I'm not just a director

Fatty Yu acted quickly. As soon as he returned here, he immediately sent someone to deliver the cooperation contract three days later.

Jiang Peian asked the legal department, Su Qing and others to come over and study the contract.

"Judging from this contract, there are no problems with any regulations."

After reading the report from the Ministry of Justice, he reported it to Jiang Peian.

Jiang Pei'an couldn't help but be careful. Of course, cooperation must be cautious.

Are there many artists who will be cheated due to contract matters in the future?

If the boat capsizes in the gutter, he won't have anywhere to cry.

Su Qing picked up the thick stack of contracts and read it carefully, and said with a smile:
"Bernard's side should have had it carefully reviewed by legal personnel, otherwise there would not have been such a formal contract."

Jiang Pei'an nodded and said:
"Bernard's intention is to hold a signing ceremony. Xinghuo and Bernard will reach a strategic cooperation, and by the way, the film we will make together will be announced at the signing ceremony."

Su Qing wondered:
"Are you so anxious? The key is to announce the news before the script is even released."

Jiang Pei'an smiled and said:
“Lao Su is a marketing person, and he values ​​this very much.

Never mind when the movie is made, never mind when the next movie is made.

Anyway, this banner has been launched, it can cause a sensation to some extent and attract everyone's attention. "

"Haha, this is quite in line with the character of the boss."

In fact, what Jiang Pei'an hasn't said yet is that it's not just marketing considerations, Fatty Yu is really anxious.

Seeing the cooperation between other companies in full swing and news about major works coming out one after another, Bernard could only watch with greed.

If he doesn't make something, Fatty Yu will die of anxiety.

From Jiang Peian's perspective, 2004 was indeed a year of explosive growth in film production.

The total domestic film production this year reached 210.

Although there are only 25 films that actually dare to be taken to the cinema, it is already much better than in previous years.

Among them, we can see some leading figures in the domestic film industry making breakthrough attempts.

Some new directors also show a certain degree of vigor and innovative spirit.

For example, this year, Feng Xiaogang released his acclaimed movie "A World Without Thieves".

Lu Chuan also showed his "Kekexili" without comment. This movie is indeed good, but the director himself... haha.

Li Shaohong's "Baby in Love" is a controversial film in the Chinese film industry.

As a member of the fifth generation of directors, Li Shaohong used a unique way to write about the tragic fate of an extremely sensitive little girl named "Baby" who was deeply depressed and unable to escape the shadow.

The film's strong tragic color and tortuous and obscure expression express the director's deep concern for contemporary female consciousness.

Of course, this movie was later criticized miserably...

"Warm" by Huo Jianqi, "Ambush from Flying Daggers" by Lao Mouzi and "Please Close Your Eyes after Dark" by A Gan...

These are all good movies released this year. It can be said that except for "Please Close Your Eyes When Dark", the above movies are basically necessary subjects for the art exams of future film-related majors.

It really pokes holes in the art students’ exam questions.

It is worth mentioning that when Lao Mouzi's "House of Flying Daggers" was released, it was the most noisy entertainment event in the domestic entertainment industry during the Chinese New Year.

Some people later commented that the complexity and specificity of this film are difficult to describe.

But from the perspective of the movie itself, it can only be said that Lao Mouzi has once again deeply disappointed those fans who were already disappointed with "Hero".

Moreover, "House of Flying Daggers" is not comparable to Hollywood blockbusters. With Zhang Weipin's unremitting efforts, it did not use the healthy model of normal business operations at all.

There were so many abnormal means that the final work was seriously out of shape.

Of course, at this point in time, Lao Mouzi should not be concerned about this matter. He is still busy filming his "House of Flying Daggers", which wants to copy the successful example of "Hero"...

As Jiang Peian expected, Bernard could not wait to spread the news of the cooperation between the two companies.

The day after the contract was signed, relevant reports broke the news.

"Recently, two domestic film and television companies have cooperated to make movies. One of them is a well-known domestic director with outstanding achievements and is in the limelight, and the other is a theater king. The cooperation between these two parties can be called a powerful alliance."

"Breaking news, Director Jiang's new movie is coming soon. It is said that this time the challenge is different, a big production!"

“This year’s movie market is exciting, Feng Xiaogang lost to Jiang Pei’an in the Spring Festival.

