Feng Shui Secrets of the Entertainment Industry
Chapter 642 Mahan's Call
in the country, you need to know how to listen.
Some things, while permissible in principle, are simply not permissible.
If it is not allowed in principle, then it is allowed.
"It's about the core terms, filming rights, framing area, and subject matter—everything needs to be discussed bit by bit. Don't be afraid of taking up time; it has to be extremely detailed," Director Li continued.
Hearing this, I felt even more confident.
It has to be Master Liu; his skills are extraordinary from the start.
This is the most precise and reliable method of control.
On the surface, we will not break off relations or halt cultural co-production projects, so as not to give outsiders an excuse for being closed-minded and xenophobic.
Behind the scenes, they meticulously scrutinize every detail, here and there. For a film, especially one with an investment of hundreds of millions, it's not unreasonable to spend several years meticulously scrutinizing every detail to protect the interests of investors, right?
If you keep cutting corners, the project will eventually fall through.
No wonder Jiro Tatsuta and the others' smiles were so forced; being from the same cultural circle, they understood very well what "in principle" meant!
I don't know how many years they've been planning this, but I'm sure it's been a long time.
For example, the Sabre Tower they built in Shanghai, also known as the Shanghai World Financial Center.
This building, which claims to be the world's tallest, has 101 floors above ground and is 492 meters tall. Its shape resembles two samurai swords supporting a red sun.
The meaning behind this is self-evident.
Was this design just a spur-of-the-moment decision?
Such a plan simply cannot be devised without five or even ten years of planning.
To shape the world's tallest building into the form of a military knife, creating a "sky-slashing evil spirit," one can imagine how powerful its evil aura is. More importantly, what does this military knife intend to slash at?
Even a fool could know that.
This Saber Building faces the Huangpu River directly, as if it wants to cut the Huangpu River in half with a sword, and further sever the dragon vein of Shanghai.
The idea was good and it was implemented, but it was cracked, leading to the creation of the Shanghai Tower and Jin Mao Tower.
The Shanghai Center Tower is a spiraling, encircling building with a completely transparent glass exterior, resembling a tornado as it stands next to the Sabre Tower.
A tornado can shatter the Heavenly Slash and throw its malevolent energy far away.
During the throwing process, some negative energy will seep through the glass and surround the building, turning into nourishment for the building.
Meanwhile, the Jin Mao Tower, resembling both a pagoda and the purple-gold bamboo-shaped steel whip of the door god Yuchi Gong, was also busy.
The Jin Mao Tower's role in feng shui is simple: it acts as a pagoda protecting the river, its pagoda shape safeguarding the jade belt-like pattern that encircles the Huangpu River.
Furthermore, the image of the purple-gold bamboo-jointed steel whip can dispel the excess evil energy of the military knife building and the double-knife-supporting-the-sun formation.
It can be said that the Japanese people's painstaking plan to sever the dragon vein of Southeast China and undermine the economic and financial status of Shanghai has been thwarted.
It now seems that the Japanese are still up to no good, trying one trick after another, and want to use the opportunity of co-producing a movie to sabotage the feng shui of the elevated Nine Dragon Pillars.
This kind of planning, which has been going on for decades or even centuries, is what we need to be most wary of.
The Japanese were well aware that the century-long feud between the Great Xia and them would inevitably be settled in the future, with certain individuals and forces being brought to justice.
They didn't want to be purged, much less act as our lackeys, so for decades they have been plotting how to bring down Da Xia.
These methods include, but are not limited to, finance, politics, feng shui, and culture; they are willing to try any means that can bring us down.
The person who knows you best is always your enemy.
In terms of destroying the Great Xia, the Fusang people were actually more proactive than the American people.
For example, after the feng shui of the Sabre Building was broken, they immediately came up with a new idea and set their sights on the Nine Dragon Pillars.
I strongly suspect that the Kowloon Pillars were a backup plan they had prepared for many years.
Since the Sabre Building project failed, they brought out their alternative plan.
Unfortunately, despite their plans and connections, they were ultimately left hanging by a thread by a delaying tactic, rendering all their schemes futile.
"Brother Li, to put it bluntly, we're just giving you the impression that you have a chance, but in reality, we're not letting you actually do anything!" Fatty Lin rolled his eyes and said deliberately.
"That's right, that makes sense!"
Director Li nodded and said, "I think the Japanese have definitely offended someone higher up, or perhaps they've come to the wrong place to seek help!"
"Yes, I think so too!" Fatty Lin continued to play dumb, playing games with Director Li.
Director Li had no vested interest in the matter, but he also disliked the two sycophantic directors and was gleefully watching the spectacle.
Unlike the previous two days, we were in a pretty good mood all day after seeing Jiro Tatsuta and his group get their comeuppance.
As the event was nearing its end in the afternoon, my phone rang. I glanced at it and saw it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello, who is this?"
After the call connected, I spoke normally.
The other person didn't speak, only soft breathing could be heard, as if they were hesitating about something!
"Who is this? I'm hanging up if you don't answer?" I frowned, a little impatient.
"Master Feng, don't hang up, it's me, Ma Han!"
When I told them I was going to hang up, they got a little anxious and revealed their real identity.
"Mahan?"
I was a little surprised, but then I remembered what Hu Ke had said: Ma Han had a dispute with his original agency in Hong Kong, and that company would smear him whenever it was free. So he called for help.
"Yes, it's me!" Mahan hesitated before giving a soft "hmm."
"Brother Han, I heard from Lao Hu that you have a dispute with your agency in Hong Kong. Are you calling to ask us to help you settle things?"
He hesitated and stammered, so I decided to be blunt.
"yes!"
Mahan exhaled and said.
"Our prices aren't cheap!" I said.
"Master Feng, money is not a problem!"
Upon hearing my words, Ma Han's voice suddenly rose in pitch.
"Okay, let's talk in person. We're at the convention center now. Would you like to come over?" I asked.
"I'll come pick you up!" Mahan said immediately.
"Alright, we'll wait for you!"
After saying that, I hung up the phone.
"Brother, Fatty, I know a little about Ma Han!"
Long Nier then spoke up.
"How did you know?" I asked curiously.
"I saw it on the forum!" Long Nier's expression was a little strange.
"No, Nier, what's with that expression?" Fatty Lin pointed at Long Nier's face and said.
"The posts on the forum about Ma Han are a bit exaggerated. They say he took on two strong men in Hong Kong Island all by himself!" Long Nier said hesitantly.
"Grass!"
Lin the Fat and I both swore at the same time. Was it that explosive?
"Ni'er, tell me, what exactly happened!"
The next moment, Fatty Lin got excited, and I got excited too, waiting for Long Nier to explain.
