Entertainment 1998

Chapter 280 279, Standing Out from the Crowd

Jiang Feng has superstar style...

To be honest, Huo Wenxi, who has a unique vision, has not figured it out yet, but it is true that this kid has talent.

He releases an album every year, and all the songs are written by him. The English songs he wrote also successfully pushed Wang Fei into the international music scene.

Well, there is also news that has just come from the film and television circles that the movie "Saw" written, directed and acted by Jiang Feng has not yet officially participated in the St. Denis Film Festival in the United States, but it has been spotted by the Hollywood film and television company Lionsgate, which said it would buy the distribution rights of this movie in the North American film market for 700 million US dollars.

wipe!
When the news first came out, no one in the circle dared to believe it, because the highest bid from Hollywood for a Chinese film before was only 350 million US dollars. Well... you have to know that the movie was "Farewell My Concubine" with a star-studded cast and an investment of 3000 million Hong Kong dollars.

What about Jiang Feng’s “Saw”?

The filming took 9 days and the investment was 176 million RMB. Of this 176 million RMB investment, 70 RMB was spent on the film salaries of Leslie Cheung and Tony Leung Ka Fai alone.

And precisely because of this, Huo Wenxi came to Beijing at this most critical juncture. On the surface, she came to coordinate Xie Tingfeng's appearance on the Dragon Year Spring Festival Gala, but in fact, she came with Boss Yang's full sincerity to sign Jiang Feng!
Jiang Feng, your record contract is signed with Universal Music, and you will be directly facing the global music market; then come over and sign your actor agency contract, director agency contract and screenwriter agency contract with Yinghuang Entertainment. As long as you sign the contract, we will help your career go international.

Huo Wenxi, who was standing in the crowd, was thinking about it when she saw Jiang Feng holding the microphone and speaking again.

...

"Thank you, thank you everyone!"

"Please cooperate. We need to vacate about 200 square meters of space near the elevator entrance for us to shoot the commercial."

"Our ad is very simple. It shows the beautiful Ms. Fan Jiuyi, who played Jinsuo in My Fair Princess, coming down the elevator with a bottle of Wahaha pure water in her hand.

My band and I were singing at the elevator entrance. When we sang 'It's You I Love', my hand accidentally pointed towards the elevator, and Miss Fan Jiuyi misunderstood that I was flirting with her.

So, Miss Fan Jiuyi came over shyly and said that she didn’t have a boyfriend yet and could make an appointment, so I said that ‘I love you’ was specifically referring to the Wahaha pure water in her hand…”

"Ha ha…"

Jiang Feng had just introduced the plot of the commercial to this point when the lobby on the first floor of Guiyou Shopping Mall was filled with laughter.

When everyone's laughter died down, Jiang Feng, who was holding the microphone, asked, "Is the plot of this advertisement interesting?"

"Fun!" everyone said in unison.

"Is it simple?"

"Simple!" everyone said in unison again.

“Is it easy to shoot?”

"Very easy to shoot!" someone in the crowd shouted.

"Well, everyone got it right."

Jiang Feng smiled and nodded.

“So now, I ask everyone to give me some convenience and let Director Zhang Yibai and his team finish shooting the next ad, and then it will be time for me to interact with everyone.

I believe you have also noticed that there is a band in director Zhang Yibai’s team, and the musicians in these bands are all my partners in producing music albums.

Like lead guitarist Zhao Yiran, drummer Zhao Muyang, keyboardist Zang Hongfei, bassist Zhang Chu, who is also a rock master in our music scene, guitarist Gao Qi, who is also the lead singer of the top domestic rock band Overload..."

It’s just so impressive!

Every time Jiang Feng introduced a musician to the fans, the musician would stand up and bow to everyone. You have to know that these guys usually look down on their fans.

The fans were also very cooperative and applauded when the musicians bowed.

By the time Jiang Feng finished introducing the musicians in his team, the crowd of more than 1000 fans who had gathered at the scene quickly and proactively dispersed, leaving an area of ​​more than 300 square meters.

What's more, several fans with good organizational skills even put up cordons at the scene to maintain order.

……

Although Zhang Yibai and his team had never encountered such a situation when shooting MVs before, they had good professional skills and professional ethics, and they automatically dispersed when they saw the crowd.

So everyone got busy. One team went to the escalator, stopped the escalator, and then arranged the lighting equipment, the lighting technician holding the reflector, and the photographer carrying the camera...

The purpose is to capture Fan Jiuyi’s youthful beauty as soon as possible.

After the last collaboration in shooting the MV for the song "He Must Love You Very Much", Fan Jiuyi already had experience working with director Zhang Yibai. When the photographer and lighting technician adjusted the shooting angle and the angle of the reflector, she immediately showed an invincible youthful smile.

"Fan Jiuyi..."

"Charming, yes, you need to show me a charming look on your face."

"Well, let's put it this way. Suppose you like Jiang Feng very much and want to be his girlfriend, how do you think you should smile in front of him?"

"Yes, that's right, this slightly shy expression of yours is what I want!"

Seeing that his inspiring storytelling had worked, Zhang Yibai snapped his fingers at the staff of Guiyou Shopping Mall. The staff understood and immediately started the escalator.

"Action!"

Blue jeans, black high boots, a pure white sweater, and a sky blue windbreaker...

Dressed like this, with her youthful face, Fan Jiuyi looks both beautiful and classy.

Holding a bottle of Wahaha purified water in her hand, she stood on the escalator, looking around downwards.

Suddenly, she frowned as if she saw something.

Then, her face turned red with embarrassment.

"OK, passed, very good!"

When it comes to actual shooting, commercials are simpler than MVs because commercials only need to make the characters look good and get the desired shot right. As for the story in the commercials, it relies on the imagination of the audience in front of the TV, rather than the long-winded performance through dialogue like in TV dramas.

After finishing the shot of Fan Jiuyi on the escalator, Zhang Yibai immediately turned to look at Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng, who was wearing white sneakers, black jeans, a white T-shirt and a black leather jacket, picked up a guitar from the ground, held it in his arms, and nodded to director Zhang Yibai.

"Director, I'm ready."

As soon as Jiang Feng finished speaking, Zhang Yibai, who was holding the clapperboard in his hand, raised it up.

"Action!"

"In the happy kingdom of love
you are my only one
The only thing I love is you

... "

No music, only singing!
Jiang Feng, who has already achieved a certain level of accomplishment in singing, started singing a cappella, and when he sang to this point, the sound of drums began to sound behind him.

"Boom"

.........

Wang Fei is tall, with a barefoot height of 1 meters. With the high heels on her feet, she stands out in the crowd.

And it was precisely because of this height that she could clearly see Jiang Feng singing in the middle of the advertising shooting scene.

Hehe..., this guy is handsome again!

Not only that, but the sound of a cappella songs also sounded much better, with less of the raspy voice he had when he first started singing and more of the resonance in his chest.

Even Jiang Feng's current pronunciation and voice characteristics are a bit like her ex-husband Dou Wei, unique and magnetic. He is good at using mixed voice and open throat singing, and can easily switch between high and low notes.

Just as he was thinking, Wang Fei suddenly felt the phone in his pocket vibrate. He took it out and saw that it was a text message from his agent Qiu Likuan.

[A Fei, I advise you to think carefully about your relationship with Jiang Feng, because although this kid is young, he is a complete gambler.

I asked a friend to check, Jiang Feng made about HK$1.2 million from the filming of the movie "Moon", the release of his first two music albums, and the signing of Universal Music. Now all of it has been invested in the stock market, leaving no savings. 】
