Chapter 941： Film Promotion Act

Head to head Hollywood 941 Author Qian Duxue Full text 3360 words

One-on-one Hollywood Chapter 941 movie to promote the French world's richest man to come to China, which caused quite a stir. However, for ordinary people, it has little influence, and the mainstream media will not compromise with capital and promote the concept of "the world's richest man", only talking about the famous Hollywood director and young entrepreneur Dunn Walker. However, for the film industry, the scope of influence is still quite large. Dunn's plane landed in the imperial capital, and most of the filmmakers in Beijing went to meet him. Not only old acquaintances Miss Zhang, Lao Mouzi and others, but also the Wang family brothers, Feng Pants and others were present. Tang En didn't have a good impression of the Wang brothers. In contrast, it was better to be frank and direct when dealing with Miss Zhang. The chaos in the mainland film industry basically stems from two forces. First, it is the filmmakers of the Hong Kong government who brought money, money laundering, and godfather culture. The second is the Wang family brothers. The two set off a domestic "water army" culture. In order to remove obstacles for Feng Pants, directors with a higher level than him have spared no effort to blackmail whoever is hotter. "Welcome! Welcome! This time you're here to help us a lot!" Laomouzi went all the way up and shook hands with Tang En warmly. There were more than a dozen staff members, assistants, bodyguards, etc. around Tang En. They were a bit grand, and they laughed: "I have a lot of people, have you brought a car?" "Yes! It's all ready!" "Okay! Then go eat first! Eat and talk!" In front of old acquaintances, Tang En was not polite. For the first time in so many years, when I returned to China, I really wanted to eat authentic hometown dishes. Lao Mouzi was stunned for a moment, and his wrinkled face immediately showed a bright smile, "Okay, no problem, let's go!" At this time, Miss Zhang also came over, took off her sunglasses, sweet and greasy. Called: "Brother Tang." Tang En glanced at her, nodded, and said "um". Lao Mouzi invited Tang En to China this time, indeed for a big event, a very important thing for Chinese films. The General Administration of Film will promote and promulgate the "Film Promotion Law". China still lacks a bill specifically for film protection, film control, film supervision, and film support. All the provisions are issued in the form of ministries and commissions. This is so painful. Because there are many changes in the day and night, the development of Chinese films has always been frightened, for fear of another "six gentlemen" incident. With clear legal provisions, there is a creative basis, and filmmakers will not be caught off guard by a sudden superior order. In May, a preliminary draft of the "Film Promotion Law" was formed, and in June, it was reported to the State Council. Now is the stage of drafting and forming the first draft of the "Film Promotion Law", and widely soliciting opinions from people inside and outside the industry. The entire Chinese film industry is enthusiastic and actively participated in an attempt to make this "Film Promotion Law" more complete and reasonable. Laomouzi invited Tang En for reference, mainly because he wanted to use his international vision. This group of filmmakers and film bureau officials in China are mostly local creations and lack an international perspective. In order for Chinese films to go abroad, this "Film Promotion Law" must conform to the international trend. Laomouzi didn't know much either, so it was just right to invite a big guy like Tang En over. When Tang En was in the car, he simply listened to the introduction of the other party with a calm expression. What can be said? It's really not good to hit the enthusiasm of these poor and hard-working filmmakers in the mainland. He had foresight, he knew some secrets. The "Film Promotion Law" was proposed as early as 1984, and it has been shelved for various reasons. Until 2002, a "Hero" came out, which led to the reform of China's film industry. In 2003, the General Administration of Film could not sit still, and officially took the lead in organizing the drafting of the "Film Promotion Law", which was highly anticipated by the industry. It's 2004 and it's the hottest time! But in fact, it can only be a basin of cold water. In February 2005, the director said: "The drafting of the "Film Promotion Law" has entered a substantive stage of operation. We will strive to come up with a draft legislation this year and strive to include it in the national legislative plan." In August of the same year, the deputy director said: "The "Film Promotion Law" will seek opinions from the industry before the end of the year, and strive to submit it for approval in 2006. In 2008, China Film also stated that "the draft of the "Film Promotion Law" has been finalized and submitted to the Legislative Affairs Office of the State Council." Then, there was no news. Later, the mainland movie market became more and more prosperous. The United States noticed it and began to use international relations and diplomatic relations to put pressure on the mainland to abide by the TO agreement, open the movie market, and allow more Hollywood movies to enter. Out of desperation, the leaders went to the United States to sign the "Memorandum of Understanding between China and the United States on Resolving Issues Related to TO Movies", made a series of adjustments to Hollywood movies, and agreed to increase the quota of 20 