Entertainment, I just like making movies

Imperial capital.

In a restaurant on the Fourth Ring Road.

Lu Chuan and Jia Zhangke were sitting by the window, eating mutton and talking in low voices.

"Senior Brother Jia, this public opinion storm should be enough for Fang Ziheng to drink a pot."

"It's hard to say. Fang Ziheng is cunning and cunning. The seven films he has directed have been invested by other companies. Huayi, Guangxian and Bona may not be the same."

Jia Zhangke took a sip of rice wine and murmured while looking at the scenery outside the window.

Lu Chuan sat opposite him, stirred the hot pot with chopsticks, picked up a piece of cooked mutton, put it in the mixing bowl, and hummed softly: "Fang Ziheng himself may be able to escape, but his Hengyu Media It’s not that easy.”

"Ha! Four movies were released at the end of the year, and all of them were hits. I don't believe Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian, and Yu Dong are not jealous!"

"Even if Hengyu can be king this year, several major companies cannot directly invest in Hengyu's projects. What about next year? Next year, Fang Ziheng will be so generous and give away the projects he controls!"

Lu Chuan's expression was sharp, and his words were filled with indescribable honeyed confidence!

The public opinion on the Internet was that he and Jia Zhangke were behind it. They secretly found someone to expose that Hengyu Media was dominating the Lunar New Year period and was trying to monopolize the film industry.

The purpose of the two of them was actually very simple. They wanted to cause trouble for Fang Ziheng and sow discord between him and several major film and television companies.

As the saying goes, it is rude to come and not reciprocate!

Fang Ziheng repeatedly messed with the two brothers. The two sides have long been rivals. Even if they are fighting to the death, there is no way they can live in harmony.

Lu Chuan is not Jia Zhangke, who only focuses on making award-winning literary and artistic films. He has been in the Chinese film and television industry and is very aware of the urinary behavior of major companies in the entertainment industry.

Especially the three listed companies Huayi, Guangxian and Bona.

The three companies have not dealt with each other for a long time. On the surface, they seem to be in harmony, but in fact they are ruthless against each other secretly.

After Fang Ziheng debuted, he rose at an extremely fast rate and reached the top of Chinese-language films in just two years.

Under his coordination, several companies started to engage in foreign affairs and support domestic affairs this year, and it was rare that they did not fight again.

When "The King's Feast" was finalized, Lu Chuan approached Wang Zhonglei and wanted to have a head-on confrontation with Fang Ziheng.

When Wang Zhonglei heard this, he was frightened.

Not only did he not help, but he also advised him to be cautious. What he said implicitly was that he was not optimistic about the competition between "The King's Feast" and "The Secret of the Dragon".

Lu Chuan's proposal was rejected by his good friend Wang Zhonglei before it reached Wang Zhongjun.

Without Huayi's clique, Lu Chuan had no choice but to think of another way. Finally, he teamed up with Jia Zhangke and came up with the idea of ​​using public opinion to blackmail Hengyu Media and sow discord between Fang Ziheng and several major companies.

Not to mention, this move really played into the hands of the entertainment media.

Although the major entertainment media took Hengyu's money and ended up cheering for "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate", "Year of Dreams", and "Search for the Dragon", it does not mean that they do not want to cause trouble.

heat!

Explosive!

It is always the ultimate news pursued by the entertainment media.

Leveraging the power of public opinion, he suppressed the giants in the entertainment industry and became the uncrowned king in the eyes of the public.

Almost no entertainment media is willing to miss this kind of opportunity that comes to your doorstep!

Imperial Entertainment.

Lu Chuan's first target was a media outlet that Fang Ziheng had always been at odds with.

Under his operation, several articles about soft girls were in the hands of Imperial Entertainment yesterday afternoon and appeared on the Internet in the evening.

The deputy editor of Didu Entertainment personally edited the soft girl, which was very confusing and shocking.

The deputy editor's name is Liu Hong, and he is the salty middle-aged man who provocatively interviewed Fang Ziheng several times before!

Ring bell

The cell phone rang, Lu Chuan put down his chopsticks and answered the call.

"Hello!"

"Brother Chuan, it's done, hurry up and check Weibo!"

An excited male voice came from the phone.

Hearing this, Lu Chuan smiled, very happily.

He quickly hung up the phone, picked up the rice wine and said to Jia Zhangke: "Brother, it's done!"

"Diddu Entertainment takes action for the second time. Liu Hong uses money to do things and confronts Fang Ziheng and Hengyu Media!"

"OK!"

Jia Zhangke's face lit up, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp!

December 15th, one o'clock in the afternoon.

A 10,000-word manifesto titled "When filmmakers become capital, the film market is monopolized" was trending on Weibo and spread to all major public opinion platforms across the Internet as quickly as possible.

As soon as the declaration came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the entertainment industry.

The article tells the story of a talented filmmaker who went from a university graduate to a well-known giant in the entertainment industry in just three years.

This filmmaker used his movies to knock on the door of capital. He first became a guest of major film and television production companies, and then developed his companies with great courage. In only three years, he became a leading figure in the Chinese film and television industry.

