Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 660 This dog is so majestic
The entire Internet has been continuously criticizing the principal and Yutu, causing constant controversy.

Even if there were people who spoke up for Yutu and the principal, they were also led astray by the rhythm. Most people would not think deeply about the reasons behind this, or whether it was true.

Because many people don’t understand extras, the film production process, or how film and television companies operate.

Just take what the media says.

Anyway, it’s true that the principal is a capitalist, and there’s nothing wrong with criticizing capitalism.

The points of criticism are no longer limited to the two previous topics, such as wage fraud and the squeezing out of small workshops and squeezing the living space of other film and television companies.

Now there is a new topic. A photo of an old man guarding the gate of Yutu Film and Television Base has gone viral online.

There is also an article about this photo, titled: "Yutu's achievements are the suffering of its employees! It is also the suffering of the film and television industry!"

The article is over a thousand words long, and the general meaning is that Yutu's current achievements were achieved by exploiting its employees, peers, and filmmakers.

This article also received 20 likes and created a topic:
"Behind the glory of Yutu is the high pressure on the industry and its workers."

"The principal is so cold-blooded that he asked an old man of his age to work."

Such topics and comments are everywhere, and some people also say that he "provides formalistic services" and "exploits employees", directly labeling Fang Hong as a cold-blooded capitalist.

It was also posted on the face of the Jade Rabbit. In the Chang'e video, all the comments in the videos and movies with the Jade Rabbit logo were insults.

Said: "Boycott Yutu's movies, boycott the principal, and boycott Liu Tianxian."

"Everyone should not watch the movies produced by this company. They are disgusting capitalists. Liu Tianxian is the same. They are all the same breed."

Even Liu Tianxian was implicated.

Of course, we don’t know which comments are from internet trolls and which are from real people. In fact, not many real people care about this, and most of them are just being led by the rhythm.

In the era of mobile Internet, the rhythm is easy to be led.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many posts refuting rumors.

The incident fabricated by the other party caused Yutu to face an unprecedented reputation crisis. Fortunately, it is not a listed company. If it were a listed company, this wave would inevitably lead to a drop in stock prices.

It’s really a good method. If I can’t defeat you on the content, I will defeat you on the morality and ideology.

Seeing such a strong public opinion, even Lao Cao, who makes glass, was unwilling to be left out and meddlesome on the show: "Blindly giving high wages will kill the company and other peers. We should be consistent with the industry."

The meaning of this statement is very clear, that is, you shouldn't pay high salaries, which will destroy the industry ecology. Those people should only get the salaries they deserve.

Lao Cao's words added fuel to the public opinion, making the fire burn even more fiercely.

Of course, there are also many netizens who scold him, saying that he is also a capitalist.

But the voices of scolding were completely taken away. The people behind the scenes would not tolerate certain people taking away the rhythm, and the target was the principal.

It is to bring disgrace to the principal and Jade Rabbit.

I don’t know if it was because Liu Tianxian was pregnant and had a bad temper or what, but she couldn’t help herself and posted a Weibo.

It was a photo of Heizi sticking out his tongue, with the caption: "Heizi, why do you keep barking all day long? It's really annoying, don't you know?"

Once this Weibo post was released, it quickly attracted a large number of fans.

"Hahaha, are you comparing those who scold the principal to barking dogs? What a good analogy."

"Wow! This dog is so majestic!"

"Hehe, you made my sister angry."

"It's really too much. It was originally the principal's fault, but now he's scolding my Sissi."

"Xixi, don't worry about it. That's the principal's problem. It has nothing to do with you. You should keep silent at this time."

Some people even advised her not to jump out, because if she did, those people would definitely deal with her again.

She can't handle the storm now.

However, Liu Tianxian specifically responded: "There is nothing wrong with my husband, it is others who have problems."

"Like, Xixi loves her man very much!"

"It should be so. Husband and wife are not birds of the same forest. Sissi is a true character."

Liu Tianxian was still very tough. She came out to speak for Fang Hong and won a lot of likes from fans.

Her words were screenshoted and circulated wildly by fans and netizens. Some scolded her and the principal for being in cahoots with each other and being capitalists, while others praised her for supporting her husband.

As her husband's partner, Liu Tianxian knows that his has done a lot of real things, and those who scold him just want to reap the benefits.

They just have a lot of money and foreign capital, and they don't care how much contribution anyone has made to the film and television industry.

Guo Fan, who is currently promoting "Mojin: The Lost Tomb", was asked by reporters what he thought about the recent "the principal is a capitalist" incident.

He also angrily blasted: "It's all nonsense. It's just some uneducated people spreading rumors everywhere."

He doesn't need to be afraid of anyone in this circle. He is not like a star who needs any film and television resources. He just needs to have a movie to shoot. Other directors, including Lu Yang and Chen Sicheng, also said that the principal is not like that. Yutu is very kind to every staff and filmmaker and is very generous.

Even Liu Yin, who worked behind the scenes, said: "Anyway, no one in my circle has bad things to say about the principal, and Yutu has not treated us unfairly."

Li Anran also said so.

And King Liu said in an interview with reporters: "I worked with Yutu once, the crew members and extras were very orderly, there was no such situation."

