This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime - #484 - Chapter 481: 479One theme and one song? Buy The Matrix Edition

 This year’s Spring Festival Gala officially starts at seven o’clock!

In order to prevent Wang Cheng from working overtime, a one-hour period from seven to eight o’clock was dedicated to Wang Cheng’s performance.

Moreover, during this time period, it is only CCTV’s own live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala, and other local TV stations will not broadcast it. Therefore, there is no mandatory bonus for the ratings, and it all depends on CCTV’s own capabilities.

but…

  Everyone has absolute trust in Wang Cheng’s ratings.

so!

Even though this time period is a preview of the Spring Festival Gala and is not broadcast by local stations, it has attracted the willingness of almost all celebrity artists to join.

 It’s just that the time is only one hour, so it’s impossible to include everyone.

Therefore, Xie Xingfeng’s program team could only shortlist the four people who were bundled with Wang Cheng: Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, and An Keru, and then Zhang Hanwen, Wang Cheng’s friend. There are already five people, and with Wang Cheng, there are six!

There is only one hour, and only ten people can perform at most, so the final four candidates were selected from all the big names!

Three powerful singers, one actor with strong acting skills and recognized singing skills!

 Among the three singers, there is Du Wei, this year’s new superstar, and two other top-tier veteran singers Wei Hong and Sun Li, two top-tier singers who became popular across the country twenty years ago.

The actor is Li Youhua, an older-generation actor who graduated from Chinese Opera. He is fifty years old and is still extremely dedicated. He has also sung the theme songs of many film and television dramas in which he has appeared, and his singing skills have been recognized by the industry.

the next day!

 These guys were all called to the recording studio by Xie Xingfeng and Qin Shangran.

 Wei Hong, Sun Li, and Li Youhua all arrived early as usual and arrived at their destination on time at eight o’clock. They saw Du Wei, Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, An Keru and others also there.

 “Hi, morning you guys!”

 Li Youhua, the oldest, was the first to say hello cheerfully. Looking at the younger generation who all have good looks and temperament, he felt that he was getting old.

　Du Wei and others responded one after another.

 “Good morning, Uncle Hua, good morning, Brother Hong, good morning, Sister Li…”

 …

　　 Say hello.

Sun Li looked at the time: “Wang Cheng didn’t arrive until nine o’clock?”

Neither Wei Hong nor Li Youhua said anything, because almost everyone in the circle knew Wang Cheng’s schedule, and even many fans and passers-by outside the circle knew about it.

 But, Sun Li was still curious.

 Even CCTV is really so used to Wang Cheng’s work and rest habits?

An Keru was familiar with the three of them and said with a smile: “Sister Li, Wang Cheng has his own schedule, and he goes to work on time! He will be there in a moment.”

Wei Hong didn’t worry about this. He had already been mentally prepared to join here. He just asked curiously: “I heard that Wang Cheng prepared a chorus song for us. What song is it?”

 An Keru: “I don’t know!”

Li Youhua’s heart moved. He looked at An Keru and asked, “Keru, you participated in Wang Cheng’s movie and it was completed in three months. How did it feel?”

 Li Youhua also has a movie released during the Spring Festival. Although he is not the leading role, he can be regarded as the first supporting role. It is the film in which he has the most roles in the past two years, so he is looking forward to it.

However, a movie produced by Wang Cheng in just three months took away the most screens during the Spring Festival and the largest traffic. This made Li Youhua feel a little uncomfortable. He felt that Wang Cheng’s movie must be Misorganized.

He has been in the industry for thirty years and has seen many movies that were produced in two or three months. Without exception, they were all money laundering bad movies.

An Keru smiled and said: “Uncle Hua, I can’t reveal too much for the time being. But I can guarantee that this movie will definitely shock and surprise everyone! I am the heroine of the movie, and I know best. You have known me for many years Now, you know I never lie.”

Li Youhua nodded, still doubtful in his heart.

