The half-day filming was quickly completed. Tu Yongxiong came over with a lunch box and said, "Mr. Kang, the second team called to say that the shooting of the war scene on the golf course has to be postponed."
Kang Jianfei frowned and said, "Didn't we agree on tomorrow?"
Tu Yongxiong sat down next to Kang Jianfei, took a bite of food and said, "The British Prime Minister has come to Hong Kong. He is accompanied by many officials. Those British guys are going to play golf tomorrow."
"These ghosts are free. If that's the case, let's postpone it for two days and let your wife coordinate with the horse farm and say that we will rent the horse two days later." Kang Jianfei could only sigh inwardly at his bad luck.
Tu Yongxiong said: "Mr. Kang, is it too much for us to rent 80 horses at once? TVB's "The Condor" only rented 20 horses for a big scene. 80 horses were edited with different lenses
, coupled with some infantry, we can at least create a formation of thousands of troops."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "80 horses is not much. If you want to shoot, you have to make a high-quality one."
Tu Yongxiong said with a wry smile: "A quality film is a quality film. According to your shooting method, the average cost of each episode of "Looking for Qin" is at least 20,000 yuan."
Kang Jianfei shook his head and said: "There are so many. Except for a few special episodes, this drama is very economical. The cost is up to 18,000 per episode."
Tu Yongxiong Kuanghan said that TVB's "Legend of the Condor Heroes" was produced at a very high quality for less than RMB 15,000 per episode, while "The Legend of Qin" cost an incredible RMB 18,000 per episode.
After a hasty lunch, Kang Jianfei rushed to the second director's team to have a look, and then turned back to Fengxing Records.
The third album of Happy Girls, and the second album for which Kang Jianfei wrote lyrics and music himself, was released more than half a month ago. Although they also asked a director to shoot a MV for them this time, it may be due to people's concern for MVs.
The freshness has worn off, and sales are far lower than the first record.
Even so, Happy Girls' album is about to sell double platinum. Such a best-selling girl group has attracted the attention of PolyGram and Huaxing Records. Polygram and Huaxing Records have also tried to form a girl group, but unfortunately so far
, except for Happy Girls, all the other girl groups in Hong Kong have crashed into the market and basically disbanded less than half a year after their debut.
"Hello Mr. Kang!"
As soon as I walked into Fengxing Records, all the employees I met greeted me. Although Kang Jianfei, the boss, didn't appear often, the employees had long admired him.
Walking straight to a recording studio, Leslie Cheung was recording "The Wind Keeps Blowing". Kang Jianfei saw that everyone was busy, so he stood aside and listened quietly.
After waiting for Leslie Cheung to finish recording "The Wind Keeps Blowing" successfully, Kang Jianfei asked Li Xiaotian: "How is the recording of this album going?"
Li Xiaotian smiled and said: "Rongzi is very understanding. If everything goes well, the recording will be completed tomorrow."
Zhang Guorong had already taken off his headphones and ran out. He held Kang Jianfei's hand gratefully and said, "Mr. Kang, these songs are great!"
Kang Jianfei nodded and said: "You guys go ahead, I'm just here to take a look. "Sister Tuoqiang" will be finished next Tuesday. I want the two songs "Destiny is the Highest" before Saturday."
Li Xiaotian said: "No problem, "The Supreme Destiny" has been recorded."
In Zhang Guorong's new album, the original songs of "The Wind Keeps Blowing" and "Farewell With You" are both from Japan, and Kang Jianfei can only be regarded as the lyricist. Other songs such as "How Much Fate", "That Slap", etc.
Kang Jianfei wrote the lyrics, Li Xiaotian composed and arranged the music, and the rest of the songs were also composed by Li Xiaotian. In addition, the lyricist was invited to write the lyrics.
