Chapter 503: Worship the Pier
At the end of February, the superior department issued a formal document and approved the restructuring of Huaying Group.
This marked the official establishment of Huaying Group and the birth of a large national-owned enterprise.
Although everyone is prepared for it, they still don’t know how to deal with this almost monopoly competitor.
The Chinese film industry has since had a new pattern.
This is just the beginning. With the precedent of Huaying Group, in order to enhance its competitiveness, local governments will successively establish similar large enterprises, and the grouping of the film industry has become a trend.
For example, Shanghai City will establish Shanghai City Film Group.
Integrate the resources of many units such as the Shanghai City Film Studio, the Shanghai City Art Film Studio, the Shanghai City United Cinema Line and other units.
This is not good news for private film and television companies, and it means that competitors are becoming stronger and stronger.
Lin Zixuan and Feng Xiaogang attended the establishment ceremony of Huaying Group and gave flower baskets in the name of Haomeng Company.
All film and television companies in Beijing have come, this is called Bai Wharf.
In the future, Huaying Group will be the leader, and other film and television companies will only be younger brothers. If you want to stay in this circle, you must establish a good relationship with the boss and abide by the rules set by the boss.
Behind Huaying Group is the General Administration, so you can’t be disobedient.
As the third leader of Huaying Group, Han Sanping presided over the ceremony and cut the ribbon together with the leaders of the other two groups.
Facing the TV station's camera, Vice Chairman Han smiled particularly brightly.
After the ceremony, everyone chatted casually.
"Congratulations, Mr. Han." Lin Zixuan congratulated.
Huaying Group implements a modern enterprise management system and can no longer be called Director Han, but Vice Chairman Han.
"Let's stop being polite. There are many people today. I'll find time to chat in a few days. I'm so busy that I don't have time to sleep." Han Sanping responded, "Think about it, there are so many things to do. It will take one or two months to straighten out the relationship. The top will have to make achievements, which is very stressful."
Although Han Sanping used a complaining tone, he exuded an excitement. Some people are busy with it, which means they are not idle jobs.
"If you have something to do, just say it and ensure that the task is completed." Lin Zixuan said.
"Mr. Lin, I must be relieved. I will be troubled in the future." Han Sanping laughed.
There are many people who want to say hello to Han Sanping, who have established relationships and friendships, which is probably the case.
Han Sanping is responsible for the production process in Huaying Group, possessing the funds for filming, and being able to decide which company to work with, as well as coordinating the release of subsequent films.
If you have real power in your hands, you will naturally be very popular.
Lin Zixuan and Feng Xiaogang looked at Vice Chairman Han who was chatting and laughing in the crowd, feeling quite moved.
Thinking back to the beginning, Han Sanping had just been transferred to the capital. Under Zhang Guoli's introduction, everyone had a meal together.
At that time, Han Sanping was still low-key and not so strong. In just a few years, he became a leader in the domestic film industry and still has room for growth in the future.
This is an opportunity, you can achieve success if you seize it.
"Dong Han's spirit is different now, so it's better to have power." Feng Xiaogang sighed.
Lin Zixuan doesn’t envy Han Sanping. Everyone has their own path and he is not suitable for developing within the system. He is the kind of upward scheming and intrigue, and it feels tired if you think about it.
Although there is no absolute freedom in this world, it is always good to be able to live a comfortable life.
Feng Xiaogang held a wedding in Xu Fan's hometown, and lived there for half a month before returning to the capital.
The preparations for his new film should be launched as soon as possible. It is already March now, so we cannot delay the Lunar New Year holiday if we want to catch up with this year's New Year holiday.
The drama "The Funeral of Big Names" invested 30 million in the early stage and 10 million in the later stage, with a total investment of nearly 40 million.
40 million yuan was raised through advertising investment, but the manufacturer will not pay the funds in one go, but will pay in batches.
Those large groups and large enterprises are not fools. They cannot fully feel at ease with Feng Xiaogang and Ge You's signatures. They must see the actual publicity effect before they can feel at ease.
Therefore, only a deposit will be paid before the filming starts.
After the filming is completed, the remaining payment will be paid only if the implanted advertisement meets their requirements.
If Feng Xiaogang made a bad movie and the box office was too bad and the audience would not buy it, they would not only not pay the remaining money, but may also sue Haomeng Company.
These are stipulated in the contract, and the money placed in advertising is not for nothing.
Especially this time, we will cooperate with Hollywood, which is a new attempt and challenge for Feng Xiaogang.
The movie "The Funeral of Big Names" is quite different from Feng Xiaogang's early New Year's films.
The plot of the first three New Year's films is quite relaxing, and the little character played by Ge You is humorous and funny, and will arrange a perfect ending.
In addition to the Beijing-style teasing style, "The Funeral of Big Names" has added more social hot issues and controversial topics.
For example, real estate boom, entertainment hype, omnipresent commercial advertising and Internet boom, etc.
Condensing so many intricate content and fashion elements together and expressing them in an absurd form is different from the previous narrative method of pleasing the audience and deliberately pursuing a happy ending.
It is a film with black humor, where the audience can feel the spicy irony and whip.
This is a transformation, although the transformation is not very obvious.
Feng Xiaogang turned from his early ridicule to portraying reality. This shift could allow audiences in the north and south to accept his movies, thus changing the regional limitations of "heat in the north and cold in the south".
After all, if a movie wants to achieve high box office in the country, it is very important to win audiences in the south.
After leaving Huaying Group, Lin Zixuan and Feng Xiaogang talked about the new film.
"The Funeral of Big Names" requires a Hollywood actor. It is obviously unrealistic to invite a Hollywood star with the investment of the film. 30 million yuan is equivalent to four million US dollars, which is probably not enough for the star's pay.
The Hollywood actor's pay is better controlled within $300,000, which is about the same as Ge You's pay.
However, I am afraid that only the bottom-level actors in Hollywood can be found for $300,000.
This is the responsibility of Columbia Asia Film Company, and Barbara casts the film in the United States.
Barbara wanted to promote "The Funeral of Big Names" to North America, so she wanted to find an influential film actor in the United States, and after the negotiations, she would pass on the actor's information.
"I think it's better not to find any stars. It's too difficult to serve. Just find an actor with a little experience in acting to save trouble." Feng Xiaogang suggested.
This is the truth. Hollywood stars have too many requirements, so they need to stay in a five-star hotel, have plenty of rest time, etc.
Lin Zixuan wants to find the kind of Hollywood actor who was popular before and now out of date. It is best to have a certain popularity in China. (To be continued.)
