0239 [Chinese New Star Guide]

I told jokes and drank beer, and soon I talked about the movie.

"Xiaohu, please help me with reference. The film market has been generally sluggish recently, and the film industry is in a downturn. Many behind-the-scenes staff have not started work. I think we can't stop making movies because of the downturn in the film industry. And now we can only survive in blockbusters. Many new directors have no chances. If they have talent, they will not have the opportunity in two or three years. They are not going to change careers." Liu Dehua said very seriously.

"Andy Lau, do you mean?" Wan Xiaohu put down his beer glass.

"I plan to build a new director support plan. I will try to take on a few movies, contribute my salary, and invest in some new directors to shoot Chinese high-definition movies. The movies are opened too much, and it will also give you some opportunities to start work and make money. But you also know that I have a bad vision and always fail to invest in movies. Xiaohu, you are a commercial director no.1, please give me some ideas."

Zeng Zhiwei also interrupted: "Yes, Xiaohu, you are an expert. Andy Lau wants to do something, so you can help him. I also want to make a fuss, but you also know that I can't save money in my pocket. One can dismantle two, so I can only shake the flag and cheer."

Wan Xiaohu blinked.

Liu Dehua’s plan should be the “Asian New Star Guide Plan” that was on the previous track.

Liu Dehua has always been interested in investing in movies. He established Tianmu Film Company in the 1990s, but he did not lose much money and later he died. In 2002, after the release of "Infernal Affairs", Liu Dehua's career reached its peak. He was busy with records and movies and made a lot of money.

Based on the skylight of that year, Yingyi Entertainment Company was founded to continue the wish of the year and invest in movies. This year, "The World Without Thieves" directed by Feng Xiaogang has invested in Yingyi Entertainment.

Subsequently, Yingyi Entertainment launched the Asian new star director program. Liu Dehua announced that his salary would increase, and then took out the salary for his three movies, totaling HK$12.5 million. As financial support, it was later added to HK$25 million, supporting seven young directors from Singapore, Malaysia and China on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the Three Places to shoot 6 Chinese-language high-definition movies.

Ning Hao's "Crazy Stone" is one of the new Asian star guide programs.

It is not only a business expansion of Yingyi Entertainment, but also a tangible support for new directors. It is a successful plan to win reputation and box office.

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

"Andy Lau, your plan is good, why don't we do 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 the books, they have to deposit it in the bank for interest, and there is no place to spend it. It is appropriate to support the new director of Chinese films."

"Xiaohu, do you want to make this plan too?"

"Yes, now I feel that Chinese movies are indeed very dangerous. The market is in a downturn. Everyone is cutting production. The mainland has cut production, and Hong Kong is also cutting production. Taiwan has almost no production. Moreover, there are only a few large productions in the mainland, and the rest are all filmed just to get some national subsidies. It is very regrettable if this continues."

In fact, without Liu Dehua's proposal, Wan Xiaohu will sooner or later become a support plan for the new director.

If you learn well, you will become an official. The Chinese concept has reached a certain level. Naturally, you will not be satisfied with just being a big director. You will either return home in glory and show off, or you will "make the world with great success" and treat yourself as a savior and benefit the people. Wan Xiaohu also wants to try the taste of becoming 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'm in the mainland, you're in Hong Kong, and you're going to win over a number of film companies and celebrity artists. We're building a big brand called the Chinese New Star Director Program, investing 350 million to support 100 Chinese high-definition movies. Whether it's mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan, or Singapore, as long as you're a Chinese new director, as long as you shoot Chinese movies that are heart-to-heart Chinese, you can apply to join the Chinese New Star Director Program, and we'll invest in him to make movies!"

"Three hundred and five hundred? One hundred? Xiaohu, you are so courageous." Liu Dehua was shocked.

His original intention was to pay more than 10 million yuan in films and invest in seven or eight movies, but Wan Xiaohu made 300 million yuan at once and invested 100 movies. The gap was not too big.

Wan Xiaohu smiled and said, "It's not that it's time to complete it in one year. It can be counted as the first episode. It can be completed within five years, and it's only twenty movies a year. Every year, there are so many students who study directors and graduate from behind the scenes who change careers and become directors. It shouldn't be difficult to pick out twenty support. It doesn't matter if it's not done. As long as one or two directors can become a success, it's all the success of Chinese films, right?"

"Xiaohu, you are a big deal. Uncle Zeng supports you, Andy Lau, I think you should not take out your shabby plan and do it with Xiaohu and make it bigger."

It took less time to discuss, and things settled.

Wan Xiaohu said: "I still have to make movies now. Time is tight. I will notify Dandelion to do a leading work first. Andy Lau, you have a wide connection in the entertainment industry, and you have to worry more about contact. When the leading work comes out, we will set up a new company. No, Andy Lau, you will contribute your Yingyi Entertainment, join the shares and operate together. I also went to the director circle to persuade several famous directors to participate in the plan, serve as the producer, and work together to build."

As a Chinese-language filmmaker, everyone has the dream of revitalizing Chinese-language films.

