If you are asked to make a graduation film, you will win the Golden Bear Award?

"Don't be polite, everyone, treat it as your own home." Liu Ruyu asked everyone to eat fruit, "I will come down soon after washing up."

Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, and Liu Shishi helped Liu Ruyu, calling Aunt Liu very affectionately. They all knew in their hearts that Aunt Liu's advice was particularly important for who could be Director Lu's future wife.

Of course, there are not only the four little actresses, but also Martian female artists such as Tong Liyan, Gao Yuanyuan, Li Bingbing, Liu Wei, etc., although Director Lu dotes on the four minor actors.

But it doesn't mean that other female artists don't have opportunities, but they don't want to give up and are scrambling to perform.

As for the male artists of Mars Film and Television, Wang Baoqiang, Huang Bo, Huang Xiaoming, Chen Kun, Deng Chao and others found a place to stand.

The main reason is that there are not enough chairs in the hall.

Don't dare to sit.

Many big names from the mainland film industry came today, as well as famous directors.

Although everyone is now a well-known mainland actor, in today's event, the number of celebrities is still too small.

Not to mention.

Today, Han Shanping from Huaguo Film Group and Ren Zhonglun from Shanghai Film Group came over.

One north and one south.

An absolute boss in the Chinese film industry.

"Mr. Ren, you came all the way from Shanghai to Peking to pay Director Lu a New Year's greetings. I'm afraid Director Lu won't be able to bear this feeling." Han Shanping said in a joking tone.

"I happened to have something to do when I came to Peiping, so I came over to wish Director Lu a happy New Year." Ren Zhonglun was in a particularly good mood.

The movie "The Wind" finally made 4.89 million box office in the Mainland.

It is an absolute hit.

At present, in the mainland film market, only director Lu can earn more than 4 million for a single movie.

Since "Let the Bullets Fly", Director Lu has never directed a movie with a revenue of less than 4 million.

He has become the most successful director in the mainland, and of course the most successful director in the world. Last year, he was named Lu Chennian of the Year in Film by many well-known media in the world.

As for the movie "The Wind", which was a big hit, the spy film and TV series became very popular.

The most important scene of the spy war must be the magical city during the Republic of China.

It also makes the Magic City Film and Television City a sought-after place for film and television companies.

Many domestic film and television companies have begun to rent the Magic City Studios to shoot film and television works, and the rental prices have also risen. After all, many film crews have to wait to use it.

There is also tourism revenue.

When the spy movie and TV series that are currently being filmed are released, the Magic City Film and Television City will definitely be very popular, and the tickets will be a good income.

Rental fees and ticket revenue can bring a good income to Shanghai Film Group.

Ren Zhonglun thought that cooperating with Director Lu and Mars Film this time was the right thing for Shanghai Film Group to do.

"Mr. Ren, it turns out that you just stopped by to pay New Year greetings. I thought you came all the way from Shanghai to pay Director Lu a New Year's greeting and discuss important matters." Han Shanping kept speaking in a joking tone.

"No, I just stopped by." Ren Zhonglun came to Peiping this time to discuss the cooperation plan for the new year with Lu Chen.

Mars Film and Television is currently producing a TV series version of "The Wind".

Of course, this is not the last spy film and television work of Mars Film and Television.

There will be more to come.

Then we will need Magic City Film and Television City.

Magic City Film and Television City will definitely take priority over Mars Film and Television's works.

Shanghai Film Group needs excellent works produced by Mars Film and Television, which will lead to the popular spy film and television genre.

"Mr. Ren, I heard that many of your Shanghai Film Group's cinemas were sold to Jupiter Cinemas?" Han Shanping asked pretending to be unintentional, "What's the matter? The theater business is not doing well. This is a good business where you just sit and divide your money. ."

I want to explore Ren Zhonglun’s tone.

During this period, Lu Chen had close contact with Ren Zhonglun.

I always feel that the two of them are making big moves.

Han Shanping doesn't want to fall behind, even though Huaguo Film Group is very strong now.

Before, it was so strong that no one could challenge it, but now there is Mars Film and Television.

Moreover, the Martian film and television background is stronger, and Director Lu can talk to the boss. Last year's "The Wind" made the boss very happy again, and the mainstream media even praised Director Lu.

People's Daily, the largest circulation newspaper, even used the headline on its front page.

The title is quite explosive.

#华国 in the new era!Director of the new era! #
In the article, he first talked about China's economic development achievements, and then talked about Director Lu's movies, metaphorically speaking, Director Lu's movies shocked the world's audiences step by step.

Just like China's economic growth and national income, it also shocked the world.

Talk about tying Hua Guo and Lu Chen together.

This shows the importance attached to Director Lu above.

Therefore, Han Shanping wanted to use the state-owned status of Huaguo Film Group to dominate Mars Film and Television, which was simply not feasible, plus the higher-ups strongly supported private companies.

The higher authorities also want to launch strong and well-known private companies to attract foreign investment and let foreign investors see the good business environment in the country.

In the film industry, Mars Film and Television is definitely a leading private enterprise.

