566 [Artist Federation]

In a dressing room of Wang's Film Company, two professional makeup artists are busy around actress Lu Yichan.

Glue, paint, plaster, tissue, gauze...... All kinds of props took turns on the stage, and soon a beautiful woman with a smooth face was bruised and swollen.

It's not about making a movie, it's about staging a big show to entertain the masses.

Soon, the makeup artist retreated, and Lu Yichan sat alone in front of the makeup table, wiping the "scars" on her forehead in front of the mirror, her eyes red as if she was about to shed tears. A photographer stands behind her and presses the shutter on the image in her mirror.

After taking a few photos of Gu Ying's self-pity, the "director" at the scene said: "OK, the next set of shots...... Oh, and it's the next set of photos. ”

After some preparation, Lu Yichan turned her head suddenly, looking at the camera lens with a panicked expression, and the frightened expression was immediately captured by the photographer.

Then, Lu Yichan used one hand to block her face, and the other hand reached out to block the camera lens.

After being busy for an hour, the "director" on the scene instructed the idlers to wait for them to leave, and then said to Lu Yichan: "Miss Lu, in the next month, you must not remove your makeup or go out." Every day, a makeup artist will go to your house to change your makeup, and the company near your home has also arranged a bodyguard, so you don't have to worry about your own safety. Remember to stay by the phone at all times and wait for the company's next move. ”

……

The next morning, Hu Yinmeng packed up and was about to go out to work and shoot a movie, and opened the door with a kun bag, but saw Li Ao standing outside the door with a rose in his hand.

"Why are you here?" Hu Yinmeng was pleasantly surprised.

Li Ao helped his glasses and showed a mature man's smile: "Didn't you say that there are not many scenes today?" I'll take you to the set, and we'll go to lunch together after filming. ”

In another time and space, Hu Yinmeng admired Li Ao's talent, and the two only knew each other for two or three months, and then got married in a flash. It took another two or three months for Hu Yinmeng to see through Li Ao's selfish and shameless behavior, and divorced in anger, and never married again.

It stands to reason that Hu Yinmeng and Li Ao should have gotten married last month, but because Hu Yinmeng in this time and space was in a hurry to shoot a drama of Wang's Pictures, the marriage between the two was delayed.

Hu Yinmeng took the rose, Li Ao reached over to take her hand, but Hu Yinmeng subconsciously avoided it.

This action made Li Ao speechless, and the two have known each other for a few months, and they initially made friends with literature. Because Hu Yinmeng was going to publish his own collection of essays, he asked him to revise it, and the two became acquainted with each other. They both admire each other's talents, and they actually crossed the stage of lovers and made a marriage contract directly.

But what made Li Aoudan hurt was that he hadn't even touched his fiancΓ©e's hand, let alone hugged and kissed. This beautiful star who is mixed in the entertainment industry is obviously more conservative than ordinary girls.

Li Ao was very personable, and with a relaxed smile, he covered up this embarrassment and said, "Take my car." ”

"You bought a car?" Hu Yinmeng didn't think about why Li Ao, who had been in prison for a few years and was average after coming out, had the money to buy a car.

"I just bought it the other day." Li Ao said and walked to the car outside the door, and helped Hu Yinmeng open the door very gentlemanly.

"Wait a minute." Hu Yinmeng took today's newspaper from the newspaper box and got into the car with a smile.

Hu Yinmeng subscribed to two newspapers, one was "Central Daily" and the other was "United Daily News".

As usual, the "Central Daily" is still the kind of big and inappropriate news it reports. Hu Yinmeng first scanned the guide, and found that there was nothing he was interested in, so he directly spread out the "United Daily News".

"Gangs are rampant in the entertainment industry, actress Lu Yichan is tragically disfigured"

The headlines on the front page grabbed Hu Yinmeng's attention, and there were two pictures on the front page.

As can be seen from the photo, Lu Yichan has a large bloody scar on her forehead, and her eye sockets and half of her face are swollen. If it weren't for the annotation under the photo that said that this was Lu Yichan, I am afraid that I would not be able to recognize it at first glance.

The news said that Lu Yichan was coerced and controlled by the Wenshan Gang because of her popularity, and her one million salary would be taken away by the gang for 800,000 yuan. Lu Yichan was unwilling to be coerced by the gang, and bravely and firmly refused the Wenshan Gang's commission a few days ago, but was retaliated against by the vicious gangsters. She had been beaten to the point of falling unconscious, and doctors said that the injuries on her face could cause a broken appearance.

The article does not stop there, and later lists several examples of celebrities being harassed and exploited by the gang, such as Xu Bu, who was forced to inject drugs by the gang. In the end, the article also swore that a certain movie was made by gang investment and pointed a gun at the actor's head.

In the end, the article rose to the entire entertainment industry and social level, saying that if we don't stop the occurrence of this kind of evil surname case and crack down on gang crime, whether it is artists or ordinary people, they will lose their sense of security. b. Entertainment and Taiwan. b. Society will be in turmoil.

"These underworlds are so arrogant!" Hu Yinmeng was terrified, especially the disfigurement photo of Lu Yichan with the above, which inevitably made her, who was also an actor, sad and sad.

Hearing what she said, Li Ao, who was driving, couldn't help but turn around and ask, "What's wrong?" ”

Hu Yinmeng talked about the content of the news, and Li Ao sneered when he heard it: "Taiwan." Bay is like this, the underworld elements are endless. What did Chiang Kai-shek start with? It was helped up by Qing. This political axe and gang are a nest of snakes and rats, can you expect the political axe to fight the gang? No way. ”

Hu Yinmeng then remembered that his fiancΓ© was a well-known critic writer, and said: "Why don't you write an article to appeal for it." ”

"Of course, this kind of injustice can't be ignored!" Li Ao sneered.