Chen Daoming also said: "Don't listen to what outsiders say. Those people are only after their own interests. You have to see for yourself and think for yourself. The principal I saw was not what outsiders said. He never treated anyone unfairly."

All of a sudden, directors, artists, and behind-the-scenes people who had worked with Fang Hong all stood up to speak for the principal and Yutu.

They are all celebrities, so their influence is still very large and they can stir up some public opinion.

But each side insisted on its own opinion, making netizens not know who to believe. However, many netizens were still very rational and analyzed the situation intelligently, knowing that someone was targeting the principal.

If you give too much money, you will be scolded; if you don’t give any money, you will also be scolded. It is completely intentional.

Some netizens are not stupid, nor are they easily led by others. On the contrary, they are very smart. It’s just that it is none of their business and the noise they make is small.

But if you make too many of them, it can still cause quite a bit of noise.

Most people in the entertainment industry and the film and television agencies remain silent. They just flatter whoever wins, but they are not sitting on the sidelines watching the fight.

To sit on the mountain and watch tigers fight, you need to be a little tiger yourself, that is, have the qualifications to sit at the table. If you don’t have the qualifications, no matter who wins, even if both sides suffer losses, they are still quails.

It's just that these people can gain some benefits in terms of endorsements and event appearances from the competition between the two sides.

For example, the brand endorsement for Dove was given to G.E.M. Deng, and it was not given to anyone else, but to a female singing star.

It seems that the brands are not stupid. The more intense the competition is, the less safe they are. So they give them something harmless and not too competitive.

Although some celebrities are third parties, who knows what kind of transactions are behind the scenes, and they get involved.

The situation is so turbulent right now, someone might become a victim.

Dior's spokesperson for China is still waiting and watching, but they are not in a hurry because they have international spokespersons.

Variety shows and activities by major TV stations have also reduced the appearances of Huayi and Yutu artists, waiting for the incident to calm down.

This matter lasted until the end of November. The two sides competed for almost two months. This time, Fang Hong did not say anything, nor did he take any countermeasures. There was no movement at all. It was those celebrities who spoke up for him spontaneously.

This made the Wangs very confused, as it was not in line with the principal's temperament!
"The principal must be planning something and trying to do something bad to us." Mr. Wang immediately guessed that Fang Hong had a conspiracy.

After all, they have been fighting for six years and are old rivals. The principal is not the kind of person who can swallow this humiliation and will definitely cause trouble for them.

But he didn't know that the principal was planning a big move!

Although the two sides have been fighting for so many years, Huayi is still doing well.

"I just don't know whether he wants to deal with us, or with Alibaba and Tencent. After all, it's not something we can do. The principal must know that." Da Wang said.

It is obvious that this is not something Huayi can do alone. Alibaba and Tencent are behind it, and Wanda is also involved.

"Brother, don't be so weak. The principal has come to your door and you still think he will let you go." Xiao Wang always felt that his brother was too weak.

People were targeting them from the beginning.

"Hey, you think I think that the bet with Dabaobei will expire in a month, and the bet will definitely fail, and the stock price will definitely fall by then.

If we continue to fight like this, the artist management will also be ruined. Now outside brands and activities don’t want to invite our artists, they are afraid that something bad will happen.” Da Wang said helplessly.

Huayi is not as resilient as Yutu, as Yutu has its overseas business to support it. Huayi has invested too much and has spread its wings too wide.

There is not much income from artist management, and if the bet fails again, it will inevitably lead to a decline in Huayi’s goodwill and a drop in its stock price.

"Even so, we can just pledge a portion of our equity for financing. Our listed company can raise funds from the stock market at any time. There is no need to be afraid of him." Mr. Wang is still very tough.

"We don't have much equity left to pledge." Mr. Wang said worriedly.

"Then just reduce your holdings and sell them to those capitals at a bidding price, and then buy them back when you have money." Xiao Wang always has beautiful ideas, but he doesn't know whether he will have the capital to buy them when the time comes.

I only heard him say: "We can't be so weak, we have to fight him to the end. Over the years, he has repeatedly come to cause trouble for us, and he doesn't want us to have an easy life. This time, we should take advantage of someone to help us beat him up. If we don't beat him up, there will be a lot of trouble in the future."

After hearing this, the king always felt that what his brother said made sense. For so many years, except for a few times when Huayi was arrogant in the past few years, it has been very quiet in recent years.

There was no sign that the principal was going to let them go, and he kept causing trouble for them.

"We are not having a good time, but you think the principal is having an easy time? He must be having a hard time too. He has four big movies coming out this time, and if all of them suffer losses, he will also be skinned." Mr. Wang added.

It is true that Yutu is not having an easy time either. Almost half of its artist agencies have been ruined, but the other half still have movies to shoot. But it is definitely better off than Huayi. Yutu has its animated films that are a big hit overseas to support it.

The accumulation of so many years is not something Huayi can compare to. Huayi is just making random investments.

Yutu has been focusing on content development for many years and has not engaged in other businesses.

This time, they are destroying the reputation of Yutu and the principal, targeting those four big movies and wanting the audience to boycott them.
