Chapter 1127: I Want to Be Private
No one expected that the incident of "Liu Changqing" would trigger a confrontation between the media of China and the United States, and it became more and more intense.
After the official voice of the Huaxia government was issued, the influence of this event was pushed to a climax and became the focus of global entertainment news.
Seeing this scene, not only Yang Ming was stunned, but many film companies in Hollywood were also on their knees.
As for it?
At best, it's just a movie!!
This is the real idea in the minds of the media and Hollywood.
Everyone understands that the reason why there is the "Liu Changqing" incident is purely because some people in business look at Oriental DreamWorks unpleasantly and deliberately provoke some media to target this movie, how can someone take a huge risk to provoke the dignity of the Chinese people?
Tired of living, right?
However, after Yang Ming received a call from Liu Xinsheng and read the overwhelming comments on the Internet, he instantly understood the pride in the hearts of the Chinese people in this world.
The history of the late Qing Dynasty, which was full of humiliation, can be borne calmly, engraved in their hearts, and constantly remind themselves not to forget the past.
But they absolutely do not allow anyone to slander China, beautify this history, or even directly erase this history because of this!
If it is really in accordance with the requirements of the media in the United States, the plot of "Liu Changqing" was modified to save the Chinese nation at that time and bring light to all Chinese!
- Phew!
It is estimated that if there is such a plot, it is estimated that before the movie is released, countless Chinese people will be sprayed with saliva.
Yang Ming saw the messages of countless ordinary netizens on the Internet, as well as the comments and support on his personal neck, which triggered a resonance in his heart that had never been there, but was always imprinted in the depths of his soul.
This kind of resonance from the depths of the soul and the pride of being a member of the Chinese nation makes Yang Ming, who has always been free from this world since his rebirth, truly integrate into this world!
The attention of the Chinese government, especially the announcement of the Ministry of Commerce, made Hollywood in the United States shocked.
Why did you let the group of guys from the Ministry of Commerce of China target them again?
The memory brought by the Ministry of Commerce of China to Hollywood in the United States is absolutely heartfelt and unbearable.
In other words, which country in the world has not been deeply remembered by the Ministry of Commerce in China?
And this memory is bound to be a tragic memory.
The domineering style of the Chinese Ministry of Commerce is well-known all over the world, but people also have such confidence.
Backed by the world's largest market in East Asia, no matter what, the Ministry of Commerce of China is already in an invincible position.
Originally, with the development of the Chinese film market in recent years, the introduction of foreign films has increased, so that Hollywood's share of the Chinese film box office has increased year by year, and with East Asia, this is the world's largest film box office market.
How is it possible not to get Hollywood to take it seriously?
But now, because of a small matter, it has aroused the anger of the Chinese people, which has made the Huaxia Ministry of Commerce reshift its attention to the film market, so that the Hollywood guys are frightened, for fear that the Huaxia Ministry of Commerce will once again make a decision to restrict the introduction of Hollywood Pictures.
Under the 'public outrage' of all Hollywood studios, what is going on with an immediate investigation?
Who deliberately used the plot of "Liu Changqing" to deliberately provoke the emotions of the Chinese people?
To be honest, stumbling over the Chinese-language film "Liu Changqing" filmed by Oriental DreamWorks, or publishing some unfavorable news about the film in the media, is not a big deal for Hollywood at all.
There are even people who are happy to see someone targeting Oriental DreamWorks and that genius in China.
But can Nima choose a reliable excuse?
The plot of "Liu Changqing" is suspected of smearing the historical image of the United States?
Originally, there were many people who thought that this reason was too good to make the film management department of the United States ban the screening of this movie.
But judging from the fierce reaction from Huaxia's side now, the person who came up with this trick is simply stupid.
In fact, these people are all hindsight, who would have thought that the Chinese people are so sensitive to modern history.
There are also many people who can't wait for the machine gun in their hands, and now they will surprise the person who came up with this idea!
Nima, in fact, like the incident of "Liu Changqing" this time, there have been similar things before.
It's just that the media at that time was not as developed as it is now, and not many people remember the events of that year now.
