Chapter 84: Open a studio

In China, there is no obvious dividing line between commercial films and literary and artistic films. Most films just mark the category of "drama films" and then they are covered, so there are some disputes on this point.
In the minds of old-school filmmakers, literary and artistic films represent a director’s highest artistic pursuit of his own film career. They often express the director’s artistic soul and do not have the smell of copper. Therefore, they prefer some that are not expensive but complete. Extremely high, connotation, and shooting techniques are brilliant movies.
This standard is nowadays bold and original in some ideas, but eclectic independent filmmakers seem to be a little scornful.
A movie that is good is good, and if it is not good, it is not good. Isn’t it better to make a movie that is full of artistic sense and sells well?
"Cats and Anxue" does not fall short of those selected films in terms of artistic expression. At the same time, the rhythm is smooth and the plot catches people. Isn't it a model film that countless people think of, a perfect fusion of literary and commercial films?
The interrogation also represents the hearts of countless audiences.
But it is a pity that the dedicated filmmakers who currently occupy the seats of the judges of the major film awards ceremonies are not too young, and they do not have the courage to break the convention.
Although on the surface, "Cats and Anxue" have been included in the award candidates, but they still do not agree with the excessive commercial value of this article.
Even if Meng Chuan and others didn't understand it once or twice, they reacted later.
My heart is upset and difficult to understand. I just feel that the film industry is really uncomfortable. It's not just about shooting the movie.
Meng Chuan took a sip of wine and sighed: "I'll leave it alone, what's the matter with you? It's excusable for a actor not to catch it. After all, you have such a short experience, how can you even get a "newcomer award". No? What does your company do for food?"
There is no absolute fairness in the world, and there are uneven film awards at home and abroad: the top awards ceremony judges focus on seniority, and the better awards ceremony will also take the network and word of mouth into consideration, and the worse it needs the popularity and popularity of actors. Behind the company's management to decorate the facade...
In short, the undercurrent of the game behind it is raging. If the company does not work public relations for the artists, even if it has the strength, it will be difficult to make a stand out in this starry place.
Meng Chuan worked hard abroad in the early years and met many superstars with outstanding acting skills, and many actors have worked with him after returning to China.
It's not an exaggeration, in his opinion, based on Zhou Yuhe's performance in the movie, not to mention a mere newcomer award, even the actor can fully afford it!
It's just that he is too young now, and has no foundation in the circle, and he is not playing cards at the same table with the actors who are competing for the actor.
For such a young man with potential, Meng Chuan witnessed his transformation with his own eyes. At this time, he was of course indignant at the cold reception he received.
Zhou Yuhe's face was faint, just a newcomer award. He hadn't seen any big winds and waves in his previous life, and he didn't want to jump over this matter, but the signs of this matter made him faintly annoyed.
He said: "I.S is all messed up inside, so how can I take care of my artist's award?"
When Meng Chuan and his assistant heard it, their expressions were straight.
He heard some news recently. He thought it was groundless, but now...
Meng Chuan approached and asked in a deep voice, "Is it true that the old man Ji...?"
Zhou Yuhe glanced at him, and Meng Chuan fell silent immediately.
Recently, there was a rumour within the company that Mr. Ji entered the hospital three times. This news made some people in the company start to move around.
Ji Chen’s uncle, Ji Yuan, is more than fierce, but lacks means and heart. His reputation in the entertainment industry these years is not very good. In addition, his early years are not clearly related to the death of Ji Chen’s father, not Father Ji. The right heir in mind.
At that time, Ji Chen was still young. In order to protect his little grandson from the Ji clan's relatives, Master Ji delegated the power to Ji Yuan, letting him take the real power of the Ji family to attract attention, and he and his grandson secretly gathered their strengths.
Unexpectedly, this release was put for many years. When Ji Chen grew up, he wanted to collect it but couldn't collect it.
Mr. Ji is sick and doesn't take care of the company's chores all the year round, leaving it to the professional management team hired by Ji Yuanhe.
Under Ji Yuan's years of management, I.S has changed blood from inside to outside, and the executives are loyal to him.
Compared with the family business, the current I.S is more like his private property. Whoever is pleasing to the eye will help him, and whoever offends him will have no place in I.S.
To break such an iron plate, Ji Chen's way to seize the position is obviously difficult.
Fortunately, Ji Chen is hundreds of times stronger than his uncle. Not only does the Thunder do not lose, but the scheming is even more staggering.
He took a different approach, instead of entering the I.S senior level as a manager, he became an I.S artist, starting from the entertainment industry.
