In November 2003, China's film censorship system ushered in a major reform, and the "Film Territorial Censorship System" was passed.
Seven places including Yanjing, Shanghai, eastern Guangdong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang were included in the pilot areas. In the past, film project establishment, review, and awards were all done by the film bureau, but now the approval power is delegated to provinces and cities.
There is no doubt that the film and television industry has undergone tremendous changes.
In the past, you had to submit a movie script for approval, like "A World Without Thieves", where you had to prepare a complete outline, plot and lines in advance. Now you only need to get a thousand-word movie synopsis to submit it for approval.
Lu Fei got accurate information from Han Sanping and will start trial production next year. The first film of the Han and Tang dynasties can finally be put on the agenda.
"The Blind Shaft" can only be considered an investment, not self-control.
"Really?"
Gao Yuanyuan was surprised and happy. Over the years, she had received not a hundred but dozens of movie scripts, all of which were gathering dust and finally seeing the light of day again.
"Don't let the rich water flow to outsiders' fields."
Lu Fei touched his chin and said, "Directors who signed contracts with Han and Tang Dynasties will be given priority. If Ning Hao, Xue Xiaolu and others have ideas, they can directly send the script. After you review it, you will let me know."
"Hehe, I already have it."
Gao Yuanyuan stretched out her finger and saw numerous treasures, such as "Ocean Paradise" by Xue Xiaolu, "Green Grass" by Ning Hao...
"Forget it about art films. We have too much self-awareness and don't regard investors' money as money. If we want to make films, we will make commercial films."
Lu Fei waved his hand. Today's Chinese-language movies don't even understand commercialization, let alone industrialization.
There is not even a complete set of processes from pre-shooting, post-production, promotion, distribution, and theatrical screening. It is not as good as Hong Kong in the 1980s and 1990s, let alone Hollywood.
Zeng Li sat on his left, watching the movie absentmindedly, and glanced at them out of the corner of her eye with complicated eyes.
Seeing Gao Yuanyuan being empowered, she vaguely enlightened, "Sister Lifang, I, and Teacher Tang will look for more, but will director Wang's "Green Red" have to be selected? After all, he was the one who arranged it..."
"Sign up and treat him as a favor."
Lu Fei patted her hand and looked at the screen.
"Mobile Phone" is about the famous host Yan Shouyi, who is dealing with three women, his wife and his lover. Because of a mobile phone, his extramarital affair is exposed, and in the end his family, love and career are all ruined.
"The mobile phone is no longer a mobile phone, it is a grenade!"
"Having slept in the same bed for more than ten years will indeed cause some aesthetic fatigue."
"I found two women together. It's not a story, it's an accident..."
In the scene at this time, Yan Shouyi was divorcing his wife.
Lu Fei was sandwiched between the two women, looking left and right. Suddenly Gao Yuanyuan opened her mouth and whispered:
"Do you think Yan Shuyi looks like the same person?"
"I feel this way too, like a human being."
Zeng Li looked sideways, looking at the man's eyes and nose, nose and heart, pursed her lips and said, "Does he look like Xiao Cui?"
"Yes, yes, sister Zeng Li."
Gao Yuanyuan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "The stage layout of "One Says One" is very similar to "The Truth", and the hosting style is also very similar."
"Yan Shouyi is actually a fiction."
Lu Fei exposed Feng Pants' conspiracy in a few words.
"Director Feng and the others, aren't they being too immoral?"
Zeng Li frowned, and it was hard for Gao Yuanyuan to disagree. She was insinuating Cui Yongyuan's cheating out of thin air, just to create gimmicks and popularity for the film?
It just so happens that there are quite a few in the audience, so they can peek into the private lives of public figures.
"No way? No way? I think Xiao Cui is quite honest. Why is his private life so messy and he still messes around with men and women?"
"Don't you understand? The more glamorous you are on the outside, the filthy you are on the inside. You talk about benevolence and morality, but you are full of men stealing and women prostitutes."
"Hey, you know people, you know faces, but you don't know hearts..."
In the audience, there were a lot of discussions and curses.
"Fuck you, uncle, Feng Pants!"
