Chapter 778:

Poli Jiayin belongs to Fuji, and is the legendary Fuji chaebol.
It is also a large group, not only making records, but also one of Japan's major foreign film distributors-distributing Japanese films externally and foreign films internally.
Also an investor in "Sometimes Dancing".
"What are you talking about?" Xu Fei asked.
"Liaoying City, the current environment..."
Lao Song looked like a big boss. Before he finished speaking, he suddenly said hello: "Hi!"
The visitor had small eyes, a generous face and an inexplicable smell of kimchi, and said: "Mr. Song!"
"Everyone knows, this is the guest I invited, the representative of Finecut Korea. Finecut is a Korean foreign film distributor, and it is of the same nature as Polycarton.
"Color is Empty" and "My Savage Girlfriend", they are responsible for the distribution in South Korea, and they also bought the copyright to the remake. "
"Hello there!"
"Hello there!"
This Korean came up and issued a business card. Xu Fei took a look. It was written in Korean and English, and his name was SuhYoungjoo.
"SuhYoungjoo?"
He transliterated it, Xu Yingzhu, or Xu Yongzhou.
Introduce one by one, strung together, Lao Song Zhangluo said: "Let's go over there to chat, there will be quiet."
When he found a cafe, he carried forward the spirit of being a master and said: "We were talking about the drama "Sometimes Dancing" just now.
"It's a good work, I really like "Ruan Lingyu" directed by Guan." Xu Yingzhu complimented.
"Hey, it's not about the content, but about the mode of composition of this film."
Lao Song slapped a cigar and pointed to Jiangshan: "The Asian brothers have had a hard time in the past two years. The financial turmoil, the Hollywood invasion, and some internal reasons have caused the loss of local audiences.
Polly Kayin launched an Asian project and invested in three plays, Hong Kong’s "Sometimes Dancing", Taiwan’s Yang Dechang’s "One One", and Japan’s Iwai Shunji’s "Youth Fantasy Story" (later changed to "About Lili Zhou" all")
I find this idea and vision very interesting. "
"Absurd, we just want to reshape the label of Asian movies." Yasuda said.
"Since we are sitting together, we have to be honest and honest. Let me start by talking about the fact that all markets are now being invaded by Hollywood. In addition to enhancing our own strength, it is also important to strengthen regional cooperation."
Old Song took a tea cup, "This is the Hong Kong market."
I took another one, "This is the Japanese market."
"This is the Korean market."
"This is Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia and other markets..."
He fiddled with a few teacups and said: "West Asia is not forgotten, here is a population of 200-300 million, a huge movie market. Hollywood is now paying more and more attention to internationalization, and it is impossible to let it go. How to fight?
Bolijiayin's project is very inspiring to me, I want to add a few points.
First, in East Asia and Southeast Asia, some cultures are interlinked. This is the foundation.
Second, what about the market shrinking? Simple, expand the market! Turn local resources into regional resources, and achieve market integration through talent sharing, cross-border investment, joint production, and distribution.
For example, "Initial D", Japan and Hong Kong jointly invested and filmed in both places, then it has a market in both places.
For example, if I shoot a ghost film in Thailand, it has a market in Thailand and Hong Kong, and it can even expand. Because the ghost culture of the East prevails in East Asia and Southeast Asia. "
Speaking of this, the eyes of several people are already bright.
It is difficult for a simple foreign film to enter the local market, and there is no policy preference. But if joint investment, or even stuffing a few local actors into it, becomes a co-production film, then it can not only come in, but also export.
It can be shown in multiple markets, virtually expanding the audience.
Historically, Asia has indeed done this. For example, the Korean movie "Samurai" invited Zhang Ziyi. Zhang Ziyi was also invited to the Japanese film "Tugu Palace".
Another example is "Damn", Hong Kong, Singapore and Thailand invested in three places. "Three Watches", co-produced by Thailand, South Korea, and Hong Kong.
The most typical "Initial D", Jay Chou's role is directly called Takumi...
In theory, this mode is fine.
The problem is that no one expected the humble mainland market to rise so quickly. As the entire Hong Kong circle goes north, it is enough to eat the mainland, and there is no need to engage in regional alliances.
Also, I didn't expect Korean movies to rise so fast that people would play it by themselves.
Only Japan is pushing hard, haha, and hasn't made any progress.
"We have two advantages. We don't talk about cultural elements. The other is that the cost is much lower than Hollywood. I don't know how to call Asia, but I have a name called Pan Asia!
If pan-Asian cooperation is successful, it will be able to connect audiences in multiple markets at a cost far lower than Hollywood! "
Hiss!
In the exclamation of everyone, Lao Song tactically leaned back, and the big cigar puffed and smoked.
This year President Xu 35, the Berlin Conference, sitting in the corner like myself...
"Mr. Song's idea is very clever, but the matter is big and we need to study it." Yasuda said.
"We also need to digest. If there are projects that are the best, there are projects that can be analyzed in detail, which is better than what we want now." Xu Yingzhu said.
"Of course, of course, I just hope to reach a consensus in the general direction, welcome to communicate at any time."
Old Song turned his head and asked, "What do you think of Mr. Xu?"
"I agree. If you can participate, you must participate." Mr. Xu said.
"Okay, that's it for today. By the way, is there any shopping in the movie market?"
"Sure, but I haven't found a good film yet."
"I will go tomorrow too, see you then."
"Ok, bye!"
"Bye!"
Zhang Guoshi and Zhang Ziyi were socializing elsewhere, only to see Xu Fei chatting with a few inexplicable people, not caring about the so-called party.
Until the group broke up, the party was over.
When Zhang Guoshi was about to call him, the guy waved his hand and went out with Lao Song again.
…………
"Asian filmmakers often have a sense of inferiority, Hollywood is the most powerful, as if that is a beacon.
If domestic films can be released in the United States, not to mention the box office, just the release is enough for them to rejoice.
You can work hard as a goal, but the reality is very difficult. It is good to have one in ten years. Our problem is to ignore the surrounding market, that is, Pan-Asia.
With a population of 200-300 million, there is a certain amount of cultural commonality, what a great wasteland!
When they didn't understand, they seized the opportunity. Although it was a co-production, the pace followed us. "
In the hotel room, the two had an encrypted chat.
Lao Song became humbly listening, and asked, "The pace follows us. Isn't it easy to achieve?"
"Of course it's not easy. Hong Kong films were once the pinnacle of Asia. Why? Because other places lag behind.
Therefore, we must be ahead of our minds, be able to come up with good scripts, and strong financial strength. "
"I understand what you mean."
Lao Song has been undercover for many years and his ideological level has improved by leaps and bounds: "Your plan!"
"Haha, this name is good!"
Xu Fei laughed and said, "Don't talk about cultural invasion. So to be more honest, it is to make money in partnership, it's just us."
"Yes, you have a lot of trumpets." Old Song agreed.
After all, he has fallen in love with the excitement.
Now that the undercover is not over, and there are new tasks, I just feel that following Mr. Xu, that is capable of literary and military skills, which is different.
Not only eat, drink and have fun, but also Xueyue Fenghua.
