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

Chapter 601: The exchange meeting was bombarded, and the little steel cannon was left with teeth on the ground

The second reporter, also a foreigner, asked Brother Kaizi.

I asked Brother Kaizi if he would doubt himself if the box office results he searched for did not meet expectations.

Search for releases in mid-September.

This question is even more damn sharp than the one Liu Yan asked him, "If the box office doesn't meet expectations, will your self-esteem be hurt?"

Brother Kaizi didn't get mad, and didn't say, "Your question is so rude! It's like when your baby is one month old, and I ask you what would you do if your baby died?"

Instead, he said with a smile, "Since the existence of human beings, there has been searching, searching for truth, searching for human mysteries. Searching is the most common behavior of human beings. The search will never stop until the truth comes to the surface. Everyone is searching for the truth, but everyone gets only partial truth in life, which is not enough to explain what the truth is. Yao Chen, who played the reporter Chen Ruoxi in the movie, once said that everyone strives to get closer to the truth in life, but the truth in life is the most difficult to understand. This sentence explains what this movie is about."

No answer.

I could hear the words clearly, but when they were put together I had no idea what they meant.

Li Mingyang was stunned.

The foreign reporter sat down with a confused look on his face, and looking around, everyone was also confused.

The third reporter was from China and he asked Jiang Wen what he was busy with recently.

"What are you busy with? Of course, you're busy filming a movie!"

Jiang Wen's words were brief, but their meaning was profound.

Brother Cheap is busy with a movie now, but it's all in vain.

It’s time to stop bragging.

Next... every director was asked a question once, except Li Mingyang.

But Li Mingyang doesn't think he won't be asked questions.

There may be more than one problem...

"Director Li, after watching New World, many netizens thought you were making insinuations about the Tohoku film industry, comparing it to the mafia. What do you think?"

coming!

Li Mingyang suddenly became nervous and pulled the microphone on the stage towards himself. "I have read those deconstruction posts about this matter. I have to say that the netizens' imagination is very good, but it is a bit unrealistic."

"These netizens really should come to Huahua Entertainment for further study, and then go out and experience what the mainland film industry is like."

"The gangs that are well known to domestic audiences and to me mostly come from Hong Kong movies. In Hong Kong movies, as long as a gang member has real skills, dares to fight and can make money for the gang, he will be the leader, and all the gang elders will be very happy. However, in the domestic film industry, real skills are useless, and background is what matters."

"I have a friend who made double 1 billion box office for two consecutive years, but in the end, he didn't win any of the three major domestic awards, Water Chicken Award, Water Horse Award, and Water Man Award, because he had no background and had to give way to those with backgrounds."

"My friend, what I hear most is next time, next time, next time. Three years. How many three years can a person have in his life? How many three years can a person have in his talent?"

“Those netizens who compare the domestic film industry to the Hey Gang are very stupid and naive. They don’t understand how cruel the Dongda film industry is!”

The audience was quiet and the stage was dead silent.

Everyone was shocked by Li Mingyang’s words!

After more than half a year, Li Mingyang participated in the official event again. No one expected that Li Mingyang would be so powerful! So amazing!

In front of Chinese and foreign media, he blasted the Dongda film industry.

Some are secretly happy, some are deep in thought, some are watching the show, some are feeling uncomfortable, some are gloating, and some are feeling sad...

Li Mingyang took a sip of water, moved the microphone closer, and said in a resounding voice: "Next question!"

Xiao Sa's face twitched slightly, and instinctively he wanted to stop the interview to save the situation.

He also sincerely admires Li Mingyang!
The two movies he made in China made many big directors lose their temper, but he is still full of energy in Korea. His game "Goodbye My Soul Mate" made it into the top ten of the year in Korea.

New World won the award at Cannes, Korean local film became a hit, and it is the only 19-ban film in Korean film history to have grossed over 10 million.

As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake.

But Li Mingyang did it! He was a big hit in his native country!

Xiao Sa looked at his leader and asked for instructions, but the leader didn't respond, and seemed to have acquiesced...

"Director Li, as a director who has achieved excellent box office results in both China and South Korea, can you briefly talk about the differences between the Chinese and Korean film markets?"

The questions were still asked in the order previously determined, and Li Mingyang was still being asked questions.

"Where are you from, journalist?"

"Ta Kung Pao."

It turned out to be a reporter from Hong Kong.

