Chapter 293 (1/2)
Companies that can come to ces in the summer usually don't give them any chance to pick up leaks. The temporary investment impulse has nothing to gain. Song Ya still goes back to sell records honestly.
”Hey, Shankman, long time no see.”
The sixth week's list situation has been very bad. Billboard album list, which is the album sales data, ”a +” album was unexpectedly ended by the rookie country singer Billy Ray Cyrus's somegaveall, but the single's number one was held by his midfield performance and on-the-spot enthusiasm in the NBA finals.
According to the design of Sony Columbia Records, when the popularity and sales data continue to decline to a certain extent, another strong single beautiful girls will be released. The current planned time point is about August, because the student group is in the summer vacation, which is very beneficial to the song sales for teenagers.
The popularity of beautiful girls has gone. At the end of the year, there will be a series of activities such as the official single release of where is the love and star singing. Then, in the award season next year, we will strive to win some heavyweight awards and continue to save our customers with the release of music videos.
In a word, motura is really a master in the field of selling records. Its popularity is like a tide, and it is easy to adjust in time. According to the sales momentum, motura can advance or postpone the publicity of the next node, so as to maintain the buying momentum. This is much better than song ya, after he got a Tianqi song before, and issued orders in a hurry as soon as he made it. He just took advantage of the high quality of Tianqi songs.
”Hello, aplus.”
So the task now is to get beautiful girls' MV out as soon as possible. After returning from London, song Ya checked his dance teacher's choreography and was very dissatisfied. So he wanted to find back the Shankman dance company that he used to work with in the trumpet MV and continue to cooperate.
Because Sony Columbia can't afford to pay for the album's $8 million publicity budget alone, Sonya's a + records will share the expenses with each other, and the cost of making music videos is also included. Since it costs half of the money, Sonya has won over the power of the producer from motura. On this point, Sony Columbia Records are very comfortable with him.
After a brief chat with Shankman, the price of the other party was twice as high as that of trumpets, and he couldn't devote all his energy to MV shooting.
”Today I have a film, a TV play choreographer, schedule is very tight.” Shankman's dance company seems to have recovered from last year's financial crisis, and is now in good shape.
Indeed, their modern hip-hop style dance is very similar to the futuristic style in trumpets, which means that Shankman has grasped the trend.
”Maybe I can invest in your company and get you more dancers or something?” Song Ya is very confident now and would like to try any investment opportunity.
Shankman laughed, and the 30-year-old white man from a wealthy Los Angeles family said, ”I used to have deep cooperation with MJ and Paula and others.”
”I know, I know.”
This is the refusal. After all, it's the dance company that went to the Academy Awards ceremony. Maybe it was a good opportunity when his dance company encountered difficulties last year, but song Ya had no capital or investment consciousness at that time. In this case, we have to find another way.
”Is that ok? I'll send my chief dancer and assistant choreographer, Anne Fletcher, to help you. I think you know her level and it'll be much cheaper than me.”
Shankman offered half price.
”My MV needs dozens of people's group dance scenes, and then there are two MV shooting tasks.”
Song Ya thinks of the excellent female dancer at that time, but she is a little worried about the leadership of the other party. In addition to beautiful girls, there are also group dances in showme the money in the future music videos to be released. With the double choreography of wanto wantme, song Ya doesn't want to save too much money this time. The investment of beautiful girls' original MV should not be small, because the fast food restaurant was shot in the shed All the sets should be built temporarily, and the cost of light scenery should exceed the total cost of all previous MV.
As for the two songs, where is the love and feel it still, because the content of the lyrics is a grand topic, there is no need for singing and dancing.
The official version of Empire State of mind's MV, with Maria Kelly involved, Sony Columbia Records will be in charge of the production, and Sonya won't be able to do much.
”I can have her come to you for an interview.” Said Shankman.
”All right.”
Song Ya promised to come down, he had no choice. It seemed that there were not many professional dancers in the original MV. If Annie Fletcher could use it, it would be her.
Next is the choice of directors. Zach Schneider, a regular partner, is using the money he has saved in the past two years to make a short film in order to group his dream of film director. Song Ya asks a circle of people and finally selects Larry, the director of Maria Kelly's MTV non plug-in concert.Song Ya prepared one of his own, which was based on the original MV. Since he still copied the original version in singing, he still gave up the idea of changing the style of MV according to the content of the lyrics.
The heroine, of course, is Shakira, who has been practicing on a + for more than a month.
“1234,2234……”
Two days later, Annie Fletcher arrived at a + records. Song Ya and director Larry were both present, and Roberto clevier also took the initiative to come. Song Ya had to invite him to participate in the interview.
The practice room of a + records is not big. Annie Fletcher is in front of her. She brings two assistants, as well as Fergie, Shakira and a dozen or so Chicago dancers from a + records. Everyone arranges the movements according to her brand-new arrangements and dances with beautiful girls. Sonya, Larry and Roberto clevier were leaning against the back wall, chatting and observing.
This white top dancer has no body or dance. He doesn't look very good. His shoes have a face, his chin is too big and he's a little protruding. But it doesn't matter. He can dance if he can.
”How about it?” Asked Roberto clevell.
