Chapter 330: Which Onion Are You
All parties were nominating speeches, Gu Xiaofan took advantage of this time to observe the opposite, and the flat-headed man sitting in the front row who was not tall and had a resolute face was Han Sanpin. [Full text reading]
This man who Wang Zhongjun, Bao Lijun and others hated so much, looked calm and calm, but there was a kind of deterrent power between his eyebrows, there were so many film industry leaders on the scene, but he sat in it like a natural leader.
Gu Xiaofan thought to himself, Chu Qiubai was the leading boss of Shangying, but he was obviously inferior to Wang Zhongjun's bearing, but this Han Sanpin seemed to have suppressed Wang Zhongjun again...... is indeed not a simple person, thinking that he had rejected him on the phone before, Gu Xiaofan couldn't help but sweat profusely...... I think I was really young and ignorant back then......
And when Gu Xiaofan was looking at Han Sanpin, Director Shen on the other side was frowning, and he could see that there was no fight between China Film and Huayi today, and they must have reached a unanimous agreement, and when the proposal to add fourteen Hollywood movies a year was proposed at the end of the meeting, everyone would unanimously oppose it.
Director Shen actually has a hard time, why does he want to put forward this proposal, last year's negotiations he has made the Hollywood six retreat, but helplessly, this year the Hollywood six made a comeback, with a 3D model to find another way, coupled with the pressure of the WTO agreement, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television from the national level of the overall situation, so asked the film bureau to do the work of various film companies, and strive to pass this proposal.
This matter is a great burden to Director Shen, and the outside world thinks that their film bureau is greedy for the introduction of films, but in fact, to put it bluntly, everything is to stimulate the development of local films, but if the director of the association strongly opposes this proposal, I am afraid that according to the regulations of the association, the film bureau will not be able to force it to pass it within five years (five years later, in 2012, the screening association passed the clause of adding 14 imported films every year).
When the meeting was tacitly understanding each other and it was calm, I suddenly heard a loud voice: "Nominated by Shanghai Film Company, "Chinese Partner" produced by Shanghai Film Art Studio will be released on December 3. ”
As soon as this proposal came out, everyone was stunned for a moment, and their eyes looked at Gu Xiaofan who raised his hand.
Whether it is Han Sanpin or Wang Zhongjun, it is very unexpected, Shangying has always been just a foil in many directors, what is wrong today?
Since both parties agreed to this proposal beforehand, after proposing each other, none of them agreed except for Shangying himself.
Just kidding, there are only two movies on the file for this year's Chinese New Year, "Casting Names" released by China Film, and "Assembly Number" by Huayi Brothers.
You must know that "Casting the Name" and "Assembly Number" are the two ace directors of Chen Kexin and Feng Xiaogang launched by the two major domestic film giants, and the competition between the two is already extremely fierce when they are released at the same time, and the Chinese New Year file can no longer accommodate the other third films.
Director Shen looked at Gu Xiaofan carefully at this time, and suddenly recognized him, isn't this the student of Yan Ying who he performed at the musical competition last time?
He is now the representative of Shangying? What did Chu Qiubai mean by pushing him out?
But Gu Xiaofan did not give up, and immediately raised his hand and said: "Nominated by Shanghai Film Company, "Chinese Partner", produced by Shanghai Film Film Group, will be released on November 5. ”
This time, Wanda's Ye Zhiqiu hesitated and raised his hand, and then Bao Lidong of Light Pictures also thought about it and raised his hand, this time Han Sanpin frowned slightly, but he still didn't pass.
"Nominated by Shanghai Film Company, "Chinese Partner", produced by Shanghai Film Group, will be released on October 7."
Gu Xiaofan continued to nominate people, and then from November to July, more directors raised their hands every time they were nominated.
This made everyone see Gu Xiaofan's intentions, he wanted to see what everyone thought of Shangying in the association, and use voting to understand the status of Shangying Group in the association.
Everyone laughed in their hearts, looking at this little director, he didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, and it was not interesting to find himself, I really thought that this was still the 70s, and you went to the old era when the film studio dominated the world...... Now is not the time for you to be reckless.
Although Gu Xiaofan was tempted, every time he was nominated, he felt everyone's ridicule, ridicule, and cold disdain......
To put it bluntly, you Shangying is a fart in the association, and you Gu Xiaofan are the green onions?
Time and time again, although Gu Xiaofan has long planned that "Chinese Partner" will be released in June, he does not think that "Chinese Partner" is worse than other domestic films.
The ridicule and sarcasm of these people made him feel a little angry in his heart, you haven't even watched my movie, so you look disgusted, and you look down on people too much!
However, Gu Xiaofan still kept calm, what he wants to fight for today is not the schedule of "Chinese Partner", but the schedule of his next movie......
According to his plan, his next film is likely to be released at the end of the year, and if the current situation of the association is followed, I am afraid that he will be squeezed out of "Vote for Fame" and "Assembly Number", which is what he has to worry about.
"Nominated by Shanghai Film Company, "Chinese Partner", produced by Shanghai Film Group, will be released on June 15."
It wasn't until Gu Xiaofan mentioned that it would be released in June that all the directors of the association raised their hands.
This farce is over, but everyone knows the representative of Shangying.
Although the process was somewhat unexpected, the result was as expected, and the Distribution and Projection Association did not have their place in the film.
After determining the schedule of each film, finally this meeting reached the most tense moment.
"Now, I am also announcing a proposal from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television." Director Shen said in a deep voice.
"At the request of the higher-level leaders, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, in accordance with the terms of the WTO, asked us to discuss the increase from the quota of 20 foreign films to 34 ...... each year."
Director Shen's gaze swept over everyone with great authority, you must know that the Film Bureau has the power to approve the release of various films, and whoever dares to disobey Director Shen's edge will risk being shot or deleted in the future......
Wang Zhongjun didn't speak, Ye Zhiqiu didn't speak, and Yu Dong didn't dare to speak, because they didn't dare to make a sound.
Bao Lidong, who was usually talking endlessly and arrogant, suddenly became dumb, his eyes looked motionless and silent.
At this time, Director Shen's eyes looked in the direction of the theater representative, and he asked directly: "Yan Chao, you are the person in charge of the largest cinema in China, the New Art Federation, can you tell me?" ”
Yan Chao, who is in his 50s and has a full face of the city government, is an old fritter among the directors of the association, and he usually follows the path of the leader the most, and his specialty is to specialize in patting the leader's ass.
Yan Chao's eyes moved, and he pondered for a moment and said: "Since it is a proposal made by the leaders of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, it naturally has his reasons, and I think it is okay to add more American films, which will promote the prosperity of our domestic film market."
This is a very shameless answer.
In Yan Chao's logic, keeping his position in the hearts of the leaders is the most important, as for putting American films in and suppressing domestic films, if they are suppressed, they will be suppressed, and they have nothing to do with themselves anyway.
Anyway, they are still wishing that more American movies would be released, American movies are of good quality, there are many blockbusters, and the masses of people are willing to watch them, and their theaters can sell more tickets and develop vigorously.
At this time, except for Wanda's Ye Zhiqiu, the other theater representatives all nodded and agreed, as long as they can make money, it doesn't matter if they fuck Chinese movies or American movies!
