Chapter 447: Intended for Reform 1
On the morning of the next day, a symposium on the Golden Rooster Award was opened.
In the evening, the 12th Golden Rooster Awards opened.
As a result, it is not surprising that the best picture went to the "Armageddon" series, and the best director was won by the director team of "Armageddon" and Sun Zhou of "Heart Fragrance".
The actor Wang Tiecheng and the heroine Song Xiaoying relied on "Smile in the Candlelight".
The male supporting role was vacant, and Ding Jiali took the female supporting role.
After the awards, there was originally a series of activities, but these actors and directors left everything they could, and it seemed to make room for others.
This other person includes: representatives of China Film, representatives of studios, representatives of provincial, municipal, and county-level distribution companies, representatives of printing plants, theater representatives, media representatives, etc.
This year's Golden Rooster has become non-existent. Because everyone knows that tomorrow and even the next month or two will be the real smoke of gunpowder and decide fate.
............
Early in the morning, Xu Fei came back from running, and the air in Guilin was super good.
The rooms in the guest house were empty, and most of the rest were raw faces. At the breakfast table, there was no desire to talk, or muttered a few words and quickly shut up, and the atmosphere was inexplicably tense.
Teacher Xu knew Li Ning, so he sat down at a table and said in a low voice: "Director Li, do you have any follow-up meetings?"
"Yes, what?"
"Can I get a special interview right to participate in every time. ”
"What do you want? "News Network" doesn't have it!"
Li Ning paused, and then said: "You can't help the meeting to study policy, anything else may work, what do you want to do?"
"Inaugural issue. ”
"Bold, bold!"
Li Ning knew that this product was restless, so he swept the restaurant and lowered his voice, "Look, there are five party representatives here, it doesn't matter if the printing factory wins, you have to give them money if you win or lose."
It doesn't matter if the theater is in the theater, just don't touch the immediate interests, it's better to die than to live.
Zhongying is waiting for news from the top and support from above, they are unwilling to reform, and I heard that a new leadership team will be formed recently.
The distribution company is a thorn, they do not belong to the radio and television system, but to the cultural department. The studio is the most urgent, but there is no bottom, and I don't know what it will be like to change it......
Ouch, it's very complicated! If you really want to get an inaugural issue, give me a copy first. ”
Well?
Li Ning looked at Xu Fei's surprised gaze and couldn't help but laugh twice.
He is a Qingying studio, staying out of the matter and eating melons happily.
At about nine o'clock in the morning, the group walked into the large conference room. Xu Fei and Yu Jiajia sat in the media seat, and there was a new leader, the deputy director of the Film Bureau, surnamed Dou.
Like Leader Tian, he belonged to the staunch reformers.
"Alright, let's get started. ”
Leader Tian knocked on the table and said, "I won't talk about the idea of the meeting, everyone knows it." Lao Dou, you can talk about the overall situation first. ”
"Okay. ”
Director Dou held the manuscript and said: "For a long time, we have been following the Soviet film system. There are 16 feature film studios, 1 science and education studio, 1 news documentary studio, 1 art studio, 1 translation studio, and 12 provincial-run studios.
Up to now, we have more than 3,000 regular cinemas, more than 30,000 auditoriums and clubs with screening functions, and more than 100,000 rural screening teams.
After the studio finished filming, it was handed over to China Film. China Film convened the provincial distribution companies to hold a viewing meeting, and the company reported the number of copies after watching it, and determined how much it needed in its own province. China Film then placed an order with the studio, and then distributed it from the provincial level to the municipal and county levels.
With such a vertical system, the same is true for fund recovery, counties and cities report the box office to the province, and the provincial company hands it over to China Film, which distributes it.
Everyone has a lot of opinions about China Film, when a film is released, you directly take 70% ......"
Director Dou paused suddenly, as if skipping a question, and said: "In the end, with 30% distribution, the benefits of all parties cannot be guaranteed, leading to a vicious circle." ”
As mentioned above, China Film's finance is connected to the Ministry of Finance.
