At the beginning of June 2007, Mai Xiaoyu, who was in a beautiful mood, bid farewell to the beautiful scenery of Cannes and flew back to Yanjing with Ke Haoyi. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Unlike last time, those treacherous overseas publishers don't have to deal with it.

Hualong Pictures is the international distributor of "This Man from Earth", and is fully responsible for the overseas distribution of the film.

By the way, there is also Huaxia, this film is absolutely impossible to be released in Huaxia theaters, at most it will land on Storm Video next year, which is exactly the same as "Fatal ID" that year.

During this trip to Cannes, the bait was very fragrant and successful, and it caused a sensation in China.

At this year's Cannes Film Festival, the Chinese Film Corps was full of confidence when they set out, but after the film festival ended, the whole army was wiped out, and the word "embarrassment" was written on their faces.

On the contrary, it was the "black households" who shone brightly and made quite a stir in Europe.

Although the most noisy media are all black Chinese professionals, using "This Man is from Earth" to jump up and down, many foreign film critics have a good evaluation of this movie, and the movie itself is also sought after by overseas distributors, which is real.

Before Mai Xiaoyu returned to China, the tone of the European black Chinese professional media changed, saying that at this year's Cannes Film Festival, the participating Chinese films did not receive any money, but let the "black households" dominate the scene, and there must be a shadow of the Chinese official behind it.

That's right, the European media, who have been professional black for 20 years, have changed their tune and think that "This Man is from Earth" is a good science fiction film.

Slap yourself in the face?

No kidding.

Politics is dirty, does the media, which is manipulated by political groups, have face?

I don't have a face, so why do I slap my face?

At this year's Cannes Film Festival, although Huaxia films did not win awards, they also successfully sold many films, but the price was low and the limelight was not as popular as cute.

Liu Xiaoli naturally will not miss such a good opportunity.

When Mai Xiaoyu was still in Cannes, the cute people had already begun to build momentum, contacting the media, marketing companies and water armies to overwhelmingly promote "This Man is from Earth".

Screenwriter Ah Zheng and director Zhang Xiaoquan cost $20,000 to produce, filmed in the United States, all the actors were from the Screen Actors Guild, caused a sensation in Europe, and were sought after by distributors after the Cannes Film Festival......

There was no statement from the government or the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.

It's best not to express your position, but it's troublesome to express your position, because this cute movie was not submitted for review at all.

As for giving rise to "international" disputes...... What are you kidding, how can it rise to international heights, and it is too much to exalt those European media.

Besides, those European media have been committed to blackening China, and the Chinese government has long been surprised, how can it be possible to surrender its identity to be as knowledgeable as them?

Beginning last year, certain European countries actively joined forces to launch anti-dumping investigations against certain types of products in China.

China's semi-official media countered with the help of the cute movie "This Man is from Earth", denouncing Europe for double standards, which seriously affected the normal trade between China and EU countries based on mutual benefit and mutual trust.

The news that "This Man is from Earth" is favored by foreign distributors has made the entertainment industry feel like a dog.

$20,000!

Sci-fi!

I haven't gotten the Dragon Mark yet!

Even if a cute person is open, he can't be so tough, right?

And on the night of May 22, the Chinese filmmakers who went to the bar to watch the movie felt the most strongly, that was a feeling of being called by a dog.

There was a shock: the sci-fi film shot by Moe Man for 20,000 US dollars was actually very popular.

There are complaints: Although I only watched half of the movie, I felt that there was no selling point, and many drinkers left the scene early that night, which also showed that the movie was not good-looking, why did it reverse in the end?

There are regrets: In the two days when the Cannes Film Festival is about to end, you should go to the bar to watch the movie, analyze the plot structure, find the selling point, and see if you can replicate the success of the cute people.

There is a fluke: Fortunately, I didn't make a presumptuous assertion at the time, otherwise my face would hurt so much now.

……

There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand people, and because of the movie "This Man is from Earth", there are also many people with mixed feelings.

No, at four o'clock in the afternoon, Mai Xiaoyu took Ke Haoyi back to China, and when he left the Capital International Airport, he was invited away by Zhu Zeyuan, and he was called to celebrate him.

Zhu Zeyuan, a leader in the coal industry in Sanjin, a major shareholder of Blue Sky Real Estate, and one of the eight shareholders of Hualong Pictures, personally came to the airport to pick up the airport.

"Amazing, this Cannes Film Festival, your cute movies are the most showy. ”

In the extended version of Cadillacne, Zhu Zeyuan smiled and picked up the champagne to congratulate.

Mai Xiaoyu also smiled and held up the champagne: "Mistake, mistake." ”

"Haha, I've heard that things are out of your control in the end, but it's still good for you, isn't it?"

"It's good for us, the international agency sales right of the film, but it was handed over to Hualong, and Mr. Shi is still dealing with foreign distributors in Cannes. ”

Since its establishment, Hualong Pictures has been in the stage of burning money and paving the way. For the sake of film distribution channels, he sprinkled a lot of money and concentrated his efforts to open up the relationship network of American theaters, and now he has made small achievements.

