New Age Artists

Chapter 35 If you never come back, then you never come back!
Some of the actors present looked solemn, while others were confused.

There are also those who are even angrier than when their own fathers were scolded.

As for some fourth-generation directors, their expressions gradually became solemn.

Leaders like Han Sanping couldn't help but clench their fists. He was under tremendous pressure.

In order to cope with the clash of blockbusters, Hollywood has put pressure on China Film Group through the WTO, demanding that the film market be further opened up and more Hollywood films be introduced.

"This grandson is really good at talking." Wang Zhonglei gritted his teeth as he watched from below.

Who should we choose to flatter Hong Kong Island?

What's the point of trying to save the industry in a roundabout way? Who are you calling a traitor?

"I feel that we, the new generation of filmmakers, have a mission and a social responsibility that we acknowledge, which is also our honor."

"I can say without hesitation that I took out three songs for this drama, "Dimples", "Thousands of Miles Away" and "My Sky", each of which can be a hit single from an album."

"Each song could earn tens of millions of dollars in revenue, but I released them all for free. Many record companies called me an idiot."

Shen Santong's self-deprecation made many people at the scene laugh.

There are also people I admire for their talent.

Moreover, he has a strong character and is able to throw out real money, which most people cannot do.

Some nodded and murmured, it was really stupid.

These three money printing machines were thrown away.

"Even though I have made a lot of preparations, I still have no expectations and no confidence in the box office. This is the current situation."

"I saw some media reports that Supermarket will take over from A World Without Thieves and Kung Fu Hustle. Objectively speaking, it can't keep up."

"What is the current film market like? We don't play tricks. At least when I go to the cinema to watch movies, I usually watch imported and Hong Kong films. I am basically not interested in mainland films. Don't pretend, this is basically the case."

Everyone laughed. Although they said they liked art, their bodies were honest.

A movie ticket is not cheap. When you go to the cinema, the only domestic films that can attract audiences are those by Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang.

"In the minds of the audience, imported films are greater than Hong Kong films and greater than domestic films. This is an inherent concept and is also a fact at present."

"I have no confidence in the box office. It would be great if I could make 20 or 30 million. In terms of making money, it's not as good as the songs I wrote."

"If the film is released when the audience has confidence in domestic films, the film's revenue will be better, but there must be a beginning to make the audience believe in domestic films."

"This is something that directors Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang cannot do because they are already famous."

"The sixth generation of directors can't do it either. What they learn and understand are marginal themes that the audience doesn't like. They can make money from this, so there's no need to change."

"Therefore, it is up to us, the new generation of filmmakers, to change the audience's view of domestic films, to restore the audience's confidence in domestic films, to develop local films, and to prevent our people in front of and behind the scenes from being bullied."

Starting to gain altitude.

He wants to regain the right to speak, not only to be known as a new generation director, but also to completely cut ties with the sixth generation.

He started from scratch and, as the leader of a new generation of directors, took up the banner of domestic films.

Why did Huayi and Xiaogangpao both fail miserably, and in the end it was Fan Bingbing who was defeated?

It’s because Fan Bingbing doesn’t do good deeds in his daily life and doesn’t have enough points in the industry.

If only she were like Huang Xiaoming, going back to her hometown more often and doing more things.

If there is anything that needs to be promoted in my hometown, I will lend a hand for free as long as I have the time.

If she had this intention, she would not resist.

Xu Zheng and his wife also got into trouble.

Once the aftermath is dealt with, there will be no more noise.

why?
Because Xu Zheng has made outstanding contributions to the film industry.

The movie "Lost in Thailand" brought the domestic film market to the billion-dollar level and completely opened up the domestic film market.

It proves that the mainland team is not only capable, but also very capable.

Later, he pioneered new genres and themes for the film industry.

The road movie "Lost in Thailand", the realistic drama "Dying to Survive", and the fantasy romance "Time Raiders".

These are all contributions to the industry. Whether you like Xu Zheng or not, he did do something at a certain time.

