The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang

v2 Chapter 537: Elegance is not pretended, but the grand

  Where Chu Huan appears, there will always be news.

   This sentence used to be a little secret circulated among Xiangjiang media, but since Chu Huan rarely appeared in Xiangjiang in the past two years, there were fewer news, and naturally fewer people said this sentence.

  But the election of Miss Xiangjiang this time once again confirmed this sentence.

Originally, the major media thought that the focus of Chu Huan's appearance this time would be on those sisters from Hong Kong. After all, some media had already published this election of Miss Hong Kong, which was Chu Huan's Concubine Selection Conference. But when the election of Miss Hong Kong is over, these No one found a photo of Chu Huan meeting the Miss Hong Kong alone.

  However, this is not important. What is important is that Chu Huan made his own comments again, and this time Chu Huan did not speak for himself, but for his former competitor Shao Yifu.

   This news immediately caused a huge commotion in Xiangjiang.

  So the next day's papers were basically full of two things that took up all their sections.

   The first thing is naturally the election of Miss Xiangjiang.

   Zhu Lingling has become the protagonist of this incident. There is nothing to discuss about Zhu Lingling's election. Zhu Lingling, who is all men and women, has become the first undisputed best Hong Kong lady since TVB took over Miss Xiangjiang.

  In addition, the picture of Huo Zhenting holding flowers and going backstage to meet Zhu Lingling also appeared in the newspaper.

  Miss Hong Kong, a super wealthy family, is in touch again.

  The second thing is that Chu Huan started talking about those film critics.

   Regarding Chu Huan's answer at that time, no newspaper took it out of context, but reported Chu Huan's words completely.

When those film critics saw what Chu Huan was spouting, they couldn't sit still. Even if one of them was picked up by the media before, he even lost his underwear, but after all, it's been a few years , whether they still remember that person or not is one thing.

   Naturally, there is not much to be afraid of now.

  Before, they were afraid of Chu Huan's influence in Xiangjiang, and it was Shao Yifu who took the lead, so no one talked about Chu Huan. Now that Chu Huan has appeared, they naturally have to work hard to maximize their sense of existence.

   "Brother Huan, you have stabbed a hornet's nest again this time!"

  In the villa in the middle of the mountain, Gu Chengxi nestled in Chu Huan's arms, preaching helplessly.

   "Even several columnists in our own newspaper want to write articles to criticize what you said earlier!"

  "Zhenbao", "Daily Daily" and "Movie Biweekly" all have their own columns, some of which are article columns, some of which are movie columns, especially "Movie Biweekly", whose entire content is film reports.

  Now that Chu Huan is directly spraying, and it is one of their groups, those people will naturally group up and attack.

"Movies full of SQ and violence, I really can't see the artistry in such movies, black and white images, Shaw Brothers, as the two largest film companies in Hong Kong, only know how to make some vulgar movies to stimulate the senses of the audience , but never wanted to make some elegant movies to improve the audience's aesthetics.

I am very worried. I am worried that the children of the Hong Kong generation who grew up watching black-and-white images and Shaw Brothers movies will only know about SQ and violence in the future. When those people from other places see our Hong Kong movies, do they also think that it is in Hong Kong? Hong Kong only has SQ and violence.

  Film is a popular art, but because it is popular art and easy to understand, we should shoot more humanistic things in movies like this one.

   Let young people in Xiangjiang understand that there are not only SQ and violence in Xiangjiang, but also many beautiful things, and at the same time let people from other places understand that Xiangjiang is a beautiful city”

   This is a rebuttal to what Chu Huan said yesterday in a newspaper, and it is also from Wang Jingyi who wrote a poem satirizing Shao Yifu before!

   Obviously, last night, he already knew the content of what Chu Huan said in advance.

  Throwing the newspaper in his hand on the coffee table, Chu Huan said indifferently: "Treat these people as a hornet's nest, then you really think highly of them."

  Gu Chengxi turned around and asked Chu Huan, "Brother Huan, have you already thought about how to refute them?"

  Chu Huan smiled easily, and said, "Do you still need to think about refuting them? It's so easy."

