Podcasts about Fan Bingbing

This week, Taylor, Sandy and Taddea Richard discuss the panel's recent wilderness retreat, Joe Biden's nodule, Fan Bingbing's mother Bhumi bonanza, evil scientists' plan to “dim the sun,” Disney's Taliban collaboration, Taylor Swift's terrible testimony and much, much more!

Today on the show we have Oscar® and two-time Emmy® Nominee Simon Kinberg.He has established himself as one of Hollywood's most prolific filmmakers, having written and produced projects for some of the most successful franchises in the modern era. His films have earned more than seven billion dollars worldwide. Kinberg graduated from Brown University and received his MFA from Columbia University Film School, where his thesis project was the original script, “Mr and Mrs Smith.” The film was released in 2005, starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.Upcoming, Kinberg will premiere his action spy film “The 355”, which will be released theatrically by Universal on January 7, 2022. Directed, co-written and produced by Kinberg, the film was one of the biggest deals out of the 2018 Cannes Film Festival and stars an ensemble of A-list actresses including Jessica Chastain, Lupita Nyong'o, Penelope Cruz, Diane Kruger and Fan Bingbing.A dream team of formidable female stars come together in a hard-driving original approach to the globe-trotting espionage genre in The 355.When a top-secret weapon falls into mercenary hands, wild card CIA agent Mason “Mace” Brown (Oscar®-nominated actress Jessica Chastain) will need to join forces with rival badass German agent Marie (Diane Kruger, In the Fade), former MI6 ally and cutting-edge computer specialist Khadijah (Oscar® winner Lupita Nyong'o), and skilled Colombian psychologist Graciela (Oscar® winner Penélope Cruz) on a lethal, breakneck mission to retrieve it, while also staying one-step ahead of a mysterious woman, Lin Mi Sheng (Bingbing Fan, X-Men: Days of Future Past), who is tracking their every move.As the action rockets around the globe from the cafes of Paris to the markets of Morocco to the opulent auction houses of Shanghai, the quartet of women will forge a tenuous loyalty that could protect the world—or get them killed. The film also stars Édgar Ramirez (The Girl on the Train) and Sebastian Stan (Avengers: Endgame).The 355 is directed by genre-defying filmmaker Simon Kinberg (writer-director-producer of Dark Phoenix, producer of Deadpool and The Martian and writer-producer of the X-Men films). The screenplay is by Theresa Rebeck (NBC's Smash, Trouble) and Kinberg, from a story by Rebeck. The 355, presented by Universal Pictures in association with FilmNation Entertainment, is produced by Chastain and Kelly Carmichael for Chastain's Freckle Films and by Kinberg for his Kinberg Genre Films. The film is executive produced by Richard Hewitt (Bohemian Rhapsody), Esmond Ren (Chinese Zodiac) and Wang Rui Huan.His original series “Invasion” premiered on Apple TV+ on October 22nd. He co-created the show with David Weil, serves as Executive Producer, and wrote or co-wrote 9 of its first 10 episodes. It is considered one of Apple's most ambitious series to date as it was filmed on 4 different continents. The show has already been renewed for a second season, which Kinberg is show running and Executive Producing again. He is also the Executive Producer of the upcoming show “Moonfall” for Amazon. Also upcoming, Kinberg produced the sequel to "Murder on the Orient Express,” “Death on The Nile,” directed by Kenneth Branagh and starring Gal Gadot, Armie Hammer, Annette Bening and another all-star cast. Needless to say this is one heck of an episode. Enjoy my conversation with Simon Kinberg.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/indie-film-hustle-a-filmmaking-podcast--2664729/support.

Hengdian, in Zhejiang province, is booming as the location set for two-thirds of China's period dramas. Synopsis: Every first Friday of the month, The Straits Times chats with ST's global correspondents about life as it goes on, amid the screaming headlines and bubbling crises. They come with stars in their eyes, hoping to become the next Fan Bingbing or Jackson Yee. In Hengdian, they put their names down and hope to be picked - to deliver a line, to stand next to an actor, or even just to be a face in the crowd in one scene.  Hengdian is touted as China's Hollywood, and with good reason - it was here that high-budget dramas and films such as Story of Yanxi Palace and Curse of the Golden Flower were shot.  But it has gained renewed attention in recent years, as Chinese audiences get hooked on micro-dramas - low-budget productions shot in vertical format to be viewed on smartphones.  In this episode, ST's foreign editor Li Xueying chats with correspondent Goh Yan Han on the dreams that Hengdian represents to Chinese youths.

It is one of the most famous Chinese period dramas ever, but where are the members of its main cast now? Synopsis: How Did We Get Here is a new scripted series under the #PopVultures banner, where host Jan Lee will deep dive into a celebrity, a band or the cast of a movie or film that made an impact on Asian entertainment and how they got to where they are now. There is a good argument to be made that the most famous Chinese drama ever aired is the Qing dynasty period royal romance My Fair Princess, best known for its first two seasons aired in 1998 and 1999. The story is about a case of mistaken identity. An orphaned street urchin named Xiaoyanzi accidentally becomes a princess in place of her friend, the Qing emperor Qianlong's illegitimate daughter Ziwei.  The series broke viewership records, became extremely popular across Asia and was an unprecedented hit that turned its main cast members into household names - Vicki Zhao, Ruby Lin, Alec Su, Zhou Jie, Fan Bingbing and Julian Chen. Now, 26 years since the drama first aired - a lot has happened to the main cast. Two have been effectively cancelled by the Chinese government, one has apparently become a successful farmer, one is widely disliked by Chinese netizens and one quite literally got "burnt".  #PopVultures host Jan Lee discusses How Did We Get Here.

