After "The Crow" wrapped, everyone on the crew went their separate ways.
Liu Tingting, Zhao Zhen and others received remuneration and some wages from the crew.
The salary is not high, about 30,000 yuan per person, and the scattered wages for helping on the crew add up to 40,000 yuan.
This amount of money is not high for many artists in the industry, but it is a huge sum of money for them.
Zhou Yang's salary was RMB 100,000, and after tax, he got about RMB 85,000.
Although it may not seem high, Wang Shuai is prepared to share the box office revenue of "The Crow" as well as some bits and pieces overseas, so that it will not be a loss for both parties.
After Zhou Yang got the money, he didn't go to KTV like other people to have fun, but to treat a princess to spend the night to vent the depression accumulated on the set of "The Crow".
He immediately deposited the money into his bank card account, then lay quietly on the bed all night, and returned to Yanjing with the crew the next day.
By the way, I took a ride in Song Yiyi's nanny car with Feng Kai.
"If you have nothing to do, don't be depressed all the time. Smile more."
"Find more friends to chat with. Yanjing is not a big city, so you can also talk to me. When I have time, I will take you to Yanying and introduce my teacher to you. You should have a lot in common..."
"..."
There is no never-ending feast.
When the car saw Hua Xing, Song Yiyi watched Zhou Yang carrying his luggage, said thank you to herself, then turned and left.
She suddenly said these words.
"Oh, okay, thank you, Teacher Song..."
Zhou Yang turned back and smiled at Song Yiyi, spoke to her again, then packed his luggage and slowly got out of the car.
"Zhou Yang, how about I send you there? It's only a few kilometers away from Huaxing, and there might be paparazzi squatting here..."
"Ah, no need, our car is here."
"Um...okay then."
Song Yiyi's nanny car started up again.
The surrounding scenery is constantly accelerating backward.
Song Yiyi watched Feng Kai and Zhou Yang leave. Somehow, she had a strange premonition that it would be difficult to star in a movie with Zhou Yang like "The Crow" in the future.
Although she is not the kind of sentimental person, she still has an invisible sadness in her heart.
Just at this time……
She inadvertently saw a Lamborghini passing by her nanny car.
She turned her head subconsciously, and then saw the supercar parked next to Zhou Yang. The woman in the driver's seat took off her sunglasses, said something to Zhou Yang, and then sat in the passenger seat holding her backpack...
That seems to be... An Xiao!
It really is!
The boss of China Star Entertainment.
Haha, I didn't expect that a cold-blooded person like An Xiao would come to pick someone up in person one day. It seems that they really value Zhou Yang and the others.
Song Yiyi recognized who that woman was and couldn't help but frown.
Wait, it seems her car can only seat two people, right?
What about Feng Kai?
Then, she saw a commercial van parked next to Feng Kai...
Song Yiyi suddenly had a strange expression.
……………………
"Mr. An, I feel this is not good. Director Feng..."
"I didn't know you were going to get off the bus together."
"..."
Zhou Yang sat in the car, looking behind him.
The van behind him followed closely behind the car. The commercial vehicle was used to pick up and drop off the company's lesser-known artists.
At this moment, there were several security personnel crowded in the car, as well as Feng Kai.
When he got off the car, Feng Kai looked very happy, feeling relieved and running towards a new life. However, after Zhou Yang got into the sports car in a very high-profile manner under the protection of a group of security guards, Feng Kai's His face fell instantly, especially the smile he showed after getting into the commercial car, which was really suppressed.
In everyone's life, there is always an unbearable weight...
obviously.
At this moment, Feng Kai is bearing this weight.
Zhou Yang fell silent.
He felt in his heart that he couldn't help Feng Kai.
These days, whether it is "Under Mine" or "The Crow", Feng Kai has been busy all the way, but he has gained very little.
"Zhou Yang, have you considered which one to choose between the Golden Melody Award and the Academy Award?" An Xiao glanced at Zhou Yang from the corner of his eye.
Zhou Yang is a lot darker than before, his skin is much rougher, and there are scars on his arms, but compared to when he left, he seems to have matured a lot, and his whole person is full of confidence.
"have no idea."
Zhou Yang was at a loss.
He asked Song Yiyi a few days ago. At first, Song Yiyi enthusiastically helped him introduce the situation of these two awards, but after asking, he was driven away by Song Yiyi.
He even asked Wang Shuai.
"Get out!"
Wang Shuai even held it in for a long time after hearing this, and almost used a broom to chase people away.
Gu Jian
He didn't show off, but asked for advice seriously, hoping that someone could help guide him on what to do so that neither party would be offended.
But everyone thinks this guy is very hateful!
Of course he also thought about asking Feng Kai.
But when he was about to speak, he suddenly stopped again.
