Chapter 405: Each by its own means
..........
In the next few days, the crew of "Tang Detective 2" flew to Shacheng, Changcheng, Guangcheng, Shencheng, Chuancheng, and Yudu, and held twelve fan meetings in a row.
Everywhere I went, I was warmly received by local fans, and the movie-watching mood was unprecedentedly high.
With the publicity of Hengyu Media, the news that "Tang Detective 2" was released on the first day of the Lunar New Year entered thousands of households at the fastest speed.
A look at "Tang Detective 2" at the beginning of the new year has become the hottest topic at present, and on the Weibo hot search list, the popularity once overshadowed the Chinese New Year's Eve Spring Festival Gala.
It's been four years, and "Tang Detective 1" has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!
On Tudou Video, the playback volume of "Tang Detective 1" exceeded 100 million, accumulating an incomparably large audience.
Countless audiences are looking forward to "Tang Detective 2" and are looking forward to the release of the movie as soon as possible.
is like the sentence 'an arrow piercing the clouds, thousands of troops come to meet', the fan meeting held this time completely ignited the enthusiasm of the audience.
In addition to the audience's expectations, major film and television companies and filmmakers in the circle are also paying attention to "Tang Detective 2" all the time.
On the Internet, many media reported Fang Ziheng's words of 2 billion, saying that Hengyu wanted to use Zhongying Hard Steel, the distributor of "Tang Detective 2" and "Havoc in Heaven".
The title was very bluffing, causing countless netizens to watch.

[International directors try to be the number one in Chinese films! ] 】
["Tang Detective 2", will use facts to tell the world who is the real king of Chinese films! ] 】
Under each theme, there are millions of likes, tens of thousands of comments, and a large number of water armies are hidden in it, provoking the rhythm of the Spring Festival war between Hengyu and China Film.
It feels like this is a battle for innovation!
Whoever wins, who is the king of the Chinese film and television industry!
An atmosphere of mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, and with the competition between the two movies, it quickly spreads and presses over the entertainment industry.
The first to see that something was wrong was the bosses of several well-known film and television companies.
While they are salivating over "Tang Detective 2", they are preparing to fish in troubled waters and join this war.
.........
Huayi headquarters!
Wang Zhongjun sat on the boss's chair, sighed, and looked at the two invitations in his hand indifferently.
A celebration of Charlotte's Troubles tonight.
A copy of the premiere of "Tang Detective 2" held on the 28th of the lunar month.
The two invitations belong to Hengyu Media, and the content of them has nothing to do with Huayi.
Putting down the celebration banquet of "Charlotte's Troubles", Wang Zhongjun tightly squeezed the invitation to "Tang Detective 2", and a trace of pain flashed on his indifferent face.
Who would have thought that "Tang Detective 2" waited four years to meet the audience.
I didn't expect that the film market would be so popular in recent years, with movies with a box office of more than one billion one after another.
The box office potential of "Tang Detective 2", as long as there are no major problems, you can reach the 1 billion club with your eyes closed.
knew this earlier, when he invested in "The Four Famous Catches", he had to set the investment share of "Tang Detective 2" with Fang Ziheng in advance.
Alas..
It's all late.
Wang Zhongjun sighed leisurely, staring at the invitation, and couldn't help but think of the scene of the first meeting with Fang Ziheng.
That year, he put his hands in his pockets, took the soon-to-be-listed Huayi brothers, and looked around the entire film and television industry, not knowing what an opponent was.
That year, "Nobody" was born, and Fang Ziheng took the "Tang Detective 1" project and took away two million original shares of Huayi.
He is very optimistic about Fang Ziheng and hopes to invest in Hengyu Media, which has just been established.
Pity..
was confused by Fang Ziheng's investment in two movies in a row, "Tang Detective 1" and "Four Famous Catches 1", and missed the best opportunity to invest in Hengyu Media.
Then, Fang Ziheng was uncontrollable, a cutting-edge director, a commercial director, and an international director, and he was no longer the object that he, a film and television veteran, could handle.
Then, Hengyu Media attacked left and right, one step a year.