Taxation authorities have pledged to step up supervision on the entertainment industry after a popular actress and an internet influencer were hit with heavy fines for tax evasion.知名网红女演员因偷逃税被罚巨款后，税务机关宣布将加强对娱乐业的监管。Yuan Bingyan, a film and television actress who graduated from the prestigious Shanghai Theatre Academy, was fined almost 3 million yuan ($412,400) by tax authorities in Chongqing, where her company Chongqing Liyan Culture Media Co is registered, according to a statement on the State Taxation Administration's website.国家税务总局网站消息，影视女演员袁冰妍被重庆税务机关罚款近300万元（约合41,2400美元）。袁冰妍毕业于业界权威的上海戏剧学院，其关联公司重庆丽妍文化传媒有限公司注册于重庆。The 31-year-old's fines were for tax evasion and other penalties, including overdue tax payments.31岁的袁冰妍因偷逃税及其他罚金，包括逾期缴税等，被处以罚款。Chongqing Liyan Culture Media Co was separately ordered to pay a 1.32 million yuan fine for unpaid taxes and other penalties. All the fines have been paid, according to the administration's statement.重庆丽妍文化传媒有限公司因未缴税款及其他罚金，先后被追罚132万元。有关部门称，罚款现已全被缴纳。Last year, local taxation authorities imposed a 978,000-yuan fine on Chongqing Liyan Culture Media Co for tax-related misconduct.去年，重庆丽妍文化传媒有限公司因税务相关过失被当地税务机关处以97,8000元罚款。Suspecting tax fraud, local tax authorities reminded Yuan, who held a controlling interest in the company, of their doubts and urged her to rectify the situation. However, Yuan failed to fully report her wrongdoings, prompting authorities to launch a formal investigation.袁冰妍是该公司的控股股东。重庆市税务机关曾怀疑袁存在税务欺诈，对其发出提醒并督促整改。然而袁未能如实上报过失，促使有关部门展开了正式调查。The probe revealed that Yuan did not declare part of her income, and illegally presented her personal spending as corporate expenditure. The practices reduced the amount of both personal and corporate taxes, the statement said.经查，袁冰妍取得的部分收入未如实上报，并将用于个人的消费性支出在其控股关联企业违规列支，以此减少了个人及公司应缴税款。“The tax department will continue to strengthen tax supervision in the field of culture and entertainment, strictly investigate and punish tax-related violations in accordance with the law, constantly improve the tax law compliance of employees and enterprises in the field, and create a fair tax (system),” it said.税务机关表示，“部门将继续加强文娱领域税收监管工作，依法严肃查处涉税违法行为，不断提升文娱领域从业人员及企业的税法遵从度，营造公平的税收系统。”Meanwhile, “gossip” livestreamer Wu Chuan was forced to repay a total of 13.6 million yuan, the taxation administration said in a separate statement.同时，税务机关在另一份声明中表示，网红主播吴川被罚缴纳总计1360万元。Wu, whose broadcasts on short-video platform Douyu can attract as many as 600,000 viewers, had dodged tax and resisted investigation.吴川在斗鱼短视频平台的直播观看人数达60万之多。他曾逃税并拒不接受调查。Better known on the platform by his alias “Soul Knife God”, he evaded 8.27 million yuan in personal income tax between 2018 and 2021 through methods such as concealing earnings or fabricating the nature of some of his income, it said.吴川以其网名“灵魂刀神”而为人所知。声明中指出，他在2018至2021年间通过隐瞒个人所得、伪造收入性质等手段，偷逃个人所得税827万元。According to the statement, tax authorities in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, where Wu is based, initially reached out to the host and asked him to fix his mistakes. However, Wu refused to cooperate, triggering a full inspection.吴川所在的广西壮族自治区税务机关最初要求其自查整改，然而吴拒绝配合，引发了全面审查。Taxation authorities said they will continue to strengthen supervision on livestream hosts, seriously investigate and punish tax-related illegal acts in accordance with the law, and promote the development and standardization of the industry.税务机关称，将继续加强对直播博主的监管工作，依法严肃查处涉税违法行为，促进娱乐业的发展与规范化。The pair are among a growing cohort of wealthy entertainers who have faced steep fines over income tax evasion in recent years as China works to combat unreasonably high incomes as part of the national drive to promote common prosperity.近年来，中国致力于打击不合理的高收入群体以促进国内共同富裕，除袁冰妍和吴川两人外，越来越多富有的娱乐业人员因偷逃个人所得税受到重罚。In a high-profile case in 2018, Fan Bingbing, a top actress with 63 million followers on microblogging platform Sina Weibo, was fined a mammoth 800 million yuan for dodging up to 255 million yuan in personal and corporate taxes. Following the announcement of the fine, Fan made a public apology and said she would overcome all difficulties and pay the fine.2018年的知名案件中，在新浪微博拥有6300万粉丝的顶流女演员范冰冰，因偷逃2亿5500万元个人及公司税款被重罚8亿元。处罚公布后，范冰冰公开道歉，称将克服一切困难缴纳罚款。On Saturday, People.cn, a news website controlled by People's Daily newspaper, published a commentary warning that those who work in entertainment should strictly comply with the tax law and never harbor ideas of tax evasion.9月16日，人民日报名下的新闻网站People.cn发布评论，警告娱乐业人员严格遵守税法，切忌存有逃税的念头。“Celebrities should take the lead in complying with the law and take the initiative to assume social responsibility,” it said. “Unfortunately, some repeatedly evade tax and ignore the legal constraints, and ultimately suffer the consequences,” it said.评论说道，“知名人士应带头遵守法律，主动承担社会责任。不幸的是，一些人反复偷逃税款，无视法律约束，最终将自食其果。”Tax evasion英/ˈtæks ɪveɪʒn/美/ˈtæks ɪveɪʒn/n.偷逃税Net influencern.网红

