You Made Me a Superstar - Chapter 478

Chapter 478 Album Released

“The box office of “Lizardman” was only 32 million on its premiere day. Such data is very rare in superhero movies. The data released in North America is not very good, and it was suppressed by “Jaws”. Nearly halfway through, director Scoro Peggy went astray, misunderstood the audience and definition of superhero movies, and even committed the “uncanny valley” effect that makes fans feel uncomfortable after watching it…”

“This isn’t a horror movie. It’s a talent to turn a superhero into a horror movie.”

“…”

Two in the morning.

Li Zhongjun fell into a long silence while watching the box office report of “Lizardman”.

Zhou Yilin sat next to Li Zhongjun and drank a sip of hot coffee. While looking at the bustling streets outside Yanjing City, he sighed at the magic of “Lizardman”.

“The Lizardman” was adapted from a curious comic in Laomei. It was popular in Laomei for a while in the early years, and is known for its amazing imagination. Later, DV Company saw the prospect of this comic, so they acquired this company. Comics, making it one of the subsidiaries of DV Comics…

The success of the “Superman” series naturally made the old American DV company see the prospect of the superhero series. At the end of 2006, a meeting was held, and several superhero movie plans were announced in succession. “Lizardman” is naturally among them, and has invested in it. The weight is not small, and I specially invited Sciro Peggy, a well-known sci-fi director in Norway, to direct the film.

Originally thought that the “Lizardman” IP plus sci-fi director Sciro Peggy would make the whole movie have an extremely amazing chemical reaction, and even everyone felt that it was very possible to make the “Spider-Man” IP a landmark work and then Like “Superman”, it cut a wave of fans’ leeks, but no one thought that “Lizardman” would actually be a pit.

Not only was Huaxia rated low by many fans, but even North America was scolded.

“How much will “The Lizardman” make at the box office?”

“There must be hundreds of millions of box office. After all, there are many diehard fans. If you really watch this movie, I still think this movie has a lot of depth…”

“How much is Jaws?”

“It’s still more than 40 million. The total box office of this movie has exceeded 600 million in less than half a month after its release. According to this trend, there is basically no suspense for this movie to go up to 1 billion. “Jaws” in North America is even more Crazy, it has already exceeded 300 million US dollars, and it is estimated that this film will eventually exceed 500 million US dollars, or even 600 million US dollars, which is another milestone work…”

“What about “Sniper Phone Booth”? With 31 million yuan, Shen Changwei made a lot of money. It was released for three days and the box office went up to 100 million yuan…”

“…”

The night is lingering.

actually revealed a chill that penetrated the bone marrow.

Li Zhongjun was extremely irritable, but he didn’t know what to say for a while. Everything seemed to be out of his control. He vaguely felt that the dark clouds were pressing down on the city and the storm was coming. He had been in charge of Xinghui for many years. Never encountered such a situation.

“Isn’t Shen Changwei going to set a record by stepping on “The Lizardman”?” After a long time, he opened his eyes and his voice was quite complicated.

“Looking at the situation, it should be…” Zhou Yilin did not deny it: “Shen Jinsong’s previous behavior was quite irrational, and he gave Shen Changwei the chance to become famous in vain… Look, Shen Jinsong was just talking about Shen Jinsong. There’s a call…I’ll go take a call first.”

“it is good.”

After Zhou Yilin left the office, Hu Bingqing walked over with a timid expression on her face.

“Mr. Li… Song Qianqian called back.”

“How to say?”

“Huaxing has already been one step ahead of us, helping Song Qianqian set up a studio, and the division is more ruthless than us…”

Hu Bingqing hesitated for a while, then took out some pictures of the contract and handed it to Li Zhongjun.

Li Zhongjun looked at the picture, his pupils shrank, and then he was incredulous: “Zhou Yang is crazy? How dare he open such a ruthless share, don’t you know that Song Qianqian is a cash cow now, how can he do this kind of business? ? You’ve ruined your brain by doing charity work!”

………………

The album “The Farthest Distance” is Song Qianqian’s third album since the disbandment of H48.

The    albums are mainly online albums, supplemented by physical albums. Well, a total of 200,000 physical collection albums will be prepared, and they will be sold in major Xinhua bookstores and a small number of electronic audio-visual stores.

After entering 2007, with the impact of electronic music in the Internet age, it has become more and more difficult to make physical albums.

In the first half of the year, “Sunshine” had a physical album carnival, and it was sluggish for several months. When the album “Sunshine” was sold out, some audio-visual stores did not sell anything for a month, and finally only It has been possible to lose a few months. After entering the second half of the year, Huaxia has almost every day that audio and video stores close down and transfer. The related industries seem to be sluggish overnight, and the depression is a mess.

Vaguely, not to mention tape recorders and CD players, even MP3s and MP4s are starting to go downhill gradually.

