On the night when the first test water deal was officially finalized, Gu Biao took the opportunity to communicate with Tiffany about the latest situation.

In order to avoid people's eyes, he once again asked Tiffany to practice singing with karaoke alone.

Then the sister used the reason that she didn't want to be heard of her immature singing voice, and hoped to surprise her mother after practice, and transferred the tiger away from the mountain with bodyguards.

"You're so bad! Keep telling me not to tell my mother that you want to do business with her, but when you turn around, you go to the showdown again! ”

Tiffany, whose IQ is not enough to understand Gu Biao's layout, couldn't help but complain.

Gu Biao panted and explained: "This, can it be the same." You, telling her, will only make her wonder why you are talking for me, and it will be different for me to say it myself.

What's more, I'm not in a hurry to prove to you that the business I negotiated with your mother is really a good deal, good for both China and Monaco, and everyone makes money.

You think, your mother has seen the world, and she agreed to a business without knowing that I had an extra friendship with you, which could be a bad thing. Now you know, even if I don't have anything to do with you, I'm working with you for the purpose of benefiting everyone. In the future, you will listen to me, yes. I read a lot, so I won't lie to you. ”

It is really not an easy job to make vocabulary language and body language work together to deceive people, and Gu Biao almost had insufficient blood supply to his brain.

"Uh......h Too lazy to use your brain, okay, I'll believe you......"

Gu Biao lay down on the edge of the sofa weakly: "What are your plans for the follow-up trip? When will you return to France?"

Tiffany's eyes, which had already narrowed slightly, instantly widened again: "You're driving me away?"

Gu: "What do you think, it's because I just negotiated cooperation, and the above has approved me for permission, and if you receive your Monaco royal family in the future, you can ask for leave." So if you want to play until the end of the summer vacation, I can accompany you, and no one will doubt it. ”

Tiffany pouted: "It's pretty much the same, well, my mother will definitely not allow me to delay until school starts, and I will travel in China for another week at most." But there's nothing fun in the capital, I'm tired of it, can you take me to other cities?"

Gu Biao prudently helped to plan: "Where do you want to go?" And Mr. Bertolucci is currently pestered by the people of the cultural BU, and he investigates and collects styles every day, so if the director doesn't release people, is it okay for you to split into two ways?"

Director Bertolucci was originally just covering for Princess Kelly's team, but who knew that the smoke bomb itself had attracted great attention from the cultural BU, and now they can't get out.

Tiffany thought for a moment, "Then let's do it when the opportunity comes, and I'll ask the concubine to confirm the situation with Mr. Bertolucci tomorrow." If necessary, you can negotiate with them.

As for where to play next...... I want to go to the south, maybe it's more interesting. Gu, where is your home?

Gu Biao said frankly: "My home is very dilapidated, my mentor said ten years ago: beautiful West Lake, dilapidated city. I'm afraid you're going to get used to it. If you want to see the Jiangnan garden, there is no problem.

Also, it's very hot in the south, and all the hotels don't have air conditioning, so I'm afraid it will be unseemly. You'd better explain all the difficulties to your mother when you ask for instructions. ”

After Tiffany was trained by Gu Biao, she finally became a little more mature director, and the degree of unreasonable trouble was reduced a lot, and finally listened to Gu Biao's advice and decided to communicate with the princess first, instead of crying, making trouble and hanging herself.

……

The next day, Gu Biao, who was already on the main task but was now on the main task and was relaxed, went to the committee to make a point and confirmed that there was nothing urgent to deal with.

I said hello to my colleagues, called my former classmate Lu Jianjun to confirm the itinerary, and then drove out.

He kicked the accelerator to kill the Cultural Liaison Bureau, Lu Jianjun and the female translator who knew Italian last time heard the sound of the car and went downstairs to pick him up, and then the group went up to the reception room.

Lu Jianjun has been here all the time in the past few days, and it seems that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also attaches great importance to this matter, and is at least willing to send a section chief in the Protocol Department to follow the cultural BU side to cooperate with the itinerary throughout the whole process.

While going up the stairs, Lu Jianjun talked to Gu Biao about illiteracy: "Mr. Bertolucci has visited the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and everything in the past few days. The director got the instructions from above and showed Mr. Bertolucci a lot of modern first-hand historical materials, as well as some recent scripts of China Television.

In the end, I decided to ask him to make "The Last Emperor", and took Pu YI's "The First Half of My Life" as the source of the story. I heard that documentaries about tragic figures in modern history are easier to win awards, and there is a sense of heaviness. I've heard that Europeans are not all good at this, and there must be tragedy to be rewarded.

The director and other leaders are not here today, and today it is the people of China Film Co-production Company who are lobbying Mr. Bertolucci to discuss some details. For now, Mr. Bertolucci is still very interested, and you can help with it later. ”

When Gu Biao heard this, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

Unexpectedly, the relevant departments finally took out the draft script that had only been written for a few months and sold it - historically, the TV script of "The Last Emperor" was written for three years, from 81 to 84, and then 85 before filming started. After the filming, he asked Bertolucci to make a documentary-oriented art film.

