"Wow, thank you!"

In the fashionable and luxurious VIP room in the terminal, the pick-up interview of "Entertainment Scene" has just been completed, the middle-aged male photographer turned off the camera, and a staff member handed it to Wang Yang with a gift, and Shen Xing, who got up from the sofa together, said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, this is a gift from our column group, welcome to China!"

"Thank you, I love this gift. Wang Yang thanked him and accepted the gift with a smile, this is a cute monkey rag doll, holding a stick with two red ends and yellow in the middle, and a yellow hoop on his head, he recognized this as the Monkey King in "Journey to the West".

Sure enough, at this time, Shen Xing next to him explained and smiled: "You were born on February 5, 80, and the zodiac is a monkey according to the traditional Lichun calculation; Although Wang Yang said that she liked it very much, she still said with a smile: "I hope you can like it." ”

"Well, thank you! I know Sun Wukong. Wang Yang fiddled with the cloth doll's wishful diamond stick, which will not be retracted at will, he boasted and laughed: "I have watched "Journey to the West", I first read comic books when I was a child, and then read books. Among the four famous Chinese novels, I have read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin", but "Dream of Red Mansions" does not, I don't like Jia ...... Jia Baobao, NO Jia Baobao...... Jia Baoyu! Like a girl. ”

Listening to his deliberately accented Beijing dialect, Shen Xing looked a little surprised, and she was indeed surprised in her heart, as a graduate of the Chinese Department, it is not surprising that she has read through the four famous works; Magical Yang is really a "China expert". Other photographers and others also laughed, while assistant Susan McCarthy knew Chinese but did not understand famous books, and two burly and tall Israeli bodyguards smiled.

"Oh. Wang Yang realized that he had made a mistake, and this sentence sounded disdainful of women, but it was not. He explained: "It doesn't mean anything else, it's just a joke." I think that in that era, men and women were affected by the environment, and there were differences in personality and ability, and the social roles they could play, and a man should have his responsibilities......"

He shrugged his shoulders and smiled, rolled his eyes, and said, "I'm talking nonsense, I haven't read "Dream of Red Mansions", it's all hearsay. Maybe the struggle between people and society at that time was part of it? I don't know, I just don't like the impression of Jia Baoyu. He smiled solemnly and said: "Actually, when I used to read the books of "Journey to the West", I read them in the vernacular version, and I didn't understand them completely; ”

Magical Yang is really very talkative!Shen Xing smiled and nodded, but no matter what he said, she also didn't appreciate Jia Baoyu, she liked strong men. Listening to him, Shen Xing praised, "That's already amazing." ”

"Haha, it's better to be this, I'm a senior brother!" Wang Yang shook the puppet in his hand with a smile, pointed to the vajra hoop again, and frowned: "But I don't like it, it's terrible!"

Seeing that he was going to hand over the Monkey King puppet to the assistant, Shen Xing begged and smiled: "Mr. Wang, can you take a photo?" She wants to take a group photo not only to satisfy the emotions of the fans in her heart, but also to her popularity in the future, and to take a photo with the magical director, this is a very rare and precious opportunity.

"OK, yes!" Wang Yang didn't care, so he continued to stand solemnly with the cloth doll, smiling in the direction of the photographer in charge of taking pictures, and Shen Xing stood next to him with a happy face. After snapping a few photos, Wang Yang handed the puppet to Susan McCarthy, shook hands with Shen Xing, and said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to be on this show, Miss Shen, goodbye." Shen Xing waved his hand and smiled: "Goodbye, I wish you a happy trip!"

"Good-Luck!" also said goodbye to the photographer, and Wang Yang and his party walked outside the VIP room.

After looking at them far away, Shen Xingcai retracted his gaze and looked at a few colleagues, and the photographer Lao Chen said: "Hey, then Wang Yang doesn't have any shelf, is he even more amiable than Zhang Yimou's others." Lao Li, who packed up the microphone, said: "Don't say it, after so many shows, just 3 people followed, and a little star is better than him!" Shen Xing sighed in a low voice: "Wow, it's so handsome!"