The current box office is divided into appalling points, China Film takes seven, and the remaining three are not for theaters. 24% is reserved for the provincial issuing units for the construction of cinemas, and 6% is handed over to the provincial treasury.
(Document No. 198, 1979, spent two hours looking this up.) )
And only 30% of the seven in China Film can stay, and it will also be given to the distribution company, the printing factory, and the purchase of copies.
When it comes to this matter, it is always said that Zhongying takes the big head and takes the big head, but in fact, uh-huh......
"As of the beginning of November this year, 20.54 million movies have been screened nationwide, with an audience of 9.58 billion, 3.24 billion fewer than last year, and a box office income of 1.82 billion, a decrease of 340 million yuan.
Objectively, entertainment life is becoming more and more abundant, and television, video, laser, karaoke, dance halls, and the infiltration of smuggled films have caused a serious diversion of movie audiences.
Subjectively, our work does not keep up with the rapidly changing market situation, and the films we provide are not enjoyable and entertaining. Relying on the charm of the film itself, to attract the audience to pay for the cinema, from this point of view, we are not competitive enough......"
Director Dou read it from the beginning, and Mr. Xu understood it, and the more he understood, the more he realized how awesome and difficult this reform was.
Afterwards, Leader Tian said: "I have always adhered to one principle, whenever I take over a new work, I should focus on investigation and research within three years, and whenever an important new measure is introduced, it will generally be after three years.
In the past two years, I have inspected most of the studios, visited more than a dozen provincial distribution companies, and hundreds of movie theaters. The plan was to be implemented next year, but the measures taken by the central government in the first half of the year gave me confidence.
Chinese films, we must speed up reform!"
A few words set the tone, and then said: "Today's symposium, don't be cramped, speak freely, who will talk first?"
“......”
"I'll come first!"
After a short silence, an old man with a thick accent took the lead and said: "I don't want to say anything else, I just want to say that I don't pay enough attention to literary and artistic workers now."
I have been working for 50 years, and at that time, bamboo mats and zongli loved the film industry so much. Zongli has a meeting with artists almost every month, but where do you work?
When did the leaders of your radio and television care about movies?
Alas, I think that when I attended the party, Zongli held my hand, and my heart was rolling and tears were rippling......"
“......”
A crow quacked and flew by, leaving a row of black dots. It's embarrassing, but the seniority is too deep to say anything.
It was easy to wait for the old man to finish, no one responded, and after a while of silence, the representative of Changying Studio spoke: "Let me tell me." ”
He also prepared a draft, which seemed to look like it, "I was deeply touched when I talked about watching the film just now." I once participated in it with the Kyrgyzstan Provincial Distribution Company, and it was an eye-opener. People say that Su Province is the most powerful, and other families have to keep an eye on Mr. Yang, he thinks it's good, it's definitely good.
Hey, Mr. Yang is here, right?"
"Winning ......"
Yang Qingfeng, general manager of the Jiangsu Provincial Distribution Company, raised his hand and looked reserved.
Sioux Province is a major film consumption province, accounting for 10% of the country. If they order one copy, it means that the whole country will order ten.
"But we're not bad!"
The buddy's voice changed and came back, "Changying Studio now produces 20-30 movies a year, and each one can sell an average of 150-200 copies.
Each 10,500 is one or two million.
As for China Film, basically at the beginning of each year, we will first give us a film of 700,000 yuan as a reserve fund. Then settle the bill at the end of the year, refund more and make up for less. ”
Everyone frowned when they heard this, what are they doing with all this rambling?
"I have a list here, uh, China Film has bought 32 copies of movies in the past two years, a total of 5,120, and about 12 million ...... in arrears."
The representative of Changying Studio slapped the table and looked at the representative of China Film, "When will you finish?"
(Valentine's Day is stuffy at home!!)
