rising director

Zeng Zhiwei also interjected: "Yes, Xiaohu, you are an expert. Hua Tsai wants to do something, so you can help him. I also want to get involved, but you all know that I can't save money in my pocket. To dismantle one and two, we can only wave the flag to cheer."

Wan Xiaohu blinked.

Liu Dehua's plan should be the "Asian Rising Star Guide Project" on the previous track.

Liu Dehua has always had a strong interest in investing in movies. In the 02s, he established Tianmu Film Company, but he didn't make much money. Later, he died. In [-], after the release of "Infernal Affairs", Andy Lau's career reached its peak.I am busy with records and movies, and I make a lot of money.

On the basis of Tianmu back then, Yingyi Entertainment Company was established, continuing the wish of the year and investing in movies.This year, "A World Without Thieves" directed by Feng Xiaogang has Yingyi Entertainment's investment.

Subsequently, Yingyi Entertainment launched the Asian Rising Star Guide Program.Liu Dehua announced the price increase of his film salary, and then took out the film salary of his three films, a total of 1250 million Hong Kong dollars, as financial support, and later increased it to 2500 million Hong Kong dollars to support 7 young directors from Singapore, Malaysia, and China, Taiwan, Taiwan and Taiwan to film 6 A Chinese HD movie.

"Crazy Stone" by Ning Hao.It is part of the Asia Rising Stars Program.

It is not only the business expansion of Yingyi Entertainment, but also the real support for new directors. It is a successful plan that wins word of mouth and box office.

But this time, Liu Dehua will probably be disappointed. "Crazy Stone" has already been filmed, and it will be very difficult to invest in such a good movie.

"Hua Zai, your plan is good, why don't we make this plan together." Wan Xiaohu thought for a while. "To be honest, I am very rich now. If the company has a lot of money on its books, it has to be deposited in the bank for interest, and there is nowhere to spend it. It is right to support new directors of Chinese-language movies."

"Xiao Hu, you want to make this plan too?"

"Yes, now I feel that Chinese films are indeed very dangerous. The market is sluggish, and everyone is reducing production. The mainland is reducing production, and Hong Kong is also reducing production. Taiwan has almost no production. And there are only a few big productions in the mainland to support, and the rest All of them were filmed just to get some state subsidies. It’s very regrettable if this continues.”

In fact, without Liu Dehua's proposal, Wan Xiaohu would sooner or later plan to support new directors.

If you are good at learning, you will be an official. The concept of Chinese people has mixed to a certain level.Naturally, he will not be satisfied with just being a great director.Either return home to show off everywhere, or "be successful and benefit the world" and regard yourself as the savior and benefit the people.Wan Xiaohu also wanted to try what it would be like to be the godfather of the Chinese film industry.

"Andy Lau, since we support Chinese-language movies, let's make it bigger!"

"How to make it bigger?"

"It's very simple. I will take the lead in the mainland, and you will take the lead in Hong Kong. We will attract a group of film companies and celebrities. We will build a big brand, called the Chinese New Star Director Project, invest [-] billion, and support [-] films. Chinese-language high-definition movies. Regardless of mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, or Singapore, as long as you are a new Chinese director, as long as you want to make a Chinese-language movie with a Chinese heart, you can apply to join the Chinese-language Rising Star Director Program, and we will invest in him to make movies!"

"[-]? One hundred? Xiaohu, you are too bold." Liu Dehua was shocked.

His original intention was to spend more than 1000 million in salary and invest in seven or eight films, but Wan Xiaohu made a move of [-] to [-] million and invested in [-] films. The gap should not be too big.

Wan Xiaohu smiled: "It doesn't mean that it needs to be completed in one year. It can be counted as the first phase. It can be completed within five years, which means twenty films a year. There are so many directing students graduating every year, and some of them change careers." As a behind-the-scenes worker of a director, it shouldn’t be difficult to pick out [-] supporters. It doesn’t matter if it can’t be done, as long as one or two directors are successful, it’s the success of Chinese-language films, isn’t it.”

"Xiaohu, you are a person who does big things. Uncle Zeng supports you. Hua Zai, I think you should stop showing your shabby plans and do it together with Xiaohu to make it bigger."

It didn't take long for the discussion to settle down.

Wan Xiaohu said: "Now I still have to make a movie, the time is relatively tight, I will inform Dandelion to do a lead job first, Hua Tsai has a lot of contacts in the entertainment industry, you have to worry more about the contact. When the lead job comes out, Let's set up a new company, no, Hua Tsai, you can just contribute your Yingyi Entertainment, share in it and run it together. I also went to the director circle and persuaded several famous directors to participate in the plan, serve as the producer, and work together to create it. "

As a Chinese-language filmmaker, everyone has the desire to revitalize Chinese-language films.

