Chapter 87 Zombie Version MV
Finally able to defeat EHS head-on and beat the popular Jianlang to get one place. The entire Fat Cat Studio has been in a sweet atmosphere in recent days. Xia Haoyang is sitting in the office watching the movie version of "Cry Cry" on the audio source website. The number of downloads is quite good, exceeding 100 million in one week. According to the download price of 12 yuan, this is 1200 million Chinese national currency.
The sales of this album and the recent outstanding performance in "New Song Arena" are also driving the continued purchase of the first album "Lie". In fact, what the entire Fat Cat Studio does not know is that the total number of downloads of "Lie" exceeds 1100 1070 times, which has exceeded the total sales of SHE's "Good Days" album of 2 million. However, Xia Haoyang and others no longer care about the number of EHS album downloads. All they can remember is that 500 million copies were brought to everyone in two days. Shocking.
There wasn't much going on in the office all morning. Xia Haoyang stretched and then walked out of the office, intending to go downstairs to have a meal. Accountant Sister Chen passed by and also went to have a meal downstairs. Xia Haoyang saw Sister Chen holding some colorful cardboard in her hand, and asked casually: "Sister Chen, these are cardboard you are holding, what are you using them for?"
"Oh, let's not talk about it. What kind of Halloween activities are held in the kindergarten? What kind of masks do you need to make for children to put on makeup? What kind of pumpkin lanterns should be used to decorate their clothes? My children can make their own clothes and pumpkin lanterns. I also let them Why does he come to kindergarten? This is obviously to embarrass the parents." Sister Chen complained that the kindergarten seemed to be a quality education activity for children, but it was actually pure nonsense.
"Haha, today's kindergartens are interesting, but aren't they allowed to celebrate foreign festivals these years? Can they still prepare for Halloween activities?" Xia Haoyang said casually.
"Well, my family is enrolling their children in a joint Chinese and Western kindergarten, so they can engage in these activities." Accountant Sister Chen was a little embarrassed.
If it is a joint venture between China and the West, wouldn’t it be an aristocratic kindergarten? We can't afford to be hurt. Chinese parents have to send their children to the best schools to receive the best education despite all the hardships. This feeling is something that Xia Haoyang, who is single, cannot understand for the time being.
Without saying much, Xia Haoyang took the elevator down and thought about it in the elevator: Halloween, isn't it the Ghost Festival? Tara's "Lovey Dovey" MV also has a zombie version in the original time and space, how about making one for fun too? It just goes well with the ghost dance, um, perfect.
In addition to a plot version of "Lovey Dovey" in the original time and space, which is the 33-minute musical movie version starring Tony Leung, there is also a 6-minute short plot zombie version. To put it simply, it is dancing in a disco, and then everyone becomes There are zombies, and the original version also invited Gangnam beauty Lim Soo-hyang to guest star. Lim Soo-hyang is not only beautiful, she is also a well-known highly educated actress in South Korea in the original time and space, and she has only made a guest appearance in this MV so far. This can also prove that Tara was in the world of South Korea before the troll incident. status, almost every MV has well-known people from the entertainment industry to participate or guest appearance, but unfortunately the troll incident caused Tara to collapse.
Thinking of this, Xia Haoyang decided to film this version and also invited a popular actress to make a guest appearance. You can have this idea, who is the most popular this year? Of course it’s Na Ran, who plays Daji in “New Gods”.
Daji, played by Naran, is a well-known female character in Chinese history, so there is a lot of pressure on her. I remember when the stills were first released, the whole Internet was furious with Naran, saying that she was not charming enough or unique. , anyway, I just don’t like it.
When the movie came out, everyone sat in the cinema and watched it, and found that Naran's image fit the plot of the movie. The original Daji was the culprit who charmed King Zhou, which is the so-called beauties, but the Daji in the new movie was changed to Hakimi, who defeated King Zhou, is the business partner of the ambitious King Zhou, so the image played by Naran is very suitable, so that her scolding gradually became less, and in Xia Haoyang's eyes, Naran's The performance is very spiritual.
Not only was his acting excellent, but one thing also impressed Xia Haoyang. "New Gods" was actually filmed 6 years ago, when Naran was 20 years old. As a result, the film took six years from filming to post-production to its current release. , Naran is now 26 years old. After others finish filming "Feng Shen", they can take on other projects and appear in other shows. Because they are famous actors, not spoiling the story and participating in "Feng Shen" will not affect their acceptance of new jobs.