Now Mou is full of energy and wants to have a showdown with Jiang Pei'an. This time it is a real big production, and stars from all walks of life are helping out.

Jiang Peian is also secretly preparing for a new movie..."

The news spread all over the world, making the already lively March even more exciting.

In the movie "Mobile Phone", the protagonist Yan Shouyi is played by Ge You.

In the film, he remains a talk show host who has an extramarital affair after getting a cell phone.

After watching the movie, netizens projected the role of Yan Shouyi onto Xiao Cui.

The variety show hosted by Yan Shouyi in the play is called "Tell the Truth" hosted by Xiao Cui.

For a time, there were many ridiculing sounds in Xiao Cui's life, which had a great impact on his life.

Originally, it should not be so difficult for netizens to associate Yan Shouyi and Xiao Cui in the movie.

Even if there is, it's not that obvious.

Fortunately, Feng Xiaogang met Xiao Cui in private before the release of "Cell Phone".

Coincidentally, the two were photographed communicating together by the news media.

Therefore, after the release of "Mobile Phone", netizens continued to project Yan Shouyi on Xiao Cui.

And Xiao Cui has always been unable to let go of this incident. He felt that Feng Xiaogang's appointment with him before the movie was released was a trap deliberately set by Feng Xiaogang in order to expand its influence and increase the popularity of the movie.

So after the film was released, Xiao Cui posted a [-]-word article angrily criticizing "Cell Phone".

Therefore, throughout the Chinese New Year period, the entertainment industry is very lively.

In addition to Jiang Pei'an's village evening, which contributed a tear-jerking song to everyone and drew people's attention to the Folk Minor Art Troupe, there was also the war of words between Xiao Cui and Feng Xiaogang.

The matter fell into disuse until six years later, in 2010.

Feng Xiaogang and Wang Zhonglei were guests on "Xiao Cui Talks". The relationship between Xiao Cui and Feng Xiaogang, which had been deadlocked for seven years, has eased.Xiao Cui said frankly, "When some problems are not so easy to solve, you can put them aside. As time goes by, and as you get older, everyone becomes rational, and it will be too late to solve them."

What Xiao Cui said was very high-level, but neither the audience watching the show nor Feng and Wang who were on the show expected what happened next.

Sure enough, not long after, Xiao Cui single-handedly defeated the heroine of "Cell Phone".

Prior to this, Fan Xiaopang received a national-related honor.

Xiao Cui then caught up and mocked Fan Xiaopang and the relevant units.

In fact, Xiao Cui not only disses Fan Xiaopang, but it can be seen from Xiao Cui's questioning that he does not agree with Fan Xiaopang's connection with the spirit of the country, and is even very disgusted.

It was also revealed that Fan Xiaopang will continue to play the heroine of "Mobile Phone 2", and that the film's director Feng Xiaogang and screenwriter Liu Zhenyun have both fallen.

Xiao Cui aims the cannon barrel at Fan Xiaopang, which makes people inevitably think of Xiao Cui actually dancing with sword in Xiangzhuang, aiming at Peigong.

Later, some netizens said that Xiao Cui had only one real purpose:
Let "Mobile Phone 2" be stillborn and fight to the end with "Mobile Phone".

The impact of Fan Xiaopang's incident was also very bad, and even caused a wave of purge in the entire entertainment industry.

Looking back at what he said to Feng Xiaogang and Wang Zhonglei later, the meaning was different.

Although Jiang Pei'an has friendship with Fan Xiaopang and Feng Xiaogang, Jiang Pei'an still thinks highly of Xiao Cui in this matter.

What would you do if something or someone pushed you to the point of mental breakdown, depression?
When it comes to repaying evil with kindness, many people will immediately look at this issue from the moral high ground and from the perspective of nature being inherently good.

But there is another sentence that many people don’t know... How to repay kindness!
Repay kindness with kindness, repay grievance with straightness!
I treat you well and treat you as your friend, but if you slap me in front of me and insult me, who can still be a good person?

If you are good to me, I will be good to you. If you dare to offend again without repentance, I will hit you to death with a brick!

Xiao Cui thought you were a friend and participated in your film creation, but it turned out that your film came out and insinuated it to me, which affected my life!
Life is not a matter of nonsense, and it will be settled in the end.

At most, it can be regarded as a lesson learned, but in the end, you have another "Mobile Phone 2" to shoot.

