The group was kicked out, and low presence means they are bad?
Chapter 461: Labyrinth of Desire
U-View Office Building.
In an office.
After Chu Liya saw the hot searches about "Squid Game" on Weibo, the expression on her face twitched a little.
"No, why is Bai Xingjian so good at making trouble? It's clear that Squid Game can't be released in China, but he can still create an amusement park based on the Squid Game IP? I'm afraid these are not the contents he prepared in advance?"
Chu Liya was naturally very surprised about the IP amusement park of "Squid Game".
After all, who would have thought that at this point in time, Bai Xingjian would actually be able to serve this kind of thing.
This person is simply too extreme, okay?
Ding Yuntao was also full of emotion at this moment, "I can only say that our idea of competing with Bai Xingjian for popularity is still too naive. He can come up with something shocking from time to time. Who can compete with him for popularity? "
Ding Yuntao is now completely convinced.
Phoenix Pictures is clearly a film and television company.
But Bai Xingjian has already built the IP amusement park of "Squid Game"?
Wang Defa?
So will Phoenix Pictures enter the real estate industry next?
After all, real estate and the like are much simpler than building an amusement park.
"Originally, the popularity of our drama "Spiritual Lord" was neither high nor low, and now Bai Xingjian suddenly intervened..."
Chu Liya sighed and didn't know how they would run the drama "Ling Jue" next.
"The most important thing is that the movie 'Dying to Survive' has not been released yet, and the fan meeting has not started yet. When the fan meeting starts and the movie is released, I really can't imagine how lively the Internet will be."
Ding Yuntao imagined what would happen on Weibo in the future.
It is estimated that the entries related to the IP amusement park of "Dying to Survive" and "Squid Game" will continue to dominate the charts.
"The most eye-catching ones will undoubtedly be Dying to Survive and Squidward."
Ding Yuntao expressed his own opinion: "So I feel that we don't need to do marketing for "Ling Jue" anymore. At this time, the investment and the popularity are totally disproportionate."
Chu Liya nodded, agreeing with Ding Yuntao's statement: "That's true, and it's been more than 20 days. The audience who wanted to watch "Spiritual Lord" has probably already watched it. As for those who don't want to watch this TV series, no matter how much we promote it, they probably won't watch it, so it's good to end the operation of "Spiritual Lord" now."
"Then I will pass on this news later?" Ding Yuntao asked tentatively.
"Go."
Chu Liya nodded. "Although the current achievements of Ling Jue cannot be compared with Squid Game, it can be said to be very good in China. So, tell everyone not to have regrets about Ling Jue. This time it's not that our Ling Jue is not good, but that Bai Xingjian is too strong."
"clear."
Ding Yuntao responded, then left with a wry smile.
After Ding Yuntao left, Chu Liya was still staring at the computer screen in a daze, muttering to herself:
"Bai Xingjian, Bai Xingjian, what exactly do you want to do?"
……
April 4rd, there are still seven days left until the May Day holiday.
The movie "Labyrinth of Desire" also officially started its preview event today.
In the Magic City, a movie studio under Aoki Entertainment is bustling with people at this moment.
Outside the cinema, a huge LED screen played the movie trailer in a loop. The scene of the heroine played by Xu Lan, wearing a red dress and running on a foggy tree-lined path, attracted the attention of countless passers-by.
At the entrance of the studio, both sides of the red carpet were crowded with reporters and fans, flash lights were flashing one after another, and the air was filled with anticipation and excitement.
In a prominent position in the cinema hall, there is a huge poster of Xu Lan.
Her eyes are deep and her mouth is smiling but reveals a hint of indifference, which seems to complement the name of the movie "Labyrinth of Desire".
In a private room somewhere in the theater.
Zhang Hongtao leaned forward slightly and said to Shen Bowen, "Mr. Shen, we haven't received a reply from Phoenix Pictures. It seems that Bai Xingjian will not come to the preview of our "Labyrinth of Desire" this time."
In addition to ordinary moviegoers, the invited audience at the preview ceremony naturally included media, film critics, fans and industry insiders.
Bai Xingjian naturally belongs to this group of insiders in the industry.
Aoki Entertainment also extended an invitation to him.
