Chapter 263: You're the Big Toy

In his previous life, Li Yuan had participated in many meetings. There are official conferences, academic conferences in the industry, and of course, there are also investment associations that fool investors. But there has never been a literary symposium?

It's kind of fresh. Is it the kind of meeting where you drink tea and eat melon seeds, and talk about some art that you don't understand?

Regarding the purpose of inviting himself, Li Yuan was also puzzled.

In the mainland cultural circle, Li Yuan's news is quite closed. All right! I don't have any friends at all, and I can't talk about news channels at all.

To be fair, there are pros and cons to such a situation.

Just like after the publication of "Casino", a certain brother won the reputation of "rogue literature". Perhaps for other people of culture, this is a very hurtful and insulting act of cultural bullying. It is very likely that he will die, and it will even cause a lot of psychological shadows.

But for Li Yuan, it doesn't affect his social circle at all, and his relatives and friends don't care at all.

To be honest, it is better to have a "flower thief" to make the villagers of Yutouao Village happy.

In other words, the true damage is almost equal to zero.

But when it came to this literary symposium, Li Yuan's eyes were also black. He didn't know that after the broadcast of "Infernal Affairs", it had a huge impact within the cultural circle, and triggered a series of subsequent controversies.

To put it bluntly, Li Yuan was tied to the Dharma field. It is to let those old artists point their noses and scold, and let those old people extinguish their anger.

……

The symposium was held at a hotel near Xiangshan, and the time was also scheduled for the weekend. The session lasted for three days. In fact, the actual meeting was on the first day. The remaining two days should be for the old artists to go on vacation and relax.

It can be seen that this symposium is a relatively retreat meeting, and there are no particularly important topics. Oh, I almost forgot that it's still important to scold some stinky rascal who isn't the son of man.

Anyway, when the meeting was reported, the atmosphere was still very relaxed. He met many old artists who had admired the name for a long time, and got a lot of autographs. The only thing I regret is not bringing a camera this time. Otherwise, there will be a lot of famous scenes.

If you wait until a few decades later, and put those group photo signatures on your big V number, will the brothers also be able to pretend to be an old artist? And it's also a double xin of virtue and art, well, there are still people like chrysanthemums! (laughs and cries)

Don't say it, as long as you face the audience, the attitude of those old artists is absolutely impeccable. Quite enthusiastic and quite patient. Of course, the key is that they don't know the young man in front of them, they don't know that he is the notorious Brother Yuan, and they think he is a star chaser.

In the end, Xiao Guliang, who was waiting for the connection, couldn't stand it anymore: "Hey, comrade, call you." Can you stop messing around? ”

Also! I was so busy signing autographs that I almost forgot to report to the meeting. smiled at the little Gu Liang, and Xiao Gu Liang directly rolled his eyes.

"Hehe, I'm here to hold it too." Li Yuan smiled and slapped the invitation on the table.

"Huh? You? Xiao Guliang's eyes widened in disbelief.

"What? Am I not like it? "Anyway, if you're idle, you're idle, and Li Yuan is teasing Xiao Guliang by the way. This little lonely cool should be the staff of the agency. People in the cultural department generally don't look bad, and she is really eye-catching.

"Not really." Xiao Guliang smiled and shook his head, "Which child are you?" This thing was stolen from home, right? ”

"Of course not." Li Yuan raised his eyebrows, "Let me tell you a secret - in fact, I am a director." ”

"Huh? Comrade Little Director, then I'm still a big star. ”

"Please! Don't add a 'small', okay? Originally, I was going to invite you to be the heroine, but now you have lost this precious opportunity. ”

"Heroine? What movie? ”

"The Tale of the Tiger. You play the role of the mother ......."

"I warn you, how dare you say it? Dislike! ”

Xiao Guliang glared angrily, causing Li Yuan to laugh. With laughter, he signed the sign-in book.

"Huh? Are you Li Yuan? That's the ......."

Seeing Xiao Guliang's curious face, Li Yuan joked: "You warn you." Do you dare to say it? Dislike! ”

"Phew!" Xiao Guliang smiled, "No wonder others say you're the one." You're a skinless and faceless person. ”

"Huh."

