When the main creative team of "Flying Tigers" returned to Beijing, Du Wei's "Set!
It had already made a huge impact on the global music industry.
Not only did Li Mu use YYtunes to make 21
Guns and Set!
They even uploaded the original accompaniment of these two songs to encourage netizens around the world to cover the songs. At the same time, they encouraged netizens around the world to cover the songs.
In order to further promote the influence of these two songs, Li Mu not only promised to authorize anyone in the world to cover them, but also allowed them to use them in commercial performances.
If any singer, or amateur singer, wants to cover these two songs in a commercial performance, feel free to do so, no money.
This almost makes the global record companies bald.
If they had a song that made it to the top of the charts, they would have to follow up on all the commercial developments of the song. At the same time, they would have to defend their rights globally. If anyone accidentally infringed their rights, they would immediately file a lawsuit to protect their rights, in order to maximize their own interests.
However, when Li Mu got his hands on a good song, he didn't even bother with copyright protection. He just gave it out for everyone to use. This kind of playstyle was too willful.
The main reason was that they were rich, and they didn't care about the income from the songs. In terms of movie promotion and Du Wei's own influence, the income from the song copyright was negligible.
As the two songs continued to be a hit, Spielberg had already remade copies of "Rolling!"
Deep was added as the new closing song, and at the same time, the song 21 was added to the end credits.
Guns, Rolling
Songwriter information for "Deep."
Since the whole world wanted to know who the author of these two songs was, Li Mu was ready to put these two songs under his name. The advantage of being reborn was vividly reflected in this kind of thing.
The copy was completed, and all that was left was to wait for the official release.
At the same time, the test copy used in Hua Xia's roadshow was the original version.
Deep would only be released to the public when it was officially released.
The first roadshow was held in Yan Jing.
On the day of the roadshow, Li Mu also appeared on the scene.
He wasn't sure if he could attend all ten shows, but he had to attend the first show in Beijing!
For this roadshow, Li Mu also prepared a lot of resources. Not only did all the online media carry out a large-scale promotion, he also invited Chen Wan to be the host of this roadshow.
Chen Wan was a little uncertain about Li Mu's invitation. She asked Li Mu over the phone, "I'm an entertainment show host. Isn't it a little inappropriate for me to host such a serious movie roadshow?"
Li Mu smiled and said, "No way. Who said that a host can only have one hosting style? It's fine as long as the entertainment scene is entertaining and the serious scene is serious. This roadshow is very important to me. Sister Wan, you must come and help me. "
When Chen Wan heard this, she immediately agreed. "Then I'll let the station know. When the time comes, I'll definitely be there."
Li Mu heaved a sigh of relief.
He actually had a bit of selfishness.
He had invested a lot of time and resources into this roadshow. Whoever was the host would benefit from it.
Moreover, the exposure would be very high.
So in his mind, Chen Wan was the best candidate to be the live host.
…
On the day of the roadshow.
The largest screening hall in Yan Jing was full. Those who were invited were the existing veterans of the Flying Tigers, domestic and foreign media reporters, bigwigs in the film and television industry, Zhao Ziqiu, Chen Wan, Wei Lan and Li Mu's friends.
This time, countless big shots in the film and television industry wanted to come to support, but Li Mu only gave less than thirty seats to people in the industry. Other than the leaders of the higher departments, there were only about ten seats for people in the industry.
Among the ten people in the industry, there were two directors that Li Mu liked, Jiang Wen and Zhang Yimou. There were also a few actors that Li Mu liked, such as Ge You and Chen Daiming.
As for the bosses of the famous film and television companies, Li Mu didn't invite any of them.
Many bosses of film and television companies wanted to come to the roadshow, but Li Mu didn't agree to any of them.
In fact, he didn't like the entertainment industry, nor did he like to interact with people in the entertainment industry. On the one hand, he felt that the entertainment industry was too messy and utilitarian, and on the other hand, he really didn't like it.
He didn't have the hobby of Boss Ma, who often played with stars in the entertainment industry, or pulled a bunch of big stars to shoot a movie with him.
All his attention to the entertainment industry was on the positive side of the industry.
For example, a really good movie, or a really good piece of music, or a really good variety show.
As for the intrigue and flattery in the entertainment industry, he didn't want to get involved at all.
From this screening, the entertainment industry could feel Li Mu's attitude. He had some disdain for the entertainment industry, so he was only willing to interact with the real high-end players in the film and television industry and the music industry. As for the pompous vanity fair in the entertainment industry, he did not care about it at all.
…
Judging from the scale of this test screening and the powerful resources, it was absolutely unprecedented in the history of the country.
