Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was a bit embarrassing, under such a situation, Feng Xiaogang also said: "Master San, for this matter, doesn't it mean that there are many celebrities and experts who have time? It should be about the same as us. Well, I heard that some of them are quite good at the box office. It seems that one movie "The Mountain, That Man, That Dog" has a box office of 350 million in Japan. So, in this way, whether we go or not, it seems It’s no big deal.” As soon as these words came out, Zhang Yimou couldn't hold it in anymore. They are all directors. Who doesn't know what this thing is like? 350 million sounds quite amazing, but what is it actually like? The thing is, this real number line is a joke. And only Feng Xiao could say such a sinister thing just now. Zhang Yimou wanted to laugh but didn't. He immediately picked up the teacup in front of him and pretended to drink tea. Chen Kai simply picked up a newspaper and covered his face pretending to study, but from Chen Kaige's You can tell from his movements that he was probably very happy at this time. And if no one follows up on this statement, it means it means nothing. However, there was really a lot of support at the scene. Ye Ming followed up with a look of surprise and said: "350 million, that's really a lot of money for young and old. Our country has never seen such a box office. Shooting this The director of the movie is a talented person, but I haven't heard of it beforehand." Regardless of whether Ye Ming meant it or not, these words made people angry anyway. Ge Youzi made a fuss and said: "Ye Ming, you don't know. The box office in Japan is naturally calculated in Japanese yen. The exchange ratio between our country's money and the Japanese yen is the same." One hundred and twenty-seven, after conversion, you will know how much the box office is." Calculated in this way, in fact, the box office of "The Mountain, That Man, That Dog" is only three million. In fact, there is nothing to show off at all. It just looks like soap bubbles in the sun. It looks beautiful. These words were probably a sign of scorning Han Shanping. Han Shanping looked at the three of them with his glasses widened and said angrily: "You are interested, right? You are too busy, right? We have to encourage young people to make movies. Let me tell you, I don’t care about this matter anymore. It doesn’t matter who cares whoever you like. It doesn’t have much to do with me anyway. Now, I won’t leave a few people to eat. Let’s do whatever it is that needs to be done. " This naturally means seeing off guests. In fact, Han Shanping knows better than Ye Ming and others about the Golden Rooster Award. It is just a matter of a few people in the system doing it for fun. Whoever obeys will be followed. That's probably what it means. Judging from this situation, the five of them are determined not to leave, and Han Shanping has given up. Do you want to go or not? After coming out, Feng Xiaogang stopped Ye Ming and said, "Don't go anywhere else at night. Just go back to my house and let your sister-in-law cook some vegetables and let the three of us have a drink or two. Some of the words are just chatter."
Ye Ming naturally wanted to do this. The three of them were walking out when Feng Xiaogang suddenly stopped and shouted to a middle-aged man who looked like a migrant worker: "Zhao Da Da?" The middle-aged man who was reading the newspaper in the bulletin board had his back turned to them. The man turned around. Feng Xiaogang said in surprise: "Zhao DaDang, brother DaDang, it is indeed you, but I haven't seen you for a few years. I heard that you were dropped to Shu. When did you come back?" The middle-aged man named Zhao Bingdao glanced at Feng Xiaogang, and it took him a long time to recognize him: "Gangzi, I didn't expect it to be you. I haven't seen you in these years, and you have become a famous director. It's not easy to meet you. .” Feng Xiaogang chuckled and said: "Brother Bold, what you said seems to be that I am unreasonable. Youzi, Ye Ming, let me introduce to you, this is my good friend Zhao Guoqing. We were a projection team back then. Yes, Brother Daudao went to the edge of the countryside to play movies at night. It was the hardest work, so we all called him Brother Daring. We walked around, and it happened that we hadn’t seen each other for a while. Let’s go home together. Have two drinks.” As he said that, he pulled Zhao DaDang and walked out. To be honest, at this time, Feng Xiaogang's enthusiasm made Zhao DaBang a little overwhelmed, but after all, it was an old relationship. Slowly, Zhao DaDang and Zhao Guoqing quickly adapted to Feng Xiaogang's style. In Zhao Guoqing's eyes, this kid is still so dazed and green, which means that he has not changed much at all. Even if he becomes an international director, it is actually not a big deal at this time. When they got to the car, Feng Xiaogang introduced the people behind him while driving: "Brother Bold, let me introduce to you. The bald guy behind is Ge You, and the young one is Ye Ming. They are all my friends. Brother Tie, there is nothing to say." If you can’t tell me, just tell me what you came here to do with me. If you need help, brother, I am obligated.” Zhao Guoqing smiled and said: "There are very few Chinese people who don't know them two. The portrait of this young man Ye Ming is already on the Sprite drink. Now it can be found wherever Sprite is sold. Mr. Ye's portrait. You and Ge You are a perfect match and have become a golden partner. This is not easy. I am much more powerful than we originally dreamed of." If this was said by ordinary people, then Feng Xiaogang would at best regard such a thing as a compliment, but in fact it would not be the same thing at all. But if Zhao Guoqing will come out like this, then he has to believe it. Because he knew Zhao Guoqing's character very well. He was a down-to-earth person who was single-minded. He would never praise people for no reason. This made Feng Xiaogang very happy: "Brother Bold, what you said is that we have just made some achievements. We are not serving the people in the same way. Just like we were the same in the projection team back then, we are all revolutionary." A screw, the difference is that before the show we showed movies, now we just make movies. Tell me about you, why are you so polite to me?" Zhao Guoqing pondered for a moment and said: "Actually, I personally have nothing to do, but I did come to the General Administration to do something. However, these words are a long story. Gangzi, what do you think of our country's film market? Look at this, how does it compare to ten years ago? To be honest, I know you are a mouthful, so don’t play tricks on me." At this time, Feng Xiaogang understood that Zhao Guoqing said such