This week, Vanity Fair contributing editor May Jeong joins Inside the Hive to examine the popular uprising against the Xi Jinping regime over its repressive COVID policies, which have held China's 1.4 billion citizens in virtual captivity. Jeong, who visited China in 2019 to investigate what happened to the country's biggest movie star, Fan Bingbing, sees parallels to recent uprisings in Iran—specifically, women on the front lines. “The intersectional ways in which our struggles are linked is interesting,” she says, “and something that Americans can draw from as well.” Plus, Joe Hagan talks to Emily Jane Fox about her latest feature: a look inside the gilded post–White House life of Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, who want to live a normal, everyday billionaire's existence in Miami—and have no desire to return to DC should Donald Trump win in 2024.

Lady spies + Jessica Chastain = has James written all over it as Nnekay already knew, James would LOVE the new action film The 355! Why didn't this move get any hype? Why are we still dealing with the double standard in hollywood? Is Rotten tomatoes irrelevant now? Can't we just enjoy movies for ourselves? Next up is Yellow Jackets, the Showtime series that's part Lost, part Mean Girls, part Lord of the Flies, and has us hooked!  Insecure has ended. We unpack this groundbreaking series and it's ending. In the main korner Nnekay educates us on Russell City, originally established as a community for Danish immigrants, was a town in the west coast that turned into a vibrant black neighborhood, but what happened to it? Racism. Guest Co-Host: Nnekay FitzClarke (she/her) The MK OG, Nnekay Ayana FitzClarke, Esq. Here to bring all the hoes to the yard with my thoughts, thots, and hots.

PENG SHUAI : OÙ SONT LES DISPARUS DE PÉKIN ? – 23/11/21 Invités FRANÇOIS CLEMENCEAU Rédacteur en chef international - « Le Journal du Dimanche » ARMELLE CHARRIER Éditorialiste en politique internationale - « France 24 » PIERRE HASKI Chroniqueur international - « France Inter » et « L'Obs » MARC JULIENNE Chercheur, responsable des activités Chine et Centre Asie - Institut Français des Relations Internationales Où est Peng Shuai ? C'est la question qui est posée massivement depuis plusieurs jours sur les réseaux sociaux et dans le débat public international par le monde du tennis, les chancelleries et même les Nations unies (ONU). La championne de tennis chinoise, ancienne n°1 mondiale en double, n'avait plus donné signe de vie depuis près de trois semaines. Avant sa disparition, elle avait publié un message sur un réseau social chinois accusant l'ancien vice-Premier ministre chinois Zhang Gaoli de viol. Très rapidement, son témoignage avait été effacé, son compte fermé et elle-même était invisible. Jusqu'à ce week-end où des vidéos et des images de la joueuse ont été publiées sur les réseaux sociaux par des journalistes proches du pouvoir de Pékin. Avec en point d'orgue, ce dimanche, un entretien vidéo avec Thomas Bach, le président du Comité olympique international. Pour autant, cette réapparition, mise en scène par les médias chinois, ne semble pas avoir convaincu grand monde. Lundi, l'ambassade de France en Chine a même publié, en chinois, sur son compte Weibo, le Twitter chinois, un communiqué exprimant son « inquiétude sur le manque d'information au sujet de la situation de Peng Shuai ». « Nous appelons le gouvernement chinois à mettre en œuvre ses engagements à combattre la violence contre les femmes », précise l'ambassade. De son côté, l'association Human Rights Watch a accusé le CIO de relayer « la propagande d'Etat chinoise ». L'ONG a fait remarquer que le comité n'indique pas comment l'entretien diffusé dimanche a été réalisé et rappelle que « le gouvernement chinois fait disparaître des personnes dont les opinions ou la conduite sont vues comme problématiques, emploie des formes extralégales de détention et des tortures et publie des confessions forcées pour que des cas douteux apparaissent légitimes. Les autorités chinoises ont une longue habitude de réduire au silence les critiques, y compris les avocats des droits humains, les journalistes, les lauréats du prix Nobel de la paix » et d'autres personnalités « comme l'homme d'affaires milliardaire Jack Ma, la star Fan Bingbing et le chef d'Interpol, Meng Hongwei ». La championne est en effet loin d'être la première personnalité chinoise à avoir disparu des radars. Mais cette affaire remet sur le devant de la scène ces étranges « disparitions forcées » de personnalités chinoises qui menacent le régime communiste, encore largement entourées de mystère. Et cette fois, il y a une importante mobilisation internationale. Alors est-ce que l'on est à un tournant ? Qu'arrive-t-il aux personnes que le régime fait « disparaître » ? Si la Chine a appelé ce mardi à cesser de « monter en épingle » l'affaire Peng Shuai, à quelques mois des Jeux Olympiques de Pékin, et à près d'un an du XXème Congrès du parti, à l'issue duquel Xi Jinping devrait prolonger son propre mandat présidentiel, quelles pourraient être les conséquences de cette affaire ? Enfin que se passe-t-il dans le détroit de Taïwan ? Une semaine après l'entretien virtuel entre le président chinois et son homologue américain, notamment au sujet de Taïwan, qui cristallise toutes les tensions entre les deux puissances, le passage d'un navire américain dans le détroit pour « démontrer l'engagement des États-Unis en faveur d'une Indo-Pacifique libre et ouverte » a fait vivement réagir l'Empire du Milieu. Xi Jinping a ainsi mis en garde Joe Biden sur le fait qu'encourager l'indépendance de l'île est « une tendance très dangereuse qui revient à jouer avec le feu ».

