Chapter 297 Rumors are flying everywhere
Chapter 297 Rumors are flying everywhere
I originally wanted to collaborate with Sony Music, try to enter the international music scene, and make some pocket money at the same time.
But now he found that Sony Music was two-faced and could probably not be relied upon. They didn't care much about him as an unsigned independent musician, and had no intention of investing resources to support him.
He felt ashamed of being cheated by choosing the wrong partner this time.
I originally thought that since we had worked together on the "Those Years..." project and made Sony a lot of money, we should at least reciprocate.
Facts have proven that a simple life is just a simple life, and people will always be ungrateful and can never be tamed.
Only by beating them until it hurts can they be convinced.
He pretended to be calm in front of Zuo Ziyan and didn't say anything harsh in advance.
The gap in strength between the two sides was too great. No matter what was said to Zuo Ziyan, it would seem like flattering himself and he would end up being at a disadvantage.
but.
Although I don't have the strength to break up with him for the time being, there's no need to make a fuss about this small business. It won't hurt to stab him in the back when I get the chance.
It is difficult for Fan Wumian to be ambitious when it comes to the island country's enterprises. He is considering targeting some works released by Sony Pictures instead of beating up his mainland counterparts.
Sleep and wake up.
After careful consideration, he felt that since he had no channels and lacked working capital, selling the copyrights of these English songs in a package seemed to be a good option.
I just need to reserve the right to sing them myself at concerts in the future; everything else doesn't matter.
Just do it.
It happened to be a gloomy and snowy day, so the crew's plan to shoot the finale had to be postponed.
Fan Wumian recorded the video at home, singing clips of "something just like this", "that girl", and a magical brainwash song "wellerman".
In the video title, @Marvel Comics, DC Comics, and the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest" are mentioned, and the caption reads
——"It seems very suitable for use in your movie. If you need a theme song, please contact me."
It can be considered as personally promoting the product.
Fan Wumian posted these three videos on Youtube. He already has more than 8 followers. His influence in Europe and the United States is not great, but it is not to the point where no one cares about him.
The public call to these companies was mainly to tell certain people in Sony that the buyout price of $60 was too low and that they still had a chance to find other buyers.
In areas where English is not the native language, people inevitably feel a layer of separation when listening to English songs, and like to subconsciously translate them into their native language in their heads.
This results in a lack of feeling when listening to English songs.
The same is true with poetry.
When English poems, which foreigners consider to be beautiful, are translated into Chinese, people often feel that the translations are sloppy.
When translating ancient Chinese poems into English, the artistic conception is very different.
The song "something just like this" feels very touching to Americans on YouTube. The melody is simple and beautiful, and it has a unique charm.
The video was sent out not long ago.
There is a comment by Xiao Xiba, which says
——"Thank God, please quickly remove that damn pinned song. I often click on it accidentally, and it makes me want to vomit when I hear it!"
Soon.
A black girl also left a message, writing
——"Wow, a lot of people have been covering "Wellerman" and "That Girl" recently. I never thought that these two songs are yours. They are so great! My roommate sang "Wellerman" all night long. No kidding, it was really the whole night!!!"
Fan Wumian closed the webpage after posting the video.
He has long discovered that when a star cares too much about other people's opinions, it will be difficult for him to live a good life, and his good mood for the whole day will always be affected by some negative comments.
If you have a fragile heart, your mentality will easily become problematic over time. This is not a small trouble that can be solved by making more money. It may even cause many people to give up making money and choose to withdraw from the circle.
For example, Wanyu in the previous life "Love Apartment" was actually a very good character, but unfortunately the actor could not handle the pressure due to the negative influence of other dramas.
Not wanting to be upset by strangers, Fan Wumian simply chose to read fewer comments.
While leisurely drinking tea and reading the newspaper, he discovered that the news that he had been blackmailed for 5 yuan could not be concealed. The article used a large amount of space to describe in detail the cause and effect of the whole incident.
The content is fine, but the title is obviously confusing.
On the newspaper in his hand, in large, bold font, it was written:
——"Fan Wumian was blackmailed by pornographic photos, and as many as 13 celebrities were victimized. The criminals were quickly arrested!"
"."
Fan Wumian's forehead was throbbing with veins, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"Compared to the Hong Kong media, it's a little bit inferior, but its ability to stir up trouble is first-rate. Ah Jing, what do you think of first when you see this kind of article title?"
Done.
He showed Pu Jiajing the newspaper in his hand.
Assistant Pu Jiajing was busy wiping the table. After reading it, she smacked her lips and said, "I feel like you are not a human being, especially since you are clearly one of the 14 victims."
".Your focus is really weird. I mean this kind of headline makes me look like a pervert who did that to 13 people. Media editors are very particular about every word, and it could have been written more clearly. They must have done it on purpose." When Fan Wumian spoke, he also searched the Internet for related news. Sure enough, he found posts in many forums and BBS, which sparked discussions among netizens.
