Chapter 399 Milk Tea Lun: What else do I have besides music?
Chapter 399 Milk Tea Lun: Besides music, what else do I have?
Wu Hu never expected that this gourmet old man would be so generous.
Originally, he just hoped to use the words of this Xiangjiang gourmet to clear his name, so that no one would think that he was bragging and understating his personality.
He wants to tell the world that he is a man of real ability.
Unexpectedly, the other party not only rectified his name and gave him the title of 'God of Cookery', but also promoted a series of movies for him.
Originally, "New World" had a good box office here in Hong Kong. Under the guise of paying homage to "Infernal Affairs", it had been released for only half a month and already had a box office of close to 30 million. Although it has now been surpassed by the newly released "Fast and Furious 5"
, but there are also 500,000 to 600,000 box office receipts every day.
I came here this time just to promote my movie.
Unexpectedly, the other party was faster than him!
A bowl of egg noodles brought so many benefits, Wu Hu felt that this was a huge gain!
Of course, in addition to this gourmet old man, the celebrities who attended the reception last night were also promoting Wu Hu's movie.
"New World" is a commercial and enjoyable film. Although it is good at portraying human nature, it did not use this as its selling point when promoting it. The selling point was the enjoyment.
In addition, the movie's box office performance is very outstanding, so there will be no pressure on others to benefit from it. If it is a big bad movie, and the star is willing to benefit the fans, he will also need to ask Liang Jingru to borrow courage.
Coupled with the diligent promotion by Wu Hu and others, the box office of "New World" in Hong Kong that day once again exceeded one million, beating "Fast and Furious 5" and once again becoming the single-day box office champion.
The only thing that made the audience dissatisfied might be that Big Wei didn't have any scenes.
During the promotion, some fans asked Big Wei directly, "Why don't you have any fighting scenes in this movie? It's not that your acting is not good, but I feel like something is missing."
Brother Dawei laughed when he heard this, because this question has been asked countless times by countless people, and he has already been a little numb to answer it.
He would say before that it was because he wanted to try literary opera and wanted everyone to know that he was not only good at acting, but also had no problem with literary opera.
But now, he directly blames Wu Hu, "You have to ask Fat Hu, why didn't he design a fight scene for me? I even felt that the character I played died in the end was so aggrieved that he didn't even give it to me.
A chance to get mad."
Sure enough, movie fans immediately became happy when they heard that Big Wei was blaming Wu Hu.
Wu Hu and Cheng Xiao were also laughing there. It was a fan meeting! It didn’t need to be too formal, as long as it wasn’t casual talk.
Faced with the curiosity of fans, Wu Hu once again mentioned the reason for countless times, "The style and tone of this drama are there, and the role played by Big Wei is not allowed to be too awesome. After all, Big Wei's character is just one of the villains."
, not the final big boss. Once you add a fight scene with Big Wei, it will obviously destroy the overall style of the movie."
…
After a day of publicity, Wu Hu and Cheng Xiao returned to the hotel with their tired bodies.
Big Wei went back to his own home and parted ways with them tomorrow.
When they returned to the hotel, Wu Hu and the others met Da Mimi and her agent who had just walked out of the hotel. Wu Hu was somewhat impressed by this woman.
In the future, when Da MiMi decides to go out on her own and form an entertainment company, she will cooperate with this manager. There is no doubt about the ability of this agent surnamed Zeng.
"Fat Tiger (Mr. Wu)..." When they met, they naturally wouldn't pretend not to notice. The two ambitious women greeted him directly, "Are you guys done with the promotion?"
Wu Hu smiled, nodded, and asked, "How is your health?"
"Much better! By the way, let me introduce you, this is my agent, Sister Zeng."
"Although I have never met Sister Zeng, I have heard of her name. She is a capable person by your side." Wu Hu said, reaching out to the woman, "Hello!"
"Hello, Mr. Wu!" Zeng Jia shook hands with Wu Hu and asked, "Have you had midnight snack? Do you want to come together? We are about to go have something to eat."
Wu Hu shook his head and said with a smile: "No, I have to fly to Bay Province tomorrow morning. I have to rest early. You can go by yourself! Pay attention to your safety."
When the two women heard Wu Hu's words, they felt a little regretful and could only wave goodbye.
After entering the hotel and saying good night to Cheng Xiao, Wu Hu returned to the room, followed by Ronaldinho and said, "Damimi asked you to ask me out! How dare you, such a playboy, refuse?"
"With a big light bulb like you here, how dare I go out and mess around with women?" Wu Hu glanced at her angrily, "Tell me! What surveillance mission did Sissi give you?"
"No, don't talk nonsense!"
After simply preparing some clothes for Wu Hu, Xiao Luo went back to her room.
On the other side, Da Mimi and her agent Zeng Jia went to hang out outside the hotel and chatted about Wu Hu, who they had just met, "Did you ask about that character when you met him last night?"
