Chapter five hundred and sixty nine people of all colors
Bona was the first private distribution company in the mainland, and then Huayi joined in. At the same time, Bona gradually invested in film and developed in the field of production from the beginning, and the two companies naturally formed a competitive relationship.
Xinhao Media's popularity on the screen from "Wulin Waizai" to the rise of the dark horse in "Stone", made the Huang brothers very jealous. At first, they wanted to try to get in touch, but they also wanted to acquire it.
Unfortunately, Xinhao Media did not follow suit at all. In addition, even Bona, who has a close cooperation with Xinhao Media, did not successfully acquire it, which temporarily stopped the Huang brothers.
But immediately after the success of "Double-Side Sticker", "Luxing", and "Double Donkeys" were shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival, forcing the Huang brothers to start looking at this family again, rising rapidly Xinhao
Media.
None of the movies and TV series produced by Xinhao Media failed. Although they don’t have many works, this is a miracle in the field of investment in film and television dramas that are very risky. What’s more important is their movies and TV series.
The investment is not big, they are all classic examples of using small profits to make a big profit.
Think about it, Jiang Wen's investment of 60 million yuan in "The Sun Rises As Always", but he was already ecstatic to be shortlisted for Venice. But he was also shortlisted for "The Double Donkeys", and the cost was not even as high as "The Sun".
One tenth of that.
Although Jiang Wen has had successful examples, "The Sunny Day" won both reputation and box office; although "The Devils Are Coming" is banned from domestic screenings, with the support of the Cannes jury award, overseas copyright income is still good.
Not only can you recover your investment, but you can also make a small profit.
But after all, an investment of 60 million is too risky!
Huayi has always paid great attention to directorship, and movies are the art of directors. Since holding the ace Feng Pants in his hand, he has also targeted Jiang Wen. Even though Jiang Wen was banned for five years, Huayi invested in the "
"Seeking Guns" and "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" Jiang Wen are both male leads, and the work itself has a strong personal style of Jiang Wen. Unfortunately, Jiang Wen is not involved in the trap at all.
In 2004, Feng Xiaogang and Huayi brothers had a brief leave Huayi after their term expired, but Wang Jinghua's job-changing almost caused Huayi to suffer a catastrophe. Fortunately, Huang Zhongjun, who had already noticed the signs before the incident, signed the person back again.
Huayi Brothers made great contributions to the pants director. Although the "Night Banquet" has a bad reputation, it has at least restored the decline for the precarious Huayi Brothers. In addition, with the joining of Zhou Xun, Xiao Minghuang, Deng Chao and others, Huayi
Brothers have obviously made a comeback now.
Although the Huang brothers failed to win over Jiang Wen, they renewed their contract with the pants director and also carried out in-depth cooperation with other potential directors, such as Lu Chuan, Uncle Gao Qun, Cao Baoping, etc.
"Stone" became popular, and Ning Hao suddenly became a popular item, but unfortunately the third master took the lead. However, with the launch of "Double-Side Sticker", "Luxing" and "Double-Donkey Record", the big guys in the circle have been released one after another, and the
Suddenly I discovered that Xinhao Media is not only Ning Hao, but He Xin is not only an actor, he is also the promoter behind these projects.
His combination with Ning Hao is very similar to the combination of Huayi Brothers' film director Chen Guofu and Feng Pants. It should be said that Huayi Brothers can quickly emerge from the decline of Wang Jinghua leading a large number of artists, and these two people are definitely worthy of this.
.
Especially Chen Guofu and Huayi Brothers have launched many influential works in recent years, such as "Kokexili", "The World Without Thieves", "The Ghost in the Heart", and "Assembly Call" that has not yet been released and has begun to hype in advance.
, starring Zhou Xun and Deng Chao, "Li Mi's Conjecture", which has not yet been started, is full of Chen Guofu's shadow behind these movies.
As a trader who has never failed, he especially learned that He Xin was planning a spy war movie project with a very novel theme with Uncle Gao Qun, which naturally aroused Huang Zhongjun's interest.
An investment of 20 to 30 million may be considered a big production for Xinhao Media, but for Huayi Brothers, it is just a medium-investment project. The risk is not great and I have never missed it. It is a good investment project.
Of course, it would be even better if the two companies could reach closer cooperation in the future through cooperation.
Xinhao Media’s current cooperation with Bona is nothing more than that Bona is willing to invest in their film projects, and also has the distribution capabilities that Xinhao Media does not have.
All the Huayi brothers have this kind of conditions, and the Huang brothers are even ready to come up with more favorable conditions than Bona. This is why Huang Zhongjun took the initiative to strike up a conversation today, and after failing, Li Bingbing came out to test He Xin's words.
Unfortunately, He Xin is only interested in Li Bailian, and is probably a joke to the Huayi brothers... After all, it is still a matter of trust. At least since "Green Grass", the cooperation between the company and Bona has always been relatively pleasant.
Have a certain basis for mutual trust.
