In China, there is no clear dividing line between commercial films and literary films, and most films are only labeled as "drama films" and are just mentioned, so there is some dispute on this point.
In the minds of old-school filmmakers, literary films represent a director’s highest artistic pursuit of his film career, and they often focus on expressing the soul of the director’s art, without the slightest smell of copper, so they prefer some with low cost, but with a degree of completion. A very high-quality film with brilliant connotations and shooting techniques.
This standard is bold and original in some of today's ideas, but eclectic independent filmmakers seem a little scornful.
A good movie is good, and a bad movie is not good. Isn't it better to make a movie that is full of artistic sense and can sell well
In terms of artistic expression, "Cat and An Xue" is not inferior to those of the participating films. At the same time, it has a smooth rhythm and a catchy plot. Isn't it a model movie that perfectly integrates literary and commercial films in the minds of countless people
The voices of questioning also represent the hearts of countless audiences.
But unfortunately, the dedicated filmmakers currently occupying the jury seats of major film awards ceremonies are not young, and they do not have the courage to break the rules.
Although it is not said on the surface, "Cat and An Xue" has been classified as a candidate for the award, but behind the scenes, they still do not agree with the high commercial value of this article.
Meng Chuan and others, even if they didn't understand it once or twice, they reacted later.
My heart is annoyed and inexplicable, I just feel that the film industry is really difficult to mix, not just filming the film well, that's all.
Meng Chuan took a sip of wine and sighed: "I don't care, what's the matter with you? It's understandable that a movie star didn't get it. After all, you are so short in age, how can you even get a 'Rookie Award' No? What does your company do for food?"
There is no absolute fairness in the world, and domestic and foreign film award ceremonies are mixed: the top award ceremonies focus on seniority, while a slightly better award ceremony will also take into account contacts and word of mouth. Behind the company's management to decorate the facade...
In short, there is a turbulent game behind the scenes. If the company does not work hard on the public relations for the artists, even if it has the strength, it will be difficult to emerge in this star-studded place.
Meng Chuan worked hard abroad in the early years, and has seen many superstars with excellent acting skills, and has worked with many actors after returning to China.
It is no exaggeration to say that, in his opinion, based on Zhou Yuhe's performance in the movie, not to mention a mere rookie award, even the best actor can afford it!
It's just that he is too young now, and he has no foundation in the circle, and he is not playing cards at the same table with the actors who are competing for the best actor.
Such a potential young man, and Meng Chuan witnessed his transformation with his own eyes, was of course resentful at the cold reception he received at this time.
Zhou Yuhe's face was indifferent, it was just a newcomer award. He had never seen any big storms in his last life, so he wouldn't jump for this matter, but the signs of this incident made him faintly annoyed.
He said: "Is has become a mess inside, how can I take care of me, an artist's award?"
When Meng Chuan and his assistant heard it, their faces were positive.
He heard some news recently, he thought it was groundless, but now...
Meng Chuan approached and asked in a deep voice, "Is Mr. Ji really...?"
Zhou Yuhe glanced at him, and Meng Chuan immediately fell silent.
Recently, there is a rumor in the company that Mr. Ji has been admitted to the hospital three times. This news has made some guys in the company start to move.
Ji Chen's uncle Ji Yuan is more than ruthless, but lacks in means and heart. The reputation he has left in the entertainment circle over the years is not very good. In addition, his early years and his second son, that is, Ji Chen's father's death, is unclear. It is not Mr. Ji. A suitable successor in mind.
At that time, Ji Chen was still young. In order to protect his little grandson from the Ji clan's personal negotiation, Mr. Ji delegated power to Ji Yuan, and let him take the real power of the Ji family to attract people's attention, while he and his grandson secretly gathered their strength.
Unexpectedly, this release is for many years, and when Ji Chen grows up, he wants to take it but can't take it back.
Mr. Ji was ill and did not take care of the company's chores all the year round, and handed it over to Ji Yuan and the professional management team hired by him.
Under Ji Yuan's many years of management, is has changed its staff from inside to outside, and the executives are loyal to him.
Compared with a family business, the current IS is more like his private property. Whoever pleases the eye will support anyone, and whoever offends him will have no place in the IS.
To break such an iron plate, Ji Chen's road to winning the throne is obviously difficult.
Fortunately, Ji Chen was a hundred times stronger than his uncle. Not only did he not lose the thunder, but his scheming was even more astounding.
