As for picking up Lao Chen's wool, it was to spur him on and let him not be proud.

Lao Chen just shouldn't be allowed to climb to the highest peak all at once, otherwise he will no longer be down-to-earth in the future. How can he be able to make good movies in the future just by putting on airs?

Of course, part of it is that the relationship between Lao Chen and him is still not as good as Lao Mouzi.

Furthermore, the system of this film is locked, so even if Lao Chen wanted to film it, he would have no chance!

I really didn’t want to trick him!

Lao Mouzi felt very happy after hearing Zhao Hong's words. In fact, he was also a little stressed. He and Zhao Hong had won the most awards in their session, so there was a bit of comparison in his heart.

This is also the biggest area where he doesn't take action, and he is still a bit confident.

"Fourth Brother, you don't give others a way to survive! You have won box office and awards, and you are hard-working on both sides. This is really amazing."

Lao Mouzi said with a sigh.

"You can also try commercial films. Really, in the future, the mainland will still rely on commercial films to support it."

Zhao Hong smiled slightly after hearing what Lao Mouzi said, and then said.

"It's difficult. In fact, commercial films are not that easy to make. Now I feel like I can't make it in art films."

Lao Mouzi said a little distressed.

As a director, who doesn't want his movies to be big hits, but the nature of literary films means that the box office is not too high. His current best box office is "Red Sorghum".

This film is quite good whether in China or overseas, and the others are just a little bit worse.

Especially in the Mainland, where TV dramas are beginning to become more popular, especially with more and more color TV sets, the film industry will inevitably be affected.

Many cinemas are currently losing money, and some film policies are not very good. Under such circumstances, the mainland's film industry is beginning to shrink.

The box office of movies is getting lower and lower. Under such circumstances, bad movies are released one after another, which directly leads to the collapse of the movie market.

What follows is a decade of shrinkage, a decade in which many filmmakers seek innovation and change, and a decade in which film studios are forced to market themselves.

It was at this time that the sixth-generation directors graduated and discovered a problem, that is, no one invested in their movies. This was a very difficult thing. Every sixth-generation director had a sad journey of seeking investment.

In this case, it is inevitable to go to a dead end and shoot some fringe subjects to gain attention.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Lao Mouzi and the others. Now that they have become famous, there will never be a shortage of funds to invest in them.

The popularity of Lao Mouzi and the others in the mainland has skyrocketed, and every film released will attract huge attention, and the box office will not be far behind.

If they were not famous, the screening of their artistic films would still be a splash.

Lao Mouzi felt uncomfortable talking about the Mainland. The current film environment in the Mainland is really not very good. If many film studios had not cooperated with film crews from Hong Kong, they would have been unable to open the door.

Even in this way, film output is gradually decreasing, and market shrinkage is inevitable.

In fact, the main reason is due to policy. I heard that the main focus is to encourage the filming of main themes, while other types of films will not be approved, or they will be directly killed when reporting for filming.

Under this situation, filmmakers lost their greatest creative freedom and simply produced many junk-style movies with the main theme.

This directly leads to many viewers not wanting to go to the cinema and feeling alienated from the audience, and the film industry naturally stagnates.

Zhao Hong can't say much about this kind of thing. As for suggestions, forget it!

He generally stays indifferent to policy matters, and his bottom line is not to talk about politics.

"How about you come to Xiangjiang to shoot a commercial film?" Zhao Hong said after listening to Lao Mouzi's complaints.

After hearing this, Lao Mouzi felt strange for a while, but in the end he shook his head and said.

"It's better to slow down! Next year I will direct the movie "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit". This movie I will make some new attempts and adopt a documentary style, using a large number of semi-documentary techniques of non-professional actors to truly reflect the contemporary Chinese countryside.

appearance.”

In fact, there was one thing he didn't say, and that was that Maggie Cheung won the Best Actress tonight, and his muse's eyes revealed a fiery look. How could he not help in this situation?