For years, Chinese producers only had eyes for the “Hollywood model.” That is, big-budget projects and, hopefully, even bigger returns. After volatile times for the Chinese film industry, and events like the Fan Bingbing tax evasion scandal, producers realized that other business models can exist.To explore how this industry is changing, host Aladin Farré held a remote interview with Cristiano Bortone, who runs Bridging the Dragon. This association has connected European and Chinese filmmakers since 2014, with the support of various Western film funds, production companies, and festivals (such as the FIRST International Film Festival — please see episode 23 of Middle Earth). Middle Earth is produced by China Compass Productions. If you have a China-themed cultural product, please get in touch!With thanks to Brenden Gonsalves for graphic design and Sean Calvo for music support.Recommendations:Road Pictures (路画影视传媒 lù huà yǐngshì méi), a Chinese film distribution company that focuses on art house film.

The dirty dudes take a peek at an instant classic, Skiptrace (2016), a movie that spans from Moscow to Hong Kong, a trip mostly on foot it seems. Starring Jackie Chan, Johnny Knoxville, Fan Bingbing, and Eve Torres, the boys go over the highs and lows of a Rush Hour rip off. Alejandro and Christian figure out what their Halloween costumes are going to be, but have a challenge ahead of them. It’s revealed that Jackie Chan is Christian's guardian angel while he showers. Alejandro recalls a story from his childhood that sounds all too familiar.

Summary: In this episode, we dissect two articles featured in the China Influencer Update Newsletter. One is about the Fan Bingbing scandal, and the other is about how influencers calculate their fees. Keije Yi, my assistant, Chinese journalist student, and former intern for famous fashion blogger, Becky Li, joins me on the show today. Keije offers a Chinese perspective of the Fan Bingbing scandal and later shares vital insights about which type of content influences her and her peers the most. To learn more about influencer marketing in China, sign up for our new newsletter: The China Influencer Update!   Show Notes: Fan BingBing’s tax evasion scandal (道歉100天后，范冰冰正式复出：究竟是谁让她东山再起？) Why Fan Bingbing’s scandal did not ruin her The brand niche that saw Fan Bingbing’s scandal as a threat to business The insights Fan Bingbing’s scandal revealed about Chinese consumers Why Fan Bingbing’s scandal recovery has been relatively quick compared to other influencers Which brands will continue partnering with Fan BingBing despite the scandal   How influencers calculate their fees (小红书的算法千人千面，你一个小博主的报价都整出算法了？) How influencer’s price their sponsored posts What brands should know before teaming up with an influencer How large brands develop sponsored content in China Why there is not a sponsored ad process that works every time Original photos vs Brand photos - which performs better The number one detail young Chinese consumers look for in content Why content format needs to vary by product   3 Key Points: Fan Bingbing’s scandal says more about the Chinese people than it does about her. In China, idols are commonly pardoned by their fans. Chinese consumers want the content they are consuming to be authentic and can be very skeptical about what brands produce.   Quotes: “Some brands will keep collaborating with her [Fan BingBing] because, despite the scandal, she has real selling power.” –Keije. “There are several factors that affect an influencer’s price. They will also factor in things like your brand's reputation.” –Lauren. “It also depends on what kind of products and what platforms you are choosing. So, for example, if you recommend an outfit, it is best that you just publish photos on Weibo. For some makeup or skincare product, I would prefer to see them on videos.” –Keije.

The "Dirty Sons of Pitches" are getting spooky in preparation for this Hallow's Eve and watching the new remake "Halloween" which takes place 40 years after the original. It's intended to skip the other sequels and so the guys pitch other new editions that pretend the earlier sequels never existed. They also play another round of America's favorite game, So Shalit Be. Along the way learn all about the imprisonment of Fan Bingbing, Ben's pending litigation, a sad state of affairs for Kurt Russell, and a lot about horror franchises from the 80s and 90s. Available on iTunes. Episode 22 includes: -China releases a popular movie star from house arrest and the DCU welcomes James Gunn to their party. -Producer Jason Blum says there aren't women interested in making horror movies. About that... -"First Man" is mostly boring and "Bad Times at the El Ray" is thrilling. They're both 141 minutes long. Choose wisely. -Nate saw the latest (not) midnight movie from (not) cult filmmaker, Neil Breen. -The new "Halloween" is one half not so great and one half kinda great. It's confusing. -This Week's Pitch -- Sequel Skips! -The guys come up with pitches for new editions of famous sci-fi and horror franchises that forget the earlier sequels. -This Week's Game -- So Shalit Be! -Another episode of new film titles are given the Gene Shalit treatment for pun-heavy reviews and an increasingly depraved sense of Shalit.