Kang Jianfei has split off the music department of Phoenix TV and sold it to Fengxing Records. Li Xiaotian can only be regarded as a member of Fengxing Records. In the future, Phoenix TV's TV series theme songs, interludes, etc. will also need to be purchased from Fengxing Records.
The record that Zhang Guorong is recording now is produced by Li Xiaotian. Two theme songs and an interlude from "Looking for the Qin" are also included in it, both sung by Zhang Guorong. Among them, "The Supreme Destiny" was copied by Kang Jianfei. The other two
The first one is created by Li Xiaotian.
Kang Jianfei and Master Zhang Guorong hadn't chatted for a few words when Deng Yimin walked in and joked: "Boss, you didn't even notify me when you came, were you afraid that I would ask you for money?"
"As long as you don't suspect that I took the money and ran away." Kang Jianfei said with a smile.
The two started joking, but it was Kang Jianfei who took away 40 million from Fengxing Records, leaving the company with only over 5 million in working capital.
Not only did he take money from Pop Records, but Kang Jianfei also misappropriated the Hong Kong box office share of "A Better Tomorrow". He also used the TV station as collateral to apply for a 150 million loan from the bank.
The total amount of money exceeds 200 million. What is Kang Jianfei going to do?
Ever since Mrs. Thatcher came to Hong Kong to hold a press conference and talked a lot of nonsense, Hong Kong society has begun to appear in chaos. Moreover, the British Hong Kong government has not taken any control measures. Instead, it seems to be secretly fueling the situation and linking it to the previous life.
From what I heard, how could Kang Jianfei not have guessed that the Hong Kong housing market and the stock market were about to plummet?
Kang Jianfei didn't know which stock would collapse or how far it would fall. Moreover, there were no stock futures in Hong Kong at this time, so he did not dare to make a rash move in the stock market.
However, Hong Kong's housing and land prices will plummet. Kang Jianfei is still certain that the 200 million raised will be used to buy land and buildings at the lowest price, and he will also choose a suitable place to build his own cinema.
The two came to Deng Yimin's office, and Kang Jianfei learned about the current situation of the record company. What made him most satisfied was that in addition to first-line singers such as Su Rui, Anita Mui, and Happy Girls, Fengxing Records had already cultivated a number of second-line singers with considerable strength.
singer.
These second-tier singers are not well-known, and the sales of their records range from a few thousand to 20,000 to 30,000, which can only make a small amount of money for the company. But when measuring the strength of a record company, except for those popular singers, huge
The group of second-tier talented singers is also a reflection of the true strength of the record company.
Although a company that only relies on two or three first-line singers to make money can make a lot of money in a short period of time, its foundation is very unstable. Once these front-line singers are lost, they will often be in trouble.
Deng Yimin chatted with Kang Jianfei for a while, and something suddenly occurred to him. He took out an artist profile and said: "There is a Taiwanese singer here who can sing both Mandarin and English songs very well, and he also filmed two movies in Taiwan. The last one
When I went to Taiwan to promote Su Rui last week, she took the initiative to find me and said she wanted to come to Hong Kong to develop, so I signed the contract."
Kang Jianfei looked at it and couldn't help laughing, because the singer's name was actually Ye Qianwen. He said, "Since you think it's good, then give it a try. Is there any problem?"
Deng Yimin smiled bitterly and said: "This Ye Qianwen grew up abroad. She speaks English very well, but her Mandarin is very poor. She doesn't know some unfamiliar Chinese characters. Alas, what's even more funny is that she said she wants to come to Hong Kong to develop.
But I can’t even speak a word of Cantonese.”
Kang Jianfei said: "Then let her practice Cantonese first."
Deng Yimin said: "She is learning, but she is learning very slowly. It gives me a headache. But this Ye Qianwen's singing skills are really good, better than Chen Xiuwen from your TV station. I can let her sing the theme song of the TV series next time."
