In the spring of 1996 AD, artillery fire continued in the waters off Taizhou for several months.
Unable to bear the disturbance, the people ran wild, screamed and watched, and became very noisy, finally attracting the attention of the media.
In order to reflect the demands of the people and restore the truth of the facts, the journalists of "Audio and Video World" who put their righteousness first bravely came to the front line (again).
"Mr. Xiao, long time no see."
Xiao Qian's face was gray, and she completely lost her free and easy manner.
His skin was dark and seemed to be covered with a layer of mud.
There is no way, every day on the set, I wake up early and stay late, exposed to the sun and rain, so I can be cool and unrestrained.
"Hey, Reporter Wang, long time no see."
The reporter from "Audio and Video World" is an acquaintance, having interviewed Xiao Qian before.
Reporter Wang is called Wang Yun. He is in his thirties and in the prime of life. When others like to hide in the office and blow off the air conditioner, he takes the initiative to run on the front line.
It's a bit hard work, but those who work in the entertainment media will have more contact with entertainers on the front line. Over time, the connections established are far beyond what others can compare with.
In the industry, Wang Yun always receives news faster than others, which is inseparable from his hard work and shrewd communication skills.
Others don't know that in Wang Yun's own work notes, there are strict divisions among interview subjects.
Among them, Xiao Qian belongs to the first-class ranks, and is the only one.
In other words, in Wang Yun's opinion, any interview about Xiao Qian cannot be missed under any circumstances.
He had known Xiao Qian three years ago.
At that time, Xiao Qian was just a newcomer in the entertainment industry. He had some popular works, but his influence was limited.
In just three years, Xiao Qian has become the number one player in the domestic entertainment and culture industry and the most overlord that cannot be ignored.
If you want to understand the trends and trends of China's entertainment and cultural industry, Xiao Qian is the best way.
Standing on a high place and looking at the fake sail warships on the sea, Wang Yun couldn't help but admire them.
"Mr. Xiao, you really spent a lot of money on this movie."
Xiao Qian was also in high spirits.
"We spent more than 20 million yuan just to make these props. If we hadn't received some sponsorship, it would have even exceeded 30 million yuan."
Wang Yun took a deep breath and quickly recorded the situation.
If this report gets out, it will definitely cause a sensation.
In today's domestic film industry, there are very few films with production costs exceeding 10 million.
Only "Armageddon" can compete with "The Opium War" in terms of cost, and the three films should be counted together.
In terms of the cost of a single movie, "The Opium War" is the highest in China, including Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Many people are waiting to see what effect this movie will have.
In the past few days, the reporters received by the studio include almost all domestic media. Even some media that have nothing to do with entertainment culture have sent reporters to collect news.
The biggest major event in China at present is to welcome the return of Xiangjiang.
A century of humiliating history, starting from the Opium War. The loss of Xiangjiang is the biggest sting.
"The Opium War" is a tribute to the return of Xiangjiang. The country invested a lot of resources to promote history to the public.
One can imagine the intensity of publicity for a movie with such a main theme.
What satisfies Xiao Qian the most is that the state helped Starlight Culture conduct a thorough science popularization.
Audiences in China's entertainment and culture industry always pay most attention to the celebrity artists standing in front of the stage, and they think these people are the most amazing.
As for the agents and entertainment companies behind the scenes, ordinary people don't deliberately know about them.
From a business perspective, of course entertainment companies also need publicity.
Otherwise, the value of the product cannot be maximized. And once there is a conflict between a popular celebrity and the company, the entertainment company will have no means of compensation.
Therefore, it is very important to enhance the company's brand effect.
Xiao Qian certainly hopes that after "Xiao Gongzi's Works", Starlight Culture can also become a brand recognized by the public.
From now on, as long as the products produced by Starlight Culture, even if they are not made by him, can be purchased and appreciated by the public, it will be even better.
Therefore, during the interviews over the past few days, Xiao Qian consciously weakened himself and highlighted the existence of Starlight Culture.
Sure enough, with the continuous media reports, Starlight Culture began to appear overwhelmingly in the public eye.
In particular, the process of Starlight Culture's participation in "The Opium War" was talked about by the public because it was full of drama.
Many people know a fact.
That's the work with the main theme, which actually doesn't make money.
Especially in recent years, main melody works have become increasingly annoying to the public due to insufficient quality and monotonous content.
Except for movie viewings organized by government agencies and institutions, most theaters and distribution companies stay away from main theme films.
Under such circumstances, Starlight Culture, which had nothing to do with "The Opium War", resolutely invested in the production of the film in order to better promote history to the public and promote patriotism.
What kind of spirit is this?
"As far as I know, this movie has nothing to do with Starlight Film and Television. So why did Mr. Xiao join in? Did he see the prospect of this movie?"
Xiao Qian sat on the stone, crossed one leg and just looked at the depths of the sea.
"Haha, you may not believe it. The script of this movie has been completely changed after I joined. What you see now is not in the original plot. If it were shot according to the original script,
I dare say that this movie will definitely be a hit. What do you think the future of such a movie will be?"
Wang Yun clenched his pen several times, but finally gritted his teeth and did not record this passage.
He knew very well that once this passage was published, Xiao Qian would offend many people.
He is on Xiao Qian's side and cannot cause trouble for him.
"Why is that?"
"Because it's The Opium War."
Xiao Qian's answer was concise and concise, but powerful.
Wang Yun was speechless, savoring it carefully, but found that there was a long lasting charm in this short sentence.
There was no need for him to ask anymore, Xiao Qian took the initiative to speak.
"What do you think of our entertainment and culture industry now?"
It's quite novel for a reporter to be asked a question.
If it were anyone else, Wang Yun would definitely ignore it. But since it was Xiao Qian, he thought more about it.
"It's... pretty good. The entertainment industry has developed rapidly in recent years and is very popular with the public. There will definitely be great potential in the future."
"So what do you think of our country?"
Another sudden question made Wang Yun even more confused.
"Our country? There are still... a lot of problems, and there are still many things that need to be corrected."
By this point in the conversation, Xiao Qian had already settled into her own rhythm.
"Yes, our country still has many shortcomings. This country was reborn in ruins and transformed into poverty and backwardness. No matter who looks at it, we are still far from the world's advanced level."
At this point, his voice suddenly became louder.
"But do you believe it? In just thirty years, maybe less than thirty years, we will see a completely different country. At that time, our people will be extremely proud of this country. We will prove to the whole world
, we not only have an ancient history, we also have the courage to be reborn."
The sun warmed, casting a glow on the young man's face.
"Our entertainment and culture industry seems to be in full swing, but it is too impetuous. Our literary and artistic workers have not realized the determination of the country and the people. If this continues, we will become a burden to the country and the nation."
Xiao Qian raised her head and enjoyed the gentle sunshine.
"What I have done is just hope that one day in the future, when our country stands tall and proud, we literary and artistic workers can stand beside the motherland with peace of mind and share the prosperity of the country. We can become the helper and help for the motherland to take off, and
It’s not the burden of indulging in wine, sex, fame and wealth. I just hope that at that time, we can be worthy of heaven, earth, and heart.”
Wang Yun was stunned, all his mind was taken away.
[That day, that sea, that boy, and those words stirred up in my heart every time, making me dare not slack off at all. Especially when I saw the country becoming more prosperous day by day, I understood the feelings of that boy even more. I was filled with emotions.
Lingering in my heart, I can only say one sentence. We are so lucky to have you on the way forward.】
Several years later, Wang Yun's diary was released.
This passage moistened the eyes of countless people.
At that time, Xiao Qian was already shining brightly and had achieved everything he wanted to achieve.
