Chapter 342 Unexplained Pirated Version

The Golden Globes of American Film and Television have just come to an end, and the Oscars ceremony will soon be announced.

The Golden Globes and the Oscars are next to each other, and they are held later than 20 years later.

Kang Jianfei was too lazy to send movies to participate in this Golden Globe Awards and Oscars.

However, as the agent distributor, 20th Century Fox, in order to increase the global reputation of "Home Imperial", took the initiative to help Kang Jianfei deliver films and pay a small amount of lobbying money.

20th Century Fox's efforts were not in vain. "Home Imperial" successfully won the Golden Globes nomination for Best Soundtrack and Best Song, and also won the Oscar for Best Soundtrack.

To be honest, Kang Jianfei no longer remembers the original soundtrack, but based on the general melody, Lu Guanting helped to complete the details.

Compared with the original soundtrack, Kang Jianfei himself can't tell which version is better.

Because the Golden Globe Awards ceremony was during the Spring Festival, Kang Jianfei had no intention of leaving for the United States, and only asked Tang Shuxuan, who was still in the United States, to attend the awards ceremony on his behalf.

As expected, both nominations for the Golden Globe Award were aborted, and Kang Jianfei did not win a single award.

But even so, for Hong Kong directors, being nominated for both the Oscar and the Golden Globes is enough to be a temporary talk.

After the news came back to Hong Kong, it also promoted the box office of "Home Imperial" to a certain extent.

The film awards in the United States will not be mentioned yet. The nomination for the second Hong Kong Film Awards will also begin to be announced after the New Year. It will be selected from the films released in Hong Kong from January to December last year, and the staff of 6 projects must be Hong Kong-based movies to be qualified.

This time, the Hong Kong Film Awards has changed a lot from the first session last year. It is no longer a small fight for "Movie Biweekly" to entertain themselves.

Without a professional film group, Shu Qi imitated the American Golden Globe Awards and organized a large jury with 258 journalists/critics.

In order to be fair and fair, these jury members include not only Hong Kong people, but also some from Singapore, Taiwan, Japan, Malaysia and South Korea.

Not only that, at the second Hong Kong Film Awards, Japanese director Nagisa Oshima, Taiwanese director Li Xing and Hong Kong director Li Hanxiang were also invited as special guests.

Xu Xiaofeng and Anita Mui were invited as guests of the performance. The hosts were directly the original members of "Happy 60 Points", Zheng Zeshi, Zhang Mary, Stephen Chow and Mao Shunjun. In addition, Pan Yuesheng, the editor-in-chief of Ming Pao, was invited as the vice chairman of the jury, responsible for supervising the fairness of the selection process. Shu Qi, the editor-in-chief of "Movie Biweekly", served as the chairman of the jury, and led the professionalism of the jury.

There are also major breakthroughs in the Academy Awards. On the basis of the original, it has been added to 14 awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenwriter, Best Photography, Best Actor and Actor Leader, Best Supporting Actor and Female, Best Music, Best Original Song, Best Editing, Best Sound Effect, Best Visual Effects and Best Action Design.

The trophy has also been redesigned, and according to the body proportions of the leading actress Zheng Wenya of Taiwan, a goddess with a hand holding a pearl and a body wrapped in a film.

The Golden Image Awards ceremony is scheduled to be held at Taiping Theater on March 15, and the grand awards ceremony will be broadcast on Feng Huáng TV that night.

Also participating were Hong Kong Radio and Oriental Daily, which were assisting Feng Huáng Station in hosting the award ceremony.

Before the Spring Festival has passed, major media in Hong Kong have begun to promote the Golden Star Awards. In order to create this year's Golden Star Awards, Kang Jianfei spent 5 million to organize funds.

It is almost impossible to recover the 5 million yuan, because the influence of the Academy Awards is too small, and Feng Huáng TV, as the organizer, can only get a little advertising fee.

……

Before the Academy Awards ceremony was held, Kang Jianfei received an unexpected and hilarious news.

In the 1983 Spring Festival Gala at the Mainland Central Station, Kang Jianfei asked Deng Yimin to choose two young singers who could speak Mandarin to participate, and also wrote four songs for them personally.

In order to avoid suspicion, Kang Jianfei, the lyricist and composer of these four New Year songs, signed the pen name Long Aotian.

The two young singers are named Zhang Xiang and Teng Yuwei. The average age of one man and one woman is 26. This age and looks very ordinary, it is basically impossible for them to become famous in Hong Kong.

As a result, Zhang Xiang and Teng Yuwei ran to the Spring Festival Gala to sing, and became popular all over China overnight. The four songs "Good Luck", "Happy New Year", "Big China" and "Happy Meeting" became divine songs sung by everyone from all over the country.

Kang Jianfei originally wanted to let Deng Yimin go north and cooperate with the China Recording Company (later China Recording Corporation) which was established in the mainland at the end of last year, to create a "Happy New Year" album.

Who knew that Deng Yimin had just taken a plane to Beijing and found that these four songs and other songs in the Spring Festival Gala had been recorded into albums and covered with alleys, and the publishing unit of this record was the Chinese Records Agency.

Deng Yimin had to go to discuss with the Chinese Records Society, but the Chinese Records Society said that they had obtained the copyright from the Central Station Spring Festival Gala program team.

When Deng Yimin went to the Spring Festival Gala program team again, the temporary organization had long been disbanded and no one was willing to come out to take responsibility.

Deng Yimin was depressed and complained to the comrades who accompanied the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office, and the people from the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office could only report the situation to their superiors.