On the one hand, He Xin is not familiar with the Huang brothers; on the other hand, it comes from the various negative news about the Huang brothers he saw on the Internet in later generations. Regardless of the authenticity, it can at least prove that the Huang brothers' eating habits are too ugly.
.
Not to mention anything else, just say that after Fan Xiaopang terminated his contract with Huayi at the beginning of the year, the Internet was almost full of negative news about Fan Xiaopang, and you can get a glimpse of it.
Of course, He Xin is not stupid either. He will not say that he is like the male protagonist in some entertainment novels, with all kinds of pretentious actions such as not taking anyone seriously, and saying no to say anything at the beginning.
After all, the Huang brothers are now big shots in the circle, so he can't make a strong enemy for himself for no reason. What's more, with the Huayi brothers participating in the competition, should Bona be more generous
?
Although I couldn’t cooperate in the end, I still used the artists from your company and everyone was happy. Isn’t this good?
So in the face of Li Bingbing's temptation, he could only give in a false sense, um, ahhh, not a trace of the slightest touch. Li Bailian was very unhappy, but at the same time it was very consistent with the normal logic of business negotiations.
Oh, by the way, another very important reason is that compared to the Huang brothers who are just businessmen, Yu Dong can at least be called a filmmaker.
Of course there is a relationship between filmmakers and filmmakers.
...
It should be said that the Huabiao Award and Feitian Award were held in the first and second days, which was quite humane. After all, whether it is an actor, a director or a behind-the-scenes staff, everyone is very busy, and two are held in two days.
The award ceremony allows everyone to allocate their time better.
So many of the people present were old faces. They just participated in the Feitian Award the day before, and today they appeared at the Huabiao Awards ceremony.
Before the award ceremony, regardless of whether there are any conflicts in private, under the care of the reporters' cameras, everyone greeted and greeted each other enthusiastically. Although He Xin has always been low-key, he is no longer a fledgling rookie, and many people have taken the initiative.
Come and say hello to him.
"Hello, Teacher He!"
"Xiao He, congratulations!"
"Well, young man, there is a future!"
“…”
Uh, the person who said this is a tall hairline, a mole on his chin, wearing glasses, he looks a bit like Grandpa Mao, but he is not as friendly as Grandpa Mao, but he is arrogant and looks like "
I am the teacher” man.
Unfortunately, He Xin didn't know the other person.
"This is a famous screenwriter, editor-in-chief of "Movie" magazine, and one of the judges of this year's Huabiao Awards, Mr. Zhao Baohua."
When He Xin heard Yin Li's introduction beside him, he suddenly realized that it was the "master".
People like this often have a title called "film critic", which is commonly known as well-known or influential film critics.
This kind of person is probably the one that filmmakers are most reluctant to offend, and they love and hate. They often have no positive effects on the movies, but they can destroy the bad things one by one. Some of the energy-rich
It can even affect the direction of policy formulation by relevant departments.
As for love and hate, it may be that after collecting the money, they are willing to praise you. Even if it is a bad movie, they can also praise the movie as a flower through their pen. But if they don’t give money, or if the opponent gives it to you.
If you have money, even the national teacher will be criticized by them.
"Oh, Teacher Zhao, hello!"
He Xinmeng politely stretched out his hands to shake hands and greet the other party, and put his posture very low.
There is no way, I would rather offend a gentleman than offend someone who holds a pen.
It was our first time meeting. Teacher Zhao was quite satisfied with He Xin's performance. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and his chin was slightly raised, which was a response.
There were many people on the scene, in addition to the guests, there were many people wearing white shirts, including Teacher Zhao, who also wore white shirts. Although they were all dressed very low-key, they were not even able to take good care of them at the awards ceremony. But in
On the scene, they were all centered.
They are all members of the jury. As a government award, each session will have a huge jury. Except for a few necessary professional judges such as directors, actors, screenwriters, etc., most of the rest come from the publicity of relevant departments of the country.
Most of the entries are at the department level.
Of course, there are also high and low levels between white shirts. For example, Teacher Zhao, who was arrogant in front of He Xin just now, turned around and saw him nodding in front of another white shirt. Gongjin was like Jiang Wen's movie "Evil"
The role played by Shi Hang in "Not Overcoming the Righteousness".
"Little Congratulations!"
One tall and the other is short, two middle-aged women walked towards him.
"Teacher Yue! Sister Jiang Shan!"
He Xin went up to welcome him.
These two are the only two actress judges at the Huabiao Awards this year. Women can stand halfway through the sky, with four actor judges, two men and two women. The other two male actor judges are famous Chinese actors Liu Peiqi and Bayi
Liu Zhibing, the head of the factory actor troupe (a handsome middle-aged man, the husband of Xiao Baicai Ruping).
"Xiao He, you are really amazing now. This time you go to Venice to fight for a movie hero!" Jiang Shan said with a smile.
Looking at the former Bai Yueguang, He Xin felt a little emotional. Jiang Shan, who had been divorced for many years, has now found a boyfriend who is nine years younger than her. It is said that the two met when they collaborated on a family ethics drama, and their boyfriend is not named.
The scriptures also play her son in the play.
