Chapter 557 You will be attacked by a crowd

"Be a good boy, please don't make such messy attempts next time. If something goes wrong, Zhou Jianhui will peel my skin off, let alone those extreme fans of yours."

Qian Jiang came over after hearing the news and wiped his sweat. He even spoke in a dialect he had not spoken for more than twenty years. It was obvious that he was really frightened.

After sterilizing and bandaging to avoid infection, Zhou Yi stood up from the chair and jumped up twice. He felt good and grinned: "I didn't realize that your ancestors are from Henan, old money."

Although he jumped quickly, Zhou Yi's right leg was still slightly bruised.

Although it wasn't serious, it wasn't the kind of thing where the doctor would be late and it would heal automatically. The blood strips of scratches that were pulled out when the car fell over were quite impressive.

Qian Jiang, who was sweating profusely, rolled his eyes angrily: "My mother used to live in Henan."

In order to avoid people gossiping, Qian Jiang immediately asked Warner staff to tell the crew not to spread the news as soon as he learned the news. That is to say, nothing happened. Otherwise, he didn't dare to imagine how the outside media public opinion would explode.

Although now after arriving at the scene, he realized that he might have made a fuss out of a molehill.

All the crew members were enjoying themselves, and after a brief period of panic, everything returned to calm. Jiang Wen, Tang Yan, and Yang Mi, who were almost hit, even had the intention to tease and imitate Zhou Yi's confident demeanor and actions before driving, but it was obvious that they didn't take it to heart.

"I can't tell."

"If you can tell, there's a ghost."

After the heart that had been hanging in his throat was put back into his stomach, Qian Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Be more careful in the future. Other national symphony orchestras have free time, and you are lying in the hospital again." Gone.”

According to Zhou Yi's request, he specifically contacted the National Symphony Orchestra for the arrangement of the song "In a Flick of a Finger". After a long period of back and forth and comparing schedules, the two parties reached an agreement and freed up the schedule to specially participate. into this song.

To a certain extent, it must be that Zhou Yi's face and influence are large enough.

After all, the National Symphony Orchestra of this era has not yet had any conflicts. It has a full schedule and strong strength. It is different from the group after the 10s.

"Also, people from Huayi and Taihe Media have contacted me and want to invite you to write the theme song for "A World Without Thieves"?"

As the two largest investors in "A World Without Thieves", it was quite unexpected that they would come to ask Qian Jiang for the theme song.

"A World Without Thieves" has a total investment of 30 million yuan, and it is not a big-scale production like Hero, so why ask Zhou Yi to sing the theme song?

Got a brain twitch?

Apart from anything else, according to current international practice, Zhou Yi, who took off in film scoring with "Pirates of the Caribbean", can afford the $2 million soundtrack fee for "A World Without Thieves"?

Even if you give a discount for the sake of being a Chinese and having the heroine resource exchange, like Li Lianlian starring in "Hero", the price must be at least more than 1.2 million US dollars, which is more than 9.8 million yuan in conversion, buddy.

But in the end, when Qian Jiang saw the first quote, he felt as if he had seen a ghost and couldn't believe it.

Because the other party really quoted this price.

One third of the total investment?

What's going on?

"Ah, Feng Xiaogang did talk to me before, but I didn't respond. What did they say?"

Zhou Yi, who felt no discomfort after moving for a while, took the towel and wiped his hands. The medical staff of the crew consciously exited the dressing room, leaving the space for the two of them.

"Taihe and Huayi each contributed US$600,000, for a total of US$1.2 million."

Qian Jiang shook his head: "Although I know that this price is considered to be an extraordinary level of sincerity and treatment in China, in fact, it still does not match your worth in the field of film scoring."

It would be fine to say that he has never proven himself in the field of music scores before, but Zhou Yi has proven himself.

Although the plot of "Heroes" has received mixed reviews, it is undeniable that "The Elephant King" indeed made great efforts in the early promotion, which directly increased the early box office data and exceeded expectations;

The following "Pirates of the Caribbean" was even more heavyweight and a real global hit. The theme song "He's a Pirate" directly resounded around the world and became Zhouyi's global hit in the field of film soundtracks.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" is also a work that truly elevated Zhou Yi's status in the field of film and television soundtracks. Disney's top management began to change, and several people who strongly advocated inviting Zhou Yi to write the theme song completely fought for the top position——

Disney executive Robert Iger, who has publicly expressed his gratitude to Zhou Yi and is optimistic about Zhou Yi, has gone one step further with the impressive performance of "Pirates of the Caribbean" and is expected to become the helmsman of the behemoth Walt Disney.

That is to say, Zhou Yi is not currently making a full set of movie soundtracks and only writes theme songs (promotion songs). Otherwise, no one would have any objection to making a full set like Hans Zimmer and receiving US$4 million plus royalties.

"What do you mean?"

Zhou Yi rubbed his chin, thought for a moment and then asked.

Qian Jiang raised a finger and the lion said loudly: "My psychological price is 1.5 million US dollars, plus royalties. Although the subsequent royalties in the domestic film and television drama field are almost non-existent, at least it is an attitude, that is I don't know if they will agree.