Since there was no arrangement for fans to pick up the plane and no need to wear sunglasses, Wang Yang and the others left the terminal smoothly and got into the car. After sleeping well on the plane, Wang Yang didn't feel very tired, so he didn't go back directly to the Wangfu Hotel where he stayed, but walked around Wangfujing Street to see if he could buy what he needed for the marriage proposal plan he had come up with.

"That handsome guy seems to be Wang Yang?", "It's Wang Yang!!Didn't he come to Beijing recently? There are also foreigners following!", "Wang Yang, Wang Yang!" ...... "Wang Yang arrived in China and started his trip to China. The news became a hot news item on Sina's homepage, and it was also a big headline in the entertainment section, reporting that Wang Yang and his party had arrived in Beijing in the morning, but the media were not allowed to pick them up. The same news appeared on other Chinese portals, entertainment websites, and various forums, all of which were rushing to tell each other as if aliens had arrived.

NetEase: "Magical Yang led a team to China to promote the new work!", Sohu: "Wang Yang launched Chinese propaganda, accompanied by Natalie and Rachel. "Yahoo China, Tianya, Xici Hutong...... "Welcome to "Entertainment Live", I'm Soni!" On the TV screen waiting for countless fans, the host Chang Soni smiled happily: "Today, a person came to Beijing and came to China. Each of his films is loved by audiences around the world, and he is the youngest best director in the history of the Oscars.

After a day of shopping in Wangjing Mansion, Wang Yang found that when buying something extremely important, men would become as picky as women. Luckily, however, he was able to buy the necessary items to propose.

He once again felt the unstoppable enthusiasm of Chinese movie fans, although not as exaggerated as Hong Kong, but it was also almost breathless, because it was too crowded! From a few people to a quick circle, even those few signatures in Chinese and English were not completed, and if the fans with cameras would of course ask for a group photo. Wang Yang wanted to fulfill all of their requests, but it seemed that there was no end in sight.

After a few times, he found that the "three foreigners" were the real reason for attracting attention, so he asked the two bodyguards to follow him farther away, and he put on sunglasses himself, so that no one would recognize him immediately, after all, he was not wearing a T-shirt of "I am Wang Yang".

After taking a plane for more than ten hours and then shopping for a day, Wang Yang naturally felt quite tired, but his assistant Susan McCarthy received a lot of banquet invitations from the head of public relations of Flame Films in Beijing, including directors, stars, celebrities, and agents, ...... "Can we have a meal together?", "I'm your fan, I hope to meet you!", "My daughter is your fan, let's take this opportunity to get to know you?...... Wang Yang declined, he preferred private dinners to dinners, and family dinners to private dinners. Family, one or a few good friends get together, Jessica cooks, he can cook, and the scene is happy...... The problem was that he didn't know them, and he wasn't interested in meeting them now.

However, he accepted the invitation to meet with Han Sanping, chairman and general manager of China Film Group, and Han Sanping had already come to the hotel before calling in person.

The two met in the antique living room, and after a polite greeting, Wang Yang talked to this round-faced middle-aged man wearing glasses and a black suit. Han Sanping is also a director himself, but instead of discussing how to shoot the film, they talked about the cooperation between Flame and China Film, the commercial affairs of "MIT-21-TEAM" this time, and then talked about the Chinese film market.

"Mr. Wang. Han Sanping looked at the young man in the mahogany chair on the other side of the coffee table, who was 27 years younger than him, almost all of them were younger than his son, and he asked, "What do you think should be done in China's market to make it bigger?"

Although he thinks that no one understands the Chinese market better than him, especially a Yankee who has only been to China twice, and he is young. But the other party is the youngest billionaire, and the flame movie is getting more and more powerful year by year, and he remembers that the information says which American magazine commented on this young man: "Silicon Valley has lost a trailblazer, Wall Street has lost a tycoon, and Hollywood has one more magician." ”

He thinks it's a bit exaggerated, what does the little doll know? But when it comes to the film business, he doesn't have any disdain capital, and he thinks that Hollywood's production experience is very good, so his words are not completely insincere.

