Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Yuan Qiaoqiao was rummaging through boxes at home and was packing her luggage to join the filming of "The Granary of the World". Zhu Guiyun, who was joining the set with her, uncharacteristically did not help and did not pack his own luggage. He followed her and followed her out, wanting to  He stopped talking.

    Stuffing three bottles of sunscreen into the suitcase was not enough. She took two more bottles of sunscreen spray and two sun umbrellas, put them in the suitcase, and looked up at her godmother who had been giving her a tail.  He said helplessly: "Gu Hu, isn't this just messing around? You're not that material, why do you get involved?"

    In fact, Zhu Guiyun didn¡¯t want to get involved, but after hearing what Gu Huxin said about what Charlie Chen had done, he was also very dissatisfied with Yuan Qiaoqiao¡¯s treatment of him. He sighed and said: ¡°The problem is that your aunt told you,  You didn¡¯t listen at all, you¡­¡±

    "Mom, if you are also on my aunt's side, don't say anything."

    After interrupting her, Yuan Qiaoqiao thought for a while and explained: "Mom, Charlie Chen is indeed at fault. I didn't say I won't punish him, but I haven't decided how to punish him yet. As for my aunt wanting me to fire him, is that right?  possible.

    It¡¯s not that I can¡¯t bear it, but reality doesn¡¯t allow it.

    The stall he set up on the real estate was based on the fact that he was from Xiangjiang. Therefore, if he wanted to find someone to take over these things, first of all, he had to be a Xiangjiang person in terms of identity. Otherwise, it would be gone.  All the benefits brought by this status will be gone. By then, I will really become a charity, but I don¡¯t want to do this kind of charity.

    Since I can¡¯t fire him, I can only let him stay on the job and continue working for me. I can¡¯t let me pay him a salary to support him, right?

    ¡°I absolutely can¡¯t do this kind of loss-making business. I¡¯m already sick of it because it¡¯s hard to deal with him. If I continue to add money to support the uncle, wouldn¡¯t it make me sick to death?  "

    After listening to her words, Zhu Guiyun suddenly realized. Thinking of Gu Huxin's accusation against Yuan Qiaoqiao, he stamped his foot and sighed: "Oh, we forgot that he is from Xiangjiang."  becomes complicated.

    "Then you can explain it to your aunt. Actually, I'm in a dilemma"

    Halfway through her words, her cell phone rang. Yuan Qiaoqiao stopped talking and saw Sister Kuan's name displayed on the screen, so she hurriedly picked up the phone.

    When she learned that the movie "What time is it there" was shortlisted for the main competition unit of this year's Cannes International Film Festival, she laughed, but the smile on her face froze halfway, "Sister Kuan, the film festival opens on May 9th.  It lasted for twelve days, and I will be filming on the 11th. I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t be able to go"

    Hearing Sister Kuan's words, she frowned, "Since the film company doesn't want me to attend the film festival, just don't tell me. I'm not that obsessed with whether to go to the film festival or not. Even if I find out afterwards, I won't  angry.

    ¡°Besides, even if I get angry, I won¡¯t go to the director or them to cause trouble. Firstly, my little arms and legs are not as strong as anyone else¡¯s. Secondly, there is no law that stipulates that people must take me with them to the film festival.

    "It's just that since they don't want me to go, then Sister Kuan, do you still tell me because you want to make me angry?"  "

    There is a big difference between her not wanting to go and someone not letting her go.  It would be fine if she didn't know beforehand, but now that she knows, no matter how reasonable Yuan Qiaoqiao is, she can't feel happy.

    "Of course not. I'm not that free yet, and if I don't let you go, it will harm your interests. I am your agent, and we are one, so I will also suffer."

    Sighing, Sister Kuan smiled and said: "This time your film has been shortlisted for the main competition of the Cannes Film Festival. I plan to give you a reputation as starring in literary and artistic films that are easy to win the favor of the film festival.

    For those directors of literary and artistic films, this title is very attractive. After all, it is still very difficult for literary and artistic films to achieve good results at the box office. However, if they are shortlisted for the three major film festivals, they can win no matter whether they win awards or not.  Once the film is sold and the money is repaid, there will be a chance to make another film.  "

    "I'll follow your arrangements in this regard." Yuan Qiaoqiao didn't care about this, and then asked curiously, "Sister Kuan, do you know why the crew doesn't want me to go to Cannes?"

    "This is exactly the purpose of my call to you this time." Sister Kuan paused for a moment before continuing, "Although you have a green card, you are not an American, and the film industry in Taiwan is even more exclusive than in Hong Kong.  , but this "What time is it there" was also shortlisted for the main competition section of Cannes, so it caused dissatisfaction among many people in the Taiwanese circle.

    Originally, when the film was shot, it was not planned to be released in Taiwan. After all, the film market in Taiwan is really terrible. However, after the news that the film was nominated for the Cannes Film Festival was confirmed, the Taiwan authorities, who have been working hard to revitalize the film market, have cooperated with  The film crew is discussing the release date of the movie.