The status of Lu Chen, the new godfather of Chinese-language movies, has already surpassed that of himself, the old godfather of movies.

"Mr. Han, are you so suddenly concerned about our theater chain of Shanghai Film Group?" Ren Zhonglun is also a good person and knows that the other party is talking.

State-owned film-related company.

[-]. North China Film Group.

Yinan Shanghai Film Group.

But in terms of competition, Huaguo Film Group has always been in the limelight, and now it is Shanghai Film Group's turn.

"It's okay not to care. Our film group has many theaters and has the largest theater resources in the country." Han Shanping thought about this first place, fearing that it would be surpassed by Jupiter Cinemas.

Jupiter Cinemas is now the number one private cinema chain, and it won’t be long before it becomes the real number one.

"Mr. Han, you also know." Ren Zhonglun sighed, "Although the theater chains sit and divide the money, the theater chains have not had an easy time at all in recent years. In the past few years, the theater chains were all losing money. That is, now in mainland China Director Lu has made the movie market popular, and theater chains are having a better time."

"Now that the good times are coming, is it unreasonable to sell theater chains?" Han Shanping always felt that Lu Chen and Ren Zhonglun had something big going on.

And he is hiding it from himself, but he has to understand it clearly.

"In case the market fails again in the future, this is unstable." Ren Zhonglun said seriously: "Shanghai Film Group has to clear out some unstable businesses. Besides, we are also short of money, so we can cash out. With this money, we can invest in more profitable businesses. in the industry.”

Ren Zhonglun sells theater chains.

It is to reach a consensus on cooperation with Lu Chen, which is also the requirement of Mars Film and Television.

Han Shanping was about to make another story.

At this time, many people in the hall looked towards the second floor.

Lu Chen walked up from the second floor.

"Director Lu!" The Martian artists stood up straight and called respectfully.

In the Mars system.

Lu Chen is the absolute big boss and the absolute leader.

Everyone in the Mars department respects Director Lu, and no one dares to disobey Director Lu's orders. Almost all of the popular artists in the Mars department are praised by Lu Chen alone, and Lu Chen is a blessing to them.

"Mr. Han, Mr. Ren." Lu Chen came down from the second floor in formal attire and stretched out his hand to hold it. "It's my fault that you two big guys are here. I should go with you to pay New Year's greetings." "Director Lu, both of you are here. They are friends, no matter who they are." Han Shanping came over to see what kind of cooperation Lu Chen had with the Film Group.

Another thing is to take a look at Director Lu’s plan for the new year.

Huaguo Film Group really wants to cooperate with Mars Film and Television. This is a guaranteed deal.

"Director Lu, in the new year, I wish you to take your career to the next level." Ren Zhonglun's eyes changed slightly, indicating that the two of them would have a chat alone later.

"Thank you, everyone is the same." Lu Chen laughed happily.

Afterwards, we chatted with the big guys in the film industry present.

"Brother Lu!" Wang Baoqiang called to him when he saw Director Lu finishing chatting with the big guys, and trotted over quickly.

"We performed well last year." Lu Chen patted Wang Baoqiang on the shoulder to show encouragement, ""My Brother Is Shunliu", which you played the leading role in, was the most watched TV series at the end of the year, and ranked among the TV series in terms of clicks on Saturn Video. top ten."

Saturn Video's advertising revenue has soared recently.

Because Saturn Video has many classic dramas.

Especially when we first cooperated with TVB, all old TVB dramas were released on Saturn Video.

Of course the most important reason is the new drama.

Every month on Saturn Video, new dramas are launched, attracting countless users.

Advertisers have also taken a fancy to the huge number of users of Saturn Video, and have begun to invest in advertising on Saturn Video. Currently, the largest advertiser of Saturn Video is Alibaba Group.

Liu Ruyu is in charge, and Mars Film and Television is investing. He will continue to invest in Alibaba and increase the shareholding ratio. Part of the investment will be used for advertising expenses, and advertising will be invested in Saturn Video.

Alibaba's subsidiary Taobao has also become more and more famous due to a large amount of advertising, and more and more young people choose to shop on Taobao.

It’s a win-win situation for both companies, and both companies get what they want.

"Director Lu, it's all thanks to you." Wang Baoqiang said with a smile on his face.

With another masterpiece, there is nothing wrong with following Brother Lu. Now he is the most famous young actor in the mainland.

"What's my credit? I didn't participate in this drama." Lu Chen pretended to have a straight face, "And who did you learn the flattery skills from? Baoqiang, you were not like this before. And you learned the flattery skills from me?" No way either.”

"Director Lu, I..." Wang Bao was so strong that he became nervous.

"Okay, I'm kidding you." Lu Chen patted his shoulder, "My aunt has arranged for a restaurant. We will go there to have dinner and drink some wine, and then arrange a girl for you."

"Brother Lu, I'm leaving first." Wang Baoqiang said and ran away, his face turning red. Unlike Brother Lu, there were many actresses around him. Wang Baoqiang also understood that he did not have the charm of Director Lu.