After Hu Yinmeng heard this, he immediately cast an admiring gaze on Li Ao.

……

Not only Li Ao, but also people who are a little more normal, after reading the report, are full of righteous indignation at the atrocities of the gang members.

"These bastards!" In the office of the general manager of China Television, Mei Changling slapped the table and scolded after reading the newspaper.

This old gentleman used to be a station. The boss of Bay China Film Company, who was later transferred to the general manager of China Television, has always attached great importance to the group of artists. A few years ago, Wang Yu and Ke Junxiong, two big stars, fought and used knives in the hotel, causing an extremely bad social impact.

Mei Changling stood up and initiated the stage. Eleven groups in the film and television industries in Taiwan and Hong Kong jointly revised and passed the "Self-Discipline Convention for Film and Television Personnel" and established a self-discipline council.

Mei Changling's purpose in launching the artist self-discipline movement is naturally from the overall situation of the entire entertainment industry, to avoid the ugly actions of individual artists from smearing the image of the entire artist group.

Now that the gang members are so arrogant that they directly ruin the artist's appearance, if it goes on for a long time, won't the entertainment industry be in a miasma and everyone will be in danger? How can Mei Changling sit idly by?

Mei Changling was angry, and the phone on the desk rang, he picked up the phone angrily and said, "Hey, I'm Mei Changling." ”

"Mr. Mei, I'm Xiao Wang, Wang Zijun." Wang Zijun's voice came from the phone.

After Mei Changling read the news, he was worried that he had no one to communicate with, and when he heard that it was Wang Zijun's call, he immediately asked: "Xiao Wang, have you read today's "United Daily News"? ”

Wang Zijun on the other end of the phone was full of smiles, why didn't he look at it? He orchestrated the entire story.

"I just found out about it, too." Wang Zijun said, "It's not just Lu Yichan, Zhou Run found that he was also detained by the Northwest Gang in Kaohsiung to make movies." ”

Because of the fear that the Northwest Gang would tear up the ticket, the article in "United Daily News" did not mention Chow Yun-fat. Wang Zijun added oil and vinegar to the words at this time, and Mei Changling was so angry that she trembled. Chow Yun-fat is an actor from Hong Kong, and he was forced by the gang to gamble and owe 100 million in gambling debts. b. Development?

Mei Changling said angrily: "Xiao Wang, this kind of crooked spirit must be killed!" ”

"Mr. Mei, I think so too." Wang Zijun said his thoughts, "I am going to set up a 'Performing Artists Association', and artists can become registered members of this association by paying a small entrance fee." This federation has an exclusive team of lawyers, who will protect all aspects of the artist's management from receiving the show to remuneration and rights protection......"

The "Performing Artists Association" mentioned by Wang Zijun is actually a variant of the actors' union, which is similar to the actors' union in Hollywood, USA. However, there are still some more businesses to ask for wages and save people, which are specifically aimed at Taiwan. The gangs of the bay illegally took a cut and forcibly kidnapped the actors.

The reason why it is called a federation and not a trade union is because the national political axe is somewhat sensitive to the word trade union to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Although Wang Zijun can defeat a Wenshan gang through the police station to make an example of chickens and monkeys, it is impossible to trouble the police back to the police, and if you want to solve the problem once and for all, you must have such an organization.

In addition, Wang Zijun can also use the organization of the Artists Federation to bring the stage. The group of artists in the bay is controlled by themselves. This artist association is not a charitable organization, and it has to pay money to join the association, and a small amount of membership fees every year, and artists will also have to take a cut through the federation in the future.

Of course, Wang Zijun can't do this alone, he must pull one on the stage. b. is a very influential figure in the entertainment industry, and this character can't compete with him for power.

Mei Changling is undoubtedly the best candidate, and this old man can get the stage if he initiates an artist self-discipline movement. Eleven film and television groups echo each other, and the great influence can be seen. Moreover, Mei Changling is old, and she can live for two or three years at most.

The two discussed it over the phone, basically setting the tone.

……

The article in the United Daily News was on the stage in a very short period of time. b. caused an uproar. The entertainment industry plus gangsters, this in itself is an extremely eye-catching topic, not to mention the famous movie stars Lu Yichan and Xu Bu.

Especially the fans of Xu Bu and Lu Yichan, when they learned that their idols were killed by the gang, they were filled with righteous indignation, so they almost organized a street march.

For a while, the Wenshan Gang was pointed out by thousands of people and became the street rats that everyone shouted and beaten, and the most speechless thing was that the Wenshan Gang was unable to defend itself. Could it be that he didn't ruin Lu Yichan's appearance? Who believes!

The next day, Mr. James Soong, director of the Information Bureau, held an emergency meeting, faced the cameras of several TV stations, and scolded the bad gangs with righteous words, saying that he would cooperate with the Taipei City Police Department to launch an operation to rescue the artists from the dire situation, which won a lot of praise.

Wang Zijun also quickly held a press conference, saying that he and Lu Yichan were artists of his own company, and he would not let it go, and at the same time strongly protested against the gang's oppression and cruelty to artists. He called on artists to be self-reliant and set up a joint organization of artists, and all artists who join this organization will be protected by the organization.

The general manager of China Television first stood up to support this idea, and then Ming Ji, the general manager of China Film Company, and Ming Ji, the boss of the First Film Company, also expressed their support.
