The momentum of Lin Xilei's arrival in Hong Kong can be called top star treatment, and the media and paparazzi flock to her. net (..M)

TB even live-streamed the interview process.

It's a pity that Lin Xilei, who covered her face in black, only said the word "thank you" throughout the whole process, and did not reply at all. The reporters almost lay on the front cover of the car, but in the end they let Lin Xilei get away.

Lin Xilei, who entered the "Iron Triangle" crew to officially start filming a new play, has an unmoving purpose for this matter. China Star, her agent team and herself have not officially responded to this matter on any subsequent occasions. Strangely, after Daniel **** quickly refuted the "boyfriend and girlfriend" relationship, he no longer mentioned this issue, and instead focused on filming the last part of "Wonderful Night".

...

In mid-April, Daniel had just finished all work on "Night at the Museum", followed by the director's team and post-production work, and some producers will be watching - in fact, mainly Fox and "Harry Potter" three The group is responsible. Although he was an investor and a major actor, he didn't put much effort into the final version. At the same time, the 9th Shanghai International Film Festival officially announced that the European film "The Immortal Gardener", which was classified as German and British-led, became the opening film of the festival. Starring Daniel Sandler, Rachel Weisz, director Fernando and others will all set foot in China for the first time to meet Chinese fans.

This news is a great encouragement for the Shanghai Film Festival. Although it is the only A-category international film festival in mainland China, the international influence of the Shanghai Film Festival has always been lacklustre. The number and quality of the films registered for it are comparable to those of the three European film festivals. The gap between major international film festivals is very large, and there is no way to compare them with well-known and old-fashioned A-type film festivals such as Montreal and Karlovy Vary. Obviously, whether it is for the organizing committee, for Chinese films, or for the competent authorities, this Both phenomena are quite frustrating.

Daniel Sandler's presence may be the most eye-catching moment it's ever held.

Just in time for the Shanghai Film Festival's determination to make itself a truly "international" film festival. Daniel's support cannot be said to be a big favor.

Since Daniel became famous, invitations have been sent to him every year at the Shanghai International Film Festival, but they were all declined. For this routine invitation, the staff of the organizing committee did not report any hope. They would not think that today was a special year - but when they got a call back from Sally, it was confirmed that Daniel had accepted the invitation. It was only when I could start to communicate with the organizer that I suddenly noticed the change in the situation. And this unreality will continue.

It didn't take much time to finalize the itinerary.

In fact, it was basically Daniel who made the request, and the Shanghai International Film Festival cooperated - this is the principle of strength and weakness. Daniel does not expect the Shanghai Film Festival to add glory to himself, but the Shanghai Film Festival hopes that the arrival of Daniel will add a layer of gold to its "international" word. What's more, Daniel will bring the Oscar just won. Best Supporting Actress Rachel Weisz. In addition, as a Chinese director, An Li will also come to this film festival. "Brokeback Mountain" has made people use unprecedented international influence. Obviously. The three Oscar winners will bring more attention to the festival, which is dominated by Asian and European filmmakers.

After the Shanghai International Film Festival announced the news, the Daniel team also issued a statement.

Daniel will fly from Los Angeles to Beijing on June 12, 2006. The itinerary is very complicated. First of all, he will divert from Beijing to the Giant Panda Breeding and Breeding Center of Sichuan Province, and confirm the cooperation with him on "Kung Fu Panda", and Donated a batch of research equipment to the center and established an additional foundation, as a "science and technology benefiting all living beings" foundation, focusing on humanitarianism, the right to survival and other fields. It has been expanded to include signs and accessories in the fields of biological protection, climate and environment. On June 14th, Daniel and his entourage will return to the capital to hold talks with several Chinese official departments, including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and the Ministry of Health. The scope of the talks includes interconnection cooperation, film industry cooperation, and the "Technology Benefit All Living Beings" Foundation's activities in China. Charity projects. And thanks to the help provided to China during the SARS incident in 2003, Daniel will also be met by Chinese high-level officials - which will provide more help for the development of his career in China. June 16. He will leave the capital and arrive in Shanghai, ready to attend the opening ceremony the next day. After that, Daniel will also participate in several film discussion forums to talk about Chinese films, world films and Hollywood.

On June 21, Daniel will fly directly to Thailand to inspect a local refugee camp, fulfilling his obligations as a UNHCR goodwill ambassador. He won't return to Los Angeles until June 28. Prepare for the next series of work: including the premieres of several successive films, the finals of the High School Musical Cup, and the summary meeting of the first phase of the preparations for the "Golden Eagle Award", etc.

There is no doubt that this China itinerary is enough to make many people look at it.

China is recognized as a promising market, but it is understandable that Hollywood has not begun to act with sufficient intensity - because so far, its equivalent is still too small, in addition, the local market is closed and unique. The policy has also sapped the enthusiasm of many companies, especially for Hollywood, which is trying to turn China into a new movie colony.

And Daniel's latest move about China also makes him a pro-China faction.

Since Daniel founded MB, he has been subject to this accusation, or positioning. Protests against MB, F2F and other social media's control on China-related issues are endless, and even some lawsuits in the name of violation of freedom of speech are not new, but MB and F2F's approach is quite clever, it does not directly challenge American values. , but it is in line with business strategy to deal with obvious errors and assertions without evidence. Therefore, despite the accusations by conservatives, social networks such as F2F have never been outraged. On the other hand, this is also evidence of Daniel's preference for the Democratic Party - although the Democratic Party is not considered to be pro-China, it is at least more moderate than the conservative hawks, and Daniel walks on this basis. farther.

...

