"oops!"
In the small auditorium of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office, Li Lianlian was fighting with a British guy with chest hair on the big screen.
The foreigner was tall and strong, and Li Lianjie was short and lean. The contrast was sharp. Seeing the foreigner grabbing him, he lifted him up and smashed him to the ground. Hundreds of employees exclaimed in unison, seeing him use a beautiful move. Resolved, there was another chorus of shouts... In the end, Yang Yuqian, played by him, defeated all the invincible opponents in the world and won the "Twelve Nations Indiscriminate Comprehensive Martial Arts Arena Competition".
The twelve countries refer to China and the eleven countries. They are the parties that signed the "Xin Chou Treaty".
?????
A big flag "Invincible" flutters in the wind. This is the reward for the champion of the competition. It can be placed at the door of his own martial arts gym, and he is given a memorial arch. Civil servants dismount their sedan chairs and military attachés dismount their horses. What a grace from Lafayette! Yang Yuqian won "Yang Invincible". title, and at the same time, his spiritual realm has also been sublimated.
He held a gold medal, followed by Chen Shaomei played by Gong Xue and Chen Shaojie played by Wang Qun, as well as Yu Hai, Liu Tao, Yu Chenghui, Ji Chunhua and others.
"In the opinion of ordinary people, we not only need to practice martial arts to strengthen our body to fight against foreign enemies, but the most important thing is to broaden the people's wisdom and integrate wisdom and martial arts. That is the way to make the country rich and strong. Can a mere reputation of being invincible in the world change the destiny of the country? Sir, please think twice. I’d rather leave this gold medal to you as a souvenir. I’ll take my leave!” “Okay!”
"Well said!"
The movie ended here. Mr. Liao suddenly cheered and took the lead in applauding, and then the whole audience burst into applause.
This was the internal screening of "Tai Chi 3", specially for the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office. Chen Qi did not break his promise and sent the film over as soon as it was finished, fulfilling Mr. Liao's wish.
He really enjoyed watching it, and even talked about it enthusiastically when he returned to the office, saying: "I saw that the director wrote Tsui Hark's name. He is no longer Li Wenhua, but the screenwriter is still Xiao Chen. The core of the idea is the same, but the shooting techniques have improved. "Hong Kong directors are still capable." "You are capable but you haven't won the Golden Bear yet?" the secretary joked.
"Hi!"
Mr. Liao also laughed and said: "What an honor this Li Wenhua has received. Of course he has also paid a lot. We need to evaluate it objectively... Oh, what a good movie, what a good movie. I can sleep well today." "Xiao Chen gave away several movies at once, including "The Love Between Ghosts" and so on."
"Is it the one where a man and a ghost fall in love?" "Yes!"
"Watch it if you don't want to. If you want to watch it, you can let it go. I'm too old to see each other. I heard that there is a passionate scene in it. Hey... Mr. Liao is in a very good mood. He grins like a rich old uncle. Suddenly I remembered something and asked, "Has Xiao Chen's marriage been decided?"
"You should be able to do this before going to the United States!"
"Oh, help me choose a gift when the time comes, and I'll write a congratulatory message for you to take with you." "Okay!"
The secretary went out, and Mr. Liao was working in the room by himself. From time to time he would stop and make gestures with his hands, make Tai Chi poses, laugh a few times, and then continue to bury his head.
He had already undergone two heart surgeries and was always in a state of bursting out. He died of a heart attack two months later. A few days before his death, he had just participated in the nomination meeting of the Sixth National People's Congress. He is the vice chairman
It was said that it was a nomination, but it had already been decided, but he passed away suddenly. If Mr. Liao had not passed away, it would be different.
"Life is Beautiful" and "Tai Chi 3" were screened in the museum, and then sent to literary and art institutions and universities in major cities for screening. Although many people did not like it, there were also many people who loved "Life is Beautiful". This number is beyond the It was beyond Chen Qi’s expectation.
