Song Yu has written TV series with love themes, which have good reputation and ratings.
But movies are another story.
There is actually a market for romance films, but they have been spoiled by various film companies.
For example, releasing a romantic movie on Valentine's Day.
Originally, on this special holiday, if there is a good romance movie, the box office will be good.
But romance movies are too easy to make into bad movies.
Over time, everyone no longer trusts it, so the Valentine’s Day schedule was deprived of any box office.
In recent years, few simple love movies have achieved high box office numbers.
After Song Yu announced "Titanic", everyone's reaction was quite intense.
After December, it's January.
There is an important schedule at the end of January, the Spring Festival schedule.
"Charlotte Trouble" will be released soon.
But before that, Xingdong Entertainment also broadcast a TV series, "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
December 29th.
It has been a week since the White Rose Awards, but the news has still not dissipated.
Song Yu became the first singer to be the king of singers, the king of TV shows and the king of movies.
And so young.
In a short period of time, the discussion will take a while.
Star Entertainment Conference Room.
All senior executives are having a meeting.
Song Yan summarized the achievements this year.
Compared with last year, Song Yu is no longer fighting alone.
In the music scene there are Bai Xiang, Zhu Chen, Xingmengshidai, Wen Rensi, Liang Anping, Zhou Jie and Qiao Ling, etc.
Film and television dramas include Qin Jun, Sang Yingying, Li Qiang, Pang Xu, Guan Man, etc.
It can be said that there are two flowers.
In terms of pure income alone, Xingdong Entertainment ranks among the top five entertainment companies.
Large companies make more money, but their expenses are also high.
But Xingdong Entertainment is different, its expenses are relatively small.
Such as publicity.
Because of Song Yu's existence, hundreds of millions in publicity costs were saved.
After talking about this year's results, Song Yan talked about next year's macro arrangements.
It's nothing more than continuing to work hard in the music industry and film and television dramas.
At the same time, we need to recruit people again.
Song Yan has noticed that Xingdong Entertainment relies too much on Song Yu.
Of course there is no problem in a short period of time, but what about after a few decades?
A company cannot rely on one person alone, so it must introduce more talents.
And now Xingdong Entertainment has enough attractions.
Even if you attract the Queen of Heaven or the King of Heaven, it is still possible.
In addition to singers, he is also very attractive to actors.
Look at Guan Man, Sang Yingying, Qin Jun and others. When they first joined Xingdong Entertainment, they were just newcomers with no reputation. Now they are all first-class actors and are in their prime.
His ability to praise people is extraordinary.
What is the most important thing in the entertainment industry? Fame.
Companies that can give people a reputation are naturally the most popular.
"Next January is mainly about two things. First, the broadcast of "Legend of Sword and Fairy". Second, the release of "Charlotte"."
Song Yan paused and asked, "Zhu Hongxiang, what are the publicity arrangements?"
Zhu Hongxiang stood up immediately and replied: "The normal promotions for "Legend of Sword and Fairy" and "Charlotte Trouble" have been arranged, and they will be released on various channels. In addition, I have a suggestion, before the broadcast starts, Song
The director released a song to promote it.”
The song "Charlotte Troubles" has been made into a soundtrack album and released, and the publicity effect is good.
But the songs in "Legend of Sword and Fairy" are actually not bad either.
For example, "Sha Po Lang", "Finally Understand", "June Rain", "Happy Sigh", etc.
In addition to the songs, the soundtrack is also a classic and is widely used in various videos.
"Can."
Song Yu nodded and said, "Let's release "Slaying the Wolf" first."
Even if you put aside the factors of the TV series, this song can still be regarded as a superior song.
Let it take the lead, and the effect should be good.
End of the meeting.
Song Yu returned to his office and made a phone call to Bai Xiang.
The song "Sha Po Lang" was given to her to sing.
A moment later, Bai Xiang released a notice through Kanke, stating that the theme song of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" would be released at 9 o'clock tomorrow.
Song Yu also forwarded it, and it quickly became a hot search topic.
"Since the theme song is about to be released, does it mean that the TV series will be broadcast soon?"
"What about the time? Is there a specific broadcast time?"
"Looking forward to it! After waiting for the new year, I finally got it."
"Brother Yu, here to save the costumes again!"
Fans left messages below.
There is a small rule in the film and television dramas produced by Xingdong Entertainment. Anything starring Song Yu will never be bad.
For example, "My Love from the Star" and "The Legend of the Heroes of the Sacrifice".
The former set a record for idol dramas, and the latter broke the ceiling for martial arts dramas.
And now there is another TV series starring Song Yu, and it is a special fairy tale drama, so naturally I am looking forward to it.
Nine o'clock the next day.
"Sha Po Lang" is officially launched.
