Started as an independent producer in 1988

Chapter 79 Are you better than Chen Shiping? !

At the Beijing Airport, the wind and snow were so strong that people could not keep their eyes open.

Chen Shiping turned off the car before he could park it at the airport gate.

"What a broken car!"

Chen Shiping complained and jumped out of the driver's seat. The cars in the factory were all old antiques and broke down easily.

You must ask Song Zhuo to arrange a good car for you later.

Chen Shiping took out several boxes from the trunk. These were all Guan Zhilin's luggage.

She is going back to Xiangjiang today, New Year's Day is coming up in two days, and ATV is having a party.

At the boarding gate, Chen Shiping looked at Guan Zhilin who was a little reluctant and said: "I will come to the mainland often in the future. See you in Xiangjiang after New Year's Day."

"Will Amin come with you?" Guan Zhilin suddenly asked.

Chen Shiping shook his head and said, "If she doesn't go, I will be alone this time."

Guan Zhilin's eyes lit up slightly, but he quickly covered it up and said with some pity, "I still want to invite her to my home."

"Haha, I am the plenipotentiary." Chen Shiping joked and looked at the time and said: "The time is coming, hurry up and board the plane."

"Okay, see you in Xiangjiang in a few days." Guan Zhilin waved and walked into the security check channel.

In the office of Beijing Film Studio, Song Zhen was laughing so hard at the newspaper reports that his eyes were filled with laughter.

In other words, there were only him and Chen Shiping in the office, otherwise the factory director's airs would be gone.

[This is the new way of Kung Fu movies! 】

This is a newspaper report on Once Upon a Time, and it doesn’t mean much just from the title.

But it’s very interesting when combined with reports about the filming of Heroes of the Yellow River by West Film Studio last year.

The title of Yellow River Hero’s report at the time was [Kung Fu movies are going to take a new path! 】.

Now when the two reports are taken together, it is like pressing Xiying Studio’s face to the ground.

"Well written! These reporters still have a good eye!" Song Tao said with a laugh.

Chen Shiping just smiled. He was only concerned about whether the co-production department could be established before he went to Hong Kong.

"Before I go to Hong Kong, the co-production department must be established, otherwise I won't have a suitable status to carry out my activities in Hong Kong."

"The decision was made at a small meeting the day before yesterday." Song Tao patted Chen Shiping's knee and said, "We will officially announce it at the meeting the day after tomorrow."

"That's good." Chen Shiping felt relieved and then said with a smile, "Can you get me a car?"

Song Tao said grandly: "You can use the minibus as you like. I said hello."

"You are such a good leader!"

"Haha, you are also a good producer!"

After New Year's Day, the factory announced the establishment of a co-production department at the first meeting, and the person in charge of the co-production department was Chen Shiping!

It’s not easy to finally become Director Chen.

Just after the appointment, Chen Shiping hurried to Xiangjiang. This time he went to Xiangjiang not only to make Huang Feihong famous, but also to make achievements.

The achievement is not how many films we co-produce, but how we collaborate on co-productions now.

Xiangjiang cannot always be the leader, it is time to change.

Otherwise, no matter how many movies we co-produce, it will only be a wedding dress for others, which is not much of an achievement.

Change is the most important thing!

Chen Shiping's vision is not focused on the immediate few years, he is considering the long-term layout!

If in another ten years, Hong Kong filmmakers will still be arrogant when they come to the mainland, it’s okay if Director Chen Shiping doesn’t do it!

After arriving in Xiangjiang again, Chen Shiping no longer took a taxi to the hotel by himself, but was picked up by a special car.

In the car heading to Yindu, Chen Shiping looked at the scenery outside the car window. His mood at this time was completely different from the last time.

I was quite nervous when I came last time, but this time I was just excited!

Soon the car arrived in Yindu. Chen Shiping saw Dong Liao as soon as he got off the car. The two laughed and hugged each other as soon as they met.

