Liu Yishou collapsed in his seat, and Zhang Hong came on stage for the third time in embarrassment.
Fortunately, the award guest this time was a middle-aged actor. The two of them only shook hands and did not hug. The other party just teased, "Look for me to film a movie sometime" and gave up the seat.
Zhang Hong was very satisfied, at least his clothes would not get dirty again.
You know, this is a six-figure custom-made item.
In his previous life, he had seen the news. Someone went to a luxury store and bought a dress. After wearing it once, he took it to be washed, and the dress was ruined.
When I went to a luxury store to ask for an explanation, the clerk was still surprised:
"Ah? Are there really people who buy dresses from our store who would wash them?"
People's targets are all kinds of celebrities who want to go on stage or on the red carpet.
The dresses worn by those celebrities are almost never worn a second time...
And they will also avoid matching clothes at the same ceremony.
Zhang Hong also had to lament that it is so difficult to be a star.
So instead of being a star, he just needs to be a director who makes money.
Gee, if you think about it this way, it’s quite funny that you had to make "Flags of Our Fathers" even though you were losing money.
Shaking his head, Zhang Hong began his third acceptance speech.
"How should I put it? It feels like time flies by so fast. The last time I came to the Feitian Awards stage, it seemed like it was just ten minutes ago."
Zhang Hong told a joke to liven up the atmosphere.
but......
The air at the scene seemed to be colder than before.
It also smells of aged lemon sourness.
Zhang Hong hurriedly made amends: "Actually, it's just that I'm lucky, not that I'm very capable. This time, I also got an unexpected investment of one billion from China Heavy Industries to produce the TV series "Mobile Suit."
And not counting the publicity and distribution costs, the actors' remuneration is not much, which means that the cost of 40 million for a single episode is basically spent on filming and post-production. We also built a special filming base, even one-to-one Gundam
Several models have been built.”
Zhang Hong rubbed the back of his head and said modestly: "Actually, all the directors present have my level of investment, and they can all shoot better than me, really!"
The scene was so silent that you could almost hear a pin drop.
If you have a thermometer, the temperature at the site must be below zero.
So cold!
"Anyway... Come on, everyone! One day you will also meet your billionaire investment! Thank you everyone!"
Accompanied by...
There was no applause. Zhang Hongsan walked off the stage in two steps, passed by Wu Dingguo with complicated eyes, and returned to his seat.
Liu Yishou grabbed his hand and said tremblingly: "Quick...quick! In my left jacket pocket...Quick-acting Jiuxin Pill!"
Zhang Hong panicked and hurriedly went to dig out his clothes pocket.
After taking out the medicine bottle, Zhang Hong hurriedly opened it.
Then he froze.
Because what was poured out was not a quick-acting heart-saving pill, but a memory card.
"This is?"
Facing Zhang Hong's doubts, Liu Yishou stopped pretending and showed a fatherly smile on his face: "These are stills and behind-the-scenes of your four episodes in "Blood Youth". They can be considered a gift to you. Xiaohong
,Congratulations."
Originally, this gift was intended to be given to Zhang Hong to encourage him when he came back empty-handed from the Feitian Award, but now...
Liu Yishou sighed secretly in his heart.
Don't say anything to encourage him now. After giving him this thing, he can be out of sight and out of mind.
Sigh... so sour...
And in the future that can be seen with the naked eye, this kid will definitely gain a lot from the Golden Eagle Award.
"Thank you, Uncle Liu." Zhang Hong took the memory card and stuffed it into his pocket.
There is no need to say anything if you are moved. Anyway, if Liu Yishou needs it in the future, he will definitely come to help.
By now, the ceremony has come to an end, and the host is trying his best to heighten the atmosphere with a warm tone on the stage.
But it didn't work, everyone's reaction was very cold.
Still very sour.
Just... very boring.
Everyone originally came to the award ceremony happily, but then they met a weirdo like Zhang Hong!
You could say he was causing trouble, but that's not the case.
But this is the most annoying thing!
After all, everyone is in the film and television industry, and you can tell whether a person is sincere or just pretending.
They really saw that Zhang Hong was speaking from his heart. He didn't want to show off. He was not even excited about winning the Feitian Award.
A newcomer who has only been in the industry for a few months has directly won two important awards for "Outstanding TV Series" and "Outstanding Actor". Where does this make us, the old-timers, look down?
Suddenly, the Feitian Prize is coming to an end.
Zhang Hongmo rubbed his chin: "Uncle Liu, do you think this Feitian Award video will cut out part of our acceptance speech?"
His main concern is being blocked.
If you are banned, you won't be able to make money from filming.
"No." Liu Yishou glanced at the two trophies in his arms, and then felt the weight of a trophy in his hand. He tried to hold back his sadness and explained, "If we really want to target you, then the two important trophies at the end
You simply can't get it.
Don’t worry, based on my understanding, it may be slightly edited out, or it may not be edited at all.”
After a pause, Liu Yishou said solemnly: "The Feitian Award is not a live broadcast because it is more serious, but the Golden Eagle Award in half a month will be broadcast live on CCTV! Don't let your group of people mess around again then."
