Many scenes in "The Legend of the White Snake" were filmed at the Dongyang Film and Television Base, but after filming the scenes here, Yang Ming will take the crew to Suzhou and Hangzhou for filming.

In order to better and perfectly reproduce this classic in this world, Yang Ming spent a lot of money this time.

Whether it is props, costumes, or special effects production, they will be more perfect than in previous lives.

After all, this classic in the previous life was filmed in the 1990s, and the filming technology was greatly limited. Now when it is Yang Ming's turn to film, naturally there will be no such big restrictions.

Because he knew how high this TV series would reach in the future, he naturally spent money on it.

It's a pity that the film and television base belonging to Oriental DreamWorks has just started construction. Otherwise, if this movie was shot at its own film and television base, the production cost would definitely be saved a lot.

However, Yang Ming didn't worry too much about it. After almost everyone on the crew had arrived, he began to put all his thoughts on the crew and prepare to start shooting. As for the things that Mr. Tao had explained before, he arranged

Liu Xinsheng took charge.

Yanjing.

Victory Pictures.

As one of the giants of local film companies, the company's atmosphere has become increasingly depressed these days.

"Chairman, the review results from the Film Association have come in. The film we will release in October is graded D!" A staff member who looked like an elite in suits and leather shoes said worriedly in Zhao Jianfeng's office.

Zhao Jianfeng was speechless after hearing this. After a moment, he slowly said: "I understand, you can go out first!"

When the elite-looking man heard this, he turned around and left without saying anything, slowly closing the door behind him.

Seeing his subordinates leaving, Zhao Jianfeng looked at the white wall in front of him and sighed heavily.

The consequences of "Racing" box office fraud are now beginning to come.

China's local film classification is divided into five levels, namely abcde!

Level A is a popular level, which can be watched by all ages. It is suitable for people of all ages to watch! This is also the most anticipated movie rating by all film companies.

Level B is an ordinary level. It is recommended to watch it with parents. Some pictures may cause discomfort to children. Generally speaking, this level is the most common. For movie companies to have this rating, it has an important impact on the box office of a movie.

That's enough guarantee.

Level C is a special guidance level. Children under the age of 13 must be accompanied by their parents to watch. Some content is very inappropriate for children!

Class D is a restricted class. Audiences under the age of 18 are required to be accompanied by parents or adults to watch. It can be said that if the movie is rated this way, the film market for minors will be lost. For the film company, even if the movie is popular

, box office results will also be seriously affected.

The E-level is for adults. Audiences aged 18 and under are prohibited from watching. Films of this level are classified as adult films, and minors are strictly prohibited from watching. If a movie is rated E-level, there is only one result, and that is that it will be for children.

Everyone!

Now Victory Pictures' film to be released in October has been rated D by the Film Association. This is not a very happy result.

Zhao Jianfeng can 100% guarantee that there will never be any illegal scenes in the film released in October. Even so, the review result given by the Film Association is still D-level, which means that Victory Pictures’ film will lose

Film market for minors.

This is a huge loss for Victory Pictures.

If this film does have many inappropriate scenes and is just a niche film, then Victory Pictures will not be too concerned about it.

However, this film was taken very seriously by Victory Pictures. Not only did the film itself cost more than 80 million yuan to produce, but it also invited several popular actors to star in it. Everyone at Victory Pictures was very excited about this film.

Big expectations.

However, now that the film's classification results have come out, it has dealt a heavy blow to Victory Pictures.

Many people at the top of Victory Pictures are filled with indignation and want to use their connections to put pressure on the Film Association, hoping that they will review the film's classification.

But Zhao Jianfeng blocked the opinions of the people below.

Because he knew that this result could not be changed. Even if the lawsuit was brought before the National Academy of Sciences, the film's classification result would not change at all.

And he also knew that this time the Film Association's classification was not the last, and the subsequent actions deliberately targeting Victory Pictures would continue for a long time.

The reason for all this is all because of "Crazy Racing".

The success is "Crazy Racing", and the failure is "Crazy Racing".

Xiao Bufan!

Thinking of this name, Zhao Jianfeng gritted his teeth.

The reason why Victory Pictures is now on the film association's blacklist is entirely because of the reckless box office fraud of "Racing".

However, now that such a big trap has emerged, Xiao Bufan himself has disappeared and cannot be contacted. Zhao Jianfeng wishes he could have a gun in his hand and shoot this guy directly.

