Chapter 529: A Joke

~14 min read 2,647 words

"The Queen Who Wears Chanel" passed the review smoothly, but the attention of the GD Bureau is no longer on this movie, but on another script.

Compared with the imported culture of fashion, the new script given by Miss Luo Quan is full of Chinese flavor, and the quality is surprisingly high.

In the past, after Deputy Director He got the script, he had to discuss it with Director Zhao above.

However, because Director Zhao has outstanding work, he is about to be promoted, and Deputy Director He will also take his place.

Although there are still some details in the work that have not been fully handed over, now the GD Bureau is basically decided by Deputy Director He Tao.

So after studying the script for a night, He Tao called other leaders in the bureau together for a meeting the next afternoon. The main content of the meeting was to discuss whether to treat the script "Farewell My Concubine" as a key project.

As the saying goes, the new official takes three fires. After He Tao was promoted to director, he also wanted to make some fame.

Chinese films have not produced films that are famous internationally for a long time. "Wolf Warrior 2" is barely half, but it is only self-entertainment for Chinese people at home and abroad, and it has not won any awards internationally.

If he can produce a film that can win international awards after taking office, that is a solid political achievement, and it will definitely play a huge spur to the current Chinese film and television circle.

He Tao is a leader who wants to make a difference. If there is any way to change the current situation of the film industry, he is still very willing to try.

The "Farewell My Concubine" that Miss Luo Quan gave him this time is a very good script at first glance, telling the story of a small person struggling in the tide of history and finally being liberated.

This story has depth, the background is thick enough, the dramatic conflict is extremely intense, and it is definitely worthy of being a masterpiece!

It is precisely because "Farewell My Concubine" has the potential to become a masterpiece that He Tao dare not make a decision easily and let Miss Luo Quan play alone.

For him, this is the last script he has seen in recent years, and it is also a script that China hopes to achieve results internationally. He is not sure whether Miss Luo Quan has such skills to film the movie well.

Of course, judging from Miss Luo Quan's past resume, there is nothing to doubt about her ability, but after all, she is one person. No matter how big He Tao is, he cannot let Miss Luo Quan complete all the filming of the movie alone.

But it doesn't matter. The most lacking thing in China is elite talents in all walks of life. As long as the GD Bureau speaks, it can soon form an "all-star" crew.

And this meeting is mainly to discuss what kind of team should be formed to be responsible for filming this movie.

However, at the beginning of the meeting, everyone's opinions were not unified, and the disputes needed to be resolved one by one. The most important thing is the background problem of the movie, followed by the subject matter.

There are too many taboos in this, and each one taken out alone is enough to directly ban the movie and even ban the director.

The excellence of the book cannot be denied, but if it is really filmed, it is almost impossible to pass the review, let alone release.

However, at the turn of the century, there were quite a few similar films in China, and they were also sensitive in subject matter and large in scale. It was impossible to pass the review and show them at all.

However, the director who filmed the movie also understood that filming this was aimed at the international film awards, which belongs to losing money and earning fame.

The GD Bureau is also closed with one eye for this kind of thing that wins glory for the country. The script can pass, but the release is impossible, and even various resources have to be found by fans on the foreign network themselves.

It's just that the policy has loosened, and many movies in the past can be easily searched on several major video websites, and they are no longer so-called banned films.

However, this does not mean that the policy has loosened to the point where movies with the subject matter of "Farewell My Concubine" can be released.

Filming is definitely possible. The script has been studied by Deputy Director He Tao. There is no place to smuggle private goods, and it completely records the appearance of that era from an objective perspective.

However, the hope of release is still relatively slim. The key is that the investment of such a masterpiece is at the level of hundreds of millions. If you throw so much money in and can't be released in China, it is very likely that you will lose everything.

With the virtue of domestic film investors who don't see profit and don't get up early, they are definitely extremely active in spending hundreds of millions to invite traffic stars to film rotten movies, but spending hundreds of millions just to compete for these international awards, I guess no rational investor would do this.

