China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

【Modified】

...

"That's a good thing."

Jin Liang's voice was full of surprise, and he looked at Guan Ling, "Director Guan, do you mean to hold a film festival comparable to the Shanghai International Film Festival?"

He subconsciously compared himself with the Magic City.

Generally speaking, when talking about the three major Chinese film awards, the Golden Rooster Awards, the Hong Kong Film Awards and the Golden Horse Awards are generally referred to as the three major Chinese-language film awards.

In mainland China, the Hundred Flowers Awards, Huabiao Awards and Golden Rooster Awards are known as the three major Chinese film awards.

The Huabiao Awards were established by cultural departments and the highest levels of the film industry.

There is no need to compare with film festivals like the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers, because the Chinese Film Association is behind them.

Jin Liang had naturally heard about the fight between Guan Ling and them before.

Among the international film festivals named after cities in China, the Shanghai International Film Festival can indeed be regarded as the number one in the country.

It enjoys a high reputation all over the world.

Although it was once criticized by the Tokyo Film Festival in Japan, it has finally gotten some relief in the past two years.

Although it is still not as good as the others, due to Guan Ling's improved global status, the Shanghai International Film Festival has indeed begun to exude vitality.

The Beijing International Film Festival was founded in 2011. This kind of city-level film festival is basically co-organized by the Film Bureau, China Media Group and local governments.

Changchun has a national film festival that only focuses on Chinese-language films from around the world and almost never involves foreign films.

Therefore, if a film festival is really established in Qingdao now, it will be of great significance to the development of Shandong Province’s radio and television stations, tourism, global status and fame, and even the film and television industry.

As long as Shandong Province and QD City work together to vigorously develop art with the help of this international film festival, film and television bases and film and television schools will be given some resources.

The shortcomings of Shandong Province's weakest link have been made up.

The International Film Festival has a profound significance for the city’s economic development, tourism, catering, accommodation, image, popularity, cultural exchange and integration, film industry development, citizens’ cultural life, cultural literacy and other aspects.

So how could Lu Peng and Jin Liang not be excited?
The chairman of Shanying Group was so excited at this moment that he could not contain himself.

"Director Guan wants to build the Lu circle into the open."

Lu Peng took a sip of tea, looked at Guan Ling and said with a smile,

"We, Shanying, will definitely be the most solid support for Director Guan. I can't say anything else, but we have always been quite capable in television. If Director Guan needs talents in the film industry, we will hold a meeting to study the policy when we return."

Guan Ling stared into his eyes, "One mountain shadow is not enough."

"The one who has the final say in the publicity of Nalu Province, leave this to me. I guarantee he will come to see you."

Lu Peng gave a thumbs up, suggesting something.

"Mr. Lu, you are too kind. I am just a small director."

"You are not some small director, you are a big client attracting investment."

Lv Peng smiled and said, "If you host the film festival, Shandong Province will at most provide policy and geographical support. However, because of this incident, various future investments, including but not limited to film and television schools and film and television bases, will surely spring up like mushrooms after rain."

He coughed twice and thanked Guan Ling from the bottom of his heart.

"For the sake of Shandong Province, I have to thank you. As the director of Shandong Province's TV station, I know that Shandong Province has been looked down upon by others over the years, even by its own people. They always think that their TV station is rustic and rotten. Apart from Stanley, there are Red Cross lucky dolls, apart from Xiao Mo Ge, there are Xiao Xi's clerks. Or maybe I am really a big star, and I get a group of people to come up and make funny remarks, which is completely different from the TV stations in the south.

We always want to change, but you know, for people like us, stability and continued stability are the most important.

If you take the trouble to change it,
Even if it is changed, there will be no personal improvement.

If you make a mistake in changing it, you might have to take responsibility.

So everyone has been following the rules and restraining themselves.

But as long as relevant professionals like directors raise their hands to call for it, I will definitely put all my chips on it.

Because I trust you beyond words."

Lu Peng was indeed excited. This official revealed so much from his heart that Guan Ling felt embarrassed to listen.

"After this film festival, the pressure will be huge. Not only do I have to bear the pressure, but you may also need to bear the pressure." Guan Ling's fingers tapped on the wall of the teacup.

Holding a film festival is a very complex systematic project, which not only requires cultural accumulation and industrial foundation, but may also face resistance from many aspects, including challenges in internal resources and positioning, as well as pressure from external competition and industry ecology.

