The more important point is that it is actually not easy for Mr. Han. The sole approval power brings him immeasurable status in the industry, but it also comes with huge political risks.
The reason is self-evident, and he has to be more cautious than others, otherwise an abrupt move can bring disaster to himself.
Therefore, this unique position privilege is more often than not like sitting on the crater of a volcano all the time. If you don't pay attention, you may be ruined or even broken into pieces.
Take this matter as an example. One or two super capital forces in the Mainland may not be able to turn the world upside down, but the destructive power of these people secretly uniting the industry has created unlimited possibilities.
If they didn't have a convincing reason, they might not dare to provoke Liu Qingshan, a man with extremely powerful abilities, and they might vent their evil anger on Han Shanping, the film's largest investor.
At that time, people don't even need to use knives or guns. They just need to pass on some small words to the higher ups to make the third master, who is a member of the system, unable to escape.
So Liu Qingshan made a decisive decision next: "Then I will contact them immediately. I can't guarantee that I will get accurate information, but at least I can understand the direction of the influence!"
"Yes, yes, I'm not asking for more detailed information. As long as you can give me a general guess, I will be able to suppress it!" Han Shanping's side was obviously mentally prepared.
"Then there's no need to talk nonsense. Before dinner, I will find a way to learn as much as possible!"
In fact, after hanging up the phone here, Liu Qingshan immediately dialed Mr. Fu's personal contact number.
The tone there sounded like a sense of schadenfreude: "I only knew that your kid was in trouble before you contacted me. Is it because of your new movie?"
"Old man, I don't have time to chat with you about other things, the house is going to be in trouble!"
"Can people still feel pressure in Xiangjiang?"
"It's not like that. They are all big-name figures in the industry, and they all speak with resentful tone. The key is that I have been kept in the dark. I don't know what to ask. This will offend people even more!"
"Actually, I don't know the reason behind it, but it is certain that the higher-ups value your movie very much, and their move may not be without using their support for the film to defeat some relevant stakeholders. The first time I got the news For a moment, I was a little anxious and angry like you, and I picked up the phone several times to make a call, but when I calmed down and thought about it, I'm afraid this matter is not that simple!"
"I'm no longer anxious to find out what's fishy inside. On the contrary, I feel uneasy when my phone rings."
"You kid, stop acting for me. I don't know you yet? No matter how big things happen, it's impossible for you to lose your cool. You are so scheming that sometimes even an old guy like me feels inferior to you!"
"This time is different. The more familiar I am, the more troublesome I feel. I feel like I have nowhere to vent my anger!"
"It's not like you to be at a loss when things get too old! Okay, I won't talk nonsense anymore. You can just reply that it's the voice of the west side of the Forbidden City! Of course, this is also my personal guess, but it is almost the same. "
There are two connected lakes on the west side of the Forbidden City - Zhonghai and Nanhai. There is still a transcendent existence in China, which everyone understands.
"How could such a trivial matter alarm the people over there?" Despite the speculation, Liu Qingshan still couldn't hide the shock in his tone.
Mr. Fu smiled and said, "It's not as scary as you imagined. Your movie is by no means a trivial matter. Besides, everyone there knows you. Have you forgotten that the movie you shot, "Into the Guandong" was circulated there?"
"This time is different. After all, the content in the movie is a bit out of line, which makes me feel less confident!"
"Why did you go there earlier and are you afraid now? Just hide and laugh, or secretly rejoice. You should be grateful to the country for being so understanding and righteous!"
"Listening to your old tone, this matter is solidified. Whose idea was it?"
"I was a regular customer there before I quit. Do you think my guess is wrong? Besides, I don't even need to deliberately inquire.
, you only need to understand the response attitude of the grassroots departments, and you can see the secret behind it! But you have to keep this matter under wraps. Logically speaking, anything that touches it is a state secret! "
"I understand this! Old man, thank you very much for today. I will visit you another day!"
"I know how to talk, so I won't let you go this time! The two children of Grace are currently in Sanrenlu, right? Is it possible to get the Fu family to stay for two days?"
"Why don't you just go to Sanrenlu and take a look? Why do you have to stir up so much trouble? I'm afraid not many people know about my scandal!"
"You silly boy, you can only keep it more secret if you come here to me. Otherwise, if I go to Sanrenlu in a grand manner, I can only watch from a distance. My wish to hug my grandchildren in person may not come true. There She has a lot of eyeliner!"