Times are like this…

When it came, it was very turbulent, and the pigs could fly when they stood at the tuyere, and when it left, it was very sudden, and there were pigs that fell to death everywhere along the way.

“Don’t crowd, everything is in stock, everything is in stock!”

“Commemorative editions, signed editions, both…”

“After finishing this order, our store announced that it has closed down. We support Qian Qian’s last album, and we will change to online support in the future!”

“…”

Although the era is no longer on the side of physical albums, when the album “The Farthest Distance” was released, there were still countless fans around the door of the lingering audio and video product stores, and there was a long queue for a time. .

Not far from the entrance of the Xinhua Bookstore, a big screen was erected to play the MV of the album “The Farthest Distance”.

Under the big screen, there were countless boys and girls standing. They looked up at their heads and read a poem in the MV, and they were immediately moved to a mess.

The weather in October is getting colder.

Zheng Qianwen, with red eyes, put on her jacket subconsciously when she came out of the cinema, and then blew her nose hard, her heart was filled with great regret and discomfort.

The film “The Youth We Chased Together in Those Years” was too realistic. Looking at it, her tears flowed out, and she couldn’t stop it.

After calming down a little, Zheng Qianwen took out her “Polari” mobile phone, plugged in her earphones, and listened to a familiar and gentle voice in her ears.

This is a song called “Those Years”. It was after listening to this song that Zheng Qianwen learned about the movie “The Youth We Chased Together in Those Years”, and then went to the cinema to watch this movie.

After watching the movie and listening to this song again, the pictures in the movie and the bits and pieces of my student days will reverberate in my mind unconsciously.

Zheng Qianwen’s nose was sore, and her eyes were moist again.

The songs written by Zhou Yang can always affect people’s emotions and give people strength, but they are never tired of listening to them.

Two years ago, the song “Girl Waving Wings”, which was popular in the streets, still sounds powerful…

Two years later, this song “Those Years” was born. In one day, the playback volume of Q Dog’s music has exceeded an astonishing five million, and now it is moving towards the playback volume of tens of millions…

Everything seems to be telling the arrival of that era.

And two years later, Zheng Qianwen is no longer the little clerk who was completely beaten by life and completely lost her confidence.

She has her own store and it is doing well.

After walking out of the cinema…

She saw a lot of people on the street, and the Xinhua Bookstore not far away was full of noise and noise.

She raised her head subconsciously.

When    looked up, he just saw a line of text.

【The furthest distance in the world is not the distance between life and death

But I’m standing in front of you, but you don’t know that I love you

The furthest distance in the world, I stand in front of you but you don’t know that I love you

But I am so obsessed with love, but I can’t say I love you…]

was only a slight glance, but then he was stunned and stared at this line of poetry.

After reading this poem, Zheng Qianwen’s calm emotions once again caused waves…

I was so moved and saddened, but at the same time I was stunned.

Immediately after…

She lowered her head and flipped through every song in Song Qianqian’s second album “Sunshine” on her phone…

Listening and listening, she suddenly heard a different taste.

………………

The new album launch of “The Farthest Distance” was held in the gymnasium of Yanying Academy.

The academy was crowded with people outside the academy, and the media were scrambling to squeeze in. Inside the academy, the gymnasium, which was originally very spacious, was now crowded with people in darkness, making it hard to breathe.

Song Qianqian invited many people over.

Some of the former H48 members, Wu Zhenhong, Song Lian, Feng Kai, also invited their principals, teachers and former classmates in the academy.

As the hottest female singer in the entertainment industry, Song Qianqian’s new album release conference is naturally full of cards.

Zhou Yang and An Xiao also came together.

It’s just that the two of them were very low-key and deliberately put on make-up. After they came in, they were not recognized by any media. Only a few scouts looked at An Xiao, who was tall and slender and cold, and inevitably came over and asked a few questions. But in the end, they were all scattered by the security guards who were mixed in the crowd.

“This album is so poorly prepared…”

“200,000 albums, it has only been released for two hours, and more than 30,000 copies have already been sold. Maybe this album will be sold out today…”

When seated, Xu Mei, who was next to her, looked at the real-time updated album sales and the number of broadcasts on the Internet, and couldn’t help but sigh.

Q Dog Music’s electronic album “The Farthest Distance” sold an astonishing 10,000 copies within half an hour of its release. Two hours later, the physical album broke through to a staggering 30,000 copies, and the electronic album even more It hit more than 70,000 copies, all breaking historical records.

Xu Mei received a phone call not long after she was pleasantly surprised, and then Xu Mei looked at Zhou Yang.

“Mr. Zhou…”

“Um?”

“Qianqian suddenly terminated the contract with her manager Xu Xiaohua, just now… I heard from the backstage staff that Qianqian’s mood seems to be very strange today, even though the album is selling explosively, but the mood is out of control…”