There used to be an 81 factory that could do things that lose money and earn shouts, but this factory stopped production last year, which means that there is no other way.

After a morning meeting, a less ideal result was finally reached. The movie can be filmed and even not cut, but whether it can be released depends on what the final film is like.

Moreover, it is highly likely that investors will be responsible for their own profits and losses. The GD Bureau can help get some subsidies at most, which is estimated to be less than a fraction of the investment.

He Tao notified Miss Luo Quan of the result truthfully by email. The reason why he didn't call was mainly because he felt ashamed in his heart and couldn't open this mouth. After thinking about it, it was better to type.

In the email, he expressed that the GD Bureau is still very optimistic about the movie and can provide some help, such as finding actors and film shooting staff, but others can only talk about it later.

This later, I guess I don't know how long it will be.

Soon, Miss Luo Quan replied:

"As long as Director He lets me film, I will solve the investment problem myself. I lack everything, but I don't lack money."

It was originally an embarrassing thing, but Miss Luo Quan's reply directly made He Tao laugh. This is too much not to take money as money.

But after thinking about the records Miss Luo Quan sold in the past two years, as well as the family background behind her, it seems that hundreds of millions is really not a big problem.

After He Tao figured it out, he laughed dumbly, still rash.

As for Miss Luo Quan, she was not too surprised by the answer she got.

She filmed "Farewell My Concubine" mainly to complete the task and win international awards. The box office level doesn't matter. Even if it can't be released, it is just using hundreds of millions to exchange for this mysterious award.

If possible, Miss Luo Quan even wanted to exchange the reward directly with RMB, directly saving the time of filming, but there is no such function.

As for choosing the movie "Farewell My Concubine", there is no other reason, because this is the domestic movie that has won the most awards in the previous life and is one of the peaks of Chinese film history.

Such a movie, who doesn't film it?

However, such a masterpiece as long as three hours needs a lot of preparation to start filming, and the speed of filming cannot be as fast as the previous few.

This kind of movie needs to be carefully polished lens by lens. If you are anxious, you can't eat hot tofu.

Of course, there is definitely no arrangement for "Farewell My Concubine" this year. The most important thing right now is the upcoming "The Queen Who Wears Chanel".

Miss Luo Quan has already arranged the relevant work to the top publicity company in the industry, and the trailer has been released. Weibo trending search has been hanging for almost a day, and the response is quite good so far.

The beautiful lead actor in the film, gorgeous clothes, and the glamorous fashion world have all aroused the interest and yearning of young people, especially young girls.

At least on Weibo, "The Queen Who Wears Chanel" has become a must-watch movie for the sisters this summer.

However, the hottest topic today is not the movie, but the World Cup final.

After a series of fierce matches, the French team finally defeated Croatia and won the championship of this Chinese World Cup.

It is not an upset ending. As early as the 2016 European Cup, this Gaul Legion had already shown its strength and talent, among which a black player playing forward performed particularly brightly.

Although the World Cup MVP was finally won by the Croatian captain, because of the outstanding performance of this captain, there was no too much objection to winning this World Cup best player, which can be regarded as a consolation prize for the runner-up.

And with the end of the World Cup, the next world-class event is the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

Compared with the World Cup, the heat of the Olympics is definitely only high and not low, and the country has always attached great importance to the Olympics?

08 Beijing Olympics, China can be said to have stunned the world from beginning to end. Not only did it win 48 gold medals, but it also contributed the opening ceremony that can be called the best in history. The video has tens of millions of views on YouTube. Whenever an Olympic-related topic is mentioned, the 08 Beijing Olympics is an unavoidable link.

In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed. Before, China's performance in the Rio Olympics was not good, and it lost many gold medals that should not have been lost. From athletes to management, they were scolded very miserably by netizens.

This kind of behavior is definitely not desirable. Since then, there have been many voices on the internet to protect athletes, asking netizens to have less criticism and more support. After all, they are also winning glory for the country.

