At dinner, Lin Zixuan gave a general account of the situation at the Venice Film Festival. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

He was always busy in Venice, either negotiating prices with filmmakers or meeting with filmmakers, and only after the awards did he really relax.

A few people spent the day touring the local places of interest and taking some photos.

"I won the award this time, and the next thing is to release it in China. Lin Zixuan asked, "Do you think it will have any impact on letting them on your show for promotion?

After all, this film is about the story of the seventies, and it is not appropriate to talk about it on TV.

"The news in Taiwan mentioned that Xia Yu won the award, but there was not much movement. Mu Shanshan responded, "You also know that everyone is very cautious, even if they are on the show, they can't talk about it in depth." ”

"Forget it, don't get in trouble. Lin Zixuan decided.

"I guess there will be problems when it is released in China, you have to be mentally prepared. Mu Shanshan reminded.

This is true, don't look at the media reports very happily, they are all outsiders making a fool of themselves.

Although entertainment reporters think that they are a member of the film and television industry, people in the film and television industry never regard them as their own, but just a group of people who are attached to the film and television industry to eat.

The film and television industry needs reporters to help publicize it, but they don't value reporters very much in their hearts, and they will have a rejection mentality.

When the reporters saw that "Sunny Days" won the award, they had material to write about, and they were vigorously sought after, and it seemed that the future was bright.

In fact, this film will also face other problems, even if a film has obtained a film screening license, it may not be able to be screened in theaters, which depends on how the unit in charge of the theater line arranges.

This unit is called Huaguo Film Distribution and Projection Company, referred to as Huaying Company, and the general manager is Wu Mengshen.

Founded in 1951, the main responsibility of China Film Company is to distribute and manage all kinds of films released in China, and arrange the printing, supply and scheduling of film copies.

It is also responsible for formulating various indicators for the annual plan for the distribution and screening of films nationwide, and balancing the rental and ticket prices of films across the country.

In other words, the screening institutions and theater chains across the country are under its control.

Whether a movie should be released or not, when it will be released, and how many days it will be released, this company has the final say.

Take "Sunny Days" as an example, Lin Zixuan submitted the application for release, which may be scheduled for release this year or next year, which is uncertain.

Huaying Company can prevaricate the past with a casual reason, especially a film with a sensitive subject matter like this.

Even if it is released, it will be released for one week, and it will be released for three months, and the standards are in the hands of Huaying.

From this, you can see how much power they have, if a movie wants to get a good schedule, be released in more theaters, and extend the release time, you have to get their consent.

In the past, Lin Zixuan didn't need to have a relationship with them, and he would have to deal with them often in the future.

Not to mention "Sunny Days", if "Party A and Party B" wants to get a good box office, it must strive to be released at the same time in major cities across the country to attract more audiences.

"I know that the last time I met Manager Wu at the General Bureau, he was quite a strong person. Lin Zixuan commented.

Wu Mengshen is a southerner, in his forties, originally the deputy director of the Shanghai Film Bureau, and just transferred to the capital this year to serve as the general manager of Huaying Company.

The proposal to introduce foreign blockbusters through account sharing was put forward by him.

This person can be said to be the man of the year in the Chinese film industry in this era, even if Han Sanping meets him, he has to be polite.

"If you really can't do it, don't force it, it's not good to make contradictions, we still have to do it in this industry." Mu Shanshan persuaded him.

"Let's go through the normal process first, and then talk about problems when we encounter them. Lin Zixuan nodded.

This is the truth, if a private film company offends Huaying, it can basically close its doors.

"By the way, Xiaoling's matter is settled. Mu Shanshan mentioned, "The family is okay at the moment, it has not been affected much, the two children have already gone to school, and it is not as serious as you think." ”

Lin Xiaoling's short film "Sister" sparked heated discussions after it was broadcast, and now that a month has passed, the discussion has gradually subsided.

At first, it did have an impact on the police family, and anyone in an ordinary family would feel pressure to see the criticism in the newspaper, and even the leaders of their unit talked to them to make the couple pay attention to the education of their children.

There are also discussions from colleagues in the unit and neighbors around them, which are all invisible pressures.

Huaguo TV's "Living Space" column team contacted them to ensure that the short film would not be broadcast in the future.

Huaguo TV is a very strong unit, and for ordinary people, it is a behemoth, not to mention that they agreed to shoot before, and they can only accept this matter silently.

They just hope that things will pass quickly and the family can return to normal life.

Ordinary people are always in a vulnerable position in the face of the media, but fortunately, the media will not always pay attention to them, and now that their children can go to school, after this incident, they no longer want to be involved with TV stations.

"Fortunately, the information is not spreading smoothly now, that is, it is discussed, and it comes and goes quickly. Lin Zixuan rejoiced, "If the computer can be connected to the Internet, it will be terrible." ”

"You're talking about the information superhighway proposed by foreign countries, right? It's still early in our country. Mu Shanshan shook her head and said.

She works at a television station and knows about this.

This plan was proposed by the United States in 92 to allow all Americans to share resources through computers, so the information superhighway has become a hot topic around the world.

"You wait, society is developing very quickly. Lin Zixuan asserted.

"I heard the director of the "Living Space" column group say that he wanted to send "Sister" to participate in a documentary award, saying that this year is the first time, this short film is very promising, and Xiaoling is going to be famous again. Mu Shanshan said with a smile.

In 1994, in order to promote the development of domestic documentaries, the TV Documentary Academic Committee of the Huaguo Television Artists Association decided to select the "Huaguo TV Documentary Academic Award" once a year in the future.

This is the highest professional award in the Chinese documentary industry, and this year is the first one.

Because "Sister" has caused a lot of social repercussions, Huaguo TV decided to send it to the Documentary Academic Committee to participate in the awards.

"Being famous too early is not necessarily a good thing for her. Lin Zixuan said worriedly.

He knows this very well.

Lin Zixuan became famous when he wrote "The Stubborn Master", but it was infamy, that is, he had a good mentality and didn't care, and becoming famous meant that he would receive attention and criticism, and he was under pressure from all sides.

The two chatted, finished eating, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, washed up, and walked into the bedroom. (To be continued.) )
