Chapter Thirty-Three No New Means
Chapter 33: Nothing new
The Chinese Rookie Singing Contest, a talent show despised by Zhang Yi, has always had ratings that barely exploded during the finals, and the audience mostly remembers who the winner is and directly filters out the rest.
Judging from the past life, the first champion Anita Mui became famous, but later she became very popular, but it had nothing to do with the singing competition. The second champion Lu Fang could only be regarded as barely popular. As for the third
The current champion Zhang Weijian was even more miserable. No one cared about winning the championship, and in the end he was not allowed to sing in the karaoke hall.
Therefore, Zhang Yi despises him, and he is not wronged. After all, Zhang Yi knows the "super girl" and the "good voice" of future generations. In Zhang Yi's opinion, that is called a talent show!
After Fatty Wang finished filming the sequel to "Baby, Smart Stars", he became very involved in the issue of "sponsorship fees" for advertising for Zhang Yi and Laura Zhang. For this, Fatty Wang was very enthusiastic. In addition to picking up girls, he made money in movies.
Therefore, in his eyes, there is no question of art or not.
Product placement was such a new and promising thing. As soon as he heard Zhang Yi talk about it, his interest was aroused, and he was determined to learn this trick for future use.
Fatty Wang finally made the movie "Baby, Smart Stars", which topped the box office charts, and his fame skyrocketed. Fame, this thing is a damn good thing. With the help of his fame, many businesses were fooled by Fatty Wang.
After seeing Xu Guanwen's incident, Zhang Yi had obviously realized that he was no longer a fool, so he gave Fatty some suggestions and ideas, then acted as a hands-off shopkeeper and let Fatty Wang handle everything.
Of course, there are also some reminders: Don't tell those guys how much the investment in the movie is. If asked, just avoid it and let the box office tell the story.
Let the box office speak for itself, this is Zhang Yi's effective method, there is nothing new.
After the rematch of the singing competition, Zhang Yi and Zhou Huimin still gained some popularity. At least in school, they became celebrities. When they appeared on TV, they were awesome.
Zhang Yi's peaceful life was shattered, and Ming Pao and ATV continued to press for manuscripts, so Zhang Yi took leave and stayed at home.
"Ayi! Ayi!"
"Bang!"
Zhang Yizheng was writing "Looking for Qin Ji" desperately in his room, missing the days when he had computers in his heart, when he heard someone shouting outside the house, and then the door was knocked open.
Zhang Yi looked up and saw Fatty Wang with an excited look on his face. He was hesitant to speak to himself. Of course, many of them were shy and hesitant, but he was excited and a little out of breath, so he couldn't speak.
"Fat man, I remind you once again that as a man, you need to be calm!" Zhang Yi said helplessly, "If you don't remain calm next time, I will make your balls ache!"
"Oh!" Fatty Wang calmed down a lot after hearing this. He looked around Zhang Yi's room and then sighed, "Ayi, you have quite a lot of books. I remember that there are a lot of books in the study room of your villa over there.
It’s full, I didn’t expect there to be so many in the room here! Huh? What are you writing again, Ayi?”
"Novel!" Zhang Yi frowned and said, "Isn't this what you came here to talk about in such a hurry?"
"Oh! Of course not!" Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang became excited again and said, "Ayi, how many sponsorships do you think my dealers have gotten?"
"How much?" Zhang Yi looked at Fatty Wang and saw that his face was full of excitement, and he was obviously very excited.
"As few as a few thousand, as many as tens of thousands!" Fatty Wang said excitedly.
When Zhang Yi heard this, his heart froze. Thousands? Tens of thousands? How many can it add up to? After all, it is impossible to implant too many. If Zhang Yi had not made some changes in the script, it would be even less. For example, at the beginning of the movie,
When Tang Xiaolian took stock of the goods, she read it out directly. It was not in the original version.
"On this point, you are still so excited and have no future!" Zhang Yi said coldly.
"Ah! Oh, I didn't make it clear. These are just initial investments, which add up to 100,000 yuan!" Fatty Wang said immediately, "Didn't you tell me before that the box office will speak for itself? These are already obtained, no matter what
How about the box office? We saved at least 100,000 yuan. And everything sold in the supermarket is sponsored by them. And if the box office exceeds 10 million, they will add more. If the box office exceeds 20 million, I calculated it to be close to 100 yuan.