An old man and a young man walked into Yindu like Wangnianjiao, and many staff nearby looked at them sideways. Mainly because I looked at that young figure and felt a little excited.

Are Z-movies finally on the rise?

"Once Upon a Time in Mainland China is very popular!" Dong Liao said with great excitement: "The newspapers in Xiangjiang have reported it. Is the box office really 20 million?"

Chen Shiping nodded and said, "Yes, based on the current box office, it is estimated to be at least 40 million!"

Director Liao nodded with emotion. The mainland market is still big.

Seeing that Director Liao was so happy, Chen Shiping didn't say anything bad to spoil his mood. The mainland's film market will soon shrink.

The problem with theater chains is too great, and soon those unit auditoriums and theaters will no longer serve as auxiliaries to movie theaters.

If professional theaters do not reform and do not have the funds to upgrade, the future prospects are very worrying.

Once Upon a Time has caught up with the good times like Shaolin Temple, otherwise there would be so many box office.

I hope that the success of Once Upon a Time this time can bring a bit of life to the theater chain. If one movie doesn’t work, then there will be a few more!

The mainland is such a big market, and almost everyone has the habit of watching movies, so they don’t believe that they can’t support theater chains!

We also need to fight against piracy! This is also the main reason affecting the market.

Chen Shiping felt that he was earning a salary of several hundred yuan and worrying about a billion dollars, and for a moment he felt a little funny.

But if it is done, a billion will be nothing.

Chen Shiping didn't stay in Yindu for too long. Yindu had already taken care of the release of Once Upon a Time in Hong Kong and East Asia, so he didn't need to worry about it.

Just wait for the money to be split.

Chen Shiping stayed at the Regent Hotel as last time, and then sat quietly in Diaoyutai until Yindu released the news, waiting for the film company in Xiangjiang to come to his door.

But Chen Shiping never expected that the first person to come to his door would be Wanwan Film Company!

Chen Shiping looked at the woman in front of him and had a very strange feeling in his heart, as if history was joking with him.

"Ms. Xu, why are you looking for me?"

Chen Shiping looked at Xu Feng in confusion. Shouldn't she go find Cheng Kaige?

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Look for you to cooperate."

"If I remember correctly, Ms. Xu herself is the producer."

"There is also a gap between producing and producing. I can't compare with Mr. Chen in this regard."

Chen Shiping raised his eyebrows. This was true. At least he wouldn't be cheated by Cheng Kaige's company and almost go bankrupt.

"I remember that Ms. Xu originally asked Cheng Kaige to be the director, right? Didn't it succeed?"

Xu Feng nodded. She went to find Cheng Kaige again this year, but still failed.

The original novel was also said to be rubbish by Cheng Kaige. This guy only wanted to make a classic, and he was probably stimulated by Zhang Yimo and Chen Shiping.

Xu Feng almost lost his temper. Cheng Kaige was even unmoved by such a high price.

She still dare not say this to Li Bihua, fearing that Li Bihua would not give her the copyright.

So she had no choice but to come to Chen Shiping this time.

Chen Shiping is now the director of the co-production department of Beijing Film Studio. It is the easiest way to ask him to cooperate and then let him solve the problem of Cheng Kaige!

No matter how awesome Cheng Kaige is, can he be better than Chen Shiping?

However, Xu Feng was also worried that Chen Shiping would not like the novel Farewell My Concubine.

She knew that Chen Shiping was still the most famous writer in the mainland.

His "Red Wall" is still the most popular novel in the mainland.

Xu Feng looked at Chen Shiping casually flipping through the novel, gritted his teeth and said directly: "Mr. Chen, my planned investment amount for this movie is 40 million, but it can actually be 38 million!"

Chen Shiping raised his eyebrows, closed the book and said, "What a good novel."

　Originally, I could earn a few more coins by writing 20 words, but in order to prevent people from jumping in to subscribe, I deleted it. I've already done this, so don't skip.
