Chapter 689

In early 2001, Xiao Qian was very busy.

In January, "The King of Destruction", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", in February, "Eastern Success", in March, Tang Hua Leran's "Blue and White Porcelain".

In April, there is another big project that everyone is looking forward to.

The Sino-Korean co-production "My Sassy Girl" will be released soon.

According to the latest meeting spirit, co-productions will definitely be the mainstream in the future. And many people are still focusing on co-productions between mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

As a result, Starlight has taken the biggest step and has actually reached the level of co-production between China and South Korea.

The industry is waiting and watching to see how this co-production will perform.

If it succeeds, other companies will be emboldened.

"You guys, you've got the wrong idea. What do you call a co-production between mainland China and Hong Kong and Taiwan? That's not our internal matter?"

Wang Zhongjun was on a business trip to the Magic City and stopped by Xingguang as a guest, presumably to learn from the experience.

No matter what is going on inside Huayi, as a top domestic film and television production company, Xiao Qian is still willing to open up and express his opinions.

This life is very different from the previous one. The entertainment industry in Hong Kong and Taiwan has been almost exploited by Xiao Qian. Facing the scale of the mainland industry, there is no advantage at all.

Under such a situation, if we still try to make any co-productions with Hong Kong and Taiwan, it is tantamount to giving Hong Kong and Taiwan a life-saving blood transfusion.

Xiao Qian has already had an affair with Li Jianguo, and will use the next five to ten years to completely digest the entertainment and cultural industry in Hong Kong and Taiwan, making it an integral part of the Chinese entertainment industry as a whole.

Under such circumstances, the co-production model cannot fall on Hong Kong and Taiwan in any case.

If people over there want to film a movie, they can do it as a local production.

Of course, since it is a local production, all aspects of capital, preparation, content, and actors can only follow mainland rules.

After a few times, practitioners in Hong Kong and Taiwan became familiar with the rules and enjoyed the dividends of a larger market, so they no longer remembered any difference from the mainland.

I didn't do this well in my previous life.

We call ourselves one country, one family every day, but in the end we have to set up barricades openly and openly. How can we treat people as one family?

Just like Xiao Qian, you have to use the method of boiling a frog in warm water while striving to improve your own strength, and gradually integrate the two markets into one.

The same is true of allowing others to make money, one is suppressing others to make money? The other is absorbing money? In the end, it is self-evident which one has the better effect.

Wang Zhongjun’s Chinese art is rooted in the imperial city? He also has a background in his family? Of course he knows a lot.

He doesn’t admire anyone in the entire domestic film and television industry? He only admires Xiao Qian.

"Mr. Xiao, will such a good thing happen again in the future? In any case? Give us Huayi a hand?"

Xiao Qian opened her arms to him, and also to all her colleagues.

"Let's all work together, and you will find out how much potential our market has."

The schedule of "My Sassy Girl" has been confirmed. It will premiere in China on March 30, 2001. It will premiere in South Korea two days later.

This is the first time that domestic audiences can enjoy the same movie-watching experience and time as overseas audiences.

In the past, when overseas films entered the country, they would inevitably go through a long review period before they could hit theaters and meet audiences.

This difference is not too obvious now, but how many years from now? With the increasing development of information, even if it is just a few hours difference, the impact will be immeasurable.

Imagine a movie comes out, and it only takes a few hours for North American audiences to watch it? The viewing experience and spoilers can be spread all over the world, which immediately makes the movie less attractive.

If you want to avoid this kind of trouble, you can only try your best to shorten the intermediate issuance process? Try to reach a consensus.

But does this involve local film protection policies around the world? It cannot be achieved by just improving distribution.

Co-production is the best compromise.

Because "My Sassy Girl" can also be regarded as a Chinese film, it naturally avoided many obstacles.

Xiao Qian has already cleared the review channels for the film and submitted it as early as last winter.

In addition, I paid special attention during the filming and there were no violations, so the review was very fast and the schedule was confirmed at the end of March.

Why did you choose to release it at this time?

Because around April, the cherry blossoms in China and South Korea will begin to bloom.

There is an extra song "Sakura Ending" in this movie. Even for this song, it is worth booking the movie during the cherry blossom blooming season.

The film censorship process in South Korea is very simple, so publicity has already started.

In China, as soon as the release permit was obtained, the promotional plan was quickly launched.

This time Xiao Qian made a creative publicity arrangement, which was to divide the creative team into Chinese and Korean parts, and conduct publicity on both sides respectively.