The opening chapter is extremely objective, discussing things from facts, making it impossible to find any faults.

Anyone who reads the manifesto will think that it is an article praising Fang Ziheng and that it was written by his favorite movie fans.

But what follows is the core of the problem.

After the opening, the article first explained that Hengyu Media Group controlled and distributed a number of movies in the two years of 2010/2011, and almost every one of them was a hit.

Then the topic changed. The article quoted a story about a dragon slayer who eventually became an evil dragon, shouting that Hengyu Media Group had forgotten its original intention and used capital and connections to suppress movies released at the same time, so that the audience could only watch movies produced by Hengyu.

Then for example, since the release of "Edge of Tomorrow" in the summer last year, many evening news on national satellite TV helped promote it and suppressed "Painted Skin" which was released at the same time. As a result, "Painted Skin", which was originally able to break through 500 million box office, only barely exceeded 400 million.

The second example is "Love Is Not Blind", which was released in November. Before the movie was released, it teamed up with Internet Capital to create a "Singles' Day" stunt.

After the release, Hengyu unclogged the nationwide theater system and obtained an average of 50% of the film schedule for "Thirty-day Love", allowing more than ten movies in the same period to share the remaining film schedule.

The Hengyu family is full and the rest of the movie is starved to death!

Third example.

In December, Hengyu has three movies released, working together to grab the Lunar New Year movie market, leaving other movies with nowhere to go.

""Flying Swords of Dragon Gate", "Year of Dreams", and "Search for the Dragon", the ambition of Hengyu Group is obvious. Three movies are squeezed into the theaters within one month, just to grab the most popular movie schedule of the year. Harvest the money in the hands of the people at the end of the year!"

"Hengyu Media Group, the biggest cancer in the entertainment industry, is using its huge capital, production team, and superior network to realize its grand goal of monopolizing the film market step by step!"

The article of 10,000 words is well-founded.

The main writer has excellent writing style, with a sense of compassion and compassion, not for power, but has no choice but to stand up and speak out for the entertainment and film circles.

Everyone who reads this article can't help but feel shocked.

Are Fang Ziheng and his Hengyu Media really so strong?

Yes!

It’s just that strong!

There are nine truths and one falsehood in this declaration. Except for exaggerating Hengyu’s influence and accusing Hengyu of monopolizing the market, the rest of the statements are true.

"Haha, that's right. The products produced by Hengyu must be high-quality. I, Emperor Hengyu, am awesome!"

"Interesting and interesting, you can't be too virtuous. I learned from Fang Ziheng in making movies. I have to watch "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" today!"

"What a fool! The article here is simply sensational. Do you want to bring down Fang Ziheng?"

"Uncle Di Du Entertainment, an entertainment company that reports gossip news, knows everything about movies and the film and television industry!"

"The article talks about the environment in the film and television industry. Why Hengyu Media chose to release the films during the Lunar New Year period? It's because people have enough money at the end of the year!"

"Let's not talk about monopoly. I feel outrageous every time Fang Ziheng produces a movie. How can it be possible for all of them to be such hits!"

"Haha, I don't know if he is a movie genius or not. Anyway, this guy has done a lot of bad things. He will snatch Liu Qianqian from me."

Countless people on the Internet, movie fans, fans of Hengyu's artists, and even fans of other celebrities in the entertainment industry are excited.

They are melon-eaters, but they don’t care about monopoly and dominance!

Movies have little impact on their lives. They can watch them if they want to, but not if they don't want to.

There are still a few giants in the entertainment industry. How far can Hengyu Media dominate and bite their eggs?

The thinking of the people who eat melons is very strange. On the contrary, they value the movies produced by Hengyu every year. There is really no bad movie.

Although netizens' comments accounted for the hot spots, they obviously did not meet the expectations of Imperial Entertainment, Lu Chuan, and Jia Zhangke.

Immediately afterwards, the navy behind the scenes came to an end.

Groups of sunspots appeared in groups, setting the pace on Weibo and promoting the threat theory of Hengyu Media.

In less than half an hour, the originally relatively harmonious Internet became full of chaos.

At this time, other entertainment media that saw the leader also took the initiative to repost and comment on this article.

The comments were surprisingly unanimous: "I hope Hengyu Media can stop this!!"

These media are very shrewd and use moderation to point out that Hengyu will release three movies during the Lunar New Year period to show that they stand on an objective stance.

By the afternoon, more and more people were joining in the comments.

The topic of the comments suddenly changed from attacking Hengyu Media to another channel.

"A film and television company can produce and release up to several movies in one schedule!" 》

Many experts and professors also boasted about strange things. First, they criticized Hengyu Media, saying that Hengyu fights in groups and bullies the weak.

Later, he called on major film and television companies to compete in a healthy manner and only release one or two movies per schedule to jointly expand the movie market.

Lu Chuan's house.

He sat in front of the computer, looking at the comments on the Internet with an embarrassed expression, and mentally cursing the melon-eaters for their incompetence.

