Because the Korean movie "My Sassy Girlfriend" directed by Xu Cun has caused a savage storm, the Japanese movie "Love Letter", also directed by Xu Cun, has been widely concerned before it has been released, which in turn led to the fact that "Love Letter" has achieved an average first-day attendance rate of 97% and a first-day box office result of 2.72 million in Xiangjiang City once it was released, and this is nothing, the real perverted results of "Love Letter" come from Japan - "Love Letter" The box office in Japan on the first day was as high as 170 million yen (equivalent to more than 1.3 million US dollars), according to the current trend, even if the final box office of "Love Letter" does not reach 10 billion yen, it will be at least 8 billion yen, if you also include the currency appreciation, "Love Letter" is likely to become the overall champion of the Japanese box office!

"Love Letter" is not only no worse than "My Sassy Girlfriend", but its reputation is not below "My Sassy Girlfriend" at all, in the eyes of those filmmakers and film critics who pay attention to art, "Love Letter" that focuses on art is even above "My Sassy Girlfriend" that focuses on business!

"Undoubtedly, "Love Letter" is the best movie I have seen in recent years, even if it is compared to the good movie "My Sassy Girlfriend" that I watched two days ago. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info, however, what I want to talk about today is not "Love Letter", let alone "My Sassy Girlfriend", but Mr. Xu Cunxu, the editor and director of "Love Letter" and "My Sassy Girlfriend".

The author's acquaintance with Mr. Xu began in 1979, and a youth comedy "Happy Ghost" with no connotation made the author notice Mr. Xu for the first time.

To be honest, although "Happy Ghost" achieved good results at the time, the author didn't think Mr. Xu was great at that time, and thought that he just found the right movie path that the audience liked.

But later "Mr. Zombie", "Lucky Star Gaozhao", and "Royal Senior Sister" subverted the author's perception of Mr. Xu again and again.

And the speed at which Mr. Xu is moving forward is even beyond the author's imagination -- in 1981, when the author was expecting Mr. Xu to make any good Chinese-language movies, Mr. Xu actually conquered Hollywood and shot a film "ET" in Hollywood, which is still the world's top box office to this day.

Since then, Mr. Xu has successively filmed "Sword and Horse", "Home Alone", "Ghost Love", "God of Gamblers", "The True Color of Heroes", "Back to the Future", "Tang Bohu Lights Xiangjiang" and other well-received and popular movies, and won the title of "the world's No. 1 director".

In this regard, the author has been silent, because the author thinks that Mr. Xu at that time was very powerful, but it is actually a bit too much to call Mr. Xu 'the world's No. 1 director'.

It wasn't until the appearance of "The Matrix" that the author felt that Mr. Xu had some of the appearance of "The World's No. 1 Director", but at that time the author still did not speak.

Now, Mr. Xu has made two good movies with local characteristics at the same time, "Love Letter" and "My Sassy Girlfriend", and the author can't help but shout: "Mr. Xu, your status as the world's No. 1 director is well deserved!"

The author is very fortunate to know Mr. Xu and witnessed Mr. Xu's film path!

But-

People are rarely satisfied, and the author is not exempt from vulgarity.

The author wants to say to Mr. Xu: "Mr. Xu, you have enough money, come back, go back to the film industry to continue your greatness, continue your glory, and return to our audience who really like you!"

-- Chen Bosen, Film Fortnightly.

As soon as Chen Bosen's article came out, Xu Cun's reputation suddenly reached a new high!

But-

At the same time, the article has led to a lot of trouble.

One of them is that "which is better" or "My Sassy Girlfriend" has caused a months-long debate - both films have the support of many die-hard fans, and most of them are female fans, including famous female writers such as Yishu, Lin Yanni and Qiong Shao.

In addition, there is also a trouble that a group of boring people actually launched the activity of 'inviting Mr. Xu back to the film industry', and the momentum is quite huge.

Later, Xu Cun, who really didn't want to attract attention because of this kind of thing, asked Li Cheng to publish a sentence "I have never left!" in all the newspapers and magazines owned by DreamWorks Newspapers, and asked Li to greet his newspaper peers and ask them to stop publishing relevant reports.

Some people may ask, can Li Cheng, a seventeen-year-old girl who has only been in the industry for a long time, suppress the relevant reports by greeting her peers?

The answer is...... Yes, very much!

Just when "Love Letter" and "My Sassy Girlfriend" were being screened in Asia, Li Chong performed a feat that made his colleagues in the newspaper industry dumbfounded - Li Chong actually acquired "Cheng Pao", "Sin Chew Daily", "Sing Tao Daily", "Sing Tao Evening News", "English Standard", and "New Modern Pictorial" in a very short period of time, becoming a new generation of "newspaper queen"!

