Since 1983

Mainland film production units have undergone a series of changes.

At first, it was the eight major studios represented by Beiying, Changying, and Shanghai Film, and later it was the five kings of Huayi, Bona, Wanda, Guangguang, and LeTV.

Eventually it evolved into the Yangtze River Delta versus the Pearl River Delta with Ali and Penguin as the leaders.

China Film has always sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.

At present, it is the stage when studios are withdrawing from the stage and private enterprises are rising. But LeTV has not yet been established, Wang Changtian is under Xu Fei, Lao Wang is still struggling, Huayi and Bona are directly kicked out.

There are not many heavenly kings, only one family under heaven, and it will last for a long time.

...

third night.

The stars are busy with work, and their loose hair is dry. The remaining dozen bigwigs who can represent the Hong Kong film industry stayed one more night just for the banquet.

It was about seven o'clock, and it was still dark.

The drizzle was lingering, and a string of commercial vehicles stopped at the entrance of the VIP building.

Mr. Lin, Boss Yang and others boarded the car, went west along Chang'an Avenue, and passed Tiananmen Square. After driving for ten minutes, I stopped at the entrance of an alley.

Looking up, I saw a five-entry mansion with green tiles and red walls, stone lions on the left and right, and red lanterns.

The front door of Zhuqi was closed tightly, and the waiter led the small door in. The courtyard is deep, quiet and pleasant, and the vegetation, trees, mountains and rocks are well organized, and guests occasionally shuttle through it.

It is the China Association.

This group of people dominated one side, so I was not surprised, but I saw two people standing in front of me as I walked. I don't know one, and the other is very famous in Hong Kong.

The boss here, Deng Yongqiang.

"Mr. Deng!"

Mr. Lin from Huanya was the first to greet, and the other party took a look: "Oh, a rare guest."

Most of the two parties were acquainted, and after a few pleasantries, Deng Yongqiang said with a smile: "It turned out that you were the ones who invited him, and he was inside."

A group of people continued to walk in, and finally arrived at a hall.

The rectangular table, the seats are divided into two sides, and the all wooden furnishings look like antiques. The light is soft and comfortable, delicate and small palace lantern.

Sitting at the top was a man in his thirties, handsome and unrestrained, with an extraordinary bearing. Standing behind him was an expressionless man, who was either an assistant or a bodyguard.

Expressionless: I am Xiao Mo.

As soon as they entered the room, Xu Fei got up, and Wen Jun acted as a middleman, introducing them back and forth.

"Long-awaited."

"Nice to meet you."

"Everyone please sit down."

Everyone is also looking at him, most of them have never been in contact with him, they only feel young and calm.

"This visit to Beijing, I was also invited to attend, but I declined. It may be a bit presumptuous to say, I don't think there will be any results at all, but we are different..."

The dishes haven't been served yet, everyone has a cup of tea. Xu Fei compared each other and said with a smile: "People talk to people, that's how we can talk."

"..."

Just started, the guests are waiting and watching. Several of them looked at each other, and Mr. Lin said: "That's the reason, we are new here, so we are at a loss.

Mr. Xu is an industry leader in the mainland, and he hopes to have some substantive agreements. "

"You're welcome, let's chat while eating."

Then serve.

Chatting and spanking, some are not, and there is no real topic. Xu Fei was different from Lao Song. Watching Mr. Lin, Boss Yang, Brother Long Wu and others, he made up a Hong Kong entertainment novel every minute.

Hong Kong films have been mixed up to now, and there are not many companies that maintain their vitality.

Brother Longwu's China Star, which acquired Galaxy before, is considered to be the most creative. There are also Master Lin's Huanya, Lin Xiaoming's Huanyu, Boss Yang's Emperor, and Yindu, just a few.

There are fewer in the mainland, China Film and Tianxia.

The Hong Kong side realized it later, oh, it was all nonsense before! This is the moment.