Suddenly, a figure jumped up, hurriedly passing by like a ghost, and happened to pass in front of Lu Fei and the others.
There was darkness in the dark cinema hall.
Lu Fei took a closer look, and he could vaguely distinguish a human face in the outline of Mohu. It was Cui Yongyuan.
This trip is not in vain, I am looking for you!
He immediately followed him until he left the movie theater. The two of them walked into the bathroom one after the other.
Immediately afterwards, he deliberately stepped on the heel of Cui Yongyuan's shoe, seemingly unintentionally, causing him to stumble.
He stumbled and almost fell over. He suddenly turned around and saw Lu Fei's face. His anger turned into shock:
"Mr. Lu?"
"You, Xiao Cui." Lu Fei apologized.
Cui Yongyuan kept saying it was okay and asked curiously: "Why do you have time to come to the cinema?"
Lu Fei said: "Come and see the premiere of "Mobile Phone"."
Cui Yongyuan's face darkened instantly, "Mr. Lu, this movie is extremely bad. It is completely self-deprecating and stupid. Only directors and screenwriters with evil and unclean hearts would do this!"
"When I came out, I heard someone say it."
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes, "Is that you Yan Shouyi?"
"not me."
"Isn't it?"
"No, Mr. Lu! Do you think I am this kind of person?"
Lu Fei shook his head, "He is not you."
"You said he is not me?" Cui Yongyuan was very emotional as it was rare to find someone who believed in him.
"No." Lu Fei narrowed his eyes.
Cui Yongyuan was so angry that he gritted his teeth: "I said he is not me! This is not me at all!"
"So what's going on?"
Lu Fei stood at the sink and turned on the faucet.
"I still want to know what's going on?
Cui Yongyuan's face was red and veins popped out on his forehead. Before the filming of "Cell Phone" started, Feng Pengtong specially invited him to his home as a guest, made dumplings and entertained him warmly.
He is very down-to-earth and reveals the details of his work, daily life, and even some of the background of "Tell the Truth".
Unexpectedly, Feng Peng was handed a knife and stabbed him in the back.
Xiao Cui, how sad!
Lu Fei curled his lips, it was indeed Feng Pants' fault.
Nowadays, Choi Yong-won is very popular. Because of his witty eloquence and sensitive and sharp topics, "To Tell the Truth" has a peak ratings of 62%, and is regarded by countless people as the embodiment of justice.
Just because of "Cell Phone", just like when Zhu Jun was falsely accused of sexual harassment, his reputation was ruined and his career was completely ruined.
Only then did Bai Yun say, "Xiao Cui, I heard that you are depressed again." It's no wonder that Feng Pengtong wanted to film "Mobile Phone 2" and stopped it like crazy, even going to the extreme to change the situation, which involved Fan Shuibing.
Instantly triggering a wave of celebrities paying taxes, these are all things for later.
"Mr. Lu, I want to send a lawyer's letter to Feng Pants. I want to sue him for defamation and infringement of my reputation."
Cui Yongyuan held water in both hands, "I want him to apologize publicly!"
"Xiao Cui, your accusation means that this place will be deprived of three hundred taels of silver. It was just an insinuation at first, but now it is completely confirmed."
Lu Fei gave a few hints, whether he was suing the court or criticizing the movie, he was playing into Feng Pants's hands, which was equivalent to helping "Cell Phone" become more popular and attract the attention of ordinary people.
In fact, they don’t even want to know how many bowls of noodles you eat, they just want you to die! Drink your blood and kill you!
"Lu, Mr. Lu, you are right."
Cui Yongyuan's eyes widened and he said anxiously: "But you can't just sit back and do nothing. If it hurts me, I will tolerate it, but it will affect my wife and children, affect the work, and even damage the image of the host of Yangma among the people.
This is absolutely intolerable!”
"I know how it feels."
Lu Fei took out a tissue to wipe his hands and gave an example of Feng Yuanzheng from "Don't Lie to Strangers". He still can't get out of An Jiahe's shadow and is scolded as a "domestic violence man".
"Mr. Lu, what should I do?"
Cui Yongyuan's face turned pale and his hands were shaking with anger.