"Hey!" Xiao Guliang looked left and right, and cautiously advised, "Talk less when we have a meeting later." ”

β€œοΌŸβ€ Li Yuan pondered for a moment, and he smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I just focus on participating." Here, I'm going to be a good student. ”

"That's for the best. And ......" Xiao Guliang slurred for a while, "and...... That's how it all came. It's good that you understand. ”

……

This little lonely cold is still relatively kind in his heart, and he reminded him a little bit. But Li Yuan really didn't understand. He also thought that this was telling himself not to speak nonsense, not to steal the limelight from those old artists.

Anyway, I didn't want to be in the limelight. Isn't it just to listen more and talk less?

There were quite a few people attending this forum, 50 to 60 people. The venue is the large conference room of the hotel. In the center of the conference room, a large conference table in the shape of an oval was arranged.

Finding that there was no sign with his name written on the big conference table, Li Yuan honestly found a corner and sat down.

There is indeed a supply of tea here, but there are no melon seeds, bad reviews!

After a few sips of high crushing, the audience finally gave a standing ovation and welcomed several leading comrades inside......

"Dear veteran comrades and friends of the cultural circles, it is a great pleasure to participate in this symposium with you. In accordance with the requirements of the central spiritual civilization, we ......"

The person presiding over the meeting was a chubby leader, although he said some official clichΓ©s, but he gave people the feeling of a spring breeze. When he finished, then the second leader, then the third, and then the fourth......

In meetings like this, talking this nonsense is some kind of fixed procedure. In fact, it doesn't matter what you say, the key is to let all the leaders appear on the stage and show a very important attitude.

Finally waited until the nonsense was finished, and Li Yuan was already drowsy from listening. And the leader named Director Meng said with a smile: "I gathered the comrades together today just to let everyone speak freely. Now the domestic film and television industry is developing rapidly, and the future is bright. Of course, there are some problems that have arisen to a greater or lesser extent. That's why I want everyone to work together and contribute to us. Can you say anything? There are no rules and regulations here today. Hahaha......"

Director Meng decided that the theme of today's symposium was the theme.

If you really want to talk about it, it's one thing to go on vacation and relax, and it's another thing to discuss some serious things.

Regarding this literary symposium, Director Meng, of course they won't be full, it is impossible to scold Li Yuan just for the sake of scolding? Make such a big scene? The main reason is the reform of film and television.

Needless to say, the importance of developing a cultural industry with the film and television industry as the core is needless to say. What enriches the entertainment life of the masses, strengthens the construction of spiritual civilization, creates a Chinese business card, and so on.

There is nothing wrong with these statements. But for the cultural authorities and the leaders in charge of Director Meng, the most important thing is - economic interests!

That's right! Indeed it is! Although cultural people are ashamed to talk about money, as an industry, economic interests represent vitality! It represents the political interests that can be grasped.

Take the film industry as an example!

In the early 80s, the domestic GDP was almost around 400 billion soft sister coins. And the annual box office is generally between 2.5 billion and 3 billion! It accounts for about 6 or 7 thousandths of GDP!

Any idea what this concept is? The profits and taxes received by the state every year are only more than 100 billion, and more than 1 billion profits and taxes can be paid by selling movie tickets? More than 1%. It also surpasses most state-owned enterprises and cities, and even exceeds some backward inland provinces?

It is precisely because the film industry is a big profit and tax payer that governments at all levels will attach great importance to it. And those old artists also enjoy some over-spec treatment!

In other words, in the later celebrity traffic, they did make a lot of money, but the treatment was far inferior to those old artists. That's why in the old days, all these old artists were money printers!

However, by the beginning of the 90s, the country's GDP had exceeded 4 trillion. A tenfold increase? The annual box office is still 2.5 billion to 3 billion? Not a little bit of growth at all?

Tell me, will the competent departments and competent leaders not be in a hurry?

