In the courtyard of No. 5 Maoer Hutong, Cui Jian looked at Wu Jianye with excitement, and so did the brother next to him!
Wu Jianye looked at the wicker chair that had just been touched because Cui Jian stood up excitedly, and said helplessly: "Are you so excited?"
Cui Jian laughed loudly and said: "Teacher Wu, you don't know whose songs our generation listened to and learned rock and roll. If they can really come, thank you so much!"
After Wu Jianye came back from London, he met Cui Jian and his brother in Courtyard 5, and told them that he had invited Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, and Michael Jackson to attend the Strawberry Festival that was going to be held in China.
music Festival.
That’s why the scene just happened!
"Okay, just finish the Strawberry Music Festival. How are the preparations going now?" Wu Jianye asked Cui Jian and his brother.
The excited expression on the old man's face has not faded yet, and he smiled and said: "The stage has been set up and the sound equipment has been shipped. Don't worry this time!"
The Strawberry Music Festival was held in a suburb of Changping. Wu Jianye had visited it once before and was very satisfied with the place they were able to find. It has beautiful scenery and a large space, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
present at the same time.
"Are all the procedures complete?" Wu Jianye continued to ask. When preparing for the Strawberry Music Festival, Wu Jianye only made plans and prepared equipment for them, but other details were all handled by my brother.
Waiting for someone to do it themselves.
"It's all ready. Now it can be said that everything is ready and all we need is the east wind!" the old man said excitedly.
"Well, you should make preparations first, and then decide on the singers and bands that will participate in the music festival. By the way, in addition to the domestic bands and singers, you will also leave me two guest performance seats." Wu Jianye said.
Cui Jian asked expectantly: "Who else?"
Wu Jianye, who had already contacted Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, and Michael Jackson, gave Cui Jian a huge surprise. Now that he heard that Wu Jianye also asked for two guest performance seats, he was naturally even more excited.
Looking forward to it.
"Zhang Guoyi and Anita Mui in Xiangjiang!" Wu Jianye had already promised these two people when they were in Xiangjiang before, so naturally two seats for performing guests had to be prepared for them this time.
Cui Jian has naturally heard of Zhang Guoyi and Anita Mui, but Cui Jian is not as excited about them as Bob Dylan and others before. He even asked with some worry: "Their style can be compared with our Strawberry Music"
Fusion?"
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Don't worry, their arrival can attract more viewers to pay attention to the Strawberry Music Festival. Generally speaking, it is very helpful to the Strawberry Music Festival!"
When Cui Jian saw Wu Jianye saying this, he naturally had no objection, "Okay, I understand!"
"At the same time, when the Strawberry Music Festival is held, security work must also be done well, and this is also the most important point. If something happens at that time, I think there will be no Strawberry Music Festival in the future!" Wu Jianye continued to warn.
road.
Judging from the current guest performers, the Strawberry Music Festival is destined to become the most sensational open-air music event in the country. There were tens of thousands of people at the scene. If the security work was not done in place, there was a high possibility of a trampling incident. That would really be
A good thing turned bad!
The old man nodded and said, "We will pay special attention to this!"
They also know how important this event is to the Strawberry Music Festival!
After the two sides discussed many details, Wu Jianye personally visited some leaders of relevant departments and explained that Michael Jackson, Bob Dylan, and Paul McCartney would come to Yanjing to attend the Strawberry Festival.
Music festival thing.
Don't underestimate this matter. A few years ago, Michael Jackson had intended to hold a concert in China, but the country was still worried that it would cause a huge sensation and be difficult to control, so it canceled it. Now it's not just Michael Jackson,
Add to that Bob Dylan and Paul McCartney, as well as Zhang Guoyi and Anita Mui from Hong Kong, and the sensation caused by such a scene is naturally self-evident.
The leaders of the relevant departments were also shocked when they heard what Wu Jianye said.
"Did they really promise to come?"
"That's right, it's been discussed!"
Seeing Wu Jianye's affirmative answer, the first solution that the leaders of the relevant departments thought of was, can they be told not to come?
