Chapter 517: Investigation
"I really can't understand why the Gold Medal Group let Zhang Yimou's "The City Full of Golden Armor" be postponed, are Huaxia movies really not as good as Hollywood movies?"
When Xiao Gangcang accepted the invitation of a TV station, he said: "Zhang Yimou is also a top director in China, and his movies can be said to represent the top part of Chinese filmmakers." β
"If he avoids a fight, it means that Chinese films have succumbed to Hollywood blockbusters."
"If it's really not good for Chinese movies, then I have nothing to say, but in the past, Chinese movies flourished, and their performance in the local market was not weaker than Hollywood blockbusters.
After the show aired, it immediately caused a lot of repercussions, and many filmmakers stood up.
"In the past, Chinese movies were actually not weaker than Hollywood blockbusters, they certainly have their audience, but we also have our audience, I don't understand why Zhang Yimou would take his "City Full of Golden Armor" to avoid at this time, is this Zhang Yimou and his "City Full of Golden Armor" strength is not good? I don't think so, it's more likely that in order to curry favor with Hollywood film companies and make way for their own company's films, Zhang Yimou turned his head to the gold medal group, which is a pearl covered with dust, because they don't pay attention to this pearl at all. β
"Seriously, I'm disappointed, why should I avoid it? Director Zhang Yimou, as the leading director in the director's circle, has always carried the banner of fighting against Hollywood blockbusters. Now that he has suddenly given way, this change in style is simply incomprehensible. β
"I don't think Chinese movies are any worse than Hollywood movies. If you want to say that it is bad, it is also caused by too small investment, but in terms of storytelling, there are a lot of logical errors in Hollywood movies, I really don't know why Zhang Yimou's "The City is Full of Golden Armor" should be avoided. β
A large number of filmmakers suddenly appeared in the media's field of vision, loudly saying that domestic films are not inferior to Hollywood blockbusters. encouraged domestic films to oppose Hollywood films, and even some film critics spoke up.
"Hollywood movies are indeed gorgeous special effects, but when it comes to plot. You will find that the plot of Hollywood blockbusters is simply incomparable, and under the gorgeous special effects is pale content. β
"In the case of the movie "Spider-Man", Peter. Parker is such a superhero, and he is actually the same as ordinary people. And the first thing that comes to mind when making money is to play black boxing. And nothing else, you know, if there is such a superhero in reality, then he doesn't have to worry about money at all, even if he joins the government, it's better than playing black boxing, not to mention that he also caused the death of his uncle by playing black boxing, this kind of plot. Hehe, how did the screenwriters in Hollywood come up with it? β
"Why do people praise Hollywood movies all the time? Except for special effects and special effects. I don't think there's anything good about their plot. β
A large number of negative reviews swarmed up, as if all of a sudden all the film critics in China had woken up, and they all began to support domestic films one by one and became patriots.
But for Li Lin's gold medal group, it is a little bad.
"Diablo 1: Original Sin War has been affected." Qi Xiangdong said with a stern expression: "According to the disclosure of some movie magazines, the expectation of our "Diablo 1: Original Sin War" in the hearts of fans has dropped a lot, this is an internal number, and there is no falsehood. β
There are more or less traces of modification in the number jΓΉ published by the magazine, but their internal number jΓΉ is absolutely not wrong, but if they want to get the internal number jΓΉ, they have to pay a sum of money to the magazine.
They also rely on this way to make money from the hands of film and television production companies.
"Recently, those guys have mobilized the patriotism of movie fans, making them resist Hollywood movies." Li Lin rubbed his temples, "The wind and rain are coming." β
There is only one Hollywood blockbuster released recently, and that is "Diablo 1: Original Sin War", and they provoked a boycott of foreign countries at this time, needless to say, they came for the gold medal group.
And what's even more vicious is that they used the gun "Full of Golden Armor".
They are not afraid of ordinary guns, because they believe that "Diablo 1: Original Sin War" is enough to crush any movie of the same schedule, and only in Hollywood can there be movies that want to compete with "Diablo 1: Original Sin War", but all of those movies have been postponed without exception.
No one wants to fight with Diablo 1: Original Sin War, two tigers will fight each other, one will be injured, but it is more likely that two tigers will be injured together.
Businessmen are not willful people, they will not compete with "Diablo 1: War of Original Sin" for the sake of will, so Li Lin is not afraid of the big production to stop "Diablo 1: War of Original Sin".
But they used "The City is Full of Golden Armor".
It's not that "Full of Golden Armor" is strong, it's just because "Full of Golden Armor" and "Diablo 1: Original Sin War" both belong to the Gold Medal Group.