But no matter what, at least Jiang Shan and the two of them were completely different when they filmed "Conquest". A sense of happiness from the bottom of their hearts was filled with her face, and she looked much younger.
.
Sure enough, women need to nourish themselves. This flower that was about to wither is now obviously becoming brighter again.
As for her nine-year-old boyfriend, He Xin couldn't tell whether he was envious or jealous. In short, it felt very uncomfortable.
Of course, on the surface he still smiled and said, "Sister Jiang Shan, I dare not think about the actor. I just went to join in the fun and participate."
"Then the actor tonight doesn't dare to think about it?" Jiang Shan suddenly asked again, and his charming eyes blinked at him.
"ah?"
He Xin suddenly felt a sudden jump in his heart. Although in his mind, the Huabiao Award may be one level lower than the Golden Rooster Award, it does not mean that he doesn't want to win it! He sat in the National Grand Theater for more than two hours last night.
In the end, I was empty-handed and still felt very unhappy.
There is no way. Teacher Li Youbin's "Bright Sword" is too popular, and Teacher Wang Wufu is a special actor in the commander-in-chief, so he has no temper at all.
Unfortunately, among the four nominees for the outstanding male actors of the Huabiao Awards, Mr. Wang Wufu happened to be the leading actor in the movie "On the Taihang Mountains" and occupied a shortlist. Then, in addition to He Xin himself, the other two were
It is Feng Gong in "Don't Treat Yourself as a Cadre" and Fidelity in "Tengou".
To be honest, in his eyes, Mr. Feng is probably the role of running. But Li Tiangou played by Fidelity Long is really good. Although it may not be as exaggerated as the performance of handsome young man in another time and space, He Xin is in the cinema
I was shocked when I watched it. Even if he did, he would ask himself that he could surpass Fidelity Long's performance.
Four actors were shortlisted. According to the tradition of the Huabiao Award, the probability of two winners is 50%. However, one of the four people is running with them and the other is a cheat, and the rest is a competition between him and Fidelity. To be honest, he
No confidence in my heart.
At this time, he received a hint from Jiang Shan. Although he knew that the inside information must be accurate, he still subconsciously looked at Teacher Yue Hong.
Teacher Yue Hong nodded slightly at him with a smile.
"Uh, thank you Teacher Yue! Thank you Sister Jiang Shan!"
He suppressed his inner excitement and lowered his voice to thank his two sisters.
Although these two judges' sisters are not enough to decide the ownership of the award, it goes without saying that they must have voted for themselves.
"Tsk, thank you verbally?" Jiang Shan said proudly.
"Sister, then what do you think is appropriate? Otherwise, my prince's mansion will set up a table tomorrow, what do you think?" he said hurriedly.
"That's about the same." Jiang Shan nodded with a smile.
However, Yue Hong thought about him and said, "You are leaving the day after tomorrow, or you will talk about it later when you come back. Maybe it can become a celebration banquet!"
"No, I don't have time to come back, so I can't go back to the capital. Let's go tomorrow. After I go back and book, I will send you text messages to your phone. The two sisters will call your family together." He Xin said happily.
When Teacher Yue Hong saw him insisting, she couldn't help but smile and said, "That's great. My Ian is your little movie fan. She has long been clamoring to see you!"
"Oh, Ian should take the college entrance examination next year, right?"
He Xin remembered that after filming "The Two Donkeys" last year, Teacher Yue Hong also asked her daughter how many signed stills he asked for.
"I finished the exam this year and got into the Director Department of Beijing Electric." Teacher Yue Hong couldn't help but show pride when she talked about her daughter.
"Yo, then there will be a female director in the future."
He immediately responded with great support, and then smiled at Jiang Shan: "Sister, don't forget to bring your one too. Although I don't know him well, he is from the Central Academy of Drama at least.
Senior brother!"
Jiang Shan's face turned slightly red at first, then shook her head and said with a disgrace: "Forget it, I'll take our family here."
As she said that, she seemed to deliberately change the topic and said, "Don't forget to bring your family with you."
"Oh, she can't do it. She's going to film in the group."
"That's really a coincidence..."
Just as we were chatting, we heard someone laughing from beside us, "It's so lively!"
The three of them all turned around and saw Mr. Han and a white shirt wearing glasses, about fifty years old.
"Dr. Han!"
"Director Guo!"
He Xin didn't know this white shirt, but just followed Yue Hong and Jiang Shan to call him.
"Xiao He, don't know me, let me introduce you to you. This is Director Guo of the Party Newspaper Literature and Art Department. He is also one of the judges of this year's Huabiao Award."
He Xin's eyes lit up when he heard this. He hurriedly held the other party's hand with both hands and said with gratitude: "Hello, Director Guo! Thank you, especially thank you!"
As for what I am grateful for, everyone knows it. A comment from the Party Newspaper once said: The level of spy war dramas has created the recognition of "The Hidden" by the whole society, and the craze has remained unabated.
The Director Guo was obviously very humorous, holding his hand and smiling: "What should I call you, He Xin or Comrade Yu Zecheng?"
