.........

The next half a month.

Fang Ziheng is leisurely every day, going to work on time, leaving work on time, and living a life of two o'clock and one line.

At nine o'clock in the morning, he came to the group in good spirits and dealt with the affairs of the group first.

In the afternoon, I had lunch and rested for a while, and then edited "The Great Cause of the Army".

I got off work on time at half past five, went home to accompany Zeng Li and his daughter, and sometimes bought some food to cook by myself.

Occasionally, he would stay in the duplex for one night.

Concubine Lin and Andy, the two beauties came to reward the little man who worked hard to cut the film according to the situation.

Actually, it's not hard,

"The Great Cause of the Founding of the Army" is set for the National Day, and the time is still early, so he doesn't want to worry about the rough and re-cutting of the movie.

He, the chief director, only needs to check the fine cut and set the cut.

Liu Qianqian is filming in North America, and she will not return to China until October, and she will send him videos every night.

Song Yi, Da Tiantian, and Yang Xue are also busy with work, flying all over the country, and they are steadily popular Xiaohuadan.

........

June 20th.

As soon as Fang Ziheng finished the fine editing of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Army", he was interrupted by a phone call from Han Dong, who interrupted the beautiful retreat and cultivation time.

"What, join the Film Association?"

In the office of the chairman of China Film, his eyes widened and he looked at Han Dong with a determined face in surprise.

Mistaken, right?

He is not yet thirty years old, and he joined the film association so early, what should those old guys do, how can they be embarrassed.

Seeing that he was cheap and behaved, Han Dongle waved his hand to let him sit down first, and said angrily: "What, you don't want to join the Film Association?" ”

"If you don't want to, say it as soon as possible, I'm going to attend a film enlargement meeting organized by the Federation of Literary and Art Circles in a few days, which is just to help you refuse to the Federation of Literary and Art Circles."

"How can it, I've wanted to get closer to the organization for a long time, haven't I always had a chance!"

Fang Ziheng smiled and made a serious statement.

Forthwith..

He rubbed his hands, looked at Han Dong expectantly, and asked, "Do you think I can get a vice president or vice chairman!" ”

"If you think of the United States, you will be given a director at most!" The corners of Han Dong's mouth twitched, too lazy to take care of his cheekiness.

The vice president of the Film Association, who is less than thirty years old, is up to him.

Five years later.

Ten years later.

It's pretty much the same thing that the old guys are back!

Fang Ziheng also felt that there was little hope, and now on the table, there are still many leading cadres left over from the old studio.

These leaders have not left, and they continue to play a hot role in their posts, and it is still early for them to take up the position on their backs.

The rest is simpler.

Han Dong took him to the Federation of Literary and Art Circles and submitted his personal information and a beautiful resume in filmmaking.

That day.

Fang Ziheng became a member of the 8th Council of the Film Association.

……

June 23rd.

The second enlarged meeting of the 8th Council of the Film Association was held in the auditorium of the Imperial Capital Zhengxie.

Many departments participated in the meeting, including the Propaganda Department, Optoelectronics, China Film, other institutions under the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and the heads of film associations in various provinces and cities across the country.

There are also China Opera, Nortel, Shanghai Opera, People's Theater, National Theater, etc., a total of 500 people attended the meeting.

The young Fang Ziheng attended the meeting impressively.

He sat with Lao Mouzi, Chen Daren, Li Xuejian, and Chen Daoming, and sat in the second row.

Like Fang Ziheng, the four Lao Mouzi became directors this time, and Li Xuejian was also elected vice chairman.

In the first two rows, sit the backbone of the film association.

In the third and fourth rows, a group of film and television company CEOs and directors were invited to attend today's meeting.

In the back, there are members of the Film Association, well-known actors, and so on.

In the entire auditorium, more than 500 people were sitting in danger, and the distinction was clear.

From the rostrum, two rows in the front, two rows in the middle, and five rows in the back, four different seats reflect everyone's position in the film system.

In the middle of the fourth row, Feng put down the filming of "Private Order" and rushed back to participate in today's meeting.

His eyes didn't look at the stage, but looked at the five people in the second row of Fang Ziheng with resentment.

This time, he failed to become a director as he wished, and became a spectator.

As soon as he thought of the answer given by the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, Feng Pants became angry.

Only five people were selected this year, three directors and two actors, what Lao Mouzi and Chen Daren are more qualified, and what Fang Ziheng is talented.

In and out of the words, he should be unlucky.

I don't have your share this time, I'll talk about it next time!

The next one, the next one, will have to wait another five years.

Feng Pants has a relative, a feeling that after being beaten by the wind and rain, he lives up to his former prestige.

