Chapter 724: Wen Jun's Worries
Just when Lu Deshuang was talking to Xu Qiongshuang, there was a reception room in the headquarters building of Dessin Media. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
A middle-aged man with a small head, a round forehead, and some gray hair, with a worried look, walked around the reception room, causing the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa to be dissatisfied: "Wenjun, don't go, sit down and have a cup of tea!" "It's more than forty people, why are you so breathless.
That's right, this short man walking back and forth is none other than Wen Jun, the chairman of the Xiangjiang Film Awards, who just took office last year.
For Wen Jun, I believe everyone should be familiar with it.
It can be said that Wen Jun is one of the few directors in Xiangjiang who dared to shoot movies in the mainland in the early 90s.
The first movie "Sunny Days" directed by Jiang Wen was actually invested by Wen Jun, with a total of one million US dollars, which was definitely a huge amount of money in the mainland at that time, and Wen Jun also personally produced the film.
"Sunny Days" is not all smooth sailing, the biggest problem encountered by the crew is the shortage of funds, although there is a lot of investment in the early stage, but Jiang Wen strives for excellence in art, and the crew's funds are quickly exhausted.
In the face of this problem, in the end, Liu Xiaoqing and Wen Jun stood up, the former is responsible for the daily capital operation of the crew, and Wen Jun is responsible for the physical investment of film, machinery and equipment.
It can be said that if it hadn't been for Wen Jun's insistence at the beginning, "Sunny Days" probably wouldn't have won the Best Actor Award and been nominated for the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival, let alone let Jiang Wen become a god in one fell swoop because of this movie!
"Elder Wu, aren't I worried?"
is different from the current situation, after entering the new century, Xiangjiang films in the previous life have begun to decline, but the appearance of "Infernal Affairs" has indeed inspired Xiangjiang films, so Wen Jun did not encounter any trouble when he sat as chairman of the Xiangjiang Film Awards.
And in this life, because of Lu Deshuang's intervention and the troubles left by the previous Zhang Tongzu, Wen Jun faced all kinds of troubles as soon as he took office, especially "Infernal Affairs", which was regarded as a rescue work by Xiangjiang filmmakers, won 14 nominations and 6 awards.
But the mainland staff of the "Infernal Affairs" crew collectively refused to participate in the Xiangjiang Film Awards, and only a few Xiangjiang people in the "Infernal Affairs" crew participated, and even when they won the award, they were all others on stage instead of receiving the award, which made Wen Jun, who had just taken office at that time, look very unsightly, and complained about Zhang Tongzu in his heart.
However, Wen Jun is also atmospheric enough, and he did not fall out with Lu Deshuang because of this, and he sincerely found someone to deliver a message to Lu Deshuang to release the meaning of reconciliation.
It's a pity that Wen Jun chose the wrong time, because of Dong Xuan's accident at that time, Lu Deshuang, who was falling into self-blame, was drunk and dreaming all day long, how could he have the heart to pay attention to this kind of, which caused Wen Jun's first desire to reconcile with Lu Deshuang to be frustrated.
However, Wen Jun did not give up, and the second time he was no longer looking for someone to deliver the message, but directly asked someone to intercede.
This person is none other than Cheng Long, who has cooperated with Lu Deshuang.
Cheng Long is also obliged to do this thing, after all, Lu Deshuang's grievances with the Xiangjiang Academy Awards have something to do with him, because if Cheng Long hadn't been too busy back then, and handed over the position of acting chairman of the Xiangjiang Academy Awards to Zhang Tongzu, then there would be no such bad things now.
For Cheng Long, Lu Deshuang still respects him, not for anything else, just saying that Cheng Long's contribution to the export of Chinese culture is worthy of Lu Deshuang's warm reception of Cheng Long.
However, when he heard Cheng Long's intention, Lu Deshuang's face was not good.
Zhang Tongzu's behavior back then seemed to be his behavior alone, but everyone is not a fool, Zhang Tongzu can easily get rid of the nomination of Lu Deshuang's works, you can guess that other people in the Academy Awards Organizing Committee at that time also supported it, otherwise, how could Zhang Tongzu have such a big right?
However, for the sake of Cheng Long's face, Lu Deshuang did not directly refuse, but asked Zhang Tongzu to appear on the show, solemnly apologize to himself, and asked the Academy Awards to expose the fact that Zhang Tongzu teamed up with the then Academy Awards Organizing Committee to erase the nomination qualifications.
For Lu Deshuang's two requests, Wen Jun felt a deep headache.
Zhang Tongzu is his senior, plus Wen Jun's understanding of Zhang Tongzu's character, it is estimated that it is a problem for him to come forward to apologize to Lu Deshuang, not to mention the way of apologizing in the newspaper and on the show, which is simply a hundred times more difficult than the former.
If there is some hope for the first condition, then the second condition is simply impossible to achieve.
Because for a film award, the most important thing is fairness, if the Xiangjiang Academy Awards really do what Lu Deshuang did, he is undoubtedly beating himself up, such a thing, Wen Jun will definitely not be able to agree, if he agrees, then he will not become a sinner in the Xiangjiang film industry.
The conditions couldn't be agreed, but Wenjun still continued to find someone to be a lobbyist.
The reason why Lu Deshuang attaches so much importance is not because of now, after all, although there are fewer artists from Lu Deshuang's company, the starlight is a little dimmed, but there is still no shortage of big names in the town, but considering the future situation, Wen Jun has to solve the contradiction with Lu Deshuang.
What is the current situation of Xiangjiang movies, everyone knows well, and it is not too much to describe it as a sunset.
As one of the few people who maintain his sanity among the Xiangjiang filmmakers, Wen Jun has clearly felt the decline of Xiangjiang films, the rise of mainland films, and the gap between the two may not be very big now, but with the emergence of various domestic blockbusters, Xiangjiang films are doomed to failure, and if Xiangjiang filmmakers want to survive, they must enter the mainland and rely on the mainland market.
When Xiangjiang filmmakers leave Xiangjiang, it is inevitable that Xiangjiang films will definitely not be able to afford to collapse after the lack of outstanding talents.
When the time comes, how should the Xiangjiang Academy Awards deal with itself?
Not to mention, Wen Jun's biggest concern is not this problem, but the problem that worries him more is that there is no successor.
Whether it is a director or an actor, there is a phenomenon of lack of success.
Take actors as an example, almost all the actors who are active on the big screen now are old faces such as Liu Dehao , Liang Chaowei , etc., and among the few young actors who are still active, those who can take out their hands can be counted with one finger.
In terms of young actors, among the post-70s, Gu Tianle is barely one, and Wu Yanzu is half, after all, they only debuted in Xiangjiang, not from Xiangjiang, and in the post-80s, there are only Xie Tingfeng, Liu Kai and Yu Wenle.
Xie Tingfeng suffered a lot of adverse effects on his image and development due to the "top bag case"; Liu Kai is also an unlucky child, because 'suck. The poison was caught, and it was hidden by Deshuang Media, and it has been abolished, and even if it is not abolished, Liu Kai is still an artist under Deshuang Media, not to mention Yu Wenle, after Liu Kai was abolished, he took over Liu Kai's resources, and naturally it is impossible to work against Lu Deshuang.
Therefore, it is not that Wen Jun is worried about the sky, but the cruelty of reality is in front of him.
When the time and place are favorable, and people are not on the side of the Xiangjiang Academy Awards, the only thing Wen Jun can do is to try his best to reach a settlement with Lu Deshuang, because Lu Deshuang's future is limitless, and if the Academy Awards continue to work against Lu Deshuang, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat.
