In the evening, the filmmakers of the Xiangjiang Left faction held a banquet to entertain the crew of "Hoe Rape". This is the first mainland film crew to go to Xiangjiang to promote the campaign since the end of the campaign, and the filmmakers in Xiangjiang are particularly welcoming and enthusiastic about their arrival. The whole dinner was very lively, dozens of new and old filmmakers gathered together, laughing and laughing.

Bao Qijing is the head of the Great Wall, so as the eldest sister, she introduced many seniors to Xu Wangqiu. Although the left/school movies in Xiangjiang are in serious decline, many old people are there, and the background is still there. Xu Wangqiu is very polite to these seniors, they are really a group of people who struggle for their ideals and beliefs.

After walking around, Bao Qijing took Xu Wangqiu to the table where the Great Wall actors were. These actors are young actors recruited by Great Wall last year, only in their twenties, they are all very young, and their image and temperament are very good.

"Wangqiu, let me introduce you, this is Liu Xuehua, this is Xia Bingxin, this is Li Yanyan......"

Xu Wangqiu had only heard of Liu Xuehua, and the others had no impression at all. Great Wall went to great lengths to select these actors, wanting to make them new princesses like Xia Meng, but obviously none of these actors came out. Even Liu Xuehua, the only famous one, is not popular by the movies of the Great Wall, but by Qiong Yao's drama. Before today, he always thought that Liu Xuehua was from Taiwan, but he didn't expect that he was from Xiangjiang, and he was once an actor on the Great Wall.

Liu Xuehua and Bao Qijing have collaborated on two movies, and they have a good relationship, so she said curiously: "Sister Qijing, what does he do?"

Bao Qijing smiled: "It scares you when you say it." You should know that today's dinner is to entertain the crew of "Hoe Rape", but do you know who the director of "Hoe Rape" is?"

Everyone present shook their heads: "I don't know." ”

Bao Qijing smiled even brighter: "It's none other than Wangqiu." ”

Liu Xuehua naturally didn't believe it: "Sister Qijing, don't make fun of us, how can there be such a young director, he looks younger than me?"

Others also said: "Yes, how can there be such a young director!", "Sister Qijing, what does he do?", "It should be the starring role of "Hoe Rape", right?"

Seeing everyone's reaction, Bao Qijing remembered that Xu Wangqiu said on the plane that he was a director, and he also had this reaction, so she said happily: "I didn't believe that he was a director just now, and I also taught him to be honest, but he is really a director." ”

When everyone saw Bao Qijing say this, they all believed that Xu Wangqiu was really a director. They looked at Xu Wangqiu curiously, and they all felt a little incredible when they saw such a young director for the first time.

At the same time, Zhao Dan and Hu Jianzheng were chatting with several CEOs of Changfeng about the topic of movies.

During the movement, Changfengxin made very few films, and many of them were model plays. Now that the campaign is over, they are all confused and don't know what to shoot. They often go to China to ask Xia Yan, Liao Chengzhi and other seniors for advice, and ask what they should shoot. Zhao Shan is an old-timer in the film industry and has also been a director, so they naturally have to ask for advice: "Zhao Dan's senior, we are very confused about what to shoot now, what kind of film can we make?"

Zhao Shan smiled slightly: "I don't know about the situation in Xiangjiang, so I can't give you advice." But I think you can talk to Wangqiu, his horizons are really very broad, and he is very thoughtful. ”

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this, they didn't expect Zhao Dan to have such a high opinion of Xu Wangqiu.

Fu Qi couldn't help asking: "Who is this Xu Wangqiu, why did he become a director at such a young age?"

Someone lowered his voice and said, "It can't be the child of a leader, right?"

Zhao Shan chuckled: "No, it's just a child from an ordinary family." Wangqiu is a true genius, and his understanding of movies and the future development of the film industry is beyond ordinary people. He once wrote an article called "On the Sinicization of Film Language", which caused a lot of controversy in China, and that article was very far-sighted and explained many issues very thoroughly. ”

The leftist filmmakers in Hong Kong have always been very concerned about the mainland, and they are aware of the controversy that has occurred in the mainland film industry over the past year or so, and they have also read articles on both sides. They have all read "On the Sinicization of Film Language", and they especially agree with the views in it. Because the prosperity of Xiangjiang films was established by the filmmakers of the magic capital, and the filmmakers of the magic capital started by learning from Hollywood.

It's just that they always thought that "On the Sinicization of Film Language" was written by an expert who has in-depth research on the overseas film market and Hollywood films, but they didn't expect the author to be an eighteen or nineteen-year-old young man.

Fu Qi said with relief: "With such an outstanding young man emerging, there is great hope for the motherland's film industry!"

Liao Yiyuan sighed: "It's incredible that he is so young and has such an in-depth study of movies."

Xia Meng smiled and said, "I don't think it's strange, there are so many Chinese, it's normal to have a few geniuses." ”

Hu Jian added with a smile: "This kid is very capable of tossing, and he gave the Magic Film Studio an idea to let them build a movie theme park, and the ministry convened several film studio directors to hold a meeting, but this kid gave the people in the film studio an idea to divide the accounts according to the copy; ”

After listening to it, everyone had to hope that Qiu Bufan felt that this young man was open-minded and could listen to his advice.

Xu Dunle, general manager of Southern Pictures, stood up and beckoned to Xu Wangqiu: "Wangqiu, come here, we want to talk to you, we have some questions to ask you." ”

Xu Wangqiu is bragging with his eyebrows fluttering, telling the story of raising giant pandas. When the actors heard that he was from Xichuan, they asked him if he had ever seen a panda. Xu Wangqiu began to brag nonsense, saying that many people in Xichuan raised pandas at home, and he raised a panda named Xiaobai when he was a child, and his feelings were very good, but he was not allowed to raise them later, so he was released into the mountains and forests. Xu Wangqiu was blowing hard, and when he heard the boss of Southern Pictures calling him, he said to everyone and talked about it later. He walked over and asked with a smile, "Is there anything wrong with Mr. Xu?"

