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

Chapter 328 Worst Situation, Best Opportunity
The influence of the Beijing circle on the mainstream media is unprecedented.

Huayi used the Internet to spread rumors about Li Mingyang, and then used mainstream media and celebrity effects to make the final judgment.

Smooth as flowing water, fast, accurate and ruthless!

There is not even room for negotiation.

It is to turn Your Name into a movie that does not entirely belong to Li Mingyang.

How can a person wander around the world without getting stabbed?

Li Mingyang thought that Huayi would get him and the Beijing circle would be in trouble.

But he never expected that Huayi and Beijing Circle would use such a disgusting method.

The biggest insult to a great director is that the movie was not made by you!
"You are so ruthless. If your name breaks 1 billion at the box office, it will only make the voices of doubt louder and will be more disadvantageous to me." Li Mingyang opened Huazi irritably, only to find that the cigarette was already finished.

"This is forcing us to withdraw." Wang Changtian said gloomily.

Huayi's move has linked your name with Chen Jia. No matter how amazing the box office success of your name is, the added value to Li Mingyang will be limited.

A one-man movie, full of glory.

Movies made by two people always lack something.

"If I withdraw now, all my previous efforts will be in vain... This year's opportunity is too good, and the ticket subsidy policy will become more and more stringent. This year is my best chance to reach 1 billion!"

"It's a big problem that Chen Jiashang is involved!"

"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have let Chen Jia go to court to please those people, and I shouldn't have let those people appear in my movie."

"If we withdraw now, we will still make money and not suffer any loss. If we continue to fight, even if your name breaks 1 billion in the box office, the bonus to you will be limited. The Beijing circle will definitely give the greatest credit to Chen Jiashang."

No matter how awesome the big Hong Kong directors are, they cannot integrate into this circle in the mainland.

This is true for Tsui Hark and Stephen Chow.

But Li Mingyang is different. He is from Jinling and graduated from Beijing Film Academy. He is a real local.

Huayi set up the game, and the Beijing circle was involved. The two sides have already torn their faces apart and there is no room for easing.

If the Beijing circle wants to consolidate its position in the domestic entertainment industry, it must suppress him.

Just like what happened to Lao Mouzi.

Li Mingyang doesn't have as many major awards as Zhang Yimou, so even if he does nothing, his reputation will be ruined.

These……

Li Mingyang had anticipated this, so he had always been reluctant to compete for the annual championship.

The Beijing circle holds more than 80% of the resources in the domestic entertainment industry and is the largest and most powerful interest group in the country.

Not to mention Li Mingyang, an outsider.

Even if they are from the Beijing circle and have just made their mark, they will be subjected to all kinds of suppression and education to let them know what the Beijing circle is, who has the final say in the Beijing circle, who they should pay respect to, and who they should not offend...

The Beijing circle dominates the domestic entertainment industry by suppressing its peers, relying on seniority and various unspoken rules.

They teamed up to cheat coal bosses, real estate developers, and the Internet...

Although Zuoshandiao favors the Beijing circle, he did not take action personally. This is good news.

Just as Li Mingyang and Wang Changtian were discussing countermeasures, the publicity and promotion manager of Guangxian came to the office in a panic and told them the bad news.

Wanda canceled all IMAX screenings of Your Name.

There are a total of 17 IMAX screens in China, and Wanda owns 8 of them, more than China Film.

Li Mingyang was able to fight back and forth with Let the Bullets Fly thanks to Wanda's IMAX.

The original price of a ticket is 180, but after the subsidy it is only 19.9. With the low price, you can enjoy an excellent movie-watching experience. Wanda's IMAX theater is almost always full from morning to night, contributing about million in box office revenue a day.

That’s nearly 200 million in a month.

The IMAX venue at Wanda was negotiated with the help of Jing Tian.

Canceled suddenly.

It is bound to bring huge losses to your name at the box office.

Li Mingyang did not call Jing Tian to ask her if she knew about it, or ask her to help get the IMAX theater back.

IMAX+ ticket subsidies have been figured out by everyone and are definitely a powerful tool for boosting box office sales.

The IMAX screening of Your Name was given by Lao Wang, but now he is taking it back.

It must have been carefully thought out.

The next day, in addition to the IMAX theaters in Shanghai and Ping Cinema, The Orphan of Zhao continued to be shown.

There are 16 halls left, Let the Bullets Fly got 5 halls, and If You Are the One 2 got 11 halls.

Among them, Wanda’s IMAX theaters are used for If You Are the One 2.

Huayi pulled Wanda onto its warship and sprinted towards a billion box office...

……

The Your Name director scandal not only affected Li Mingyang's reputation, but was also serious enough to affect capital investment.

Guangxian’s stock price hit the limit down.

This was something neither Li Mingyang nor Wang Changtian had expected.

What is even more unexpected is that BAT, which has been watching the show, finally came to an end.

Penguin supports Yinghuang and Alibaba supports Huayi.

Baidu supports light...

Penguin and Alibaba are both targeting the billion-dollar directors in mainland China.

Your name no longer completely belongs to Li Mingyang, and with the involvement of Hong Kong directors, public opinion has already fermented and it cannot be cleared at all.

Both Penguin and Alibaba gave up Li Mingyang.

Turn to support Feng Kuzi and Jiang Wen.

Baidu's move at this time was not to help Li Mingyang, but to have the idea of ​​ticket subsidies. Baidu wanted to get involved in ticket subsidies and wanted shares in Maoyan.

Li Mingyang sat on the balcony, drinking hot water and watching the snowflakes falling.

It snowed extremely heavily in Hengdian this year. It snowed heavily for several days, and the Lanhuayu Bank was covered in silver and white.