Just Li Mu alone was already a super big boss that the global film and television industry had to look up to, not to mention there was a group of famous Hollywood directors and actors to serve as a foil.
The roadshow started with the test screening.
Everyone handed in the recording equipment, and the media photographers all waited outside. The first screening of "Flying Tigers" was shown.
After the movie, the theater was filled with thunderous applause.
Everyone present was deeply shocked by this movie. When the lights came on, everyone stood up and applauded, and everyone had tears streaming down their faces.
At this time, Chen Wan walked into the theater with a microphone.
She stood at the exit and watched the movie, feeling especially touched.
When she came in front of the big screen, the thunderous applause did not seem to have weakened in the slightest.
Chen Wan wanted to say something, but she stopped, turned off the microphone, and applauded with everyone.
The applause lasted for a few minutes, then Chen Wan turned on the microphone and said to everyone present, "From everyone's warm applause, I can see that the movie" Flying Tigers "has really shocked and touched everyone here."
"This is a movie based on a completely real historical background, combining the deeds of many martyrs of the Flying Tigers. I once heard from the executive director of this movie that this movie almost completely restored the real scene of the battle between the Flying Tigers and the Japanese Army at that time. This has been affirmed by Hua Xia and many American Flying Tigers members. Here, on behalf of all the creators of this movie, I would like to pay the highest tribute to the martyrs of the Flying Tigers and to all the martyrs who fought for the country during the Anti-Japanese War."
The applause boomed again.
When the applause ended, Chen Wan said again, "The Anti-Japanese War is a scar on our people in Hua Xia, but it is also this scar that has always spurred us not to forget history, to work hard, to revitalize our country, and to cherish peace."
"Not forgetting history is not only a respect for human civilization, the country, and the civilization of the nation, but also a respect for these martyrs who fought for the country and sacrificed their lives for it."
"Today, we are also fortunate to invite ten representatives of the old Flying Tigers. They will be sitting in the middle of the theater today. Please give them your warmest applause!"
The ten white-haired old men stood up and saluted everyone at the same time.
Everyone looked at them and kept applauding and saluting them.
After the old Flying Tigers members sat down, Chen Wan then said, "For today's roadshow, we are also fortunate to invite all the main cast of the movie 'Flying Tigers'. Please give a round of applause to the director and screenwriter of 'Flying Tigers', Mr. Steven Spielberg, the leading actors Tom Hanks, Leonardo DiCaprio, Mr. Liu Ye, Anne Hathaway, and Ms. Du Wei!"
The applause boomed again. Spielberg led the group of leading actors and stepped onto the small stage from the side door.
This was the first roadshow for Steven Spielberg and a group of Hollywood stars in Hua Xia.
Tom Hanks, Leonardo, and Liu Ye were all wearing the aviator jackets from the movie, giving the audience the impression that three historical figures had walked out from the big screen.
Chen Wan immediately interviewed Spielberg. Her first question was, what was the turning point that made him decide to create such a movie?
Spielberg said, "Before making 'Flying Tigers', I was fortunate enough to know Mr. Lee Li Mu. Although Mr. Lee is very young, he is a person who respects history, justice, and peace very much. He has always hoped to show the history of the people of Hua Xia in World War II to the world through movies. As for me, I also have great respect for the history of World War II. As everyone knows, I have made many movies related to World War II. One of them is called 'Schindler's List', which describes the tragedy of the Jewish people being exterminated by Nazi Germany during World War II. I am a Jewish person myself."
At this point, Spielberg paused slightly and continued, "So, as a Hua Xia person, I can empathize with Mr. Lee's grief for the suffering of the people of Hua Xia. The people of Hua Xia and the Jewish people were both nations that suffered greatly during World War II, and they were both great nations that emerged victorious from this ordeal. So, when the two of us talked about this topic, we immediately felt like old friends at first sight. So, we decided to make a movie that truly reflected the experience of the people of Hua Xia during World War II."
"It just so happened that I had heard of the story of General Chennault and the Flying Tigers, so I felt that this was an excellent entry point. So, I wrote the script for 'Flying Tigers'. After I showed the script to Mr. Li Mu, he decided to make this movie on the spot."
Everyone gave Spielberg a respectful round of applause.
His words made many people immediately feel the same way about the experience of the Jewish people during World War II.
Two nations, in different continents, suffered the devastation of two independent countries at the same time, and both paid great sacrifices to win. Now, these two nations had ushered in the rise of the nation.
Spielberg then said, "During World War II, the people of Hua Xia, who were deeply involved in the war, also helped many Jews living in Hua Xia. This kindness has always been engraved in the hearts of the Jewish people. So, I personally hope to use this movie to express my gratitude to the people of Hua Xia!"
