Homecoming of Rebirth

"Ahem." Qi Lei calmed down, "Pretend I didn't say anything!"

Old Qin laughed immediately, "What? Are you afraid too?"

Qi Lei, "It's okay!"

"Pretend! Keep pretending. I heard that you were scolded a lot in Hong Kong, and many of our media have reprinted the report."

Lao Qin's attitude of having nothing to do with himself is obviously to see Qi Lei's excitement.

Qi Lei couldn't hear it, he thought to himself, this group of people, there is no good thing!

But he didn't take it seriously, and he still had the heart to tease Lao Qin, "Then I don't think it's a big deal! Why isn't the reaction big?"

When Lao Qin heard this, "Who told you to find a big enough backer? After all, it's Zhongchuan!"

Logically speaking, when the news from Hong Kong came back, seminars would be held in the mainland, and various film studios and companies were also against it. Taking advantage of Hong Kong public opinion to stir up a wave of countermeasures, anyone can think of countermeasures.

However, as Lao Qin said, Zhongchuan is the background of CCTV and Beiguang after all.

These two have no constraints on the major film studios and private companies, but don't forget, these two are after all with the prefix of the country.

No one can say for sure how much government push is behind it.

Therefore, everyone is waiting and watching, and no one is foolishly taking this early bird.

But in fact, the higher-ups didn't think in this direction at all, it was purely Qi Lei's impromptu idea.

However, after the incident came out, I felt that this idea was not bad, but the resistance was relatively large, so the above took a wait-and-see attitude.

It would certainly be good if Hong Kong's resources could be utilized without causing much negative impact.

But if the response from all sides is very intense and brings uncontrollable influence, then naturally it will be nothing.

Anyway, let's see what the seminar can produce before making a decision.

In short, the problem was left to Bei Guang and Qi Lei.

Poor Liao Fanyi still doesn't know anything, thinking that it's no big deal just to find a place to teach communication studies.

Qi Lei knew it, but unfortunately, he only sympathized with Mr. Liao, and didn't remind him.

Instead, "It's okay!! Those people probably won't give you a good look, so be tough when the time comes, they're all pretending, we're not afraid!"

Liao Fanyi frowned, why do you feel that your kid's eyes are not right?

But after thinking about it, I pretended that I was afraid of what they were doing?What can't you do to me?

With a slack in his neck, "I'm afraid of them? Don't you know who's at the gate of the yamen? Can you control us?"

That was pretty tough.

After speaking, I was stunned.In the past, Professor Liao would never have said such a "young" thing as a teacher.

But now, why did it pop up out of nowhere?

This is because I have been with Qi Lei for a long time, and I am as naive as him!

But the problem is, childishness and impulsiveness are just Qi Lei's disguise, he is childish on the surface, but his heart is dirty!

The reason why I helped Lao Dong to dig a hole this time is because in the workplace, especially in a unit with a system like a university, it is not a bad thing to help the leader take the blame.

Take the blame for Dong, and others don't have the chance to take the blame.

"Okay!!" Regarding Liao Fanyi's words, Qi Lei nodded vigorously, "Mr. Liao, you are too kind. I won't say anything this time, I will leave it to you!"

Liao Fanyi: "..."

I always feel that something is not right, but Liao Fanyi feels that it is cheating him whenever he changes someone.

But, Dong Beiguo and Qi Lei, surely they can't?The relationship between these two people and him...

Liao Fanyi decided that it was impossible.

……

The symposium was named "Symposium on the Development of Film and Television Culture".

As I said before, the participants are all big names in the domestic film and television industry.

For example, several well-known actors at the actor and actress level.

In this era, for these actors, it is nothing new to participate in the above meetings, because the units they belong to are originally various art troupes, drama troupes and performance schools.

Send a notification and people will arrive.

For another example, there are some well-known behind-the-scenes workers, including directors and screenwriters.

Then there are various entertainment companies, as well as the bosses of private film production organizations.

The biggest cards here are of course the two Hua Yi brothers.

Finally, there are major film studios.

Young people in later generations are more familiar with it, such as Beijing Film Studio, Emei Film Studio, Modu Translation Factory, Children's Factory, etc.

These film studios were all products before the reform and opening up, and some even existed before liberation, and they belonged to the units within the system.

In the early years, he undertook the task of film and television promotion, and the films he made were mainly feature films.

After the reform and opening up, it is similar to the old state-owned enterprises, basically unable to play.

Except for a few film studios such as Beijing, Changchun, and Shanghai, which can rely on the government to survive, other film studios are not so easy to live.

For example, Guangxi Film Studio, Emei Film Studio, Xiaoxiang Film Factory, etc. are completely unable to adapt to the tide of the market economy, and can only be said to have a sigh of relief.

However, don't think that these labels are completely products of the system and have no merit.

Those who love old movies may have some understanding. Almost every family has one or two good movies worthy of praise.

The production level is actually not bad.

The problem still lies in being within the system, which naturally does not accept a high degree of acceptance of the market economy.

Movies and television in China, until the beginning of the 21st century, still tended to be more political propaganda tasks. If the business model is suddenly changed, it is not a set of things, and it will definitely not be able to adapt.

In addition, since the early 90s, the film industry began to seek a way out, and learned from the wrong people.

At that time, most directors of the fourth and fifth generations were more inclined to the European school, that is, literary films.

