Actor: Thank you.

"Hello, Editor-in-Chief Liu, how are you these days?"

"Is there any problem with the program 'Wulin Zhengzhuan'? Do you need my advice?" Zhang Yuan said with a smile after answering the phone.

Editor-in-Chief Liu thought to himself, stop interrupting me!
Others may not know, but how can you not know what you have done?
You don't cause trouble on earth, but only cause trouble in heaven.

There is nothing you dare not do, right?
He called today, he must have come to ask questions on orders from his superiors.

"I've been average lately, you should be doing well, right?"

"Ah, the movie is selling well?"

"Hehehe, just a small and insignificant achievement." Zhang Yuanxu said this time.

"No, it's not small. You are quite good at publicity."

"What are you saying? I don't understand."

"Okay, you're still trying to trick me. Next time you come to CCTV, don't knock on my office door."

"Oh, don't be angry, I was just joking."

After the eyepatch incident, his relationship with Editor-in-Chief Liu became much closer.

It has reached the point where we can eat in private and in public.

Compared with the previous meeting where they could only meet secretly, this is the difference between being at the table and not being at the table.

This person was originally the leader's trusted confidant.

After these events, Zhang Yuan also settled down as an external member of the network.

In general, the cooperative relationship between them is strongly correlated, after all, they are under the same roof.

And Editor-in-Chief Liu actually has a good impression of him.

Not to mention personal qualities like intelligence and ability to get things done, there are plenty of capable people in CCTV.

Just to say that after he became involved with this group of people, the strength of "our sect" increased greatly.

The two victories have significantly enhanced the leadership’s influence and voice.

This little brother of his also gained a lot of benefits.

All this happened after his arrival.

I don’t know whether I believe in fate or not, but he is always so lucky that I am happy to get close to him and share in the blessings.

So when Zhang Yuan joked with him, he didn't get angry.

As for Zhang Yuan, he felt completely relieved when he heard that it was him who called to ask questions.

Because if the higher-ups want to cause trouble, they will handle it impartially rather than contacting someone they are familiar with.

Just like a minister committing a crime.

The emperor asked the Dali Temple to handle the matter and asked the eunuchs around him to come to the palace for private questioning, but he did not disclose the results.

From the very beginning, the emperor had already set the tone for this matter in terms of attitude.

That's why Zhang Yuan dared to joke.

If Editor-in-Chief Liu calls, then it’s not a big deal.

"You are so brave!"

"You can do other things, but how can you joke about radio and television?" Editor-in-Chief Liu complained.

"I think you are a mouse serving as an escort to a cat. You value money more than your life!"

"This isn't my first time as a producer, and I want to make a good start."

"And you know this movie, it has a different meaning..."

Editor-in-Chief Liu understood that the previous incident was caused by this film.

So after the copywriting on the Internet attracted the attention of the higher-ups, a group of people took the opportunity to say weird things.

Most of these people are those whose interests have been damaged in this incident in the Hong Kong circle.

But soon they were beaten back.

The explanation is very simple. These texts are not groundless or fabricated, but are basically in line with the facts.

You did it and you don’t let people know?

Besides, the film is doing pretty well right now.

In other words, a movie that was doing pretty well was almost ruined by you guys, and you still have the nerve to speak up...

If you keep making trouble, that "Lust, Caution" will be seated at the same table with the soon-to-be-released "Transformers" and will be scheduled at the same time.

Jiang Zhiqiang was almost shot for no apparent reason...

The matter is settled now.

Then he asked Editor-in-Chief Liu to call him.

"First of all, were you the one who arranged those rumors on the Internet?"

"Yes."

Editor-in-Chief Liu: …

You admitted it so readily and confidently that it made it seem like I was wrong.

"No, it wasn't you."

"I did it."

"No, I said it's not, so it's not." He said seriously.

Zhang Yuan understood, and was told that he should never admit it.

"I understand. What next?"

"Be careful next time..." After saying these four words, Editor-in-Chief Liu felt helpless.

Just pamper him!
Lift it high and put it down gently, no problem.

When he heard the result, he was speechless for a long time.

I wanted to help and say a few nice words, but it ended up being a waste of my feelings.

Editor-in-Chief Liu thought to himself, don’t I know him well enough?
You will be careful next time, but he will dare to...

"Okay, I'll definitely pay attention. I'll treat you to a meal when I'm free in a while."

"Okay..." The man sighed and hung up the phone.

Get it!

Zhang Yuan threw down his phone and stretched lazily.

He wouldn't have dared to do this last year.

But these days are different.

He didn't have the guts to complain about censorship.

However, there are still people who dare to make money in the name of complaining about censorship, and they are very bold!

The audience has been complaining about them for a long time.

Ultimately, it’s still the same old problem.

How to manage.

This is true in any industry.

