You Made Me a Superstar

  Chapter 46 I call myself!

   "It's the artistic creation form that you can't understand this movie at all!"

   "There was once a movie in Hong Kong and Taiwan called "Journey to the West". After it was released, the box office was bleak, but now...it is an insurmountable classic!"

   "You don't understand this era, but it doesn't mean the next era, those young people with knowledge and artistic skills don't understand!"

   "Tianji" is the movie I put the most energy into. I would rather think that it is an artistic product ahead of its time. You can't understand the essence, and I will never allow it, let alone admit it is a bad movie!"

   "I put my words here!"

   "Five years! Give me five years!"

   "Five years from now, everyone will know what I mean by standing here today and saying these words!"

   "Berlin? Of course I'm going to Berlin with this movie, not only will I go to Berlin, but I'll show the world what kind of movie this is!"

   "See you in Berlin in March!"

  “…”

  “…”

   Nine days before the Spring Festival Gala, Chen Kai was blocked by reporters at the door of his house.

   Facing the camera, Chen Kai was like a fighter who was provoked and furious, and even threatened to deal with these unscrupulous media well in the future, so that they would know what to say and what not to say nonsense!

   After letting go of his harsh words, he ignored the reporter's questioning and rushed into the villa angrily.

   In the second half of 2005, the Chinese film industry seemed to be downcast. Not only was it beaten by Hollywood blockbusters, but there were also more than ten domestic bad films in a row!

  The confidence of fans in domestic films plummeted, and the words "domestic blockbuster" were ridiculed by netizens as a derogatory joke.

  The first one is "Tianji", a 300 million investment movie that was once given high hopes!

  300 million investment, what concept?

  The first big investment movie made in China, it is not inferior to any Hollywood movie!

   "This is a counterattack of a domestic film!"

   "Sound the attack horn for domestic blockbusters!"

   From June 2005 to its release in November, such publicity was almost overwhelming.

   Subway entrances, online forums, major variety shows, elevator advertisements in major theaters, etc. are almost all promotional posters for "Tianji".

   This kind of publicity has hoisted the appetite of movie fans to the limit. When the pre-sale tickets were opened, the pre-sale amount reached an unprecedented astonishing figure!

  Everyone wants to see this movie to compete with Hollywood. Even if it doesn't work, it can at least shine a light on the declining domestic blockbusters, right?

The premiere day of    was definitely the most beautiful day for Chen Kai.

However!

Three days after its release, the word-of-mouth of "Tianji" was like an avalanche, showing cracks. Countless well-known media and netizens even sprayed the film from December to January this year, and it became more and more fierce, and even more fierce. Many video netizens on the Internet also cut out a version called "Blood Case Caused by a Pimple".

In this environment, the big director Chen Kai's "Heavenly Pole" was inevitably pulled into the hot search by the media, and all kinds of negative news were blown up. Several classic movies such as "Black Earth" have been questioned whether they were made by Chen Kai himself!

   There are also some good media who have reasoned and reasoned deeply about these movie scripts, and analyzed from all angles that Chen Kai, who left the assistant director and screenwriter Cao Anmin, is a second-rate director.

  Myths fell, demoted to civilians, the truth was revealed, man-made gods...

   This is a plot that many people like to watch.

   "I have to give them some color to see!"

   "Help me contact Berlin officials!"

   "We'll send the samples over!"

"Grass!"

  “…”

   Villa.

  Chen Kai is screaming wildly!

   The media could not hear Chen Kai's roar in the villa, let alone understand Chen Kai's anger!

   They will only expand Chen Kai's lofty words and ambitions on various pages, and ruthlessly publicize Chen Kai's lofty words and ambitions...

   At the same time, Han Shaoping, the hapless boss of Star Color Company, was also chased and blocked by the media. Han Shaoping, who was besieged by reporters, was so angry that he announced on the spot that "Star Color Company is officially bankrupt!".

   "Xingcai Company has nothing to do with our company!"

   "The contract of the H56 combination has been transferred to Huaxing!"

   "Please stop asking!"

   "I don't know if the group will disband or not. From now on, H56 has nothing to do with me, and I won't be in the entertainment industry!"

  “…”

  Han Shaoping was so angry that he almost hit the reporter at the reporter who talked a lot!

  ……………………

   "Chen Kai is also going to take the movie to the exhibition!"

   "It seems to be a special foreign edition of "Tianji"..."

   "Although the reputation of "Tianji" in China is not very good, but abroad, especially in places where art is dominated by Berlin, maybe it will really win awards..."

   "Chen Kai is eager to prove himself, the editing of the foreign version will definitely cater to the niche audience abroad..."

   "At the same time, there are strong rivals like "Hero". This time, we don't know if there are enough shortlisted places..."

  “…”

   An Xiao's office.

   Analyst Xu Rui took out the analysis report and handed it to An Xiao with solemn eyes.

   The data of "Tianji" is really bad in all aspects.

   However, he is the work of Chen Kai.

  Chen Kai's "Overlord" almost swept Cannes that year, and for a while became a mythical figure of the entire five generations of directors in China.

  's international influence has reached one of the most powerful Chinese directors...

   The name of a person, the shadow of a tree.

  Xu Rui always has a sense of unease. With Chen Kai's influence in Europe, there is a high probability that "Tianji" will be shortlisted for the Berlin International Film Festival.

   "Tianji" has joined the battlefield, so it will be even more difficult for the two films of their company to be shortlisted.

