Chapter Ninety-Six: Yan Shuangying

"With the copyright in hand, there is also the advantage that you can also sell the film to foreign companies and earn foreign exchange. Xu Wangqiu looked at the director present and said slowly, "When I was filming "Hoe Rape", it happened that a crew from Dongying came to visit the class, and one of the producers of Dongying saw the sample film and directly bid $200,000 to buy the copyright of the movie. If we talk about it again, 5, 600,000, or even higher, is entirely possible. Since everyone in Dongying wants to buy it, other national and local film companies may also buy it. If you go to our film festival or the foreign film trading market, it is entirely possible to earn back more foreign exchange. ”

Xu Shangchu watched hundreds of thousands of dollars fly away, and he was depressed for a long time because of this matter. Now when he heard Xu Wangqiu bring up the old matter again, he slapped the table and said loudly: "It's obviously our film, and we can make foreign exchange, but the money was taken away by China Film, and we can't get a cent! Their China Film Company is even more ruthless than Huang Shiren!"

Other film studios have more or less exported films, such as Dongying's "Liu Sanjie", which once caused a sensation in Southeast Asia, and was released three times in Xiangjiang alone. Last year, "Liu Sanjie" was released in Xiangjiang for the third time, once again setting off a frenzy of movie-watching and achieving good results of more than 800,000 people.

When several factory directors heard Xu Shangchu's words, they couldn't help but nod slightly, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is meat!

Xu Wangqiu continued: """Hoe Rape" can sell hundreds of thousands in Dongying, and in Southeast Asia, Europe, and the United States, it is completely possible to sell one or two million, or even more. There are many Chinese abroad who are willing to watch Chinese movies, and many foreigners are interested in China and Chinese history. It's possible for our films to sell. As long as our films can be sold, all we earn back is foreign exchange! Therefore, copyright is really very important, and we must grasp it in our hands. ”

The directors of several film studios are completely aware of the importance of copyright, and they have shouted: "The copyright must belong to our film factory, not to China Film Company." "Copyright is very important, and it must not be given to China Film. "The right to distribute the film is given to China Film, and the copyright must belong to us!"

Wang Yang is a person who loves talents very much, as long as they are talents, he will always try his best to dig them up to Beiying by all means. When he watched the first batch of samples of "Little Flower", he saw Liu Xiaoqing and felt that this actor had a future, so he immediately said to the people in the factory: "Keep this actor!" But Liu Xiaoqing is from the Rongcheng Military Region Repertory Troupe, and the unit will not let go. Wang Yang held a special meeting to study the combat plan for Liu Xiaoqing's transfer, and asked his old comrades-in-arms and superiors of the Rongcheng Military Region for help. Under the powerful and meticulous offensive of Beiying, the repertory troupe could not resist and offered a transfer fee of 70,000 yuan. Wang Yang immediately made a decision: "Give them 80,000 yuan, so that they have nothing to say." ”

Now seeing that Xu Wangqiu is young but has such knowledge, and the movie is very good, Wang Yang suddenly fell in love with talent: "Wangqiu, when you graduate, you must come to our Beiying, and I will let you be the director of the creative studio at that time." ”

As soon as Zhang Xiaoping heard this, he shouted: "I said Wang Yang, your hand is too long! Wangqiu is a seedling that our Xiuying Studio has worked so hard to cultivate, do you know how much effort and effort we have spent cultivating him? Now that we have cultivated it, you want to reach out and pick peaches, this is too much, right? You Beijing Film Studio four handsome, four middle marshal, four small handsome, and Xie Tieli, you have so many talents, you still want to rob our people!"

Xu Wangqiu didn't speak, but he was thinking in his heart whether I was obviously good at crossing, when did I become your cultivator?

