"It's useless. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Run Run Shaw waved his hand. "I'm going to persuade them now, I'm afraid it will make them make a bigger bet, so let them go, this tuition will have to be paid sooner or later."

Just when Run Run Shaw was lamenting for the development of Xiangjiang films, the two executives of the malaria line were also discussing this matter with great interest.

"Another Star Wars program! Chairman Lin is really a good means. Fei Daoyi said with some emotion.

"Star Wars?. The United States proposed the Star Wars program that year, "dragging down the socialist Soviet Union with an arms race." Now that Lin Mu has invested so much money to shoot Chinese blockbusters, other film companies have blindly invested regardless of their own strength, without the strong financial resources of Paramount behind Lin Mu, how long can they last? He Dingjun felt that Fei Daoyi's analogy was a bit appropriate. However, he felt that Lin Mu's original intention was not here, and even such a result might have been expected by Lin Mu a long time ago, but it was also very unwilling to see it. "Maybe Chairman Lin is also feeling embarrassed by this situation now, no matter what, Huang Baiming and they are still a little anxious." He Dingjun said with a sigh.

Presumably Huang Baiming is also riding a tiger now, with his eyes, he must be able to see the risks involved, with the success of "A Chinese Ghost Story: The Love of the World", Golden Harvest is after "Infernal Affairs". There will definitely be a similar Chinese-language film with a big budget and big production. Paramount's entry into Golden Harvest has brought a lot of pressure to Xiangjiang Films, if Golden Harvest continues to flourish, how will Xiangjiang's film companies survive in the future? If it's me. I think I'll do the same. Fei Daoyi's words hit the nail on the head and said the crux of the problem.

"Since it's gambling, then why do you think that Huang Baiming and they will definitely lose? . Ho Ding

Both asked.

"Because they want to win so much, they're going to lose." Fei Daoyi sighed, "If it's in a casino, this mentality of theirs is easy to be taken advantage of, and it can be said that they haven't opened a bet yet." They've already lost half of it. And this kind of mentality appears in film investment, which will greatly cause disagreements between investors and directors, and the director wants to create independently according to his personal wishes, but it will be contrary to the commercial value of the investor, and the final film will only be the product of compromise between the two parties. Such a film will either be dismal at the box office. Even the cost is difficult to recover; Either through advertising to get a temporary high box office, but will lose a lasting consumer base, imagine that people spend money once, will they spend a second time? ”

He Dingjun nodded, and had to admit that Fei Daoyi's words were indeed very incisive. "Then if Chairman Lin stands in Huang Baiming's current position, what do you think he will do?" He Dingjun put forward such a small hypothesis.

"Wait!" Fei Daoyi and He Dingjun looked at each other tacitly and smiled, and then said: "But in this way, we also have to speed up the pace, maybe the goal proposed by Chairman Lin before can be achieved in advance!" ”

"I don't think so." He Dingjun shook his head. "From a local point of view, Huang Baiming and their fall may be beneficial to Golden Harvest, but on the whole, according to your previous inference, it is very detrimental to the development of the entire Chinese film market, Chairman Lin finally pushed Chinese films to the international market, and the network small has created such a situation, and they are so disturbed, I am afraid that the future road of Chinese films will be more difficult." Fei Daoyi is far-sighted, but He Dingjun has a strong sense of the overall situation, and when he said this, even Fei Daoyi's face not only showed a worried expression.

"But you don't have to worry too much, I think Chairman Lin must have expected the current situation. Otherwise, he would not have let go of movies like "A Chinese Ghost Story: The Love of Another World", but he hurriedly asked Liu Weiqiang to start making a new film, and even made such a big investment. As long as "Infernal Affairs" lives up to expectations, next year's film market Golden Harvest will be invincible.

The more far-reaching effect of this move is to make the owners of the film company clearly see the importance of the director's independent creation to make a good film, so that their future investment will become more rational. And by the time they realize this, Golden Harvest's leading position has been unshaken, and a healthy competitive situation will be formed under conditions that we can control. He Dingjun said confidently.

Fei Daoyi nodded approvingly, for the future. He believed that He Dingjun saw farther than Yuzu, but he was still a little worried and said: "It's still a bit too risky to bet all your bets on "Infernal Affairs". ”

Chairman Lin is afraid that he has already considered this, and the film "Infernal Affairs" may just be a way for him to show his posture to the outside world, and the success or failure of the film is secondary. It doesn't matter if Mak Siu-fai is a horse or not. Chairman Lin, the Bole of the Chinese film industry, is decided. With tens of millions of funds just to prove an attitude, looking at today's film industry, I am afraid that only Chairman Lin has the courage. Among the people who came into contact with Lin Mu, He Dingjun may be the one who knows him best.

"In a few years, Xiangjiang is afraid that no one can match it." Fei Daoyi couldn't help but sigh.

