"As far as I know, as long as the film industry is slightly developed, there are similar institutions to the film association to regulate, coordinate and guide the entire film market, as well as as the representative body of the local film industry to communicate with similar institutions in other countries and regions, and even South Korea, where the film industry is far more backward than Hong Kong, so it is extremely unreasonable that Hong Kong has not established a film association so far."

"Especially in recent years, Hong Kong films have been vigorously developed, both in terms of production level and theory are ahead of other Asian countries and regions, we can fully expect that in the next few years Hong Kong films will usher in a period of great development, in order to better cater to this period of development, the establishment of the Hong Kong Film Association has been a top priority, so Mr. Gu after consulting with Mr. Shaw Yat-fu, Mr. Zou Wenhuai, Mr. Xiang Huaqiang and government agencies including the Broadcasting and Publication Administration, It was unanimously decided to set up the Hong Kong Film Society today. ”

"According to the approval of the Hong Kong Governor's Office, the Hong Kong Film Society is a quasi-official organization with the power to supervise, coordinate and guide the entire film market, for example, from today to the next week, all film companies in Hong Kong must register with the Film Association and accept the supervision of the Film Association. The government department of Hong Kong's subjective film and television industry is not the Broadcasting and Publication Department, but the Film, Television and Entertainment Administration) proposed to revoke its business license. ”

"Secondly, the Film Society has the right to be within the framework of Hong Kong law. Formulate some rules within the industry, and these rules are implemented by the film association itself, and other specific functions and powers are described in detail in the materials you have in hand. I won't explain them all. In addition, after negotiation, Mr. Koo will be the first president of the Hong Kong Film Society, and Mr. Shaw Yat-fu, Mr. Zou Wenhuai and Mr. Xiang Huaqiang will be the vice presidents. The first executive council was chaired by Wu Siyuan, and other council members will be elected later. ”

The reporters at the bottom listened and looked through the information in their hands, and only felt that the film association had a lot of power, and on the surface, it seemed that the one who benefited the most was the first president Gu Chen. To put it bluntly, as soon as this film association was established, Gu Chen was tantamount to holding the power of life and death of all film companies in Hong Kong. In addition to the revocation of the business license, which needs to be implemented by the Film and Entertainment Affairs Management Office, in other aspects, Gu Chen wants you to be flat, and wants you to be round, in the eyes of some people. The Film Association is like something that Gu Chen made up for dictatorship. However, some people of insight are much more rational in their thinking. They can see the benefits of the establishment of the Film Association to Hong Kong films, and with Gu Chen's current status and influence in the Hong Kong film industry, it seems that there is no need to engage in so-called dictatorship in the Hong Kong film industry.

Ng continued, "The establishment of the Hong Kong Film Society is the main part of today's press conference, and I would like to take this opportunity to announce two new ordinances. First, a classification system will be set up for Hong Kong films, and films shot in the past and in the future will need to be graded, and the specific plan is still being formulated. Second. It's about movie ticket prices, and everyone knows it. Over time, there has been an increasing investment in film production in recent years; In the future, the Film Association will determine the local film ticket price in Hong Kong according to the investment scale and production level of each film, which means that the film ticket price will be floating in the future. ”

The host saw that Wu Siyuan had finished speaking, and said in a timely manner: "Okay, everyone who wants to know the Tao of Wu has just said it, and now I invite Mr. Gu to speak, everyone applauds." After speaking, the host applauded first, and then there was warm applause from reporters.

Gu Chen coughed, and the applause suddenly stopped slowly: "I know that some people here will doubt the intention of establishing the Hong Kong Film Association, I don't want to explain more here, time will tell." As for the intention of establishing a film classification system and adopting a floating film ticket price system, it is actually very obvious. The first is the establishment of a film classification system, which has been implemented in Hollywood for many years, which can better protect minors and make the entire film industry more healthy and standardized. Let me give you a simple example, in the United States, although erotic films are not banned, there is a limit to the time they can be played, usually after 12 o'clock in the morning. In Hong Kong, there are no such regulations at all, and you can even see those erotic films exposing sensitive parts in the cinema in broad daylight, which is obviously very inappropriate. In addition, some extremely violent and bloody movies are also prone to have a negative social impact, and should be limited in terms of screening time, and even banned if it is too serious. In order to do this, it is necessary to develop a complete set of grading criteria. ”

