Chapter 495, The struggle between the old and the new
Whether it is the popular Hundred Flowers Film Awards or the Golden Image Awards.
They are all absolutely powerful and valuable awards. Although the Best Screenwriter is a secondary award of the Hundred Flowers Awards and the Golden Image Awards, it belongs to the second-tier range. This depends on the status of the screenwriter in the industry. In a crew, the director, actor, and screenwriter are ranked in order of status.
But it is still the best screenwriter of the Hundred Flowers Awards and the Golden Image Awards!
It is still the most prestigious award.
At least at this moment, it is absolutely no problem for Li Yun to be called the 'gold medal screenwriter'.
"Hidden Man" scored 8.9 points on Douban. Unfortunately, it missed out on the Best Picture and Best Director awards at the Hundred Flowers Awards and the Hong Kong Film Awards. Jiang Wen also lamented that the awards at these three major film festivals are really difficult to win.
This time, the only award that was brought back was the Best Screenwriter Award . This title was well-deservedly given to Li Yun.
And also give the final heat to "Dying to Survive" No matter what.
He is also a winner of the Hong Kong Film Awards and the Hundred Flowers Awards! He is extremely popular!
With this "gift", the work will be directly promoted! "Dying to Survive" officially begins promotion and release , and will be released during the National Day holiday——
Aim for the National Day schedule in October.
"Next, we will welcome Lu Bu and Kong Ming from the New Three Kingdoms, the Golden Eagle and Magnolia Award winner, the first person to use action and acting instead of special effects, and the best screenwriter of the Popular Hundred Flowers Awards and the Golden Image Awards."
"Best screenwriter! Wow! So amazing~ (hypocrisy)"
"It's actually quite impressive. Li Yun is already the youngest winner of the Hong Kong Film Awards and the Hundred Flowers Awards. Basically, filmmakers who can win these two awards are already over 40 years old. The youngest age is 37, and the average age is over 45. He is already the youngest double award winner in history, not to mention that he has already won the Best Actor Award in TV dramas. He is definitely a 'demon' actor."
No matter what, "Dying to Survive" has also started its most formal promotion. During this National Day period, "The Great Wall" is also released in the same period.
This is the Sino-US co-production.
Zhang Mouzi's script and direction, famous Hollywood actors, special effects from Industrial Light & Magic, and the Beijing media team When these elements come together.
It becomes a factor of success.
An absolute factor of achievement.
In fact, there is a lot of noise about this public opinion on the Internet.
You don't even need to deliberately use money to build up popularity.
He brought a topic with him.
The topic that comes with it is old money, China’s old money, old circle, the godfather of the film industry, the oldest and most powerful Beijing circle.
The children of the big courtyard who represent power.
And there is Zhang Mouzi.
The best in the world, the best in China.
There is no need to pile up words to describe him, he is simply the best in the world, the most comprehensive and comprehensive director.
The strongest. On Li Yun's side, "Dying to Survive" represents the new and youngest force.
The Li circle has absorbed a group of young and inexperienced people from the Beijing and Hong Kong circles. Li himself has extremely superior talents and has achieved success in the fields of actors and directors.
Trying to make a breakthrough from science fiction suspense and realistic literature and art.
In this high-risk and high-difficulty field, we can overtake others.
I am not the God of Medicine, but it sounds quite religious.
A mix of new and old.
The past and present interweave.
150 million investment and 150 million US dollars investment.
Small investment for a big gain.
An ant cannot shake a tree.
Is it Li Yun's talent that is better? Or is it the background of the Beijing circle that is invincible? The answer to this question is at this moment.
In this time of The Great Wall and I Am Not a God of Medicine.
Can come up with an answer.
"The Beijing circle versus the Li circle, the old circle versus the new circle, the old order versus the brand new order. This time we will just sit back and watch what the result will be."
At this moment, Tang Min crossed his hands and pondered.
Li Yun, a young man with amazing talent.
Every decision he made seemed to be filled with a madness that was unique to him.
All those unwise and crazy decisions eventually led to one thing, that is, Li Yun became more and more powerful, until it became the current size called Li Quan.
