Chapter 658: Establishing Rules
Chen Bosheng nodded when he heard this, and said, "Didn't Wu Sheng propose that the Chinese Academy Awards should be inclusive? Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoHowever, the mainland office in Xiangjiang sent three movies before, and after we watched them, we felt that two of them were a little wrong, so I wanted you to get an idea......, Wu Sheng."
When Wu Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and finally said: "This kind of thing, isn't it good that the Organizing Committee of the Academy Awards has an idea? If I also participate in this, it will be unfair to other film companies or filmmakers, isn't it?"
Chen Bosheng nodded and said, "I know this, but we have also had a few meetings in private, but we still have our own opinions, and we can't make up our minds." That's why I thought of coming over and asking your opinion, after all, the Chinese Academy Awards were proposed by Wu Sheng, you first......"
Wu Cheng couldn't help laughing, and finally said, "What's the problem?"
Chen Bosheng said in a low voice: "Three films, one is the cartoon "Nezha and the Sea", and the other two are movies with red colors, one is "From Slave to General", and the other is "Ah! Cradle", the cartoon needless to say, our Chinese Academy Awards Under Wu Sheng's proposal, there is indeed an award for the best animated film, our own film in Xiangjiang is in this area, and now it can be said that it is almost blank, but other regions are different, and there are also cartoons sent over there on the treasure island." ”
Wu Cheng knows this, Xiangjiang is very lacking in cartoons, but Wu Cheng doesn't care, after all, the Chinese Film Awards are not only facing Xiangjiang.
Moreover, Wu Cheng's Fengyun Comics Club has also begun to produce cartoons, although it is not an animated film, but the trend of developing towards this area is inevitable. That's why he proposed to set up such an award, which can be regarded as promoting the development of Chinese animation!
"However, the problem lies in the other two films, because they are set during the war, so I am worried that the authorities on the Treasure Island side will have ideas. ”
Hearing this, Wu Cheng couldn't help but touch his chin and condensed.
Having said that, during this period, in the mainland, if the film wants to have a 'prospect', it has to be political/politically correct, that is, it has to shoot something with the main theme.
And in this period, the so-called main theme, apart from the touching stories that happened during the war years, is there anything that conforms to the main theme?
Therefore, it is completely understandable that the films of this period in the mainland have appeared in a movie set in the war period. However, once it comes to the 'civil war', it will definitely involve the treasure island side, if for this reason, the treasure island side unilaterally withdraws from the competition for the Chinese Film Awards, it is definitely not a good thing for this award.
Treasure Island filmmakers may not do this, but there is absolutely no doubt that the Treasure Island authorities will definitely do such a strange thing.
The face of the mainland naturally has to be given, but the face of the treasure island authorities naturally has to be taken into account, this is indeed a very headache, no wonder he will come over to ask for advice.
After thinking about it, Wu Cheng had no choice but to say: "Are there any suspicions in those two films involving smearing the authorities of Baodao? If so, let's just go back! Let's make movies and do art, not mixed with politics/politics." If the people in the mainland office in Xiangjiang are not satisfied, you can say that this is the voice of all filmmakers in Xiangjiang, and it's a big deal not to play!"
Wu Cheng hadn't seen these films, and he definitely couldn't find them in the memory tree, so he didn't know much about them.
"This ......" Chen Bosheng hesitated a little, is this really okay?
Wu Cheng smiled and said: "Don't worry! Mainland filmmakers haven't reacted yet, the main theme of their current side is to make this kind of movie, and the film is still in the hands of the state in the mainland, so the autonomy of filmmakers over there is too weak." Even if some people don't want to make this kind of film all the time, but the country wants you to make it, do you want to make it?"
"No, can it still be like this?" Chen Bosheng didn't seem to know much about the situation over there.
Wu Cheng shook his head and said: "But they haven't reacted yet, after all, the Chinese Film Awards have just been held this year, and next year will be the first one, so they are definitely not fully prepared, and they don't understand some rules." And now is the time to set the rules. If they don't harden up now, they will definitely have to make inches in the future, and it will be really difficult to do it then. ”
"If they don't play with us in a fit of rage, will they have to pay for the loss?"
Wu Cheng smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry! The chief designer over there is a very person, and he can see the opportunities that exist here." It is now in the development stage, and it needs to be recognized internationally, and it urgently needs such a window to convey information to the outside world. So they're going to change accordingly eventually. ”
"Yes...... But what if they just don't change!"
Wu Cheng rolled his eyes speechlessly, which made Chen Bosheng a little embarrassed.
There was no way, Wu Cheng had no choice but to continue: "It doesn't matter if you don't change, sooner or later the movies over there will shift from state-owned to private, so those filmmakers will come here sooner or later, compared to it, it will definitely be much more convenient for them to get awards and go to Europe to gain experience and reputation." This point will gradually change with the changes of the times, let's just watch!"