overseas movie-sharing movies by 14 per year. The quota of some special accounts-sharing movies and the box-office proportion of overseas movies have also increased from 13% to 25%. Finally, Hollywood is coming! The General Administration of Film was frightened, for fear that mainland films would lose their vitality under the impact of Hollywood, and must use legal means to protect domestic films, and began to quickly start the draft that had been shelved for many years. After 4 years of active operation, the "Film Promotion Law" was released in November 2016 and came into effect on March 1, 2017. At this time, the film market has been seriously deformed. The artist leader said that China's film officials are full of idiots, but I can't do anything about it. What can be done about this? He can make a movie like "Titanic", when it was released on the mainland in 1998, be released in some big cities without any reduction, showing cultural confidence and artistic openness. But it could not change the situation in which the big scissors continued to exert their power when the 3D version of "Titanic" was released. Tang En looked at Lao Mouzi's bright red face, and he was a little embarrassed to speak, and suddenly asked: "By the way, aren't you going to make a new movie?" Lao Mouzi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I'm still working on the script. , adapted from a Chinese drama." Tang En knew as soon as he heard it, it should be "Golden Armor in the City", smiled and glanced at Miss Zhang who was with him: "Are you the starring role?" "Me?" Miss Zhang shook her head. Laomouzi said: "The heroine of the new film is a queen, and it doesn't match her image..." Tang En blinked, "Are there any supporting actresses?" Miss Zhang raised her hands, "I have already quit!" Mouzi hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "My investor, company boss...he will decide the candidate." Tang En understood as soon as he heard it. That's the perk of making movies. In Hollywood, casting directors have a lot of power. Including first-line superstars, must be confirmed and approved by the casting director before signing. If the casting director does not agree, even if the producer and director like it, they cannot sign the contract. This is the operating system of the industrialized process. As for those ordinary small roles, the casting director can decide in one sentence. In the mainland...or the mainland commercial film market driven by the Hong Kong government's film culture, there is almost no concept of "casting a director". Female number one? Female number two? The big boss's investors are directly hand-picked! For other roles with more roles, the director and the producer are divided by one point, and it is almost the same. For the remaining small roles, let the assistant director choose whatever they want, and that's fine. The casting director... Usually when casting a group, it needs to be used, and the power is severely shrunk. When filming "Heroes" and "House of Flying Daggers", Boss Zhang, the investor behind Laomouzi, might not dare to mess around in order to make money, and he used some big-name experienced actresses. Starting from "The Golden Armor in the City", Boss Zhang has experience, money, and confidence. After working hard for Chinese movies for so many years, it's time to enjoy it. Tang En understood this special environment, so he nodded, "The movie cannot tolerate the slightest sloppy, especially the relationship between investors." "Of course!" Laomouzi nodded immediately. Dunn gave him a deep look and said nothing more. Click till. In addition to Boss Zhang from the mainland, the financial master behind Laomouzi is Jiang Zhiqiang from the Hong Kong government. However, Boss Zhang was really annoyed when he stuffed an unknown female No. Later, the film's revenue fell short of expectations, which led to the breakup of the three parties. Otherwise, with Jiang Zhiqiang's overseas prediction and operation ability, I am afraid that it will not promote the filming of a movie with seriously controversial values ​​such as "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling". Seeing that the atmosphere was a little cold, Miss Zhang said with a smile: "Brother Tang, did you agree to my role?" "Ah? When did I agree to you?" "Mulan!" Miss Zhang raised her chin and said . Tang En glanced at her, "I didn't promise you." "During this time, I watched the cartoon "Mulan" more than 20 times. If I played "Mulan", it would definitely look better than the cartoon! "Miss Zhang said reluctantly. She has a big heart, and the domestic film circle can no longer satisfy her, and she is all about going to Hollywood. However, she does have this power. As we all know, visas in the mainland are very troublesome, and it is very painful for celebrities who often go abroad. However, it is not a problem for Miss Zhang, she has a special pass and a green channel. It is the only one in the mainland entertainment circle. Tang En pondered for a while, and said: "New Universal intends to deepen the cooperation with the mainland film market and make some films about oriental culture. At present, Pixar is making a cartoon about Chinese giant pandas. If nothing else, "Flower" "Mulan" will be launched this year." "Wow!" Miss Zhang screamed excitedly. Once "Mulan" starts, there is no doubt that the heroine must be her! At this age, in the whole world, is there a yellow-skinned actress redder than her? Laomouzi said: "No problem, tomorrow I will help you introduce people from the film bureau, you can talk about it!". Nine Heavens God Empero
