Chapter 152: Zhang Yimou Changes Job, The Whole Network Is Shocked (1, Seeking Automatic Subscriptio
Zhang Yimou really didn't expect that Shen Fei would offer him such a condition.
To know.
Filming is business first, then art.
In the final analysis, movies are still commercial operations and belong to the category of art and entertainment under the commercial industry.
Not an exaggeration.
Few people make movies for the purpose of losing money. Of course, everyone makes movies and TV series for the purpose of making money.
Of course.
Except for money laundering, which is a crime.
A normal director or investor's original intention of making movies and TV series, in addition to artistic pursuits, of course also hopes to be recognized by the market.
After all, who doesn’t like their work to be both popular and popular?
Even a guy like the King of Sunglasses is the same.
Otherwise, why would he be filming? Wouldn't it be better to write a script and have fun at home?
Now that he has a movie released in theaters, he definitely wants to not only have fun himself, but also hope that the audience can understand his good intentions and everyone can have fun together.
As the saying goes, loneliness is the carnival of one person, and carnival is the loneliness of a group of people.
But it's a pity.
Like Jiang Wen and Sunglasses King, his world is basically full of loneliness, but there is no group of people to party with him in the lonely world.
The same goes for Zhang Yimou. In recent years, his movies have been very lonely at the box office, which is why he and Zhang Weiping have differences.
It's very simple. We promised to grow old together, but you secretly baked it.
Obviously everyone agreed to strive for art, but Zhang Weiping couldn't bear the bitter consequences of box office failure and began to think of a way.
certainly.
Zhang Yimou understands his old friend's thoughts very well. He pursues art himself, but he is a businessman. If he spends real money and money, he will not even see a splash, and the compensation will be a mess. Anyone would complain.
but.
What he didn't expect was that Shen Fei would actually say that he would let him shoot as he pleased and that he would not interfere with his creation.
This person seems to have been a second-generation coal miner and real estate boss. Could it be that this is how rich he is?
But having said that, Tan Yimou is not the kind of silly boy who is just starting out.
It was impossible for him to believe Shen Fei's promise just because of a few words from him. He thought Zhang Weiping had made the same promise back then, but now he still dictates his own shooting.
At this point, Zhang Yimou no longer trusts anyone.
"Mr. Shen, I'm afraid it's not as good as you wish."
Zhang Yimou glanced at Shen Fei, smiled and said, "I don't really like changing families.
Although Zhang Weiping and himself are a bit dirty now, Zhang Yimou still values their friendship over the years.
not to mention.
The support given to him by others in the new picture is more than what Shen Fei said in vain.
"It can be written into the contract."
Shen Fei said calmly: "Director Zhang established a personal studio to cooperate with Wanli Film and Television. Your requirements are stated in the contract. If there is a breach of contract, we will terminate the contract unconditionally.
There was a pause.
Shen Fei then said: "Of course, if Director Zhang breaks your contract, you will also have to pay liquidated damages, how about that?"
Zhang Yimou was stunned.
He really didn't expect that this young boss Shen would be so courageous.
to be honest.
A top director like him doesn't have to worry about finding a new home, let alone investors.
The King of Sunglasses and Jiang Wen are so bad, there are people who are willing to wave money to film with them, let alone Zhang Yimou.
Although the box office of this national master's movies has not been satisfactory recently, the copyright fees in other aspects are still very high.
Especially in overseas markets, the value of these three words Zhang Yimou is too high.
Although Zhang Weiping claimed to lose money, he actually did not lose much.
It's just that the domestic box office is really not very good, so it makes people feel very uncomfortable.
And this time.
Shen Fei's words made Zhang Yimou's expression change, and Shen Fei said calmly: "Wanli Film and Television is discussing the issue of distribution rights, and we will be able to negotiate it soon. We can invest and distribute by ourselves. In addition, my subsidiary The real estate company is preparing to develop a cinema chain and build cinemas in third- and fourth-tier cities in China.
hiss!
These few words directly shocked Zhang Yimou.
He knew that Shen Fei was rich, but he never expected that this person would be so rich.
Apart from anything else, if you want to start this theater chain, you will need to invest at least tens of billions or even more, right?
But to be honest, if what Shen Fei said is not a lie, then the development prospects of this company are still very good.
At the very least, if Wanli Film and Television has its own theater chain, then at least the number of movies they invest in in the future will be guaranteed.
As a top director in the industry, Zhang Yimou knows this better than anyone else.
Although the aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley, the impact of the number of films on a movie is really too great.
Think about it, if it is released on the same schedule, with 30% or 40% of the movie schedule, even if the movie attendance rate is lower, it can still accumulate tens of millions in box office
But if the film schedule is low, only 10%, your movie will have to have an attendance rate several times higher than others to achieve the same box office results as others.
Although he is a great director, Zhang Yimou is very clear about this matter. Neither he nor Feng Xiaogang can afford to offend the people in the theater chain.