In the past, Wan Xiaohu could only live in a daze. Now that he has the ability, why not try it? Hollywood movies can invade the world, and why Chinese movies cannot. Even if it is a bit difficult to invade the West due to cultural differences or differences in ideas and ideas, it is at least necessary to conquer the Asian region.

You should know that when Hong Kong movies were the most glorious, South Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia was basically the back garden of Hong Kong movies. When Hollywood came, it was only the only one that was koji by Hong Kong movies.

Today's Hong Kong movies are declining year by year. The scene of Diemao and Shaw Brothers' competition has disappeared. The battle between Shaw Brothers and Jiahe has ended, and the three giants of New Art City have also disbanded early. Now, there are not many Hong Kong movies that can be won at the Academy Awards.

Not to mention Taiwanese movies, they have already died. Mainland movies started commercially late, and although the fifth and sixth generations of directors emerged, they are a long distance from the international community.

But this is not the fundamental reason for the decline of Chinese films. Wan Xiaohu doesn't know why day by day is worse than day. But he knows that as long as everyone puts their strength together, makes movies with their hearts, and supports new directors, the rise of Chinese films is just around the corner.

The Chinese New Star Guide Plan is a try and a boost.

Find an excellent successor for Chinese-speaking filmmakers.

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

"Drinking, Xiaohu." The plan was decided, and the rest of the time was to chat and reminisce.

The chat ended in the middle of the night.

...

The next day, Wan Xiaohu returned to the crew.

The Chinese-language new star guide plan is also being prepared in full swing in private.

On May 13, Shanda Network went to the Nasdaq Growth Enterprise Market to go public. During this period, Chinese concept stocks encountered a cold wave, but could not stop Shanda's rise. After Chen Tianqiao's first batch of financing was over, he immediately began to prepare for the second financing. He planned to acquire ten companies in North America, Japan, South Korea and China within half a year to expand the scale. Increase investors' confidence and let them get money obediently.

What should I do specifically? Wan Xiaohu doesn't interfere, he just waits to count the money.

On May 15, a plane flew back to Beijing in Hong Kong, and Wan Xiaohu was on the plane.

This time I went back to participate in the award ceremony of the 11th Beijing College Student Film Festival. Last year's "The Sound of the Wind" set off a box office craze, breaking the 300 million mark and winning the championship of Chinese films. This time, the College Student Film Festival is the first commendation received by "The Sound of the Wind".

Wan Xiaohu went there with a reserved attitude and walked to CCTV's live broadcast hall. Since the year before yesterday, the Beijing College Student Film Festival has been arranged to broadcast live on the CCTV Six Film Channel.

"director."

"Ten Thousand Directors."

"Boss Wan."

"Little Tiger."

"Brother Tiger."

When I arrived at the live broadcast hall, the sound of greetings never stopped.

Wan Xiaohu responded one by one. Then, under the leadership of the staff, he found the crew position of "The Sound of the Wind", including Zhou Xun, Li Bingbing, Huang Xiaoming, and Sun Honglei.

"Director, you're here."

Wan Xiaohu laughed: "Li Bingbing, Zhou Xun, congratulations to you, the most popular actresses among college students."

"Then we also want to congratulate you, director, the most popular director among college students." Zhou Xunxiao said.

Since this year's festival, the film festival no longer has the most popular films among college students, but have changed to the most popular director. With the popularity of "The Sound of the Wind", he naturally easily won the director and actress. The other male actor was Chen Kun, but he was not the starring "The Sound of the Wind", so he won the award for "The Baby in Love" directed by Chen Shaohong, and it was also tied. Jiang Wen also won the award for "Heroes of Heaven and Earth".

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

At the end of this year, blockbusters were crowded and it was a car crash. "Crazy Racing" was scheduled to be released in July of the summer.

Chat and reminisce about the past.

It's not said that it's a reminiscence. Sun Honglei and Huang Bo both had roles in "The Wanted Order", and they didn't last long. After a while, Chen Kun also came over and participated in the chat. As the male protagonist of "The Wanted Order", he also filmed outdoor scenes in Hong Kong, so he naturally flew over with Wan Xiaohu.

After chatting for a while, the award ceremony began.

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

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

"Sister Yu."

"Xiao Meng."

When they arrived at the podium, the two women began to sing and make fun of each other.

Although it was not very successful, there was still a lot of laughter from below. Wan Xiaohu also laughed. Seeing the glamorous side of the second girl, thinking of the very smooth side of the second girl, it felt so elated.

"This time I am very grateful to the college students for awarding this award to Sister Yu and me. "The Sound of the Wind" is a very excellent patriotic education film. It can play the role of a revolutionary martyr and is recognized by everyone. This makes me very excited. I want to thank many people for their help along the way... Thank you Director Wan Xiaohu, you are the best director I have ever met, thank you!"

Zhou Xun finished speaking vigorously, then waved the trophy in his hand and retreated with a smile.

Li Bingbing continued: "Xiao Meng finished what I want to say. As a newcomer, she was able to perform the role of Li Ningyu in "The Sound of the Wind", and she was filled with mixed feelings... Thank you Director Wan Xiaohu, I think you are not only the best, but also the most handsome director."

The camera turned to Wan Xiaohu in the audience.

His mouth was smirking.