  Gu Chengxi got up straight away, found a pen and paper, then sat next to Chu Huan, and happily said: "Brother Huan, tell me, I will remember, tonight's evening paper, I will publish it in "Zhenbao Evening News"!"

  Chu Huan looked at Gu Chengxi, who was a little excited, and said with a smile: "Didn't you worry about me just now?"

   Gu Chengxi smiled, and said: "That's because I forgot your combat power, let you say that, I remembered, how could these people be your opponents!"

  Chu Huan was also bored, and smiled and said to Gu Chengxi: "I said, remember!"

  Gu Chengxi nodded seriously.

  But after Chu Huan finished speaking, Gu Chengxi couldn't help but look at Chu Huan in surprise, "If this is sent out, those people will have to jump in anger!"

Chu Huan chuckled nonchalantly, and said, "Do I care about their jumping feet? A group of people comment on movies and art, and some people buy it, so they can honestly earn some of their hard work, and they have to jump out to find cigarettes." Then who can blame it!"

Gu Chengxi thought for a while and closed her notebook, and said seriously to Chu Huan: "Brother Huan, although these people don't have much ability, they still have a certain influence. If you send this passage, then from now on In the future, black and white video movies will probably be criticized for nothing by these people, and it may affect the box office of black and white video movies!"

  Although she felt that what Chu Huan said was very relieved, Gu Chengxi couldn't help but worry about Chu Huan's company.

   Those critics, the reason why every newspaper is willing to spend money to support them is actually because there are still some people who are willing to listen to what they have to say.

  I haven't watched the movie yet!

First read the comments of the critics in the newspaper. The critics said it was good, so they went to watch it. .

  If the reviewers in the newspaper say that the movie is not good, then they will not watch it, and they will tell their friends that the movie is not good.

  As for why it doesn’t look good?

  If other commentators say it’s not good-looking, then it must be bad-looking!

  In this era when there was no running water, the comments of commentators can indeed affect the box office trend of some movies.

  This is also the reason why Shao Yifu could only choose to remain silent after being sprayed, but did not refute.

  Do you make money, not shabby!

Chu Huan didn't care about these things at all, and said: "Sometimes, I have to let these people understand that I give them food, so they have food. You can’t even eat hot **** if you eat shit!”

  For these people, from the last life to this life, Chu Huan has always looked down on them. Those who kneel and beg for food have to talk about how elegant they are, and they simply don't know what it means.

.

   Xiangjiang, Regal Restaurant!

  Wang Jingyi and a group of like-minded people were sitting at a dining table in the hall, discussing what happened this time.

"Everyone, this Chu Huan is too arrogant to humiliate us openly. If we can't unite this time, will there be elegant movies in Xiangjiang in the future? Aren't people in Xiangjiang watching only black and white images in the future? Shao The Brothers produced a pulp movie.

  So this time, I hope that everyone can unite and not give up our original intention for those petty profits. We should be worthy of those readers who believe in us, and we should also be worthy of Xiangjiang’s art. "

  Wang Jingyi was impassioned at this time, and Chu Huan and Shao Yifu became the heinous people in his mouth. Their existence polluted the perfect film art in their minds, and polluted the eyes and ears of Xiangjiang people.

"I agree with what Brother Wang said. The black and white image was founded before and wanted to win the Film Awards. This is the case. Selecting some unknown films is an insult to the art of film. If possible, I think we should unite Create a film festival of our own.

  A film festival that can truly represent Xiangjiang filmmakers. It is no longer a box-office-only film that wins awards. Let Xiangjiang filmmakers, Asian filmmakers, see our Xiangjiang films with real artistic quality! "

  The one who agrees with Wang Jingyi's words is called Su Weichen, who once studied drama and literature at the University of Bristol in England, but after returning to Xiangjiang, he never got the opportunity to make films and became a film critic for his livelihood.

Su Weichen was very happy when black and white images created the Film Awards before, thinking that Xiangjiang should also have a local film award, so that it can better serve Xiangjiang Films. Unfortunately, the organizing committee of the Film Awards later The establishment of , made his mood fall from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the valley.