Since then, the public opinion environment for athletes in China has finally improved somewhat.

However, this time the Tokyo Olympics must not have any mistakes. If there is another situation like Rio, I guess netizens will spray even more fiercely.

And the World Cup ended, and China achieved a historical breakthrough—winning in the World Cup, which also made netizens start to enjoy the next world-class event, hoping to see if they can break some records in the Tokyo Olympics.

When Miss Luo Quan started the live broadcast, the fans in the live broadcast room also asked her to talk about the Olympics.

After all, her reputation as a European emperor is outside. Now let her help milk it, maybe she can reap unexpected joy like the national football team later?

"I don't know about others, but we definitely have no problem with table tennis. Men's and women's singles must cover the championship and runner-up." Miss Luo Quan said confidently.

There are so many events in the Olympics, the most stable in China is probably table tennis, weightlifting and diving. These have always been strong gold-winning events, especially table tennis, which is almost a crushing existence.

During the 08 Olympics, there was a grand occasion where three national flags were raised together, and China covered the championship, runner-up and third place.

Therefore, Miss Luo Quan's confidence in saying this is quite sufficient.

However, fans certainly know this. Table tennis is the world's number one, which is something everyone on earth knows, and there is no need to emphasize it.

So Miss Luo Quan continued: "Speaking of reason, in terms of track and field, swimming and fighting, China's gold-winning points are relatively few. It happens that the Olympic Organizing Committee divides these events very finely, all kinds of mileage, all kinds of weight classes, adding up to dozens of gold medals, China basically has no competitiveness, which is really a pity."

"One said one, indeed."

"Like that boxing, what flyweight, featherweight, lightweight, middleweight, divided so finely, it makes my eyes dizzy."

"Normal, the projects that the United States is strong in, like swimming and track and field, are relatively fine. If table tennis, weightlifting and diving can also be made into so many tricks, we can at least get twenty more gold medals!"

"By the way, in terms of boxing, can Luo Bao go up and fight? The world's first female boxer is not a joke."

"Ah this, no matter how good you can fight, it is not the same level as the world's top athletes, right?"

"No joke, but as long as you have seen the video of Miss Luo Quan fighting with others, you will know that her combat effectiveness is not comparable to fighting athletes."

"The video of the battle between the two flowers and red sticks in Southeast Asia can be searched on the internet. I don't think those female athletes can do this."

"Think too much, boxing is about greeting the face. No matter how powerful Miss Luo Quan is, it is impossible to guarantee that she will not be beaten, right? I can't bear to see her face beaten by others."

"Indeed, the fists of professional boxers are not a joke. Miss Luo Quan's delicate skin and tender meat will be disfigured if she is hit."

………………

Seeing the fans discussing so concernedly, Miss Luo Quan was quite moved, but letting her participate in boxing matches at the Olympics... sounds a bit fierce, but she thinks that with her current strength, there is no big problem.

Her combat effectiveness at this time is not comparable to ordinary people. At close range, she has the confidence to dodge bullets, let alone boxers?

And she also has the "thick face" specialty, and she won't be disfigured if she is hit.

But the problem is, she can withstand a punch from others, but others may not be able to withstand her punch.

Before fighting with those thugs of the Huang family, she learned afterwards that these thugs all suffered very serious internal injuries and lay in the hospital for more than half a month before recovering.

Just this, she controlled some strength at the time. Her kind-hearted self didn't think about killing at such a moment.

And it was such a group of strong men with quite high combat effectiveness, who were seriously injured after being beaten by her. If a girl was hammered by her, that would be okay?

You know, in order to prove her martial arts, Miss Luo Quan punched through a solid wood board several centimeters thick in a New York court. Human bones will definitely not be harder than this.

Therefore, Miss Luo Quan feels that she, a BUG of human martial arts value, should not compete with normal people for this, so as not to fail to hold back her strength at that time and beat people to death on the ring.
