Chapter 152, Wang Baoqiang [Please subscribe and vote monthly]

On March 18, Xu Wei's new album "Time Walking" was released.

The traditional tape plus disc model is used.

Inner Mongolia, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

It is sold in video stores in all major cities.

The main battlefield is still the mainland.

Under Yu Feihong's planning, Lu Bu took Xu Wei to start publicity in nine cities across the country.

It will be held in the form of a book signing.

When we arrived in Xiangjiang, celebrities such as Zhang Guorong, Louis Koo, Cecilia Cheung, and Tse Tingfeng came to support us.

While in Baodao Province, Jia Jingwen, Jiao Anjun, Xiao Qiang, Wu Zongxian and others also came to help.

This battle was quite big.

The sales data will come out a week later.

70,000 tickets from Mainland China;

Xiangjiang 50,000;

60,000 tickets in Baodao Province.

The sales of 180,000 copies may not seem like much, but compared with the sales of the top three albums of the year before last year, it is already an exaggeration.

In the last century, when singers Teresa Teng and Li Lingyu were popular, their albums were all genuine tapes and CDs, and their sales were astonishingly high.

By the 1990s, when the Four Heavenly Kings were popular, album sales were also good, and millions of copies were common.

But since 2000, the Internet has become popular and pirated CDs are flying all over the place, causing the sales of the physical record industry to plummet. This is related to the career lows of many musicians, producers and singers.

Take this year as an example, genuine CDs and tapes cost 10 yuan each, while pirated CDs and tapes cost 3 yuan.

Therefore, it sold 180,000 copies in a week, which is very impressive. It firmly ranked first in album sales among mainland singers during the same period.

And now the big one is the ringtone.

The title song "Blue Lotus" was an instant hit, reaching 500,000 downloads in one week.

Entertainment news from Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan competed for coverage.

[Rock poet "Xu Wei" returns to the music scene, and the sales of the entire album are amazing! 】

["Blue Lotus" became so popular that it topped all major music charts overnight!]

[Lu Bu invited many friends and superstars in the circle to help promote it, and the artists under Mengjiang Studio are treated so well!]

For a time, people inside and outside the industry were discussing Xu Wei's new album.

In addition, Lu Bu's studio was also discussed.

"I have always thought that it would be unwise for him not to join a big company with resources. But he can not only play well by himself, but also bring artists together to play well."

"There is something. A few days ago, the news of signing Zeng Lai was announced on the Sina forum. It seems that the ambition is not small."

"I'm still not optimistic about it. It's just a small fuss and won't make a big splash."

Everyone has their own opinions on Lu Bu's purpose of opening his own studio and its future development trends.

At this time in Yanjing, Huayi Brothers.

"He doesn't really want to enter the brokerage industry, does he?" Wang Zhonglei said with squinted eyes.

"It's possible. I found out that he invested in the movie "The Blind Shaft" and the TV series "Wind and Cloud" and "Conquer" in the name of the studio." Wang Jinghua said some of the information she had just learned.

"Currently, how many artists does his studio have signed?" Wang Zhonglei asked.

"The three announced are Yu Feihong, Xu Wei, and Zeng Cheng." Wang Jinghua replied.

"Oh, there are actors and singers, but these people can't make it big. Yu Feihong doesn't act in a few movies a year. Xu Wei was depressed by the sales of his first two albums. Although Zeng Lai was in the Double Ice Festival after But there are no good resources." Wang Zhonglei has already regarded Lu Bu's studio as a competitor.

"You have forgotten one thing. As long as Lu Bu is here, there will be no shortage of attention and resources." Wang Jinghua reminded.

indeed so.

Xu Wei has turned down more than a dozen advertisements and endorsements in the past half month.

In fact, no one stipulates that folk or rock singers cannot appear in commercials or accept endorsements, and there has never been such an underlying rule in the industry.

There are many ways to understand why they accept less or no advertising endorsements.

It can be said that commercial endorsements are easily restricted, which is the most lethal reason.

It can also be said that realizing popularity is, to a certain extent, selling one’s soul and falling into materialistic desires, which is completely opposite to the expression of folk spirit and rock spirit.

But in Lu Bu's view, as long as a gentleman loves money and uses it wisely, folk and rock singers should not be poor.

Moreover, as long as their creative mentality remains true to themselves and remains pure, the folk spirit and rock spirit will not sink.

So after talking to Xu Wei about this, he chose to take on some commercial performances.

On March 28th and 29th, Lu Bu was invited to participate in the casting of "The Blind Shaft" and "Conquest".

"It's getting late, it's time to get up."

"Let me sleep a little longer."

"We're going to be late."

"It's all your fault. I've already taken a shower and was drying my hair, but you came in again."

"Didn't you let me in?"

"I'm just letting you into the room."

…

After arguing with Lu Bu for a while on the bed, Yu Feihong got up, dressed and washed.

Lu Bu did not start another war because there was not enough time. Once the war started, it would not end within a few hours.

After having breakfast, we arrived at the agreed place.

"Mr. Lu, Ms. Yu, these are the actors I have found so far, Wang Baoqiang, Li Yixiang, Wang Shuangbao, and An Jing." Introducing the actors was Li Yang, the film's producer, director, and screenwriter.

He has already decided on the leading role.

Inviting Lu Bu and Yu Feihong to come is just a formality. After all, their studio investment accounts for 50%.

"Hello."

Lu Bu and Yu Feihong greeted them one by one.

"Brother, eldest sister, I will definitely perform well." Wang Baoqiang took the lead in expressing his attitude in Mandarin with a unique flavor from Henan.

Lu Bu looked at him carefully. He had an average appearance and was not tall. He looked like he was sixteen or seventeen years old.

But in fact, Wang Baoqiang was already twenty years old, and it was Li Yang who found him among more than 1,000 people drifting to the north.

"Have you ever acted?" Yu Feihong asked a very realistic question.

"Sister, have you ever been a group mathematician?" Wang Baoqiang said, scratching the back of his head.

Yu Feihong looked at Lu Bu.

It doesn't feel very reliable.

After all, we invested 1.5 million, and that’s all the leading actors?

To be honest, Lu Bu is not a person who judges people by their appearance.

But after seeing these actors, based on their appearance and condition, there seems to be nothing wrong with what Yu Feihong said at the time, "You may not make money, but you will definitely win awards."

However, considering that the subject matter of this film comes from the 1998 case of three major mine fraud and murder gangs, it is reasonable and correct to choose a down-to-earth actor to play the role.

If he were to act, it would definitely not have that sense of reality.

"It doesn't matter, I also started as a group performer." Lu Bu said.

"Brother, you are so handsome, how can you be an extra actor?" Wang Baoqiang slapped him in the face with his honest words.

"You're handsome but you can't make a living. You can go and find out. I was nicknamed 'Hengdian's No. 1 Special Agent' back then." Lu Bu smiled.

Wang Baoqiang then grinned.

Very festive.

Very honest.

The atmosphere of simplicity and simplicity is very strong.
