Chapter 297 Can I be shortlisted for the Golden Melody Award?
The first filming went very smoothly. Everyone on the crew was very happy. Everyone hoped that the first scene could be shot smoothly. If the first scene goes well, the subsequent filming will go much smoother. Wang Zhengfei fell down
I don’t think it’s superstition, but I’m implying that after the first scene is successfully filmed, everyone’s mental state will be greatly improved.
This is the benefit of a smooth first scene. Shooting this kind of military film has never been fast, especially when fireworks are needed. Although Wang Zhengfei invited top international teams this time, in order to ensure safety,
A lot of things have to be prepared. The progress of the shooting is already very slow compared to Wang Zhengfei's previous shooting speed. After all, some scenes can be synthesized in post-production, while some still have to be shot on site. Some scenes are very dangerous. This
Dian Wang Zhengfei would rather go slower to ensure safety, because if something happens, the time lost may be much more than this.
Wang Zhengfei can still distinguish this point clearly. For the team members who have shot with Wang Zhengfei, this time will undoubtedly be much easier.
However, the progress of the filming has been much slower, which does not mean that Wang Zhengfei's work progress will be easy. In fact, Wang Zhengfei's workload has not decreased much, because in the past, Wang Zhengfei was directly responsible for these small things, such as the prop master, but now Wang Zhengfei
Every time I take a photo, I will check it to make sure there are no problems before I start shooting.
Time passed minute by second, and Wang Zhengfei devoted himself to the filming of "Snow Leopard". However, the external turmoil did not stop, and it did not stop because of Wang Zhengfei's absence. The turmoil at the Academy Awards had just passed, and Wang Zhengfei had not had time.
After coming out of the turmoil of the Academy Awards, we immediately fell into another turmoil, and even the Golden Melody Awards were about to start.
The annual Golden Melody Awards are awarded in the middle of the year each time, and the shortlist has already come out around May. This year’s shortlist is extraordinarily large, attracting the interest of many media, because there are so many this year.
One variable is Wang Zhengfei. Wang Zhengfei’s album this year is basically destined to be the album sales champion this year. The 7 million copies are more than twice that of the second-placed Jay Chou. It can be said that he has swept most of the market this year. Now
Everyone is watching whether the Golden Melody Awards will award this award to Wang Zhengfei, or whether Wang Zhengfei will be shortlisted. This is a very big news.
Because although it is said that the Golden Melody Award is open to singers from the entire Greater Chinese-speaking region, in fact, not many singers from the mainland can be shortlisted. Only Naying was shortlisted in the previous years. A large number of other outstanding mainland singers have no chance to be shortlisted.
.
Although Taiwan's Golden Melody Awards are called the Asian Awards, they are actually very 'Taiwanese'. Just look at how many of its awards are for the music of Taiwan's aborigines. In fact, it should be said that the Golden Melody Awards
The pop music award is actually the Golden Melody Award well-known to mainland audiences. The rest is their own internal awards for insiders, such as lifetime contribution awards and the like, which are basically well-known in Taiwan.
Some people joked that it should be the Taiwan Contribution Award.
In fact, there should be nothing to argue about whether it can be shortlisted. After all, Wang Zhengfei's album has sold more than 7 million copies. In terms of sales volume, it is impeccable at all. Of course, there is no need for quality.
Say, if the quality is very poor, is it possible to sell more than 7 million copies? This is simply impossible. You know, of the 7 million copies sold, Wang Zhengfei's die-hard fans only have 2 million at most.
Three million, the rest are purchased by neutral fans or people who just want to listen to good songs. Everyone knows this. If the quality is not good, it is impossible.
How many copies can be sold?
But it’s useless just to have good sales. The Golden Melody Award is still relatively stingy. You know, last year, Wang Zhengfei’s new album "Fireworks Easily Cold" was even better than this in quality, especially the completely Chinese style.
, has attracted praise from countless music critics. Although the album sales are not as good as this one, "Three Kingdoms", it still has a sales volume of 3.5 million copies. It was the first time that year that it surpassed the second place Jay Chou in the sales volume.
This time, he beat Jay Chou for the championship, and his performance was far higher than Jay Chou's by several times. No one dares to say that he will definitely win the Golden Melody Award with such a result. If this result were obtained by a Taiwanese artist,
Needless to say, it is enough to sweep all major awards at the Golden Melody Awards.
