Chapter 382 If there is no road, I will build a road myself(2/2)

"Where." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "Poetry can indeed move people's hearts, but what moves people's hearts even more is the pictures.

Therefore, I just cooperated with CCTV on a program called Advertising, have you heard of it?"

"Of course." Uncle Xu smiled slightly.

"Your widely publicized column is good.

The first program, I remember, was your short film about the waving red flag. It was well shot, and it especially complemented your singing. It was very inspiring.

Although most of the subsequent programs are short films such as sketches, they are all charity projects.

For example, asking everyone not to litter, respecting the elderly and caring for the young, etc. are also very good movies."

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "Uncle Xu, simple poetry can only touch some literary and artistic young people, but it has little effect on the general public.

Popular songs are more powerful, but they are still lacking.

But things like TV movies with pictures and sounds are more resonant, better known to the public, and can subtly change their behaviors and thoughts.

This is the power of the media.

If you sing well, you can act. I am pretty good at singing, but I also want to make some achievements in movies, and I don’t want to be subject to too many restrictions, so I want to set up my own movie studio and raise my own funds to make movies.

Don't worry, I only want a quota in a movie studio and a sign.

After the film studio is established, I don’t want a penny from the government.

All expenses in the film studio will be taken care of by me.

Of course, I will also strictly abide by domestic regulations and make films that comply with the regulations and will never make shoddy films.

Furthermore, the Hongguang Machinery Factory where I work originally had an art troupe, and many of the people in it are not currently engaged in business.

Once I rely on the cultural troupe of our factory as the basis, I will spend some money to set up the film factory, and these artistic workers will have a place to play again.

As time passes, the world changes.

Today is the era of film and television.

If we don't keep up with the trend, those Peking operas, dance dramas, and allegro will probably be lost.

Although the art troupe in our factory is not very famous, the factory is the place where I was born and raised. My parents are both from the factory, so I have feelings for it.

Therefore, since I have the ability now, I want to start from the side and start by changing the machinery factory.

Once the people from the art troupe are assigned to the newly established film factory, the machinery factory will also have a lot less burden, don't you think?

What's more, you know that if you don't do it, it's enough, but if you do, do it the best!

When I wrote a book, it attracted thousands of readers, and it immediately became the best-selling poetry collection and the best-selling book.

When I sing, I can also fill the streets with thousands of people, and I can sing from all over the country.

By the same token, if I set up my own film studio and spend my own money to make movies, how will the quality be any worse?

Maybe, I can become an industry leader and force other domestic film studios to pay attention to details and quality and stop shoddy production.

It's inappropriate for me to say that our domestic films are now too far behind those of foreign countries.

Not to mention foreign countries, even Hong Kong and Taiwan, our movies cannot compare.

There are many problems here, and I won’t go into others. However, the majority of film practitioners eat from a big pot, have no pressure, only think about plagiarism, and do not pay attention to quality and innovation. This is also a big problem.

Therefore, I want to open, no, I want Hongguang Machinery Factory to open a film studio, and then I will be the contractor to run it, so I will pay for it all.

I want everyone to take a look at what kind of changes a film studio with a contract operation model can bring about.

Uncle Xu, you also hope that I can go further and create a new glory again, right?"

Uncle Xu laughed: "Returning new glory, have you ever created old glory?"

"Of course!" Cao Zhiqiang said.

"I'm not bragging, but the "Journey to the Rivers and Lakes" I published is currently the best-selling popular book in China, bar none!

Although the first album I released only had tens of thousands copies, it was still a bestseller.

Moreover, my second music album has been produced and will be released soon. It will definitely be a hit once again.

I have so many successes ahead of me, haven’t I ever been brilliant?

And I am not short of money now. I dare not say more than one or two million. One or two million is nothing.

I have talent, money and heart, so why can’t I achieve greater success in movies?”

"Then you can just find a film studio to make movies." Uncle Xu said with a smile, "Why do you want to set up a film studio by yourself? Do you know how difficult and troublesome it is to set up a film studio?"

Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "When I go to other film studios to make movies, I have to be controlled by others. I have suffered a lot."

"Suffering a lot?" Uncle Xu asked with a smile, "How can anyone suffer a lot?"

Cao Zhiqiang said: "To be honest, I once wrote a script and planned to hire Beijing Film Academy to film it. I also sent over 100,000 yuan in advance, but Beijing Film Academy actually said that it could not film it for the time being and that it would have to be queued up. It would be next year at the earliest.

Only then can I take pictures.

How can I wait for this, so I wanted to refund the money, but they said that the fastest refund would be at the end of the year.

You see, other people have the final say on their territory, and even if I pay them, I still have to suffer.

So I thought, I might as well set up my own film studio where I have the final say, just like my Hongguang Publishing House.

In this way, I can do what I want to do without anyone making things difficult for me.

When encountering difficulties, I shrink back, avoid them, and tolerate them. These are not my style.

Face difficulties and never give up, that is my style.

Lu Xun once said that there is no road in the world, but when more people walk, there will be a road.

But I have to say, if there is no road, I will build a road myself.

Whether I asked you for a publishing house or now a film studio, I want to build my own path.

Others don't understand why I give up easy things for difficult things, but you can definitely understand my painstaking efforts, right?"

Uncle Xu laughed: "Okay, that's good, it's interesting, but it's not enough."

Cao Zhiqiang blinked: "Otherwise, the college entrance examination is about to take place. If my college entrance examination results can enter the top ten in the city, will you agree to my request and help me get a place in the film studio?"

"Among the top ten in the city for college entrance examination results?" Uncle Xu smiled and squinted his eyes, "You sound pretty good, are you sure?"

"No." Cao Zhiqiang shook his head with a smile, "That's why I made this bet with you. If I'm sure, it's not a bet, it's blackmailing you."

"That's it." Uncle Xu smiled, "By the way, what was your score in the preliminary exam?"

Cao Zhiqiang shrugged: "I forgot how many points I scored. I just remember that I ranked 26th in the city's preliminaries."

"Oh, twenty-sixth in the city, not bad." Uncle Xu nodded with a smile, "This result is very good. As long as you perform normally, you will be admitted to university. No wonder you dare to say you are in the top ten.

But the most difficult thing about exams is to make quick progress, so the top ten and the top thirty are completely different concepts, you should know this, right?"

"It's clear, of course it's clear." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "That's why I want to make this difficult bet with you."

Immediately afterwards, Cao Zhiqiang said seriously: "Uncle Xu, the current bet is this.

If my college entrance examination scores rank among the top ten in the city, you will give me a place in a film studio.

If I don't get the top ten scores in the city in the college entrance examination, then the film studio's proposal will naturally be invalidated, how about that?"

Uncle Xu touched his chin, thought for a while, and nodded with a smile: "Since you said so, okay, I agree, then so be it."

"General!"

Cao Zhiqiang suddenly picked up his car, ate the opponent's taxi, and threatened the opponent's general head-on.

"Uncle Xu, are you out of moves this time?"

"You, you..." Uncle Xu looked at the chessboard and was stunned, "Didn't you agree to let me go?"

Cao Zhiqiang shrugged: "That was the previous proposal. You didn't agree, so... you won't regret it, right?"

Uncle Xu was stunned for a moment, then pointed his finger at Cao Zhiqiang with a wry smile: "You, you, you are such a naughty little one, such a little naughty one!"