"Let's talk about it then. Since Ye Qianwen learns to speak Cantonese very slowly, maybe it would be good for her to learn Cantonese songs directly." Kang Jianfei thought of the anecdote between Ye Qianwen and Lin Zixiang. In the parallel space, Lin Zixian, as Ye Qianwen's teacher, directly taught Ye Qianwen to sing Cantonese.
Ye Qianwen, whose Cantonese album became a hit, could not even speak Cantonese well for a long time.
…
After staying at the record company for a while, Kang Jianfei returned to the crew of "Looking for Qin" and was busy until the end of the night. Then he discussed tomorrow's work with Tu Yongxiong, Liu Jiahao, Huang Tailai and others.
Kang Jianfei didn't drive back to Lin Qingxia's place until all the shooting tasks for tomorrow were arranged. As for editing, there was no rush. Anyway, "Sister Tuoqiang" will end next week.
Lin Qingxia was very busy filming some time ago, and Kang Jianfei also had a lot of trivial matters. The two had not seen each other for almost half a month. Lin Qingxia was lying down watching TV after taking a bath. Kang Jianfei's sudden arrival surprised her, but she was cold
Face said: "I haven't been here for so long. I thought you had forgotten me."
Kang Jianfei hugged Lin Qingxia and said with a smile: "Even if I forget my last name, I will never forget Sister Qingxia."
Hearing what Kang Jianfei said was interesting, Lin Qingxia stopped playing tricks with him and asked with a smile: "Have you eaten? If not, I will help you get a bowl of noodles."
"I just finished talking about work, and I happen to be a little hungry." Kang Jianfei was not polite. After saying this, he sat on the sofa and watched TV. He looked quite like the head of the family.
"Then wait a moment." After Lin Qingxia said that, she went to the kitchen to get busy.
Kang Jianfei only saw the tail of "Sister Tuoqiang". By the time Lin Qingxia cooked the noodles, "Happy 60 Minutes" had already started playing.
Kang Jianfei buried his head in eating noodles. Lin Qingxia looked at the TV and asked in surprise: "Why isn't it "The Threesome"?"
"Do you like watching "Qiang Qiang Threesome" very much?" Kang Jianfei asked.
"Qiang Qiang Threesome" has been adhering to the style of joking since its broadcast. The sometimes humorous and sometimes sharp remarks are very popular among intellectuals. However, for most ordinary viewers, they are more inclined to choose to watch TVB
"Happy Tonight", they don't want to listen to three people talking nonsense.
Lin Qingxia said: "The female host of "Qiang Qiang Threesome" is very powerful. Her words are sharp and humorous, and sometimes she also tells some erotic jokes."
Kang Jianfei gave Lin Qingxia a vaccination and said, "Hey, don't associate with Yu Zheng, this woman is a homosexual."
"Is she gay?" Lin Qingxia exclaimed, and then said in a funny tone, "Are you even jealous of women?"
Kang Jianfei sucked on the noodles and said, "You are mine anyway, no one is allowed to take it from you."
The corners of Lin Qingxia's mouth curled up, she tried not to laugh, and turned to watch TV attentively.
Not long after watching, Lin Qingxia burst out laughing: "Who came up with this show? My stomach hurts from laughing!"
"Is it that funny?" Kang Jianfei said speechlessly.
Of the four hosts on TV, only Zhang Mary is slightly normal, and Zheng Zeshi can make people laugh even if he talks seriously. As for Mao Shunyun, he was completely led bad by Zhou Xingchi. The two young people made all kinds of mistakes on the stage.
The nonsensical jokes sometimes made the guests laugh and cry.
Some people praised Sandra Ng as the "female version of Stephen Chow", but before Sandra Ng there was a more powerful female comedian, this female comedian was Mao Shunyun. Mao Shunyun was originally quite normal, but she was infected after meeting Zhou Xingchi, and the two
He co-starred in Zhou Xingchi's first nonsensical drama "He Comes from Jianghu", and later performed in "The Holy Love" and laughed like crazy. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian ()
