Chapter 255 Image Ambassador
"Next month is the opening of the Shanghai International Film Festival, and they want to invite you to be this year's image ambassador."

Ding Cheng took the invitation letter, opened it, not only the image ambassador, but also the judges?

"There are [-] A-category film festivals in the world, but there are only three in Asia." Sister Hua said with a smile, "You already have one in Tokyo, and now you are short of Shanghai and Busan."

"Although the Golden Horse and Golden Rooster statues crow for joy, it is actually just a prize for us Chinese to play for ourselves. In the eyes of foreigners, it is not very important."

Ding Cheng nodded, that's right, don't talk about the quality, just make sure the painting is solid, how can others play?
"Any international film festival must first be inclusive, what is that sentence called..."

"Be tolerant to diversity, tolerance is a virtue!"

"Who do you think is the chairman this time?"

When Ding Cheng saw Wang Xiaoshuai, he suddenly realized.

Golden Bear in Berlin... Golden Lion in Venice... Palme d'Or in Cannes...

People don't play in China at all!
"I can't help it, it's just a matter of style." Sister Hua said helplessly, "Last year's Forever and Ever was a god in the industry, but many viewers hadn't even heard of his name. That's the difference."

"If you are in business, you are competing for the box office, and if you are in art, you are trying to win awards. The differences are very clear."

After being baptized by Sister Tao, I now know very well that the two types were not the same thing from the beginning.

To put it bluntly, a distraction,
Another kidney failure.

The reason why literary films are not very good in China is mainly because the audience is too small, the aesthetic threshold is too high, and the pressure of life is high. Who would spend money to go to the cinema to find uncomfortable?
Wang Xiaoshuai, Jia Zhangke, Bi Gan...

Famous literary film directors can only travel across the oceans to try their luck abroad.

Sister Hua said casually: "In the future, do more of this kind of thing and get to know more people. If you don't write a good book every year, you can make at most one. Even if you don't make it, you won't starve to death, right?"

Ding Cheng sighed, and finally came to this step, although he will be the top of the mountain, looking at all the small mountains.

But it's also a little too high.

At least you can't shoot randomly, and the criterion is not just box office, but word of mouth is more important.

"It's okay to act in a drama, let alone you, Cheng Daoming is also suffering from idleness recently, and he is going to return to Renyi to have a good time on stage."

Seeing Ding Cheng's frustration, Sister Hua comforted her, "Or go to school as a professor and pretend to be aggressive in front of rookies. It's quite interesting."

Ding Cheng waved his hand, pondered for a moment and said: "It's not enough, there is still something to work hard to get a good script."

Sister Hua was stunned for a moment, as if she understood something, she said: "This means that you can say it, you can take on any role, you can challenge any character, and you wouldn't dare to play if someone else beat you to death."

Ding Cheng chuckled, this is my brother's confidence.

Others have basically said goodbye to low-cost production when they have reached this stage, but on the contrary, it is easy for small-cost production to take eccentric directions and produce good works.

It doesn't matter to me, the past two years have been acting with a small budget, the box office is small and the box office is big, and the word of mouth depends entirely on tap water, I have long been used to it.

Whether it's Wuyou, Xu Yinghua, or even the tens of billions of director Xu Wenzheng, there are signs of being overwhelmed by him?
Nonsense, invest 4000 to [-] million and get back [-] to [-] million directly, who wouldn't?

They were not the only ones who got the sweetness, Liu Tianwang, Fatty Yu from Bona, Du Qifeng from Yinhe Image...

In the eyes of several of their bosses, he is known as a lucky boy!

Suddenly received a call from Huang Bo and invited him out for dinner. This time he actually has a work shortlisted?
"When was it filmed?" Ding Cheng asked curiously after reading the script under the ice, "Has it been released?"

