Since 1983

Old Tian, ​​you have to help Shanghai Film Studio. We have been selling houses and land for several years, and now we don't even have to sell the land.

Xiaotian, can you allocate some money for relief first, even if you lend it to us. Our factory has no money to buy coal, and everyone, old and young, is freezing.

Director Tian, ​​Director Tian...

After finally getting off work, Leader Tian got out of the mess. The people below are very thieves, and you can figure it out with a little trouble, not to mention such a big change.

When he presided over the reform of the film industry, it should have progressed naturally, but in the end, his superiors interrupted the reform and came up with the 9550 project.

Turn the resources and direction of Chinese movies to the main theme at once.

As a result, more than 110 films were produced in 1996, and 88 films were produced in 1997. The entire market collapsed, and only The Wind and New Year's films saved face...

It couldn't be more obvious to suddenly activate Leader Tian at this moment.

Director!

Director!

He walked all the way, the staff greeted him all the way, and he was not happy. Because this leader is very serious about work, now that he is sitting in the right seat, no one can make ends meet.

Leader Tian got in the car, left the compound, and came to the China Film Family Building.

Knocking on the familiar door, Wu Mengchen's chubby face was revealed, and he said with a smile, How does it feel to make a comeback?

I don't feel anything, I have a headache from being quarreled.

Seeing the hot pot on the table, he smiled and said, I haven't eaten this for a long time, where are Xiao Dou and Xiao Xu?

I'll be there in a while.

After sitting there for a while, he heard a knock on the door again, and Dou Shoufang entered with a bag of steamed buns.

Wu Mengchen was amazed: If you are asked to buy food, you just buy steamed buns?

Oh, you don't know how expensive winter vegetables are, why not use them if you have a lot of money!

Boom boom boom!

Hearing another knock on the door, Xu Fei arrived, bringing beef and mutton, various vegetables, and a bottle of Wuliangye.

Everyone is here, come and have a seat!

The four of them gathered around the table as usual, the hot pot was gurgling and boiling, and the hut was soon filled with heat and became warm.

Look at each other and feel a lot of emotion.

One was transferred to manage party affairs and sat on the bench for two years; the other kept his head silent and kept a low profile as much as possible;

Only this one who is outside the system, when the wind is booming, he will go to Zhongnanhai every now and then.

Leader Tian poured the wine, raised his glass and said, Not much to say, let's offer you a toast first.

when!

Baijiu enters the throat, soft and not spicy.

Leader Tian really didn't talk nonsense, and said, It's a mess now, worse than it was two years ago.

The studio sold houses and land, and it could no longer survive. The filming only relied on subsidies, and there were almost no additional sources. Because the film environment is not good, private capital does not want to support it.

A large number of film directors changed careers to make TV dramas, and only a few Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige were able to receive funds.

The new generation, which is the sixth generation recognized by the academic circles, was wiped out and labeled as an underground director. I even think that Chinese directors are about to fail.

Words are slow and powerful, speaking of today's environment:

Piracy is rampant, if you check it, you will be strict, if you don't check it, you will be relaxed.

The production of films has decreased, and theaters have gone from bad to worse, and they can only rely on imported films and the main theme to reserve seats. Some theaters even rely on smuggled and pornographic films to survive.

The ticket price in Beijing has risen to 30 yuan...

Speaking of pornography, Mr. Xu remembers the movie theater in his small county in his hometown. In the late 1990s, one day he blatantly put up a poster of Li Lizhen’s Peach.

It also wrote in a serious manner: Under the age of 18, it is forbidden to watch.

What a black humor!

Alas, he really wanted to see it at that time.

Leader Tian has said so much, but it is only part of the problem. It is indeed a mess right now.

Simply put, it is vitality. The vitality of the market has declined, and the audience has no interest at all except for a few blockbuster films. Wu Mengchen said.

That's right, there is a shortage of money everywhere now, and even if the funds are allocated, they are only used to fill the gaps in administration and personnel, and are not used in production. Dou Shoufang shook his head and sighed.

I thought of a way to build a leading company like Xiao Xu.