"If you want to solve the problem, the best way is not to fight back, but to avoid it. If you want to suppress your problem, you have to use a more popular thing to overcome it."
Lu Fei touched his forehead, "What is this called agenda in journalism? Agenda..."
“Agenda setting!”
Cui Yongyuan was extremely excited and said: "Good morning, Mr. Lu!"
Lu Fei's words were like the whisper of a devil, inducing him how to suppress trending searches, how to engage in debates, and how to climb to the moral high ground...
"Xiao Cui, you are the host of "Tell the Truth". You should know better than me what topics have attracted the most attention recently?"
"genetically modified!"
Cui Yongyuan's eyes lit up, "Mr. Lu, I understand!"
…………
"Recently, the latest issue of Yangma's "Tell the Truth" focused on the hot topic - whether genetically modified food products should be promoted or banned, triggering heated discussions in society."
"Cui Yongyuan said: Media people must remain objective and neutral in reporting, but as for me personally, I firmly oppose genetically modified crops, the indiscriminate planting of genetically modified crops, and genetically modified products..."
"Cui Yongyuan: Declare war on genetically modified soybeans!"
"The movie "Mobile Phone" is a hit. The prototype of the protagonist Yan Shouyi is suspected to be a famous host of Yangma. Major media directly pointed at Cui Yongyuan. The media person said: Will you be responsible for your wife?"
"..."
The promoters of "Mobile Phone" tried hard to blame Cui Yongyuan and force him to fight back. However, Cui Yongyuan did not accept the move and turned into an anti-GMO fighter, criticizing harshly from the commanding heights.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
These media are likely to be supported by overseas forces!
Just for the sake of genetic modification and to defeat me, a righteous man, they poured dirty water on me and slandered my private life. It was all an organized and premeditated frame-up...
As expected of Xiao Cui, he understood all the tricks of the scarf.
Lu Fei sat in front of the computer and looked at the comments on portals, post bars, and bbs communities. As Cui Yongyuan set the pace, the comments gradually became polarized, with some supporting and some opposing, and the public opinion was fierce.
"I really didn't expect that Xiao Cui would end up."
Liu Edong was very surprised, "Mr. Lu, who do you think will win?"
"Neither side will win."
Lu Fei is very clear that it is impossible to completely ban genetically modified crop products because of the national conditions. China's current agriculture is monotonous, there is an extreme shortage of arable land, and corn is given higher priority than soybeans.
It can't be eliminated, but at least it can be reduced to a low-end level.
We can't find high-end prices online, so we package domestic local soybeans, peanuts and other edible oils into mid-to-high-end brands that are green, nutritious, and non-GMO.
The profit from the price difference flows back to the manufacturers, crushing plants, and soybean farmers, injecting blood into the local industrial chain, preventing it from being fully occupied by ABCD grain merchants, and retaining the spark of innovation.
Of course, the public opinion war is only the first step!
He crossed his arms and asked about the sales volume of cooking oil on Feigou.com.
"big sale!"
Liu Edong smiled and said that the sales of domestic edible oils were rising, especially Luhua peanut oil. Although the "5s pressing technology" was not understandable, users were shocked and just bought it.
Lu Fei knocked on the table and said, "Godong, help me make an appointment with the vice president of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and say that I will treat him to a meal."
"I'll do it right away."
Although Liu Edong was confused, he knew that Mr. Lu must have a deep meaning in doing this, but he hadn't realized it yet.
Click, the office door closes.
Lu Fei leaned back, leaned his back on the soft chair, slid the mouse, and paid attention to the trends in the genetically modified debate, and suddenly found an article pinned to the top of the four major portals——
"Opposition to genetic modification is anti-intellectual speech!"
The author turned out to be Fang Zhouzi, who then published two articles in a row, "Comment on Cui Yongyuan's mindless ravings", "The joke-filled "Xiao Cui talks about genetic modification""...
In an instant, the verbal exchange escalated to a personal attack!
The corners of Lu Fei's mouth turned up, revealing a hint of a smirk. He was worried about the logic of cracking down on counterfeiting, but he didn't know how to calculate it, so you jumped out?