Wang Yang didn't expect Zhang Xiaoping to react so much, and he was dizzy by this call. He is a person who loves talents, how can he give up easily. But he didn't say it: "I'll just say this, and I see how excited you are." This is the treasure of your show studio, I just don't move. ”

Zhang Xiaoping glared at several other factory directors like a hen guarding her chicks: "You can't talk about Qiu's idea!"

Su Yun and the others smiled when they heard this: "Okay, okay, I won't fight his idea." "We won't move the baby of your show studio. "How dare we rob your Lao Zhang!"

However, Xu Shangchu refused without hesitation: "Wangqiu is Su Zhensheng's apprentice, and he is also the child brought out by our Demon Capital Movie, and Wangqiu's first part is also in our Magic Shadow Factory." Up and down our factory, even the leaders of the Modu Film Bureau admired Wangqiu very much. On the issue of Wangqiu, we will definitely fight. ”

Zhang Xiaoping couldn't help but say: "Lao Xu, how many excellent directors do you have in the Magic Shadow Factory? And we finally came out of Wangqiu such a person, you actually came to rob it, and you still let us live?"

Xu Shangchu did not back down: "There are many directors in our factory, but most of them are old, and there are also young directors, but there are such excellent young directors as Wangqiu, we really don't have them in the Magic Film Studio, and we will definitely not let it go on this issue." ”

Su Bai touched Xu Wangqiu with his arm and winked at him, I didn't expect you to be quite popular!

Xu Wangqiu raised his eyebrows proudly, there is no way, being handsome is so popular.

Su Yun saw that Zhang Xiaoping was going to quarrel with Xu Shangchu, so he hurriedly persuaded: "Okay, okay! What are you two arguing about? Wangqiu is not only a sophomore? It is still very early to graduate; what is the use of you arguing now, let's talk about it when the time comes." Tomorrow's meeting is the focus, and it's about the future of each of our plants. ”

Zhang Xiaoping and Xu Shangchu felt that Su Yun's words made sense, so they stopped arguing and continued to discuss the issue of film system reform. However, they all made up their minds to pull Xu Wangqiu to their own factory. Xu Wangqiu is an extremely rare talent, as long as he can be pulled into the factory, there will be no good movies in the factory in the next ten or even twenty years.

At the end of dinner, Xu Wangqiu and Zhang Xiaoping sent Su Bai back to school and sat by Weiming Lake to talk about cooperation. Zhang Xiaoping values Xu Wangqiu very much and hopes that Xiuying Studio will shoot his new film. Xu Wangqiu himself also plans to return to Xiuying Studio after graduation, and of course he is willing to cooperate with Xiuying Studio.

In recent days, Xu Wangqiu has been thinking about what to shoot next. After thinking about it, he thought of the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, and felt that it would be good to make a movie that depicted the war against Vietnam. The movie can not only be made popular and good-looking, but the military will definitely participate, even if Hu Qingming wants to find trouble, he doesn't have the courage.

In the late 70s, Vietnam fell to the Soviet Union, began to frantically exclude Chinese, and provoked armed conflict on the Sino-Vietnamese border. On February 17 this year, in accordance with the order of the Central Military Commission, the Chinese border guards carried out a self-defense counterattack against the Vietnamese army that had invaded Chinese territory. On March 16, all the Chinese troops who successfully completed their combat missions withdrew to China. However, after the Chinese troops withdrew to the country, Vietnam built many fortifications in the Lao Son area, and once again attacked the people on our border, and the two sides launched a round war that lasted for ten years.

Xu Wangqiu remembers that in the 80s, there were endless domestic film and television works about the Sino-Vietnamese War, and the TV series "Triumph at Midnight" and "Black Panther Commando" were particularly popular, and the most famous movies were "Wreath Under the Mountain" and "Blitzkrieg".

"Garland Under the Mountain" has a very in-depth description of various problems of the army, Xu Wangqiu has no time to go to the army to collect style, it will make people feel strange if he writes it, while "Lightning Action" is much simpler, it is a story similar to "First Blood 2", and there will be no problem in writing it. After repeated considerations, Xu Wangqiu decided to let "Blitzkrieg" come out ahead of schedule.

