Emperor Superstar Cultivation System

Chapter 457: Wrath and Ingratiation

The scenic Guilin, a mining area here, is being surrounded by crowds of people.

A human wall composed of rows of tourists was blocked outside the isolation zone, and countless policemen shuttled through it like busy bees.

Without it, the person filmed here is none other than "National Teacher" Zhang Yimou.

The influence of a generation, accumulated over ten years, cannot be eliminated by the failure of one film.

He has the capital to fail, and he has the ambition to show it off this year.

"Director Zhang, the magazine you want." The assistant put a stack of magazines on the table next to him and said softly.

"Yeah." Zhang Yimou's slender face was expressionless, "Go ahead."

As soon as the other party left, he picked up the magazine and flipped through it.

However, before he had time to take the first look, he was startled.

"What! Time Warner's divestment?!" He snapped off his sunglasses, and everyone around him was startled.

"Director Zhang, what's going on?" A face that would make a woman scream when she saw it was Jin Chengwu, one of the male protagonists of Flying Daggers.

He was resting, and was taken aback by Zhang Yimou's scream.

When he leaned over to look at it, he was also dumbfounded in surprise.

"Time Warner withdrew its investment...the Chinese New Year blockbuster 'Painted Skin' with an investment of [-] million yuan was acquired by Dalian Wanda..." He gasped.

Such a message is clearly published on the large pages of each magazine, and even every punctuation mark is exactly the same, as if it has been perfectly pre-arranged.

This sentence is too informative.It was so big that neither Zhang Yimou nor Jin Chengwu spoke immediately.

"Time Warner is not Miramax...it is one of the giants in the global film and television industry..." After a long while, Zhang Yimou thought about it and said, "Its divestment means that Huapi has almost cut off its overseas access."

"Dalian Wanda took over, but its [-] million yuan is far cheaper than Time Warner's [-] million yuan. This is a temptation that no director can let go. How did Lin Xiao fall out with Warner Bros. This level?"

"Director Zhang...it doesn't have much to do with us, does it?" Jin Chengwu thought about it.

"The relationship is very important!" Zhang Yimou's face remained unchanged, "If they have an overseas market, they must put all their treasures on it, but once this big pie disappears, the domestic battlefield will become their battleground, not something they can consider. place."

He glanced at the busy studio, and his voice was full of anticipation, "That is to say, at the end of this year, with the addition of Chen Kaige and Lin Xiao, the two new forces, the battle will be even more tragic!"

"I'd like to see, Wang Bo, how do you make a movie, with an investment of [-] million, what can you make!"

At the same time, many movie fans, TV stations, and the Internet were shocked.

"The first film in China that has entered the eyes of a global giant has been divested! It's unbelievable!"

"Gossip, before the divestment, the Huapi production team was appealed by three companies at the same time!"

"There was still hope to enter the overseas market. Warner's theater chain is definitely not comparable to Miramax. I didn't expect..."

All kinds of discussions were floating on the Internet, magazines, and TV stations. Suddenly, the entire film and television circle focused on Huapi.

"What are you going to do?" Zhou Xun, Zhao Wei, and Qin Xin were all sitting in a room, looking at Lin Xiao in front of them.

"Wait." Lin Xiao said calmly.

Zhou Xun sighed silently. The most attractive thing about this film is that it is no different from the giant Time Warner, which has become popular again with The Matrix, and its countless theater channels.

It is an irresistible temptation for every artist to appear around the world.

"It's a pity..." Zhao Wei couldn't help saying it.

"What a pity?" Lin Xiao smiled. "It's a pity that Time Warner divested? It's a pity that our figure can't go to the world?"

"You are wrong, this film will still go global!"

Several ladies stared round their eyes in surprise.

Without Time Warner, who else can provide such a wide and rich theater resource?

MGM?Fox?

There is no limelight at all.

"Want to know?" Lin Xiao smiled and looked at the three beauties in front of him.

"But I can't say it now."

The three daughters, who had been watching him intently, rolled their eyes at the same time, curled their lips and left.

Seeing their figures silently protesting and leaving angrily, Lin Xiao murmured to himself, "It's not that I don't want to say it, but it's too mysterious, you won't believe it at all..."

This film will definitely go to the world.

And it was none other than Time Warner who made this step happen!

Steve Case, who was affected by the [-] billion acquisition, is now in a state of desperation. If Lin Xiao remembers correctly, he will completely withdraw from the board of directors at the end of this year.

Asia, China, a market of 13 billion people, is his last hope.Lin Xiao knew without even guessing that Li Kebao was completely finished this time.

