Chapter 795: Invitation from the Grammy Awards

The Spring Festival Gala still did not disappoint everyone. Even if there were many small notes and many choruses, the Spring Festival Gala was still the Spring Festival Gala, giving people too much expectations, or an emotional bond.

This is irreplaceable for any party.

As expected, Ye Ming sang the song "Jiangnan Fan". The purpose was to promote the Olympics. Originally, this song could not be included in the prestigious Spring Festival Gala, but because the leaders above said that foreigners should be allowed to Look, the vitality of our young people in China has made foreigners know that after the reform and opening up, young people in China are ahead of the trend of the times.

Therefore, this [Jiangnan Fan] who had no hope of attending the Spring Festival Gala also followed suit.

Moreover, this song is also very surprising. It has also had a considerable impact in the West. When Ye Ming sang "Jiangnan Fan", he created a ratings of 7.8 for the Spring Festival Gala. This is the mainstream media The ratings are not those of the Chinese community.

Is the real mainstream media ratings. In the past, if the Spring Festival Gala program could exceed 3, it would be considered a pretty good result.

It can also be seen from this point that Ye Ming's influence in the West is very huge. In addition, there is good news that makes the Olympic bid committee people very happy. That is to say, Ye Ming was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Dance Song. [Gangnam Fan] is also published in the United States, so it is not surprising at all that it was nominated for a Grammy Award.

Moreover, Gangnam Fan's sales in the United States have reached more than five million copies, which is less than a year. This number is absolutely jaw-dropping. After all, it is difficult for a Chinese singer to achieve such a result.

But Ye Ming's "Jiangnan Fan" once again proves one thing, that is, music has no national boundaries.

After the Spring Festival Gala, Ye Ming had a short vacation of three days. At this time, Zhang Yimou came to the door and said: "Ye Ming, because you are going to attend the Love Grammy Awards Ceremony, therefore, this time the Olympic bid committee Man, I hope you can contribute to promoting the Olympics at the Grammy Awards. If this matter can appear at the Grammy Awards, it will be very meaningful for promoting the Beijing Olympics."

Ye Ming said without thinking: "I'm afraid this is very difficult. Director Zhang, you don't know. In such a party that the whole world is paying attention to, if I want to perform something, they may not listen to me. If I If I win the award, I will definitely be able to sing "Gangnam Fan". If I don't win the award, I won't even have the chance to perform on stage. I can't guarantee that I can do this, but as an ambassador for the Olympic bid, I will promote the Olympics. It is my duty to do so, and I will use appropriate opportunities to promote the Beijing Olympics."

It is already quite difficult for Ye Ming to agree to this.

Zhang Yimou also said with some embarrassment: "The above meaning must be achieved. This is an excellent opportunity. The Western mainstream media also has a certain prejudice against China. We don't have many opportunities like this. And it's not just It means that if you, even Li Yu, attend the Oscar awards ceremony, there will be Chinese elements present. This is a must, unless Li Yu does not want to make movies in China in the future.

You also understand that there are some things that cannot be decided by the Olympic Bid Committee, and if you have someone to deal with the consequences of these things that your kid caused, otherwise you would think you would be so relaxed. Just for this, you have to work hard to achieve it. "

Everything was for the purpose of bidding for the Olympics. At this time, Ye Ming also felt the same way. No matter how it was said, on such a matter, Ye Ming thought about it and finally couldn't help but said: "If it is said that I agreed, there will be What kind of benefits."

If it wasn't mandatory, then Ye Ming wouldn't ask for any conditions.

After all, he himself is the Olympic bid ambassador. In this case, if it can promote the Olympics, then he is also willing to do such a thing. Everyone wants to contribute to the Beijing Olympic bid.

But this compulsion makes Ye Ming feel a little uncomfortable. OK, if I do it, there will always be some benefits, right? Zhang Yimou laughed loudly and said: "You kid, you are still like this. Do you think that others don't know that you are bargaining like this? In fact, when I came, someone said that you will definitely be able to bargain. Don't worry, I will protect you." Your benefit is indispensable. Didn’t you say you wanted to make a new movie?

At that time, it will naturally give you some convenience in shooting. For example, if you want to use the Forbidden City, you may not be able to use it, but if you do it this time, it is not something that cannot be considered. "This is actually the temptation of Chi Guoguo, but this method is also very useful for Ye Ming.