Xia Meng beckoned the waiter to move a chair over, asked Xu Wangqiu to sit down, and said with a pleasant face: "Wangqiu, do you know why you were invited to come when "Hoe Rape" was released this time, and why there was large-scale publicity?"

Xu Wangqiu nodded and said, "I heard Ding Jianming say that it is to reopen the Xiangjiang Market!"

Fu Qi smiled and said, "Yes, we have lost the market in the past ten years. After the campaign, we made several films, but the audience didn't buy it, and the market response was very poor. We couldn't find where the direction was, we didn't know what to shoot. After watching "The Rape", we felt that this might be a way out. This time, the southern company invested heavily in publicity, just to see if it could open the Xiangjiang market. If we can open up the market, then we can make gunfight films, we can shoot special science hoe rape, we can shoot to eradicate traitors, and we can even shoot assassination of Dongying officers. ”

Xu Wangqiu was stunned when he heard this, although he didn't know much about the history of the development of the Xiangjiang left/faction, but at least he still knew "Shaolin Temple". "Shaolin Temple" has been a huge success around the world, not only achieving Jet Li, but also opening up a years-long kung fu movie boom, producing many excellent kung fu movies.

You don't have a good "Shaolin Temple" and kung fu movies, but you want to do gunfight movies, isn't this a loss of watermelon and sesame seeds?

Xu Wangqiu said: "Xiangjiang kung fu films are very popular, last year's box office champion was Cheng Long's "Drunken Fist", which also sold very well overseas, and Bruce Lee's kung fu films were sold all over the world in the past, why don't you make kung fu movies? You can go to the mainland to shoot live, and you can even choose professional athletes from the mainland wushu team to shoot. The real kung fu, coupled with the famous mountains and rivers in the country, will definitely be very popular!"

Xu Wangqiu saw that everyone's eyes were shining, staring at him tightly, and continued: "Dongying has a Shaolin Temple Boxing Alliance, the founder of this alliance in the 30s to the Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts, practice Shaolin Temple boxing, in 1946 he returned to Dongying, the Chinese Shaolin Boxing Dongying and developed into Japanese Shaolin Boxing, the formation of the Dongying Shaolin Temple Boxing Alliance, from scratch to 1.5 million people, daily practice of 150,000 people. If you can make a martial arts film of Shaolin Temple, you will definitely be welcomed by the Shaolin Temple Boxing Alliance, and you can return to the capital just by selling Dongying's copyright. Coupled with China, Xiangjiang, and Southeast Asia, the box office is definitely very good. This is also a kind of propaganda for Chinese culture!"

Everyone present thought that this idea was excellent, and the idea of using martial arts athletes to make kung fu movies was really a stroke of genius.

Liao Yiyuan, the boss of Xinlian, couldn't help but say, "How do you know this?"

Xu Wangqiu grinned: "I read in the newspaper that the founder of the Shaolin Temple Boxing Alliance visited China two years ago and wanted to go to Shaolin Temple to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors." A few days ago, I had a conversation with Tokuma Yasukuai from Toei, and he said that kung fu movies are very popular in Toei, and Cheng Long's "Drunken Fist" sold 2 billion yen, and he suggested that we also do kung fu movies. ”

Everyone present was amazed, Tokuma Yasukuai is the boss of Daying Company, and even Tokuma Yasukuai suggested making kung fu films, which is enough to prove that kung fu films are popular in Dongying, plus the mainland market, the Xiangjiang market, and other Chinese markets, as long as "Shaolin Temple" is filmed well, it will definitely be a great success.

Fu Qi also thinks that it is a good idea to make kung fu movies in the mainland, but he thinks that it is too repetitive for everyone to make kung fu movies: "You can't make kung fu movies all of them, everyone is swarming, and it is easy to have problems." ”

Xu Wangqiu felt that it made sense, after "Shaolin Temple" became popular, a bunch of Shaolin Temple-themed movies flocked to it, and within a few years, this theme was overshot, and suggested: "Haven't you always thought that you are known for reflecting reality? For example, the police circles have colluded with the gangsters to operate, and even four major detectives have appeared, which can be made into a movie; corrupt elements have caused many unjust, false and wrongly decided cases, and they can also be made into movies! I believe that the people of Xiangjiang will be interested in this kind of theme. ”

Fu Qi shook his head lightly: "This is more difficult, according to the regulations of the Electric Inspection Department, the notorious movie that makes Xiangjiang's judicial injustice cannot pass the trial." The British government in Hong Kong has always regarded us as a thorn in its side, and its scrutiny of us has been particularly strict. ”

Xu Wangqiu immediately smiled when he heard this: "This problem is easy to solve, such as such a movie, a conscientious old policeman investigates the murder case and finds that the deceased was killed after inadvertently taking photos of high-ranking officials and corruption." The old policeman wanted to expose everything, but he was framed as a wanted criminal, and the police were crazy about chasing him. The old policeman went through hardships and dangers to eliminate the real culprit, but he was still wanted and could only abscond overseas. At the end of the movie, we added a subtitle, in 1974, Hong Kong established the Independent Commission Against Corruption to crack down on judicial corruption, and the old policeman returned to the police force, will he be able to pass the trial?"

Xia Meng and Changfengxin's eyes lit up after hearing this, hey, it seems that it can really be!
