rising director

……

With the release of the Nortel score of "Infernal Affairs", the media has something to hype.

"The birth of a masterpiece, the graduation work "Infernal Affairs" directed by Wan Xiaohu won the highest score in Nortel's history, and it is also the only one with a perfect score of 100!" - "Beijing Youth Daily".

"Wan Xiaohu handed in a satisfactory answer sheet, "Infernal Affairs" graduated with a perfect score of 100!"

"What is the charm of "Infernal Affairs". It is recognized by all the teachers of Nortel? According to Zheng Dongtian, a professor of the director department, "Infernal Affairs" is comparable to Chen Kaige's "Farewell My Concubine"."

"Hong Kong films are not just talking about the rescue of the market. Wan Xiaohu's "Infernal Affairs" won the highest score for Nortel's graduation work."

"The road to redemption of a commercial director, the art of "Infernal Affairs" is supplemented by Wang's business, rewriting a new chapter in Chinese films."

"How can such a film be banned? Nortel teachers collectively chose to violate the rules? Why didn't Radio and Television let it go?"

"It is reported that the film group has reached a contract with Dandelion Films. It will introduce "Infernal Affairs" and release it in the mainland and Hong Kong at the same time. It is only because the radio and television industry has been delayed in approval, so it has been delayed again and again."

"Why can't we see good movies? Because they were banned! There was "Alive" before, "Ghost is Coming" recently, and now there is "Infernal Affairs". This is the tragedy of Chinese movies!"

All of a sudden, everyone found out. "Infernal Affairs" occupied every corner of the newspaper.

It has to be said that the audit by Radio and Television is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it did cause trouble for Wan Xiaohu, and on the other hand, it was their cooperation that made the topic so hyped up.

As the saying goes, everyone has curiosity, the more you don't let others see something, the more others will like to watch it.Originally, many people may have an attitude of watching "Infernal Affairs" or not.Now that I heard that radio and television broadcasts were going to be banned, I immediately became excited like a chicken blood.

There must be good things in "Infernal Affairs", otherwise why would it be banned!

"We want to watch "Infernal Affairs."

Taking advantage of the trend, many people who like to watch movies began to write books one after another, or called the relevant radio and television departments, or posted messages online.Those with a little connection went directly to the newspapers and criticized the radio and television.

The triple pressure from the media, Nortel and the audience, coupled with the film's public relations operations, is not enough.Wan Xiaohu personally visited the committee members again, and even made a booklet explaining the movie in detail, and sent it to all the committee members.Members please be sure to put "Infernal Affairs" aside.

Under this kind of pressure, the National Film Censorship Committee can no longer maintain its original attitude. One of the committee members, Zhang Jianyong, editor-in-chief of "Contemporary Film", said in the media: "We have not banned "Infernal Affairs", we are still discussing As for the plot of the movie, as far as I am concerned, it is a classic and good movie, but we must hold the attitude of being responsible for the audience and review it carefully and carefully.”

Director Xiao Guiyun, who is also one of the committee members who graduated from Nortel, said: "It is certain that the film will not be banned, but there are some details that need to be considered. We will contact Director Wan Xiaohu as soon as possible and discuss quickly. , directly release those that can be released, and strive to let the movie meet with everyone as soon as possible."

"Han Sanye, work harder, I feel that the review committee has loosened up."

"Xiaohu, you still have a lot of ghost points, don't worry, I've done a good job in public relations, and within a week, the movie will pass the review without cutting a knife."

"Then I would like to thank Mr. Han. Without your old methods, I would be miserable this time."

"Haha, you little boy, no flattering is allowed."

Everything was as Mr. Han expected, and after a week, the dust settled.

Mme time online red character Tu version.

"Great news, "Infernal Affairs" has passed the review of radio and television, and will be available in major theaters across the country on June 6, and will be released simultaneously in Hong Kong. The premiere ceremony is held, and everyone is welcome to watch the film and cast your precious vote for "Infernal Affairs."

At the beginning of April, "Infernal Affairs" started to promote intensively. Because it signed the most favorable 4% sharing contract with the film group in the mainland, Dandelion Film Company also invested a large amount of money for the film's promotion.This kind of import split, if the split is too low, it is not cost-effective for the producers to participate in the promotion, and there must be hope to be motivated.

At the same time, Hong Kong and Taiwan regions are handed over to Universal Films for promotion, and the sales in Southeast Asia will also be handed over to Universal Films in the future.In Korea and Japan, Dandelion contacted the Korean private dus company. The two parties had a happy cooperation on "My Sassy Girl". Naturally, they will continue to cooperate this time.

Originally, Dandelion's main work was on "Infernal Affairs", but something happened.

A heartening surprise.

The fo broadcasting company from the United States is very optimistic about civilian talent shows such as "Pop-dol" and "Super Girl", and has always wanted to introduce copyright.It's a pity that because the two companies are in a copyright lawsuit, they have not been able to tell the winner. Naturally, the copyright cannot be traded. It was not until the end of March that the International Court of Justice ruled that the copyright belonged to "Super Girl".