"Excellent box office results? Mr. reporter, do you have any misunderstanding about the No. 1 and No. 2 Chinese box office results? Do you have any misunderstanding about the Korean movie mobilization reaching over 10 million? Please, can you check more information and stop making such a joke?"

Li Mingyang sarcastically criticized the other party's professional ability and grinned: "The Chinese and Korean film markets are completely incomparable. Before talking about the market, we must first understand the differences in production."

"Koreans use a grading system, and are free to create. People can think and shoot as they please, and there is no censorship. In China, censorship runs through the entire process, so how can we compare?"

"As for production costs, there are many low-budget movies in Korea, and every year there are many successful ones that make a lot of money. For example, last year's Sunshine cost only over one million yuan, but the box office reached 3 million yuan! The return on investment is as high as 273 times!"

"For example, my Goodbye cost 250 million won, about 60 million RMB, and the current return on investment is more than times."

"It is common for Koreans to win big with a small investment, but in the country, winning big with a small investment is a dark horse miracle."

"Comparing what?! The Dongda film market still has a long way to go!"

"But when it comes to directors themselves, our directors at the University of Tokyo are very strong. In terms of artistic achievements, just look at the number of the three major European awards. South Korea does not even have one of the three highest European awards. In terms of box office, the ceiling of the University of Tokyo's movies is 11.39 billion."

"Directors from the University of Tokyo are better than directors from Taiwan in every aspect... at least that's the case now, but it's hard to say what will happen in the future."

Li Mingyang paused, took a sip of water, and looked at Zhang Yimou. "I regret not being able to catch up with Director Zhang's peak period and fight him at his peak period. I hope Director Zhang can regroup as soon as possible after dealing with his personal affairs. We will fight again in the future!"

After he finished speaking, Li Mingyang paused for a moment because his microphone was muted, but he still continued to finish his words.

"Dear guests, the exchange meeting has been going on for a long time. I'm sure everyone must be very tired. Let's take a break..." Xiao Sa hurried forward to help.

At this point, rest is obviously just an excuse.

Domestic reporters left the event, and foreign reporters were dissatisfied and went to negotiate with the organizers.

Many people felt confused. Li Mingyang was a sharp-tongued person and he had made so many explosive remarks before, but why was his microphone muted when he mentioned Zhang Yimou?

"Teacher Sa, please quietly give the headphones to Li Mingyang."

Xiao Sa heard the leader's voice in his ears, he immediately took off his headphones, came to Li Mingyang, handed his microphone to Li Mingyang, and while Li Mingyang was taking the microphone, he also handed the headphones to him.

Seeing Li Mingyang lowering his head to put on headphones, Xiao Sa felt relieved.

Originally, he was not the host of this exchange meeting, but later Li Mingyang attended and specially called him over.

I'm just worried that Li Mingyang will cause trouble.

Xiao Sa felt that Li Mingyang was no longer causing trouble. He had come into contact with Li Mingyang many times. In the past, Li Mingyang was a little crazy and unruly.

But he is very experienced in dealing with people and knows that there are some things he can say and some things he cannot say.

Li Mingyang is simply chasing himself away today!
I’m afraid I’ll come back…

……

"Are you mentally ill? You can't bully Zhang Yimou! You'd better be lucky if you can achieve half of his artistic achievements in this life!"

"One last question, think about it first!" The voice of Zuoshandiao came from the headphones.

Li Mingyang has made his choice!

He thought that no matter what happened, he would not lose his composure.

However, Zuoshandiao's words were like a knife stabbing into Li Mingyang's heart.

Lao Mouzi’s artistic achievements are outrageously high!

He won the Best Actor award at the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards.

He has won the mainland's Golden Rooster, Hundred Flowers, Huabiao Director Awards and Best Film awards more than twenty times.

The three major European medals include two Golden Lions and one Golden Bear.

His artistic achievements cover three major fields: directing, photography, and acting, and he has won more than 500 international and domestic awards and nominations!

No matter what, Zhang Yimou's artistic achievements were recognized by the three major European organizations!

The right to speak on global film art and culture is in the hands of Westerners.

Lao Mouzi was the undisputed pioneer of the Dongda film era at that time!
No one has gone before!

Relying on their strong discourse power and communication system, Western countries have formed a monopoly and cultural blockade on the global film market.

