Chapter 1035: Broken Capital Chain, Zhang Yimou's Questioning

It has to be said that "A Chinese Odyssey" is indeed a super IP, and Liu Zhenwei has eaten this IP to death.

Just early in the morning, the large-scale ancient costume mythological love drama "A Chinese Odyssey: Love You for Ten Thousand Years" was launched on the "Internet" with great fanfare.

Liu Zhenwei personally directed it, and the promotional drafts were bought everywhere on the Internet. In addition, the top star Huang Zitao played Zhizunbao and Sun Wukong, and "Yuan Hua" Yin Zheng played Jin Chanzi and Tang Monk...

With the blessing of multiple traffic, it was overwhelming and almost known to everyone on the Internet; those who didn't know thought that Zhou Xingchi was going to play Zhizunbao again.

Well, let's not say it, Liu Zhenwei did praise Huang Zitao in front of the media;

He said that the latter's audition effect was completely comparable to Zhou Xingchi's "A Chinese Odyssey", and even performed new ideas and contributed surprises!

"I've figured it out. If you want to make money, you have to be shameless. At least you have to be able to swallow your pride. Just like this 'big director' Liu Zhenwei, did he insult Zhou Xingchi or himself?"

On the first day of the release of "Lu Yao Zhi Mali", Zhu Yawen came to visit the set. She leaned against the door frame of the dressing room and teased Liu Zhenwei.

In the dressing room, Liu Yifei, who had just finished her nightclub scene in a uniform, was removing her makeup, and Lin Nan was handing her a towel.

Ning Hao, Xing Aina, Shen Teng and others were all in a lazy state, lying on a row of canvas chairs a few meters away to rest and gossip together.

"Who do you care who he insulted? It's about making money, licking the top fans, it's not shabby. Besides, hasn't Liu Zhenwei always been like this in recent years? He said before that Han Geng's Zhizunbao would also become a classic."

Liu Yifei took the towel and wiped her face. Lin Nan turned around and joked with a smile.

"Without box office appeal, he can't make art films. If you don't let others make money by remaking old things, how can he survive? He's even shooting a TV series, haha...

Oh, by the way, it seems that "A Chinese Odyssey 3" will be released in two months. I don't know if it will continue to lose money this time?" Ning Hao couldn't help but tease.

"You're overthinking it. Liu Zhenwei has a lot of money. Although his movies have been terrible in recent years, he is a major shareholder of Zedong Pictures, and many big-name actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan have film and television contracts there."

"Wang Jiawei's company?"

"Yes, that one."

Lin Nan nodded. These people have benefited too much from the times. The Hong Kong circle was too prosperous in those years, and all the companies of big directors were big companies!

"Well, if you hadn't said it, I would have forgotten it. It's true. The big directors' alliance!" Ning Hao realized it later and reacted.

Shen Teng, Guo Jingfei and others couldn't get a word in about the gossip of these big directors in the industry. They could only smile and support them on the side.

Not long after, around 11:30, all the main creative staff changed into casual summer clothes, and everyone left the backstage area of ​​the crew and got into their cars.

Because the start time in the afternoon will be after 4 o'clock, everyone can go out for lunch at noon.

However, just as Lin Nan and Liu Yifei fastened their seat belts, the assistant of Hongxingwu hurried over and knocked on the car window:

"Sister Yifei, the company called and said that several TV stations have arrived, but they didn't make an appointment before, and they didn't say it was today..."

Liu Yifei didn't take the assistant's phone, but looked at Lin Nan inquiringly. It was about the broadcast rights of "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms".

"Is Director Jiang in Hongxingwu now?"

"Not in the company, he should have been receiving the Mango TV stations, but the dinner party shouldn't have started yet." The assistant answered immediately.

"Go and notify Director Jiang now, and then bring these people over, she will take care of it. There are too many wolves and too little meat, which is just conducive to "competition." Lin Nan thought and gave a solution.

"Let's do it this way, go." Liu Yifei nodded in agreement.

A dozen seconds later, several high-end commercial vehicles sped away and headed straight for the private restaurant.

…

It has been spread in the circle that a third-tier artist has offended Yang Ying and Huang Xiaoming;

And the woman’s studio has also passed on the message, and the meaning is obvious.

This “easy task” was quickly spread and spread through Huang Xiaoming’s network of relationships, connecting most of the capital in the film and television industry, and the latter sold their faces and almost all responded...

Linnan Films.

After Yue Jun hung up the phone, he couldn’t help but reveal a trace of contempt on his face.

He really didn’t expect that Yang Ying would call in person, and in her words, she was “asking” for favors in the name of the couple.

“Director Yue, how do we deal with this kind of thing? It seems that the actor also starred in Director Guo’s “Time Traveler” as a supporting role.” The assistant was also watching the fun with a smile on the side. This kind of thing hasn’t happened in the circle for a long time.

"It's not a big deal, he's just an actor, it's not like our company wants to ban him."

"Then what?"

"Give Huang Xiaoming some face. Besides, there are so many actors in the industry, countless second-tier and even more third-tier actors, one more or one less won't make a difference, whoever is used won't matter?"

Yue Jun's words were very objective, there was no need to refute Huang Xiaoming's face for a third-tier artist who didn't have many connections. Just pretend that you didn't know there was such an artist, and not taking the initiative to embarrass him or add insult to injury is the greatest kindness of a bystander.