Ten thousand. If the box office exceeds 30 million, hehe, it will be no less than 1.5 million. If the box office exceeds 40 million, their sponsorship is estimated to be 3 million!"
After Zhang Yi heard this, he was not as excited as Fatty Wang. It was rumored that when Director Feng filmed "Tangshan Earthquake", he collected over 20 million in advertising fees.
Of course, it is impossible for Zhang Yi to compare with Director Feng at that time, and it is impossible for Fatty Wang to compare with Director Feng at that time. After all, that also requires a process of accumulation. What's more, advertising placement, now for those who
As far as the merchants are concerned, it is just an attempt. To be able to get so much, Fatty Wang's reputation played a big role. In addition, it is probably the box office that matters.
Those businessmen are not fools. The box office is not 40 million, but even 30 million. It is estimated that more than half of the people in Hong Kong have watched this movie. This is much more cost-effective than advertising on TV.
Looking at Fatty Wang's look, Zhang Yi suddenly asked: Was it right or wrong for Huayi to create this advertising placement? So he reminded: "Fat man, let me remind you in advance that advertising placements cannot affect the movie itself.
Otherwise, the gains outweigh the losses!”
Fatty Wang suddenly calmed down when he saw Zhang Yi taking matters seriously, and then nodded and said, "I will pay attention to this!"
"What novel is A Yi writing now? I was busy filming some time ago, so I didn't pay much attention to it." Fatty Wang looked at Zhang Yi's desk and said immediately.
""Looking for Qin Ji" is also serialized in "Ming Pao"." Zhang Yi said casually.
"What! "Looking for Qin Ji"! "Looking for Qin Ji" was written by you?" Fatty Wang just asked casually. He really didn't have much interest in the two works that Zhang Yi had serialized in "Ming Pao". He was originally
I thought that Zhang Yi's new work would be similar, but I didn't expect that it would actually be "Looking for Qin".
Regarding "Looking for Qin", Fatty Wang didn't read it in the newspaper, but heard it from his father Wang Tianling.
ATV started filming "The Legend of Qin" to get rid of the pressure caused by "The Condor", and also used this as a counterattack to reverse the ratings. Naturally, it attracted the attention of TVB executives.
Fatty Wang knew that his father was very afraid of this, and he also heard that the novel was very popular, but because he was busy and not very interested in TV, he didn't get to read it.
I didn't expect that this novel was actually written by Zhang Yi. Maybe my father and TVB executives didn't know that the Zhang Yi who wrote the novel was the same Zhang Yi who wrote the script.
Fatty Wang knew that the Zhang Yi who wrote the novel was the same Zhang Yi who wrote the script, but he didn't know that the Zhang Yi who went to TVB to participate in the singing competition was the same Zhang Yi who wrote the novel and the script.
It’s no wonder that Fatty Wang and the others, after all, no one can imagine that it is the same person who has achieved such achievements in three fields at the same time, and he is still a 16-year-old boy who is in the fifth grade of middle school!
Of course, Zhang Yi's own low profile also played a role in this. Zhang Yi is not a person who likes to show off, not to mention that in his opinion, those things are not worth showing off at all.
Zhang Yizhi came back from time travel and is still a little confused. He has no ambitions and can't even say he has any dreams. He has never thought about becoming a big star and shining in the world. He has never thought about becoming a bullshit tycoon. He counts money until his hands cramp and he falls asleep.
I slept until I woke up naturally. I never thought about building a big ** to house all kinds of beauties.
What do you do, it's a bit random, it seems just based on your preference. If you think of it, just do it, regardless of success or failure? Success is gratifying, but failure is not a big deal. It seems to be a playful mentality.
Maybe Zhang Yi has no sense of belonging to this era, nor any sense of responsibility. He also doesn’t have much sense of existence, so the first song Zhang Yi sang in the singing competition was "Existence"!
Although I have found a trace of responsibility from "Existence", I don't want to watch the decline of the upright and glorious Xiangjiang Film. But it is just "do your best and obey fate". It seems that you are working hard and don't care about the result. To put it bluntly
Yes, there is no intention.
Zhang Yi actually didn't realize at this time that his mentality was a bit "easy to be rich"! Of course, this mentality will slowly change as time goes by, but this is a story for another day, let's not mention it for now.
Chapter completed!
