111【Opportunity to enter the international market】
Ten o'clock in the evening. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, it's still the time when most people are happy.
Xu Wenhui took Zhong Chuhong, the main palace, and was invited to the banquet.
There is also Xu Laowei, and now this person is the only director under Xu Wenhui, so he naturally wants to help more!
Zhong Chuhong held Xu Wenhui's hand, and Xu Lao Wei followed behind more like a follower.
"Good evening, Director Li. ”
As soon as Xu Wenhui and the three of them entered the box, they saw Li Hanshen dressed in black, and a middle-aged man who was not tall but very burly: "Hello Mr. Hu, I'm glad to meet you and I'm your fan." ”
Xu Wenhui's words were three points of politeness, three points of admiration, and four points of respect.
When I was a child, I was very excited to watch his movies, and I enjoyed fighting and killing.
Rewatching "Legend in the Mountains" and "The Heroine", I couldn't get in at first, because its film language was already the language of the seventies, but after slowly entering, I will feel that it is very complete in aesthetics, and Xu Wenhui admires Xu Wenhui very much because of the grasp of the overall atmosphere and the moderation of the movements.
Hu Jinquan writes wildly in space with the flesh and blood of the characters, and the richness of imagination and superb skills are stunning.
Even Zhang Qu once threatened that if he was born a few decades later, he could make films on the mainland, or if he had foreign financial support, his achievements should be more than that.
It can be seen that Hu Jinquan is strong.
There is a good saying, Hu Jinquan in the world, Li Hanshen in China, and Zhang Quan on the Internet, Xu Wenhui thinks it is very reasonable!
......
"Where, I'm bothering me today. Hu Jinquan said politely. "I'm also your fan, your Golden Branch Desire is very good, and in some aspects it is much better than Brother Li. ”
"You two don't be polite, sit down. Li Han said in detail.
Xu Wenhui introduced: "By the way, this is my girlfriend Zhong Chuhong, and this is my company's director Xu Ke. ”
"Your girlfriend is so beautiful and attractive, are you interested in cooperating with me in filming?" Li Hanshen noticed her at the beginning.
Zhong Chuhong said with a smile: "Thank you Director Li for your appreciation, if the schedule allows, I will be happy." ”
When she spoke, she looked at Xu Wenhui, and the meaning was obvious, she was an employee under Xu Wenhui, and the relationship between the two was mainly based on her own man.
"Hahaha, then there's a chance to work together. But Ah Hui, you're lucky to have found such a great girlfriend. Li Hanshen laughed.
······
Xu Wenhui also smiled happily, he was actually not dissatisfied with Zhong Chuhong, a woman, except that he had no knowledge and was not from a big family, everything else was good.
However, isn't Xu Wenhui the same?
In fact, the two of them are more compatible with women like Yang Xuanyi.
Today's incident in the car also made the scum Hui make up his mind, let's have a showdown, anyway, greedy, scum will not let go of any woman if he is him, he is Tang Seng, this group of female goblins want to run?
······
Xu Laowei also chatted with Hu Jinquan.
The two seem to have a lot in common, but in fact, both of them are the kind of romantic people.
Indeed, most people watch Zhang Qu and Chu Yuan's films more than Hu Jinquan and Li Hanxiang's, but it is undeniable.
The artistic value of Hu Jinquan and Li Hanxiang's films is higher than that of Zhang Qu and Chu Yuan, and the attitude of filming is also more rigorous than that of Zhang Qu and Chu Yuan, and they pay more attention to the overall quality of the works, and Zhang Qu and Chu Yuan pay more attention to commercial value!
However, although he is not compatible with Zhang Qu, Xu Wenhui is actually also a commercial director, and he prefers to make commercial movies like Zhang Qu and Chu Yuan.
Li Hanxiang's film Xu Wenhui has only watched costume epics such as listening to politics with curtains and burning the Old Summer Palace, and he has not seen a few early Fengyue films, and he has almost finished watching most of the masterpieces of the other three!
In the field of martial arts films, Hu Jinquan and Zhang Qu, who were born on the set, once led the way, and Hu Jinquan gained international fame with "Chivalrous Girl" in 1975.
And Xu Laowei has studied professional courses in film in the United States, and his innovative thinking is off the charts, and it is only a matter of time before martial arts movies are updated.
The back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves, Xu Laowei gradually established his status as a martial arts master, while Li Hanxiang and Hu Jinquan ended their film careers lonely.
········
"Director Hu, I still have a lot of questions I want to ask you, I have seen your chivalrous woman, and I appreciate it very much. ”
"Let's have a good chat in private when we have a chance. ”
"Thank you so much Director Hu. ”
········
"....." Xu Wenhui wiped his forehead with his middle finger, speaking of which, Xu Laowei also disagreed with these two big directors in another time and space, Hu Jinquan worked hard for "Smiling Proud Jianghu", but only a dozen shots shot by Hu Jinquan were retained in the final film.