Sung by Bai Xiang, lyrics, music and arrangement by Song Yu.
The two trump cards of Xingdong Entertainment.
At 9 o'clock, countless fans chose to buy and listen.
Along with the prelude, Bai Xiang sang several times, which shocked many people.
That unique feeling is conveyed.
"The body that has been sleeping for thousands of years wakes up from the rotten branches and dead leaves. It is the nightingale's sad sigh that unlocks the spell. Who sealed the forgotten sword, following the sound of the flute and the horse's hooves, to find you."
After Bai Xiang opens his voice, everyone can understand the feeling that pervades the song.
Misty, atmospheric, and desolate.
In the chorus part, it is vividly reflected.
"Life is to prove the traces of the existence of love, and the greater life after the fire burns. Killing is to praise the magnificence before destruction. The night is the deep eyes of the wolf. Loneliness is waiting for the dawn."

The pitch is high from beginning to end.
But this design, combined with the tossing and dormant music style, presents the fateful story in "Legend of Sword and Fairy" to the audience.
Of course, everyone still doesn’t know what the story is.
"Wow, Bai Xiang's soft humming is really amazing!"
"I feel that this is not an ordinary fairy tale drama, at least not just an idol drama."
"This theme song alone is worth the amount of plays."
Not surprisingly, "Slaying the Wolf" directly landed at No. 1 on the weekly pop music chart.
Although there are no good songs related to this period, the high sales and reputation prove that this song is extraordinary.
It's not just because of Song Yu and Bai Xiang's fame.
Because of the popularity of "Sha Po Lang", the discussion of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has also begun to soar.
This makes Daxia TV and Penguin Video very happy, saving a lot of publicity expenses.
Of course, the money that should be spent will not be less.
After "Sha Po Lang", Daxia TV, Penguin Video, and Xingdong Entertainment started promoting it together.
The scene was overwhelming.
In just a few days, almost everyone knew that "Legend of Sword and Fairy" was going to be broadcast.
Many TV series scheduled to be broadcast in January have announced postponements.
Mainly because the posture of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is really scary.
Postpone it for a few days and see how things go, so as not to break your head and bleed.
Song Yu stopped taking care of it after the initial publicity.
He was thinking about another question.
Spring Festival Gala program.
As the most popular singer at present, he naturally cannot escape the invitation.
And he really wants to go to the Spring Festival Gala.
Because there is still value.
Although Song Yu is very popular, there are still a number of audiences in Daxia who don't know much about him.
For example, the elderly.
The Spring Festival Gala is the best opportunity.
He has already done it once, and if he does it again now, everyone will be more impressed.
The song I sang last time was "Gong Xi Fa Cai".
This time I can't just perfunctory it.
Song Yu finally chose a special song, "Go Home Often".
No need to explain, Spring Festival Gala Divine Comedy.
After Song Yu made the selection, he sent it to Liao Jian.
This year's Spring Festival Gala is still in charge of the singing program.
"You are really outrageous."
After listening to it, Liao Jian immediately called and said, "This song is as irresistible as "Gong Xi Fa Cai"."
"But I have conditions."
Song Yu smiled. He wrote this song precisely for this condition, "I hope Bai Xiang's "Unforgettable Tonight" will still be the closing song of this year's Spring Festival Gala."
"...?"
Liao Jian was stunned.
He really didn't expect Song Yu to propose this condition.
how to say?
audacious in the extreme.
There has never been a precedent for the Spring Festival Gala to repeat a song for two consecutive years.
"Are you serious?"
Liao Jian couldn't help but said, "If you change the conditions, I will definitely agree to it. But I'm not sure about this either."
"It's okay, I'll send you another song."
Song Yu said with a smile, "This song is called "Where Has the Time Gone?" and it will be sung by Xingmeng Times."
After Liao Jian hung up the phone, he received "Where Has the Time Gone".
He pressed the play button, and a few minutes later, his face showed shock.
Another divine song for the Spring Festival Gala.
Although Song Yu didn't say it explicitly, he also hinted at his attitude.
If "Unforgettable Tonight" becomes the closing song of this year, then these two songs will definitely be on the Spring Festival Gala.
But if not, it's hard to tell.
Personally speaking, Liao Jian doesn't want to miss "Go Home Often" and "Where Has the Time Gone".
Because it fits the Spring Festival Gala so well.
If you give up, you will regret it for the rest of your life.
Liao Jian quickly reported the incident to DaXia Satellite TV.
Several directors argued about this for several days, but to no avail.
Some people think that "Unforgettable Tonight" is already a classic, so it won't be a big problem if it is included in the Spring Festival Gala.
But some people think that it cannot set a precedent, and how should the audience react? No one can bear the consequences.
January 1st.
