Chapter 661 Desire in the Secret Room
Hu Qiming returned to Beijing Film Studio. Before he reached the main building, he suddenly wanted to visit the building. He had never been there before.
To the left after entering the door, two residential buildings stand out and stand out. They seem to form their own area with the facilities downstairs, which does not match the style of Beijing Film Studio. He stood downstairs and looked up, feeling a little greedy.
He is no more than a hospital patient. He also has to squeeze into public toilets and use briquettes.
Looking in front of the building, there is an open space that has been leveled and has no intention of further development.
Hu Qiming knew this was a difficult problem: he could either choose to please the employees and sell the factory area to build a building; or he could protect the Beijing Film Studio and maintain its independence and integrity. He is not stupid. Accepting Dongfang Company's conditions is equivalent to getting a concession. Who will have the final say in the future?
Don't underestimate the thoughts of some employees. They really have faith, and it's not that easy to sell the factory.
"Director Hu?"
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a greeting. He looked up and saw that it was Chen Qi who had just come out of the office. He said, "Comrade Chen Qi!"
For their first meeting under such circumstances, both of them were a little surprised. Hu Qiming showed a smile and took the initiative: "I have nothing to do and came over to take a look.
Are you going out? "
"Well, I have to go to the Ministry of Culture."
"That's a coincidence. I just came back. You are busy with your business and we will talk another day."
"well!"
Chen Qi waved his hand, opened the van door and got in. Hu Qiming had to give way and looked at the butt of the van and pouted. What he envied most about Dongfang Company was its money. They were so rich that their tapes were sold like crazy.
Chen Qi came here after receiving a call from Ding Qiao.
He knocked on the office door and came in, saying, "Minister Ding, are you looking for me?"
"Did you take the photo of the Olympic champion's visit to Hong Kong?"
"I just had a chat with Mr. Huo Zhenting, it's nothing."
"Forget it, I don't know you yet? There is news from the Huo family. They are willing to support this event. We need to discuss it in detail."
"Can it be done?"
"Whether it succeeds or not depends on the British Hong Kong government. Our negotiations are at a critical moment, and these things can become conditions for pressure. We have the upper hand.
Just go. But it has nothing to do with us, after all, it is a matter in the sports world. "
"Then we can do things in the cultural sector, such as organizing exchanges for filmmakers."
"You are so energetic every day that it makes me dizzy. Film-maker exchanges are not a big deal, and there is no need to put them in this year. Let's wait."
"Okay, I listen to you. I will return to Hong Kong in a few days. I have to confirm with you that the opening up to Hong Kong films is a big deal. Hong Kong compatriots are very anxious. I still have the same opinion. Opening up will also be beneficial to the mainland industry. ”
"Oh? Where to start?"
“Have you ever heard of the butterfly effect?”
"What?"
"No! The frog effect, that's not right either - that, oh! Catfish effect!"
Chen Qi Balabala explained: "One of the reasons why the domestic film industry is like this is that it is a self-contained system that is unbreakable.
Then we can introduce external competition to break the system, and at least create a hole.
There are nearly one million people working in the film industry. This is their reliance, and reform is hard to come by. If Hong Kong films are allowed in, Hong Kong films themselves will have political support, and we will have a good reason. "
"We will definitely not be able to beat Hong Kong films commercially, and the domestic film industry will be even more miserable."
"So we need to put restrictions on Hong Kong films, what kind of films and what kind of actors can come in, for example, give them 10 targets every year, let them grab it by themselves, let them compete, and we can regulate it in the general direction."
"Your opinion is valuable. This matter is serious, so I said the same thing. You should hold them back first, and then submit a letter next year!"
"Okay, I understand!"
The Olympic Games are in full swing.
The second season of "The Voice Asia" was released with great success. The quality of the contestants was not as good as that of the first season, but it still achieved high ratings. The leftist "Happy Ghost 2" was released at the same time again.
Everyone took a look and found that Annie Bai and Zhou Huimin from the first season were in it, and Priscilla Chan even sang the theme song. It just so happened that the second season also featured a very cute 13-year-old Liu Xiaohui. Lin Lingdong announced early that he wanted Liu Xiaohui to star in "Happy Ghost 3".
The Voice is not just a variety show, but a platform for amateurs to showcase themselves and have the chance to be selected for filming.
Everyone's enthusiasm is getting higher and higher.
Du Dewei has attracted a lot of traffic with his mixed-race appearance and dynamic typhoon. Wang Jie, on the other hand, was officially promoted and told his own story. His parents were former Shaw Brothers actors, so he had his own nod.
He is at odds with his parents, but he cannot engage in sensationalism like Zhou Huimin. Wang Jie's situation is not suitable for sensationalism, so he has to follow the path of a prodigal son.
Li Zhuanglie is now very enlightened. Wang Jie made his first appearance. He didn't have any parents to cheer for him, so he actually brought his 3-year-old daughter as a family member to cheer him on. The second time, Wang Jie's parents were invited to the scene, but Wang Jie was indifferent and refused!
Just hugging my daughter and crying.
Good guy, Chi Guoguo’s family ethics drama has soared in ratings again.
And Li Zhuanglie also arranged for Zhong Zhentao to take several students to sing "True Hero" live to cheer for the Olympics. The heat was entangled with each other.
It's all a routine.
While the two places have their own programs, the United States is also not idle, but it is not the Olympics.
Los Angeles.
In a video rental store, many customers are selecting movies.
The videotape industry in the United States is developing rapidly. A box of tapes sells for tens of dollars, and people are more willing to spend $2 to rent it. The overall market size has now reached more than one billion.
Two years later, in 1986, the market size will reach more than 4 billion, while the annual box office in the United States that year is only more than 3 billion.
"You are a liar! This movie is not exciting at all, and the girls in it are not as sexy as Tom's aunt!"
"Who is Tom?"
"It doesn't matter! You must change a movie for me for free, otherwise your crappy store will be on our company's collective blacklist!"
A bearded white man waved a videotape and spit at the clerk. The clerk was very calm and said: "Calm down, man, I can change a movie for you, this one is absolutely exciting!"
"Go away, I don't believe you!"
"I swear in the name of Aunt Tom, take this back!"
The white man stared at the videotape suspiciously. The packaging was very rough, and there was a picture of an Asian woman huddled in a corner pitifully. The English meaning of the name was probably: "Desire in the Secret Room".
"OK! I'll believe you again!"
He left cursing, and when he got home, he couldn't wait to put the videotape into the machine. He also prepared cola, snacks, and toilet paper--just like the otaku in the future who saw his favorite actress' new film, and felt excited.
His name is Tom.
Watching videotapes is his recent hobby.
Because video recorders are very cheap now, all his colleagues around him bought one, so he followed suit and bought one, and then he couldn't stop. This way of watching movies with excellent privacy and active film selection made him very obsessed.
Unfortunately, there are too few good movies. Mainstream movies in theaters will certainly release videotapes, but he prefers the surprise of finding movies by himself.
"Japanese women? Is it a Japanese movie?"
His first reaction was this. As the movie started, it was about an American worker who lost his job and took revenge on a lovely Japanese girl. In less than five minutes, his breathing became heavy and his eyes widened.
A sense of skill and confidence from the future who had watched all the porn movies washed over him instantly.
