258 Leaderboard Changes and the Talented Zhou Gongzi(1/2)
Just when Ye Fan was on his way to the crew of "Daming Palace Ci", Ye Fan also received a call from Zhang Xing and learned that there had been another change in the Taiwan Province Golden Songs Chart.
In the fifth week of winter on the Dragon and Tiger List, "Holding Hands" topped the list, "Pacific" fell to second place, "Light Chaser" fell to fourth place, and "Forward" rushed to third place.
When Ye Fan heard the news, he sneered. Xu Huaiyu didn't know, but Zhang Huimei definitely had a hand in the album sales.
Moreover, Wang Fei's "Singing Tour" is so popular that it is still behind in the list of releases on the 2nd. The same is true for Zhang Xueyou. It is difficult to say that there are no problems in the middle.
This made Ye Fan start to think about what English songs to choose to enter Europe and the United States next year, or whether he should let certain people's "dad" sanction them.
Last week, "Light Chaser" fell to the top of the Dragon and Tiger Chart, which was like the first domino falling. Some Hong Kong and Taiwan singers who had postponed the release of their albums have taken action.
Today alone, Lin Zixiang, Chen Xiaodong and Luo Wen have released their new albums, and other Hong Kong and Taiwan singers have also begun promoting their new albums and competing for their "prime time slots"!
Ye Fan is not in a hurry. After Infernal Affairs and "The Young Master" are released next year, he will most likely be able to release another album with the number of film and television soundtracks. The Chinese music scene will still be dominated by him.
Moreover, Jay Chou's new album is almost finished and is expected to be released by the end of the year or the beginning of the year. If Ye Fan doesn't show up by then, his younger brother will be able to knock many singers off their feet!
Now the Chinese music scene can no longer satisfy Ye Fan. He is already very famous in the Asian market and has a large fan base.
What's more, the East and Southeast Asian markets will also be opened up little by little with his film and television dramas and music soundtracks, so there is no need for him to waste any additional time.
Xu Zhiwei has already told him that as long as he can go to overseas concerts, or go to Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and other countries to do activities a few more times, his status as an Asian superstar will definitely be solid.
Therefore, Ye Fan is not worried about the Asian market at all, and his goal is directly towards the American music scene!
If he is popular in the United States, do countries like Japan and South Korea still need to worry?
Thinking of this, Ye Fan started thinking about which English song to choose in the car...
Beijing, a studio of Beijing Film Studio, where the crew of "Ci of Daming Palace" is filming.
"Ci of the Ming Dynasty" is a large-scale production jointly produced by Rong Xinda and CCTV. It was filmed in several locations, but the Beijing Film Studio is definitely the main filming location.
It is for this reason that Ye Fan considered starring, not just for the passionate scene with Chen Liang's family, otherwise he would have too many places to travel and he would be too busy.
When we arrived at the entrance of Beijing Film Studio, the guard saw the license plate and let us go. When we drove in, Ye Fan's bodyguard even said hello to the guard.
Ye Fan has been to Beijing Film Studio so many times, and the money he spent there can be called the father of Beijing Film Studio's financier.
Ye Fan's bodyguards are also very familiar with the doormen and security guards in the factory. It can be said that coming to Beijing Film Studio is like going home.
Moreover, Mr. Han said the same thing when he was bragging to Ye Fan, asking him to make Beijing Film Studio his home.
Of course Ye Fan wants to treat Beijing Film Studio as his own home. Who would have to spend money to film in their own home?
But every time the issue of money came up, Mr. Han didn't say that he wanted Ye Fan to take over the Beijing Film Studio. Instead, he said that it was all investors' money and there was no need to use it in vain.
This made Ye Fan couldn't help but lament that all the bosses in the world are of the same family. They say they make the company their own, but the employees are not willing to take the company as their own. They are really difficult to serve.
Ye Fanlai kept a low profile and did not let Li Shaohong hold any welcome ceremony to avoid others saying that he was trying to be a big name.