After eating and drinking, the waiter came in and removed the plates, and each had a cup of tea.

Xu Fei glanced, Deng Yongqiang is still not authentic, this kind of environment should be accompanied by Empress Dowager Cixi, playing and singing in the style of court music and dancing, let's get married first!

"Everyone participated in the three-day symposium, what do you think?"

"Co-production."

"Obviously, a co-production."

"What is Mr. Xu's high opinion?"

"If there is no high opinion, co-productions must be the mainstream, and everyone will be happy if they make money."

He paused and said with a smile: "The agreement stipulates that co-produced films can be released as mainland films, everyone understands. What I want to say is that currently the world has the largest private distribution company with the highest share of accounts.

Ordinary films are 43%, and for key films such as "Hero", we can talk about 48%-50%. And our distribution fee has always been reasonable, around 10%.

Everyone can consider it. "

Without waiting for a response, he continued: "The agreement also stipulates that the proportion of main actors from the mainland should not be less than one-third of the total number of main actors in the film; the story is not limited to taking place in the mainland, and the plot or main characters must be related to the mainland.

But there is no official regulation on the investment ratio, what do you think? "

"..."

For those present here who have experienced the rivers and lakes, this is by no means a question of "whoever contributes the most will have the most say".

Huang Baiming rolled his small eyes behind the lens, and said with a smile: "There is a good saying just now, everyone is happy if they make money.

How to make money is naturally a high box office.

Mr. Xu is well versed in this. I have watched several of the films you invested in, especially "Hero". They are all big stars. Stars are the most direct guarantee for the box office. Wow, Hong Kong doesn’t have to worry about it. "

Boss Yang understood in seconds, and continued: "The co-productions I understand mean that the directors of each show their strengths and work together.

Hong Kong provides talents and experience to help the development of films in the mainland. The mainland has abundant resources and manpower, and the economy is also taking off. It is a perfect match. "

"So if you want to make money, you have to look at quality and stars.

Hong Kong has Zhou Runfa, Zhang Manyu, Zhou Xingchi, Zhang Baizhi... and directors Johnnie To, Chen Kexin, Wang Jing and so on. We are very willing to cooperate deeply with colleagues in the Mainland to explore the market. " Brother Long Wu said.

The boss wants to make money, but they also have to consider the practitioners and lead everyone to eat.

"..."

Xu Fei looked at them and said, after finishing speaking, he said: "What you guys mean is that we don't consider the proportion of capital contribution, but we must invite Hong Kong directors, Hong Kong stars, and Hong Kong practitioners. show?"

"Exaggerated, exaggerated."

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Wen Jun quickly smoothed things over: "Follow the rules! It doesn't mean that there are no mainlanders."

"Yes, we can talk about it!"

Mr. Lin thought he wanted to support the role, and said with a smile: "If you cooperate with Mr. Xu, the actor's matter is easy to discuss."

"Yes, Zhang Ziyi and Zhou Xun of your company are very good."

After talking a lot, I actually want to complicate the problem and get more benefits.

As everyone knows, someone didn't even want to break up.

Xu Fei took a sip of his tea and put down his cup: "Since there are regulations, they should be dealt with according to the regulations. If there are no regulations, follow the industry's custom.

You keep saying that you don't mention the capital ratio, so I want to ask, how will the profit be divided? Divide casually?

Whoever invests more, whoever makes the request, this is the basic. "

"Actors act according to the regulations, and the leading roles in the mainland should not be less than one-third.

The leading role is not a supporting role, not a secondary role, please stop talking about 20 years in the industry, don't make some uncomfortable jokes. "

"Inland elements are more mysterious, slowly find the feeling in the running-in, let's not talk about it right now."

He said in one breath: "Since you have decided to make a co-production, it's best to establish a common rule, lest you forget it, make a mistake, make a mistake, and beg you to beg when you get beaten, everyone will be ugly."

"..."

"..."

"After I finish speaking, what do you guys think?"
