423 is suspending some of its collaborations with Hollywood

The first Annual Film Awards officially ended, and it can be said that all the awards met everyone's normal expectations, although there were some accidents, but they were not much out of everyone's imagination.

The whole process can be said to be unprecedented in Asia, and it has also received global attention. After all, there is no big entertainment news in the world during this time period in January, and the annual movie award can be said to be the most concerned entertainment industry event in the world at this time.

After the awards, it was the Vanity Fair Cocktail Party, which was a big reception attended by thousands of people from the Asian film industry.

Media reporters are also eating the last wave of traffic from the film awards, and they have made every effort to interview the winners and the people who have not won the award but are the most famous.

He Fang took a group of domestic filmmakers to enthusiastically push glasses and exchange glasses with filmmakers from various countries at the cocktail party, so enthusiastic. These international filmmakers have earned honors and bonuses, so I am very grateful to the organizing committee and Chinese filmmakers.

The prize money of a movie is tens of millions at every turn, which greatly relieves the cost pressure of some films, and allows some movies to bring both honor and profit.

The film award was successful, but it was precisely because of this success that Chinese films, and where they were officially pushed to the angry end of Americans, why?

Because the film awards are so successful, so successful that they threaten the control of cultural discourse in the United States.

The conservative side reacted violently, and the open-minded side did not take this seriously, they still believed that the current glory of the empire was very bright, and one or two slightly successful film awards did not affect the status of the empire.

It's normal for them to have this kind of thought, just like Chang'an City in the prosperous Kaiyuan era before the Anshi Rebellion, who would have thought that the empire had reached the point of precariousness? Everyone feels like they're in control.

Even Tang Xuanzong thought that no one understood Ansan's loyalty to the Tang Dynasty better than him, so Anshan would give Tang Xuanzong whatever he wanted. Not only Tang Xuanzong thought so, but the prime minister at the time, Li Linfu, also thought that he could take Ansan at any time.

The entire Tang Empire, from the emperor to the temple, was in an extremely confident mood and believed that all the problems of the empire could be easily handled, and this extreme self-confidence gave Tang Xuanzong a taste of what it means to go from prosperity to decline. The Tang Dynasty has reached its peak in his hands, and it has also begun to decline from his hands.

The current United States is like the old age of Tang Xuanzong, before the Anshi Rebellion, everything seemed to be prosperous, but the good order at the beginning of the empire had decayed and collapsed.

But many in the empire do not see these problems, and they are still obsessed with prosperity. Therefore, although some people in the United States are vigilant every day, they are criticizing people and things about China. However, the mainstream in the United States still believes that everything is controllable, and from top to bottom there is a state of extreme confidence and that all problems can be handled with ease.

Therefore, when some American media and commentators lashed out at He Fang and the annual film award in the European and American media on February 1, all Asian filmmakers rebuked it, believing that some American critics were too nervous and overbearing.

Coupled with the large number of 'ridicule' and 'criticism' of the water army in the international media, this has caused some of the individual media and comments to fall into 'injustice', so that their netizens who originally wanted to support these media and individuals have become 'rational', there is no need to jump up and scold others for not buying a car, not stealing the limelight of your family, and threatening your family's status in society......

This seems to be very unpatterned, very unqualified, and very unambitious......

Playing moral kidnapping, who wouldn't be like that.

When a large number of such remarks hit back at the actions of certain individuals, the entire Internet has shifted the direction of opinion.

In fact, this was expected by the company's publicity department a long time ago, and he had already made a plan for the company's publicity department, and from which aspects others would attack the film awards.

It is nothing more than using public opinion such as the theory of decline, threat, destruction of order, and ambition to target the film awards, so the propaganda team of Tuanhuo Culture must also deal with it from these aspects.

When He Fang was blocked by reporters early in the morning of February 1 and asked what He Fang thought of the criticism of the film awards in the United States and the West, he had already had a case.

"Some people say that the Fengyun Award is a threat to the American and Western film awards, I don't understand where the threat is, usually the threat of a film award is nothing more than an ideological threat and a threat to the global status of the film award.