These years seem to be intoxicated and playful, bohemian, but actually accumulated many contacts.
In the company, he used the artist's identity as a cover to catch Ji Yuan's nepotism and win over a group of employees and executives who had long spoken.
In the past few years, his playing capital was still covered up. Recently, the several movies he invested in his hand have achieved good results. This has given him the confidence to become more reckless in front of Ji Yuan, which made this "savvy" uncle, Be vigilant in hindsight.
Ji Chen's wings are already abundant, and his uncle is just "vigilant", which is far from enough for him who is eager to get up. What he wants is to make a mistake, to take the opportunity to drive Ji Yuan out of the board of directors.
Father Ji’s "critical illness" is precisely the flaw that the grandparents deliberately sold to Ji Yuan.
Zhou Yuhe's lips could not help but a sneer appeared.
He still remembered that after he was disfigured, he was lying in the hospital, watching the bitter tricks performed by the grandson and grandson. The crutches made of old man Ji’s sandalwood sinking wood hit Ji Chen one after another, full of anger and anger, thinking Is it to live another five or eight years without any problems, let alone now?
He hadn't been with Ji Chen at this moment in his previous life.
Zhou Yuhe tapped the table with his fingers lightly. Seeing Meng Chuan's look of obedient and embarrassed look of gossip, he paused for a while and said, "The old man is okay. He just worked hard to pave the way for Ji Chen."
Meng Chuan nodded, thinking that this I.S is also about to come, no wonder that Zhou Yuhe is not in charge.
Meng Chuan tilted his head and thought for a while and said, "But this is not the way to go. I don't know how long the IS battle will take before it ends. Can you just leave it to them? You can't even draw a newcomer award to PR for you. , Not to mention afterwards?"
Zhou Yuhe was silent.
Meng Chuan's mind came to light, and he hurriedly said, "How many top traffic are you in the entertainment industry? Why not set up a personal studio?"
"Personal studio?" Zhou Yuhe was also stunned.
To be honest, today's celebrities prefer a liberalized studio to a large company. In the past, all resources were held in the hands of companies and agents, and the power of life and death was completely controlled by others. Now with the development of the network, the flow effect of celebrities and the effect of fans have become larger, and the fast network has helped these resources even more. It's easy to come to your door, so whether you are setting up a dedicated studio in a large company or going out to do it alone, this model is extremely popular nowadays.
"Yes, why didn't I expect it!" Zhou Yuhe's face showed an expression of sudden realization.
Actually no wonder he. He had been with Ji Chen not long after being popular in his previous life, and has been bound with Ji Chen ever since.
Ji Chen’s IS is Zhou Yuhe’s IS. All resources are first inclined to him. There has never been a problem of insufficient manpower and insufficient funds to manage public relations. Naturally, he never thought of running a personal studio, even if he did. , Is also limited to the kind of studio that cancels the contract and goes on its own. At this time, I remembered that the studio also does something inside the company, so you don't have to wait until the contract is terminated.
This gave Zhou Yuhe a clue. He sat in the room and comforted Meng Chuan casually. After being noticed that he was absent-minded, he was kicked out with a smile and scolding.
After I went back to discuss with Yang Yu, the other party also found it feasible, so he asked his staff to write the application plan.
Recently, I.S has a lot of wrongs and wrongs. As I.S’s gold agent, Yang Yu has been seized of real power before and rushed to bring the new actor department. But in the past two years, due to Zhou Yuhe’s real enthusiasm, he has re-established his prestige in IS. He has recently been promoted to manager and is considered a member of the executives. During this time, he was disturbed by the dispute between the two nephews and uncles of the Ji family. It's really overwhelming, it really doesn't have any extra thoughts to manage Zhou Yuhe's affairs.
As soon as the studio’s idea came out, Yang Yu felt that this was a good opportunity to get out of the whirlpool. It was rare that he hadn’t poured any cold water on, and he stubbornly determined the general operating structure of the studio, and turned and submitted it to IS upper level.
Unexpectedly, this mention was mentioned for several weeks, and there was no more news.
The awards season is coming to an end, and the enthusiasm of the people has long since disappeared. I thought that "Cat and Anxue" would be as big as the "Xuantong Emperor". In the end, only two "best movies" and one "best" were won. Director" and a "Best Newcomer Award".
Half of the people shouted that they couldn't understand the result, while the other half were secretly proud.
Although the most important Golden Dragon Award each year has not been drawn yet, most people have already anticipated the ending, so they can't bring much interest.
What really caused the storm was another blockbuster news: Ji Chen is getting engaged to Meng Churong!