"I'll try my best." Zhang Hong sighed, "Uncle Liu, my focus is not here right now. I just want to make money."
He whispered: "Uncle Liu, how do our TV series make money?"
He really doesn't know this.
"Clouds Fall into the Red Dust" was sold by Lin Muqing to Jixing Video for a flat price of 30 million.
"Mobile Suit" was given to CCTV for free by China Heavy Industries, and Zhang Hong received the money saved from the budget.
As for "Flags of Our Fathers"... which left Zhang Hong impoverished, I heard that the old people were planning to give it to CCTV for free.
Then Zhang Hong still had no money.
But... there is a saying. There are probably a lot of directors and actors begging CCTV to show their films for free. If there is no way, there is no way you can give them to others for free.
Liu Yishou glanced at him and felt that his teeth were even more sore.
This guy doesn't even know how to make money by filming a TV series, and how can he win the Feitian Award...
Shaking his head, he explained: "Actually, there are several types. For TV dramas, it's the same type. Find someone to invest, and then you get a salary. If you are a capable director, you can also negotiate for dividends, and then you get the money after the film is produced.
Go sell it. Find out whether it is sold individually or in a package.
In the future, we may be able to obtain peripherals, DVDs, and online screening rights. Anyway, it’s a lot of mess.”
In fact, this is why popular TV series are competed by TV stations and websites.
TV stations are for ratings, and websites are for traffic.
When the ratings and traffic are high, they can ask advertisers for higher prices, and more businesses will be willing to advertise.
Zhang Hong smacked his lips: "I always feel that... TV drama directors don't seem to make much money."
"If you compare it with film directors, it is indeed the case. Film dividends are higher, but to be honest, the probability of a film hitting the street is also greater." Liu Yishou shrugged, "If we say they are all at the top of the pyramid, the income and status of film directors
They are all a bit higher than those in TV series. However, the income of the middle and lower class is definitely not as good as those in TV series."
Zhang Hong thought thoughtfully: "Then I think it's okay to challenge a movie?"
His name is Zhang Hong. In order to make money, there is no problem in transporting past life movies shamelessly.
It's a pity that I can't move it because I don't understand it at all.
Even if he can dictate the plot, the effects produced by different people will be completely different.
"Oh? You want to make a movie?"
A voice that was relatively unfamiliar to Zhang Hong sounded.
Looking up, Zhang Hong found that the award ceremony was over and the crowd that had just applauded enthusiastically had dispersed.
There were several directors and actors who originally wanted to come to see Zhang Hong and become familiar with them, but now they don't dare to come - at least they have to wait until there is no one around.
Who dares to come here now, and they are not in the mood.
But the person who spoke out didn't care at all.
"President Wu." Liu Yishou stood up and pulled Zhang Hong up, "Xiao Hong, let me introduce, this is President Wu Dingguo of the China Film and Television Association."
Zhang Hong stretched out his hand to shake his hand and said with a smile: "Hello, President Wu."
He had seen this person before, the same person who kept looking at him with an elder smile when he was on the stage.
It seems that the Chinese Film and Television Association is still an official organization, and seeing that Uncle Liu respects him so much...
With Uncle Liu's character, he wants to respect him, which means that this boss is a ruthless character.
After shaking hands with Zhang Hong, Wu Dingguo patted Zhang Hong on the shoulder and smiled happily: "You are young and have a lot of promise! Come on! I hope you can bring the Chinese film and television industry to new heights!"
"By the way, I heard you guys talking about movies just now, right?" He looked Zhang Hong up and down, "TV series and movies are indeed two different things, let's put it this way."
Wu Dingguo pondered for a few seconds and made a decision: "If you want to make movies in the future and practice your skills, you can come to me. Our Television and Film Association has funds to support young directors. I can give you approval when the time comes. Although the money is not much, only a few hundred
Wan, but it can be used to test the water."
With that said, he took out his phone and opened the chat software: "Here, scan the code and add a friend."
Zhang Hong: "..."
The old man is really cool.
He silently took out his mobile phone and added the boss as a friend.
"Okay, let's talk. There are many interesting attractions and snacks in the capital that you can try. I have a meeting to hold, so I'll leave first."
Patting Zhang Hong on the shoulder, Wu Dingguo left.
Watching the boss leave, Liu Yishou smiled and said: "Yes, it's good to be able to catch up with Chairman Wu. Xiaohong, what are your plans for the past half month? Are you going back to Los Angeles or just waiting for the Golden Eagle Award in the capital?"
"
"Just wait, finish your time and go back." Zhang Hong pinched the bridge of his nose, "I'm still thinking about what to do next."
While the two were chatting, Zhang Hong's phone rang.
When I picked up the phone, it was Lin Muqing calling.
"Hello?"
"Zhang Hong, Wang Ye contacted me just now and said that Mr. Liang has something to ask you."
Zhang Hong was stunned for a moment: "Ah? What's the matter?"
Lin Muqing's voice was still cold: "Fuso and people from several European national TV stations came to the door. They want to introduce "Mobile Suit"."
ps: Just got home, next chapter will be in the middle of the night.