However, when they arrived at the set, Li Shaohong, his wife and Li Xiaowan were both present to welcome Ye Fan in person, which made Ye Fan quite satisfied with their attitude.
Are you kidding? 500,000 yuan can hire a star like Ye Fan to act in a drama or a supporting role. They have to pay a lot of attention, okay?
However, Ye Fan's low salary is a good thing for Wang Jinghua. She is also in the Beijing circle and is very familiar with Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan.
She used the reason of Ye Fan's low salary to help Shuang Bing win the roles of Young Wei and Princess Anle. However, they are still filming "Little Three" and joined the cast later than Ye Fan.
As for the role of Zhang Changzong, Wang Jinghua also helped Ren Quan get it. After all, Ye Fan is so handsome, and the actor who plays Zhang Changzong, Zhang Yizhi's younger brother, can't be too good-looking, right?
For this reason, Li Shaohong couldn't say anything. Who said they had already taken advantage of Ye Fan?
Moreover, Ye Fan knew that the filming of this drama would take a long time, so it didn't matter if Quan and the others arrived later, it wouldn't have much impact.
As for Hu Jing, who originally played the role of Young Webster, now that she has become famous all over the country and even in Asia, how can she still play the supporting role and role of Young Webster?
Even if she was willing to come, could Li Shaohong afford her the salary? Ye Fan would not let Hu Jing take the same reduced salary as he did.
Besides, if Hu Jing comes, how can Ye Fan film passionate scenes under her nose?
Speaking of Li Xiaowan, she can be regarded as the gold medal producer + agent in the Mainland.
Rong Xinda, founded by her and Li Shaohong, is a well-known film and television company in the early 21st century, producing many TV series such as "Ci of the Ming Dynasty", "Oranges Are Red", and "You Are April in the World".
Of course, there is also the later film "A Dream of Ghost Mansion"...
In their previous lives, Zhou Xun and Chen Kun became popular because they signed a contract with Rong Xinda.
However, due to the uneven distribution of internal resources in Rong Xinda, coupled with the changes in power in the film and television industry, Rong Xinda was unable to keep up with the general trend and became increasingly decadent, to the point that many of his good prospects terminated their contracts with him.
Including but not limited to Yang Mi, Yang Yang, Li Qin, Zhao Xiaodao and others who became popular in the future, they all left Rong Xinda and then became popular one after another.
Even after Zhou Gongzi and Chen Kun switched to Huayi, their careers have made great progress compared with Rong Xinda's period. Do you think this is metaphysics?
So later, a law emerged in the industry that "Rong Xinda's contract will be terminated". If a film and television + agency company has reached this point, it can be seen that Rong Xinda will decline in the future.
However, this is still the initial expansion period for Rong Xinda, and Li Xiaowan, who has just joined CCTV, is very ambitious.
Hu Jing and many other classmates from Class 96 had previously said that Li Xiaowan wanted to sign them, but Li Xiaowan did not sign any of them.
Even if Li Xiaowan hadn't known that Ye Fan had huge capital and energy, she would have dreamed of signing him. Unfortunately, Ye Fan was stronger than her and she simply couldn't realize her dream.
Ye Fan would not give anyone a chance. Working part-time was not as satisfying as being his own boss.
Hu Jing and the others have a big tree like Ye Fan by their side, and since they all have different degrees of fame after appearing in "Eighteen", their horizons are much higher.
They really look down on ordinary film and television companies. If it weren't for the fact that Ye Fan's company had so many artists, many people would have been shameless and begged Ye Fan to sign him.
Including Chen Kun, who was also intercepted by Ye Fan in advance, and Yang Mi and others, it is estimated that they will not go to Rongxinda in the future. It is estimated that Rongxinda's internal resources will be enough in the future.
In this way, when Prince Shen grows up, the resources can be used by him alone.
Ye Fan chatted with them for a while, then went to put on makeup...
Ye Fan came to the set and saw that the crew was filming the adult Princess Taiping, who was also Chen Hong's role, while Zhou Xun and Ren Quan, who played the teenage princess, were sitting nearby chatting.
