Chapter 771: Cult Film

How Le Yiling would talk to them, Yin Jun didn't know.

But leave the matter to Sister Le, and the young man will be very relieved.

Because Le Yiling is one of the few people who knows Yin Jun's dream of entertainment empire in his heart, she knows that Yin Jun will definitely not be willing to give up when he encounters such a good opportunity, so Le Yiling will definitely negotiate this deal seriously.

Now that the Kirin Group's stall is so big, Yin Jun naturally can't be idle, and there are always a lot of things to do.

The list of nominees for the Hong Kong Academy Awards was put forward as early as January 1.

Among last year's movies, the best ones were basically nominated.

"Police Detective School", "Autumn Fairy Tale", "Killer Trench", "Blind Detective", "Difficult Brothers", "Bumping into the Right", "Native Villagers", "Tin Drying You", "Modern Dirty", "Tales of a Small Town", "Money Makes Trouble", "Evil", "Mountain Dog", "Treading the Waves", ...... Wait a minute.

These are the best products of the year selected by secret ballot by the editors-in-chief of famous newspapers and magazines in Hong Kong, film directors, film critics, reporters, etc.

There are not only movies in Xiangjiang, but also movies in Treasure Island.

The Xiangjiang Film Awards have confirmed from the beginning that it is the awarding of all Chinese film awards, and it is definitely not just the self-entertainment of the Xiangjiang region, so it is easy to lose its fairness, and an award that will not be inclusive will definitely gradually fall lonely.

Originally, I was going to choose Singaporean films, but there are really few filmmakers in Singapore, and there are few good films so far, so I can only regretfully give up.

There are a lot of good movies in the mainland, but in order to take care of the market of Baodao, Guan Shan, Wen Jun and a group of members of the organizing committee, after thinking about it again and again, tremblingly talked to Yin Jun about the decision to "not consider it for the time being".

Yin Jun didn't say anything very generously.

He didn't want to act according to the eyes of Baodao, but because Xiangjiang was now in charge of the British, and if they knew Yin Jun's strong inclination towards the mainland so quickly, it would probably be detrimental to Yin Jun's development.

No matter what, it will have to wait until two years later, after Margaret Thatcher has been shocked, and Xiangjiang has fallen into chaos and confusion, that Yin Jun can show his strength and start to slowly realize his plan.

Among all the movies, "Autumn Fairy Tale" has the most nominations, with 6, followed by 5 from "Native People" on Treasure Island, 4 from "Blind Detective", "Difficult Brothers", "Small Town Story" and "Hit the Right", and there are also two from "Money is Strange", and the biggest dark horse "Mountain Dog", this dark film with an average box office, can actually get 3 nominations.

"Police Detective School", which has the highest box office performance, has only 2 nominations, namely Best Costume Design and Best Screenplay - don't doubt that from the beginning, the film literati in Hong Kong were not so interested in commercial films.

Another "Loser" written by Yin Jun did not receive any nominations because it was a purely commercial film, and Wang Fatzi's "A Thousand Kings Fighting a Thousand Tyrants" did not even have a shadow.

Cheng Long's "Killer Trench" was nominated for "Best Action Design", but the rest of the acting arts did not have a single nomination, the fate is the same as "Police School", and the judges also have the same attitude towards him as the Academy Awards in his previous life.

If there is no accident, "Autumn Fairy Tale" will continue to dominate the Xiangjiang Academy Awards after dominating the Golden Horse Awards, and Zhou Yunfa is likely to win the title of actor again.

The only thing that can threaten the best picture, best director, and best actor and actress can only be "Native People" directed by Li Xin, the movie of this treasure island is very likable, and even a group of judges in Xiangjiang praised it.

In the rest of the discussion, there are many favorites, and the dark and sharp style of "Mountain Dog" unexpectedly made many judges like it, and it is estimated that it can also win two awards, and it may even be a grand prize.

This immediately caused a frenzy of criticism in the newspapers.

Yu Yunkang's "Mountain Dog" was very bloody, very violent, and even had some xx shots, which were criticized from many quarters when they were released at the end of last year, and in the end, they were forced to paint after only 11 days of release, and got a box office of about 2.3 million, but they did not lose money.

