The leaders of the film bureau expressed warm welcome and sincere greetings to Tang En's arrival, expressed great concern for strengthening the cooperation between China and the United States, and made long-term plans for deepening the friendship between the two sides. In short, Tang En received a lot of courtesy. As an international friend, I also participated in a large-scale film industry seminar. At the seminar, the filmmakers paid more attention to the "Film Promotion Law", which was related to their vital interests; the leaders paid more attention to the World Chinese Film Festival, which was related to their official achievements. Of course Dunn doesn't matter. In his opinion, two things are very outrageous. It's nothing but emptiness and a snake. In the end, the leadership has more power to speak. In the limited time of Dunn, I hope he can give valuable opinions on the establishment of the "World Chinese Film Festival". Dunn didn't need to hide his secrets, so he said seriously: "If you want to run a film festival well, especially a world-class film festival, you must have an accurate idea. For example, the three major European film festivals, the Berlin Film Festival's The characteristics are serious and political; the Venice Film Festival pays attention to the avant-garde of films and encourages film experimentation and innovation; the Cannes Film Festival likes masters and is partial to humanities." "If the emperor wants to hold a film festival, first of all, it must be clearly positioned. It is a category A film. , B-type film festival, or C-type film festival? There are thousands of film festivals all over the world, and there are 11 A-type film festivals. It is unnecessary to look like the 'Rome China Film Festival', which is ridiculous and An absurd film festival will not only not promote Chinese films in the slightest, but will become a laughing stock." Tang En is a foreigner, so he doesn't need to be hesitant when he speaks. Lao Mouzi's complaints at the dinner table yesterday can be said through his mouth. What is the significance of the Chinese Film Festival held in Rome? Going abroad to give awards to the films made by the leaders of the film academy? Brush up on international prestige? The reliance of the title? Miss Zhang's complaints are not unreasonable, Tang En wants to donate, it is really necessary to donate to the Drama Academy. The leaders were very serious, and they were trying to record something with their notebooks. Finally, the big leader said, "We want to hold an A-level film festival! The best film festival!" Tang En had already guessed it. , but shook his head and said, "Difficult! In my opinion, it is more reliable to hold a C-type film festival. Except for the three major European film festivals, including Tokyo, Montreal and other 8 A-type film festivals, they have all become second-rate and can only follow Drink soup behind the buttocks of the three major film festivals and pick out some leftovers. Even if the Chinese film festival will also target foreign language films, it started too late and has lost the opportunity to compete for the market.” A leader said: “We have a market!” Some leaders said: "We have policies!" Another leader said: "We have 1.3 billion people!" Some leaders said: "We have the fastest GDP growth in the world!" Dunn was speechless. The filmmakers present also said: "Actually, it would be good to have a C-category film festival, which is mainly based on screenings, not awards. If enough excellent films can be attracted to participate in the exhibition or even premiere, then our Chinese-language film The fame of the festival will be lost." Another filmmaker said: "It is true, the C-type film festival is not necessarily worse than the A-type film festival. In the past few years, except for the three major European film festivals, the most popular film festivals are not The remaining 8 A-category film festivals are the C-category Toronto Film Festival! We can’t compare with the three major ones, and winning Toronto is not a big problem.” Dunn laughed: “It’s true, why is the Toronto Film Festival strong? Because Toronto is backed by North America, the world's largest film market. For the same reason, the Cannes Film Festival is so powerful because Cannes is the largest film trading platform in Europe. Holding a film festival is like opening a hypermarket. It can be sold and sold. Money, that's enough!" The leader was very satisfied, "Mr. Walker, you mean... the mainland market is completely comparable to the North American film market and the European film market?" Tang En said sternly: "The difference will not be too big! If the reform is firm enough and decentralization to the maximum extent on the basis of reasonable supervision, the film market can flourish and grow rapidly. After all, it has the largest population base and the fastest economic growth in the world." China's film reform, There have been two major changes before. The first is the cancellation of unified sales and purchases in 1993; the second is the reform of theater chains in 2002. But in fact, the policy has been issued, but it has not been implemented at all. If it weren't for the emergence of "Hero" and the formation of an industry-driven policy, Chinese movies would still be dead. The leader said very seriously: "Resolutely implementing the reform of the film market is our unshakable basic policy!" The filmmakers were all excited one by one, as if they saw the arrival of the Chinese film spring. Started making suggestions. "As long as the reform policy is put in place, our film market can take off quickly!" "The film festival is so simple. Our film market is getting bigger and bigger and more important, and it will definitely attract the attention of foreign film companies. As long as the Chinese Film Festival introduces a policy, only the films that come to participate in the exhibition can be released in China! At that time, will the World Chinese Film Festival still be popular?" "Yes, yes! At that time, those foreign films will be released here in order to be released here. Even Hollywood stars have to come in batches!" "Haha, maybe they're crying and shouting to the premiere of the Imperial Capital!" ... Tang En was a little dumbfounded. Looking at this group of laughing filmmakers, a word popped up in my mind - mental retardation! What the **** is this idea? The problem of Chinese film seems to be far more than a problem of leadership! There are idiots everywhere. Including Laomouzi, all think that this method of promoting the World Discourse Film Festival through the method of "exhibition can be released" is very feasible. In contrast, leaders are more prescient. "Nonsense! It's a market economy now, how can we forcefully intervene with policies?" The big leader who presided over the meeting immediately interrupted the filmmakers of Qunhi, and glanced at Tang En carefully, and said with a smile, "We will definitely abide by the TO We will welcome the excellent Hollywood movies with a free and open mind." Dunn smiled slightly I understand! "The current national policy is to focus on economic development. To put it bluntly, it is to make a fortune in silence. TO is free trade, targeting both sides. As a result, the other side has opened up the market and accepted everything, but its own side uses Administrative intervention is too much! Even with administrative intervention, we have to keep a low profile, right? Quietly don't get caught, right? Hold a film festival, and then tell the world in a high-profile way that we, China, will not abide by the TO agreement. What's wrong with love! Is this crazy? The United States did not sign the "Memorandum of Understanding between China and the United States on Solving TO Movie-related Issues" until 2012 in response to TO's film breach of contract. Dare to come up with this now Not to mention that the leaders of the film bureau will step down, and the country's thriving economic situation will be deeply affected. Dunn has seen the huge destructive power of the trade war. The sensitive topic has not been continued. The leadership is very clever. After changing the subject and talking about some other relatively relaxed motions, Tang En also expressed his position at the right time, saying that he values the Chinese film market very much, and will deepen the cooperation between New Universal and Chinese films in the future. In the next two years, there will be two Chinese elements. The blockbuster movies of the company have been released worldwide, one is the cartoon "Kung Fu Panda", and the other is the live-action movie "Mulan". This will further bring the Chinese temperament to the world. This naturally attracted the leadership of the leaders. Surprise surprise. This kind of image project is very important, especially Hollywood movies, its influence is too great! It is much stronger than investing a lot of money to build Confucius Institutes abroad to fool foreigners to show the strength of a big country. Next, Tang En naturally He mentioned the real estate project in Magic City, and expressed his willingness to deepen the cooperation between the two sides and derive more peripheral industries through movies. In short, there are many benefits! The leaders are very happy. When I heard Tang En said that he planned to donate 100 million to the Academy of Drama Yuan, the leaders are happier when they help China's film industry.. Nine Heavens God Empero