  The organizing committee of the Hong Kong Film Awards is entirely composed of directors or actors who have already had successful experience in blockbuster movies, and there is no room for commentators like them.

   This made Su Weichen very angry for a while, but soon after the black and white images of the two colleagues stripped them of their underwear, they dared not say anything more.

   After all, no one's background is clean. If it is exposed, it would be too shameful.

  But for the awards selected by the Hong Kong Film Awards, Su Weichen did not attack less.

What?

  An action movie can be the best picture?

What?

  The leading actor of a comedy film can win the Best Actor Award at the Film Awards?

What?

  Various doubts keep appearing in Su Weichen's articles.

But unfortunately, although his comments have a certain influence, the influence is really limited. It can neither form a certain blow to the box office of this type of movie, nor can it delay the praise of award-winning films and filmmakers by major media newspapers. .

   This made Su Weichen very sad. He didn't think Xiangjiang Films should be like this.

  So Su Weichen has always had a dream in his heart, dreaming of having a film festival of their own in Xiangjiang, a film festival for film critics like them.

  Because only they are the group of people who represent the best film appreciation in Xiangjiang, and only they can really drive the development of the entire Xiangjiang film!

  Su Weichen's words immediately aroused the support of everyone present.

   "That's right, only in this way can we truly show our Xiangjiang movies, and only the movies we select can represent Xiangjiang movies!"

   Someone immediately shouted passionately!

   This person is Ou Jiande, a person who graduated from the film department of New York University in North America and returned to Hong Kong. He has the same experience as Su Weichen, and they both think that they are the kind of people who are underappreciated.

   It's not that my own movies are not well made, but that the movie audiences in Xiangjiang don't understand how to appreciate their own movies.

More importantly, Ou Jiande came back from North America, so he naturally knows the selection mechanism of the Academy Awards in North America. A handsome reward.

   You really can’t make much money just writing some movie reviews.

  Wang Jingyi was also excited by what these people said, saying: "Yes, we should start a film festival of our own. Only in this way can the people of Xiangjiang see real art films."

  The rest of the people were also a little excited by this suggestion, so they began to make suggestions.

  But soon, following a sentence from a film critic named Gu Rongzhang, everyone fell into silence.

  "If we want to establish such a film festival, we need a certain amount of funds, and it is best to have sponsorship. Can we find such sponsorship?"

  Organizing a film festival does not mean that it can be organized just because of the preparation. It must have a venue, a venue, and influence, and all of these require financial support!

   "Gu Rongzhang, what do you mean? Now everyone is actively making suggestions, but you are here to pour cold water on everyone. Do you want to discourage everyone's enthusiasm?"

  Su Weichen, who made this suggestion, immediately retorted dissatisfied.

Gu Rongzhang was slightly taken aback, and said aggrievedly: "I'm not pouring cold water on everyone, I'm just talking about a practical problem. To organize a film festival, you need at least three to five million Hong Kong dollars. We can find this money Sponsorship?"

  Everyone fell into silence again. If they all get together the money, they will definitely be able to take it out.

but

  We are for the development of Xiangjiang Films, we are for elegance, for art!

  Elegance is priceless, so is art.

   Anyway, we can't take money!

  In fact, they are no different from those who comment on various movies and movie awards on short videos and official accounts in later generations.

  Those people in later generations can only vent their dissatisfaction outside because they know a little bit about this industry, but they don't have the real ability to enter the inner circle of this industry.

   At the same time, realize all this traffic and get some commissions.

  In the past, Chu Huan would occasionally believe the words of some film critics, but after the release of the eye-catching "Lion Boy", the film critics of those short video accounts all praised it, and Chu Huan understood.

  These people actually put it bluntly, they just take money to do things.

  Movies that give money are praised a lot, and movies that don’t give money are full of praise.

  The ability to open your eyes and tell lies is stronger than anyone else!

  Speaking of these people, after Gu Rongzhang said the specific amount of money, these people fell silent again. They don't want to take the money themselves, so they can only find sponsors.

   But where do you find sponsorship?

   "It's not impossible!" Wang Jingyi said at this time.