Wu Jianye was a little speechless. He had finished all the preliminary preparations, but he actually said that they would not be allowed to come. How could this be allowed? Wu Jianye had to argue with reason. If he were an ordinary person, he would probably be punished.
They were kicked out, who knew it was Wu Jianye!
In the end, Wu Jianye still gave countless guarantees before he obtained the consent of the relevant departments and leaders.
Wu Jianye then persuaded the city bureau to send police to maintain the security of the Strawberry Music Festival. Although Brother, Cui Jian and others also contacted, it was only the police force from the branch, so Wu Jianye was still a little worried!
After dealing with these matters, Wu Jianye had time to take a good rest.
At this time, news about the Strawberry Music Festival also began to appear in newspapers, and it quickly spread to various cities in the country.
"Strawberry Music Festival?"
"Holy shit, Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney?"
"What? Michael Jackson is coming too?"
"Buy a ticket, buy a ticket, buy a ticket quickly and go to Yanjing!"
In the past two days, you can see young people carrying guitars on their backs at train stations in various cities. They walk into the waiting rooms in groups. They are all going to Yanjing to prepare for pilgrimage!
This music festival includes domestic Cui Jian, Tang Dynasty, Compass, He Yong, Zhang Chu, Dou Laoxian and others, as well as beyond, Zhang Guoyi, Anita Mui from Xiangjiang, as well as overseas Bob Dylan, Paul
McCartney and Michael Jackson are participating, and the Strawberry Music Festival has also released news that Wu Jianye will also appear at this music festival.
This is not a pilgrimage!
Countless young people packed up their beloved guitars and came to Yanjing. Even though the Strawberry Music Festival had not officially started yet, at the venue of the Strawberry Music Festival, a large number of spectators had already gathered. They were sitting on the ground, chatting with each other.
around, playing the guitar and singing.
Wu Jianye also learned the news on the phone.
Wu Jianye was still very satisfied with this response.
At least the excitement in the early stage has already risen, and judging from the current situation, everyone is relatively calm. Of course, you still need to be on high alert for what it will be like on the day.
Wu Jian spent the night hiding in the Xishan Villa, while Cui Jian and his brother were extremely troubled during this time.
Because the two of them are directly responsible for the Strawberry Music Festival, those who want to participate in the Strawberry Music Festival will naturally come to them. They have to find a few suitable bands and singers among the thousands of applications.
Listening to the tapes they sent was almost a torture for Cui Jian and his brother!
Cui Jian took the lead in giving up his choice.
"I was originally doing the job of charging into battles, but now I have become a political commissar. I can't survive this life. You can find someone to do it yourself. I will withdraw first!" After saying this, Cui Jian left directly.
The old man smiled and did not stop Cui Jian from leaving. As an old friend, he naturally knew how Cui Jian spent this time.
If this incident did not have a positive impact on domestic rock music, Cui Jian would not participate at all. In fact, Cui Jian has never placed himself in the position of the leader of Chinese rock music. He prefers pure
to make their own music.
The reason why Cui Jian has to take on all this now is because the only one in the Chinese rock circle who can directly talk to Wu Jianye is Cui Jian, and Cui Jian can only bite the bullet and do all this.
But now, when everything has been settled, there are actually dedicated people responsible for the organization of this Strawberry Music Festival. Cui Jian and others just hope to do a better job.
But when everyone recruited Cui Jian, Cui Jian seemed a little impatient. As he said, he preferred to enjoy the process of making music instead of being responsible for these messy things.
So after listening to dozens of uneven songs, Cui Jian broke out.
Afterwards, when everyone gathered for dinner, the old man once laughed and joked: "To be honest, Old Cui lasted longer than I thought!"
Everyone laughed.
Cui Jian went back to practice singing, and the rest of the work had to be completed by his brother and others.
After Wu Jianye learned about this incident, he also said nothing. He just called Cui Jian and asked him to practice singing well. If he didn't want to do anything else, he wouldn't do it!
