Zhao Wei finished the press conference in the morning and left in the afternoon. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Before leaving, he called Wang Dalun, saying that he had made himself very miserable at the press conference and looked very pitiful. The apology was very sincere, and he stood up several times to point at the lens of the camera and apologized to the people of the whole country, and also analyzed his own shortcomings in historical knowledge very profoundly, and said that he would strengthen his study in the future and strive to be an actor with both virtue and art.

Of course, she is not stupid, although she did not name names, but she still vaguely pointed out the cattiness of the magazine, leaving enough room for the reporters present to think.

After the press conference, in her words, she did everything she could, as for what things would ferment into later, she could only resign herself to fate, rather than being chased by reporters everywhere here, it was better to go back to the new. Jiang continues to film.

Sure enough, the evening newspaper of the day, the entertainment news of Beijing TV, and the newspaper of the next day all reported on the press conference. The attitude of the media has changed a lot compared with before, and most of them affirmed Zhao Wei's apology, and at the same time pointed the finger at the magazine. But there are still a small number of people who are still chasing and beating Zhao Wei, of course, the catty in this is self-evident.

The Internet is basically divided into two groups, one group is like most media, pointing the finger at the magazine, but the other group is instigated by the water army, and it has intensified its attack on Zhao Wei.

Although this result is not ideal, compared with the previous condemnation of the whole country, the situation has improved significantly, and the idea that Wang Dalun gave her is considered a success, of course, it is inseparable from Zhao Wei's "acting skills".

In fact, this kind of apology can't be said to be a fraud by Zhao Wei, after all, as a public figure, he wore the wrong clothes and was criticized, he definitely deserved it, and he apologized as a must, and strengthening his study was also to be able to grow more eyes in the future and give others less opportunities to stumble. But at the same time, in order to calm the public's anger, proper performances are also a must. Even if it is the bold words of those officially recognized "artists with both virtue and art" in front of the camera, do you dare to say that he is not a performance?

Under strong pressure from public opinion, the magazine had to apologize to the public the next day. Two days later, the relevant departments also intervened at this time and interviewed the person in charge of the magazine.

I don't know if it was because of the pressure of the relevant departments, or because of the lack of guilt, the day after the person in charge of the magazine was interviewed by the relevant departments, the planner in charge of this column, that is, the woman surnamed Zhou who dug a pit for Zhao Wei, was forced to take the blame and resign.

As the dog-headed military advisor who helped Zhao Wei tide over the crisis this time, Wang Dalun naturally brushed off his clothes and hid his name deeply. continued to shoot "Manhole Cover" step by step, and the filming process was very smooth, and he calculated that it would basically be completed by the middle of this month.

He calculated, counting the "Seafood" he filmed at the beginning of the year, he made four movies plus a TV series this year, which is the hardest and most prolific year since he filmed. Even if you don't count "Seafood", the total salary income has exceeded 800,000 yuan. It's time to take a break, and then accompany your girlfriend to Hong Kong for a trip and shopping, isn't it beautiful!

"I'm a poor student, and I don't really have much money."

These were the first words Li Yang and Liu Qingbang said when they met for the first time in a tavern.

At that time, he had just returned from Germany, and he really didn't have much savings.

From 1985 to 1987, he studied as a director of the Television Department of Beijing Radio Institute. From 1988 to 1990, he studied art history at the Free University of West Berlin. From 1990 to 1992, he studied at the Faculty of Drama at the University of Munich. From 1992 to 1995, he studied at the Film and Television Directing Department of the Academy of Film and Television Media Arts in Cologne, obtained a master's degree in audiovisual media, almost became a professional student, and made three documentaries on German television.

He asked someone to do everything possible to ask Liu Qingbang out and talk about his feelings and plans. Liu Qingbang was finally moved by his sincerity and perseverance, and in Liu Qingbang's words: "How many intellectuals are still taking responsibility? It's too little, and it's not easy for Li Yang. ”

So he handed over the adaptation rights and film rights of his novel to him.

In order to adapt the script, Li Yang went to live in coal mines in Ningxia and Henan, and the mine owner thought he was a reporter and took out a gun to face him.

The miners described the disaster as "a piece of flesh sandwiched between two stones." "They are very indifferent to their fate, life is like this, they need money for food, money for their children to go to school, and there is no other way to live. Dead, dead.

This life shook him, and he vowed to make a movie.

"I don't have any money, and almost all of the money I use to make movies is borrowed."

This is what Li Yang and assistant director Bao Zhenjiang said when they met, and at the same time presented the script he had just adapted.

After reading the script, Bao Zhenjiang was both shocked and moved, in his words: "In the film industry, almost no one makes movies with their own money, only Li Yang!" Then what else is there to say, it's such a good book, there is no money without money, let's talk about it after shooting. ”

Then Li Yang used the same way to fool another ideal person in the circle - photographer Liu Yonghong, who had just become famous with "Seafood". He had seen "Seafood" in Germany, and he admired the almost condensed scenes in "Seafood" very much, watching everything calmly and cruelly.

