Entertainment: I never eat free food

Huabiao Award.

In the judges lounge.

Shen Lang opened the door and cupped his hands: "I'm sorry, I'm late, I'm late, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Zhang Bing looked at his junior brother with a smile: "It's okay. You've been busy recently. It's awesome. Ghost Blowing the Lantern earned 830 million in box office in 7 days. Junior brother, you've made it again."

Li Zili handed over a piece of paper and took Shen Lang's arm: "This is Jeremy Lin, Jiang Yu, and Chen Hao. They are all your senior brothers."

Shen Lang said quickly: "Brother, okay."

Jiang Yu smiled and held Shen Lang's hand: "Junior brother, you are so handsome. I have long heard that our Nortel boss is a handsome guy. Today I saw that he is really handsome. I will arrange it tonight."

"I'm coming, I'm coming. I've only made you busy. You can't come to a fast place like Beijing. How can I invite my senior brothers to come? In the evening, I'll call Sister Hongyue and the teacher. Let's have a drink together."

Chen Hao nodded: "I haven't seen the teacher for a long time. It's been arranged well, that's it."

Jeremy Lin lit a cigarette: "Junior brother, what do you think of this film restoration project?"

Shen Lang scratched his head: "Movie restoration?"

Zhang Bing introduced: "You, Brother Lin, are now the director of Xiying Film Studio. You know, Xiying Film Studio has been a little lonely in the past two years. It is looking for a development direction. It has also been restructured in the past two years, and it is no longer popular within the system. , Xiying is a bit difficult.”

"If you can help, please help."

Shen Lang thought about it for a while: "Brother Lin, the road to film restoration is average. Even if you re-screen it, you can only sell the film copyright. Many copyrights are held by major companies. If you re-screen it, you have to buy it earlier and then Then repair it, and finally sell it to an online video platform. It won’t make much money, at most 10 to 20 million a year.”

"Is ten or twenty million too little?" Jeremy Lin was excited when he heard ten or twenty million.

Shen Lang scratched his head and looked at this senior brother.

"How many?"

“Much older!!!”

Shen Lang...Okay, he really didn't expect Xiying Studio to be so lonely now.

"Brother, Xiying has been around for almost 60 years now, right?"

Jeremy Lin nodded: "A full 60 years."

"I think we produced countless stars when we were good at attracting movies. At that time, Xi Film Studio was one of the six major film groups in China. Now, it has been a century. Among the national film production units, Xi Film Studio was The film was the first to win the highest award at an international A-level film festival, ranked first in the country in terms of the number of international awards it won, and ranked first in the country in terms of film export volume. So far, 76 films have been exported to 36 countries and regions.

In the 1980s, the media was underdeveloped and there was no Internet. People knew Xi'an and were familiar with Xi'an. Many of them got to know Xi'an after watching the movies of Xi'an Film Studio. Xi'an Film Studio promoted Xi'an to the whole country. Promoted to the world, Xi'an became an "Internet celebrity" city at that time. "

Zhang Bing continued: "The most eye-catching period must be the 1980s. From 1986 to 1988, it was the golden age of Western movies. The 1986 film "Old Well" directed by the famous director Wu Tianming, Best story won at the 2nd Tokyo International Film Festival in 1987 The film "Red Sorghum", shot in 1987 and directed by the famous director Zhang Yimou, won the Golden Bear Award for Best Feature Film at the 38th West Berlin International Film Festival in Germany in 1988! For a time, Western Film represented Chinese cinema.”

He also spent time in Xiying and he knows the history of Xiying very well.

Jeremy Lin continued: "Following on, director Chen's Farewell My Concubine, Lao Mouzi's "Red Sorghum", director Xie Fei's "Scented Soul Girl", director Wang Quanan's "Tuya's Marriage", mainland Chinese films have so far won Italian awards. There are three films that have won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice International Film Festival, two of which are from "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit" and "No One Less" directed by Xiying Lao Mouzi, and the other one is directed by Jia Zhangke "The Good Man from Three Gorges".

I was full of pride when I said this.

Shen Lang nodded. It was true that Xiying was very powerful in the past, but with the entry of foreign blockbusters and the entry of private capital, the 1990s should be the most difficult time for Xiying. Many talents After leaving the factory and drifting to the north, Lao Mouzi, Director Chen, and others all went out to work alone. The backbone left, and Xiying was left with an empty shell. If it can still persist until now, it is already good.

Li Zili curled his lips: "What's so awesome about Xiying? I'm from Changchun. Let's stop talking about history. What's the point? A temporary glory should be permanent? Can you live more clearly?"

Jeremy Lin..........Hey, you really know how to pick off my valve core.

Shen Lang chuckled lightly: "I think, senior brother, you can change the direction. Nowadays, online movies are quite popular. They are small-production, low-cost horror movies. They are quite profitable. I have connections. You can find them." If you hire a director, script writing will become even easier. There is no shortage of screenwriters at Xiying. Earning one or two small goals a year is just like playing. As long as you can put down your figure, the money will be the same as picking up money."

"A low-budget horror film?"

Jeremy Lin knew what kind of movie Shen Lang was talking about. It was really chilling for them to make that kind of movie at Xiying... After all, Xiying was very good at it.

"Whether you want to shoot or not, if you don't want to shoot, our Changchun Film Studio will shoot. Damn, just make money, why do you care if he shivers or not. If you can't let go of your status, you should stop being the director. If you continue like this, the new studio will be closed down. You are still choosy. Junior brother, introduce me to someone. I will take it." Li Zili interrupted.

"Damn, I didn't say I won't shoot, but I need to discuss this with the director." Jeremy Lin was still a little hesitant, but this money is very important. Now the Xiying Studio is really...unable to recover once, twice, and three times. If it continues like this, it will really go bankrupt.

He needs to find a way to make money!!! In this society, you really can't live without money. Although Xiying will not starve to death, it really needs money to develop. Without money, everything is difficult.
