You Made Me a Superstar

   Chapter 456 Before the sweep

   The film project filed by Huaxing caused a sensation in the film circle!

   Countless filmmakers watched a movie released under Huaxing's official Weibo, and they were beyond shocked.

   Even Chen Kai, who has been in the film industry for decades, is stunned.

   After seeing the news, he immediately confirmed to Xu Kangnian of the relevant department.

   "There is indeed such a thing. The script outline and project have been reviewed and approved by a special support channel. The total project budget for filming, including "Spider-Man", is about 700 million yuan..."

   After Xu Kangnian on the other end of the phone finished speaking, he was silent for a long time, and then added: "I have read the script outline myself, and there are no substantive problems."

   "Does he really dare to shoot like this? He's not afraid of losing all his pants!" After Chen Kai heard this sentence, he still couldn't hide his astonishment.

   Just when Chen Kai wanted to chat with Xu Kangnian again, Xu Kangnian on the other end of the phone seemed to have met someone, so he hung up the phone immediately.

  The morning sun shines in the office.

   Chen Kai looked at the phone, the shock in his heart finally improved a lot.

   He turned on the computer and browsed the countless news about Zhou Yang on the Internet, almost every one of them was very hot!

   Looking at these explosive news, Chen Kai calmed down instead.

   "In order to make people perish, they must first make people crazy!"

  ………………

   "This is the place where Mr. Zhou used to start his business. Later, it was bought by the company. Since the new company moved, this place has been empty."

"Hua Xing's journey has not been smooth, even a bit bumpy... When it was difficult, the entire Hua Xia company was only me and Mr. Zhou, and a few others. The others all ran away. But luckily we persevered..."

"I called you here today because I hope to use this place as the project base of the Huaxia Youth Directors Association. Thanks to Mr. Zhou's operation in the past two years and the strong support of relevant departments, our Youth Directors Association has approved some support funds. I have watched almost every movie of yours, and I understand that it is not easy for you, but believe me, although there is a lot of discussion in the outside world, we have suffered a lot of criticism and doubts, and even been trampled on the soles of our feet, living without dignity. But now, all the easy things are over.”

"I have seen all of your movie plans and the film projects to be filmed, and I have also informed President Zhou, and President Zhou will be here soon. At that time, President Zhou will make various choices for your film projects. and investments, prioritizing and deferring…”

  “…”

  September 19th at eight o'clock in the morning.

Huaxing.

   Old company meeting room.

  Feng Kai looked at the five middle-aged people in the conference room, and introduced "Hua Xing" with a very serious expression on his face.

   These are the "Young Directors" he has selected and has had works.

   At the end of the last century, with the booming economic development of China, a large number of new directors emerged.

   They are all like the rising sun, full of vigor and dreams, and joined this circle.

But this line of work is not friendly to them. They have no connections, no resources, only a very distant dream and the most worthless talent. They finally made a movie, but because of some man-made reasons, it could not be released and finally ran away. I won a few pheasant nomination awards overseas, and when I finally felt that I could rise to the top with my work, I was reported as soon as I returned to China, which eventually led to my ban.

  The group of young directors who used to have great ambitions and ambitions have been suppressed to the point of smoothing their edges and corners. Some of them are still struggling, and some of them can't stand the pressure of life and directly change their careers to other industries.

  Although they can all mix and eat, but there are few that are more satisfactory.

   At this moment, these directors are sitting in chairs, full of incredible and trance dreaming.

   All this is too unreal to them.

   "Director Feng, can we really get the investment? It's filmed, can it be released?" A bald director hesitated, stood up, and asked uncertainly.

   Feng Kai looked at the bald director with a smile on his face: "Didn't you have a chat with Mr. Zhou?"

   "Yes, but I'm not sure. After all, I'm not a student of Yanying Academy, I'm a director of Yeji University..." The bald director nodded, but there was still a bit of uncertainty on his face, a bit of embarrassment floating on his face.

   The director's name is Liu Can.

  In the 1990s, I made a literary film called "Black and White Humor", which was shown at the Russian International Film Festival, and once got a big response.

   But after returning to China, he was banned.

   The reason for the ban is: "The script has not been reported, and the film has not been reported, which is an illegal release of the film."

   Before the ban, Liu Can constantly supplemented various reporting materials and communicated with relevant departments, hoping to lift the ban.

   But whenever the relevant departments almost agree, when it can be unblocked, he will always be reported inexplicably...

  Some unwarranted color remarks, as well as the alleged reactionary at the core of the film, and even personal style have become so-called reporting materials.

