Chapter 231 Success is inevitable
In the Rainbow International Cinema, Liao Chang quietly watched the Infernal Affairs, with a lot of thoughts in his heart.
I vaguely remember that seven years ago, a teenager entered the red song practice room and practiced vocal music under his guidance. The teenager didn't talk much, but his understanding was extremely strong. Not only that, what surprised him was that the teenager's hard work made him feel terrible.
Originally, in his opinion, vocal skills should be practiced from an early age. Originally, he didn't think much about teenagers, but in the end he changed his mind.
Until a year later, the teenager recorded a few songs. You and your deskmates had a good journey, which amazed him to the extreme. He felt that he was a genius, and he could definitely achieve great development in the future, and even become a good singer.
When he watched this farewell party through Qingyang TV, Liao Chang strengthened his confidence.
I just didn't expect that he was wrong, and he was very wrong.
He has been paying attention to him, from the theme song of Qingyu International Time and Song TV series, to the fairy tale musical record a year later, to a leaf of Zhiqiu's collection of three discs, and then to the movie soundtrack records. Every song in it is classic and perfect.
There are also several English songs that have gone abroad and have become popular in some countries in Europe and the United States. The Cup of Life, we are the champions, and we have sung all over the world with the World Cup.
Although the new World Cup last year was not held in China, there was no Ye Zhiqiu on it, and the Longteng team did not finally win the world championship, but with the victory of the Longteng team, the song "We are the champion" also sounded in the World Cup again and again. Ye Zhiqiu's name was also mentioned again and again in the World Cup.
Not only that, but the achievements in movies are even more incredible. The word-of-mouth and box office achievements brought by each film are almost a history of struggle and legend.
However, Liao Chang was gratified that after Ye Zhiqiu graduated from university, he came to invite him to join Hongye Entertainment. Although he did not agree because of his career and the red song practice studio, he also got a lot of business of Hongye Entertainment because of Ye Zhiqiu.
He knew that this was Ye Zhiqiu's means of repaying kindness. At the beginning, because of Ye Zhiqiu's efforts, he almost passed on all his knowledge to Ye Zhiqiu. Although it was only a year, the two had a deep friendship in private and had already become friends.
With the establishment of Rainbow International and the merger of Qingyu International, the Red Song Practice Room was affected. Finally, after consideration, Liao Chang finally decided to merge the peak of the Red Song Room into Rainbow International, and he also became the head of this department.
For him, this may be another way out. He is not stupid, but smart.
In his opinion, the future of Rainbow International is incredible. In the future, it will definitely dominate China and even go to the world.
On the other side, Liu Tang was very happy, and there was a feeling that the hero finally had a place to use it.
In the professional actors class of Rainbow International, Infernal Affairs is also playing at this moment, but the difference is that the broadcast is to stop for a while, and then Liu Tang talks for a while, and dozens of artists under the stage also listened with relish.
As the boss of the original comedy life performance studio, he also paid a lot for Ye Zhiqiu's rapid growth.
He, who is nearly 40 years old, has always regarded Ye Zhiqiu as the most proud disciple in his heart, not because of Ye Zhiqiu's hard work, not because of Ye Zhiqiu's performance, but because of how much Ye Zhiqiu put his theory into action, really daring to perform and dare to try.
At this point, he had already realized from Ye Zhiqiu's first film My Savage Girlfriend that with Ye Zhiqiu's handsome image and calm temperament, he was willing to give up and destroy it.
The silly protagonist in the savage girlfriend, the blind and dumb protagonist in the star wish, the little security guard in the crazy stone, the down-and-out athlete in the crazy racing car, the bold and free Linghu Chong in the world, the ice and stone in the wind and clouds... All Liu Tang saw everything in his eyes, so he deeply knew that Ye Zhiqiu's play. Therefore, it is extremely broad, and you can play almost anything, and you don't frame yourself.
He himself is a madman who does not want to be manipulated by others. He has a strange spleen and little place to tolerate him. However, such a person, both in theory and acting skills, are unimaginable. Therefore, after several invitations, Ye Zhiqiu finally invited him to Hongye Entertainment to cultivate young artists under Hongye Entertainment.
Because of Liu Tang's strange temper and real materials, both Xuanxuan, Mu Xiaoyu, the Philharmonic Orchestra F4, Hu Qiu, Huang Rong and others have been scolded countless times, and they are now the number one awesome people under Rainbow Entertainment.
Fortunately, as everyone gradually became famous, there were fewer opportunities to come, and they didn't even dare to come, so the new newcomers began to suffer.
