Chapter 829: Crazy Enough
September.
Xu Jia appeared at the airport in Toronto.
Waiting at the gate of the airport was Yang Mi and his party, in addition to the members of the crew of "Baby", there were also the main creators of the crew of "Evil Does Not Prevail over Justice", including Zhang Guoshi.
It can be said that the entire Huaxia crew of the film festival came together to welcome Xu Jia.
"This treatment is a bit too grand, I'm really flattered." Xu Jia said with a smile.
He first stepped forward and gave Da Mimi a hug, no longer avoiding the relationship between the two, and then greeted Jiang Wen, Zhang Yi and others one by one.
For Xu Jia and Yang Mi's intimacy, several people are not surprised.
This handsome man and beautiful woman get together every day, if they don't make a little spark, it would be strange, not to mention that the scandal between Xu Jia and Yang Mi is not a day or two.
But anyone who is familiar with the two of them, who can't see the clues.
"Where is this, if you want me to say, you should go directly from the entire red carpet of the airport to the hotel, and let those buns see the nature of our Chinese tyrants." Jiang Wen teased indifferently.
In the filming of "Evil Does Not Prevail", this guy ate Xu Jia a lot, and he wanted to take advantage of it verbally whenever he had the opportunity.
"That is, by the way, it also let them see the nature of Chinese directors, a movie can use 250,000 feet of film, and investors will cry." Xu Jia replied casually.
The other party has always been proud, and always thinks that it is a good thing that he uses more film, but he uses his own money to shoot investors alive and almost go bankrupt.
Jiang Wen opened his mouth and closed it again, he realized that he was difficult to please in front of Xu Jia.
"Isn't this screening just a trade fair, those who sell films, I suggest you can get contact information from these dealers, but if you sell them, wait, the value given by this film festival is limited." Xu Jia said seriously.
Having said that, it was only "Baby" that was exhibited, and "Evil Does Not Suppress Justice" was not filmed at all when it was submitted to the film festival, that is, Jiang Wen temporarily cut a clip and sent it over, who knows that the organizer really gave it a shortlist.
Na Jiaxing's original plan to win the award was disrupted, and it changed from one movie to two movies with public relations.
"What about "Baby", just wait for the 66th San Sebastian Film Festival, no surprise should be able to win an award, and then consider selling the copyrights of other countries, just in time for the release, Director Jiang is here, just wait for the Venice International Film Festival, you are the same process." Xu Jia explained to everyone.
Since he dares to say that these two movies can win awards, it is basically eight or nine to ten, first of all, the quality of this movie is acceptable, and then when it comes to the time of their award public relations department, the effect is obviously not bad, as long as it is a person, there are seven emotions and six desires, really those judges don't eat the fireworks of the world?
What's more, Jiang Wen also has a bit of incense at the Venice International Film Festival, Xia Yu in "Sunny Days" won the first Venice actor trophy in Asia that year.
"Well, we'll listen to the company's arrangement." Liu Jie nodded, looking like he was listening to and respecting.
If his film can be shortlisted for the international A category, he is already satisfied, and if he can win the award, then he will be even more satisfied, how can he have any opinions.
On the contrary, Jiang Wen looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, but he still didn't speak.
This guy thinks that Xu Jia's operation is very vulgar, and there is no sense of twists and turns in the adventure at all.
In the past, it was all about fighting monsters and upgrading and finally winning the battle against the evil dragon and hugging the beauty, which was called a hearty one, but now, it is a behind-the-scenes operation, and he doesn't need to use his strength at all, the trophy is in hand, and the reality of the red fruit is too special.
Looking at Lao Mouzi on the side, it is called an envy, if he has this kind of special award operation, the status of the whole person in the film industry can be higher, after all, in terms of Lao Mouzi's film output, he wins an award a year, and now it is also amazing.
"Director Zhang, how is the filming of "Changjin Lake" over there?"
Of course, Xu Jia will not forget this, and he is deeply worried about it, the other party can make much more money than Jiang Wen, but he has not met such a suitable partner as him before, so he let him cooperate with Jiaxing as soon as possible.
This "Shadow" Xu Jia said that he had to make billions of dollars in marketing, whether it should be said that in the case of the rising film industry, Zhang Guoshi's good reputation and reputation are tepid, which shows that it is not good for filmmakers to be too simple.
Look at "Man Jianghong" in the previous life, from this movie is the enlightenment, I know what to do in film marketing, a courtyard house is the box office champion of the next Spring Festival.
"It's good, the actors and crew are working very well, and in the film industry system, your Jiaxing is a bit catching up with Hollywood." Zhang Yi said with emotion.
In Huaxia, it can be said that more than 99% of the crew is a grass stage team, and it all depends on the director or producer to support it, which can be seen from the crew, famous directors like Zhang Yi and Jiang Wen have to ask almost everything.
Overseas, directors don't have such a big right, each task is assigned to their respective job leaders, and the whole crew is like a tightly knit industrial production machine.
But in the eyes of Chinese filmmakers, it is too lacking in the beauty of 'creative art'.
It's a pity that this way of 'creating art' is mostly at a loss, that is, if a famous director can withstand it, then it should naturally be eliminated.
""Changjin Lake" wants to win awards, you don't have to think about it, this kind of main theme is not suitable for the soil and water overseas, but it is still okay for you to win another annual box office champion, let's go so far on this literary and artistic road, it is also time to show those juniors the style of their predecessors on the commercial road, don't you say?" Xu Jia said with a smile.
Hearing this, others were shocked, this movie has not been filmed yet, and it is scheduled to be the box office champion this year?
It's too crazy!
But when they thought that the person who said this was Xu Jia, they also recognized it.
If someone in China says that their movies will be successful, and everyone still believes it, then this person can and must be Xu Jia, which is the name of the movies produced by Jiaxing.
"Cheng, if I really want to win a box office champion as I said, then I can work hard for a few more years." Zhang Yi also smiled when he heard this.
According to the agreement between the two parties, if "Changjin Lake" is a big hit, he will also have a part of the box office, and the higher the box office, the higher his remuneration, who said that old artists don't like money.
He makes movies every year at this age, in addition to satisfying his personal creative desires and leaving some money for the children at home, which is also one of the reasons.
But any filmmaker in the circle who has not been seen for a long time suddenly became active again, and eighty percent of them are waiting for rice to cook at home.
