Chapter 302 obviously came to make soy sauce, but it became the focus
The red carpet waiting area of the opening ceremony of the 14th Modu International Film Festival brought together many well-known directors and actors at home and abroad.
The actors and directors have their own circles, and the big directors gather together, surrounded by a group of first- and second-tier actors.
Ma Xiaogang, who was preparing for the new film "1942", also took time out of his busy schedule to come over, and before he came, he had already received a hint from a judge that he might win an award.
Ma Xiaogang, who won the award or not, didn't care, he just wanted to support his country's film festival.
Although he saw Wu Yusen after arriving, it was a bit of an eyesore, after all, he bombarded the Golden Horse Awards before, and basically scolded the directors of Xiangjiang and Baodao who had no friendship with him, including Wu Yusen.
However, Ma Xiaogang is still in a very good mood, and his own shell company sold 300 million yuan before, and he got a large amount of silver for nothing.
With such a large amount of money, Ma Xiaogang is considering replacing the N7256C private jet, and the bargain of 10 million is no longer worthy of his identity.
In addition to Huayang, Wanda and the shell company in which they own shares, Chongqing Film Group spent 100 million yuan to copy a nearly 300-meter-long Chongqing old street one to one in order to get a share of investment.
60 one-to-one real-life antique buildings, when filming the Chongqing bombing scene, one-third of them will be blown up directly!
Except for him Ma Xiaogang, who else has this energy!
And my wife didn't come tonight, I will walk the red carpet with Fan Binbin later, the purple retro dress is quite good-looking, he likes purple.
However, at this time, a somewhat annoying face appeared in front of Ma Xiaogang.
"Director Ma, long time no see, the spirit is not bad. ”
Li Qian's familiar and disgusted standard smiling face came over, and Ma Xiaogang frowned.
It's like you're very familiar, and it's almost like that!
"Director Li doesn't look energetic, his body is so poor at a young age, but he should pay attention. Ma Xiaogang said nonchalantly.
"What Ma Dao said is yes, seeing that Ma Dao is still old and strong when he is old, he is not less than he was back then. Li Qian said with a smile.
Ma Xiaogang's eyes were warm and angry, and Fan Binbin, who was holding his hand, was also a little embarrassed.
However, there was a slight commotion behind him, and some exclamations of foreigners could be heard.
Media tycoons Murdoch and Wendy Deng are here, as well as the two heroines of "Snow and the Secret Fan", Li Binbin and Quan Zixian.
As the world's largest multinational media conglomerate, the controller of News Corp., he is one of the most powerful people in the world in the media field, and his arrival instantly attracted the attention of everyone at the scene.
It is estimated that he was pulled by his wife Wendy Deng, in order to promote "Snowflakes and Secret Fans".
A group of four people walked over under the gaze of everyone, and Li Binbin and Quan Zixian, who were next to them, were also stained.
Fan Binbin saw that this opponent who had just competed on the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival in April was in the limelight, and unconsciously stood up for the bear, making Ma Xiaogang's eyes seem to be attracted by magnets, and the white flowers were a little dazzling, and he almost couldn't take his eyes off.
Wendy Deng led Murdoch to several big directors, and Wendy Deng, who is obviously involved in the film and television industry, is very familiar with the domestic film and television industry.
Li An and Wu Yusen, two big directors who have been in Hollywood, must know that Li An's "Life of Pi" is invested by Twentieth Century Fox.
Murdoch just politely greeted Wu Yusen, a Hollywood loser.
In addition to Li An, he also greeted Cheng Kaige and Ma Xiaogang out of politeness, but when Wendy Deng introduced Li Qian, Murdoch was a little surprised and took the initiative to reach out his hand, "Hello Director Li." ”
Li Qian was a little strange, but he still shook the hand he didn't want to shake, "Hello Mr. Murdoch." ”
Murdoch smiled, "Director Lee's "Jaws" series is very popular in North America, and Fox TV has been on TV for eight million dollars in recent years, and I don't know when the third part will be filmed." ”
Eight million on Fox TV on demand alone?
I'll go, even if it's two together, it's scary enough, and the five major TV networks should add up to 30 million.
Two Chinese-language films, in just three years, sold $30 million on TV on demand, and more than $10 million each.
TV on demand is generally a small head, DVD is the big head, it is estimated that at least it has doubled, and it will break 100 million together.
Although Cheng Long and Li Lianjie have movies with DV and videotape sales of more than 50 million, and even the North American DVD of "Rush Hour 3" in 07 sold more than 80 million.
However, there should only be about five Chinese-language movies with 50 million DVD and videotape sales.
"Jaws", a three-no movie, actually sold this number, Li Qian didn't think about it, maybe it was the reason why horror films have no cultural obstacles.
The laughter of comedy films is different in different countries, and even the laughter between the south and the north of the country are different, but horror movies should be about the same.
However, although "Jaws" is not a bloody horror film, it is also scary through direct and indirect visual effects.
How much did you sell the copyright?
Li Qian can't even remember, it seems that several films are not packed with 10 million US dollars.
It's a big loss.
Secretly feeling pain in his heart, Li Qian still smiled slightly on the surface, "I'm sorry Mr. Murdoch, I don't have the idea of filming the third part for the time being." ”
"That's a shame, if Director Li wants to make a third part, he can work with Fox. Murdoch smiled sadly.
"I'll think about it, thank you, Mr. Murdoch. Li Qian nodded and said with a serious face.
Murdoch and Li Qian, who were chatting, suddenly became the focus of the red carpet waiting area, but Murdoch didn't even talk so much to Li An.