"The second is the floating movie ticket price, which is a very real problem, and the producers continue to increase their investment, what are the films that are making more and more sophisticated films? In order to make more lucrative returns, only by making more profits can producers continue to invest and produce more and more films of higher quality, which is a virtuous circle that is beneficial to the long-term development of Hong Kong films. On the other hand, it is only natural that audiences will have to pay a greater price if they want to see higher-quality films, and there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. ”

"The detailed plans for both regulations are being worked out and will be officially announced and implemented in the near future. Of course, in the future, the Film Association will formulate more relevant regulations to regulate the entire market, so that Hong Kong films can enter the fast lane of sustainable development, which is also the original intention of our Film Association. ”

After Gu Chen's speech, Zhang Zhengzong, director of the Film and Entertainment Affairs Management Office, also delivered a brief speech: "I am very happy to attend the press conference for the establishment of the Hong Kong Film Agreement today, there is no doubt that the establishment of the Hong Kong Film Association is beneficial and harmless to Hong Kong films, and it indicates that Hong Kong films are truly moving towards formalization and marketization. In the future, the Film, Television and Entertainment Affairs Administration will cooperate with the Film Association on the one hand, and on the other hand, try not to interfere with the Film Association's exercise of its functions and powers, and put itself in a supervisory position. ”

Then it was time for the reporter to ask questions, different from the past, the target of the reporter's first question this time was not Gu Chen but Shao Yifu: "Hello Uncle Six, as we all know, the production of Shaw Brothers films has continued to decrease in recent years, and last year it was almost in a state of discontinuation, and you have publicly stated before that you will focus most of your energy on TVB, and now you are the vice president of the Hong Kong Film Society, does it indicate that Shaw Brothers films will return to the film industry?" What prompted you to change your mind? Is it because wireless has not performed well in recent years? ”

The reporter's description of wireless performance is already very euphemistic, but it is still so harsh when it stops in Shao Yifu's ears, but now is not the time for him to play his temper, I saw him smile faintly and said: "In the past few years, Shaw Brothers films have indeed gradually reduced production, that is because the Shaw Brothers has been poor since the 80s, and I am also cautious about whether Hong Kong films can continue to develop, it turns out that my idea is wrong, in the last two years, Hong Kong films have ushered in a golden age, A large number of excellent movies appeared on the screen, setting box office records one after another, and in the face of such a situation, I have no reason not to change the original plan, after all, businessmen are profit-seeking, and with the background of Shaw Brothers, they are fully capable of getting a piece of the pie. ”

Shao Yifu directly ignored the reporter's last question, and the answer was also to avoid the important and trivial, the reporter was about to ask, but the host had already spoken: "Okay, please invite the next reporter, the female reporter in red." As the supporter's voice fell, a female reporter sitting in the second row stood up: "Chen Shao, some time ago, you auctioned a blue diamond necklace worth 100 million yuan at the auction, according to accurate information, this necklace was given to Zeng Huaqian by you, can you explain your relationship with Miss Zeng?" Also, such a necklace is believed to be very rare in the world, you gave the necklace to Miss Zeng, Miss Wang, what are you going to give? ”

Gu Chen was a little helpless, every time he attended the press conference, no matter what the theme of the press conference was, the questions that the reporter asked him must have personal questions, unless he explicitly forbade asking questions unrelated to the theme of the press conference, but he hadn't done this in the past half a year, after all, it seemed that he was too undignified, and today he also had no intention of prohibiting it, he shrugged his shoulders and said generously: "It's the kind of relationship you have in mind, and that necklace was indeed given to Xiaoqian by me, as for what I plan to give Xiaoxian to them." All I can say is that I have no comment, and maybe you will know the truth in the future, but I don't want to say anything more at the moment. ”

Seeing that the host was about to speak, the female reporter hurriedly asked: "I have another question, so far you have disclosed a total of eight girlfriends, and now it is a modern civilized and open society, not an ancient feudal society, don't you think your behavior is a violation of women's dignity and rights?" ”

The eyes of everyone in the venue were focused on this female reporter, it was obvious that this female reporter was a feminist, looking at her indignant look, everyone couldn't help but wonder if Gu Chen would have anything more out of line if she didn't answer this question.