SRF-China-Korrespondent Martin Aldrovandi erzählt die ganze Story von Fan Bingbing und zieht Parallelen zum Verschwinden des weltbekannten Künstlers Ai Weiwei vor sieben Jahren.

Ed and Emily catch-up on some of the news stories that broke over the last two weeks, including the Emmys, the controversy surrounding The Predator, and the strange saga of Fan Bingbing.

While typing this description I realized we forgot this week's segment of Bradley Cooper's A Podcast Segment Is Born starring Lady Gaga, so for that... we apologize. Oops. What we remembered, however, is considerably more interesting. Did you know Tinashe is going to be on Dancing With the Stars this season! We're so excited, but worried she won't find room for the fire truck. Other topics: Fan Bingbing (still ?????). Post Malone (cursed). Zachary Bagans (the guy responsible for cursing him). Richard Gere's decades-long friendship to the Dalai Lama (iconic). Alejandra Silva (pregnant). David Harbour (our new nemesis). Whether or not Nancy Sinatra (Them) knows Mark Burnett (Who).

Þátturinn hófst á spjalli Sigrúnar Davíðsdóttur sem að þessu sinni talaði frá Kaupmannahöfn. Hún talaði fyrst um upprifjun í Bretlandi á alþjóðlegu fjármálakreppunni og bankahruninu fyrir tíu árum en Bretar telja sig lítið hafa lært á þeim atburðum og fátt hefur breyst í umhverfi banka og viðskiptalífs. Þá fór hún yfir stöðuna í dönskum stjórnmálum m.t.t. kosningaúrslitanna í Svíþjóð og einkum árangurs Svíþjóðardemókrata. Benti hún á að Danski þjóðarflokkurinn væri rótgróinn og að hefðbundnari flokkar í landinu hefðu færst nær málflutningi hans en t.d. sænsku flokkarnir gagnvart Svíþjóðardemókrötum. Málflutningur vegna endurupptöku Guðmundar- og Geirfinnsmálsins fór fram í Hæstarétti fyrir helgi. Oddgeir Einarsson, verjandi Sævars Marinós Ciesielskis, sagði frá störfum sínum í málinu. Þar sem saksóknari, auk verjenda, krefst sýknu hinna dæmdu telur Oddgeir líklegt að Hæstiréttur kveði upp sýknudóm. Hann getur þó vísað málinu frá með þeim rökum að Endurupptökunefnd er ekki dómstóll að lögum. Oddgeir var ekki fæddur þegar málið kom upp en endurupptökubeiðni Sævars Marinós 1997 (sem var synjað) varð til þess að hann hóf laganám. Oddgeir telur dómara á sínum tíma hafa verið undir áhrifum frá samfélaginu og því komist að sinni niðurstöðu. Hann óttast að enn kunni dómarar að vera undir slíkum samfélagslegum áhrifum. Vera Illugadóttir fjallaði um kínversku leikkonuna Fan Bingbing sem ekkert hefur spurst til frá því í byrjun júní. Hún er stórstjarna í heimalandinu og er hvarf hennar spyrt við átak kínverskra stjórnvalda gegn skattsvikum. Kylfingurinn Tiger Woods er aftur kominn í fremstu röð. Ferill hans hefur tekið nokkra kollhnýsa og í tvígang hefur verið að spá að hann sé á enda. En nú er hann aftur meðal þeirra bestu og verður í Ryder-bikar liði Bandaríkjanna sem mæti úrvalsliði Evrópu í Frakklandi undir lok mánaðar. Ólafur Þór Ágústsson, framkvæmdastjóri Golfklúbbsins Keilis, sagði frá Tiger og magnaðri endurkomu hans. Heimurinn fylgist grannt með og áhugi og peningar margfaldast þegar Tiger er með. Tónlist: Fljúgandi fugl - Fan Bingbing. Fjallabak - Tómas R. Einarsson.

Welcome to the 63rd installment of the Caixin-Sinica Business Brief, a weekly podcast that brings you the most important business stories of the week from China's top source for business and financial news. Produced by Kaiser Kuo of our Sinica Podcast, it features a business news roundup, plus conversations with Caixin reporters and editors. This week: We note that China's largest ride-hailing platform Didi Chuxing said it will resume late-night ride-hailing service after upgrading its safety measures. We explore the effects of the disappearance of Fan Bingbing, China's biggest female film star, and how the Communist Party of China weighs in on everything from the appropriateness of costumes to the salaries of movie stars. We hear about how the revised tax code has made it easier to levy taxes on foreign employees' offshore income, and what that may mean for China attracting foreign talent. We discuss risk aversion in mainland stocks, as Hong Kong stocks follow their mainland counterparts' fall into bear market territory amid some of the weakest turnover in years. We find out that the operator of Alipay, one of China's two dominant mobile-payment apps, has announced it will spend $150 million over the next three years to speed up the development of “mini apps.” We analyze how China has scrapped several family planning departments, fueling speculation that the country may be on the verge of ending its decades-old restrictions on family size. We dive into a new report from the American Chamber of Commerce in China that says two-thirds of American businesses in the country are feeling a pinch from tit-for-tat protective tariffs in the U.S.-China trade war. We learn that China is investigating a former top lottery official on allegations of corruption — the third misconduct case involving a lottery chief in just over a year. In addition, we talk with Caixin Global reporter David Kirton about petrochemical plants in China. We also chat with Doug Young, managing editor of Caixin Global, about the IPOs of electric car maker Nio in New York, and superapp Meituan-Dianping in Hong Kong.