Listening to Murdoch's initiative to cooperate with Li Qian, others were even brighter, especially several foreign directors and actors.
That's Murdoch, the media tycoon Murdoch!
If you don't hurry up, forget it, you still have to think about it, you are a reserved fart!
There are a few foreign directors who can't wait to stand in front of Murdoch at this time, although almost all of them are independent film directors here, but anyone who can mix in mainstream theaters, who will make independent films!
Li Qian felt different eyes on him, and he was also very helpless, just to give Optoelectronics a face to participate in the film festival, but he didn't expect to meet Murdoch, a media tycoon.
Unexpectedly, this media tycoon, who had never met in person, directly invited him to cooperate with Fox, and thus became the focus of the scene.
Obviously, I just came to make soy sauce, and I didn't even bring a soy sauce bottle, and I didn't sign up for the film festival.
......
Not to mention some foreigners, even Li An, who has already made another A-level production with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars, is also a little surprised.
He has heard of "Jaws", when it was first released in North America, it was very popular in the horror film community, although Mi Li Jianren likes the bloody horror film of "Ghost Street", but he also does not refuse the genre of "Jaws".
At first, it seemed that the box office and DVD sales were good, but I didn't expect it to be so high, and the on-demand fee of a Fox TV station was 8 million.
If Li Qian wants to go to Hollywood for development, this is simply the best pass, whether it is DVD, TV on demand, or box office, directors who can sell money, Hollywood welcomes them with open legs.
Cheng Kaige was a little envious, when he filmed "Wuji", he found a Japanese actor, just for the Asian market, and he also had the idea of becoming famous in Hollywood like Zhang Yimou, after all, "Farewell My Concubine" has passed so long.
Wu Yusen is very unhappy, he is a dignified international director, but he is ignored here by Murdoch, and he is not as good as a hairy boy.
However, I can only rest assured that I am not happy, and wait for the "Taiping Wheel", the Oriental Titanic, to run rampant all over the world three years later, earn back its own glory, and return to Hollywood!
Ma Xiaogang was even more unhappy, and these two words were almost written directly on the door of his head.
Compared with the two of them, Ma Xiaogang didn't even touch the door of Hollywood, and although "Night Banquet" sold the North American copyright and made a lot of money, there was no splash at all.
And Li Qian, this seems to be an online movie made earlier, and it sold for 10 million US dollars on TV on demand?
Let the media tycoon Murdoch personally invite!
Although it was just a polite invitation that he happened to encounter, at least Murdoch remembered that there was a person like Li Qian.
In contrast, he just took 300 million yuan for nothing, and it is so much that Chongqing Film Company has to invest 100 million yuan to build and shoot for him, which is nothing.
I didn't have the interest to change to a private jet just now, and Fan Binbin's snow-white chest next to him was not fragrant, and the award he was about to get was not much fun.
Dull!
......
The Murdoch couple came almost stuck, and as soon as they finished speaking, the red carpet ceremony was about to begin, and the couple took the lead on the red carpet.
And some actors wanted to come up and talk to Li Qian and several big directors, but when they thought of their fame, they gave up, and they didn't even have the qualifications to talk to them below the first line.
However, a few foreign actors came to Li Qian to introduce themselves, and they also used broken Chinese.
Of course, only in the "mud hao".
Li Qian also replied hello, and then stopped responding, pretending that there was nothing wrong with not knowing English.
At this time, Li An took the initiative to say, "Hello Director Li, I have watched your movies, and they are very good, in fact, you should have agreed directly just now, and those who sit in Murdoch's position will not be willing to let others take care of themselves." ”
"I have to look at how many pounds and taels I have. ”
Wu Yusen said a strange word, turned around and stepped on the red carpet.
“???”
What is the situation with this person, Li Qian feels that he should not have offended him.
Ma Xiaogang glanced at Li Qian, you pretend again!
When "Red Cliff" was released, Li Qian ridiculed it once, and Ma Xiaogang remembered it clearly.
No, how did I remember Li Qian's affairs so clearly?
I don't know why, Ma Xiaogang especially hates Li Qian's smile and innocent expression, both of which are annoying.
Li Qian shrugged, it didn't matter, he smiled, "I really didn't plan to start the third part of "Jaws", and I had a lot of things on my hands." ”
"Is Director Li's "I Am Not the God of Medicine" finished?" Li An was noncommittal.
"It's just been completed, and it's time to release it soon. Li Qian said.
"I'm looking forward to it. Li An smiled, politely for a while, and also stepped on the red carpet.
"Hmph, it's really serious, Murdoch is just polite. ”
Ma Xiaogang snorted lightly with a little disdain, and walked on the red carpet with Fan Binbin in his arms.
are all gone, and Li Qian and Cheng Kaige are left.
"Director Cheng, please?"
"Then I'll go over and wait for Director Li first. Brother Cheng Kai said with a smile, becoming more and more like an old cadre.
Li Qian didn't rush to leave, he thought about it.
After "Jaws" was released in North America before, Colombia approached Du Yang several times and wanted to make a third part as soon as possible.
But Li Qian didn't care, how could he have that kung fu.
Companies such as Fox, Disney, Warner, and even the Lions have asked about the overseas rights of the third part of Jaws, but they have not responded to them.
But looking at it now, the North American data is unexpectedly good, and I haven't cared about it.
It seems that Du Yang should be asked to investigate the audience's expectation of the third part of "Jaws", if many people want to watch it, find someone to shoot it.
