Entertainment since 1999

At 8:00 in the evening, the staff notified to prepare for boarding.

The destination is Kherson Province, Ukraine.

Kherson Province is the old name of the Russian Empire, roughly located in the Kilo region of southwestern Ukraine.

One side supports the other side, the Ukrainian girl is delicate, delicate, with a slender figure and fair skin.

The natural scenery is also beautiful and illusory, just like the ancient oil paintings of Eastern Europe.

"House of Flying Daggers" features a sea of ​​flowers, silvery birch forests, and colorful hills.

All shot in Ukraine.

"Han Qiao, sit with me later." Zhang Yimou had a black peaked cap, a black wallet, and a serious face with gentleness: "I have something to do, and I want to talk to you."

"No problem." Han Qiao agreed straight away, "I happen to have something to talk to Brother Zhang about."

Han Qiao had been hanging out with Lao Mouzi for a long time, and he figured out that Zhang Yimou was serious and traditional, but not old-fashioned.

In general, a moral little old man.

He put away his camera and put his hands in his pockets.

Yang Tianzhen carried the handbag on his shoulder bitterly, and the life assistant did the job.

Han Qiao thought for a while, after all, he was a proletarian and couldn't do what Huang Shiren did, so he casually took the suitcase from Yang Tianzhen's shoulder.

"hypocritical."

Zhang Ziyi's toad mirror covered her palm-sized delicate face and swaggered. Han Qiao did this, showing that she was not considerate of the assistant, and the corner of her mouth curled down: "Little Lingling, give me the makeup box."

"Sister Ziyi, no need." Ji Lingling was taken aback, Zhang Ziyi was slender, not to mention the makeup case, several clothes were worried that the waist would be broken, and said with a smile: "Thank you, sister Ziyi, I can do it."

"It's okay." Zhang Ziyi said involuntarily, "I can do it."

At this time.

The phone buzzed, Zhang Ziyi saw the note on the screen, his face was cold, and he hung up mercilessly.

His face became visibly colder.

Without any entanglement in the mood, he passed the Han Bridge blankly, keeping strangers away.

"Little Linger, what happened to her?"

Xiao Ling'er is Ji Lingling, Zhang Ziyi's life assistant, a girl from Treasure Island who grew up in the United States, petite, sweet-talking, looking at Han Qiao with big eyes, and said in a weak voice, "Brother Han, don't betray me!" ah."

"Little Linger, you don't believe Brother Han?" Han Qiao said while taking the suitcase from Ji Lingling's hand.

"Hey, no." Ji Lingling has a good impression of Han Qiao, mainly because Han Qiao is too handsome, and he doesn't have any big star spectrum, the feeling of the brother next door, looking at Zhang Ziyi's back, gossiping: " Brother Han, it's not Huo Qisan, sister Ziyi broke up with him before."

"It was good to get together and get away, but in the end, about half a month ago, Huo Qisan pestered Sister Ziyi again for some reason."

"It started as occasional text messages."

"Now."

Ji Lingling looked contemptuous, and complained: "I call almost every day, it's too unreasonable."

"That's it." Han Qiao was thinking about Huo Qisan's status, and he couldn't do such a shitty thing as dog licking and entanglement.

to the cabin.

Han Qiao was a little surprised to find Zhang Yimou.

The seats were obviously arranged by the staff in private, and his and Zhang Yimou's seats were in the middle.

Both security and privacy are the best.

"Brother Zhang." Han Qiao sat down, smelling the sauce aroma of liquor, and joked, "Brother Zhang is so elegant."

"Here we come." Zhang Yimou placed a plate of shredded beef jerky, a bottle of white wine, and two small wine glasses in front of Zhang Yimou, and poured a glass for Han Qiao.

"Han Qiao, you've worked hard for me this month." Zhang Yimou said with a serious face and a smile, "Have a few drinks with Brother Zhang."

"it is good."

Zhang Yimou has something to do.

The two touched the glasses.

