Chapter 65: On the Bar (Part 1) (5/5)
After all, the Changchun Film Festival was established by the General Administration, which is equivalent to the biological son...
How can we increase the attention of the Changzhou Film Festival?
Just learn from the entire forum unit of the Shanghai Film Festival and invite a bunch of industry leaders to discuss Chinese films!
It's useless, because the next General Administration might go to Xi'an...
Changying said he would never die and said he would never live. He could only play the old sign of the cradle of the film in New China. Changying has been calling for revitalizing Changying for several years, but there was no response. He organized Universal Studios and was actually in Hainan...
Alas, Changchun is a place with potential to become a film and television industry base. There is a Changchun Film Studio, which has produced many excellent films here...
Back then, you built a film and television base, and now you can completely become a film and television base in Nanhengdian, but you just took the lead and built Changying Century City!
What is this? This is a theme park with various film technologies. In 2003, you said that this technology is advanced. Now the problem is coming. It has been almost 10 years and the things inside are not updated. Will it become a museum in 2009?
If a film and television base was built, it would be great. There were natural snow scenes here without artificial snow; there were Manchuria ruins here, so it wouldn’t be so fake when shooting anti-Japanese war films...
Why doesn’t Shen Mengxi build a film and television city in Changchun?
I can't invest in Shanhaiguan. Have you heard of it?
...
"De-filmization is the company's core business, because Huayi started out with movies.
However, I think it is definitely not enough to make movies. I understand movie products. Movie products are indeed not as good as you can control them. Just say that you will sell well after you finish shooting! :(/
For example, if you want to shoot five movies this year, you can shoot five movies. First, the director's preparation. It is a completely artistic creation. If your script is not good, you dare not turn on it? Once you dare not turn on it, there will be no such movie next year.
For example, Tsui Hark wants to film "Die Dee" this year, but the script of "Die Dee" is just not satisfied? How could you play "Die Dee 2" next year?
Suppose Feng Xiaogang, are you looking forward to having a movie this year? But Xiaogang is also very anxious, but he just doesn’t have a mature story? Or something mature? He just wants to get a gap!"
Huang Zhongjun continued: "This is why we need to de-movie production. We must find ways to find our great culture and entertainment outside of the movie. I think Huayi is not the Huayi brothers if it doesn't make movies, but Huayi brothers only make movies? Not the Huayi brothers!"
"In the past 16 years since Huayi was established, how many times has it been the box office champion? We have a director who has been unbeaten in filming more than a dozen movies, which is almost none of them in the world. Moreover, Huayi Brothers had a box office of 1.5 billion last year, accounting for 14% of the share, which exceeds Disney's share in the United States!"
Film Forum? Huang Zhongjun first spoke: "Is it a good thing to snatch market share by other companies? I feel it's easy. Many people think it's a bit vague to say this? I really think that movies are like this.
I think I am already very lucky? I can choose such an industry in my life? I am actually in a very leading position in this industry and I am very lucky.
I am also in a high place and I hope that there will be very good companies and directors who make good films, such as Wang Changtian of Light, Yu Dong of Bona, and Mengxi. From my heart, I don’t want competition to turn us from good friends to enemies. I think normal business competition is what is necessary, and sometimes it is necessary in local wars, and only competition can lead to progress. In fact, everyone is for this industry!”
Chen Mengxi frowned slightly, where is this?
Isn't you telling you about the various defeats caused by Hollywood in Chinese movies...
Why did it blow the 'de-movie'?
Lao Wang also chatted a few times: "As the creative center of a project, the director should consider all levels. However, most directors' cognition is not complete enough. We want to help them, and we often propose that an actor should be replaced."
"Movies are art, but doing movies is a business, and new directors must be cultivated. Helping new directors sometimes requires a price to pay. The box office of "The Man" at the beginning of the year failed, but we will not give up!"
"I choose a new director and my attitude must be sincere and responsible. I cannot lower the standards for making movies by myself in order to make money."
"In the future, light will become a producer company, which is also the industrial model of the best film company."
"Last year, Mengxi calculated the calculations with me. China released 500 to 600 movies every year, and there are more than 1,000 movies submitted for review. We need at least more than 200 new directors, but I watched it in the entire industry. There are only about 100 directors available in the market, and among them, there may be only fifty or sixty people who can cooperate with Light. The gap in good directors is so big that it can be seen from this. In addition to supporting new directors, we will also train 20 film producers and 10 online drama producers."
"When it comes to cultivating new directors, Mengxi has the most say. All his movies are basically newcomers. Of course, they should not be considered new directors now..."
Chen Mengxi was originally eating melons quietly, but the topic turned to him. He picked up the microphone: "You should remember the way I became famous, right?"
"Writing a book?"
"Ghost Blows Out the Light?"
"No!" Chen Mengxi shook her head: "It was the script "Rose Red Lotus" bought by director Li Shaohong. This thing taught me a lesson. First, in front of the big director, the screenwriter had no say at all; second, the so-called big director is really behind the times. She made "Rose Red Lotus" messy, the audience couldn't understand it at all, and the market would not accept it. On the contrary, I served as the producer of the Korean version of "Rose Red Lotus", and I looked for a new director. I stared at it from beginning to end. After the release, the market feedback was very good, and was valued by Hollywood, so I bought the adaptation rights..."
"Since then, I decided that if I do a movie, I will definitely use a new director!"
"Why do I dare to use it? Maybe it's because I understand movies... With me here, I can guarantee that the movies are works above the passing line!"
Chen Mengxi glanced at Huang Zhongjun and reminded: "A content production company famous for film production, I can't think of any reason to exclude film production from core business. No matter how good your other business is, the audience's perception of you is still just a film company..."
Huang Zhongjun smiled, but no response...
Maybe I think Chen Mengxi doesn’t know how to run a business.
...
Chen Mengxi continued: "In fact, Hollywood is not as terrible as everyone imagines. It is also the 28th law. 20% of good movies, 80% of them are bad movies that are not profitable or ordinary movies."
"Those who can introduce mainland China are large productions and excellent resources. Of course, it has a very mature typological market. Speaking of this, can I make a suggestion?"
“What suggestions?”
"It is just that the General Administration can treat everyone equally, at least the imported films can be released, and we can also release them as we take photos?"
