Knowing that he couldn't run away, as long as Feng Xiaogang met him, he would definitely talk about it in front of the leader. Therefore, it was impossible for Ye Ming to run away. Therefore, Ye Ming asked curiously: "Feng Xiaogang Director, what kind of meeting is this? I just came back from Hong Kong City and I don’t know what happened. You actually want the leader to summon us to a meeting? " Under normal circumstances, leaders will only convene a meeting when there are relatively important matters, and it is impossible to convene a meeting without a certain status. But the leader has many things to do. If it is not important, it is impossible for the leader to spare time for meetings. Ye Ming understands this very well. Feng Xiaogang was not polite at all, complaining: "It's not a big thing, it's not a small thing. The third master summoned us this time. Basically, I can guess why he kicked you, but also Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige has been summoned. It's just for the Golden Rooster Award. What else can they do? What else can those experts do besides scheming to curry favor with the leaders? What have they done for Chinese films? Their contributions are all from a group..." At this time, Ge You coughed twice and said: "Okay, okay, Teacher Feng, you just understand some things in your heart. It's easy to offend people when you say it. You still think you haven't offended enough people. These things are all The leadership decides what we should do." If Feng Xiaogang's words were known by reporters, they would probably be criticized by those experts again. Ye Ming knew very well that there had been a grudge between Xiaogang Pao and the Golden Rooster Award for more than ten years, and the two sides did not buy it. At this time, Feng Xiao calmed down a little and said, "Come on, Ye Ming, you know this is the case. I heard that your [Crazy Stone] was not shortlisted for this year's Golden Rooster Award, right?" I knew those grandsons would do this. Look at what's on those Golden Rooster Film Festivals. The combined box office of all the films is not even half of the box office of your film. I have the nerve to let you go. If you are shortlisted, they still won the prize. If they give you the prize, they will become a decoration. If they don't give you the prize, it will be a slap in their own faces. Therefore, they might as well not give it to you at all. Let you be shortlisted, out of sight, out of mind.” This actually gave Feng Xiaogang a feeling of sympathy. In fact, when he was in [Party A and Party B], Feng Xiaogang originally thought that since he had achieved such a high box office, under such a situation, it was finally time for him to become famous. No matter how he said it, The Best Director award should always be yours, otherwise your contribution to Chinese films will be in vain. But at this time, Feng Xiaogang, who was full of enthusiasm, was given a slap in the face. He was not even allowed to win the Golden Rooster Award, and he was not even allowed to be shortlisted. Party B] was shortlisted. It can be said that this is quite a cheating result, which makes Feng Xiaogang extremely depressed. Different from the Golden Rooster Award, the Hundred Flowers Award is in full swing. It can be said that as long as Ge You is nominated, basically the Best Actor of the Hundred Flowers Award will not become someone else's, because it is an audience vote, and there was no Internet at that time. Speaking of voting, it is basically impossible to operate in secret. The Hundred Flowers Award can slap the faces of the Golden Rooster Award experts almost every year. This is the difference between Chinese experts and audiences. Chinese film experts basically have only one task, which is to treat the audience as primary school students and themselves as teachers. Even if the teacher says that one plus one equals three, the primary school students have to be right. However, the current contradiction in the Chinese film industry is the contradiction between the increasing appreciation level of the audience and the declining IQ of the experts.
Ye Ming saw that he was involved and quickly said: "I'm not surprised about this matter. If you don't get shortlisted, don't be shortlisted. What's the big deal? But none of us were shortlisted. If the leader has anything to do with us, he won't let it go anyway. Let’s join the film industry, shall we?” If that's really the case, then the level of leadership is really beyond the understanding of ordinary people. Although Feng Xiaogang was a young man, he still said after a while: "Well, the leader will never deceive people like that." In fact, Feng Xiaogang really ignored the level of the leader. When the agreed time came, the three of them went together, but this time they were not in the conference room. Therefore, this also meant that this was not a serious meeting, but something like Something like a ventilation meeting. There are two large sofas in Han Shanping's office. On one sofa are Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, while on the other are Ye Ming, Feng Xiaogang and Ge You. The barriers are clearly defined, like well water. Not to be outdone, this also represents a huge gap between fifth-generation directors and sixth-generation directors. In fact, this gap cannot be made up by box office. Han Shanping seemed to have just come over from a meeting. He hurriedly threw the documents on the table and said with a cup of steaming tea: "I'm looking for you guys today. In fact, it's not a big deal, so don't be restrained. Now, what I want to say is about the Golden Rooster Award. What do you think of it? Director Zhang, please tell me first." At this time, Zhang Yimou looked more and more dull like a farmer. Director Zhang was actually very good at taking advantage of this. Therefore, he laughed twice, like an old farmer from northern Shaanxi squatting in front of his door to eat. Said: "I really haven't considered this matter. I've been busy with an opera recently, and "No One Is Less" has been shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival. When the time comes, I will go there to promote it. This matter cannot be delayed. , I guess I won’t be able to go then.” Zhang Yimou is so awesome. If you don’t go directly, you simply look down on the quality of the Golden Rooster Awards. If I want to go, I will go to a film festival like Cannes. Only then can I show Zhang Yimou’s ability. And with such a tone, everyone present Only Zhang Yimou had the confidence to speak out like this. People really have such ability. Even Han Shanping can't help it. Zhang Yimou made a movie about Project Hope and actually said that it can be shortlisted for an international award. What does this mean? It shows that the international community still respects our Project Hope. It is very recognized and praised. Therefore, the country must strongly support the national teachers to go out and see. Han Shanping hesitated for a moment and said: "Since it's like this, forget