According to the "discrimination" of the Golden Melody Awards against mainland singers, the probability of Wang Zhengfei being nominated is not high. However, the Golden Melody Awards also has another tradition, which is upsets. Upsets are also a common practice of the Golden Melody Awards. They often happen
There is such an upset situation, but this is not very certain. After all, many people said last year that Wang Zhengfei might be shortlisted, but it turns out that they were all wrong. Wang Zhengfei was not shortlisted at all, let alone a sweep.
situation.
The media and newspapers are now divided into two groups. One group believes that Wang Zhengfei has a good chance to get on the album this time. After all, the sales volume this time is too strong. The sales volume of 7 million copies is almost equal to the total sales of the three albums behind Wang Zhengfei.
sales volume.
The other group thinks this is unlikely. After all, no miracle was achieved last time, and it is unlikely this time either.
However, in the face of the uproar from the media, Wang Zhengfei didn't say anything, not even whether he could be shortlisted. He didn't even see the media. He had devoted himself to the filming, and the media were different from usual.
In the past, although the filming had to wait for a special visit day, even if it was not a visit day, even if you couldn't interview, you could at least take some pictures of the shooting situation, but this time it was different. This time, not only was it not captured at all, it was not even captured.
You can't even get in. The filming of "Snow Leopard" this time was specifically shot in the old city that was newly built. The police blocked the outside bar and there were staff blocking it inside. If Wang Zhengfei didn't want to let him go, he wouldn't have entered at all.
No, such strict precautions not only greatly disappointed many reporters who wanted to interview the filming situation of "Snow Leopard", but also greatly disappointed many reporters who wanted to know what Wang Zhengfei thought about the Academy Awards.
.
It’s not as if Wang Zhengfei inside didn’t get any news at all. After all, the crew would talk about this topic during the break, but Wang Zhengfei didn’t have much interest. Originally, he already had to devote most of his energy to the filming of "Snow Leopard"
, most of the time also needs to be spent on "After Ascension". The structure of "After Ascension" has been completed about half of the creation, and the remaining time should be completed in July and August. This is Wang Zhengfei's personal estimate.
Whether it is accurate or not remains to be said.
And from time to time, he has to go back to Yanjing to work on "Qin Shi Mingyue - Part 2", but fortunately, "Qin Shi Mingyue - Part 2" has been basically completed. The only thing left is to confirm the completion and submit it for review and
It is a matter of negotiation with major theater chains. Under normal circumstances, only Gao Yan is responsible for these matters, but there will be times when Wang Zhengfei must step in. After all, Wang Zhengfei is still one of the directors and producers, and it is impossible not to show up on all occasions.
, For example, Wang Zhengfei needs to personally take part in the movie viewing sessions held by the managers of major theaters, but there are also things like inviting the leaders of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau to dinner, etc. Even now, Gao Yan does not need to be responsible.
Now he is a boss no matter what, and now Xingchen Entertainment is in full swing. Apart from Gao Yan’s own background, as the boss of Xingchen Entertainment, it is a bit disgraceful to be involved in everything.
But no matter what, there are so many things going on that Wang Zhengfei doesn’t have time to care about the Golden Melody Award. Moreover, this Golden Melody Award is a matter that has no shadow at all. He hasn’t even been notified of being nominated.
It's too early to care about this matter now. He was very excited last year. The first physical album he released last year sold well, with sales of 3.5 million copies. Except for Jay Chou, no one else
People can compare themselves with each other, and they were very proud at that time. But later, let alone winning the award, they were not even shortlisted. The hot thoughts were immediately cooled down, and they could not muster the energy to care about such things.
It’s not too late to wait until the finalists are confirmed.
Appearing in front of the media at this time, are you saying that you have the ability to enter or that you are incapable? If you say you have the ability, then if you don't enter, it will not be as simple as losing face. If you say you don't, how can you
Otherwise, he would be too weak. In that case, the loss of face would be even greater. Regardless of any consideration, Wang Zhengfei is not suitable to appear in front of the media.
So Wang Zhengfei simply closed the door and thanked guests without seeing anyone. This was the best. The media would not find a chance to disturb him, and Wang Zhengfei could take photos quietly. In this way, everyone would be happy.
Of course Wang Zhengfei was very happy, but the media were depressed. They originally wanted to take the opportunity to ask Wang Zhengfei, hoping that Wang Zhengfei could tell something very exciting. Even if Wang Zhengfei avoided talking about it, they could still make up the news.
, but now that Wang Zhengfei can't even see them, they really have nothing to do.