The result of the crazy decision is today's excellent ending.
It is admirable, but it is also a path that cannot be replicated, and it is also a crazy path that cannot be replicated.
"Even if Li Yun falls here, it doesn't mean he is not powerful. It only means that the older generation is still as skilled as before."
Wang Jinghua next to her was watching here.
She was somewhat impressed. At this point, they could only be spectators and watch the intersection of the two powerful circles, the old and the new.
"This time I am not involved in any of the parties involved. I am just a spectator, watching and witnessing, comparing his courage and strength with that of the old money in the Beijing circle, who is stronger."
Tang Min's eyes were somewhat complicated at this time.
The Shanghai circle will not participate this time, but just want to watch from the sidelines and see who is the strongest one.
It is the new strong ones who pull down the status of the older generation.
Or the strongest of the older generation still sits on the highest throne.
"That's great. You don't have to take sides, but for me and me, it's different. At this premiere, we will overwhelm Li Yun with our momentum." Wang Jinghua sighed softly.
Starting from the premiere.
All the major movie stars in the circle are taking sides.
Is it the Beijing circle or the Li circle?
You can easily tell the difference by going to whose premiere.
Tang Min then discovered.
The Beijing circle is about to completely divide into camps.
"The Jing circle and the Li circle, the oldest circle and the newest circle, it's very interesting, isn't it?"
"Is it interesting? I don't think so. I just think that the current era is really bad. There is no chance for young people to develop fairly and justly."
The Hong Kong River and the Baizhu Ginza Building, high-rise buildings that have been here since the British era, have witnessed the changes of the times, from the sun that never sets to the sun that sets, and then to the Oriental Dragon, witnessing the ownership of this land and its ups and downs.
A rare visitor came here today.
Liu Lili, and next to her is Cheng Shilong, and Zhou Xingxing, they are actually old acquaintances.
They had known each other for a long time, especially Cheng Shilong, who had a lot of interactions with Liu Lili when filming "The Forbidden Kingdom".
"Times are not so fair. Times develop in a spiral and rise upward. Isn't it a bit naive to talk about fairness now?" Liu Lili retorted lightly.
Of course I know it’s unfair, but this is how the world is. It will not give in to you just because you stagnate.
There is no such good thing.
"So, you don't support Li Yun? That's right, Ms. Liu, you are a stakeholder in Hollywood." Zhou Xingxing looked at Liu Lili and said.
"It's not a question of whether I support it or not. From a standpoint, I support The Great Wall, which makes the most sense. After all, I also benefit from the Sino-US co-production."
"Then what are you doing here this time?" Cheng Shilong raised his eyebrows. This time, it was Liu Lili who asked them out.
She came to Hong Kong in person, so we should give her some face and meet her.
"I came here this time for no other reason than to confirm one thing with you."
Liu Lili was looking at Cheng Shilong and Zhou Xingxing with burning eyes at this moment.
These two are true superstars.
In the pure field of acting, his status in Chinese-speaking countries is comparable to that of Zhang Mouzi.
This is almost impossible in today's era.
It was a miracle that only their era could create.
"What's up?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Do you really think that Li Yun has the potential to win? If you think it's possible, please give me some face."
"What face?"
"Go to the premiere of Li Yun's movie."
Under the shocked gazes of the two men, Liu Lili said something completely opposite to what she had said.
Lu Haishi sent invitations to half of the big names in the entertainment industry.
These people include actors, directors, well-known screenwriters and musicians, but most of them are people in the entertainment industry.
This is an action that will not affect the box office trend and word of mouth.
This is not an out-of-the-box move.
This can only be regarded as Lu Haishi and the Beijing circle taking this opportunity to eliminate dissidents and to distinguish who continues to submit to their status and who has different ideas in their hearts.
The meaning is very simple. Loyalty is not absolute, and it is absolutely disloyal. You can't not come. If you don't come, it represents your position. "This Beijing circle is really overbearing and troublesome."