Right now, Li Yang is thinking about whether to use the same reason to fool an actor. Now he, Bao Zhenjiang, and Liu Yonghong are forming a grass stage team and selecting actors.

From the very beginning, there were two criteria for choosing actors, suitable and cheap, but at the moment their economic situation seems to be cheaper and more important.

The script he adapted has three important characters, two murderers and a minor worker. The role of a murderer has been determined, Li Yang's hometown, Wang Shuangbao, an actor from Peking Opera martial arts, was recommended by Bao Zhenjiang, when Li Yang finished watching the domestic hit documentary TV series "12.1 Shooting Case" two years ago, he couldn't help but applaud Dong Lei, the number one villain played by Wang Shuangbao in the play, vicious, vicious, and murderous without blinking, which is very in line with the character of Tang Chaoyang in his current script.

What's more, Wang Shuangbao, who changed careers in middle age and just started to emerge, is very cheap, and the salary is completely in line with his expectations.

The actor of the underage migrant worker Yuan Fengming has also been determined, a student from Henan Art School. Li Yang has watched the child's performance, because he is an art school student, and his performance foundation is good, and his standard Henan dialect is very in line with the character in the script.

Now the only thing left is the role of another murderer with a clear conscience who plays the heaviest role, which has not yet been finalized. It's not that there are no candidates, Bao Zhenjiang recommended an actor who graduated from a film school, and he has run a lot of tricks, Li Yang has seen the video of the role he played, I have to say that this actor's acting skills are still good, maybe limited by appearance conditions or no suitable opportunities, he is not famous, and the salary is also very low, but it is very in line with the criteria for selecting actors in their grass stage team.

But the problem lies in the candidate recommended by Liu Yonghong, this person's acting skills are simply amazing for Li Yang, and he has also played many villains, especially the killer Luo Yang in "The True Colors of the Criminal Police", who can play with Wang Zhiwen and Li Youbin without falling behind, is also conscience-free, and is the same as Song Jinming, Tang Chaoyang's accomplice in his script.

If given a choice, he would not hesitate to choose this actor. But now he has just been crowned the champion of Nantes on three continents with "Seafood", and he was touted by the media two days ago as the leader of the new generation of domestic actors.

Such an actor's salary is absolutely sky-high for Li Yang, if Li Yang could grit his teeth and try it reluctantly before he won the actor, now according to the latest movie salary price quoted by his agency, Li Yang may not even have the courage to meet him.

"Actually, Da Lun is a good person, as long as the book is good, he will definitely act. I suggest you sit with him and have a good talk. Liu Yonghong said to Li Yang.

Liu Yonghong, if you use the official common words to describe it, is a photographer with ideals, pursuits, and dreams for the film career. The reason why he joined Li Yang's grass stage team, in addition to Li Yang's flickering, the most important thing is that he likes this script, just like he liked Zhu Wen's "Seafood" script at the beginning.

It is precisely because he likes this book that he, like Li Yang and Bao Zhenjiang, wants to make this movie well. So in his opinion, only Wang Dalun can support the role of Song Jinming, not to save money.

"I know, I know."

Li Yang's face was full of bitterness, and he spread his hands and said: "But we don't have money, so we can't afford to hire him at all." ”

Then he asked rhetorically: "Do you know what the price of Xinbaoyuan Company is now?" ”

"How much?"

Li Yang gestured to a six, exaggerating: "600,000!" It's almost two-thirds of our total production cost, how do you say to invite him? ”

Liu Yonghong was not surprised by this price, he had just graduated from the Photography Department of the Film Academy with a master's degree when he filmed "Seafood", and the honorarium offered by Zhu Wen when he invited him was only 5,000 yuan, but when "Seafood" was shortlisted for Cannes, his worth immediately rose, and then he made three films with the main theme theme, and the remuneration started at 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. This time, he joined Li Yang's grass platform team, and only received a friendship price, which cost more than 10,000 yuan. What's more, Wang Dalun won the actor of the three continents in Nantes, so he naturally deserves such a high salary.

"Why don't you learn the pattern of vermilion?" Liu Yonghong also knew Li Yang's difficulties, and hesitated.

"What mode?"

"Well, Zhu Wen didn't have any money when he was filming "Seafood", and when he asked Da Lun to shoot it, he didn't mention the salary at all, and he wanted to ask him to help attract investment. Of course, they had a good relationship before. But I think the most important thing is that the book of "Seafood" is good, otherwise no matter how good a friend is, it will not be possible to help like this. So I think we can actually adopt this model, not talking about salary, talking about ......"

Before Liu Yonghong's words were finished, Li Yang immediately continued: "Talk about box office sharing!" ”

Liu Yonghong nodded a little embarrassedly, in fact, he shouldn't say this, after all, only Li Yang is the boss in this play. Although the word box office sharing is rare in China, it is quite popular abroad, and many producers use the form of box office sharing to attract big stars to join because of insufficient investment, and he doesn't believe that Li Yang, who has been in Germany for more than ten years, will not think of this method.