In the hall, Lin Zhiling, like other female artists, looked at Director Lu. When she saw Director Lu waving to her after chatting with Wang Baoqiang, she was immediately excited. She straightened her hair and clothes and hurried over, "Director Lu!"

"How are the preparations for "Red Cliff" going?" In the first two months, Lu Chen was busy with the Olympics and "The Wandering Earth" and had no time to pay attention to the works produced by the company.

"Director Wu Ershan said that filming can officially start after the Chinese New Year." Lin Zhiling looked at the people in the hall and said, "Director Lu, how about I go to the second floor and give you a detailed report on the work of the movie "Red Cliff"."

"..." Lu Chen was stunned for a moment and went up to the second floor. What was he thinking? There were so many people in the hall. It was obvious that he and Lin Zhiling went to the second floor. "Just say it here."

I asked Lin Zhiling about "Red Cliff".

The main reason is that Wu Ershan is not here today. Wu Ershan is still at home and has not come over.

For the movie "Red Cliff", Mars Film and Television invested 1.8 million, which is considered a big project.

You can rest assured if you leave it to Wu Ershan. Wu Ershan has a blockbuster directing classic. "The King of Kung Fu" directed by Wu Ershan has a larger investment.

Now when Lu Chen asked, Lin Zhiling answered.

Lin Zhiling became anxious when she saw Lu Chen was about to leave after asking, "Director Lu, I have a few more opinions about the movie "Red Cliff" and I want to talk to you alone."

"If you have an idea for a movie, go find the film's director Wu Ershan." Lu Chen said and left.

I also have ideas for movies.

I'm afraid it's because I have thoughts about myself and my purpose is not pure.

"Minister, I have already booked the restaurant. We can set off soon. The cars are already waiting outside." At this time, Liu Ruyu came over and informed that with so many people, it was impossible to do it at home, so they had to go to the restaurant.

"Auntie, you arrange this matter." Lu Chen chatted with the Martian artist again, paying attention to the filming situation of the company's film and television works.

Waited for the eighth day of the lunar month.

You have to formally put yourself into work.

Work on the Olympic Games, post-production work on "The Wandering Earth".

And when "Red Cliff" starts shooting, I have to go and watch it. After all, I am the director producer of the movie "Red Cliff".

……

December 2007, 3

He Bei Province, the crew of the movie "Red Cliff"

"Eyeliner, give me another look." Lin Zhiling was sitting in the dressing room and asked the girl from the film's makeup team.

It's not just to show a more beautiful version of myself in the movie.

But today, Director Lu will come to the film crew.

Lin Zhiling wanted Director Lu to see the most beautiful version of herself, and women should look after themselves.

Maybe Director Lu will arrange for himself to star in a movie he directs as soon as he is happy.

Director Lu's films are very different from other directors.

Li Bingbing joined Mars Film and Television. In his first film, he starred as the second female lead in "The King of Kung Fu" with an investment of more than 5000 million US dollars. His fame did not increase much, but in "The Wind" directed by Director Lu himself, his popularity reached A new level.

Many audiences and film critics spoke highly of Li Bingbing's acting skills in the movie "The Wind" and said that Li Bingbing would be nominated for many film festival awards with "The Wind".

Li Bingbing also gained a large number of fans with the movie "The Wind". This movie can be regarded as raising the status of film and television to a new level.

Therefore, Lin Zhiling also wants to star in a movie directed by Director Lu, which will greatly improve herself and gain huge attention.

Other crew members were discussing Director Lu.

Speaking of Director Lu, everyone has pride on their faces.

As a Mars employee, how can you not be proud that the big boss is so outstanding?

Speaking of working in Mars Film and Television, I have had close contact with Director Lu, and he is the envy of others.

"What do you think the Olympic opening ceremony directed by Director Lu will be like?" The crew started talking about the Olympics.

There are now less than five months left before the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

Nowadays, the whole country is promoting the Olympic Games. As the chief director of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games, Director Lu has also received great attention.

Director Lu often appears in the news broadcast by major TV stations.

"Currently, not much is revealed about the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. I wonder what it will be like?" At this point, his tone changed, "But I believe that this August will be the most classic opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, and it will also be unprecedented. An Olympic opening ceremony because the chief director is Director Lu."

This statement was echoed by many staff members.

Director Lu’s ability has long been recognized by the global market.

When Director Lu was chosen as the chief director of the Olympic Games, they must have wanted to show the people around the world a different, grand and stunning opening ceremony.

Nowadays, domestic people have very high expectations for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. I believe that with Director Lu’s ability, the opening ceremony of the Peking Olympic Games will be deeply remembered by people around the world.

"Stop chatting, Director Lu will be here soon." Wu Ershan came over at this time and informed the crew.

If it weren't for Director Lu, he wouldn't like the welcome ceremony.

Wuershan had to organize a welcome ceremony on the set.

"Director Lu, here we come." Lin Zhiling looked at herself in the mirror. She looked particularly perfect and beautiful. She quickly stood up and was the first to greet Director Lu. (End of chapter)
