Chapter 528 Joking

"The Queen Wears Chanel" passed the review smoothly, but the GD Bureau's attention is no longer on this movie, but on another script.

Compared with the imported Western culture such as fashion, the new script given by Luo Quan is full of Chinese flavor, and the quality is surprisingly high.

In the past, Deputy Director He had to discuss it with Director Zhao above after getting the notebook.

However, Director Zhao is about to be promoted due to his outstanding work, and Deputy Director He will also take his place.

Although there are still some details of the work that have not been completely handed over, the GD Bureau is now basically made by Deputy Director He Tao and He.

So he got the script and studied it all night. The next afternoon, He Tao called all the other leaders in the bureau together for a meeting. The main content of the meeting was to discuss whether the script of "Farewell My Concubine" should be the focus. project to treat.

As the saying goes, there are three things a new official should do when he takes office. After He Tao was promoted to director, he also wanted to make a name for himself.

It has been a long time since Chinese films produced an internationally renowned film. "Wolf Warrior 2" barely counts as half of it, but it was just a self-pleasure for Chinese people at home and abroad, and it did not win any international awards.

If he can produce a film that can win international awards after taking office, it will be a solid political achievement, and it will definitely play a huge role in spurring the current Chinese film and television industry.

He Tao is a leader who wants to make a difference. If there is any way to change the current unbearable situation in the film industry, he is still very willing to try it.

The "Farewell My Concubine" that Luo Quan gave him this time was a very good script at first glance. It told the story of a small character who struggled and finally found relief in the historical tide.

This story has depth, the background is thick enough, and the dramatic conflicts are extremely strong. It is definitely a masterpiece!

It's just that it was precisely because "Farewell My Concubine" had the potential to become a masterpiece that He Tao did not dare to make a decision easily and let Luo Quan develop it alone.

For him, this is the last script he has seen in recent years, and it is also a script that China is expected to achieve international success. He is not sure whether Luo Quan has the ability to make a good movie.

Of course, judging from Luo Quan's past resume, there is no doubt about his ability, but after all, he is one person. No matter how big-hearted He Tao is, he cannot let Luo Quan complete all the filming of the movie alone.

But it doesn't matter. What China lacks the most is elite talents from all walks of life. As long as the GD Bureau makes a statement, it will soon be able to form a crew that can be called an "all-star".

This meeting was mainly to discuss what kind of team should be formed to be responsible for making this movie.

However, at the beginning of the meeting, everyone's opinions were not unified yet, and the arguments needed to be resolved one by one. The most important thing was about the background of the movie, and the second was the subject matter.

There are so many taboos here that each one taken alone is enough to ban the movie or even the director.

The excellence of the book is undeniable, but if it were actually filmed, it would be almost impossible to pass censorship, let alone be released.

However, at the turn of the century, there were still many similar films in China. They were all sensitive in subject matter and large in scale, and it was impossible for them to pass censorship and screening.

However, the director who made the movie also understood that the purpose of making this film was to win an international film award, which meant losing money and gaining fame.

The GD Bureau also turned a blind eye to this kind of matter of bringing honor to the country. The script can be passed, but it is impossible to release it. Fans even have to find various resources on the Internet themselves.

But now the policy has been relaxed, and many previous movies can be easily searched on several major video websites, and they are no longer so-called banned movies.

However, this does not mean that the policy is loose enough to allow a movie with a theme like "Farewell My Concubine" to be released.

It can definitely be filmed. Deputy Director He Tao has already studied the script. There is no private goods included. It records the appearance of that era from an objective perspective.

However, the hope of its release is still relatively slim. The investment for such a masterpiece is in the hundreds of millions. If you spend so much money and it cannot be released in China, you will probably lose everything.

Given the current moral character of these domestic film investors, who are unable to afford early profits, they must be extremely motivated to spend hundreds of millions to hire popular stars to make bad movies, but spending hundreds of millions just to compete for these international awards is probably a waste of money. No investor in their right mind would do this.

There used to be a 81 Factory that could make money at a loss, but this factory stopped production last year, which meant there was absolutely no other way.

After a morning of meetings, we finally came to an unsatisfactory result. The movie can be made without even cutting it, but whether it can be released or not depends on how the film turns out.

Moreover, there is a high probability that the investors will be responsible for their own profits and losses. The GD Bureau can at most help with some subsidies, which is probably less than a fraction of the investment.

He Tao truthfully informed Luo Quan of the results by email. The main reason why he didn't call was because he felt guilty and couldn't talk about it. After thinking about it, it would be better to type.

In the email, he expressed that the GD Bureau is still very optimistic about the movie and can provide some help, such as finding actors and film shooting employees, but other things can only be discussed later.

After this, I don’t know how long it will take.

Soon, Luo Quan received a reply:

"I can shoot whatever game I want. I'll solve the investment problem myself. I'm short of everything except money."

It was an embarrassing thing at first, but Luo Quan's reply made He Tao laugh. This must be because he doesn't use money as money.

But after thinking about the records Luo Quan has sold in the past two years and the family background behind it, it seems that hundreds of millions is really not a big problem.

He Tao laughed dumbly after thinking about it, but he was still hasty.

As for Luo Quan, the answer he received was not too surprising.

She made "Farewell My Concubine" mainly to complete the task and win an international award. It doesn't matter whether the box office is high or low. Even if it can't be released, it still costs several hundred million to exchange for this mysterious award.

If possible, Luo Quan would even like to use RMB to redeem rewards directly to save time on filming movies, but unfortunately there is no such function.

As for the movie "Farewell My Concubine", there is no other reason, because it is the most award-winning domestic film in China in its previous life, and it is one of the pinnacles of Chinese film history.

If you don’t make a movie like this, who will make it?

