Entering the Chinese entertainment industry is like entering a deep sea

Chapter 564 Smoke Bombs and Inside Information
The reputation of "White Snake" has dropped to freezing point, and you can't cover it up even if you give iPhone Plus to the media.

“The worst movie ever!”

"I felt like throwing up after watching it for less than three minutes!"

Legal Evening News

"Legend of the White Snake" encountered online trolls, and investors were dissatisfied with the reputation being tarnished!"

"I'm going to go back and study Thick Black Theory, and then make a comeback!"

"Recently, Yang Zi, an investor of "Legend of the White Snake" who is attending the Busan Film Festival in South Korea, claimed on Weibo that the film has been frequently attacked maliciously recently, and he plans to stop the film project at hand and focus on studying the art of thick black, and become a hero who fights against crime."

"It is said that it has stopped all the film projects that have not been established, and the film projects that have been established, such as "Pili Detective", "On the Road" and "White Snake 2", may be shelved depending on the situation."

"However, an employee of Yang's company revealed to the reporter: "We have not received any clear notice that any film project has been shelved. I guess the boss is just speaking out of anger."

Before the release, Yoko even said: "I hope all the films released during this period will be big sellers! Together we will make the Chinese film market bigger."

It was like the tone of Mr. Han Sanye, the head of China Film Group.

But in the face of the fierce competition during the National Day holiday, friendship first is nothing more than wishful thinking and a smokescreen thrown by Yangzi.

He also wanted to defeat "Chinese Police" and "Painted Skin".

It’s just that the former is limited by the fact that the producer includes China Film and has the advantage of the subject matter.

The latter's strength in media resources is not comparable to that of his makeshift team, Juli Pictures.

The negative information about "Painted Skin" on the Internet is nothing more than Xiaoyanzi's old jealousy and the affairs between Chen Kun and his son. Yangzi simply can't grasp the main point.

As a result, "Painted Skin" came from behind and surpassed "White Snake", and the box office on the 10th reached 1.3 million yuan together with "White Snake".

The box office of "Chinese Police" is just one step away from 9 million.

It is only a matter of time before the record of "Charlotte's Troubles" is broken. Now the industry is concerned about whether "Chinese Police" can break the box office record created by "Avatar" in the mainland.

The third season of "The Voice of China" ended before National Day, and Li Chen didn't like any of the newcomers that emerged.

All he lacks now is a male singer with the voice and vocal range to support the hit singles in Europe and the United States like Deng Ziqi.

The championships of the four groups and the overall championship were all won by Guangguang and Blueberry.

This greatly disappointed the newcomers. Who doesn’t hope to marry into the Li family one day?

Wang Changtian and Blueberry's deputy director gathered at Splendid Diamonds.

Blueberry TV hopes that Deng Ziqi and Yu Kewei, who are under Li Chen and were former students of "The Voice of China", can participate in Blueberry TV's New Year's Eve concert at the end of the year.

In Li Chen's office, Wang Changtian and the second-in-command of Blueberry Station were both in high spirits.

The third season of "The Voice of China" raked in more than 12 billion yuan, and Rongchen Pictures, one of the three major producers, was of course the biggest beneficiary.

But Guangxian and Blueberry still have a considerable profit.

"Director Li, Zhongtai hopes..." Seeing Li Chen's indifferent expression, the deputy director of Blueberry Channel wanted to put on the director's airs.

Before he could finish his words, Li Chen raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Mr. Zhou, you guys go and discuss this matter with Yang Siwei. I don't care about the artists' affairs." Li Chen said with a smile.

Wang Changtian sat aside and sipped his tea silently.

He secretly laughed at the second-in-command of Blueberry TV who wanted to use the director's title to scare his younger brother, but he really made a wrong calculation.

No wonder he is second in command.

"Okay." Zhou Yu forced a smile, sighing in his heart that Scorpion Poop is truly unique.

It was the young man in front of him. Otherwise, even if Wang Changtian saw him, he would not have spoken so harshly.

But now Blueberry Channel can no longer do without Rongchen Pictures, and the reform of radio and television is imperative. Mango TV has pioneered the weekly drama model.

Several popular productions such as "Meteor Shower 3", "Palace 2" and "Xuan-Yuan Sword" are said to be about to be launched.

Although Blueberry has surpassed Mango in prime time because of two variety shows produced by Rongchen Pictures.

However, in the field of TV dramas, if it were to compete independently with Mango TV without the strong support of Rongchen Pictures, it would inevitably be a bit overwhelmed.

Although Blueberry TV has won the first broadcast rights of "Empresses in the Palace" at a high price of 150 million per episode, "Empresses in the Palace" will premiere on Blueberry TV in one month.

Sun Li is pregnant, and Zhen Huan is not included in the promotion of "Empresses in the Palace".

