Chapter 407: Meeting
"The Zhang family?" Bai Chongshi's nostrils snorted coldly, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and then he glanced at the subordinate in front of him with dissatisfaction, and said, "Do you think the Zhang family can still take care of these miscellaneous matters now?"
When this middle-aged uncle-aged staff member heard the words of his boss, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
He suddenly remembered that recently, because Oriental DreamWorks was suddenly blocked by major TV stations, many media in China suddenly linked this matter with the Zhang family, who had a grudge with Yang Ming because of the lawsuit, and the overwhelming news reports made the Zhang family a wolf, and now how can they take care of retaliation against Yang Ming.
Of course, what Bai Chongshi and this subordinate didn't know was that Yang Ming and Liu Xinsheng also spent a lot of effort on this.
In particular, Liu Xinsheng bribed many reporters according to Yang Ming's instructions, put Yang Ming and Oriental DreamWorks on the weak side, and portrayed victims who were suppressed by the powerful, which won a lot of sympathy in front of the public.
There is no way, since ancient times, there has been an element of hatred for the rich and hatred of power in the bones of Huaxia.
Otherwise, how could the phrase 'princes and princes have a kind of Xiangning' that has been passed down for thousands of years.
Bai Chongshi saw the trembling appearance of his subordinates, frowned, rubbed his eyebrows, and then said: "Put this matter aside for the time being, and put your energy into our company's affairs first, now it is too much to deal with them." ”
Now that the Spring Festival has just passed, it is the time for every company to start implementing its plans for the new year, and Zhonghuang Entertainment also has a number of major plays to shoot this year, and all aspects of things make him doppelganger, and he really doesn't have much energy to put on other things.
The most important thing is that now that kid actually has a media channel in his own hands, which makes him a bit of a mouse-thrower.
To be honest, in today's Huaxia, as the uncrowned king of the media, he is much more majestic than in his previous life.
There are even some news reports that make the government and well-known large group companies busy, and even at the time of the general election, the media with huge influence is the object of the political forces from all walks of life, so to speak, in this world, as long as the media is bigger, the status is very high, and the intangible rights are even greater.
Therefore, Bai Chongshi saw that Phoenix TV's current thriving performance, especially its news commentary programs on domestic current affairs and politics, has won the support of countless people in China in recent days.
If the other party wants to fight to the death with Zhonghuang Entertainment and report some shady scenes of Zhonghuang Entertainment, it will really outweigh the losses for him.
Bai Chongshi didn't want to face this situation, anyway, there were more opportunities to deal with that kid in the future, and he didn't have to use such an obvious means as guò, so after thinking about it, he temporarily extinguished the idea of blocking Phoenix TV.
"You go down!" Since the decision was made, Bai Chongshi waved his hand to signal his subordinates to go out, and when he saw the figures of his subordinates leaving, he couldn't help but sigh faintly in his heart, "They are all in the media, why is there such a big gap?"
He couldn't help but think of the four media companies that had been ruined by Yang Ming before, to be honest, even he didn't expect that an ordinary boy with no background would make the four media so miserable.
The feeling of this deficit is incredible to think about.
However, these four media companies have also committed a big taboo, in China, even if the media exposes the shocking shady scenes of the government, they will not be made to such a point, because the public will never allow it.
But these four media, the worst thing is that they actually weave fake news to slander a self-made teenager, and they also let people seize the handle, plus the influence of 'Cheng Xue's Law' a few years ago, under the attention of domestic and foreign media, these four media can only be ruined.
However, I didn't expect that kid to turn his buttocks, get a TV station by himself, make a media of his own, and have a certain right to speak, the key is that this newly established Phoenix TV station, whether it is a program or a model, has been commented by many experts that it has a bright future, and it is very likely to become a first-line TV station in China in the future.
"This kid's luck is just too good. Bai Chongshi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it's a pity that he doesn't mix with the film industry now, otherwise he can slap him to death.
