Chapter 407: Letter of Apology!
If......
If Zhou Yang didn't appear at the beginning.
Probably he should be the hit of "Mechanical Man" and become the first person worthy of the name of a young Chinese director.
With the momentum, "Night Walker" broke through the box office of 700 million, officially becoming the first person at the box office of Chinese commercial films, the leader of the six generations of directors in China, and the savior of Chinese films.
After the five generations of directors of the older generation retired, he naturally became the president of the Huaxia Film Association, and led many directors under him to compete with Hollywood films, creating a new era of Chinese films in the fight.
Django has confidence in himself and believes that this is the path he wants to take as a leader in the future.
He's actually been working hard.
Not only is he working very hard professionally, but he is also very hard working on filming, whether it is filming "Ex Machina" or "Night Walker", he has done everything to the best of his ability, even if he looks back now, he doesn't feel that he has spent any day in the movie.
However......
Zhou Yang's birth disrupted all his rhythms.
Once proud and talented, he began to become worthless in front of Zhou Yang, and gradually became a ridiculous supporting role.
An ordinary person born in a junior college or non-film major, who casually makes a debut film, can appear at the Berlin International Film Festival and win an award that has never been won in the Chinese film industry.
An ordinary person who has never studied acting skills, the second film even won a full house, although it did not win an award, but it shined in Cannes and praised countless times.
An ordinary person who has never been to the United States made a horror movie in Hollywood, and the box office exceeded 100 million US dollars after its release, which is shocking......
An ordinary person who has never studied music seriously can make up a tune casually, which can be admired by some overseas arrangers......
β¦β¦
in the room.
The lights are dim.
Django sat alone in the corner, smoking cigarettes one by one.
Cough while smoking.
After all, he doesn't smoke often, and if he smokes a little, he will choke people, but it is precisely because of this choking that he really feels that he is alive.
This world is so magical that after leaving Zhou Yang's company, Django even felt in a trance that he was living in a nightmare that he couldn't wake up from.
The harsh reality has left Django devastated.
"Doot, doot."
in the corner.
The phone rang.
Django coughed for a long time, then looked at his phone.
The number displayed on the mobile phone is from the United States, and without thinking about it, Django knows that this number was called by Zhao Sicheng.
He answered the phone.
"I took a movie here, you help me shoot it well, and it doesn't matter if you sign it......"
"I know you're feeling very uncomfortable right now, I can understand how you feel in your heart, don't worry, uncle won't hurt you...... We are a community of interests. β
"Look, even if this happens, you're fine, aren't you? So, be bold and amplify a bit...... This is the difference between you and Zhou Yang, Zhou Yang is a despicable villain, no matter what, he is willing to do it......"
ββ¦β¦β
The voice of the cold greeting on the phone rang in Django's ears.
Django suddenly felt a little harsh, and for some reason, he began to feel ashamed in his heart.
He didn't know what Zhao Sicheng was going to do, but he knew that Zhao Sicheng would never be able to benefit himself in vain.
How can there be a pie in the sky?
A month ago, he had been blinded by hatred because of jealousy, and had made a deal with the devil and done some ridiculous things.
And now, he's sober.
At least he didn't want to have anything to do with Zhao Sicheng.
Zhao Sicheng is an American, and he, at least he is Chinese......
"I'm sorry, uncle......"
On the other end of the phone, it seemed shocked that Django would suddenly refuse, and there was silence for a while.
"I'll try to win once on my own......"
"Do you really think that Zhou Yang won by his own efforts? Don't you know how his successful movies were successful? "Infernal Affairs", all arranged by yourself? Little ginger, you're so young, John. How much William Puss helped him! Do you understand...... In this world, honest people can't survive...... Zhou Yang looks honest, but in fact, he is very calculating, and even I am not an opponent...... I'll show you a set of data, and after you read the things in the mailbox, you will know how ...... Zhou Yang was when he was making a movie."
On the other end of the phone, Zhao Sicheng kept instilling Django with various contents, and asked people to send some so-called "evidence" to Django's mailbox.
Django didn't look at the mailbox, but silently hung up the phone.
The phone rang again.
The content of Zhao Sicheng's phone call is no longer a persuasion, but a threat.
"You don't want anyone else to know that you're in contact with me, do you? You don't want your fans to know that you called me yourself and asked me to help run the box office of "Nightcrawler", right? I have a recording of your chat with me, and I dare to guarantee that if I release the filthy things you said, Cao Bangguo will not be able to protect you! When the watch also stands the archway, do you really think that you are ice and jade? β
"If your scandal is exposed, how many people do you think will go to the cinema to watch 'Nightcrawler'? I remember you signed a VAM agreement with Capital, right? Judging from the current box office, if you just meet the bet, if you draw in advance, you will have to lose at least 200 million yuan...... Cao Bang will help you compensate? β
"Speaking of Cao Bangguo, do you really think Cao Bangguo is clean? When he was younger, you know what he did? In the chaotic era, he was very ruthless, and you really think that after you failed again and again, he would always help you up? What are you kidding......"