It can be said that Liu Tang was the most shocked by the birth of Infernal Affairs. He did not expect Ye Zhiqiu to be silent, so he made such a play. Under excitement, he actually asked the consent of the upper class to publicly explain the connotation of Infernal Affairs. Of course, this was his own understanding.
As for the audience, although there is no mandatory surname requirement, there are a lot of people coming because of Infernal Affairs's hot comments today.
Because it's just an explanation of the surname, many people know that Liu Tang can't curse, so almost everyone who can come.
Among them are Liu Tianle, Cheng Kailong, Zhou Lang and other big names.
Almost all of the actors who are doing it have seen Infernal Affairs. After watching it, they naturally know that this is a classic film. At the same time, many people finally realized the gap between the movie emperor and ordinary actors. When they admired it, many people sighed because of the plot of Infernal Affairs.
I felt as if I had experienced a dream, and followed the two protagonists for a heavy life.
As Director Fang Zhongqing, a subsidiary of Rainbow International, said in a comment after watching the film.
Infernal Affairs tells the boundary between good and bad, but good and bad have been blurred by truth and lies. Two people are doing a person who should do it every minute and every second, but at the same time they forget which one is the real themselves.
Always live in lies and deception. Over time, all the lies seen have become true.
Fang Zhongqing's evaluation of Infernal Affairs is extremely high. Although he did not say it directly, he clearly explained his thoughts in the speech analysis.
However, under the gaze of several superstars, even when Ye Zhiqiu was in it, Liu Tang said his research results mercilessly.
"Infernal Affairs is excellent, which is a rare all-round excellence. The strong dramatic conflict from the plot to the psychological line, from the tension gives the character a slow and mature rhythm and control of the opportunity to dig deep into the heart. This is a perfect masterpiece, but since it is already so perfect, what more steps do you need to take?
"It's dangerous to take one more step. If you take two more steps, it's a pit. I'm very confused. The story is obviously over. Why hasn't Director Ye stop..."
If you haven't seen the second and third scripts, many people may have this idea.
Even Liu Tianle and Cheng Kailong once had the idea that the first one can be read, because he is completely a classic. With the second and third parts, it will even give people a feeling of a dog tail continuation.
Of course, Ye Zhiqiu is the director, and they have all read the script. Although there are some flaws, the second part and the third part is the same classic, which is unimaginable.
For them, films that often have sequels are usually the first one that is very wonderful, but the follow-up is very weak. Although there are some wonderful sequels, there are very few.
However, at present, Rainbow International's night visit to vampires surprise everyone. This is an example of a real sequel that is better than the first part, so everyone has completely put down their thoughts and waited for the second and third parts to be released.
Qiankun Entertainment, in different rooms, Wu Kun and Du Xingcheng are reading each with a copy of the South China Daily.
Then, for almost ten seconds, the two saw a report almost at the same time.
"The four movie emperors co-starred together. The Christmas film Infernal Affairs has exceeded 400 million at the box office in the week of its release. This is another better and more popular film after Ye Zhiqiu. It is expected that after the release of Infernal Affairs II and III, it is possible that the box office of the three films will reach about 5 billion..."
Five billion, such a horrible amount, made Wu Kun's eyes wide open and his hands tremble.
On the other side, Du Xingcheng suddenly stood up and walked back and forth in the room.
Since what happened in Qingxin Garden, he has not had a good impression on Ye Zhiqiu, and in the subsequent competition, it seems that Ye Zhiqiu did not see them at all. Qiankun Entertainment caught up, and it just entered the second-rate, and Hongye Entertainment changed and became Rainbow International.
Thinking of Yan Qingshan, an old fox, Du Xingcheng hated it. However, although he was rich, he was powerless. If he caused something, he could not stop hugging left and right.
He suddenly threw away the newspaper in his hand, but Du Xingcheng made up his mind. He was an errand man. At present, there were many actors to accompany him at any time, so that he could enjoy his happiness. He would not foolishly continue to work against Ye Zhiqiu. I'm afraid that in the end, he would not be used as a gunman by Wu Kun, but by Tianyu.
"I just thought I had been bitten by a dog, and I will never get in with this matter in the future."
Wu Kun was also afraid. He was kicked out by Wu Hongguo, which was equivalent to being separated. Although he is not married now, it is already Wu Hongguo's mercy that Qiankun Entertainment can step into the second class so quickly with the help of Tianyu. If he comes out with another moth, I'm afraid that as soon as Wu Hongguo let go, there will be only one death in Qiankun Entertainment.
Thinking of Wu Zunlong, Wu Kun is itchy with hatred, but his heart is extremely angry. Why is it not him who is favored, but Wu Zunlong?
I continued to watch it, but I saw a lot of reports about Ye Zhiqiu, and I finally felt powerless about it.
