At 9 a.m. on November 15, Zhang Ran walked into a conference room in Huairen Hall in Zhongnanhai under the leadership of the staff.

There were nine participants sitting at the oval table, all of whom Zhang Ran knew, including Zhang Hongsen, deputy director of the General Administration of the People's Republic of China, Tong Gang, director of the Film Bureau, Han Shanping, chairman of the China Film Group, Ren Zhonglun, chairman of the Shanghai Film Group, Li Xuejian, chairman of the China Film Association, Yin Hong, professor of Tsinghua University and vice chairman of the China Literature and Art Critics Association, Yin Li, director of the film "The Ballad of Yunshui" of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, Zeng Maojun, general manager of Wanda Cinema Line, and screenwriter Liu Heng.

Zhang Ran saw at a glance the nameplate with his name written on it, next to Tong Gang, and next to himself was Han Sanping.

When everyone present saw Zhang Ran coming in, they all greeted him with a smile: "Zhang Ran, you are here!", "You busy man has finally appeared!"

Zhang Ran greeted everyone and sat down at his place.

After Han Shanping next to him sat down, he said with a smile: "You have made large-scale acquisitions every year in the past three years, I don't know which company you are going to acquire next year?"

Zhang Ran thought about it, the peak of the century is really a big acquisition once a year, haha laughed: "Don't you say that I haven't noticed it, now that you say this, I really have to think about it!" He glanced at the Motorola mobile phone that Han Shanping put on the table, pinched his chin and said: "The Motorola mobile phone is good, why don't you buy Motorola?"

Han Shanping laughed and said: "I support you, anyway, as long as you don't buy our Zhongying!"

After chatting for a few words, Han Shanping lowered his voice and reminded: "When you speak for a while, pay a little attention." ”

It's not the first time Zhang Ran has come to this kind of occasion, what he can say and what he can't say, so he naturally knows what he knows. However, he knew that Han Shanping had good intentions, and he was worried that he would poke out something, so he nodded with a smile, indicating that he understood.

At 9:20 a.m., people from the ****** office walked into the conference room, followed by the prime minister. As soon as he came in, Zhang Ran and the others quickly stood up and greeted respectfully. The prime minister came over with a smile and shook hands with Zhang Ran and them cordially.

When shaking hands with Zhang Ran, the prime minister patted Zhang Ran on the shoulder and said cordially: "I watched "Tangshan Earthquake", it was shot very well, and it showed the spirit and courage of our nation in the face of disasters, and more movies like this should be made!"

Zhang Ran hurriedly said: "I must shoot more!"

The prime minister bowed slightly, took out a booklet, and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhang, help me sign it!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was shocked, Han Shanping's jaws fell to the ground, my God, the prime minister actually asked Zhang Ran to sign for him, what is the situation? Could it be that the prime minister is a fan of Zhang Ran? This is too exaggerated, right?

Seeing Zhang Ran's surprised face, the prime minister explained with a smile: "There is a little fan of yours at home, and he knows that you are coming to a meeting, let me help him ask for an autograph!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that it was the child of the prime minister's family who wanted to sign it, not the prime minister, but they still looked at Zhang Ran with envy, after all, it was the child of the prime minister's family!

Zhang Ran hurriedly took out the pen, signed it in the envious eyes of everyone, and handed it to the prime minister.

The prime minister put the pamphlet away and said with satisfaction: "Now I have an explanation for the little fans at home!"

After shaking hands with everyone, the prime minister sat down in his place, swept the crowd with his gaze, and smiled: "Comrades, we are meeting now. ”

The delegates at the meeting sat up straight as if they were elementary school students in class.

The prime minister didn't say anything opening remarks and went straight to the point: " There are two reasons why we hold this symposium today: first, after more than ten years of hard work, Chinese films have made great progress and have become a big film country, and the box office revenue of Chinese films has exceeded 10 billion yuan last year, and the film industry has made great strides forward, and has achieved phased results in the development of industrialization, which also proves the strong impetus brought by the reform of the cultural system, but we are still only a big film country, not a film power, and next, we need to transform a big film country into a film power; second, in August, TO ruled that we lost the lawsuit for restricting the import of American films, although we filed an appeal, it is unlikely to win, and it will be within the next two or three years, the country may relax restrictions on Hollywood films, and Chinese films will have to face the challenge of Hollywood, a behemoth!"

Zhang Ran knew that he had guessed correctly, the symposium was really related to TO's defeat, and the "Film Promotion Law" was really about to be launched!

The prime minister looked at everyone and continued: "In order to accelerate the realization of China's grand goal of transforming from a film country to a film power, and also to cope with the challenges brought by Hollywood films, ****** will soon issue the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Prosperity and Development of the Film Industry", and will launch a series of measures to promote the deepening reform of the film industry, promote the leapfrog development of China's film industry, and realize the historic transformation from a film country to a film power." I invite you to come here today just to hear your opinions. Speaking of this, he turned to the secretary and said, "Xiao Wang, distribute the relevant documents." After everyone gets the document, take a closer look at it and talk about their views later. ”

The secretary hurriedly got up and handed out a stack of documents to Zhang Ran and the others one by one, and each of them got a copy of the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Prosperity and Development of the Film Industry", which was specifically marked as a draft. Obviously****** this film work symposium is to make some corrections on the basis of listening to everyone's opinions.