Damimi shook his head, "I don't have a chance to speak, but with my current popularity, there is no need to support Liu Qianqian anymore!"
Da Mimi is also very angry. Before "Gong" became popular, she didn't care. But now that she has become popular, why would she be willing to be a matchmaker for others?
Zeng Jia glanced at her and said: "You are stupid! Being a match for her is fake, but getting on the line with that person is real! Your contract with the company will expire next year. If you work by yourself in the future, you will have to pay more.
Let’s make some friends! He is also a very capable person with rich resources.”
Damimi shook his head, "Even if he has abundant resources, it won't be my turn. He has not only Liu Qianqian, but also Song Tie, and there is a little girl waiting for him!"
Zeng Jia said with a smile: "It all depends on people. I don't think you are any worse than them. Then if Liu Qianqian didn't have a great godfather, would she be able to achieve what she is today? She is lucky!"
Thinking about it, Da Mimi has to admit that Yahuazi's life is better than hers. She was a supporting role in her debut, and she was the absolute protagonist in her second drama. She even acted as a supporting role for him.
The 'Fairy Sword' that made her famous later was also leftover from other people's photos.
Comparing herself with her opponent, Da Mimi felt that she had a bumpy road to stardom.
Of course, if she compared it with Wu Hu now, she would have wanted to die. She had worked hard for several years, but it was not as good as half a year.
He is still working in the TV industry! His first movie has become a hit, with global box office sales of more than 100 million US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 1 billion in flower money.
Forget it, I can’t think about it anymore. If I think about it anymore, I’ll be tempted again!
…
The next day, news that Wu Hu led a team to promote the movie in Hong Kong and conquered the gourmets in Hong Kong and won the title of "God of Food" appeared on major entertainment pages in the Mainland.
It didn’t take long for the entry ‘New Food God Fat Tiger’ to be on the hot search list.
When some netizens saw this, they immediately lost their composure.
"Holy shit! Is it true? This is too much! I know Fat Tiger's cooking skills are good, but can he afford the title of 'God of Cookery'?"
"The God of Cookery in Xiangjiang has given Fat Hu the title of 'God of Cookery'. Do you think Fat Hu can afford it?"
"No! Fat Tiger, you are not doing your job properly. Are you going to promote a movie? Why did you suddenly come back with the title of 'God of Cookery'? You don't want to switch to the culinary world!"
"Is Fat Tiger crazy enough to join the culinary world? No matter how much money a chef can make, can he make more money than being a star?"
"I just want to know, how can I eat the food cooked by Fat Tiger?"
"Go work for him, be his girlfriend, or boyfriend..."
"This boyfriend, is he serious?"
At this point, the building began to tilt.
At this time, Wu Hu had already taken Ronaldinho, Cheng Xiao and his assistant on a plane to Bay Province.
Arriving at noon, Milk Tea Lun’s assistant Danny came to pick us up.
Cheng Xiao was taken directly to the pre-booked hotel, while Wu Hu and Ronaldinho were taken directly to Milk Cha Lun's mansion, and saw his future wife in his mansion.
What Wu Hu didn't expect was that this little sister who was not yet a minor would actually become his little fan girl this time, "Brother Hu, your movie is so great, I've watched it three times!"
Wu Hu laughed and said "thank you" first, and then asked: "We meet again, should I call you by your name this time, or should I call you sister-in-law?"
One sentence made the little fan girl blush. Milk Tea was so angry that she came up and hugged his neck and left, "Let's go! I wrote a few songs for you to enjoy!"
"No! Didn't you say you wanted to treat us to a big dinner? Where's the big dinner? In order to eat the big dinner you mentioned, Little Luo Ke and I have been hungry until now!"
Ronaldinho was speechless and protested: "Please don't add the word 'short' in the middle, thank you."
The little fan girl smiled and said: "I have already ordered a meal for you and it will be delivered to you soon. Don't worry."
"My sister-in-law is still nice to me! Brother Lun, you have to learn from my sister-in-law. Don't just know music all day long. How boring!" Wu Hu complained, and the little fan girl covered her mouth and laughed.
Ronaldinho and Danny hid aside and talked quietly.
Milk Tea Lun said speechlessly: "Besides music, what else do I have now? My movie "The Green Hornet" which was released in February is nothing compared to your movie!"
"The Green Hornet" was released in early February. At that time, Wu Hu happened to go to Bald Eagle. He originally thought that the box office result of more than 140 million in the mainland was pretty good.
Milk Cha Lun was quite happy at that time. After all, he had been scolded a lot for his previous role in "Chilling", and this "Green Hornet" just rectified his reputation.
As a result, only two or three months later, Wu Hu's "New World" came out, which directly destroyed the results of "The Green Hornet" and dealt a critical blow to Milk Tea Lun.
