Chapter 0133 Investing in Chinese New Year Dramas Intervenes in the entertainment industry

"1997 has passed, I miss it very much, this sentence is very interesting" Wan Xinglong, Ji Ziyu and Cui Ning talked eloquently in front of several celebrities in the literary circle.

"Maybe after 20 years, I will be more touched to watch this film again" The director of this movie is a middle-aged director born in Longdu, who has just entered the threshold of 40 years old, with the humor of Longdu people and the vicissitudes of intellectual youth.

"Party A and Party B" created at least two "firsts" in the history of Dragon Kingdom films: the first film shot for a specific schedule since 1949, and the first one took the form of "risk sharing" in which the director did not receive remuneration but took a commission from the film's profits. Our investors like this form," Wan Xinglong was very touched.

"Director Feng is the father of Chinese New Year films," Ji Ziyu said, "I have watched this movie twice, and it really gives full play to our sense of humor in Longdu."

"A few concessions, I am also going to shoot another Chinese New Year drama this year" Director Feng said, "It's also humorous, but it's about love"

"Then we are looking forward to it, the key is that I want to invest, we can do it together" Wan Xinglong said "Some time ago, we also came into contact with an incident, a few girls watched horror movies and were scared and almost had an accident, so we also want to invest in more light-hearted and humorous themes, which is also good for the society"

"If you want to invest, I'll also participate" Ji Ziyu said, "Although my homepage is not film and television entertainment, but I watched "Party A and Party B", I feel that this business can't be lost"

"Then let's say it, everyone, give a lot of support" Feng pointed to the two or three ordinary people present, not salty and indifferent jokes, a bit of an interesting plot. I'm very "stingy", small themes, small productions. Elegance and vulgarity, this is my style"

"I didn't think about winning any international awards?" asked the CEO of another cultural institution, who had some cooperation with well-known directors in China.

"Let's just be a little person, live and have fun, whether we win an award or not, it's a trivial matter, and a hero is a hero if there is a box office" Director Feng spoke Longdu Mandarin, and he was very depressed "Maybe one day I will really swell, what international blockbuster I want to make, I will probably be scolded to death by the audience"

"Director Feng is*" Wan Xinglong smiled, "I have made a friend of yours."

"Drink together another day, make skewers together, and eat dumplings together" Director Feng continued to give his hand to the "ranking, I won't talk about the big truth, this time I came to this meeting, and regarded film and television dramas as an industry, especially when I saw the big leader, I was honestly afraid, I was just a little director, so everything pointed to all kinds of support, more support".

While chatting, Minister Zhao Tianlang, Jiang Lao, and two secretaries walked into the discussion room.

After motioning for everyone to sit down, Minister Zhao spoke:

"Culture is a major event, related to ideology, so this conference will specially invite teachers and experts in the cultural industry, including some representatives of investment companies, the purpose is to provide convenience for everyone, to produce more and better works."

"What the masses like to see is good works, and "Water Margin", one of the four famous novels, was also released at the beginning of the year, and the response was very good, proving that our Dragon Kingdom culture, including history, has works worth shooting"

"But I'm here this time because I have a question to communicate with you, about the introduction of foreign blockbusters, I don't know what your attitude is?"

"We were still discussing this issue just now" Wan Xinglong was the first to answer, "Last year's Oriental horror film "Midnight Bell" must be a good movie, but the subject matter is too terrifying, and our country has no classification system, so we still have to focus on it in the future."

"The key is to face the WTO accession, and the introduction of films is also the general trend, otherwise it is possible to settle the international community," Ji Ziyu said, "so this is not only a matter of cultural exchange, but also involves international relations."

"Isn't there a well-known director here? Director Feng Da, why don't you speak," Minister Zhao nodded half-jokingly.

"Minister, you're polite, I'm just a little director, not well-known, and I'm a director, I only know how to shoot films, and I don't understand anything else."

"Just tell the truth, don't have any scruples, talk here, there is no problem, and you don't have to worry about media reports" Minister Zhao laughed "No one dares to report without my permission"

Director Feng scratched his head: "I think it's better to use the market to solve the problem, for example, there are good films abroad, or they should be introduced, only when there are more good movies, only audiences are willing to enter the cinema, in order to prosper the entire market, in fact, I personally think that Meiguo's films do have something worth learning from"

Minister Zhao nodded and looked at Cui Ning:

"Xiao Cui, you are also in the cultural industry, and I also gave you the title of a consultant, you have to say a few words."