Chen Bosheng nodded, indicating that he understood.
"By the way, is Sir Shao interested in broadcasting this Chinese Academy Awards ceremony live?" Wu Cheng suddenly thought of this, and he had asked Chen Bosheng to ask Shao Daheng before.
Chen Bosheng said with a wry smile: "Sir Shao is not very interested in this, mainly because the transfer fee of three million live broadcast rights makes him feel too high, and it is not easy to say how many ratings this award ceremony can have." Sir Shao obviously wouldn't joke with the money. ”
Wu Cheng couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this, and said: "That old fox is the master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles, look at it! As long as you do a good job this time, they will definitely rush for the next live broadcast right." In this way, I will give you a transfer fee of 3 million for the live broadcast rights, and then sign the priority right to broadcast the live broadcast of the Chinese Academy Awards in the next five years, as for the annual transfer fee, it depends on the situation at that time, how about it? In this way, you will have more funds for your activities, you are not afraid of being stretched, and you can invite more guests, and the layout of the venue ...... Well, this one, just leave it to our Longfeng TV station! The venue layout must not be too small......
"Wu Sheng, you ......" Chen Bosheng smiled bitterly, and said with a straight face at the end: "Although Wu Sheng, you have helped a lot of Chinese Academy Awards, we will not give you preferential treatment, please forgive me for this!"
Wu Cheng waved his hand and smiled: "I don't want you to do this either, if you can't maintain the principle of neutrality, then this Chinese Academy Award will be meaningless." Although we can't compare to the Oscars at first, I also hope that we don't inferiorize them too much. ”
In Wu Cheng's view, if the Chinese Academy Awards are successfully held, then it represents the face of Chinese films, if this face cannot maintain the principle of impartiality and neutrality, it is equivalent to losing the face of Chinese films, so what is the rise of Chinese films?
Wu Cheng is not afraid of spending money, as long as this can be held successfully, it will only be a matter of minutes to earn this money back in the future. The direct right transfer fee of three million is indeed not low, but it is also a matter of no choice. The Academy Awards Organizing Committee doesn't have any money, but what if there is no money?
So, in the long run, if the organizing committee has no choice in the end, who knows that they will be so happy that they can't help but 'collect money to do things'?
And Wu Cheng's behavior of buying the live broadcast rights in advance is equivalent to providing them with activity funds, which is definitely a charcoal in the snow for the Academy Awards Organizing Committee.
This kind of behavior made Chen Bosheng secretly respect Wu Cheng, and felt that he was a filmmaker who really considered Chinese films.
The two chatted for a while, and then Chen Bosheng got up to say goodbye.
After Chen Bosheng left, Wu Cheng fell into deep thought.
As a result, it didn't take long for Le Yiling to knock on the door again, "Boss, Director Xu Kexu wants to see you, do you have time?"
Wu Cheng was stunned for a moment and said, "Let him come in!"
Speaking of Xu Laowei, this guy doesn't know if he has been restricted to gentle incense recently, and after filming "Butterfly Change", he has not made any moves. And the movie "Butterfly Change", although the box office seems to be higher than the original time and space, in Donglong International, the box office of two or three million is really nothing.
It can be said that such a result is almost the bottom of the existence.
I have to say that love is really a magical thing. Xu Laowei's achievements, in the eyes of outsiders, must be a very talented director, but in Shi Nansheng's opinion, he feels that this guy who looks thin actually has great potential.
I have to say that Shi Nansheng's vision is indeed very good. Of course, if it weren't for the empathy of this old monster Xu later. But that was thirty or forty years later.
In the original time and space, the two of them met in the late seventies and got married, and after nearly 20 years of long-distance running, but this marriage lasted for more than ten years.
What happened in the middle, Wu Cheng didn't know, so he didn't have to say anything.
Wu Cheng never asked about the relationship between the two of them, after all, he didn't have any thoughts about Shi Nansheng, he just admired her talent.
If he had an idea, he would have done it a long time ago.
"Wu Sheng, I didn't get involved in your work!" "Old Monster Xu came in with a folder in his hand and asked a little embarrassedly.
Wu Cheng beckoned to him and said, "Don't be so polite, sit down!"
When Xu Laowei sat down, Wu Cheng couldn't help but tease, and said: "From the release of "Butterfly Change" to the present, after resting for so long, I thought you were thrown into a honey pot and didn't prepare to come out!
Xu Laowei coughed lightly, directly handed over the folder in his hand, and changed the topic of Wu Cheng by the way, and said, "Boss, this is the script I wrote, can you shoot it?" (To be continued.) )
