Since he only stayed for less than a week, Ryan's itinerary was quite tight. After accepting an exclusive TV interview, he returned to the film industry and participated in the first Sino-US Film Summit Forum.```23wx`

This forum has been prepared for more than a year, and it was also led by Ryan. However, the smart Hollywood will not miss this kind of further development. The opportunity for the Chinese market is that the forum summit can be held smoothly. In addition to Disney, the other five traditional forces have also made a lot of efforts.

Ryan attended the forum accompanied by Wang Zhongjun. The first session was hosted by China and will go to Los Angeles next year. If it can continue, it will be held in this way in which the banker will take turns.

Originally, after Ryan sat down, he saw that the famous directors and celebrities in his previous life were still interested, but this interest quickly disappeared. Except for a few words of routine, he did not express any comments from beginning to end.

The reason is very simple. The organizer actually turned this private professional forum into a pure hodgepodge. It’s okay, they even charge ticket fees!

Whether it is the film industry or not or not, people in the surrounding industries can buy tickets for the forum for only $200, and the tickets for the dinner after the forum were even sold by them for $3,000!

After the forum, Ryan bluntly rejected the invitation of the organizer China Film Association's dinner.

What a joke, these guys are just thinking about money and thinking about it. Has the so-called "Movie Development Special Fund" with a box office commission of 5% of each movie yet to feed them?

Perhaps this is a convention, but Ryan is not stupid enough to act as a tool for others to make money.

He did not expect that the first session of the China-US Film Summit Forum that he had worked hard to become such a messy and confused thing.

When he returned to the hotel, Ryan threw such a trivial matter behind his head. Besides, even in North America, this situation is not uncommon.

China's film industry is in chaos. Before Hollywood developed, it also experienced a chaotic stage.

Compared to these, Ryan considered more about how to obtain more benefits.

In this era, the box office of many Hollywood commercial productions in North America only accounts for about one-third of its global box office, and the North American market is relatively saturated, so the international market will be the main growth space in the future. The huge potential of the Chinese market is the main reason why Hollywood seeks cooperation.

Although Ryan left, Disney and other Hollywood companies also had personnel attending the party. The reason was simple, capital would never go against the interests.

And the Chinese film industry also needs Hollywood.

Hollywood needs the Chinese market. The Chinese film industry needs Hollywood's talents and technology. Such cooperation will bring benefits to both parties in the future. If the Chinese film market is raised from a relatively low level to a relatively high level, then Hollywood will gain more commercial benefits from the cooperation between the two parties.

Because Ryan joined forces with many media groups to put pressure on many aspects, the World Trade Agreement between China and the United States on the film industry has changed a lot compared to the previous life.

At present, Hollywood movies have three main ways to enter the Chinese market. One is to import account share films. The Hollywood account share ratio is 20%, but there are only import quotas for twenty parts account share films and fourteen special account share films every year.

The second type is to import buy-out films. That is, China Film Group buys out the film's screening rights from Hollywood film manufacturers at a fixed price, while Hollywood manufacturers do not participate in the China box office share.

The third type is a Sino-US co-production film. Videos produced in this way can also enjoy a box office share ratio of about 43% compared to Chinese domestic films.

At the previous China-US film summit forum, the Zuoshan Diao from China Film Group specifically mentioned the co-production model between China and Hollywood, but Hollywood filmmakers, including Ryan, were not very interested in it.

Now it is not ten years later. The conditions for co-production films are far from mature.

Although Hollywood is shabby, North America has relatively complete entertainment laws and professional lawyers, overseas market pre-sales, third-party film completion guarantees, and production process requirements. There are also various trade unions and legal guarantees, which mostly have very clear relevant laws or industry regulations.

But now, the Chinese film industry does not have so many links. Although the cost is relatively low, it also means huge risks.

What's more, in 2004, a bureau just issued the "Regulations on the Management of Sino-foreign Cooperative Films", in which the conditions for co-production of films were extremely harsh, such as hiring Chinese main creators and requiring at least one-third of the main actors to be Chinese actors, filming in China, etc.

This is definitely not something that the current mainstream Hollywood filmmakers can accept.

Although this method is unacceptable, Ryan knew that there was another shortcut to take, that is, priority introduction, after all, there are only so many import quotas here every year.