Next to him, Wang Zhongjun looked unhappy, and bumped into him and comforted: "Gangzi, what a big deal, we are not rare, if you want to enter, let's go directly to the Zhengxie." ”

"Huh.. Let's talk about it. ”

Feng's pants twitched, and he really wanted to give Wang Zhongjun a big mouth.

Entering the high-level of the Film Association is a lifelong thing, the older you get, the more popular you are, and you can still exert your residual heat at the age of seventy or eighty.

Entering the Zhengxie seems to be majestic, but in fact, it will only take five years.

Like Fang Ziheng and the five of them, the next step is the vice chairman of the Film Association, and everyone else says that they are fragrant when they fart in the entertainment industry.

Wang Zhongjun was not comforted, but when he comforted Feng Pants, he was even more worried.

........

Nine a.m.

The conference began, and the beginning of the meeting was a cliché.

First, Li Qian, chairman of the Film Association, made a report on the work of the first five years to the conference, and then talked about the five-year work plan.

The theme of the project remains largely unchanged, which is to revitalize Chinese-language films and export Chinese-language culture overseas.

Then, the heads of various departments took the stage to speak at length.

The leaders speak official clichés, which make people drowsy and unable to lift their spirits.

Two hours later, the meeting finally got to the point.

At the opening meeting the year before last, Kang Jianmin, vice chairman of the Film Association, who slapped the table with Chen Daren, spoke on behalf of the Film Association, pointing directly to the current predicament of the Chinese film industry.

"In the current film industry, there is a 28th law prevailing in capitalism, where blockbusters, big casts, and big productions occupy the best schedules, have the most powerful publicity, and impact higher box office.

At least eighty percent of the market share is occupied by large-scale productions, and the remaining two-percent is divided by small-cost productions.

This is not a good phenomenon, the Chinese film market is booming day by day, and small and medium-cost films are also part of the market.

There are only a few big productions every year, twelve months a year, and most of the films released in theaters are small and medium-sized costs! ”

Kang Jianmin first pointed out the disadvantages of the current Chinese films, blockbusters take all, and there are no scum left in the small and medium-sized costs.

Immediately, he changed his words and raised his voice a little bit: "Speaking of small-budget films, at the beginning of this year, the film agreement cooperated with the statistical agency under Optoelectronics to do a large-scale research activity on the issue of small-budget films.

We found that in the creation process of small-budget films, there are generally shoddy production, low theme ideas, single plot stories, weak logic, insufficient connotation, and improper views.

The style is changeable, which should be the advantage of small and medium-sized costs!

But as far as our research goes, most films don't even have perfect scripts after they start

The investors, directors, crews, and even actors do not have the concept of making a good work, so that the level of the finished film is extremely low, resulting in the audience not buying it! ”

With Kang Jianmin's voice, everyone in the audience came to the spirit.

His words were right, and they spoke to the hearts of many people.

A movie.

If it is said that at the beginning of the project, the director and actor must occupy the first place, and with the blessing of the famous director and famous actors, the investor will invest money.

But when the crew is well prepared and filming starts, the movie script must be put first.

At this time, the arrows are on the bow, the director, producer, crew departments, and actors are all in place, and filming will start immediately.

I suddenly found that the script was not done well, or that the director had a new idea and wanted to change the way of shooting.

This Nima is going to die!

The script is not perfect, and the narrative of the film is very problematic, resulting in an inconsistent style.

There are also directors who want to make a play, regardless of the quality of the movie, they just want to finish it as soon as possible and make money while the market is hot.

】

Two, ten, hundred.

Every year, countless small and medium-budget films are submerged in theaters and killed on the beach by big productions under such circumstances.

Wang Zhongjun, Yu Dong, Wang Changtian, Song Ge and others nodded frequently, agreeing with Kang Jianmin's words.

Low-budget films, focusing on a small and broad, producers are mostly newly established film and television companies.

Most of the bosses of these newly established companies come from across the border and don't understand movies at all.

I drank two more glasses on the wine table, and as soon as I bragged and patted my head, I decided to invest, and I didn't have the idea of making it well.

These companies also like to go it alone, not looking for professionals to join, and not looking for large companies to check the gates.

It seems that they are afraid that the big film and television companies will take a fancy to the project in their hands and stealthily rob it.

After the finished film came out, I didn't understand the quality of the movie, so I went to the door to find major film and television companies to distribute it.

As soon as they came up, they opened their mouths and said that the movie they made was a big dark horse!

If you big companies don't invest tens of millions of publicity fees, you will regret it for a lifetime, and I'm sorry for their hard work.

