Chapter 759: The Great Change 1
Ging Fu Street, Central, Jiu Kee Beef Brisket.
The shop is small, the business hours are short, and the things are single to only sell brisket. But when Xu Fei came in, he felt that the heat wave of the crowd was coming, and the business was booming.
At the third table at the door, two men were sitting.
Half an hour ago, Xu Fei called Liang Jiahui, and he said that he was eating noodles with Leslie Cheung. It's like asking a friend to dinner, and the friend is having dinner with another friend, so he asks the friend's friend to eat with him.
"Mr. Xu, I've heard of you for a long time, I didn't expect to be so handsome!"
Leslie Cheung stood up, fluent Mandarin, without any politeness.
"What do you mean, do they say I'm not handsome?"
"Well, I've always complimented you on your handsomeness. Maybe Maggie, or what Mr. Ge said. ”
Liang Jiahui hurriedly brushed it off and invited him to a seat: "Stewed beef brisket, curry beef brisket, net beef brisket, order it yourself!"
Xu Fei looked at the menu, poor and pitiful, and ordered a stewed beef brisket noodles, an oyster sauce lettuce, and a cup of frozen milk tea...... Oyster sauce lettuce, literally.
"You often come here to eat?"
"Come often, you have to occupy a place here, otherwise Alan Tam will rob me. "Leslie Cheung plays his own stalks.
"Ha, what Mr. Zhang said is interesting. ”
"Mr. Zhang......"
Liang Jiahui said happily: "He is usually called his brother, but I haven't heard this kind of formal title for a long time." ”
"Then my name is Leslie, don't you mind?"
"It doesn't matter, it's just a name. ”
Xu Fei has been wearing it for so long, and he has communicated with Leslie Cheung for the first time.
He is of medium height, with a slightly dark skin, and at the age of 43, he looks very young, especially in his eyes. This is a mythical character, just like Huang Jiaju, but their achievements are undeniable.
In fact, Leslie Cheung's public opinion situation in Hong Kong has always been bad, and his sexual orientation has been ridiculed from time to time, especially after he made a public statement.
Not long after, the food is served.
"I have admired the name for a long time, and replaced wine with tea. ”
Xu Fei touched him with frozen milk tea, and said with a smile: "Although it is the first time we meet, it is not a stranger." "Farewell My Concubine", "Fengyue" and "Red Lovers" have all been released in the mainland. ”
"You've seen them all?"
"Of course, I'm curious why you take so many mainland movies?"
"It feels different, the mainland is completely different from the style of Hong Kong. If I might not have had anything in the early years, now I know how to make some choices and make more good works. ”
"It's called an old artist. ”
"Hey, don't listen to him. He knows best, knows best, how to say that word......"
Liang Jiahui gestured his hands and said, "Flicker, he is the best at fooling people!" Let me tell you, Mr. Xu can't afford to be early, he simply came to have a meal, I don't believe it. ”
"Tsk, am I such a vulgar person?"
Xu Fei was unhappy and retorted: "Did I come to dinner to invite him to film? At least not this year." ”
"Ha, you're an interesting person! Maggie and Jiahui both said that you are super capable. ”
"That's an opportunity to work together. ”
"Okay. ”
Both of them finished eating, and they deliberately stayed with them for a while, and Mr. Xu was embarrassed to sit more after eating, shook hands and broke up.
Return to the hotel.
Xu Fei washed and took a bath, lay on the bed and watched TV, thinking back to Leslie Cheung's state, he felt quite good, and he was very suitable for the protagonist of his new plan.
It's not "No Thieves in the World", this has already set Liang Jiahui.
........................
On November 10, the Lao Mei delegation arrived in Beijing.
Originally scheduled to end in two days, it turned out to be a six-day delay.
Afternoon, November 15th.
The capital is in winter, and the climate is cold. When Leader Tian came out of the building of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation on East Chang'an Avenue, his expression was slightly tragic. As head of the competent unit, he was involved in the signing process of the film project.
Five years ago, he started with 10 Hollywood blockbusters, but the scenario was different.
At that time, in order to reform and stimulate the market, now it is a confrontation between the two countries, and every move, every line and word is carried out with a plan for the next few decades.
Forced to give in, the four words are simple and full of humiliation.
"Lao Tian, what are we going to do next?"
"Organize learning, study policies, and issue documents for implementation next year. ”
"But this clause ......"
"It's a fact, what else can you say? Let the people discuss, don't they like to hold seminars?"
Leader Tian got into the car, and the people who accompanied him were full of worry and sighed: "The Chinese film market has to change its surname." ”
......
Medium Shadow.
The two heads waited anxiously.
"It's out! The press release is out!"
A person broke into the house with a newspaper, Wu Mengchen hurriedly took it over and took a look:
"On November 15, the two sides signed a bilateral agreement.
This negotiation is not only commercially important, but also very important for the development of the global economy and has far-reaching strategic significance......"
"Oh, I'm not going to watch this!" Old Wu said urgently.
"It's coming, it's coming! The internal notice just sent by Radio and Television!"
Another person ran in, and Lao Wu and Han Sanping watched together:
"Foreign investment is allowed to enter China's film projection industry to build, renovate or operate cinemas on the condition that the shareholding does not exceed 49%.
20 pieces are allowed to be imported each year. ”
“......”
After a moment of silence, Han Sanping shook his head: "20, doubled! Can we have 10 movies a year, oh no, 5 competitive movies?"
"The theater was really opened, but fortunately foreign holdings were not allowed, otherwise our necks would have been stuck. ”
Wu Mengchen also sighed, and asked again: "Has Xu Fei come back?"
"Just got back from Hong Kong. ”
......
In the absence of a deliberate official ban, some news quickly spread among the people.
There was an uproar in the film industry, with one seminar after another, and one newspaper after another, with the theme: "How should the film industry deal with the WTO?"
"This move is tantamount to luring a wolf into the house, and its consequences will directly lead to the complete destruction of Chinese films!
Where will foreign wolves come from?
I think the first is to use foreign films to seize China's cinemas and audio-visual products, forcing the Chinese film industry to death;
the second is to invest in the renovation and construction of new high-end cinemas, import foreign cinema management models and experience, and control the exhibition industry;
Third, foreign producers have invested in Chinese films or co-produced films with China, resulting in the decline of Chinese national films, and at the same time, attracting outstanding Chinese filmmakers to sign contracts with them with high remuneration to build a fortress of talents.
Under the three controls, the film market will finally be changed to a "foreign" surname!"
Many of them are pessimistic, indignant, and powerless views, and there are many people who are enthusiastic, positive, and expectant.
The two sides are distinct:
"At that time, I didn't have a job, and "The End of the World" was released in the city where I went to school, and it was like a festival, and there were long-lost propaganda trucks with loudspeakers on the streets, shouting back and forth on the streets.
You can't help but feel itchy, even if you are shy, you have to squeeze out a ticket money, sit in the uncomfortable movie theater and enjoy a feast made by the world film kingdom today.
The result was dumbfounded and shocked. The movie was made like this, so it naturally followed the next one, and then the next one......
Now I'm a journalist, and I also saw big ships last year.
I sincerely cheer and support this decision, cinema knows no borders, and from now on we can enjoy more fruitful achievements of modern film art in sync with the world.
We're done with the history of being a second-class audience!"
(And ...... )