The day before, I sent a private message on WeChat to say that the movie’s name had been changed to “Circle of Friends.”

As a result, "Mobile Phone 2" was released the next day...

Therefore, the entertainment industry is noisy, and we will appear on stage after you sing.

The matter between Xiao Cui and Feng Xiaogang had just come to an end, and the matter between Jiang Peian and Bernard was put on the table again.

Of course, this is a matter of strategic cooperation between Spark and Bernard, unlike their messy worries.

Bernard has been urging Spark, and both parties quickly held a signing ceremony to announce it.

Jiang Peian also knew the urgency of his allies and immediately announced the signing ceremony.

Although Bernard was founded more than ten years earlier than Spark, in fact, its influence is not as great as Spark.

Especially after experiencing the two film and television dramas "Star You" and "Pumping Heart", Star Fire's influence has skyrocketed in the eyes of the audience.

Therefore, when the news came out, the viewers who had been paying attention to Xinghuo became excited.

"The announcement said that we will sign a contract with Bernard to become a strategic partner? I would like to ask, who is this Bernard, and what qualifications does he have to cooperate with our Spark?"

In fact, there are many people who have such questions. Bernard does not have much contact with the audience in China nowadays.

After all, as a distributor, when watching a movie, any viewer will notice who is the distributor and who is the producer, and who will care where they watch the movie.

Even Spark is only known to the public because of Jiang Peian, a national-level director, and because he has produced two high-quality works.

Bernard really came into the public eye when it was launched and produced and released movies such as "Operation Red Sea", "Heroes of Fire", "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" and "The Grandmaster".

Of course, the proprietress Jin Qingqing also attracted a lot of attention to Bernard.

"Let's just say, what does this strategic partnership mean? I know Bernard is the film distributor. Does this mean that Director Jiang's films will be available for large-scale viewing in the future?"

"I don't care about strategic cooperation. I only care about whether Director Jiang will release another new work? I want to see it!"

"Yes, this year has passed. Director Jiang still doesn't plan to start work? Otherwise, my movie tickets this year will be donated to Lao Mouzi's new movie!"

"Hey, don't tell me, the film market this year is really lively, with many new and old directors having works."

Amid everyone's heated discussion, the signing ceremony between Spark and Bernard finally came.

On the day of the ceremony, Fatty Yu invited many heavyweight guests.

This includes his old leader, Han Shanping, the vice chairman of China Film Group.

"Oh, Mr. Yu is so proud that he even invited you over."

After seeing Han Shanping, Jiang Pei'an took the initiative to come over and talk to him.

"I mean, you kid, you didn't even say hello in advance for such a big thing."

Han Shanping pointed at Jiang Peian and cursed with a smile.

Jiang Pei'an smiled and said:
"Even if I don't inform you, our President Yu will report this matter to you immediately. I don't want to bother you all the time."

"Slippery, you ran from China Film to Bernard, why bother? Why don't you just stay at China Film? We are no worse than Bernard, right?"

Han Shanping said with a smile.

"Hey, my old leader, you are poaching in front of me."

Fatty Yu appeared out of nowhere and said with a pale face.

He was really anxious. If Jiang Pei'an was moved by Han Shanping's words and turned around and fell into the arms of China Film Group Corporation, then his hard work during this period would be in vain.

Seeing the fat man's anxious look, Han Shanping said with a smile:

"I'm just going to tell you a few words. Why are you so anxious? I'm telling you, this kid is very naughty. It's a good idea to cooperate with him."

Fatty Yu felt relieved when he saw that Jiang Pei'an didn't speak.

Hearing Han Shanping's words, Fatty Yu smiled helplessly, "Old leader, you are too late. I have already suffered a big loss by cooperating with him."

But now he has no choice but to cooperate. If Bernard wants to further develop in the film and television industry, he must have a strong assistant like Jiang Peian as a teammate.

Jiang Peian smiled and said:
"Director Han, you are not being honest. No matter where I make a movie, I am not a soldier under your command. I can also go abroad. Besides, Mr. Yu has a close relationship with you. We also It’s not too far away.”

Hearing Jiang Pei'an's words, several people laughed. At this time, the preparations on the stage had been completed.

The host also began to invite the heads of the two companies to the stage.

After Jiang Peian and Fatty Yu greeted Han Shanping, they walked to the stage together... (End of this chapter)
