The darkness faded away, and the sun rose.

A few days later, Minister Sun officially stepped down, and Li Xiuman stepped down. With the inauguration of the new minister, it was officially announced that the new chairman of the Korea Entertainment Business Group will be Mr. Yoon Cheon-woo, the representative of JYP Entertainment.

Since then, as a Chinese, Yoon Tianyou has become South Korea's premier entertainment overlord, under his leadership, the new movie "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" was fully released in South Korea, and it broke the historical record of all Korean movies in just three days, the reason is very simple, there are too many theaters, word-of-mouth is bursting, and the Korean entertainment industry after the chaos needs a happy thing to be exciting.

……

Time flies, and more than a month passes in the blink of an eye.

During this period, JYP swept South Korea with the new film "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" directed by Yoon Tianyou, beating all opponents to the point of "collapse".

The time and place are favorable, it can be said that Yin Tianyou's movie is all occupied, and it is inevitable that it will become popular, but I didn't expect it to be so popular, so that this fire has spread to Asian countries, in Japan, China, Thailand and other places, all of which have set off a "FIVE trend", so that filmmakers all over Asia and the world know how good the movie directed by the genius FIVE Yin Tianyou is.

In fact, at this time, Yin Tianyou doesn't pay much attention to the box office, and for him, he needs a new challenge, instead of continuing to be so unscrupulously popular.

But it backfired, because he soon received news that the "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" directed by himself was shortlisted for this year's Cannes Film Festival!

Incredible!

You must know that Korean films have always been not very conspicuous at the Cannes Film Festival, and there are very few Cannes Best Actresses, and now this drama has been shortlisted for Best Film. The four most important awards are Best Actor, Best Director and Best Adaptation. Absolutely incredible.

As soon as the news came out, it was so exciting!

Yin Tianyou never gave face like the Cannes Organizing Committee. They don't seem to like Korean movies very much, and they think that Korean movies are too packaged, except for the best products like "Old Boy" and "Empty House", there are basically no good movies, and this time they are also kind......

Yin Tianyou didn't know that a person's fame could affect many things. Especially this Korean entertainment riot, his name Yin Tianyou is known to everyone in the world, and the movie he directed has become a window for everyone to understand him. It is in such a situation. His film only became popular in Cannes, and it was directly shortlisted for four major awards, becoming an irreproducible nomination myth.

If this news makes anyone the most unhappy, it is undoubtedly S-M Entertainment's big boss Li Xiuman.

Recently, Yin Tianyou's popularity has been too rebellious.

His luck is too bloody.

I sat on the throne of the president, and before my ass was warm, I was squeezed down, and now other people's films have been shortlisted for world-class film festivals, which is really unreasonable.

But that's not what bothers Li Xiuman the most, and now the stock price of his company has plummeted. I can't even sit firmly in the position of chairman of the company, and there are people in the company who continue to impeach me on the board of directors, but fortunately I have enough equity in my hands, otherwise I would have been ousted from office.

"Alas, a share. is also mixed in the entertainment industry, why is the realm gap so big? ”

For Li Xiuman, it is simply this: people are better than people. Angry!

……

South Korea's "Entertainment Express" - "FIVE's new film Yoon Tianyou is nominated for Cannes and is about to become famous overseas!" ”

Hong Kong's "Entertainment Times" -- "According to reliable sources. South Korean superstar Yoon Tianwoo was recognized by the Cannes Film Festival, and his new drama was shortlisted for the film festival! “

Japan's "Asahi Shimbun" -- "Private Horse Competition." Asian superstar Yin Tianyoujun has been confirmed to be shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival as a director, as a singer, he has this achievement in the film industry, which is really gratifying, and now play a song by Yin Tianyou to give everyone a gift! ”

……

Who would have thought that Yin Tianyou would be able to set off a thousand waves in the Asian entertainment industry just by being shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival.

Whether it is South Korea, Hong Kong, or the major media of the company, they all reported enthusiastically about his entry into Cannes, and for a time, the frequency of Yoon Tianyou's news even exceeded that of Prime Minister and the president of South Korea, reaching a heinous situation.

It's just a shortlist, and I didn't win an award.

In this regard, Yin Tianyou himself felt a lot of pressure.