"Hmm......" Wang Yang didn't care so much, thinking about this problem, he raised his teacup and took a sip of Pu'er tea, and said: "First of all, it takes time, and the growth and expansion of the market requires the cooperation of the two aspects...... Uh, hardware and software. Hardware is the number of theater screens, and when it is popularized to a certain extent, the market has the possibility of a box office blowout. But why open a theater? For investors, it's definitely because it's profitable, then you need software, movies, and a potential audience. ”

Han Sanping nodded, this is the clearest and most basic idea, and Wang Yang said with a smile: "In fact, there are not a few theaters in China, "Titanic" and "Hero" have proved that there is a large consumer group, but it is unstable, watching one is counted as one, and the audience does not have the habit of going to the theater often." This has to do with whether the theater has attractive new movies, ticket prices and spending power. ”

"The most important thing is to form a concept of consumption, wait for the rise of consumption power, and attract more people to watch movies in the cinema. This requires a lot of effort in publicity, not only attention, but also the concept that 'the theater has better visual and audio enjoyment, and watching the big screen is considered to have watched this movie.' This is also true. ”

He shrugged his shoulders slightly, took a sip of tea, and continued: "I have every reason to believe that in a few years, when today's young people have the financial ability and spending power, the Chinese box office will show explosive growth." Because they understand this, they pursue better enjoyment and the pursuit of watching movies for the first time. Then the box office grows, and money will pour into the market, whether it is the number of theaters, the number of screens, or the production of movies. But it's not urgent, it takes time. ”

"The most crucial thing in it is the movie. Good movies + excellent publicity and marketing, more sensations to stimulate the market, so that more people can complete their first walk into the cinema faster, and there will be a second time if there is a first time...... Then slowly form this consumption habit. ”

After saying this, Wang Yang smiled: "Maybe "Capture of Las Vegas" can be pushed further? Haha, OK, I'm honored!"

"Mr. Wang, what you said is very reasonable, I just want to ask how to stimulate this market. Han Sanping looked modest, not disagreeing in his heart, but he felt that this young man shrunk his head and shrugged his shoulders without a proper shape and no atmosphere. He asked: "I want to learn from Hollywood's experience, big investment, big production, big stars, and use high investment to make blockbusters, big productions, big lineups, and then do big publicity! ”

Wang Yang was silent for a moment, drank tea with a rational mind, and after a while, he looked at Han Sanping and said with a smile: "The blockbuster is indeed very attractive, and it will stimulate the market." But there is a premise, you have to ensure the quality of the film, and the audience who is stimulated is satisfied, this is a must, and every one of them. Because for an immature market, the audience's dissatisfaction will not only be for that movie, but for the entire market, the entire Chinese domestic film market. ”

"When that blockbuster stimulates a sensation and occupies all the eyeballs, the audience's concept will be transformed, and that blockbuster is 'Chinese domestic film', infinitely expanded, and if that movie is bad, he will say that Chinese movies are really bad. You know, it's a hurt, and every time you add a hurt, that distrust grows, and it ends up making the market bigger, just ......"

Wang Yang spread his hands as he spoke, and said with a smile: "Mr. Han, to be honest with you, it's just a wedding dress for Hollywood." If that happens, China's domestic films will have a very small market share, and of course, 20 imported films a year is a good protection plan. "And China Film accounts for a large proportion of the share.

"Hmm. Han Sanping nodded silently, this young man has some truth in what he said, but he doesn't think he will miss out, commercial films, it's not like that! There are rich and celebrities, and then with the means and publicity of their Chinese films, the audience still doesn't want to watch it, so what's the difficulty in getting the box office up? He doesn't believe that state-owned enterprises can't do well, and if he doesn't believe in public ownership, it won't work at all.