This result is certainly shocking to people in the newspaper industry, but it is nothing compared to the process!

Li Cheng first bought the "Cheng Pao", which is currently only worth more than 700 million Hong Kong dollars, from He Wenfa and his son at an ultra-high price of 900 million Hong Kong dollars, and kept it secret.

Immediately afterwards, with the help of Huang Yuwolf, Li Cheng bought a large part of the shares of Sing Tao Press Group and Paramount Group from them at a price that the other shareholders of the two companies except Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan could not refuse.

At the same time, Li Cheng also borrowed two acquisition teams from Xu Cun to sweep the shares of Sing Tao Press Group and Paramount Group on the stock market.

By the time Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan realized that their company was being acquired, Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan had already lost their controlling stakes in the Sing Tao Press Group and Paramount Group - in fact, Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan had already lost by this point.

But-

Where are Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan people who admit defeat so easily?

Knowing that they had lost the controlling stake in their respective companies, Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan immediately used the contacts they had accumulated in the newspaper industry for many years to find several media outlets to launch a public opinion offensive, saying that Li Cheng was acting domineering and hostilely buying out his peers for many years, trying to use this method to fight to the death!

But as soon as Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan launched a public opinion offensive, Li Cang's side showed his other identity - the general director of Yulang International.

Then, Li Cheng used the newspapers and magazines under his control, with the cooperation of Phoenix Channel and TVB, to shake out all the things about how Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan maliciously acquired Yulang International, and claimed that he was not an eye for an eye or a tooth for a tooth.

At this point, the matter is actually a confused account - it is not clear who made the hostile takeover first, at least outsiders can't understand it.

At this time, Li Cheng said again, "DreamWorks Newspaper will never be too big!" -- There are many foxes in the newspaper industry for thousands of years, and this warning released by Li Cheng can naturally be interpreted by people, especially those concerned: "If any of you dare to help Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan again, my aunt and grandmother will buy your newspapers and magazines together!"

Xu Cun is so rich, so rich that even if he buys the entire Xiangjiang newspaper industry, it will not be effortless!

Therefore, no one did not believe Li Chong's warning.

In addition, Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan have been defeated.

Moreover, smart people can see that with Xu Cun's support, Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan, who are at the feet of Li Cheng, will never have a chance to turn over.

Therefore, after Li Cheng's warning was released, most of the media who helped Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan fight began to prevaricate Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan for various reasons.

Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan are both veterans who have been in the newspaper industry for many years, how can they not know that their general trend has gone?

Disheartened, Zheng Jinghan transferred all his newspaper properties such as "New Modern Pictorial" to Li Cheng, and then left the newspaper industry completely with the Paramount Group, which had been cut off.

Hu Xian talked to Li Cheng four times, and found many intermediaries, including Hong Kong Governor Wei Yixin, to talk to Xu Cun behind Li Zi.

But the result was: Li Cheng not only did not have the slightest intention of letting go, but also used the methods of issuing additional shares, sweeping stocks in the stock market, and injecting capital into Sing Tao Press Group to dilute the equity of Sing Tao Press Group in Hu Xian's hands. As for Xu Cun, during this time, he has always been moving in Japan and South Korea, and he has not given Wei Yixin and others a chance to see him at all.

After struggling for more than a month, Hu Xiancai and Li Chong reached a final agreement - Hu Xian sold all the shares of their Hu family's Sing Tao Newspaper Group to DreamWorks Newspapers for 600 million Hong Kong dollars, after which Hu Xian returned to Singapore to create a newspaper called Headline Daily.

At this point, this battle can be regarded as a complete end.

In this battle, Li Cheng not only made people in the newspaper industry remember her name, but also left an image of a domineering female president in the newspaper industry -- Hu Xian and Zheng Jinghan, especially Hu Xian, who is rich and has a background, such a predecessor who has been amazed in the newspaper industry for decades, was completely crushed by Li Cheng without even having a chance to fight back in front of Li Cheng, how can this not let people in the newspaper industry remember Li Cheng, how can they not leave an image of a domineering female president in the newspaper industry?

As a result, in the newspaper industry, especially in the Xiangjiang newspaper industry, Li Cheng has become a ruthless person that no one wants to provoke and no one dares to provoke.

Therefore, when Li Cheng greeted his peers, the voices shouting "Please return to the film industry" immediately became smaller, and it didn't take long for them to disappear completely.
