Entertainment, I just like making movies

Chapter 365 The eve of the war!

The small meeting lasted for two hours.

Everyone spoke freely and provided many constructive suggestions.

There are five of them, which are absolute killers for the entertainment industry and the entire industry.

First: Increase the review of film and television scripts, especially in terms of social core values.

Second: Increase the review and editing of finished movies and TV series.

Third: There is zero tolerance for artists with bad discipline, and artists who violate the bottom line of principles will not be allowed to appear in front of the camera.

We must resolutely resist those who break the law and are immoral, and we must insist on taking political literacy, moral character, artistic standards, and social evaluation as selection criteria.

Fourth: Those who have incorrect political stances and are alienated from the party and the country will definitely not be employed.

Those who violate laws and regulations and impact the bottom line of social fairness and justice will not be employed; those who violate public order and good customs will not be hired.

Fifth: It is necessary to effectively strengthen the management of employees and prohibit foreign companies from taking control of mainland film and television companies, as well as taking control of movies, TV series, variety shows and other projects.

The five draft suggestions have a very broad scope of attack, covering almost all Chinese-speaking film, television, variety show, and performers.

I just let go of online dramas!

Fang Ziheng didn't mention this, nor did the leaders. Wang Zhongjun and others didn't think of it.

End of the meeting.

The leader told Fang Ziheng and others, remembering to keep it secret first.

Relevant regulations will be formally promulgated after discussions with the higher authorities.

After the photoelectric was released, Mr. Wang Zhongjun lost his temper and shouted that he would be a host tonight and treat everyone to dinner.

Everyone responded positively, and everyone had some questions they didn’t understand and wanted to talk about.

………

A high-end private restaurant.

On the table.

Fang Ziheng was the first to speak, repeating an old saying and calling on everyone to really put their heart into making movies.

"These are all old acquaintances. Brother, let me tell you something from my heart."

“In recent years, apart from a few well-received and popular films, major film and television companies have produced mostly bad films that are not worth mentioning.

These bad movies all have similar patterns: they are bluffing, low-cost, and have vulgar selling points.

Earlier, because there were no competitors, the Chinese-language market was dominated by established film and television companies, which led to many bad films making a lot of money using this model! "

As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Changtian's expressions suddenly became unhappy.

Fang Ziheng's words were so direct that he almost didn't name the two of them.

When it comes to the rate of bad movies and the rate of following trends, among the five companies present, Huayi and Guangxing produce the most.

Their company controls production and distributes other people's films, and they always accept producers who come to seek distribution.

The two of them looked awkward, and they took the wine and drank it silently!

Fang Ziheng stopped, drank a glass, and spoke again: "Whether you follow the trend or plagiarize, it doesn't really matter!"

"The problem is that we have to produce movies of a high quality. If you think about it carefully, if you make a bad movie and you can sell it well, then how do people who are serious about making movies feel? Isn't it unfair and cruel to these people?

I believe that the original intention of those who engage in movies is not just to make money! "

"We are the leader in the industry and control all the related businesses of a movie's production and distribution. As long as we tighten some control and those below can't mess up even if they want to, the rate of bad movies will naturally be greatly reduced!!"

"and!"

Having said this, Fang Ziheng looked at a few people and suddenly said in a more serious tone: "Making bad movies to make money is a short-sighted behavior. In the end, it is not just us who benefit. Instead, we are the ones who are affected and take the blame!"

"Director Fang, are you conciliatory?"

Wang Changtian's eyes flashed and he asked with some doubts.

In his heart, he was very disapproving. The glorious listing was due to the help of bad movies over the years.

There are no bad movies, and he, Lao Wang, is still working as an entertainment reporter!

"It's very simple. Alibaba and Teng Xun have already come in. Their online marketing methods cannot be competed by traditional film and television companies. If they learn your model of making bad movies, does Mr. Wang think there is still room for development in Guangxian? "

"Haha, it's a vulgar and funny story, with a total investment of around 20 million yuan, and a well-known artist as the lead. The production is rough, showcasing showmanship, laughter, and gimmicks.

Ali and Teng Xun will soon be able to produce this kind of bad street movie by themselves. Once this trend is formed, who will be unlucky, not us! "

After replying in one breath, Fang Ziheng sighed and went to pick up his own food to eat.

What should be said and what should not be said, he said it all today.

If Wang Zhongjun and Wang Changtian still don't change and have to seek death, then there is nothing they can do.

In the last life, after 2016, Huayi and Guangxian were greatly impacted by the Internet.

The total market value fell again and again, and was completely knocked out of the clouds.

In terms of producing high-quality movies, even Imperial Culture, founded by Song Ge in 2014, cannot compare. It is simply too weak.

It was a hearty dinner.

The main ones were Wang Zhongjun and Wang Changtian, who were drinking with their faces down and were in shock and uncertainty the whole time.

They were frightened by Fang Ziheng's words!

Listen to that, if Hua Yi and Guangxian don't make movies well, they will be killed by Alibaba and Teng Xun in the next few years.

