Chapter 110: Approval from above?(1/2)
Chapter 110: Recognition from above?
Regarding the invitation.
Obviously, Chen Qingxue was a little unexpected, but she didn't worry about it. After all, Song Zimo was developing better and better, so she was naturally happy to see this.
However, this time the double happiness came, both of them felt much more comfortable.
It's very obvious.
When they sat together for dinner, Chen Qingxue's face looked much better. She changed her previous low and calmness. As her mood improved, a smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.
The film festival is still some time away from its opening.
And they don’t have to work hard, they just need to attend the award ceremony at that time.
So, the two of them were not in a hurry. In the following days, they learned about the relevant matters of the film festival, and on the other hand, they arranged their itinerary in advance.
And during this period.
The film festival jury on the other side also held a meeting after receiving the news from the superiors.
In fact.
This meeting was not held by them on their own, but led by the official leaders above. The purpose is naturally to determine the direction of development.
For the film and television industry, what they create is not only a work, but also represents the cultural field of the new era. Not to mention what must be mixed in the works, but as the department that dominates cultural public opinion, they naturally need to take action to guide them.
This is the purpose of this meeting.
Imperial capital.
A building in the city center.
There are many security personnel at the entrance. As the headquarters of the official department, security personnel have patrol back and forth for a long time.
In a conference room in the building, figures sat upright in their seats.
These people are all very well-known.
Either, he is the head of the entertainment departments in various places; or he is the influential authoritative master in the industry, the organizers of this film festival, and the members of the jury of the conference.
At this moment, everyone looked calm without exception, and their eyes were staring at the figure sitting in the main seat.
Director Bai!
As the head of the entertainment department, he is undoubtedly the immediate boss of everyone.
In a very simple sentence, anyone who is involved in the entertainment industry will be under his jurisdiction. No matter how famous or authoritative the people present are, they are useless in front of him.
At this time.
I saw a middle-aged figure sitting next to me, and also took out a document with respect and handed it to Director Bai.
This middle-aged figure is nothing but the organizer of this film festival, Liu Hongwei.
As the head of the propaganda department of the Magic City, he is in charge of the entertainment industry. He also organized the film festival this time, and it is also a report at this moment.
"Director Bai."
"This is the shortlist for this film festival, and they all meet the standards we released before."
At this moment, Liu Hongwei said seriously.
Shortlist!
This is naturally a highly-watched content in the film festival.
In fact, in order to ensure that the position and content of the winning works are in line with our development direction and will not cause negative impacts, they will be submitted for review during the reporting process.
after all.
If an anti-social work wins an award, it will not only lose face in the film festival, but will also have a great negative impact on society.
Considering this aspect, it will be reviewed after being shortlisted.
When you let it go, this is not a particularly large workload. Although there are thousands of works and thousands of film and television works that are submitted every year, there are very few that can be shortlisted.
After all, there are only those awards in total.
Let’s talk about Director Bai at this moment.
Hearing Liu Hongwei's words, he nodded, and then turned to the list.
About two minutes later.
Director Bai then withdrew his gaze, and was already thinking in his heart. Then he looked around for a while and slowly spoke: "Everyone, I'm convening a meeting with you this time. On the one hand, I'm looking at the list of shortlisted works, and on the other hand, I'm passing on the next development trend to everyone."
As soon as these words come out.
Everyone present had a bright face.
Meeting?
Comment on the work?
How could they be interested in these things?
Those things are second to the point where so many people can come here so actively and attend this meeting. What really attracts everyone's attention is the latest news.
To put it bluntly, it is the direction of development!
This is undoubtedly crucial to the film and television industry.
Why do you say so?
The reason is very simple.
There is not much risk before shooting a work, but after the shooting is over, it is necessary to pass the review.
In this case, if it is returned for various reasons.
Just imagine it.
Whether it is for the crew, or the investors, that is an unbearable loss.
joke!
It took tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars to make a total of several months, and when I was about to recover funds or even make a fortune, I suddenly told you that because the content and type of the work did not meet the standards, this is shocking!
This is not a trivial matter of hundreds of thousands.
It can often be millions, or even more capital, and anyone will worry that he will not be able to recover his capital.
And this meeting is equivalent to revealing some news in advance.
On the one hand, you can fire a warning bell for these people, and on the other hand, you can explain the boundaries in advance.
Obviously.
This alone is enough to attract everyone to follow.
"What Director Bai said."
"Then Director Bai will be there."
"The market this year is a bit unrest. If there are only normal works, it would probably be a bit difficult to deal with."
"After drawing the red line last year, I rarely got involved in the War of Resistance Against Japan. It has indeed avoided a lot of trouble. I wonder what the direction of this year is?"
"The shortlisted works this time, except for a very few of them are the works of older generations, most of them are the achievements of young directors, and the problem of directors' aging has been quite a change."
"I looked at that list, and many of the directors listed above are trusted by the newly rising."
····
Before Director Bai could speak, many people began to agree.
And at this time.
After Director Bai looked through the list, his eyes finally fell on the last work, "Crazy Stone!"
You should know that the report and shooting of works is based on the release date. As an annual film festival, Song Zimo's works are still being released at the moment, so they are naturally at the last.
And the one with this work is the movie "The Cliff by the Sea" starring Chen Qingxue!
At this moment, Director Bai's eyes also fell on the movie "Crazy Stone".
In this document, in addition to the type and introduction of the work, there are also factors such as the release results and evaluation of the work, which are all counted, so Director Bai is also clear at a glance at this moment.
"This one is named Song Zimo, and the work he made is pretty good."
"This kind of work is very good to interpret the big stories of the times through the perspective of small characters."
A moment later, when Director Bai looked at the content of the work, he nodded in agreement and made some praises.
See this scene.
Everyone present had their eyes lit up, and their hearts were like a mirror, and they all started to think about it.
Director Bai seemed to have noticed the reactions of the crowd, without explaining too much, and then said: "We set up a Chinese work protection month to reduce the cultural impact of foreign works and shape our own cultural works."
"On the other hand, it is also more important, that is, discover more good works."
"Extravagant and wasteful large-scale productions and exaggerated works, these are incorrect developments."