Unexpectedly, there is no shadow of the script now, and the relevant departments themselves have not tried it, just because Bertolucci came to China in advance, he hurriedly took it out for the show.

The two chatted and soon arrived at the reception room.

Gu Biao saw at a glance that Bertolucci was wearing an Italian assistant, and on the other side were sitting two Chinese people in suits, combing their big backs, who should be executives of the co-production company.

"Oh, Gu, it's nice to meet you, how I wash the net and talk to someone like you. The first time Bertolucci saw Gu Biao, he bluntly gave Gu Biao a problem.

If you talk like this, the leader will have an opinion on me!

Gu Biao complained in his head.

Are Italians so loose and disrespectful of the executive?

He could only smile awkwardly and politely at the two men in the suit with big backs.

Fortunately, the other party recognized Gu Biao, and he also knew that everyone was not in the same system, so he didn't mind.

"Comrade Xiao Gu, right, I've been looking up for a long time. Let me introduce myself, the contemptible Qiao Yinghua, the deputy general manager of China Film Co-production, this is Xiaohu of our business department.

I heard that Comrade Xiao Gu has a lot of friends who speak well in Hong Kong and Hollywood, and I hope you will introduce more foreign resources to our co-production company in the future-this time, such a big wrist of Mr. Bertolucci was also invited by Comrade Xiao Gu to China?"

When Gu Biao thought about it, he knew that his face was remembered. Other domestic units may not care about him, but foreign-related film institutions must have deliberately understood what Chinese background things have exploded in foreign countries.

Gu Biao's cooperation with Sir Shao and Cameron is difficult not to be noticed.

Alas, it's not good to be famous, others will respect you as soon as they meet, and the opportunity to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger is gone.

Gu Biao shook hands with an earnest face: "Mr. Qiao, you are polite, I am ashamed to say it, I was not familiar with Mr. Bertolucci before, this time a friend of mine came to China for tourism, and I didn't want to attract attention, so I asked Mr. Bertolucci to cover up." I didn't expect to be cut off by you. ”

He exchanged pleasantries while calculating the other party's administrative rank in his mind.

The co-production company should be a department-level unit, and at most half a level higher, then this Qiao Yinghua should also be a department official, and there is not much difference between him and Gu Biao's level.

The so-called "co-production company" is just a common name, the official scientific name is "China Film Co-production Company", abbreviated as CFCC, which is a state-owned enterprise established in 1979 according to the documents of the National U Academy, and now has the exclusive business authority to cooperate with overseas film shooting in China.

When Gu Biao was working on "Hujiang Beach" with the Shaw Brothers two years ago, it was just a TV series, not a movie. And I didn't plan to introduce it for broadcast as soon as it was filmed, so it was not a mistake to bypass the CFCC.

When "Shaolin Temple" last year, when cooperating with the Hong Kong side of Great Wall Pictures, all the procedures of the domestic side went through the formal process of CFCC. It's just that in that movie, Gu Biao only helped contact a protagonist and martial arts instructor, and did not participate in shares and distribute benefits, so these are none of his business.

In general, Gu Biao is very dislike dealing with the CFCC and even taking a stake in co-productions.

This policy is too risky and hateful. At the same time, today's movie ticket prices in China are also destined to have nothing to make at the domestic box office, which is all rib business. Even if there is a good opportunity, it is much better to choose to invite fame and implant soft and wide than the idea of a joint venture.

Unless Gu Biao directly plays the role of the foreign side, that is an exception.

After a circle of people greeting each other for a while, Gu Biao had a general understanding of Bertolucci's current position and how far the negotiations between the two sides had progressed.

To Gu Wei's surprise, Bertolucci did not have any resistance to taking on the job itself, and was already willing to do it.

Today's disagreement is reflected in the guarantee of independent creative rights - Bertolucci is very surprised that the Chinese side is willing to give the highest level of preferential treatment in terms of hardware cooperation, but in terms of the right to final review of the script, it is stubbornly clinging to it and refusing to let go.

During the tripartite mediation, Gu Biao heard Qiao Yinghua emphasize again:

"Mr. Bertolucci, please respect our laws. In accordance with the current policies and relevant documents of our country. Whether the script of all Sino-foreign co-productions is harmonious or not must be sent by the CFCC to the General Administration for review before issuing a shooting permit, allowing the formal signing of a co-production contract with the foreign party, and issuing a letter of appointment to the director.

Before the review, we can only sign a 'cooperation agreement of intent to cooperate', not a formal co-production contract. However, this is just a legal form, and I believe that a famous director like Mr. Bertolucci will definitely be able to pull a bunch of production companies to go through the procedures for you. ”

Bertolucci: "Then why are you pulling me to talk now? You should go and approve the script first, and then send it to me for review, and I am willing to make this script, and I will accept it." As a great artist, we will not succumb to scripts that distort facts! This is my professional ethics!"

Qiao Yinghua was helpless: "Isn't it that the script is far from finished, anyway, you believe in us, we will not use a script that distorts history to pit your industry reputation." ”
