At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 365 Album Press Conference

Shen Xudong wants to take in some tool workers...

Zheng Baorui is not a perfect candidate, but... not bad.

His execution ability is very strong, more than 20 versions of "Accident" were cut in the original time and space...

What Shen Xudong wants is this kind of director!
Don't get too personal expressive...

Zheng Baorui will most likely accept it, after all, the script of "Crazy" is really good.

Plus, he later joined Galaxy Image...

Pulling it over is also considered a weakening.

Yinhe Video has recruited many good directors, and there is also You Dazhi, who is also Shen Xudong's recruiting target.

You Dazhi's filming of "Dark Flower" made the investors unhappy, so there was Du Qifeng's re-shooting...

As for where is the problem?
It is not known, but from the parallel slogan of commercial art at the beginning of Galaxy's founding, and the financial difficulties of Galaxy in those years, it can be seen that maybe You Dazhi is too personal.

Then, You Dazhi was almost abandoned...

"Dark Flower" is quite good. The cramped sense of space and cold sense of fate make this film have a different temperament from that of Hong Kong films at that time, and even later.

The symbolic atmosphere is completely deviated from the usual ways of Hong Kong films...

But it's useless, not selling well is the original sin!

You Dazhi left Galaxy.

In fact, it's normal, Yinhe video highlights To Qifeng and Wei Jiahui. To Qifeng is the signature, and more or less ignores other main creators. It is difficult for You Dazhi to be reused!

After You Dazhi left Yinhe, he went back to Malaysia to shoot TV dramas.

Recently, I also cooperated with TVB to film "The Legend of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty" and "Overturning the Rain and Overturning the Clouds"...

Later, he went north to develop and filmed "Strange Hero Yizhimei", "Wuxin Master", and by the way, "The Mekong River Case"...

Both of them can be recruited!

Speaking of "Old Thousand", the heroine is directly matched with Gong Li...

As the male lead, I guess Deng Chao has to be used.

The cost is 4000 million, and half of the cost can be recovered from the revenue of the patch advertisement.

If overseas distribution is handed over to Golden Harvest, the probability of making money is quite high!
Of course, Tianmei Company is in charge of the production, and it will bring together a few powerful companies...

This is Gao Fenfen's proposal. Her original words: "Our company can completely operate independently. We have funds, scripts, distribution capabilities, and can attract funds... Find a few directors and shoot by yourself!"

Shen Xudong also deeply agrees...

Most importantly, "Crazy" is a series, and the copyright is very valuable!
Of course, Shen Xudong has other insurance measures. He reminded Gao Fenfen: "You recruit a few investors, and then let them sign the priority repayment system..."

"Priority repayment system?"

Shen Xudong explained: "Literally... as the copyright owner, we can take you to play, but we must ensure that our funds are returned first... By the way, we also guarantee a 20% profit, that is to say, as long as it is released, our income is guaranteed to be 20%. [-]%..."

"This is too harsh... who will agree?"

"...This is very common in the field of finance and investment. Some people want to invest in movies. We take them to play, and we don't cheat them. It's just that the contract is harsher... It's very cheap for them!"

……

In the original time and space, the priority payment system is the first application of Galloping Horse, "Robot Man"!

Although "Robot Man" ended up with an overall loss in the film, Galloping Pony became the only investor who made money in the entire film.

Because the copyright of "Robot Man" belongs to Galloping Pony, and the director Liu Zhenwei is also the contracted director of Galloping Pony. If you want to invest in a movie, you have to follow this priority payment contract!

If you think it's unfair, you don't have to vote.

"Old Thousand" is the same...

Of course, there is a casting condition for all this: persuade Gong Li to play the role!
After "Memoirs of a Geisha" was released, Gong Li's agency accepted her a Hollywood production, "Miami Vice"...

How to persuade her to focus her career back in China requires the efforts of Shen Xudong!

Well, he flew to America on purpose...

……

Chen Hao's album is named "Chen Hao"...

The company has no idea about album sales - last year, only Jay Chou, Pu Shu, and Dao Lang sold 100 million albums in China last year, and the albums of other people only need to sell 20 or 30 to be considered a particularly popular album. Zhao Yanzi So popular, last year's "Gone with the Wind" only sold 50...

Even if it can exceed 10, the cost will be recovered.

More than 10, you can continue to operate.

Buy a few prizes, operate an amphibious superstar or something...

The name is very useful, and you can get more appearance fees if you run commercial performances or go to acupuncture points!
Album launch...

Originally, I wanted to sing and dance in a style-to learn from the most popular Jolin Tsai.

But after looking at the whole album, it was either in the style of jazz music, or the style of elegant folk songs, or forget it. A swing was set up at the scene, and Chen Hao sang her favorite "Leo" directly in a white dress...

Shen Xudong is playing the guitar next to him...

'...Just this time, I don't want to be a singer; if you can, you can also write a song for me...Please don't ask what month is Capricorn, please don't say, only friendship can live forever..."

After singing this, she got down from the swing, walked to Shen Xudong's side, and stared at him...

This made Shen Xudong feel a little nervous. Could it be that she wanted to force her to kiss her in public?

Fortunately, not at all, I just signaled him to come over with my eyes...

Shen Xudong had no choice but to come out from the corner holding the guitar, held her hand, and screamed all kinds of people from the audience.

After all, there are still many fans of these two CPs!
But it was only for a while, according to the process, Chen Hao even sang five songs, "Possible Night", "The Most Angel", "Elope" and "The Wind Blows the Wheat Waves"...

The response from the venue was pretty good...

Then it was time for a bunch of seniors and friends in the industry to send blessings, Sun Nan, Tong Dawei, Xue Jianing, Lu Yi all came...

Everyone sent flowers and said some auspicious words, such as 'it sounds so good', 'the album is selling well' and so on.

It is a fixed process!

Finally, there is routine media interview time.

"Many actors release albums because they need to sing when participating in some programs or activities. Is it the same for you?"

"...Of course not...I have liked since I was a child..."

"As a newcomer, you seem to have put a lot of effort into this album? Do you think that as an actor, you can let fans pay for it?"

"This also shows how much I value the album..."

I'll go, these questions are quite sharp!

Shen Xudong stood aside the whole time, chatting with Zhang Aidong—the producer of "Chen Hao" is Zhang Aidong.

Ahem, Shen Xudong has always longed for Zhang Yudong's circle, that is the circle, men and women are arranged in various combinations, and after the event, they are still good friends with each other. This is something that Japanese movies dare not make like this!
So artistic.

Zhang Yudong liked Shen Xudong quite a lot, because Shen Xudong was also very talented, but unfortunately, they just chatted for a while, and they didn't hit it off!

They hit it off immediately, and then made an appointment to play mahjong, and then they could get to know Wang Fei.

what?
Wang Fei is not good-looking, he has no breasts and no butt...

This is called chasing stars, you know what a fart!

Suddenly, I heard a media interview: "Xudong, "Cruel Street" broke through 8000 million box office in Asia, what's the next plan?"

"...Ah? This is Sister Chen Hao's album launch, you ask this?"