However, judging from the current situation, Bai Xingjian did not accept their invitation.
"It doesn't matter if he doesn't come. One more or one less won't make much difference."
Shen Bowen smiled and didn't care much about it.
Because in his expectations, he never thought that Bai Xingjian would come.
After all, Bai Xingjian is still in Beijing right now. Does he have to fly from Beijing to Shanghai just to attend a preview of a movie that has little to do with him?
He probably doesn't bother to waste time.
Moreover, even if Qingmu Entertainment held the preview of "Labyrinth of Desire" in Beijing, given the relationship between Qingmu Entertainment and Bai Xingjian, Bai Xingjian probably would not come to attend.
Our relationship isn't that good yet.
Zhang Hongtao smiled and nodded. "If Bai Xingjian can come, it will be big news! The popularity it will generate will probably be similar to that of Bai Xingjian's Squid Game amusement park."
Hearing this, Shen Bowen sneered, stood up, patted Zhang Hongtao on the shoulder, and said:
"Okay, stop fantasizing. It's better to rely on yourself than on others. Let's go. The preview is about to start. Today is the stage for our "Labyrinth of Desire."
Zhang Hongtao smiled and nodded, then walked out of the private room with Shen Bowen.
At today's preview of the movie "Labyrinth of Desire", they are also one of the protagonists.
……
At 2:30 p.m., the preview of the movie "Labyrinth of Desire" officially began.
After important actors such as Xu Lan successfully completed the red carpet segment and took their seats in the theater, the movie "Labyrinth of Desire" began to screen.
The film industry has developed over the years and basically has a fixed narrative structure and rhythm.
The rhythm of the movie "Labyrinth of Desire" can be said to be full of commercial attributes.
In just a few minutes at the beginning, the audience is told the dilemma that the heroine Lin Ruohan, played by Xu Lan, is currently facing.
Many viewers were also aroused by this information.
Lin Ruohan is a bank teller. Although her salary is not high, she has ideals and longs to go to a bigger city and a farther place.
However, her bedridden mother restricted Lin Ruohan's steps and prevented her from giving up her job as a bank teller easily.
One day, Lin Ruohan suddenly received a mysterious phone call.
The other party claimed to be an investment consultant of the "Jin Fan Club" and could help her "rise to fame overnight". The condition was that Lin Ruohan joined their "Jin Fan Club".
At first, Lin Ruohan scoffed at this.
"Jin Fan Club? What the hell is that? It's obviously a scam call, okay? I'm a graduate student from a 911 school, am I that easy to fool?"
On the screen, Lin Ruohan complained after hanging up the phone, not taking it seriously.
Hearing these complaints and the expression displayed by Xu Lan also amused many of the audience in the theater.
"I can only say that she is worthy of being called Sister Lan. I used to only focus on her figure, but I didn't expect her acting skills to be so excellent." "Yes! Sister Xu Lan is obviously 38 years old, but the state she shows on the screen right now is no different from that of a 28-year-old."
"Sister Xu Lan is now disdainful of this Jin Mi Club, will she really be attracted by it later?"
The audience was talking about it.
On the screen, the story of "Labyrinth of Desire" continues to unfold.
As the plot progresses, the heroine Lin Ruohan comes into contact with an investment software sent to her by a gold fan club.
The introducer who called her also said that he had inside information and that she could definitely make a lot of money by using this software.
At first, Lin Ruohan was skeptical about this investment software, but she never thought that she could get one thousand yuan for free just by registering with this software.
This is not ten yuan or one hundred yuan, but one thousand yuan!
Lin Ruohan hesitated for two days, but finally couldn't resist the temptation and opened the software to register.
Then, she successfully withdrew the one thousand yuan to her bank card.
Lin Ruohan was stunned when she saw the bank account arrival text message notification on her mobile phone.
"This is actually true?!"
While Lin Ruohan was still surprised, her introducer started sending her messages again.
He said that as long as she recharged the corresponding amount into the account she had just registered and then completed the corresponding purchase operations, her principal would be guaranteed to multiply several times.
Lin Ruohan ignored the messages sent by the introducer because she had seen such scams before.
So, she uninstalled the software without hesitation.
However, accidents happen. Lin Ruohan's bedridden mother's condition further deteriorated and required more medical expenses.