Anyone who lived in the 90s has the impression that at that time, the influence of the three major European film festivals in China far surpassed Oscar.

The directors in China are also bewildered, making many art films that cannot be released.

Until 2000, it can be said that there was only Feng Dapao who could be called a director of commercial films in China, and Lao Mouzi was always playing art films and playing magic.

It is conceivable that an art-focused film line will suffer a terrible death if it meets entertaining Hong Kong films and Hollywood films!

To be fair, many people in later generations think that Chinese films are not good, and this kind of bad is actually only from the beginning of the 21st century to 14 and 15. Commercial films in this decade are not good.

The Chinese movies of the eighties and 90s are actually quite high.

Even during these ten years, the level of our literary films has not regressed.

The problem still lies in commercial films, which is caused by the brutal growth of the film market under the control of capital.

As for the present, just look at the people who attended the seminar above.

The domestic film and television industry, from the label to the person in charge, from the actors to the directors and screenwriters, is surviving on such a big market. They are all poor, and then you want to bring in the Hong Kong circle?

Just say let us die?

It is conceivable how loud the opposition was.

Even before the seminar started, it was already undercurrent.

First of all, Qi Lei's only ally, CCTV Zou Chengbin.

The reason why he is an ally is because Zou Chengbin is the only one who agrees with Qi Lei's operation.

Because the biggest beneficiary is the Zhongchuan Production Center!

If Hong Kong movies are included, they will inevitably flow to Zhongchuan, can he not?

Therefore, during this period of time, Zou Chengbin was not idle, using all his connections to try to gain more support at the seminar.

However, what Zou Tai didn't expect was that the call from above came before the operation had any results.

Clearly tell him not to participate, or even to extract Zhongchuan from it, at least with a neutral attitude.

Although Zou Chengbin was absolutely unwilling, but his superiors instructed him to carry out, so he reluctantly withdrew.

It was obvious above that Qi Lei and Bei Guang were to fight alone.

But here comes the problem. At present, there is not much pressure from public opinion in China, and the factories and industries have not publicly spoken out about the topics of the seminar. The one who is afraid is CCTV.

Well now, CCTV is neutral, it has picked it up, and made it clear that this is the personal opinion of Beiguang and Qi Lei, and it does not represent Zhongchuan.

That means the above is also neutral!

that……

Who is afraid of you Bei Guang and Qi Lei?

November 11th was the third day Qi Lei came back from Hong Kong.

Boss Huayi took the lead in discussing the topic of the seminar through a well-known entertainment magazine.

It is clearly stated that the introduction of the Hong Kong film production mechanism will do all harm to the development of the domestic film market and will completely destroy the domestic film industry.

Subsequently, the director of the Beijing Film Factory also talked about a most realistic issue in public.

"Currently, there are forty self-produced film and television labels owned by the whole people in China, and among the private production organizations, there are more than two dozen."

"The [-]-odd film production organizations are still struggling with a box office of [-] million yuan. At this time, invite colleagues from Hong Kong?"

"It's not that we don't want to let them in, but that our size is too small. How can we support so many people with only a small box office?"

A well-known actor said, "Xiao Qi is always good at business, but he doesn't understand the movie market at all!"

A certain director was very straightforward, "Isn't it enough for Beiguang to improve their knowledge? It's a bit of a stretch, and things in the film industry are not that simple."

The meeting hasn't even started yet, and the discussion of public opinion has already begun.

Of course, the audience hoped that the Hong Kong circle could come in, but in front of the one-sided [opinion leaders], they had no channel to speak out at all, and became a "silenced spiral".

Gradually, even ordinary people felt that introducing Hong Kong films might not be a good thing.

The point is that the two bosses of Huayi gave another interview right after that, and they still talked about this matter.

This time, with the guidance of an expert, it hit the G-spot of ordinary people.

"Movies are the cultural microcosm of a region and a nation."

"Although Hong Kong movies are successful, after all, they have been influenced by British culture for so many years, and they can no longer represent Eastern culture. Therefore, we think that this matter should be really cautious!"

No matter at any time, it is a killer move to stir up national sentiment.

Qi Lei was amused when he saw the news, "What the hell, do they really have the face to say that?"

In later generations, no company, including Huayi, is innocent of the poor performance of mainland movies.

"Write you down in the notebook too!"

Liao Fanyi on the side was not feeling well at all, he thought to himself, do you still have time to memorize small books?

He woke up and realized that something was wrong, Dong Beiguo was tricking him.

"Stone, can this meeting be turned on and off?"

But he didn't want to, Qi Lei gave him a regretful look, "Mr. Liao, what a pity."

After finishing speaking, he leisurely went to find Chen Xingfu.

Over there, the selection for the second phase of the young eagle class has not yet ended, Qi Lei went to care about it.

Liao Fanyi was stunned, what a pity?

Just as he was thinking, Dong Beiguo called, "Come to my office!"

When Liao Fanyi heard it, it was just right to talk to Old Dong, you'd better let someone else do it, I can't!

When they arrived at the principal's office, before he could speak, Dong Beiguo took the lead.

"Don't go to the seminar, I'll deal with it myself!"

Liao Fanyi almost didn't cry, Old Dong is still a good person!Knowing how difficult it is, not letting him stand up to this thunder is to protect his subordinates!

Coming out of Dong Beiguo, Liao Fanyi also went to look for Chen Xingfu, and met Qi Lei again.