As the most powerful country in the world today, China has always been relatively tough in handling various international affairs, and during the Cold War, China's film industry did not miss historical events in the country's modern history, and the roles played by Western countries in these historical films were all disgraceful negative images.
It can be said that as long as it is a historical Chinese-language movie shot during that period, the Western countries that appear in the movie all represent evil bosses!
In this regard, the West has not been less protesting.
But only protests.
After all, this is real history.
There are such cases, and now there is no fuss about similar plots appearing again in Chinese-language movies.
What's more, Hollywood, as a symbol of the film industry in the United States, knows very well that the theme of "Liu Changqing" is not deliberately promoting the history of the United States invading China, but as a historical background, the selling point of this movie is the action kung fu of China!
Now that things are getting bigger, it can be said that "Liu Changqing" suddenly has the upper hand in public opinion.
It is better not to use this 'loophole' against Oriental DreamWorks at the beginning.
But it's too late to say anything.
They now wonder who did this?
――――
CAA Headquarters.
"Edgar, are you sure this incident is not your handiwork?"
In the spacious and bright office, Wayne looked at Edgar, another giant of the company, with a suspicious expression.
Now that the incident of "Liu Changqing" is becoming more and more impactful, the official government of the United States is also having a headache, if it is another small country, it will be slapped back directly.
Fairness, rice is fairness, freedom, freedom, justice, justice, justice!
The key opponent is Huaxia, which is stronger than the United States, especially the East Asian market controlled by the other party, which has a crucial impact on the United States.
In this case, how could the United States have a bad relationship with the Ministry of Commerce of China for a trivial matter?
Now there is news from the government side, whoever pulls the S, who will wipe him clean!
To put it bluntly, the United States is a commercial country, and everything is centered on trade and commerce, and to a certain extent, the attitude of the commercial consortium represents a change in the foreign policy of the United States.
Hollywood is one such example.
The Hollywood film industry wants to expand to the whole world, and the East Asian film market is a market that cannot be bypassed.
In recent years, Huaxia has relaxed restrictions on Hollywood films, not so much as official negotiations, but the result of Hollywood's promotion behind the scenes.
It can be seen that Hollywood's influence in the cultural industry of the United States.
"It's really not me!" Edgar said helplessly, he didn't know how many calls he had received in the past few days, asking if he had done it this time, which shows that in most people's hearts, Edgar is the most suspicious person.
After all, as the core giant of CAA, he has the strength and motivation to do this.
"Speed Drift" can be the most important project that Edgar has in hand right now, and Oriental DreamWorks is his competitor, and it is hard to guarantee that he did not deliberately create this targeting incident in order to disgust his competitors.
Edgar saw that Wayne was still suspicious and disbelieving, he slapped the sofa angrily and said loudly: "Wayne, it's really not me!
"If it were me, I would never have used such a childish means, it would simply insult everyone's IQ!"
In the end, Edgar looked unhappy, he really couldn't understand why everyone thought that this childish target was from him?
Is he really that unbearable in the eyes of others?
"Alright!" Wayne raised his hand to signal Edgar not to be angry.
He had already determined in his heart that it was not Edgar's doing, and in the other party's words, if it was really Edgar's action, things would definitely not be so simple.
"Could it be the Emperor's side?" Edgar frowned and muttered.
Wayne immediately shook his head when he heard this, and said categorically: "It can't be Dimei, Harrison is not such a fool, if he makes a move, this time Oriental DreamWorks will definitely not have such a good time." ”
Hearing Wayne's words, Edgar was even more unhappy in his heart, you think so highly of Harrison, is he not as good as Harrison?
However, he only thought about it for a moment and didn't say it.
"Who the hell is that?" Wayne tapped his fingers on the table, and after a moment, his eyes lit up, and he said, "If nothing else, it's likely that the Kirkley idiot did it, and he's the only one who hates Bobble." ”
In fact, he knew very well that Corkley hated Bobble so much that he wanted to drink his blood and eat his flesh!
Because the more successful Bobble is now, the more failed Corkley is.
It was precisely because of Barber that Corkley became the laughing stock of everyone in Hollywood, his personal reputation plummeted, and the so-called parliamentary title will soon disappear.
In the other party's heart, how can he not hate Bobble to the core?