The long-publicized "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has officially launched.
Song Yu has no schedule, so he has been waiting at home for the TV series to air.
Although he had seen it in his previous life, this world was acted out by him, so the feeling was different.
"Director Liao, there's still no reply?" Zhao Yan asked.
She, Suni and others have already recorded "Where Has the Time Gone" and they also know that it is a song for the Spring Festival Gala.
With Star Dream Era’s current reputation, it’s not a big problem to attend the Spring Festival Gala.
It’s just that it’s more difficult to sing solo, it depends on the quality of the song.
Fortunately, "Where Has the Time Gone" is of good quality, allowing them to perform as a solo act.
But because of Song Yu's conditions, their appearance at the Spring Festival Gala was full of suspense.
In fact, Liao Jian was a little biased.
Even if "Unforgettable Tonight" is killed, Song Yu will still let "Go Home Often" and "Where Has the Time Gone" to appear on the Spring Festival Gala.
The Spring Festival Gala comes once a year, it would be a pity to miss it.
But Song Yu didn't say it explicitly, just to increase the possibility of "Unforgettable Tonight".
"No."
Song Yu patted Zhao Yan's little hand and said, "Don't worry, I think it will be more difficult for Director Liao and others than us at this time."
"You are the only one who dares to impose such conditions." Zhao Yan rolled her eyes at him and said.
"I'm not doing this for Sister Bai." Song Yu said with a smile, "As long as "Unforgettable Tonight" becomes a fixed song of the Spring Festival Gala, she can realize her wish to retire in the Star Dream era."
"Indeed." Zhao Yan said with emotion, "Before this, I really didn't know that the Spring Festival Gala could still operate like this."
I want to turn a song into a fixed repertoire for the Spring Festival Gala.
Not to mention the operation, I dare not even think about it.
"The Spring Festival Gala is still nearly a month away, and there isn't much time left for Director Liao and the others. It is estimated that they will receive a reply in the next few days."
As Song Yu said this, he picked up the remote control and jumped to Daxia TV.
Eight o'clock.
"The Legend of Xia Xia Qi Xia" is officially launched.
The opening song "Sha Po Lang" played.
"I think you look more handsome in ancient clothes than in modern clothes." Zhao Yan looked at Song Yu and Li Xiaoyao's clothes and said.
"They are obviously equally handsome." Song Yu replied casually.
In fact, many actors give people the feeling that they are more handsome in ancient costumes or more handsome in modern costumes.
It can be said that there are very few people who are both equally handsome.
Some extreme actors are extremely handsome in period costumes, but extremely ugly in modern costumes.
This is because of makeup issues.
After the opening song ended, the first episode of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" officially began.
The opening chapter is about the plot of Nanzhao Kingdom.
The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult released the water monster and fought with Qing'er, the queen and descendant of Nuwa.
Li Xiaoyao and Jiu Jianxian went to save the young Zhao Ling'er.
After rescuing Zhao Ling'er, the scene shifted to the inn.
This is obviously a flashback.
Li Xiaoyao, who was idle in the inn, could not see the demeanor of a hero at all.
There is a very obvious suspense about why he would save young Zhao Ling'er in the future.
"It's quite interesting."
Zhao Yan looked at Song Yu, who looked like a gangster, and felt that she had seen a new side.
The peaceful life in the inn was broken when something happened to her aunt.
Li Xiaoyao went to Xianling Island to seek medicine.
He met the grown-up Zhao Linger and his grandmother on the island.
These two men knew him, but he did not know them.
At the end of the first episode, grandma asked Zhao Linger and Li Xiaoyao to get married.
This left many viewers extremely confused.
what's the situation?
too fast?
Just when they thought there would be a twist in the second episode, they didn't expect that they were actually getting married, but instead entered the bridal chamber.
If you look at other TV series, it would take more than ten episodes for the male and female protagonists to recognize each other and fall in love.
In the bridal chamber, you get the big ending.
The second episode of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" focuses on marriage and bridal chamber, which is really hard to understand.
But because of Song Yu's previous reputation, no one thought it was a bad movie at this time. On the contrary, they were looking forward to the follow-up plot.
After getting married, the villains of the Moon Worship Sect came to kill, and Li Xiaoyao met the Jiujianxian again at the end of the film.
In a sense, I am filling in the holes at the beginning.
"Legend of Sword and Fairy" has two episodes every day.
After the second episode ended, many people were waiting for the ratings.
Especially those in the TV drama industry.
Will this determine whether they will avoid "Legend of Sword and Fairy" in the future?
the next day.
Daxia Satellite TV announced the first-day ratings.
10%.
A frightening statistic.
And there is an upward trend between the first and second episodes.
This means that after the first episode, most people stayed.
