Chapter 82 Red Envelope
Entering the CPPCC Auditorium, many celebrities and artists have already arrived.
Han Sanping also arrived.
Several people surrounded him, like stars over the moon.
Seeing Li Chen come in, he frowned slightly: He had already arrived before this guy came.
Li Chen and the crew went over to say hello to Han Sanping.
Li Xuejian and Lu Rui exchanged pleasantries with Han Sanping.
Huang Xiaoming and Zhao Wei, who were beside Han Sanping, took the initiative to talk to Li Chen.
"Director Li, I haven't had a chance to congratulate you on winning the Palme d'Or. It's not too late." Zhao Wei said with a smile.
“Thank you.”
Li Chen's indifference made Zhao Wei a little uncomfortable and glanced at Huang Xiaoming beside him.
Didn’t you say that Director Li is easy to deal with?
Huang Xiaoming said calmly: "Director Li, congratulations, today I can finally unveil the mystery of this family of thieves."
"I can't wait. Haha."
Seeing Zhao Wei, Li Chen suddenly remembered that she would also be Teacher Tian's student in the future.
It's fucking disgusting. She must not buy the copyright to Youth from him on the pretext of friendship.
I won’t buy it myself.
"You've been doing well recently. I heard that Director Feng's Night Banquet has finalized the actors. I also want to congratulate you." Li Chen said with a smile.
"Thank you, Director Li will take care of you in the future."
After a few words of greeting, Huang Xiaoming and Zhao Wei walked away in good humor.
Yang Siwei is now at ease with this kind of situation.
It is also easy to communicate with these celebrities and artists.
Li Chen glanced over there and saw that Yang Siwei was already chatting with Wang Jinghua.
Liu Dehua and Liang Jiahui were also on the side.
It seems that Liang Jiahui will still follow Wang Jinghua and leave Huayi.
"Why are you always late?" Han Sanping said displeasedly.
"Director Han, how did I know you came so early." Li Chen said with a smile.
"Director Yang will be here later, as well as people from Shanghai Film Academy. Don't be confused." There was something in Han Sanping's words.
“Don’t worry, Director Han, it’s enough for Rongchen Pictures’ partner to be a state-owned enterprise, China Film Group Corporation.” Li Chen’s heart was clear.
I met Shanghai Film’s Ren Zhonglun last time at Zhang Side’s premiere.
At that time, Han Sanping introduced Li Chen and Ren Zhonglun as one of his own.
One after another, the guests invited by Han Sanping arrived.
Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan also came with Chen Kun.
Looking at Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan walking hand in hand.
Li Chen estimated that the two of them would not mention Yang Mi.
After all, Yang Mi can now be described as unknown.
Wait until the release of The Condor next year to make a splash.
"Li Chen, thank you for what happened that day." Li Shaohong smiled.
"I didn't do anything, so you're welcome, Mr. Li." Li Chen said nonchalantly.
Li Shaohong smiled and said nothing more, turned around and went aside.
It seems that Li Xiaowan still has something to say.
"The company has decided to terminate the contract with Yang Mi. Director Li probably won't sign a contract with her." Li Xiaowan joked.
The termination of Yang Mi’s contract is not a big deal.
The termination fee for Rong Xingda will not be large.
After all, the company didn’t waste much resources on Yang Mi.
After communicating with Yang Mi, there was no room for maneuver.
She and Li Shaohong discussed it and the company would take the initiative to terminate the contract.
Minimize the impact.
But the premise is that Li Chen’s Rongchen Pictures cannot sign Yang Mi.
Otherwise, this matter will definitely ferment and even be hyped by the media.
It will be difficult to estimate the impact on Rong Xingda at that time.
"Mr. Li, contract termination and signing are normal business behaviors of the company."
"I think there is no need to mix other factors into it."
"That day I I made it very clear when I called you.”
“I’ll say it again, Yang Mi was not qualified to talk to me about this at that time.”
"But times have changed, and no one can predict what will happen in the future."
"I'll go to Director Han's place to socialize, Mr. Li, see you later."
Meet Li Chenyi Stepping away, Li Xiaowan and Li Shaohong, who were not far away, looked at each other and shook their heads slightly in disappointment.
But Li Chen is actually already concerned about this matter.
After what Li Xiaowan said just now, Li Chen understood that this matter could not be handled well.
It's likely to be a very bad start.
Maybe artists from many companies will imitate Yang Mi.
They terminated their contracts with the company one after another, and then switched to Rongchen Pictures.
And some film and television companies may also be more unscrupulous in poaching.
For example, Hua Yi, the outside world is now rumoring that Hua Yi is interested in Rong Xingda’s Zhang Jingchu.
It's like the catfish effect and the Doninos.
If Li Chen really signs Yang Mi, a series of chain reactions will cause a huge earthquake in Rong Xingda.
Li Chen knew that almost all the artists who left Rong Xingda in later generations became popular.
Whether it is Chen Kun whose contract has expired and will not be renewed, Zhou Xun.
Or maybe it was Zhang Jingchu who was poached.
As well as Jiang Mengjie and Yangyang who directly went to court.
This is a problem. If it is not handled properly, it will definitely not be a good thing for Rongchen Pictures’ reputation in the industry.
The premiere is still going on, and the poet and his wife have to come because of their dignity.
Li Chen is not like a poet. He is a guest, so he naturally greets him with a smile.
Chen Hong felt better, but the poet still looked innocent.
At 6:30 p.m., Director Yang also made his final appearance.
Han Sanping doesn’t want to talk nonsense, let’s talk about everything after watching the premiere.
Anyone sitting at the same table as Li Chen is a big shot in the industry who can't help but shake his feet.
