Chapter 368 Jing Tian: I can’t respect the Tao, but I’m good at respecting the teacher.
There are no secrets in the Spring Festival Gala.
The news that Zhen Jiecheng had opinions about Peking Opera spread like wildfire and soon spread to the opera circle, causing a lot of waves.
But for the entire literary and artistic community, opera is a minority after all. Most people don’t care about Peking opera at all, but try every means to join the feast of the Spring Festival Gala.
Directed by Yan Jiecheng! Chen Peisi is back! Zhao Clan performs!
The attention it has attracted has spread all over the country, and even spread across the ocean to the Chinese community. Although more than ten days have passed since the news was announced, the discussion is still hot. The slightest bit of news will quickly make the headlines in the entertainment section.
Companies are competing fiercely for advertising space, and their bids are getting higher and higher every day.
Celebrity artists are trying their best to get the chance to go on stage.
Not only young people, but also many people with rich experience are inquiring.
There is no way around it. The Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Snake has already been regarded as the “Super Spring Festival Gala” by the public opinion. How much traffic can be obtained by performing on stage is put aside for now. Being able to perform on stage is the most important thing! Because it is not only a reflection of professional ability, but also a display of status in the industry.
Especially among colleagues of the same level, it would be embarrassing if one of them is missing!
“Director, this is the list of Hong Kong and Taiwan artists who are interested in participating in the Spring Festival Gala this year. Please take a look.”
“If you have anything else to add, I’ll get in touch right away.”
Zhen Jiecheng took it, glanced at it, and crossed out a few eye-catching names without thinking.
Such as Jolin Tsai, Hebe Tien, Vivian Hsu and so on.
“This year, singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan will sing a medley for me: “My Motherland” and “My Motherland and I”!”
“If you are willing to take the job, please wait for notification. The number of places is limited, and there are more applicants than vacancies.”
“For those who are unwilling to answer or are vague, record all their responses and compile them into a separate book.”
“Director Zhen, you want to go upwards.”
“What are you thinking? Am I the kind of person who tells tales?” Zhen Jiecheng rolled his eyes. “After the Spring Festival Gala, find a time to make it public. Don’t exaggerate, delete or modify it. Just upload it as it is.”
“By the way, there’s no need to notify Jie Lun. I have other plans for his show!”
“I understand, director.” Upon hearing this, the Yangshi staff quickly straightened their backs and responded loudly.
Looking at Zhen Jiecheng’s back, I shuddered for no reason.
Shit! You might as well be telling tales.
Although it would leave a bad impression on the higher-ups, for the sake of unity, they would turn a blind eye.
You, on the other hand, are directly trying to throw the blame on those fence-sitters who make a living in the mainland.
You have such a dark heart. Emmm, so red!
“Director, Mr. Pan Changjiang, and others.”
“No, there’s more!” Zhen Jiecheng waved his hand, “I think it’s okay, bring your work! Lao Zhao and Lao Chen both have to take the exam, and if they don’t make a good joke, they’ll have to leave! What, who else wants to be selected internally?”
“Announce that all language programs will be based on ability! Qualifications and fame won’t work!”
“I have a bad memory and can’t recite my resume. So I’ll use my eyes and ears to see if it’s a mule or a horse, and pull it out for a walk!”
“Okay, Director! I’ll go right away.”
“Wait!” Zhen Jiecheng stretched out his hand to stop them. “Call Teacher Feng Gong and Teacher Guo Da and tell them that I’m treating them to a meal.”
“Director, Alibaba’s Beijing manager wants to schedule a meeting with you to discuss the cooperation between Alibaba and the Spring Festival Gala.”
“Why do you want to meet me? Shouldn’t we talk to the advertising department about cooperation?”
“Emm, then I don’t know.”
“Okay, once I finish this phase of work, we’ll set the date for Saturday.”
Since Singles’ Day on November 11, , the nickname of West Lake Ma has become more and more famous. He has competed with Penguin Ma and made it into the top ten richest people in mainland China, more than half of whom are real estate developers.
Zhen Jiecheng was not surprised at all that Alibaba came to him, and the cooperation issues they wanted to discuss were definitely not just about the Spring Festival Gala.
Against the backdrop of coal bosses being treated as suckers and being blatantly ripped off even after paying full tuition fees, and therefore tightening their wallets, a new era is brewing in the entertainment industry.
Internet giants are ready to move, and entertainment industry bosses are gearing up for action.
The former is trying to control the flow of traffic and explore the blue ocean of entertainment, while the latter is impatiently preparing a knife and planning to eat again.
“Tsk tsk tsk, you don’t have the fate of Hollywood, but you have the disease of Hollywood.”
“Even Hollywood was ultimately indirectly controlled by Wall Street through capital, wasn’t it?”
Zhen Jiecheng smacked his lips.
“When all the coal bosses stop serving you, you will know what it means to regret your decision, and you will know how lovely it is to understand art!”
Zhen Jiecheng was oblivious to the outside world. He had just finished filming “The Father Trapped in Time” and then seamlessly joined the Spring Festival Gala. He was so busy that he had no time to get involved in the ups and downs in the circle and outside the circle.
