Following that, Wang Huatao raised the issue of reorganizing the cultural scene.
This proposal was approved by everyone, including Xiao Yunhai. Especially the few big shots in the entertainment circle, they denounced the phenomena of acting like big shots in the circle, abusing body doubles, and having too high a net worth.
Through this meeting, Xiao Yunhai suddenly realized that the people in the entertainment industry seemed to be inferior to these writers. Zhang Xuanlin, Wang Huatao, and company also seemed to look down on the entertainment industry.
Even when Chen Qingqing and Wang Guoan were speaking, Xiao Yunhai could see the contempt in their eyes.
The ancients said that actors were heartless. In ancient society, actors had a lowly status.
Now that they were in a new society, even though the entertainment industry occupied half of Hua Xia's economy, these traditional cultured people still looked down on actors and singers. They felt that they sold their bodies and were vulgar, while they were elegant.
Xiao Yunhai could not do anything about this phenomenon. Thankfully, celebrities had a higher social status than in his previous life. They also earned more money than them.
Another problem was that the topics raised by everyone did not seem to have much of an effect on the development of the industry. As they spoke, it even became a meeting to vent their dissatisfaction.
Xiao Yunhai sighed inwardly. What was the point of continuing such a meeting?
After enduring more than an hour of verbal bombardment, it was Xiao Yunhai's turn to speak. At this moment, the door suddenly opened.
Everyone turned their heads and saw Minister No. 1 and two or three of his entourage walk in.
Everyone hurriedly stood up to welcome them.
Minister No. 1 smiled and said, "There's no need to stand on ceremony. Please take a seat. I'm here mainly to listen to our group's discussion. What kind of questions are we discussing? Everyone has heard the government's report yesterday. The cultural industry's share of the gross national product has exceeded 12%. It has to be taken seriously. Who's next to speak? "
The host said, "It's Xiao Yunhai, Mr. Xiao."
When Minister No. 1 heard this, he was amused. He looked at Xiao Yunhai and said, "Isn't this too much of a coincidence? Yunhai, we're old acquaintances. I remember two years ago, you swore to me that within five years, I would be the richest man in the world. At that time, although I admired your courage, I didn't think you could do it. Who would have thought that you would only need two years to accomplish your goal? You've really brought glory to Hua Xia. Just now, the business team was in a heated argument. They collectively requested for you to go over. Looks like you're going to be busy today. "
Everyone was surprised and envious when they heard the No.1 Chief speak to Xiao Yunhai in such a tone, and the two of them had known each other for a long time.
None of the people present had been received by the Number One Senior Officer.
Xiao Yunhai forced a smile and said, "How would I know anything about business? Chief, I'd better not go. I don't want to be laughed at by those real big entrepreneurs. "
The First Chief said, "You are now the leading figure in Hua Xia's business world. Even if you don't want to go, Number Two will definitely send someone to call you later. Because their problems never left you. Alright, tell me about your proposal regarding the cultural industry first. Back then, I got a lot of inspiration from your words. Many of the successful implementation of policies were also obtained from you. Tell me, I want to hear it. "
Everyone was once again shocked by the Number One Chief's words. The country's policies actually came from Xiao Yunhai. That was too scary.
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Alright, I'll talk about my topic. Chief, teachers, with the development of the cultural and entertainment industry, we are already connected to the world. I've checked. Last year, Hua Xia and Hollywood jointly filmed more than a hundred movies and television dramas. It greatly promoted the development of our film industry. "
"But there's a big problem. I'm not sure if everyone has seen it. That is, out of the hundred movies, only a dozen or so were led by Hua Xia Film and Television. The other 90% or so were all foreign film and television companies looking for Hua Xia actors to film in order to make money. Haha, in Hua Xia, we have become the passive party. This is very abnormal. "
"Also, ever since Hua Xia's entertainment barrier disappeared, Hollywood came to Hua Xia to set up branch companies and television stations. In total, there are probably more than 40 entertainment companies. What about us? There's not a single one in Hollywood. I don't understand. Is Hollywood so scary? Not a single one of our Hua Xia Entertainment Company dares to set up a branch company? “
"If they can use our actors to film the movies and television dramas that the people of Hua Xia like, then why can't we use their actors to film the movies and television dramas that the audiences in Europe and America like? I think this is a problem of self-confidence. "
The State Preceptor Mo Kaixuan suddenly said, "Mr. Xiao said it well. All along, Hollywood has been the world's film and television entertainment center. This concept has been deeply ingrained in the hearts of the CEOs, directors, and actors of Hua Xia Entertainment Company. Many people don't even dare to think about this problem, let alone do it. "
Hearing that Mo Kaixuan actually agreed with his point of view, Xiao Yunhai couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't understand what this old man was up to.
"Could it be that he's showing goodwill to me?" Xiao Yunhai couldn't help but think.
Chen Qingqing said, "This is not incomprehensible. Hollywood has the most complete film industry system, and it has a very high position in the hearts of the people in the television industry. Everyone is afraid that if they go there, they will lose everything in the competition where the strong competitors gather. In the whole of Hua Xia, other than Mr. Xiao Yunhai's Marvel, there are no other Hua Xia companies. "
The First Chief nodded and said, "Yunhai, I've heard you say before that Hollywood's biggest advantage was technology. Last year, your Dream Special Effects Company developed 3D special effects and took the world by storm. Logically speaking, we should be the ones with the advantage now. But now, we are still in a dominant position. Clearly, this is a problem of perception. How do you think we should solve it? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "First, let everyone understand that Hua Xia has become the new film and television center. Hollywood's advantage is no longer there."
"Second, encourage everyone to go out and not always stay in their own homes to compete with others. No matter how you fight, you will always be the loser. Because Hua Xia's market is only so big, even if the foreign film and television companies only get a small piece, it will be snatched from our mouths. As the saying goes, offense is the best defense. We can't just sit there and wait for death. We should take the initiative to attack. "
"Third, the source of film and television — — screenwriters. Many of us in Hua Xia have always held the mentality that celebrities are lowly people. They look down on the film and television industry from the bottom of their hearts, not to mention helping to write scripts. Chief, even the cleverest housewife can't cook without rice. No matter how good a director is, without a good script, he still can't shoot a good show. Therefore, I think the Hua Xia Writers' Association should take on the task of providing ammunition for the film and television industry to ensure that Hua Xia culture can develop faster and better. After all, in today's world, the spread of film and television is far more advantageous than books. "
Xiao Yunhai's last suggestion almost made the filmmakers present clap and cheer.
