After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 148 Girlhood
Zuoshandiao has been promoting the industrialization of domestic films and has been blocking many Hollywood blockbusters.

This caters to the superiors' wishes.

In 2004, a verbal notice was issued from above, urging all theater chains across the country to support domestic films. From June 6th to July 10th each year, the introduction of overseas blockbuster films was discouraged.

It’s just that Zuoshandiao has gone even further, causing imported films to fight among themselves... giving domestic films more room to develop.

This is just the release, and when it comes to selling films, both sides have many more tricks up their sleeves.

Hollywood is particularly annoyed by Zashan Diao and has used diplomatic means to deal with him more than once.

This time it was a success.

The Founding of a Republic did not surpass Transformers 2, but it was also the number one domestic film in mainland China.

But for Zuoshandiao, this was a slap in the face.

And his subsequent support for domestic films was unprecedented...

The Founding of a Nation was a huge hit, with countless people from the domestic entertainment industry booking out theaters to support it.

From the time it was released to the end of National Day, Li Mingyang was forced to go to Hengdian Cinema and watch "The Founding of a Republic" eight times.

I have to go, take photos, and be interviewed by reporters...

Wu Jing, Zhen Zhidan and Jing Tian, ​​as founding actors, did not receive such treatment.

On October 10, the twelfth episode of Super Power Peak Battle started recording.

Mud battle, catapult chair, acupressure board, horror box, bell man, guess the song title, you draw and I guess, megaphone, pushing each other on the underwater float...all these fun games have been used.

For the last episode, Li Mingyang couldn’t think of any classic songs, so he checked online and found out that The Voice of Holland hadn’t come out yet.

Then came Running Man - the swivel chair version of The Voice of China.

Change the guest's voice through a voice changer and then select the person.

The number of guests this time was unprecedented, with twelve people coming.

Girls' Generation 9 members.

Girls' Generation is a legend in South Korea. They opened the heyday of South Korea's girl groups, broke the curse that girl groups would only be popular for three years, and proved that girl groups could also defeat boy groups and reach the top, becoming the veritable "Korean Queen".

Girls’ Generation only debuted in 07, just two years ago, but as a phenomenal second-generation girl group that has become popular all over Asia...

Mango TV and Korea have collaborated too much. SM Entertainment did not want to offend Mango TV, but also wanted to make money. After more than a month of struggling, they finally came up with a compromise of shooting in Korea.

Wang Changtian struggled for more than a month and finally asked Li Mingyang what he thought.

Under normal circumstances, if you go to Korea, just go to Korea, have some fun in Myeongdong, and treat it as a trip.

However, now all three projects are being promoted in Hengdian, so why bother going there?

Li Mingyang disagreed.

Just like that, both of them gave up. But after a week, Lee Soo Man agreed to come to the mainland again, but he wanted more money. He asked for a huge amount, from the original 5 million to 10 million.

Doubled.

He also said that this was much more cost-effective than going to Bangzi to shoot. After all, the cost of food, clothing, housing and transportation for more than 400 people was not a small amount. Just three meals a day would cost hundreds of thousands...

Li Mingyang wanted to strangle him to death at that time.

Didn't agree.

Later, One Punch Man's agent found out and talked with Lee Soo Man for a week, and finally the two sides reached a deal for eight million.

This price is ridiculously expensive.

8 million per issue.

As Asia's top action star, Zhen Zhidan only gets one million per episode...

It's really a robbery...

The other three were Yuan Bin, Eddie Peng, and A-Zu.

A-Zu was called by Zhen Zhidan.

Eddie Peng is not the Tumbling Ashin yet, he can only be described as a sporty boy, but Li Mingyang has never seen him on Running Man, so he wanted to take a look.

Just let Wang Changtian call him.

He is very confused now. He just terminated his contract with the agency and is currently involved in a lawsuit. There is not much work to do. He is writing books and singing, but there are no roles to play.

After considering it for a few days, I agreed.

Won Bin had been in the plan for a long time, but he was very busy and didn't have time until the last episode.

The pay he asked for was not high, just 500,000, and he wanted it just for Zhen Zhidan.

He is now at the peak of his acting career, but it is not his peak yet. Next year's Big Uncle will be released, and that will be his peak.

But he is quite special. He only made five movies in total, including action movies and art films... He retired at the peak of his career and really never made any more movies.

The selection process for The Voice of China is conducted at Mingyang Entertainment.

There are three captains: Wu Jing, Zhen Zhidan, and One Punch Man.

A maximum of seven people can be selected from each group.

The rules are similar to those of The Voice of China. The guests use voice-changing microphones and sing a cappella. When one person turns around, the guest automatically joins the captain's team.

If many people turn around, the initiative will be in the hands of the guest.

776, there must be one person missing in one group.

There are 11 female guests and six male guests.

Korean stars have all been on variety shows. Some are good, some are not, but they are all familiar with variety show recording and can get into the state quickly.

But 20 people is too many. The selection of the voice of good people, the indoor swimming pool catapult flying chair, and the water holding segment were filmed until after 10 o'clock in the evening, and they were not finished yet...

We continued recording the next day, finishing all the water holding parts in the morning. In the afternoon, we arrived at the Ming and Qing Palace to shoot the super power peak name tag tearing.

Due to the lack of experience behind the scenes and the lack of rigor in the transitions, the filming was in serious chaos. Won Bin wandered off and wandered off to the prison...

