Perhaps due to the success of her family and career, the daughter of the Zou family is much fatter than when she first returned to Hong Kong. She looks very much like her father, Zou Wenhuai, and her face seems to be carved from the same mold.
This woman doesn't like to dress up. She is only in her early 00s, but her clothes are as tacky as a 50-year-old aunt. But she has the aura of a strong woman, especially after working in Jiahe's decision-making level for a few years, this aura has become
more obvious.
By the way, the producer of Cheng Long's best-selling "Red Zone" is Zou Chongyan himself.
"Mr. Kang, let's get straight to the point." Zou Chongyan's acting style became more and more forceful. After meeting, he only exchanged a few words and then started to talk about the topic, "I have completed the work of Mr. Shao and Mr. Huo, and they agreed to support
Host the Hong Kong International Film and Television Exhibition."
"What is the attitude of the Trade Development Council?" Kang Jianfei asked.
Zou Zhongyan said with a smile: "President Shi just took office last month. The new official has three things to do. Naturally, he wants to make some political achievements. He is also supportive."
Kang Jianfei spread his hands: "The president of the Trade Development Council supports it, so what's the difficulty?"
Zou Chongyan explained: "There are so many large-scale exhibitions hosted by the Trade Development Council, such as the International Jewelry Fair, Watch and Clock Fair, Toy Fair, Stationery Fair, Sporting Goods Fair... There are opportunities for large-scale exhibitions every month. The Trade Development Council's
The Exhibition Affairs Department, International Promotion Department, Communication Department and Publication Department are extremely busy. Once the Hong Kong International Film and Television Exhibition is confirmed, it will increase the workload of these departments."
Kang Jianfei nodded: "What then?"
"You know, Hong Kong will return to the motherland next year. The British are busy making money and preparing to leave. Even the Chinese civil servants are slacking off. Many departments are overstaffed," Zou Chongyan sighed. "This kind of creative activity is very difficult."
It's difficult to get approval, and everyone just wants to maintain the status quo. To put it more harshly, the British are deliberately slacking on government and want to make a mess for the Communist Party next year."
Of course Kang Jianfei is aware of this situation. More than a dozen Hong Kong film industry groups, as well as all well-known Hong Kong stars, have jointly submitted a letter requesting the British Hong Kong government to establish a Film Development Bureau. This move will not only be of great benefit to the development of Hong Kong films, but will also help improve the quality of Hong Kong films.
Hong Kong's economy and influence, but everyone has been shouting for several years without getting a response from the authorities. Even Kang Jianfei, the richest man, has spoken out to no avail.
Establishing the Hong Kong International Film and Television Festival is simpler than establishing the Hong Kong Film Development Council, but if several British directors of the Trade Development Council veto it, it will be difficult to get approval.
"Tell me what you think." Kang Jianfei was not in a hurry and drank the black tea slowly with a smile.
Zou Chongyan said: "We must start from two aspects. First, we must spend money to bribe a few British directors and feed them; second, we must lobby for more support from Chinese directors and put pressure on the British. I have already convinced
Shao, Huo and Mr. Kang must have more ideas than me."
Kang Jianfei thought for a while and said, "I'm 100% sure about the Zheng family, and I can give it a try to the Dong family."
"Very good, Mr. Shao promised to persuade Li Chaoren, and the Guo family should also give him face," Zou Zhongyan said with a smile, "If everything succeeds, then we will have eight supporting votes among the 19 directors of the Trade Development Council. Again.
Coupled with President Shi's support, even if the British directors object, this matter should be a sure thing."
"Let's split up." Kang Jianfei put down his tea cup.
...
Red Leaf Club.
Kang Jianfei and Zheng Jiachun had a chat about mainland real estate. Amidst laughter, he said the reason for his visit: "Brother Zheng, I have something to trouble you about."
When Kang Jianfei explained the general situation, Zheng Jiachun said with a smile: "This is simple, isn't it just a vote for support? Just say hello."
"Brother Zheng, this is a matter of mutual benefit." Kang Jianfei said.
"What do you mean?" Zheng Jiachun said confusedly. The Zheng family does not make movies or TV series.
Kang Jianfei said: "I heard that New World has a seaside garden in Tsim Sha Tsui and a seaside promenade."
New World Development Company is the Zheng family's company. Zheng Jiachun nodded and said, "Yeah, what's wrong?"
Kang Jianfei dipped his index finger in the tea cup and used the tea to draw a map on the table: "This is Tsim Sha Tsui, and next to it is the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center. Once the decision is made to establish the Hong Kong International Film and Television Exhibition, the exhibition will inevitably be held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center."
Zheng Jiachun looked at it for a long time, but still couldn't think of any connection between the two. The film and television exhibition would at most bring a little traffic to the Marina Garden and Marina Promenade.
"Brother Zheng, have you ever heard of the Hollywood Walk of Fame?" Kang Jianfei asked again.
Zheng Jiachun nodded and said, "Of course I know, he is so famous."
Kang Jianfei traced his finger across the map: "Renovate the Tsim Sha Tsui promenade and turn it into the Hong Kong Avenue of Stars. Build a sculpture of Bruce Lee here, and invite superstars like Cheng Long and Zhou Yunfa to stamp their fingerprints and leave their signatures on it."
Sign your signature."
Zheng Jiachun's mouth widened, he already understood what Kang Jianfei meant.
With the holding of the Hong Kong International Film and Television Exhibition, countless people from both inside and outside the industry visit every year. If a Hong Kong Avenue of Stars is built in the Convention and Exhibition Center, it will definitely become one of Hong Kong's landmark buildings, and its influence and passenger flow will be greatly increased.
The most commendable thing is that this idea does not cost anything at all. Because the land was originally managed by the Zheng family, with a few statues erected and a few pieces of terrazzo embedded in it, the renovation cost is completely negligible.
After Hong Kong's Avenue of Stars becomes famous, it is estimated that many first- and second-tier stars will try their best to leave their fingerprints here. The Zheng family has gained benefits and face, which can be said to have gained both fame and fortune.
"Haha, what a genius idea," Zheng Jiachun clapped his hands and laughed, "Brother Kang, sometimes I really want to split your head open and see what's going on inside."
The Zheng family supports the Hong Kong International Film and Television Festival, but it is just a matter of words. Kang Jianfei is now giving them advice. Not only do they not need to ask the Zheng family for help, but the Zheng family owes Kang Jianfei a favor.
As for the Dong family, Ye Laosan invited the Dong family out for a meal. The matter was settled and the Dong family firmly supported it.
The proposal to establish the Hong Kong International Film and Television Exhibition was quickly passed. However, the next thing was more troublesome, that is, dividing the cake.
For example, the dispute over the right to host and co-organize an exhibition, or the dispute over the television broadcast rights of the awards ceremony, these are still the most basic. Broken down to the specific situation, it is the selection of movies and TV series for the exhibition, which companies' works account for the majority, and which ones
The company's works are recommended first, and countless details need to be sorted out.
After all these are discussed, we will then determine the time for the exhibition to be held each year, the establishment of awards, the invitation of guests and other trivial matters. Then there is the external publicity and inviting many domestic and foreign peers to participate. These things are estimated to take a whole year.