Don't tell them that Hengyu Media will be affected. Even if the film and television companies in the hands of the other four people present are dead, Hengyu Media will definitely be fine.

Some people are happy, and some people are happy.

Yu Dong and Song Ge were very happy and felt that the future was bright. They always advocated making movies with heart, and either they didn't make movies or they had to make big productions.

The small and medium-sized cost of 20 to 30 million is too low!

The dinner party ended in an inexplicable atmosphere. Fang Ziheng ate and drank enough, patted his butt and left.

After entering July, the summer season officially ushered in a big explosion.

The increased capacity of the market has brought unexpected gains to a number of released movies.

The first is "Blind Detective", which was released on July 4. It opened on Thursday and performed well, with a box office of 83 million yuan in its first week.

"Blind Detective"!

Starring Andy Lau, Sammi Cheng, Guo Tao and others, it can be called the Hong Kong film with the best opening performance in recent years.

It is rare that the movie does not focus on the detective plot as the audience imagined. The love element in the film brought many surprises to everyone.

A reporter visited the cinema to observe in person and found that in the first weekend of the first weekend in the two first-tier cities in Lingnan, the major theaters in the city center were full for almost every show, the number of films scheduled was not high, and the attendance rate was skyrocketing.

At the same time, many senior film critics also expressed their affirmation of "Blind Detective" and spoke in support of the film. Time.com and Douban Movies both gave the film about 8 points, which is not easy.

Netizens also showed up one after another, shouting that Brother Hua is getting better and better as he gets older, and he deserves to be an evergreen tree in the entertainment industry!

July 11th.

"Rooftop", directed and starred by Zhou Milk Cha, was released with a box office of 58 million in its first week, achieving impressive results.

The film not only broke the box office record for mainland musicals, but also surpassed the Hollywood movie "Les Misérables."

Zhou Milk Cha has also successfully crossed over from the king of Chinese pop music to a film director.

July 14th.

The General Administration of Optoelectronics held a press conference to announce to the public the achievements of the film market in 2013.

As of June 30th.

In 2013, the total box office in mainland China exceeded 12 billion, setting a record, with domestic films accounting for 68% of the total box office.

"The Great Wall" and "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" became the box office champion and runner-up in the first half of this year with extremely high box office receipts of 1.62 billion and 1.26 billion respectively. "Iron Man 3" with less than 750 million took the top spot on the imported film box office list.

Since the year before last, Chinese-language films have not only held on to the market for three consecutive years, but have also overtaken Hollywood films locally.

July 15th.

Chairman of Hengyu Media Group, Fang Ziheng attended the ‘2013 Film and Television Finance High-end Seminar’ in Shanghai

at the seminar.

Fang Ziheng spoke confidently: "It is expected that China's film market will reach its peak from 2017 to 2018, and the total box office for the year is expected to exceed US$10 billion!"

"The road ahead of us is infinitely broad. As a filmmaker, only by making movies with heart can we live up to the hard-won success!"

Stephen Stites, vice president of Goldman Sachs Group, also predicted China's film market at the Shanghai International Film Festival Forum.

The total box office will surpass the United States within 4 years and become the country with the highest movie box office in the world.

The two people's speeches added firewood to the already hot film market.

Especially Fang Ziheng, as a man standing at the top of the Chinese film food chain, his confident speech gave the entire industry a shot in the arm.

The entertainment industry, film market, and television market have welcomed a large group of investors, waving banknotes into the market.

July 17th.

"The Breakup Master", controlled by Hengyu Media and written and directed by Deng Chao, was released and grossed 50 million at the box office on the first day.

Compared with the previous one, the movie is a little less ingenious and deliberate, and abandons the overexertion of the stage play.

Under the intensive revision of Hengyu Literary Screenwriting Department, the quality of the script has been improved by more than one level.

Old Dengtou also learned to be bad. No, this guy is bad to begin with.

He followed the example of Su Lun and Hao Yi and insisted on letting Fang Ziheng be the producer. He said, "I can only rest assured because of you", which made people's skin crawl.

July 18th.

Wanda Film and Television held a grand premiere ceremony for "Pacific Rim" in the imperial capital. The venue was empty and more than 2,000 people came to watch the ceremony.

At Da Tiantian's invitation, Fang Ziheng also came. Dressed in a crisp white suit, he became the central figure as soon as he appeared.

In the lounge, Da Tiantian, who was waiting to appear on stage, saw his beautiful eyes and turned into a young girl.

"Ah, why are you dressed so handsomely?"

Fang Ziheng closed the door, opened his arms and turned around, smiling: "Yes, isn't this to cooperate with our beautiful lady Jing and not to embarrass the goddess!"

"loquacious!"

Da Tiantian was stubborn in her words, but happy in her heart, and was very happy with her lover's flattery.

She pulled Fang Ziheng to the sofa and sat down, leaned against him and said happily: "I told you, I'm done with the promotion of "Pacific Rim", so there's nothing to do?"

"Well, it's time to have a good rest. You have been so busy in the first half of the year, flying all over the world." Fang Ziheng hugged the beauty, kissed her forehead, and looked at her lovingly.