No one has mentioned the “stabbing in the back” incident at the beginning of the year, but the separation of the golden boy and girl Dong Jie and Pan Yueming is in the news again.
Lao Mouzi and Zhang Weiping had a complete falling out, and then an 1850 million railway promotional video was exposed.
In an exclusive interview, Zhang Dazui said frankly that Lao Mouzi’s “leaving without saying goodbye” made him sad and angry, and said that Lao Mouzi “is not a person who can be worried about.”
Huang Shengyi went to Northeast China and performed a Errenzhuan with Song Xiaobao. Out of courtesy, Lao Zhao praised Huang Shengyi for her excellent singing, dancing, fighting and dancing, which fully met the standards of Errenzhuan actors, and jokingly said that he would consider taking her as his apprentice.
Unexpectedly, Huang Shengyi knelt down, which frightened Lao Zhao. He immediately bent down to help her, saying “I can’t do that”.
I have to say that Huang Shengyi, as the former campus beauty of Beijing Film Academy, is still quite something.
The legs are long, the buttocks are round, and the curves are soft.
I believe that Lao Zhao must have felt a lot from his high vantage point.
Amidst all the turmoil, time entered November. Tiny Times, which was “invested” by Yang Mi Studio, began to select a release date, and finally decided to release it in late November at the suggestion of Zhen Jiecheng.
Subsequently, “Lost in Thailand” directed by Jing Tian was also confirmed to be released to compete for the December box office.
As the film promotion kicked off, “The Banquet” which was scheduled to be released on November 11th was released one after another, so even if Lu Chuan shouted at the top of her lungs, it couldn’t make much of a splash.
“Quality! Pay attention to your quality!”
“Where’s politeness? Where’s respect?”
“What does the school motto say? Respect your teachers!”
Zhen Jiecheng, who had just rested, didn’t even bother to rest. He pointed at Yang Mi and Jing Tian and spit everywhere.
“That’s your alma mater senior!”
“Especially you, Tiantian, who applied for my postgraduate study. He is your uncle!”
“How could you do this? Is it easy for Senior Brother Lu to make a movie?”
“Wow, The Feast of Kings went to Jiangcheng for promotion, and so did Tiny Times. Senior Brother Lu went to Suzhou and Hangzhou, and Lost in Thailand came again.”
“You two connect really well!”
“If we continue like this, what should we do if Brother Lu’s work fails to meet box office expectations due to publicity issues?”
“Nowadays, the market is getting hotter and hotter, and the number of screens is increasing. Standing still is equivalent to a significant step backwards.”
“What if! What if Senior Brother Lu doesn’t even achieve a ‘Lu Chuan’? How will investors view him? How will his peers view him? How will the parrot in the communication room of Beijing Film Academy view him?”
“That’s a costume epic with an investment of nearly 100 million yuan, and it’s filled with Senior Brother Lu’s blood and flesh! If it loses a lot of money, it will indirectly reveal that the audience lacks aesthetic taste and does not understand art!”
“You will be the ones who pushed Brother Lu to the opposite side of the audience and caused misunderstandings between the two sides!” “You two go back and reflect on yourselves and make a thorough self-examination!”
“Okay, senior!” Jing Tian said yes obediently.
After walking out of the office, he grabbed Yang Mi.
“Our publicity is not enough, we need to continue to increase our efforts!”
“We must make sure that the box office of The King’s Feast falls short of expectations! We must not let Master Lu set a new box office record!”
“It would be best if Master Lu became furious, spoke without thinking, and became the opposite of the audience.”
As he said this, he patted Yang Mi’s shoulder.
“Mi Mi, you understand.”
“I’m already a director in the 100 million yuan club. If I continue to argue with Master Lu about the box office, I’ll be accused of bullying the weak and being impolite.”
“So you go and fan the flames and let Director Bi and Assistant Director Guo go compete with Master Lu. They are just the right people for the job!”
“Alas, I hope that Master Lu can understand the good intentions of me and my senior.”
Jing Tian raised his head and sighed deeply.
“It’s not a good thing to keep improving. Only when “The Banquet” fails to get the box office of “Lu Chuan”, and regresses and is hit, will we reflect deeply and draw nourishment and motivation from the pain. Then we will know shame and then be brave, ride the wind and waves, and make a big splash!”
“Mi Mi, this is how we, as students of Beijing Film Academy, practice the school motto of ‘Respect Teachers’!”
“As long as Master Lu can become a better man, it doesn’t matter if we do some trivial things and suffer some grievances of not being understood. It’s nothing!”
“Mi Mi, aren’t you right?”
Yang Mi:ヾ(д)
“Ah, yes, yes!”
“I’ll leave the box office incentives to you. As for the honors,” Jing Tian rubbed his hands expectantly, “after the Berlin Film Festival next year, you should be able to urge Uncle Lu!”
“Oh, I’m so envious!”
“I don’t know when the senior will accept the invitation to serve as the chairman of the film festival jury.”