ββ¦β¦β
Django's face turned pale, and suddenly it felt like the world was spinning.
Pictures of the future come to mind!
A pair of indifferent eyes, disappointed expressions, bursts of abuse and accusations......
From the top, the feeling that the high-profile young genius has become a prisoner in an instant is difficult for him to accept.
His life seems to have collapsed because of this.
Moment......
He suddenly felt the darkness around him grow thicker and thicker, overwhelming him, and began to gradually suffocate, gradually being overwhelmed by the darkness.
He kept his head down.
I listened to it for a long, long time.
Zhao Sicheng's threatening voice became heavier and heavier, and even said something about what Cao Bangguo and others had done in the chaotic era.
Django felt his three views gradually crumble, and then became a little cold, as if he recognized his teacher's appearance for the first time.
But then......
Suddenly laughed.
Why should I listen to such a person, don't I have the ability to judge for myself?
And, why should I be afraid of him?
I rushed into Zhou Yang's office and told Zhou Yang all these things, I have already considered the consequences of doing this, and now I am still afraid that Zhao Sicheng will announce everything?
Ahead was the abyss, and he couldn't take another step forward.
"Say it! Tell them! Tell the world, I don't care, I'm not afraid! I have nothing to fear right now! He suddenly yelled on the phone.
The other end of the phone was stunned at first......
"Being abandoned by Uncle Cao can only be said to be incompetent...... I don't care what he was like, but at least, I should believe in him, not you! β
"Get out, get out!"
He hung up the phone.
Then smash the phone to pieces.
But instead of being angry, he went to the window, opened the curtains, and let a moonlight shine on him, and he felt himself drenched.
It seemed that he was fearless at this moment.
Subsequently, he appeared on Weibo, and without even the slightest hesitation, he @δΊε¨ζ΄η§εδΊδΈζ‘ιζδΏ‘ on Weibo.
After sending a letter of apology privately......
For the first time, he @ the charity on Weibo, and publicly announced that he would donate all the personal benefits from "Night Walker".
Then, gritted his teeth again!
Finally, he released a public apology letter against the crew of "Infernal Affairs" on Weibo for the first time......
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"it!"
"Damn, Django is crazy!"
"There's big news in the movie circle, my mom, what's special, it turns out that "Zhao Sicheng" did this series of dirty things, and it turned out to be the ...... contacted by Django"
"This humane and sanctimonious, looks very handsome, and is a very talented director, but I didn't expect that he is such a good person behind his back!"
"Dog traitor, damn, helping outsiders to oppress compatriots, Cao Nima, how can such a person still stay in the film industry!"
"It's so pitiful, Director Zhou is so pitiful!"
"Hey, this line of water is too deep, Zhou Yang's rise is too exaggerated, and he must be hated by others......"
"However, he apologized by himself, he can't stand the condemnation of his conscience, at least this person is not bad, and he should be saved when he is lost?"
"Save a fart, he thinks that donating this money will make his conscience feel better? has the ability to donate all the box office proceeds of "Infernal Affairs" like Zhou Yang, he just wants to get a little peace of mind......"
ββ¦β¦β
August 26.
The entire Chinese film industry has experienced another earthquake.
When everyone thought that the box office of "Night Walker" stealing "Infernal Affairs" had completely passed and almost stopped, no one could have imagined that director Django suddenly revealed himself on Weibo.
He apologized to netizens and the crew of "Infernal Affairs" in the form of an apology, and explained the causes and consequences of this incident, as well as the irrational things he did because of his jealousy, and felt deeply remorseful.
Netizens were stunned!
Not only netizens were stunned.
Even Zhou Yang was stunned when he saw this news.
He couldn't have imagined that a director like Django, who has always been arrogant and even narrow-minded, would suddenly come to such a play inexplicably.
On the Internet, Zhou Yang saw netizens scolding Django for a while, full of all kinds of dog traitors, garbage, cerebral palsy and other words.
It's almost a career-ruining operation!
It's so irrational!
"Doesn't this guy want to mess around in this business?"
"This is a fatal wound for the movie "Night Stalker"!"
in the office.
Xu Mei looked at the big movement made by Django and immediately muttered to herself.
Zhou Yang didn't know what to say.
He turned his head and looked out the window for a long time.
Thinking about business, human sophistication, and the future, the more I think about it, the more I feel like Django is a fool.
But if you think about it from a human perspective......
"I seem to understand what he's doing......"
Just when Xu Mei was distracted, Xu Mei's phone rang.
Then, he looked at Zhou Yang in disbelief.
"Mr. Zhou, our "Infernal Affairs" was shortlisted for the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards, and 15 awards were nominated for ......"
"How much?"
"Fifteen awards!"
