So far.
China Star Entertainment currently has fifteen contracted artists, eight agents, and 32 permanent employees.
It is still a small-scale entertainment company in China.
However, as of this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, China Star's 2007 film and television box office figures have shocked countless people.
The total box office of China's domestic movies is 3.5 billion yuan, and China Star's movies account for nearly 1.2 billion yuan of box office value.
Accounting for one-third of the box office, it not only slapped other film and television companies hard, but also changed the structure of the entire Chinese film industry.
The music data is even more amazing.
In this era when physical albums are dying out and countless singers are turning to the Internet, Victoria Song's total album sales have bucked the trend and increased, exceeding one million on September 10th.
In addition, Song Qianqian's album Cai Ling has been downloaded more than 100 million times, online music plays have exceeded 200 million, Qgou Music has ranked first in the female singer list for 40 consecutive days, and she has become a well-deserved dark horse in 2007...
Experts have calculated that in the past nine months, China Star's total profit from all aspects of film, television and music copyrights has reached an astonishing 500 million net profit!
"However, because we have done a lot of charity, the actual profit funds on our company's books are nearly half less than what outsiders estimate..."
In the office.
Xu Mei took out the quarterly report, hesitated for a while, and finally said this to Zhou Yang.
After she finished speaking, she glanced at Zhou Yang's reaction, and saw Zhou Yang nodded calmly, and then stared at the computer on his desk in a daze, as if he was thinking about something.
After finishing the report, Xu Mei did not leave.
Zhou Yang just brought her in and reviewed the report. It was obvious that he was preparing something.
"Let the finance department come over."
"Okay, Mr. Zhou, who are you..."
"Originally, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I should give out some gifts, but after thinking about it for a long time, I am not a person who gives gifts. After thinking about it for a long time, let's just make it more conventional."
"Cheesy?"
"Well... you can tally up the list of companies and give it to me later."
"good."
Seeing Zhou Yang racking his brains for a long time, and finally letting out a sigh, Xu Mei looked extremely distressed, and Xu Mei's face was full of doubts.
But then, she nodded and left the office.
After Xu Mei left the office, Zhou Yang's mind suddenly flashed back to the scene that year when Zhang Genshui was filming "The Bottom of the Mine" and ran to the mountains with a lot of money and gave it to everyone.
"The First Clan"
He suddenly felt a little nostalgic.
However, his thoughts were soon interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Mr. Zhou..."
"Well, Miss Song?"
"I wrote another song for the album "The Farthest Distance". Do you want to listen to it? It's pure music, with no lyrics yet..."
"Oh, you wrote another song?"
"yes."
"are you OK?"
"It's pretty good. I've been very inspired lately."
In the office.
After Zhou Yang saw Song Qianqian pushing through the door, his face showed a bit of shock.
Victoria Song's eyes were bloodshot, her face was horribly pale, and she looked extremely haggard, as if she hadn't slept for more than ten days.
Zhou Yang took the CD handed over by Song Qianqian, and then played the new song "Insomnia" on the CD. The moment he clicked on it, he heard a melody that was extremely low and filled with despair.
He listened to the melody silently. After the low melody revealed despair, as if he was trapped in darkness and unable to extricate himself, the rhythm began to become more and more depressing...
After listening to this, his calm mood suddenly fell into a low ebb, and he felt out of breath. It took him a long time to recover.
"This song is too sad. It doesn't seem to fit in with the tone of the entire album... This song makes people feel a little world-weary. What has happened to you recently? How could you write such a desperate tune?" Zhou Yang was worried.
Looking at Song Qianqian, he had never heard such a sad melody in his previous life or in this life.
"I'm fine, Mr. Zhou. If I can make you feel desperate, then I've succeeded! I only need to fill in the lyrics of the last song in the new album "The Farthest Distance" and it will be perfect!" Song Qianqian saw Zhou Yang's reaction.
He smiled with a satisfied look on his face, then took back the CD and left the office on his own.
Zhou Yang looked at Song Qianqian’s back...
Ever since the album "Sunshine", Zhou Yang always felt that Song Qiqian was inexplicably crazy.
Then, he carefully recalled Song Qianqian's eyes when she looked at him just now, and the word "weird" instantly appeared in Zhou Yang's mind.
Immediately afterwards...
He subconsciously took out several song demos from Song Qianqian's new album "The Farthest Distance" from the drawer. After listening carefully for a while, he vaguely felt that the melody and lyrics of each song in this album seemed to
There was some secret hidden there, but after searching over and over for a long time, he still couldn't find what secret was in this album.
Eventually, he stopped worrying about anything.
……………………
Han Yan felt that something was wrong with An Xiao's parents, her aunt, and her uncle.
During the chat, whenever she talked about her boyfriend George and how great George was, her aunt and uncle showed a bit of expectation and regret on their faces, and then they unconsciously talked about Zhou Yang,
From time to time, he poked his head out and looked outside, as if expecting Zhou Yang to come to the door soon.
