Chapter 1063 - Handle
Soon after entering November, Zhang Ran's role was completely completed. Zhang Ran posted a photo of himself and Chen Zhanzhan on Weibo, saying that his role has been completed, and it is time for Lin Yun to play.
The movie "Full-Band Blocking Interference" has three lines, Zhuang Yu on the Wannian Yandi, Lin Yun on the ground, and the commander of the 112th Division. The three threads are narrated separately, but they are interspersed with each other in a complete plot, and the entire war is completely outlined from three different angles.
Since Zhang Ran was going to start preparing for Zhang Chunru's movie at the end of the year, Zhang Ran's scene was put at the forefront. According to the original plan, after Zhang Ran's scene was filmed, Cheng Long's scene would be filmed. However, because Cheng Long's state did not meet the requirements of the crew, he was sent to the army for training, so after filming Zhang Ran's scene, the crew began to focus on filming Lin Yun's scene.
After Lin Yun's film was filmed for half a month, the crew organized a large-scale media visit on the set of the war drama on the outskirts of Lin'an, and dozens of media from all over the country were invited to attend. The media were all stunned when they arrived at the scene, and there were almost a hundred tanks on the entire set. The military region directly transferred a tank regiment to assist in the shooting. The large number of soldiers and tanks, combined with the trenches and ruins of houses on the site, makes it feel as if you have actually arrived on the battlefield.
In an interview with reporters, Zhang Ran was full of praise for Chen Zhanzhan's performance, and directly said that she was one of the best actresses in China and played the role of Lin Yun alive. Zhang Ran is not exaggerating, he really thinks so.
Lin Yun is somewhat similar to Emily in "Future Apocalypse", she was originally a beautiful and gentle, but feminine and squeamish girl, but the war changed everything, turning her into a strong warrior, and finally chose to die with the enemy. The contrast between the front and back of Lin Yun's role is relatively large, and it is not easy to perform it, but Chen Zhanzhan perfectly presents this contrast of the role.
Zhang Ran is particularly pleased with this, when filming "Tangshan Earthquake" eight years ago, Chen Zhanzhan could only play tricks, and her acting skills were very jerky; eight years have passed, and now she has become a very mature actor, and she is also well-known in the drama circle, and she is still full of enthusiasm for acting. Zhang Ran is very glad for Wu Ershan, it is too correct to choose Chen Zhanzhan to play this role, and Lin Yun played by Chen Zhanzhan will definitely become a highlight of the whole movie.
However, Chen Zhanzhan quietly complained to Zhang Ran that acting in a movie is too boring, a one-minute scene can give fifteen or sixteen shots from different angles, and the whole performance is fragmented;
Zhang Ran smiled when he heard this, only an actor who really loves acting would say such a thing. In fact, this is also the biggest difference between movies and dramas, movies are the art of the director, and the director dominates everything, while the drama is the art of the actors, and the actors control everything when they go on stage. Because of this, many well-known actors would rather give up their lucrative remuneration and act in dramas that are not very profitable.
The time soon entered December, and Chen Zhanzhan's play also came to an end. Today's filming is a scene of Lin Yun's fierce battle with the enemy. The attack of the AI army was suppressed after the Chinese army in the Beijing-Tianjin theater of operations implemented electromagnetic interference. However, the AI army soon fought back, and they began to target the "flood" that carried out electromagnetic interference. On the front line in Langfang, an AI team discovered the location of the "flood" controlled by Lin Yun. Due to the huge electromagnetic emission of the "flood", the remote control of it could only be through the fiber optic cable, which allowed the enemy to follow the direction of the fiber optic cable to find a small abandoned isolated warehouse where Lin Yun was. So, the AI team launched an attack on Lin Yun and them.
All the comrades-in-arms were killed, and only Lin Yun was still alive. Lin Yun looked at the advancing AI soldiers, his eyes flashed with determination, without the slightest fear. She ignored the AI soldier's shouts and kept shooting at the AI soldier with her rifle. When Lin Yun changed the magazine, the sandbag in front of her crawled with a loud sound, and something quickly drilled through it; then, as if she had been pushed by something, her body retreated slightly, and then a stream of red blood flowed down from the right side of her body.
"Stop!" Wu Ershan shouted to stop, then stood up and said to Chen Zhanzhan, "Zhan Zhan, you are moving a little wider!" After speaking, he turned his head to look at Zhang Ran and asked, "Teacher Zhang, what do you think?"
Zhang Ran nodded slightly and said, "You're right!"
At this moment, Cao Wenbin, head of the public relations department of Century Peak, walked into the command center. He came straight to Zhang Ran's side and said in a low voice: "Mr. Zhang, I have something very important to report to you." ”
Zhang Ran was stunned, he knew that something big should have happened, otherwise Cao Wenbin wouldn't have come over to report in person, but this was not the place to talk, he immediately said: "Let's go out and talk!"
Zhang Ran took Cao Wenbin out of the filming area and boarded the RV arranged for him by the crew. He locked the door, beckoned Cao Wenbin to sit down, and asked, "What happened?"
Cao Wenbin said with a solemn expression: "More than two months ago, you asked us to check Shishang Culture and Jinding Holdings, and now the whole thing is clearer. On the surface, Jinding Holdings is the company of the Fan brothers, but in fact, the two of them are just white gloves for others. The one who really controls the company behind the scenes is Wang Jianlin's son Wang Sichong. ”
Zhang Ran heard that Wang Sichong was controlling everything behind the scenes, and nodded slightly, now all kinds of unreasonableness on Jinding Holdings can be explained, he frowned and said, "What is his real purpose?"