Financial investment is the smallest thing.

Because Guan Ling’s money is definitely enough, and the local government will also provide subsidies.

The shortcomings in film talent and technology, the lack of support from mature film and television bases and industrial chains, the pressure of national film positioning and differentiated competition, the lack of homogeneity and brand recognition, and the difficulty in establishing recognition.

The competition for resources from other domestic film festivals and the competition for premiere rights requires sufficient exposure or commercial returns.

Previously, the Shanghai Film Festival and the Beijing Film Festival had a box office war.

On the surface, they are complementary, but in reality, they are all business.

If Shandong Province wants to hold one on its own, it will most likely be crushed by the two major film festivals at the very beginning.

But there is a Guan Ling in Lu Province, so it is still unknown who will win or lose.

"That's fine. If you can bear it, bear it. If you can't bear it, bear it."

Lu Peng made up his mind carelessly.

He knew very well that the opportunity must be seized.

"I can't say anything else, but you have to believe in our determination. Otherwise, after being scolded for so many years, the station's policy would have changed long ago."

Guan Ling smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble Director Lu."

"We should thank Director Guan."

At this point, things have been basically settled.

"What about the variety show?"

"Boss Lu has said so much. If I don't give it to Lu Province, wouldn't it seem like I am being unfair to my fellow countrymen?"

Guan Ling smiled and said, "For the welfare of the people of Shandong Province, I don't mind. Even if someone else offers a higher price than us, I can still give it to Shandong Province."

"Thank you, Director Guan."

Lu Peng and Jin Liang stood up one after another and clasped their hands together with Guan Ling.

Hold on tightly.

"When you go back, you must confirm and push for the film festival. I'll help you with the relevant connections and resources."

Guan Ling said to the two of them, his eyes narrowed slightly.

……

2012 12 Month 30 Day.

No one expected that among the news about the Lunar New Year movies, the first director to become a hot topic in the news was actually related to Lu Chuan.

The movies involved are "1942" and "The Banquet".

Because both movies were ruined.

Basically, the box office was very bad.

So the beginning was quite dull and did not trigger much discussion.

It can be said that this is a relatively calm start to the box office during the Lunar New Year period, which is very interesting.

And it continued into the next painting.

As a result, "1942" was the first to be taken off the screen and has just been taken off the screen.

Because of a word from someone related to "The Banquet", the two movies turned the war that had nothing to do with them into a white-hot dramatic scene.

Lu Chuan's publicity staff claimed that in December 2012, when "12" was first released, it received low reviews from "Black Waters";
The publicist publicly admitted that he had used internet trolls to maintain his reputation and insult various competitors. He also expressed through Weibo that he did so out of helplessness and pointed the finger at Lu Chuan.

The news caused a huge stir and sparked heated discussions both inside and outside the industry.

The next day, the relevant personnel continued to update their Weibo, and the story instantly became a raging fire.
The staff claimed that due to personal impulse, the film and director, who were already at the center of controversy, were caused more trouble, and stated that "The Banquet" had stopped cooperating with the network maintenance team.

Feng Xiaogang realized it later and decided to beat Lu Chuan to death for the sake of his own reputation.

The company's staff quickly posted screenshots of suspected "online black water" collected in recent days, and expressed the hope of "hearing more opinions from the audience."

He also claimed that the reason why there was such a huge box office gap in the movie was purely due to the evil people and villains.

Just put all the responsibility on hold.

Things have already happened, and Lu Chuan can only respond hastily.

He denied it at first, but then he kept on being stubborn.

As a result, the person who was exposed continued to be hammered and was beaten to death.

He once again activated the shameless function of pretending to be dead. This was the second time Lu Chuan had pretended to be dead in just half a year.

The news caused a huge earthquake in the entertainment industry.

Later, there were reports that both "Extreme Job" and "Lost in Thailand" had suffered unexpected disasters.

Faced with these online opinions, Guan Ling did not comment at all.

At this point, Lu Chuan's reputation was ruined.

If anyone asks him to make a movie again, they must be crazy.

But without this joke, Guan Ling felt that his future life would be a little boring.

When faced with the interview, Guan Ling also kept silent about this matter.

The best kind of contempt is disregard.

When Lu Chuan was watching the news at home and saw Guan Ling's contempt for the matter as if it had nothing to do with him, he completely collapsed.