Now that the resources of Zhonghuang Entertainment are all concentrated in the film industry, it is raining and cloudy, except for those old opponents, no one can threaten Zhonghuang Entertainment, otherwise he can play as much as he wants to kill that kid.
However, now facing that kid, Bai Chongshi actually has a feeling of helplessness, and he is beyond the reach of Yang Ming, who has not yet entered the film industry.
Bai Chongshi thought about it, and temporarily let go of these thoughts in his heart, anyway, there will be more opportunities in the future.
The next day, Yang Ming didn't go to class, and sent a text message to Su Su in the morning, saying that he would go out to deal with the company's affairs, and drive to the café that Hua Xiaoyue said.
Now Yang Ming is a man of the year in the film academy, because of his own affairs, it is impossible to come to class every day, so he specially asked the old dean to get this privilege, although he attracted the criticism of other high-level leaders of the academy, but he still paid a lot of conditions.
First of all, popcorn network should support students in the graduate circle of the college.
After Yang Mingti, the operation model of Popcorn has undergone earth-shaking changes, especially the Internet UGC model in which users upload videos to share with other netizens, which has attracted countless photography enthusiasts to upload their usual short videos to the Internet.
Especially when Yang Ming filmed two or three episodes first, and then let the fat man Wang Fa and three roommates take over the "Never Expected" became a big hit, this kind of short drama videos have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, which has greatly increased the influence of popcorn network.
Among them, there are also many college graduates who have come out through these short drama videos, and they have won the favor of some film and television companies and received a certain amount of investment.
As soon as this situation appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of countless film school students.
There are dozens of film schools in Huaxia, and although the number of directors and actors who graduate every year is not an astronomical number, it is slowly becoming a very large number compared to the entertainment industry.
With the progress of the times and society, entering the entertainment industry has become more and more cruel to new graduates.
A newly graduated directing student immediately wants to take charge of the microphone and shoot movies independently, except for a few rich second generations, it is simply impossible, even if he enters the film and television company step by step and stays up for ten years, the opportunity is still very slim.
It can be said that the employment of graduates of the directing department is very serious every year, and it is impossible to think about having the opportunity to direct independently immediately, and then talk about it after ten or twenty years.
In the face of this kind of shape, there are many directing students who can't see their way out, so they will choose other careers, such as advertising shooting, or entering TV stations, which is still better, and the last job of some directing students has nothing to do with movies at all.
There's no way around it, let's eat first.
Speaking of acting students, they are a little better than directing students, but they are also limited.
Although there are stories of newcomers soaring into the sky every year, this number is simply not worth mentioning compared to the number of students who graduate from the acting department every year.
Most newcomers enter the entertainment industry, starting from the trick and slowly boiling out.
And some of these beautiful female students, in order to do their best to rise to the top and emerge, for the so-called star dream, will succumb to the conditions offered by some people, which has the so-called unspoken rules.
The cruel reality faced by graduates every year makes Huaxia's film academies and art academies bleed in their hearts, but they have nothing to do, this is the reality.
However, now the UGC model of popcorn network makes all film schools shine.
Using an ordinary DV or video camera to shoot a short story video short drama can face the public, and if it forms a huge influence, it can be described as fame and fortune.
This not only allowed the filming director students to accumulate directing experience, but also allowed the acting students who showed their faces to show their faces for a while and have a certain popularity.
The bottom line is that it doesn't come at a great price!
How much does a DV camera cost? And what art college doesn't have a few cameras?
Needless to say, the actor is not a regular system, he can show his face and become popular.
As for the venue props, just look at the big hit "Never Expected", there is no need at all, some props and costumes, there are not a lot of college warehouses of various art types, you can always find a suitable one.
It can be said that after Yang Mingjian, the sudden revision of Popcorn Network, all kinds of effects and reactions, made all the colleges related to film and television in China feel bright, and they can't help but think that this may be a means to solve the employment pressure of graduates every year.
Originally, in those art colleges, the graduation report performance of graduates every year was carried out in the form of a stage play, and as for making a graduation film, it was only a very rare and not universal at all.