If someone from the Xiao family hadn't given him the assurance, the Xiao family would never have joined hands to watch this matter, and he was ready to break up.

If there is not enough success, there is more than enough failure!

Just like that, he still wants to surpass Yang Ming.

It's just a joke.

Zhao Jianfeng frowned and looked sad. He couldn't help but light a cigarette, opened the window and started smoking.

Regardless of whether it is the people from the Zhao family or the relationship with the Xiao family, there is only one result that can be obtained from the Film Association, and that is that this time the Film Association is determined to treat Victory Pictures' box office fraud as a crime.

Deal with typical cases.

This is not killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, but killing the monkeys to scare the chickens!

Even if the Zhao family and the Xiao family have high-level government connections, there is no use in putting pressure on the Film Association.

As a private semi-official organization, the Film Association is inherently not subject to the constraints of the government. In this case, the high-level relationship that the Zhao family and the Xiao family have always been proud of is of no use at this time.

Moreover, Zhao Jianfeng learned through some connections that many senior officials of the Ministry of Culture also supported the film association's changes.

The entertainment industry is indeed too chaotic, and it’s time for politics.

Ministry of Culture!

Thinking of this, Zhao Jianfeng's eyes flashed with coldness, and he couldn't help but think of Minister Guo. Although this minister has not officially taken charge of the Ministry of Culture, he is regarded as the most powerful candidate for the next Minister of Culture.

As for the candidate, he knew very well that Minister Guo favored Yang Ming.

For a moment, he thought about a lot of things.

But he has determined that Victory Pictures has been treated as a typical example and there can be no changes.

--well!

Zhao Jianfeng couldn't help but sigh again. He still had to step into this circle to gain a foothold, which would bring about the consequences.

Moreover, the cultural industry is not within the Zhao family’s inherent sphere of influence. Now that something like this has happened, the family has no good solution for the time being.

In other words, Victory Pictures will definitely suffer this loss.

His eyes narrowed slightly. Since he was unable to change this result, he had to find ways to minimize the impact of this result.

It seems that Victory Pictures has to make a low profile to gain the film association's understanding.

Zhao Jianfeng's fists were clenched tightly unconsciously, as if he had not had the thought of bowing his head and admitting his mistakes to others for a long time.

Unexpectedly, just when he was full of confidence to make a big splash in the film industry, he encountered this result.

I have to say that this made Zhao Jianfeng's mind go cold. He became sober and calm, and began to consider everything carefully.

But he didn't gain anything.

Although "Racing" has been in trouble this time due to box office fraud and has been treated as a typical example by the Film Association, it cannot be denied that this film has still achieved great success at the box office after squeezing out the box office water.

In particular, this film has achieved a box office of about 150 million yuan in the American film market. If it were not for Yang Ming, this film by Victory Pictures would definitely be a successful example of Chinese-language films abroad in recent years.

.

When the news reached the family, even though they were under great pressure due to the box office fraud incident, the family was still very surprised.

With the U.S. box office of 150 million yuan, coupled with the movie box office in East Asia, the total box office of "Racing" suddenly exceeded 2 billion yuan, becoming the first Chinese-language film in recent years to exceed 2 billion yuan, except Yang Ming.

Chinese-language movies at Huayuan Box Office.

2 billion Chinese yuan. After deducting theater chain shares and various expenses, Victory Pictures can get about 800 million Chinese yuan.

The production cost of "Crazy Racing" is about 500 million yuan, so Victory Pictures has a net income of 300 million yuan, not counting other copyright income from this film.

Subsequent VCD copyrights and online copyrights can still bring nearly 100 million yuan in revenue to Victory Pictures.

Just one film can bring in hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue.

The Zhao family was suddenly shocked by the huge benefits of the entertainment and culture industry.

Even though they are very aware that the rewards of "Racing" are not universal, they are still tempted by the huge profits of the film industry.

Therefore, even though Victory Pictures was deeply troubled by the box office fraud incident, the family not only reduced its support, but also gave Zhao Jianfeng greater support.

This also gives Zhao Jianfeng better room for maneuver.

Yang Ming!

The name once again appeared in Zhao Jianfeng's mind, and he couldn't help but sneer. With the stronger support from his family, he has full confidence in taking Victory Pictures to surpass the opponent Oriental DreamWorks and break the opponent's continuous success in creating miracles.

myth.

He seemed to have made a decision in his heart, crossed his arms, tapped his fingers on the other arm, picked up the phone and ordered: "Notice, the meeting will be held in ten minutes!"