"It's really surprising that you are optimistic about China." When Daniel received a call from Larry Page, he had just put down MPAA chairman Christopher's call-he came to inform Daniel that some members of MPAA had no interest in him and Chinese films. Cooperation Program Concerns.

"uh-huh?"

"I'm sure that you are already preparing for these cooperation matters when you first implemented the pro-China line." Page is very determined, "But I still don't agree with the introduction of a Chinese mobile phone manufacturer into the Android Alliance, you should know . . . that would raise objections from a large number of founding members."

Daniel originally planned to introduce a Chinese mobile phone manufacturer into the mobile phone development alliance in the memorandum of this trip to China, but the preliminary work encountered obstacles, and the most important thing was that Google, an important partner, did not agree. In order to seek maximum consensus, Google has abandoned many principles. Of course, they are not willing to arouse opposition from European, American, Japanese and Korean manufacturers to Chinese manufacturers' intervention.

"Page, you have to understand that it is impossible for the mobile phone manufacturers among the founding members to independently develop a market against Apple. Secondly. If we want to enter the Chinese market, especially if you have formed an alliance that includes China Mobile. But It's inconceivable and simply impossible not to delegate power to local manufacturers in China. I don't think you'd be naive to think that your decision won't have nasty repercussions, that's a company of 1.3 billion people The market, their administration owns the market and has everything, you just have to give in.”

"Maybe you're right, but at least not now."

"So you decide to turn a relationship-enhancing move into a reluctant admission?" Daniel chuckled. "Peppa. Smart people don't do that. If it can't be avoided, we should do it nicely, Maintaining relations with China will benefit both you and me."

Page was silent for a while on the phone, and he certainly wouldn't change his mind just because of Daniel's words, in fact, on the subject. Google itself lacks a firm will. In Google's most important search business, there is a strong competitor in China, plus the difference in values ​​between the two sides, it is understandable that Google despises the establishment of a closer relationship with each other. It's just that Daniel's statement is reasonable enough to drag on. It may be possible to benefit existing manufacturers in the alliance, but it will certainly upset Chinese manufacturers who feel they are being discriminated against.

Whether or not to do such an arrogant thing, Page hesitated.

"Page, I understand what makes Google special in China. But I want to tell you two things, first of all, are you willing to suffer the consequences when you have the opportunity to compete in that market again in a few years. Would you like to Are you going to endure the additional hurdles brought by the unpleasant history? Second, Chinese companies are going out of China, they need to cooperate with the world's leading Internet advertising service providers, are you willing to have a higher level of this part of the business because of good relationships certainty? I think you'll have your own ideas."

"……Maybe,"

...

"I was a little surprised." Daniel put down his phone, and Cusa Damon sat opposite him.

Kusa is prepared, "If you want to get close to China in China, especially those who have huge influence, you need to bear additional pressure. You will be widely blamed for many of China's shortcomings, even if you just go If you participate in a film festival, you will be considered to support their authority, not to mention, you still have so many things to do, in addition to the activities of 'science and technology benefit all living beings', there may be other pressures, such as MPAA. In fact, I also don't quite understand, why do you want to move closer to China so much? Even if it is a fast-growing market, its annual total box office is not even comparable to our North American box office of a small production, maybe wait, at least When it radiates a little more of its own charm, when everyone is moving, it doesn't matter if your pace is bigger, but now you're walking too fast."

Daniel let out a sigh of relief. To be honest, his thoughts on China are very complicated.

Of course, these measures cannot rule out the influence that his soul once brought as a Chinese, but equally important, or even more important, is indeed his pursuit of interests-no one can imagine that in less than ten years, The total box office in China can directly increase from 30 million US dollars to more than 6 billion! That doesn't include other sales—even though piracy is rampant there, peripherals are still lucrative. More importantly, in the future, China will have the largest population of citizens in the world: 650 million! That's the equivalent of two U.S. populations combined, and that's a place not to be given up.

"However, I believe in you, you are always right."

Kusa suddenly smiled, "You're an 'Undefeated Legend', aren't you?"

"Ha ha."

"Don't worry, although these actions are not pleasing to the country, as long as you don't violate principles of principle, no one will interfere with your freedom."

"It's a good thing for America - long live the rich?"

"Maybe."

...

There are many and frequent cooperations with Google, such as YuTube, Plutosi invested in it, and then introduced Google for it. Google has a strong ability to monetize traffic. YuTube needs such a partner, and Google is also willing to have a new flow entry. Therefore, the differences in the Android Alliance will not have a serious impact. In fact, it is not so decisive to join the Development Mobile Alliance sooner or later - an obvious example is Taiwan, which is a founding member, But the subsequent performance was not satisfactory enough - let some of China's own brands develop better~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Daniel pushed this matter, and more let the Chinese feel that they have a face - able to Joining a top frontier group is certainly a face.

However, the MPAA level may not be too easy. Hollywood itself is increasingly worried about its own profit prospects. The box office revenue in the North American market basically cannot meet the needs of tens of millions of dollars invested in the work, and the global box office is Hollywood's revenue. A very important part, and although the Chinese market is not so high-profile, if the film industry tries to inject them with a core competitive factor, this will certainly not be accepted.

Negotiating with Daniel through Christopher, the MPAA's channel, rather than individual companies worried about the move, is enough to show how stubborn these men are about maintaining Hollywood's detached status. On the other hand, they also want to use this to tell Daniel that this is the concern of the whole Hollywood and not to try to confront them.

Of course Daniel wouldn't fight them, that was tough and stupid.

Therefore, trying to persuade them is a matter of considerable energy and wisdom.

The important thing is that they definitely don't allow Daniel to fake his hand. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
