After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 352: Feng Kuazi bows his head and drinks to settle the grudge

"Movies are the foundation of our livelihood. Have you forgotten how Huayi was hammered?" Li Mingyang said.

"The cultural and tourism department is very concerned about the film and television city plan and will hold a meeting soon," said Wang Changtian.

"You two are setting a trap for me together!" Li Mingyang took a bite of sea cucumber and shook his head, "Why are there sea cucumbers in meetings recently? After we eat them, the gifts are also sea cucumbers. Did they dig out the sea cucumber nest?"

"Sponsored, it tastes okay." Yu Dong glanced at Wang Changtian, who showed no intention of continuing to speak.

Damn it, you were the one who first proposed the plan, why do you want me to take the lead when the time comes?
"There is a piece of land in Yanbei, close to the Great Wall, which is very suitable for building a resort," said Yu Dong.

"Harbin is also fine. Hillside villas are popular now... No, hillside resorts. We have many mountains there," said Zhao Dashan.

"There are actually a lot of lands in Shanghai. Shanghai Film Group provides the money and manpower, so we don't need to pay out any money." After Wang Changtian and the others finished speaking, the last one spoke.

"Just do it yourself, why are you telling me?" Li Mingyang said curiously.

The three of them laughed at the same time and explained the reason.

The film and television city needs IP and a gimmick.

The three companies want to use the One Punch Man IP to build a theme park, and then use Running Man to promote it.

Before looking for Li Mingyang, Yu Dong and Wang Changtian did some research and found that One Punch Man has a huge influence in the domestic two-dimensional world.

There are many heroes and their characters are interesting and novel. We can completely learn from Marvel and create a One Punch Man universe.

The development of IP is extremely dependent on the art of storytelling, and storytelling requires a lot of imagination, often creating a new world, establishing new rules, and establishing a new worldview.

The most imaginative film director in the country is Li Mingyang, and the three want Li Mingyang to make a series of heroic films.

Use the hero series of movies to drive the development of real-life entertainment and derivative products.

Forming a triangular cycle.

If it was just Yu Dong and Wang Changtian who asked him to make a heroic series of movies and develop IP, Li Mingyang would not refuse.

But the two lacked confidence, so they brought in Zhao Dashan.

But that's too painful.

Zhao Dashan is indeed a powerful figure with great influence, but his calamity is coming! This project will definitely fail!
But it doesn't seem to be a big problem...

Yu Dong and Wang Changtian are taking the blame in the front.

I'm a movie director, it's none of my business.

"IP development has always been what I've been pursuing. Why didn't you tell me about this good thing earlier? Come on, cheers, I wish us success." Li Mingyang raised his glass and said.

Yu Dong was stunned, feeling that the matter was going too smoothly, so smoothly that he was caught off guard.

Wang Changtian was also confused. Based on his understanding of Li Mingyang, Yu Dong and Zhao Dashan were obviously fat sheep. If he dragged out the negotiation, he could make more of them!

Zhao Dashan reacted very quickly and praised Li Mingyang for his decisiveness and said he was capable of doing great things.

The four of them were having a pleasant conversation.

Wang Dajun and Boss Yang brought Feng Kuazi, Jiang Wen, and other people from the Beijing circle to Li Mingyang's table.

After everyone exchanged greetings for a while, Zhang Weiping and Zhang Yimou also came to join in the fun.

Not wanting to be left behind, Chen Kaizi and his wife also came.

The four major domestic film giants gathered together, and the five major domestic directors were all present. This grand occasion is rare.

Suddenly, flash lights flashed wildly in the banquet hall, which meant that interviews were not allowed, otherwise the media reporters would have swarmed in.

"Director Li, I'll toast you." Feng Kuazi raised his glass with a smile and toasted Li Mingyang.

The arrogant Feng Pants lowered his head.

There is no need...

They are both billion-dollar directors, but Feng Kuzi is the top-ranked director in terms of total box office of Chinese-language films!
That's bowing your head.

