Actor: Thank you.

on the wine table.

When Ge You mentioned the recent unpleasantness between Feng Dapao and poet Chen, everyone fell silent and listened to the gossip with great interest.

Only Wu Jing kept glancing at Zhang Yuan not far away.

Because he was the only one who knew that this "strange thing" that interested everyone in the circle was closely related to his buddy.

When this matter was mentioned, Sun Honglei, who had been squinting his eyes and toasting happily everywhere, also spoke, which was in stark contrast to his previous screen image.

"When Teacher Ge You said that, I also noticed it."

"I will not be filming Director Chen's "Mei Lanfang" anymore. I will start promoting it soon."

"Director Chen has a bad temper."

When Sun Honglei said this, his expression looked like he was constipated.

In other words, they are cursing in front of others, but they are probably cursing behind their backs.

"I was wondering what was wrong. It turns out you were in a bad mood."

When Zhang Yuan heard Sun Honglei talking like this, he felt that he would take out the spray gun and point it at Chen Shiren's head in the next second.

"Pigeon, I heard you've been looking for me recently?"

Sun Honglei's status has been rising steadily in recent years, especially after the huge hit of "The Disguiser", he has become a top star in the TV drama industry.

Many people in the film industry look for him.

To be honest, Brother Honglei is very capable. His acting skills, work ability and communication skills are all top-notch.

Later, when "Go Fighting" became a big hit, he alone accounted for 3% of the credit.

It really does everything.

Before that, I performed "Mei Lanfang" by Chen Shiren.

Now Zhang Yimou is also in talks with him about his new film "Movies and TV Series".

The following year, when "If You Are the One" was filming the second season, he was also approached.

This means that he has filmed movies by three top directors in just a few years.

But even though he is very famous now, he is still ordered around by poet Chen.

Zhang Yuan could guess without him saying anything that there was a conflict in the publicity and release schedule, and poet Chen got excited again.

It’s easier for TV series, but physical offline promotion of movies is quite important.

Some plays have to be performed on the road for more than ten shows, and have to travel back and forth domestically and abroad.

It’s not so bad for ordinary artists, but popular artists have a lot of announcements and it’s easy for them to not be able to make time.

Therefore, additional terms are usually written into the contract when signing it.

How many events should I attend? Will I be paid for each event? How much will I be paid? What about food, accommodation, air tickets and hotels?

For someone like poet Chen, we definitely won’t give him money, and maybe we won’t even provide him with meals.

Other artists can earn millions a day by spending the same amount of time cutting ribbons or attending opening ceremonies.

Or maybe we are in the middle of filming and can’t adjust the schedule, this kind of situation will happen.

But Director Chen is the type of person who, if I ask you to come, you have to come. If you don’t come, you’re rebelling and not giving me face.

This is the problem Sun Honglei is facing now.

No matter how nicely you talk to him, you can't run away. The other party just gets angry and makes a big fuss about it.

There was nothing I could do, so I had to bear it and continue the topic of complaint at the dinner table.

When The Promise was being promoted, Mr. Xie was busy filming and had no time to go, so during an interview with Poet Chen, he openly criticized him and even privately threatened to ban him.

In the end, Yang Shouchen went to say hello, and Mr. Xie served tea, accompanied the guests with drinks, and attended a large number of activities for free, and the matter was finally settled.

This is the case for Nicholas Tse, the prince of the Hong Kong entertainment industry, let alone Sun Honglei.

"Kaige is out of touch with reality and always acts very pretentious." Jiang Wen said shakily.

"But what's the matter with him and Xiaogang?"

"do not know."

"I didn't hear that."

Everyone shook their heads.

"Who knows what has happened to irritate him again." Jiang Wen continued, "He is a thoughtful person. Who knows what he is thinking."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Zhou Yun advised.

Always chatting about colleagues is not good stuff. If it is leaked by someone, you will become enemies.

There are many people in the entertainment industry who "sell their friends for fame" and then reveal to their owners what they heard privately at the dinner table.

As long as there is a slight chance to get ahead, people in this circle will work hard.

"Hey, I seem to have heard that you and Kaige also had conflicts?" Jiang Wen looked at Zhang Yuan and remembered this.

"How dare I? He's a big director. He would punish me like a grandson."

"I dare not have any conflicts." Zhang Yuan looked around and saw that they were all his own people, but he still couldn't say anything careless.

But he thought that Jiang Wen had never worked with poet Chen.

They almost collaborated, but Jiang Wen wanted to play Cheng Dieyi in "Farewell My Concubine" and sent Chen Shiyi a photo of herself with long hair, which scared him.

If they had cooperated, they would probably have broken up on the same day.

Between Jiang Wen's toughness and Chen Shishi's arrogance, neither could give in to the other.

Jiang Wen was also "spoiled" because Xie Jin adopted many of his suggestions when filming "Furong Town".

Therefore, he was always confident in whatever film he acted in afterwards, relying on the attitude that “even Xie Jin has heard of me”.

When filming "Looking for the Gun", Lu Chuan didn't listen to him, so Jiang Wen got angry and left on the spot, taking the rest of the actors with him.