Friend of the show, Tall Chris, is back to take a bite out of "The Meg"! And yes, I completely fucked up and mistook Li Bingbing for Fan Bingbing halfway through. No need for internet crucifixion. It's a fun enough summer movie, though it departs radically from the book (some of which is for the best). Also, is Steve Alten another member of the Hollywood Incels Club? We'll talk about it!

Welcome to the 59th installment of the Caixin-Sinica Business Brief, a weekly podcast that brings you the most important business stories of the week from China's top source for business and financial news. Produced by Kaiser Kuo of our Sinica Podcast, it features a business news roundup, plus conversations with Caixin reporters and editors. This week: We note that China's central bank is set to appoint two new deputy governors in an effort to bring in more expertise to tackle systemic financial risks. We learn that the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is preparing to revise rules to crack down on the practice known as a “reverse takeover,” or “backdoor listing,” as part of efforts to clean up the market, improve the quality of listed companies, and offer better protection to investors. We hear that Medlinker, a Chinese social networking platform for doctors, has become the country's latest unicorn with a new fundraising round that boosts its valuation to more than $1 billion.

In addition, we talk with David Kirton, reporter for Caixin Global, about Germany's move to block Chinese company Yantai Taihai Group from buying a local producer of specialized machinery tools, which is seen as the latest sign that Berlin is toughening its stance on Chinese investments in strategic and security-related sectors.

We hear that shares of Chinese dating app Momo fell by sharply last week after a short seller accused the company of concealing important information from investors. We discuss Shenzhen's OptimumNano Energy, the world's fourth-largest manufacturer of batteries for new-energy vehicles, which told its workers to go on leave for six months as intense competition and high material costs have driven its finances into the red. We discover that China's biggest electric-vehicle carmaker BYD is going to plow $4 billion into quadrupling its car battery output through 2020, despite overcapacity in the industry. We analyze how China's removal of restrictions on foreign investments in gasoline stations will clear the way for global oil giants like BP to operate more wholly owned stations in the country. We find out that Beijing's traffic police are in trouble for allowing the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China to monopolize traffic-fine payments in the capital. In addition, we talk with Tanner Brown, an editor and product director for Caixin Global, about a 19-year-old woman who recently killed herself after being allegedly sexually assaulted by her teacher, and what this case says about suicide in China.

Fan Bingbing ranked first on the Forbes list of Chinese celebrities 2015 with an income of 128 million yuan. However, this is not hard for some Chinese Internet celebrities to achieve. How could they manage to make such a big amount of fortune?

更多信息参见今天微信头条~Chinese actress Fan Bingbing has recently promoted her upcoming historical movie Lady of the Dynasty in Beijing. In the movie Lady of the Dynasty, or "Wang Chao De Nv Ren-Yang Guifei" ("王朝的女人-杨贵妃") in Chinese, Fan acts the Tang-dynasty Emperor Xuanzong's beloved concubine, Yang Yuhuan. The entire film centers on the legendary royal romance.The leading actress said, however, it is not her maiden screen role as the famed concubine."I acted Yang Yuhuan in a TV drama series about ten years ago. At that time, I wondered if I would become a film actress. Then I would be able to act as the famed concubine again, and portray the character wholeheartedly. And now I'm really lucky to have my dream come true a decade later."On the other hand, Cheng Shiqing, who used to lead the China region business of Pacific Century Premium Developments, is experiencing his first directorial work.Big names are reported to be involved in the directing team, including Zhang Yimou 张艺谋 and Tian Zhuangzhuang 田壮壮.Hong Kong actor Leon Lai Ming plays Emperor Xuanzong in the historical epic. Shi Qing comments on his performance. "Leon Lai Ming is super in his majestic manner acting as a real emperor in this movie. Meanwhile he also effectively portrays Emperor Xuanzong as a man of good breeding."Another important role in the movie is Yang Yuhuan's first lover Li Mao, who is also the 18th son of Emperor Xuanzong.Bruneian singer-actor Wu Chun (吴尊) plays Li Mao, the Prince of Shou. The director recalls how Wu Chun was working hard for portraying a particular scene."There is a scene in the film about a horse dragging Wu Chun away when it broke into a furious gallop. I asked him then if he needed a stunt man, but he insisted he could do it by himself, with one leg hung on the saddle. All that we could do was clear small stones on road in advance. He is indeed a dedicated actor with professionalism."The film was first announced in early 2009, but filming was pushed back to late 2011 after a British production company withdrew its investment. At that time, in addition to Fan Bingbing, American singer-songwriter and actor Leehom Wang (王力宏), Hong Kong-born American actor John Lone (尊龍), and Japanese actor Shun Oguri (小栗旬) were reportedly cast in the lead roles. Later due to scheduling conflicts, John Lone, Leehom Wang, and Shun Oguri left the cast. Production finally resumed in August 2013, with Leon Lai Ming and Wu Chun replacing the original leads.To date, this historical epic recounting the legend romance of Yang Guifei has been formally announced for release on Thursday, July 30th.

