Courtyard: My wife is Wen Li

Time passed slowly, and while everyone was working hard, "Chainsaw" and "Fast and Furious" were released again in North America, and the time came to February 2005, and preparations for the Academy Awards began.

Films sent into competition for awards, and the companies behind them hit the ground running.

Various film companies have begun lobbying, but there is no trace of Lion Pictures among them.

Lion Pictures did send "Lord of the Rings", but it just sent it over and did not lobby for it. Instead, it was busy with the post-production of "Bourne 2" and the filming of "Hurricane 2".

Lion Pictures has no new projects and no public relations activities. At most, it is inspecting and reviewing some low-cost films to complete contracts with theaters.

This thing is so strange that the major film companies that originally planned to block it feel like their fists have hit cotton.

They didn't exert any effort at all, so how could they stop it?

There is nothing to say about the quality of "Lord of the Rings". It is indeed a good movie, but it is a group movie and a commercial one. So in terms of actors and directors, it is not easy to win awards.

It is indeed reasonable to give up, but why don’t you try hard for the filming, music, costumes, etc.?

The fact is that there is no way to make money. He Yuzhu doesn't care about the so-called awards at all. It doesn't hinder him from making money, so why should he pursue it?

He Yuzhu himself is not an actor, director, or even a producer. He does not need to pursue fame, he only pursues profit.

Awards are useless to him and may even raise the value of others, and will it eventually turn against him?

There are no new projects coming from Lion Pictures right now, so maybe that’s a good thing?

At least, their series of movies have been fixed. With reference, they can completely cope with it, avoid each other's blockbusters, and use low-cost movies to be released at the same time.

…

The two brothers, Big and Little Wang, were talking to Director Feng at this time, "Old Feng, do you think that James Wan can be filmed well?"

Director Feng was very depressed. He was the first director to collaborate with He Yuzhu on a film, but now he couldn't even say a word. He was short-sighted!

For such a small amount of money, why did I become so obsessed with it?

"I don't know if he can film it well, but he is a Chinese born abroad. Why should he film Yue Fei?" Director Feng said in a sad tone.

The king said: "Indeed, he is just a foreigner. What kind of photo can he take of Yue Fei?"

"Do you think we should go talk to Mr. He?"

Director Feng was not stupid, he shook his head and said: "No need, I don't have any contact with the mainland entertainment industry now, how can we talk about it?"

"It's obvious that there is resentment. If I go, won't it be vented directly on me?"

The king and his eldest son slandered in their hearts, you are the rightful owner, it would be best to hand you over, but the two of them did not dare to do so.

After all, they rely on Director Feng to make money!

"It is said that there is no upper limit on investment. If our actors are sent in, no matter what role they play, their status will be increased!" Xiao Wang obviously refused to give up, "I think so, since it is not convenient for Director Feng to go, then I go."

The king thought for a while and then nodded and said: "You can go, after all, we have never had any contact with him. How can we know if it is okay without contact?"

"We always have to try it. Our company is the fastest growing in the mainland. If we can participate in this production, it will undoubtedly speed up our launch speed."

"Then it's settled." Xiao Wang nodded.

Director Feng remained silent. He didn't want to express any opinions now, but he was getting to know Yue Fei privately.

…

He Yuzhu was not in a hurry, so he could give Wen Ziren a lot of time to study. Finally, Wen Ziren felt that he was ready and came directly to find He Yuzhu, and the two sides started talking.

Wen Ziren talked about some things he understood, such as Confucian culture, but it was impossible for him to fully understand the core of Confucian culture.

He Yuzhu also understands this. He himself cannot understand the core of Confucian culture. The Chinese people just imbibed it. After all, it has been passed down for thousands of years, which means it has been integrated into their bones.

It is extremely difficult to change!

"Then what are you going to do?" He Yuzhu asked.

"It is easier and simpler to express loyalty to the emperor and patriotism and what he learned from his parents. After all, we are a commercial blockbuster." Wen Ziren said: "And it is easy for Westerners to understand, after all, they were also influenced by the monarch. rule."

"They can understand things like etiquette and class."

"Then there is military training and war, which they can also understand."

He Yuzhu nodded slightly and had to say that this method was very good.

If you want to export culture, you first need to be understandable by the other party. "Translation is also convenient enough." Wen Ziren added.

"Etiquette can be understood through movements, and war does not require language, but the translation of Azolla at the end is difficult."

"After all, the text is too concise. We need to find poets in the West to help translate it, but it is impossible to match it."

"It is best to have two versions. For the version released to the public, write a poem with similar meaning in the foreign language. This can avoid the trouble of translation."

"What a great idea!" He Yuzhu was very satisfied, "It was indeed the right thing to come to you. Start preparing!"

"Thank you, boss!" Wen Ziren was very happy, stood up and left.

The project is officially established!

But Xiao Wang found Hong Kong Island at this time. He came directly to visit him, and he couldn't find anyone to introduce him.

He Yuzhu looked at the person in front of him, but he felt very bored in his heart, "I wonder why Mr. Xiao Wang is here?"

"I heard that Mr. He is preparing for a big production. Our company can be said to be the largest private film and television company in China. We hope to have the opportunity to cooperate." Xiao Wang said directly: "Our company has many actors, you can choose as you like."

He Yuzhu shook his head and said: "I have enough personnel, I don't need people from other companies, and I don't lack funds."

"..." Xiao Wang didn't expect that this person would be so direct, but they couldn't afford to offend him, "Mr. He, the risk of investing alone is very high, why not share it. This is the normal state of film and television production."

"No, I actually had the idea that I could lose money from the beginning. I don't care how much I invest, I just want to watch the movie I want to watch." He Yuzhu still refused, "Okay, there is no cooperation between us. possible."

"Mr. He, if our company wants to go public, we can offer some of the original shares." Xiao Wang hurriedly took out his trump card, "I believe that once it goes public, the value will not be low."

"Haha~" He Yuzhu laughed, "Can your market value catch up with my company's annual income?"
