Rebirth: I Want to Surf

"Who is knocking on my window, who is plucking the strings, that part."

In the dead of night, Cai Qin's mellow singing, like fine wine, wafted in the room. The rain outside is getting lighter, pattering on the windows, and the lights are dim, this is Yao Yuan's favorite time alone.

When he is alone, he is usually thinking, thinking about the past and the future, those things that travel through time and space that only he knows, secret and lonely, really has the charm of "Forgotten Time".

In the era affected by the epidemic, the domestic film market declined, and it will be most obvious in 2022. The tightening of the policy is visible to the naked eye, and it will become tighter in the future. This is not to throw the pot away or make alarmist talk, but something that has already happened.

Just a few words:

Zhang Yimou, "Sturdy as a Rock", completed in 2019.

Tian Zhuangzhuang, "Birds and Chirping" will be completed in 2019.

Cao Baoping, "Crossing the Sea of ​​Wrath", finished in 2019.

Zhang Meng, "Guns and Waist Flowers", completed in 2016.

Chen Kaige, "My Boyhood", finished in 2019.

The above are all films that have been produced but have not been approved for release. The reasons for not being approved are all kinds of strange, and there are even no reasons.

For example, "Bird Chirping" has long been sent for review, but there is no response.

No response means that the official has never given an explanation whether it is passed or not, and it is impossible for Tian Zhuangzhuang to ask, so it has been delayed until now.

The "14th Five-Year Plan for Film Development" states:

"Every year, we focus on launching about 10 high-quality masterpieces that are well-received and well-received. The annual box office of over 100 million domestic films has reached 50, and the annual box office of domestic films has remained above 55%. The audience's satisfaction with domestic films continues to remain high. Looking forward to 2035 It is very interesting that my country will become a film powerhouse in 2019. It is true to develop domestic films, but shouldn’t the box office of a film be determined by the market? If the audience likes it, the box office is naturally not bad. Do domestic films need to reach 50?

The document stipulates that the box office can exceed 100 million? What if it fails to reach it?

Others don't know why, anyway, in later generations, Yao Yuan hasn't been to the cinema for almost 2 years, and those who are interested don't want to go, so it's better to become a member and watch it online.

"Chi slip!"

Under the lamp, he took a sip of tea, pulled back his messy thoughts, and focused on the computer screen again.

Now I want to work on a big project to save energy, there are countless in my stomach, the key is which one to choose. The times are different, the market is different, and the movies that will be a big hit in later generations may not be able to do it now.

Hong Kong filmmaker Yu Wei is still around these days, controlling most of the blockbuster filming rights. In the mainland, only the Big Three of Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, and Feng Xiaogang can compete.

Except for Ge You, other mainland actors can't afford the box office. The mainstream is still the old Hong Kong stars, and the model of "Hong Kong hero and mainland heroine" is popular.

The project should look big, but the actual cost is small or medium, and there is a little surplus in the end.

A series of works such as "Painted Skin", "Inception" and "Red Cliff" flashed across my heart, and the special effects films were brushed off first, and I couldn't afford it, and there was no such condition.

The main theme is also brushed off, it's not yet time.

If the filming starts next year and it is released in the year after next, it will be worth up to 300 million in the mainland and he wants to guarantee the performance in Hong Kong.

Yao Yuan stared at the screen, more and more names appeared in his mind, worried about how to choose, thought for a while, and slapped the table down.

Children only make choices, of course I want them all!

the next day.

Yao Yuan was awakened by the fragrance, he came to the kitchen sniffling, saw Yin Yin was busy, said: "You didn't eat this morning?"

"Eat, the dumplings made by my mother are delicious. I brought some for you, and I will cook some porridge."

"What stuffing?"

"Three delicacies."

"I just like three delicacies."

Yao Yuan picked up a warm dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth. The ratio of leeks, eggs, and shrimps was just right. It was really delicious. Yin Yin also served porridge

There are also small pickles, sitting opposite to watch him eat breakfast.

Looking at it, he was a little hesitant to speak, and said:

"My dad wants to see you."

"Well, it's finally your father's turn! There will be no one else after your father, don't make another hidden boss come out?"

"It's a coincidence to be less talkative. When I went back yesterday, my dad just called my mom, chatted with me for a while, and asked me about work and love, so I told him."

Yin Yin raised three slender fingers, reminding:

"First, we haven't been in a relationship for 4 years and only talked for less than 1 year. My mother promised to testify. Second, my dad doesn't like you, a capitalist, but with my grandfather's endorsement, it's okay if he doesn't like it. Third. , you need to meet and talk."

"Based on your father's time, I can do it anytime."

"He's really busy this time around, maybe at the end of the year, or during the Spring Festival. Aren't your parents coming over too, just to have another meal together."

"Okay, no problem!"

Yao Yuan stuffed the dumpling in his mouth and nodded, Yinyin laughed when he heard it, and fed him another one before swallowing it down.

After eating, the two went to work together.

Yao Yuan doesn't know how to write scripts, and he doesn't even know how to draw a storyboard of a stickman. He can only make an outline of the story, and let people complete it into an outline first, and then write it into a script.

In his vision, Maili Video will become a platform like Qiyi and Tencent Video in the future, only for internal use. If the acquisition of Golden Harvest is successful, he also wants to set up a video website in Hong Kong in the name of Golden Harvest, focusing on going overseas.

This is the design of long video.

And those messy businesses under his banner are now taking shape more and more. The incubator function of Maimai, games, video, e-commerce, and the community is about to come to an end. When e-commerce, review and ticketing are separated, the community should take action. Group buying is not counted. Group buying has been holding back and has not developed, so it doesn't matter if you do it again.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Come in!"

Yao Yuan knocked on the door of Yu Jiajia's office.

It stands to reason that he doesn't need to knock on the door, but Bao Qi will see some fancy parking scenes. To avoid embarrassment, he has always been very polite.

"It rained yesterday, I was so inspired, I wrote something, you find someone to perfect it."

Qian Jiajia took a look at one called "Wu Shuang".

One is called "Ip Man".

"These are the two projects you are looking for for Shen Nanpeng?"

"There are four! There is also "Manslaughter", and the next part of the "Crazy" series, Beijing, Hong Kong, and Thailand will cooperate.

Yao Yuan put "Wu Shuang" on the top, and said: "This film is the main one, the cost is the highest, the scale is the largest, and the best actors are invited. Even a fool will know that it is very exciting after watching it. It is the kind that investors want." Traditional big project.”

Yu Jiajia took a cursory look and assured her, "Okay, I understand. I'll find someone right away. Four-legged toads are hard to find. Two-legged screenwriters are everywhere. What's missing is opportunity."