Unconsciously, Wu Kun thought of Qin Luan, Xuan Xuan, Yan Yu, and another figure in his mind.
"Xiao Pingting?"
"Will he take revenge on me because of Xiao Pingting?"
Wu Kun said to himself, but then relaxed and smiled sarcastically.
With his understanding of the entertainment industry, he knows that there are many ways for an entertainment company to destroy an artist, but it is difficult to deal with an entertainment group. But it's also easy to discredit a person.
It's just that although he was kicked out, he also has the support of Tianyu. No matter how capable Ye Zhiqiu is, I'm afraid he can't do anything to him.
What's more, even if Ye Zhiqiu wants to deal with him, he will have to wait until he develops to the point where others are unshakable.
"Can he do it?" When Wu Kun laughed, he also had an idea that Ye Zhiqiu might be able to think about it, but then he was dumped by him.
No matter what, Xiao Pingting, who has disappeared for several years, has been forgotten by him. Even if there is really something about this matter, there is also Wu Hongguo. What is he afraid of?
Philharmonic Entertainment Group, Mu Yuhan looked at the newspapers in his hand one by one.
Over the years, he has gained a lot in movies. Unlike his previous creative talent, he creates albums and new people for newcomers. Now he is completely for himself, so in just a few years, he has created four movies with good word-of-mouth at the box office, and he has gained a lot for a while.
However, no one knows that in his heart, he regards Ye Zhiqiu as his only enemy.
As for Ouyang Jie, who specializes in movies, he has been left far away by him for a long time. Wu Zunlong, who relies exclusively on Tianyu, makes him extremely disdainful. He was extremely disgusted with Wu Zunlong's style and the reputation of the playboy from the outside world.
At this moment, he is reading a comment on an entertainment news.
"There are many movies with undercover as the theme in China, and it has been one of the mainstream films for a long time. How to repackage this old theme is the most important job for screenwriters and directors. Ye Zhiqiu boldly assumed that the police could send undercover agents into the underworld, so the underworld could not turn back? A simple concept brings a new feeling to the audience. I have to say that in terms of screenwriting, Ye Zhiqiu is indeed worthy of the title of the hand of God. It's simply amazing..."
In recent years, I have also created screenwriters by myself, but Mu Yuhan can't be as easy as Ye Zhiqiu, which has a great influence.
At this moment, he couldn't help smiling bitterly. In terms of music creation ability, although he had created five newcomers, he had already admitted that he was not as good as Ye Zhiqiu at all with the song and the original soundtrack record produced by Ye Zhiqiu.
At present, he is not as good as the screenwriter and in the movie. In terms of the director, he sighed that he could not make a film.
Thinking of this, Mu Yuhan was shocked and suddenly found that he had found a person who could not be compared. Isn't he asking for trouble?
"He is an all-rounder and a genius. I admit..." Mu Yuhan slowly spit out this sentence and suddenly felt much more relaxed.
The influence of Infernal Affairs continues to spread, which can be seen by almost all discerning people.
On the other hand, the number of 22,000 cinemas, 30 days of release time, is more than four weeks.
At present, the basic box office has reached nearly 400 million in the next week, so in 30 days, it will definitely exceed 15 or 6 billion. This is indeed a surprising box office several times. If the box office of the second and third films can be the same, the total box office is indeed expected to be close to 5 billion.
And this 5 billion was only made by Ye Zhiqiu in four months, which would not surprise the outside world.
Because of this, many film companies from other countries have come to the door and negotiate one after another. In this way, coupled with the box office revenue of other countries, tens of billions of dollars are possible.
Of course, Ye Zhiqiu knows very well that the billion here is only 100 million on the earth, and the 10 billion is just a billion, and there is nothing to compare surnames.
If there are 60,000 cinemas in a country on earth with a ticket price of dozens of yuan, I'm afraid it's not just billions, but tens of billions, so after comparison, Ye Zhiqiu will no longer be surprised.
What's more, don't think that the actor's salary is not high, don't think that a movie can rush up, and don't think that the employee's salary is free.
The development of Rainbow International is a bottomless hole. The construction of the film and television city and the construction of the Rainbow City all require money. At the price of this world, a film and television city alone may require tens of billions of funds, plus a children's kingdom, similar to Disney's game kingdom, I'm afraid it will be billions.
The four movie emperors performed on the same stage, and naturally they were inevitably compared by the public.
Among the four roles, the most difficult role is Liu Jianming. It is really difficult to play his almost split heart. Liu Tianle's performance is really rare, which surprised many people. They think it is the most successful performance since the cooperation with Ye Zhiqiu and all his films. He is expected to win the Golden Statue Award and even the Golden Dragon Award. As for whether you can step on the stage of the golden ball, it needs to be cloudy.