Everyone present, including Li Mingyang, was shocked.

Under the gaze of everyone.

Li Mingyang raised his glass and toasted with Feng Kuazi.

"All the grudges are gone in the wine, all settled once and for all!" Wang Dajun applauded at the right time.

"Grudges? What grudges do they come from? Haha, we are all working hard for domestic films." Li Mingyang replied directly, indicating that he had let go of the grudges.

At this time, everyone applauded, and the leader of the General Administration came over and made some speeches.

To sum up, we should put aside personal grudges, actively promote the integration of domestic films with international standards, and embark on the path of industrialization.

A glass of wine to settle the grudge?
Anyone who takes this seriously is stupid.

Just maintain a friendly attitude on the surface in front of the media and leaders.

But Feng Kuazi took the initiative to lower his head...

This made Li Mingyang feel a little uneasy.

I always feel that...Huayi is going to do something big.

1942, Painted Skin 2, Detective Dee: The Prequel, and Chinese Zodiac are all movies coming out next year.

Huayi doesn't have any movies released this year?

Feng Pants has to bow his head and wait until next year!
I can't hit you again this year.

……

It's about nine o'clock in the evening.

Special care ward of Yanbei University First Hospital.

Zuoshandiao was wearing a hospital gown, smoking a cigarette, and listening to Wang Changtian's report on the General Administration's symposium.

Zuoshandiao did not attend the symposium held by the General Administration. He was admitted to the special care ward the day before yesterday.

Of course the illness is fake.

Zuoshan Diao had a rosy complexion and smoked one cigarette after another. He didn't look sick at all.

But you have to pretend to be sick!
The General Administration asked him to give his opinion, but too much talk would lead to mistakes. Zuoshandiao had to look at the situation and then recover.

"There is a limit to the ticket subsidy. How much do you think is appropriate?" Zuoshandiao suddenly said after listening to Wang Changtian's report.

Ticket subsidies have a huge impact on movie box office, but they are not friendly to profits.

Your Name, Let the Bullets Fly, and If You Are the One 2 are three movies that have grossed over billion yuan, but Huayi, Yinghuang, and Guangguang have not announced their profit figures.

Excluding the costs of production, publicity, and ticket subsidies, on paper, only Let the Bullets Fly had a net profit of over 80 million.

If You Are the One 2 lost more than million.

Your Name had the highest box office, but the net profit was only over 60 million.

The ticket subsidy limit is a trade-off between box office and profit. After all, only when the film really makes money can it attract more investment.

"About 30 million." Wang Changtian gave a limit.

This limit is not just a casual statement, but is targeted at the billion-yuan box office line.

Zuoshandiao hesitated for a while and said, "Let's stick with this price for now."

After Zuo Shandiao and Wang Changtian finished talking about the ticket subsidy, Li Mingyang smiled and said, "Boss Han, my award."

"We have registered everything you need to. As for whether you can be shortlisted or win the award, it depends on the judges. You should prepare well for the 5th Asian Film Awards next month. You should be able to win an award," said Zuoshandiao.

Li Mingyang nodded and smiled, but rolled his eyes in his heart.

For the high-end water-holding award, those who don’t have any awards can brag about it, but it’s also nice to have one more for those who have awards.

Nickname: Asia's most hopeless general.

Li Mingyang estimated that he could only win the highest box office award.

This is also one of the few films in Asia that only focuses on box office.

The value...it's the same whether you have the award or not, it's really dispensable.

What Li Mingyang wants is the Golden Horse, Golden Statue and Golden Rooster.

Judging from the value and credibility of the Golden Horse Awards, which did not cause any trouble, is now number one in the country.

The second is the Hong Kong circle’s big carnival Golden Statue.

Finally, there is the Golden Rooster.

The Golden Rooster Awards have always been a lofty institution.

The winning films have either not been released nationwide yet or not many people have watched them after their release. The fact that the films are too high-brow to be accepted by the public fully demonstrates the "professionalism" of the Golden Rooster Award.
It draws a clear line between the tastes of ordinary audiences and even goes against them.