He believed in An Keru’s character and indeed never lied, but it made him believe that Wang Cheng, who was only nineteen years old and was directing and acting in a movie for the first time, could produce a good science fiction movie in three months. Very difficult!

The people present were all the big names in the industry, chatting with each other.

“Du Wei, Wen Yixiao, your new songs this year are so powerful. Especially Wen Yixiao, the new song you released last month sold over 100 million in a week and over 200 million in a month. This is almost pushing us old people to death.” died.”

Wei Hong said jokingly.

Wen Yixiao smiled but said nothing, unable to let go.

Du Wei smiled and said: “Then you haven’t met Wang Cheng, and that’s why you’re killing me. You can’t handle sales exceeding 100 million in a week, but sales can exceed 100 million in one day. Can you handle it?”

Wei Hong smiled, feeling a lot of pressure in his heart!

He has become active in releasing songs in the past two months. The sales of his two new songs have exceeded 30 million in a single month, and his monthly sales have exceeded 80 million.

 But, on Wen Yixiao and Du Wei’s side, it’s nothing.

Thinking of the even more terrifying Wang Cheng who is about to release a song, Wei Hong is considering postponing the new song that will be released in a month. He will wait until Wang Cheng’s performance at the Spring Festival Gala is over and the new song will be released and then see how it goes.

　　When several people are chatting.

 Xie Xingfeng and Qin Shangran also arrived with people from the program team.

A few minutes later, Wang Cheng came over with his assistant Xia Xi.

 “Wang Cheng is here!”

 “Wang Cheng…”

Wen Yixiao, Han Xiao, Zhang Hanwen, An Keru, and Zhu Ziqi all greeted Wang Cheng.

 Wei Hong, Sun Li, and Li Youhua also greeted Wang Cheng respectively.

but…

 They were all ignored by Wang Cheng.

Working hours.

Wang Cheng didn’t want to waste time, so he handed a piece of paper to Xie Xingfeng directly: “Copy ten copies, one for each person. Let’s practice this chorus today.”

Xie Xingfeng quickly took it and turned towards the copier. He lowered his head and looked at it carefully. Qin Shangran followed quickly and whispered: “Copy twenty copies!”

 Xie Xingfeng hummed.

Wei Hong, Sun Li, and Li Youhua all looked a bit ugly. They were truly powerful veterans in the industry. They could not be ignored wherever they went, let alone greet them actively and still be ignored.

Even though they had known for a long time that Wang Cheng was difficult to get along with and might be ignored, when they actually met him, they still couldn’t accept it.

Wang Cheng didn’t care about their expressions, but handed a piece of paper to Wen Yixiao: “Take a good look at it. When the time comes, come on stage and sing this song with me!”

Wen Yixiao’s eyes were full of surprise, and he stretched out his hands to take the piece of paper: “Okay, thank you, Wang Cheng!”

Wang Cheng didn’t pay attention to Wen Yixiao’s gratitude. In his opinion, this was just work.

 Xie Xingfeng distributed the copied paper to everyone, with a smile that couldn’t be hidden in his eyes. He had just taken a cursory look at this piece of work, and based on his knowledge, he was sure that this song would definitely become a hit.

Others took the paper and began to read it.

At this time, Wang Cheng handed three pieces of paper to Xie Xingfeng again: “Make these three pieces of music and give them to me.”

 Three pieces of music?

Three more songs?

 Everyone was stunned for a moment.

 They thought that Wang Cheng had composed two songs, and when the time came to perform, they would mainly sing old songs that had been released before.

did not expect…

Wang Cheng also has three songs. With these two songs, he has composed five songs in total?

 But, how long has it been?

Xie Xingfeng asked in astonishment: “Three new songs again?”

Wang Cheng nodded: “Well! Didn’t you say friendship, family affection, love, blessing tomorrow, and praising lovely people?”

