Chapter 214, Takeaway Brother

The signing ceremony on the night of the "Miss Asia" finals only signed the contract of the top three contestants, and the winning beauties of other awards will not officially sign until all the procedures of the show are over.

All of this was scheduled for the fifth day after the finals, with the Miss Asia winners parading around the city on floats and the main sponsors' activities before taking place on ATV.

Xu Xiaoming has always been meticulous, and since the "Miss Hong Kong" program entered the semi-final recording, he began to advertise for ATV. What ATV's treatment is better, the TV station has more opportunities, and so on, the concept is constantly transmitted to the beauties who are participating in the election.

Among all the players, except for Li Meifeng, who was named the champion, none of the other players let go, and the award-winning favorites Ye Yuqing, Li Yanshan, etc., are the main targets, and even Li Meifeng has knocked on the side a few times, the purpose is self-evident, that is, to give ATV a few more famous pasts.

It's as if he doesn't know about his set, let him woo and fight for it casually, and even forbid the company's staff to set up obstacles for Xu Xiaoming. Don't look at Xu Xiaoming's running happily now, when it really comes to the day when ATV changes hands, as long as Mo Fei is willing to sign a contract, how did these people enter ATV, and how do they have to return to Phoenix Culture, isn't it a good thing that someone is helping to raise it now.

Under the guise of signing a contract with ATV and being able to cooperate with Phoenix Culture, he took out his apprentice Li Saifeng and ATV artists Tang Zhenzong, Liu Yong and others as examples, and added the statement that there are too many big names in Phoenix Culture. Xu Xiaoming's lobbying was quite successful, and seven of the top 10 in "Miss Asia" finally chose to sign with ATV.

Zhao Lingshan, the third runner-up from Taiwan, Li Yanshan of the Best Style Award, Zi Yongshu of the Best Posture Award, and Cao Wen of the Most Photogenic Award. and Jiang Siqi and Niu Lei, who ranked ninth and tenth, including Ye Yuqing, who won the runner-up, all chose to sign a contract with ATV. The only people who are willing to sign a contract to Phoenix Culture are Li Meifeng, the champion and the most popular among the audience, Shang Yao, the best demeanor award, and Liu Mujun, the best stage performance award.

The star journey of the electric eye beauty Li Meifeng is definitely not said, at least it will be very popular in Hong Kong and Chinese-speaking regions; The other Shang Yao and Liu Mujun, since they can be installed by Mo Fei for the best demeanor and the best stage performance, they must also have their own advantages, otherwise they would have been replaced by others to receive the award.

For this result. Mo Fei is very satisfied, it is enough for Phoenix Culture to sign these three people, and it doesn't make much sense for other players to sign or not.

After the official signing ceremony of "Miss Asia", the top three contestants, especially the champion Li Meifeng, also have to fulfill their responsibilities as champions, such as the promotional activities of sponsors such as New World and Xie Ruilin. It's impossible to have too much time to film for the time being.

Mo Fei didn't care about these things, and after arranging the three people who signed in Phoenix Culture, he rushed to Beijing with Ah Huo and a few other bodyguards, and "Farewell My Concubine" was the focus of his next work.

Phoenix Culture is only cooperating with the National Television Company in the production of TV series for joint shooting, and has not cooperated with mainland production institutions, that is, film co-production companies, in terms of films. Including this "Farewell My Concubine" is the same.

At the beginning, Li Hanxiang once proposed a co-production proposal, but in the end it was rejected by Mo Fei, and now he is cooperating with the mainland in TV series because he wants to prepare for opening up the market in the future, but the cooperative film will not have much effect, and even some gains outweigh the losses.

This and how much to invest. It doesn't matter much about making money or losing money, the most important thing is the mainland's current management model of the film market. It can be said to be a kind of constraint that restricts the development of the film industry.

Before the mainland's film market was completely opened, all aspects of production and public screening were strictly controlled, and the success of a film was largely not limited to the quality of the film itself, but more was played by political factors.

The reason why films like "Shaolin Temple" can sell well, and even sell hundreds of millions of yuan at the box office for a dime, there are very few factors that are really related to the movie, and the decisive factors are all additional factors.

Based on the total population of the mainland at that time, it should have been watched at least once per capita by the people of the whole country. But at this time, how many farmers are in the country, with the popularity rate of cinemas in this era, at least half of them can't see movies, and even in the city, it is impossible for everyone to go to the movies, so you can imagine how much the real audience plays a role in this box office.

Just like the world's high-profile World Expo a few years later, it also set a double record of tickets and people, but how many of those data were formed spontaneously and voluntarily, how many units and organizations had to go, and how many were participated, this is a confused account that non-core figures can never figure out.

Although doing business inevitably involves politics, Mo Fei hopes that he can stay away from politics as much as possible, even if he sells copies of movies to the mainland at the cheapest price. Especially at this time, the Soviet Union has not yet begun to be disintegrated, the Western society's thinking about China is still very impure, and the internal affairs have not yet reached complete unity, and the politics at this time are quite dangerous. And once it is involved in politics at this time, it will have a great impact on the future layout of Phoenix Culture, even if it is involved, it will have to wait until Phoenix Culture has enough strength. Of course, it would be best never to be involved, but this ideal is not realistic.