After all, Deng Yimin belonged to his Hong Kong compatriots, and the behavior of Chinese record stores was quickly criticized by their superiors, and the matter was successfully resolved.

You said that the Chinese record company gave you 500 yuan in copyright fees?Kang Jianfei looked at Deng Yimin speechlessly as if he had heard a fantasy.

500 yuan is quite a lot, because I am a compatriot in Hong Kong, and I heard that mainland music creators only cost 20 to 30 yuan to write a song.

Deng Yimin smiled bitterly. He had only been in Beijing for a few days before coming back. If he stayed there, he would feel like a fool.

Kang Jianfei was so angry that he couldn't twist his thighs, so he could only suffer a loss in such a thing.

If he really spared no effort to make trouble with the Hong Kong and Macau Office, perhaps some central leaders would severely criticize the piracy of Chinese record companies due to this special period of Sino-British negotiations, and then make up for Kang Jianfei's losses.

But because several songs are in a mess with Chinese record stores, this behavior is not worth the effort, and the connections involved are too complicated.

Deng Yimin threw out a booklet and said: This is the "Interim Regulations on the Management of Audio and Video Products" issued by the Mainland more than a month ago. Article 6 of which is about protecting the copyright of creators. I estimate that many people in the Mainland have never read this regulation carefully and do not know what copyright protection is.

Kang Jianfei opened the booklet and read it with interest. The content of Article 6 is: Audio-visual product publishing units should protect the reasonable rights and interests of authors and performers.

The remuneration standards and remuneration methods for audio-visual products of literary and artistic programs are jointly formulated by the Ministry of Radio and Television and the Ministry of Culture...

The audio-visual product publishing unit enjoys the right to publish the recorded audio-visual materials in accordance with an agreement with the author and performer.

Without the authorization of the original audio-visual product publishing unit, no other unit may reprint or copy, or delete or redefine or publish it separately without authorization.

The author and performer have authorized programs to a certain audio-visual product publishing unit. Other audio-visual product publishing units shall not record and publish separately by increasing remuneration, reimbursement of remuneration or other improper means.

For violators, the original audio-visual product publishing unit may sue the judicial authorities.

Haha, the regulations are quite detailed, but unfortunately it is just a piece of waste paper.

Kang Jianfei couldn't help laughing when he saw it.

Nowadays, record companies in mainland China are all state-owned. Even if they infringe on the copyright of creators, who creators dare to sue?

Once the lawsuit is started, it will be a civil servant who will be sued by the government, and the court will probably not accept it at all.

Deng Yimin sat down and drank a sip of water and said: Boss, I asked the officials of the Ministry of Culture that the possibility of opening a record company with the mainland is zero.Records are special commodities. Now the mainland has not relaxed the gap in this regard at all, so it can only choose to cooperate with state-owned record companies in the mainland to produce and release records.

Kang Jianfei nodded. This time he asked Deng Yimin to go north just to test the waters and winds.

The mainland has very strict management of cultural products. Kang Jian flew to CCTV to sell "The Great Hero Huo Yuanjia" and took advantage of the loopholes, which was sold just before the relevant regulations were issued.

Now, if Kang Jianfei wants to sell TV series to CCTV, he or she needs to report to the Radio and Television Department for approval, and then ask the General Administration of Customs to issue a notice.

If Kang Jianfei wants to release records in the mainland, he must cooperate with audio-visual publishing units in the mainland.

If the partner unit is a China Recording Company, it must also be approved by the competent unit of the ministries and commissions, and then issued a notice by the Ministry of Radio, Television and the General Administration of Customs.

Anyway, in recent years, the film and music market in the mainland has been difficult to do, and Kang Jianfei doesn’t want to spend his brains to manage it.

Let's do this, and do the favor to the end.

Although Kang Jianfei does not want to deliberately explore the mainland music market, it is good to have a good relationship with his mainland peers. Didn’t Zhang Xiang and Teng Yuwei sing popular on the Spring Festival Gala?Anyway, they don’t have much future in Hong Kong and Taiwan, so you can lend them to a Chinese record company.

Deng Yimin doesn't care. He actually doesn't have much hope for the mainland market, nor does he believe that poor mainland people will have too much consumption capacity.

Kang Jianfei left Fengxing Records and drove to Villa No. 4 of Repulse Bay.Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan are about to fly back to the mainland, and Kang Jianfei is here to see him off.

The two were on a plane at 3:00 pm. When Kang Jian flew to the villa, Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan were just packing their things after dinner. There were only a few large bags of souvenirs and gifts.

When Kang Jianfei saw Ye Zishan, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and asked: Zishan, is there anyone in your family working in a record company?

Ye Zishan nodded and said: There is Ah, my cousin used to be a singing and dancing troupe, and after getting married, she joined the Guangzhou Record Factory.

Do you remember your cousin’s phone number?Kang Jianfei asked.

Ye Zishan didn't ask Kang Jianfei what he wanted to do, so she wrote a phone number with her pen.

Kang Jianfei immediately called Deng Yimin and said: Zhang Xiáng and Teng Yuwei should not lend it to China Records Agency. I have a phone number here, which is the contact information of Miss Ye from Guangzhou Records Factory. You can talk to Ms. Ye about cooperation.

Kang Jianfei didn't know that Guangzhou Record Factory would become a branch of China Records in July this year. He only knew that he could cooperate with Guangzhou Record Factory, and he would never be afraid of anyone with the relationship between the Ye family.