Han Qiao took a sip, a fire suddenly rushed up in his throat, and his face was red with choking.

After a while, he spit out from his throat: "Good wine."

"This is an authentic Northwest knife." Zhang Yimou smiled triumphantly, and pushed the beef jerky to Han Qiao: "During war, just take this one bite, and you won't be afraid of death."

Han Qiao chewed on the beef jerky and smiled wryly: "Brother Zhang, I'm only making movies, so you're going to send me to my death."

"What I told you is harder than death."

Zhang Yimou looked serious.

This month, he has been observing Han Qiao all the time. The more he understands, the more he appreciates Han Qiao.

Young, talented.

It's not scary.

The terrible thing is that there is still perseverance, not afraid of hardship.

"House of Flying Daggers" has very exciting martial arts scenes, and he was afraid that Han Qiao would not be able to chew on this tough bone.

Han Qiao told him with practical actions that martial arts scenes are difficult, but they can't stop him.

Get up on time at 6:00 in the morning to practice swordsmanship, and pester Cheng Xiaodong for advice on swordsmanship at night.

Cheng Xiaodong complained privately several times: "Han Qiao is a great director anyway, why is he so thick-skinned, I won't tell you, and I won't let me go to the toilet safely."

cheeky.

Don't underestimate the thick face, if you want to succeed, you must have a thick face.

The skill is honed by others for ten years, through the frost sword and snow sword, and shed countless blood and sweat. Why do you say you want to learn it so easily, and pass it on to you for no reason.

Naive.

At this moment.

You have to be thick-faced, if you don't teach me, I'll chase after you, be polite, and don't reach out to hit the smiling face.

You bother me, and I don't bother.

Steal a little today, steal a little tomorrow, and that's how you can steal.

Whether it is Han Qiao's thick face, or the spirit of special research, or talent.

Zhang Yimou is considered to be the most outstanding young director.

Most importantly, Hanqiao has capital.

What the director is most afraid of is not having money.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yimou looked at Han Qiao. In the entire director industry, Han Qiao was not as bold as Han Qiao.

He took a sip of his wine and let out a breath of alcohol: "Han Qiao, you are a capable person. I dare say that our generation, or your generation, has no qualifications to be better than you."

"Such a good platform." Zhang Yimou sighed: "It can't be wasted."

"In the past ten years, I have traveled all over the major film festivals. If I see too many, people will become silent."

"Our Chinese movie."

Zhang Yimou drank all the wine in one gulp, shaking his head, with a sad face: "It's too far, too far, too far away."

Three is too far.

Han Qiao understood very well.

Movies are like climbing a mountain. Lao Mouzi can be said to be a person on the top of the mountain, but he looks far away.

Own this mountain top.

It's just halfway up the mountain from others.

Mountain after mountain.

in fact.

And why is there only movies, China is poor and white, with countless technical barriers and cultural desert.

For so many years, we have also faced up to the difficulties, caught up with the Premier League and the United States, overcome countless difficulties, and stood on the top of the mountain.

But only movies.

That's a prodigal son who eats, drinks, prostitutes and gambles, and ruins all his family property.

"Brother Zhang, I understand what you're saying." Han Qiao sipped his wine and said, "Huaxia movies are too difficult now."

"The industrialization of Hollywood films is at least 20 years older than ours."

"Let's not mention the major film festivals, our Huaxia lags behind in technology, talent, philosophy, market, and reputation!"

"If you fall behind, you will be beaten."

"I can't keep my own one-acre three-point land."

There is a consensus in the film circle that if you want to get a good box office, you should avoid foreign films.

Why?

It's very simple, but you can't beat it!

Foreign movies are like tigers in the mountains, and everyone is afraid of them, while Chinese movies are like little white rabbits, who can only run away with their heads hugged.

This situation improved slightly in 2012.

but.

It is still difficult to escape the fact that foreign films are popular, and the dignified China can't release a film a year, and it is overseas.

Sad, deplorable, pathetic.

but.

Han Qiao had no choice.