With Lin Ruohan's savings over the years and her current salary, she cannot afford such high medical expenses.
After much hesitation, she downloaded the previous software again and started to recharge it.
At the beginning, following the introducer's instructions, Lin Ruohan did make some money, and successfully withdrew the money to pay for her mother's medical expenses.
But as the amount of money she invested grew, she started to lose more and more money.
Until the end, Lin Ruohan lost all her money and finally realized that it was a scam.
She began to communicate hysterically with the introducer.
When Lin Ruohan was in despair, Chen Haoran, the leader of the "Jin Fan Club", extended an olive branch to her and invited her to join the organization, using her beauty and eloquence to lure more people into the game.
Therefore, in order to get back everything she had, Lin Ruohan quit her job at the bank and joined the "Jin Mi Club".
In the Jin Fan Club, Lin Ruohan was forced to become a "traffic attractor", wearing revealing clothes in the live broadcast room and selling fake financial products to the audience.
Lin Ruohan herself is very beautiful, so her cool appearance and tall figure directly became a weapon for the Jin Mihui fraud gang, luring countless people into the trap.
But after the live broadcast ended, Lin Ruohan burst into tears and struggled internally.
However, Lin Ruohan had already boarded the pirate ship and had no way out, so she could only stay in the Jin Fan Club.
When the audience in the theater saw this, they couldn't help but sigh.
Feel sorry for the heroine in the movie.
However, some careful viewers also discovered a problem.
"Why does the rhythm of this story feel a bit similar to "All or Nothing"? "
"Maybe it's because of the subject matter? Aren't all scam stories based on this pattern?"
"Sure enough, Lin Ruohan still smells really good!"
"You can say she's stupid, but she's also a little smart. You can say she's smart, but she still lost all her belongings. I can only say that it's really hard to evaluate the character of Lin Ruohan."
……
The story on the screen continues to develop.
With her own abilities and charm, Lin Ruohan thrives in the Jin Fan Club.
The Jin Mi Club is different from the team led by Manager Lu in "All or Nothing". They work in a formal office building.
Apart from the fact that the content of the work is somewhat shameful, there is no difference in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation between them and white-collar workers in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
So in such an environment, Lin Ruohan gradually adapted to her new identity.
As time went by, Chen Haoran, one of the leaders of the Jin Mi Hui organization, fell in love with Lin Ruohan.
When the two were involved in an ambiguous relationship, Chen Haoran even declared that he was willing to "quit the underworld" for Lin Ruohan.
However, Lin Ruohan's childhood sweetheart, now an undercover policeman Zhou Ziang, suddenly appears.
He sneaked into the Jin Mi Club to investigate, but found that his former lover was already in deep trouble.
He even witnessed an intimate scene between Chen Haoran and Lin Ruohan.
Seeing this part, many viewers were a little dumbfounded.
"No, is this plot so dramatic?"
"It's a bit bloody."
"Childhood sweetheart is currently committing a crime?"
"I can only say that it is Xu Lan who is worthy of her name. This large-scale scene does look quite touching."
"Sexy goddess, what do you think!"
……
By chance, Zhou Ziang met Lin Ruohan and persuaded her to turn back.
However, Lin Ruohan rejected Zhou Ziang because her mother's condition worsened.
Chen Haoran also discovered the relationship between Zhou Ziang and Lin Ruohan, and also knew Zhou Ziang's identity.
But he did not expose Zhou Ziang.
Because Chen Haoran believed that the appearance of Zhou Ziang would be his opportunity to leave the Jin Fan Club.
However, one day.
Lin Ruohan's mother accidentally discovered that her daughter seemed to be working for a fraud gang.
Lin's mother was so upright that after confirming the truth of the matter, she angrily severed the mother-daughter relationship with Lin Ruohan, and revealed that the Jin Fan Club was the mastermind behind the bankruptcy of Lin Ruohan's father's company.
Lin Ruohan collapsed after hearing the news.
She also angrily found Chen Haoran and confronted him.
Chen Haoran admitted it all and also told Lin Ruohan that he was the culprit who killed Lin Ruohan's father.
At this time, Lin Ruohan could no longer hold back. (End of this chapter)