However, now there is this UGC model of popcorn network, and film and television schools can use this model to let the students of their own colleges produce a short drama video with little investment and put it on the Internet, so that netizens and the public can evaluate the ability of their own students.
Moreover, in this way, really good works and students can get ahead, accumulate experience and become famous quickly.
Therefore, as soon as each college had this idea, it immediately put it into practical action, and for a while, countless short drama videos were uploaded to the popcorn network, which greatly enriched the video resources of the website.
When the old dean saw this qiē, he naturally would not let go of this good opportunity, and while encouraging the students of the college to shoot a short drama video, he put his mind on the owner of Popcorn Network, that is, Mr. Yang Ming, a student of his own college!
Yang Ming wanted to ask the old dean for the privilege of asking for leave, so he was naturally pinched by the old man at once, it was okay to ask for leave, but popcorn had to support the students of his own college.
Faced with the old man's request, Yang Ming thought that he had something to ask for, so he pinched his nose and agreed to the old man's conditions.
However, the old man still refused to let go of Yang Ming, he asked Yang Ming if he could get a special version of the Yenching Film Academy alone, and the old man did not forget to add influence and reputation to the academy for a moment.
Yang Ming heard the old man's condition, thought about it and agreed, anyway, it's not a bad thing, he handed over this matter to Ma Yun to do, and it is estimated that it will come out in a few days.
Because of these, Yang Ming will ask for leave so easily and hang out.
Yang Ming was driving, thinking about these things, and pondered in his heart, if Popcorn Network alone gets a special edition for its own college, other domestic film and television schools will definitely contact the website to get a special edition, and the website may not be able to refuse at that time, after all, the website is just a platform, and there is no reason to go to these things that offend people.
After thinking about this, he couldn't help but think of Hua Xiaoyue, who was about to meet, and couldn't help but get entangled in his heart, this matter is really not easy to do.
When Yang Ming went to the fragrant café and entered the door, he swept around, but didn't find Hua Xiaoyue, it seemed that she hadn't arrived yet, so he found a corner and sat down, ordered a cup of coffee, and slowly waited for Hua Xiaoyue's arrival.
In his spare time, he took out his mobile phone and read some of today's news reports.
After a long time, when Yang Ming was fascinated, he suddenly felt that someone was sitting opposite him, he looked up and found that Hua Xiaoyue had come, put away his mobile phone, and said softly: "You are here!"
Hua Xiaoyue didn't say anything, looked at Yang Ming, and then nodded.
Yang Ming looked at Hua Xiaoyue, he suddenly found that he hadn't seen her for a month, Hua Xiaoyue was significantly thinner than before, it seemed that she was not doing well during this time.
"You've lost weight. Yang Ming sighed.
Hua Xiaoyue's eyes turned red when she heard this, as if tears were about to fall, and then she immediately turned her head to the other side, holding back the grief in her heart, and after a while, Hua Xiaoyue controlled her emotions and snorted coldly: "What does it have to do with you whether I am thin or not, anyway, you don't have a phone call!"
"Alas!" Yang Ming didn't know what to say at this time, so he could only sigh faintly, he was not a person who liked to find reasons to shirk, but the reason was really impossible to say, and there were thousands of clues. After thinking about it, it's worth diverting the topic and asking, "What do you drink?"
"Whatever. Hua Xiaoyue's expression was still not good.
Yang Ming was a little speechless when he heard this answer, but Hua Xiaoyue was like this, he was very understandable, he didn't say much, called the waiter over, and ordered a cup of cappuccino, which is a kind of coffee that Hua Xiaoyue usually likes to drink.
Seeing that Yang Ming still remembered his preferences, Hua Xiaoyue's expression finally returned to a little normal, and it was no longer so ugly.
However, the two looked at each other, but neither of them spoke, so they looked at each other quietly, until the waiter brought the coffee they ordered, and neither of them said a word.
"Drink some coffee first. Yang Ming saw Hua Xiaoyue sitting there like this, so he had to break the silence and say.
Hua Xiaoyue silently picked up the coffee, took a sip, and after putting down the cup, she looked at Yang Ming seriously and asked, "Why didn't you call me?"
