Chapter 488
After the group sat down, Wang Wan took a notebook and sat behind Chen Huaiqing to take minutes of the meeting.
Today's meeting is very important.
All the leaders of the Radio, Film and Television Department and the heads of various departments came over.
Chen Huaiqing is the first person in the development of China's industrial economy.
All the industries Chen Huaiqing is involved in are developing quite well.
Let’s talk about the motorcycle industry. Motta Group has become the world’s number one.
In the automotive field, Motta Group is the largest automobile manufacturer in China.
The other is the semiconductor industry.
There used to be a semiconductor industry in China, but it didn't develop very well.
What now?
An obvious change is that the prices of various electronic products have dropped a lot.
From radios to televisions to computers, prices have dropped a lot.
In addition, Chen Huaiqing also has another identity, that is, the boss of Beichen Entertainment.
Although Chen Huaiqing's name does not appear on Beichen Entertainment's shareholder list, Beichen Entertainment is a wholly-owned subsidiary of his investment.
As for TA Investment, Chen Huaiqing is the chairman.
"Film should be developed as a cultural industry. While meeting the people's spiritual and cultural needs, it can also have a very good role in promoting economic development."
Film is called the seventh art, following the six others: architecture, music, painting, sculpture, poetry and dance.
There is also a TV from the Eighth Art and a game from the Ninth Art in the back...
Art, what exactly is it?
When an artist makes a few random strokes, some people think this is art.
Art is a way for human beings to express their nature and pursue beauty.
Real art should be "beautiful"!
Of course, everyone's definition of beauty will be different, but it's impossible for just one person to say it's beautiful and others think it's not. That's still art.
"In an industry, there is a big difference between manual and machine production."
"I have always asked Beichen Entertainment to industrialize movies."
"Compared with manual production, the biggest advantages of industrial production are the cost advantages brought by mass production, the controllability of product quality and high technology."
“Globally, Hollywood in the United States was the first to realize the industrialization of film.”
"Xiangjiang Film barely has the shadow of film industrialization. But in terms of high technology, in the Xiangjiang film industry, except for Beichen Entertainment, other film and television companies have not achieved it."
Chen Huaiqing: "Hollywood Films has taken the lead in completing the industrialization of films and has demonstrated extremely high competitive advantages on a global scale."
"In many countries around the world, Hollywood has become synonymous with movies."
Chen Huaiqing paused: "As far as Xiangjiang movies are concerned, their biggest box office now comes from Baodao."
"According to the analysis of TA Investment, the Hong Kong film market in Baodao is showing weakness. It is expected that in the next few years, the Baodao film market will be occupied by Hollywood films."
"For Xiangjiang Film, it has now reached a very dangerous point. If Xiangjiang Film does not actively turn to the mainland film market after losing the Baodao market, then the decline of Xiangjiang Film will be inevitable."
A leader pondered for a while and said: "So, you want to carry out market-oriented reforms in the mainland film market to find a way for Hong Kong films?"
Chen Huaiqing: "It's not about finding a way out for Hong Kong films. As an enterprise, you have to find your own way out. If the film companies in Hong Kong are smart, then they should actively move closer to the country to let
Movies have entered the mainland market."
"There are destined people in Fodu, and in the market, the strong survive. Although Xiangjiang Film seems to be very prosperous, in fact, there are only a few excellent film companies. All other film companies are just people who are just trying to make ends meet.
What’s left is real gold.”
Judging from the development of the film industry in the United States, there will not be too many film companies left in the end.
After the market is fully competitive, weak companies will be eliminated, and strong companies will become the market leaders.
"Hong Kong returned to China in 1997. I think that after Hong Kong's return, Hong Kong is its own. As long as Xiangjiang movies pass the review, they can be released in mainland theaters. There are no restrictions on the number of Xiangjiang movies released each year.
"
Chen Huaiqing: "As for the development of mainland films, to be honest, I am not too optimistic about the development prospects of domestic film studios in the market competition."
As the competent authority, the China Radio and Television Department is naturally aware of the problems faced by major film studios.
"I suggest that the ministry can reform the film studio into a joint-stock company and push it into market competition."
Chen Huaiqing remembers that none of the top ten movies in the future were produced by current film studios.
"Either you fight your way through the market, or you die directly in the market."
"It's cruel, but this is the market. Only companies that actively adapt to the market, understand the market, and even guide the market can continue to develop and grow in the market."
A leader asked: "What if the film studio fails in the market competition?"
Chen Huaiqing said with a smile: "Failure is normal, success is unexpected! Most of these domestic film studios cannot adapt to market competition. In the past, they all relied on state funding to shoot movies, and the movies they produced were outstanding.
It is a unified national procurement."
Overall, the production model of film studios is not much different from that of other enterprises.
They are all in a state of planning.
"These film studios must compete in the market. There is a bright future. If they fail, they will go bankrupt. Just in time, they can optimize the allocation of human resources."
"Our movies are going to the world. Through movies, we can show China to the world and let the world understand China. Then, we must have a group of good film companies that can produce films that are recognized by the market."
"Compared to these old film studios, I am more optimistic about the development of private film companies."
This exchange in the Radio and Television Department took a lot of time.
Had it not been for off-duty hours, this exchange might have continued.
Of course, for the people in the Radio and Television Department, this exchange with Chen Huaiqing was also very fruitful.
At least we know what the Radio, Film and Television Department should do in the future.
Indeed, as a national department, what the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television should do is formulate rules and supervise the operation of the rules.
As for how the movie is shot, whether it will make money or lose money after it is made, the China Radio and Television Department does not need to care.
The film purchasing department will be independent from now on.
After purchasing the movie, it is the cinema's own business.
Whether each cinema will join forces to form a cinema chain company or go it alone is a matter for the cinema itself.
Anyway, in the future, movies shown in cinemas must be reviewed by the Radio and Television Department before they can be released.
Movies played without review are all crooked movies.