It was not known whether Yoona and Jessica did not sleep well or were just too tired, as they fainted while filming.

We filmed for more than two hours, but we didn’t run into anyone. That was the funniest part. We each filmed our own...

Stop recording midway, send those who need to be sent to the hospital, organize those who need to be organized, and start the test again if necessary.

Then during the test, Li Mingyang discovered that the Ming and Qing Palaces were really too huge.

Playing hide-and-seek is difficult enough, and tearing off name tags is even more difficult, especially outside the iconic Golden Throne Hall. It is too open and too easy to be exposed. Running around will make you tired to death... and it's not fun at all.

"Why don't we go to another place? This place is too big." Wang Changtian glanced at the magnificent Ming and Qing palaces and hated this place for the first time.

"Change? How can we change? We've already filmed in schools, libraries, buildings, and hotels. There are crews at other scenic spots. The crew is spending hundreds of thousands a day now. The budget has been seriously overspent. If we delay any further, Lao Gu will definitely call us in!"

Wang Changtian smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was wondering why Mango didn’t shoot in the Ming and Qing Palaces. This place is really too big...

Seeing that it was getting dark, the crew wrapped up work and returned to Mingyang Entertainment to discuss how to proceed.

There were hundreds of people attending the huge conference room, and both sides of the long conference table were filled with people.

When the agreed meeting time came, Li Mingyang raised his hand to signal Wu Zhikui to close the door.

"Everyone knows the current situation. We can't change the location, so we can only shoot in the Ming and Qing Palaces. We worked together to come up with a good idea to design the name tag tearing process."

Everyone has thought of most of the solutions today.

For example, restricting areas, avoiding the Golden Palace area, shortening the process, reducing the number of mission props... But if we do this, what is the point of shooting in the Ming and Qing palaces.

It would be better to set up a school.

At least there is a sense of immersion and the flavor of everyday life.

If the final battle is not perfect, what is the point of working so hard before?
It starts off strong but ends weakly, it starts high but ends low, which is a very damaging thing to the reputation.

As Li Mingyang continued to deny, the conference room suddenly fell silent.

Almost everyone thought that this film couldn't be continued.

"Why don't we go to Wanda Plaza? The nearest Wanda Plaza is in Hangzhou, so it's quite close." Jing Tian put down his phone and said.

"I think this is a good suggestion." Wang Changtian said immediately.

Others also thought it was good. Wanda Plaza is very iconic, with a large interior space and rich scenes. The stacked large hollow structure is also conducive to filming.

"Whose responsibility is it if it falls down?" Li Mingyang asked back.

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent.

Jing Tian was unhappy, so he picked up his phone and ignored it.

After a while, Wang Changtian tried to smooth things over, "Forget it, I'll go to Hengdian to negotiate."

Wang Changtian stood up, took the thermos cup and went out.

The others looked at Li Mingyang, the meaning was obvious, you decide...

"The meeting is adjourned. We will discuss this issue tomorrow."

Soon, everyone in the conference room left.

In the empty conference room, Li Mingyang tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table.

Da da da da da…

What method should be used? There should be a method. Where has it appeared?

Li Mingyang was recalling when Wang Changtian came back with someone following him.

It was Manager Lian, whom I had met once before.

"Director Li, long time no see, haha." Manager Lian greeted him and casually pulled out a seat and sat down.

"It is an honor to have the general manager of Perfect Film and Television here." Li Mingyang said with a smile.

"It's all just empty reputation, and now it's even losing money." Manager Lian took out a cigarette from his pocket, gave one to the two, then lit one for himself, pulled out the chair next to Li Mingyang, and sat down. "I roughly understand what you are doing. Are you trying to use Youku to play with capital?"

"That's about right. Are you interested?" Wang Changtian said.

"I'm not interested. I don't think Youku can be compared to Tudou. Sohu set up the anti-piracy alliance to deliberately target Youku. Although Youku has deleted all pirated and infringing videos during this period, the previous infringement facts cannot be deleted."

Manager Lian laughed, "Tudou can be the leader in the video industry. Its operation and planning of video websites are much better than Lao Gu's. Lao Gu is good at capital management and nothing else."

"If you don't think it's good, why did you come?" Li Mingyang asked curiously.

"I don't like to add icing on the cake." Manager Lian pulled back a handful of hair and said in a deep voice: "Do you know why Mango TV hasn't aired Running Man yet?"

Running Man has been approved for over a month, with trailers airing every day, and finally yesterday, it was confirmed to be this Sunday.

Wang Changtian was also puzzled. After being tricked by Mango last time, he became suspicious and had begun to question the source of the news. He simply stopped believing it at all.

Now I am completely in the dark.

“Baidu wants to do simultaneous broadcasting, right?” Li Mingyang said.

Manager Lian gave a thumbs up and said, "You are a great underappreciator for being a director. You have a great business sense."

"As for the benefits, there are only so many advertisers who can afford to pay. Baidu has had enough mangoes. What else can it eat?"

"Indeed, you have been very peaceful recently, but they got into chaos first. Baidu's video website iQiyi will be online in two days. Both parties have copies. Mango TV won't spit out what it has in its mouth, so iQiyi dares to launch Running Man in advance. At most, they won't charge for the advertising, and I will grab the market."

Li Mingyang was stunned. iQiyi.com was launched on April 2010, 4.

This is more than half a year ahead of schedule!