The Hundred Flowers Awards, the Golden Rooster Awards for Chinese Films, and the Huabiao Awards for Chinese Films are collectively known as the three major awards for domestic films.

The Hundred Flowers Award is an audience award, the Golden Rooster Award is an expert award, and the Huabiao Award is a government award.

This expert award is co-sponsored by the Film Association and the Federation of Literary and Art Circles.

In fact, the members of these two associations are mainly from the three circles of Beijing Film Academy, Central Academy of Drama and Shanghai Theatre Academy.

If you want to win the Golden Rooster, you have to follow the academy’s path.

Whether you can get it depends mainly on the attitude of the college.

The college cannot guarantee that you will win a prize, but if it doesn’t allow you to win, then it would be really easy.

The old hipster's knife is only used to kill his own people.

……

Early the next morning, Li Mingyang came to Guangguang Media.

Meeting...

The morning meeting was about Light Media’s revenue last year, as well as its film and animation blueprints.

Wang Changtian has already started planning the animation.

The reason why Guangguang can become the new king of domestic entertainment is not because of live-action commercial movies or main themes, but... animated movies!
The establishment of Color Sky and the success of "Fengshen Universe" have enabled Light Media to firmly establish itself as the industry leader in animation films.

Light's layout and strength for animated films are the best in the industry.

It can be said that it was the efforts of Light Media alone that brought the domestic animated film industry to an epic level with Ne Zha: The Devil Child Comes into the World, which attracted countless capitals to rush into the animated film industry.

Accelerate the rise of animated films and improve the production iterations of animated films!
And these technologies have indirectly or directly affected the entire Chinese animation industry!

Whether in the past life or in this life.

Wang Changtian always says that movies don’t make money, movies are risky, and movies are too difficult…

However, he pioneered many new ways of playing in the film industry...

Huayi has made great strides in artist management and has become a leader in the film industry.

Wanda relies on its unique cinema chain and real estate to rush all the way from the downstream, through the upper, middle and lower reaches, unify the industry and dominate the film circle.

Guangxian, on the other hand, took a different approach and created many new genres of domestic films. Lost in Thailand ushered in the comedy era, So Young created the youth film front, and then turned to animated films, creating the golden age of Chinese comics.

He pioneered the transformation of actors into directors, and completely changed the landscape of domestic film directors with new films, new methods and new publicity and promotion.

Wang Changtian... is quite capable, but his playing style is a bit ruthless and he has been warned many times by his superiors.

If it weren’t for his great contribution to Chinese animation.

The matter of Banhelu is not so easy to resolve...

Afternoon meeting.

It is a directors exchange meeting.

Gordon Chan, Yan Zi, Deng Chao, and Xu Zheng were all here, in addition to some less familiar directors.

Plus Li Mingyang himself.

This lineup will be the main force of directors that Guangxian will develop in the next few years.

After the meeting, everyone had a meal at a nearby restaurant.

This was the first time Li Mingyang had contact with Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng, who was directing for the first time, was very reserved, spoke very humbly, and seemed to lack confidence.

It feels like he just entered the industry, but in fact he is a first-line actor.

He is a comedy actor with a very high national popularity and is extremely rare in the circle.

In the comedy field, there are few people in the circle who can compete with him.

After Lost in Thailand, they established themselves as the three giants of comedy.

Xu Zheng and Huang Bo are from the same circle, but as for Baoqiang... it's hard to comment.

Baoqiang is not a bad person and he really cares about brotherhood.

But he is too shrewd.

He actually has a good relationship with Xu Zheng and Huang Bo.

After Lost in Thailand became a huge success, Xu Zheng and Huang Bo each earned nearly 50 million.

This 50 million is after-tax income!
He received a salary of two million and still had to pay 45% in taxes.

This completely broke down the calculating Baoqiang.

At the beginning, Xu Zheng and Huang Bo suggested that he use his film salary to invest, but he did not agree...