    If nothing else, after the Cannes Film Festival is over, take advantage of the popularity of Cannes??The movie will be released in Taiwan.  "

    No artist wants their work to be stored in a warehouse and never see the light of day after being photographed, so Yuan Qiaoqiao said very directly, "This is a good thing."

    "It's a good thing, but your identity is rather special. If someone uses your identity to speak out against the authorities, not only may the movie not be released, but it may also affect a large number of people.

    Therefore, after discussion, the film studio decided to avoid mentioning you as much as possible during the promotion and release of the movie. If it must be mentioned, your Chinese name will not be mentioned, only your English name will be mentioned, along with the cast list at the end of the movie.  your English name.  "So, I can't make any big publicity here.

    Yuen Qiaoqiao can understand the idea of ??"What Time Is It Over There" wanting to be released in Taiwan? Just like the original "Sometimes Dancing", although the money has been paid back by selling the film, after it is released, no matter how small the box office is, no matter how small the mosquito is,  Meat is better than nothing.

    Moreover, before each movie is released, all the main creators, whether in front of the stage or behind the scenes, cannot predict the box office.  In the industry, there are many films that both the film creators and critics were very optimistic about, but failed at the box office after they were released; there are also films by newcomers that became dark horses at the box office.

    Although Taiwan¡¯s film market has been stagnant for many years, occasionally one or two blockbuster movies will appear.  Whether the movie "What time is it there" will be a box office hit needs to be tested by the market.  But if it fails to be released in Taiwan, how can we talk about market testing?

    And according to the policy of the Taiwan authorities, because the film has been shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Cannes International Film Festival, it will be subsidized regardless of whether it wins or not, and the subsidies issued in the name of bonuses are very generous, but if you want to get the subsidies, the film  It must be released in Taiwan, this is one of the conditions.

    Of course, it will be good for the director¡¯s future career if the film can be released in Taiwan.  In addition, there should be some political matters involved. Therefore, for the benefit of career development and the generous bonus, it is not necessary to just use Yuan Qiaoqiao's English name, or even without a name.

    Also, despite the fact that Taiwanese TV dramas often use mainland actors, it was not until "Tears in the Sky" that mainland actors were used, and actresses were still the heroines. Before, no matter how outstanding the artist's personal conditions were, they could only  Can play supporting roles.

    In fact, Xiao Yanzi was also the second female lead in the hit movie Return of the Pearl, but in the final film, she, the second female lead, stole the limelight from the first female lead, Ziwei, and the public was misled by the title of the film, thinking that she was the real one.  As for the female protagonist, due to the situation, Qiong Jue had to admit that Huanzhu was a two-female protagonist, but in the second part, it was obvious that she had a preference for the female lead, Ziwei.

    Taiwanese films, which are more influential than TV series and can go global, have also used mainland actors, but they all played small roles and never played leading roles. The film "The Beauty in the Smoke" directed by Liu Dekai, which was shot by Zhou Xun in 2002, does not count because  The director and the leading actor are both cross-border, not from the Taiwanese film industry, and there are almost no Taiwanese people involved in the behind-the-scenes team. Similarly, Liu Yifei and Taiwanese artists filmed "Love Winner" and "May Love" are also blamed.  in this category.

    The Taiwanese film industry really opened its doors to mainland artists in 2008 when Yuan Quan became the first mainland actress to film in Taiwan after "Direct Flight". However, it was not until the advent of the traffic era that the ban was finally opened.  , but it¡¯s still not complete.

    The film market in Xiangjiang is going downhill, but at least the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, and there are still some valuable possessions, which are worthy of Yuan Qiaoqiao's high look. As for Taiwan, I can only say that it is a complete paper tiger, relying on that  A few well-established and internationally renowned directors have decorated the facade, and are about to be reduced to sharing the same fate as Japan. However, we still cannot ignore the capital it left behind in its glory days. In fact, there are currently many Taiwanese people in the Hong Kong circle.

    She sneered and said disdainfully: "Oh, you are hiding your ears and stealing the bell. As the heroine of the movie, if you don't mention me, don't I exist?"

    After hearing what she said, Sister Kuan echoed: "Yes, that's it. Don't mention using your English name. Even if your name is not on the cast list, doesn't it mean you didn't act in the movie?

    Besides, literary and artistic films like "What Time Is It Over There" have very few viewers who are interested in them. If you really want to know who you are, as long as you are willing, you can always find out through other methods. This is not the only one for you.  work.  "

    Smiling, she added: "I don't mean to belittle the mainland, but many Hong Kong and Taiwan artists, including the eight major female celebrities Xia Yufanghong, Linzhen Minxian, and the newly emerged Zhang Bozhi, the Four Heavenly Kings and Stars of Hong Kong  Although I, as well as many Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrities, are credited with corporate promotions, the people in the mainland probably first got to know them through pirated discs."

    Hearing this, Yuan Qiaoqiao thought for a moment and couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that she also knew about them through pirated discs. When it came to the topic of copyright, the mainland was indeed a bit weak at this time, but she knew that this was because of the late start.  It will get better and better in the future.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)It is indeed a bit weak, but she knows that this is because of the late start and that it will get better and better in the future.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