Besides, he also wants to praise an actor, otherwise how can he highlight his quality as a great director.

Just like Zhao Hong, "Farewell My Concubine" won Rong Shao the Best Actress award at Cannes, while "Legend of Sicily" won the Best Actress award.

At this point he was envious.

Zhao Hong stopped talking as soon as she heard it. "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit" won the Golden Lion Award for Best Film and Best Actress Award at the 49th Venice International Film Festival.

It can be regarded as one of the most important awards for Lao Mouzi. The most important thing is that he won a muse, Gong Li, and made her famous internationally.

Although several of Lao Mouzi's films have greatly increased Gong Li's fame in Europe, none of them have actually won awards.

Fame is a very vain thing, only awards last forever.

No matter if it is ten years or twenty years, someone will know that you have won such an award.

Coffee is placed there.

Zhao Hong discovered a very interesting thing, that is, in the original time and space, Zhang Manyu and Gong Li basically took off at the same time period.

It can be said that they are supported by filmmakers from the Mainland and Hong Kong.

Of course, Lao Mouzi alone holds up half the sky.

This is really amazing.

After a good chat, they went back to sleep. Gong Li and Lao Mouzi left together at night.

Li Meimei, who had been hungry for several days, was finally liberated.

For a while, it was a dark night again.

Not just where is the starlight, where is the moonlight?

While Zhao Hong and the others were sleeping, Xiangjiang had already begun to explode.

"Mr. Zhao, Director Zhao, he won an award in Berlin!!" An operator hurriedly walked into the president's office and reported the good news to his sister.

"You won a prize? What prize?"

"Golden Bear for Best Film and Silver Bear for Best Actress."

Zhao Yingying was very happy after hearing this, but there was no expression on her face.

He just said softly: "I understand, go down!"

"Jaw, that's okay!"

This guy thought that this news would make the president very happy, but he didn't expect that his face was expressionless.

As expected of a CEO, ‘Mount Taishan collapses but his appearance remains unchanged’.

It's just that he didn't know that after he left, she couldn't suppress her whisper and kept giggling.

"This kid is really quite promising! He has almost won all three major universities in Europe!"

Next, she was no longer in the mood to deal with the documents, so she called her family members one by one to share the news.

The old Zhao family was bustling with excitement for a while, and Qiqi, Yazhi, and Qingxia also got the news not long after.

When they heard the news, they all felt trembling, as if they wanted someone to ravage them right now!

"Impossible! Why is he so unreasonable? He just wants to win the prize. Is this prize given by his family?"

When the two brothers of the Ma family learned the news, they were in disbelief.

In order to get first-hand information this time, they sent a luxury team directly to Berlin. The purpose was to film someone's mistake and publicize it fiercely.

Didn't expect it to be like this.

This really feels like killing a dog.

"Yes, how could this happen? This is unscientific! Cheating cannot be done like this."

"Oh, it's another failure. You said you want to make him fail. Why is it so difficult? Is it because our expectations are too high and cannot be achieved?"

The two brothers looked at each other in silence.

To be honest, they are really helpless when facing an opponent like DreamWorks. They can only wait for others to wield the butcher knife, and they can only watch.

Nothing can be done.

Even wanting to feel sick is very difficult.

In fact, they also know that even if their trip to Berlin fails, what's the big deal?

They are still as aloof as ever, and there is no impact on them at all.

"Brother, what do you think of us selling the newspaper?"

"What are you talking about? This is our lifeblood. The reason why our family is still happy today is because of the newspapers in our hands. Without this, what right to speak do we have? We must know that other businesses are shady.

"

"Besides, we received benefits from them some time ago. If we don't follow their instructions, we will be overthrown immediately."

"Oh, now we are in a dilemma!"

"Yeah, to be honest, if we were dealt with by DreamWorks, they wouldn't help us."

"Oh, you'd better think about how to win the game. If you want to be a chess piece, you have to be a chess piece."
