Since 1983

Chapter 762 We Carry the Flag

"Can you tell me the specific plan?"

"Hollywood is coming fiercely, and the market is about to open up. What is your source of confidence?"

"Are you sure you are the annual box office champion for five years?"

"Why five years?"

The scene of the press conference became chaotic, and the representatives of Tianxia lowered their hands and said: "Quiet, quiet, wait for me to finish speaking first. I repeat, it is indeed the box office champion for five years.

In addition to the Lunar New Year film "Fifty First Loves", next year director Zhang Yimou's new work "The Unknown" will be released. This is a unique movie that will definitely catch the audience's eyes.

in addition……"

He paused, then said with a smile: "In addition, let Director Wu introduce you."

After finishing speaking, he leaned back to indicate that he had finished speaking.

Wu Mengchen cleared his throat and said, "Okay, let me briefly talk. As early as the middle of the year, China Film Group and Tianxia Film and Television reached a cooperation to jointly create a film project.

Now I will report in detail to the media, audience, and friends who care about the film industry in society.

It is time to cross the new century, the 50-year Daqing is over, and China's accession to the WTO is expected... We are facing unprecedented changes, and all walks of life are preparing for it. Chinese films should also open a new chapter.

There have been a lot of pessimistic remarks recently, thinking that once Hollywood comes in, domestic films will die. We cannot deny the gap in strength, but we will never sit still.

So today I am announcing that we will launch the "Five-Year Film Plan for the Cross-Century". Starting from this year, at least one medium-cost or large-scale production with high commercial value and artistic level will be shot every year.

There is too much theory, what is needed now is actual combat training. We hope to take this opportunity to ignite the fire of Chinese film innovation..."

Buzz buzz!

Bottom exploded the pot again.

"That is to say, you have made at least five blockbuster films, right?"

"What's the difference between a medium budget and a big production?"

"You want to use blockbusters against blockbusters?"

"In the past few years, Chinese-style blockbusters have repeatedly failed. What do you think is the problem?"

"Okay, let me answer in unison..."

Old Wu waved his hand and said, "The so-called cost is determined according to the domestic environment, not according to Hollywood. Their ten million dollars is called a small production, and we consider it astronomical."

So the medium cost, our concept is more than 40 million. Big productions, maybe 100 million, or even more than 100 million.

At least one per year, yes, at least five.

Why make a blockbuster? As I said before, actual combat training, and in the current film market, only blockbuster films can bring audiences back to the theater..."

He dealt with it, and said: "The first work of this year is produced by China Film Group, Tianxia Film and Television, and Forbidden City Films. It is directed by Tsui Hark, starring Ge You, Liang Jiahui, and Gong Li. The title of the film is "A World Without Thieves" .

This is a medium cost with a budget of 60 million. "

In fact, it is 30-40 million, which is called 60 million.

Han Sanping also said: "The film will be launched soon, and there will be a launch ceremony. Everyone is welcome to participate. This film is adapted from a novel, and Teacher Xu Fei wrote the script..."

He introduces the recap and concludes with:

"Everything has two sides, good and bad.

If there is no strong external pressure, we may still be immersed in the glory of the past, unaware of change. It is because of Hollywood's covetousness that this cooperation has been made possible.

We just want to say one thing, Chinese films will definitely get rid of their burdens and start anew. There is no retreat, and they will never retreat! "

…………

As soon as the news came out, the two factions immediately attracted mutual criticism.

"Look at it, look at it! Mainland directors don't know how to make blockbuster films, don't they have to hire Hong Kong people?"

"Are you blind? It's good for Tsui Hark to make commercial films, but this lineup is obviously based on the mainland."

"Take your time, mainland directors are not educated like blockbuster films, don't tolerate outsiders and be harsh on your own people."

"If China Film Group casts alone, I'm still worried, but it doesn't matter if the world is added."

In the past two years, domestic films have declined. Only Chen Kaige's "Jing Ke Assassination of the King of Qin" was a hit, but it was fatal. The only effect was to lose confidence in domestic blockbusters.

"A World Without Thieves" is different, Mr. Xu's name shakes the rivers and lakes, Liang Jiahui is not bad, Ge You and Gong Li needless to say. Just looking at this lineup, most people are looking forward to it.

And this is the first, or medium cost.

...

a province.

A few friendly bosses were eating, with complicated and exciting moods.

"Do you think they will bluff?"

"Do you believe it yourself?"

"That also depends on the quality. Now it's making a lot of noise. If the filming fails, the reputation will be gone."

"Xu Fei wrote the script, and he is also the producer. The investment is all from the mainland, and the only actor is Hong Kong. Tsui Hark is here to work, so he must be the main one here.

When did that kid Xu Fei ever fail? Don't you guys forget "The Wind"? "

How can I forget "The Wind"!

That's the real thing, the guy who stole 100 million box office with his real skills.

"Then what should we do? Old Zhang and Old Wang have already surrendered, and it's a good thing they can embarrass themselves."

"It's exhausting! We need blockbuster movies, so don't they need theaters? We can talk about it when it's exhausted, and we can get more benefits."

"Okay, listen to you."

After a meal, several people dispersed.

One of the bosses immediately called: "Hey, Mr. Xu? Hey, you still remember me... It's okay, I just saw the news, you are so courageous, and it is a big production when you make a move.

Don't worry about "A World Without Thieves" when the time comes, I will never hold back. Don't worry about New Year's cards, you can do whatever you want! "

Hang up the phone, the boss scolded:

"Bangchui, why do you still listen to you? First make a statement and eat meat first, and then you will lose even the soup!"

...

Since the successful negotiations, the film industry has unexpectedly become the biggest hit.

Everyone discussed for half a month, one news after another, just as the "Five-Year Plan" was flashing, Xiangshan also joined in the fun. On the last day of November, Xiangshan Film and Television City released the news:

"From now on, the studio rental fee will be waived.

All film and TV drama crews, under the unified and coordinated arrangement, can use each scenic spot to shoot for free! "

Mr. Huang also stood up and showed his face, "According to our estimation, implementing this regulation will reduce our income by nearly ten million a year.

But as a person in the film and television industry, you can't just focus on immediate interests. All crews are welcome to come and do our best. We sincerely hope that Chinese film and television will do well. "

For a while, some foreign enemies invaded, and it felt like a united city.

…………

Entering December, the movie is still being discussed on the surface, but secretly they are already preparing to go.

It is snowing in the capital.

At the exit of the train station, a big-brained electrician stood alone by the side of the road, carrying a big bag. Looking at the black heads in the square in front of the station, I imagined that they were alien alien species, lurking in human society and plotting to invade.

The flow of thoughts is intense, and the real time will pass quickly.

When he was building himself to put on a high-tech armor and fight the aliens, a person finally ran over.

"Mr. Liu? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, there was an accident in the snow."

"It's okay, what's your last name?"

"Just call me Xiao Mo, I'll carry it for you."

The two got into the car, and the electrician sat in such a good car for the first time, his buttocks were very restless. Walking through the streets and alleys of the capital, it was interesting in the snow, and soon arrived at a hotel.

He was quite worried. You said that I was a fishing engineer in a power plant, so why did I come to the capital and have something to do with the movie?

(besides……)