He took a different approach. Instead of entering the top management of IS as a manager, he became an IS artist and started from the entertainment industry.
Over the years, he seems to be addicted to fun and uninhibited, but in fact he has accumulated a lot of connections.
In the company, he used his artist status as a cover to catch Ji Yuan's cronyism and win over a group of employees and executives who had long been silent.
A few years ago, he had been covering up his play with capital. Recently, several films he invested in have achieved good results, which gave him confidence and became more and more reckless in front of Ji Yuan, which made this "smart" uncle, In hindsight, he became vigilant.
Ji Chen is already full of wings, and the uncle is just "vigilant", which is far from enough for him who is eager to take the position. What he wants is an excuse, a mistake, and an opportunity to drive Ji Yuan out of the board of directors.
Master Ji's "critical illness" is the flaw that the grandparents and grandsons deliberately sold to Ji Yuan.
A sneer appeared on Zhou Yuhe's lips.
He still remembered that after the disfigurement, he was lying in the hospital, watching the bitter tactics staged by his grandparents and grandchildren, the old man Ji's cane made of sandalwood slapped Ji Chen all at once. It is no problem to live another five or eight years, not to mention now
He hasn't been with Ji Chen at this point in his last life.
Zhou Yuhe tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and saw Meng Chuan's shy look, wanting to gossip and being embarrassed, he paused for a while before saying, "Old man is fine, he just has good intentions and wants to pave the way for Ji Chen."
Meng Chuan nodded, thinking that this is is also about to come, no wonder Zhou Yuhe was not in charge.
Meng Chuan tilted his head to think for a while and said, "But it's not the way to go on like this. I don't know how long this battle will take to end. Do you just let them spend it? You can't even get a newcomer award to do public relations for you. , not to mention after that?"
Zhou Yuhe was silent.
Meng Chuan's mind flashed, and he hurriedly said: "You are somewhat of a top traffic in the entertainment industry, why don't you set up a personal studio?"
"Personal studio?" Zhou Yuhe was also stunned.
To be honest, stars nowadays prefer liberal studios to being attached to big companies. In the past, all resources were in the hands of companies and brokers, and the power of life and death was completely controlled by others. Now, with the development of the Internet, the traffic effect and fan effect of celebrities are increasing, and the fast Internet has helped these resources to be more efficient. It is easy to come to the door, so whether it is to set up a dedicated studio in a large company or go out to work alone, this model is extremely popular now.
"Yeah, why didn't I think of it!" Zhou Yuhe's face showed a sudden realization.
Actually no wonder he. In his last life, he was with Ji Chen not long after he became popular, and he has been tied to Ji Chen since then.
Ji Chen's is is Zhou Yuhe's is. All the resources are first tilted towards him. There has never been a lack of manpower or funds to manage public relations. Naturally, he never thought of opening a personal studio, even if there was a problem. , is also limited to the kind of studio that terminates the contract and goes it alone. It was only then that I remembered that the studio is also doing it within the company, so there is no need to wait until the contract is terminated.
This matter gave Zhou Yuhe an insight. He sat in the room and comforted Meng Chuan casually. After being seen by the other party as absent-minded, he was laughed and scolded and kicked out.
After going back, I discussed it with Yang Yuyi, and the other party also felt that it was feasible, so he asked his subordinates to write the application plan.
Recently, there has been a lot of right and wrong in IS. Yang Yu, as the golden agent of IS, has been deprived of real power before and rushed to lead the emerging actor department. But in the past two years, due to Zhou Yuhe's real ambition, he has re-established his prestige in is, and he has recently been promoted to manager, which is also regarded as a member of the senior management. He was so devastated that he really didn't have any extra thoughts to take care of Zhou Yuhe's affairs.
As soon as the studio's idea came out, Yang Yu suddenly felt that this was a good opportunity to get out of the whirlpool. It was rare that he didn't pour any cold water. is the upper layer.
I didn't expect this mention, it was mentioned for several weeks, like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no news.
The awards season is coming to an end, and the enthusiasm of the people has long since faded. I thought that "Cat and An Xue", which would kill the Quartet like "Emperor Xuantong", only won two "Best Film" and one "Best Film" in the end. Director" and a "Best Newcomer Award".
As a result, half of the people shouted that they couldn't understand it, and the other half were secretly proud.
Although the most important Golden Dragon Award has not yet been announced, most people have already expected the ending, so they are not very interested.
What really caused the storm was another big news: Ji Chen was getting engaged to Meng Churong!
