Hualiu Director

Chapter 29 Selling Songs to Wang Bo

Lin Hong never thought that he could shoot the super long shot of Scene [-] in one day. In order to thank the crew for their hard work, Lin Hong took the risk of overspending and opened three tables at Tanjiacai to reward everyone .

The next day was filming the fifth scene, the initial workshop for the cast of Zombie Set.Lin Hong chose the Beijing Film Conference Room where the crew had their first meeting a few days ago. The scenes in this scene were not too difficult, and the professional actors basically all had one pass. Chen Yu and Ning Zi had slightly more roles in the scene. After four or five times, the filming was successfully completed.

"I announce that the whole drama of "Don't Stop the Camera" is finished!"

Lin Hong excitedly announced the news that made everyone cheer. They finished shooting a feature film in three and a half days. Although the shooting time may only be 110 minutes, they believe that Lin Hong can cut a finished film that satisfies everyone.

In the past three and a half days, both the staff and the actors have been exhausted. Everyone has been crazy with Lin Hong on and off the screen, so after the filming, they all said that Lin Hong should treat him to dinner next time. As for tonight The wrap-up banquet will be kept for now, they need to go home and have a good rest.

In fact, Lin Hong knew that they wanted to save money for him, so he left with the excuse of being too tired.

Everyone left, but the 409 people couldn't rest.

There are only 6 days until the submission of the competition works, and his post-production has not started yet, so he has to work overtime.

That night, Lin Hong plunged into Jingying's editing room. Kong Xiao was checking with pd Xiaosun about every expense in the past few days, ranging from actors' remuneration to ice cream and bread as desserts. List.

Zhang Wentong's post-production art work is second only to director Lin Hong. In order not to affect the progress, he can only recruit people to work together. Fortunately, Beijing Film Academy of Fine Arts has many such talents, and they are also cheap.

Three days later, Lin Hong finally finished his work in the editing room.Originally, Lin Hong wanted to participate in the soundtrack himself, but the time was too tight, so he had to ask Kong Xiao to find a soundtrack teacher to complete the soundtrack according to his requirements, which was almost completed at the same time as the editing.Just before leaving, the soundtrack teacher muttered, "It's a pity that there is no theme song in the end."

Lin Hong thought, yes, the original version of this movie did not have a theme song, and I didn't think about it in this version, but if there is a suitable theme song, wouldn't it be more perfect?

Just do it when you think about it, anyway, if the effect is good, add it, if the effect is not good, don't add it, it's as simple as that.It doesn't take too long to record a song, the key is that writing a song is more difficult, but for others, Lin Hong has ready-made songs here.

Lin Hong took a few manuscript papers casually, and began to compose and write lyrics. Half an hour later, Lin Hong hummed this song "Love Letter to Filmmakers" softly. After humming, Lin Hong stopped humming, because the singing part He really has no talent, presumably Lin Qinglan took away all his singing talent by himself.

But Lin Qinglan couldn't sing this song, he didn't have a strong emotion for the movie, and couldn't express this love.Among the people I know around me, Guo Ying is considered a half-singer, but her voice is not good enough for this song. Compared with Cai Qin's mellow voice, Guo Ying is not good enough.

There is no way, Lin Hong has too few contacts in the entertainment industry, and his resources are really limited.Fortunately, he can still call people.Ask Chen Ge if you don't understand the movie, ask Huang Li if you are unfamiliar with the interpersonal network.

A phone call was made to Huang Li, and the two chatted about the progress of the movie. Huang Li was shocked that Lin Hong really made a feature film.Lin Hong said cryptically that now that the cameraman and pd Xiao Liu are by his side, Huang Li didn't continue to ask about the movie. After all, Huang Li is a guest producer of the program group.

But it doesn't bother Lin Hong, at most, he just asks Kong Xiao to send a copy in private, and it will be bad if Huang Li is cheated when it is screened.

"Uncle Huang, I want a theme song for my movie, and I want to ask if you have any suitable singer candidates."

Asking Huang Li to recommend someone is not considered cheating, and PD Xiao Liu didn't say anything.

"Theme song? There are still a few days left, there is no time to find the theme song now!"

Unless there is a very suitable theme song for a movie on the market, it needs to be produced by someone specially. It's time to hand in the homework, isn't it a joke to ask for the theme song at this time?

"Uncle Huang, you misunderstood. I wrote the theme song myself, and now I need a suitable singer."

"Oh? You can also write songs?"

Lin Hong kept surprising Huang Li, but it was limited to movies before. I didn’t expect Lin Hong to write songs now. By the way, the soundtrack of "Three Monks" was made by himself last time. It seems that he has a good musical quality. It shouldn't be low, this time I dare to use the song as the theme song in my own movie, it seems that I am very confident.

"Uncle Huang, look at what you said, am I not the child of a poor man who has been in charge of the family for a long time? I can save a lot of money by writing songs myself!"

Lin Hong didn't explain why he could write songs, and there is no need to explain. Isn't the reason that he is a genius not enough.

"What a child of a poor man who has been in charge of the family for a long time. You really surprise me more and more. How about this, you send me the song, and I will mobilize friends who make music in the circle to see who is more suitable. What do you think of this song? Does the song have any requirements?"

"Uh... Uncle Huang, if you can try your best to invite experienced movie actors to sing, if it's just a singer, I'm afraid he won't be able to sing the deep feeling in this song. Besides, it needs to be fast, the recording can be completed within two days at best."

