Chapter 548: Kidnapping by Public Opinion
This press conference directly slapped countless media in the face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Yesterday, it was still reported, speculating that Mecca would not leave Donglong International! As a result, today people directly developed the conference and established the New Art City Film Company.
And Wu Cheng's 'congratulatory gift' made all the entertainment notes present a little confused.
What is the situation? Is this kind of behavior something that the young man who used to suffer nothing at all, or even have some retribution, could do?
This is being dug up by someone! How can you be so open-minded?
However, if you don't understand it, I have to admit that Wu Cheng's hand does have a sense of magnanimity, and even Lei Jiekun, who disagrees with it in his heart, has to show a grateful look on his face, at least he has to do a full set of plays!
In the film industry, although he is old, he can only be regarded as a newcomer, and his predecessors have sent congratulatory gifts to encourage you, can you still show people a face?
In front of everyone, he had to say a few words for Wu Chengmei.
For example, Yu Ji asked: "May I ask Boss Lei, when the new art city was established, Wu Cheng and Wu Dong asked people to send flower baskets to congratulate them, what do you think of this?
Faced with such a problem, many Yu Ji couldn't help but look at that person like an idiot, but that Yu Ji didn't change his face, and his face was really thick.
"Hahaha......" Lei Jiekun couldn't help laughing and said, "As a newcomer who has just joined the entertainment industry, I am just a newcomer. The company doesn't even have a movie that it invested in shooting, what do you think Donglong International will be afraid of us?"
That Yu Ji didn't give up, but said with a straight face: "The Golden Princess Cinema Line is just established, and it will definitely steal part of the source of the Feilong Cinema Line, it stands to reason that they should hate you, but now that they are sending a flower basket, doesn't Boss Lei think there is a problem here?"
"What's the problem?" Boss Lei replied directly.
"......" As a result, the entertainer was stunned.
Seeing that Yu Ji was stunned, Boss Lei changed into a serious look and said: "Young man, be a man and do things, don't think so dirty, and don't think too badly about people's hearts." As you said, the establishment of the Golden Princess Cinema Line will indeed steal some of the film sources that originally belonged to the Feilong Cinema Line. But how many films are produced every year by so many film companies in Xiangjiang, and how many films are not released for release? Have you ever known about these?"
Seeing that Yu Ji finally showed a hint of surprise, Boss Lei took advantage of the victory to chase after him: "You don't understand, but I understand, Wu Cheng and Wu Dong also understand, Wu Dong is a very good, very amazing young man, he is open-minded, he doesn't care about me, an old man who suddenly came to grab a job with him, and also sent a flower basket to encourage us, such a magnanimous and elegant and humble noble behavior, why did it change in your eyes?"
The ridicule of the entertainer caused many people to gloat over him, but no one ran out to play against him, but turned to Mecca.
"Director Mai, yesterday there were still people who saw you and Wu Dong talking happily, but today you suddenly became the general manager of Xinyi City, does Wu Dong know about this? Or is this just your private behavior? In this way, is it considered a betrayal? Aren't you afraid that Donglong International will suppress your new company? I believe that Donglong International still has this ability. ā
Hearing this question, Mecca's face turned a little green, coming from Donglong International, he was most worried about others asking him such a question. Although Wu Cheng didn't blame him for this incident, in fact, this was really a betrayal. Who wouldn't be angry about being scolded by a monk in front of a monk in front of him? However, in front of so many people, he couldn't lose his temper and curse people.
Therefore, whoever you change it to will not look good.
Before Mecca could speak, Lei Jiekun, who saw that his face was not very good, laughed again, looked very emotional, and said: "Here, I have to thank Wu Dong again, it is his deep understanding of righteousness that can invite director Mecca to be the general manager of our new art city." ā
When Mecca heard Lei Jiekun say this, she also suppressed the anger in her heart, and said, "Here, I really want to thank Wu Dong. As he spoke, he stood up and bowed forward. It doesn't matter if he's putting on a show or not, but with this attitude, it's still very desirable.
After sitting down, he continued: "I told Wu Dong about this yesterday, Wu Dong is a very enlightened person, he understands me, and he also understands the current Xiangjiang movie ......"
Seeing that someone wanted to ask a question when he heard this, Mai Guangtou raised his head directly, stopped him, and continued: "I know, what do you want to ask, then, please listen to me." I don't know if you have paid attention to the genre of Xiangjiang movies now, if you haven't paid attention, then you can think about it now, how many types of Xiangjiang movies are there? ā
Hearing this, many entertainment reporters were silent, not really thinking about it, but waiting for Mai's bald head to be exposed!