In just three years, Fang Ziheng took Hengyu to overturn Huayi and became the most valuable media film and television company in the Chinese film and television industry.
Large investment banks in the outside world even gave an offer of 100 billion valuation, just to catch the ship of Hengyu Media.
100 billion!
The total market capitalization of Huayi is not so much!
Wang Zhongjun can already foresee that with the release of "Tang Detective 2" and the blockbuster, Hengyu Media's valuation, volume, and influence will definitely get higher and bigger.
Hua Yi wants to catch up, but he doesn't know the Year of the Monkey!
Alas...
Another sigh.
Wang Zhongjun put down the invitation letter with great interest and dialed his younger brother Wang Zhonglei's phone: "Hey, Zhonglei, you come over." ”
"Brother, what's the matter?"
"Hengyu sent two invitations, I don't want to go, you go to participate on my behalf."
Not for a while.
Wang Zhonglei arrived, looked at the two invitations in front of him with a puzzled face, and asked, "Brother, don't you want to repair the relationship with Fang Ziheng?" This is a great opportunity! ”
"The time is not yet ripe."
Wang Zhongjun shook his head, pointed to the invitation to the premiere of "Tang Detective" on the desk, and said in a deep voice: "Judging from the recent fan meeting held by "Tang Detective 2", the popularity of the movie is a foregone conclusion, not to mention surpassing the 1.8 billion box office of "Hong Kong Embarrassment", at least it can beat "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven"!
Let me ask you, who is in charge of "Havoc in Heaven"?
"Shadow!" Wang Zhonglei blurted out, still puzzled.
"Heh... Since it is China Film, do you think that after the two movies are in the ring, the relationship between Hengyu Media and China Film will be as harmonious and friendly as before? ”
"Big brother, you mean to say that after Hengyu and Zhongying have a conflict, we will send warmth."
"It's impossible to have a contradiction, Fang Ziheng is not a fool!"
Wang Zhongjun shook his head again, a smile appeared on his calm face, and he lowered his voice a little and said: "As long as there is a slight gap between the two sides, it will definitely delay the pace of their follow-up cooperation, and when the time comes, we will have a chance." ”
"Understood, I'll go to the front station first, express our goodwill to Fang Ziheng, smooth out the mutual blackening between "Private Custom" and "Charlotte's Troubles" before, and then you will negotiate when the time is ripe."
Wang Zhonglei's eyes lit up, and he understood his eldest brother's plan.
Immediately, he moved in his heart again, waved his hand and made a knife making a knife movement, and asked his brother: "Brother, do we want to add fire to the two movies when they are released, so that the gap between Hengyu and Zhongying will widen a little." ”
"This can be there."
Wang Zhongjun glanced at his younger brother appreciatively and smiled: "However, we can't do this kind of thing, find an opportunity to reveal it to Ali Pictures, Fan Luyuan will definitely be interested." ”
"Quack... Ah, brother, your plan is desperate. ”
Wang Zhonglei's face was shocked, and then he let out a sinister smile and gave a thumbs up to his eldest brother.
........
Here, the two brothers are planning how to pry the corner of the shadow.
The other side.
At the headquarters of Bona Films, Yu Dong is also thinking about the company's project next year and how to fight hard for the group's return to A-shares.
In the chairman's office.
Yu Dong sat on the hospitality sofa, and across from him sat a middle-aged man in his early fours.
The middle-aged man's name is Huang Wei, who is the vice president of Bona Film and the general manager of Bona Cinema Investment Company.
On the coffee table in front of the two of them, there were two invitations sent by Hengyu.
""Chinatown Explorer", what a good project, why doesn't we have Bona's points."
Yu Dong smiled bitterly, pushed the invitation letter of "Charlotte's Troubles" in front of Huang Wei, and advised: "Lao Huang, the celebration banquet of the movie, you will go on behalf of the group, and after you go, have a good chat with Wang Dong of Hengyu Cinema." ”
"Okay, Chairman."
Huang Wei responded with a smile, instantly understanding Yu Dong's purpose for letting him go to the celebration banquet.