Huang Li listened to these two requests from Lin Hong, and quickly screened a group of people in his mind. If you say that the entertainment industry is also full of talents, there are many common talents in film and television songs, so there are so many singers and excellent actors. , an artist who acts and sings well.

After talking about the theme song, the two hung up the phone in a tacit understanding. They didn't say anything more about the movie. Even if this call was broadcast, no one would gossip.

Half an hour later, Huang Li called Lin Hong, saying that he had already found someone for him, and someone would call and communicate with him later. As for who it was, Huang Li didn't say who it was, only that he was a big name in the circle.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, an unfamiliar Qingdao number called.

"Hey, it's Director Lin Hong, right?"

The words are in Mandarin, but Lin Hong has heard this voice countless times on the screen, and when he thinks of the Qingdao number, he has already guessed who is opposite.

"Brother Wang Bo, hello, I'm Lin Hong, just call me by my name."

This Wang Bo also graduated from Jingying, but what he studied at the time was not acting but dubbing, and then he went to acting classes when he had nothing to do. Later, through his own efforts, he achieved many classic roles, and won many titles of actor. He is also well-known in the circle and is very popular with young actors and directors.The most important thing for him to come to this day is his love for acting, and he once released a single, and he was a song and dance troupe actor when he was young.Lin Hong couldn't think of a more suitable candidate for "A Love Letter to Filmmakers" than him.

"Lin Hong, you are really talented. I like this song so much. I just hummed it softly just now. I actually felt like crying. This song is so good."

Wang Bo can't wait to express his love for this song. He must sing this song, and he will not let such a classic song slip away no matter what.

"It's good that Bogo likes it. I'm going to make the theme song for the movie. The time is too tight. I don't know if Bogo can record it by tomorrow night."

If you like it, you like it, but my theme song is sorry if you can't deliver it on time.

"No problem, I arranged for a recording studio to record songs today. But I also have a request."

"Bogo, tell me!"

"Lin Hong, to be honest, I think this song is tailor-made for me, so I want to buy the copyright of this song."

There are many kinds of copyright ownership of songs. Some copyrights are in the hands of the original author, some are in the brokerage company, and some belong to the singer, and even belong to a certain TV station or agency.Now the copyright of "A Love Letter to a Filmmaker" is still in Lin Hong's hands. He can choose to continue to keep the copyright for Wang Bochang, or keep it for himself and not publish it, or sell it to a third party when the song becomes popular.

However, Lin Hong has no intention of starting a music company for the time being, nor does he have the intention of hoarding copyrights.He just wants to make a good movie, and songs are just a tool for him to make movies, not a means of profit.There is no end to making money in the market. Only by constantly dispersing the resources in your own hands and exchanging them for the resources in the hands of others can you continue to widen the road.Exchange a song for a theme song, and get to know the big names in the industry. This business is actually profitable.

"Yes, I believe in Bogo!"

Wang Bo didn't expect Lin Hong to be so straightforward. He still thought that if it didn't work, he would ask Huang Li to negotiate a deal or spend money. It seems that this young director is very courageous.

"Okay, that's great. In this way, the copyright transfer fee for a song in China is basically within [-] yuan. Your song is impeccable. I will give you [-] yuan, and then let you use it to make a new movie for free." The theme song, what do you think, if you are not satisfied with the price, you can also negotiate."

One hundred thousand songs is already very high. Lin Hong did not expect Wang Bo to directly set the highest standard in the industry. It can be seen that he really likes this song, and Lin Hong is also very pleased with this song.

"Brother Bo, thank you so much. To tell you the truth, I am so worried about money now. You have helped me a lot."

Wang Bo bought the copyright of his favorite song, and Lin Hong got a affordable and free theme song. Both parties were happy.The two hung up the phone, one contacted the recording studio and arranger, and the other started to do other post-production work again.

Just as Lin Hong plunged into work, a big news suddenly broke out on the Internet.

"The famous Hong Kong actress Guo Ying kissed the mysterious man on the street late at night!"

At the beginning, it was just an ordinary passer-by who broke the news. He saw a beautiful woman after eating in a restaurant and wanted to take a closer look, but found that she looked like Hong Kong actress Guo Ying. It happened that he heard a young man Calling that woman "Aying." Passers-by thought that this woman was Guo Ying Ben Ying, so they secretly took out their mobile phone to take a photo of a celebrity, who knew that the next moment he would take a photo of a young man kissing Guo Ying on the street.

At the beginning, the photo was only circulated in a small circle of friends in the capital, but soon the paparazzi with a keen sense of smell realized that it might be true, because Guo Ying was indeed in the capital these few days.

Once a professional paparazzi makes a move, it is much more efficient than passers-by.Soon, photos of Guo Ying visiting the man's parents with Li Zimin were photographed, and photos of the two of them watching the Renyi drama while holding hands were also photographed.

For a while, Li Zimin's identity was picked up by powerful netizens. Guo Ying's fans saw that her idol's love partner turned out to be a small prop artist, so they poured into Guo Ying's Weibo to express their dissatisfaction and urged her to break up quickly. There are also many people who are there, and some even directly announce their disappointment in the message area and take off fans, and then unfollow Guo Ying's Weibo.

On the evening of May 5, Guo Ying updated Weibo.

"I may not have a lot of money, but it is enough for a small family to live a life in peace and stability, so any wealthy family or any diamond king is not the first choice for me. I am not young anymore, and I also long for a sincere and pure He happened to appear. Let me introduce to you, my boyfriend Li Zimin, a very talented prop maker, is also my hero.

Like me, not to interfere in my life, but to pay attention to my works.
