"I tell you that Toy Story 3D cartoon will become a milestone in the world animated films. For our company, this movie itself is necessary. What I value more is the technology of Industrial Light and Magic. We must put it into practice.
The animation special effects technology is ranked first in the world, but it is far ahead of the second in the world... Do you think I will reduce my investment in this project?"
Everyone was relieved to hear Liu Lang say this. Everyone is optimistic about the project "Toy Story". If Transformers are the focus of the first stage of development, then this project is the focus of the second stage and will be cut off.
Lucas will object. Since Liu Lang said that, everyone's worries will be gone.
"We want to do record business, not to discover any celebrities. I want to make money, and to make money as quickly as possible. My plan is to make this business profitable in one year of $100 million.
, with this money, we can certainly better support the development of Industrial Light and Magic!”
Liu Lang's words almost scared Lucas so much that he sat on the ground.
"It's 100 million in a year? Jimmy, are you kidding me again?"
Lucas couldn't believe Liu Lang's words. Not to mention Lucas, even Chengxian and others thought this was a bit too big.
"George, I'm not kidding you... I ask you, how can the record business make money?"
Liu Lang asked remarks.
"Well... let me think about it... By the way, that is, you need good songs, as long as the songs can be sold well, you can make money!"
Lucas answered.
"The answer is correct, then what kind of song can be sold well?"
Liu Lang asked again.
"This...well, you have to win more awards no matter how you get it. What kind of awards like "billboard", Golden Melody Awards or even Grammys should be sold out!"
"Yes, the record business is actually that simple. As long as you have popular songs, you will definitely make money. Michael Jackson bought five million copies of a record released earlier, and the profit alone reached 50 million US dollars.
, including the sales revenue of peripheral brands, the revenue brought by this record is 70 to 80 million US dollars. If we sell two or three of them a year, it will be more than 100 million US dollars!"
"Puff!"
Lucas couldn't help laughing.
"Jimmy, Michael Jackson is a music genius. He has a keenness towards music that ordinary people cannot compare with. The whole world cannot find the second place. You say we can reach his level, who can do it? Anyway, I am
You can't do it, you can't even think about it!"
"Not necessarily!"
Liu Lang smiled.
Michael Jackson's musical level is unparalleled. His total sales of one of his records reached 150 million in ten years. This record was written in the Guinness World Records, unprecedented and may not have come later.
There are also Grammy Awards that have won more than ten times, and there are countless other awards. His achievements are the pinnacle of the music industry, which makes all artists look up to.
But that was in the previous life. It would be different if Liu Lang had the "bug" in this life. Liu Lang had hundreds of songs in his head, many of which had won grand prizes in his previous life.
If someone produces one or two such songs, he may become a songwriter with a certain reputation. If he writes five or six songs, he must be a well-known author and becomes the target of many celebrities' invitations to songs.
What if he wrote more than a dozen such songs? There is no doubt that he would become the so-called "godfather of music", such as Liu Lang's previous life, Li Zongsheng and Luo Dayou. Their songs are all classics and influenced a generation.
With human growth, their status in the Chinese music circle has naturally reached its peak.
If one person created more than 100 classic songs that can be sung by future generations, what level would he be?
Anyway, no one in Liu Lang's previous life could reach this level in the record field. Michael Jackson might be a little bit worse. The directors in the film industry may just be close, such as James Cameron and Spielberg.
George Lucas is also one, and the three of them are known as the three major Hollywood directors.
The primary condition for directors who can reach this level is that the movies must sell well. They can do this, but they still have to have high output, which is very difficult.
James Cameron has movies such as "Terminator", "Titanic", and "Avatar", and each one has a high box office, especially the two movies "Avatar" and "Titanic", which occupy the world's movies.
Two of the top three box offices have a box office of more than $4 billion, and Spielberg and Lucas are not much the same.
But they are not high-yield directors. They have to take a few years to finish each film. There are also high-yield ones, but the quality level is much worse. If you make too many bad movies, it will affect you, and it will not be worth the effort.
It has both high yield and good quality. Liu Lang feels that only he can do it in this world, whether it is a record or a movie, he can easily complete it.
It’s not that he sings and directs himself, he doesn’t have that time. He just needs to write the songs, write the script of the movie, and find the right person to sing and direct. As long as his level is not lower than his previous life, it must be
He will sell well, sell in a mess, and even earn more money from this aspect than he earns in his main business, and he doesn't have to spend much effort. What a wonderful thing!
Of course, Lucas didn't know these things. In his eyes, a song that could be sold well cannot be written by anyone?
It is true that Liu Lang is a genius, but how could he have such great confidence?
At this time, Lin Guodong, who was standing beside him, spoke.
"George, I don't understand the songs, but today Mr. Liu's singing at the Los Angeles Fire Department was very exciting. I heard that everyone was fascinated by it. I can't compare to the songs I watch on TV every day. If this single is
It should be no problem to participate in the award evaluation. As for the gold medal of Grammys, it is almost no problem... Mr. Liu is not something that we can compare with!"
"Well, that's right, we've experienced Mr. Liu's singing voice, and this is just a song he wrote in just half a day. If he spends more effort quietly, the song he wrote may be better!"
Sun Mingren echoed.
Liu Lang told everyone that he wanted to do record business some time ago. At that time, no one except Sun Mingren took it seriously. Even Lin Guodong didn't take it in his heart. He thought that Liu Lang was just talking, at least not in a short time.
