"It is worth mentioning that the production budget of "Westward Journey" was 60 million, but now less than half of it can be used."
Zhou Shuo said with a smile: "But we all know that post-production special effects are a money-burning thing. Now all the funds payable, including the actors' salary payment, have been settled, and now the crew has about 34 million left at their disposal.
, my idea is that 14 million will be used for post-production and the remaining 20 million will be used for promotion."
This was something Li Qing had mentioned earlier. After Zhou Shu said it casually, everyone was in an uproar.
Ma Xuyi was the first to say in surprise: "Twenty million...for publicity?"
"Yes." Zhou Shu nodded.
"Isn't this too much?" Amidst the commotion, Xu Wen couldn't help but look shocked on her face.
Because as of now, a blockbuster film with a few million investment in publicity is considered a huge investment. As for tens of millions of dollars in publicity, there is no such thing at the moment, unless it is a super blockbuster like Hollywood that is released globally.
But even for Hollywood's super blockbusters, production companies do not necessarily invest tens of millions in global promotion and distribution. They prefer to find theater agents in various countries and try their best to include all promotion and distribution requirements in the contract.
.
"This is my request." Li Qing said with a smile.
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in confusion. Although they were a little worried in their hearts, the prestige that Li Qing had established in everyone's hearts for a long time made them speechless.
Because the result of every objection is wrong, so why bother beating the boss again and again?
That's just asking for trouble.
Next, there is all the financial content from the release of albums by Cai Li, Bao Yunyun, Qin Hai and others.
This was fine as long as Li Qing himself knew about it, but in order to boost morale, Zhou Shu also gave a general mention to the company employees present to encourage them.
Since the release of Cai Li's album, the sales have exceeded 2.3 million, and the cassette sales have reached nearly 5 million. Now she is overwhelmed with announcements. She is already a stable first-line singer in the mainland. She only needs to wait for the second album to continue to explode, and she will be able to truly achieve success.
Achieve the position of Queen of Heaven.
In addition, Bao Yunyun's new album "My New Era" has once again achieved double platinum status after an absence of two years. With the support of new and old fans, "My New Era" has achieved sales of more than 100,000 in cross-strait and three places.
With more than three million copies and more than seven million cassettes, the title of Queen is truly worthy of her name.
Finally, there is Qin Hai from the Wandering Band. At the request of the company, although Qin Hai still holds the title of the lead singer of the Wandering Band this time, the main highlight of the promotion is Qin Hai.
In particular, the message of singing the Olympic song "I Love You China" made Qin Hai's new album a hit before it was released.
A week ago, Qin Hai, under the arrangement of his manager Tie Xu, began to chart for his new album. The lead song is "I Love You China".
The second title song is "When I Think of You".
Of these two songs, the latter has already been exposed and has a certain fan base. It was extremely popular as soon as it was released online, and its position on the song list rose steadily, even surpassing several of Bao Yunyun's songs.
The former "I Love You China" made its first appearance, and it was created by Li Qing and the name of the song for the Olympic bid, so many people were full of expectations.
When major radio stations played "I Love You China" at the same time, when the lyrics "I love you, dear mother of China, I cry for you and I am proud of you" came out, at that moment, countless fans
I just feel numb all over my body.
Qin Hai's hoarse and thick voice, when singing the lyrics, completely showed his most caring thoughts for a mother, making people cry in an instant.
I love your motherland.
I'm proud of you.
Thinking of China's difficult bid for the Olympics, countless citizens who are paying attention to this matter feel sad.
The next day, under the operation of Hanhai, "I Love You China" was officially announced by the Olympic bidding team as the country's first Olympic bidding song.
Subsequently, under the will of the above, the song was played on the overseas channel of CCTV.
At the same time, Phoenix Channel and Jade Channel also broadcast it at the same time.
Soon, this song was heard on TV in major overseas Chinese gathering places.
"Today I play for you the title song "I Love You China" from the Wandering Band. It is worth mentioning that this is an Olympic bid song officially recognized by mainland China..."
A Chinese student studying in the United States was speechless after hearing this sentence on the radio.
He quickly took out the cassette, pressed the recording button, and clenched his fists excitedly while listening.
After a moment, he excitedly took the radio and ran madly to the school playground, turning the volume of the radio to the maximum.
Not only that, he also moved the speakers from the dormitory.
"Listen, my motherland is going to bid for the Olympics!"
When Qin Hai's vicissitudes of life and emotion-filled singing burst out and spread throughout the campus, a Chinese girl who stopped at the scene suddenly hugged the shoulders of her foreign classmates with excitement, sobbing her whole body.
"Listen, listen quickly!"
More and more Chinese people came from all over the country to hear the news. Listening to the songs played repeatedly on the radio, everyone could hardly bear to be excited.
"My motherland is going to bid for the Olympics!"
University of Hong Kong.
Listening to "I Love You China" suddenly playing on the campus radio, in a classroom, the professor pushed up his glasses frame and said calmly to all the students in the classroom: "I don't know what you will be like when you grow up. No matter you
Whether you fail or succeed in the future, you must remember this moment and this song. Be a patriotic person and love this country as much as you love your parents. If you can't do this, then you, me,
None of us are worthy of being a real human being."
The students raised their heads, listening to Qin Hai's hoarse singing voice and the teacher's earnest instructions, and nodded heavily.
One of them suddenly raised his hand, took off his thick glasses, wiped the tears from his eyes, and said with a smile to the Hong Kong friend next to him: "Let me tell you, the so-called alma mater means that I dislike this place and dislike that place.
, but as soon as someone blackmails her, you can’t help but want to undermine his existence, and the same goes for the motherland.”
In almost every Chinese store in Chinatown, the United States, the song "I Love You China" is playing on a loop at this moment.
People learned about China's Olympic bid and heard the song "I Love You China" on the TV. At that moment, a collective sense of honor enveloped the whole body.
All the yellow-skinned Chinese couldn't help but cheer.
At night in Chinatown, the stars are shining brightly at this time.
A gray-haired old man, with the support of his family, excitedly walked into a stationery store and spent 5 dollars to buy a five-star red flag. The next moment, he waved the national flag and rushed to the street. The old man shed tears and expressed his gratitude to everyone.
The Chinese passing by tried their best to shout: "China, bid for the Olympics!" 8)
