On May 20, 2000, Beijing Airport.

Wan Xiaohu and Li Xia picked up the plane together. Today is the day when Su Ya and Zhao Ye return from South Korea.

As soon as time came, two beautiful girls came out of the airport hall, one of whom was about 1.7 meters tall and the other one was about 1.6 meters tall. Although they were of different heights, they were all attractive. Even when they looked around, they saw two lazy people standing against the glass window, chatting happily.

One of them was 37 years old, casual pants and white shirt, and the sleeves were rolled up, looking a little rustic. The other one was half-headed, holding a sign in his hand with a slid pull that said "Su Ya, Zhao Ye", which was Wan Xiaohu and Li Xia.

"Hey, hey, you two are too irresponsible. Let you pick you up, you hide here and chat, your attitude is not at all right!" Needless to say, the tall beauty is Su Ya, the boss of Dandelion Film Company.

The shorter beauty is Su Ya's roommate Zhao Ye, smiling slightly.

Wan Xiaohu and Li Xia quickly pretended to be nervous, each one, and took the salutes of the two beauties.

"Then what, the plane arrived at the station in advance? Didn't you say that it would be an hour later?" Wan Xiaohu spoke lies with his eyes open, trying to cover up the perfunctory attitude of the two when they picked up the plane.

Su Ya slapped Wan Xiaohu in contempt: "Can you say it more false?"

"Su Meimei's eyes are as sharp as a raging person. She can see my true face at once. I admire her." Wan Xiaohu is getting younger and younger now. Not only is her body young, but her heart is also getting younger and younger. "Oh by the way, are you having fun in Korea?"

Zhao Ye's expression frowned and said, "Oh, I'm not happy at all. Su Ya is completely unconsider of her feelings when she went abroad for the first time. As soon as she arrived in Seoul, South Korea, she hurriedly contacted Kim Ho-sik to discuss the film adaptation rights of the novel and the copyright of the mainland. After the business was discussed, she had already boarded a plane back to China. I'm sorry that I stayed in South Korea for two days and I actually spent all of them in a hotel!"

Su Ya hummed: "Little Coconut, don't slander me. Didn't you take you to the night market for a walk last night?"

"But we just went for a meal, and we didn't even get the big shop next door."

"Okay, OK, I'll compensate you next time."

After getting in the car, Zhao Ye still shouted angrily, saying that this was a tragic trip to South Korea.

However, no one paid attention to her anymore. Su Ya began to talk to Wan Xiaohu about the gains of going to Korea this time: "I met Jin Haozhi. I was very lucky. The novel has just been published and no one has bought the copyright of the movie with him. Moreover, he is just a college student who has just left the society. The novel is just a bit famous on the Internet. The copyright is easy to buy, with 35 million won, and even the copyright in the mainland."

"35 million won? How much is the RMB?" Li Xia turned his head and asked.

“No less than 200,000.”

"It's so cheap." Wan Xiaohu exclaimed, but it's normal to think about it. After all, this book "My Savage Girlfriend" is just a funny novel on the Internet. I'm afraid Kim Ho-sik didn't know it before, and it could be adapted into a movie.

Su Ya smiled: "However, Jin Haozhi has a request."

“What are the requirements?”

"He really likes a new Korean female star named Jun Ji-hyun, who is the one who shoots Jin-dance advertisements for Samsung. You should have seen this advertisement. He hopes that if we shoot a movie, Jun Ji-hyun can be the heroine."

"Did you agree?"

"Agree." Su Ya blinked her eyes and said with a sly smile, "But it was not written into the terms of the contract. If you don't want to, he can't do anything, haha."

Wan Xiaohu raised his thumbs up: "Gaoming. But, I have some impression of this Jeon Ji-hyun. It's a very good actress. If it can be done, it's good to let her act. I originally planned to find one or two Korean actors to make it easier for me to sell the movie to South Korea."

"You are the director, please do whatever you want."

When he arrived at the Peking University dormitory, he sent Zhao Ye back, and Su Ya and Wan Xiaohu continued to open the company. Without Zhao Ye, Wan Xiaohu told the contract of cooperation between "Butterfly Effect" and Huayi Brothers. Although he created this script and invested it, he could make the decision in full, after all, everyone is a partner, and it is necessary to jointly discuss it.

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Ya frowned: "Tiger, why is the domestic profit so low?"

"I knew you wanted to ask this, but in fact, I didn't like the little profits in the mainland from the beginning. "Butterfly Effect" focuses on overseas markets, and overseas profits are the key."

"You want to learn from Gu Changwei and Wang Xiaoshuai will take the winning route?" Li Xia was puzzled.

Domestic movies can usually be taken in two ways: selling box office in China and winning awards abroad. Selling box office in China is simply too difficult for many directors. China produces one or two hundred movies every year, and it is estimated that less than ten movies can make money. Especially the sixth-generation director who has just emerged in China has never made a movie that makes box office.

In the current domestic film environment, the fourth generation of directors have gradually begun to retire and take over the film industry. The transfer of the film industry to the hands of the prosperous fifth generation directors is equivalent to handing over the task of developing commercial films to the fifth generation directors. So the fifth generation of directors have begun to search on the business path. Feng Xiaogang is the best commercial director at present, and Zhang Yimou has not yet started.

At the same time, the sixth-generation director who was born in the 1960s and 1970s and entered Nortel Film in the mid-to-late 1980s and gradually began to pick up director microphones in the 1990s, and also began to run on the road of Chinese films. However, unlike the fifth-generation director who carried the business development task, the sixth-generation director was trapped in a quirk.

Most of their generation have not experienced the changes of that great era, and even if they have a vague impression of childhood. However, the stage of their growth was the period of China's reform and opening up. The old system and concepts collapsed, and the establishment of new trendy ideas and concepts left a deep mark on their growth.

Especially the pains that the economic transition brought to society in the 1980s and 1990s, such as laid off, unemployed, smashing iron rice bowls and selling gold nests, which made them look at society more critically. They either pursue the image essence extremely, or are paranoid about realistic forms and pay attention to grassroots people. The films they made were full of "rebellion and reflection".

This kind of thinking is destined to be unable to reunite with business, and there will be no investment in the next movie without business. Therefore, many sixth-generation directors, such as Jia Zhangke, Gu Changwei, and Wang Xiaoshuai, have focused on international awards. If they win this award, they can basically be released in areas such as France and Germany that like art films, making some money for the shooting of the next movie.

However, the current situation is that these six generations of directors do not have a domestic audience base and are not famous at all. If you say anything, the audience will not be named. They belong to "underground directors".

It was not until the emergence of the "post-six generation directors" Zhang Yang, Wu Shixian, Liu Hao, and directors such as Lu Chuan and Ning Hao, which injected commercial cells into the sixth generation directors that this director group gradually surfaced. The audience also gave them a new title of "new generation directors".

Wan Xiaohu smiled and shook his head: "Do you think I look like a literary director? I want to take a different directorial path. My goal is to make money all over the world! Haha!"
