Dreams of the Fragrant River

The American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards have just come to an end, and the Oscars are about to be announced soon. [;Starting] The Golden Globes and Oscars are right next to each other at this time, and they will be held later than 20 years later.

In this year's Golden Globe Awards and Oscars, Kang Jianfei was too lazy to send films to participate. However, as the agency publisher, 20th Century Fox, in order to increase its global reputation, took the initiative to help Kang Jianfei deliver the film and pay a small amount of lobbying money.

20th Century Fox's efforts have not been in vain, and successfully won the Golden Globe Award for Best Score and Best Song nominations, as well as an Oscar nomination for Best Score.

To be honest, Kang Jianfei doesn't remember much about the original soundtrack, but based on the general melody, he asked Lu Guanting to help fill in the details. Compared with the original soundtrack, Kang Jianfei can't tell which version is better.

Because the Golden Globe Awards ceremony was during the Spring Festival, Kang Jianfei had no plans to leave for the United States at all, and only let Tang Shuxuan, who was still in the United States, attend the award ceremony on his behalf.

Sure enough, the two Golden Globe nominations were all aborted, and Kang Jianfei did not win a single award.

But even so, for Hong Kong directors, being able to nominate both the Oscars and the Golden Globes at the same time is enough to pass the news for a while. After the news came back to Hong Kong, it also boosted the box office to a certain extent.

Not to mention the film awards in the United States, the nominations for the second Hong Kong Film Awards will also be announced after the new year. They will be selected from the films released in Hong Kong from January to December last year, and must be 6 projects. Only films whose staff are Hong Kongers are eligible.

This time, the Hong Kong Film Awards have changed a lot from the first one last year. In the absence of a professional film group, Shu Qi imitated the American Golden Globe Awards and organized a large jury with 258 journalists/critics. In order to be as fair as possible, these jury members are not only from Hong Kong, but also some from Singapore, Taiwan, Japan, Malaysia and South Korea.

Not only that, the second Hong Kong Film Awards also invited Japanese director Nagisa Oshima, Taiwanese director Li Xing and Hong Kong director Li Hanxiang as special guests. Xu Xiaofeng, Teresa Teng and Anita Mui were invited as guest performers. The host is directly from the original class, Ma Zheng Zeshi, Zhang Mary, Zhou Xingchi and Mao Shunyun. In addition, the editor-in-chief Pan Yuesheng was invited as the vice chairman of the jury, responsible for supervising the fairness of the selection process. The editor-in-chief Shu Qi served as the chairman of the jury, leading Professionalism of the review.

There have also been major breakthroughs in the awards of the Academy Awards. On the basis of the original, they have been increased to Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Actor and Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Music, Best 14 awards for original song, best editing, best sound, best visual effects and best motion design.

The trophy has also been redesigned. According to the body proportions of Zheng Wenya, the head of Phoenix TV, a goddess statue with a pearl in her hand and a film in her hand was created.

The Academy Awards ceremony is scheduled for March 15 at the Taiping Theatre. The awards ceremony was broadcast on Phoenix TV that night. At the same time, RTHK and RTHK were also involved. These two units helped Phoenix TV hold the awards ceremony.

Before the Spring Festival, the major media in Hong Kong began to promote the Golden Statue Awards. In order to create this year's Golden Statue Awards, Kang Jianfei spent 5 million yuan in one go to organize funds. It is almost impossible to recover the 5 million, because the influence of today's Academy Awards is too small, and Phoenix TV, as the organizer, can only get a small amount of advertising fees.

Before the award ceremony of the Academy Awards was held, Kang Jianfei received a news that was unexpected and confusing.

In China Central Television's 1983 Spring Festival Gala, Kang Jianfei asked Deng Yimin to choose two young singers who were good at singing and who could speak Mandarin to participate. And also personally wrote four songs for them. In order to avoid suspicion, Kang Jianfei, the lyricist and composer of these four New Year songs, used the pseudonym "Long Aotian".

The two little singers are named Zhang Xiang and Teng Yuwei respectively. The average age of one male and one female is 26, which is also very common with such an age. It is basically impossible to become popular in Hong Kong.

As a result, Zhang Xiang and Teng Yuwei went to the Spring Festival Evening to sing, which became popular all over China overnight, and the four songs became a divine comedy sung by everyone in the north and south.

Kang Jianfei originally wanted Deng Yimin to go north and cooperate with the China Record Company (later China Record Corporation), which was established in the mainland at the end of last year, and wanted to make a record album.

Who knew that Deng Yimin had just taken a plane to Beijing/Beijing, only to find that these four songs and other songs of the Spring Festival Gala had been recorded as albums covering the streets and alleys, and the publishing unit of this record was the China Record Society.

Deng Yimin had no choice but to go to the China Record Club, but the China Record Club said that they had obtained the copyright from the CCTV Spring Festival Gala program group. And when Deng Yimin went to the Spring Festival Gala program team again, this temporary organization had been dissolved long ago, and no one was willing to take responsibility.

Depressed, Deng Yimin complained to the comrades accompanied by the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office, who could only report the situation to their superiors.

After all, Deng Yimin belongs to a compatriot in Hong Kong. The behavior of the China Record Club was quickly criticized by his superiors, and the matter was "satisfactorily resolved".

...