If you don't care, you really don't know what some imaginative people will do.

But if you control it, it will be too strict.

It continued to be criticized until 2013, when a film that was called a "turnaround" came out.

"The Sun Burns My Heart".

It is the scene where teacher Wang Yanhui is interrogated, which is widely praised as the "rule of law in progress".

Beep, beep... After lying there happily for a while, I received a call from Cheng Hao.

"How was your day?"

"Has anyone invited you to tea?"

Recently she calls almost every day, fearing that Zhang Yuan will be locked up in a small dark room one day.

And she was very dissatisfied with Zhang Yuan's "desperate" efforts for publicity.

Apart from the danger, there is also the factor of Fan Bingbing.

You've spent a lot of money for this woman!
"Editor-in-Chief Liu called..."

After talking to her in detail, my good sister was silent for a long time.

"Just like that... gone?"

"Gone."

Seeing that she was confused, Zhang Yuan explained.

"If you were a teacher, what kind of student would you like most?"

"That must be someone who is smart, has good grades, and is obedient."

"That's right. Everyone likes this."

"But the ones that teachers remember most and have the best relationship with must be those who not only have good grades but also good brains, but who get into little troubles and make little mistakes all day long, causing him to worry."

"But every time there is a big exam or a big event, there are students who can make him proud."

Just like women too.

A good wife and mother, beautiful and good-tempered, of course it's good.

But better are those women who have these advantages but also have some small flaws and tempers.

In Shanghai, this is called "acting".

In the imperial capital, this is called "jing".

Having small flaws makes you lovable.

If it is too perfect, it will become boring after a long time.

Besides, Zhang Yuan has always been successful and has achieved great success in several major events.

At this time, you have to expose some small flaws.

You need the other person's help to deal with something, so there is give and take, which makes the relationship seem closer.

After hearing her words, Cheng Hao fell silent again.

"You men...are you all cheap?"

Zhang Yuan: …

How can you easily reveal the nature of human beings?

Not only men are mean, women are the same.

Otherwise, how could there be the saying that women only love bad men?

This is human nature. In the following days, Zhang Yuan continued to film on the set.

During the one-month event, all they did was film the fighting scenes between him and Li Lianjie.

Especially the first fight scene when they met, which took five days to shoot.

In the film, the character he plays, Jiang Wuyang, is equipped more like an assassin.

In the end, he was indeed an assassin.

Holding a two-handed dagger, the movements must be swift and agile, as powerful as the wind.

In order to demonstrate his heroic temperament and the foundation of a regular soldier, Li Lianjie's Pang Qingyun's movements are extremely ferocious and every move is deadly.

The two had experience working together on "The Forbidden Kingdom".

With the presence of the martial arts master Cheng Xiaodong, the filming went relatively smoothly, but Chen Kexin had high demands and often made adjustments.

Previously in "Curse of the Golden Flower", Cheng Xiaodong didn't see much of his fighting scenes.

There are very few fighting scenes for the eldest prince.

This time he was able to see it, which made him very satisfied.

"He is indeed the most active young man on the mainland!"

Not only satisfied.

He was even more surprised after seeing that even Old Li had to give this young man some respect.

"Zhang Yuan, come here."

During the break, Cheng Xiaodong was discussing the play with him and breaking down the moves.

Director Cheng was very relaxed because Zhang Yuan could do almost all the movements in one go and didn't have to try them over and over again.

When he had almost finished talking, Brother Hua called him aside.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Yuan saw that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he asked in confusion.

"Congratulations, it's a big hit at the box office."

"We are very happy. I hope that Crazy Racing will also be a big hit and we can make money together."

“Then use the money to support more young practitioners.”

"Okay!" Brother Hua felt happy when he heard this.

I've been in this business for more than 20 years. What strange things haven't I seen?
But since I met this kid, my horizons have been broadened.

"Crazy Stone" made nearly 5000 million at the box office.

This movie "Apple", with such a theme and content, actually made nearly 5000 million at the box office!
Now, three or four weeks have passed, and "Apple" has officially been withdrawn from the mainland.

Because "Lust, Caution" will be released in a few days.

It's boring to be squeezed into this play.

And "Lust, Caution" also had to be released, otherwise it would have to be squeezed in with "Transformers".

No matter how confident Jiang Zhiqiang is, he has no brains to rush out and fight with this year's Hollywood hotshot.

If it weren't for "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", "Transformers" would have almost become the annual box office champion.

The former has two previous films as a basis for its popularity.

After the film was confirmed to be taken off the shelves, the box office summaries from various regions were handed over to him.

The film grossed 4470 million in mainland China.

Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, Formosa and other countries did, and received a box office of 2700 million.

The total is just over 7000 million, which is not as good as "Secret".

But the fact that this subject matter can achieve such a result has already opened the eyes of many people.