It's quite ridiculous to say that, don't look at the celebrities and directors in the entertainment industry, they look glamorous.
But in fact.
In the entire circle, the status of these people is slightly higher than those behind the scenes.
When facing the capital, theaters and even China Film and Cultural Administration, there is really no resistance at all.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yimou looked at Shen Fei: "Mr. Shen, are you planning to make a big splash in the entertainment industry?"
obviously.
Shen Fei had this idea, otherwise it would be impossible to do such a thing.
"I am optimistic about the future development of the entertainment industry."
Shen Fei said calmly: "I also hope to cooperate with you, Director Zhang. After all, in my eyes, you are the best film director in China."
When Shen Fei said this, he was definitely not trying to fool Zhang Yimou, but he really thought so.
No matter how much negative news Zhang Yimou has, or in a certain aspect, there is no director who is better than him.
None of this matters.
Taken together, he is China's number one director, and he is well-deserved for his reputation as a national teacher.
After hearing Shen Fei's words, "Tong Yimou was silent (acaj).
I have to admit that Shen Fei is very good at negotiating, or in other words, his words have impressed Zhang Yimou.
Think about it.
Zhang Yimou said to Shen Fei: "Mr. Shen, let me think about it.
"no problem."
Shen Fei nodded, then smiled and said: "This is my business card, I'm waiting for your call at any time.
He knew very well that there was no use in acting too hastily now. Zhang Yimou was the kind of person who was difficult to impress easily. If he could convince someone after just one meeting, it wouldn't be him.
The two exchanged phone numbers, and Shen Fei left.
He believed that as long as Zhang Yimou's mind was sound, it would be impossible to refuse his invitation.
It turns out.
Shen Fei's judgment was not wrong.
Three days later, Shen Fei received a call from Zhang Yimou.
"I can sign."
Zhang Yimou said slowly: "But there is one thing. I may not necessarily use actors from the company when filming. I may find some external actors. As long as the role is suitable, I will send out invitations. No problem?"
"of course."
Shen Fei nodded repeatedly and said: "There are good actors in our company, and there are also good actors outside. This is natural. But I still hope that you can see more of the artists in our company. After all, you are a member of your own family, and your wealth will not go to outsiders."
good. "
"
Zhang Yimou naturally had no objection.
If the acting skills were the same, he would naturally choose the artists from Wanli Film and Television.
"Over there in the new screen, do you need me to find a lawyer?"
Shen Fei asked Zhang Yimou.
After all, it is not easy to leave the new screen. That guy Zhang Weiping is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Shen Fei remembers very clearly that Zhang Yimou was exposed for remarriage and third child not long after he left the new screen in his previous life, and was fined several million.
It is said that there is no new picture to fuel the flames, and Shen Fei would not believe it even if he was killed.
"It shouldn't be of use."
Zhang Yimou smiled and said casually: "After all, it's the Olympics now, and our relationship is pretty good.
Shen Fei remained silent.
He actually underestimated this national master.
The other party's meaning was obvious. During the Olympic Games, the national division still had to prepare for the closing ceremony. Unless Zhang Weiping was crazy, he would not dare to stumble Zhang Yimou at this time.
If he really did that, what awaited him would be the treatment from above.
Although it is not necessarily public, even a greeting from a certain leader is enough to remove New Screen from the entertainment industry.
However, Shen Fei naturally didn't believe the second half of Zhang Yimou's sentence.
Zhang Yimou probably underestimated the conflict between himself and Zhang Weiping.
But since people have already said that, he can't say anything more, so he can only smile and put down the phone.
at the same time.
Shen Fei also notified Li Wei and asked him to contact Zhang Yimou.
A week later, when the Olympic Games were in full swing, news of Zhang Yimou breaking up with New Screen was suddenly exposed by the media.
[Zhang Yimou leaves the new screen and decides on his next move!]
Just a piece of news immediately detonated the entertainment industry.
No one thought that this national teacher would choose to leave the new picture company that he had cooperated with for many years during the Olympic Games. What is the situation?
Not only the movie fans were shocked, but even the insiders were shocked.
Some people even thought that this was another topic that Zhang Weiping put up to hype, after all, this guy is gone forever on the road of hype.
No matter what, they like to rely on hype to keep the heat.
Maybe this time it was his little trick.
But after Zhang Weiping said in an interview that he and Zhang Yimou were going to part ways due to some ideological issues, the news was confirmed.
At this time, the entire entertainment industry was dumbfounded.
No one expected that there would be such a thing, that the well-known master of the state, actually wanted to leave the new screen.
But the key question is, where will Zhang Yimou go after leaving the new screen?
Could it be that he is going to cooperate with Huayi Brothers?
Or is there another place to go?
All of a sudden, where Zhang Yimou went became a matter of concern to many insiders.