The reason why the Chinese movie "Liu Changqing" is targeted must be because Corkley is angry with the signboard of Oriental DreamWorks.
"What if it's really Corkley?" asked Edgar, looking rather ugly.
When Wayne saw Edgar's expression, he suddenly thought about why the other party's face was so ugly.
"Speed Drift" is a project led by Edgar, and if Corkley is really to be taken out to blame, then Pan American Entertainment will inevitably be implicated.
In case this "Speed Drift" is also blocked by Huaxia by killing chickens and monkeys, the loss will be great.
As soon as he thought of this, Wayne felt a headache, couldn't help but pat his forehead, and said, "This Corkley is really troublesome!"
The two discussed for a long time, but they didn't come up with a good solution.
But you can't affect the whole of Hollywood and be targeted by Huaxia because of Corkeley alone, right?
For several days, the media public opinion caused by "Liu Changqing" did not stop.
The confrontation between the media of China and the United States is still the focus of news reports.
Even if Hollywood's attitude has changed, not everyone in the local media in the United States has bought Hollywood's account.
Besides, this is also about the dignity of the country.
Can't because the Huaxia government came forward, the United States will kneel all of a sudden, right?
It's simply impossible.
――――――
The Lion City of China.
Yang Ming received a call from Tao Lao.
"Yang Ming, an old friend of mine in the United States was entrusted, this time your Oriental DreamWorks' "Liu Changqing" was purely caused by unscrupulous tabloids in order to create news focus, they said that they would absolutely respect the history of China, and would never ask your company to make any changes to the plot of the movie, and "Liu Changqing" will be released as scheduled!" Tao Lao said slowly on the phone.
"Huh!" Yang Ming was overjoyed when he heard the news brought by Tao Lao, such a victory was really a rare experience for him, but the more he listened, the more he felt that something seemed to be wrong.
It seems that the other party shrank too fast!
It's as if I want to put this matter to rest immediately!
But if that's the case, then the price paid by the other party is too small, right?
Want to send him away in a few words?
Yang Ming's small citizen mentality in his bones couldn't help but start to rise again, he coughed lightly, and said: "Old Tao, is that all that was said over there? If that's the case, I don't think there's much difference between solving it and not solving it, so let this matter continue." ”
Hearing Yang Ming's answer, Tao Lao laughed on the phone, and laughed loudly: "I know that your kid is unwilling to suffer this loss!"
"Don't worry, I've already fought for you. This time, for the release of "Liu Changqing" in the United States, the other party will arrange for you to release it in 500 theaters, and it will not be offline in advance due to any factors. ”
"Are they helping others?" Yang Ming was a little dumbfounded when he heard such conditions.
Even, he almost blurted out just now, is this the Lei Feng of the United States in this world?
Although 500 theaters is not much, it is really a lot for a Chinese-language movie.
If the box office of the movie is not good, then the other party will really lose a lot this time.
Even he didn't dare to release it on such a large scale in AMC's theaters at first, and only arranged about 100 theaters for test screenings, and if the box office results were okay, he would expand the scale.
Obviously, this time the other party was bleeding profusely.
"What the hell is going on?" To be honest, at this stage of development, Yang Ming is really a little confused, and he can't figure out what's going on, after all, his background in the local film industry is still too shallow, and it's okay in China, but he can't figure it out a little bit about the doorway between the film circles of the two countries.
Tao Lao guessed that Yang Ming would ask like this, and he was happy to point out Yang Ming: "You are still young, and you don't know that Hollywood in the United States planted a big heel in China back then, when their movies were full of relationships between men and women, and there were a lot of ambiguous scenes, they were very famous in the film market all over the world, and the same is true in China, attracting countless audiences to buy tickets and enter, local films have been greatly impacted, and then many film companies follow the trend and want to make this kind of movie, which suddenly violated the taboo, and then the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Culture joined forces to restrict Hollywood." ”
Hearing Tao Lao's words, Yang Ming suddenly realized that there was such a thing.
Hollywood has planted such a big heel in China, so naturally it doesn't want to be caught by the Huaxia government anymore, so it wants to be secretive.
Well, it seems that his appetite could be a little bigger!