Film is an industry, and it cannot be revitalized by making a few films by one person.

This is an entire industry, directors, screenwriters, lighting, photography, actors, distribution, marketing, film awards...

China's problem is that its roots are rotten. After the capital enters the market, let alone the roots, the mud that took root is rotten.

If you want to save.

I have to dig out all the mud, and use an ax to chop off the rot...

This is the enemy of the entire vested interest.

Take your life!

If you are poor, you will be alone. With his current reputation and status, this hell is difficult, so he will not join in the fun.

Make some money and throw some girlfriends on a cruise.

Cozy and at ease.

Zhang Yimou moved his lips, and his voice was extremely serious: "Han Qiao, you are very talented. What I want to say is that you can lead Huaxia Film to a new peak."

"Damn it." Han Qiao put down his wine glass: "Brother Zhang, you think highly of me, I can't handle such a big thing with my small body."

Han Qiao is determined to change the entertainment industry.

but.

That's a smooth change when you make money yourself.

The old Mouzi wanted him to make a big move, take up the ax and chop it up to pieces, and then rebuild the world.

The offender is small.

This is so tiring.

"Han Qiao, in the entire circle of directors, only you have this ability."

Han Qiao swears.

Zhang Yimou was not annoyed, and continued pouring wine: "Your talent, you can master all the director's styles, you have the capital, Pangu Film and Television is one of the largest companies in the industry."

"The most important thing is that you have people."

"Xia Wen's relationship with that girl, not to mention the industry, but the whole of China, is also first-rate."

"Someone, rich, capable!"

Zhang Yimou said seriously, "Han Qiao, if you don't stand up for this matter, no one else can do it."

Directors of the fifth generation all have pursuits.

Brother Chen Kai seeks fame, Tian Zhuangzhuang seeks reputation, and old man seeks change.

Throughout his films, there are always challenges, whether it is new technologies or new ideas.

of course.

Not counting the red ones, everyone is over 70, and the heart has long been defeated.

Such a toss.

It's hard to say that there is no purpose to revitalize Chinese films. After all, they went overseas in the 90s.

He is not as narrow and closed as domestic filmmakers, and he has seen a lot of new technologies.

The appearance of Han Qiao gave Zhang Yimou hope.

His style, the entire film industry, no one can steal from him, Han Qiao was born with it.

Since Han Qiao can steal foreign technology from him, it is not a small problem.

Steal the technology.

Landing is another problem.

If it is Hanqiao, the problem is not a problem.

Zhang Yimou pondered, maybe ten years, maybe twenty years, the atmosphere of movies might change.

At that time.

Everyone is on the same starting line, and the Huaxia people will not lose to anyone.

"Brother Zhang, I didn't even think I was so important." Han Qiao picked up his glass and touched it. At this moment, he made a decision.

Fudge.

simply say.

It is to agree first, and then ask for benefits. Whether it can be done at that time, it is beyond his control.

Zhang Yimou's status is undoubtedly a gold-lettered signboard in Chinese-language movies.

Taking a sip of his wine, Han Qiao looked embarrassed: "Brother Zhang, you also know that as far as I am now, Director Chen has a lot of opinions on me. If the next movie fails..."

When Zhang Yimou saw Han Qiao let go, he immediately said, "Old Chen, he has a bit of a temper and a good heart. The movie is easy to talk about. Show me the script."

"I am the art director of this movie. I believe that if you and I work together, Lao Chen will not be afraid."

Zhang Yimou was still modest.

He is worthy of old Chen, let alone Han Qiao.

Han Qiao's brows became even more worried: "Brother Zhang, you also know that I am not well-known abroad now, if the movie Xiuchundao can be released overseas..."

"Brother Zhang, don't talk about it." Han Qiao held the wine glass, with a troubled expression on his face: "Brother Zhang will help me a lot if he agrees to be the art director."

"I want to ask Brother Zhang again, because I, Xiao Han, am not sensible."