"Don't you need to talk to Director Jiang and Director Lin again?" the assistant reminded.

"One of them is busy helping Red Star Wood negotiate the copyright of the TV series, and the other is busy filming. There is no need to bother them with such trivial matters. It is a complete waste of time and energy."

Yue Jun waved his hand and said casually. In his opinion, this is a very insignificant matter.

"Director Yue, then I will give the order like this?"

"Well, let's do it. We will not take the initiative to embarrass him, nor will we add insult to injury. If he comes for an audition... we will ignore him implicitly...

He is also unlucky. He happened to offend a woman, and she is a woman who is bullying others."

...

The night scene last night took a long time to shoot, so I really couldn't get out of bed this morning.

Then Lin Nan and Ning Hao, two big men, hummed and hawed on the phone for a while, and then they hit it off: notify the executive director to take a temporary holiday for the morning!

When Lin Nan tiptoed back to the room and got into bed, ready to embrace the beauty, the damn phone vibrated again.

Well, this time Director Lin was kicked off the bed by Liu Yifei, and she was dissatisfied with a slightly nasal tone.

"I say, Director Wang, you don't do things like this! How many times have you called early in the morning? It's not bad at all..." Lying on the sofa, Lin Nan's mood for getting up was ignited.

"Sleep, sleep, sleep, how can you sleep so much at such a young age?"

"It's because you are young that you sleep more. If I really waited until your age, I would want to sleep, but my physical condition would not allow it, so I would be old." Lin Nan directly retorted that the elderly sleep less.

"I'm only in my early fifties, what's old about me?"

"If you have anything to say, just tell me quickly, so that I can go back to sleep. The scene last night was filmed until two in the morning." While urging, Lin Nan couldn't help yawning again.

"There is a rumor about LeTV. You can't even imagine that a listed company with a market value of tens of billions of yuan has a broken capital chain! How serious is the fraud to break the capital chain?"

Instantly, Lin Nan woke up, "News from the CSRC investigation team?"

"No announcement has been made, but... the news is absolutely true. This matter spreads very quickly in the circle.

For a listed company with a market value of tens of billions of yuan to have a broken capital chain, it means that the financial fraud has lasted for a long time, and the scale of the fraud must be very large... The CSRC should have started to investigate back now..."

After more than ten minutes, Lin Nan hung up Wang Changtian's phone. He was no longer sleepy at all, so he sat up and flipped through the news online.

Sure enough, as Lao Wang said, the related hot searches were being withdrawn and suppressed. The previous second, Lin Nan saw the related news about LeTV on the hot search list, and the next second it was replaced by movie information.

Yesterday, "Lu Yao Zhi Mali" and "The Fast and the Furious" were released on the first day, and today's data closed at 33.4 million and 15.68 million respectively.

"Big Fish and Begonia" and "Cold War 2" were slightly affected, with daily closings falling to 23.11 million and 26.46 million, but it seems that they will rebound later because they still have a lot of stamina.

Only "Rock and Roll Tibetan Mastiff" is dead, and the daily box office performance of 860,000 is as "glaring" as a pile of feces, disgusting Huayi!

For a whole morning, although there was no news about LeTV on the Internet, everyone in the circle who should know it knew it without exception!

Especially the more than 20 celebrity shareholders of LeTV Pictures who are now LeTV's shareholders, and they are shareholders after the increase of holdings. These people are already completely ants on the hot pot.

In just two or three hours, everyone was anxiously contacting Zhang Zhao. If one call didn't work, they would call the second, third, and fourth... Some people even wanted to go straight to the LeTV building.

"Still can't get through? Still on the line?"

Chen Ting looked at Zhang Yimou, whose face was full of wrinkles, extremely pale and ugly, and seemed as cold as ice, and asked in a low voice.

A busy tone came out from the latter's phone: Please don't hang up, the number you dialed is on the line...

This sentence has been repeated for more than an hour. Director Zhang and she have also listened to it for more than an hour!

"That's so many years, all the wealth is in it..." Zhang Yimou murmured tremblingly, as if he had no backbone, and his spirit and state were a little wrong.

"Don't think too much, maybe it's not as serious as we think. Such a large listed company can't have big problems..."

Chen Ting saw it and suddenly felt anxious. She was really worried that Zhang Yimou might have mental problems. After all, he was not young anymore and had three children.

At this moment, Director Zhang had closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and veins bulged on both sides of his forehead... His mind was full of memories of these years:

He had cooperated with Zhang Weiping for more than ten years, and he had been deceived for more than ten years; after the breakup, he was fought over by many investors in the industry, and only then did he truly know his own value;

He carefully selected and finally determined a new partner. He originally thought that he could hold shares and make movies smoothly and well in the future, but this happened again today!

"Director Zhang? I'm sorry, there are too many rumors outside today. I have been dealing with them all morning and have not had the opportunity to answer your call..."

Suddenly, the call on the mobile phone was connected, and Zhang Zhao's voice came from the other end!

Zhang Zhao's greeting and laughter were undoubtedly a ray of light in the darkness for Zhang Yimou and Chen Ting at this moment, a ray of life and hope when they were suffocating.

"Mr. Zhang, is the rumor outside true or false? Will my shares be affected?"

Without the calmness and composure of the past, Zhang Yimou grabbed the phone like a life-saving straw and asked directly. There was still a slight tremor in his voice, but it was obvious that he himself should not have noticed it, and he was only concerned about LeTV.
