John Days is a pure businessman.

Yes, Li Qian knew in his previous life that the well-dressed Hollywood is certainly centered on artists, but in fact, the people who really control the countless movies are often not film people, but people like John Dyth. Such a complete businessman.

If I have to explain it, I can only say that he is a businessman who understands movies well.

The characteristic of a businessman is: one yard is equal to one yard.

Of course, to a certain extent, this is also because the American film industry has experienced nearly a hundred years of accumulation, and relatively complete rules and regulations have been formed in all aspects. From the point of view of the Chinese, talking to the Americans...it is too cumbersome and too detailed.

The crew of "Titanic" will provide comprehensive support for Li Qian and Liao Liao's trip to the United States. This is a major premise agreed in advance, but how to support and to what extent is not enough for both parties to know Understand.

Therefore, the other party then sent a professional negotiating group from the United States, including a lawyer, a negotiating expert, and up to three people including music professionals and 20th Century Fox Group to deal with logistical affairs. The final negotiation result of the negotiating team including the staff of Li Qian, which hotel should they stay in after arriving in Los Angeles, and what kind of living standards should they enjoy during their stay? There should be several assistants or escorts within their responsibility. , how each person is treated, even what kind of vehicle should be equipped when traveling, or how much the transportation fee is allocated each week, they have all been negotiated in detail and recorded in the contract. This kind of detailed and almost cumbersome To this extent, the negotiating team headed by Qi Jie at Minghu Culture was a little confused at first, and then, unknowingly, they became intimidated.

In her words afterwards, "It's really not a big international company, it's really straight-forward... I've learned a lot!"

A few days later, before the negotiation was over, Xie Mingyuan accompanied his father and a pair of children to **** him and returned to China in a low-key manner.

In the first month, when the domestic media, music scene, and fans were immersed in the shock of the album "Once You" and the record-breaking sales data of this album, Li Qian and Liao Liao and Xie Mingyuan took the same flight, set sail from Shuntianfu, and arrived in Los Angeles, a city in the western United States after more than ten hours of flight.

Because it was only a short-term cooperation, the other party arranged for Li Qian and his party to have two rooms in a hotel with a cooperative relationship, a suite, Li Qian and Liao Liao, and a business room, Xie Mingyuan stayed.

Xie Mingyuan had traveled to the United States for a few months before, and had been to Los Angeles. This time, he was half the owner himself, and spent two days taking Li Qian and Liao Liao around, looking around, and then , they are about to start working on this album.

Of course, do the soundtrack first.

The release date of Titanic has been set for May 14, so theoretically, by mid-April at the latest, the release cut of the film must be completely completed, and before that, the soundtrack, and the entire film Of course, the soundtrack of the movie can only be advanced and cannot be left behind, because for this movie, the special effects are a big deal, and the completion of the special effects means that the big job of the movie is over... So, leave it to Li Qian and the others There are only thirty-five to forty days left for this small team to make the soundtrack.

But fortunately, it's not difficult.

If "my-heart-ill-go-on" is established as the theme song, then the main theme of the soundtrack of the whole movie already exists. If it is replaced by a movie, it already has a script, and if it is replaced by a novel, it has already been With the outline, and if he replaced it with a song, he also had the chorus part in the studio provided by Rolling Stone Records, mainly Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan, and it took less than four days to finalize it. A few more scene soundtrack ideas!

Yes, a milestone-level movie like "Titanic" with good reputation and box office, its script, its shots, its special effects, its soundtrack, its editing, and even its relative It is said that the performance of actors who are easy to pick on is an absolute classic model for filmmakers and musicians. Since the release of this film, it is undeniable that it is a must-see and must-see for almost all filmmakers in the whole world. A film that must be studied and studied.

Li Qian was a musician in his previous life, and later worked as a filmmaker for about ten years. Well, this is a relatively bragging statement. In fact, he is a TV personality "Titanic", or simply James Cameron, Spear He has watched and studied almost every movie of famous directors such as Berger over and over again. Therefore, for the soundtrack of this movie, it is impossible for him to remember every note from beginning to end. But each soundtrack has a general impression, but it is absolutely fine.

Furthermore, in fact, these four days, for Li Qian and Xie Mingyuan, were mainly about watching the rough cut 210-minute version of the movie, and a process in which Li Qian came up with his own ideas to convince Xie Mingyuan.

After the idea was settled, they quickly composed two soundtracks. With the cooperation of Rolling Stone Records, they quickly recorded a demo to send to John Dyce. Then, finally, a week after arriving in Los Angeles, Li Qian Finally got to meet James Cameron.