A forum user named "蛋蛋の忧伤" commented:
——"The celebrity circle is really not simple. I feel that the criminal must have heard some news and then chose to blackmail Fan Wumian. It is definitely not groundless. Don't forget that he has signed contracts with so many beautiful girls. It would be strange if he could hold back."
Some netizens also commented that
——"The school beauty of Beijing Dance Academy is so pretty. Someone even took a photo of them having dinner together a few days ago. I'm afraid they really did get nude photos taken, but Fan Wumian paid to keep them quiet."
Over there in the forum.
There are also some resourceful netizens who bluntly said that the person in charge of the case was Yang Mi's father, and they further suspected that their daughter was in trouble, which was why the case was solved so quickly.
These comments are still good, but some of them are not human at all.
Some netizens even made up stories, saying that Fan Wumian chose to study at Beijing Film Academy in order to pursue Liu Yifei, forcing her to flee to Tokyo to develop abroad.
All kinds of gossip spread as if it were true, making Fan Wumian so angry that he took a deep breath and closed the webpage again.
After reading the article, Assistant Pu Jiajing smiled and said:
"The police department mentioned that if you hadn't called the police in time, more people might have been blackmailed. They want you to cooperate with them in an interview. The camera is off today, boss, are you going?"
I think having no house to collapse is actually a good thing from some perspectives. Fan Wumian shook his head and said:
"Forget it. If anyone asks me again, just say I'm busy filming recently. Please take some time to make a banner and give it to Yang Mi's father and the others."
"It's been jingling since morning. What are you doing next door today? Don't you take a break on a snowy day?"
"It's such a headache. It's my construction site, and it disturbs my peace."
Putting the newspaper in front of him, Assistant Pu Jiajing smiled:
"I thought you were going to film today and didn't inform them to take a break. The carpenters are helping you build cabinets, tables and chairs, so it's inevitable that there will be some noise."
"Oh, I've seen the design drawings. To be honest, the style is a bit old-fashioned and it's not my favorite. But the patterns on the Yunlong top cabinets are very elegant and look classy when placed at home."
The construction site is busy laying gold tiles on the floor, as well as wall tiles in the bathroom and kitchen.
The carpenters were concentrated in the vacant underground garage, so as not to delay either side and the construction progressed very quickly.
Living next door was too noisy, so Fan Wumian packed up and went out, preparing to visit Zhuang Muxi in her small courtyard.
When the car drove out of the basement, we found that several media outlets had come to interview us after being late to the party and were being blackmailed by letters.
Rumors are flying all over the Internet.
Worried about being taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives and fanning the flames.
Fan Wumian was rarely enthusiastic towards the reporters and got out of the car to explain a few words. He just said that he received the letter inexplicably and immediately guessed that someone was trying his luck to blackmail a star, so he asked his agent to call the police immediately.
Someone also asked him if he knew who the 13 celebrity victims were who paid the fees obediently. Fan Wumian decisively shook his head and said he didn't know, and he hadn't cared about it since he called the police.
When asked why he looked for Yang Mi's father, he replied that he was unfamiliar with the place in Yanjing, so he called if he knew anyone.
The whole process was flawless and the reporters could not find any faults at all.
The weather is too cold.
The snow on the road was first pressed into water, and then quickly froze into ice chips, causing the wheels to make a squeaking sound when pressed on them.
The Shichahai Ice Rink is finally open to the public, and it really is like skating on the frozen lake.
Some nearby residents have been skating for most of their lives and have become so good at it that they dare to drink water from their thermos while turning a corner.
In just a distance of two or three kilometers, I saw four or five car accidents.
Some drivers accidentally rear-ended other cars, and there was also a taxi driver arguing with an old man about whether he was hit by the old man or he fell because the road was slippery.
There was even a talented person who drove the car onto the frozen lake, leaving only the front of the car exposed.
The driver seemed to be fine. He was facing the reporter's interview and explaining what happened with gestures and excitement. White mist came out of his mouth while he spoke. It is estimated that the ratings after the broadcast will not be too bad.
halfway.
Huang Bo called Fan Wumian and said in a rather humorous tone:
"Well, Mr. Fan! Director Lu, Xu Zheng and I are at the airport. The airport said that it is snowing heavily in Yanjing and all flights are blocked. We are preparing to fly to Jinan instead and then take the train there."
"Now I just don't know if it will delay the evening schedule. The reporters have already been contacted, so I'm afraid it will be postponed for an hour or two."
"It's our fault for not arranging it well. We are worried that the audience will get angry when the time comes."
After listening to Huang Bo, Fan Wumian was very considerate and replied in a calm tone:
"It's okay. You've been running around doing offline promotions lately. It's not an easy job."
"Heavy snow is force majeure. Just be careful on the road. It would be best if you can make it here in time. If you can't make it, then I will go there myself."
“Then the news will say that the crew of Crazy Stone encountered a snowstorm and missed offline promotional activities, but it will still attract people’s attention.”