Zhang Ran carefully flipped through the pages and found that the "Guiding Opinions" were not long, only three pages long, but they were quite rich in content, and put forward ten measures to accelerate the prosperity and development of the film industry: 1. While the quantity is growing steadily, more emphasis should be placed on improving the quality; 2. Accelerate the transformation of state-owned film institutions into enterprises and the transformation of the company system and the shareholding system; 3. Further deepen the reform of the cinema system; 4. Vigorously support the construction of digital cinemas in cities and towns; 5. Encourage financial institutions to increase financial support for film enterprises; 6. Actively promote scientific and technological innovation; 7. Vigorously implement the project of digital projection of rural films; 8. Actively implement the strategy of films going out to enhance their international influence; 9. Accelerate the establishment and improvement of the laws, regulations, and policy system to promote the development of the film industry, focusing on promoting the formulation, promulgation, and implementation of the "Film Industry Promotion Law", and formulate and improve relevant supporting policies for deepening film reform; 10. Vigorously strengthen team building.

After reading the document, Zhang Ran was very excited, from the "Guiding Opinions" he really felt that the state should vigorously support the film industry, and there were quite a lot of highlights in the entire "Guiding Opinions", such as Article 9, which has clearly stated that it is necessary to focus on promoting the formulation and promulgation and implementation of the "Film Industry Promotion Law", then next, the legislative work of the "Film Industry Promotion Law" will enter the fast lane.

Everyone else present was also full of excitement, Han Shanping and Ren Zhonglun saw the possibility of their units going public, and others also saw all kinds of benefits.

Everyone is aware that the "Guiding Opinions" will not only clearly affirm the cultural and industrial attributes and advantages of films, but also escort the great development of the mainland film industry at the policy and industry levels.

Whether it is for filmmakers or the entire film industry, it is a great benefit!

Seeing that everyone had put down their hands in Chinese, the prime minister smiled and said: "Everyone has read the document, now let's talk about our own views, and you can put forward any good suggestions and ideas!"

Everyone present was silent, especially officials like Tong Gang, as well as CEOs of state-owned enterprises like Han Shanping, who had a lot of worries in their hearts, if they spoke too shallowly, they seemed to have no level; if they spoke too deeply, if they touched some forbidden areas, they might be ****, and they had to be cautious.

Zhang Ran is not worried about this, but this "Guiding Opinions" is a typical official eight shares, many things are hidden under the text, and there are a total of ten articles, each of which involves a lot of content, and he needs time to digest them one by one.

The prime minister was not surprised to see that no one spoke, and it was not the first time he had encountered such a situation, so he smiled and encouraged: "Don't have any worries, I invite you to come today just to listen to the real thoughts of you professionals, and I hope you will contribute to the development of the film industry. ”

Since the prime minister has said so, if he pretends to be dumb again, he will appear incompetent. Zhang Hongsen was the first to stand up: "Prime Minister, let me talk about my views, since the reform and opening up, driven by the industrialization policy, after years of rapid development, the overall situation of Chinese films has been greatly improved, and breakthroughs have been made in many aspects, especially in the past two years, the film industry has overcome many unfavorable economic factors and maintained a strong upward momentum in the context of the global financial crisis......

“…… The whole world has been squeezed out by the Hollywood film market, but Chinese films are the only ones that are outstanding, and now they are a big film country. But how to move from a big film country to a film power, the promulgation of the "Guiding Opinions" will be an important milestone in the history of Chinese film development and an important turning point!" Zhang Hongsen talked endlessly for five minutes, then smiled at the premier and said, "Premier, this is my personal opinion, not very mature. ”

During Zhang Hongsen's speech, the premier always listened with a smile. After Zhang Hongsen finished speaking, he bowed his head slightly and said: "The work of your General Administration is very important, and you must do a good job in overall control. ”

Zhang Ran rolled his eyes at Zhang Hongsen's speech, thinking that his remarks were too bureaucratic and did not put forward much substantive things at all, and he talked a lot about it, in fact, there are two meanings: first, the state's "Guiding Opinions" are very good and very meaningful; second, our General Administration will understand the spirit of the "Guiding Opinions" and contribute to the prosperity of China's film industry; in short, the leadership is far-sighted, the "Guiding Opinions" are very good, and Chinese films are full of hope.

After Zhang Hongsen began, everyone else spoke enthusiastically, almost all of them were Zhang Hongsen's routines, praising the "Guiding Opinions", saying what are the highlights of the document and what benefits it can bring to Chinese films; and then talking about how he will implement this document well, and by the way, he vaguely praised his work achievements.

Only Yin Hong put forward a little constructive opinion when he spoke, he believes that film is a creative industry, the core is people's thoughts, from creation to distribution are full of precious creative thinking, and it is very important to implement supervision in legislation, so the legislation of the "Film Promotion Law" should be accelerated, and the law should be used to escort domestic films.

Yin Hong specifically talked about one thing, that is, in the process of discussing the film law, experts on the definition of film had great differences, it was difficult to reach a consensus, and they had been arguing endlessly, and it took two or three years to determine the standard of using film as a shooting carrier, but now the film is going to be eliminated, and the film law has not yet come out, so he suggested not to do meaningless roff, and to legislate as soon as possible!

Only then did Zhang Ran know why the "Film Promotion Law" had been discussed for so many years and never came out, he drew a circle in his heart and cursed those experts who like to rip off skins.

At this moment, the prime minister's eyes fell on Zhang Ran: "Xiao Zhang, talk about your opinion!"