Such a film actually directly entered the shortlist of the Xiangjiang Film Awards, and it was also nominated for Best Editing, Best Director and Best Picture, among which Best Director and Best Picture are not nominated for any film.

This has confused and even angered many people in the literary and artistic circles in Hong Kong.

In particular, Yi Shu, she commented in Ming Pao, directly pointing out: "If an important film award in a region is based on blood, violence, and xx as the selling point, then what is the meaning of its existence? I respect all those who work hard for the development of Xiangjiang culture, but Mr. Yin Jun, is the Xiangjiang Film Award you founded too much putting the cart before the horse?"

Yin Jun didn't come out to speak, and Guan Shan's face was thin, but Wen Xiaopang couldn't help it.

When the executive vice president of the Academy Awards was interviewed by the TV station, he also responded to Yi Shu's comments.

"I have read Miss Yishu's remarks, and I will not care what other people's rights are said in Xiangjiang, a place where speech is free. But Miss Yi Shu also got one thing wrong, although "Mountain Dog" has those bloody, violent and xx factors, but it is a film that reflects the current situation of Xiangjiang society and young people in Xiangjiang.

Today's Xiangjiang society is impetuous, and the young people in Xiangjiang are very confused, and when these factors are combined, who dares to deny that such a cruel fact will not happen in the future? For such a film that profoundly exposes the dark side of society and has a strong ability to express social reality, more than half of our judges have chosen to praise rather than superficially look at the surface.

I would like to reiterate here once again that the Hong Kong Film Awards were nominated by Mr. Yin Jun, and he also donated a sum of money for our daily expenses, which is true. Even the sponsor of the Xiangjiang Film Awards is Mr. Yin Jun's Kylin TV, but he has never interfered in any of our affairs, and there is no abuse of power for personal gain.

Our Academy Awards have always adhered to the principles of fairness, justice and openness, and will never engage in black-box operations, but we will never change our judgment because of the so-called celebrity remarks. For Heung Kong Films, our judges are already the most professional, and we hope that everyone can respect our work. ”

Before Wen Jun said this, he was just a contact person who was equivalent to running errands, after all, he was too young, and not many people really regarded him as an official of the Academy Awards.

But after such a period of not being humble or arrogant, and speaking reasonably, everyone suddenly had a refreshing feeling, thinking that this young man was not impetuous at all, very smart, and a bit of his boss Yin Jun's style.

All right

No matter how the Academy Awards organizing committee distinguishes, everyone thinks that they are Yin Jun's company.

Regarding Wen Jun's remarks, people in the film industry agree very much, at least the judges, who agree very much.

Every industry has a circle of each industry, the film circle and the literary circle, in fact, they are not very connected, even the most closely related film circle and TV circle, there is a certain separation.

These people in the film industry were a little embarrassed at first, after all, "Mountain Dog" is a movie that has been scolded a lot, and they all thought that they were the only ones who chose this movie, but they didn't expect so many judges to choose it, and when the results came out, they were a little surprised.

But the results have already come out, and naturally it is impossible to change.

When they were scolded, they didn't open their mouths, but after Wen Jun said this, everyone immediately felt that they had found a soulmate.

That's right, the things in our film industry, our professional films selected from various angles, are about you outsiders?

Chirp, are you experts, or are we experts?

Which writers and critics do you need to decide the Academy Awards in our film industry?

Thinking of this, for a while, many film practitioners raised their voices and confronted those opponents.

Wen Xiaopang also inspired them, and when they encountered something inappropriate, they immediately said, "We are professionals, what are you?" ...... "Our artistic perspective, can we use you to command?...... Such words.

Those well-known literati in the society were not to be outdone, and instead quarreled with this group of people in the film industry, making the people of Xiangjiang as if they were watching a play.

In addition to everyone's interest in the awarding of the Academy Awards, many people are interested in the movie "Mountain Dog" and have asked the film company to take it out and re-screen it as soon as possible.

In this dispute, Yin Jun appreciated Wen Jun's daring to speak, and made a special phone call to let him continue, which made Wen Xiaopang breathe a sigh of relief, but he was afraid that Yin Jun would think that he had too many enemies.