Therefore, Ye Ming said with a smile: "Well, actually, this matter is settled. In fact, I am also thinking about how to shoot this movie by then. The Forbidden City may not be used, but other places may It will be used, and when the time comes, the leader will just give me some convenience."

After Zhang Yimou heard Ye Ming's sermon, he couldn't say much in such a situation. He sighed and said: "This is what it is anyway. It will definitely be good for you. The higher ups will not forget you." Credit goes. You kid, you are so preoccupied as an ambassador for the Olympic bid."

Ye Ming relaxed his shoulders and said helplessly: "Director Zhang, I'm also very helpless. Do you think I'm willing to do this? In fact, it's hard to tell for this movie of mine. I had planned to co-produce it with Warner Bros. As for this movie, but think about it, this is a Chinese movie. If we talk about cooperating with a Hollywood company, then there is no problem in such a thing, but we want to shoot it in an original way. It's not easy to make the movie I want. That's why I thought about shooting it myself, but forget it. Let's talk about it later. This book itself is actually a bit difficult. I just hope that the boss will remember my good things. ,"

As a reminder to Ye Ming, Zhang Yimou knew very well that what Ye Ming said was so simple, but in reality, things would never end that easily. When this guy says there is a problem, that means there must be a problem, and it is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Zhang Yimou said with a smile: "You just have to pay attention to this. You are not a newcomer anyway. What kind of movies can be made, and what kind of movies should be avoided. You should know this. It's too much." If so, then it won’t happen.”

Although Ye Ming is young, he is indeed an old man in the entertainment industry. Therefore, although Ye Ming may not be very clear about what kind of movies can and cannot be made in the entertainment industry, in fact, in this situation, He also knew a little bit about one of the things.

What Zhang Yimou said means that it is best not to mess with some principled things. Ye Ming said with a smile: "There is no problem with this. It just involves some of the lives of the people at the bottom. Slumdog Millionaire. Just listen to the name of this movie and you can think of what kind of movie it is. If so, it is also somewhat ironic. Therefore, I am afraid that some people will say that I have brought discredit on the face of socialism.

Anyway, if someone took this matter seriously, it would really not be simple. "

Zhang Yimou also had a little understanding of the plot of such a thing, and finally he really understood what kind of movie this was.

He was a little surprised, but in the end he thought about it and said: "It's almost the same. Although the movie you mentioned touches on some sensitive issues, it is all about social reality. One does not steal, the other does not rob, the third does not oppose the people, and the fourth Not to oppose the party. This is actually one of the core goals of our filmmaking. It is no big deal to satirize the lives of the poor in society.

I believe that as long as you pay a little attention, you should be able to pass. "This movie is actually just a side project. At this time, if someone is competing, then in such a situation, things are easier to say than harder to say.

It is indeed a dark irony after all. But if we say that this is a realistic work, a realistic movie, like the black humorous satire of a big-name artist, this [Slumdog Millionaire] is a spicy torture. Although the tone is slightly exciting, but Generally speaking, this matter is relatively large and easy for people to take over.

Especially when it comes to Ye Ming's ability to control the plot, Zhang Yimou still believes in it.

At this time, Ye Ming said with some relief: "In this case, then such a thing is not a big deal. I will do my best for the Grammy Awards, but there are some things that I cannot decide. If it is or If I cannot win the award, then at this time, it can only be said to be a pity."

Ye Ming also made it very clear that if I can perform on stage, I will definitely try my best to promote the Beijing Olympics, but I have to have such an opportunity. Ye Ming himself couldn't guarantee the rest, so he couldn't say much.

Zhang Yimou nodded happily and said: "Everyone is watching. We are just doing our best to obey fate. If this thing really doesn't succeed, you will not be blamed. You can just do it with confidence and boldness."

I just wanted to say hello to Ye Ming, and I hope Ye Ming can seize this opportunity. Of course, if there is no chance to say yes or to go on stage to receive the award, then this matter cannot be said to be a big deal. This must be no wonder Ye Ming.

PS:

Some readers said that the entertainment industry is written in a darker light. Yes, everyone has seen the glamorous side, but there are probably not many people who know about the unspoken rules. Of course, I will pay attention in the future and write more film works, inspiring films. (To be continued)