In fact, the most important thing is that sentence, do a good job. ”

Wang Yang took a sip of tea and could see that Han Sanping was quite unimpressed, but since he had said so much, he continued: "Of course, some people will say, 'Hollywood movies are really bad', but there are too many movies released in Hollywood every year, some are bad and some are good, it is a mature brand, and it is also oriented to a mature market, so the audience will continue to watch Hollywood on the one hand, and on the other hand, they will continue to watch." ”

"And the United States is not only Hollywood, it only represents the mainstream market, European films, Sundance independent film festivals, will fill the gap in Hollywood, and at the same time will send fresh blood, so that the creative team will continue to change blood, so that the mainstream market will not be rotten and withered. So you can see Memory Fragments, My Grand Greek Wedding, ...... And then there's Christopher Nolan, who is becoming one of the top and most influential directors in the mainstream market. ”

Wang Yang said euphemistically: "Independent films represent the display of talent, and only more young filmmakers will be given the opportunity to join in, get the opportunity to tell stories to their heart's content, and other aspects...... The overall formation of a mature market, I think this is the Hollywood experience that should be used for reference. ”

He shrugged his shoulders, in fact, these industry experiences are not difficult to summarize, but this country ...... There is not even a grading mechanism, and the audit control is so deformed and exaggerated, let alone anything else. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Han, you know the intricacies of China better than me, and I don't know much about it, so that's all." ”

"Hehe!" Han Sanping smiled happily and narrowed his eyes, this doll looks at the problem too simply, young people know what it means to be **? You have to take your time! But it is undeniable that this doll has a set of commercial films about foreign ghosts. Thinking of this, Han Sanping smiled and said: "Mr. Wang, do you think there is any possibility of cooperation? For a Sino-US joint venture blockbuster, you will be the director, and I will be named a producer." ”

Wang Yang smiled and shook his head, at the moment he is really not interested, especially since there is a situation of being controlled by others, and the color film is ...... He said seriously: "Mr. Han, I personally have no plans for the time being, but there are joint venture opportunities between our two companies. Flame Films is now very focused on the Chinese market, you know we have an animated film, Kung Fu Panda. ”

"It's just that the Chinese market is not mature enough, and if conditions permit in a few years, Flame will consider setting up an Oriental subsidiary to specialize in producing some Chinese-style films and bringing more good films to Chinese audiences and the world. ”

"Oh, that's a pity!" Han Sanping knew that this matter was reluctant to come, and he didn't care too much, who would shoot a commercial film or not? He could come by himself, and the most important thing was the star lineup! He remembered another purpose of this trip, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, your coming to Beijing is really a sensation! Many people want to know you! They all say that you are a movie fan or a fan, and my phone has not stopped in the past few days, and I want to get to know you." ”

Han Sanping smiled very happily, this incident made him feel quite dignified, even Zhang Weiping's people called! Maybe they were all rejected by this doll! The pie is really big! He smiled: "Ouch, I'll just peck and grind, just have a dinner, let's come together?" Hey, it's a charity dinner to raise money for **, just Friday night, celebrities and big names are coming, Mr. Wang, you are also here, get to know each other!"

“OK。 Wang Yang smiled and nodded, the interest in his heart was not high, whether these dinner parties were in Los Angeles or Beijing, it was very annoying to participate in too much, although it was a charity dinner, he now likes to donate money directly. But it doesn't matter, since so many people want to get to know him, it seems like a good thing to get all of them all in one dinner.

When this meeting was over, Wang Yang returned to the classically decorated senior suite, and after washing up, he lay down on the bed tiredly, covered the quilt and exhaled, and felt really tired when he lay down! He looked at the ceiling for a while, and then picked up the mobile phone at the bedside and dialed a number.

As soon as he got off the plane and reported his safety, he now feels that he has a "daily voice weight", and if he doesn't hear enough for a day, he will feel wrong, and he has no heart to do anything else. As soon as the phone was connected, he smiled and said, "Hey, sweetheart!" Jessica over there said excitedly, "Good evening, baby." ”

"Good morning!" Wang Yang turned around, pillowed his pillow more comfortably, remembered the events of the whole day today, and smiled: "Wow, I'm a very, very superstar here!

"Of course! No one likes to grow old. Listening to her nice laughter on the phone, Wang Yang smiled again: "Everyone loves money! And - gifts! I bought you some gifts, I promise you will like it, praise myself!" Jessica asked with interest: "What is that?" Wang Yang smiled: "Guess what?"

"I guess it'......"
