Chapter 322: Substitution
"As of 9:40 this morning, the 90-minute explosion incident finally came to an end, according to Baidu's statistics, the incident affected nearly 100 post bars, covering film and television dramas, stars, games, sports, life and other aspects, more than one million people online at the same time, and eventually led to the closure of more than 30 well-known post bars!"
"Because it was clearly shown in the video that broke out on the Internet before, when Liu Chengjun said the insulting words, the 6 actors, including Wang Lihong, did not react, which caused the dissatisfaction of many netizens, so after the explosion ended, the post bar of these 6 actors was also affected, and they all fell in less than 10 minutes!"
At that time, there were a total of 9 actors who participated in the audition, including Liu Dong, except for Liu Dong and Liu Chengjun, Huang Xiaoming did not appear in the video because of the shooting angle.
In the face of the anger of netizens, two actors published a sincere apology letter in Tieba and temporarily closed Tieba.
The remaining four actors did not react, and they were finally blown up by angry netizens.
Among them is Wang Lihong!
......
"That's what you're planning?" Liu Dong asked Li Manyu through the computer screen.
"Now you have a chance, it depends on whether Berner continues to choose to believe in Wang Lihong's appeal, or he doesn't want to give netizens a reason to attack!" Li Manyu said with a smile.
Dead friends are not poor people!
Liu Dong didn't feel the slightest guilt about this, he believed that if he changed anyone, he would not let go in the face of opportunities.
After all, they are all competitors!
The news spread so quickly before, and there may not have been a few people who reported to reporters, everyone had the same mind, grasping the weakness of the opponent and stepping on it to death.
"Let's hope Berner will change his mind!"
Liu Dong can't say for sure, after all, Cheng Long's film is definitely going to compete for the Chinese New Year, and now the crew has not prepared yet, so it is impossible this year.
By the time it was apparently released in December, more than a year during that period was enough to minimize the impact of this matter.
"If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't do it!" Li Manyu said confidently, full of confidence.
"From '99's "Glass Bottle" to the present, Cheng Long has not appeared in the Lunar New Year file for nearly 10 years, this time he will definitely be cautious, otherwise he will not choose Wang Lihong to increase the chances of winning!" Li Manyu explained with a smile.
Liu Dong thought that this was really the case, when Cheng Long was mentioned, everyone would think of kung fu comedy, which was naturally very suitable for being released in the Chinese New Year.
But in the past few years, whether it is "New Police Story", "Baby Project", "Mythology", or even this year's "King of Kung Fu", they have not participated in the competition for the Chinese New Year.
And "The King of Kung Fu" has now been fully painted in China, the two superstars, plus Li Binbin, one of the four major flowers, and Liu Yifei, the fairy sister, such a luxurious lineup only got 170 million box office in China, which is a big surprise.
With a total investment of up to 60 million meters, in exchange for a mainland box office of 170 million yuan, Huayi's good mood of making a big profit on "Assembly" was instantly clouded.
Originally, Huayi was very confident in this movie, and nearly half of the 60 million yuan was funded.
Fortunately, the North American box office is still passable, with two signboards of Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, Hua Yi directly chose to share.
The North American box office of 52 million meters can be divided into more than 20 million points, and the mainland can be divided into nearly 10 million meters, plus the distribution rights in Southeast Asia and Europe, as well as audio and video copyrights, etc.
The loss is not too ruthless, and I didn't put all the proceeds of "The Assembly" into it!
Although most of the reason for the box office failure is that the film's actor is an unknown crooked nut, Cheng Long must also re-examine his appeal in the mainland.
In this case, Liu Dong's opportunities have greatly increased.
......
In a villa area in Beijing, Wang Lihong in Liu Dong's mouth was facing his agent Cao Jiaying with a depressed face.
"It's a disaster, now my post bar has also exploded!"
Wang Lihong has been watching the excitement for the past few days, and he also took the time to post a few posts anonymously.
I didn't expect to be implicated in the future, looking at the scolding on the Internet, I felt like crying without tears.
Agent Cao Jiaying shook her head, "Do you really think this is a disaster?"
"How?"
"This is obviously designed, you look at the actors who auditioned together, even if the three who were blown up, the total number of scolding is not as much as you!" Cao Jiaying said with a heavy face.
"You're saying someone framed me?"
Wang Lihong was not stupid, and reacted immediately, with an angry face.
Cao Jiaying nodded, "It is very likely that I have studied Liu Dong's experience in entering the industry, and every film is full of hype, and the means to get the role are very disgraceful......"
As soon as Cao Jiaying finished speaking, Wang Lihong immediately shouted angrily, "It must be him, me for the role of "Big Soldier"!"
"So what should we do, should we fight back?"
"No!"
Cao Jiaying immediately denied, "This Liu Dong is ruthless, he leaves no room for things, and the team behind him is also very difficult, this time he actually gathered people to suppress all Korean fans, this kind of person is better to provoke less, no matter what the final result is, it will not be good for us!"
"Then forget it?" Wang Lihong was a little unwilling.
"Lihong, you have to remember your identity, you can't fight hard with that kind of person, he is barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, but you are the new Four Heavenly Kings, and if you deal with him, you will only lose your identity!" Cao Jiaying persuaded.
The so-called status is just Cao Jiaying's coaxing of Wang Lihong, if he is really the king, like Andy Lau, who still dares to make small moves behind his back?
It's really a sensitive matter this time, but Wang Lihong is a national of the United States, and he has been developing in Treasure Island.
This identity, coupled with what is happening now, is too easy to make a fuss.
......
Bernard Group, production directors Zheng Ye and Cheng Long, and Ding Sheng, director of "Big Soldiers", gathered in a conference room.
The three of them listened to the statistics reported by the underground employees, and their faces became more and more ugly.
"Alright, you go to work!"
Zheng Ye waved his hand, and after the employees went out, he said with a serious face, "You also know the current situation, according to the data we have obtained from several professional data statistics companies, in various mainstream media and forums, nearly half of the netizens are criticizing him!"
"Then Mr. Zheng, what do you mean?" Cheng Long said with a frown.
"By the time the movie is released, this matter should have subsided long ago, there is not much difference between public and public relations, it still depends on what Ah Long and Director Ding mean!"
As an investor, Cheng Long is qualified to ask about the candidates for actors, not to mention that this movie relies on his personal appeal.
Seeing Zheng Ye kick the ball back to himself, Cheng Long weighed it and finally made a decision.
"I'm proposing a substitution, let's pick a time to continue the audition!"
"Then in 3 days, I will inform everyone!" Zheng Ye nodded.
They are all upper-level figures in the entertainment industry, and they are very decisive in their work, and they will change when they say they will change.
Who is replaced, neither of them said it clearly, but at this time there is no other choice except Liu Dong and Huang Xiaoming.
Compared with Huang Xiaoming, Liu Dong, who is now popular, is obviously the most suitable candidate, and his experience on the big screen is much stronger than Huang Xiaoming.
As for Liu Dong's framing of Wang Lihong, neither of them took it seriously.
are all old people who have been in the entertainment industry for many years, and this kind of thing is a little bigger than trivial things for them, and there is no problem of character or despicability.
From beginning to end, Zheng Ye and Cheng Long were discussing, and Ding Sheng, as a director, listened from the sidelines and did not express his opinion.
He's a director, but he's just a director!
Jackie Chan's movie, he himself is the boss!