Han Yan didn't understand.
George is the proud disciple of the internationally renowned piano performance artist Mr. Perahia!
The people he comes into contact with are either upper-class celebrities or noble musical performers. Which one is not an internationally famous person?
Why do they think that Zhou Yang, a film director, can provide some constructive suggestions for George's music "Wedding"?
Regardless of status, the two sides are really very different in terms of artistic taste, right?
Don’t your aunt and uncle understand the status of Perahia’s proud disciple in the international music circle?
No, it shouldn't be. My aunt and uncle still like music. When they were young, they often took them to major concerts to listen to music. Not only are they very good at appreciating art, but they should also know the status of a person like Perahia, right?
"Why do aunt and uncle like Zhou Yang so much?"
"have no idea……"
Han Yan couldn't help but ask her cousin An Xiao, but An Xiao shook her head coldly.
It's afternoon.
An Zhibin and Tang Xiao came over with gifts.
The two of them were undoubtedly the most popular among the relatives in the entire compound. As soon as they entered the gate, a group of young people greeted them.
They will get married next month, and the date is scheduled to be October 1, a day celebrated by the whole country. This is a great joy for the entire compound.
Han Yan also came up with George and introduced each other.
Han Yan found that although Tang Xiao and An Zhibin were both enthusiastic about them, this enthusiasm seemed to belong only to the kinship relationship between them, but they did not seem to be interested in George's works or his international music status, and even
When Han Yan talked about how George would play specifically for their wedding and would most likely compose the "Wedding March", Tang Xiao just smiled politely.
George's identity seems somewhat insignificant in this big family.
"Xiao Zhou will come over later. When the time comes, let George and Xiao Zhou chat more and learn more... It will be helpful to George's creation. Xiao Zhou has a deep attainment in music and art..."
"Ah? This..."
Tang Xiao's words stunned Han Yan again.
The expression on George's face next to him was a bit unbearable. Although he wore a gentleman's smile, he was deeply hit in his heart.
He thought that this time when he came to China, he would be the one who attracted the most attention, but no one expected that when he got off the airport, he found that everything was different from what he had imagined.
"Isn't Zhou Yang a director? It's true that he can create music, but...why do they think that when I chat with Zhou Yang, Zhou Yang can provide me with constructive suggestions? Don't they know the difference between Zhou Yang and me? I know.
He wrote the song "My Motherland", and I admit that this song is quite nice... However, I study classical music, and I am international. No matter how great Zhou Yang is, he is only from China.
?Are they brainwashed by Zhou Yang, or do they have no artistic appreciation?"
George pulled Han Yan to the corner and complained a little angrily.
"That's not the case. They don't know you, and they don't know your future situation. When those famous musicians from China come over, they will know your weight..."
After Han Yan patiently comforted George for a few words, the expression on her face began to lose its composure.
When it was three o'clock in the afternoon, several musicians from the Chinese Music Association, including flute master Zhou Hongwei, suona master Tong Yuan, erhu master Zhang Zunlian and others, also came over.
Han Yan was very familiar with these people. After seeing these people, she took George and greeted them excitedly.
"Teacher Zhou!"
"Xiao Han? Hello, haha, long time no see..."
"Teacher Zhou, hello, let me introduce you, this is my senior brother George..."
"Haha, hello Mr. George, I listened to your piano recital "Summer in France" last year. It was very exciting..."
"Haha, okay, okay!"
The somewhat gloomy George suddenly became excited when he saw Chinese flute master Zhou Hongwei looking at him with enthusiastic eyes and shaking hands with him.
Sure enough, only people in China who really understand music know my status in the music industry!
Then he greeted Tong Yuan and Zhang Zunlian one by one, tried his best to listen to Han Yan's words, and remained humble to these people. His appearance made several people very enthusiastic towards him...
But as soon as they talked about Vienna, they talked about music performances, and they talked about symphonies.
George couldn't help but feel a little carried away, and Han Yan also introduced the "Wedding" he was creating just right. Although he said on the surface that he wanted to get some advice from a few people, it was revealed subtly that teacher Perahia's opinions on "The Wedding" were hidden.
The tone is much appreciated…
When these Chinese musicians heard this, they all began to admire and expressed their desire to listen to the prelude to "Wedding"!
George couldn't refuse his hospitality, so he was naturally surrounded and sat beside the piano. But before he started playing, he noticed that the musicians seemed to be looking towards the door again.
Then……
"Hey, Xiao Zhou is here!"
"Haha, Xiao Zhou is here, he's late."
"Xiao Zhou..."
"Have you completed those songs recently?"
"Ha ha……"
George noticed that these people walked towards the door in unison.
But his hand that was about to play the piano was hanging in the air, and he was so embarrassed that he didn't know whether he should put it down...
