You made me a superstar

Chapter 471 Premiere in Those Years
"What does "Our Country" say? Has the higher-ups agreed?"

"We have to wait a little bit."

"President Feng, how long do we have to wait? Didn't it mean that when no movie is released on October [-]st, the relevant departments will come and beg us to do it? It's not that this year's November, Hollywood has a very strong impact on China's movies, which will affect The entire market of domestic films, why didn’t you follow what you said, and the film "Sniper Phone Booth" was even increased!"

"Director Zhao, calm down a little bit"

"I am calm now, but the capital behind it is not calm anymore. After the release of "Sniper Phone Booth", they called me almost every few minutes. Look, it is the early morning of October 30, and it is already [-] Multiple phone calls, lo and behold, here it comes again..."

"This matter has to be negotiated. Everything is based on the common interests of our association. Director Zhao, you must have team spirit..."

"Is the team spirit going to sacrifice me? I thought it was not good to speak against the relevant departments before!"

"It's not with the relevant departments, it's with An Xiao..."

"It's the same thing, it's all now, what did Xu Kangnian say now? He didn't even fart, how smart he is, he is lying to us and hopes that we can beat An Xiao down, but at the same time he is afraid of the people behind An Xiao, who dare not understand Come on, we're all cannon fodder!"

"You calm down!"

"How can I stay calm? Damn it, I heard that "Our Country" won't be released in October, and maybe it will be scheduled until next year... How can you calm me down!"

"..."

On the surface, the China Film Association is united.

But this unity is based on interests and capital.

When both of them were damaged to a certain extent, the originally united association began to show signs of falling apart.

In Feng Minrui's office, Zhao Fang, with bloodshot eyes, stood in front of Feng Minrui. He was so excited that he was out of breath, and his whole body trembled like an epileptic patient.

As a five-generation director who has survived for many years and finally managed to make it to the top, the film "Our Country" has devoted almost all of Zhao Fang's efforts, and he hoped that the film would be released on October [-]st. .

half a month ago.

He was called to this office by Feng Minrui.

Feng Minrui chatted with him about family life, the future, the fifth generation of directors, and the new generation of sixth generation directors.

At first he was said to be a little excited, but as we chatted, we talked about the current situation of the Chinese film industry, Zhou Yang, this "rat shit", and said that Zhou Yang, this mouse shit, was ambitious, and sooner or later, the Chinese movie circle would be overwhelmed. The commotion has been turned upside down, and by then, these old people will have no place to stay in China.

Zhao Fang was filled with a sense of righteous indignation, especially when he thought of the cancellation of the "authorization channel" of the relevant departments, he couldn't help but also began to feel a sense of crisis.

However, he never dreamed that Feng Minrui's next words would be so frightening. In order to suppress Zhou Yang, and to make An Xiao, a new leader who came to power, stumble, he actually asked him to delay "Our Country" release...

He was shocked at the time, so naturally he refused immediately.

Isn't this against the relevant departments?

Seeing the refusal, Feng Minrui was not surprised, but patiently started ideological work with Zhao Fang.

After talking about his retirement, Zhao Fang, the director of the Five Dynasties, promised to support him in all aspects. At the same time, in order to give him a reassurance, he explained to him that not only his movies were delayed,

Shen Jinsong's "Sword God" and Xiao Bin's police movie "Darkness Lurking" are all delaying the release of films that are preparing to fight against Hollywood in the second half of the year. Promise to delay it by one day at most. On October [-], the relevant department will send someone to talk to them about the release.

After chatting for a whole morning, Zhao Fang actually believed it, and even did so...

But no one could have imagined that the movie released on October [-] exceeded everyone's expectations.

The weather in the early morning is a little chilly.

The office became silent.

Feng Minrui saw Zhao Fang who slapped the table for fear and uttered a few foul words, his face turned slightly chilly, but the chill disappeared in an instant and turned into a gentle smile.

"Don't worry, today is for this purpose, so everyone came here to have a meeting together... We, the older generation, are obvious to all of us in the film industry. At most, I will put aside my old face and talk to An Xiao about it." one and..."

Zhao Fang's lips moved.

But in the end it didn't say anything.

The anger is gone, and I know that the matter has come to an end, it is useless to get angry now, the most urgent thing is how to solve this matter.

At four o'clock in the morning, another person came to the office.

Shen Jinsong came over, he followed Zhao Fang and nodded, then glanced at Feng Minrui, but sat on the chair next to him without saying a word, lighting a cigarette and smoking by himself.

"Not smooth?"

"How did it go well? An Xiao is so arrogant now, and Lao Cao and I used to sit on the bench..." Feng Minrui also saw a little resentment in Shen Jinsong's heart: "Now it's clear that we are dispensable We don’t even show the air, the human script... An attitude of coming if you like, and getting out if you don’t come, I’ve never been so arrogant in my life..."

The atmosphere in the office became quiet again.

Just at this time, Cao Bangguo and Jiang Ge pushed the door in. After saying hello to everyone, Cao Bangguo moved a stool and sat on the corner of the wall.

