Chapter 941: The predators behind the scenes make a move

As an actor working hard in Hollywood, Ye Ming received domestic support for the first time, and the great director Zhang Yimou expressed his views for the first time, supporting Ye Ming to protect his rights and interests, and hoped that the relevant US authorities could thoroughly investigate whether this matter was discriminatory against the Chinese.

Feng Xiaogang directly persuaded Ye Ming not to do it in Hollywood, and to go back to China to play, the two of them can cooperate to make a good movie again, which is better than being angry with others in Hollywood.

And even Brother Chen Kai, who had the most bad temper with Ye Ming, made an exception to express his support for Ye Ming, stood on Ye Ming's side, and expressed regret for some of Hollywood's practices.

This is where Chen Kaige is clever, as a great director, not only is the movie good, but also in other aspects, it is necessary to show enough emotional intelligence.

And this time Brother Chen Kai did quite well, because they all knew that he and Ye Ming had a bad relationship, but at this time, the entire Huaxia entertainment circle was standing behind Ye Ming, and Brother Chen Kai naturally would not be stupid to oppose Ye Ming, on the contrary, he expressed his understanding and sympathy for Ye Ming's experience.

In Hong Kong, Cheng Long and Li Lianjie also expressed their views for the first time, hoping that the actors' union would give Ye Yeming a satisfactory answer.

And they say this kind of discrimination is very likely to happen in Hollywood.

And it can be seen from these words that the two of them have encountered similar problems in Hollywood. In Hollywood, Zhou Yunfa and Hou Xiaoxian, the director of Baodao, went to the hospital to see Ye Ming and expressed their indignation at this incident.

At this time, South Korea's director Kang Digui also directly supported Ye Ming and expressed Ye Ming's greetings. And director Guo Jae-yong expressed his praise for Ye Ming's acting skills, believing that this is Hollywood's discrimination against Asians.

On the Japanese side, Takeshi Kitano also expressed his opinion at a press conference, Ye Ming is a very good director, and Hollywood is like an Asian person. It is clearly racist.

Anyway, no matter what you say, Asian filmmakers insist on standing on Ye Ming's side, thinking that Hollywood people have not practiced racial discrimination against them.

And it's not just Asian filmmakers who look at it like this, in fact, in the United States, Murdoch expressed concern about this matter, and Arnold Schwarzenegger called the Screen Actors Guild directly. It is required that the actors' union must give a reasonable explanation for this matter.

In the process of preparing for Jackson's concert, he also said that this kind of racial discrimination in the United States has been around for a long time, and he felt ashamed of what happened to Ye Ming.

In short, the public opinion of Yiqiē directly pointed to Ye Ming's racial discrimination, which was a very unfavorable situation for Spielberg. If it is said that the crew suffered from such a large area of food poisoning, which is already a very unlucky problem, then at this time, Ye Ming's encounter is suspected of racial momentum. It's a very troublesome thing.

If you can't solve such a problem well, then in such a matter, the Screen Actors Guild can directly kill this movie, which is definitely not impossible in the United States.

Don't look at the production company of this movie is very powerful, it is Fox and DreamWorks and other six units, but if it is said that once the crime of racial discrimination in this film is implemented, it is not uncommon for the lawyers of the Screen Actors Guild to be able to directly fight the lawsuit for three or five years.

The point is to say. In such a situation, what did Ye Ming think. Ye Ming believes that he doesn't believe such a thing, and what kind of evidence does the New York Post reporter have, and whether such evidence can fully prove Jeffrey's behavior.

Judging from the photos published in the newspaper, even if the New York Post does not fully grasp such evidence, it has a relatively good understanding of the whole thing. The truth of at least part of the facts will be known.

In such a situation, Barry Diller, the president of Fox Corporation, immediately convened people to study the countermeasures of such a matter, which even affected News Corporation, the parent company of Fox Corporation, because Murdoch, a media tycoon, was also very surprised to express his concern about such a matter.

Because Murdoch has always been not very much in charge of his family's film company, let it be done by professional people.

But this time, Murdoch took the initiative to call and care about the matter. And. Murdoch also expressed his opinion, he would rather let the film of the minority report film be thrown into the warehouse and completely stop the filming of the film, but he could not be subjected to the opinion that his crew was suspected of racial discrimination because of this.

On such a question, in fact, no one wants to bear this charge in the United States, no matter what it may say. Although racial discrimination is ubiquitous in the United States, on the surface, no one wants to bear such a crime.

In such a critical situation, Diller's mood can be imagined.

On this Fox company's urgent recollection, Dieller quickly came up with a solution to the problem, one is to find Spelberg to find out what happened to this matter, if it is really the same as the New York Post reporter said, Jeffrey must be fired directly.

In fact, in such a situation, the New York Post would not have the guts to falsify. If the New York Post dared to make a joke about framing Fox on this issue at such a time, then Fox would definitely report the New York Post to bankruptcy.

Therefore, there is almost no doubt about this matter. And the actual results of the investigation are the same, Jeffrey really did such a thing, and there is no doubt about the expulsion. The second thing Diller had to do was to talk to Spielberg about what would happen next.

Even though Spielberg was in the hospital, Diller came to the hospital in front of more than 30 reporters.

Of course, because of the control of the parent company, News Corporation, those reporters generally rarely ask Diller difficult questions.