Liu Hewei was having a headache at this time. Although he was a member of the CCTV circle and theoretically did not need to be afraid of these Beijing people, he still had many old acquaintances in the Beijing circle and did have a lot of connections there.
I know a lot of people.
"It's indeed quite domineering, but hasn't this place always been like this? They were like this before, too." Chen Jianbo was not surprised at this point, he just stated his position so clearly.
This is the first time.
This forces you to make a choice.
After all, they chose the Beijing circle that represents the old forces . The new generation replaces the old things. This should be the eternal truth, but this truth is not entirely accurate.
What I give you is yours.
If I don’t give it to you, how can it be yours? Obviously, the Beijing circle does not want to be the leader of this trend.
He was also thinking about changes, and achieving his own results in the midst of changes, such as with "The Great Wall".
They are also seeking change and are not blindly abiding by old rules. This is the most powerful thing about these Beijing guys. Although they are greedy for their power and status, they are not ignorant and corrupt. On the contrary, they are very sober and aware of the truth that if they do not change, they will regress.
That’s why we have “The Great Wall”.
A special effects work co-produced by China and the United States, the ultimate effect produced by the combination of script and special effects.
"We old guys can just sit back and watch with an ambiguous attitude."
Chen Jianbo decided at this time that just standing by and watching this time might be the right choice and the right thing to do.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and as someone from the television industry, he doesn't really want to get involved in the affairs of the film industry.
Liu Hewei was silent at this time.
"Dying to Survive" has its own popularity.
This popularity may be the chemical reaction brought about by the intersection of a newly emerging circle and an old circle.
Including "The Great Wall".
"I didn't expect that we could even save the cost of publicity and promotion. It seems that everyone is quite interested in this. Well, well, let them, let them see it, let everyone witness that the old wave is still the old wave, and we can continue to be the huge wave instead of being hit on the beach by the small waves."
Zhang Mou was actually somewhat happy at this time. He felt a sense of pleasure and a boiling feeling of blood for the attention paid to this business.
I haven't felt this way in many years.
This feeling is the feeling after finding the opponent.
At this time, Zhang Mouzi also threw himself into the promotional activities with loud drums and gongs, quietly waiting for the upcoming National Day period.
"After this time, you will completely cut off ties with the Beijing circle, whether you admit it or not. You now feel like you are an enemy of the entire circle, and I'm afraid that not many people will stand on your side by then."
The "director" touched his chin next to Li Yun.
He seemed to be watching what Li Yun was doing with great interest.
This time, the battle between "Dying to Survive" and "The Great Wall" is not just the usual battle in terms of box office, reputation, and public opinion.
It is also given special significance because of the alternation between the old and new circles, and the old circles force people in the industry to make choices and support it.
When this happens, it feels like the whole world is our enemy.
"You don't understand what it means to keep a low profile. Your arrogant behavior will only destroy yourself in the end."
"What are you mumbling about? I wonder if you are lacking love." Li Yun scratched his ear and said with a hint of sarcasm.
The director's eyes immediately darkened.
"I'm just stating an objective fact. Do you think they will stand on the same side as you?"
"You seem to have always felt that this world is driven by profit, and that everything is for profit."
"Isn't it? People of noble birth remain noble, people who sit in high places remain high, and ants remain ants. This is the truth of this world, a truth that comes naturally. What do you think of this truth?"
At this time, the director looked at Li Yun seriously.
He seemed to be certain of one thing: Li Yun, who had been advancing bravely, seemed to be going to fall this time, and it seemed that he would fall quite hard . He was very stubborn and believed that this was the right thing to do.
Have some emotional intelligence, make more friends, instead of putting yourself on an island where no one helps you, lest things become ugly when the premiere comes.
It has reached the point where there is hardly any visitor.
Li Yun just smiled and said, "There are few visitors."
Maybe, but the path I follow will offend people.
In other words, no matter what path you take, you will offend people.
Climbing up is a sin in itself.
It is a kind of sin.
The old and the new take over, the new and the old are handed over.
The new order challenges the old order.
"Then let's wait and see the release of the movie. 'Dying to Survive'."