   "My personal suggestion is to give priority to "Warring States"!"

   "Take up a little bit of post-processing time for "Mining Bottom", cut a few more versions, and then select the best versions for the exhibition, which will increase our chances of winning..."

   "A bowl of water is level, in a big environment, it's not realistic."

  “…”

   Xu Rui naturally knew that "Warring States" took up the editing time of "Mine Bottom", and knew that An Xiao made a rare fire.

   But as an analyst of the company, Xu Rui felt that he had to tell the balance in his heart.

   Many times, we must sacrifice the side with a low winning rate in exchange for the weight of the side with a high winning rate.

   This is something any company would choose.

   "No, don't bring this up again!" An Xiao shook his head, directly dismissing Xu Rui's opinion, and then put down the materials, signaling Xu Rui to continue working on other things.

  Xu Rui hesitated for a moment and wanted to say something, but after seeing An Xiao's eyes, he finally nodded.

  After Xu Rui left, An Xiao looked out the window...

   Outside the window, the snow has melted at this moment, and the sunlight through the glass is bright and warm.

  Whether it's the script or Wu Zhenhong's attitude when he sees Zhou Yang's lyrics, it all proves that Zhou Yang is a talented person...

  It's just that he was buried because of all the hardships in his life.

   She felt he needed a chance!

   As long as he has the chance, he can soar to the sky!

   No matter what the ending of "The Bottom of the Mine" is, An Xiao feels that she must give Zhou Yang such a chance.

  When I think of this...

   She got up and left the office.

   "Boss An!"

   "General Manager An..."

   "Boss An!"

  “…”

  When she walked downstairs to the training room, she heard several staff greeting her.

at the same time……

   She heard another burst of singing.

   then silently looked at the window of the training room, she saw Zhou Yang and Wu Zhenhong sitting side by side, listening to these girls singing.

  Old God Wu Zhenhong was at ease. After hearing the singing, he sometimes frowned, sometimes shook his head, sometimes secretly chatted with Zhou Yang, and seemed to be exchanging opinions.

  In An Xiao's cognition, the old senior Wu Zhenhong has always been a very proud person, and he has never seen him attach so much importance to a young man!

   This is an odd endorsement.

   It seems that the two songs written by Zhou Yang are really good.

   Zhou Yang's expression was very strange, he seemed to be distracted, and from time to time his eyes flashed a bit of daze, as if he was in a trance.

  In the end, eyes seemed to wander in front of the two girls.

  One is Song Qianqian, while the other seems to be Jiang Shushu.

   "Just you!"

   "Miss Jiang Shushu!"

   "I think Miss Jiang Shushu's voice is more flavorful, Mr. Wu, "The Girl Who Waving Wings" or let her sing, what do you think?"

  “…”

  An Xiao saw Wu Zhenhong looking at Jiang Shushu and hesitated for a while.

   and nodded.

  …………………………

   After the show.

   Jiang Shushu was very excited and left with the score of "Girl Waving Wings", but "Invisible Wings" did not choose anyone to sing until the end.

   Wu Zhenhong couldn't make a decision, and Zhou Yang seemed to keep shaking his head.

   It looks like everyone is unqualified.

   Song Qianqian remained silent from beginning to end.

When    left, his mood was very low, and he was no longer the same as before.

   Zhou Yang's eyes wandered between her and Jiang Shushu just now, but in the end, he chose Jiang Shushu.

   She was suddenly disappointed.

  The mood sank to a low point.

at this time……

  Her phone rang.

   The caller was Sun Fangfang, her former manager.

  Sun Fangfang's purpose is still the same, that is, she hopes that she can have a few words with the leaders in the new company.

   She suddenly lost her mood.

   "Sister Sun, you don't know what you missed, and I don't know what I missed... Look!"

   "He's the director, I don't believe that the songs he writes casually can be popular!"

   Sun Fangfang on the other end of the phone seemed stunned, and subconsciously refuted it.

"I heard him write ten songs! But I only showed two of them to Mr. Wu Zhenhong, these two songs. In the past two days, with the identity of Mr. Wu, he can stay up all night to compose the songs for these two songs. Do you think it's trash?"

   "Even so, the songs may not be popular, and the songs that Mr. Wu helped to compose may not necessarily be popular..."

  “…”

   The other end of the phone continued to refute, as if he was forcing something, and he was still stubborn.

   But Song Qianqian finally hung up the phone silently, ignoring anything on the other side.

   It doesn't matter whether the song is hot or not!

   But at least, that song used to be mine!

  …………………………

evening.

   In the crew of "The Crow".

   Feng Kai finally called Zhou Yang.

   But after answering the phone, Feng Kai's facial muscles twitched slightly.

   Then he stood in front of the director's office for a long time, not knowing what to say for a while.

   Just when he hesitated, he saw Wang Shuai push the door open.

   "Did you call?"

"beated……"

   "When did that person come over?"

   "He, can't get through..."

"What did you say?"

   "He is busy editing the movie, and at the same time, he has to help with the new album..."

   "Help me with the new album? Does he make music?" Wang Shuai's slightly indifferent expression was suddenly taken aback.

"He once wrote a song to Xingcai. I don't know what the specific situation is. I'm still stunned..." When Feng Kai said this, he was also in a dazed state, as if he couldn't keep up with the phone. Li Zhouyang's voice.

   "Forget it, I'll go and call President An myself to ask for someone!"