However, at the beginning of its establishment, the Fengyun Award said that we should put aside ideology, that is to say, we don't talk about the advantages and disadvantages of the system, we only talk about the quality of the movie. Moreover, it is not up to me to decide who wins or who doesn't, it is up to tens of thousands of judges and hundreds of thousands of fans to decide.

Moreover, which film in this film award threatens the ideology of the United States and the West? No, none of them are anti-American and Western, right? Therefore, there is no ideological threat to the United States and the West.

So is there a threat to the status of the film awards? I don't think so. Why? Because the Storm Award is only for Asia. There are many super-large and super-status film awards in the United States and the West for the world, such as the three major film festivals, such as the Oscars. Could it be that the Fengyun Awards threaten the three major film awards? Threat to the Oscars? Do you believe it? ”

"So, you mean that the Fengyun Award is neither threatening, nor ambitious, nor disrupting order?" The journalist asked.

"Of course, I don't understand where to see the threat and the ambition. And what was destroyed. He replied.

"Then why do you think they are commenting on the Awards?"

"Then I don't know, maybe some people are overbearing and can't see others holding film awards, maybe they just want the world to have a movie award for their family." He Fang shrugged.

"I saw an article in the Washington Observer saying that this is the ulterior motive of Chinese films, and that Chinese films are taking advantage of Asian attention. What do you think about this? The reporter asked.

"Haha, is the Fengyun Award making profits for Chinese films? What profit have we made? Take this year's Film Awards as an example, 90% of the nominated films are non-Chinese films, and 90% of the award-winning films are non-Chinese films. A few awards won a Chinese film for a Best Actor, what profit?

Besides, 70% of all the proceeds of the Fengyun Award have been given to the nominees and winners, as well as the judges and fans, and we have not made any economic benefits.

If we talk about profit, we are profiting for Asian films, not Chinese films alone. Does that mean we are not allowed to profit from Asian films? Should Asian films have such film awards? ”

The rhetorical question of He Fang made the reporter shrug his shoulders.

"Jesse Watters, the host of Fox News, said you're the most eloquent director and can always say black to white. What do you think of Jesse's words? The reporter asked.

"I don't think much of it, there are always some people in this world: you reason with him, he talks to you about the law, you talk to him about the law, he talks to you about morality, you talk to him about morality, he plays scoundrels with you. Someone like Jesse, who is obviously unable to reason, will play a hooligan to pour dirty water on me, which means that I will say black into white, and then my words will not be trusted, and finally achieve his goal.

In fact, he couldn't be reasonable, and then he threw dirty water on me and labeled me. He created a clever and eloquent image for me, reversed black and white, and then made everyone not believe me, and he felt that to bring me down was to shape the facts in the direction he envisioned. ”

The "......" reporter was speechless, and sure enough, he was good at arguing.

Of course, he also had to admit that what He Fang said was the truth, and he said it very well.

……

Why do they find him to be good at debating? It is because He Fang has exposed their lies with facts again and again, so some people in the West do not like He Fang, and they do not like people who tell the truth for a group of people who are liars.

Don't think that a back-and-forth fight with the United States and the West in public opinion is considered a victory, but in fact this is not the case.

No, some famous directors and actors in China have been invited to the Beauty and Death Hall to be guests, in the name of cultural exchange, in fact, we must unify the thinking of the Chinese film industry, and we can't let them dance with where they want to go and destroy the existing order of international film awards.

This is what some filmmakers in the circle told He Fang, this is a warning from the Beauty Death Museum.

Of course, in Guangzhou, in the south, the Meilin Museum also conducted a cultural exchange with the southern media, and the purpose was obvious, and the southern media were needed to do something.

All these were known in three days, and alas, they were all screens, leaking everywhere.

However, He Fang doesn't want to pay attention to it, what's the matter with love, anyway, it's not going to be easy to get along for two years, the sky will change this year, and the year after tomorrow will change greatly, and He Fang doesn't want to pretend anymore.

If you are tired, you will rush head-on.