serious words, and knew that Brother Zhao was really serious, so he began to take it seriously. Although Feng Xiaogang is usually seen as a bit talkative, he is actually very concerned about changes in the film market. At that moment, Feng Xiaogang thought about it for a while and then said: "Since Brother Daring, you want to listen to the truth, let me tell you. In fact, the movie market is not very good. It can't be said to be prosperous. Ten years ago, our movie ticket price It was 25 cents, but at that time our movie box office was billion. Now our ticket prices have almost increased a hundred times, but the movie box office is only 1 billion. To be honest, it is relatively It’s shameful, and the bulk of it is taken up by those imported films. It can be said that Chinese filmmakers have completely lost their dignity.” Perhaps Feng Xiaogang's words have a little bit of personal thought, but generally speaking, what he said is still correct. Zhao Guoqing nodded and said: "Yes, the ticket price has increased a hundred times, but our box office revenue has more than doubled without increasing. This is the result of ten years of hard work by our Chinese filmmakers." It's such a shame to go out. Our Golden Rooster Award is said to be on the same level as the Golden Horse and Golden Statue Awards, but in fact it is not as authoritative as others. We are just putting money in our own faces. But many filmmakers nowadays simply cannot see such a situation. If this continues, our country's film studios will reach a dead end with no way out. That is to say, your movie has opened a window for Chinese movies, but it is impossible for those experts to see it. In fact, even if they have seen it, they pretend not to see it. Otherwise, it would not be possible to have hundreds of flowers every year, but Golden Rooster has been shortlisted. None can arrive. Is what I said correct? " Although Zhao Guoqing said he grew up as a member of the Street Squatting Committee, he still had a heart that cared about the country and the people. This was the Zhao Guoqing Feng Xiaogang knew, and it had not changed at all over the years. Feng Xiaogang actually understands such a situation very well. In such a matter, there are some problems that he cannot solve. At that moment, there was a hint of sadness and helplessness in Feng Xiaogang's words. Opening the car window, the summer evening breeze blew gently across the face that had begun to show a trace of vicissitudes. Feng Xiaogang watched the sunset slowly set, and the temper of a passionate literary young man rose again.
We, Feng Xiaogang, were also a former middle school boy. At that moment, Feng Xiaogang said: "Brother Zhao, I am very clear about what you are talking about, but what is actually going on? This is not something we can worry about. To be honest, even if we talk about Han Mr. Shanping, it is impossible for him to solve such a problem. I dare say that even the director of the General Administration may not be able to solve this problem. Maybe, or higher up, the leaders of the Ministry of Culture If you speak up, you might be able to get some hope." At this time, Zhao Guoqing suddenly retorted with righteous words: "I don't like to hear what you said, Gangzi. There are things that we can't control. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. As a filmmaker, naturally It is to express your own voice. Only if you express your own voice and let the leaders hear it, then in such a situation, can it be said that it is truly worthy of the conscience of our filmmakers. If you don’t go If you do it, how do you know if you can complete it?" Such words are really impassioned, and have the meaning of eating gutter oil and worrying about Zhongnanhai's heart. Ye Ming could occasionally see from behind that Zhao Guoqing was definitely an old-school, idealistic generation of intellectuals who worried about the world's worries first and rejoiced after the world's happiness. In fact, from this point of view Talk about it, it’s not a big deal, talk about it with your students on the podium, remember it, express your emotions, it’s not a big deal. That is to say, if we switch to real life, then such a thing is impossible to succeed. Basically speaking, when it comes to such a problem, most things are actually relatively obvious, such as movies Although many people have seen these shortcomings in the market and can solve them, there are simply none. At least not now. Zhao Guoqing's words are somewhat idealistic. But it just so happens that Feng Xiaogang is actually such an idealistic person, or he used to be such an idealistic person. No matter what it is, on such a matter, Zhao Guoqing's words gave Feng Xiaogang a bright light in the darkness. These words made Feng Xiaogang unable to say anything for a long time. He needs to think about what these words mean. After returning to Feng Xiaogang's home, while Feng Xiaogang and Zhao Guoqing were parking their cars, Ye Ming stood aside and said, "Teacher Ge, what do you think of what Brother Zhao said?" Ge You looked like a very honest little man, but he was actually a very thief. He said with a smile: "The goal of this matter is very great. I support Brother Zhao's ideals spiritually, but I still want to be in China or in reality. How do you think about it? You have a movie theater yourself, so this matter has the closest relationship with you." These words are almost the same, and Ge You asked back. Ye Ming said with a smile: "This matter, the ideal is very full, the reality is very skinny, it cannot be accomplished by two of us. Huaxia Film Factory has Han Shanping, Zhang Yimou, Director Feng and you tall guys in front." No matter what, it’s not my turn to come forward.” Ge You smiled slyly and said, “You are such a thief.” Ye Ming showed a mutual smile, and everyone understood it tacitly. Ye Ming and Ge You actually looked at such a problem from an outsider's perspective. Therefore, they could see something from this perspective. But neither of the two very chicken thieves said that Zhao Guoqing and Feng Xiaogang were people with ideals. Since they were talking about people with ideals, then in such a matter, two chicken thieves There is no need to be willing to expose such an ideal easily. People with dreams are always happy. After stopping the car, Feng Xiaogang still had not been able to recover from such an ideal state. After entering the house, Xu Fan saw Feng Xiaogang who was in such a state of despair and said, "What's going on? Does it mean tomorrow is the end of the world?" Ye Ming then replied: "It's much more serious than this. The collapse of the ideal world is even more heartbreaking than the destruction of the real world." Poor-talking, this is another standard poor-talking person. This is Xu Fan's impression of Ye Ming. (To be continued)