Shen Santong would naturally try to gain industry points as much as possible if he had the chance.

In the future, if you are a little more fickle and cause problems, as long as it is not too excessive, nothing will happen.

Now is an opportunity.

It’s still the same old saying, problems of different eras should be viewed in the context of that era.

It was only later that Ning Hao became more and more greasy, but the movie "Crazy Stone" changed many viewers' views on domestic films.

Now Ning Hao is Shen Santong's younger brother, and it looks like "Green Grassland" is not much better than "Incense", and it is bound to flop again.

Then, he will be the first director of the new generation.

Ning Hao has been embroiled in a lot of controversy, including plagiarizing "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" and being called a genius director. He is so bad at marketing.

This is a common problem in the mainland, but Shen Santong consciously shapes his own image.

When you are out, your identity is given by yourself, so don't be polite.

"In ancient times, there were four major military merits: being the first to reach the top, breaking through the enemy's formation, beheading the general, and seizing the flag. Being the first to reach the top was the most important because it was the most difficult. One had to face swords, spears, halberds, boiling manure, and rocks. But to win a war, one had to be the first to reach the top."

"As a new generation of filmmaker, I have an obligation to fill the gap in the domestic film industry and gradually change the audience's perception of domestic films. I want to tell the audience that we are willing to respect them and work hard to make good films."

"Only in this way can more local films be produced, and there will be more opportunities and jobs for people both on and off the stage. Only in this way can others not dare to bully us, and even if they bully us, we can still make money without any consequences!"

"I, Shen Santong, am willing to be the first to promote domestic films!"

"If there is no return, there is no return. Someone will always fill the gap and change the audience's view of domestic films!"

clap clap clap!
The whole audience applauded, as all present were industry insiders.

Ignoring some idiots, the most sincere hope of most people in the film and television circles, both on and off the stage, is the growth of local production teams.

Only those who are involved in it will have a good life and avoid being humiliated.

The incident of Little White Dragon happened only a few months ago, but it still makes everyone feel uneasy.

at the same time.

The national premiere of "Supermarket" is also in full swing.

Guo Fan is an ordinary office worker at Travel Satellite TV (Hainan Satellite TV). He goes shopping with his girlfriend on the weekend.

My girlfriend wants to watch a movie, and she wants to watch a domestic movie.

"There are not many good domestic films. Imported films and Hong Kong films are the good ones. You might as well go watch Kung Fu again." Guo Fan advised his girlfriend. Thirty-five yuan for a ticket was not cheap.

"'Supermarket' is so good, the trailer is well made, and 'Dimples' sounds good too." My girlfriend insisted.

Guo Fan had no choice but to buy tickets for the second show, which would be at 8pm.

I looked at the time and there were still about ten minutes left.

The play opens nationwide at 6pm tonight and the first screening is almost over.

He wanted to hear the feedback first and prepare himself mentally.

It’s not that he despises domestic films. On the contrary, he has a dream of making movies, otherwise he wouldn’t have entered a TV station with a law degree.

The current domestic films are not worth trusting at all.

Be mentally prepared in advance and don't be overwhelmed by disgust.

"It's really good. I didn't expect that domestic films could be so good."

"Shagen's performance, that fart made me laugh to death, it turns out that he not only eats bread, but also drinks mineral water."

"Xu Zheng's performance is also very good. He is serious, but there is a contrast. He is also very good in modern comedy."

"I think Zhu Liao is funnier. His dancing is really fun. And the film and television boss said who do you think is Wu Bai? I really couldn't help it. Is it okay to tease Wu Bai like this?"

"The long and short electric batons are more fun. Zhu Liao's performance is really unbearable for me. That little braggart, and then dumbfounded in the end, made me laugh to death."

"I like the one who drinks soy milk. It seems to be Lao Gao from the kitchen team. He scalded himself. It's really interesting."

Guo Fan was surprised to hear the heated discussions around him. Could this play be really good?