The key is that the other actors also listened to him and followed him.

This is what the people want. Who is right? How can an expert not know this?
It’s just that people like Chen Shishi and Lu Chuan, who have great backgrounds, are stubborn and self-righteous, and they all have the personality of “if they say you can do it, you can do it, even if you can’t, and if they say you can’t do it, you can’t do it, even if you can do it.”

And what Zhang Yuan grasped was the nature of these playboys in the imperial circle!

What does it mean to be stubborn and self-righteous.

The most important characteristic of being stubborn is sticking to one's own opinions and not listening to others.

Later, the game "Werewolf" became popular everywhere.

Among them, wolf players have a tactic called "self-knife wolf".

Tactically, killing one of your own members at night can be used to obtain the "antidote".

Strategically, doing so can create a "victim" identity, form a blind spot in thinking, and facilitate subsequent actions.

This time, Zhang Yuan stabbed himself at the very beginning.

Tactically, he tricked Lao Han into giving him the "antidote".

Han Sanpin will help him explain.

Strategically, this left a blind spot in poet Chen's psychology.

He would never have thought that Zhang Yuan was the one who was slandering himself.

In particular, Old Han would help explain, asking and scolding him sternly, telling him not to mess with Zhang Yuan anymore.

Poet Chen couldn't think of it because he couldn't see any benefit from Zhang Yuan doing this.

It doesn't make sense.

As Conan Doyle wrote in Sherlock Holmes, eliminate the impossible and whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.

But the premise is that when you eliminate the impossible, you cannot eliminate the correct answer at the same time.

Director Chen is so confident and credulous that he will not admit anything he cannot understand.

Then, he has to find an angle that he can understand to analyze it.

In other words, he has not watched "Young Justice Bao".

The warrior with a sharp knife risked his life to frame Guo Huai for his master, the Eighth Wise King.

He clamped the knife with ice, and jumped onto the knife with his back down, creating the illusion that he was stabbed to death from behind.

Those who have watched "Detective Conan" should be familiar with this part, it's all "imitation".

Zhang Yuan's purpose was to arouse his thinking.

Whenever poet Chen thought, Zhang Yuan started laughing.

The great director was thinking, what was he thinking?

Whoever benefits must be the one who did it.

So who benefits?

Director Chen was thinking that "Mei Lanfang" was previously released on New Year's Eve, but now it has been moved to the Spring Festival.

At this point, a "three-legged tripod" situation was formed.

The "Three Sages" of "Red Cliff", "Mei Lanfang" and "If You Are the One" meet.

"Red Cliff" and "Mei Lanfang" are both produced by China Film Investment, but "If You Are the One" is an exception.

That is a film directed by Feng Xiaogang and produced by Huayi!
The more Poet Chen thought about this, the more he felt something was wrong.

Back when "The Emperor and the Assassin" was filmed, poet Chen made a fortune by building a film and television city for the movie.

But the two brothers of the Wang family, who had just established their company at that time, were so defrauded by him that they almost "died halfway through their business".

Therefore, Huayi almost never collaborated with poet Chen again after that.

This matter can be considered as a grudge.

In addition, two movies scheduled for the Spring Festival were squeezed together, so when we were considering the promotion and marketing, we were thinking about how to surpass the other and get more screenings.

It's just that Lao Han is suppressing it, so it's still civilized. But it's just like loyalty is not absolute, it's absolutely not loyal.

Not completely under control means totally out of control!
Poet Chen is in this state of not being completely under control, he does not completely listen to Lao Han.

Moreover, the failure of "Red Cliff" also added a lot of pressure on Lao Han's position within China Film.

Now Director Chen thought about it and determined that there was a conflict of interest.

Think about it from the other side.

Director Chen is also a veteran in the industry and well-informed. He knows that Zhang Yuan and Hua Yi have a complicated relationship, so they fight and make peace.

I also thought of Feng Xiaogang, who is a well-known villain in the circle.

Even though they are all known as the three great directors, poet Chen looks down on the other two.

What is your background and what is mine?

"Okay, it's you."

"Xiao Gang!"

The director figured it out!

It must be that Feng Xiaogang knew about the affair between Zhang Yuan and me, so he took the opportunity to stir up some negative information about that guy on the Internet.

This way, not only can Huayi vent his anger, but it can also induce a fight between the two of us.

Poet Chen was thinking that the incident of his work "The Promise" had been brought up again, which caused widespread criticism and also made the audience question the quality of his new work.

After all, your previous one was really bad.

"That's right, and it makes the audience question my level."

"So as to suppress this powerful opponent of mine and pave the way for his own crappy comedy!"

"It seems that not only Xiaogang, but the two brothers from the Wang family are also up to something bad."

"Shameless!"

"What a plan, what a plan!"

"Playing dirty tricks behind the scenes only benefits the fisherman."

"If I hadn't been so observant, I would have really fallen for your trick."

And there is one more thing that makes poet Chen even more certain that it was Feng Xiaogang who did it.

It has to be called ginger pattern.

There were rumors about Zhang Yuan and Xu Qing outside all day long.

