Chapter 426
"All are here? Just sit there, sorry to wait a moment!"
Secretary Zhou covered the phone and said, and walked to the balcony, and could vaguely hear the sound of talking.
Boss Ma was walking around the room, looking at where to see. Perhaps others might not have enough confidence in facing Secretary Zhou, but he would not. The supreme leader had seen him, and a secretary-general could not scare him.
The room is a very ordinary room. It can be seen that Secretary Zhou is in a hurry and has almost never used anything in the room.
"Mr. Ma, I'm lucky to know. I'm busy with work, so I don't have to be polite. I'll tell you a long story!"
Secretary Zhou finished calling and came out, with no joy on his face. He invited everyone to sit down and get straight to the point! He took out a few documents from his briefcase and handed them to everyone.
"Sorry, everyone will pass it on to each other. After reading it, I will talk about your thoughts. It should be noted that this is an unofficial informal conversation. I will not admit that there has been this conversation."
This is crucial. The official has this policy. However, it is impossible for everyone to talk about many directors and actors across the country. Then the leader doesn't have to do anything. As for Ye Mingxuan, it can only be said that this young man is too lucky. He has seen the sample of the Fire Hero, which is not bad. Maybe it is because he has never been a firefighter and the resonance is not particularly strong. It just so happened that the leader was a firefighter and fell in love with this film at first sight. In terms of qualifications, Ye Mingxuan didn't even have the qualification to listen.
"You see first, Mr. Ma, come out with me!"
"Is there anything else about me?"
Boss Ma put down the documents and followed Secretary Zhou to another house.
"Mr. Ma!"
"Xiao Zhou, is there something wrong?"
"Mr. Ma, the Propaganda Department intends to form a comprehensive company to deal with the impact of Hollywood culture. The above meaning is that you and Penguin will take the lead, and the radio, television and television companies will jointly hold shares, integrate resources to develop overseas issuance matters!"
Secretary Zhou personally made a cup of tea for Boss Ma. As a national think tank and an expert in economic understanding, Secretary Zhou did not dare to show off in front of him.
"The state takes the lead? Who is the management right?"
Boss Ma is the key point. Once a company intervenes, it will have many inconveniences and constraints, and it will often be bloated and slow in response, thus missing out on opportunities.
"This... Mr. Ma..."
"Xiao Zhou, I'll discuss this matter when I go back and discuss it. Let me tell you this. You can supervise, but you can't interfere in management. This is the bottom line. Once something is mixed in, the so-called high-quality resources will become a tool for some people."
Mr. Ma waved his hand and didn't want to put himself in. It was completely necessary. If you want to drive the industry with culture, you don't have to do this. It's just that movies are relatively effective. Even if you form a company, it is very likely that major film and television companies will take the opportunity to launch their own newcomers and continue to divide the domestic market. It is not helpful in overseas markets. They are all businessmen, so who doesn't know who?
"By the way, how long does it take to approve an overseas issuance qualification now?"
"This... Although the domestic market is liberalized, the management of import and export films is still very strict. Huayi acquired Xi'an Film Studio because of overseas distribution channels. The largest amount is China Film Studio. This area is highly demanding than private enterprises. Most of the domestic market are agents for distribution or directly selling copyrights. Mr. Ma, are you going to enter the film and television industry?"
Secretary Zhou was in a dilemma. Mr. Ma’s core idea was actually what he proposed before. The difficulty of overseas distribution is not the qualifications, but the theater chain. The distribution is simple and without the support of theater chains, where will it be released?
"I understand, consider it!"
When the two returned to the room, the few people who had read the documents were not good, the requirements were too high, and many terms were unacceptable. Among them, all the films and TV series were distributed by China Film Studio, which made Ye Mingxuan as disgusting as eating a flies. Is China Film Studio bad? Just the contrary. China Film Studio's strength is the best among domestic film companies, but this tough attitude is unacceptable.
"You guys talk, I'll go out for a walk!"
Mr. Ma said a word and went out directly. Good cultural support became like this. Mr. Ma was extremely disappointed and lies were repeated. It was indeed difficult to publish overseas, but what did it have to do with Xiying China Film Studio?
These are just official import and export quotas, there are only a few movies a year. Imports are really imported. As for export, it is simply a joke. China Film Studios are indeed very powerful, but they do not have overseas distribution channels. The essence is to exchange import amounts with Hollywood companies for distribution.
"Secretary Zhou, why do you have to be issued by Beijing Film Academy?
Ye Mingxuan stood up directly, and his previous excitement and uneasiness turned into helplessness and disappointment. Is this considered cultural support? This is simply wrapping himself up and cutting leeks.
"You are Ye Mingxuan. As expected, a talented person has an unlimited future. I know what you think. I will ask you one thing, do you have an overseas distribution channel?"
There are pros and cons of this clause. You can't just say that it is good or bad. For large companies, it may be a bit unfair to have their own overseas distribution channels, but it is not impossible to avoid it. If you promote newcomers and go through your own channels, the formal films will not only have no harm, but will have many benefits.
Let’s talk about Ye Mingxuan’s situation. He has no distribution ability and even only has one bag company. His domestic business is done by Mr. Huang’s company, let alone foreign ones. So, isn’t it good to think about it like this?
However, there is more operational space in this. If you publish an agent, you hardly know who will release your film in the end, and how much is the screening rate? You don’t know whether you need to use promotion or dissemination. The so-called pros and cons depends on how you consider it.
Ye Mingxuan said in one sentence and said nothing. Yes, he is an unknown person, how can he be qualified to change this?
"You don't have to worry. This matter is not mandatory. If you want to participate, you should participate. If you don't want to participate, you should not participate. Just think about it yourself!"
Secretary Zhou smiled, but his eyes were cold. No one felt uncomfortable when Boss Ma suffered any loss. Stephen Chow dared not say that Wu Jing was just popular, and there were big guys on it, but no one else said anything. Where did a new director have so many problems? The Hero of Fire is being watched and cannot be operated now. Can you guarantee that the next drama can be passed?
"Secretary General Zhou, this is not the cultural support document, right?"
The question is Stephen Chow. Stephen Chow has an official identity and has read the cultural support documents. Among them, it is not written like this at all. Cultural support is a matter of the entire literary and artistic circle, not a cake for two or three people in the film industry. Don’t play a good hand of cards, and in the end the filmmakers will take the blame.
"I think you should solve the problem of rampant piracy in China first. It's not too late to go out again. That's it, Xiaoxuan, come back!"
Stephen Chow is sure of Ye Mingxuan's protection. Movies are art. Their generation is old and they need the younger generation to grow up as soon as possible. The younger generation also needs one person to carry this banner. Wu Jing thinks so, and Stephen Chow also thinks so. Young people should give him enough room for growth.
"Since that's the case, then... I won't give it to you. Finally, let's say that the film industry must be led by China Film Group. In any case, the public opinion tool of movies must be under control!"
Secretary Zhou shrugged, and when he was the only one left in the room, he collapsed on the sofa, sighed tiredly, and said to himself: "This kid, the leader is indeed right. I hope you can be more angry in the future. Don't make the film poor and backward like those old guys. In the end, I won the award myself and can't help with anything."