In the past, Wan Xiaohu could only live in ignorance, but now that he has the ability, why not try, Hollywood movies can invade the world, why can't Chinese movies.Even if it is difficult to invade the West because of cultural differences, or differences in ideology, at least the Asian region must be subdued.

We must know that when Hong Kong movies were at their most brilliant, Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia were basically the back garden of Hong Kong movies.Hollywood is here, and only Hong Kong films are KO'd.

The current Hong Kong movies are declining year by year. The scene of MP & GI and Shaw Brothers fighting for hegemony has disappeared. , there are not many Hong Kong films that can be sold in the competition.

Not to mention Taiwanese movies, they are already dead.The commercialization of mainland films started late, although there are the rise of the fifth and first generation directors.But there is a long distance from the international.

But this is not the root cause of the decline of Chinese-language movies. Wan Xiaohu doesn't know why it is not as good as it is every day.But he knows that as long as everyone puts their efforts together, make movies with heart, and support new directors.The rise of Chinese-language films is just around the corner.

The Chinese Rising Star Guide Program is just an attempt and a boost.

Find excellent successors for Chinese filmmakers.

The previous generation leads the way, and the next generation can surpass the past.It is unrealistic to be taller than a giant, but it is much easier to stand on the shoulders of giants.

"Drink, Xiaohu." The plan was settled, and the rest of the time was just chatting and reminiscing about the old days.

They chatted until midnight before leaving.

……

The next day, Wan Xiaohu returned to the set.

And the Chinese Rising Star Guide Program.They are also preparing intensively in private.

On May 5th, Shanda went to NASDAQ GEM for listing. During this period, China’s concept stocks encountered a cold wave, but Shanda’s rise could not be stopped. After the first round of financing was completed, Chen Tianqiao immediately began to prepare for the second financing. It has been planned to acquire ten companies in North America, Japan, South Korea and China within half a year to expand the scale.Increase investor confidence, let them obediently put money in.

Specifically how to do it.Wan Xiaohu didn't interfere, he just waited to count the money.

On May 5th, a flight flew back to Beijing from Hong Kong, and Wan Xiaohu was on board.

This time I went back to participate in the awards ceremony of the 11th Beijing College Student Film Festival.Last year's "The Wind" set off a frenzy at the box office, breaking the [-] million mark.Topped the Chinese film champion throne.This time, the college student film festival is the first award that "The Wind" ushered in.

Wan Xiaohu went more reservedly, and stepped on to the live broadcast hall of CCTV.Since the year before last, the Beijing College Student Film Festival has been arranged to broadcast live on the Central Film Channel.

"director."

"Guide Wan."

"Boss Wan."

"Tiger."

"Brother Tiger."

When we arrived at the live broadcast hall, the greetings never stopped.

Wan Xiaohu responded one by one.Then, under the guidance of the staff, they found the crew location of "The Wind". Zhou Xun, Li Bingbing, Huang Xiaoming, and Sun Honglei were all there.

"Director, you are here."

Wan Xiaohu laughed: "Li Bingbing, Zhou Xun, congratulations, you are tied for the most popular actress among college students."

"Then we also want to congratulate the director, you are the most popular director among college students." Zhou Xun said with a smile.

From this year onwards, the film festival will no longer set the most popular film among college students, but the most popular director.Given the popularity of "Sound of the Wind", it was easy to get two awards for director and actress.The other male actor was won by Chen Kun, but he was not the leading actor in "The Wind", so he won the award with "Baby in Love" directed by Chen Shaohong, which was also tied. Jiang Wen also won this award for "Heaven and Earth Heroes".

In addition to several actors, Ning Hao and Huang Bo are also sitting here. They came to the film festival to promote "Crazy Racing".

At the end of this year, there will be a lot of blockbuster movies, and it will inevitably crash. "Crazy Racing" is scheduled to be released in July during the summer vacation.

Chat and reminisce.

It can't be said that it is a reminiscence, Sun Honglei and Huang Bo both have roles in "Wanted", and they have not been separated for a long time.After a while, Chen Kun also came over to participate in the chat. As the leading actor of "Wanted", he also followed the location shooting in Hong Kong, and naturally flew over with Wan Xiaohu.

After chatting for a while, the awards ceremony began.

The first is to award the most popular actress among college students.

With applause, Zhou Xun and Li Bingbing walked up to the podium arm in arm. Li Bingbing was wearing a white long dress evening dress, and Zhou Xun was a light blue backless evening dress, showing the most beautiful side of a woman.