  Everyone looked at him in unison.

Wang Jingyi said: "Now the most popular film magazine in Hong Kong must be "Film Biweekly", and one of the reasons why it is so popular is that "Film Biweekly" is the organizer of the Film Awards. When the award is held, it can bring him a big wave of sales. I believe that some media companies will definitely be able to see the profits. As long as we look for it seriously, I believe there will be some media companies that will give us suggestions. Interested in.

  In addition, there are not only commercial films in Xiangjiang, but also some art films. If we can find the support of these aspiring filmmakers, I believe that the film festival we want to hold will be successful.

   At that time, as long as we are successful and have influence, then I believe we will not lack sponsors by then! "

"That's what I want to say!" Su Weichen immediately supported Wang Jingyi's words, "What Brother Wang said is very reasonable. With the influence of us people, we want to hold a session that really belongs to us in Xiangjiang. Film festivals, that's pretty easy."

   "Okay, if that's the case, I'll go to the newspaper office to ask the president now!"

   Someone continued to speak out in line with the Tao.

  These people are all writing columns for the major newspapers in Xiangjiang, so they are naturally in contact with the bosses of these newspapers.

   Everyone finalized their plan, and immediately began to split up, looking for the boss of the newspaper behind the scenes!

.

  "Sing Tao Daily" headquarters!

  Su Weichen was frothing with Hu Xian about their previous plan at this time, hoping to get Hu Xian's support.

"President Hu, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Didn't the newspaper always want to publish its own film magazine? As long as the newspaper supports our film festival, it will be able to make a name for itself as a film magazine. Island Daily can also take advantage of this incident to increase its influence and enter the field of movie magazines."

  Where Hu Xianduan was sitting, looking at the big cake that Su Weichen had painted for himself, he shook his head helplessly.

  The ancients said that one who is useless is a scholar, do not deceive me!

  Are these people thinking too much of themselves?

   "Mr. Su."

Hu Xian interrupted Su Weichen, and said calmly: "Although I really hope that the company can start a movie magazine of its own, and the plan you mentioned is also very good, but there are some things I still hope you can do for me seriously. Let me clear it up!"

  At this time, when Su Weichen was officially excited, when he heard Hu Xian say this, he didn't understand what the other party meant, but he preached proudly.

   "President Hu, tell me, if there is anything you don't understand, I can explain it to you!"

   Facing the confident Su Weichen, Hu Xian resisted the urge to drive him out of his office, and said: "If you want to hold a film festival, I think the first condition should be that there are participating films?"

  Su Weichen didn't understand why Hu Xian asked such an idiot question, but now he wanted to get Hu Xian's support, so he could only resist his urge to talk to the idiot, and nodded.

   "It's natural!"

   Hu Xian doesn't know what Su Weichen is thinking, this person's column is still useful, and it is true that some moviegoers will buy newspapers for their comments, so this is why Hu Xian now endures Su Weichen's nonsense in front of him.

"Now the two largest film companies in Hong Kong, Black and White Video, and Shaw Brothers, almost dominate more than 80% of the film market in Hong Kong. Your film festival also advertises that you focus on elegant and literary films. What do you think of these two films? Will the company's films be judged and humiliated by you?

  The most important thing is, now that Xiangjiang already has the Film Awards and has its own popularity, why do they send their own films to your film festival for selection instead of their own? "

   "Because our film festival is the real film festival, a film festival that truly serves movie audiences, why don't they send my film festival for selection?" Su Weichen said as a matter of course.

   Hu Xian almost sprayed Su Weichen's face with a mouthful of old blood. What a big face this must be, to be able to say such stupid things so naturally!

   But this also let Hu Xian know that he must not invest in this kind of film festival, throwing money into the sea by himself can cause some splashes.

   For these people, it is simply burning money to smoke themselves to play!

   "Mr. Su, I'm very sorry. Although your plan is very good, our "Sing Tao Daily" now has its own development plan, so this matter can only be embarrassing!"

  Su Weichen looked at Hu Xian incomprehensibly, and said, "President Hu, you just gave up on such a good opportunity. You must know that if other newspapers are willing to invest, the cheapest newspapers will be the other newspapers?"