Cui Ning nodded to Minister Zhao to show respect, thought about it, and said:

"I am a post-70s generation, when we were young, many people just had a TV at home, and then the first introduced cartoons and TV series, many of them were from the East, such as "Smart Ikyu", "Blood Suspicion", "Ashin", "Volleyball Girl", "Astro Boy", "Dinosaur Super Kesai", etc., I believe many people present still remember it vividly.

We have to face the fact that these TV dramas and cartoons are really good-looking, even today, they are still classics, and the quality of Toyokoku's electrical appliances is also good, and they were advertised on TV relatively early, which has created a general perception that Toyokoku's things are really good.

The formation of this cognition is also unconscious, from the perspective of the market, it is understandable, it is normal, good is good, it is worth learning from us, and this problem cannot be avoided.

In the corporate world, including the management of Toyokoku, there are things worth learning from, including the company I used to work for, Hailan Group, and a lot of management experience is also learned from Toyokoku.

Before Mr. Ni of the Rainbow Group launched the TV price war, most of the TV market in our country was occupied by the Oriental State, including automobiles, washing machines, etc., which were also products of the Oriental State.

I don't think that using products from other countries is to worship foreign countries, and even foreign countries are not necessarily bad, knowing our own shortcomings, can just arouse our competitiveness, in order to have the motivation to move forward.

However, from the perspective of culture, education, and the development of national enterprises, we must have our own good things in order to talk about competition and the freedom of the market. Otherwise, cultural aggression is a terrible thing, so terrible that we will lose the pride and honor of our country.

I am not opposed to the introduction, or even the introduction of large quantities, but I prefer that our country has better enterprises, better films, better directors and better products, and then hand everything over to the audience and users, otherwise, we can only look up and be passively eliminated by the market."

Jiang Lao nodded straightly, "Although the four words of cultural aggression are not very good, they do tell the actual situation, after the end of the Cold War, between countries, it is no longer a simple weapon war, but more economic, cultural and commercial wars, but at present, we are not doing very well."

"There are many reasons for the bad ones," Minister Zhao also deeply agreed, "As Xiao Cui said, in the 80s, I also thought that Toyokoku products and TV dramas were good, and this was the subtle influence, affecting a whole generation, or even two generations."

"Now, our director is no worse than the director of the Oriental Kingdom, this leader wants to give us time" Director Feng said, "Only the Dragon Kingdom people really understand the Dragon Country people, this will become more and more obvious in the film and culture"

"That's the truth" Minister Zhao nodded, "However, we have approved a film of Meiguo to be released in China this year, it is estimated that it will be next month, this is a very good-looking film, very touching, I suggest that you have time to take a look, it is "Titanic" that has been changed according to real events in history"

"Meiguo people are good at big productions, and their technology is also mature," said director Feng Xiaoguang, "but both big and small productions will produce good works, and the key is to create space for us."

"Please rest assured, we not only want to give everyone creative space, but also actively support everyone from the policy" Minister Zhao said, "Director Feng, I am also looking forward to your new New Year film"

Cui Ning is a person who likes to study and research, and when he returned to the office, he specially watched some news about the "Titanic" movie, as well as the real Titanic incident in history.

"Titanic" is a romance film produced by Meiguo Twentieth Century Fox Film Company and Paramount Pictures, directed by James Cameron, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet.

The film is based on the events of the Titanic cruise ship that ran into an iceberg and sank when it set sail for its maiden voyage in 1912, and tells the touching story of two poor painters in different classes, Jack and Ruth, a noblewoman, who abandon their worldly prejudices and fall in love, and finally Jack gives up the chance of life to Ruth. The film was released in Meiguo on December 19, 1997 and received high industry praise.

Of course, Cui Ning is not only concerned about these, but a familiar name, Fox Film Company, which has exactly the same name as the Fox Fortune List.

After repeated in-depth research, Cui Ning found that whether it was a film company or a wealth list, there was the shadow of the Rothschild family behind it.

This only proves that the Rothschild family's business is really too big, and the whole world is their business territory.

Of course, from the perspective of cultural aggression, Cui Ning also vaguely felt that the Rothschild family was exporting certain seemingly correct values, including world-renowned directors and famous film and television companies, which were actually just tools of their family.

And when Cui Ning reported some of the conclusions of his research to Mr. Jiang and Mr. Zhuge , the two of them were rarely serious.