It is true that Sanrenlu has become a sensitive place. Both the private sector and the government regard it as a very special public place.
After all, the people who are qualified to go there are not only rich people, but also powerful people, and they are also the real people in power, not the second or third generation ancestors.
And there are very few young people, because Sanren House is a Taoist health-preserving place, and the seats are already tight, so there is no way to receive those who only want to show off their appearance and use it as bragging rights.
The current Sanren House is not afraid of anyone causing trouble, because the people who come and go there every day are some big guys. Just the security forces waiting outside the courtyard are capable of getting rid of such people before they even enter the door.
"Then I will stay with you for two days. I am already alone at home, and I have long considered the Fu family to be my natal family!"
"I'm so happy that you can say something like this! The important thing is that no one in our Fu family is dissatisfied with you, and there are few unavoidable overt and covert fights in other big families. We all treat you as one of our own!"
"Why don't you move to a scattered house for your retirement next year? Although the Fu family is not prosperous, it is still a well-known family. I can't visit frequently, and I am a trouble-prone master, so as not to bring trouble to you and the Fu family. Provoke unreasonable disaster!"
"I'm not telling you, reducing the number of visits will clear up the relationship between us? Can't you be so naive, or are you making excuses for not visiting?"
"Heaven and Earth Conscience, whenever I return to the capital, I will never pay a visit. Even if I miss it occasionally, I will take the initiative to call and say hello. The main reason is that I am too busy. If my family hadn't hired someone to watch, I would have crawled in the yard. It’s full of weeds!”
"You're not exaggerating about this. You are indeed so busy that you have almost no time to relax! I will move to Sanrenlu, but not now. After all, I just moved out not long ago, and many of my old relationships are still moving around. It's not very convenient to go to your place. convenient!"
"Anyway, I have already reserved a place for you in the backyard. When you plan to move there, just tell me in advance. As long as you are not abroad, I will find a way to be a porter!"
"It's not urgent. Didn't you say it's okay for me to live to be a hundred years old? Now I've just turned seventy, and I still have some years left to live!"
"Living over a hundred years is just the beginning. I am confident that I can give you another ten or twenty years of life. The premise is that you must adapt to the Taoist health atmosphere of Sanrenlu in advance!"
"Good boy, this is a big boast, but I still trust you. I'm watching the new movie. If anyone dares to make some small moves, I can get the news in the shortest possible time."
Liu Qingshan said in surprise: "Someone would dare to take action on something that the big shots are concerned about?"
Mr. Fu smiled and said: "There is no absolute in everything. There is no guarantee that someone will use some tricks to poke and prod. Although the possibility is not high, I am not the only one who has matured. Don't worry, I will pay special attention to it!"
"I heard that if I'm not the God of Medicine, I might get an official appointment?"
"This is no longer something you can worry about. Everything has advantages and disadvantages. The more support the country gives you, the higher the overseas market will be wary of you. So, don't take things like this too seriously. I think that People who want to help you also have a sense of purpose, so don’t have too high expectations.”
After chatting some more, the phone call lasted ten minutes.
Liu Qingshan
He did not reply to Han Shanping immediately, but returned to the director's position at the filming site.
The progress of the fight scene in the afternoon was not very fast, and even though there would be very few remaining scenes after post-editing, it was Liu Qingshan's first exposure to Chen Long's comedy action style, so he never interrupted the enthusiastic Liu family members.
This time, he used Ip Man 2 to expand his influence and used almost all Liu Jiaban's trump cards. He just wanted to create the first real kung fu movie in the strict sense.
Everyone on the crew knows this, and even those veterans who have been in the Hong Kong film industry for decades are actively cooperating.
Because they know the great significance of the success of this film, which is not only related to the future of Hong Kong Kung Fu films, but also the hope for the martial arts industry to rise again.
Why many of them are still working hard in the industry in their forties or fifties is not because of the serious lack of follow-up talents in the martial arts industry.
After all, since the mid-1990s, the entire Kung Fu film market has been severely shrinking, and it has become inevitable that fewer and fewer young people are no longer willing to endure hardships and work in this industry.
As a result, even though there are currently many young people in the martial arts, there are serious problems in both quantity and quality.
Even so, most of these young people are disciples or children of old martial arts practitioners. It is obviously impossible to maintain the entire industry just by relying on these internal talent flows.
Moreover, once the martial arts industry becomes a popular job search again, old people like them will have other jobs after retirement. For example, opening an apprenticeship will be an easy way to support their retirement.
