Chapter 725 Stupid PR Level!

After ending the conversation with Chen Fei, La Geikang rubbed his eyebrows in frustration.

In just two days, several meetings of various sizes have been held, which was undoubtedly a test for him.

In addition to handling company affairs, I also have to challenge those old die-hards, and my daily energy is simply not enough.

Even though those old guys are all over 60 years old, they have more energy than young people. Especially when they quarrel, they are like clockwork and tireless!

"Ladong, why don't you go back and take a rest first." The secretary on the side greeted him with concern.

"No, it's okay."

La Geokang shook his head, took a deep breath, and warned: "Tong Bureau's intention is already very obvious. This time, we must give an explanation to the outside world. No matter how many people object, it is useless. Public opinion cannot Violation.”

The secretary turned slightly and said, "Where are we?"

"Go and check the company's current projects. If you find any bad artists who have been involved in pornography, gambling and drug abuse, deal with them quickly and don't get caught."

"Okay, La Dong, I'll do it right away."

The secretary responded and quickly left the office.

At this time, La Geikang poured himself another cup of strong tea, then turned on the computer and read the email messages.

Universal Pictures has already finished the new script, and he is communicating with them about relevant actor news and some project preparation plans in the past few days.

In addition, director selection is also a top priority!

As a co-production, according to common sense, the director should choose a foreign director.

However, given that the results of Sino-foreign co-productions directed by foreign directors in recent years have been poor, Universal Pictures finally agreed to be directed by a Chinese director.

They gave three candidate suggestions, namely Chen Fei, Li Jian, and Zhang Yimou.

For La Geikang himself, he still prefers Chen Fei to direct, followed by Zhang Yimou, and finally Li Jian.

Universal Pictures has similar intentions, and its first choice is also Chen Fei.

Both parties are trying to figure out his plans, and what is currently being negotiated is how much director's salary should be given to him.

La Geokang supported Chen Fei to use the director's remuneration to participate in the investment and finally share the box office, but Universal Pictures was thinking of paying it all in one lump sum.

The two sides are currently at loggerheads over the matter.

Online discussions have been unable to reach an agreement, so Universal Pictures is going to send a representative over to sit down and have a good talk.

La Geikang has already decided. When the time comes, he will call Chen Fei over and let everyone have a good chat to see how they should be allocated.

As for whether Chen Fei would agree, he never thought about it at all.

Because in his opinion, Chen Fei had no reason to refuse!

Big investment, Chinese and foreign co-productions, sufficient director's remuneration...

Faced with such conditions, what reason did he have to refuse?

A new day has arrived quietly, and just when many people are still paying attention to the incident of Zhang Guoli's son entering the palace for the second time, the paparazzi suddenly come into force!

In less than half an hour, various tidbits about Xu Jinglei and Wu Yifan were on Weibo's hot searches, instantly suppressing the popularity of the former.

When the movie project was initially approved, many people already guessed that Xu Jinglei was going to let the old cow eat the young grass.

And now it turns out that she did just that!

Although both men and women spoke "angry" on Weibo, saying that this was purely slander, and that the paparazzi would be held legally responsible...

However, no matter how you look at it, there is a sense of powerlessness in that clarification statement.

Many fans outside the circle chose to deceive themselves and firmly believed that this was a publicity and hype for the upcoming movie "There's a Place Only We Know".

But people in the circle see it very clearly.

Xu Cairen finally got promoted from Oiran to Princess. He had served so many senior people before, so now he naturally had to find some benefits for himself.

"Dong dong dong!"

Chen Fei's meal was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

"Enter."

As soon as he finished speaking, the office door was slowly pushed open, and Jiang Xueruan walked in with a stack of information.

"Mr. Chen, the casting lists for several TV series have been finalized. Would you like to take a look?"

"Um."

Chen Fei nodded slightly, reached out to take the list, and looked down.

The first is "The Best of Us". In terms of lineup selection, the heroine is Tan Songyun, a contracted artist of Feiyinghuang Agency, and the male lead is also an artist Li Xian, who is contracted by the company.

As for the movie "Staying Together", because the producers wanted to choose their own actors, Chen Fei didn't know most of the people in it, and some of them had even never heard of their names.

Putting these two pieces of information aside, Chen Fei looked at the casting list for "Ode to Joy".

Liu Tao, Jiang Xin, Wang Ziwen, Yang Zi, Qiao Xin...

It’s still the familiar 5-person protagonist lineup.

Although several of them have their own controversies, in terms of acting skills, they are undoubtedly qualified.

"Okay, just them...huh?"

Chen Fei was just about to nod, but suddenly, he found a very impressive name in the cast.

Yin Xiaotian?

What shocked him was that there were four words following the name.

"Internal campaign!"

He knew very well what these four words meant, which meant that Yin Xiaotian actually joined Feiyinghuang Agency!

"When did he join the company?"

Looking at the name on Chen Fei's finger, Jiang Xuerou was slightly startled. After thinking about it carefully, he replied: "It seems to have been more than a month. His acting skills are very good. When he auditioned for this role, others also participated. No one can compete with him.”