However, it is not uncommon for the domestic box office to share this year. For example, Feng Xiaogang, his cooperation model with Huayi is box office sharing, but he makes a Chinese New Year film, a commercial film, and his previous experience is that all departments have box office guarantees, and all departments make money, so he has this confidence, and the income of each film is much higher than just counting the salary.

Director Zhang Da, who is also good at art films, does not have this confidence, his filming is calculated according to the director's salary, regardless of whether the box office is high or low, he charges a fixed director's salary. Of course, his salary as a director is absolutely sky-high in China, and only big productions can afford him.

As for Li Yang, as Liu Yonghong thought, he didn't think of the method of dividing the box office into cities, but his investment is not big after all, only about one million in total, and Wang Dalun's salary is as high as 600,000, if calculated according to the proportion of investment, he will almost account for more than 30%.

Although Liu Qingbang praised Li Yang with social responsibility, he invested all his net worth and was still in debt for it, not only to expose the dark side of society and assume the so-called social responsibility, but more importantly, he wanted to do this, not only to realize his ideals, but also to gain fame and fortune from it.

Of course, this is also human nature. No one said that he would sacrifice everything for his ideals, even at the expense of dragging his friends who helped him into the water, which is by no means noble but selfish. While realizing one's own ideals, taking into account the interests of society and the interests of individuals is the truly valuable ideal.

Therefore, it is not enough to have feelings and social responsibility for the ideal without income, or it will not last long, unless you have a lot of money and have nowhere to spend. Otherwise, Fang Li would not have publicly begged for the film schedule on the Internet for "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix".

Li Yang is a very smart person, and from the very beginning, he didn't expect a book with this kind of theme to pass the review of the relevant parties. After all, he had also been in the system for a while before going abroad.

More than a decade of living abroad, especially in Berlin. He has witnessed the scenery of so many domestic films at the Berlin Film Festival. And this period of time is precisely the period when the so-called sixth generation of directors represented by Zhang Yuan, Lou Ye, and Jia Zhangke became famous at major foreign film festivals with the so-called underground films they shot and were popular.

In fact, most foreigners of that era had an impression of China that was based on the concepts of closedness, poverty, backwardness, and autocracy. To use an inappropriate analogy, it is similar to the psychology of the great gold country in the north now.

And the underground films of the sixth generation of directors just show these foreigners the real living conditions and social ecology of China in this era, more precisely, the lowest level of Chinese society in this era.

To use an inappropriate analogy, these underground films were the image propaganda films of China at that time.

Of course, this kind of real display can also be interpreted one-sidedly as using China's ignorance, poverty, backwardness, and even petty theft to please foreigners, and even rise to the level of attacking the social system and smearing the ruling party. But I have to admit that most of what these underground movies show is real. It's just that our country and its people love face more.

If you think about it empathically, if the Dajin Kingdom in the north also makes such an underground movie, I believe that not only those yellow-haired and green-eyed foreigners, but even we will pursue it to satisfy our curiosity.

In fact, in the final analysis, this situation is all about poverty, more than ten years later, when China really develops and becomes the second largest economy, and the whole world is rumored that China is rich, will there still be a market for this kind of movie? And how many directors of the sixth generation who are surging in a certain era are left?

It seems to be far away again, back to business.

Li Yang just saw this kind of bloody reflection on the dark side of society, and once the film that reflects the ugly theme of human nature is made, there will definitely be a market abroad. If you're lucky, you can be as upset as "Xiao Wu" and "Seafood", and be shortlisted for the three major festivals in Europe.

According to Li Yang's current adaptation of the book, Song Jinming is definitely the soul of the play, and if he can invite a big coffee like Wang Dalun, he must be more sure to make this movie well, and Wang Dalun is now a familiar face in Europe, and the promotion of the film in the future will definitely attract more attention.

But more than 30% of the revenue share, which has to make Li Yang think carefully. After all, if you use another actor recommended by Bao Zhenjiang, it is enough to pay a salary of tens of thousands of yuan, and the actor's acting skills are still good.

There are really not many mainland actors who can be familiar with each other in Europe these years, and the only women are probably Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi, and Zhou Xun seems to be almost; In addition to Jiang Wen, there is only Wang Dalun who wrenches his fingers and counts.

As for the two actors who have won the best actor in the three major festivals, Uncle Ge has disappeared from major film festivals since "Alive", and Xia Yu is now about to become a TV café.

Li Yang's contradiction now is that the cost of using an unfamous actor is very low, and it will not affect his future income. With Wang Dalun, although the quality of the film is guaranteed, it will be easier to promote in the future, but the cost is high, and a large piece of meat will have to be dug out in the future.

There are pros and cons, it depends on whether he dares to make this bet!