"We still have to fight... If you destroy my reputation, I will make your billion-dollar director worthless!"

With the investment from Penguin and Alibaba, it is only a matter of time before Let the Bullets Fly and If You Are the One 2 break billion.

Li Mingyang put down the cup, stood up and went back to the room, changed into a black sweatshirt, left home, and walked to Mingyang Entertainment.

On the way, he sorted out the current situation and the development history of the domestic film market.

This year is his best chance to become a billion-dollar director.

No chance next year.

11 will be the most difficult year for domestic films.

Transformers 3 is coming, becoming the first film in mainland China to gross over million yuan in a single day!

In the mainland, the revenue reached 4 million in five days, million in sixteen days, and over billion in one month.

It destroyed all domestic film records.

After more than a month of release, the film grossed 10.9 billion yuan at the box office. Before it was taken off the screen, the single-day box office was still over million yuan...

In 11, in addition to the billion-dollar blockbuster Transformers 3, there were also Kung Fu Panda 2, Pirates of the Caribbean 4, the last Harry Potter film, Deathly Hallows: Part Two, G.I. Joe: 2, Fast and Furious 6, Rise of the Planet of the Apes...

This year can be said to be the worst year for domestic films.

The annual champion was Zhang Yimou's The Flowers of War, with a box office of less than 600 million...

Until the box office war ends this year, Hollywood blockbusters will not get ticket subsidies.

There will also be ticket subsidies for Hollywood blockbusters next year.

This is due to policy reasons between China and the United States. Domestic films will usher in the worst year.

"call……"

Li Mingyang returned to Mingyang Entertainment and called a mobilization meeting for all employees.

Everyone stops what they are doing and shifts their focus to marketing and promoting your name.

After the meeting, Li Mingyang called Wang Changtian again.

Despite the director controversy and the lack of IMAX guarantee, Your Name's box office has been strong over the past two days.

1月4日、1月5日两天一共拿下3900万票房，票房终于破4亿了！

However, If You Are the One 2 only earned 3000 million in box office revenue in the past two days.

This is the box office revenue achieved during non-weekend periods, and Wang Changtian is shouting to stop.

In fact, he had no intention of stopping. He went to Shanghai to find Zhang Zhao last night, wanting to take advantage of Shanghai Film's location in Shanghai.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Wang Changtian was surprised by Li Mingyang's words.

Li Mingyang actually asked him to make a new copy and add Chen Jiashang's name in the director column.

And Chen Jiashang's name should be placed before his.

"If they dare to cheat me, I will make the billion-dollar director worthless... I have been thinking about it for a whole day and night. I have too few movies. Chen Jia has been a director for decades and has made too many good movies, more than Jiang Wen and Feng Kuzi combined. If I promote Chen Jia, I will use him to suppress Feng Kuzi and Jiang Wen!"

Wang Changtian frowned slightly, feeling that Li Mingyang's method was as dark as Huayi's, and his thinking was a bit too... Chen Jiashang was from the Hong Kong circle! Zuo Shandiao would definitely be unhappy when he looked back.

"Okay... I'll have someone take care of it."

"Boss Wang, you need to handle this more cleanly! When you change the film source, take back all the original sources and destroy them. The people in the cinema chain are not clean. They dare not engage in piracy, but they pretend to obey and do not change the film source. It is a piece of cake."

"I will destroy it myself."

"By the way, I'm going to post on Weibo to admit that your name was taken by Chen Jiashang and I, but I won't take the blame, and Zuoshandiao certainly won't take it either, so you have to take it."

"..."

Wang Changtian hung up the phone and suddenly felt something was wrong.

As for Chen Jia, that coward, even Li Mingyang couldn't control him.

Even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to suppress Jiang Wen and Feng Kuazi!
What's the point of lifting him?

"But there is no other solution at the moment. We need to end this farce as soon as possible..."

As he spoke, Wang Changtian called the publicity and promotion manager of Guangxian and asked them to make a new copy, change the director's column, and take back the original film source and destroy it.

"Boss Wang, this is not necessary. We will lose millions if we do this..."

"I asked you to do things, not to give suggestions."

Wang Changtian hung up the phone and walked back to the box.

He sat down, glanced at the nervous Chen Jiashang, then looked at his senior brother Zhang Zhao and Director Ren of Shanghai Film Studio.

When Director Ren saw Wang Changtian coming back, he continued the previous topic.

Shanghai Film Group is willing to help, but the prerequisite is that the controversy surrounding Li Mingyang's directorial career must be suppressed and resolved as soon as possible.

The controversy surrounding the director of Your Name has caused a lot of controversy.

Chen Kaizi was also affected, and netizens began to question whether Farewell My Concubine was filmed by his father.

It’s hard to say who filmed Farewell My Concubine.

In order to support his son, Chen Kaizi's father recruited the most luxurious production team and actors at the time, and went to the set in person to serve as the artistic director and guide Chen Kaizi step by step.

Exactly the same thing happened to Li Mingyang.

Originally, the release of Orphan of Zhao was postponed, which was a sure win for Earthquake, and both Shanghai Film Group and Chen Kaizi were very happy about it.

But the happiness lasted only two days before Yuchi was affected. Both Shanghai Film Group and Chen Kaizi were very unhappy.

"I understand what Director Ren means. In three days at most, no one will discuss the name of your director."

Director Ren nodded and said, "I will try my best to arrange the screening in Shanghai, but I cannot arrange the IMAX in Heping Film City."

Wang Changtian no longer has any idea about IMAX. An IMAX screen will have little impact on the overall situation.
