Chapter 544: Bait (2)

"Wow!" The audience was in an uproar.

How dare you say that you can make it into the top ten?

How many people predicted that the top three was Lin Xiao stepped on shit, and now he actually said that he could still enter the top ten this time?

"Write it down!" A reporter said excitedly: "When the box office comes out, if you don't get in, it's a slap in the face!" ”

"Bad to get in? This is a Chinese film slowly entering the Asia-Pacific market. How exclusive are the Japanese and Korean markets? How many years have you not been in? ”

Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion.

"Mr. Lin, some people say that you are a new generation of great directors in China, who has surpassed director Feng Xiaogang, what do you think?" Another reporter asked a question.

Lin Xiao glanced at the other party silently.

I can't see the badge clearly, it's too far, but it's probably a magazine that doesn't like him.

There are many people who are popular, this is the convention, there are a lot of people who praise him, and naturally more people want to trample him to death.

"I'm just an entertainer. Or rather, I just want to be an artist. He thought for a moment and said, "However, some things are not subject to human will, I want to make a good movie, I want to play a better role, a role is like a play, but there are not always so many good roles for me to play." In order to try more for myself, I chose the Trinity. ”

"As for what other people think, I can only try to do my best, I never wanted to compare with the two seniors, I am just me. will only work hard to play the role he wants to play, write a script that is more suitable for him, and that's it, these comparisons are meaningless. ”

"Oh? So, Mr. Lin doesn't care about the two seniors? ”

The crowd was dumbfounded.

This kind of question can be regarded as a prick, which company's reporter is this? is so short-sighted, now Lin Xiao's identity, how many families dare to stir up trouble?

The person next to him glanced at the reporter's badge and smiled secretly, "It turned out to be a reporter from the Eighth Weekly, it seems that Lin Xiao sued Dongfang Xindi for undue enrichment last time, but it is still fresh in their memory." ”

Lin Xiao frowned, he had already remembered the location of the reporter, smiled and said, "You are misinterpreting, they are seniors, I don't want to compare, and I don't think my level can reach the level of two teachers." Alright, next. ”

"Mr. Lin." Immediately, a reporter stood up, "Where did you get the inspiration for your script?" How did you come up with the idea of making a war movie? ”

This is a live broadcast, when Kebin was asking questions, in a family courtyard in Beijing, a kind old man walked out and patted the head of his granddaughter who was watching the TV series intently, "What?" Chasing stars again? ”

The house is not big, but it is definitely not small, and there are no luxurious furnishings, but those who are interested will notice that the Pan Tianshou landscape map hanging on the wall is a genuine handiwork.

The granddaughter pouted, "People just like him, look what's going on." ”

"Good, good, look. See. The old man said four monosyllabic words, took his reading glasses, and was about to enter the study when he was attracted by a passage.

"At the dawn, there will be a 'rallying number, looking for the old soldiers around you' activity."

He stopped, his eyes shining a light that was disproportionate to his age, and he looked at the screen in surprise.

"War is made of people. When I was writing the script, I talked to two old revolutionaries ....... ”

They mentioned that during the war, many comrades were broken up and could not find the team. Some entire teams were wiped out, and the number of troops was canceled afterwards, and the assembly number told such a story. ”

The granddaughter didn't notice that the old man's hand clenched unconsciously.

"Good grandson, what kind of show is this?" The old man sat down unexpectedly and looked at the oversized TV, "This person who speaks seems to be quite familiar, I seem to have seen his things...... Called, Lin ...... Lin what? ”

"Lin Xiao!" The granddaughter looked at the TV without blinking and said, "Grandpa, this is a press conference for his new film." You know the dawn! ”

"I know, it's a good website to pass the time, I just charged a few thousand into it, and I plan to order some military programs when I'm fine."

"Yes, look." The granddaughter is more than happy to share her idol with her grandfather," he said, "to carry out the operation of the Old Warrior Assembly on the Dawn. Grandpa, should I go to participate! Aren't you an old soldier! Maybe you'll be able to see him......"

The granddaughter chattered, but the old man basically didn't listen.

"Rally ......," he muttered, "what a nostalgic sound......"

With a sigh, he walked into the house.

In the room, the furnishings were very ordinary, perhaps because of some memories, he took out a photo album and flipped through it.

His hand stopped, and on the page was a yellowed black-and-white photograph of several young men laughing together, shoulder-to-shoulder, in very old-fashioned military uniforms.

His wrinkled hands trembled, and he stroked the picture gently.

"How long has it been......" his voice was like a dream, "262 regiments are all gone...... Liberation of Nanjing...... Without your corpse...... You...... Are you still there......"

"Is it broken up...... People are looking for needles in the sea...... So many years...... Decades have passed...... I can't find a shadow ......."

"Hundreds of people, in order to pull out a stronghold...... Rushing forward with a bomb strapped to ...... When he died, he pulled the rope ......" he closed his eyes, and his breathing was a little rapid and uneven" Comrade of the year...... Where the hell are you......"