Therefore, at this time, in fact, a radical reform is being brewed. Wait until next year, the separation of production and broadcasting began, the box office sharing system began to be implemented, and the Hollywood blockbuster was introduced for the first time.

Immediately afterwards, the four major film groups were merged and reorganized. However, the most famous is China Film Group.

This was followed by the liberalization of private film distribution and the establishment of private cinemas and cinemas.

At present, individuals in China are not allowed to open movie theaters. Including the movie theater in Jinyuan Square, the management power is in the hands of the Beijing Cultural Bureau. In other words, Li Yuan is only allowed to invest money, and what movies are released has nothing to do with them.

To be more precise, it is called a big wrong!

And with that, private film and television companies, entertainment companies, and media companies are allowed......

But even if there are so many reforms. By the turn of the century, the domestic GDP had reached more than 10 trillion soft sister coins, but the total annual box office almost fell below 1 billion?

It will be until 0202, when the domestic GDP will exceed 100 trillion, and the total annual box office will also be close to 1 trillion, and it will finally recover to 1%.

However, at that time, because of the profit and tax reform, the tax revenue at the box office was only a little more than 5%. Compared to the current half, the country's tax revenue is almost negligible. It's better to go directly to those tax evasion celebrities to fine.

As a joke, if in a few decades, profits and taxes are like what they are now, will there still be room for piracy? It's been encircled and suppressed a long time ago, so you can't even find a resource!

Of course, there are objective reasons for this low tide period in the film and television industry. In fact, the movie-watching group is still there, but they don't contribute to the box office at all, and they all watch pirated copies.

But that's all in the future. Back to the present, we are at a critical time for reform. Perhaps as soon as an unexpected factor stimulates it, unpredictable changes will occur......

It can be seen from this that a literary and artistic symposium like today's is both important and unimportant.

Obviously, the authorities have discussed this kind of radical change in policy guidelines for a long time, and there are even a lot of pre-plans. It's just an opportunity to find an opportunity and make an official announcement.

As for finding those old artists? That's also an attitude, it seems to take them very seriously!

Of course, if there are some good suggestions, Director Meng will still try to listen to them; If it's those suggestions that don't rely on three or four? Anyway, it's good that you're talking about it! Retreat! That's nothing more than that.

Oh! I almost forgot, and I found you a big toy called Brother Yuan. You can scold him openly, which is a kind of welfare to take care of your old comrades!

……

At this time, Li Yuan didn't know that he had actually become a big toy? That's why I'm still hiding in the corner and drinking high crushes.

With the beginning of a free discussion. The first to speak was a very old, old artist. Among these old artists, this one is also the kind of high morality.

And then...... Turning over and over and saying a whole bunch of nonsense, and it's stinky, long, and endless? was so anxious that Li Yuan almost didn't hold back his urine.

But old-timers! No matter what, you have to hold back! Finally, when he finished speaking, the audience suddenly burst into warm applause! It's not that Li Yuan wants to maliciously guess others? He vaguely felt the true meaning of the applause - it was finally over!

Replace the next one!

The same bunch of nonsense singing praises of virtue. Anyway, the prospect is bright, the road is tortuous, and our career will get better and better!

Sitting in the corner, Li Yuan took another boring sip of high crush. I knew it was all this kind of, who would come over and waste time? I thought you would discuss art, even if it's a performance art, at least it won't be so boring.

Listening to the nagging above, Li Yuan really couldn't help but doze off. Luckily, this is the corner, and no one should notice you...... Right?

Lowering his head, Li Yuan found a more comfortable posture and prepared to go to Zhou Gong to discuss art.

However, at this moment, I suddenly heard it say: "...... Recently, I heard that there is a program called "Wild Springs Cinema" on the TV station, and there are many viewers who like it, including my own family. But I found a problem, why are there no excellent domestic films? Here, I'm not talking about admiring foreign countries, but for the domestic film and television industry, there should be some support and protection, right? Another thing is also very strange. Although this is on TV, this is the movie, right? Did they get approved for the introduction of films? Can you please give us an explanation? ”

Li Yuan immediately came to his senses, why did he suddenly discuss his own Yequan Theater?