If filmmakers from the University of Tokyo want to gain recognition in the West, they have no other choice but to sell G!
Zhang Yimou was obsessed with Oscars, so he hired a Hollywood team and filmed The Flowers of War, hoping to sell well and win praise. However, who would have thought that in the end, he was not even nominated for an Oscar, and instead got into trouble and was accused by the Hollywood media of disrespecting history.

The Western cultural blockade is too difficult!

There will be no one to come after him...

Li Mingyang still doesn’t understand why his New World won an award at Cannes!
But in the country, there is no New World! Winning Cannes is sheer nonsense!
Zuoshandiao's words did not calm Li Mingyang down, but stimulated him!

Ten minutes later, the interview continued.

A Sohu reporter stood up and asked, "Director Li, you have filmed many movies in Korea this year, and achieved many results that shocked the industry, but I have not heard of any news about you filming movies in mainland China. Are you keeping it a secret, or are you not planning to film movies in mainland China?"

After he finished speaking, the place fell silent, and everyone's eyes turned to Li Mingyang on the stage.

This question was specially prepared for him.

Return to China or stay abroad, choose one!

If you want to return to your country, answer it well.

Li Mingyang looked around and grinned at the famous domestic directors who were on the same stage with him.

This smile made all the big directors feel cold all over.

It was as if being stared at by a poisonous snake.

"Which movie has the highest box office in China this year?" Li Mingyang asked the reporter.

"Painted Skin 2, 8.37 million." the reporter replied.

Li Mingyang shook his head: "The box office is okay... I am a person who likes challenges. In the Dongda Film Market, I am the No. 1 and No. 2 in the history of Chinese-language films. Who should I challenge?"

"Challenge Director Zhang? I won last time... Challenge Dugu Qiubai Feng Xiaogang? He's right here, ask him if he dares to release his film at the same time as mine! Challenge Director Chen? Let's wait until he gets over 500 million first."

Li Mingyang squeezed out the three major directors in mainland China in one breath.

Deep down, Li Mingyang really hoped that the three of them could make a few rebuttals.

Who would have thought that the three of them not only did not refute, but also smiled. If you didn't know, you would have thought they were talking about Jiang Wen.

Jiang Wen had a bitter face and was out of tune with the other directors.

Seeing that no one responded, Li Mingyang smiled, took off his sunglasses, and continued to say something shocking.

"Today's Dongda Films is not short of audiences. What it lacks is directors who can make films that audiences like!"

"Art is art, and business is business. There are a large number of directors in China who make movies that the audience cannot understand under the banner of art films, pretending to be profound. In the end, the box office is not good, and the directors blame the audience for not appreciating it! What kind of logic is this?"

“Why should the audience pay for rubbish movies?”

"Since you have chosen to go for awards, don't have too high expectations for the box office. Art is only for a small number of people, and most audiences only care about whether the movie is good or not!"

"I'm talking about you, Director Feng."

Feng Kuazi's face changed.

He really didn't expect that Li Mingyang would directly attack him in public at such an important Sino-foreign exchange meeting!
A bunch of leaders are watching you. I want to see how you die!
Feng Kuazi was secretly complaining in his heart, with a cold face and no words.

"Director Feng once said that whatever I shoot has box office success. Entertainment movies have box office success, and serious movies that are not entertainment movies also have box office success."

"This kind of thinking is unacceptable. Director Feng's previous success has made him lose sight of his own abilities. You don't understand business or art. You are just a peasant who succeeded by reaping the benefits of the times. Forcing a balance will only dig your own grave!"

"Although you were defeated by me, although you nicknamed me Li Monkey, and although your character is questionable."

"But it is undeniable that before I showed up, you were indeed the box office king in China, you were indeed a big commercial director, and you were indeed one of the few in China who could make good commercial films!"

"I advise Director Feng to either make commercial films or just hang around for a few more years... or if you make art films to win awards and keep your position, you're doomed!"

Bang!
Feng Kuazi slammed the table and stood up, pointing at Li Mingyang and cursing, "You little brat, who are you calling a jerk!"

"I thought you were dead." Li Mingyang teased and stood up to confront him!
Seeing the situation getting out of control, Xiao Sa rushed to take control of the situation, and other directors also stood up to persuade Li Mingyang and Feng Kuzi to calm down.

The flash lights were flashing at the scene, and the media reporters in the audience were hoping that the two would fight, the more intense the better.

But this was just a thought, and soon the original order was restored on the stage.

After all, there are so many big leaders in the audience, including many world-renowned foreign filmmakers.

