Rise of the Wasteland

Chapter 357: It's Over

No matter where they are, people in the entertainment industry must have some background and influence to climb up slowly. The entertainment industry seems to be full of glory and luxury, but under the influence of huge interests, everyone in the industry has sharp teeth and can bite off a piece of meat from others at any time.

Director Wan Caidan Wan is a man with fangs and sharp teeth. He is one of the few great directors of literary and artistic films in China. In the early days, he gained government support by promoting domestic culture to the Western world. But now he gets support from abroad by promoting Western culture at home.

However, as a major director with a certain international reputation, Wan Caidan has been a little restless in recent days. Out of anger, he decided to take Victor Hugo down, but only after he did it did he feel scared.

Director Wan used his connections to get several groups of paparazzi and private detectives, but he soon discovered that Zhou Qingfeng was not an easy person to deal with.

Now everyone knows that Victor Hugo's identity and the origin of the "Wasteland" movie are extremely mysterious, and this mystery is the greatest value of this movie.

The friendly cooperation between Victor Hugo and the Shanghai Film Festival has greatly enhanced the international image of Shanghai. The Shanghai government also reciprocated, boldly giving Victor Hugo the greatest degree of freedom. At the very least, we will no longer intentionally investigate the identity behind him, and we will not allow others to investigate indiscriminately. This is tantamount to giving Zhou Qingfeng an invisible amulet from the government.

Facing this invisible amulet, Director Wan's investigation was in trouble. However, the more glamorous Victor Hugo was, the more enemies he made. The three male stars in the star variety show quickly contacted him, hoping to join forces to trip up their opponents.

This alliance went quite smoothly, but when it was about to succeed, director Wan suddenly got a cryptic message from a friend: In recent days, someone has been collecting black materials about him, all about his advocacy of Western liberal ideas, such as' Color revolution' or something.

Director Wan was taken aback by this news, and he immediately realized that something was wrong: I was investigating others, and others were also investigating me!

But it was a bit late to wake up. Director Wan hadn't figured out how to deal with it before the police found him. The charge is simple - prostitution.

"What is prostitution? Prostitution in the literary and art world is not prostitution. This is called seeking artistic inspiration. We are all dedicating ourselves to art. Those of you who don't understand art are of low quality.

I want to find your chief, let your chief come. I am an internationally renowned director, and I even know the ministers of the imperial capital. I want to see my lawyer, and I want reporters to report on your brutal law enforcement. People all over the country will know that you police oppress free artists. "

Wan Caidan was very violent at the beginning, struggling desperately during the arrest process, his wrist was scratched by the handcuffs, and he yelled at the police to use violence.

During the escort process, he himself had a heart attack, and he was short of breath due to chest tightness, so he had to be hospitalized for examination. He did end up in the hospital—the infirmary of the detention facility.

"I want to see my lawyer, I want to see my friends, I want to see the media, and I must tell the whole world about your barbaric acts." After staying in the detention center for several days, Wan Caidan still hated Scolding non-stop.

This simple detention center is the worst place Director Wan has ever lived in. The claustrophobic cell, the locked iron door, the cold air, and the toilet is just in the corner. Occasionally, there is a noise because the detainees next door are crying and howling. Going to the infirmary for check-ups every day is the most comfortable time for Director Wan.

Seeing Wan Caidan appear, the doctor in the infirmary smiled and threw out a stack of newspapers, "No, your news has been reported. Your friends all jumped out to support you and protested solemnly, saying that they would not Stand by and watch. The Directors Association also expressed the hope that the police will conduct a fair investigation."

Wan Caidan flipped through the newspaper and was overjoyed, "The public opinion is already reporting, why don't you let me go quickly? The police must apologize to me and compensate me for the damage to my reputation and spirit. You are arbitrarily detaining a well-known artist like this." It's not right."

But the doctor still laughed, and the laughter became more and more serious, "The Magic City International Film Festival is over, and the media all over the world have shifted their attention to other aspects. I heard from my superiors that now is the time to solve your problem." question."

This tone of voice is not a good sign, Director Wan unconsciously swallowed nervously. He noticed that the newspapers were dated a few days ago, and asked, "Is there no recent newspaper?"

"There is no news about you in the recent newspapers. It seems to me that you no longer exist." The doctor still smiled. He took out his mobile phone and clicked on a video for Director Wan to watch: "I think you may Should see this."

The video shows Victor Hugo winning the "Best Actor" at the Shanghai International Film Festival, but when he received the trophy from the older generation of artists, the audience gave warm applause.

Wan Caidan felt cold when he saw this scene, which means that his previous efforts were ineffective at all, and he might even... "No, it's impossible! I did it very covertly, and I didn't even hire paparazzi to show up. Tell someone else to do it. I can't get involved in this matter anyway."

But the doctor talked about a few other things, "Jiang Dawei was recently blocked by the mainland for his remarks on Hong Kong independence. Moreover, he was involved in a case of rape of a female movie fan, and he has already been arrested."

"Sheng Dongfang was reported by the people of Chaoyang District for gathering people to take drugs, and he was also sent to the detention center. At least he will have to collect soap for a year or so."

"Wang Donglin took the initiative to explain his tax evasion in recent years. It is estimated that he can get a lenient punishment, but a heavy fine is indispensable."

Every time the doctor said something, Wan Caidan's heart beat wildly. These are the fucking people who conspired with him against Victor Hugo, and they all ended up ruined. For stars, this is the most ruthless trick.

"I..., what about me?" Wan Caidan's lips were trembling non-stop. He didn't think about friends, lawyers, and compensation. He subconsciously felt that he was about to face a catastrophe.

The three male stars are all unlucky, so Wan Caidan, the mastermind, can escape. The current situation makes it clear that the scandal of framing Victor Hugo is not pursued, but the crime is dug out from other angles, so as to prevent the domestic film and television industry from being affected by the scandal and being hit.

However, the punishment will not be light.

"Your problem is still unclear, and the police are also investigating. It is said that you have received foreign funds and disrupted domestic order. It is quite serious. It is estimated that when you finish your sentence in prison, your life will almost come to an end."

After the doctor finished speaking, he just finished checking Wan Caidan's body. He laughed and said, "Okay, your body has some hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia, but the problem is not serious. Prison life can definitely cure these diseases. I can assure you that it is more effective than any medicine. !"

Wan Caidan felt like he was finished! (To be continued.)
