Chapter 451 have the last laugh
Chapter 451 The last laugh
September 17th at four o’clock.
A torrential rain made the surrounding area of Yanjing muddy and hazy.
“Mr. Zhou Yang, “Wedding March” is the piano part, what do you think?”
In the music room, Zhou Yang chatted with Perasia about the creation of “Wedding March”, Zhou Yang was greatly inspired, wrote a few lines of notes, and briefly exchanged with Perasia.
Perasia looked at those few lines of notes in amazement, and then chatted about Vienna.
Because the film “Lighthouse by the Sea” caused a certain sensation in the West, many people from small groups took to the streets to march, and Vienna was also affected, so “Going Home” Kenneth’s saxophone recital, and Peer Rasia’s “Temple” concert has been rescheduled to September 27th.
Perasia is very much looking forward to getting the piano solo of “Wedding March”, even if it is partially incomplete, she quite wants it.
Perasia is a pianist, but she is still a long way from being a “piano master”. While she has gained international fame in recent years, she is also trying every way to make herself close to the sacred name of “music master”. First, “Wedding March” is a rare opportunity for her.
But it’s a pity that Zhou Yang rejected it.
Every musician in the Chinese music circle attaches great importance to “Wedding March”. This is not only the wedding of An Zhibin and Tang Xiao, but also an opportunity for a Chinese music group to come to Vienna to show the Chinese Symphony to the West, and even These folks are considering this wedding on the banks of the Rhine…
[Huaxia people don’t understand art], many musicians hold such a sigh of relief, intending to break this sentence, Zhou Yang is naturally impossible to authorize Perasia to perform.
After coming out of the music room, Zhou Yang saw that Wang Jing was just walking over, with a cold expression on his face.
“Mr. Zhou, the meeting of the Golden Horse Awards gang is over, and their intentions are quite clear. I hope we will go to the Golden Horse Awards first, and then they will send us an invitation letter…”
“How can there be such a thing?”
“Well, the Golden Horse Award has been regarded as one of the three most powerful awards in Chinese in the past few years, and because of the special relationship between Taiwan and the mainland, many things are not easy to participate in directly… It indirectly shows that this time the directors and the capital are right. The pressure exerted by the Golden Horse Awards is not small…”
“Oh.”
“Mr. Zhou, shall we go? After Liu Tianwang came back from Venice, he has been very depressed. “Infernal Affairs” itself is that he wants to prove himself… If he doesn’t go to the Golden Horse Awards this time, it should be a big blow to him… But if From our past, it is obvious that this time the Golden Horse Awards have been infiltrated by capital, we have won so many nominations, maybe we will win some leftover awards, your best actor, I don’t think I can get it…”
“Okay, I get it now.”
“Mr. Zhou, what do you think?”
“No, tell Liu Tianwang, I will have a movie, as long as he believes in me.”
“it is good.”
Outside the window.
The windows were hazy due to the heavy rain, making it impossible to see into the distance.
Wang Jing nodded and left with the information.
Zhou Yang squinted, walked into the office step by step, and then glanced at the news again.
In the news, there are no more films from those directors, or other news, and it is obviously suppressed.
However, the heated discussions among netizens have continued, with various conspiracy theories emerging one after another, and even some people even exaggeratedly restored the whole thing…
Zhou Yang finally understood why An Xiao’s mood seemed to be so stressed a few days ago.
Then…
He suddenly felt that these veteran directors in the Chinese film industry were quite arrogant, and also felt that how can directors in this world have such courage and dare to sing against the relevant departments.
The directors of Huaxia in the original world, at most, criticized some things and made some movies, but they would never join forces to do things like this.
He turned his head to look at the gloomy sky outside the window again, and suddenly felt that the current sky was very similar to this circle…
In the past, these directors covered the sky with one hand, or suppressed those potential juniors, or absorbed them into their own camp, and trained these young directors in the way of “guiding” and “teaching”, and with the producers, The close relationship between the capital side has led to the fact that they have the final say in the entire film industry.
My own life turned out of the world, shattering and breaking many things, but these directors suddenly came out like this at a critical time.
Because of their reasons, young directors have not yet grown up and cannot become pillars at all, while Hollywood movies are ravaging China. Without resistance, these Hollywood movies will be even more ferocious, directly sweeping the Chinese film circle…
This is nothing, but what is really fatal is that Huaxia Films fails to meet the box office target of 2007, which will not only affect An Xiao’s resume, but also hit the morale of the entire industry.
These people really feel a little bit strangled by the throat.
Just as Zhou Yang was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door in the office.
Then, the smiling tiger Zhou Yilin smiled and walked over with an agreement.