However, the company's reputation is not obvious, which seriously restricts the company's development layout, until this year's Cannes Film Festival, with "This Man from the Earth", has won a certain degree of international recognition, and at the same time is conducive to opening up the film distribution market in many Western countries.

This is of great benefit to the future development of Hualong Pictures, and Zhu Zeyuan is one of the shareholders of Hualong Pictures.

The two took a sip of champagne, and Zhu Zeyuan asked, "You planned this alone?"

"No, thanks to some of the European media, hehe. ”

"Did this really get out of hand in the end?"

"Brother Zhu, what do you want to ask?"

Zhu Zeyuan laughed: "I just want to know how high your $20,000 science fiction movie will create in the future global box office." ”

How much does the global box office have?

Who knows.

It's really hard to say this kind of thing.

How many movies are highly anticipated before the release, and people from all walks of life think how high they can fly, but after the release, they fell so badly, and Xiang came out.

Mai Xiaoyu didn't have a score in his heart, and he didn't make predictions.

Zhu Zeyuan took Mai Xiaoyu to a high-end membership-based private club, where he celebrated tonight, and found Li Qiang, the owner of Sunshine Real Estate, to accompany him, which can be regarded as a small gathering of the three shareholders of Blue Sky Real Estate.

This private club looks ordinary on the surface, but the interior is antique, low-key and luxurious, giving people a clean and elegant feeling, which is completely different from the steel forest in the city.

The cheongsam beauties from a professional background play ancient Chinese musical instruments such as guzheng and pipa, creating an artistic conception of mountains and flowing water.

There are also cheongsam beauties squatting in front of the three of them, showing the traditional Chinese tea ceremony skills.

The three of them chatted over tea, first chatting about Mai Xiaoyu's trip to Cannes and the sensation caused by the movie "This Man from Earth" in Europe, and then talking about the exclusion of Chinese in Europe.

There are many anti-Chinese forces in Europe, and the scale is not small. In recent years, anti-dumping investigations have been carried out at every turn against products in a certain industry in China, and Chinese enterprises have suffered a lot of losses.

Unexpectedly, this time Mai Xiaoyu's cute film and television, with the help of the other party's anti-Chinese heart, took a big advantage. No matter what the box office of the movie is released in the future, it feels quite relieved.

After drinking tea and looking at the time, it's time for dinner.

The celebratory dinner was held in the same room as the clubhouse.

One after another beautifully made, colorful, fragrant and delicious meals were served, and three young, beautiful and temperamental cheongsam beauties were selected from the club to accompany them, enlivening the atmosphere of the wine table, and the meal was very happy.

During the dinner, the three of them talked about the development status of Blue Sky Real Estate.

This real estate company was established by a joint investment of three parties, and its current development is not bad.

Through bank loan financing, taking advantage of the loopholes in the land market and the relationship between Li Qiang and Zhu Zeyuan, he won several pieces of land in his hands.

The first project, Blue Sky Garden Villas, has been sold out and is now focusing on a high-end apartment development near Wudaokou, taking advantage of the unique cultural atmosphere and the abundance of well-known universities to target the fashionable and wealthy young and white-collar elite.

Li Qiang and Zhu Zeyuan are very optimistic about this project, Sunshine Real Estate also has a project in Wudaokou, and it started construction before Blue Sky Real Estate, and it is expected that the completion time will be earlier than Blue Sky Real Estate.

This is a good thing, and it can create a scale effect.

Mai Xiaoyu accepted the toast of the beauty, ate two bites of food after drinking, and said: "I have an idea, these two real estate projects may be better if they are renamed." ”

The words fell, and the atmosphere at the wine table suddenly froze.

In the development and operation of Blue Sky Real Estate, Meng Ren never interferes, but only enjoys year-end dividends. The only thing Mai Xiaoyu does is to hire a specialized accounting firm that Comrade Lao Mai is familiar with to audit after getting the company's year-end financial report every year.

This time suddenly proposed to change the name of the real estate, Zhu Zeyuan and Li Qiang couldn't help but be stunned.

After a while, Li Qiang asked, "What do you think is the best name to change?"

"Your real estate, Love Apartment Phase I, and the other real estate is called Love Apartment Phase II, how about it?"

Love apartment?

The name fits the target group, but ......

"Why?" asked Zhu Zeyuan.

"Because our company may make an urban-themed sitcom this year and next, called "Love Apartment". ”

……

"Love Apartment"!

After Mai Xiaoyu saw Chen Chichi in "Wan Wan", he immediately thought of the sitcom in his dream.

There is no way, on Chen Chichi in the dream, the imprint of "Love Apartment" is too deep.

In addition, there are more newcomers under Mengren, and "Love Apartment" does not have particularly high requirements for actors' acting skills, and it has little impact if the acting is smashed, but it is popular...... The benefits drop greatly.

