263 Want to test with a tender mold? What can be a good man?
As soon as the crew of "The Origin of the White Snake" arrived at the hotel, the waiter trotted over to open the door and shouted 'Happy New Year, Wishing you prosperity', He Fang smiled and immediately gave a red envelope. At this time, Wang Jing, Tsui Hark, Stephen Chow, Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and other famous directors and actors greeted him and gave New Year's greetings to He Fang.
"Wow, thank you so much, I didn't expect everyone to be there." He Fang hugged his fist to everyone after greeting everyone after the New Year.
"Haha, what to say thank you, Chinese don't have to go to visit relatives and friends during the New Year, this is to come and go to relatives, go, go, go, you go to check in first, and then everyone will get together on the third floor and chat." It's still Jackie Chan who is the best at talking, after all, he is also a lot more mixed in the mainland.
"Okay, seniors, then you wait on the third floor for a while, and I'll come over in twenty minutes." He Fang said with a smile.
"Okay, you go get busy."
After greeting everyone, they went to check in, went to the room, put down their luggage, took a shower, changed their clothes, and then went downstairs.
As for Fan Bingbing, they just changed their clothes and made up their makeup, and it was too late to take a shower, because once a woman took off her makeup and touched up her makeup, it would not take more than an hour to finish.
A hall on the third floor was wrapped, and the waiter pushed the door open, and there were no less than 100 people sitting inside.
Or filmmakers who still have a good impression of the mainland, or want to make money in the mainland, have come.
"Director He, Happy New Year." Suddenly, the audience shouted in unison and clenched their fists.
He Fang was taken aback, and suddenly felt like he was representing the boss of the mainland who came to meet with Hong Kong insiders.
"Everyone, happy new year, you are too polite, before the eldest brother said that this is the Chinese New Year to come to the family and friends to pay a New Year's greeting, but your momentum is like going to a village in Guangdong, and all the people of a family are here. Lively, I loved it, haha......"
"Come, come, come, Director He, sit here, sit here." Jackie Chan pulled whoever he went to the first place.
"Hey, hey, hey, big brother, although I'm young, I also know that this position is not something I can sit in, no matter age or seniority, I am not qualified, if you want to do this, doesn't it make me not rude, I sit on the side, I sit on the side......"
At He Fang's insistence, he didn't sit in the first place, so he wasn't so stupid.
"Come, Director He, let's do this first, here we welcome Director He to Hong Kong, we Hong Kong filmmakers wish Director He's new film a box office hit, and strive to get a billion dollars at the box office in the world." Zeng Zhiwei stood up and raised his glass and said.
"I wish Director He's new film a big hit, and the global box office is one billion dollars." Everyone drank together, how is this like the gangster movie in "Crazy Boy".
"Ha, thank you, thank you, do it." He Fang raised his glass and dried the wine together with Fan Bingbing and the others next to him.
"Now, who can tell us a few words, okay?" Zeng Zhiwei said loudly.
"Okay."
He Fang shook his head with a wry smile, and then stood up.
"I was really unprepared for this, and I didn't expect to be with you today. I don't know what to say, if I insist on finding a topic, I still have to talk about the development and cooperation of Chinese films. β
"Anyone who knows the mainland knows that mainlanders like to look at problems from the perspective of history and development, and look at many problems from the past and future trends.
"In the past, many people separated Hong Kong films from mainland films, and even in the policies of many countries in the world, mainland films were separated from Hong Kong films. However, I believe that more and more people will classify Hong Kong films, Taiwan provincial films and mainland films under Chinese films, why? Because this thing is irreversible. β
"How exactly do you say irreversible? The first irreversibility is that the subject is irreversible, because Hong Kong will never return to the colonial era, which means that Hong Kong will always be a part of China in the future, that is, Hong Kong films are also part of Chinese films. β
"It's irreversible, it's only going to get deeper and deeper. Although some countries and regions still separate Hong Kong films from mainland films, this is only temporary, at most more than ten or twenty years, and in the eyes of everyone in the future, these will be Chinese films. β
"The second irreversible is the irreversibility of the export of Chinese culture mainly from Chinese mainland. There are two main reasons for this irreversibility, one is that China's 5,000-year-old profound heritage is unique in the world, and such cultural charm cannot be erased by anyone who wants to. Second, with the development and rise of China, there will be three mainstream cultures in the world in the future, one is Western culture, the second is Chinese culture, and the third is other cultures. β
"Therefore, the trend of global audiences accepting Chinese culture is irreversible, and it is irreversible for Chinese culture to go global."
"Some people may be worried, does that mean that Hong Kong film culture will be wiped out in the future, and we will be swallowed up by the mainland? I think those who have this concern do not look at history objectively and do not look at the future from the perspective of development. β
"Hong Kong film culture can't be extinguished, because Hong Kong movies have planted seeds in many audiences, and as long as someone continues to make Hong Kong movies, there will be audiences who will continue to pay. Of course, there has to be a premise for this, that is, you don't play yourself to death, if that's the case, then no one can do anything. β
"Since the future trend is a situation in which mainland films and Hong Kong films bloom together in the context of Chinese films, how to make mainland films and Hong Kong films 1+1>2? Let the two sides cooperate more closely and be more competitive internationally? β
Therefore, there are two problems at present, one is the decline of Hong Kong films, and the other is the problem that mainland film technology, talents and industries cannot keep up with the pace of international film development. If we both work together to solve both of these problems, then we will not lose to Hollywood in the future. β
"In the past, I cooperated with director Wang Jing to solve the decline of Hong Kong films, and used the mainland market to support Hong Kong film development funds. However, in addition to market problems, Hong Kong films also have their own problems, such as remakes, follow-up and piracy, which is a policy that your association has to formulate. β
"There's also the problem of not strictly following the producer-centered production, where you replace the standard with live creation, which will lead to a decrease in the success rate, I won't talk about this much, it's a clichΓ©."