You mobs scolded me and "Nanjing Nanjing" so fiercely that you wanted to eat my flesh and drink my blood.

Why are you so weak now? Fang Ziheng is so groveling and polite!

grass!

There are also Huayi, Guangxian, Bona, Wanda Pictures, and Galloping Pony. What are you doing? Are you asleep?

This is the perfect time to beat up the lost dog and kill Hengyu Media!

I've handed you the sword, so go ahead and use it!

No one is talking!

Not a single one of the major film and television companies in the entertainment industry, and celebrities big and small, complained about it. Even the opponents who were being interviewed to promote the release of the movie, no one said anything wrong with Fang Ziheng and Hengyu Media.

Snapped!

Lu Chuan slapped the computer shut, cursed, picked up a backpack and went out.

"The King's Feast" is about to be released, and he has to fly to Shonan with the team to participate in an interview and promotion on Mango TV.

Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian, Yu Dong, you bunch of cowards, eggless guys.

I, Lu Chuan, am ashamed to be with you!

Senior Brother Lu thinks too much. It's not that Wang Zhongjun and others don't have ideas, but even if they have ideas, they won't do anything openly.

Hengyu Media Group is strong as it is strong, after all, it has not yet been listed.

If you ask listed companies like them to promote the monopoly and market dominance of an unlisted company, no fool will believe it.

What's more, Huayi produced 12 movies this year, including seven for Guangsheng and nine for Bona, which are no less than those produced by Hengyu Media Group.

They really have no reason to jump out and attack.

Of course.

If there is no reason, you can think of a reason.

Near Baoli Group, in a high-end teahouse.

Fang Ziheng, Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian, and Bona were sitting in a luxurious tea room, slowly sipping expensive tea.

Wang Zhongjun was the initiator. He was sitting on the main seat, holding a purple clay pot and pouring tea for the three of them. He said with a smile: "Director Fang, the people behind the scenes are evil. Who have you offended?"

"Yes, Director Fang, you have always been kind to others. It is understandable that this kind of thing happens to others, but it should not happen to you and Hengyu!"

Wang Changtian took a sip of tea and answered with a faint expression.

Fang Ziheng took out his cigarette, spread it around, and said calmly: "The King of Hell is easy to mess with, and the kid is hard to deal with. I don't even know who I've offended, but I want to kill Heng Yu!"

As he spoke, his eyes glanced sharply at Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian, and Yu Dong, with an unclear meaning deep in his eyes.

"Director Fang, don't look at us like that, it wasn't us!"

Yu Dong smiled bitterly, lit the cigarette and took a deep breath and said: "Director Fang is willing to allocate the project to us. Yu is too late to be grateful, so how can he add insult to injury behind his back!"

"That's right, Fang Dong must not fall into other people's attempts to alienate him!"

Wang Zhongjun and Wang Changtian nodded, looking like good old guys on the surface.

The two of them sighed inwardly.

Pity.

Hengyu's momentum has been established and cannot be stopped!

Since there's nothing that can be done to stop him, just pluck some hair off and use it as money to buy Fang Ziheng's way.

The two looked at each other and said one after another: "Director Fang, it's time to start "Detective Chinatown" and "The Four Famous Catchers" next year, right?"

As soon as these words came out, Fang Ziheng rolled his eyes.

Damn it!

What a departure!

These two bitches want to fight against the autumn wind again!

Drink too much!

He immediately shook his head and rejected the two of them.

"Not so fast. I have to shoot "The Great Wall" next year. The total investment in this movie is 500 million, so I can't be distracted!"

"Three of you, "The Great Wall" is the real big project. If you three want to participate, you can talk to Wanda Songge!"

After refusing, Fang Ziheng continued to speak, bringing the topic to "The Great Wall" and Song Ge.

He clearly told the three of them that if they wanted to eat meat, they could talk to Wanda.

Huayi, Guangxian, and Bona all have opportunities to seize food from Wanda, but at most one of them will succeed and win about 10 points of investment share.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian and Yu Dong smiled, picked up the tea and drank it all, while cursing Fang Ziheng in their hearts for being treacherous.

Tsk tsk

Talk to Wanda, you don’t need to talk to me!

A tea party lasted for almost two hours.

The alliance between Hengyu, Huayi, Guangxian and Bona is still stable and has not been broken due to public opinion on the Internet.

After leaving the house, Fang Ziheng invited Wang Changtian alone and told him about establishing a distribution company in conjunction with SMI and Baoli.

Wang Changtian was very interested and immediately made an appointment to discuss the details in two days.

He has indeed long wanted to expand his glossy publishing business, but has been unable to find a good way. Now that Hengyu is taking the stage, he certainly doesn't want to miss it.

After the two things were done, Fang Ziheng drove home humming a ditty.

Just after arriving home, Lin Feifei called.

On the phone, Sister Lin was very anxious and said with a bit of worry: "Lao Fang, someone from Alibaba is here, saying that he wants to buy a stake in the company, and the price is 5 billion soft sister coins!"
