tearjerker director

Chapter 503 If you lose your conscience, you can't buy it back with money!
The release of "Su Yuan" on Hong Kong Island was handed over to Galaxy Entertainment on Hong Kong Island.

It is tentatively scheduled to be released simultaneously with the mainland at the end of June.

As far as the promotion time is concerned, it is actually relatively short, but in terms of the popularity of the Cannes Film Festival, this can be regarded as striking while the iron is hot.

In fact, in the mainland, the effect of watching the film is not very good.

Representatives of many theaters said that the movie is a good movie, but although the ending of the movie is considered a relatively good ending, the overall feeling of the whole movie will still look depressing after watching it.

For this reason, in terms of filming, although Li Yi and Palme d'Or are much better than ordinary literary films, compared to films like "The Truman Show", it is not a little bit worse.

A good movie doesn't have to be a hit.

Hong Kong Island is similar, but although this movie is unlikely to be as popular as Li Yi's past movies, compared to other literary movies, the treatment can be regarded as very generous.

At the reception held by the boss of Galaxy Entertainment, Li Yi still needs to show some face.

Moreover, Huang Zhenming, the boss of Galaxy Entertainment, is considered a veteran filmmaker in Hong Kong Island. He is different from other companies in that Huang Zhenming is a director, and later he established his own film company with his friends.

Even until now, Huang Zhenming is still active in the film industry.

And this time "Su Yuan" was handed over to Galaxy Entertainment for distribution, and Huang Zhenming personally called to invite Li Yi, and said that everyone in Hong Kong Island wanted to meet Li Yi, a great director who has won glory for the country and Hong Kong Island filmmakers.

Therefore, it is difficult for Li Yi to refuse both public and private matters.

Arrived at the Mandarin Hotel where Galaxy Entertainment held the reception.

Huang Zhenming greeted Li Yi personally at the door, which was enough to give Li Yi face.

"Director Li, haha! Hong Kong Island is lucky to have a filmmaker like you in this era! Best at Oscar, best at Cannes, sharp!" Huang Zhenming said with admiration.

"Where, it's just luck!" Li Yi said lightly.

He doesn't mean to be modest, in fact, both Oscar and Cannes can be said to be lucky.

Especially Oscar, that was really a surprise.

As for Cannes, it can only be said that everyone gets what they need. Cannes needs him to please the rising market of Huaguo, and also needs his influence and the gimmick of double egg yolks.

Otherwise, maybe you can win an award, but it will definitely not be so dramatic to win double egg yolks.

Of course, to Huang Zhenming's ears, that was humility.

It’s not that no one on Hong Kong Island has won the Cannes Palme d’Or, the three major European films, and Hong Kong Island filmmakers have won many, but there really is no Oscar.

Of course, regardless of whether he won the award or not, Li Yi's current achievements and status are indeed enough for Huang Zhenming to put on such a posture.

"Director Li, don't be too modest, even if there is an element of luck, it's enough strength!" Huang Zhenming said with a smile.

"Director Li, please come inside!" Huang Zhenming smiled and led the way.

Entering the main venue of the reception at the Mandarin Hotel, sure enough, there are many Hong Kong Island filmmakers and stars.

Li Yi also saw many old acquaintances, including old friends like Chen Weijie, and CEOs of other companies, such as Xiang Wenbin from Oriental Image, He Tiancheng from Hong Kong Star Entertainment, Zhang Lishuhua from Hong Kong Island TV, and so on.

I also saw veteran Hong Kong filmmakers such as Chen Han and Xu Zhaoyuan.

This time and the Hong Kong Island Film Awards earlier, it can be said that everyone's attitude is completely different.

At least, this time, Li Yi didn't see the disgusting Huang Disheng.

Moreover, everyone who saw Li Yi warmly came up to congratulate him.

"Director Li, Monkey Sailei! In Cannes, double egg yolks can be rounded by one person. This is the first time in film history!"

"Get the best in a row, sharp, sharp!"

"Congratulations to Director Li, you have the opportunity to cooperate more!"

Reach out and don't hit the smiling faces. Although Li Yi can't tell how many of these people are sincere and how many are hypocritical, but at least everyone seems to be very enthusiastic and polite on the surface.

This is also the reason why Li Yi usually doesn't particularly like to attend this kind of reception. Everyone is wearing masks and acting.

Of course, he can also laugh and scold, but that's not necessary, maybe he's not that free and easy.

In fact, this kind of reception does not have much nutrition, and most of them just provide a place for everyone to communicate.

However, what Li Yi didn't expect was that Xiang Wenbin brought an unexpected guest.

"Director Li, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Xu Zhaokun, the chairman of the Xu Group. Mr. Xu, this is the director of our Hong Kong Island Light, Li Yi!"

However, Li Yi seemed a little puzzled. After all, it seemed a little baffling that Xiang Wenbin suddenly brought Xu Zhaokun from the Xu Group.

"Director Li, I've known you for a long time, it's a pleasure to meet you, a pleasure to meet you!" Xu Zhaokun smiled and stretched out his hands to shake hands with Li Yi.

"Hello Xu Sheng, hello you, who are Xu Sheng and Director Xu Zhaoyuan?" After all, there was only one word difference between the two names, so Li Yi still asked.

Xu Zhaokun didn't expect that Li Yi would think of Xu Zhaoyuan. He couldn't help but smiled and said, "Director Li, don't get me wrong. Although there is only one word difference between Director Xu and I, it's just a coincidence."

"So Xu Sheng came to find me on purpose?" Li Yi glanced at the people around him and asked with a smile.

After all, Xu's Group doesn't sound like a company in the film industry, so the other party deliberately came to the reception of this film industry and asked Xiang Wenbin to come forward to introduce him, which seems to have a clear purpose.

"Sure enough, I can't hide it from Director Li. That's right, someone Xu really wants to ask Director Li for help." Xu Zhaokun said.

"I don't know what it is?" Li Yi had a faint guess in his heart. After all, the other party was introduced to Wen Bin, and Wen Bin had previously offered [-] million guarantees for the release of "Suyuan", and later increased the price Fifteen million buyout.

After being rejected, he didn't say anything. It seems that the person behind this is probably Xu Zhaokun.

Then it is self-evident what the other party is looking for.

"This doesn't seem like a place to talk, can you ask Director Li to move?" Xu Zhaokun was clearly prepared.

"That's unnecessary, Xu Sheng can speak directly if he has anything to say." Li Yi said lightly.Although it's just a guess, Li Yi is basically sure that it's almost the same.

Xu Zhaokun didn't expect Li Yi to be so shameless. However, he had something to ask for, so he squeezed a smile on his face and said, "Alright, Director Li, can the movie "Su Yuan" be postponed?"

"It seems that Dongfang Image was entrusted by Xu Sheng to buy out the distribution rights of "Suyuan" in Hong Kong Island?" Li Yi said lightly.

"That's right, it's just rejected by Director Li. If Director Li thinks it's not enough, he can ask for a price, but it's just a postponement. I think it's just a matter of effort for Director Li." Xu Zhaokun looked at Li Yi and said.

"Yeah, it's just a little effort, and it can add a windfall. How much can Xu Sheng give? Ten or twenty million? Fifty million? One hundred million?"

"But Mr. Xu, you have lost your conscience. How much can you buy it back?" Li Yi asked again before Xu Zhaokun could speak.