His emotional intelligence is low, but not to such a low level. Feng Kai, who was already quite depressed, could not help but become even more depressed when he heard about his problems.
The world is like this sometimes, you are obviously very troubled...
But you have no one to tell you.
That's very sad.
After An Xiao saw that Zhou Yang's expression seemed a little depressed, he said nothing more.
When the car drove to the underground parking garage of Huaxing Entertainment, Zhou Yang suddenly looked at An Xiao.
"Mr. An..."
"What's wrong?"
"Can Director Feng's contract be voided?"
"Once you sign a contract, it must come into effect. Otherwise, what's the point of signing a contract?" An Xiao looked at Zhou Yang.
"Is there no chance of change?"
"The key is to look at him. To untie the bell, you must tie the bell..." An Xiao glanced at Feng Kai who got out of the commercial car and showed a faint smile.
"..."
………………
The spring breeze of 2006 blew across the land of China, taking away patches of the chill of winter.
Desktop computers, which were once considered unattainable, are gradually entering thousands of homes. Q-dog chat and major online games have gradually become one of the hottest topics among young people.
In a trance, the new millennium that everyone had longed for had unknowingly reached its sixth year.
In the early morning of May 16, Xu Mei left Xinghui Entertainment exhausted after finishing the work at hand.
After returning to the dormitory, she couldn't sleep. Every time she closed her eyes, the sales volume of Cai Lin's "Flying Against the Wind" and the ranking of Cai Lin's original song "Meet You" on the Internet appeared in her mind.
From February to now, "Meet You" and "Meet You" have been a hit.
But every time "Meet" surpasses "Meet You", it will be suppressed by "Meet You", and then the song "Meet" comes back powerfully.
The total global sales of the album "Flying Against the Wind" has exceeded 210,000 copies, which is infinitely close to the astonishing sales figure of 230,000 copies.
Major music websites continue to recommend every song in the "Flying Against the Wind" album in various forms, and the number of downloads of ring tones is also skyrocketing. The number of downloads of the song "Hanabi" has exceeded one million, heading towards
Rushing into the top ten...
Various data show that "Flying Against the Wind" is definitely another milestone for Cai Lin since her debut. Major media have classified Cai Lin into the ranks of first-line singers. Even some exaggerated media have predicted that Cai Lin will be the next pre-selected Chinese queen.
.
However……
As the future queen's manager, Xu Mei was not happy.
Behind the seemingly explosive popularity of the album, there are countless false data and countless resource exchanges. Not only that, Cai Lin’s fans are constantly using various channels to support "Flying Against the Wind" crazily.
The amount of money involved has exceeded an astonishing million, and many fans began to complain privately, but before they could even say a few words, they were drowned out by countless praises.
Xu Mei has been coming to Yanjing for two years!
In the past two years, she has witnessed the decline and decline of physical albums, and then witnessed the gradual rise of digital music in the Internet era.
As a steady stream of capital poured into this circle, Xu Mei felt more and more that this circle was very dark. In order to get ahead, everyone in Xinghui Entertainment was using various methods to suppress competitors and peers, and even within the company,
When you are out of position, you are also filled with countless flashes of swords and shadows. If you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss.
no doubt.
Cai Lin is one of the best.
She seems to be willing to do anything to get the top spot, and for the album "Flying Against the Wind", she used all her strength and means.
Although Xu Mei doesn't agree with Cai Lin's approach, she can understand her from Cai Lin's point of view.
The sales of the album "Flying Against the Wind" cannot be lost. No matter what method is used, it must be won, even if it costs all the money!
Many advertisers are eyeing Cai Lin, and even Coca-Cola Company has privately hinted that if Cai Lin can break into the front line with this album, they will consider making Cai Lin the spokesperson for China.
Coca-Cola!
This is an endorsement that many people in the industry dream of. Not only does it come with an astonishing endorsement fee, but it is also a symbol of strength.
"Why……"
Walking on the street.
I saw many young people walking around with MP3 players in their ears. The two songs "Meet" and "Girl with Waving Wings" were played on a loop from the loudspeaker outside the video store not far away...
Xu Mei sighed in her heart!
There are only five days left until the Golden Melody Awards ceremony.
All kinds of resources and funds have been almost spent, and Cai Lin's team has lost all their capital, just betting on these five days...
Sales volume is also an important scoring criterion for the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards!
However, the sales of "Flying Against the Wind" and "Girl with Wings" have not increased, but there is a faint trend of the next wave of attacks.
Can they survive five days?
A heaven, a hell!
Xu Mei felt this way at this moment.
"Perhaps this era is not Cai Lin's era, but his era?"
Xu Mei inadvertently saw the anti-fraud advertisement on the bus not far away showing Zhou Yang wearing a police uniform and saluting seriously...