Today in the library, Xu Wangqiu has been thinking about the problem of "Blitzkrieg", he thinks that "Blitzkrieg" is similar to "First Blood 2", since "First Blood" can be made into a series of movies, why can't "Blitzkrieg"? It is completely possible to make "Blitzkrieg" into "Wolf Warrior" in the 80s!

However, "Lightning Action" was watched by Xu Wangqiu when he was a child, and his memory was already blurred, and he didn't remember what the protagonist's name was, so he used Yan Shuangying, a name familiar to later generations. Since the male protagonists have become Yan Shuangying, the Lightning Squad has naturally been changed to the Falcon Squad, and the name of the movie has also been changed from "Lightning Action" to "Falcon".

As for the sequel to "Falcon", Xu Wangqiu also has a general idea, Yan Shuangying can go to Africa like Leng Feng, or go to Xiangjiang to punish rape and eliminate evil, and even go to the embassy to serve as a security guard, and stage a drama to save the ambassador in a foreign country.

When eating in the small canteen of Beijing Film Studio, Xu Wangqiu had already revealed to Zhang Xiaoping that he was conceiving a new film, and now he is talking about this issue, so naturally there will be no concealment: "The name of the story is "Falcon", mainly about our army being attacked by the mysterious artillery group of the Vietnamese army, in order to find out the location of the enemy's mysterious artillery group, our falcon team infiltrated behind the enemy under the leadership of the captain Yan Shuangying, and launched a desperate battle with the enemy, and finally eliminated the enemy's mysterious artillery group. I am willing to cooperate with Xiuying Studio, but there is a problem, the filming of this film requires the use of artillery units and armored troops, and the comprehensive support of the troops. Can Xiuying Studio mobilize the military and mobilize heavy troops to assist us in filming?"

Zhang Xiaoping couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "Things are not as complicated as you think, last year our factory was preparing to shoot "Advance to the Central Plains", our factory had never made a war film before, and there were no guns and ammunition. We went to the Rongcheng Military Region and told us about it. The Rongcheng Military Region waved its hand and said that there were a lot of obsolete weapons in the Ya'an warehouse, and they would pull it by themselves. We went to the warehouse in Ya'an and brought back a batch of weapons, including rifles, machine guns and artillery. Later, the military region said that there is a scrapped fighter plane, if you want it, you can tow it back yourself. We towed the fighter back to the factory. "Falcon" is about fighting Vietnam, and the troops will definitely support it strongly. In this way, after your script is written, we will report to the Military Commission and the General Staff and request the mobilization of troops to support our filming. ”

Xu Wangqiu was dumbfounded when he heard this, this is too bold! The scrapped planes can be pulled away by the Xiuying Studio! Since the Xiuying Studio will make a report to the Military Commission, it should not be a problem to mobilize troops to assist in filming. However, he still did not rush to agree: "I have one more condition." ”

Zhang Xiaoping said speechlessly: "You kid is really verbose, if you have any conditions, hurry up and say." ”

Xu Wangqiu said with a smile: "Send Xu Wangchuan over and let him be my assistant." ”

Zhang Xiaoping knew that Xu Wangchuan was Xu Wangqiu's elder brother, and knew that he had been in the show studio for four years, starting to do lighting, and now he is on the spot, but under normal circumstances, he has to do three or four years to be promoted to assistant director, Xu Wangqiu should want Xu Wangchuan to give him, so he said: "Of course you can, I will send him to you when the time comes, and let him be your assistant director." ”

Xu Wangqiu asked Xu Wangchuan to be his assistant not to promote his eldest brother, but to carry out the long-planned plan, but he couldn't tell Zhang Xiaoping about these things, and said with an excited expression: "Director Zhang, then I will thank you for my eldest brother first." ”