This cast a shadow over the show from top to bottom on Blueberry Station.

"Director Li, I heard that Rongchen Films is planning to shoot a big production about Zhejiang businessmen?"

Li Chen smiled and said, "I couldn't hide it from you guys after all. Yes, I'm already negotiating contracts with some of the actors."

"Haha. This is a good thing. If you need help from the station, please don't hesitate to ask for help, Director Li."

"Even the first broadcast rights, the station can still buy out the price of 150 million per episode."

Wang Changtian was a little surprised when these words came out. This was almost equivalent to a gambling-style guaranteed buyout, but he soon felt relieved.

Although I haven't read the script and haven't decided on the actors, I am only interested in the fact that the subject matter is about "Zhejiang businessmen".

It is no exaggeration for Blueberry TV, as the host, to be so attentive.

What's more, the two variety shows and several previous dramas of "Dream of Red Mansions" also made a lot of money for Blueberry TV.

But what they didn't expect was that Li Chen did not agree on the spot.

"Well, thank you, Mr. Zhou, for your kindness. Please also thank Mr. Zhong for me."

"Let's not talk about that today. This project is still in the planning stage, and no one can predict what the final result will be."

"Okay. But Director Li must let the station see it first after the filming. After all, we are the closest partners."

"No problem." Li Chen agreed readily this time.

The three parties signed a contract for the fourth season of "The Voice of China" and sent Zhou Yuqiang away.

Wang Changtian and Li Chen spoke without any reservations.

"Brother, Blueberry TV is feeling the pressure. I have to admit that Mango TV's planning and operation capabilities are indeed much better than Blueberry TV."

"The Happy Family members are really good at marketing themselves."

Li Chen poured Wang Changtian a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Let's not talk about them. It's you, brother, who almost beat Yangzi to tears. You are worthy of being the ancestor of millions of navy soldiers."

"Hahaha, brother, I don't recognize this title. What does it have to do with me?" Wang Changtian said he didn't admit it, but he was obviously very pleased.

Just mentioning Yang Zi, Wang Changtian was obviously disdainful: "He is just a new soldier, and he wants to eat at the table?"

Seeing that Wang Changtian was a little arrogant, Li Chen said to him, "Don't underestimate this man. Although he doesn't have much talent, he is a good actor. Don't think he is really afraid of you."

Wang Changtian smiled contemptuously: "He is about to stop all projects, how can he still turn the tables?"

"Hahaha, man, you are too naive. Do you really think he stopped the project because he was afraid of you and me?"

"What do you mean? Is there something else going on?"

"Just wait and see, the reason may soon come to light."

"You're still keeping me in suspense. Fine, I'll see what more trouble he can come up with!"

Wang Changtian felt a strange feeling when he saw the pointed look in the eyes of his brother.

It was as if I had taken off all my clothes and stood in front of him, as if no secrets could be hidden from him. Li Chen spoke very quickly, indeed very quickly.

In the past two days, the Weibo post of Teddy Sisters member Huo Siyan tearing up the "Little Swallow" became the focus of hot searches.

A Weibo post criticizing a certain female celebrity for using her fat ex-husband to hype herself up was directed at another female artist named Huang.

That is Huang Yi, the leading female role in "The Female Hero - Qiu Jin" which will be released nationwide on the 13th.

The quarrel between the two on Weibo dominated the hot searches for a whole week.

The two people, who originally had few opportunities to show up on portal websites, now frequently appear on the headlines of portal websites.

As the seventh sister in the Teddy Sisters Group, Yang Mi has been put on the spot by Yang Siwei. She should just watch the show and not rush into anything.

Ever since Yang Mi finished filming Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, she and Huo Siyan have become sisters, and the two interact frequently on Weibo.

But all this could not compare to the explosive news about another Miss Huang, Huang Shengyi, the leading actress of "White Snake".

Sina Entertainment News

"Huang Shengyi was rumored to be pregnant and got married quickly, and Yangzi was furious: She doesn't have time to have a baby!"

"Yesterday, the reporter received news that Hong Kong media reported that Huang Shengyi was preparing for a flash marriage because she was pregnant. The man was suspected to be the Hong Kong actor Lin Feng, who had just worked with her on "Legend of the White Snake."

"The news also said that Yoko was furious after hearing the news and stopped filming the next movie starring the two, "The Detective."

"The reporter immediately connected with Yoko, who was attending the Canton Fair in Guangzhou, and Cui Baozhu, the producer of "Pili Detective". Yoko said the news was nonsense and Huang Shengyi's schedule had been scheduled until July next year."

Wang Changtian suddenly realized what was going on and immediately called Li Chen.

"Brother, how do you know about Huang Shengyi and Lin Feng?"

