Yang Ye held a meeting with the Rolling Stones and determined three things.
To create Teresa Teng's new album "A Touch of Love 2", use Qi Qin to target Wang Jie to promote it, and create a Mandarin album for F4.
As for Hong Kong singers going to Taiwan and Taiwanese singers going to Hong Kong, we will talk about it next year.
I’ve been busy enough with these things this year. I’ll bite off more than I can chew, so that’s it for now!
But to create a Mandarin album for F4, we must first release "Meteor Garden".
Speaking of "Meteor Garden", Yang Ye thought of the "godmother of idol dramas" Chai Zhiping.
Dig her out!
……
Chai Zhiping sat in front of Yang Ye.
This woman is 26 years old this year. She is quite pretty. When she smiles, the curve of her eyes is a little sweet, but she can't hide her sparkle.
Later Taiwanese star Michelle Chen looks very similar to her, which may be the reason why she admires Michelle Chen so much!
In 2012, Chai Zhiping took Michelle Chen to promote "The Girls We Chased Together in Those Years". When the two stood together, Chai Zhiping looked like Michelle Chen's biological mother!
However, Yang Ye has experienced too many peerless beauties, and looks of this level are not worth mentioning in Yang Ye’s eyes!
Chai Zhiping is not yet prosperous. She studied drama in college and could not find a job after graduation.
Temporarily, I was filming a short play in a variety show called "Diamond Stage" on China Television, and played the role of "Double Winter Sisters" with another girl named Zhang Lingyu!
What is "Double Winter Sister Flower"?
In the Shuangdong section of Zhongtan Highway in the 1970s, some people set up stalls selling betel nut on the roadside. The business was bleak and there were very few people.
This man had a sudden idea and asked his three daughters who worked in the factory to go home and sell betel nuts.
Because her daughter is beautiful, business is so good that many passing drivers come to her house to buy betel nuts.
Her daughters are called "Double Winter Sisters"!
So other people followed suit and recruited young and beautiful girls to sell betel nut.
In order to attract customers, these girls wear less and less clothing.
It was quite serious at first, but later everyone wore cool gauze, swimsuits, and even exclusive designers to create various styles of uniforms, which made it spectacular.
This is Taiwan’s famous “Betel Nut Beauty”!
In its heyday, it was famous all over the world, and many people went to Taiwan to appreciate it.
It's a pity that in 2002, the Taiwan government issued the "Three No's Regulations", prohibiting exposure of breasts, waist, and buttocks.
If you don’t have anything to see, you won’t visit it, and this beautiful scenery will disappear.
“I’ve seen the movie written by you, it’s very unique!” Yang Ye said.
Chai Zhiping felt a little embarrassed for a moment. She wrote all the short plays she filmed herself, and also helped other people write TV series. But as for movies, she had only written... Category III films.
"How...how did you know it was me?" She was making up third-level movies for people, so naturally she wouldn't be stupid enough to use her real name. She didn't even want to sign her name.
Yang Ye said calmly: "This is not the point. The point is... you have great ideas. I appreciate your talent. Come to Hong Kong with me!"
Chai Zhiping is really convinced, Yang Ye started from a movie In the tertiary film, I can see that she has a lot of ideas. What the hell are you thinking!
She suddenly thought of a question: He, he, he...couldn't he be attracted to me?
No wonder she thinks this way. Yang Ye said nothing bad, but he said he had seen the third-level movie she had written.
Actually, Yang Ye has never seen it at all. He just said it casually because he knew that Chai Zhiping was now working as a screenwriter.
Chai Zhiping couldn't help but think wildly. Yang Ye is a superstar and so handsome. If he likes me...
Chai Zhiping couldn't help laughing!
Seeing her suddenly laughing, Yang Ye said inexplicably: "What's wrong with you?"
"Oh!" Chai Zhiping quickly sat upright and said seriously: "What should I... go to Hong Kong with you for? "
"That's right, I think you are very talented in screenwriting. I will give you a story and you will turn it into a script. If your script satisfies me, this TV series will be a success. You will be the producer!”
"Ah?" Chai Zhiping was shocked.
“You seem unhappy?”
“No, I am very happy!”
It turns out he is not trying to support me! Chai Zhiping couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
I then wished I could slap myself, what were I thinking? What beautiful woman has he not seen before? Who can you compare to?
This...maybe a rich man like him has some special hobbies? He also watches third-level movies!
Okay, don’t think about it. Once you’ve written this script, you can become a producer. This is a pie-in-the-sky thing!
Chai Zhiping tried hard to dispel all the messy thoughts in her head, forced a smile on her face, and said, "I'm very happy, what's the story?"
Yang Ye threw the text to her. , said: "You have three days to familiarize yourself with this story. Within half a month, if you have any questions, you can ask me.
I am going to the mainland in half a month. You can't ask anyone if you want to. Wait. When I come back, I hope to see a wonderful script! ”
Yang Ye didn't want to leave "Meteor Garden" to the top producers of ATV. This kind of idol drama purely to satisfy girls' fantasies has never appeared in the world.
And the minds of those gold medal producers have already formed a fixed mindset. Let them produce it, it is destined to be a disaster!
When filming "Meteor Garden", Chai Zhiping asked senior TV people to help. Those people said, if your TV series becomes popular, I will chop off your head and give it to you.
Finally, "Meteor Garden" became a hit in Asia and slapped everyone in the face!