Kwak Jae-yong and the heroine Jun Ji-hyun are responsible for promoting in South Korea, and Shen Teng is responsible for promoting in China.

The main reason is that each other's market recognition is not high. If they are promoted together, the effect will not be good.

However, as the first Sino-Korean co-production in history, the effect is still very strong.

The industry and audiences are full of expectations for this movie, and they have expressed that they will go to the theater by then.

What makes the audience dissatisfied is why the male and female protagonists are so unknown?

Since it’s all a Chinese and Korean co-production, why should we find some popular actors?

For example, it would be great to let Shen Jue and Li Zhenxian play the roles!

Xiao Qian doesn't know about the resentment from the outside world. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

When he makes movies, he never cares about the actor's reputation.

No matter how famous he is, can he be as famous as him?

With him around, the work will not worry about being famous.

The most important responsibility of an actor is to bring out his acting skills in line with the role.

In early March, "Blue and White Porcelain" was released, and China's ancient and gorgeous porcelain art once again made waves through the form of music.

The lyrics, which are full of oriental poetic imagery, immediately disturb the listener's mood.

The combination of the cultural factors that have been passed down for thousands of years and modern pop music bursts out amazing energy.

"A song called "Jiangnan Green", who knows what the song means?"

Mr. He personally wrote a review for "Blue and White Porcelain", which quickly spread and attracted people from all walks of life to appreciate the song.

In the eyes of many people, "Blue and White Porcelain" is more than just a pop song. The exquisite and natural wording captures the soul of poetry and is worth studying.

Nan Huaijin, a master of traditional Chinese culture, said: "There are many ungrammatical words in this song, but when combined together, they are unique and interesting. This is the uniqueness of the beauty of Chinese characters, and it also tells

How we choose words and make sentences does not require too much

Follow the established rules and authorities too much. Times are changing, and so is the application of language. The emergence of any language habit has its inevitable background and trend of the times. There is no need to force it, there is no need to restrict it, and appreciate the uniqueness between words.

If it’s beautiful, it’s good.”

Good guy, two top figures in the cultural world stepped forward to support "Blue and White Porcelain", suddenly elevating the song to an otherworldly level.

Many people have begun to feel that listening to "Blue and White Porcelain" is not only listening to a good song, but it can also cultivate sentiments and cultivate cultural literacy.

The popularity of "Blue and White Porcelain" brought the greatest benefit to Tang Hua Leran.

Through this song, Chinese style music quickly became a phenomenon, not only enthusiastically sought after by young people, but also favored by the older generation.

As the country becomes stronger and stronger day by day, the lives of the people are getting better day by day, and spiritual enjoyment and strength are also being integrated into the trend of historical development through these subtle ways.

Xiao Qian only followed Tang Hua Leran for three days. Seeing that they were still sweeping across the world, he felt relieved and ignored them.

This band is becoming more and more famous now, with countless fans at home and abroad.

Any movement can cause huge waves, which really saves the company a lot of energy.

Xiao Qian, who was relieved, was just about to start working on "My Sassy Girl" when Weng Zhian found him and brought him unexpected news.

"Xiao Qian, there is news from Hollywood. Miramax has prepared a movie, which is related to kung fu. It will be directed by Quentin Tarantino, and they want to invite Yang Yue to be the action director.

There is great sincerity there, I just want to ask you, does Yang Yue have any work arrangements recently?"

Invited by Hollywood to serve as action director?

Xiao Qian was confused, but still told the truth.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult. I will have to pay my dues in the second half of the year. My movie plans have already been arranged."

This year, Starlight plans to film three consecutive action movies. In addition to "Sword Laughter" which is already being filmed and "The Best in the World" which is currently being prepared, Xiao Qian is planning to personally shoot another one in the second half of the year.

Yang Zhen, who has taken a good rest for a year, will make a perfect comeback, and Xiao Qian is ready to create a textbook-level action movie.

Yang Yue, the number one martial artist in Starlight, must be in the team.

Weng Zhian was a little confused. Obviously, Hollywood had to go to Starlight to hire people, which gave him a sense of accomplishment.

"Otherwise, they have sent the script over. You can take a look. If it doesn't work, they will also shoot in China next summer. Let's continue to negotiate."

I even sent you the script. Are you so sincere?

Xiao Qian took it from Weng Zhian and saw the title of the play at a glance.

"Kill Bill"

Without opening it, he threw it directly back to Weng Zhian.

"Refuse it, we at Xingguang won't shoot such rubbish works."