Their own movies are fighting each other, and whoever wins, the gold medal group will not be better.
"Let Director Zhang make a statement!" Qi Xiangdong proposed to build yΓ¬, "Let's just say that there was a problem with the post-processing of "The City Full of Golden Armor", and some shots needed to be reshot, so the release had to be postponed. β
He directly asked Zhang Yimou to appease the fans.
Before the release, most of the fans of "The City Full of Golden Armor" were attracted by Zhang Yimou's word-of-mouth, and he came forward to appease, which was the most suitable.
"Let Zhang Yimou appease him, in addition, the company's artists must also endorse the company, no matter what, the company must not be called a traitor."
"Once it's on, it's not just a loss of profit, I suspect they have a back-up plan for us."
Li Lin's prediction was correct.
Two days after the critics bombarded the group, an investigator directly came down from above to investigate the gold medal group on the grounds that the gold medal group was suspected of betraying national interests.
"Suspected of betraying national interests, are you kidding me?"
Qi Xiangdong lost his temper, anyone who suddenly came to the door by someone from the relevant department to say that he had betrayed the interests of the country, he would lose his temper, and this hat could not be buttoned up no matter what.
"Yes, we have received a report that your Gold Medal Group is suspected of betraying national interests." The relevant personnel said expressionlessly, "Please also cooperate with our investigation." β
"Got a tip? Who reported it, is it those vicious dogs who are jealous of our company, why, after slandering us in the newspaper, they still play with reporting, naΓ―ve or not? Qi Xiangdong roared angrily.
"Sorry, we can't disclose it according to the relevant regulations." The relevant personnel urged, "Please also ask Mr. Qi to cooperate with us in the inspection." β
"Wait."
Li Lin stopped the urging of the relevant personnel, "I really want to ask, if someone reports it, you will investigate?" β
He didn't believe it.
There are so many people who report every year, why do you just investigate him?
And he is not a high-tech company here, the only thing that has anything to do with high-tech is the Internet, but that level of technology is not looked at at at all by the top.
This kind of insensitive company has nothing to do with national interests at all.
As for the issue of being attacked by Hollywood movies, there are so many countries around the world that have been attacked by Hollywood movies, and no one has seen them come out and shout that it is a matter of national security or something.
"It's an internal process within the department, and I can't disclose it." The relevant personnel directly shirked and said.
"How many days do you need to check?"
Li Lin asked again.
"I'm sorry, I don't know, it depends."
"You investigate, can you conduct an investigation without hindering our work?"
"Sorry, I can't guarantee it."
"Sue me ......."
Li Lin asked one question after another, but all the answers from this person were sorry, simple and clear answers, but Li Lin couldn't say anything, and finally he had to wave his hand, "Take him to investigate." β
After staying in the office for a while, Li Lin dialed a number, "Sister Ye, the Gold Medal Group has been investigated, haven't you received the news?" β
He was asking if the struggle at the top involved the lower, and if so, then he considered himself unlucky.
"What, the Gold Medal Group is being investigated?" Ye Ziming was surprised for a while before asking, "Why?" β
Hearing her say this, Li Lin understood in his heart that this time it was not the struggle above that spread to the below, it should still be those people.
"Sister Ye, what is Wu Kebo's identity, do you know?"
Li Lin suspected that it was Wu Ke's volatile hand.
Among the major companies in the film and television industry, Wu Kebo's background is the most mysterious, and he is not clear about the involvement with the upper echelons, even people like Zhao Xingyu follow his orders, his identity is definitely not simple, and even has a great background.
"What do you ask him for?" Ye Ziming didn't answer immediately, but instead mentioned, "His identity is not simple, you'd better not provoke him." β
To provoke that kind of person, in Huaxia, is to suffer from yourself, maybe even the company will be eaten with a bone.
"The problem is that he took the initiative to provoke me." Li Lin smiled bitterly, "Probably the development of the Gold Medal Group has blocked his way, he has already attacked us one after another, and if he doesn't fight back, I'm afraid the entire group will be eaten." β
"You know what? Just now, people from relevant departments came to investigate our company, and if nothing went wrong, it was okay, but I was afraid that they would take the blame and eat the whole company together. β
Hearing Li Lin say that people from relevant departments came to investigate, Ye Ziming immediately became nervous, "The company's accounts are fine!" β
"No problem, there is no tax evasion, but reasonable tax avoidance methods are still used, and he has nothing to say about this." Li Lin said that the reason why reasonable tax avoidance is reasonable is entirely because this method is in line with relevant laws, and if only from a legal point of view, they are completely reasonable.
"It's just that you should also understand that if he insists on finding out the problem, even if it's okay, they will find out." (To be continued......)