Back when Wang Shuo, Ye Jing and others were hiding in the woods with female students at the dance academy, Feng Xiaogang couldn't even get a bite to eat because he had no money and was ugly.

So after becoming famous and rich, there is a certain degree of revengeful mentality.

However, Director Feng is the type of person who is more lustful than bold. He would not force the unspoken rules on the actresses. He would just give a hint and let the actresses come to him on their own initiative.

It’s not easy to deal with big-name actresses, because they are usually “well established” and have people behind them.

So I only choose those with average fame.

Feng Dapao is very familiar with all kinds of audition techniques.

Throughout one's life, one will eventually be trapped by that young self.

He couldn't reach the level of a great friend like Xu Qing when he was young, and now that he has become famous, he still can't reach the level of a great friend like Xu Qing.

But a young boy got within its reach!

Can you not be angry?

After complaining, everyone knew that Feng Dapao was greedy for her body.

With this "personal grudge" in mind, Director Chen felt that Xiaogang must be taking the opportunity to take revenge on that boy.

I was very angry and filled with resentment.

He will definitely not be able to swallow this and will definitely make a big fuss.

Zhang Yuan added the identity of a victim to himself in order to cause infighting between these two big names in the entertainment circle and senior members of the industry.

Traditional Kung Fu emphasizes the use of energy to achieve great results with little effort.

Zhang Yuan goes to deal with these two?
He can't beat any of them.

Just like what the human army should do when they discover that MUTOs and Godzilla appear together.

Divide the troops into two groups to fight?
It would be better to lure them together and let the two giants do it themselves.

The Spring Festival is a big stage, come if you have the guts.

I want to see which of you can beat the other.

These two are so petty, each one is more petty than the other, who can let the other go?

This is the buckle Zhang Yuan made and the bag he sewed for the two of them to squeeze into.

So is this problem easy to solve?
It’s actually very easy to solve.

As long as both sides reconcile the accounts, it will be clear that it was not the other party who did it.

But the problem is that men in the capital are particularly proud of their appearance.

Whether it is poet Chen or the two brothers of the Wang family, they are both typical examples of people who like noodles.

They will definitely not be able to reconcile the accounts in a short period of time, and it will take a while.

And even if they realize that this is wrong, they may not stop.

Because there is an actual conflict of interest!

Poet Chen wanted to make a comeback with "Mei Lanfang".

Huayi needs "If You Are the One" to lay the foundation for its listing.

They won't give in to anyone.

Maybe he will pretend to be ignorant even though he knows the truth, so as to deal with the other party.

Moreover, Zhang Yuan knew that although the Wang brothers were from a wealthy family and had wealth and power,

But poet Chen is not afraid of them.

Because in addition to his own background, his wife Chen Hong is also extraordinary.

Chen Hong's grandparents were both masters of super alloy hardness, and were not inferior to the two Wang brothers who were born in the compound.

So every time poet Chen got married, it was actually a bit like marrying into the woman's family...the woman's family background was bigger than theirs.

Besides, after so many years of debut, has poet Chen ever reconciled with anyone?
Some problems are easy to solve with just a set of formulas.

But the problem is that some people deliberately don't use the formula even if they know it.

Zhang Yuan listened with amusement when he saw Jiang Wen muttering about the funny and ugly things that happened when they were young.

Only Wu Jing was afraid when he saw him smile.

so horrible!

He instigated two big directors to fight each other!
After the meal, Zhang Yuan saw Jiang Wen and his wife off in the car.

Then they went to the hotel and booked a room for Chen Kun, who was unconscious.

"What are you drinking..."

Zhang Yuan threw him on the bed and left him alone.

She's not a pretty woman, it's none of your business.

"I'll leave tomorrow after my last scene and go promote 'Wolf Fang'."

Wu Jing helped him carry Kun Kun, and left while talking.

"Okay, you should work harder and relax. This is your first time directing and acting in a film, so don't be too stressed."

"You make it sound easy, but I dare not relax." Wu Jing felt a little panicked as the matter was about to happen.

"You are really cruel. You set such a big trap for Director Chen and Director Feng just to vent your anger."

"It's the first time I've seen someone use himself to make a nest."

"As the saying goes, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child." Zhang Yuan smiled and hooked his shoulder: "And you misunderstood."

"I'm not just doing this to vent my anger."

"Then for what?"

"Look, you've forgotten everything, so those two definitely can't remember it either."

"Actually, I also have a movie during the Spring Festival." Zhang Yuan showed a cunning look.

"Have it?"

"Tsk, that cartoon, Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf!"

"Oh, and this one too. I had forgotten it was yours."

"Like you, those two won't take this movie seriously."

"When the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman gains."

"Let them fight. It will just give my cartoon some room to survive."

Wu Jing gasped when he heard this.

He thought that Feng Xiaogang was in the basement and was caught for no apparent reason.

Poet Chen is on the first floor, but feels like he is on the fifth floor.

And Zhang Yuan was far ahead of them in the atmosphere!

Wu Jing began to understand why those successful seniors would hate and suppress the younger generations.

Who can bear such a thing? (End of this chapter)