In terms of European and American races, he is not too tall, and he is a little fat, but his fat, at first glance, people will feel that he has strong and piercing eyes, stubborn beard stubble, and speaking. The time is full of passion and the sound is like a bell.

There is no doubt that he highly appreciates Li Qian's soundtrack ideas and the demos he has produced so far, and is extremely satisfied with the progress of Li Qian's work.

Of course, don't look at everyone talking happily, but after chatting for a while, he quickly left and left. If he is Chinese, in this case, he would like to have a meal and a glass of wine together to talk about friendship, but James Cameron seems to be very busy, and Li Qian is just here to be a passer-by, and he has no intention of getting to know each other deeply, so... in a hurry, shake hands, everyone sits and chats, and then everyone Keep working, keep busy.

At this time in China, on the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar, the dragon heads up, and on the ninth day of the third month of the Western calendar, on Tuesday, the annual Golden Melody Awards ceremony will be held again as scheduled.

In advance, Minghu Culture received an invitation, of course, but the people who finally went to the scene could only be led by Qi Jie and Zou Wenhuai, including Cao Zhan, Wang Huaiyu, He Runqing and Rose Power, all dressed up to attend.

As for Zhou Ai, after Minghu Culture and Sony Records reached a tacit cooperation agreement to make money, she was still in the contract period and He Wei was still in the competition agreement period, and he appeared in the queue of Minghu Culture. Bian He, the first-class people, can almost turn a blind eye. After all, even if Zhou Ai's concert tour only has ten or eight performances, it is a lot of money.

"Once You" is an album that was released on February 10 this year. According to the Golden Melody Awards, only works that were publicly released within the past year from January 1 to December 31 were selected. This album is Those who are not listed can only participate in the selection of the next year, but even so, Minghu Culture still swept a number of heavyweight awards in one fell swoop.

The best album of the year, "super-star".

Combination of the Year, Rose Power.

Best Female Singer of the Year, Zhou Ai.

Best Rock Album of the Year, "The False Monk".

The best rock band of the year, the four beauties.

In addition, six of the top ten golden songs of the year also fall directly under the name of Minghu Culture.

"super-star", rose power, the first of the year.

"Women's Flower", Liao Liao, No. 2 of the year.

"Meeting Ninety-eight", Liao Liao, Zhou Cong, the third of the year.

"don't-break-my-heart", the four beauties, the fifth of the year.

"The Price of Love", He Runqing, No. 8 of the year.

"Nothing", the four beauties, the ninth of the year.

In addition, there is "Witch's Tears", which will definitely be included in the Sony Records title, the fourth year.

In the past year, Xinda Records has won the best newcomer Zheng Guofeng of the year. Of course, he is smiling. Xinfu Zhao once again won the honor of the best male singer of the year, showing that he is the unparalleled leading male singer in the domestic music scene today. The status of Sony Records, which has been unlucky since the Spring Festival Gala program was submitted for review, also gave some comfort.

Of course, everyone knows that unless there is such a dense volume and there can be another phenomenal album within this year, next year's Golden Melody Awards will definitely be dominated by the four beauties. Thinking about it, I feel a little helpless. The new year's market has just begun, and the good things that everyone has held in their hands have not yet been smashed out. The commanding heights of the entire market have already been held in their hands in advance!

However, everyone knows that even as powerful as Sony Records, it is clear that they have no power to change this.

Because the album "Once You" is really popular!

It sold for five days in the first week, and it swept an astonishing 147,269 copies in the Dongguan Bookstore. In the second week, it won 114,892 copies. In the third week, except for Minghu Culture, almost the vast majority of the entire domestic music scene Everyone expects this album to drop below six figures at least, right? However, no! In the third week, this album is still full of energy and won an astonishing sales of 103,548 copies in a single week!

For three consecutive weeks, this album broke 100,000 copies in a single week for three consecutive weeks!

In the fourth week, after this album experienced such a violent explosion, the momentum of sales has decreased slightly, but it still won 89,551 copies of sales. This is the only sales volume in China, which is already the only top-level A+ celebrity in China. Liao Liao Twice the peak weekly sales! You can imagine how much impact it will bring to the music world, especially the internal practitioners of the music world!

Moreover, long before the official release of the sales data for the fourth week, just last Thursday, March 4th, Qi Jie held a press conference on behalf of Minghu Culture, officially announcing that the album "Once You" was due to expire. Global shipments at 3:00 pm on March 2, have exceeded 13 million!

The so-called shipments only mean that they are sold to and wholesaled from Minghu Culture Company to distributors. It does not mean that all albums have been sold. There will definitely be many sales stores that have different products. There are few stocks, but considering that there are still media reports that "Once You" is in short supply and even sold out all over the country, in fact, everyone thinks that for the album "Once You" In other words, 13 million copies have been shipped, which means that the actual sales of this album have basically reached 10 million copies.