Chen Fei nodded slightly, his eyes slightly complicated.

How could the people who could be targeted by the cultists be ordinary people?

I think back then, before he was targeted, Yin Xiaotian was a stable first-line artist.

It's a pity that things change and people change. Without a good backing, he was still unable to withstand the oppression of the Sword Sect's followers.

After feeling secretly in his heart, Chen Fei handed the list back to Jiang Xueran: "Okay, that's it, let's announce it."

"Okay, Mr. Chen."

Jiang Xueru responded, turned and left Chen Fei's office.

When it comes to work efficiency, there is no bad person in Feiyue Film and Television.

It has just reached noon, and news about the three TV series recently planned by Feiyue Film and Television has spread to the Internet and successfully dominated the headlines.

"Following "White Nights," "A Thousand Bones," "Red Sorghum," and "Nirvana in Fire," Feiyue Films is about to start filming a new TV series again."

"As of now, the three TV series projects of "The Best of Us", "Born Together" and "Ode to Joy" have officially completed the casting process."

"Yin Xiaotian, a victim of the Knife-inserting Cult, announced that he has officially joined the Feiyinghuang Agency. He hopes that he can concentrate on filming in the future instead of worrying all day long..."

…

Looking at the news about Feiyue Film and Television, although the reactions of various film and television companies are different, without exception, they are all filled with envy.

"White Night" is a hit all over the world, and "A Thousand Bones" is not only a hit all over China, it even gave Zhao Liying 30 million fans!

As for the upcoming "Red Sorghum" and "Nirvana in Fire", they have become the targets and objects that many TV stations are chasing.

Under such circumstances, Feiyue Film and Television’s profits have skyrocketed!

And now, they have launched three more TV series projects, and they also involve the most popular themes such as youth, workplace, and friendship.

If nothing else, these are three high-quality TV drama projects!

"They have made all the money, so it's okay to monopolize high-quality film projects. Now they have begun to monopolize high-quality TV drama projects. How can this make sense?"

On the Tang people's side, Cai Yinong's eyes were almost red with envy.

I think back then, when Tang people were following Feiyue Film and Television, they were making a lot of money.

Unfortunately, time has passed and the two parties have now completely severed ties and become rivals.

She missed that time very much and had imagined that she could go back to that time, but this was obviously a wishful thinking.

"Mr. Cai, please take a look at the list of actors drawn up by the company. If they are suitable, I will contact them."

The secretary's words pulled Cai Yinong back from her wandering mind.

She turned slightly, took the list of fixed roles from the secretary, and read it carefully.

In the mainland film and television industry, there are relatively few works with the theme of group portraits of teenagers, and even fewer works with sports themes as the main theme, especially football-themed works.

Therefore, Cai Yinong hopes to fill this gap by producing such a work and respond to the "campus football" policy promoted by the above.

With the help of screenwriter Bai Yicong, "Tornado Eleven" was officially formed.

In the cast list, most of the characters appearing are artists contracted by Tang Dynasty, such as Jiang Shuying, Chen Yao, Lai Yumeng, etc.

However, only the name "Hu Ge" is marked behind the male protagonist "Mu Qi".

Cai Yinong frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice: "Who decided on the role of Hu Ge?"

The secretary was shocked and said quickly: "The screenwriter Bai Yicong said that the character of Mucci was designed by him based on the combination of German national team coach Loew and Hugo. It would be best if he could be invited to play the male lead. "

Hearing this, Cai Yinong's heart moved.

Different from the conflict between Tang Dynasty and Liu Shishi, Hu Ge terminated the contract and left normally. Although there were some unpleasantness between the two parties, there was still a bit of love between them.

If she calls and invites Hu Ge in person, there should be some hope.

You know, Hu Ge has attracted a lot of attention in the ancient puppet theater market this year. If he can be invited, he will definitely attract a lot of attention to "Tornado Eleven".

Thinking of this, Cai Yinong immediately made a decision in his heart.

She handed the list back to the secretary and ordered: "You go and contact other people first, Hu Ge, I will communicate with him personally."

…

In the afternoon, the official blog of "We Will Meet Again" announced a piece of news, saying that the movie's potential has been exhausted and it will be officially removed from shelves today.

For a time, many people focused on its box office performance.

And when they saw the box office result of 615 million, many people's eyes lit up!

There is no doubt that the movie was a huge hit at the box office.

And because of the good reputation of the film, Han Han has successfully established a foothold in the film industry.

Comparatively speaking, the controversy over Guo Jingming's side is much greater, and because of his high-profile nature, he has suffered a lot of criticism and criticism.

However, just when a large number of netizens on the Internet are discussing who is the leading figure among young writer-directors, Guo Jingming or Han Han, a piece of "gossip" from a certain media has caused huge criticism on the entire Internet. !

The source said: "Ke Zhendong, a popular young boy in Wanwan Province, followed in the footsteps of Gao Hui and Zhang Mo. He was arrested in the capital after being reported by the people in Chaoyang!"

