing?

The youngest musical prodigy in the country, everything he does is perfectly reasonable!

Shen Qing laughed and said, "President Wu, could you please hire one of your company's top writers tomorrow to help us write a really explosive article?"

Editor-in-Chief Wu took a swig of beer and laughed, "Hey, I don't need anyone else to write it. I'll handle it myself, and the click rate will definitely explode."

back home.

Shen Qing, her face flushed, lay on the sofa. "Private Shadow, I've been in meetings and writing songs all day. Hurry up and change into a lace nightgown and give me a back massage."

Zhang Liangying stood at attention and saluted, saying, "Yes, sir!"

Shen Qing took off her T-shirt, rolled over, and lay face down on the sofa.

Not a moment.

The sound of footsteps on the wooden floor came from afar.

beep~
Judging from the sound of Zhang Liangying running, you could tell how excited and happy she was. She climbed onto the sofa and used her stockinged feet to massage Shen Qing's back.

Shen Qing: "Ying, I told you to press with your hands, not your feet!"

Zhang Liangying: "Sir, I hand-washed these stockings with disinfectant after I bought them, they are absolutely safe!"

"Damn it, Shadow, I'm more than satisfied with your answer!"

The stockings are tickling my back!
Can't stand it.

Shen Qing turned over and saw that Zhang Liangying was also wearing two stockings on her hands.

Ok?
Wearing stockings on your hands, what are you trying to do?
"Private Shadow, tell me now, why are you wearing stockings on your hands? What are you planning to do to your superior?"

"Reporting, sir, in order to give you a massage and make you happy."

"Happiness? What makes you happy!?"

Use this~

"Then why don't you just put one on your mouth?!"

"Wow, sir, you truly are a superior officer. This idea is so innovative. I'll go right away."

"Come back, Private Shadow. Start with your hands in stockings. I've never experienced anything like it before. Show me what you've got, and don't let me underestimate you!"

"Yes, sir! I will do my best!"

"Hiss... Private First Class, you did a fantastic job! Keep going, don't stop! I'm bursting with inspiration right now... another hit song... is coming out."

"Hurry up, give your stockings some gas..."