"Considering that the other party is really sincere in making friends with you and the reality of the domestic environment, you can lower it by 100,000 as appropriate. I won't recommend it any lower, because it will damage your image as a celebrity. Having Fan Bingbin as the heroine is not enough to make you You lower yourself to help.”

Why did Cheng Long never ask Zhou Yi to write songs for "New Police Story"? It's because he has been in Hollywood and knows very well Zhou Yi's current status as a composer.

If he really wanted to ask for the 1.4 million US dollars plus royalties and royalties, he would definitely give it to him, but this would be a waste of Zhou Yi's love for him in the past, and it wasn't worth it. At this discounted friendship price, he would rather invite Zhou Yi to make a cameo at the end of the film, which would bring greater benefits to the movie.

After all, you only have one chance.

As for the fact that the total investment of "A World Without Thieves" is 30 million yuan, that has nothing to do with Qianjiang.

"Small investment" must have the awareness of "small investment". It doesn't mean that you can ask Zhou Yi to help you just because you are having a hard time. You Huayi Taihe has no relationship with Zhou Yi, so I am already very considerate of you if I can give you a discount. You must know that Fan Xiaopang's heroine is essentially a favor exchanged for the unlucky Song Ke.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you, I'll rest assured."

Zhou Yi nodded, and Qian Jiang breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that Zhou Yi's brain would get heated up and he would be confused by Feng Xiaogang's sugar-coated bullets. Now it seems that his mind is quite clear.

After chatting about some work details, Zhou Yi opened the dressing room door and walked out. Outside, Jiang Wen, who couldn't hold back his itchy hands, was still looking at the film materials. The director Ning Hao stood motionless beside him like a student——

Very well-behaved.

"Jiang, you want to seize power again, right?"

"Get out of here, I'm here to see what you took a picture of."

Jiang Wen, who had a calm face, put down his "work" without changing his expression and glanced at his legs: "What? The legs are connected?"

"Go aside."

Zhou Yi raised his feet and placed them on the table beside him: "Whenever I had problems with my legs, I always said it was my agent who made a fuss."

Jiang Wen chuckled lightly, waved his hand and stood up from the director's position, walking up to him. There was something in his words: "You kid, are you making a fuss out of a molehill? I don't know yet?"

Out of curiosity to ask him to prepare these things, Zhou Yi also showed him the album plan.

Out of sensitivity, he was immediately interested in the song title "In a Flick of a Finger", but immediately became suspicious after reading the lyrics.

Although Zhou Yi tried every means to deny that he was inspired by Su Wu Muyang, who was he? It’s all about thousand-year-old foxes playing nonsense. Your Su Wu Shepherd has blocked the moonlight for ten years, right?

Su Wu Muyang stayed there for 19 years before returning!

Combined with the other songs on side A of the album, he almost instantly guessed who the child was remembering.

Unless Zhou Yi said that he was illiterate and couldn't tell time.

"What do you know? Why don't I know anything?" Zhou Yi asked with a smirk.

"You will be attacked by groups. The public opinion environment in recent years has not been very good."

Jiang Wen, who raised his buttocks and sat on the table, waved his hand and looked at the half-grown child in front of him with a bit of teasing in his eyes.

For him, who is 40 years old this year, the 22-year-old Zhou Yi is really just a half-grown child.

"Ring ring ring!"

The two were looking at each other, and the conversation was interrupted by the rapid ringing of the phone.

"If they have the ability, they can spray me until I quit the entertainment industry. I don't care. If they don't have the ability, they can only watch."

Zhou Yi shrugged noncommittally, glanced down at the caller ID, pressed the answer button and turned around to leave——

"Hello? Yanzi? What do you want from me?"

Zhou Yi walked out of the director's studio with one hand in his pocket. While bathing in the sunshine, his shadow became more and more slender.

Jiang Wen narrowed his eyes slightly as he watched him leave. After a while, he turned to look at the camera with a smile and shook his head.

……………………

"What? More money?"

Huayi, Chairman's Office.

The reporters from the two kings and Taihe Media frowned after hearing Warner's reply.

"The maximum is 1.4 million US dollars, 1.5 million is impossible."

After a while, Taihe’s senior management gave their bottom line, which directly aroused Hua Yi’s objection——

"Are you kidding? 1.4 million US dollars is converted into more than 11 million yuan in RMB. Zhang Yimou's "Hero" requires such a large investment of 7.2 million yuan, so killing a pig? One of his Chinese songs costs 3% of the total movie budget. One percent?”

"That's because the man surnamed Han went to talk to Zhou Yi personally, and he still owes Zhou Yi a favor for this. Why don't you also look for him? Anyway, he is also one of the producers in name."

Taihe's senior management choked on his words and the two kings of Huayi were silent.

"For Zhou Yi, this more than 10 million is really just a song. No, it's not even half of a song by Zhou Yi. Fan Bingbin's song earned more than 2,300 from the existing ring tones alone. Wan, do you have a temper?"

The two kings: "..."

"Song Ke went in. He still has some money in the company, so he should apologize. Thank you Song Ke..."