In fact, the success of "Meteor Garden" caught everyone off guard. Even Chai Zhiping herself didn't understand what was going on. Many years later, Chai Zhiping traveled to the United States and saw a work by a painter named Mark Rothko called "Untitled - Yellow and Blue" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
……
Illustration: "Untitled - Yellow and Blue"
……
Chai Zhiping looked at this painting for a long time, she felt... ...She could draw this thing even when she was in elementary school.
Why can this painting be placed in the Museum of Modern Art and fetch hundreds of millions of dollars at auction?
Chai Zhiping read the introduction of this painting carefully: "It is a model of abstract expressionism. Through painting, you can feel your own emotions and inner voice."
Chai Zhiping realized that she She could never figure it out before, "Why I succeeded."
She felt: "Even if future generations think this is a simple thing, as long as you are the first in your own era, If you propose this theory or be the first to successfully implement it, you may be highly recognized.”
At that time, Chai Zhiping truly realized what kind of existence she was!
Yang Ye understood this answer that Chai Zhiping had been thinking about for decades.
Because... he is like this!
He can constantly come up with things that no one in this world has ever seen, so he can continue to succeed.
Yang Ye approached Chai Zhiping because she could make "Meteor Garden" into something new.
Although those gold medal producers have profound skills and the things they produce are exquisite, they are not what Yang Ye wants.
...
After meeting Chai Zhiping, Yang Ye met another person, Song Xiangru, the Golden Horse Award Best Screenwriter.
Yang Ye said bluntly: "Mr. Song, I am asking you to meet this time because I hope you can help me write a TV script!"
Song Xiangru said curiously: "Mr. Yang's men You are such a fierce general. You are a master of screenwriting. How could you think of me writing a script for you? "
Yang Ye said: "I invested in building a film and television base and restored a Forbidden City to the same proportion. Now it is completed. I hope to film a TV series set in the history of the Ming and Qing Dynasties
Hong Kong screenwriters are too commercial and lose the weight of history. Mainland screenwriters are lacking in entertainment.
I have read Mr. Song’s works, and it is rare to have both. I also know that you are knowledgeable and have a lot of research on history, so I want to ask you to take action! ”
After hearing this, Song Xiangru couldn’t help but fell into deep thought, because...he happened to be imagining a script recently.
Song Xiangru was born in Sihong County, Suqian, Jiangsu Province. He was originally a sailor, 1948 He came to Taiwan with his troops in 2011 and has been separated from his parents and relatives on both sides of the Taiwan Strait since then.
After Taiwan opened up for family visits, he couldn't wait to return to his hometown. By this time, his father had already passed away and his mother was already in her late 90s, and they had been away for more than 40 years. Zai, mother and son hugged each other and cried!
He is lucky, his mother is still alive, and many veterans return to their hometown with great expectations. Their parents have passed away long ago, and all they can see is a piece of loess!
As a senior screenwriter, Song Xiangru’s trip to his hometown left unforgettable memories and inspired his desire to create!
Sihong has a long history. The Huaihe River and the ancient Bianhe River pass through it. Qianlong once passed here when he went to the south of the Yangtze River. Many anecdotes about Qianlong are also spread here.
The written conversations and folk legends of relatives and friends aroused great interest in Song Xiangru. He decided to use these folk legends as a blueprint to write a script called... "Joking about Qianlong"!
Song Xiangru said: "Mr. Yang, do you have any requirements for this script?"
Yang Ye said: "Eight words, both refined and popular, suitable for all ages!"
Song Xiangru said: "To be honest, I am currently writing a script about the anecdotes and wild history of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty."
Yang Ye said happily: "Oh, that's a coincidence, can I take a look!"
Song Xiangru shook his head: "We are still in the conception stage, and we need to consult a lot of biographies and anecdotes about Qianlong. And Qing history materials."
Song Xiangru said, briefly telling Yang Ye what story he wanted to write!
Yang Ye nodded and said: "It's very interesting! Let's do this. I have booked this script. If it is suitable, our company will invest in the filming. I will use first-line TV stars to produce it with the highest standards."
Song Xiangru was overjoyed. He was originally thinking about where to attract investment after the script was written, but Yang Ye came to the door himself, and he was so cheerful.
The production level of ATV is obvious to all. Compared with the three broken channels in Taiwan, they rely on defense.
Moreover, this "Playing About Qianlong" will become the pioneering work of Yang Ye's film and television city, so naturally he will not fool around and will definitely make it big.
Such a partner is really something we can only hope for.
The two parties hit it off immediately!
……
In late September, Yang Ye finally left Taiwan.
Chai Zhiping also quit her crappy job and followed Yang Ye to Hong Kong.
Yang Ye asked someone to arrange a single dormitory for her in the staff building and left her alone!
At this time, both "God of Gamblers 2" and "Shanghai Gambler" have been released in Hong Kong. The box office of "God of Gamblers 2" exceeded 40 million, becoming the second Hong Kong movie with a box office of 40 million.
The box office of "Shanghai Gambler" was 33 million, which was slightly behind. After all, Yang Ye was more awesome.
However, this year Zhou Xingchi successively released three movies, "The Gambler", "The Gambler", and "The Gambler". The local box office all exceeded 30 million, which is impressive enough.
A rising box office king will naturally be snapped up by all parties. Chow Sing-chi continues to have film appointments, and his film remuneration has also increased. Within a year, it has skyrocketed from no one interested to five million.
Yang Ye wants to suppress the salary of celebrities a little, but I'm afraid it won't be that easy. (End of chapter)