 Xie Xingfeng and Qin Shangran were immediately speechless…

 They never dreamed…

Wang Cheng actually created a work for each theme?

 Wei Hong, Sun Li, Li Youhua, Du Wei and others also widened their eyes in shock.

They all knew that Wang Cheng had just come over from filming a movie, so he had no time to compose before. In other words, in just one day, Wang Cheng composed a new song for each theme of the Spring Festival Gala!

 This speed…

 It’s really better to see it than to hear it a hundred times!

 Wei Hong, Sun Li, and Li Youhua, who were meeting Wang Cheng for the first time, all their dissatisfaction with Wang Cheng were overshadowed by shock. They looked down at the paper in their hands again, and they were extremely serious!

Wang Cheng didn’t pay attention to everyone’s shock and said directly: “Let’s start quickly! There are still more than ten days, which is more than enough.”

 You have to work hard during working hours.

 Everyone immediately studied the works in their hands seriously.

 In Wang Cheng’s opinion, ten days is more than enough time. However, for the program team and several other participating celebrity artists, it was very nervous.

 Because, they want to ensure that there is no mistake at all.

 …

　　Magic City!

Shen Shenghui, who had just returned, was called to a screening room by Qin Yuhai. In the screening room were Qin Mo, Su Hailong, and two producers responsible for film production from Rubik’s Cube Entertainment!

 “Is it Wang Cheng’s movie?”

 Shen Shenghui asked curiously.

Qin Yuhai nodded seriously: “Well! He came over last night and asked me to take a look at Wang Cheng’s movie in advance, so I invited you to come together and see how it goes. Both Qin Mo and deputy director Su Hailong are very confident.”

 Shen Shenghui hummed and said nothing.

 His mood is contradictory.

On the one hand, he has seen too many of Wang Cheng’s magic and invincibility, so he has some belief that Wang Cheng may continue to be magical in the film field.

On the other hand, the objective facts of reality let him know that it was impossible for Wang Cheng, a nineteen-year-old with no production or performance experience, to make a good movie.

Especially, the sci-fi film field that Chinese films are least good at!

Qin Yuhai and the other two producers of Rubik’s Cube Entertainment have almost the same sentiment, but they don’t believe more.

Qin Mo whispered: “You will know after reading it!”

 Having said that, the movie officially starts playing!

 Qin Yuhai, Shen Shenghui and the two producers also watched it very seriously.

 The film is a little over two hours long!

 The whole journey…

 No one said a word!

 Shen Shenghui, Qin Yuhai, and the two producers were staring at the screen with their eyes wide open almost from the beginning, and their hearts were in shock…

 All the way to the end!

 Look at the credits subtitles that appear at the end of the film.

 Starring, Wang Cheng!

　Director, Wang Cheng!

 Screenwriter, Wang Cheng!

 Editor, Wang Cheng!

 Soundtrack, Wang Cheng!

That long list of Wang Cheng is extremely dazzling.

However, what excited and shocked them even more was the content of the movie they had just watched for two hours.

　　Until the end of the subtitles.

Qin Mo looked at the silent Qin Yuhai and Shen Shenghui and said with a smile: “Mr. Qin, Director Shen, how are you doing?”

Qin Mo looked businesslike, his face full of pride.

As a producer who watched the whole process of making the film, she had almost the same reaction when she saw the finished film for the first time.

She never imagined that this movie would be so shocking when it was finally produced by Wang Cheng.

 It can be said that it is almost a high-energy performance, and there is not even a second of peeing…

 Not even a second to blink.

Even when I blink, I worry that I will miss the key plot.

 The shocking scenes are still replaying in her heart to this day.

 Qin Yuhai and Shen Shenghui both leaned on their chairs and remained silent for a while, unable to answer Qin Mo’s words.

Qin Mo could see their mood, and he smiled even more proudly: “Isn’t it shocking? This is the most shocking science fiction movie I have ever seen in my life. It is more shocking than Hollywood science fiction movies, or am I Made it myself.”

