    Chapter 224

    Chen Guofu

    On the evening of December 1st, Mai Chong He Ping and Fan Bingbing, who was filming a commercial in Taiwan, attended the premiere of "Lanling Mask" at the Golden Horse Film Festival.

    Last year, "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" directed by He Ping flopped in Hong Kong and Taiwan. It was not ideal both in terms of criticism and box office, which made him very heartbroken. This time, it made a comeback with the support of Tianxia Media. Tianchang International recruited in Hong Kong and Taiwan  We have recruited many publishing talents, and the vigorous promotion work of "Lanling Mask" has been launched in advance. He Ping, who is not good at this, does not have to worry about it. He just took Mai Chong and Fan Bingbing to Taichung, Tainan, and Taipei respectively.  The film was screened three times in Beijing, with a huge number of viewers, and the effect was very sensational. Taiwanese entertainment media paid a lot of attention to the film. Audiences who were lucky enough to buy tickets said they had never seen such a refreshing war.  Film critics who have watched the film said: This is a war film with a rich plot and first-class visual effects. It is a rare masterpiece among similar Chinese-language films.

    "Old He, it seems that you can make a comeback this time. Congratulations." A middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses sat opposite He Ping. This was in a tea room, and Mai Chong was also sitting there.  On the side, listen to these two uncles drinking tea and chatting.

    This middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses is named Chen Guofu, a famous Taiwanese filmmaker. Chen Guofu is not a film professional, but he has become famous in the film critic circle in the 1980s and is the initiator of the first Golden Horse International Film Festival.  One, who started making movies in the 1990s, is known as the founder and enlightener of the "new mainstream film movement".

    Like He Ping, he is also employed by Columbia and now serves as the production director of Asia. He has gradually moved behind the scenes and successfully obtained overseas financial support for many domestic films. Previously, Feng Xiaogang's "Big Shot" and now Stephen Chow's "Kung Fu"  He is behind film projects such as "Kekexili" and "A World Without Thieves". He is very close to Huayi Brothers. Of course, this relationship is also because of his colleague He Ping.  Please keep in mind that when He Ping arrived in Taipei, he naturally wanted to bother this old friend and introduce Mai Chong to him. In the entertainment industry, no matter who he is, connections are very important.

    "Old Chen, I don't believe it no matter how much the Taiwanese newspapers praise this movie, but I feel confident when you say this, haha." He Ping smiled and took a sip of tea.

    Chen Guofu also laughed. He looked at Mai Chong and asked, "Wheat, how is the tea here? Is it to your liking?" He and He Ping were old acquaintances, but he didn't ignore Mai Chong. He saw that  This young man's future is limitless, and he also wants to make friends. Many friends lead to many paths. As I said before, connections are very important.

    Mai Chong smiled: "Well, not bad. Although I don't drink much tea and I don't have much taste, I can still feel that this tea is very refreshing and very different from the tea I have drunk before."

    "Of course, this is the Alishan high mountain oolong tea that is unique to Taiwan. This tea has a mellow taste and a light and elegant fragrance. It is the most famous high-quality tea in Taiwan and is not available in the mainland." Chen Guofu boasted.  .

    "Oh, is it true? I wonder if there are ready-made teas sold here. I have an elder who likes to taste tea, and I want to take some back to him." The elder here in Mai Chong is talking about Lai Chaoyang, not Secretary Zhang.  Did Duoduo miss herself? It's time for her to go see that little girl. It's always not good to go empty-handed. It's just right to bring some tea to the old man.

    "Yes, I know the boss here very well. I'll ask him to pack a bag for you to take back later." Chen Guofu chuckled.

    Next, Chen Guofu and He Ping talked about this year's Golden Horse Awards. He Ping is an outsider in this year's Golden Horse Awards, but Chen Guofu is in the game, because "Kekexili" directed by Lu Chuan, which he produced, won five nominations at the Golden Horse Awards, including  The most important awards include Best Feature Film, Best Director and Best Actor. It can be described as infinite glory. This film and Wong Kar-wai's "2046" are the biggest hits at this year's Golden Horse Awards. Wong Kar-wai is the winner of the Chinese-language film, but  It¡¯s hard to say who will win this time. These were Chen Guofu¡¯s exact words.

    Chen Guofu is not a humble person. He feels that the film he produced is a good film, and he also feels that it will win something at the Golden Horse Awards, so he dares to say such affirmative words to He Ping.  However, there are no absolutes in any film award. Many movies that the public thinks are impossible to win but are just running around often end up winning trophies, whether they are China¡¯s Golden Rooster, Golden Statue, Golden Horse, or foreign Oscars, Golden Palms, and Golden Bears.  , the judges¡¯ minds are the most unpredictable, nothing is 100%.

    At the end of the conversation between the two, He Ping mentioned that he might maintain a long-term cooperative relationship with Tianxia Pictures, provided that this time the box office was not screwed up. After all, it was a strong film company that was willing to spend money on improving film equipment and technology.  It is very rare. From this point of view, Tianxia is more far-sighted than Huayi Brothers, and he is more optimistic about the former.

      Chen Guofu also laughed and said that he might follow in the footsteps of He Ping, "Maybe I will go north to develop my career. Then brother, you have to take me in." Now the mainland film market is beginning to flourish, and there is great potential in the future.  , Chen Guofu does not want to shrink to a small place like Taiwan and work for Colombia. He is talented, capable and ambitious, and he needs a bigger stage.

    "Brother, you are joking. If you go to the mainland, I don't know how many companies want to steal your piece of Tang Monk meat." He Ping and Chen Guofu are colleagues. He was still impressed by the abilities of this Taiwanese director who entered Colombia a year after him.  Very trustworthy.

    In the evening, the host Chen Guofu invited He Ping and Mai Chong to have a meal of authentic Taiwanese specialties. The next day, December 4, was the time for the Golden Horse Awards. He Ping's mission was over and he could return to the mainland.  Well, he is not a lively person, so he will not go to the Golden Horse. However, Mai Chong is an invited award guest and has to go.  At the airport, Mai Chong said goodbye to He Ping. He Ping transferred to Hong Kong and returned to Beijing, while Mai Chong took Mu Weiyu to Taichung.

    "Hello, Fatty Ou's phone number." Owen called before officially boarding the plane, but the phone was in Mu Weiyu's hand. She even called it "Celebrities with assistants answering the phone seem to have status." Now Xiaoyu is getting more and more  She looks more and more like Liu Yifei's mother, and Mai Chong understands Sissi's hardships more and more. They are really a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks who share the same problem.

    "Hey, Fatty Ou, what's going on? I'm about to get on the plane." Mai Chong said.

    Owen said succinctly: "The first-day box office of "A World Without Thieves" is out. Do you want to listen?"

    Only then did Mai Chong remember that after partial screenings in several major cities, and with its huge reputation and numerous positive reviews, "A World Without Thieves" had begun nationwide filming at midnight yesterday and officially entered the Lunar New Year slot. If it had followed the previous system,  It is impossible to obtain an accurate single-day box office so quickly. China Film and Television will not specifically calculate the first-day box office of a certain movie. However, now that there is China Ticket Network, although the website will not calculate the box office of a movie every day.  It is posted for people to browse, but it is still easy for theater tycoons like Irving and others to check it, so this morning the first-day box office data of "A World Without Thieves" has appeared in the mainland media, but it is only as far away as Taiwan.  Mai Chong just couldn't see it.

    "Of course you have to listen." Although the audience of "A World Without Thieves" is very different from that of "Lanling Mask", its results can also be used as a reference for "Lanling Mask" to a certain extent.