Leader Tian paused for a moment, and continued: Integrating resources and optimizing administrative efficiency can concentrate our efforts on major tasks. With the support of such an enterprise, at least the whole line will not collapse.

You mean...

I want to reorganize China Film Corporation into China Film Group!

Hiss!

In an instant, Mr. Xu felt like participating in history again.

The original China Film Corporation has the only qualification to import films and a huge distribution network.

The children's film studio was merged into China Film a few years ago, which can strengthen the support for the children's film industry.

Beijing Film Studio has a huge talent pool and experienced production capabilities.

A Chinese film co-production company with co-production qualifications.

Beijing Film Processing Technology Factory and China Film Equipment Corporation can provide logistical support.

The movie channel program center can provide the distribution guarantee of the TV platform.

...

Both Wu Mengchen and Dou Shoufang were astonished. Imported films, co-productions, distribution, production, equipment technology, TV channels, so many resources have to be integrated into one family.

giant! giant!

Just as he was shocked, the spirited guy surnamed Xu continued to add fuel, saying: There is still one thing missing, a unit that produces audio-visual products.

oh?

Leader Tian thought about the scope of his jurisdiction, and said, It's easy to handle. Let's set up a company specializing in audio-visual products.

So, it's eight families in one family?

Eight families in one family.

China Film Group.

...

Fresh beef and mutton, greenhouse vegetables, and venetian yellow-throated potato chips and other items.

Sesame paste, fermented bean curd, chive flowers, sugar, chili sauce, diced green onion, made by yourself as a dipping sauce, sliced ​​meat in soup, happy to speak.

Xiao Wu, when the group is established, you will be the chairman.

Can.

Xiao Dou, you...

I can't do it. If you merge Beijing Film Studio, then take care of Han Sanping. This person is talented and good at production, so he is more suitable than me.

Dou Shoufang took the initiative to propose. Because the merger of Beijing Film Studio would definitely benefit Han Sanping, not to mention recruiting talents.

Xiao Xu, what do you think?

Old Wu is the chairman, and Han Sanping is the deputy. This configuration is quite good. The two cores make the chassis more stable.

Xu Fei wiped his mouth and asked, Old Dou, what do you want to do?

I'll just be an inspector.

Dou Shoufang smiled indifferently, he had been on the edge for two years, and his heart was a little bit out of control.

The so-called inspector is someone who does research and consulting work in the film bureau, and is usually held concurrently by the deputy director, a position without real power.

How old are you to be an inspector? No way! Leader Tian shook his head.

...

Xu Fei's heart moved, and he asked, Can Lao Dou let it out?

What's the meaning.

Go to Hong Kong, general manager of Yindu, can you?

Um?

The three were surprised and asked, Why do you want to go to Yindu?

Uh, Sunshine Films knows about it...

He hesitated for a moment and said, That's mine.

As soon as these words came out, the three of them held their chopsticks still, and were stunned for a second. Sunshine Pictures and Tianxia co-produced The Wind and produced Sweet Honey, which has a good reputation in the mainland.

is his? ! ! !

After a while, Leader Tian let out a long sigh: Xiao Xu, you are so bold!

It's more than that, it's Monkey Sun making trouble in the Heavenly Palace!

Hahaha, I've convinced you!

These days, Hong Kong and Taiwan are exporting to the mainland, who wants to insert into the other side? Of course, if they knew that Xu Fei still had a company in Hollywood, they would be insane.

The three of them tasted a bit of taste as soon as they thought about it, and then became more shocked and even excited.

Dou Shoufang was infected all of a sudden, he slapped the table and said, Just for your audacity, I'll help you!

(Historically, he was indeed transferred to the general manager of Yindu in 1998, and he produced Hancheng Raiders or something)

Okay, thank you in advance!

The two had a drink.

Yindu has been cultivating in Hong Kong for many years and has a complete distribution channel, and Hong Kong has close relations with South Korea, Japan, Gulf, and Southeast Asian markets. Although the former boss was okay, he was not one of his own after all.

In this way, Sunshine and Yindu have joined forces to become a basic regional market.

And China Film Group is the top priority. The mainland market is not good now, but it will be too good in the future... Who has the final say on imported films?

China Film!

(no more...)