After entering the hospital, Diller's first words were to Spielberg: "I think we're in big trouble, are you guys idle and panicked without doing something, and now you know how much trouble you've caused our company?"

Spielberg is a great director, very talented. can make money for the company, and in fact Spielberg has his own company, and DreamWorks is Spielberg's own company, at this time, Diller and Spielberg are actually in a cooperative and equal relationship.

So, in the face of a question like Diller's. Spielberg said with a smile: "What's so great about this matter, just spend money directly to settle it, it's too common for such news to appear in the entertainment industry, but I didn't expect that this time it would be reported by the people in the newspaper." If I know someone leaked this kind of news, I'll kill him?"

It can be seen that Spielberg is very annoyed by this matter, and this kind of annoyance and anger can be said.

Seeing that Spielberg was still indifferent to this matter, he didn't take this matter seriously at all. Dieller said helplessly: "Please take this matter seriously, don't be so negligent." ”

Spielberg obviously really didn't take it very seriously, and it seemed to him that it was just an internal matter of the crew, and that Jeffrey, the bastard, did things too uncleanly.

No matter what you say, it was he who made this matter like this, and he didn't know that he was filmed and didn't know it, and it was definitely an idiot's behavior.

Therefore, Spielberg thinks that Jeffrey's words are being dealt with. Then this problem can be solved.

In one of these questions, Spielberg thinks some of the things that happen to many Hollywood movie crews are similar.

Therefore. Spielberg said with some disapproval of Diller's words: "This matter, it's not a big deal, I can deal with this matter directly after I am discharged from the hospital, you can rest assured."

I would make people believe that it was an ordinary accident. It's food poisoning, and the laxative is just croton powder, which is said to be a Chinese seasoning, well, it is said that the chef used the croton powder as a Chinese seasoning. That's a good explanation.

Because Ye Ming is from Huaxia, the crew also specially made a Huaxia box lunch for him, which the entire crew knows. So it's not a big deal to settle the matter. ”

Spielberg is obviously very confident in his influence in the entertainment industry, and his contempt for journalists is also obvious on such a question.

At this time, Diller said helplessly: "Actually, if this matter can be solved as simply as you say, it would be good."

On such an issue, Mr. Murdoch also expressed his concern about the matter, and his words were that he would rather let the film of the minority report be thrown in the treasury than bear the stain of racial discrimination. Do you know what that means?"

As a businessman, the favorite thing is to make money naturally.

But in such a situation, Murdoch would rather lose money than make a big deal out of it, which means that Murdoch compromised.

Spielberg obviously understands what such a problem is.

He thought about it for a moment and said, "Could it be because someone made a move, who made a move on this matter?" ”

Diylor said very helplessly: "It was Soros who made a move, and you also know very well about Soros's quantum fund, this guy is Ye Ming's partner, a person who is a partner with an old fox like Soros, do you think he is a simple person? Mr. Murdoch now wants to buy Hughes Electronics, and Soros obviously wants to intervene in this matter." ”

Hughes Electronics, perhaps many people will be relatively unfamiliar, but many people will not be unfamiliar with a company under Hughes Electronics. DirectTV。 That is, the largest satellite television station in the United States.

Murdoch obviously wants to enter the American market, which is the most critical step, but Soros made a move, for Ye Ming, it was just an excuse, in fact, it was for the sake of Hughes Electronics. ”

If it is said that there is no person behind this matter, then in the entertainment industry, Spielberg is also very easy to settle, even if Ye Ming has a brilliant network, but Spielberg also has a dream factory.

Therefore, in such a situation, Spielberg also felt that Ye Ming was in control. But if there is an excuse like Soros to get involved, things are completely different.

Soros is like a pack of wolves, he couldn't find a reason to eat the fat of Hughes Electronics, but if it was because of a fulcrum like Ye Ming, it was not impossible for him to pry Murdoch's News Corp. Quantum funds have always been the kind of funds that can be small and big.

At this time, Spielberg felt that such a thing was more troublesome, and if someone of Soros's level was involved, it would be very troublesome.

Therefore, he thought for a while and said: "Otherwise, let's talk to Ye Ming, Ye Ming is the party after all, and if it is said that Ye Ming should have the most say in this matter." As long as he, the victim, doesn't say anything, then the others don't have much excuse. ”

There is nothing wrong with this, if Ye Ming is an ordinary actor, then this matter can almost be handled in this way, but Ye Ming is obviously not an ordinary actor.

In such a matter, Ye Ming was originally the party who was discriminated against, and went directly to the hospital, so it was strange that Ye Ming was not angry at this time.

And at this time, Ye Ming obviously knew the news, and it would not be easy to ask Ye Ming to cooperate with the publicity. The most important thing is that Ye Ming is not just an actor, he is the boss of Brilliant Network, as a person who can have the courage to sue the US government, this really makes people feel that Ye Ming's courage is not ordinary.

Therefore, you can't use the simple identity of an actor to consider such a problem, and in such a matter, you must adopt an equal attitude in the dialogue with Ye Ming. Ye Ming is qualified enough to receive such treatment.

Although Ye Ming is not a superstar in Hollywood, his status in the field of capital does make people have to admire this young man's mind. At this time, it is obviously not a wise decision to suppress such a person.

Since it cannot be suppressed, it is necessary to cooperate. (To be continued......)