"You might think I'm being alarmist...... In fact, when we heard Wu Dong say this, we also felt that he was alarmist, Xiangjiang movies are so prosperous, the number of movies made every year is increasing, the film market in Southeast Asia is so prosperous, and most of them are our Xiangjiang films, how can the competitiveness of Xiangjiang films not be strong?"
Many people nodded, but no one jumped out to interrupt him.
Mai Guangtou touched his big bald head and continued: "We thought so at the beginning, but he gave us an example, which is the Shaw Brothers movie. Everyone basically grew up watching Shaw Brothers movies, but have you noticed that there are more Shaw Brothers movies, or their martial arts films. So, the question is, why?"
"Because martial arts films have a small investment, an audience base, low risk, short cycle, and quick results...... That's why they keep shooting this genre, and they don't worry about losing money anyway. However, what about the result?"
Many people think that if Shao Daheng hears this, he will probably vomit blood!
Unexpectedly, in Wu Cheng's eyes, Shaw Brothers was actually such an image.
"Wu Dong is a filmmaker with great ambitions, and he is also a filmmaker who deserves my respect. Because of many things, we people don't see it, but he sees it. ā
Mai Guangtou spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, if it was usual, this action would be on him, everyone would think it was funny, but now, it doesn't seem to feel this way.
He continued: "We sat down together to discuss, and at that time, there were still many film directors present, such as director Hung Jinbao, director Huang Baiming, director Li Xianxian, and so on. Wu Dong feels that if Xiangjiang Movies wants to survive for a long time, it is absolutely impossible to blindly follow the trend......"
When he said this, Lei Jiekun, who was sitting on the side, frowned slightly, feeling that he couldn't let this guy continue to talk anymore, this was no longer helping Wu Cheng say good things, but digging a hole for themselves. Because his idea is to follow the trend first and ensure that his first investment will not be lost. But now that Mai Guangtou said this, what will be the first movie to be made in the future? Once there is a reality of following the trend, will the new art city not be laughed to death?
But the problem now is that the curiosity of those entertainers has all been mobilized, and if he jumps out at this time to stop Mai Guangtou from continuing, the result may be even worse.
So, he kept giving Mecca a look, but Mai didn't see it.
Lei Jiekun has Lei Jiekun's thoughts, but Mai Bald naturally has his own ideas. There were some things he had to say before he could 'kidnap' Lei Jiekun. Otherwise, wouldn't it be Lei Jiekun who said that he wanted to shoot any drama in the future, and what kind of drama would he have to film?
He 'defected' from Donglong International, and when the time comes, will he be able to be cheeky and continue to go back? He has only one way to go now, and that is to keep up with Lei Jiekun's pace.
However, the question is, if he follows Lei Jiekun closely, will he still have autonomy in the future?
Therefore, at this time, he can only use this way to set up the new art city first, and use public opinion to kidnap Lei Jiekun, lest Lei Jiekun turn around and ask him to make follow-up films.
Although Mak is a little forgetful, he is definitely not a fool.
Therefore, he showed a worried look on his face and said: "Wu Dong is not only a very open-minded person, but also a person with a very far-reaching vision. He saw the worrying prospects of Hong Kong films, so he encouraged all directors to try different types of films, such as the psychedelic kung fu films made by director Hung Jinbao, the police films made by director Li Xianxing, and the campus comedy films made by director Wong Pak Ming......"
"He even encouraged everyone to compete, of course, healthy competition. Therefore, if you think that Wu Dong will embarrass me at this time, it is wrong! Not only did he not embarrass me, but he also encouraged me to make more contributions to Xiangjiang's films. For this, I am very grateful, I thank him, it was he who made me famous overnight, it was he who made people feel the joy of success, and it was he who made me feel that as a filmmaker, in addition to making money, we have to do what we can for our own Hong Kong films......"
After listening to Mai Guangtou's words, all the entertainment reporters were silent for a long time, as if they didn't expect that Wu Cheng, who was so young, would think so far-reaching, and it seemed to be a little unreal.
After a long time, someone stood up and continued to ask: "Director Mai, since you have joined Xinyicheng, then, if Donglong International wants to shoot the sequel to "Best Partner", will you still join? Or will the sequel to "Best Partner" change the starring role when the time comes?" )
