While Leader Xu was studying capitalist etiquette in Hong Kong, the visiting delegation had returned to the capital. More than 20 people came back one by one. The leaders were very pleased. Chen Qi met with Ding Qiao alone and reported on "Interstellar Dinosaurs".
"Can they really give more than 300,000 US dollars?"
"Other people's animators earn 2,000 US dollars a month, and our animators earn 60 yuan a month. They are eager to find us. That's it, they will make money in the end." "Americans are really rich!"
Ding Qiao couldn't help sighing, and Chen Qi said: "As long as you wave your hand and download the red-headed documents, you will get more than 300,000 US dollars." "How can it be so easy to get red-headed documents? We have to have a meeting to study it."
"You can arrange it. There's no rush anyway. It will take half a year for the Americans to write the script."
Chen Qi paused and said: "I will be in Hong Kong for the second half of the year and I will not be able to participate in the reform talks. I simply want to share my formal opinions with you.
First, I support the studio's corporate reform, be responsible for its own profits and losses, pay taxes in accordance with the law, and raise funds to make films by itself. The state will no longer allocate funds and only provide certain subsidies. Second, I suggest reducing the quota for animated films to 200 minutes, and using the surplus of American Film.
All personnel are devoted to the work of earning foreign exchange.
Third, if Article 1 is implemented, I hope that the leaders will approve that Dongfang Company’s overseas business will remain unchanged, and its business in the mainland will comply with the new reform policies, pay taxes to the country, and can raise funds on its own.”
".."
Ding Qiao didn't say anything after listening, just nodded, and suddenly mentioned another thing: "The leaders of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office and the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office have changed. They should talk to you, so be mentally prepared." "I know it's the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office.
Mr. Liao, who is the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office?"
Ding Qiao spit out a name. Oh!
Chen Qi also nodded. He is another unspeakable boss and knows how to 404.
In the past, there was no Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office, only the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office. In 1978, the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office was split from the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office and unified under the leadership of Mr. Liao. With Mr. Liao gone, two positions were vacant. This is the importance of historical figures.
The director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office has always been a high-ranking official. The unit is at the ministerial level, but the director is the deputy state minister. As for the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office and the Xinhua Branch, the former has a higher status.
Chen Qi had a good relationship with the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office and the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office, but now that new officials have been appointed, he also has a headache. He has realized what it means to be a tiny dust in history that turns into a huge mountain...
As expected by Ding Qiao, Chen Qi went to the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office within two days after everyone knew that the visiting delegation had returned.
The compound is still so familiar, but Mr. Liao is no longer there, replaced by Mr. Liao. He is in his early 40s, studied missile engineering in Harbin, and has always been a technician in the army. He was also very stressed out when he was placed in this position.
This kind of united front work, to put it bluntly, is communication between people. Overseas people can recognize the Liao family, but others cannot - at least at this stage. "Comrade Chen Qi, please sit down, please sit down!"
When he took office, he probably just had some free time and said with a smile: "I heard that your visiting delegation returned from the United States, so I asked you to come over. Don't mind. My father values ​​you very much and says that you have flexible thinking and strong innovation ability. Personally, I
Well, I’ve also seen your movie, it’s really good.”
"Don't take it seriously. Mr. Liao has been kind to me. If you have any orders, just tell me." "We won't be so serious, just have a chat."
Mr. Liao is a man of science and engineering. He is more pragmatic and did not go around and around. He said directly: "You are from the Ministry of Culture, but you are quite famous in our United Front System. Although the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office and the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office are separate, many things are interrelated.
As one, you have been in Hong Kong for a long time, what do you think of the united front work there?"
"Your question is too big and I dare not answer it."
Chen Qi thought for a while and said: "The united front I understand is to allow compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and overseas Chinese to return to the motherland. If people don't return, their hearts will return, and if their hearts don't return, their money will also return."
Mr. Liao was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "They say you have wild ideas and courage. You really dare to say it, but that's it. The country hopes that they will return, and it is best to invest in construction."
"Then I don't have any special ideas. I just want to set aside a piece of land to plan various supporting facilities for housing, factories, medical education, leisure and tourism. The state will provide policies and let them invest funds, technology, and talents. This is convenient.
, and it can also serve as a demonstration.”
"No more?"
"I'm a layman. I really don't understand. I can still talk about movies. I'm currently running a business in Hong Kong, and I want to develop in the United States in the future. Maybe I can connect with your job."
"Oh, speaking of which, how is your "Life is Beautiful" in the United States?"
"We played one show and the response was great. We will apply for next year's Oscars. Before we came back, the box office of "Orphan" had already reached 20 million." "That's very good. You will definitely achieve better results!"
Mr. Yan followed Chen Qi's words and started talking about movies, without asking the previous question.
After chatting for a while, Chen Qi left.
He was in the office, looking around, and suddenly pulled out a document, which was archived internal information. When he took over this position, he spent a lot of time just sorting out the various tasks.
The document states: As early as 1979, Mr. Liao proposed to establish an economic development zone in a place called Shahe Farm in Shenzhen to introduce overseas Chinese capital, technology and talents and carry out overseas Chinese affairs.
When Mr. Liao took over, he really wanted to implement this project, and it finally came true. This place became the famous "Shenzhen Overseas Chinese Town". If you don't know what OCT is, then you have heard of "Window of the World", right?
The Window to the World is in OCT.
Although Chen Qi said very little just now, every sentence was on the point: it is best to enclose the land and concentrate on it!
"There are indeed two moments!"
Mr. Liao had a good impression when he came into contact with him for the first time. His father valued Xiao Chen, and he didn't mind forming a good relationship, not to mention he was a capable man.
After Chen Qi met Mr. Liao, he was called by the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office to meet with the new leader.
It’s also about chatting and encouraging.
Um.
In terms of industry, economy, and culture from mainland China in Hong Kong, the big bosses all know that silver is nothing, and Chen Qi is the standard bearer, so they naturally want to meet him.
Rested in Beijing for a few days.
Tong Gang from China Film Group also came to look for him. While he was in the United States, China Film Group held a third-quarter movie viewing party. Although "Tai Chi 3" was a routine and had the foundation of the previous two films, the provincial film companies were very confident and ordered 408 units.
copy.
Although "Life is Beautiful" won the Golden Bear and the audience was looking forward to it, all parties felt that it was too artistic, so they ordered 156 copies after careful consideration.
"The Orphan" had too many cuts and was mediocre, so only 70 copies were ordered.
For three films plus one, China Film will pay Dongchang 6.34 million!
In fact, it is not much, but it is the first time that a production unit has taken money from China Film. The agreement between the two parties is confidential and cannot be made public at this stage, otherwise the studio will rebel.
Chen Qi is flourishing inside and outside the wall, and he is making money.
When Dongfang Company was established, there were no regulations on mainland revenue, but he exported to domestic sales and returned to the mainland to make money, so he took the initiative to include the mainland business in the reform plan and pay taxes in accordance with the law.
Chapter completed!