"Hey, it's really unlucky to say!" Huang Bo said helplessly: "The filming started in 15, and it was finished in 16. Because of your bold subject matter, you just got stuck in the review for more than two years, and it was only released at the Shanghai Film Festival last month. Pass."

Ding Cheng nodded, that's it. He smiled and said, "Why did I say I didn't hear anything?"

As a hot celebrity, Huang Bo won not as many awards as himself, but his box office appeal is stronger than himself.

No place in the top five!
The first film "A Good Show", with its strength and perspective as the director, had a box office of 13.5 billion yuan, and the cost was claimed to be 1.5 million yuan. The final account was 4.86 million yuan, and the return on investment was [-]%.

Huang Bo clinked glasses of wine with Ding Cheng, pointed to the script and introduced: "This is a suspenseful crime romance literary film. I will play the male lead, and the female lead will be Xiao Song Jia, Liu Ye, You Yongzhi..."

"Shooting at more than 60 degrees Celsius, it tells the process of how many losers at the bottom of the city fall and lose, and then redeem themselves."

"Shooting at Lao Maozi's border for several months, the temperature is minus [-] to [-] degrees, I'm exhausted!"

Ding Cheng didn't read the book specifically, since Huang Bo dared to act and invest, there must be bright spots.

The acting partner is also someone who is not afraid of anything, it's a pity that he didn't have the opportunity to cooperate, otherwise it would be very enjoyable.

"Don't worry, I will vote for you." Ding Cheng joked: "Foreign people really don't understand, if not, who will you vote for?"

"Hahaha..." Huang Bo laughed loudly, filled up the wine for Ding Cheng, and said jokingly: "This is all I need to find you, if I don't agree to live in your house directly!"

The two laughed. Although they had only met a few times, they felt that they hit it off.Regardless of origin or acting skills, there is a feeling of sympathy.

Especially Huang Bo, who has now transformed into a director. Seeing the big bald head making a lot of money every time, can he not be envious and jealous?
It's a pity that I don't have a good book, otherwise I will be the first to find Ding Cheng, and then add my own opponent...

Be nice!

Of course, favors belong to favors. If there is no good script, no amount of money can beat this kid.

Net worth of [-] to [-] million... Annual endorsement fee of more than [-] million... Hardware Grand Slam diamond sign...

Wang Jinhua...Cheng Daoming...Li Chengjie...Liu Tianwang...Xu Wenzheng...Du Qifeng...

Who in the entertainment industry can command him?
The two had a good time talking and drinking, Huang Bo is smart and has a frighteningly high EQ, comparable to Mr. He.

Chatting is easy and happy, many things don't need to be said, you can understand with one look, after all, you have climbed out of the bottom, you have done everything, and you have seen everyone.

After drinking for three rounds, Ding Cheng blushed a little and said, "Next time, as long as the script is good and nothing else matters, I want to play with you!"

"I'm just waiting for your words!" Huang Bo slammed the table and said excitedly with his face flushed: "We are committed!"

After drinking until late at night, Ding Cheng returned home, took a hot bath, and quickly sobered up.In fact, I was half drunk and half awake just now. As long as the script is good, everything else really doesn't matter.

Huang Bo is also a character who has climbed up little by little. With this role, he cherishes the hard-won reputation more than himself, and the chance of acting in a bad movie is very small.

This is also a major criterion for selecting scripts:
Who is the opponent?
It's not the same as Xu Wenzheng. After all, he played early, and now has a solid foundation, and the capital operation is smooth.

He is just starting out, and a film cannot represent anything. It may just be the audience's support, or it may capsize in the gutter.

The so-called "Under the Ice", if you don't go to theaters, it must be tricky. Will a work be kept secret if it is shot desperately?
Ding Cheng was a little curious, so he will take a good look at it when the time comes. For a good film, the evaluation is quite satisfactory, and it can only be said to be a qualified commercial film.

Literary films can only see the foundation, especially if there is suspense, Xu Yinghua has gone further in this regard.