Da Tiantian blinked her eyes, took courage, and came forward with watery eyes.

Woo woo

A few minutes later.

Da Tiantian breathed heavily and let go of Fang Ziheng. While arranging her evening dress, she took out her lipstick and mirror from her bag to touch up her makeup.

Fang Ziheng leaned back, looked at her half-legged, and asked, "Are you the heroine later?"

"Yes, this movie focuses on me in China, and I am the top publicity seed." Da Tiantian nodded and said with high spirits.

Hollywood movies generally only hold a meeting in China unless necessary, and rarely hold large-scale premieres like Chinese movies.

Unless it encounters a movie that is destined to be a hit, China Film Group will lend flowers to Buddha to make a show.

After all, it doesn’t matter whether it’s a box office hit or not.

"Bad Pacific" is not a co-production on the surface, it is an out-and-out Hollywood movie.

However, the main producer of the movie, Legendary Pictures, has been acquired by Wanda Group, and the big boss behind the movie is Chinese.

Wanda Film and Television held a grand premiere ceremony, maybe not without the intention of taking the opportunity to flex their muscles.

Look

It is a science fiction movie produced purely by Hollywood, with a total investment of US$200 million, and we, Wanda, are the big boss.

Just ask if it’s awesome!

Fang Ziheng guessed that this bad idea came from either Song Ge from Wanda Pictures or Liu Ge from Wanda Cinema.

Sure enough, Da Tiantian told him that it was Song Ge who wanted to do it.

Wanda Film and Television pays for the hires themselves and gets less than half of the movie’s profit.

After resting for a while, Fang Ziheng left.

At 7 p.m., the premiere begins.

Wanda Film and Television has made a big splash this time, inviting the director and leading actor of "Pacific Rim" to come over.

In the large screening room, 2,000 people looked curiously at the foreigner on the stage, feeling as if they were watching a monkey show.

In the front row, many filmmakers were observing and discussing in low voices.

“Awesome, Wanda has successfully acquired the second largest theater chain in North America. It’s a great brand, and even Wanda Film and Television is proud of it!”

"Who made Wanda rich? Didn't you see that the prince has been making frequent noises recently, scolding this and that!"

"Tsk, tsk, there is a proverb circulating on the Internet recently. Have you heard of it?"

"What proverb?"

"The former is not omnipotent, it belongs to Wanda!"

"Haha... interesting!"

Fang Ziheng sat in the second row, listening to others' discussions about Wanda, and leisurely admiring Da Tiantian's grace on the stage.

Wearing a high-collared lavender evening dress, she looked noble and elegant, unparalleled in brightness, like a dazzling superstar.

Anyone who sees it will praise it as "the flower of wealth in the world"!

Can you believe it!

The heroine of a Hollywood blockbuster with a US$200 million investment stood in the C position at the premiere, with the director and the hero standing next to her as foils.

This kind of unnatural treatment has never happened to any of the minor beauties, not even the four major beauties.

Every one of the female celebrities present tonight is secretly gnashing their teeth and filled with envy and jealousy.

Um.

Let Tiantian wear this dress at night.

Take off half of it.

Fang Ziheng looked at Da Tiantian with a smile, thinking this.

………

seven thirty.

The interviewing reporter accepted a thick red envelope and left with satisfaction, and the movie officially started.

"Pacific Rim" is a science fiction film that focuses on special effects and mechas, without any plot twists.

In this kind of film, the plot should not be complicated. The simpler, the better. It is best not to set anything up for the audience to think.

It’s just a fun ride and a reckless ride!

In Hollywood, usually the more expensive the movie, the more straightforward the story is. The purpose of doing this is to avoid any factors that may lead to failure due to the plot.

With technology and special effects at hand, no plot required, this is a standard Hollywood special effects blockbuster movie!

boom..

As background music played, the big screen flashed, and the beginning of the story appeared.

Pacific Rim!

Deep under the sea, a huge creature appeared.

The beast lands, taking the lead in destroying San Francisco and all the coastal cities in its path.

The U.S. military has organized many operations to attack the giant beast, but all failed.

Humanity is in danger!

There was no choice but to use nuclear bombs to cleanse the ground, and finally killed the giant beast in one fell swoop.

But the nuclear bomb was so powerful that hundreds of miles around San Francisco was scorched and turned into a desolate land.

then.

The second and third batch of monsters appeared and slaughtered humans crazily.

Humans racked their brains and tried every method, but could not defeat the monsters. Finally, they tried their luck using a 'mecha' they invented.

On the big screen.

The huge mecha appeared, and the audience was shocked.

"Oh my god, it's so big!"

"Damn it, how heavy is your thing? Can it fly?"

"Haha, looking at it this way, the mechas in "Transformers" and "Edge of Tomorrow" are simply child's play!"

"Xu, buddy, please keep your voice down, that old guy Fang Ziheng is sitting in the front row!"

"Tch, I'm afraid of him. If he dares to lay a finger on me, I'll have to go to the hospital and lie down for half a month!"