Cao Wenbin said softly: "In the past year, Huang Shengyi and Yang Fan have taken on a lot of dramas, and in the process of taking over the scenes, they signed yin and yang contracts with the producers, and the companies that invested in these dramas were all money laundering companies. ”
Zhang Ran's face changed slightly when he heard this: "You mean that Wang Sichong used them as a money laundering tool?"
It is an open secret that there is a lot of capital flowing in the domestic film industry for the purpose of money laundering. These capitals, in fact, don't care about what films they invest in, what they care about is how to invest the money and then get it back in a unique way.
The film and television industry is a very difficult and risky field to price. Sometimes, a movie becomes popular inexplicably, and the cost of one or two hundred million can reach 3 billion at the box office. Sometimes, a big production with a cost of hundreds of millions of dollars is all lost. It is precisely because the film and television industry is too variable and there is too much room for maneuvering, which provides the possibility of money laundering.
At present, China only needs to set up a number of shell film and television production companies, invest in a film and television drama, and then launder a large amount of black money from compradors, corrupt officials, and the underworld in the name of production fees and sky-high salaries of celebrities. For example, in a costume drama, designing a scene that blows up a city tower, it costs 5 million to build this kind of city tower, and you can take 10 million in material costs, anyway, the city tower has been blown up, and there is no proof of death. Another example is to ask an actor to budget 100 million yuan, make two contracts, one 100 million is taxed to the actor, and the other 10 million is likely to be the actor's actual income.
Many times, a movie is so bad that it can't hold up the wall, and the box office is also a failure, but for investors, they are very satisfied, because the purpose of money laundering has been achieved, which is also one of the important reasons why bad movies are currently in the domestic film and television industry.
Cao Wenbin said with a solemn expression: "Not only that, but we also found out that Zhang Jingchu's brother Zhang Jingyu also holds shares in Shishang Culture, but Shishang Culture has been kept secret, and we found it after breaking Fan Yongzhong's email." Speaking of this, Cao Wenbin took out a document and put it in front of Zhang Ran: "This is the email we found." ”
Among the domestic enterprises, there are many family businesses, and in the eyes of many bosses, relatives are the most trustworthy. But Zhang Ran is not such a person, in his opinion, arranging relatives to enter the company is to add chaos to the company's management. If you arrange your relatives in the company, the rest of the company will not dare to take care of it at all, and it will only bring chaos to the management of the company. Therefore, Zhang Ran resolutely does not let any of his relatives enter the company, regardless of whether he has the ability or not, he is in principle that I can give you money and investment, but there is no need to talk about entering the peak of the century.
Zhang Ran did the same for Zhang Jingchu's brother Zhang Jingyu, who gave Zhang Jingyu 500 million yuan to do business. After Zhang Jingyu got the money, he opened a film and television company in the magic capital, mainly engaged in film and television investment. With the peak of the century, and the care of Zhang Ran's friends in the film and television industry, Zhang Jingyu has made a lot of money, and his life is quite nourishing.
Zhang Ran never dreamed that Zhang Jingyu would be mixed with Wan Da, so he took the document and slowly flipped it over. The document is an email between Zhang Jingyu and Fan Yongzhong, mainly to discuss business matters. It can be seen from the email that Zhang Jingyu should not know the true identity of the other party, nor the purpose of the other party, but just regard the other party as a very profitable partner. However, it can also be seen from the email that Zhang Jingyu is a little dissatisfied with Zhang Ran, and feels that Zhang Ran is not interesting enough to make a lot of money by himself.
After reading the document, Zhang Ran completely understood what was going on. Shishang Culture and Jinding Holdings are a chess piece buried by Wanda a few years ago, the purpose is not to make money, let alone launder money, but to hold Zhang Ran's students and relatives as handles. Zhang Jingyu and Zhang Ran's more than a dozen students are all involved in yin-yang contracts and money laundering, and if they are found out, they may face jail time. When the war between the peak of the century and Wanda reaches a critical moment, they can use this to threaten Zhang Ran!
After figuring out the opponent's purpose, Zhang Ran smiled gloomily: "Originally, I just planned to drive you out of Wanda, but now I want to crush you to powder and make you regret everything you did!"
Cao Wenbin was frightened by Zhang Ran's tone, felt a chill down his spine, and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Zhang, what should I do now?"
In the past two years, Wanda has been forced into a corner by the peak of the century, not only the film and television sector has continued to lose money, but even Wanda commercial real estate has also been greatly impacted. In addition, Wanda has made many large acquisitions in recent years and bought a bunch of famous paintings, and Wanda has a very high debt. Now Zhang Ran has the cards in his hand, which is enough to defeat Wan Da. However, Zhang Ran was not in a hurry, because Wanda spun off Wanda Real Estate and prepared to go public in late December this year.
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Ran and Century Summit should have sniped Wanda to go public at this time and not let Wanda raise funds, but Zhang Ran and they didn't do it. Because among the shareholders of Wanda, there are many people with great backgrounds. These people are waiting for Wanda to go public and make a big profit. If Zhang Ran launches an attack now, causing Wanda to be unable to go public, it will be equivalent to cutting off the financial route of these people. Resolutely wealthy, such as killing parents. These people's financial routes are cut off, and they must hate Zhang Ran to death. Therefore, Zhang Ran and Century Peak did not launch the final offensive, but waited for Wanda to go public, waiting for these people to get rid of the stocks in their hands.
The day when the stocks in the hands of these people are sold is the time when the peak of the century and Wanda are decisive. In two weeks, Wanda will be listed, and those people will soon sell their shares, leaving little time for Vanda.
Zhang Ran has no plans to change the plan now, after all, Wanda will be listed in two weeks, and it will take too long to wait. However, not playing Wanda Real Estate for the time being does not mean that Wanda Film and Television will not be played. He exhaled softly and said, "It's time to settle the grievances with Wanda, let's take the "One Step Away" sacrificial flag first!"