  Hu Xian rubbed his eyebrows, and said perfunctorily: "If this is the case, then we "Sing Tao Daily" don't know the treasure!"

  Su Weichen got up and seriously said to Hu Xian: "President Hu, you will definitely regret your decision today!"

  Hu Xian: "Hehe!"

  After Su Weichen left, Hu Xian couldn't help picking up the phone on his desk, and called Gu Chengxi's office.

   "Mr. Gu, I think there is something you might need to know!"

.

  Ming Pao Headquarters!

  Wang Jingyi looked at Jin Yong in puzzlement. He couldn't understand why Jin Yong would reject his proposal with such artistic value?

   Just now, Wang Jingyi also told Jin Yong his thoughts, hoping that Jin Yong can support his ideas, and the most important thing is to invest in the film festival they organize.

  But Jin Yong's reaction was the same as Hu Xian's, and clearly rejected Wang Jingyi's suggestion.

   "Mr. Cha, now the Hong Kong film industry is full of all kinds of violence, SQ, you are the representative of our Hong Kong cultural people, can you bear such a movie to tarnish the beautiful movies in our hearts?"

  Wang Jingyi couldn't help preaching.

  A beautiful movie in your mind?

  Jin Yong was stunned for a moment, when did he express himself like this?

   Isn’t this the movie you guys have been promoting, what does it have to do with me?

  I'm just a businessman. No, I'm just a cultural businessman!

Businessman Jin Yong helplessly said to Wang Jingyi: "Brother Jingyi, organizing a film festival is not an easy task. I know that you all have a passion for movies in your hearts, but you must also consider the reality. I can assure you , even if your film festival is organized, black-and-white images, Shaw Brothers films will not be selected, without films from these two film companies, how can your film festival be organized?"

Wang Jingyi is still more rational than Su Weichen, and said: "Even if there are no films from these two film companies, it doesn't matter. There are still many new wave films in Xiangjiang. Gathering together will naturally expand our influence at that time.

  It can also cultivate the interest of Hong Kong film audiences in art films. This is a matter of great merit! "

  Hearing that Wang Jingyi has raised this matter to the level of merit, Jin Yong couldn't help but want to complain about how naive and self-confident it is to be able to say such a thing!

"Brother Jingyi, that's not what you said. Art films also need box office. Now Xiangjiang's theaters are basically monopolized by black and white theaters and Shaw Brothers theaters. They go to your film festival. Then do they still want to show it in Xiangjiang?"

Wang Jingyi looked at Jin Yong in surprise, and said: "Why don't they show black-and-white movies? This kind of movie is much more elegant than their movies. If they don't show this kind of movie, is it just that?" Aren't you worried about movie audiences criticizing them?"

  Jin Yong: "."

Wang Jingyi seriously said to Jin Yong: "Mr. Cha, I know what you are worried about, but you should believe that the truth in this world is always held by the mouths of a few people. It can be seen that the box office of the movies we appreciate is indeed higher than that of movies of the same type.

   This shows the influence of us people. As for ordinary Xiangjiang movie audiences, what do they really know?

   Isn't what we say is good, what they think is good? "

  Jin Yong shook his head, then took out a newspaper on his desk and handed it to Wang Jingyi to preach.

   "Brother Jingyi, these are some opinions on you just published in the "Zhenbao Evening News", I think you should read it!"

  Wang Jingyi took the newspaper from Jin Yong's hand in some puzzlement, but his face turned red instantly after seeing the content on it.

  “What is vulgarity and what is elegance? I think that simple elegance is not enough to make up the world, and the emotions of little people are the real art.

  The elegant and the vulgar are mutually tolerant, so that both the refined and the vulgar can be appreciated.

  Movies have always been both refined and popular, and there are more "vulgar" elements. This is where the characteristics and charm of movies lie.

  At the same time, according to this newspaper, I learned a sentence from Mr. Chu through a special channel, and I only sent this sentence to all the film critics.

  Elegance is not put on, it is the grandson who puts it on. "