As for Cheng Kailong's role, there is not much to play, and it is not difficult for Cheng Kailong.
The performance of Zeng Weitian, another free movie emperor, made the role of the boss extremely prominent and left a deep impression on the audience.
Of course, Zhou Lang surprised many people. He interpreted the deep and perfect of the police, as if standing still could make people feel the foresight and prudence of the character.
Originally, from a commercial point of view, it was very uneconomical to invite four movie emperors to co-star in a play, but from Ye Zhiqiu's point of view, he knew it well, but he was willing to spend money.
Different from the scenes and special effects of the original film, Ye Zhiqiu's choice of scenes and a few places that need special effects have also made a lot of efforts, so compared with the original film, the scene is much bigger.
At the same time, the second review was completed and entered the stage of fierce publicity.
On the poster, when many people saw Ye Zhiqiu and Bai Tao, they also knew that this was a prequel. At the same time, because of the popularity of the two, they had the desire to enter the cinema to watch.
What surprised Ye Zhiqiu was that the review was completed in less than a week after the third part was sent up.
At this time, the second part is still in the process of publicity. Although there is no need to make a big publicity because of the first part, simple publicity is still necessary.
So, after discussion, Rainbow International did something that surprised everyone.
That is, Infernal Affairs III was released one by one in advance and released with the two. Then when the ultimate Infernal propaganda poster appeared in flames, the whole China almost became the world of Infernal Affairs and Ye Zhiqiu's world.
Ye Zhiqiu's name is often talked about by children at this moment, and many film and television universities have studied Infernal Affairs one after another. Countless couples, friends, and even made an appointment to watch these two movies together.
At the end of March, Liu Tianle also received nomination invitations from the College Student Film Festival, the Golden Phoenix Award, and the Golden Statue Award.
Ye Zhiqiu, Bai Tao, Zhou Lang, Cheng Kailong and others were also nominated at the same time.
Because of the influence of the wind and clouds, Ye Zhiqiu, Bai Tao and Liu Tianle were shortlisted for the Best Actor and the Most Popular Actor Award. Zhou Lang and Cheng Kailong are just shortlisted for the best supporting roles.
With Liu Tianle, the best actor, in front of him, Ye Zhiqiu didn't bother to show his face. Not only did he not gain at all, but he was afraid he would be squeezed. What's more, he said last year that he would not participate in any awards in recent years, and how could he go back on his words, so he refused.
Ye Zhiqiu can refuse, but Bai Tao can't.
Although Bai Tao is now very powerful and has starred in several major plays by Ye Zhiqiu in succession, he is very powerful, but he is not as talented as Ye Zhiqiu. He is a famous all-round talent.
Ye Zhiqiu's refusal has a premise and strength, but Bai Tao has not reached this point yet.
What's more, Liu Tianle and others are going to go. How dare Bai Tao not go, so he is ready to go.
Of course, Liu Tianle and other awesome people can be shortlisted for three film awards, and Bai Tao does not have the ability. He is only invited to participate in the college student film festival because of his popularity.
In April, it was the first part of Infernal Affairs that was about to be removed from the shelves. The second part and the third part passed the review one after another. After experiencing publicity events, the release time was announced.
During this period of time, many movies have deliberately postponed the submission for review because of Infernal Affairs. Even if some reviews are over, they have begun to delay and are not ready to be released with Infernal Affairs and Infernal Affairs.
Although the time is staggered, the popularity of Infernal Affairs is enough to explain many problems.
The two Infernal Affairs films were released together, which is equivalent to a joint attack. In this crack, if it is not a blockbuster, it is really difficult to protect yourself.
It doesn't mean that there are countless film companies in China, and there are not many blockbusters released at the same time. This is impossible. At the same time, there are two major productions of Tianyu and Kyoto's top entertainment groups, one of which is starring Wu Zunlong.
In addition to two, more than a dozen movies from more than a dozen first-class entertainment groups will be released in this month, which can be said to be a vigorous box office battle.
Ye Zhiqiu doesn't have many ideas about this, and success is inevitable.
Even if it's an accident, what can it be? The worst is to recover the cost, not to mention that this proportion is simply too small, smaller than the pie falling from the sky.
At this time, Ye Zhiqiu also took time to write a few songs and gave them to Liu Tianle, and Liu Tianle's task was also clear at this time.
That is, during Ye Zhiqiu's shooting of East and West and East Evil West Poison, Liu Tianle will continue to receive 18 songs written by Ye Zhiqiu and record them into two versions in Chinese and English respectively. At the same time, he will also shoot 36 MVs. Such a huge share is more difficult than shooting a big production.