Then, Kang Jianmin talked about some high-grossing small-budget movies, saying that these movies were 'vulgar in plot and low-grade in taste'.

"Aside from those small-budget films that can't sell, those domestic small-budget films that sell well also have various problems.

The value is missing, the plot is vulgar, and the aesthetic is blindly lowered to sensationalize.

Among them, "One Night Surprise" and "Little Times" have been criticized the most, the former is vulgar and does not talk about the lower limit for fun, and the latter hyped up the concept of money worship to corrupt the audience's values! ”

It is true that a movie or TV series does not have to educate people like a textbook in every plot.

But we are filmmakers, and every time we create a work, we always have to think about it for the audience.

Just to make the audience laugh, in order to pursue the box office, regardless of the basic logic of the movie, ignoring the three views of modern people, the plot is extremely exaggerated, the props are extremely luxurious, and often cannot win word-of-mouth affirmation.

A "popular" and "popular" work requires the creator to improve the cultural content of the film while pursuing profits, and provide the audience with "delicious" and "nutritious" spiritual food! ”

After some accusations, Kang Jianmin put down the microphone with satisfaction.

He knows how to measure himself very well and did not shoot at major film and television companies.

According to what he just said, Xu Zheng's "Modern Times", Feng Pants's "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb 2", and Zhao Yanzi's "To Youth" are all within the scope of criticism.

……

After Kang Jianmin finished speaking, Li Qian took over the topic and chatted again.

Li Qian pointed out that there are many plagiarism incidents in current Chinese-language films.

A movie is a big hit, and there will inevitably be many follow-up works in the future, borrowing the popularity and bluffing of the previous work.

This is unhealthy behavior and is the poison of Chinese films.

Just when Fang Ziheng listened to the essence and taste, secretly thinking that Li Qian didn't know whose life he would order, and which works to follow.

A voice mixed with a little laughter and inquiry suddenly reached his ears.

"Director Fang, you are the youngest and most talented director in our country, and you are also one of the few directors who can perfectly integrate art and commerce.

At the same time, you are also one of the directors who have been the most victims of following the trend, you can tell you how to resist this bad plagiarism! ”

Fang Ziheng suddenly froze.

He looked at Li Qian, who was smiling and making a gesture on the stage, and 10,000 draft horses galloped in his heart.

Not good!

The old guy digs a hole for him and makes him stand up and offend people!

At this time, the eyes of everyone at the scene also gathered.

Whether it is the leaders on and off the stage, or the bosses, directors, and actors of film and television companies in the back row, they all look at him.

Fang Ziheng Shi Ran got up, and a staff member trotted over and handed over the microphone.

Gotcha!

Since the leader has named him, he should do it!

"Actually, we don't need to blame too much for following movies and plagiarizing movies, anyone who is engaged in the film industry will more or less use the rules of reference at the beginning of their career.

Use the excellent works of predecessors as your own source of inspiration, and combine your own creativity to shoot a new work.

Personally, I never think of this kind of borrowing as plagiarism.

After all, I was once a young man!

I remember when I was in film school, whenever the teacher asked us to submit creative books, I, like my classmates, rushed to the film room after class.

Look east and west, and then find a movie that matches the theme of the homework assigned by the teacher.

Next week, a new synopsis is here! ”

Fang Ziheng used self-deprecating words to describe his early years of study in the directing department of the film academy.

Many people from the academy who listened to his words smiled.

That's what they do a lot!

Whether it is the director department or the acting department, which has not borrowed from the works and performances of predecessors.

Plagiarize!

It doesn't exist, it's okay!

Things between cultural people, that's not called plagiarism!

On the rostrum, Li Qian opened his mouth and secretly cursed a little slippery.

The little guy knows the rules very well and doesn't set up!

Just when he wanted to remind Fang Ziheng and wave the big stick to let him tell the truth.

saw Fang Ziheng's words turn sharply, and pointed the finger at the topic that Kang Jianmin said before.

"Dear leaders, colleagues, compared with following the trend of plagiarism, I feel that movies like 'complex vulgarity and low-level fun' need to be boycotted and sanctioned more.

For example, movies like "Little Times", ten years ago, these movies could not have been a big hit, and they swept hundreds of millions of box office.

The development of the times and the vigorous development of the Internet have made the dissemination of information faster and more effective, which has created box office hits such as "Little Times".

Let the broad masses of the people have no choice but to watch an inferior movie with extremely improper views! ”

In the spacious conference room, Fang Ziheng's serious voice sounded.

His tone was not high, but he was unusually grim and cold.

bombarded "Little Times", pointing the finger at the traffic movies that are gradually emerging.