it. Director Chen, what about you? You should definitely go. Your movie [Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin] is the movie with the most nominations. If this If you don’t go to a film festival, then it won’t be easy to talk about it.” In fact, Han Shanping also had his own wishful thinking. He knew that Zhang Yimou's "No One Can Be Missed" was shortlisted for Ghana. Therefore, he did not expect Zhang Yimou to pass when he installed it. But Chen Kaige was different. Chen Kaige The movie is a big hit, and there is almost no problem winning awards. The question is how many awards he will win under such a situation. And at this time, if Chen Kaige goes, then with "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin" If the main creators of such a movie come together, it will definitely support the entire film festival. Just look at the cast list of "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin" and you will know that this is a heavyweight film. However, it is a pity that Han Shanping considered such an issue from the perspective of an official. In such a situation, with Ye Ming here, the box office of Ye Ming's "Crazy Stone" was There are several streets away from [Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin]. Therefore, Han Shanping didn't care about Chen Kaige's face when he asked like this. The slap was very loud. Therefore, Chen Kaige's face had no luster at the moment. If we talked about it in private, Chen Kaige would really give Han Shanping face, but if we talked about it in public, wouldn't it make Chen Kaige look bad? Moreover, Zhang Yimou is not going. As an international director, Chen Kaige will naturally not lower his status and go. If Zhang Yimou is not going, I will not go either. Therefore, Chen Kaige said very politely: "I will participate in an event at the Tokyo International Film Festival. Therefore, my mentor Hu will not be able to go, and the schedule may be separated." If you, Zhang Yimou, go to Cannes, I, Chen Kaige, cannot be abroad. Although the Tokyo International Film Festival is not as influential as the Cannes Film Festival, it is impossible for me, Chen Kaige, to be in China. This face is still needed. Chen Kaige's reasons are actually quite sufficient. In such a matter, Han Shanping did not think of this problem. He accidentally glanced at Zhang Yimou and understood that Chen Kaige was competing with Zhang Yimou. He couldn't help but secretly think in his heart. He sighed, this matter was a bit difficult to handle. In fact, for this Golden Rooster Award, as long as Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou go to one of them, there will be enough points to buy. But in fact, this is almost impossible. Either both directors go, or else Go to none. At that moment, Han Shanping glanced at Feng Xiaogang and said, "Director Feng, what do you mean?"
Feng Xiaogang was even more straightforward. Although he said he was not as angry as Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, he was very straightforward and said directly: "Boss, please spare me. I also have my own affairs." , I originally wanted to shoot [A Sigh] this time, but it was said that this is a literary film, which will not be very marketable, and they asked me to shoot a New Year's film. And they said that if I shoot three New Year's films, that would make people I was filming this [Sigh], so under such a situation, even if I wanted to go through it, it would be impossible. I don’t have time. The crew will be very busy by then and I won’t be able to spare the time at all. Starring Yuzi, I will even say that I will be so busy that I won’t have time to go home. Besides, I wasn’t even shortlisted for this one, so why bother trying to make fun of me? It’s so embarrassing when I get there. You said I’m going to receive the award, but I’m still going to present the award. Nothing counts. " Feng Xiaogang is very poor. Even when talking to leaders, he always looks for opportunities to be talkative. But Feng Xiaogang's complaint is actually not unreasonable. Even those who were shortlisted, such as Chen Kaige, did not go, while those who were not shortlisted did not feel ashamed to join in the fun. Han Shanping also knew what Feng Xiaogang said, and he was at the scene when the matter was settled. Therefore, it seems that Feng Xiaogang's words are a bit unconvincing, and he directly rejected the film festival with the help of making movies. Since it was Feng Xiaogang's movie, Ge You must not be able to run away. Therefore, Han Shanping took a look at Ge You's honest face, sighed and said, "Forget it, everyone is not easy to worry about. , Ye Ming, what do you think, don’t tell me that you also have a movie to make. [Bright Sword] You don’t have to worry about it. Someone else will worry about it. I’ll keep an eye on it and nothing unexpected will happen. " Of the five people found, four already said they had good reasons not to go, and the only one left was Ye Ming. This person Han Shanping would not let him go easily no matter what. Moreover, Ye Ming did not apply for any movies. Even if he applied, Han Shanping decided that he would not be approved. Feng Xiaogang had already applied for it long ago. Otherwise, the approval will be deferred. Ye Ming knew early on that this matter would be his turn. He was the most junior and could not rely on his elders like Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, but he definitely could not be as talkative as Feng Xiaogang. Looking at Han Shanping's expression, he knew that if he didn't have a good reason, it would be absolutely impossible for him to shirk it. Therefore, Ye Ming thought for a while and then said: "I don't have any movies to shoot, and the current progress of [Bright Sword] is also It's quite good, but Qiong Yao has a TV series to shoot, using the original cast of Huanzhugege. The director has not changed, Li Ping is still the director, and plays the leading role. It’s still me, Zhao Wei, Su Youpeng and Lin Xinru. According to Director Li Ping's habit, it is estimated that the possibility of working in two shifts is relatively high. I guess I will not have time to participate by then. " Han Shanping didn't expect Ye Ming to do this. What happened to the movie without Ye Ming? It was because he still had a TV series waiting for him? At that moment, Han Shanping asked people to look up the TV series Ye Ming mentioned, and his people quickly reported back that there was such a TV series. Han Shanping was a little unhappy: "I don't know why I applied for this TV series." The subordinate also said very euphemistically that the TV series named "Love in the Rain" was co-produced with China Channel, and China Channel naturally had its own reporting channel. Now Han Shanping was a little speechless. As a national channel, Tianchao Channel naturally has its own privileges. Even if Han Shanping wanted to stop this, it would be impossible. Come on, now, none of the five people had time, which made Han Shanping very depressed. (To be continued)