Don't look at what he said about the Academy Awards has nothing to do with Yin Jun, but Wen Xiaopang himself has something to do with Yin Jun.

Yin Jun promised him that once he did a good job, he would be entrusted with important tasks in the future.

Yin Jun said that he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility!

Could this be a trivial matter?

That's why Wen Xiaopang worked so hard, and he lost more than a dozen pounds in a few months, but he still has an important motivation to never regret it!

In addition to Wen Xiaopang, Yin Jun also specially invited Yu Yunkang over.

Until now, almost three years after coming to Xiangjiang, the three grandmasters of Xiangjiang Cult films, Yu Yunkang, Mou Dundi, Nan Naicai, Yin Jun finally met the first one.

Yu Yunkang is different from the dark and bloody style of his filming, he looks very honest, with black-rimmed glasses, like a teacher.

"Mr. Yu. Sitting in the office, Yin Jun asked curiously, "Why do you like to make this kind of movie?" I looked at the directors of the New Wave and found that you have the most unique tastes. Don't you know that making such a movie will make you have no box office attention and can only leave the scene in the end?"

"Handsome ......"

Yu Yunkang didn't expect Yin Jun to ask so directly, he hesitated for a moment before saying: "First of all, my movie is not a loss, its cost is only 800,000 Hong Kong dollars. And then I think that the most important thing in making a film is to be able to make what you want to express, which is more important than money, you say?"

Yin Jun smiled faintly.

Yu Yunkang didn't just say that, he still did it.

So when he reached the 90s, he had no movies to make at all, and went straight to business.

Of course, Xiangjiang is a place that must not be able to cultivate the Cult film market, first of all, the first one, the two major markets of Baodao and the mainland, are places where the folk customs are soft, and most of the people do not accept this type at all, and only a small number of people in Xiangjiang like it, but it definitely can't support the market.

What can really best support the market is the incomparably large market of the United States.

On the other hand, Japan, Asia, is also a very suitable cult film market!

"How does Mr. Yu feel about the violent and bloody films in the United States?" Yin Jun turned to ask another question.

"I think their kind of films, there are too many superficial things, they don't dig deep into the genre, they are actually easier to shoot, and there is no difficulty. Yu Yun said, "Actually, I didn't do a good job of rendering the atmosphere and expressing mental activities. For the next movie, if I have the chance, I'll dig a little deeper. ”

"You go back and make your plans. Yin Jun groaned, "Show me the script, if it is suitable, Kirin Movie will open for you." ”

"Really?" Yu Yunkang perked up, "Are you willing to give me enough budget?"

"The budget is enough, and the personnel are as you choose. Yin Jun smiled, "I only have one request, I must shoot well, shoot the most in line with what you think, the more detailed and careful the better." ”

"Okay!"

Yu Yunkang became excited.

originally thought that Yin Jun called him over for the sake of the Academy Awards, and wanted him to announce his withdrawal or something, so as to calm the controversy.

As a result, I didn't expect that Yin Jun actually wanted to fund him to make a movie, and it was so strong!

"Jun Shao, you ...... You're not afraid of a box office fiasco, can't I make money for you?" Yu Yunkang hesitated for a moment, but still asked like this.

"I'm afraid of not seeing good movies, I'm not afraid of losing money. Yin Jun smiled, "What's more, as long as you can sharpen your filming style, it is very profitable! You can do it with confidence! You will understand this later!"

"Good!"

Yu Yunkang couldn't understand why Yin Jun was so sure that he could make money, but now that Yin Jun invested in him, and said "it's enough", if he didn't catch it, he would be a fool!

What a beautiful thing it is for someone to invest money to polish their own movies!

Now he naturally won't understand how broad Yin Jun's ideas and visions for cult films and horror films are.

In the United States and Japan, such films are usually small and big, and they are the easiest to produce series, and the reputation will be very good!

For example, the Grim Reaper series, the Saw series, the Midnight Bell series, the Curse series, and the Ghost Record series......

At that time, it will not only be Yu Yunkang alone, but the three major Cult film masters in Xiangjiang will all have a place to use!