A few years later, he learned that his film must be reported to relevant departments first, and then reported to the leaders of the Huaxia Film Association, filled in the information, and then conducted a screening review and various internal system reviews. After all these, it is not enough to pay another "China Film Association's release deposit", which ranges from one million to several hundred thousand, so that the film can be queued for release in China.

   Even after these films are successfully released, the timing of the film schedule depends on God’s will, and sometimes it will be scheduled to midnight if you are unlucky.

   The repeated blows left Liu Can with little confidence.

   Even Yu Zhou Yang chatted with him a lot about movies. After talking about his past experiences, Liu Can was still worried.

   In addition, his educational background is not an orthodox film school, and he is considered a half-way monk. Invisibly, this sense of inferiority becomes stronger.

   Feng Kai was about to say something, but found the door outside the house opened.

   Immediately afterwards, there was a voice full of energy: "I didn't graduate from Yan Ying, am I also making movies? Education is important, but acquired learning is more important..."

   Everyone turned their heads, but saw a handsome but tall figure walking in from the door.

   "Director Zhang, Director Liu, Director Su, Director Qian..."

   Just when everyone was astonished, that figure greeted everyone very seriously, his eyes full of sincerity.

   "Zhou, Mr. Zhou!"

   "Director Zhou..."

"week…"

   Everyone stood up subconsciously.

Zhou Yang waved to the crowd, then came to Liu Can and handed the script of "Crazy Stone" to Liu Can: "Look at the script, this is a black comedy movie, similar to your "Black and White Humor". Similarly, the script is not complete. You will fill in the detailed script with the outline. After the completion, I will look at it. If it is similar, you can take this book and shoot it... However, you need to communicate with me when shooting..."

   After Liu Can took over the script of "Crazy Stone" in shock, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhou Yang in disbelief: "This, is this the movie project announced on the company's Weibo?"

"Yes!"

   "I, I, President Zhou, don't worry, I'll take a look now, I'll take a serious look..." Liu Can's hands were shaking while holding the script, he nodded desperately.

   "Well, let's go first. You can choose any one of the offices outside. It will be your dedicated office in the future. After you finish it, you will make a detailed plan!"

   "Okay, I'll go now!" Liu Can nodded again, then walked away without looking back with the script.

   Then Zhou Yang walked towards Director Zhang Zhang Changsheng on the other side: "Director Zhang..."

   "Yes, Mr. Zhou!"

"I've read the book of your road movie "All the Way Laughing Flowers", the script is fine, the eight million investment is fine, I have also read the shooting plan, it's fine, I came here today to meet you and listen to Tell me about the detailed movie plan..." Zhou Yang came to a fat man with glasses with a smile on his face.

   "Ah!" Fatty director Zhang Changsheng became excited when he saw it, and was speechless for a while.

In the early years, he was a not-so-famous comedian. Later, he turned into a director and made a few movies. The box office was mediocre, and he even lost some money. After falling out with Xinghui for some reason. He was banned until last year.

After the unblocking, things were right and wrong, and I couldn't get investment. I talked to the Huaxia Directors Association through my relationship. They didn't like his movies at all. It was impossible to give him any resources, so he kept embarrassed. A few days ago, he received a call from Feng Kai. When Feng Kai asked him if he had any movie plans, he thought he had encountered a scam call. This time, he also took the attitude of giving it a try and came over with the road movie script. Thinking of coming here this time, did you really get the investment?

   "Yes, the finance department has approved it. This is a movie invested by Huaxing. Make it well and show me the progress of the project regularly..."

"it is good!"

  …

  In the conference room.

  Feng Kai watched Zhou Yang chatting with every director.

   Obviously he was the director he dug up first, but Feng Kai found that Zhou Yang knew every director's work very well.

   Feng Kai just sat and looked at Zhou Yang, watching Zhou Yang chatting and laughing, he inexplicably felt that Zhou Yang had the aura of a superior person, he couldn't help being awe-inspiring, and at the same time...

   There is also an invisible sense of pressure and distance.

   He looked out the window subconsciously.

   Those directors who claim to be in control of the Chinese film industry…

   This time may really be lost.

this moment…

   This thought suddenly appeared in his mind.

  ………………

   "Jaws may be breaking records!"

"what?"

   "Maybe it will become China's first billion-dollar movie!"

"what?"

   "I just finished watching the demo, go to the cinema tomorrow, it will be of great help to your "Liao Zhai Painted Skin"! This is the work of the real master of horror movies!"

evening.

   Django got the shooting plan for "Liao Zhai Painted Skin", and when he was about to call Zhou Yilin to finish chatting and set the shooting date, Zhou Yilin called him instead.

   It seems that the second chapter has been fucked...

   Looks like it needs to be rewritten...