Xiaohua: The TV drama Saga of Wu Zetian was previously pulled off air after female characters appeared on screen showing cleavage. Now it returns to the screen, though this time all the scenes with obvious cleavage were reedited, leaving only the actresses’ heads. 近日，由范冰冰主演的热播电视剧《武媚娘传奇》在被叫停4天之后复播，剧中的“武媚娘”等女性的胸部镜头全部被剪，网友戏称电视剧变成了《武大头传奇》。First of all, do you think is this the reason that the show got pulled off and then got on? Is it because of the cleavage thing?Zhou Heyang: Well, I can only speculate here, but I would come to the conclusion that this is probably at least a partial reason if not the main reason why this show disappeared on screen for only four days rather abruptly. And I think it’s, well when you look at the new version, the only real change is that there are major close-ups in like every scene and you don’t see the actors…John: Below the chin.Zhou Heyang: Below the neck and above the eyebrows. It’s very difficult to see the beautiful hair ornaments and anything above that, so it just focuses on the face and nothing else.John: Well, I think for me it’s interesting, because I never heard this story. Obviously, I don’t really pay attention to TV and movies, Chinese or otherwise. So for me it’s interesting, because I got the chance actually to watch the first episode last night. And first of all, my initial impression was it was a horrible TV show and I would not recommend it to anyone. It just seems like yetanother silly soap opera, melodramatic piece of tripe. So I think that you know, first of all, there is that, but at the same time, you know, we should necessarily expect anything more at this point. But for someone who had no experience of the TV show before it was pulled and reedited, I couldn’t really tell that much of a difference. It just seems like some of the shots yes they were a little odd, there were some like cuts where there might have been panning shots things like that. The framing was off sometimes, but in general I didn’t feel like there were much taken away, but that could be partly because it was just bad to begin with.Zhou Heyang: But I don’t think it’s that bad to begin with. Maybe there is a debate whether the story is told in a favorable way or not or whether it’s interesting or not. But when you look at the production, they invested a lot of money. John: Yeah, a lot of money.Zhou Heyang: And you’ve got major stars, such as Fan Bingbing.John: I know. I do want to say that I think in general the production value is much higher. They obviously invested a lot more money into the technology, so in terms of the recording itself but also the post production. There has been a lot of working on post-production outside the whole cleavage issue I think. I was disappointed, however, to see the voices were still dubbed. With that high production value they shouldn’t be all that dubbed, but in general the acting was OK, but the story doesn’t make any sense.Zhou Heyang: Well, there are a lot of reasons why…Well, there are some official reasons given out whether this is the reason why this reediting happened, so there was the, you know, technical reasons and also there was the quota argument that because the TV station was already airing too many period pieces. But I think those reasons when you weigh that against, you know, all those cleavage scenes which might seem a little bit strange to Chinese people, because I think in our culture, even today for female to show cleavage in public, it’s still considered a bit uncouth or maybe just going too far, whereas in like western cultures, I think showing cleavage isn’t really that a big deal. You see that in office environment, so people wearing suits, you know very official office wear, and it’s not really that a big of a deal. I think there is a quite difference there.John: Yeah, cleavage is a bit more normal. I will give you that, but it is strange. I mean, you know, whether or not it’s about cleavage all. Yes, I mean it seems pretty obvious after the edits, but at the same time, you know, this type of cleavage has been on TV shows on Chinese television before, it’s been in famous movies and it hasn’t been that much of issue. I think the fact was on Hunan Satellite Television was telling. They were always the ones that pushing the limits a little bit and pushing the envelope in terms of what is allowed in a sense. So you know I’m not surprised to see this is them getting in trouble in a sense for whatever it might has been.Xiaohua: Yeah, maybe purely because there are too many episodes with it, and somebody couldn’t stand too many episodes of cleavage on TV.Zhou Heyang: And also it’s like the really popular show right now and with Fan Bingbing’s star power, I think it has drawn actually more people to watch it now, because all of the fuss about the reediting.John: Yeah, that’s actually a very good point. I don’t’ think I have heard it, had it not been cut and then re-aired.Xiaohua: Also do you think there is automatically a way to solve this problem which seems to always bother authorities, that is appropriateness?Zhou Heyang: Well, there is always the argument that we should protect the minors, but if we have a rating system in movies and TV series, I think it would solve the problem.

