In the Beginning, I Just Wanted to Make Money

Chapter 792 Who Are You? (Down)

Zhang Yimou’s Oscar-winning work!

Perhaps he himself said, 'Actually, everyone in the industry knows that the Oscars are only an American award and an American judging standard. Unlike other film festivals, it does not represent the highest level...'

In "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", Ni Ni plays Yu Mo, who falls into the world of mortals but is rebellious, charming yet dignified;

Instructor Li, played by Tong Dawei, sacrifices his life just for the sake of his duty as a soldier and the future of his country;

The shots and colors in the movie also maintain Zhang Yi's consistent standards, making people addicted to it, and the filming is amazing...

But these are not worth mentioning in the context of "white male protagonist".

"The Hollywood Reporter" once wrote a film review of "The Thirteen Hairpins", and the content is very meaningful:

"You may think that only the most unscrupulous Hollywood producers can think of adding a love scene to such a tragic subject as the Nanjing Massacre, but this is exactly the main line of "The Thirteen Beauties"."

He was severely mocked!

As for Zhang Weiping's 'accusation', Shen Xudong doesn't care at all...

Shen Xudong's goal has been achieved: for all movies released by Tianmei in the future, the distribution ratio with theaters will be dynamically adjusted, 45% in the first week, 43% in the second week, 41% in the third week, and 40% after the fourth week. %…

"First Love", "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" and "Plastic Surgery Diary" released in January all use this method of splitting accounts!

Now that the main goal has been achieved, Zhang Weiping's matter is no longer a big deal...

But Gao Fenfen didn't think so. She called Shen Xudong directly to return to the company to discuss in detail how to deal with it.

"It's not necessary. If he gives the key, we will show it normally. If he doesn't give the key, we won't show it..."

"Then...our theater will be completely empty?"

"Why is it empty? "First Love", "The Legend of Hongmen Banquet" and "The Magician" are not movies?"

Gao Fenfen shook his head: "Other theaters are showing "The Thirteen Beauties of Jinling", but we don't..."

Shen Xudong didn't care: "Then... Zhang Weiping said he would stop issuing keys. What can I do?"

Gao Fenfen glanced at Gao Jun, and then suggested: "...How about we move "Dragon Gate Flying Swords" to the 12th?"

"Are you crazy?" Shen Xudong was speechless: "I'll go to the company and let's talk in detail!"

Zhang Weiping's move directly brought "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" to the forefront...

He was very proud of himself. With the headlines, his domineering side was revealed. Most importantly, Zhang Yimou was directly opposed to Tianmei Media!

Kill three birds with one stone!

Let you poach me...

Little did they know that Zhang Yi was completely speechless...

There are too many tricks. When he originally bought the copyright of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", because he was worried that the related TV series would be released in advance and disrupt the situation, Zhang Yi bought the film and television rights together. During the filming of "Thirteen Hairpins", Yan Geling found Zhang Yi Mou wants to buy back the rights to adapt the TV series because Hunan Radio Station wants to adapt the TV series.

Zhang Yimou told her that when the movie is almost finished, he will return the TV series copyright to her free of charge. This will not only protect the interests of the movie from being harmed, but also give her something in return.

Then, Zhang Weiping directly sold the TV series rights of "The Thirteen Beauties of Jinling" behind his back...

In this way, Zhang Yimou directly broke his trust with Yan Geling, and Yan Geling also broke his trust with the production company that he had negotiated with... He went back on his word and promised too little, which made Zhang Yimou very dissatisfied;

Additionally, the casting…

I heard that Zhang Weiping wanted to use Han Tingxi to play Yumo, but Zhang Yimou insisted on using Nini. Zhang Weiping agreed, and then ordered him, "If Han Tingxi is not going to play Yumo in this movie, then she must be the heroine in the next movie!" ’

Zhang Yimou couldn't stand it anymore.

Then he started disappearing

Of course, Zhang Weiping didn't know it. During the interview, he was still bragging about his 1 billion box office plan: "The Chinese film market has about 1.5 billion box office every month. I don't want all of it. 1 billion, let others share the rest!"

By the way, he also stepped on "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate": "Also, Martial Arts 3D. Everyone has watched 3D. Apart from "Avatar", which one has become famous? Including my partner Jiang Zhiqiang, they all lost money, and the worst loss was "Su Qier" ", then it's called 3D, and it has Zhou Jielun as the lead, what a big deal it is, and it cost tens of millions!"

When asked about the ban on Jiahe Cinema, he looked proud: "I just want to show them how powerful they are!"

"Is there any personal grudge?"

"Absolutely not. First, I don't know Shen Xudong. I haven't said a word to him until now. I'm really not familiar with him. I just act in accordance with the contract. Second, as long as they publicly apologize, I will unblock him!"

After Shen Xudong arrived at the company, a group of people were discussing Zhang Weiping's "public apology"...

"Public apology? What apology?"

"...You're finally here."

Gao Fenfen called him over: "Look, the latest news on Weibo!"

Shen Xudong looked at it for a moment...and then couldn't help laughing...

He... never thought that Zhang Weiping actually wanted Tianmei to apologize?

I just...can't understand this guy's brain at all.

He finally stopped laughing: "He...is he...not in his right mind?"

Gao Jun was also happy: "I'm used to being overbearing. If you think about the movie market in the past, the audience only watched Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang's movies all year round... The theaters had no choice but to agree."

"Then the situation is different now, can't he see that?"

"he…"

Gao Jun didn't know how to explain, so Chen Xi interjected: "Zhang Weiping has absolute trust in Zhang Yimou, and he feels that with Yimou in hand, I own the world!"

Shen Xudong sighed: "...What a genius!"

"So, what are we going to do? Are we going to respond?"

Shen Xudong shook his head decisively: "Response? Who is he? Respond to him? Give him face?"

"Then... we just don't care?"

"Why bother with him?"

"Then what if he really stops issuing keys?"

"Then we will schedule more "First Love" and "Legend of Hongmen Banquet"..." Speaking of this, Shen Xudong suddenly thought of something: "Li Rengang has learned well this time and knows how to add the word 'legend'!"

Chen Xi answered: "If he doesn't learn to behave, he will be labeled as a historical idiot!"

"I heard that the legendary "Hongmen Banquet" was Li Rengang's work replacing Lu Chuan?"

"...Yes, that's right!"

In 2009, Starlight International filed a script with the tentative title "Hongmen Banquet" at the Film Bureau and found Lu Chuan, who had just finished filming "Nanjing! Nanjing!".

In November of the same year, a launch ceremony was held for the film, but before filming, Lu Chuan and his investors had differences in their creative ideas.

Lu Chuan wants to show history and human nature through "Hongmen Banquet"...

Then, Lu Chuan was kicked out!

Starlight International hired Li Rengang to take over the filming.

"Our company has also planned the theme of the Chu-Han War before, right?"

"...Can't find the right actor."

"Three bosses!" Gao Jun couldn't help it: "We have to respond!"

"Yes, yes, respond..." Shen Xudong took out his mobile phone and finished it in one minute: "Response is ready!"

"Enthusiasm" is quite good. The story of the poor second generation defeating the rich second generation was the only one Dapeng was willing to make...