Mr. Bao from Wanda Cinema, the President of the Film Association, the two CEOs of China Film, Lao Wang from Guangwang, Lao Mouzi and the poet
"Li Chen, good job." Zhang Yimou smiled.
"Director Zhang, thank you for the award," Li Chen replied with a smile.
"Old Tian has a successor."
Tian Zhuangzhuang smiled and said nothing.
Soon, the movie started to show. After watching the movie, everyone understood that this family of thieves deserved to win the Palme d'Or.
Although there are some plots in it that are open to discussion, such as teaching children to steal and burying corpses without repaying them.
But just talking about the script, if you make these old guys here thirty or forty years younger, they won’t be able to figure it out.
The seemingly successive coincidences are supported by strict logic.
No wonder it is now rumored that Li Chen is the number one screenwriter in China.
Applause rang out, and Han Sanping, Li Chen and the leading actors of the crew walked onto the stage.
The host first asked Han Sanping.
"Director Han, we have all watched the movie Shoplifters, and the story is very exciting."
"The shining points of human nature are also presented one by one at the end. Now we can tell us about its success in Cannes The transaction price is here.”
“The media friends and guests at the scene, as well as the majority of netizens, can’t wait to know.”
The host smiled and asked something that everyone was concerned about. problem.
Han Sanping smiled proudly, and Li Chen looked at each other and smiled.
Taking the microphone handed over by the host, he smiled angrily.
“Yes.”
“This family of thieves has set a new record for domestic films to go overseas.”
“The transaction price was 49 million US dollars, which was China Film’s highest profit since its establishment. The best domestic film.”
The audience was immediately shocked by this number and went into an uproar.
Nearly 400 million yuan, this number is too scary.
The 400 million has paid the tax that should be paid, and it is a matter of fact that the two producers should divide it in half.
This kind of profit is really the envy of many film and television company CEOs.
They have worked hard for a year and invested in several movies, but maybe they will lose all their money.
Even if they make money, they rarely have a net profit of hundreds of millions.
Han Sanping was very satisfied with the exclamations from the audience.
Then he took advantage of the situation and said: "We at China Film will spare no effort to support domestic films going overseas."
"I hope that the next film that breaks the overseas transaction price of Shoplifters will not keep us waiting. Too long."
"Thank you, Director Han, for your answer, and I sincerely hope that our film industry in China will get better and better," the host said with a smile.
"Next, I would also like to ask the teacher Xuejian who is the emperor in Cannes."
Han Sanping handed the microphone to Li Xuejian.
The host rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Teacher Xuejian."
"Looking at your expression, you just learned about the transaction price of the thief family, right?"
"Well, yes." Li Xuejian smiled.
"Then do you regret that the pay will be less?"
The guests in the audience laughed out loud and looked at Li Chen and Li Xuejian.
Han Sanping also laughed.
Li Xuejian glanced at Li Chen, who smiled and nodded slightly.
Li Xuejian smiled and said: "It will be less."
Everyone in the audience clapped and laughed.
But Li Xuejian changed the topic and said with a smile: "However, Li Chen has already sent me a red envelope."
"It's not less than the film salary!"
Audience There was another burst of laughter. Unexpectedly, Li Xuejian also made a joke with everyone.
It seems that this red envelope is really not small.
Huang Xiaoming in the audience took the lead in applauding, while Yang Siwei cheered from the side: "Director Li is so angry!"
The host also laughed and said: "Can Teacher Xuejian reveal the specific amount?"
< br>Everyone in the audience really likes this host more and more.
We ask questions that everyone is concerned about.
Li Xuejian replied with a smile: "Confidential."
The host had an idea and came to the youngest Guan Xiaotong.
"Little boy, how much is your red envelope?"
Guan Xiaotong, who was under eight years old, suddenly turned red.
“I, I don’t know either, but I know that dad bought an Audi car.”
“Mom was very happy and said that brother Li Chen is much more generous than dad... …”
Haha
The audience burst into applause and laughter, and Li Chen also laughed.
The host also smiled and said: "Well, I want to change my career."
"Director Li, next time something like this happens again, I will have a daughter too."
Huang Xiaoming, who was sitting with Yang Sisi, applauded and asked with a smile.
"Si Si, there are not many bosses like Director Li in the industry. You are lucky."
Yang Si Si and You Rongyan laughed: "That's because my boss has the temperament to treat money like dirt. He’s so handsome.”
“Of course, he’s not even as good as Brother Xiaoming, haha”
All the leading actors were teased in turn.
Finally it was Li Chen’s turn.
The host asked a question that was difficult for Li Chen to answer.
"Director Li, Director Chen won the first Palme d'Or for Chinese people twelve years ago."
"Twelve years later, you won the Palme d'Or again."
"Do you have anything to say to Director Chen about this?"
Chen Kaige, who was sitting at Li Chen's table in the audience, kept the corners of his mouth raised at fifteen degrees in a graceful manner.
But at this moment, it is gradually evening out.
Chen Hong is still graceful and graceful.
Seems not to care about this issue.
I just glanced at my husband unconsciously.
……
Everyone is turning their attention to the two Palme d'Or directors, especially Li Chen.
Li Chen chuckled and said, "Yes!"
Everyone on and off the stage, as well as the media at the scene, were immediately interested.
Li Chen and Chen Kaige looked at each other. Chen Kaige was expressionless.
Li Chen smiled calmly and said: "Director Chen, you don't look like a good person when you introduce a woman."
Haha
The audience burst into applause. Li Chen’s Tianjin accent was so flavorful.
The most rare thing is that he humorously defuses the host's attack and retaliates calmly.
Chen Kaige’s mouth curved again, and he rarely joined the crowd in applauding.
The female host smiled sheepishly.