Although it is not ready for Chinese films, how can there be any well-prepared confrontation? As I said earlier, the enemy won't let you get ready.

On February 7th, the New Year, on February 5th, He Fang was called to the capital, and then went to meet some leaders.

Why is this happening? Not yet......

Of course, Ho's opinion is very resolute, just two points.

First, the film awards will continue to be held, and they will not be stopped because of threats from others.

The second is that the enemy will not let you be ready to clean up again, not prepared well, ready for a showdown at any time.

Moreover, He Fang also predicted a wave of future trends in the United States, which gave everyone a wake-up call.

Of course, I don't know if it can play a role, but as a traverser, he should be vaguely reminded that he did it.

……

He didn't stay long in the capital, he went on February 5 and returned on February 6. He hasn't had a good Spring Festival with his family for a long time, and there have always been movies scheduled for the Spring Festival before, but this time there was none.

After all these busy years and such a thick foundation, it's time to take your time. Because he couldn't do anything else all at once, the resistance was too great, and he could only grind his kung fu.

As for making movies, take your time and don't force it.

In 2016, He Fang planned two films, one is "Operation Red Sea", which is expected to start filming in March, and the other is "The Wandering Earth 1", which is expected to start filming in September.

Both are blockbusters, one military and the other is science fiction, which is the main film in recent years.

Of course, if he really wants to keep himself busy, there's still a lot to shoot.

For example, in the "Journey to the West" series, the company has already made a script for making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, but he has never wanted to shoot it.

Another example is the "Mermaid" series, the company has also developed the second part, and it is okay if you want to do it.

Another example is the "Edge of Tomorrow" series, the "White Snake" series, and the "Alita" series......

In addition to these series, there are also many good scripts discovered and accumulated by the company, including bought IP, screenwriting works received, and scripts written by the company itself.

For example, the movies of the Xianxia fantasy series, this is still very promising, and He Fang's "White Snake" is strictly the leader.

But after all, it is not really the Xianxia fantasy movie on the Internet, if a story is developed in so many IPs, it is estimated that it will really drive the development of this series.

So who is also thinking about whether to shoot such a one? The key is which story to choose?

Xianxia fantasy stories need to be simple and clear to make movies so that global audiences can be optimistic, how to let global audiences quickly understand the concepts of Chinese culture in the Xianxia system?

Just as he was pondering these questions during the Chinese New Year, he received a call from Hollywood, from Kevin Tessohara, the president of Warne.

"Ho, Happy New Year!" Kevin is of Japanese descent, so he knows it's Chinese New Year.

"Thank you, Kevin, and Happy New Year to you."

"Ha, okay. By the way, there's something I need to talk to you about. ”

"What's the matter?"

"It's about our film collaboration." Kevin said solemnly on the phone.

"Uh-huh, you say."

"Our cooperation with you at Warner may be on hold."

"Why?"

"The general election, this time is very fierce, both sides will make a fuss about your country. So...... You know, a lot of the cooperation with you guys will be affected. But don't worry, just wait for the dust to settle. Kevin said.

"......" He Fang smiled bitterly, he didn't expect it to come so quickly, he thought it would be in 2018. It looks like he's crossed over, and something might have become more prominent.

"Okay, then I'm looking forward to our cooperation next year, and hopefully it's just a temporary storm."

"Rest assured, no matter who goes up, it won't ruin the situation, it's just the need for the election." Kevin was optimistic on the phone.

In fact, there is no optimism at all, this is the beginning of the slide towards confrontation.

He Fang even wondered if he could change the result? But when he thought about it, he felt that the original result might have been better, and if the other one had come up, it might have been more troublesome to continue to soft the knife.

It is better to come up with a hard knife, which makes many people abandon their illusions.

No wonder everyone called him Jianguo.

Recently, my thoughts have been a bit messy, I want to close a good ending, and I want to water the plot until the end of the month, complete this month's KPI and earn a full attendance award, so ...... On the contrary, the more I write, the more messy it becomes.

Okay, it's over, everyone's forgiveness.