But the world is not up to him, just when Yin Tianyou was thinking about how to make the next film and what type of movie to shoot, he was "sent" to Hong Kong by JYP Entertainment Company to promote the movie.

In fact, according to Yin Tianyou's current identity and status, not to mention his king-level honor, the identity of the chairman of the entertainment group alone is not trivial, and no one can summon him at all. This time he went to Hong Kong on his own whim, he wanted to go to Hong Kong to do a roadshow to promote his "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood", in fact, many people know his thoughts, he wants to avoid the pursuit of the Korean media, and go to Hong Kong to do some private affairs by the way.

……

It's not the first time Yin Tianyou has come to Hong Kong, and he made a lot of friends when he came here last time, such as the famous Hong Kong filmmaker Liu Dehua, and Ren Dahua, who he met through Liu Dehua.

This time he came to Hong Kong, Yin Tianyou first contacted Lau Dehua, but unfortunately Andy is filming in the mainland, which is said to be a mainland drama about abduction, about a father who lost his child and began a long journey to find his son on a motorcycle. Andy plays the male protagonist in the play, and the background is an ordinary migrant worker, which is a big challenge for Andy, who has always taken the fashion route. In fact, in recent years, many famous Hong Kong actors have been taking different breakthrough routes, such as Aaron Kwok in the Four Heavenly Kings, filming "The Favorite", he successfully challenged the role of a farmer, and Jackie Chan is said to be preparing to shoot a sequel to the police story, playing the role of a mainland policeman in the play, which is also a self-challenge.

It can be seen that with the decline of Hong Kong films, many Hong Kong filmmakers have looked north to China and went to the mainland to pan for gold.

In this case, Yin Tianyou came to Hong Kong, because Liu Dehua was in the mainland, he could not fulfill the friendship of the landlord. only gave Yin Tianyou's contact information, and let the great director Tsui Hark, who was in Hong Kong, entertain Yin Tianyou.

In fact, Liu Dehua's arrangement is very particular. First of all, Lau Dehua knows that Yin Tianyou likes Hong Kong movies very much. And Tsui Hark is a senior in the Hong Kong film industry, and he is a master of martial arts. Secondly, Liu Dehua and Tsui Hark are also teachers and friends, one of them is a model worker in the circle, and the other is an old monster in the circle, especially after cooperating in the movie "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire", the relationship between the two has gone further. At last. Tsui Hark happened to be in Hong Kong, and he had extra free time, so it was best for him to entertain Yin Tianyou, the king of South Korea.

Yin Tianyou took a taxi, followed the address index, came to Tsui Hark's place of residence, got out of the car, and called Tsui Hark-

"Hey, hello, is it Director Tsui Hark-xu?" Very standard Cantonese.

"I am. Who are you? There was some confusion on the other end.

"My name is Yin Tianyou, and Andy introduced me to meet you."

"Ah...... It's Mr. Yin, long admiration, long admiration. Jiuyang, where are you now? ”

"I'm right downstairs from you."

"Alright, then you can come up quickly. The second, third and fourth floors are all our company, and I am on the fourth floor. Tsui Hark also has a studio in Hong Kong. Although his focus has shifted to the mainland, Hong Kong is his home base. He would never give up.

"Well, I'll be right there, goodbye first."

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

After going up according to the address, Yin Tianyou came to Tsui Hark's office. Seeing him coming, the secretary hurriedly bowed and said, "I'm sorry, Director Xu is still talking to others, Mr. Yin, can you wait a little?" ”

Yin Tianyou smiled, "Of course you can." ”

So he found a place to sit down and flipped through the magazines. After about four or five minutes, Tsui Hark sent a man out. Yin Tianyou heard this person speak slowly, and he was frustrated, so he raised his head and glanced at it inadvertently, and found that hey, isn't this person the king of comedy in Hong Kong, Zhou Xingchi?