“Xiao Zhou, fortunately not humiliated, Django’s “Liao Zhai Painted Skin” has signed our sharing agreement, the whole movie is produced by Xinghui on the surface, but we secretly dominate the whole plate… I plan to invite Liu Tianwang , Donnie Yen and others will participate, and I will also assist from the secret, you can rest assured, but the special effects team is quite difficult…”
Just after Zhou Yilin and Zhou Yang talked about “Liao Zhai Painted Skin”, there was another knock on the door in the office.
Coincidentally…
This time, Zheng He, the person in charge of Huaxia special effects company “Pioneer”, came in.
When he saw Zhou Yilin, he was stunned for a moment, then called Director Zhou, and then looked at Zhou Yang: “Mr. Zhou, this is the purchase list of our “Pioneer” company’s latest equipment, other than that, [Digital Domain ] The Italian person in charge of ] Salina has contacted us. She is a fan of your “Yangcun” and is currently guiding our company on the Internet. In two days, our “Pioneer” will be officially filmed It’s gone!”
Zhou Yang nodded after listening to the report, then looked at Zhou Yilin.
He found that Zhou Yilin’s eyes were full of surprises, and then he started chatting with Zheng He about some special effects issues.
After chatting, Zhou Yilin couldn’t wait to go to the “Pioneer” to see the new equipment, and after a few words with Zhou Yang, he left the office with Zheng He.
After the two left, the office began to quiet down.
Zhou Yang took a look at the “Pioneer” equipment purchase list, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
Don’t doubt, each of the latest special effects equipment of “Pioneer” is hundreds of thousands, or even millions…
This is burning money!
And the burning made Zhou Yang very painful.
Then, he was in a trance…
Two years ago, even in his dreams, he would have spent hundreds of thousands, millions of dollars!
Then, he took another look at the company’s account.
The investments and expenditures these days make the company’s current account in a depleted stage, and there is not much available working capital.
He turned and looked out the window.
It’s about half past five in the evening.
But the dark clouds on the horizon did not dissipate, instead they became more and more dense, with gusts of howling wind.
Just when Zhou Yang thought that An Xiao’s car would not come to Huaxing, Zhou Yang’s cell phone rang An Xiao’s voice.
………………
“Yanjing has not had such a heavy rain for many years!”
“After this torrential rain, it is estimated that the weather will start to get cold.”
It was hazy outside the car window, and it was completely impossible to see the road ahead.
A car flashed double and moved forward slowly.
In the car, the driver, Aunt Zhang, drove the car carefully and sighed unconsciously.
Zhou Yang and An Xiao were exceptionally quiet.
Zhou Yang noticed that An Xiao was leaning on the seat back very tiredly and was rubbing his eyes.
She didn’t seem to sleep well last night, and today she seems to have a busy day, and her work doesn’t seem to be going well…
Zhou Yang did not disturb her, but looked at the pouring rain outside the window and the pedestrians who were holding umbrellas on the road, but were finally blown away by the heavy rain.
“How many directors are there in the China Youth Directors Association?”
An Xiao suddenly asked this question.
“About five members other than the management…”
“No one joins?”
“Yes, yes, but then they all quit the club.”
Zhou Yang felt that this incident was nothing, but after contacting the recent events, Zhou Yang was a little surprised. He vaguely knew that there must be those veteran directors involved in it.
Zhou Yang was suddenly embarrassed. In fact, after the establishment of this association, Zhou Yang basically let Feng Kai take care of him. Because he was too busy, he basically didn’t participate much. Occasionally Feng Kai would chat with Zhou Yang a few times. The current situation of the Huaxia Directors Association also expressed some concerns, but Zhou Yang never took it to heart.
“Oh.”
An Xiao nodded, then continued to close her eyes without speaking.
“Feel sorry…”
“It’s not strange, you are only one person after all… Besides, there are too many of them, and many things are deeply rooted, so it’s not so easy to break, take your time.” An Xiao shook her head and forced a smile.
Any reform, any change in the jobs of some people, will encounter a lot of resistance.
The leaders of the older generation have retired, and after the leaders of the new generation came up, they are still taking some conservative lines. Although it is not to say that they are corrupt, many actions are very difficult to carry out because they are held accountable.
Although An Xiao has a very strong relationship behind it, it is impossible for An Xiao to really use these things.
and…
Other people are also related, and many things are full of factions just like a network. Once it really moves, it will involve too much scope.
Zhou Yang also understands these situations.
When the car was about to drive to the gate of the villa, Zhou Yang was silent for a while, and then made a decision in his heart.
“An Xiao…”
“Um?”
“Tomorrow, I will ask the China Film Association to hold a meeting to contact Director Wang Shuai, Director Huang Jiacheng, and Director Huang… In addition, I will also contact Director Feng Kai and Director Feng at night. If necessary, I will contact Director Feng personally. Look at those young directors…”
“What do you want to do?”
“There are still three months, three months, enough to make a lot of movies…”
“How to shoot?”
“I have a lot of scripts in my head. If they strike, let them stop and see who will have the last laugh…”