And Hu Jinquan married Li Hanshen as brothers with different surnames in his early years.
Hu and Li were at odds with Zhang Qi from the beginning, and Li and Zhang often reported and scolded each other in order to compete for the position of first director.
The incident between Xu Laowei and Hu Jinquan, no wonder Li Hanxiang wanted to speak for his brother and threatened: I'd rather starve to death than cooperate with Xu Laowei!
Now that Xu Wenhui and the three of them are in trouble, I don't know what the situation will be in the future.
But anyway, now that Xu Laowei has signed a three-year film contract, he is a member of Xu Wenhui's faction, and he is the opposite of Zhang Qu, as for Hu Jinquan and Li Hanxiang, they may still cooperate.
········
"Mr. Hu, I don't know if you're looking for me this time, right?"
"This. Li Hanshen and Hu Jinquan glanced at each other.
Hu Jinquan said: "Actually, I have a movie to make recently, but I'm looking for investors. ”
"What movie?"
"One tells the life story of a scholar, with Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism as the explanation. I named it "Legend of the Mountain"
········
As soon as he heard the title of this movie, Xu Wenhui secretly said that sure enough, this movie should belong to one of Hu Jinquan's late works.
I filmed it for more than a year.
"Legend in the Mountains" won 6 awards at the 19th Golden Horse Awards, but few people have seen this film that is more than three hours long.
It should be said that at the beginning, the audience in Stay Bay wanted to see this movie made by an international director, but unfortunately the good times were not long, and within a few days of the performance, they were criticized that they couldn't understand it and the story was not finished, and some viewers even bluntly said, "The artistic conception is very beautiful, but the pace is messy, which makes people feel out of breath and out of breath in the middle!", which made the box office of "Legend in the Mountains" fall from the peak to the bottom.
In fact, "Legend in the Mountains" is 190 minutes long. However, in order to match the daily screenings of domestic theaters, the filmmaker forced it to cut it into a 115-minute version, although the director was unwilling and to no avail.
What's even more ridiculous is that even Hu Jinquan himself has not seen this cut version, so that the background of the characters in the film's previous life, cause and effect have all been lost, leaving a weak story structure, no wonder the audience is foggy.
The episode that made Xu Wenhui gimmicked was that actor Sun Yue stayed in Bangzi Country for a whole year with the director who worked slowly and meticulously in order to shoot this film. When the film was released, Sun Yue didn't even have a single shot, similar to Zhang Zhen, who spent three years filming Xiangjiang director Wang Jiawei's "The Grandmaster", and ended up with only three scenes.
······
Xu Wenhui has seen it, but I'm afraid few Chinese filmmakers haven't seen it.
There are many versions of this movie, and I have seen the full version, and the artistic conception is indeed beautiful, but today, "Legend in the Mountains" is the product of Hu Jinquan's extremely inflated personal will, a meticulously crafted and ingenious work of art, and it is also a substandard mass culture product that completely deviates from the laws of filmmaking - it cannot be incorporated into a certain established genre, and opens a gap with Hu Jinquan's past chivalrous classics.
Feelings can't be eaten.
For researchers, the vast majority regard him as an unborn filmmaker and art master.
From the perspective of investors and producers, Xu Wenhui, as a person who focuses on making movies only for profit, is unwilling to throw money into the sea!
·······
Xu Wenhui subconsciously wanted to refuse.
After listening to the general situation of this film.
Xu Wenhui groaned and said, "I don't know how much Director Hu needs to invest in this film?"
"I've found it, Fengnian Pictures and First Pictures, they are willing to invest 3 million together, but there are still some gaps..."Hu Jinquan smiled: "If I can, I think another 500,000 should be enough." ”
glanced at him strangely, Xu Wenhui felt that the other party was not a qualified businessman, and he didn't even have a guarantee of box office revenue, so he called himself an investment.
Fengnian and First Pictures also gave him a pit, and this investment is estimated to be lost.
·····
Xu Wenhui said slowly: "I still have 500,000 yuan, and I also believe in Mr. Hu's directing ability, but Mr. Hu wants to get the editing right, and he can't let the merchant tamper with it, and this must be written in the contract." ”
"This is no problem, this is negotiable. Hu Jinquan said overjoyed.
Although I don't know why Xu Wenhui emphasized this, but he didn't think it was a big deal, Hu Jinquan agreed.
·····
The reason why he promised it.
Xu Wenhui thought about it, considering his influence in Duwan and the international market, although "Legend in the Mountains" was a box office waterloo in Xiangjiang, unexpectedly, film critics from all over the world spoke highly of the film, and invited Hu Jinquan to participate in the film festival, and also won a number of awards in Duwan Bay......
And this may be an opportunity to enter the international market!