If you decide to watch Chinese wuxia fantasy film "The White Haired Witch of Lunar Kingdom" or Baifa Monü Zhuan, make sure you've read the original novel by Liang Yusheng, otherwise you'll have to use your imagination to sail through the film's problematic storyline. Liang Yusheng is one of the three most important wuxia-story writers in China. His 1957 novel Baifa Monü Zhuan tells of the romance between a young swordsman Zhuo Yihang and his lover Lian Nichang. Set near the end of the Ming Dynasty, the story also depicts an ailing empire plagued by internal corruption and Manchurian invasion. Director Jacob Cheung's film adaptation has failed to reconcile the subplots, and as a result the narrative develops like a deserted bonsai, with wild grass shooting at various directions. The most obvious strain of runaway storyline is the love story. A few inventive alterations notwithstanding, it seems the director is utterly incapable of romantic thinking. His way of showing the beginning of affections is to have two beautiful actor and actress gazing into each other's eyes while spinning in midair and slow motion. His ultimate weapon is actor Huang Xiaoming's perfectly symmetric face and Fan Bingbing's whitewashed one. They serve as silent but eloquent accusations against anyone who dares to doubt their sincerity. Obviously people with good looks belong together, if not then there are some serious problems with the story. A second subplot is the court intrigue. The director devotes considerable screen time to the depiction of a eunuch who usurps imperial power to prosecute upright political adversaries. Our hero Zhuo Yihang is one of his victims, so naturally we expect some major bloodshed before the closing credits. But before he has time to deliver on his promise of revenge, some emergency at the nation's border demands our attention, and our hero is summoned to save the day. It is in the latter half of the film that we finally see the title character take the central stage. That's when both leading characters show abrupt changes in their personalities. The previously strong and confident hero Zhuo Yihang suddenly becomes as feeble as a lamb, while the loving Lian Nichang simply goes berserk. The character inconsistency suggests the filmmakers have placed their attention elsewhere, although no one can tell exactly where. Perhaps the only commendable part of this film is the post production. There are plenty of computer generated visual spectacles to show off the lunar kingdom. The splendor looks artificial, but is impressive nonetheless.

Adapted from the bestselling fantasy novel, the movie tells the story of grave robbers and is going to hit the big screen next year. Let's follow Zeng Liang to dig up more. The online fiction, "Ghost Blows Out the Light", or "Gui Chui Deng" in Chinese, has gripped the hearts of countless readers, thanks to its mysterious and suspenseful plots. Since it was published in 2006, the book has become one of the bestselling novels in China. Now, its movie adaptation, "The Ghouls," is schedule to be released in 2015, which will no doubt delight its many loyal readers. Set in the 1980s, the novel follows a former soldier and his partner as they raid tombs in search of treasure. The two team up with an American archaeologist after they fall victim to a curse. In order to release themselves from it, they have to seek clues among many mythical sites. Wuershan,who once helmed the record-setting fantasy, "Painted Skin: The Resurrection", is going to direct the new movie. The director says he has spent two years preparing for this film. "I have visited many tombs. I've also visited many museums to speak with archeologists. I have learned many things, including Feng Shui and extreme sports. Still, I think that two years of preparation is not enough." Since there are many supernatural elements in the book, fans question how the film version will portray spiritual content. Chen Guofu, the film's producer, answers: "Everything the fans love about the book will be present in the film, but we will find a more scientific and reasonable approach to explain these phenomena." Filming starts in August, but the cast list has yet to be unearthed. For Studio Plus, this is Zeng Liang. 完整文稿可登陆以下网址： http://english.cri.cn/7146/2014/05/08/3481s825552.htm

Hello and welcome to this edition of "In the Spotlight", a show featuring arts, culture and showbiz from right here in China. I'm your host Li Ningjing. The fourth Beijing International Film Festival has just concluded in Beijing. The Festival attracted film makers, distributors and film lovers from all over the world, including movie stars Jean Reno, Lea Seydoux and Adrien Brody as well as Chinese actresses Zhang Ziyi, Fan Bingbing and Liu Yifei. American director Oliver Stone, "Gravity" director Alfonso Cuaron and Hong Kong director John Woo also joined the forums at the festival to share their views on film making and the future of the global film industry. So in this special edition of In the Spotlight, we'll focus on the Beijing International Film Festival and take an in-depth look at the state of the Chinese movie industry, which seems to be showing causes of worry for industry insiders despite impressive box office gains. We'll also be speaking with Mexican director Alfonso Cuaron on his recent Oscar win and possible collaboration with China. On top of that, a restoration of a famous 1930s Chinese production, The Goddess also screened during the festival. These stories and more are all in the pipeline. Do stay with us. ******************************** Alfonso Cuaron is one of the most fascinating directors in the world, especially after his win at the Oscars this year for his film, Gravity. Now, he is sharing his wisdom with young filmmakers in China at the Beijing International Film Festival. Our reporter Doris Wang caught up with him to get a glimpse inside the mind of this creative genius. That was Doris Wang talking to Alfonso Cuaron about his Oscar win and the possibility of making a movie in China. ******************************** This is Alfonso Cuaron's second visit to Beijng. He was talkative when sharing his impressions of the mega city. "It's vast. It's huge. It's polluted. And also at the same time it's of a big energy. Also you can feel that it's a city of young people. You can see that. You can feel that in the street. Of course I've going around in the historical sites. They are absolutely amazing. What I really enjoyed is getting lost in Hutongs." Cuaron admitted that his mandarin was not amazing. He turned to body language when he was lost in the Hutong alleys and needed to ask for directions. But he added that he found familiarity between himself and the people he met in Beijing's Hutongs. "I have gestured to them. And they gestured back and talked to me. And maybe they laughed. But I found again it felt somehow familiar. The region. The experience. There is warm as well. That again it feels for me similar from where I come from. It's completely different cultures. But there's familiarity to me." for compelte script: http://english.cri.cn/7146/2014/04/22/3301s823313.htm
