Chapter 516 Thats all

"It's so sour." Zhu Yawen and Lei Jiayin came out without their wives.

"It's so sweet." Nazha, Reba and others who are single are at the same age as Huaichun. They all think that Cheng and Liu are worthy of being a model couple in the entertainment industry, and they will change their name to model couples next year.

Cheng Yu'an smiled and said: "You asked me to hit you, you can't blame me."

"Cheng Dao, Cheng Dao," the girls started to have fun and asked boldly, ignoring the relationship between superiors and subordinates, "How did you catch up with Sister Yifei? She is a fairy sister."

Guo Fei laughed at the side: "What are you chasing? Yifei is chasing him."

Cheng Yu'an was in a good mood today and didn't mind talking about it: "I was sick at that time, and she took advantage of it."

Guo Feidao: "You said you were fat and you were out of breath. You can just have fun finding a wife like Qianqian. When it was first announced, how many people on the Internet scolded you."

Cheng Yu'an smiled and said: "They can't eat grapes and say sour grapes. Besides, it was me who confessed my love first."

Everyone played until early in the morning and then dispersed: "Okay, okay, it's getting late. Let's all go and rest. You will be tired from the whole day of activities tomorrow."

Cheng Yuan delivered a keynote speech on "China-Hollywood: The Social and Cultural Influence of Sino-US Film Cooperation" at the China-US Film Summit Forum on the second day.

At this kind of summit, he is unlikely to say anything without hesitation, but he also put forward his own point of view:

"The newly signed Sino-US film agreement is a good signal that the Chinese film market is becoming more and more open. There is indeed a gap in the concepts and levels of Chinese and American film production that cannot be ignored, but this does not mean that China's

Audiences and investors can be treated arrogantly by the United States.

"'Iron Man 3' is a good example. Wang Xueqi and Fan Xiaopang are both excellent actors in China, but they did not receive the respect they deserved during the filming of 'Iron Man 3'.

"DMG, as the global producer of "Iron Man 3", has not received the treatment it deserves. I don't think that China should pay for everything that "Iron Man 3" suffered in China. This is because American films are accustomed to being the global leader.

Caused by arrogance and disrespect for overseas markets and overseas actors.

"China-US co-productions still need to overcome many difficulties, cultural and ideological, but I think we should and must first overcome mental problems. Chinese and American filmmakers are equal, and we are not asking for charity from American movies.

China's domestic films are becoming increasingly powerful. So far this year, half of the top ten box office films in China's film market are local films.

"The reason why I didn't believe in the future of Sino-US co-production before was because I didn't believe that American filmmakers would treat Chinese filmmakers equally. However, I always believe that China and the United States, as the two largest film markets in the world, will definitely have a bright future.

Cooperation outweighs differences. Here I also hope that Mr. Greg Foster (Chairman of IMAX), Mr. Christopher Dodd (Chairman of the American Film Institute) and Mr. Louis Kerman (President of DreamWorks Animation) will guide American movies

Learn to respect the Chinese market. Thank you."

This statement is 70% true and 30% false.

Cheng Yu'an simply doesn't believe that Americans will respect the Chinese market. It's okay to come to China to make money, but you can't make money from the Chinese people and disgust the Chinese audience at the same time.

At the awards ceremony after the summit, Li Bingbing won the East-West Talent Award of this summit.

At the reception after the award ceremony, Zhang Zhao, the president of LeTV Pictures who attended the summit with the delegation, complained to Cheng Yu'an: "We can't help it. The Americans just look down on us and take our money as if it's a matter of course."

Yuanyuan does not have any dealings with LeTV, but Zhang Zhao does have the ability. Cheng Yuan said: "In fact, we should focus on the domestic market. Hollywood has been operating overseas for a hundred years. It is too difficult to borrow their ship to go overseas."

Zhang Zhao obviously disagrees with this statement: "Going overseas can gain a broader market and profits. There is no film company in the world that does not want to do global distribution."

Cheng Yu'an said: "Hollywood's global distribution is based on the comprehensive strength of the United States. It is the world's leader, and English is the international language. If domestic films want to go overseas, at least at this stage, I can't think of any way. Using money to pave the way will only be treated badly by Hollywood.

Monkey play."

"Aren't you doing pretty well in North America?"

Cheng Yu'an shook his head: "A major film company also produces English-language films. We have also started to distribute ourselves in the past two years, but the results are not very good. We have mobilized up to seven or eight hundred theaters in North America, and we will not be able to do more overseas.

The market still has to rely on the Big Six and local companies in various countries.”

"I heard that you have obtained the authorization for the sequel of "Jurassic Park". LeTV is willing to cooperate with Director Cheng. Don't worry, we will not interfere in the creation or add actors."

Before Zhang Zhao could finish speaking, Cheng Yu'an refused: "Mr. Zhang, it's too late for you to mention it. If you had mentioned it last year, I would have agreed to it."

The investment in "Wanda Park" was not decided by me alone, it had to be approved by Universal and Spielberg. Wanda's President Zeng (Zeng Maojun, President of Wanda Pictures) has already invested us US$100 million, and the contract we signed with Wanda is still

Due to the exclusive agreement, we cannot cooperate with other film producers in China. I’m sorry, Mr. Zhang, let’s work together again if we have the opportunity in the future.”

Wanda's entry into "Jurassic World" basically covered Cheng Yu'an's initial investment, and a major film company got the project off the ground with almost no money of its own.

After finishing the evening's activities, Cheng Yu'an took the remote team to a major film company the next day.

"This must be the first time for many of you to come to my company in the United States. David, take my friends to visit the company."

After the company expanded in the past few years, the original three-story office could no longer meet its needs, so it bought an office building with three underground floors and seventeen floors above ground in Santa Monica, where it combined the film company and animation company, as well as

Tiangong Yicai’s R&D center in North America was fully packed and brought in.

In a place like Hollywood, where land is at a premium, this building cost US$200 million. Cheng Yuan was so distressed when he signed the contract.

"Dallas Buyers Club" landed in North America a few days ago. Because it was a film for the Olympics, it was only released in 9 theaters on a small scale. However, it also scored US$263,000, with a single theater revenue of up to US$1,000, and received a lot of praise.

.

"This is what literary and artistic films are trying to do for the Oscars. They are released on a small scale in the early stage, and if they win an award, they will be expanded a little. This way, it will trickle down to the Oscars, and then they will be expanded based on the nominations and awards."

Cheng Yu'an is doing Oscar science for them: "There are more than 6,000 Oscar judges, and the judges will try to be fair and impartial, but here, money is everything. If a film wants to win nominations and awards, it must persuade as many people as possible. With so many judges, the public relations link was born. So, don’t think about the Oscars being so noble. Behind every award-winning film is lobbying companies spending money.”

"Then how much money are we going to spend this time?" Lei Jiayin asked.

""Dallas Buyers Club" has prepared 20 million US dollars, and "Old Father" has prepared 10 million US dollars. The two films use the same public relations team."

"30 million U.S. dollars, that's more than 100 million. Tsk, tsk, tsk, just for a prize, spend more than 100 million?"