So, fo company approached Dandelion and offered to buy the copyright.

Neither Dandelion nor MapleStory were familiar with the copyright transaction fees of entertainment programs, so they asked Wan Xiaohu for advice.Wan Xiaohu didn't understand either. Based on the principle that business is a bargain, the people in the company shouted a copyright fee of [-] million US dollars. If the plan scares others, they changed their words and said it was [-] million yuan.

This trick can not be said to be neither ruthless nor tricky.

It's just that the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and the fo broadcasting company on the opposite side was also ruthless, directly cutting two-thirds of it, and only agreed to pay 3500 million US dollars to buy the copyright.

At that time, the negotiators of FO may be proudly thinking that they should be able to frighten the Chinese company by cutting so hard.Don't dare to ask for a high price.But they never expected how shocked Wan Xiaohu, Su Ya, and the executives of MapleStory were when they heard this price.

"I'll pick, 3500 million US dollars, hello. Are you sure you mean US dollars and not RMB?"

"This Yankee has a lot of money, or what?"

"Mr. Su, Mr. Wan, you don't know. I was so scared at the time. This is faster than Mr. Wan, you can get money for making movies! I almost agreed. But after thinking about it, they are willing to pay 3500 million US dollars, and there must be more The high price, so I resisted not agreeing."

"Talk, keep talking. Talk hard!" Wan Xiaohu gave the highest instruction.

It’s a pity that there are gains and losses. The first time was a mistake by the FO company, which accidentally missed the bottom, but Dandelion’s negotiators were shocked, and they also missed their bottom line. The FO company insisted on 3500 million US dollars and did not let go. After many weeks, the copyright of "Super Girl" was finally bought for 4000 million US dollars.

"Young. We are so young!"

Knowing the final result, Wan Xiaohu could only feel so emotional.This time neither side knew what the other was doing. FO thinks too highly of China's entertainment program copyright, and Dandelion too looks down on her own copyright. In the end, even though they all got a price that far exceeded expectations, they still feel that they have lost a lot.

fo was thinking they could get it for $1000 million and it ended up costing $4000 million.

Dandelion and MapleStory lamented that they could have sold the copyright for $7000 million. It sold for $4000 million.

"Earn a fall and gain a wisdom. After knowing the copyright value of entertainment programs, I can't make this kind of mistake again." Wan Xiaohu made a summary for the company's executives at the "Super Girl" copyright summary meeting, "Take advantage of this For some time, the second season of "Super Girl" has not yet started. The company has made money again. I propose that all executives spend a month to go to the UK and the US to investigate the market, to understand how other people operate entertainment programs, and to avoid future Suffering again internationally. Especially the awareness of copyright must be strengthened!"

"What Mr. Wan said is very reasonable. We are all frogs at the bottom of a well. If we don't go out, we will never know what the outside world is like. I will seriously organize the management of the company to study abroad."

"At the same time, we also need to expand the production team, hire creative designers with a lot of money, and produce more entertainment and interactive programs!" Wan Xiaohu emphasized, "I will also spare time to provide some ideas."

When Wan Xiaohu said this, "National Talent Show", "National Show", "National Voice", "National Star Jump", "Big Variety Show", "Dancing Miracle" flashed through Wan Xiaohu's mind. ", "Where Are We Going, Dad" and other entertainment programs we have watched...

"Super Girl" sold the copyright, although it made money, it was not Wan Xiaohu's main concern. His career focus was still on movies.

Dandelion Film Company, Wan Xiaohu Director Studio.

Wan Xiaohu, Ning Hao, Xing Aina, Yue Xiaojun, Cheng Er, Liu Yang gathered around the desk to discuss.

""Crazy Stone" didn't dig deep enough. This multi-line narrative method still has a lot to do. Ning Hao, I think if you want to make a classic graduation work like Tiger, you should still It is necessary to dig on this multi-line. The idea of ​​"Crazy Racing" proposed by Tiger is very good and worth digging in depth."

This discussion is nothing more than Ning Hao's new movie direction.

With the great success of "Crazy Stone", which detonated the stone phenomenon, audiences all over the country are now praising Ning Hao, the box office and DVD sales are very good, naturally, Ning Hao also knows the taste, and wants to continue to make a big splash in commercial films Fist.

So Wan Xiaohu came up with the movie "Crazy Racing".

In the last track, this was Ning Hao’s truly successful movie, with a box office of over [-] million, making him the fourth director in China with a billion-dollar hit. In the eyes of later generations, the racing car may not be as classic as Stone, but it has done more in terms of commercialization. It was very successful, and Wan Xiaohu naturally wouldn't let such a good movie run aground.

After discussing for a while, Ning Hao's work direction for the next stage was basically determined.

To shoot "Crazy Racing", the script was prepared in the early stage, and the filming was prepared in the later stage, and the filming should be completed within two years.Ning Hao is not a fast shooter like Wan Xiaohu, and he has not yet graduated, so he needs to work and study, so the shooting time will naturally be longer.