Zhang Yimou didn't realize it, and held the wine glass, touched it, burned the knife in a mouthful: "Well, I can ask Miramax about the overseas copyright of Xiuchun Knife."

Miramax is one of the most important independent film companies in Hollywood. It was acquired by Walt Disney in 1993 and is responsible for the overseas copyright of "Hero" and the distribution of video products.

Internationally, Zhang Yimou can be said to be the number one film director in the Mainland.

Miramax may not necessarily buy the movies he recommends, but he will definitely pay attention to them.

otherwise.

Han Qiao's prestige, the movie wants to go overseas, who cares!

The standard templates for overseas campaigns are almost all for winning awards and shaping a golden body.

Han Qiao disliked him for being too slow.

"Brother Zhang, you also know that I don't have any awards yet." Han Qiao was a little presumptuous: "I heard that the Hundred Flowers Award, Brother Zhang..."

"Stop talking, stop talking." Han Qiao was even more difficult: "Brother Zhang, stop talking and drink."

Zhang Yimou recalled it, and smiled wryly with a serious face: "The Hundred Flowers Award is an authoritative movie award, what you said, how did it become the Pheasant Award..."

Paused.

The words were grounded: "Recently, the Hundred Flowers Awards have been restructured, and the selection is biased towards the box office. Your unknown generation has a good box office, um."

"Very promising, very promising."

"Brother Zhang, you are really my own brother."

The Hundred Flowers Award is an authoritative award, but the jury is also human, and human beings live in the cobweb of human affection.

Zhang Yimou still has this kind of connections.

in fact.

Not to mention the Hundred Flowers Awards, foreign film awards, before the awards, news of public relations and bribery of the jury by major film companies is not uncommon.

The burning knife bottomed out quickly.

Zhang Yimou's drinking capacity was far worse than that of Lao Gu. Thinking of Lao Gu, Han Qiao thought of his hot sister Jiang Wenli that night.

The Peacock movie has been in production for some time.

Estimating the time, Lao Gu and Zhang Jingchu were going to read the script in the car.

Ukraine is an Eastern European country.

The plane left the border, and it was pitch black outside the window, but the surrounding area was not dark.

Starry.

Han Qiao thought about what Lao Mouzi said again.

If you want to change the general environment of movies, you must first change the current structure of the movie industry.

Hollywood is fine with that.

Actors union, screenwriters union, cinematographers union...

To promote the establishment of trade unions, there is no trade union in Huaxia, and to promote the establishment of associations, this matter requires him to have an extraordinary status.

and.

There are also phased results.

Han Qiao thought for a long time before taking out his notebook.

2010, Avatar.

The movie Avatar can be said to have pierced the veil of false prosperity of domestic movies. It is unexpected in China that the special effects and concepts of foreign movies can be so advanced!
It is not comparable to the so-called "blockbuster" in China.

in case.

In 2010, when Avatar was released, Han Qiao was able to release the Chinese-language film's own blockbuster "The Wandering Earth".

Then.

There is no doubt that he is the god of domestic movies!

The savior is always the coquettish debut, surprising everyone.

"The Wandering Earth" is a blockbuster with special effects. The difficulty of special effects in the first film is actually not difficult, at least, it is not as difficult as "Avatar".

Han Qiao picked up his pen and wrote down "Special Effects Company".

Now China's special effects are in a mess, almost like Xiangjiang and Baodao, and there are too few special effects companies in the mainland.

and.

too backward.

Han Qiao wrote down again: "Overseas."

half an hour.

Han Qiao looked at the text on the notebook that only he could understand, and his whole brain was unprecedentedly clear.

First: Cultivate fame, fame is a natural umbrella.

This step starts with defeating Brother Chen Kai's "The Promise".

Second: The prototype of the industry trade union is established within the company, and the screenwriter, director, and process-based output results will naturally be noticed by the higher-ups.

Third: Acquisition of foreign special effects companies.

The muffled voice is the big one.

PS: The previous chapter has been revised, you can take a look.

Decided, as long as it is not sealed, it will be sealed.