During his time in Cannes, in addition to perfecting his routines, Mai Xiaoyu spent the rest of his time thinking about "Love Apartment".

When to shoot, how to shoot, who will direct, who the lead actor is looking for, how to promote, which platform to broadcast, etc.

Even if "Love Apartment" in the strange dream can be called a divine drama, it was extremely popular after it was broadcast, and it encountered a series of problems. After the filming of the first one, almost no TV stations were interested in this kind of "somewhat non-mainstream" TV series, and in the end, they relied on the online broadcast platform and accidentally ...... Blaze!

The problems in the strange dream are instructive to reality, and if Meng Ren shoots this sitcom, I'm afraid that he will encounter similar problems.

But fortunately, with the back garden of Dolphin Satellite TV, coupled with the storm audio and video platform, it is not difficult to make a profit.

The seven protagonists in the play, Mai Xiaoyu also has a general idea in his heart, and the key is the director.

There are only two TV drama directors on the cute side, Li Hui and Sun Yaxing, which also leads to a low annual output of cute dramas. In the eyes of the outside world, it is slow work and meticulous work, so the cute drama department is wonderful.

Li Hui is now very famous, specializing in idol dramas, and is known as a great director of idol dramas, and it is impossible to shoot sitcoms;

"Flight Attendant" is finished, and "Durala" is waiting for him.

Only when "Durala" is completed will Sun Yaxing have time to direct "Love Apartment", and at that time, it will be the end of this year at the earliest.

Mai Xiaoyu can afford to wait.

A movie is popular, and the income far exceeds the TV series, and this year's focus of his work is on movies. The bait of "This Man is from Earth" is thrown out, and the picture is not only for the global box office.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the celebration banquet ended.

Mai Xiaoyu always felt that Zhu Zeyuan had something to say, as if he wanted to find something out of his mouth, and it was in the clouds.

He didn't care, and asked Ke Haoyi to drive back to the Four Seasons Qingqiao Mai Family Villa with a drunken attitude.

When he left the airport in the afternoon, on the way to be picked up by Zhu Zeyuan, he specially contacted Liu Xiaoli and said that he had something to discuss when he went home tonight.

He has been thinking about Wang Baoqiang's car accident.

Wang Baoqiang suffered a car accident outside the film and television city, was it an accident or man-made?

This is a very important question that must be clarified.

Ning Shirong had human life on his hands, and he had to guard against Ya's dog jumping off the wall in a hurry!

However, Liu Xiaoli's words made him very entangled.

After the crash, the driver did not flee the scene. After the police arrived at the scene, they were very cooperative, and when they arrived at the traffic police team, they didn't ask much, and they explained clearly like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

The driver who caused the accident is 26 years old this year, has a very virtuous wife, and a pair of cute babies, and his parents, who are over half a hundred years old, will also rely on him to support them in the future.

But when I went to the hospital for a physical examination this year, I was found to be terminally ill and died in the late stage.

In order not to drag down his family, in order to ensure the life of his family after his death, he deliberately bought a large amount of insurance, the beneficiaries were his parents and his wife, and then prepared to commit suicide.

There is no insurance for suicide, so the only way to cheat is to create a car accident.

In order to attract the attention of public opinion and ensure that the insurance company compensates in full, he stayed outside the film and television city and prepared to hit the star.

He didn't target Wang Baoqiang, it was just a coincidence, and the chance for the latter to appear was too good......

His crimes should be punished, and his feelings are pitiful.

After the local police disclosed the truth of the car accident, it immediately attracted a large number of media reports, which also aroused the sighs and sympathy of many netizens, and some people donated money for treatment.

Wang Baoqiang forgave the other party on Weibo and donated 50,000 yuan to him to fight the terminal illness; while the driver who caused the accident wept bitterly and admitted his mistake in public and sincerely apologized to Wang Baoqiang; in view of the fact that he had obtained the victim's forgiveness and did not cause serious consequences, the local police took into account his own situation, criticized and educated him, and then released him.

Is there any positive energy?

Warm and touching?

Is there true love in the world?

After listening to Liu Xiaoli and Comrade Lao Mai's narration, Mai Xiaoyu, who was full of alcohol, rubbed his forehead: "Dad, Aunt Liu, is this too coincidental?"

"You're thinking too much. Insurance fraud cases are very common, and I have been exposed to several cases of terminally ill patients defrauding insurance for their families. Comrade Lao Mai expressed his professional opinions.

Liu Xiaoli also said, "I agree with your father's opinion. And the results of Longxing's investigation are similar to those of the police, which seems to be really a coincidence. Wheat, Baoqiang is not injured this time, just let this matter pass, don't think about it anymore.

Come back and have a good rest for a few days, and if you can't be idle, then help me share my worries. Something is wrong with the company, and I'm trying to figure it out. ”

"What's wrong?"

"Isn't Xiao Xi's "Wan Wan" ready to be broadcast on the Internet, it has been promoted for a long time, and as a result, it has attracted a lot of doubts, and he ......has fallen out with others."
