Chapter 404 Foreigners' lackeys?
The two broke up and it was officially put on the table. Zhang Weiping complained, and Zhang Yimou's silence was golden.

"I asked myself, in the past 20 or [-] years, I haven't done anything to be sorry for Yimou. Now he wants to leave the heart picture, I don't understand."

"I used to be very optimistic about Cheng Yu'an, a young man. I thought he was talented and willing to work hard. As long as he worked hard for a few years, he would definitely have a place in the domestic market. But I didn't expect him to go to the United States to start a company and work as a comprador. Americans make domestic money! Such a person, such a company, I think it is very necessary to block it! You can’t treat him specially just because he won two awards.”

This is a method that people of their generation are very good at. If they are reasonable, they can only go online.

Some people really believe that Cheng Yu'an is a comprador!

And there are a large number of people who believe this kind of talk.

Don't doubt, Zhang Weiping also has diehard fans.

Cheng Yuan's film projects are all public, and some data can be easily found.

So he was turned over by Zhang Weiping's fans:

"He is the biggest investor in "Inception". The domestic box office of this film is as high as 6 million. After excluding the cost and publicity, his personal income is at least [-] million in domestic revenue alone, not to mention the money earned by this film overseas. But the money he earned was not used for domestic movie investment, but was invested in American movies and the U.S. stock market.”

"He is a guest of the Big Six in Hollywood. He uses his position in the domestic market and his familiarity with policies to provide consulting services to Hollywood production companies, so that Hollywood films can earn more box office in the domestic market."

"He has a very close relationship with DreamWorks Animation. It can be said that he is half the boss of DreamWorks Animation. Last year's global hit "Despicable Me" was also produced by his Hollywood animation company. He is keen to invest in Hollywood animation. Indifference to domestic animation."

"This kind of person is not a comprador, but a lackey of foreigners!"

Then, what they called "compradors" and "foreigners' lackeys" appeared on the news at seven o'clock the next day.

Cheng Yu'an accompanied relevant leaders to inspect Tiangong Yicai, and the leaders fully affirmed Tiangong Yicai's investment and achievements in film and television special effects.

"my country's film and television market is booming, and high-quality film and television dramas of various types and themes are emerging in an endless stream, and the audience's demand for watching movies is becoming more and more abundant. Based on the market, Tiangong Yicai seizes development opportunities, increases technology research and development, and actively introduces foreign companies. Advanced equipment and production concepts. At present, Tiangong Yicai has developed into a large-scale special effects production company integrating visual effect scheme design and production, virtual shooting, and sound effect production. support."

This wave of advertisements was very effective, and the abuse of Cheng Yu'an on the Internet was much less.

Since the turmoil broke out, Tong Ju has deliberately comforted him, saying that the organization trusts him very much and asked him not to be disturbed by outside rumors.

Of course Cheng Yu'an was not bothered by this kind of thing, and he didn't even think it was a problem.

Tong Ju said before sending him away: "You are ready for these two days."

"What are you preparing for?"

"We're going to the United States in a few days to negotiate a new film import agreement. You go with the group, staff."

"Didn't we talk about it earlier?" The new film agreement has been discussed throughout the year, and the deadline is next year. I didn't expect it to be almost the end of the year, and the negotiation has not yet been finalized.

"The general framework has been negotiated, only a few details are missing. What the bureau means is that we should try our best to fight for what can be won. As long as the final signature has not been signed, there is still talk."

"Okay." Cheng Yu'an thought for a while and agreed to visit with the group.

In fact, he also knows this kind of historical event, and there is very little that he can intervene in.

"This is the draft agreement that has been negotiated so far. Take it back and have a look, and don't spread it."

"Don't worry, I still have this awareness."

After leaving the General Administration, Cheng Yuan didn’t go home either. There was no one at home. His girlfriend joined the team of “BJ Meets Seattle” and is now in Vancouver. That’s right, most of the exterior scenes of “BJ Meets Seattle” were actually filmed in Vancouver.

Cheng Yu'an let go of the group's visit in advance, and went to the post-production team of "Alliance of Thieves".

In fact, even if he doesn't travel with the group, Cheng Yu'an will go to the United States in a few days. "Hunting" will be released during the awards season, and he will do public relations.

As for the simultaneous release in China, Cheng Yu'an doesn't pay much attention to it. It is impossible for this film to sell a high box office in China, and it will be released in November. With 11 million box office, Cheng Yu'an is very satisfied.

If there were only 2000 million in the end, Cheng Yu'an didn't complain.

Cheng Yu'an knew that "Hunting" had a very low chance of winning, but he still had to formulate a public relations strategy, otherwise it would be easy for people to gossip if you do nothing.

"Why is Harvey this fat man again this year?" Cheng Yu'an was discussing public relations strategy with Sarah, the vice president of production of a major film company.

"The Artist is very popular." Sarah was also very helpless, "Since the awards season started this year, Harvey has fallen out with film critics."

"Film critics say that he is a sensationalist, and "The Artist" is a film made to cater to the Oscars. The academy should beware of this kind of Oscar-customized film."

The average age of Oscar judges is over 60 years old, and most of them are white men. "The Artist" is simply a tailor-made gift for them.

Black and white, silent films, the golden age of Hollywood.

What better way to please an elderly person than to reminisce about the good old days?

On the other end of the phone, Sarah suggested: ""The Hunt" does not meet the taste of the Oscar judges. I think we should give up the best picture and best director. I think the best actor in public relations is more hopeful. Matthew is in Hollywood. Very well connected."

"Moreover, we can shift our energy to the Golden Globe Awards. The Foreign Press Association is willing to make trouble. Awarding the best film or best director to the Chinese will cause heated discussions in the public opinion. They are very willing to do such a thing."

Sarah on the other end of the phone laughed to herself.

"OK, Sarah, you are more familiar with Hollywood than I am, I will follow the arrangement."

Whether it's the Golden Globes or the Oscars, his attitude is still indifferent.

But the company wants him to take care of him.

Because the remote film and television will be listed next month, the current silent period does not allow the company to speak out, so Cheng Yu'an needs to toss outside.

If you can win the Golden Globes or even the Oscars, it will have an unexpected surprise boost to the company's stock price.

Not to mention licking hands, even if they are nominated and shortlisted, the company's publicity and distribution can be done much better.

Therefore, there are also disadvantages in listing the company. Cheng Yuan is not as free as before. He must be responsible for shareholders and do things that he is not so willing to do.