Alas, what should come is coming after all, hearing Hua Xiaoyue's question, Yang Ming sighed faintly in his heart, although this question is very simple, it is really difficult to answer.
Yang Ming didn't know what to say for a while.
Seeing Yang Ming's silent appearance, Hua Xiaoyue had a cold face and continued to ask: "In your eyes, have you never taken me to heart, have you never regarded me as a friend?"
The question was straightforward, but it meant something, and as for the meaning, they both knew it very well in their hearts, but they never pierced the last layer of paper.
Faced with such a situation, Yang Ming took a deep breath, he looked sideways in another direction, and then after a while, as if he had made up his mind, he turned his head, looked at Hua Xiaoyue, and said slowly:
"Satsuki, I don't call you because I can't and can't call!"
"Yes, as a friend, I should be able to ask you for help if something happens, but I can't do that because I'm a man!"
Hearing Yang Ming's serious and calm words, as well as the painful look in Yang Ming's eyes, Hua Xiaoyue couldn't help but tremble a little in the depths of her heart.
"The reason why you were grounded by the family, Brother Hua also sued me, hehe!" Yang Ming said this, with a wry smile on his face: "Hehe, using women, eating soft rice, I can't stand this hat, in this case, do you think I will seek your help?"
Yang Ming lowered his head and said softly: "Moreover, you should know, I can't give you any promises!"
When Hua Xiaoyue heard this, there was a pain in her heart, and her feelings finally couldn't be controlled, two crystal tears slowly came out of her eyes, sliding down her cheeks, and she immediately pulled out a piece of tissue paper on the table and wiped her eyes.
Although she had already been prepared, when she really heard this answer, she still couldn't accept it.
However, isn't his character exactly what she likes? If Yang Ming really stepped on two boats, liking the rich and hating the poor, Hua Xiaoyue would not be able to like Yang Ming at all.
Sometimes, the result and the like are so contradictory, what you like, the result you get, but not the result you want.
That's how fate likes to play tricks on people.
Hua Xiaoyue thought of this, and for a while, the tears finally couldn't hold back and flowed down in an uproar.
Seeing Hua Xiaoyue's appearance, Yang Ming sighed faintly, stretched out his hand and took out the face paper, handed it to Hua Xiaoyue, and said: "Xiaoyue, sometimes fate is like this, the result is already doomed, how good it would be if there was no first meeting in life!"
"I don't care, I won't give up anyway!" Hua Xiaoyue suddenly turned pale and said viciously to Yang Ming.
Yang Ming's face was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't react, only to see Hua Xiaoyue continue: "However, don't worry, I won't embarrass you, and I won't fight with Su Su or anything!"
Hearing Hua Xiaoyue's words, Yang Ming couldn't help but show a relaxed look on his face, seeing Yang Ming like this, Hua Xiaoyue couldn't help but kick Yang Ming hard under the table and said, "You don't worry about me like this!"
"No, no!" Yang Ming hurriedly said embarrassedly.
At this time, Hua Xiaoyue regained her previous brutal nature, stared at Yang Ming and said: "Anyway, I don't care, I only have one request now, my first movie, I will be the heroine!"
"Eh!" Yang Ming was stunned when he heard this, he really didn't expect Hua Xiaoyue to mention this condition, and how could Hua Xiaoyue know that he was going to make a movie? He suddenly thought of asking Chen Yongjun to help buy the theater chain, and guessed the news that Hua Xiaoyue got from it.
He couldn't help but hesitate: "But, but, you have no acting experience?"
"I don't care, anyway, no matter what, I just want to play the heroine of your first movie, and the male protagonist must also be played by you, I don't want to hear any explanation!" Hua Xiaoyue said with a cold face......
Although she had already been prepared, when she really heard this answer, she still couldn't accept it.
However, isn't his character exactly what she likes? If Yang Ming really stepped on two boats, liking the rich and hating the poor, Hua Xiaoyue would not be able to like Yang Ming at all.