The source also said that the relevant interrogation has ended and is now waiting for official official notification.

As soon as this news came out, there was an uproar on the Internet!

Unlike "powerful" actors such as Gao Rui and Zhang Mo, Ke Zhendong is currently a top-notch actor in the niche.

Since "Girls We Chased Together" became a hit, and with the release of the "Tiny Times" trilogy, he has now accumulated a large number of fans.

And the most important thing is that more than 80% of these fans are idiot fans.

Faced with slander from the outside world, fans will naturally not sit still and wait.

Less than half an hour after the news appeared, a large number of idiot fans appeared on Weibo and other portals, and posted various evidence to support Ke Zhendong, saying that he was not in the capital at present, so there was no talk of being arrested. One word?

What's more, some even started doxxing the media that broke the news, claiming that they would sue the media until it goes bankrupt!

However, just when fans spontaneously spoke for Ke Zhendong, the agency behind him issued a statement saying: "Ke Zhendong is currently out of contact, and the company is currently unable to respond to online public opinion..."

As soon as this reply came out, it was obvious what it meant!

"This level of public relations is so stupid."

Looking at the news on the Internet, Chen Fei curled his lips with disdain.

As a public figure, how could Hao Duanrui be out of touch?

And with the response from his agency, everyone in the industry has already guessed it. If nothing else happens, this "grapevine" should be unmistakable.

Because if this kind of thing is false, the person involved will definitely stand up and clarify it as soon as possible. How could it be possible to let public opinion ferment?

That is, only when the person concerned is locked up will states such as "lost contact" and "unable to respond" appear.

In just a few days, several similar incidents have been discovered in the circle.

Under such circumstances, the situation of those members of companies or associations who oppose the "comprehensive ban on bad artists" is undoubtedly very embarrassing.

If they don't seal it, then they will do whatever they want and ban it repeatedly, which will not serve as a lesson at all.

Chen Fei called La Geikang again and asked directly: "La Dong, is this thrust enough now?"

"That's almost it." La Geikang said with a heavy tone, "I went to have another meeting this morning. If nothing else, this should be the last one."

"Haha, then I'll wait for the good news."

At this moment, Chen Fei felt like he was setting aside the clouds and seeing the sun.

After working hard for so long and withstanding so much pressure, I am finally going to see results.

"Alas!" La Geikang was not as happy as Chen Fei, but sighed: "It's just pity that Zhang Guoli and Chen Long, the two tiger fathers, actually raised two stinky poisonous insects."

Chen Fei's expression was very calm. He had obviously expected it, but he deliberately pretended to be a little surprised in his tone: "Is it possible that even the prince..."

"Yes." La Geikang sighed again: "I won't say anything more. You will know tomorrow. The police will issue a notice."

…

In a blink of an eye, time came to August 15th.

At the same time, the summer vacation has also entered the last half month, which is also the most tragic stage.

On this day alone, nine new movies are released simultaneously!

This includes Xiying's "The Legend of Swordsman" and four imported films: "Frozen", "The Last Days of Pompeii", "The King of the Jungle", "Tom Yum Goong 2"...

In a week's time, there will be many new movies released, such as "The Finale" and "Insect Story".

At the same time, "Transformers 4" and "Guardians of the Galaxy" are currently in theaters.

Obviously, the second half of this summer season will not be too easy. If nothing goes wrong, at least more than 2/3 of the films will inevitably become cannon fodder and be pulled off the production line early.

On a normal day, this fierce "battle situation" would definitely attract the attention of most people in the film and television industry.

However, a notice issued by the public security system this morning directly attracted the attention of the entire film and television industry.

Moreover, the content of this announcement far exceeds the violations of laws and disciplines committed by all domestic actors in the first half of this year!

The main reason is that the criminal's "biological father" is too famous!

Not only famous domestically, but also famous internationally!

As soon as the notice appeared, it quickly spread throughout the mainland and spread at the speed of light to places such as Xiangjiang, Macau, and Wanwan.

Even Japan, South Korea, Singapore... and even Hollywood were informed of the news immediately.

The content of the report is very detailed, and there is also a complete video of the arrest.

Moreover, when the two men were arrested, about 110 grams of inventory was seized from their residence!

Even the entire interrogation video was released. In the evidence regarding accommodation, supply, transportation and other crimes, both of them confessed.

This announcement came too suddenly!

When it was exposed, the long-accumulated anger of netizens finally couldn't be restrained, and it rose to the sky like a raging fire!

On the other hand, the entire film and television industry has fallen into deep despair at this time.

Countless people are trembling, fearing that they will be implicated, thus cutting off the entertainment industry's channel for making money.

As for those film and television agency bosses and film and television association members who had previously strongly opposed the ban on bad artists, they had a very ominous premonition in their hearts at this moment!

"It's over, it's completely over!"

Inside Huayi Company, Wang Zhonglei's face was pale and full of despair!

If the system of banning bad artists is officially implemented, then Huayi will be at least half ruined!