Lao Wang considers himself an octopus in the entertainment industry, but he never knows as much gossip as Rongchen Pictures and Yixin Media.

"What Huang Shengyi and Lin Feng? What's going on between Huang Shengyi and Lin Feng?"

Li Chen was confused by Wang Changtian's questions.

"Didn't you read the news? Hong Kong media broke the news that Huang Shengyi and Lin Feng were pregnant and were going to get married? That guy stopped the production of Huang Shengyi and Lin Feng's "Pili Detective"."

"What? Huang Shengyi and Lin Feng got married so quickly? And she's pregnant?" Li Chen's laughter was full of disbelief and ridicule.

"How is this possible? I didn't expect Yangzi to play so coquettishly. This Lin Feng is too wronged."

Wang Changtian had heard that this brother really didn't know about Huang Shengyi and Lin Feng.

"So what did you mean that day?"

"Humph, Huang Shengyi is indeed pregnant, but the culprit is not this Lin Feng."

"Don't forget, my friend, that Yoko and Song Zude used to use this trick of calling a horse a zebra."

"This move was really clever. It not only cleared up the scandal between him and Huang Shengyi, but also stopped Huang Shengyi's drama."

"I guess his next step must be to have Huang Shengyi secretly give birth abroad, and then make up an excuse, saying that Huang Shengyi is filming abroad, and occasionally post some photos that have been taken long ago as status updates."

Wang Changtian laughed loudly: "If that's true, brother, how do you know so clearly, did you secretly subdue Zhuo Wei?"

Li Chen secretly complained in his heart, do I still need to subdue him? He even knows some of the gossips in the circle better than the parties involved.

"Why, do you want me to expose some more gossip about you?"

Wang Changtian's mouth closed instantly: "This joke is not funny at all, so stop it, I won't ask any more questions."

"Well, I think my tentacles are in every corner of the entertainment industry, but when it comes to you, I have to admit defeat."

"Too bad, there is no solid evidence, otherwise I would have taught Yangzi a lesson!"

Li Chen laughed and said, "How can you prove this, unless you can get the other party's production certificate?"

"Don't worry, you can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it forever."

"Humph! Now that I know, I can't let him have it too easy."

Li Chen didn't say anything more. Whatever Wang Changtian wanted to do was his business.

When Yin Tao's agent received the invitation from Rongchen Pictures, he felt that it was a great turn of events.

Last year, because of a TV series "The Rise of the Sky", Yin Tao became the dream lover of the Japanese.

Not long ago, I received an invitation from Japanese pop star Toshi Kubota to be the female lead in the MV for the theme song of the movie "City of Dawn" starring Kyoko Fukada and Goro Kishitani.

Unexpectedly, I received an invitation from Rongchen Pictures right after that.

"Okay, no problem, Mr. Yu. Thank you. Thank you. Excuse me. Why did you choose Yin Tao for this play?"

Yin Tao standing by was also very nervous. She had just instructed her agent to tell the other party that she wanted to read the script first before making a decision.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she regretted it. There was no point in even looking at the script of Rongchen Pictures.

But I didn't expect the other party to agree so readily.

"Director Li mentioned me. Is that reason enough?" Yu Miao said with a smile.

The agent and Yin Tao looked at each other and hung up the phone. Both of them were a little upset.

"Boss Yu said Director Li named me? Did you hear that correctly?"

"It's impossible that we both heard it wrong."

Scenes flashed through Yin Tao's mind.

When I first performed in "A Family in Wenzhou", I had never met Director Li at Splendid Diamonds.

It was not until later that I became familiar with Deng Chao because of the film "Happiness is Like a Flower" that I met him again.

But there was not much to say.

"Hey, why did Director Li suddenly call on me? Is it because of The Secret History of Empress Wu Zetian?"

"How would I know? Why think so much? You can't find the answer to this kind of thing even if you search with a lantern."

Yin Tao called Deng Chao again, but Deng Chao was even less clear.

Then Deng Chao asked Liu Yifei again.

Liu Yifei certainly knew about the project "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky", but she didn't care about the casting.

I asked this question casually when I was chatting on the phone with Li Chen in the evening.

"It's just a role, you guys are playing it like passing the parcel. I chose her because her performance as Dongfang Wenying in The Sky of History was very spiritual."

"Oh" Liu Yifei dragged out the tone.

"Oh what!" Li Chen laughed.

"I thought Director Li loved her and knew that both she and I had been slandered by the Song team, so he gave her special care. It turns out I was overthinking."

"That's just one aspect. You don't think too much about it. I don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing to marry a wife who understands me so well."

"Humph, as long as you don't do bad things, it's a good thing."

"Hahaha"

Netizens and fans unexpectedly discovered that the two beauties Yin Tao and Liu Yifei followed each other on Weibo.
