Chapter 37 The First Song in Pop History
Just the few minutes between the live broadcast and real time plus ten minutes of advertising time.
A massive press release appeared.
The first wave of press releases had relatively uniform content, "Little Queen An Lan's new movie 'Hello Mr. Tree' is a sincere work!"
The specific contents of everyone's manuscripts may be different, but the theme is almost the same.
This batch of manuscripts were produced by the first group of film critics and independent film critics who were invited to attend the film screening.
So it is not as dry as general press releases.
Generally speaking, a press release within the circle would cost only 600,000 or 700,000 yuan.
All mainstream online media will give an article, and most of them are reprinted.
But why would the press release from Universal China, Mailang and Tianle be like this?
The writing fee for the first batch of drafts alone amounted to one million.
Why choose this time period?
Because the first round of voting for "Superstar of Tomorrow" has ended and the votes will be counted soon, there will be a ten-minute commercial.
At this time, all parties must try their best to let the audience see the news and participate in the discussion.
Created a huge discussion.
In this way, this first round of press releases can be considered a success.
And these ten minutes are just a vanguard to attract some audiences to discuss.
When the first round of press releases reaches its peak, the competition will end.
By then, when a large number of excited fans and passers-by who have their own thoughts and ideas to express see the news, there will already be a lot of discussion in the news.
At this time, news that already has a basis for discussion will trigger their discussion and desire to speak.
Create greater discussion heat.
It naturally became a hot search.
You should know that this mode of operation is the most difficult and costly of all hot search modes.
but!
It represents real heat, because behavior can be guided, but it only guides the focus of heat, and there is no falsification.
The real popularity of this kind of hot search far exceeds that of purchased hot searches.
The traders are all veterans in the entertainment industry and are well versed in this field, so at this time, the press release began.
"Since An Lan debuted, every song she created has been a masterpiece. 'Inflammable and Explosive' topped the new song chart for more than two weeks, and was in the top ten of the hot song chart. It topped the chart in just three days. Although 'Psychopath's Song' was a joke, it was so difficult to sing that the queen Liu Yiling herself admitted that she couldn't perform it live within a week."
"When 'Missed by Lovers' became popular in the short video circle, many people didn't know An Lan. But when 'Persistence' came out, An Lan had already transformed from a newcomer who had just debuted to a little queen and future queen."
"Then 'Cloudy Day' continued the popularity of 'Easy to Explode' and 'Persistence', and all three songs were on the Hot Songs Chart at the same time. At the same time, the songs of two first-line singers who released albums during this period were suppressed, while An Lan's three songs were on the top five of the Hot Songs Chart at the same time."
"Interestingly, Han Zhou's "Sunny Day", who has collaborated closely with An Lan, and "Missed by Lovers", a song they sang together, also appeared in the top five. The top five of the hot songs list are occupied by An Lan alone."
In fact, the truth is that Han Zhou’s songs occupy the top five of the hot song list.
However, in this queen-crowned operation, it is impossible to let Han Zhou steal the limelight. Mentioning Han Zhou has an economic value of more than one million.
Han Zhou didn't really suffer any loss, it was more like he gained some popularity for free.
Currently, the two are still in the process of binding up for fame, and Liu Jianxi and others don't mind letting Han Zhou show up a few more times.
After introducing An Lan, the press release quickly turned to the evaluation of "Hello Mr. Tree".
"It's hard to imagine that such a rising star in the music industry, a future queen, would actually take on a rural-style movie at this time. When I was invited to attend the premiere, I was immediately shocked by the subversive characters of the male and female protagonists in the play."
"In recent years, many newcomers, even those who have debuted for more than ten or twenty years, are still pretending to be young and playing handsome men and beautiful women, while the little queen An Lan and the creative talent Han Zhou use rural images as their first experience on the big screen."
"I originally thought that this experience was just a hype, but as the plot deepened, I was shocked by what Hello Mr. Tree expressed."
"Can movies be shot like this?"
"Can movies be performed like this?"
"This is not sarcasm, but a kind of admiration and sigh from the bottom of my heart. The acting skills of the male and female protagonists in the play are so good that no one would refute it even if they are called the best actor or actress. And they are just newcomers who have just entered this industry. For the first time, I felt what talent is and what it means to be blessed by God and ancestors."
"To be precise, it was the Grandmaster who chased me and fed me!"
"Back to the movie, Hello Mr. Tree, it tells the story of a village, but if you look closely, it seems to be about a country. If you look more carefully, it turns out to be the story of one person."
"After watching the movie and thinking about it for three whole days, I realized that Hello Mr. Tree is not about a story. The story only exists in my superficial cognition. Hello Mr. Tree is about life."
"Before writing this article, I was talking about this film with a colleague who was at the critics' premiere with me, and he said, 'Write me a review and I'll write you a review.'"
"The comment he wrote was 'There are no stories in life, only accidents. I don't understand Shu Ge because I don't want to understand. If I understand, then I can only admit that I am Shu Ge.'"
"And what I wrote was, 'This movie will make fans very depressed and even feel upset after watching it, but when many people talk about it in the future, you will remember that you didn't go to the theater to watch it, and you will be even more depressed and feel even more upset.'"