So how can we give priority to introducing it?

Then there must be a proper amount of Chinese elements in the film. The film cannot meet the strict standards of co-production films, but it is considered on this path. Such films are likely to be introduced first.

For example, in the filming of "Transformers", in addition to the actress named Gao who played some of the supporting roles, she will also be filmed in New China City in Los Angeles, showing some Chinese culture. Although not many, the film is like the Harry Potter series with Chinese actors, and was listed as a priority for introduction by China Film Group as early as last year.

Perhaps it is not obvious yet, but in a few years, Hollywood will become very sensitive to China and will systematically study the needs of the Chinese market to understand what Chinese people want to see.

Because he had to go south to Shanghai to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of Disneyland and sign a cooperation agreement with Oriental Entertainment Media Group on behalf of Disney, Ryan's itinerary in Beijing was only the last day left. He first went to the other company for a brief visit at the invitation of China Film Group in the morning, and in the afternoon he went directly to the Beijing Film Academy to participate in the last activity here.

Like most celebrities who visited China in North America, Ryan received an invitation to a speech, but he chose the industry he is currently engaged in.

Like most of these widely-watched speeches, Ryan's agent communicated with the school in advance. He only visited China as a businessman and a film practitioner, hoping that the speech would not involve too much political issues. He also believed that the Chinese school could restrain those selected students who participated in the speech.

Only when he walked into the auditorium did Ryan realize that it was Chen Jiazheng who acted as the host temporarily.

"Chan, why are you here?" As time and distance grow, the connection between the two parties is no longer as close as before.

"There is no chance to pick up the guide." Chen Jiazheng whispered a few quickly, "So, I chose to be a teacher."

Reality is always helpless, Ryan knows this and doesn't say much. He goes into the auditorium and sits on the big stage.

There was a warm applause from the scene. Chen Jiazheng took a photo of the microphone and said, "Today we invited Mr. Ryan Jenkins, a famous Hollywood movie star, producer and chairman of the Walt Disney Group!"

"Please invite Ryan below!"

“I can speak fluent Chinese.”

Picking up the topic, Ryan stood up and looked below. The huge auditorium was packed. Although the number of people could not be estimated, it was definitely full of all the seats. "I believe this is more conducive to communication between us."

The students below first burst into laughter with kindness, and then returned with warm applause.

"Dear teachers and classmates..."

The applause gradually faded, and Ryan went straight to the topic, "I feel very honored to have obtained an honorary doctorate degree from this world-class film and television academy."

Just before entering the auditorium, Ryan received an honorary doctorate degree awarded by the school. This is the first honorary degree he has obtained. The schools in North America are simply too stingy in this regard. For example, his alma mater, the University of Southern California Film Academy, has so far been just a well-known alumnus and an ordinary graduate.

"This is a famous school with a long history, and many famous film workers have been born here."

Anyway, there is no need to charge for polite words, which can further narrow the distance between Disney and China. Ryan naturally has no pressure to speak, "The topic I am talking about today must be related to the film industry."

The warm applause rang again, and Ryan stood on the podium without any manuscripts at all, and continued, "In fact, this is also the career I am best at."

"To be honest, I really hope that I will always be a student of the film academy, and can always be engaged in this industry, shoot different movies, experience different roles, go to different places in the world, and experience different stories. I hope to use movies to learn life and myself. Shooting movies is actually a process of continuous learning."

"But shooting movies is like doing other jobs. If you succeed, you will naturally fail. I believe that everyone does not want to fail in the work they participate in, right?"

"So, what type of movies are now exclusive to Hollywood production and sales? Disney! That's right, it's produced by Disney!"

Ryan did not let the people below think and said directly, "2004 has just passed, and a lot of data has not been fully counted, but I can tell you that six of the top ten most popular movies in the United States were produced by Disney last year, among which "The Hunger Games" also set a record for box office pre-sales in North America."

"Maybe there is no intuitive impression for everyone." Ryan took a few steps and sat back in his chair. "The X-Men, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Pirates of the Caribbean 2, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, are all videos produced by Disney and its subsidiaries."

"Why can Disney's videos be successful?" (To be continued...)