"You said that the China Record Society gave you 500 yuan for the copyright fee?" Kang Jianfei looked at Deng Yimin speechlessly as if he had heard the Arabian Nights.

"500 yuan is still a lot, because I am a Hong Kong compatriot who only pays a high price. I heard that music creators in the mainland only write a song for twenty or thirty yuan." Deng Yimin smiled bitterly, he only stayed in Beijing/Beijing. Come back in a few days and stay there again and he'll feel like a fool.

Kang Jianfei laughed angrily, his arms couldn't twist his thighs. If he really spares no effort to make trouble with the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office, maybe some leaders of the central government will severely criticize the piracy of the Chinese record club due to the special period of Sino-British negotiations, and then make up for the loss of Kang Jianfei.

But because a few songs were locked up with the China Records Club, this kind of behavior outweighed the gains, and the personal connections involved were too complicated.

Deng Yimin threw out a pamphlet and said, "This was only promulgated in the mainland more than a month ago. Article 6 of it is about protecting the copyright of creators. I guess many people in the mainland have not read this regulation carefully at all. I don't know what copyright protection is."

Kang Jianfei opened the booklet and read it with interest. The content of Article 6 is: Audio-visual product publishing units shall protect the reasonable rights and interests of authors and performers. The remuneration standards and payment methods for audio-visual products of literary and artistic programs shall be jointly formulated by the Ministry of Radio and Television in conjunction with the Ministry of Culture... Audio-visual products publishers have the right to publish the recorded audio-visual materials according to agreements with authors and performers. Without the authorization of the original audio-visual product publishing unit, any other unit shall not rip and copy, or publish it without authorization. Programs that authors and performers have authorized to a certain audio-visual product publishing unit shall not be recorded and published by other audio-visual product publishing units by increasing the remuneration, repeatedly issuing remuneration or other improper means. Violators, the original audio-visual product publishing unit may sue to the judicial organ.

"Haha, the regulations are quite detailed. It's a pity it's just a piece of waste paper." Kang Jianfei couldn't help laughing when he saw it. Now all record companies in the mainland are state-run, even if they infringe on the copyright of the creators. But which creator dares to sue? Once a lawsuit is filed, it is a civil lawsuit, and it is estimated that the court will not accept it at all.

Deng Yimin sat down and took a sip of water and said, "Boss, I asked the officials of the Ministry of Culture. The possibility of opening a record company with the mainland is zero. Records are special commodities, and now the mainland has not let go of this. You can choose to cooperate with the state-run record company in the mainland to produce and release records.”

Kang Jianfei nodded. He asked Deng Yimin to go north this time, just to test the water and explore the wind. The management of cultural products in the mainland is very strict, and Kang Jian flew to the Central Taiwan to sell them and took advantage of the loopholes. It was sold just before the relevant regulations were introduced.

Now if Kang Jianfei wants to sell TV dramas to CCTV, he still needs to report to the Ministry of Radio and Television for approval, and then ask the General Administration of Customs to issue a notice.

And if Kang Jianfei wants to release records in the mainland, he must cooperate with the audio-visual publishing units in the mainland. If the cooperative unit is the China Record Club, it must also be approved by the competent department of the ministry. Then the Ministry of Radio and Television and the General Administration of Customs will issue a notice.

Anyway, in the past few years, the film and music market in the mainland is difficult to do, and Kang Jianfei doesn't want to waste his brain to manage it.

"Let's do it, let's do it to the end." Although Kang Jianfei didn't want to deliberately open up the mainland music market, it was not bad to have a good relationship with his counterparts in the mainland. "Didn't Zhang Xiang and Teng Yuwei sing on the Spring Festival Gala? Anyway, they are also in Hong Kong and Taiwan. There is not much future, you can lend them to the China Record Club."

Deng Yimin doesn't care. He doesn't have any hope for the mainland market, nor does he believe that the poor mainland people will have too much spending power.

Kang Jianfei left Fengxing Records and drove to Villa No. 4 in Repulse Bay. Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan were about to fly back to the mainland, and Kang Jianfei was here to see them off.

The two were on the plane at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. When Kang Jianfei arrived at the villa, Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan had just finished eating and were packing up, only a few large bags of souvenirs and gifts.

Seeing Ye Zishan~www.wuxiaspot.com~, Kang Jianfei suddenly had a flash in his mind and asked, "Zishan, does anyone in your family work for a record company?"

Ye Zishan nodded and said, "Yes, my cousin originally belonged to a song and dance troupe. After getting married, she joined the Guangzhou/Zhou Record Factory."

"Do you remember your cousin's phone number?" Kang Jianfei asked.

Ye Zishan didn't ask Kang Jianfei what she wanted to do, so she took a pen and wrote a phone call.

Kang Jianfei immediately called Deng Yimin and said, "Don't lend Zhang Xiang and Teng Yuwei to the China Record Club, I have a phone number here, which is the contact information of Miss Ye of the Guangzhou/Zhou Record Factory. You can talk to Miss Ye about the cooperation. ."

Kang Jianfei didn't know that in July this year, the Guangzhou/Zhou Record Factory would become a branch of the China Record Society. He only knew that he could cooperate with the Guangzhou/Zhou Record Factory, and he would never be afraid of anyone because of the Ye family's relationship.
