The 1970s was a period of rapid development for the self-made Chinese language programs in the Xiangjiang TV industry, which attracted and trained a large number of professionals. Many outstanding people began to focus their work on the film field, such as Xu Ke and Xu Anhua, who are still well known by the public decades later in the "old script".
Gao Xian, who paid attention to these dynamics, came to the basic judgment that the new wave of Xiangjiang film is really coming.
The so-called new wave of Xiangjiang film can be roughly explained as that these fresh blood of Xiangjiang film industry give people a new feeling in terms of film production methods, theme content expression and so on. From a long-term perspective, it has profound significance and influence.
Of course, for the mainstream of Xiangjiang film industry in the current era, these slightly "alternative" film industry activities are not suitable to be included in the mature operation scope of large film companies with commercial profit as the main goal.
Based on the development trend of this industry, Gao Xian took out HK $8 million from his own pocket and borrowed Shanghua culture platform to support this year's new wave of Xiangjiang films. If the effect is ideal, it will continue next year or even the year after next.
The main purpose of Gao Xian's doing so is to spend up to HK $25 million, which is irrelevant to him, for a good reputation and dilute the smell of copper.
You know, the filmmakers who can join the new wave of Xiangjiang films in this period have almost remarkable achievements and considerable social influence. If they all read the benefits of Gaoxian in the micro stage, it will certainly help to maintain Gaoxian's reputation.
The value of this can be demonstrated to some extent through a negative example, that is, because Shaw film company made too many romantic films in the 1970s, sir Shao was scolded miserably, but uncle Liu has always been independent and took the lead in the box office. He doesn't care about the reputation of the outside world. On the surface, he has not been affected.
Gao Xian is only in his thirties now. He has a great time and has a long way to go in the future. Naturally, while cherishing his feathers, he skillfully manages his reputation.
Since Zhong Jinghui specifically mentioned it, Gao Xian took the time to show his support.
So far, there are three film projects supported by the fund. Xu Ke's butterfly change tries to combine science fiction and martial arts into one; Crazy robbery by Xu Anhua, a suspense reasoning work adapted from a real case; Zhang Guoming's "pointing soldiers" shows the fighting between detectives and criminals.
Obviously, in the event, Xu Ke, Xu Anhua and Zhang Guoming became the protagonists, and then were assigned to position C, surrounded by other filmmakers.
After the appearance of the high string dressed casually, warm applause filled with sincerity sounded, which fully explained what is called. The generous and selfless gold owner is loved by everyone!
Gao Xian didn't have the slightest. It was similar to the big boss's airs on the board of directors of Hutchison. He waved his hand approachably, "just talk a few words. I heard that if I don't show up, everyone's worries won't be completely eliminated."
"Now I will formally reiterate that as long as your works pass the review committee, you can get support funds, and there are no box office restrictions."
"I never intended to make money out of this money, because I have many places to make money. Don't you believe it?"
Everyone here laughed at these bright words. Sir Gao's business talent is well recognized. Naturally, he has the strength to give money. Those who don't believe Sir Gao's personal commitment must be funny!
Gao Xian continued: "after work, I will choose to watch movies to relax my body and mind. Unfortunately, most of Xiangjiang's films in recent years, including some projects participated by Shanghua culture, rely on the 'four heads' of gimmicks, fists, pillows and ghosts to attract the audience. They have no aura and soul, which makes me dull."
Many people present listened to the excited smile of meeting confidants on their faces, and couldn't help whispering: "unexpectedly, sir Gao has such a thorough understanding of Xiangjiang's film industry..."
Gao Xian added: "fortunately, because of you, there is a fresh wind in Xiangjiang film industry, which brightens my eyes."
"I'm an expert in making money; everyone is an expert in making movies. I want to value movies and establish support funds; you give full play to your talents and learning and lead the new fashion of Xiangjiang films. This kind of heaven made match appears!"
After people fully understood that there was really no commercial interest behind the support fund, the applause became more enthusiastic, and there were endless praise for Sir Gao.
After the scene atmosphere calmed down a little, Xu Ke asked a seemingly sharp question, "Sir Gao, if the film box office revenue is OK, how to deal with it?"
Gao Xian replied seriously: "because it was not established for a long time, the description of support funds in box office revenue is not perfect."
"I think so. Filmmakers also have the pressure of real life. Therefore, in any case, the box office revenue should be fully taken into account. In this way, we can have the motivation to continue to create."
"In addition, the large-scale buildings built by happy group in Causeway Bay, including the International Convention and Exhibition Center, can be put into use in the second half of the year. I intend to choose a place to set up a Xiangjiang film Expo there, distribute the remaining film box office revenue and give it."
The audience was filled with awe. Sir Gao and those profit seeking film businessmen were really very different.
It is not difficult to imagine that the atmosphere of the next buffet will be further harmonious.
Gao Xian said with a smile: "I certainly don't understand movies as well as professionals. What I understand is that in the current fresh wind of Xiangjiang film industry, your creation has at least two aspects. One is to explore Xiangjiang's social problems, interpersonal relationships, family ethics, local culture and other themes, and the other is to introduce some new film production methods, such as special effects."
"For the latter, I have some small ideas."
"Everyone must know that Lucas's Star Wars made a sensation all over the world, and I am also one of the investors, so I have mastered some special effects resources used in the film."
"If any of you want to make a bold attempt in special effects, I am willing to provide convenience within my ability."
Listening to the bright Xu Ke, he asked first, "Sir Gao, are there any restrictions on the theme of film creation in this direction?"
Gao Xian said with a smile: "of course, we need the film theme with Chinese cultural background. We can't really make Hollywood films because we learn from the special effects of Star Wars."
Xu Ke nodded thoughtfully and turned to compliment: "it is not only the luck of us filmmakers, but also the luck of Xiangjiang film industry to get the strong support of Sir Gao!"
"What I want is the gratitude of you cultural people in the circle!" the high string muttering in my heart smiled loudly and accepted the other party's toast.
