Xiang Nan agreed to renew his contract with Maimiao Records so easily, which surprised many outside record companies.
They originally wanted to contact Xiang Nan to see if they could poach Mai Miao. But they didn't expect that the contract had already been signed before they took action.
They couldn't help but sigh, and then they were curious about what conditions Maimiao Records offered Xiang Nan that they couldn't refuse, so that he could sign the contract so happily.
In fact, Xiang Nan signed a contract with Maimiao Records without making many changes. We still signed a five-album contract, and Maimiao Records was still responsible for promotion and distribution.
But the salary has been greatly improved. Previously, Xiang Nan and Mai Miao had two or three records. For an album, Xiang Nan gets 40% and Mai Miao gets 60%. Now it has been changed to a 50-50 split, with the proceeds divided equally.
In this way, Xiang Nan can earn two to three yuan more from one album. This kind of division is quite good.
…
After signing the contract and getting rid of the trouble, the new album will continue.
In the new album, Xiang Nan still focuses on R&B music style, and adds a little hip-hop elements, striving to give fans more freshness.
"East Wind Breaks", "Class Two of Three Years", "In the Name of the Father", "Gecko Walking", "My Microphone", "Exclusive Angel", "Nunchucks", "Missing is a Disease", "Love" I don't want to leave"...
Classic songs were carefully selected and stuffed into the new album.
…
While Xiang Nan was busy preparing for the new album, Zhou Xun also returned to Maimiao Records, often staying in the recording room and pretending to meet Xiang Nan by chance.
Her crazy behavior made Xiang Nan very uncomfortable.
Firstly, he didn't like Zhou Xun and didn't like getting together with her; secondly, her excessive behavior had caused trouble to him.
The outside media has paid attention to this matter and almost reported it. Fortunately, Youth to Youth Studio used public relations in time to suppress this report.
Otherwise, by then, the news that "Zhou Xun and Yuan Hua fell in love because of drama, and fake drama is real" will spread everywhere. How should he explain to Qiu Ya.
Therefore, in order to avoid Zhou Xun, Xiang Nan had to suspend the recording of his fifth album "Exclusive Angel" and go to Hengdian to film the new drama "Emperor of the Han Dynasty".
It tells the story of Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who went through many obstacles and beheaded generals, defeated powerful enemies, ascended to the throne, and became the emperor of the Han Dynasty.
Xiang Nan originally didn't want to take on a costume drama, but the matter was so urgent that he couldn't care less.
…
After arriving in Hengdian, Xiang Nan reported to the team and met with the director, screenwriter, producer, and several main actors.
"Uncle Ming, it's a pleasure to work with you again." He smiled and shook hands with Chen Daoming, who played Dongfang Shuo in the play. Other main actors include Alyssa Chia, Chen Zihan, Liu Yijun, etc.
Xiang Nan and Liu Yijun had worked together before in "Young Man Bao Qingtian", so they were not strangers to each other. After meeting, they felt particularly cordial.
"Yuan Shuai, I heard that Yanjing Television Center is going to start filming "Young Man Bao Qingtian 2", have you been contacted?" Liu Yijun asked curiously.
"Not yet." Xiang Nan waved his hand, "Have you been contacted?"
"Not with me either. I received news that they seem to be replacing a new batch of actors." Liu Yijun said displeased.
"Young Man Bao Qingtian" achieved such impressive results due to the hard work of this group of actors. But the second part actually had to change the cast, which was really burning a bridge!
"Why is this? Are you afraid that we will increase the salary?" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "No way, we made a lot of money for it last year."
"That's right. It ranked first in the ratings for the whole year, and the copyright alone was sold for tens of millions." Liu Yijun said angrily, "So what if we give you a little more pay, you're stingy."
"Don't be angry." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "It doesn't matter if it wants to invite you or not. Anyway, if it doesn't invite you, I won't be short of scenes."
"I'm not short of filming, but I can't stand their behavior of burning bridges." Liu Yijun said angrily.
…
After a period of preparation in Hengdian, the filming of "Emperor of the Han Dynasty" officially started.
At the same time, the Republic of China idol love drama "Like Rain, Like Fog and Like Wind" starring Xiang Nan, Lu Yi, Zhou Xun, Li Xiaoran, etc. was officially broadcast on Hujiang Satellite TV.
Once aired, this TV series was well received.
One thing is that the cast is strong, including Xiang Nan, Lu Yi, Zhou Xun, Luo Haiqiong, Li Xiaoran... these are all popular actors. Xiang Nan and Lu Yi, in particular, can be regarded as top-notch young actors in the Mainland, with amazing ratings appeal;
The second piece of clothing is exquisitely styled. It not only has the characteristics of the Republic of China period in the 1920s and 1930s, but also has fashion elements, making the pictures of the series very beautiful, and every frame is like an oil painting;
The three stories are written by the well-known screenwriter Zhang Yongchen, and the scripts are first-rate and fascinating. Coupled with the excellent performances of all powerful and idol actors, it is naturally full of fun to watch.
After the broadcast, the ratings have been rising, reaching more than 8.9%, giving Hujiang Satellite TV a good start.
…
The popularity of "Like Rain, Like Fog and Like Wind" has also made Xiang Nan, Lu Yi, Zhou Xun, Li Xiaoran, Luo Haiqiong and others soar in popularity.
In particular, the couple Xiang Nan and Zhou Xun are the most loved by the audience because their emotional line is so sad and brought tears to many viewers.
Just when the audience felt deeply unhappy about the couple who loved each other deeply but could not be together in the end, a piece of news made them ecstatic.
It turns out that in order to promote this drama, Hujiang TV specially invited Xiang Nan, Lu Yi, Zhou Xun and others to appear on the show to promote it. Just when the host asked them questions, Zhou Xun once again expressed his love to Xiang Nan in front of the entire audience.
Her expression of love immediately caused the whole audience to burst into uproar and thunderous applause, but it also put Xiang Nan on fire and unable to get off the stage.
In order to ensure perfect publicity effect, Xiang Nan had no choice but to accept her love and express his feelings for her as well. He also held hands with her intimately in front of the entire audience. The audience was excited for a while.
But when they returned to the backstage, Xiang Nan suddenly turned black.
He did not agree with Zhou Xun's courtship method of killing first and showing off later, and moral kidnapping.
For this reason, he didn't even attend Lu Yi Zhangluo's dinner party and took a plane directly back to Hengdian.
On the way, he also called Qiu Ya, Wang Fei, Gao Yuanyuan and others to explain everything, which took a lot of time.
But misfortune depends on blessing. Although this storm caught him off guard, it achieved amazing publicity effects.
The next day, almost all major media and entertainment magazines reported this incident. Especially on major portal websites, forums, and BBS, discussions are extremely hot.
"Yuan Hua and Zhou Xun are truly a golden couple!"
"Digging the grave: Zhou Xun had early signs that he liked Yuan Hua. When he was interviewed by reporters in 1999, he said that he liked Yuan Hua's songs~"
"Breaking news: Yuan Hua's fifth album will include songs performed by him and Zhou Xun."
This kind of continuous reports and discussions has also caused the ratings of "Like Rain, Like Fog and Like Wind" to rise further. It will soon break through the 10% mark and is expected to top the annual ratings ranking.
