Chapter 193: Shock
Chapter 193: Shocked
Feng Xiaogang is worthy of being one of the most famous directors in the mainland of China in Fang Mingyuan's previous life, and after the initial shock, he quickly regained his calm, and his communication with Cameron and Gower also changed back to neither humble nor arrogant.
"Your script was rejected by the Film Bureau?" Fang Mingyuan said in surprise, "Which one?"
"Living an Embarrassing Life" said that it was 'the script was too **, chasing ...... Exposing the ugly without lashing out at the ugly violates the values of socially recognized moral standards and misguides the public's aesthetic tastes......" Feng Xiaogang has not fully sobered up from Fang Cai's shock now, and he has not heard the strangeness in Fang Mingyuan's question.
Fang Mingyuan suddenly realized that although he had not read the script of "Living an Embarrassing Life" in his previous life, he had read "A Sigh" later adapted from "Living an Embarrassing Life". It is natural to be able to guess from this that the general content of the script of "Living an Embarrassing Life" can be guessed.
In the mid-90s, whether it was film, television, or literary and artistic works, extramarital affairs were still a rather sensitive subject, and people could not accept that divorce was also a kind of freedom in people's married life, and the third party was not completely synonymous with "fox spirit" and ill intentions. In this era, divorce and a third party, this is to be condemned by public opinion. Unlike in the next century, officials can use MBA theory to manage their harem groups, and even several wives can actually get marriage certificates, which is no surprise to people.
"Director Feng, in my opinion, you don't have to be so frustrated, although the Film Bureau has denied your script now, but in a few years, it may not be a problem. You can just put it aside and wait for three or five years before applying, and I don't think it's a problem. Fang Ming said from afar.
"It's okay in three or five years? How is it possible?" Feng Xiaogang said in disbelief. Who doesn't know that the strict review standards of the Huaxia Film Bureau are rare in the world, and all kinds of taboos, let alone insiders, can never be experienced. These screenwriters, writers, and directors are as difficult as dancing in shackles. Many creative subjects that are not a problem at all in Hong Kong abroad, and in China, they are untouchable forbidden films, television, and literary works, not for entertainment and enjoyment in leisure time, but to educate the public at all times, to guide the public, to follow the main theme at all times, to promote socialist thought, to ask this and that, but rarely ask what people want to hear and see.
And this, even in the first decade of the next century, has not fundamentally changed. Although, in some respects, the government has appropriately liberalized somewhat.
"Director Feng doesn't believe it, why don't we make a bet?" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile.
Cameron, who had been listening to the conversation between the two through Fang Bin's translator, suddenly interjected: "You'd better not bet with him, I'm sure you'll lose"
Feng Xiaogang glanced at Cameron in surprise, Cameron is a well-known director of Shijie, but he has never heard of any constructive views on the policies of the Huaxia government, how can he judge that in another three or five years, this part will be relaxed.
Cameron saw Feng Xiaogang's doubts, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know the national conditions of your country, but I believe in Fang"
Feng Xiaogang nodded at this time, I see. It turned out that Cameron was the other party, and Mingyuan was confident. It's interesting that a well-known director of Shijie would trust a young man's judgment...... If you say this, I'm afraid it will make many people's jaws drop.
However, a thought suddenly flashed in Feng Xiaogang's mind, and this thought was like a thunderbolt from the sky, which shocked his mind and made him feel confused
"But I believe Fang" Cameron's words were still lingering, Feng Xiaogang suddenly thought that in recent years, the mysterious screenwriter who was known as the golden partner in the film industry along with Cameron, his signature was not also "Fang"? And looking at the atmosphere of the conversation between Cameron and Fang Mingyuan, the relationship between the two is obviously very equal, and when Fang Mingyuan introduced himself to Cameron and Gower, it seems that he did not ask for the opinions of the two
It was Fang Bin, who was a little polite when talking to Cameron and Gower
Although the change in Feng Xiaogang's face was not big, it was still noticed by Fang Mingyuan and Cameron.
"Mr. Fang, are you ......" Feng Xiaogang said with the excitement in his heart.
"Director Feng, let me introduce myself, I am Fang Mingyuan, many people call me 'Fang', Fang Bin is my uncle, James and Ms. Gower's Emerald Bird Film Group Company has had several successful cooperation with me in the past few years. Fang Mingyuan said with a smile.
"You are the screenwriter 'Fang'?" Feng Xiaogang couldn't help but exclaim. Although it was already expected, but at the moment when it was confirmed, Feng Xiaogang still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart. This mysterious screenwriter "Fang", in the film and television industry of Shijie, has been a topic that people have been talking about in recent years. His scripts for Hong Kong Film Company and Emerald Bird Films Group of Companies were box office hits.
In particular, the films he collaborated with Cameron may not all be considered masterpieces in the history of Shijie films, but they are all big winners at the box office that year, sweeping hundreds of millions of dollars in box office revenue from the Shijie film market.
People have speculated about where this mysterious party is sacred. Some say he's American or European, and it's probably the new pen name of a well-known screenwriter or author, otherwise how could Hollywood's famous director Cameron and Emerald Bird Pictures Inc. choose the work of an obscure man.
It's not that no one has guessed that the mysterious "Fang" may be an Oriental, a famous screenwriter in Hong Kong, because the Kumho Film Group has its roots in Hong Kong, and in the cooperation between Kumho Film Group and many local film companies in Hong Kong, there are also a large number of films with screenwriters and signatures "Fang", and these two people should obviously be the same, otherwise Kumho Film Group itself would not have been able to tolerate this kind of thing -- 'Fang) It is undoubtedly the most valuable talent of Kumho Film Group at present, and it can be said that the reason why Kumho Film Group has been able to achieve such a status today is inseparable from the existence of "Fang".
People guessed and guessed, but no one thought that this mysterious screenwriter, who has attracted much attention from all sides, is actually a young man who looks no more than twenty years old