"The last problem is the problem of Hong Kong film talents. How many of the new generation of Hong Kong filmmakers can show their heads in blockbuster movies? Anyway, I haven't seen a few, and there are no talents in the past for a long time, so will you still rely on you old filmmakers to support you ten or twenty years later? β
"That's all I said, I said that I really have the mentality of developing with Hong Kong films to chat and even cooperate with everyone, and when I was at the airport before, I told reporters that the cooperation with director Wang Jing is a good start, but I want to say that not all cooperation will be very successful, if the cooperation is successful, then where am I the God of the West. Therefore, in the next cooperation, we will strive to be as successful as possible, but if there are unsuccessful ones, I hope that some people who read jokes and gloat will not say something weird there. β
In the same way, this is said to everyone, cooperation is a win-win situation, and we also face problems together. If you don't cooperate, please don't hold back, because when Chinese films develop, whether you are involved or not now, you are actually a beneficiary. β
"Well, that's all for now. Everyone, come on, cheers, let us really start a new journey of Chinese films from 2013, so that mainland films and Hong Kong films have reached a new level. Cheers! β
"Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
β¦β¦
He Fang's words are not deafening, but they can be regarded as sincere, really thinking about Chinese movies, at least the words are very beautiful.
As for what will happen in the end, whether Hong Kong movies will continue to decline has nothing to do with where they are.
"Director He, that's a good point, we don't have so many theories as you, nor do we have such profound ideas as you look at problems from both the two aspects of history and development, but I think we recognize the problems and methods you mentioned, and we also feel that this is also beneficial to us. Therefore, I would like to thank Director He for saying so much advice for Hong Kong films under such a difficult situation for Hong Kong films, and for doing practical things to help Hong Kong films. On behalf of Hong Kong filmmakers, I would like to thank Director He. Zeng Zhiwei said.
"Respect for Director He!"
β¦β¦
The next thing is to talk to everyone about the cooperation plan of the movie, and some actors who can speak some Mandarin come to know him, and those who can't speak Mandarin can only simply say hello and then can't talk anymore.
The party ended at half past two in the morning, and Hong Kong filmmakers seem to be accustomed to this rhythm, after all, many filmmakers live in American time, sleeping during the day and busy late at night.
A strange half-breed young model knocked on his door after returning to the room, he looked at it through a cat's eye, and as if he didn't know, he went back to sleep directly.
It's not that he doesn't like this kind of thing, but his crew is here, plus so many peers and paparazzi in Hong Kong are staring, he dares to play? If something happens, it's really a big mess.
Next time, wait until it's convenient for so many people to watch.
As soon as I felt that at half past eight in the morning of the next day, He Fang got up, sat down to light a cigarette and drink a cup of coffee after washing, and then began to watch the box office of the second year of junior high school and the news about "The Origin of the White Snake".
In the second year of junior high school, the mainland box office "The Origin of the White Snake" won 142.53 million, that is, 142 million, and "Thai Embarrassment" won 90.51 million.
The domestic media called "The Origin of the White Snake" and "Thai Embarrassment" a combination of laughter and crying during the Spring Festival, one is laughing and the other is moved to death.
Anyway, now that the crew of "Thai Embarrassment" is flying in domestic publicity, Tian Yusheng will never let go of the popularity, repeatedly shouting how close we are to "The Origin of the White Snake", and how close we are to defeating him.
After watching the box office in the mainland, it was a bit unsatisfactory to see the box office in North America, which is now the first working day in the West, so the box office was almost cut in half, and only got a box office of 6.31 million US dollars.
In addition to North America, the box office in other parts of the world is 17.54 million US dollars, which is not bad, and there is no waist, mainly because the Asian region has supported the box office, and the reputation of "The Origin of the White Snake" has fermented here, and everyone thinks it is good, and it is the second best film and television work of "The Legend of the White Snake" in addition to "The Legend of the New White Lady".
So, the global box office on the second day of the Lunar New Year won $46.47 million, okay.
"Director, you don't open the door for such a beautiful little sister? Is it really Megumi Yanagishita? He Fang just went to the restaurant and sat at the crew's table, and Fan Bingbing teased He Fang.
"Hmm??? What do you mean? "I don't understand.
"What do you mean? The newspapers in Hong Kong have reported that after you returned to your room last night, a young model named Kerry knocked on your door, but you didn't open the door. Look at it, such a good figure, it's still mixed-race, tsk, I'm excited to see it, it's a pity. Fan Bingbing said as he handed a newspaper to He.
"......" He Fang was stunned, so glad that he had a strong sense of prevention, otherwise he would have made headlines.
Of course, in addition to the photo of the young model knocking on the door of the room on the front page of the entertainment, there is also the transcript of his speech at the party last night, which was published in full text, and someone recorded it last night, is it really special...... It's hard to prevent it, there are people in the entertainment industry who help the paparazzi do things.
"I'm a good man, I won't pay attention to this kind of mess, hurry up and have breakfast, I'm busy today." He Fang threw the newspaper and said very pretendedly.
"Well, it's really a good man......" Fan Bingbing looked at He Fang meaningfully, and then ate breakfast by himself.
