The 1996 Spring Festival Gala adopted the first time the three places were spread to each other, and two sub-venues were set up in Shanghai and Xijing. The programs in the three places could be broadcast live on TV.

The director of the Spring Festival Gala is Zhang Xiaohai who broadcasts the National Day Fireworks Gala last live.

On New Year's Eve, the family watched TV together after the New Year's Eve dinner, waiting for the Spring Festival Gala to be broadcast.

Mu Zhiyuan and Lin Boqing like to read Chinese news, which is a common habit among people working in the agency and are concerned about national affairs.

Lin Xiaoling was calling her friend and made an appointment to go to the temple fair together tomorrow, including Xu Jinglei. Because of her graduation work, the two had a good relationship.

"Brother, the box office of that Xiangjiang movie has exceeded 50 million." Lin Xiaoling suddenly said after putting down the phone.

"What's wrong?" Lin Zixuan said in confusion.

For the imported blockbusters, this box office is normal.

Where is the production cost of others? They spend so much money to shoot big scenes, and the actors are fighting for their lives. The plot is thrilling, so the audience is naturally willing to go to the theater to watch.

"I just don't feel very comfortable. No one can watch the movies we filmed by ourselves, so why are we filming them?" Lin Xiaoling said depressedly, "I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the cinema by that time."

Since becoming a director, Lin Xiaoling has begun to care about the box office of domestic movies.

"You only know that unless a small-cost movie of 300,000 yuan won awards at the film festival, no theater chain is willing to release it, and the theaters will also make money." Lin Zixuan explained.

"The reality is too cruel, and I dare not graduate." Lin Xiaoling lamented.

"Xiaoling will take the master's degree exam, and she will have a great chance of staying at school to teach after graduating from the master's degree." Mu Shanshan said with an idea.

Although she is a little busy, Mu Shanshan is still insisting on taking the master's degree program in the Director Department of Beijing Broadcasting College and will be able to graduate this year. It's not all for the graduation certificate, but she can really learn something.

Society is developing, and knowledge is being updated faster and faster, and if you don’t study, you will fall behind.

Lin Boqing and Zheng Xiulian thought this idea was good, and girls were safe to teach and didn’t have to run around.

"Forget it, I'm not a teaching material at all, I still like to shoot movies." Lin Xiaoling insisted, "At worst, I can support myself when I go to shoot TV series."

"You don't have to be so pessimistic. The domestic film market has not been very good in recent years. It will be great if you survive this period." Lin Zixuan analyzed, "When people's lives are better and they have money, they will pursue high-quality entertainment activities, and the film industry can develop."

"Xiaoxuan's words make sense. The country will not let the entire film industry suffer losses all the time. It will definitely introduce corresponding protection policies in the future. As long as you can make good movies that the people like, you will not worry about the lack of a market." Mu Zhiyuan agreed.

Mu Zhiyuan's words ended this small discussion, and it felt like the leader was summarizing the meeting.

Compared with Lin Xiaoling's complaints, Jia Zhangke's situation is even more unbearable.

The filming of Jia Zhangke's "Going Home to the Hill" is not complicated. Their students finished filming in less than 20 days, and after the filming, they still have to be produced.

He cuts a short film every day in the editing room of Haomeng Company and cuts out a 50-minute short film.

Lin Zixuan looked at it and it was very personal.

How to say it, there are shadows of various media in society, such as radio, newspapers, television, advertising, etc. The editing technique is a bit like a TV news program.

According to Jia Zhangke, he wants to reflect the influence of the media on people and the living conditions of people.

We live in the media every day, surrounded by various information, and increasingly lack independent thinking and face-to-face communication. The media has changed people's way of thinking and life.

To be honest, Lin Zixuan doesn’t quite understand this way of editing. After all, he is not a movie, so he is not easy to comment.

Jia Zhangke was a little overwhelmed after cutting the short film. For a movie, this only half of the work is done. How to get the movie into the circulation field and let the audience see that it is the other half of the work.

Underground films like this can't enter the theater at all, and they can't make them into videotapes and sell them privately. That's illegal.

He thought about it and was about to organize a movie meeting in the film academy, so he posted a piece of paper on the publicity board at the entrance of the canteen.

With a line of words written on it, the Youth Experimental Film Group of the Beijing Film Academy completed the short film "Going Home to the Hill", which will be held at 8 pm today in the 618 dormitory.

Jia Zhangke lives in dormitory 618, with four people in one room, and the area is very small.

The publicity column at the entrance of the cafeteria was effective. At night, nearly thirty people came to Jia Zhangke's dormitory. It was dense and very crowded, and everyone was very enthusiastic.

However, after fifteen minutes of play, the first group of people were gone, and halfway through the broadcast, they were basically finished.

Only Jia Zhangke and his deputy director were left in the dormitory. The deputy director just entered the film school this year and was only eighteen years old. He took the video tape out of the video recorder, threw it into the drawer, and locked it.

He said something that hurts Jia Zhangke: Jia Zhangke, don’t take it out again and show your shame.

However, Jia Zhangke did not give up. He felt that the requirements of being a student in the film school were too high, and perhaps those who did not study film could accept it. So he and a group of people began to contact other universities in Beijing.

Including Renmin University, Agricultural University, Peking University, Academy of Fine Arts, etc.

There are various student groups in the university, and there is a photography team at Beijing University who is willing to watch Jia Zhangke's films. They organized hundreds of students to watch "Going Home on the Hill" through a projector in the staircase classroom.

Students from Peking University think it’s good. They don’t watch movies, but they care more about the content reflected, such as the domestic economy and the problems of migrant workers.

Jia Zhangke felt that no matter what, it would be worth being happy that someone would agree with the film he made.

Lin Zixuan suggested that he attend film festivals. Many film festivals have short film units, and maybe they will gain something. There is an independent short film and videotape competition in Xiangjiang, and you can send the videotapes to try.

This year's Spring Festival Gala is mostly old-fashioned. No one will watch it after ten o'clock, so everyone will have a rest.

Lin Xiaoling has a early rest in order to have fun tomorrow. Anyway, the Spring Festival Gala will be replayed, so there is no need to persist so late.

Lin Zixuan turned off the TV in the living room and returned to the bedroom. Mu Shanshan was coaxing the child to sleep. Perhaps because there were more people at home today, the child was very excited and refused to sleep.

Compared with previous years, his biggest gain this year is his extra daughter.

"You'd better come on, Xiaoxue doesn't want to sleep." Mu Shanshan said helplessly.

"Okay, I'll tell Xiaoxue a new story." Lin Zixuan came to his daughter and whispered, "In the distant West, there is a magical world. If you want to enter that mysterious world, you have to wait for the train at the nine and three-quarters of the station at a railway station, where there is a train to the Magic Academy..."