Among them is Liu Dehua.

Now Brother Hua feels that he is just a green hand in the film and television industry, in front of Zhang Yuan...

In fact, he is a real greenhorn in the film and television investment industry.

Many times I lost all my bitter tea seeds.

Seeing that Zhang Yuan had made more than 4000 million yuan from this movie, he became more confident about "Crazy Racing".

However, what he didn't expect was that a "copycat" would appear.

This is why his expression is so difficult to describe.

It is said that "the first person to make clay figures for burials will have no descendants."

Now, Zhang Yuan is the "culprit".

Other colleagues took a look.

what!
Can you get so much attention just by using the above as publicity?
So, you can make money by just cursing a few times?
Learned.

So, a low-budget thriller called "The Haunted House" also followed this approach.

I promoted myself online but was censored by the radio and television authorities many times. It was only after a lot of hardship and difficulties that I was finally "released" to meet everyone.

The director of this film made his fortune by making horror films. Knowing that this genre is not very popular in mainland China, he borrowed this trick.

But as the saying goes, "If you don't have the skills, don't take on the job."

What's your level?

Use the same method as me.

Take a look up.

They say you can’t touch a tiger’s butt. What do you think I am?

Public toilet?
Come when you want and leave when you want!
Who dares to say a few words? How can this be tolerated?

Do I still have any dignity left?
Notify theaters to withdraw the film urgently and send it back for re-review.

Come on, let’s do what we say.

This really confused the film producers.

Why is it okay for him to do this?
It's just a good opportunity to use him as a sacrifice to let others know the consequences of doing this.

So this play seems to go straight from the delivery room to the funeral home, and its short life passes by like a shooting star.

Boom...it's gone just like that.

But the leading actor of this movie has something to do with it.

The boy is of mixed race, quite handsome, and his name is Wu Jialong.

He is not famous, but his father is famous, his name is Wu Yaohan.

This is the actor who played the Green-Winged Bat King in Li Lianjie's version of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber".

He also acted in a zombie movie with Lam Ching-ying.

This brother's family is the founder of Kowloon Motor Bus and Kowloon Funeral Home, and they have a high status in Hong Kong.

Later he got married. His wife was British and a barber.

But no ordinary barber.

His wife is a famous, or perhaps the most famous hairstylist in the world, a direct disciple of Vidal Sassoon.

It's the shampoo brand called Sassoon.

Moreover, this lady is the first generation direct descendant, equivalent to the Yun generation of Deyuan Society.

Those were all taught by the old man himself.

Therefore, after Mr. Ng Man-tat and his wife established their own hair salon in Hong Kong, they became the hairstylist of choice for Hong Kong stars of that generation.

Even his wife became Bruce Lee's personal hairstylist.

Some of Bruce Lee's most classic looks were created by this person.

Therefore, Ng Man-tat is very popular in the Hong Kong circle and has a high status.

When the son sees that there is a problem with his play, he will definitely look for his father.

After Mr. Wu asked clearly, he first found Kara Hui.

My older sister acted in the movie "Apple", so I went to ask her.

Moreover, it was Kara Hui who introduced Ng Man-tat to TVB, and the two had a very good relationship.

Kara Hui felt that the person who tied the bell should be the one to untie it, but her relationship with Zhang Yuan was just average.

So he contacted Liu Dehua and asked him to help act as a middleman.

This is why we have found Zhang Yuan to talk to him.

Zhang Yuan was stunned after hearing this.

"There really is someone so foolish and bold..."

Are these the same group of people who got stuck after “bottom fishing” in A-shares?
He thought that if the institution made money, he could make money too.

But they are an institution, and you are you...

He dares to go all in just by looking at the appearance. Who knows how much water there is in his brain.

"Brother Wu, I want to ask, do you have any way to help the film get out of trouble?"

Now it was Zhang Yuan's turn to look embarrassed.

He and Brother Hua now look alike.

Not to mention that I don’t have it, even if I do, it will definitely cost a huge price.

Why should I help someone I don't even know?
You have to bear the consequences of your own mistakes, and you have to clean up your own shit.

I won't get involved in this.

My only responsibility is that my success has given my peers the illusion that “I can do it, too.”

"Brother Hua, I really can't do this."

"It's not like my family owns the radio and television company."

"Isn't it?"

Zhang Yuan: …

Be careful or I’ll sue you for defamation!

He slandered me!
Can you say this?
Deadly!
"Okay." After joking, Brother Hua patted his shoulder.

“I know it probably won’t work.”

"But I still have to ask about what my friend has asked of me."

"Don't feel any psychological burden."

Brother Hua was just joking, but just like this crew, many people really took it seriously!
In the following days, Zhang Yuan's phone kept ringing.

They all came to congratulate and build relationships... (End of this chapter)