This should be good news for Lin Mu, but now he can't be happy, and the Xiangjiang movie is now a complete mess. Lin Mu did not expect that the success of a film would have such a big impact on other film companies in Xiangjiang. At the beginning of the production of the film "A Chinese Ghost Story: A Lost World", Lin Mu wanted to position this film as a banner work that boosted the confidence of the Chinese film market and lit up hope for Chinese films. But now it seems. His flame of hope seemed to have been overlit.

Golden Harvest's future strength has made many people feel uneasy, although Lin Mu never thought of letting Golden Harvest dominate the Hong Kong film industry. In Lin Mu's view, the future market positioning of Golden Harvest is not Xiangjiang, but to face a broader international market.

However, in such a sensitive period after the economic crisis, people's nerves are highly sensitive, which makes Xiangjiang Film Company overestimate the threat that Golden Harvest will pose to them in the future.

And the success of the film "A Chinese Ghost Story: A Lost World" became a catalyst at this young age, making other film companies in Xiangjiang nervous and excited. In their opinion, this is a signal of the recovery of the Chinese film market, and only by entering this market first can they win the opportunity!

What made Lin Mu anxious was not only the current situation in Xiangjiang, but also the most headache for him was the exposure of his relationship with Lin Zhiling.

The fuse of the matter was that an entertainment magazine in Xiangjiang published a set of secretly taken photos in the second release of "A Chinese Ghost Story: The Quiet Fate of the World". The photo is the night when Hong Jinbao was drunk. Lin Mu walked out of the restaurant with the support of Lin Zhiling and got into the taxi. The behavior of the two at that time was more than intimate, and Lin Zhiling was two catties when she held Lin Mu. The human body is already leaning together, from the perspective of the peeper/photographer. Lin Mu completely held Lin Zhiling in his arms.

This is indeed a set of suspicious photos, and the most atmospheric thing is the additional report of this media outlet. The article counts the Hollywood actresses who have had scandals with Lin Mu in Hollywood, and means that the reason why Lin Zhiling was able to get the opportunity to star in the film "A Chinese Ghost Story: A Lost World" is entirely because of her ambiguous relationship with Lin Mu.

Since Lin Zhiling set foot in the entertainment industry, she has always maintained a good public image, because of this "accompanying the door" incident, her beautiful and elegant image of a jade girl began to be questioned by the media. Originally, a public welfare organization was going to invite her to be her image ambassador, but she changed her mind halfway through this incident. The blows that came her were physically and mentally exhausted. Without any explanation, she didn't even say goodbye to Lin Mu, and returned to Wanwan alone ahead of time.

Because I don't want to cause too much trouble to the woods. Lin Zhiling decided to take the initiative to leave Xiangjiang, a place of right and wrong, but even if she avoided the bend, the media was still not prepared to let her go so easily.

Every time she dies, there are reporters waiting near Lin Zhiling's home, and the constant harassment by the media has completely disrupted her normal work and life. The variety show hosted with Wu Zongxian was also temporarily suspended because of this incident, and the director of the show has even begun to consider changing a new partner for Wu Zongxian.

"Xiaoling, from today onwards, I will not allow you to contact that forest tree. If he doesn't disclose your relationship with him, you will completely cut off relations with him! You're a girl, you've done so much for him, and now you have to bear that kind of unexplained slander. Why are you suffering? "My daughter can only stay at home every day, and all kinds of statements are flying in the newspapers, as a mother, Wu Meici is feeling sorry for her daughter.

"Mom, I agreed with him not to disclose our relationship for three years, and what I hate the most is that the media asks about his private life, and he doesn't want things to turn out like this!" Although Lin Zhiling felt a little aggrieved in her heart, she was still speaking for Lin Mu.

"If he is a responsible man, he should stand up now and clarify this matter. Instead of driving all the reporters to your side. He is the dignified chairman of Paramount, powerful and powerful, and he doesn't talk to reporters who can't do anything about him. But you're different, you look at the present, your life is all messed up with all this mess. Doesn't he want to say, you just carry it yourself for the rest of your life? Wu Meici said angrily.

"Mom, there's a guest at home!" Just when the mother and daughter were whispering in the room, Lin Zhiling's brother Lin Zhihong suddenly broke in

Wu Meici glared at him angrily, "Zhihong, you are almost thirty years old, why are you still so reckless, you won't receive a guest when you come, don't you see me talking about business with my sister?" ”

"It's the woods here!" Lin Zhihong said in a huff: "I saw a car downstairs by the window, and after the people in the car got down, the surrounding reporters all surrounded them, and then jumped out of the car A few guys in black suits, three times and five divided by two, cleared a way for that person, I know that person, it is the forest tree that laughed with my little sister in the conversation that year!" ”

"What, you said Lin Mu came to our house? Wu Meici frowned, seeing that her daughter was also at a loss, she knew that Lin Mu should not have told Lin Zhiling in advance that she would come.

"Not yet, but I guess we'll be on our doorstep by now!" Before Lin Zhihong finished speaking, the doorbell at home rang.