Django lowered his head slightly from the beginning to the end. Although he is the vice president, everyone present is his elders. He has always had little right to speak in such office meetings.

"Damn it! I don't believe Zhou Yang can be so powerful. He's a fart! I don't believe that every movie of his is popular. Is he a god or a ghost? Damn it!"

Not long after Cao Bangguo walked over, Chen Kai's cursing voice came from outside the office.

He came with Zhou Yilin, obviously with anger on his face...

Zhou Yilin listened, laughing, and echoing a few words. When the two entered, the entire meeting room began to feel extremely crowded and stuffy.

"When everyone is here, let's simply hold a meeting."

"Ah."

....................................

That night, many people in the Chinese movie circle were suffering from insomnia.

But Zhou Yang was not included.

Zhou Yang had a good sleep in the villa. After waking up, he had a leisurely breakfast and received a call from Guan Tong.

Guan Tong invited him to Xingyang Cinemas to watch the premiere of the movie "The Youth We Chased Together in Those Years".

For this "The Youth We Chased Together in Those Years", the industry generally has a view that it is not too much expected, and it is unlikely to become a hit, but it is steady and progressing.

The audience who watch the movie are actually more Buddhist...

""Sniper Phone Booth" grossed 500 million yesterday..."

"Because of the addition of a "Sniper Booth" film, the box office figures of "Jaws" and "Men in Black" both declined, but "Jaws" remained at 4000 million, and "Men in Black" was 1000 million. , as a film that has been released for 25 days, it is really amazing to have such box office data..."

"The general public's evaluation of the movie "The Youth We Chased Together in Those Years" was 300 million at the premiere. Youth movies, under the siege of so many blockbuster movies, can get more than 1000 million at the box office at the premiere. It's pretty good, and the director is quite satisfied with this premiere, after all, due to the publicity issue on the [-]th, the pre-sale tickets are quite ordinary in all aspects..."

"Liu Can and Director Liu's execution is very strong. The crew of "Crazy Stone" has already begun to look for actors in the circle. Director Zhang Changsheng's "Laughing Flowers All the Way" is more efficient than Director Liu Can and Liu. People, the filming has already started, he just sent me a progress report, saying that the filming of this film will be completed in November, and the project "Eavesdropping" has just been filed..."

In the car, Xu Mei told Zhou Yang some movie information related to her company, and nodded while listening: "How about Song Qianqian's new album?"

"The new album "The Farthest Distance" is currently being warmed up. Song Qianqian herself intends to give fans a surprise on October [-]th, but even so, this album has already been popular among the major post bars and fan groups. It has been spread that Qdog Music, Kuwo Music, and Sodu Music’s online music segment have already prepared advertising spots on October [-]th, and they will be released on the entire Internet at that time. The physical album is relatively conservative, after all, now The physical industry is getting more and more depressed, this time only [-] copies of the physical album have been prepared..."

"Oh."

Zhou Yang nodded.

Then he leaned back on his seat and closed his eyes to meditate. The company has gradually started to get on the right track, and everything is fine.

At this moment, Xu Mei received a call.

After answering the phone, Xu Mei hesitated for a moment, and then looked at Zhou Yang: "The Taiwan Golden Horse Awards are planning to come over to send us an invitation letter in person, and they even gave us a show before..."

"Didn't we go there, and he sent us an invitation again? How do we send it now?"

"I guess I'm under pressure...and this time, the invitation letter seems to be sent by Django..."

"Django? What does this have to do with Django?"

"It should be Feng Minrui, Director Feng's compromise. Feng Minrui is from Taiwan, and has always maintained a good relationship with the Golden Horse Awards..."

"Oh."

"Shall we go?"

"No, these awards don't have any real meaning to me..."

"The influence of the Golden Horse Awards in China is quite large. Director Feng Kaifeng has been struggling recently. His "Jinyiwei" is also in the ranks of invitations..."

Zhou Yang fell into a long silence after listening.

Some awards don't have any real meaning to him now, but they mean a lot to Feng Kai and other people in the company.

Feng Kai hasn't won any substantive awards since "Mine Bottom"...

Just when Zhou Yang was silent, Xu Mei's phone rang again. After answering the phone, Xu Mei looked at Zhou Yang: "The Golden Horse Awards invited you to be the award presenter..."

Zhou Yang didn't answer Xu Mei's words, but continued to close his eyes and meditate.

The car soon arrived at Xingyang Cinemas.

He opened his eyes, and then opened the car door under the expectation of countless reporters and fans.

"Tell Director Feng that during the time when the Golden Horse Awards were presented, I happened to be filming "Spider-Man". If it's convenient, let him represent "Infernal Affairs" and "Jin Yiwei" at the Golden Horse Awards. I won't go... ..."

Zhou Yang looked at the crowded Xingyang Cinemas, Guan Tong who had been waiting for a long time in the distance, and the awed eyes of all the young actors, with a faint smile on his face.