At the same time, he was happy for his brother, but at the same time, he was sad for himself. He felt that he was really not suitable for making movies. The acting skills of this newcomer Fat Hu were beyond him.
Wu Hu coughed lightly and said, "You have to think about it this way. Your movie has a global box office of more than 200 million dollars, but my movie is only that much! It's still far away from 200 million dollars!"
"Your movie hasn't been released in Europe and America yet!"
Wu Hu shook his head, "There are many film producers over there who want this movie, but they all want to buy it out directly. And I estimate that the box office performance of this movie in Europe and the United States may not be very good. Let's
The culture is very different from that over there, and it’s hard for them to understand our introverted culture... Although my movie is a fun movie, there is still some difference between this kind of dark fun and the direct fun of a popcorn movie.
.”
This can be seen from the time when "Infernal Affairs" was released in North America, it made hundreds of thousands of dollars at the box office and then was hastily completed.
The latter two films were simply not released there.
Europe and the United States even hope to buy the adaptation rights of "New World".
"The Departed", the adaptation of "The Departed" in Bald Eagle, has a much better box office performance than "The Departed". This is the result of the cultural differences between the two sides.
It is difficult for Westerners to understand what pleasure is, and they pursue sensory stimulation more.
Therefore, Star Entertainment is also negotiating on the copyright buyout.
However, Star Film and Television is not in a hurry. The better the results of "New World" in Asia, the more bargaining chips they will have in negotiations.
Although "New World" has already made a lot of money, no one would mind making more.
Not long after, the big meal ordered by the little fan girl arrived. Danny and Ronaldinho went out to pick it up, and came back to set the table. It was filled with ten dishes and two soups, and the portions were quite generous.
But with Wu Hu here, no one is worried about wasting it.
In the afternoon, Dani took Ronaldinho out for a stroll, while Wu Hu and Milk Cha Lun closed the door and played music, while Little Fanmei acted as an audience.
Then Wu Hu discovered that Milk Cha Lun actually also played electronic dance music.
Wu Hu knew that this was Milk Cha Lun's exploration to seek a breakthrough for the new album.
Unfortunately, Wu Hu was not very impressed with the new album he prepared.
After all, he is not senior Jamie.
After that, Wu Hu also sang two new songs he 'wrote', one was "See You Again" that he had sung on the show before, and the other was "NUMB" that was drawn by the system lottery, not Linkin Park.
The song was written by XXXTentacion, another teenage rapper who died young.
Wu Hu actually had no impression of this singer.
I know this name, it was given by the system.
He only knows that in the era of explosive short video platforms in the future, the song "NUMB" is often used as a sad BGM.
The usage rate is quite high, and it is even praised as a sad divine song by many people.
When Wu Hu played the electronic keyboard and sang this song with an emotion of almost dying, Milk Cha Lun couldn't help but frown slightly.
The general idea of the lyrics is very simple: Every year, I drown in my tears, I drown in my tears again, I can't seem to forget the pain you gave me, the pain you gave me, my friend...
This extremely sad mood brings a different kind of expression to this simple song.
Especially the 'oh oh oh' part of the chorus pushed this extremely sad mood to the extreme. Even Milk Tea Lun felt goosebumps after listening to it.
After the song ended, Milkcha Lun asked: "Fat Tiger, are you okay?"
The little fan girl looked on with some curiosity and didn't say much.
Wu Hu broke free from this emotion. After all, this song was given by the system. The system poured his singing skills and experience into his mind, and at the same time, it also transferred some of the original author's emotions to him.
Therefore, when he sings the songs given to him by the system, he can easily incorporate his own emotions into them, making people feel that he is full of emotion when singing.
Milk Cha Lun could feel that when Wu Hu sang this song, he was not only extremely depressed, but also as if he had experienced the pain.
"I'm fine!" Wu Hu shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm just embodying my emotions. As a senior musician, you don't understand this kind of singing technique, right?"
"No! This song sounds quite sad. How did you come up with the idea of writing this kind of song?" Milk Cha Lun was quite curious, and the song was written in English.
This guy doesn’t know how to come up with an English album!
Faced with Milk Cha Lun's inquiry, Wu Hu also came out with his lie, "Didn't I go shopping at Bald Eagle last time? I had seen a lot of burning, killing and looting incidents, so I just wrote a few casually at that time.
After I came back, I tinkered with it and completed the music, but I didn’t seem to know what to write in the lyrics, so I just made it simple and perfunctory.”
"..."
Milkcha Lun felt quite speechless, "Is it really okay for you to be so perfunctory with your fans?"
Wu Hu laughed and asked: "Brother Lung, are you interested in collaborating with me on the song "See You Again"? You will be responsible for the rap part."
After hearing this, Milk Cha Lun smiled and said, "Okay!"
