Chapter 677: Zhang Shao's grievances
Zhang Ziqing hung up the phone with a cold face, he really didn't expect that Yang Ming would also get the quota for film import discovery at this time and obtain a public screening license.
What made him feel the most annoyed was that he insisted on taking the joint venture shooting of Zhonghuang Entertainment and Pan American Entertainment as an example.
National policy stipulates that as long as it is a film jointly produced by China and the United States, it does not need to occupy the film import quota, but now that Oriental DreamWorks has directly acquired a film company in Hollywood, how can this be calculated?
In order to promote the joint venture filming between China and the United States, Zhang Ziqing used some of the family's resources in the government, but he didn't expect that he would take great pains to finally let Oriental DreamWorks also occupy it.
This made Zhang Ziqing feel a kind of aggrieved and depressed discomfort.
But it's not good for him to make a big deal about this kind of thing, after all, he is using family resources to achieve this cooperation, and during the period, in order to bypass the policy's restrictions on joint venture shooting, he has made a lot of shady means.
After the matter is big, although the dream of Oriental DreamWorks can be disappointed, then Zhonghuang Entertainment and Pan American Entertainment will definitely not feel good.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ziqing slammed the teacup in his hand to the ground.
"Yang Ming!"
He actually made a wedding dress for this guy, and he felt aggrieved when he thought about it.
It's just that Yang Ming didn't know that with Guo Rentao's greeting, he and Liu Xinsheng quickly got the release license.
In fact, the government has relaxed a lot of restrictions in this regard, and the director Wang revealed just now that this kind of restriction will disappear soon, after all, China is the most powerful country in the world market economy, and this kind of foreign protection policy cannot last long.
It is only because of the particularity of the cultural market that the state has made some restrictions, and it is estimated that these restrictions will be lifted soon under the general trend.
Therefore, Yang Ming and the others got the public screening license so easily.
Of course, without Minister Guo's help in arranging, it would not be very easy for ordinary people to get it.
It can be seen why a film will have two different box office numbers if it is distributed to two different film companies.
Film distribution companies that are older, have strong backgrounds and connections, use much more resources than ordinary distribution companies.
Whether it is the classification of movies or the number of theatrical screen releases, these veteran film distribution companies are not comparable to ordinary film companies.
For Oriental DreamWorks, the weakest link is undoubtedly film distribution.
Huaxia is a little better, Yang Ming acquired the Academy Cinema Line, and mastered most of the shares of the Donghai Cinema Line, local film distribution, he doesn't have too much to worry about, and now that the United States has Barber joining, I believe he will also use his connections and connections to strengthen the distribution ability of Hollywood Oriental DreamWorks.
However, tall buildings cannot be built in a day, and they need to be built slowly.
If it weren't for the fact that all the funds in Yang Ming's hands had been spent, otherwise he would definitely have to buy a cinema company in the United States, and only what was in his hands would really belong to him.
After Yang Ming handled the release permit of "Die Hard", he asked Alva to go back and report to Bobble, and when the time came, as long as the film was sent to the Film Review Committee for classification.
After finishing this matter, he began to take the crew to continue filming in the blue screen studio, but the progress was much slower than the previous on-site shooting.
After all, in the blue screen, there is no scene, it is all up to the imagination of the actors, and the emotional actions of the performance are required to match the scenes in the synthesized picture, which is undoubtedly a challenge to the actors' experience and acting skills.
Yang Ming also experienced this kind of shooting scene for the first time, but fortunately, with Roland on the side, the crew did not have too much chaos.
He also congratulated himself on his decision to let Barber find himself an assistant director who had seen big scenes in Hollywood.
Half a month later, Yang Ming received a call from Barber again, this time Barber asked him if he would come to the premiere of "Die Hard".
He thought about it and refused, now "2012" is being filmed intensively, if it is delayed any longer, maybe it will really not be able to catch up with the Spring Festival schedule.
Especially now, the joint venture film between Zhonghuang Entertainment and Pan American Entertainment is even more aggressive, and in the media, I don't know whether it is intentional or unintentional, and often compares these two movies.
The cost of producing zuò is more than 500 million blockbusters, and it is announced that the filming will start in about the same time.
How can this not get those media excited.
And the momentum of this comparison has become more and more fierce recently, and Yang Ming even wonders if someone is deliberately manipulating it behind it.
Yang Ming didn't expect that he had just refused Barber to attend the premiere of "Die Hard", and Zheng Wen and Mr. Lan of the Major League of Basketball also came over.
"The premiere of "Road to Glory", you must be there!" Mr. Lan sent a warm invitation to Yang Ming.
Mr. Lan's approach made Yang Ming a little suspicious that "Road to Glory" was not filmed by Oriental DreamWorks, but by other film companies.
"This?" Yang Ming hesitantly glanced at the camera not far away, and didn't know what to say.
During this time, he basically didn't go to the company, and the basic things were handled by Liu Xinsheng, if there was anything he couldn't call the shots, he would report it by phone and let Yang Ming take the idea, if it wasn't for Mr. Lan and Zheng Wen both finding the studio today, he really forgot that his company's latest movie was about to be released!
"Yang Ming, don't tell me that you still have to shoot at night!" Zheng Wen said with a smile, with inexplicable excitement on his face.
He has to say that the script that Yang Ming gave him is really fantastic, although he has not made a movie about sports, but through this movie, he really felt the unusual charm of this script that Yang Ming gave him.
Especially the sub-shots given by Yang Ming benefited him, the former Golden Dragon Award winner, a lot.
Therefore, he is very eager to hope that Yang Ming can attend the premiere of "Road to Glory".
Seeing the solemnity on Mr. Lan's face and the hint of expectation revealed by Zheng Wen, Yang Ming couldn't push it back, so he nodded and agreed.
Fortunately, the premiere of "Road to Glory" is Yanjing, he doesn't need to travel, he doesn't need to fly, and he doesn't need to change the jet lag, which is more convenient.
Seeing Yang Ming nodding and agreeing to participate in the premiere of "Road to Glory", Mr. Lan couldn't help laughing happily, patted Yang Ming on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Yang, the guests on the scene will definitely not let you down!"
Yang Ming couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and asked, "Mr. Lan, you won't make the scene too big, right?"
"You'll know when the time comes. Mr. Lan smiled mysteriously and refused to reveal his tone.
The premiere of "Road to Glory" is still the luxury cinema of the old Donghai Cinema Line in Yanjing, and now this cinema is basically the designated premiere location of Oriental DreamWorks.
Yang Ming saw Mr. Lan's mysterious smile, and couldn't help but be a little curious about which guests would attend the premiere of "Road to Glory" at that time.