"When Hello Mr. Tree is released, I will go and watch it again. In fact, my whole body is resisting watching this movie again, but for the little queen An Lan, I am willing to watch it again."
"By the way, I give "Hello Mr. Tree" a score of nine."
This film critic is named Tianluo. His style is more emotional and he doesn't mention much substantive stuff.
But we have to admit that he was telling the truth and was not exaggerating just because he was paid for writing.
Such articles are just what attract movie fans.
Movie fans just have a rebellious mentality. "How depressed and upset can one be after watching this movie?" "I just don't believe it."
Tianluo’s old fans know that Tianluo doesn’t often give movies a score of nine. Sometimes, after praising a movie for a long time, Tianluo will only give it a score of seven.
Tian Luo gave the film a score of nine this time, but he did not brag too much. It was obvious that he was afraid of affecting the audience's viewing experience and did not dare to give out spoilers.
This time it is called a press release because all media outlets are releasing news, but each one is releasing something different.
Because many film critics' articles are very interesting, the articles published by each media are different.
Logically, such a good thing should be released once by every media, but "Hello Mr. Tree" did not do so and did not promote it in this way.
Because there are still many promotional points for "Hello Mr. Tree".
There is still a week of promotional period from the end of the competition to the release on New Year’s Day.
This week, the entire publicity plan has been filmed and it has been a hot topic every day.
The purpose is not to make money from the movie, but to get fans and passers-by to go to the cinema to see how well An Lan acts.
Of course, Tianle’s purpose is different. Wang Xiya wants to let his peers know how awesome and powerful the first movie he directed is.
Wang Xiya even made a set of plans for submitting reviews and competing for awards more than Universal and Mailang.
A lot of fans were a little confused after seeing the news.
"It's the movie starring Goddess An and Han Zhou. It will be released on New Year's Day? Have they started selling tickets? Buy one first!"
"I remember now. It said that Goddess An played a mute and Han Zhou played a fool. Hahaha, I am dying of laughter. They made a movie just to criticize Kim Hyo Hee?"
"I attended the internal premiere, and I can only say that Kim Hyo-hee doesn't deserve it."
"Hey, bro, can you give me a spoiler? What's the plot?"
"I don't want to spoil the story. I smoked three packs of cigarettes after watching it and almost died at home. You can go and watch it yourself when the time comes."
After this was said, many people in the comment section felt that Goddess An must have been wronged in the movie!
"I feel sorry for the little diva."
"Goddess An, come on!"
"An Lan, you are the fattest!"
"??? I'll give you a chance to reorganize your words!"
"Sorry bro, wrong number, wrong number. It's the best, the best."
A large number of fans also started discussing and reposting articles under the topic on Weibo.
However, now, most fans and passers-by are still waiting to watch the second round of the finals.
So, this is just the beginning of the heat.
The advertisement of Yanjing TV ended soon.
The host came on stage: "Welcome back to the final night of "Tomorrow's Superstar"!"
“The results are already obvious.”
"Congratulations to Han Zhou and An Lan for entering the final competition."
"Say goodbye to Zhao Qian, too, Maika!"
Normally, the contestants should have performed a tearful farewell, a reluctant separation, tearful wishes, and "move forward with my dream" on stage.
Unfortunately, Han Zhou was just standing there in a daze.
An Lan has something of her own to think about.
Zhao Qian didn’t feel it was a pity at all. She just thought that her performance was pretty good and hoped that it would attract a little attention so that she could make her debut successfully.
Maca wanted to say a few words to An Lan to attract some attention, but An Lan ignored him, feeling a little awkward.
Chen Feng: "Okay, next is the final decisive stage."
"You two have come this far, and you can be said to be very good friends. Do you have anything to say to each other?"
Liu Yiling smiled and said, "Welcome to the part where we say harsh words."
Han Zhou raised the microphone and said, "I hope you can become a queen at a speed that no one has ever shown before."
"After all, this is the Internet age, and everything depends on speed."
An Lan raised the microphone and said, "I hope my fans can listen to the next songs carefully. If you like Han Zhou's songs, please vote for him."
"I hope the final champion will be Han Zhou."
When the audience saw this situation, they were completely stunned.
The finals are coming, and An Lan actually hopes that everyone will vote for Han Zhou?
Liu Yiling also expressed a similar view and said that she wanted to poach people from the film and television industry.
At this point, a small number of viewers already knew that the premiere of "Hello Mr. Tree" had received high reviews and were also discussing it.
The audience who did not see the press release only understood the situation after seeing the discussion.
In the end, An Lan stood alone on the stage.
This time, the press release not only promotes "Hello Mr. Tree", but also promotes the birth of the little queen.
And An Lan's next song will let everyone know what a little queen is.
After Han Zhou came up with the song "The Moon Represents My Heart", all the songwriters at Mailang had only one thought: How the hell can a human write this?
Every note is perfect!
The prelude is melodious and beautiful.
Ci is like poetry and fu.
Song, a classic.
Even the interlude is flawless , without a single flaw!
Han Zhou wrote this song for An Lan because it was considered by industry insiders to be the number one pop song in the past fifty years of Chinese pop music.
It is also the most popular Chinese song in the world and a timeless classic that has been covered by countless famous singers at home and abroad!