After sending Zhou Xingchi away, Tsui Hark turned around, stretched out his hands, and held Yin Tianyou's hand, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Yin, I actually asked you to wait here." ”

Tsui Hark's enthusiasm made Yin Tianyou feel a little warm, so he smiled and said, "You are a senior, just call me FIVE." ”

"FIVE? Hehe, that's good, you and Andy are friends, and I are friends - come, come, come, let's talk in the office. Tsui Hark stretched out his hand to invite Yin Tianyou into the office and said to the secretary, "Take out my top dragon well." ”

After sitting down in the office, Yin Tianyou said: "Actually, in addition to promoting my own movies in Hong Kong this time, I also came to ask Senior Xu for advice. ”

"I can't talk about it, I can't talk about it." Tsui Hark shook his hand vigorously and said, "Your business is well known, whether it is in Korea or Asia, it is very popular, I heard that your film has recently been shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival, it is really terrifying - of course, Andy also mentioned to me that the purpose of your coming here is that you have encountered problems in creation, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask me, I know everything, I can say everything." ”

"That's really grateful." Yin Tianyou nodded and said.

"FIVE, don't say this again, it won't be interesting to say it again. Although I am a senior, I only have years and experience, and compared to the achievements you have made, it is about the same...... So I'm very willing to make you a friend, so don't say any more kind words, I'll be angry if I say it again. ”

Yin Tianyou nodded with a smile, pondered for a while, and asked, "Then I want to ask Senior Xu, what is the development trend of the Asian film market at present?" ”

Tsui Hark smiled, "Trend? Chinese mainland, of course. This market is huge, and in my opinion, it will not take a few years to surpass North America and become the world's number one film country. ”

"Then I would like to ask, if you want to enter the mainland market, what type of movies do you need to shoot?" This is the question Yin Tianyou wants to ask the most.

"That's a good question, I've also been confused, when I went north to Shenzhou, I took almost the old road, shooting martial arts films, but unfortunately they all fell into the sand, and in recent years, I have regained a little self-confidence with "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", and now I have found a little self-esteem with "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire", so ah, my type is martial arts, and I am good at martial arts, or it is a very strong theme, recently I am preparing to shoot the red-themed "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", all kinds of preparations have been completed, and I am preparing to shoot——"

"The reason why I tell you so much is that I hope you can understand my journey, don't rush to shoot what you shoot, shoot what you are best at, be down-to-earth, and it is best to communicate with the audience through movies."

"However, I have heard that the censorship of mainland films is very strict, and even if you take the co-production route, you will be subject to all kinds of restrictions, and even after the filming is completed, it will not be released for a long time. Wouldn't it be a loss to make a movie like this? This is also Yin Tianyou's biggest concern, he has always had the desire to enter the mainland market, and even plans to co-produce movies, but the mainland's fierce review system really makes him a little daunted, especially through this "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" This is a deep experience.

"Hehe, that's a bit acute." Tsui Hark chuckled with a chuckle.

Yin Tianyou hurriedly shook his hand, "I'm sorry, I was abrupt." ”

"But it's nothing, you were introduced by Andy, and now you're a friend, so you're not an outsider. I might as well be honest with you, the mainland is very strict, but recently there have been some changes in policy, and a series of policies for entertainment media have been introduced. I summarized it, that is, as long as there are three noes, no reactionary, no ****, and no low-level fun, then anything can be done and anything can be broadcast. Therefore, in the past two years, the entertainment industry in the mainland has developed very rapidly, especially the development of film media. In such an environment, my company made tens of millions of dollars last year alone. ”

Speaking of this, Tsui Hark smiled again, and pretended to be mysterious: "But let's just say this here, don't go out and say it, otherwise those Hong Kong tax departments will take me under their control, haha." ”

Yin Tianyou smiled together, "It seems that Senior Xu's career is very prosperous." ”

Tsui Hark nodded a little proudly, "In the past, many people said that Hong Kong movies have declined, and Oriental Hollywood no longer exists, who knows that the real Oriental Hollywood has just risen, but not in Hong Kong, but in the mainland." As long as the spirit of entertainment in Hong Kong does not die, then it can blossom and bear fruit wherever it is - do you know what the spirit of entertainment is? The spirit of entertainment is to make people laugh and make people happy, and then I have to go back and reflect on why I shoot like this and act like this......"

When Yin Tianyou heard this, he couldn't help but ponder.

The spirit of entertainment?

And how many people are really insisting?

Most filmmakers shoot just to earn box office or win awards. There are also a few who really put the audience first, put the spirit in the movie, influence them, change them - (to be continued.) )