Most of them are cultural figures, scholars, artists, and quite a few college students. What do these people do? Immigrants in the 1980s and 1990s, the main force studying abroad. They love "Life is Beautiful" to death!
They didn't care that Chen Qi made this film to earn foreign exchange and open up international exchanges. They only saw the things they were arrogant about in it.
In the comment of a cultural person, this is called "an outstanding anti-war film, a kind of advanced peace thinking, calm and profound, absorbing Western progressive ideas. At the end, the American couple holds their children and looks at the plane in the sky, which is very touching." No aftertaste... They feel that they are on the same page as Chen Qi. If the media were developed at this time, they would be able to praise Chen Qi as an opinion leader. Good guy, let's change it to the number one public knowledge!
As a result, there was a very strange public response to "Life Is Beautiful". The common people did not know what this film was about, but newspapers and magazines were making all kinds of wild claims, or supporters and opponents were arguing fiercely... China Film He became increasingly anxious, waiting for Chen Qi's reply.
In mid-April, a letter finally came from Hong Kong. Sun Jianmin couldn't wait to open it. There was no politeness in it. It contained a few dry paragraphs, which were the issuance opinions proposed by Dongchang. Sun Jianmin read it. His expression changed first, and then he looked back. , silently.
"What's written?" "See for yourself!"
Tong Gang took it over, glanced at it, and said: "This asking price is too harsh, we are already losing money!" "Look at the back!" Sun Jianmin reminded.
Um?
Tong Gang looked back and said nothing. Chen Qi gave two distribution methods:
The first is a buyout. For example, if "Tai Chi 3" sells 400 copies and each copy costs 10,000 yuan, China Film will pay Dongchang a buyout fee of 4 million.
The second is agency distribution. China Film will negotiate with provincial film companies. No matter what method is used, the agency fee of 10%-15% will be paid to China Film based on the negotiated price. It is very, very simple and does not involve any complicated calculation methods and Account sharing
Let’s talk about China Film’s sources of income.
Nowadays, movies are divided into distribution revenue and screening revenue. Screening is the box office. What is the distribution revenue in the box office?
For example, if China Film buys a film from a studio, it must sell it to various provincial companies. This is not sold by copy, but rented, which is called film rental.
Cinemas across the country, including clubs within units, only need to use China Film's copies. The 35mm copy will be shown for one show, and the number of films will be rented to China Film for one show: the 16mm copy will be shown for one show, and the number of films will be rented; and the 8mm copy will be shown for one show, and the number of films will be rented. .This is called distribution income.
But China Film Group does not take it itself, but gives 70% or 30% to local companies.
As for the real box office, China Film Group does not get a penny. The local companies keep 80% and 20% to the local cultural bureau. So the local companies are the ones who make a lot of money. The money earned by China Film Group must be turned over to the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Culture. Use this money as an annual allocation to the studio, and so on.
Sun Jianmin and Tong Gang both disagreed, but Chen Qi wrote later:
"The film industry needs to deepen reform, and the leaders are very determined to break the "big pot rice" tradition. The studios have always wanted freedom of operation, and I also agree with allowing them to operate freely, develop in the direction of enterprises, be responsible for their own profits and losses, and break the "big pot rice rice" tradition... The implication is : If the studio becomes a corporate enterprise, the Ministry of Culture will no longer have to allocate large sums of money every year, and China Film's handover task will be easier.
"I thought he was from the studio!" Tong Gang couldn't hold it in for a long time before he finally said it.
"I also thought he was from over there, at least he had to face the Beijing Film Studio, right? Look at this, he is eager to cook the oil in the fire and everyone will die together!"
Sun Jianmin thought about it seriously and said, "Write him again and say that when the symposium is held, China Film will fully support the studio's reform. I hope he will do what he says. "What about distribution? Do we agree?" Tong Gang asked.
"Let's wait and see the results of the Golden Rooster Awards."
"We are under pressure, and local companies are under even more pressure. If you can make them bleed, let them bleed."
