Chapter 661 Inexplicable sense of superiority
On the way to the courtyard from the airport, Qingxia and the others were all amazed. They felt that the capital city was about to catch up with Xiangjiang. Among them, Guan Guan was the most surprised. To be honest, she had been to the mainland the least.
It was even said that she had never been to the Mainland. Unlike Qingxia, who had relatives in the Mainland and who came to the Mainland for filming of movies, she had never filmed several movies, and unfortunately, none of these movies were shot in the Mainland.
Therefore, this was her first visit to the Mainland. Although she often heard Zhao Hong talk about things in the Mainland, it was deeply ingrained in her mind that the Mainland was poor and backward.
But after arriving in the capital, she felt that it was completely different. The spacious streets and rows of high-rise buildings were almost the same as Xiangjiang!
Originally, she had many things she wanted to ask, but when she saw Sanzi driving, she was embarrassed to speak out.
After the group entered the courtyard, she was also amazed by the beautiful architecture here.
"This... this is so beautiful!" She didn't even put down her luggage, and started walking around the courtyard, making bursts of surprise.
At this time, Limei and Qingxia looked at each other with a little pride. They had lived here long ago, and each of them had their own bedroom. Now seeing Guan Guan in this state, they felt an inexplicable sense of superiority.
.
"Haha, Axia, just take Guan Guan to find a free bedroom!" Zhao Hong was not surprised when he saw Guan Guan's surprised look. As long as he got here, he didn't see anyone who didn't like it, even Shao Daheng and Qiu
These two bad old men, the tycoon, are very fond of each other.
They stayed in the courtyard for an hour before leaving. It wasn't that Zhao Hong didn't want to walk faster, it was because the three of them had to return their clothes before leaving. This was mainly because the weather today was not cold and it was drizzling.
The temperature in Beijing during this month was only about ten degrees, so the thin clothes they wore when boarding the plane in Hong Kong were not suitable.
When Zhao Hong and the others arrived at the hotel, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.
"Are you all used to it?" Zhao Hong asked Cheng Xiaodong immediately.
"It's okay, director. It's just that some people didn't expect it to be so cold when they first came to the capital. I was worried that they would catch a cold because they didn't wear enough clothes, so I asked them to form a group and buy a few sets..." Cheng Xiaodong whispered some small things to the crew.
one time.
After hearing this, Zhao Hong nodded and said it was very good. She felt that he handled many details of the crew very well.
"Well, these considerations are in place, but I still want to emphasize one issue, that is, you must have a correct attitude when you come to the mainland to film. Don't think that you will just take care of it when you come to the mainland. As soon as such people are discovered, they will be expelled from the company directly. Where?
Go wherever you come."
"Also, whether it's food or anything else, Xiangjiang artists must be exactly the same as Mainland artists, and don't treat them differently." Zhao Hong warned in a low voice.
After hearing Zhao Hong's words, Cheng Xiaodong quickly said that he would comply. In fact, DreamWorks has relevant education on these words. All the details that people who come to the mainland should pay attention to when filming are all in the relevant regulations, and the penalties for those who commit them are quite severe.
serious.
After a few people tried their best at DreamWorks, there was no one who could stand out.
Zhao Hong is very relieved about these things, but you must say what needs to be said. Some things cannot be overstated even if they are repeated a thousand times.
When DreamWorks comes to the mainland to film a movie, the crew, whether they are from the mainland or Hong Kong, must be fair. The only unfair thing is that the wages are different. As for other meals, rooms, etc., they are the same.
There is nothing you can do about wages. Coming to the Mainland for shooting is just for cheap labor and the great country. If the wages of both extras and actors here are the same as those in Hong Kong, this will not be a good thing for the development of the Mainland, because if artificial
As costs have increased, there are far fewer crews coming to the mainland for filming.
"Ajie, are you and Zai Dan brothers?" Zhao Hong had a cordial exchange with the cast members one by one during dinner.