This result is simply disappointing.

Before this album came out, Liao Liao was the only A+ singer recognized in China. Her nearly four or five albums have sold more than 10 million copies. Because the album was a big hit, it only took one step, and it also entered the A-level. They all belong to the one that has sold over 10 million copies. Then, either other albums are steadily moving towards 10 million copies, or the future is The industry is unanimously optimistic.

In addition, Zhao Xinfu, Zhou Hao, Huang Yuqing and others are all A- grades. They are all very powerful, but they have never had a single album that broke the sales record of 10 million copies. Wu Su, because of the ups and downs of album sales, has dropped to A-, but last year, after the collision with Rose Power, they were directly kicked off the cloud and dropped to B-level.

However, now, just as the appearance of "The Sound of the Wave", which sold millions of copies by Liao Liao, suddenly broke the inherent level of the entire domestic music scene, "Once You" has sold to such an extent that people's hearts The default judging criteria, suddenly lost the balance, sold 10 million copies worldwide in less than a month, the four beauties in China with at least 7 million copies, and the four beauties in Dongguan Bookstore that broke 100,000 copies in a single week for three consecutive weeks Band, how can you not be lower than Liao Liao?

If Liao Liao is a+, what are the four beauties? a?

Then, if the four beauties are re-evaluated as A+, Liao Liao will definitely be reduced to A!

In this regard, the industry is still a little confused, and everyone just knows in their hearts that the coffee position of the four beauties is one level higher than that of Liao Liao alone!

Of course, for other record companies in China, although the four beauties are very powerful, as long as no one deliberately jumps out to stimulate them, it is estimated that they will not even have one album a year. Therefore, the commanding heights of the market are occupied by others. It is also occupied. In the next year, although the albums of the four beauties will dominate the market for a long time, but after all, when they are exhausted, they cannot be sold all the time, and Liao Liao and He Runqing have There is no new album planned or it will not be released until the end of the year. The only one who can stand up for Minghu Culture and dominate the market is the power of roses, and there is still a lot of market space left for everyone.

In particular, it is said that Minghu Culture will push a few newcomers this year. Minghu Culture is bold enough, but of course they have boldness, but it is very dangerous for so many record companies and singers in the industry who want to compete with Minghu Culture. , but also a great opportunity not to be missed!

In April, it is said that the Lake Culture Association will launch a female singer and a female singer! Why is it a female singer again! It's called Zhuang Meiyue, and many companies in the industry have collected relevant information about her. Many people analyzed that the girl's voice and number of ways are difficult to become a popular type in the market. Therefore, in previous years, it was not too popular. Month, suddenly became the time for major companies to focus on launching new albums!

And the most important among them... Sony Records has locked in April for the little diva Li Xinru!

Everyone can smell the smell of gunpowder that has already permeated!

In June, it was said that there was another newcomer at Minghu Culture. Of course, this time it was finally a male singer! And this time, the little king of Sony Records, Huang Yuqing, is said to have set the release date of the new album at the end of June and the beginning of July. Obviously, Sony Records still attaches great importance to this male singer who was launched by Li Qian. He didn't even dare to play a big card like Huang Yuqing directly, but gave a relatively vague date, which should have reserved a certain reaction time for himself~www.wuxiaspot.com~ However, it is conceivable , once the new male singer from Minghu Culture and his albums are not that good enough, even if they are just average, with Huang Yuqing's current status and appeal, this "late June and early July" will soon be Locked to "end of June"! And only if the other party shows enough level, will Huang Yuqing be pressed back to July.

Of course, according to the news from inside Sony Records, they seem to be pushing for a newcomer this year, but the specific news is unknown to the outside world. At present, there are only some vague gossip... It is said to be a Japanese Sony. Signed idol artist.

…………

The Golden Melody Award is a Vanity Fair.

Those who come have to laugh when they get the honor, but they still have to laugh when they don't get the honor.

Regardless of whether or not you can get the honor you want, every time you see someone on the podium, everyone can't help thinking about their own calculations. But the battlefield is full of gunpowder!

The absence of Li Qian and Liao Liao, of course, led to a lot of speculation. Afterwards, the media also extended various explanations. Some said they went out for their honeymoon, some said they went to celebrate, and some said they were actively To prepare a new album for Liao Liao, ready to release it, smashing Sony records... In short, there are various opinions.

However, no one thought that Li Qian and Liao Liao at this time, while steadily advancing the soundtrack of "Titanic", have really started to prepare for Liao Liao's new album.

Only this time, it will no longer be a pure Chinese album, but a global album.
