Chapter 344 344, the Problem of the King Bomb
Sun Hao, the second round of negotiations between the mainland and Hong Kong film industry is about to begin. The focus of this negotiation is the definition of co-production films by both sides.
According to the explanation of Hong Kong, the male lead, male second and female lead should all be from Hong Kong, and other inconspicuous roles can be given to a few mainlanders. Anyway, they are just embellishments and cannot carry the box office of any movie.
But the mainland disagrees. We think that since it is a co-production, we must follow the rules. If the male lead is given to Hong Kong, then the female lead must be from the mainland; vice versa, if the male lead is from the mainland, then it doesn’t matter if the female lead is from Hong Kong.
…
[Mainland filmmakers can’t carry the box office]
Sun Hao, when a certain mainland leader heard such a comment from the Hong Kong film industry, he laughed at the time. Well, since you think so, then we will have a [Sun Hao]!
This time, we want [Sun Hao] to take a stroll at the Academy Awards ceremony.
[Sun Hao], a student from a mainland art school, as a director and screenwriter, his films have grossed nearly 1.2 billion US dollars worldwide. How many people in Hong Kong can do that?
…
Sun Hao, there are also smart people in the Hong Kong film industry. They have recently passed a motion in the Legislative Council - "Hong Kong Excellent Talent Introduction Plan". People like Zhao Yanzi and your classmate Zhang Ziyi have already submitted naturalization applications to relevant departments in Hong Kong.
But everyone knows that their real target is actually you!
If you are a Hong Konger, then there is no need to discuss the role allocation in the co-production between the two places.
…
Sun Hao, do you know why I am so happy today?
It is because my brother's wish is about to come true, and this is why Yang Shucheng came here in person.
Two days ago, a leader in charge of the mainland and Hong Kong film negotiations slammed the table on the spot and asked what was wrong with Sun Hao?
Why do he have to invite Hong Kong movie stars to star in the movies he is shooting now? Don't we have actors in the mainland?
Someone might say that Hong Kong filmmakers have more box office appeal. Bah, I'm going to spit on his face.
Before the movie "Final Destination 1" came out, who in foreign countries knew Chen Guanxi and Fang Yuming...
And didn't this movie still make 415 million US dollars in the global film market? !
Of course, there are also accidental factors, because the plot of "Final Destination 1" is just linked to the Kenya Airways crash in [63 Prophecies].
But who can guarantee that when Sun Hao's next movie "The Martian" is released, the bomb of "Americans have never landed on the moon" will not explode?
Therefore, what I mean is, China Film Group, you should put some pressure on Sun Hao. Why did you find Qin Long to star in "The Martian"? I think Jiang Wen is good enough!
………
After the banquet, Sun Hao and Jiang Wen fell asleep with their feet together. Since he lay down, his mouth has not been idle. He poured out all the news he knew, regardless of whether it was true or false.
Sun Hao felt that Jiang Wen was very good at chatting, and often half a lie was mixed in with ten true sentences.
Just like what he just talked about, a certain leader said [Jiang Wen is good], well, this half sentence is probably a lie.
How could the person who was just banned by the higher-ups and banned from directing for five years be praised by the higher-ups [Jiang Wen is good] again? !
Wouldn't that be the leader slapping himself in the face?
However, the tricky thing now is how to change the role of "The Martian". Qin Long is not good enough, and Jet Li is even worse because he has already become a Singaporean citizen. Do we really have to use Jiang Wen...
In a daze, Sun Hao fell asleep without knowing when.
But due to his biological clock, Sun Hao woke up very punctually. At 5:30, before dawn, Sun Hao put on his sportswear and prepared to go out for a run.
"Hoo, hoo, hoo..."
Jiang Wen, who had chatted until late yesterday, was still snoring in his sleeping bag. Even his deafening snoring was mixed with a few silly laughs from time to time.
"Hehe..."
Perhaps this guy really dreamed that he was playing Tang Ren in "The Martian".
Shaking his head and ignoring him, Sun Hao opened the tent and went out.
In the brightly lit canteen area, several chefs got up earlier.
Before Sun Hao walked over, he smelled the fragrance of fried dough sticks. It seems that today, the villagers of Shangtan Village will have another good meal. Last time, two children fought over the last fried dough stick. This time, they should be able to eat enough.
Standing on the road beside the jujube forest, Sun Hao stretched his hands and feet. Just as he was about to run, Zhang Guoli, who was sleepy, hurried over in a cotton jacket.
"Director..."
"Uncle Guoli, you can just call me Sun Hao,"
"Well, Sun Hao, today Xiao Mo and Xie Tingfeng are going to compete in acting..."
"No need to compete, Mr. Yang said that Xie Tingfeng will go back to Hong Kong Island with us to attend this year's Academy Awards ceremony."
"Oh..."
Hearing this, Zhang Guoli slapped his forehead suddenly: "Look at my brain, I actually forgot that Xiao Xie is a young man who is highly praised by their Hong Kong film industry. It is impossible for him not to attend such an important awards ceremony."
"Hehe..."
Sun Hao smiled lightly and said nothing.
When it comes to the future of their children, parents will have some thoughts, it's not shameful!
Even though Sun Hao saw through his thoughts, Zhang Guoli didn't feel embarrassed. He pulled up his cotton jacket and continued:
"Sun Hao, I read the script of "Mountains and Seas" until midnight. It's very well written, as if you have really lived here for many years.
Of course, I am more confident in being the substitute director, but there are some issues I still want to talk to you about first..."
"Uncle Guoli, how about we talk while running?" Sun Hao pointed to the path ahead.
"Oh..., OK!"
Zhang Guoli was slightly stunned, then took off the cotton jacket on his body, hung it on the tree next to him, then stretched his arms and legs, and ran with Sun Hao.
"Sun Hao..."
"Before asking questions formally, I want to say thank you first. After being with you for two months, the child has really changed a lot.
Last night, after drinking and returning home, he even took the initiative to make me a cup of honey water..."
"Haha..." Sun Hao laughed.
"Uncle Guoli, you don't need to thank me for this. The person you should thank is Xie Tingfeng. In the crew, the two of them have been in love and hate each other.
Especially when it comes to the relationship between parents, Xie Tingfeng has instilled his views into Zhang Mo.
Parents are parents, we are us. If our parents' relationship is not good, we should not hate them, but encourage them to pursue their own happiness.
Just like my father, the fourth brother, if he really finds an 18-year-old girl, I am also very happy to bless him..."
"Uh..." Zhang Guoli was stunned.
How could this be?
Is the information provided to me by Luo Xiuchun false? She said that Xiao Mo and Xie Tingfeng fight every day?
And just like this, Sun Hao has already run away, so Zhang Guoli speeds up and quickly catches up.
"Sun Hao, how many days do you need me to cover for you this time?"
"Five days, no longer than a week!"
"So, where do you think I should shoot?"
"Just follow the actors' pace, all you have to do is grasp the overall situation."
"Then..., what's the focus?"
"Focus on the details, the details of life!
We can't let the fellow villagers living in the northwest take a look and jump up and down and curse, these grandsons are just acting!"