Thinking of Qin Lan and Jiang Yiyan who were gradually leaving him, Lu Chuan knelt on the ground and burst into tears.

He didn't know why things had come to this point.

But he felt he was wronged.

The joints of his fists turned white from clenching them, and the hatred in Lu Chuan's heart turned into an ocean.

...

The night was dark.

Beijing.

Liu Yifei's villa.

It's winter and the heating has started, so the temperature in the big villa is still relatively warm.

Guan Ling lay in front of Liu Yifei's belly, listening to the movements inside.

"It's not even big, what can you hear?"

Liu Yifei touched her belly.

The strange thing in her stomach did make Liu Yifei a little nervous.

But when Liu Yifei saw Guan Ling's miserable appearance, she couldn't help laughing.

"Do you think the baby can hear us talking?"

"No ears."

"So what they said about letting children listen to music and doing prenatal education is false?"

"That will be five or six months later."

"Actually, you can listen to it now. I can do that, too."

Guan Ling looked at Liu Yifei. In fact, Guan Ling also had a strange emotion in his heart at this moment.

In his past and present lives, this was the first time that Guan Ling felt like a father.

Although I had interactions with many small celebrities in my previous life.

But no one was hit.

Naturally, no one would give birth to her.

Now he is a father, and someone gave birth to a child for him, and it was Liu Yifei.

I have never had this kind of dream in my previous life.

But it really happened in this life.

Everything has changed.

In her previous life, Liu Yifei didn't have her own baby until she was 40 years old.

This is also the first time that Liu Yifei has become a mother in her life.

So, I still got Liu Yifei's first kill in two lifetimes?

Guan Ling thought to himself, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"It's said on the internet that you're going to be doing a variety show soon?"

"There aren't that many plays, and we have to make sure the actors we sign up have something to eat."

Guan Ling smiled.

"These people are willing to play supporting roles for you, but if they don't play supporting roles for you and let them play supporting roles for each other, I don't like it. People are just too ambitious."

"That's true. You don't have the energy to let them all be the protagonists."

Liu Yifei smiled and said, "Except me."

Guan Ling said, "Of course. I'll let you act whenever you want to film in the future."

"Can I play a pregnant mother?"

Liu Yifei raised her eyelids and said, "It might be very interesting for me to challenge this role."

"Are you crazy?"

Guan Ling scratched Liu Yifei's nose and said, "Aren't you afraid of your fans coming after me?"

"If you come after me, you can't be my fan!"

Liu Yifei was furious. "You are my person, and they are just a small group of my fans. I can still tell which is more important."

"So, are you going to officially announce your pregnancy?"

Guan Ling smiled.

After asking this, Liu Yifei herself hesitated.

"No. And I'm a little afraid of pain."

"It's okay. I will raise you to be plump and healthy, and give you the best care and doctors. I will come back often to be with you." Guan Ling touched Liu Yifei's face.

"You're accompanying him, right?" Liu Yifei pretended to be jealous. "I've never been treated this way before."

Guan Ling didn't answer, but just looked at Liu Yifei's face with a giggle.

Liu Yifei is indeed very beautiful.

The beauty is beyond compare.

Every inch of his face seemed to be an art that could not be created by carving.

"About marriage?" Liu Yifei said, "My mother asked again."

"Marriage is nothing more than a secret marriage." Guan Ling said, "Besides, I'm a little afraid of getting married. Most importantly, there are some things I can't affect you for the time being."

As we chatted, this inevitable topic was extended.

"What do you mean?" Liu Yifei asked, "Why does it affect me?"

"I'm going to host an international film festival in Qingdao soon."

Guan Ling said, "We have to have a big fight with the capital and the devil."

"You want to pursue fairness and justice?"

Liu Yifei was not quite sure about Guan Ling's purpose.

“I just want to have my own platform to speak out.”

Guan Ling said, "Some people in the industry say that I am the godfather of Chinese entertainment. I know that I am very young and may not deserve this title.

I don't necessarily want this title.

But what if they stand in front of us, blocking our way forward?

Some people who deserve awards don’t get them, some people who deserve rewards don’t get them, and some people’s enthusiasm is greatly affected, and the harm caused is really terrible.”

Liu Yifei nodded.

I seem to understand but not understand.

"So, I want to make a clear connection with those old bastards.

We need to get these old bastards to move out of their way."

Guan Ling narrowed his eyes. (End of this chapter)