But Naran is a newcomer, or she was a newcomer 6 years ago. In order to maintain the mystery of this role, she cannot reveal any information about her acceptance of the film. How can a newcomer without qualifications be accepted as a new actor? What about his works? But Naran waited quietly for six years! For a young actor to endure loneliness and wait for several years, I have to say that this alone is worth applauding and cheering for her. This is also the reason why Xia Haoyang wanted Naran to guest star in the MV.
After lunch, Xia Haoyang came to the recording studio to discuss with Lao Xie and Brother Hong about filming the new MV for "Lovey Dovey".
"Damn it, Fatty, you are so ruthless in cutting leeks. The plot version of the movie has only been sold for less than ten days, and there is a new version of the same song. Aren't you afraid of scolding?" Lao Xie felt that Xia Haoyang was cutting leeks.
"Then, free, as a fan benefit?" Xia Haoyang replied casually.
"That's definitely not possible. If it's free, it will affect the sales of the feature version of the current movie. In this way, fans will not spend any money and just wait for your free version. This kind of thing cannot be done." Brother Hong objected.
"So, I have a new idea now. If you charge a fee, you say I am cutting leeks. If you don't charge a fee, you say it will affect the sales of other albums. What should I do?" Xia Haoyang is helpless. I am not cutting leeks, I just want everyone to feel it. The charm of the zombie version.
"Why don't you change your idea to a different song? Change it to a different song, why does it have to be "Lovey Dovey"?" Lao Xie suggested that we work on other songs, and just sit back and collect the money now, and don't make trouble.
"It's different, Lao Xie. This version just matches the ghost step dance, so it suits this song. Moreover, the ghost step dance has already appeared in "New Song Arena". You can't put this dance on other songs." Xia Haoyang Of course, others cannot understand your persistence.
"How long is your zombie version, and has a rich plot?" Brother Hong also found it a bit difficult to adapt to Fatty's occasional inspiration.
"About six minutes at most, it's just an ordinary music MV." Xia Haoyang said disapprovingly.
Lao Xie and Brother Hong both sighed involuntarily, okay, it's just a normal music MV, so that's okay.
"But I would like to invite Naran to make a guest appearance." Xia Haoyang put forward his own opinion.
"No, for a 5-6 minute MV, you still want to invite celebrities to guest star? Naran plays Daji, right? The most popular actor Long Yi came to guest star this year, and now you want the most popular actress to guest star, Fatty, you are really inflated." Lao Xie doesn't understand why Fatty always insists on inviting actors to guest star in song MVs.
"Fat man, Long Yi didn't spend any money, but that doesn't mean you don't have to spend money to invite anyone, especially one that is very popular. The production of MV itself is not suitable for stars who are too high-net worth, unless the actors of the same company help each other." Zhou Yuanhong was also speechless towards the fat man.
"How about I make a guest appearance and save money." Lao Xie felt that it would be more reliable for him to be in the role.
"You can't do it. This role is most suitable for a woman. How about we give it a try. Does Naran have a studio? Let's ask. If the price is right, we can use it." Fatty insisted on his opinion.
Seeing that the fat man persisted, the two of them could only shake their heads helplessly. Let the fat man decide on such a small matter.
I asked Xiao Liu at the front desk to find out that Naran did not have a studio yet and only had her own personal official Weibo, so she asked Xiao Liu to send a private message on Weibo to contact the other party; and to find the good director of "New Gods". There should be Naran’s contact information.
After being contacted by Xiao Liu at the front desk, Naran, although she has become very popular this year, has not had any work arrangements recently. Then Xiao Liu at the front desk negotiated and communicated with Naran, and finally negotiated a guest appearance in the MV at a very low price. . Xia Haoyang has lamented more than once that this front desk Xiao Liu is a talent. Where did the fat man from before find such a useful talent. It's cheap if you have the ability. With the salary of the front desk, you can work as the front desk, secretary to the general manager, warehouse manager, business negotiation manager, human resources director, as well as an agent assistant and a friendly guest actor. Now that you’ve accomplished this, what else do you want? Increase wages! Wages must be increased!
