China Entertainment Times

Chapter 45 Celebration Party

On November 11st, in order to celebrate the box office of "Shark Beach" breaking 1 million, China Film Group specially held a celebration banquet at the Lishe Shichahai Hotel near Desheng Bridge near China Film Group.

This time, Han Sanping, vice chairman of China Film Group, and Wang Jianyuan, director of the distribution department, were present in person, and Chen Guofu, production director of Columbia Asia, also rushed over.

In the five-star hotel, Tang An walked in wearing that handmade suit, followed by Yang Mi and Xu Manyun.

As soon as he entered the door, Lin Sheng greeted him, "Director Tang is here, come with me, Director Han is waiting for you!"

"Han Dong?"

"Han" Tang An almost called Han Sanping by his name.

"That's right, go in quickly, the director and Mr. Chen from Columbia are also here!" Lin Sheng led them in after speaking.

"Director Han, Director, President Chen, this is Director Tang An and Tang!" Lin Sheng introduced them.

"Hello Director Han, Hello Mr. Wang, Hello Mr. Chen!" Tang An smiled slightly and greeted them.

These are the top existences in the entertainment circle. In his previous life, even if he wanted to meet them, it was not easy for him, let alone being able to talk to them.

Needless to say, Han Sanping is a leader in the entertainment industry, nicknamed the Mountain Eagle!

Wang Jianyuan, as the director of the distribution department of China Film Group, can be regarded as the top five powerful figures in the entire group. The power of life and death of hundreds of films at home and abroad is in his hands.

Even Han Sanping, who is currently in charge of distribution and production, cannot fully control the distribution department now.

Chen Guofu is also a big cow, but his main contacts are in Taiwan and overseas. Back then, he co-founded a film company with Hou Xiaoxian and Yang Decang, two big names in Taiwan's film and television industry.

The Chinese New Year blockbuster "A World Without Thieves" that Huayi is currently filming is supervised by Chen Guofu. Milk tea has just won the role of the first female lead, and squeezed Li Binbin from Huayi's subsidiary to the second female lead.

Of course, the main reason is that Hua Yi took a fancy to the influence of Milk Tea's family in Taiwan, and wanted to open up the Taiwan film market.

The result undoubtedly disappointed Huayi. In the end, he only got 2.4 yuan in Baodao, which was not enough money for copying.

There have always been only two types of movies that can be sold in Baodao, either Hollywood blockbusters with special effects, or small and fresh movies, or even the films of Zhou Xingchi and Cheng Long, which have been selling well in Baodao since the 90s.

The unattainable existence in the past, now I can talk to them calmly.

Although it is still far from a level, it is still a huge improvement.

As expected, for a director, the box office is the most effective, because a high box office has everything.

"Director Tang is young and promising. You can make such excellent movies at such an age. You will have a place in the top domestic directors in the future!" Han Sanping did not hesitate to praise himself.

"Han Dong, you are overrated, I still need to improve!" Tang An said modestly.

"Haha, Director Xiao Tang, you have brought a surprise to our distribution department this time. The box office in the mainland is 3000 million, and there are only a few films released throughout the year. This year's assessment of Lin Sheng's group can be regarded as a success!" Wang Jianyuan haha laughed.

"Thanks to Director Han and the director's leadership, I was able to discover Director Tang's good film!" Lin Sheng said hastily.

"It's Lin Ge's discerning eye!" Tang An said with a smile.

They are also considered to be people with half a physique, and they have to praise people first when they speak!
Wang Jianyuan said to Chen Guofu again, "By the way, Director Chen, have you sold your overseas copyright?"

"Haha, if you don't sell it, David will be in a hurry. The European rights were packaged and sold to Europa Company for 180 million yuan. The Asian rights were sold to Japan's Toei Company for 60 yuan! "Chen Guofu said with a smile, obviously in a good mood.

Bought for 140 million and sold for 240 million, and the North American copyright is still in hand. As long as this kind of thriller and suspense film is of high quality, it can recover a lot of costs after long-term screenings and video tape sales.

This is at least twice the investment ratio!

"Mr. Chen made a good deal this time!" Wang Jianyuan exclaimed.

While talking, the few people looked at Tang An's expression secretly, seeing that his expression remained unchanged and did not show any strange emotions, they couldn't help but secretly nodded in their hearts.

"By the way, Director Tang, do you have any plans for the next film?" Wang Jianyuan asked again.

"I probably have an idea in my heart, but the script hasn't been written yet!" Tang An said with a smile. He is not jealous of how much money others make. This time he was able to get tens of millions of shares thanks to the help of China Film Group.

After the fame is released, the money after that is not a matter of 200 meters.

"Then don't go to make a movie alone this time. This "Shark Beach" is actually flawed in many details. Human energy is limited after all. You must have a complete team to help. Then we can give you Form a professional team, the technology is absolutely excellent!"

"Then thank you, Mr. Wang. I will definitely trouble you when the script is finalized!" Tang An said quickly.

An excellent production team is definitely a great addition to the director. You can send Zhang Yimou to Hengdian to bring a group of temporary workers to see what he can shoot.

The celebration will start immediately, but Tang An doesn't have any acquaintances in the capital, Xu Jinglei and Jiang Wen are both out of town, apart from them and Han Sanping, there is also a man who looks a little strange who came uninvited.

Tang An took Yang Mi to the stage with a microphone.

Facing the reporters in the audience, Tang An felt relieved that he was finally not promoting this time.

"Thank you very much for being able to participate in the celebration party where the box office of "Shark Beach" broke through 3000 million. The film has been released for a month. It is not easy to achieve this result. I have experienced a lot during the process. On behalf of the crew, I would like to thank everyone for their support!"

As soon as Tang An finished speaking, the audience laughed immediately. He was the only one in the whole crew, what kind of crew did he represent? A reporter immediately said.

"Actually, the entire crew did not rely on me to work alone. I got help from the local villagers on the shooting site, providing us with the venue, board and lodging. Most of the shots in the movie were shot in a pool, that is The local villagers helped to dig, and I am very grateful to them, without their help, I would not have been able to finish this movie!" Tang An said sincerely.

"Director Tang, when you chose to make this movie, did you ever think that you could get 3000 million box office in the end?" A reporter continued to ask.

"Actually, my goal at that time was 1000 million. I didn't expect to give me a big surprise in the end!"

"Yang Mi is the only actor in the whole movie, how did you discover her, Director Tang?"

"At that time, I was working as an assistant director in Hengdian. I happened to pass by the crew of "A Family of Pink" and saw Yang Mi filming. At that time, I thought he was the heroine in my heart!"

"Then Yang Mi, did you know from the beginning that he was the only one in Director Tang's crew?"

"You'll know when you join the crew!" Yang Mi replied obediently.

"Did you have no doubts in your heart at that time?" the reporter asked.

Yang Mi turned her head to look at Tang An in embarrassment, and said truthfully, "Actually, I was a little worried at first, but then the director adjusted the lighting and became a photographer. He even drew pictures very well, and he would guide me every time I filmed. He also taught me over and over again, he is a great director!"

PS: Thank you "Wu Lan" for the 100 starting point reward. Everyone wish me a short visit tomorrow. The test results are average, and I hope there will be follow-up recommendations.

At the same time, thank you for your support in the past few days. It was the first time yesterday that there were more than [-] recommendation votes in a single day, thank you everyone!

Finally, about the name of the protagonist, I checked it repeatedly before uploading, but I didn’t expect that there was still a typo. If you find out, please leave a message in this chapter. I will change it as soon as I see it! ! !