At the celebration banquet, the executives of Hengyu Group will definitely be present, and Wang Dong of Hengyu Cinema Line is also among them.
Festive moments are the best opportunity to chat.
The development speed of Hengyu Cinema Line is outrageous, and it got rid of Bona Cinema Line in two years and squeezed into the top 15 in the industry.
At present, PropNex has limited funds, and the development of the cinema chain has been delayed again and again, so it is urgent to find an alliance to stabilize the group's distribution power.
Yu Dong had talked to him before, if he could, it would be too difficult for Bona Cinemas to join a co-publishing company.
Among the private joint distribution companies, the Big Dipper Distribution Company led by Hengyu is the most powerful, and the films distributed are all high-quality.
Huang Wei also knew the reason why the chairman insisted on attending the premiere of "Tang Detective 2" in person.
PropNex Group has long wanted to set up the "Mekong Action", and the chairman has discussed with Fang Ziheng several times.
Now that the Spring Festival is coming, the New Year will be celebrated soon, and "Operation Mekong" can finally be launched.
After PropNex's return to A-shares, whether it can succeed depends on how much role the "Mekong Operation" can play.
This project, which is favored by all the senior management of Huber&Ranner, is not only the most big production of the group in the next two years, but also the only big production that has been set at present.
There is no room for error!
China Film Group.
In the chairman's office, Han Dong and Chen Yu were also chatting about the two invitations issued by Hengyu.
Han Dong handed the two invitations to Chen Yu and smiled lightly: "At this time, I am not suitable to go to the party, you can take me there." ”
"It's not good for me to go, the Kang Bureau said a few days ago, let me adjust my schedule, don't miss the premiere of "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven"." Chen Yu took the invitation and smiled bitterly.
I don't know if it's deliberate, the premieres of the two movies were chosen on the 28th of the lunar month.
In the eyes of the outside world, the fighting situation between Hengyu and China Film is becoming more and more obvious.
Han Dong waved his hand and let Chen Yu relax: "It's okay, I'll go to the premiere of "Havoc in Heaven" in person." ”
"You go this time, help me bring a message to Fang Ziheng, just say that the responsibility and mission of China Film will never change!"
"Understood, I'll bring the words!" Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, straightened his chest reluctantly, and responded loudly.
In his heart, there was another scene, and Fang Ziheng was envious.
Han Dong's words were almost a confession to Fang Ziheng.
No matter what the outside world thinks, and no matter what Kang Liang of the Film Bureau does, Han Dong and China Film are optimistic about him Fang Ziheng and Hengyu Media.
This kind of treatment is only enjoyed by Fang Ziheng alone, and even Lao Mouzi, a master of Chinese films, has never had it.
Of course.
In China Film's view, the confrontation between the two movies this time is not a big deal.
Chen Yu and Han Dong both persuaded Kang Yan to adjust the schedule of "Havoc in Heaven", but Kang Yan was reluctant and had to put the movie on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
is also official, so that the outside world can see the tense atmosphere between the two sides, giving some film and television companies an opportunity.
The two sides are fighting, so they fish in troubled waters.
Thinking of this, Chen Yu condensed in his heart and said to Han Dong: "Han Dong, Kang Bureau is so optimistic about "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace", I am afraid it may not be his personal idea, someone is making small moves in the back. ”
Han Dong's eyes flashed, and while he took out a cigarette, he thought about it and said, "Small action, do you mean Ali Pictures, or Hua Yi?" ”
"Ali Pictures is the majority."
Chen Yu pursed his mouth, quickly took out a lighter to help Han Dong light it, and took a cigarette from his hand.
The relationship between the two is solid, and there has been this slightly outrageous, but apparently intimate behavior in private.
Han Dong didn't care about the speed of Chen Yu's smoke, he smoked a cigarette and said categorically: "Hua Yi can't be, the relationship between Wang Zhongjun and Lao Kang has not reached that level." ”
Chen Yu nodded, it's not Huayi, it's Ali Pictures.
There are three major elements in the rise of Huayi, one is that the movie was made early, the vision was accurate, and it bound the Feng pants that could sell well.