"Zhiling! You are not allowed to come out in your room, and I will go see the woods!" Seeing that her brother was standing and didn't understand, obviously waiting for her mother's instructions, Lin Zhiling was about to open the door for Lin Mu by herself, but Wu Meici pulled her back.

"Mom, you". Lin Zhiling looked at her mother with a confused face.

"You are my daughter, you must have heard of it in this matter!" Wu Meici said very seriously, "If you go to see him now, you can't stop saying a few words and are bluffed by him again, and I will handle this matter!" ”

"Mom, but I" Before Lin Zhiling could say anything, Wu Meici interrupted her unceremoniously. "Zhihong, take good care of your little sister in the house, and without my permission, you are not allowed to let her out to meet that Lin Mu!" Her tone was very tough, and Lin Zhihong glanced at his sister helplessly, as if telling Lin Zhiling that he couldn't do anything about it

The person Lin Zhihong saw was indeed Lin Mu, and he was originally going to deal with this matter coldly. But the pressure on Lin Zhiling's side far exceeded his expectations, and he couldn't sit still anymore looking at those increasingly excessive media reports.

Although Lin Mu came to find Lin Zhiling was a temporary decision, it was not a whim on his whim, he had already thought about what to say when he saw Lin Zhiling. Lin Mu has had enough of sneaking together for such a long time, as long as Lin Zhiling agrees. He doesn't mind admitting the relationship between the two to the public now, so that the two can be together openly in the future.

Lin Mu originally thought so, but it was Lin Zhiling's mother Wu Meici who opened the door, and the door was opened, but Lin Mu was blocked by Wu Meici. It is said that the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the more she likes it, but Lin Mu not only did not see this expression on the face of her future mother-in-law, but was also glared at fiercely.

"It seems that my mother-in-law has moved all the grievances of the media to her head." Lin Mu smiled bitterly in his heart, and sure enough, Wu Meici's tone was a little thin as soon as she spoke: "Chairman Xiao is a busy man, why did he have time to come to our house?" She said so. But he had no intention of letting Lin Mu into the house.

"Auntie, I'm here to see Zhiling!" Lin Muyu said with a smile, he had never spoken in such a low voice in front of anyone, but who called this his mother-in-law!

"She's sick, she just took medicine and fell asleep, if Chairman Lin has nothing else, please come back!" Wu Meici didn't intend to give Lin Mu a good face from the beginning.

"Sick?. The naturally concerned expression on Lin Mu's face made Wu Meici nod secretly, it seems that her daughter still has some weight in this guy's heart. However, she didn't show this satisfaction, and Lin Mu passed her first test.

"Zhiling was fine when she talked to me on the phone yesterday, why did she suddenly get sick?" Regarding Wu Meici's words, Lin Mu couldn't help but be a little skeptical.

"It's normal for people to get sick." Wu Meici said expressionlessly.

"Can I go in and see her, then? I promise not to bother her, just take a look from afar?. Lin Mu tried to ask, although he still had doubts about whether Lin Zhiling was really sick, as long as he saw someone, the matter would come to light.

"Thank you Chairman Lin for your concern, but the doctor said that Xiaoling needs to recuperate now, so Chairman Xiao should please go back." Wu Meici said coldly.

"Auntie, I want to know if Zhiling is really sick!" Lin Mu didn't give up, and his tone was no longer so accommodating and tolerant.

"I'm her mother, and you're doubting me right now?" Wu Meici's acting skills are indeed first-class, but she forgot that Lin Mu did the work of dealing with acting, and some details of her expression changed and she betrayed her.

Although he has already seen through Wu Meici's performance. But Lin Mu didn't say anything: "Auntie, there is nothing in this world that cannot be doubted. I am not asking you this to suspect your love for her daughter as a mother, nor to deliberately offend you. I asked this just to make sure that Ji-ree was really sick. ”

"If yes, I wish I could see her now, and I want to tell you that I care no less about her than you do. If she's not sick, then you must have your reasons for stopping me out, but I'd also like to know why. Even if I'm wrong, you should let me know what to do to correct it." Lin Mu calmly met Wu Meici's scrutinizing gaze. In his eyes, Wu Meici saw that sincerity.

This scene obviously can't go on, Wu Meici sighed softly, "I want to know if you are serious about our family Zhiling?" ”

"Zhiling is not the first girl I have fallen in love with, before this, I also experienced a failed love, I thought at the time. There is no one else who can mend the rift in my heart and then on the banks of the beautiful St. Lawrence River. I met her. We were just friends at the time, but for some reason, she smiled. It's always able to pull me. At that time, she asked me if I believed in fate, and I didn't believe in fate at that time. But after separating from her. I found myself inexplicably shadowing her in my heart.

"The bend is so big, but I met her again in the vast sea of people, and after that reunion in the church, I believe that she is a gift from God, an angel that I need to protect for the rest of my life. I'm not a person who is overflowing with feelings, so please believe my feelings for Ji-ree! ”

"What I need is not commitment, if you really like Zhiling, now you should know how to do it!" Faced with Lin Mu's plea, Wu Meici knew that he should understand what he meant.