"Don't you want to come back? Now is the best opportunity, don't act on impulse..."

Li Mingyang was too lazy to listen to Zuoshandiao's nagging, so he took off his headphones and threw them to the ground.

I raised the microphone and was about to continue firing, but it was muted!

“Film is an art form that showcases human emotions, thoughts and life experiences in a unique way. We hope to further develop extensive cooperation with Chinese and foreign film production organizations and individuals, jointly tell Chinese stories in the new era, and inject new impetus and vitality into global film cooperation and development…”

Xiao Sa read the script and promoted the highlight of this exchange meeting - film project venture capital!
No one at the scene cared about what Xiao Sa said. They all looked at the directors who were asked to leave by the staff.

Just when everyone thought there was no explosive news, Li Mingyang stood in front of the steps and refused to move.

While Xiao Sa was reading his manuscript, he observed Li Mingyang out of the corner of his eye.

He was complaining in his heart, it was obvious that Li Mingyang wanted to cause trouble again.

Just as he was waiting for his leader to resolve the issue.

Li Mingyang moved, taking big strides towards Feng Pants.

Feng Kuazi was too lazy to deal with the crazy Li Mingyang. Anyway, Li Houzi's attitude was clear and he had no intention of coming back.

He is just a broken jar and is targeting him and dragging him into the water.

Feng Kuzi is a smart man. He bullies the weak and fears the strong. He knows when to endure and when to take action.

With so many important leaders present, it doesn’t matter if I get a little upset. Anyway, my biggest enemy is unlikely to come back, and the future will be good.

Feng Kuazi stood there, looking at Li Mingyang coldly.

The others were all very nervous when they saw this.

You should know that there is this.
They will never go on stage, how much fun it is to watch the show from the audience!
As everyone was looking at him, Li Mingyang whispered something into Feng Kuazi's ear.

"Fuck you! How dare you!" Feng Kuazi suddenly got furious and pushed Li Mingyang angrily.

With one push, the 1.8-meter-tall Li Mingyang was knocked to the ground and rolled twice.

Haha! You were the one who started it!
Jiang Wen was quick to hug Li Mingyang who was standing up.

This brother of his is famous for being strong! The little cannon started it first, isn't this courting death?
Not only Jiang Wen knew this truth, but everyone else also knew it clearly. Some people tried to pull Feng's pants and run away, such as Lu Sang.

Some people, like Zhang Yimou, still give advice when they are old.

Some strong people stepped forward to stop them, such as Jiang Wen, Er Dongshen, Wu Ershan...

However, everyone underestimated Li Mingyang's determination and agility.

Li Mingyang carried several people, and rushed out of the crowd with his big hands ready to go. He grabbed Feng Kuazi's arm and pulled him into the crowd!

Feng Kuazi cried out and fell to the ground!

The scene was in chaos!
After the security guards came on stage and separated the crowd, three strong security guards controlled Li Mingyang.

On the other side, Feng Kuazi was left unattended, his two front teeth were missing, and he was looking for them all over the ground...

……

"Shocked! Li Mingyang openly fights!"

"Li Mingyang beat up Feng Kuzi!"

"At the International Film Exchange Conference, Li Mingyang criticized three major mainland directors!"

"Beating people! Slandering! Arrogant! Li Mingyang caused a scene at the international exchange conference!"

"Li Mingyang left without saying goodbye and openly broke with the mainland film industry!"

"The former box office king is full of minions."

In less than an hour, the internet was filled with explosive news about the international film exchange conference.

The short video of Li Mingyang fighting at the scene went viral online.

The multi-angle photos of Feng's teeth sticking out of his pants made the front pages of major entertainment news.

The public opinion on Weibo was overwhelming, with all the hot searches being about the International Exchange Conference, and Li Mingyang alone had three hot searches!

Usually, only Li Mingyang would be on the hot search list, and he would definitely be ranked first.

But the number one hot search this time was not Li Mingyang, but Feng Pants.

'Little Steel Cannon' is far ahead and tops the list.

The photos taken from multiple angles vividly and accurately conveyed to the majority of netizens the miserable state of Feng Pants with his claws all over the ground.

It's around eight o'clock in the evening.

A short video of the exchange meeting was leaked and went viral on Weibo.

Li Mingyang dragged Feng Pants into the crowd. The scene was so chaotic, like a street fight, that all his friends were stunned!
