Chapter 593: Enlightenment Lesson
Liu Tao is a newcomer in the entertainment industry, she used to be a literary soldier in the Art Troupe of the Military Region, and later filmed several commercials, this is her first time starring in a TV series. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Foreign Daughter-in-law Local Lang" is a group drama, and she plays a supporting role.
After shaking hands, Lin Zixuan did not communicate with her, nor did he pay special attention.
If he showed a little enthusiasm, he didn't know what would happen, the atmosphere of the entertainment industry here in Huacheng was relatively open, and he knew it many years ago.
He didn't want to cause misunderstandings.
During the banquet, Chen Changle once again talked about his acquaintance with Lin Zixuan.
He has said this many times on different occasions.
As Lin Zixuan's fame grew and he appeared on the rich list, he mentioned Lin Zixuan more often.
The difference is that he will no longer mention that he led Lin Zixuan into the industry, but sighs how lucky he was to know Lin Zixuan in his early years, and how deep the friendship between the two was.
Lin Zixuan is not disgusted by this, and life is like this.
Most of the friends who met in Weimo are scattered, and some are estranged, not deliberately estranged, but it is difficult to find common topics.
There aren't many people who can walk together and still sit down and talk about the past.
Chen Changle may be interest-oriented and practical, but it is undeniable that they are friends and worth cherishing.
Lin Zixuan cooperated with the chat, talking about Huacheng in the early nineties, which was the stage of rapid development of Huacheng, walking in the forefront of the country, and there were countless opportunities.
Ordinary people are talking about investment and stocks, and a large number of outsiders pour into the flower city to pan for gold.
As long as you are bold and dare to take risks, you have the possibility of making a fortune.
However, in recent years, the development of Huacheng is obviously not as good as that of Shanghai, and in the new century, the economic center of gravity of China has shifted from the Pearl River Delta to the Yangtze River Delta.
Flower City is no longer so attractive, and even the entertainment industry is in trouble.
For example, in the 90s, people in the mainland used to listen to Cantonese songs and watch Hong Kong movies and television dramas, and the most popular in the video hall were Cantonese movies, and the cassette tapes of Cantonese songs were the bestsellers.
From time to time, a sentence or two of Cantonese pops out of the mouths of young people, and everyone thinks it is a trend.
As a city close to the Xiangjiang River, Huacheng has become the center of entertainment trends.
Nowadays, Cantonese songs are no longer mainstream, and the entertainment industry in the mainland is rapidly rising.
With the rapid development of the mainland economy, the self-confidence of the people has increased, which is a general trend.
From the attitude of everyone at the banquet, it can be detected that they yearn for the Beijing entertainment circle, and listen carefully to Lin Zixuan's anecdotes in the Beijing circle.
In February this year, Gong Li became the chairman of the jury of the Berlin Film Festival.
She is the first Chinese to serve as the chairman of the jury of the three major European film festivals, and it is interesting to note that Zhang Yimou's new film won the Grand Jury Prize at this year's Berlin Film Festival.
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Li Yu will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival.
Jiang Wen's new film entered the main competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival, but did not pass the review of the General Administration and entered the competition in violation of regulations.
Character determines fate!
Lin Zixuan felt that this sentence made sense, Jiang Wen's character was like this, he was not a person who obeyed the rules, he always wanted to break something, and he couldn't be the same as others.
These are the hottest topics in the film and television industry this year, and they are suitable for talking about at the wine table.
Lin Zixuan didn't talk about it in detail, but just said it roughly, for example, he and Feng Xiaogang went to persuade Jiang Wen, so there was no need to mention it, and it was not good for the reporter to know about it.
He only told a few innocuous stories.
Even so, it was an eye-opener for everyone present.
For example, at the Berlin and Cannes Film Festivals, the filming habits of Hollywood director Li Yan, and the daily anecdotes of Feng Xiaogang and Ge You are all aspects that they usually can't touch.
Listening to Lin Zixuan's eloquent talk, there was a sense of satisfaction in participating.
"Mr. Lin, is it true that the media said that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is going to participate in the Oscars?" Someone wondered.
"American film companies are operating, and director Li Yu has a certain influence in Hollywood, but the result is not easy to say, and Chinese films have no advantage in the Oscars." Lin Zixuan said conservatively.
Liu Tao, who was sitting in the corner, did not participate in the discussion, and on such occasions, she did not have many opportunities to speak.
She has just entered the showbiz and is still excited to get a supporting role in a hit TV series.
Tonight's dinner has broadened her horizons, and it is obvious that Lin Zixuan's showbiz is not at the same level as her showbiz.
As a newcomer, she is still very ignorant of this circle, and Lin Zixuan is equivalent to giving her an enlightenment lesson.
Liu Tao had the idea of going to the capital to develop, although it was hard to drift north, there would be many opportunities.
After eating, Lin Zixuan returned to the hotel.
Thinking of Liu Tao who he had just met, he had the idea of remaking "The Legend of the White Snake".
There are strict restrictions on film and television dramas involving ghosts and monsters in China, and the promotion of feudal superstition alone can be directly banned, and most film and television companies choose realism or historical themes.
However, the review of film and television dramas adapted from classic classics or ancient legends is relatively relaxed.
Seven or eight years have passed since the broadcast of "The Legend of the New White Lady", which was a drama funded and produced by the people of Baodao, and the investment of more than 10 million yuan at that time could be regarded as a big production.
However, during the filming, there were constant conflicts between the staff of Baodao and the mainland in the crew.
The cooperation between the two sides was not very pleasant, and in the later stage, the production company of Baodao refused to add mainland cast and crew to the end credits of the TV series, and various messy disputes arose.
This is the reason why Lin Zixuan is reluctant to cooperate with Hong Kong and Taiwan, who just want to make money in the mainland.
However, this is an open world, and win-win cooperation is the mainstream, and if he really wants to cooperate, he will only choose to cooperate with people who are inclined to the mainland.
This remake of "The Legend of the White Snake" will be completely produced by the mainland, with mainland actors and production teams.
Lin Zixuan will not talk to Liu Tao about this matter for the time being, he wants to go back to the capital to make preparations first.
Besides, there are other candidates to play Bai Suzhen in his mind, such as Yu Feihong,
Yu Feihong's ancient costume is suitable for Bai Suzhen's dignified atmosphere, the only problem is that after "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", she became an international movie star and her salary was too high.
If she starred in a TV series, she might have taken a quarter of the investment alone.
On 15 May, Chen Daoming, Yu Feihong and others came to Cannes, France.
Under the arrangement of Columbia Pictures, I met with the media, and tomorrow "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" will hold a test screening for film critics and media.
Although the film did not participate in the main competition unit of the film festival, under the promotion of Columbia Pictures, it became one of the most watched films at this Cannes Film Festival.
At the end of the interview, the leading actors stood on the beach in Cannes for reporters to take pictures.
In the background is a large poster of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and Yu Feihong and Xu Jinglei become the focus at this moment.