While he was busy with the Strawberry Music Festival, Wu Jianye went to Tangting Culture again to check on the post-production status of the movie "Eternal Night".
The first thing we went to was the special effects. The movie "Eternal Night" has very strict requirements for special effects, and it is completely a world-class production.
Wu Jianye originally thought that the people at Tangting Special Effects would be very distressed due to the huge workload, but he never expected that when he came to Tangting Special Effects, he found that everyone here was as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
of excitement.
Everyone is completing their work seriously, and from time to time they will exchange a few words loudly.
Liang Zhengting and Huang Zilu told Wu Jianye that the first reason why everyone did this was that as the first domestic film to focus on special effects, these people can be said to be the originators of domestic special effects, so they naturally have such a sense of honor.
.
I also want to use my own abilities to raise the level of special effects in China!
At the same time, the benefits of special effects in Tangting are also the best. In order to allow these people to concentrate on doing special effects, various benefits come one after another, taking care of almost every detail of their lives.
For example, on food!
Tangting Special Effects specially opened a floor as the company's canteen, which has a variety of food, including breakfast, lunch and dinner. If you work overtime at night, there are also late night snacks.
The canteen is set up in a self-service format, with dishes from all over the world, taking care of the taste of every employee.
At the same time, if they work overtime at night, the company has specially opened several rooms for them to rest at night.
Such considerate service naturally moved these otakus in the 1990s!
After hearing this, Wu Jianye was very satisfied and said with a smile: "This is good. If there is a problem with the company's funds, you can report it to me at any time!"
After listening to this, Liang Zhengting smiled and said: "Don't worry, the company is now very well funded. If necessary, I will come to you!"
Again, the domestic special effects movies have not yet started, and the entire special effects have to be supported by Wu Jianye. The speed of burning money, if word spreads, it will probably cause some controversy.
Wu Jianye sat in Liang Zhengting's office, looking at the special effects for the movie they had made, and he was very satisfied. Compared with the first time he saw it, there was some improvement, which can be regarded as a kind of progress!
After observing the special effects in Tangting, Wu Jianye went to the editing room to check the editing of the movie. In fact, since the special effects of the movie have not been completed yet, the editing here has to follow the progress of the special effects company.
But even so, half of the process has been completed at this time.
After Wu Jianye finished watching it, he nodded and said: "Overall, it's pretty good. Everyone has worked hard during this period. When the movie is released, I will give you a big red envelope!"
After hearing this, the people in charge of editing thanked Wu Jianye one after another.
Finally, Wu Jianye met Huang Jianxin.
"When are you going to leave?" Wu Jianye asked.
Huang Jianxin's "Back to Back Face to Face" has been approved and will be filming down there in the next two days.
"I'll leave after finishing the arrangement of the movie "Eternal Night"!" Huang Jianxin said with a smile.
As the release time approaches, the filming schedule of "Eternal Night" has also been put on the schedule of Fengge Cinema. Naturally, this time the release of "Eternal Night" will not be 100% like "The World of Chu Xing" at the beginning.
The film schedule is up, and with Fengge Cinemas cooperating with many studios and film companies, their films will definitely have to be taken into consideration.
But no matter what, when the movie "Eternal Night" is released, it will definitely occupy an absolute filming rate.
Even so, the movie "Eternal Night" will not be released on fewer screens than the original "The World of Chu Xing".
Because Landmark has begun operations in several major cities in China, and the Fengge Cinema in Landmark has naturally also begun operations.
At the same time, Fengge Cinema was also expanding during this period. These conditions allowed the number of screens in Fengge Cinema to increase again.
Moreover, the movie "Eternal Night" will not only be screened online at Fengge Cinema, but will also be screened online at China Film Academy, which will open at the end of this year!
These are things that the original "Chu Xing's World" did not have!
Wu Jianye was very satisfied after hearing this and said with a smile: "Then I'll leave this matter to you!"
Huang Jianxin smiled and said: "It's no trouble, I've long been used to this kind of thing!"