 The two producers nodded in agreement at the same time.

“Indeed, this movie is definitely one of the most exciting science fiction movies. The special effects are not inferior to Hollywood science fiction blockbusters, and it also has a philosophical thinking core that Hollywood science fiction blockbusters do not have.”

“I still can’t believe that this movie was made by Wang Cheng?”

The two producers are still in disbelief.

Qin Yuhai also gradually came back to his senses, looked at Shen Shenghui, and the first thing he said was: “Can I withdraw Wang Cheng’s contract?”

Shen Shenghui knew that this was definitely what Qin Yuhai regretted most at this time.

However, he could only smile bitterly and said: “Mr. Qin, Wang Cheng is not that easy to fool. He has a copy of the contract. It is impossible for us to cancel the breach of contract! To cancel the breach of contract, we will pay ten times the profit. The profit of this movie is absolutely extraordinary. We can’t afford to pay ten times.”

He knew, and Qin Yuhai also saw it, that this movie would definitely become a hit, and it would also become a big copyrighted IP, and a lot of money could be made from a few sequels.

This is the most lacking IP in the history of the entire Chinese film industry!

Hollywood’s classic movies can produce seven or eight sequels, and some companies can even survive by just making sequels to one movie!

 However, there has never been such a classic series in the Chinese film industry, and it is extremely rare to have three films.

As for the Matrix filmed by Wang Cheng, everyone present can see that it can definitely become a series. As long as the quality and quantity are maintained, the entire series can become a hit and become one of the foundations of Rubik’s Cube Entertainment’s unshakable existence.

but…

Qin Yuhai gave all the proceeds and copyright from this movie to Wang Cheng.

boom…

 Qin Yuhai threw the cup at hand, feeling annoyed and asked in a deep voice: “Is it too late to cut the screen now?”

 Qin Yuhai still has a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that the box office will not be so explosive. He wants to buy the copyright back from Wang Cheng.

However, Shen Shenghui shook his head and said: “We have signed a release contract with the theater chain. Before the box office comes out, we can’t adjust the number of screens in the theater chain. Moreover, when the box office comes out, I predict that the number of screens will only increase. It won’t decrease…”

boom!

Qin Yuhai slapped the chair again and didn’t want to speak for a while.

Qin Mo was more open-minded and said in a low voice: “Uncle, in my opinion, Wang Cheng will not hold on to the film rights when the time comes. You can just go and bid normally.”

Qin Yuhai’s eyes lit up and he looked at Qin Mo: “Is there really a chance?”

Qin Mo: “I think there is a chance!”

Qin Yuhai: “Okay, then I’ll leave this matter to you.”

Forehead…

 Qin Mo was speechless.

 She doesn’t want to take on this matter.

but!

She felt excited when she thought that this movie would definitely be a hit when it was released.

  She also wants to take the copyright of this film into her own hands, so that she can continue to be the producer of this film in the future, and rely on the popularity of this series of films to achieve great success in the field of producer!

 “Okay, I’ll give it a try, but I’m not sure whether it will succeed!”

Qin Mo agreed, but didn’t dare to confirm it.

 Assistant director Su Hailong has been watching quietly, without speaking or participating, just as a spectator.

However, he also hopes that this movie can be made into a series. He can see that Wang Cheng is not that interested in making movies. If Wang Cheng does not continue to direct in the future, he has the greatest chance of becoming the director of the sequel of this movie. .

 …

Magic Cube Entertainment’s promotion of Wang Cheng’s The Matrix continues.

CCTV is also conducting large-scale publicity for this year’s Spring Festival Gala. News about Wang Cheng’s new song will be released every day to create hype, attracting a lot of attention and enthusiasm.

 Many people are looking forward to it and participate in discussions every day.

in this way!

time flies.

 Half a month passed by again.

 This year’s Spring Festival Gala performances are about to begin.

 The Spring Festival is about to begin!
