Chapter 217: The Team
Han Sanping is not the kind of layman leader, he started from the lowest lighting worker in the Ba Film Studio, all the way from the scene to the director, step by step to the present.
He is familiar with every aspect of the film industry and is a true insider.
This is the reason why he was transferred to Beijing Film Studio to be entrusted with important tasks, and it is a major disadvantage of state-owned enterprises for laymen to lead insiders, and Beijing Film Studio needs a bold insider to lead if it wants to get rid of the burden of the past and develop and revitalize.
Each circle has its own rules.
In the film industry in China, the director is the core of the crew, and the members of the crew must obey the director's arrangement and cooperate with the director's work, which is the rule of the film industry.
Jiang Wen's filming of "Sunny Days" was hit by the crew, and that was because he didn't pay his salary.
Han Sanping has been a director, and he understands that the director needs to maintain his authority in the crew.
There is a saying in the circle that a director who does not scold is not a good director.
This is a bit biased, in fact, there are many good-natured directors, but this shows the status of directors on the set.
When filming, the director scolds you to listen, don't feel how great you are, you can communicate privately if you have something, and it is a taboo in the circle to collide with the director on the spot, who will dare to use you in the future.
Han Sanping knew that this matter was done poorly by the people of Beijing Film Studio, and the rules were broken.
These people relied on their background in Beijing Film Studio, and they didn't take Feng Xiaogang in their eyes, if they changed to a director of Beijing Film Studio, they wouldn't dare to do this, in the final analysis, they were still bullying.
What Han Sanping didn't expect was that Lin Zixuan said that if he was replaced, he would be replaced, and he was simply sharp.
Beijing Film Studio will not fall out with Lin Zixuan because of a few people, they are not so domineering.
Especially in the current predicament, the factory lacks funds, many films cannot be filmed, and at the same time, the workers in the factory cannot be idle, and they must always arrange things for them to do, otherwise these people will make trouble again.
Han Sanping came to Beijing Film Studio for less than three months, and basically figured out the situation of the factory, but he only felt anxious and had a difficult road ahead.
Of course, if it weren't for such a difficult job, it would not be his turn to be the deputy factory director.
This conflict with the Good Dream Company was just a trivial matter, and he had more things to deal with, so he didn't take this matter to heart.
Lin Zixuan hung up the phone, and he didn't think about it anymore, he wanted to arrange for people from the art center to enter Feng Xiaogang's crew.
The selection criterion is, of course, acquaintances first, especially the group of people who followed him to the United States to shoot "Beijing People in New York", they lived and ate together in the United States for half a year, and they knew each other's personalities and specialties very well, and they cooperated tacitly.
In recent years, the benefits of the Beijing Television Art Center have been very good, and it has been growing, and now has a scale of nearly 200 people.
During the construction of the Huairou Film and Television Base, Li Hong found a place near the film and television base to build a three-story office building, and the art center moved out of the original rented Sijiqing Commune.
The film and television base is currently in use, and the TV series of the art center are filmed there.
It's just that because Huairou belongs to the suburbs of Beijing and its location is a little off, other crews in the film and television industry are not very willing to go over, and how to promote and publicize it is a problem faced by the film and television base.
However, these are not under Lin Zixuan's control, so naturally others are worried.
It's easy to pull people from the art center, Feng Xiaogang wrote a list, all of them are people who are familiar with him, and they can rest assured.
After Li Hong's approval, this group of people will work in the crew of "Party A and Party B", although they have never made movies, they have all learned professional knowledge in this area, and they should be able to get started quickly.
"This is down, let's do things by ourselves, and the progress can be much faster." Feng Xiaogang said with confidence.
"You have to worry more about it, don't let the two gangs have a conflict." Lin Zixuan reminded.
Now half of the crew is from Beijing Film Studio, and half is from the Art Center, and if you don't get it right, something will happen.
"Don't worry, I'll explain it to them, our people are shrewd, if you want to steal the master, you have to have a good relationship with the people of the Beijing Film Studio, and when you learn it, you won't need them, this is called a church apprentice, starving the master." Feng Xiaogang said with a smile.
"We must also unite all the forces that can be united, meet those who do things seriously, take the initiative to take refuge, and those who can be won over, and there will never be too many talents." Lin Zixuan said foresightedly.
"Lin Dong Yingming!" Feng Xiaogang gave up his hand and pretended to admire.
"Mr. Feng is wise!" Lin Zixuan answered.
"Each other, each other." The two said with a smile at the same time.
They praised each other, and felt that it was almost over, so it was time to do something, mainly because the atmosphere was not enough, if Ge You was added, the three of them would be able to talk for an hour.
In Cannes, France, Ge You reads a magazine in the hotel.
This is a French film magazine that has foreign journalists' comments on the films participating in the Cannes Film Festival, and also gives a score to the films, and the higher the score, the more popular the film.
The magazine was brought by the investors of "Alive", and it is said that "Alive" scored very well after the screening, and the investors were very excited.
Ge You can't read foreign languages, so he just flips through them when he's fine.
He doesn't like to go out to enjoy the sun and sand of Cannes, and he doesn't go to see the excellent films from all over the world that are shown every day, including the works of film masters, mainly because he can't understand them, and he doesn't even have a translation subtitle and dubbing.
That is, when "Alive" was screened, he watched it again in the theater with investors.
Gong Li is different, the film festival is a show for female stars.
She wouldn't stay in a hotel, either to have dinner with investors and to find a filmmaker, or to attend some screenings, promote the film, and say a few beautiful words.
To maintain exposure in foreign media, this is the basic condition for becoming an international movie star.
This made Ge You feel very guilty.
I didn't help myself in Cannes, I had a hard time chatting with people, I was afraid of getting lost, and I didn't want to trouble others, everyone else was very busy, so it was better to stay in the hotel, at least not to cause trouble.
He still remembers one thing, which is the documentary called "The Wind in the Capital is Strong".
Naturally, this documentary can't be compared with "Alive", the films in the main competition unit are the focus of reporters' pursuit, and only a small number of people will pay attention to the "one kind of attention" unit.
Ge You searched through the magazines and found no content about the documentary.
Although he can't read the text, he can understand the pictures, if this documentary is very popular, there should be a photo of Lin Xiaoling in the report, after all, Xiaoling is the starring role.
It seems that there is no play.
In fact, the documentary circulated in a small circle of the festival and was considered a film of the new era of China.
In the past, foreign filmmakers saw Chinese films that were either old or reflected in remote rural areas, but in China this practice was criticized as "shooting the dark side to cater to foreign judges".
This documentary is different in that it is filmed in the current country, not in the countryside, but in the capital of China.
It shows the true face of the capital of China in 1993, allowing foreigners to see a changing country. (To be continued.) )