“Then I can take my work to the competition and win a prize!”
“Wait! Director Jing!”
“What Director Jing? We are not in the same period as when we were filming Love Is Not Blind. What’s your title?” Jing Tian interrupted Yang Mi, “Mi Mi, just call me Tian Tian!”
“Okay, Tiantian.” Yang Mi nodded. “Well, it’s not good for you to receive the award like this, right? The public opinion will question its value.”
“Question? Why should I care about that?” Jing Tian curled her lips, “The important thing is to win the award! Win the three major awards in Europe!”
“Now that I have the prize, I can go fight Master Lu!”
“Besides, the photographer is my master, and the sound engineer is Senior Brother Tao Jingtao. The soundtrack can’t stand up to Jiu Shirang, but don’t we still have Teacher Zhao Jiping?”
“Art designers and lighting technicians are all old men from Western Film Studios!”
“Master Tian, you have nothing to do anyway, why not come here and be an art director? Exercise your muscles, life depends on exercise!”
“When the time comes, senior will provide me with a script, and I will go to the drama theater to find a few good actors. The quality of the finished film will definitely be top-notch!”
Jing Tian became more and more excited as she spoke, and her dimples became sweeter and sweeter.
“So, going to a film festival where senior students serve as jury chairmen is just to ensure that I can win an award, and at the same time increase the probability of winning the grand prize.”
“This is the social etiquette that is played out every year in the three major European countries. What does it have to do with the value?”
“Mi Mi, aren’t you right?”
Yang Mi: (°Д°)
“Ah, yes, yes!”
Zhen Jiecheng had no doubt at all whether Jing Tian could understand his good intentions.
This girl is more and more popular in the gang. She didn’t drink much ink, but she was full of pureness.
Especially on the point of “friendly interaction among classmates”, I understood it most thoroughly.
Based on the Beijing Film Academy director’s use of teasing light and electricity as an orthodox certification, because Jing Tian always talks about it with Guo Fan, the Zhen family lineage has to go through an additional test of unspoken rules.
That is, using Lu Chuan as a stepping stone, only by creating a double crush of box office and honors, and stepping on Lu Chuan’s head, can he secure his identity as the successor of the Zhen family.
This is also the reason why people in the circle regard Guo Fan as Zhen Jiecheng’s direct disciple, but Guo Fan has never acknowledged it, let alone regarded himself as such.
How can I survive if Lu Chuan is not destroyed?
They are all holding back their energy!
Zhen Jiecheng was very satisfied with this.
“dududu~”
“Hello, Guo Fan.”
“The post-production of ‘The Burning Sun’ has been completed for a while now. You should have rested for a while now, right?”
“Put aside what you are doing and come work for me as an assistant director for the Spring Festival Gala to gain some experience.”
“Mainly responsible for the technical team and post-support team, as well as coordinating the work of various departments.”
It is the most appropriate time to accumulate experience now. It will be difficult to consolidate the “foundation” after the Berlin Film Festival.
The reason is very simple: those who are slightly inferior do not match their ranks; those who match their ranks face competitors who are all experienced.
To put it more realistically, it’s like being stuck, unable to go up or down.
Wu Jing in “Wolf Warrior 2” and Jiaozi in “Nezha”.
It’s all like this!
Especially for dumplings, “it’s lonely at the top”. In the face of being overpraised, the only way to break the deadlock is to produce one amazing work after another, but how easy is that?
Zhen Jiecheng didn’t want his students to suffer the same situation, so he helped them make up for it in advance.
“Okay, teacher. I’ll go to Yangshi tomorrow.”
“Well, see you tomorrow. By the way, come with me to meet a client on Saturday.”
After hanging up the phone, Zhen Jiecheng picked up the “Collect Five Blessings” plan he had just written. What was different from his previous life was that in terms of the difficulty of obtaining it, the Dedication Blessing was the easiest, followed by the Friendship Blessing, the Prosperity Blessing, and the Harmony Blessing.
The scarcest one is the patriotic blessing.
“Since the West Lake Ma will do it sooner or later, why don’t I come up with something original to add more fuel to the Spring Festival Gala!”
“You can also use it to operate the machine!”
Alibaba is not the only company involved in mobile payment. Penguin Ma is promoting cooperation between WeChat and Tenpay to launch WeChat payment. Qiangge is also striving for a virtual operator license. In addition, Baidu is also planning to enter the mobile payment field.
Jiwufu used the Spring Festival Gala to promote the app to the whole nation, and its advertising effect and output value are immeasurable.
Especially this year’s Spring Festival Gala is the “Super Spring Festival Gala”!
Alibaba’s Beijing manager just called and said that Mr. Ma was on a business trip to Beijing on Friday. So he personally represented Alibaba to participate in the cooperation negotiations on Saturday.
Guests are welcome! As the host, how could Zhen Jiecheng not prepare a surprise and show his courtesy?
“Damn it, if Mr. Ma is happy, he won’t pay me a sky-high director’s fee to film “Kung Fu Yoga” in the future, right?”