However, for such a three-hour masterpiece, a lot of preparation is required to start shooting, and the shooting speed cannot be as fast as the previous ones.

This kind of movie needs to be carefully crafted shot by shot, and you can't eat hot tofu if you are impatient.

Of course, there will definitely be no arrangements for "Farewell My Concubine" this year. The most important thing right now is the upcoming "The Queen Wears Chanel."

Luo Quan has arranged related work to the top publicity company in the industry, and the trailer has been released. It has been trending on Weibo for almost a day, and the response so far is pretty good.

The beautiful leading actors, gorgeous clothes, and glamorous fashion world in the film have aroused interest and yearning among young people, especially young girls.

At least on Weibo, "The Queen Wears Chanel" has become a must-watch movie for Jimei fans this summer.

But the most popular thing today is not the movie, but the World Cup final.

After fierce matches, the French team finally defeated Croatia and won the championship of this China World Cup.

It is not an upset ending. As early as the 2016 European Cup, this Gallic army had already demonstrated its strength and talent. One of the black players who played as a forward performed particularly well.

Although the MVP of the World Cup was won by the captain of Croatia in the end, because of the captain's outstanding performance, there is no big objection to winning the best player of the World Cup. It can also be regarded as a consolation prize for the runner-up.

With the World Cup over, the next world-class event will be the Tokyo Olympics in 2020.

Compared with the World Cup, the Olympic Games are definitely more popular than not, and the country has always attached great importance to the Olympics?

At the 2008 Beijing Olympics, China amazed the world from beginning to end. Not only did it win 48 gold medals, but it also contributed to the best Olympic opening ceremony in history. The video has been viewed tens of millions on YouTube. When it comes to topics related to the Olympics, the 2008 Beijing Olympics is an inevitable part.

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. China had poor performance at the Rio Olympics and lost many gold medals that it should not have lost. From the athletes to the management, they were scolded by netizens.

This kind of behavior is definitely not advisable. Since then, many voices have appeared on the Internet to defend athletes, allowing netizens to criticize less and support more. After all, they are also bringing glory to the country.

Since then, the domestic public opinion environment for athletes has finally improved.

However, this time the Tokyo Olympics must not make any mistakes. If a situation like Rio happens again, netizens will probably complain even more fiercely.

At the end of the World Cup, China achieved a historic breakthrough - winning the World Cup. This also made netizens start to enjoy the next world-class event, hoping that they can also break some records at the Tokyo Olympics.

When Luo Quan started her live broadcast, fans in the live broadcast room even asked her to talk about the Olympics.

After all, she has a reputation as the European Emperor. Now if she is asked to help with milking, maybe she can get unexpected surprises like the national football team in the future?

"I don't know about anything else, but we definitely have no problem with table tennis. We must win the championship and runner-up in both men's and women's singles," Luo Quan said confidently.

There are so many sports in the Olympic Games, and China's most stable ones are probably table tennis, weightlifting and diving. These have always been strong gold medal sports, especially table tennis, which is almost a crushing level.

During the 2008 Olympic Games, three national flags were raised together, and China won the first, second and third place.

Therefore, Luo Quan's confidence in saying this is quite sufficient.

But of course fans also know this. The number one in the world in national table tennis is something that everyone on earth knows and does not need to be emphasized.

So Luo Quan continued: "To be honest, in terms of track and field, swimming and fighting, China still has relatively few gold medal points. However, the Olympic Organizing Committee has divided these events very carefully, with various mileage and weight levels. , adding up to dozens of gold medals, China basically has no competitiveness, which is really a pity."

"One thing to say, one thing to say, indeed."

"It's like boxing. The flyweights, featherweights, lightweights, and middleweights are all divided so finely that it makes my eyes dazzled."

"Normally, America's strong sports, such as swimming and track and field, are relatively small. If table tennis, weightlifting and diving can also produce so many activities, we can at least get twenty more gold medals!"

"As for boxing, can Luo Bao go up and give her a fight? The number one female boxer in the world is no joke."

"Ah, no matter how good you are at fighting, you're still not on the same level as the world's top athletes, right?"

"No kidding, if you have seen the video of Luo Quan fighting with someone, you will know that her fighting ability is not comparable to that of a fighting athlete."

"You can find videos of the battle with Southeast Asia's Double Red Stick on the Internet. I don't think those female athletes can achieve this level."

"I think too much. Boxing is about hitting the face. No matter how powerful Luo Quan is, there's no way he can guarantee that he won't get beaten, right? I can't bear to have her face beaten by others."

"Indeed, the fists of professional boxers are no joke. If Luo Quan's delicate skin and tender flesh were touched, it would be directly disfigured."

………………

Luo Quan was quite touched when she saw such concerned discussions from fans, but asking her to go to the Olympics to participate in boxing competitions... sounded a bit outrageous, but she herself felt that with her current strength it was not enough. Too big a problem.

At this time, her fighting ability is no longer comparable to that of ordinary people. She is sure to dodge bullets at close range, let alone a boxer?

And she also has the specialty of being "thick-skinned", so even if she gets hit by someone, she won't be disfigured.

But the problem is that she can withstand someone's punch, but others may not be able to withstand her fist.

She had fought against the Huang family's thugs before, but afterwards she learned that all of them had suffered very serious internal injuries and had to lie in the hospital for more than half a month before recovering.

This was all the result of her controlling some strength at that time. She was kind-hearted and did not think about killing her even at this moment.

And even such a group of strong men with high combat effectiveness were seriously injured after being beaten by her. If a girl was punched by her, would it be okay?

You know, in order to prove his strength, Luo Quan punched through a solid wood board several centimeters thick in a New York court. Human bones will never be harder than this.

Therefore, Luo Quan felt that he had a bug in human strength and it was better not to fight with normal people, lest he lose his strength and beat them to death in the ring.