Even though Steve Case is already in decline, as one of the founders of Warner, he still has a lot of weight in Warner.If he knew that Li Kebao dared to burn his life-saving straw without telling him, I don't know how angry he would be.

As for Camuel, who led this matter, he just wanted to hehe.

Since Steve Case dared to make a big determination to capture a bridgehead in China with a check of [-] million yuan, he would definitely not be willing to die in a foreign land with his last trick.

"We really have a relationship..." He smiled and knocked on the table.

Without doing anything, he went on to the final shoot.

This crew is a familiar process, many things, said a thousand times, it is better to do it once.

But now, it's coming to an end, and he estimates that there are still about ten days before the whole film can be finished.

August NO.12, a chartered flight landed at Beijing Capital International Airport.

Just after getting off the plane, seven blond and tall bodyguards opened the car door together, and then a tall, slightly fat black man with bald head slowly walked down.

"It's really cloudy weather." He looked at the sky, turned his ring finger with a diamond ring habitually, and then saw a middle-aged woman next to the plane in an instant.

"Welcome to China, executive officer of Warner, special correspondent of Mr. Steve Case of the board of directors, Mr. Paul." The middle-aged woman walked up with a smile when she saw the lenient black man.

"Beijing is a beautiful place. I have always yearned for roast duck and the Forbidden City." The black Paul replied politely, "However, please forgive my impoliteness, Director Xu of the China Film Department. There are some things that must be resolved first during my trip."

"At the same time, I hope that the three major Chinese film and television departments will understand the impact this has caused on your country's film and television industry. On behalf of Time Warner, I would like to express my sincere apology for this incident."

He behaved elegantly and politely, without any airs.

Because he knows that in front of government-level officials, it is not the time for private companies to save face.

"Mr. Paul, your flight is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. Considering the time difference, it will be about [-]:[-] p.m. when you arrive in Hengdian. It's exactly the early morning in the United States."

"Thanks to the China Film Department for being considerate." Paul turned cold. "Some people, in high positions, actually see the money and pay everything for 500 million. I don't believe that this is just done by a vice president of a district." Yes, there must be a deeper inside story! I promise to the three major film and television departments that I will thoroughly investigate this matter during this trip and give you a satisfactory answer!"

Director Xu nodded with a smile, without saying a word.

After Paul's fat body got into the car, his face became even colder.

"Call out the information of the president and vice president of the China area! Let them wait in Hengdian, and they will be reviewed at eleven o'clock!"

"The abacus hit Mr. Steve Case's head. This time, they will have to peel off their skins if they don't die!"

"Also, call out the film they invested in. I must make a complete end to this matter."

The secretary was stunned, "Mr. Paul, has he terminated the contract with us?"

"This is what makes me sick!" Paul gritted his fine white teeth "clucking" loudly. "Someone used movies to launder money. This is a letter from China's three major departments. Then I found out about it. This is their Tell Warner that we know about this matter, and it is over now, but the follow-up impact, and how to restore Warner's impression in the hearts of the three major movies, we can figure it out."

"The reason why we didn't disclose it was to save face for us! That film was the cause, and it was also an opportunity for a perfect solution. If we want to open up the Chinese market, we have to start with this... what? Huapi, oh, yes, Work hard!" Paul snorted, "If it wasn't for thoroughly investigating this matter and restoring Warner's reputation, Mr. Steve Case would have sent me?"

"Then? What are we going to do?" The secretary asked cautiously, seeing that Paul was already in a bad mood under the smile just now.

Anyone who wants to open a market that has just opened up and has unlimited potential, but immediately encounters a credibility crisis, will definitely not feel better.

"That depends on whether the production team will talk like a lion." Paul leaned on the seat and said, "You still don't understand? We have lost the initiative. The eyes of the three major actors have already stared at us through this production team. "

"That idiot Li Kebao, what stupid things did he do as the president of Asia Pacific!"

……

Night, twelve o'clock.

Lin Xiao was counting the latest episodes in the crew, when Qin Xin suddenly came in nervously.

"What's the matter? You look so bad?"

"Yes, someone wants to see you." Qin Xin stuttered a little.

"It's not that I haven't seen anyone, why are you nervous?"

"This, it's different this time!"

"It's director Xu from the China Film Department, and Time Warner's executive officer, Special Commissioner Paul!"

"Crack!" Lin Xiao snapped his fingers and almost laughed out loud, "It's finally here! It's pretty fast!"

Qin Xin was a little dazed, "You...are you happy? They're not here to settle accounts?"

"A settlement? Yes, it is a settlement, but I will settle the accounts for them." He took Qin Xin's hand and said with a smile, "Come on, I'll let you see how Time Warner obediently sent our films to the world !"