Li Hanxiang suggested co-production, on the one hand, to make it more convenient to shoot, and on the other hand, he also had the idea of taking the opportunity to attract capital for himself. He thinks that Mo Fei's film can travel unhindered in Taiwan, and Mo Fei naturally has a way to solve all the problems, but the fact is that Mo Fei's film can indeed travel unhindered in Taiwan, but that must be within a limited extent, even if the person who helps can have a good relationship in Taiwan, but when he really wants to stab the sky, it will be useless.

The film is not co-produced, but TV is no problem, Phoenix Culture's new drama "Qin Shi Huang" was filmed in cooperation with the State Television Company under the leadership of Liao Yiyuan this time, so this time in Beijing, the person responsible for receiving Mo Fei was the vice president of the State Television Company, Niu Struggle.

As soon as he got off the plane and walked to the pick-up gate, Mo Fei saw Niu Struggle and his assistant, after the two sides shook hands, Niu Struggle said: "Mr. Mo is tired from the journey, let's go to the hotel to rest first, dinner is ready in the hotel where you stay, you must not get drunk today." ”

Maybe it's because the thinking of officials in the 80s is not so "progressive", maybe it's because Mo Fei is in the name of a Hong Kong businessman, in short, Niu Fen has no official position, at least when he was with Mo Fei, so Mo Fei does not exclude more exchanges with Niu Fen.

smiled and said: "Mr. Niu is too polite, I came here with a rest all the way, how can I not be tired, but Mr. Niu personally came to pick up the opportunity, which made me embarrassed." ”

"Well, you can't say that." Niu Zhan used the gesture commonly used by the leaders, waved his big hand, and said: "Mr. Mo, you are a guest from afar, and you are also a patriotic Hong Kong businessman who supports the development of the motherland's film and television industry. Besides, we are old friends, even if you come to Beijing on business, it is normal for me to pick you up as a friend. ”

"Okay, then you're welcome." If you have to be polite any longer, you will hurt Comrade Lao Niu's enthusiasm, and said: "Mr. Lao Jia Niu will send me to the hotel first, and then I have to go to the company's film crew to see, and I will definitely have a good drink with Mr. Niu in the evening." ”

As the leader of an important management department of cultural work, Niu Struggle also knows about Phoenix Culture's filming in Beijing, but as soon as he goes to the crew, Lao Niu knows where he is going.

said: "It's the crew of "Farewell My Concubine", wait a minute, I'll accompany Mr. Mo and you to have a look, all my tasks today are to receive Mr. Mo." But then again, Mr. Mo, your company's film is really good, and the level of director Li Hanxiang is also very high, but it is a pity that a film with such a theme is not easy to be released in China. ”

Mo Fei also heard the complaints in Niu Zhan's words, it seems that not only other people have feelings, but even people in the mainland film and television industry feel that there is something wrong with the current system. It's just that this kind of complaint can only be said on this occasion, and even if you are dissatisfied with the struggle at another time and place, it is impossible to say anything, and you even have to vote for support.

This is politics, so I don't want to get involved. Niu Struggle could say, but he couldn't continue to talk, so he had to say in a comforting tone: "Mr. Niu doesn't have to worry too much, all industries in this world are progressing and developing in the process of constantly discovering problems, and the same is true for the domestic film and television industry, I believe this situation will change." Maybe it won't be long before the mainland's policy is opened up, and Western films will be released in China in large quantities. ”

"Hehe, I really hope that the day you said can arrive early, our film and television production is too much worse than that of Western countries." Niu Zhan sighed and said, "Okay, don't talk about this, I'll accompany you to get down to business first, and we'll have a good drink at night." ”

The two chatted about some other topics along the way, and after going to the hotel to drop off their things, they went to a courtyard where the crew of "Farewell My Concubine" was located.

Mo Fei and Honggu haven't seen each other for a few days, as soon as they got out of the car, they walked quickly to the courtyard, and before they walked a few steps away, they almost collided with a guy who was trotting over with his head down, but fortunately, Mo Fei was quick to dodge in time, but he also blamed this guy who was walking too fast.

The other party almost hit someone, and the box in his hand almost fell to the ground, so he hurriedly grabbed the box and said, "This gentleman, I'm really sorry, I didn't hit you, I'm in a hurry to send popsicles to the people inside......, eh, Mr. Mo, why are you?" ”

Mo Fei looked at Zhang Guorong, who was dressed in cool clothes and spoke Mandarin, and said with a smile: "Rong Shao, what's wrong with you, when did you start working as a part-time takeaway brother?" ”

The words are a joke, but he knows very well in his heart that Zhang Guorong has lived as a rich man since he was a child, and he has never had any financial restraint on himself, and it is common for him to invite guests to dinner in the crew, but when he filmed "Farewell My Concubine" in his previous life, didn't he do this.