"Sister Xun, long time no see."
Hearing the familiar voice, Zhou Xun looked back and saw that it was Ye Fan arriving. He said with surprise: "Oh, Xiao Fan, you are finally here!"
When Ren Quan saw Ye Fan, he stood up and said with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Ye."
This was not the first time that Ye Fan met Ren Quan. The two of them met frequently in the company. Ye Fan greeted him and started chatting with Zhou Xun.
Ren Quan was also sensible and knew that Ye Fan and Zhou Xun had old matters to talk about, so he immediately walked away. It was not a secret among the crew that Zhou Xun and Ye Fan knew each other.
Because not many people dare to call Ye Fan "Xiao Fan"!
"Now you are concentrating on the film and television industry? Aren't you planning on singing?"
Zhou Xun waved his hand and said: "Hey, I can't sing like you. Since I have some talent in acting, I might as well specialize in this area."
Ye Fan nodded. At this time, Zhou Xun's voice had begun to sound a bit smokey. Now that she was singing like this, without suitable songs, it would really be difficult for her to stand out.
Ye Fan smiled and said: "If you want to develop in the film and television industry, then why did you refuse me when I invited you to come to my company?"
Zhou Xun rolled his eyes and said, "Come on, your company didn't have many resources at that time, and the artists under Sister Hua didn't have enough points. Plus your little girlfriend, I couldn't join in the fun."
"Besides, Sister Xiaowan has been so kind to me and introduced me to so many resources. I can't let her down. Isn't it good to be like this now?"
Ye Fan sighed: "You are right, but unfortunately now that our company has developed, you have also signed a contract with Rong Xinda."
"Then if you encounter bottlenecks in the industry later, you can come to my company. There will definitely be no shortage of resources then."
Zhou Xun smiled heartily and said: "Then don't worry, I will be the first to call you if I really want to leave Rong Xinda."
Ye Fan smiled and nodded, and then chatted with Zhou Xun about other topics, such as her new relationship... Ye Fan is also a fancier.
The two chatted for a while, and Ye Fan heard Li Shaohong calling him, finally wanting to film his scene.
At the beginning, the scenes were mainly between him and Zhou Xun, the young Princess Taiping, and not yet with Chen Hong.
However, Ye Fan would not just wait. Before filming, he took the initiative to greet Gui Yalei and other leading actors. As a polite junior, it is still necessary to greet the seniors!
(Director Chen: “Bah!”)
Therefore, as one of the seniors, Chen Hong, Ye Fan will definitely not ignore it!
"Hello, Mr. Chen, please give me some advice when I act opposite you later."
Looking at Ye Fan with a bright smile and clear eyes, Chen Hong's mind couldn't help but trance.
After all, Ye Fan's appearance matched with his ancient costume, how handsome he was. When he greeted other people, everyone was amazed by his ancient costume.
Even the older Gui Yalei and Jani couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
He Lin, who played the role of He Lanshi, the wife of the State of Wei, although she hid it very well, her slightly shining eyes could not escape Ye Fan's notice.
Not to mention Ye Fan's senior sister Yang Yuting. The two had collaborated before in "Eighteen Years Old" and were old acquaintances. She even boldly gave Ye Fan a wink.
I have to say that Yang Yuting is very charming in person, and coupled with the deliberately charming expression, it is even more tempting.
If Ye Fan didn't want to go too far, it wouldn't be a bad idea to play games between men and women with her on the set of "Da Ming Gong Ci".
"Oh, hello, I've seen your play and your acting skills are great. You don't need any more advice from me."
After Chen Hong reacted, with a polite and polite smile, he shook hands with Ye Fan lightly and walked away.
After all, Director Chen is her husband, and their relationship makes it impossible for her to be passionate about Ye Fanduo.
However, Ye Fan's politeness made Chen Hong's first impression of him okay.
After all, whoever sees such a humble and polite Ye Fan for the first time would think that he is someone who dares to confront Director Chen?