The second is that he has a relationship with the top, the former film bureau is Tong Gang, and his private relationship with Wang Zhongjun is very good.
Three, naturally, it is the help of China Film Group.
As early as when Han Dong was still the vice chairman of China Film, he saw that the two brothers were from the Beijing circle, and they took care of Hua Yiduo.
By the time commercial films took off, Hua Yi Brothers had already been full-fledged, in addition to the lack of cinema chains, production, distribution, and artist brokerage were one-stop, becoming the number one film and television company in Huaguo.
Wang Zhongjun is also a character, stepping into the threshold of the old fox, it is indeed unlikely that he will do something to sow discord at such a time.
On the contrary, Ali Pictures, which came in across the border, has its eyes above the top, relying on its abundant funds to secretly attack the movies released by Hengyu many times.
Especially the new chairman of Ali Pictures, Fan Luyuan, who is a ruthless person, he has done all illegal things, and he can't do anything.
Moreover, the relationship between Ali Pictures and Kang Yan has always been very good, and they asked Kang Yan to come forward to say yes last time Zhao Yanzi incident.
Chen Yuba lit a cigarette and quickly sorted out the reason why the two movies were put in the ring.
I can't say it, it's Ali Pictures who is coaxing behind the scenes, lifting Kang Yan out to suppress Fang Ziheng's majesty.
It's just that Fang Ziheng is iron, and he doesn't eat the other party's set at all, and chooses to use the hard steel of "Tang Detective 2" to the end.
Thoughts are flying.
Chen Yuwu smiled to himself: "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace, it's a pity." ”
"It's a shame indeed."
Han Dong surged out, and a trace of unknown meaning flashed between his eyebrows.
..........
Duplex with bedrooms on the second floor.
Fang Ziheng leaned on the head of the bed, looking enjoyable, so he was not at ease.
In his arms, snuggled up to a bewitching and familiar figure.
Concubine Lin was wearing black lace underwear, half-uncovered and half-worn, clinging to his chest, and a flush appeared on her fair face, with the afterglow of love.
Good for a while.
Sister Lin regained a trace of vitality, scraped her lover's chest with her nails, and said softly: "What did Kang Yan say over there?" ”
"Fortunately, the Kang Bureau has a very large pattern, and although I was a little dissatisfied on the phone that "Tang Detective 2" did not make way for "Havoc in Heaven", it didn't make it too difficult for me."
Fang Ziheng smiled, took the beauty's hand and moved it behind her back, unbuttoning the only remaining button.
Then, with a hook of his fingers, he picked up the cover.
"Kang Bureau also said that I don't have to keep my hands, "Tang Detective 2" is full of potential and is expected to hit the record of film history, "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" can fight head-on with "Tang Detective 2", although it is still glorious!"
He said as he lowered his head and kissed it.
Sister Lin snorted lightly, touched the hair in front of her, and said calmly: "I see, Kang Yan is still too confident in "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace", obviously it is the schedule set by "Tang Detective 2" first, he has to choose the same day to be released." ”
"Let him be, I guess he's been deceived by someone else."
Fang Ziheng's lips twitched, and he said indistinctly.
The remarks on the Internet in the past few days, he has carefully analyzed, and they are absolutely abnormal.
The two movies are released at the same time, even if there is some competition, it will not be like water and fire, and it can be a win-win situation.
After all, "Tang Detective 2" and "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven" are two completely different themes.
Someone must be behind it!
He took the initiative to call Kang Yan in the morning, indicating Hengyu's position and not deliberately going against China Film and the Film Bureau.
Kang Yan said that he understood, but understanding was understanding, and he must have complained about Hengyu in his heart.
Come to think of it, that's what the people behind the scenes want.
It is really a good strategy to let Hengyu face up to China Film and the Film Bureau.
Fang Ziheng was too lazy to think about who was the black hand, and when the movie was released, everything would be revealed.
Instead of thinking about it, it is better to taste the big meat bun in front of you.
Delicious...
The big meat buns are so delicious!
It is white and large, fragrant and delicious, and full of elasticity.
No matter how the undercurrent of the outside world surges, it can't compare to the big meat bun in front of you.
