Chapter 355: Brother Kai, Brother Kai, I advise you to be kind
"Golden Rooster Award winner Xiaoming was crowned emperor, and a Mesozoic boy won the best actor award again!"
"The famous director Feng Xiaogang defeated the two great directors Tang An and Chen Kaige with "Assembly" and won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Director again. With one film, he achieved Grand Slam in three major film festivals in the mainland and became the first domestic director!"
"The Golden Rooster Awards had another double yolk award. Zou Xun and Jiang Wenli were crowned queens, and "Assembly" and "Chinese Partners" both won the Best Film Award!"
"Brother Chen Kai failed to win the best director, and "Mei Lanfang" lost the award!"
...
Now that the National Day is almost over and the Lunar New Year is still a month away, the Golden Rooster Award is considered a major event in the mainland entertainment industry.
What's more, Wang Xiaoming, who has always been criticized for his acting skills, won the Best Actor, and Feng Xiaogang defeated Tang An and Chen Kaige to achieve the three major mainland awards, all with the same movie. This is something that no one has done!
In addition to the regular reports, the others were satirical about Feng Xiaogang going back on his word and vowing never to participate in the selection of the Golden Rooster Award, but in the end he still went.
Some unscrupulous tabloids even compared Feng Xiaogang to a pug and used the term "fart, fart, fart".
And naturally, Brother Chen Kai turned around and fired at Tang An. It is indeed rare for a great director to fire at another great director of the same level.
"Brother Chen Kai blasted the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival, saying that the Golden Rooster Awards had violated the original intention of its establishment!"
"In the 18th Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival, which successfully concluded yesterday, "Assembly" and "Partners in China" became the biggest winners, while "Mei Lanfang", which was nominated for 6 awards, only won the best supporting actor award.
Regarding an award, Brother Chen Kai was dissatisfied with the unfair "prize distribution" of the Golden Rooster Award and accused the Golden Rooster Award of having no artistry!"
"Brother Chen Kai claimed that "China Partner" won the award only because of its high box office!"
"I severely criticize "China Partners" as being worthless and the award is not worthy of its name. Brother Chen Kai invites him to compete next year to celebrate the New Year!"
...
Tang An was speechless as he read the news in front of the computer. What did Chen Kai do when he was so full? Why didn't he talk through his brain?
I'm still too busy, I want to make a sense of presence and promote my new movie.
Xu Manyun said from the side, "These reporters are really good at editing. No matter what they say, it will become flavorless once it is published."
"They are in this business, what can they do?" Tang An said helplessly.
If you think about it with your toes, you know that Brother Chen Kai would not be stupid enough to invite a fight to him. He probably just said some dismissive words and despised himself.
But no matter whether he said harsh words or not, outsiders now know that Brother Chen Kai has attacked him head-on, and he will definitely fight back.
Tang An sighed.
Brother Kai, Brother Kai, I advise you to be kind!
Looking at Tang An's expression, Xu Manyun knew that he would not downplay it like this. If he was a second- or third-rate little person, Tang An's lack of attention could be regarded as disdain.
But if he still downplays it, others will think he is afraid.
Xu Manyun thought for a while and said, "Do you want me to call a press conference?"
"No need." Tang An shook his head.
"I don't have time to argue with him now. I guess a lot of reporters are already waiting to block me in Huayi."
There were a lot of preparations in the early stage of "Edge of Tomorrow" and he was so busy that he had no time to hold a press conference specifically for Brother Chen Kai.
"I will handle this matter myself. How is the script for "Painted Skin 2" prepared?"
"It should be fine soon, I think I'll be out in two days."
"Then make an appointment with Wu Ershan to come to the studio in three days, and then make an appointment to invite Yu Dong to come." Tang An thought for a while and said.
"What about Pang Hong?" Xu Manyun asked puzzledly.
Tang An said without hesitation, "Kick them out. Ningxia Film Studio is just a small studio and is no longer qualified to participate."
This is the case in any industry. The weak will prevail over the strong. Once the gap between the two parties is too large, you will no longer be qualified to cooperate with the other party.
However, Tang An remembered another person. Ningxia Film Studio is wholly owned by Ningxia Radio and Television Station, which has many companies under its umbrella. One of them is the chairman of Beijing Jiuzhou Cinema Line.
It is Jiao Canfen who is now the vice chairman of China Film Group Corporation.
"Forget it, let's call Pang Hong together." Tang An said again.
"Okay, I'll note it down." Xu Manyun nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Although I gave up some benefits, at least I got an extra partner.
Tang An was also helpless. These state-owned studios were intricately connected, with seven or eight people often holding deputy positions, and one person holding positions in several companies.
Just an ordinary person, the key is that this person Jiao Chanfen also held important positions in the General Office of Zhongyang and the National Five Yuan and General Administration of Optoelectronics.
It's better not to provoke him or not.
After the explanation, Tang An stood up and prepared to go out, "Then I will go to Huayi first to meet with the reporters."
"By the way, there is one more thing." Xu Manyun said suddenly.
"What's up?"
"House prices are rising faster and faster during this period. Otherwise, don't sell those houses and go directly to the bank for loans. Anyway, the rise in house prices will definitely be higher than the interest."
"But the maximum loan limit for a house is 70% of the total price."
How come Tang An hadn't thought about it? It's just that when the stall was just opened, a lot of cash was needed, and the money missing by 30% would be more than 100 million.
Xu Manyun explained, "I visited the branches of major banks in the suburbs. If the amount is large enough, I can get a loan of 90% of the total price!"
"Can I get a 90% loan?"
"That's right, branches in the suburbs have less business, and the house price changes every month. They have no reason to refuse such a high-quality asset!"
"Okay, the annual rent should be enough to cover the interest." Tang An nodded happily.
This is 210 houses. Selling a house these days means losing money. It would be best not to sell it.
Then Tang An went to Huayi to meet with the reporters for a while.
As expected, a large group of reporters were waiting under the building.
Before Tang An's car could stop, they were like wolves that had been hungry for a long time, swarming around him.
Tang An was so frightened that he quickly braked and stopped. If a group of people lay down under the wheels of the car, Tang An would suffer a big loss.
"Director Tang..."
"Hello, Director Tang...you are right..."
A group of people were beating the car windows there, not caring that the top-of-the-range Mercedes-Benz S600 could feed them two months of instant noodles with just one door!
No wonder they were so excited. It is very rare for top directors to quarrel with each other. It happens only once a year.
The security guards downstairs of the building also noticed something strange here, and even though they were surrounded by people, they couldn't recognize whose car it was.
However, judging from his appearance, he must not be an ordinary person. Several security guards immediately stepped forward to separate the reporters.
However, the reporters are outnumbered.
In the end, there was nothing he could do. Tang An made a call and immediately a team of security guards came down, and he was able to get out of trouble.