"Well, yes, it's just that he and I haven't met each other often, but we are familiar with each other now." Li Lianjie said to Zhao Hong with a smile.
"Well done! I have high expectations for this drama!" Zhao Hong patted him on the shoulder and said.
"Director Cheng, thank you for providing a lot of convenience this time."
Although this movie does not have anything to do with Beijing Film Studio, it is still inseparable from this local snake in many cases.
Director Cheng came here specially to meet Zhao Hong this time. The relationship between the two parties is quite good. The last time they collaborated on the film "The Wind", they were very happy.
"Haha, I came here specifically to thank you this time. We took advantage of you last time in "The Wind"." Director Cheng said sincerely.
The movie "The Wind" made their film studios, Xiying Film Studio and Bayi Film Studio each earn almost two million yuan. This is the money earned from buying copies alone. If the box office is split, each company will earn 10 million yuan.
To put it mildly, the box office of this movie easily exceeded 100 million RMB according to statistics.
"Haha, it's just mutual benefit for everyone. It's not about taking advantage."
…
Zhao Hong chatted with Cheng Chang for a few more words. He felt a fiery gaze. He turned his head and saw that it was Xu Qing, a girl.
"Senior, thank you for giving me this opportunity." She walked over and said to Zhao Hong as if she was not familiar with Zhao Hong.
"Is this sister the director's schoolmate? Has she graduated?" Guan Guan, who had been beside Zhao Hong at this time, asked softly.
She just saw this girl showing admiration for Zhao Hong, which made her heart skip a beat. It seemed that the relationship between the two was not too pure!
"Who is this sister?" Xu Qing said, pretending not to know her. In fact, she knew a little about Guan Guan. The main reason was that Guan Guan was too showy. She had a lot of experience during the time she lived in Xiangjiang.
I saw Guan Guan’s report.
She even vaguely knew about Guan Guan and Zhao Hong, which made her feel very unhappy.
"Haha, sister, I am one of the leading actors in this movie, playing the role of Jin Xiangyu..."
Zhao Hong felt chilled in her heart when she saw their sister and sister were called. She felt like she didn't know whether it was right or wrong for them to appear in the same crew.
"You guys chat, I'm going to the restroom." After saying that, he ran away a little bit. After slowly coming out of the restroom, he returned to the restaurant. There was harmony. Guan Guan and Xu Qing were still talking and laughing. This made
He was a little confused.
Next, Zhao Hong basically chatted with Director Cheng. In his words, he was very dissatisfied with the inability to split the accounts. They dare not spend huge sums of money to shoot movies now, mainly because they basically cannot recoup the cost.
You can only make money by buying copies, which means that a movie can basically only earn a million at most. There are very few such profitable movies, and many of them are worthless and are completely wasted.
This has resulted in many movie theaters being overrun, but the production company owes a huge sum of money. Although there are external box offices that can make some money, it is a pity that the external box offices are basically not available to the movie studios. China Film Group has deducted money for various reasons.
Lost most of it.
It is becoming more and more difficult for film companies to survive this time and again.
Zhao Hong is also helpless in dealing with these problems. He generally doesn't give instructions in the mainland and just goes with the flow.
In fact, what Director Cheng said is that the reform has not yet been completed, and it is a sensitive matter in the cultural field. It is best for him, an outsider, not to say anything.
Some time ago, the relevant local leaders sent people to Hong Kong to investigate the basic model of Hong Kong movies. He welcomed everyone and allowed them to observe as they pleased, but would not express any opinions.
He is a person who is more afraid of trouble. Sometimes it is better to be an outsider.
It's like he donated 10 billion US dollars to the mainland's high-tech field, but he never told them how to do it, as long as the money was used in practical ways.
Zhao Hong could tell from Factory Director Cheng's words that he was someone who wanted to reform the current situation, but the resistance was so great that he just stared blankly.
Chapter completed!