Just then, his cell phone rang.

"Hey." By the time he connected, his voice had regained its calm.

An inexplicable majesty, and a domineering spirit that has been in the top position for a long time, arises spontaneously.

"Chief, the engineer commissar would like to meet with you to discuss the issue of appropriation." On the other side of the phone, a respectful voice came.

"Yes, I'll go right away."

Just as he was about to hang up the phone, he suddenly asked, "Do you know the dawn?" ”

"Yes, Chief."

"Does his network belong to both Hong Kong and Taiwan?"

"Yes, chief, according to our monitoring, we have not violated state regulations, especially Taiwan, which is very tightly controlled." The voice on the other end of the phone paused, "Chief, is there any problem?" Do you want to cancel this company? Government takeover of the network? ”

The old man paused, "It's okay, I'll ask." ”

He hung up the phone, took off his coat, and looked at the military uniform hanging on the wall.

On that brand-new military uniform, there are three gold stars!

No more than thirty three-star generals in China!

However, his gaze did not linger for a second, and swept to a military uniform next to him.

That military uniform is actually the military uniform of the Whampoa Military Academy!

"Rally?" He muttered to himself again, "Lost comrades? ”

After a while, he smiled bitterly, took away his military uniform and put it on.

He didn't leave, his eyes looked at the photo album and the remaining military uniform on the wall for a long time before he sighed and picked up the phone.

"Chief." The voice on the other side of the phone was also extremely respectful, but it was not the same person just now.

"Help me keep an eye on a website's recent activity."

Although the other person on the phone was extremely confused, he immediately agreed, "Yes, chief, may I ask which website and what activity?" ”

"A video website called Dawning, called Assembly, looking for old comrades-in-arms."

"Yes!"

……

The next day, all entertainment magazines published Lin Xiao's cover with a front-page headline.

"Lin Xiao's new film assembly number! Video events will be launched at the same time! War films, which are expected to enter the top ten in Japan and South Korea! ”

"Rally call! A rallying call for veterans! At the same time, the video website launched a rallying activity. ”

"Nearly 100 million invested! Dawn does not have enough funds to apply for a loan! Pepsi Investment! ”

"Hmph." At Wanda headquarters, a man frowned and threw the magazine on the sofa, "It's another year-end war!" ”

"Oh, dear Zhang, why should you worry, at the end of this year, Wanda will have a Harry Potter series released, why be afraid of a new artist and director?" A white man drinking coffee next to him laughed, "I don't believe his film can beat Harry Potter." ”

"I'll try to get their schedules and let them know what a real blockbuster is." The foreigner said leisurely, "In addition, I'll give you a good news, it's not just Warner's family who doesn't like him." ”

He restrained his smile, "The Big Seven, which one doesn't want to be in charge of China, but now Dawn actually has a dominant momentum!" ”

"Video sites are their cornerstone." He gritted his teeth and said, "It can be said that with this in hand, they will not be defeated." ”

"However, this is only theoretical."

"The premise is that if foreign blockbusters are not released with him." His voice was gloomy, "The Lunar New Year file is only a few days, if all the films of our Big Seven are full of New Year files, no matter when he is released, he will encounter a sniper from a giant production, I see how he will continue to shoot!" How many times does he dare to come to this kind of big investment? ”

"He shoots one, let's snipe one! After two or three times, he used another five-second ad, and no one would believe it again! ”

"I'd like to see why he's up against the vanguard of the Big Seven." The white man sneered, "Dear Zhang, you don't have to worry, no one can compete with the Big Seven yet." Universal is Spider-Man this year, DreamWorks has Shrek, and a film by a new director can be majestic to the end? I don't believe it! ”

Zhang Yongliang was taken aback, and then said suspiciously, "You mean, now a giant company that has entered China...... Already in action? ”

"He touches the interests of all of us!" The white man frowned and said, "We don't need a unified Chinese market, which will make our investment go down the drain, we need a market that is in everyone's interest." ”

"It's not Warner's mentions, but it's with the consent of all the people who have companies in China."

Zhang Yongliang took a deep breath: "You guys are hurting the box office confrontation...... Kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 yourself. ”

"Long pain is better than short pain." The white man also said reluctantly, "Let this company, this person continue to develop like this, and in the future, our share in the Chinese film and television industry will be less." ”

In the dawn, Lin Xiao didn't pay attention to the outside public opinion at all, and Lin Xiao and Qin Zhong were sitting nervously in front of the computer.

"How much did you receive in the mailbox?" Lin Xiao asked the staff quietly.

"Dozens of emails."

"Is it according to the standard?"

"Some are, some don't."

"If it doesn't follow the standard, you return it back and attach the standard pattern." Lin Xiao looked at the emails that came out, they were all photos and features.

"Screening and bringing together each region." He instructed, "Make a video of what is qualified." ”
