Chinese entertainment industry in disarray? Hollywood goddess welcomes strict father!

Old Martin was undoubtedly being used as a pawn by Lu Lin, because he was such an idiot who dared to be used as a tool without even knowing what he was doing.

If Lu Lin doesn't crush this idiot who sticks his neck out and hang him on a tree as a warning, how can he let those suckers know the consequences of starting a war?

This is called making an example of someone!

As it turned out, this tactic of making an example of someone to scare others was indeed very effective. Several suckers knew that Lu Lin was just stalling and would never revive the exorbitantly priced IPs he had sold to them, but they still dared not rashly start a war with Lu Lin.

At least two or three days have passed, and Lu Lin has not noticed any moves from those suckers!

Sauron Aragorn, the head of Disney Marvel, and Iger's blonde, mature wife, both bound to the system as a holy couple, privately called Fan Dabing and told him that Disney had held several management meetings, hesitating whether or not to go to war with Lu Lin.

If war isn't waged to force Lu Lin to revive Marvel, the tens of billions of dollars spent on the acquisition will go down the drain, and Disney's current management team will suffer the consequences, including President Iger, who will be forced to resign and apologize.

However, if war breaks out and they are unable to win and force Lu Lin to submit, it won't just be a matter of the hundreds of billions of dollars spent on acquiring Marvel going down the drain; Lu Lin's counterattack will cause even more terrifying losses to Disney.

Disney's business in China, worth hundreds of billions of dollars, will definitely be completely ruined!

In short, Disney's current management is caught in a dilemma, hesitant to move forward or backward, and the other major shareholders are in the same boat!

Lu Lincai was too lazy to waste his energy waiting for them to make a decision. He believed in the principle of "I will not move unless the enemy moves," and he would deal with whatever came his way later.

So for two or three days, he took the core creators of "Shanghai Bund" on a crazy tour of Hollywood talk shows to promote the film's opening weekend box office.

"Some movie fans commented in the live stream chat that you used your financial power to suppress Martin Scorsese's new film, to the point that its screenings in theaters worldwide have almost stopped, and it has been banned in the Chinese market. Movie fans around the world who want to see this master filmmaker's new work can't even find a theater showing it..."

During the Oprah Winfrey Show, the Black female host read out the comments from the live stream, then stared wide-eyed at Lu Lin and asked, "What's your response to this?"

Upon hearing this, Elizabeth Olsen, Scarlett Johansson, and Huang Xiaoming, among others, couldn't help but frown.

I really hate these off-screen Q&A sessions that have nothing to do with the movie!

Ok.

These guys hung out with Lu Lin for a few days.

Some of their tails are sticking up to the sky.

There's an arrogance about him that makes him dislike everyone.

Their emotions were written all over their faces.

but……

Following Lu Lin, one certainly has the right to act arrogantly!

The Black woman noticed the displeasure of the crowd and immediately tried to smooth things over by saying to Lu Lin with a smile, "You can also choose not to answer, let's move on to the next question..."

Lu Lin waved his hand dismissively and said, "There's nothing hard to answer. He messes with me, I'll mess with him. It's that simple."

"Like a line from the TV series 'Shanghai Bund,' women and children can be reckless and make mistakes, but men can't."

"Tolerance is never a man's prerogative; if you're wrong, admit it and accept the punishment!"

The Black woman nodded in realization and casually remarked, "That's quite a chauvinistic statement. No wonder the Hollywood Times said that 'Shanghai Bund' is a bible for men."

Lu Lin laughed and said, "So in my next movie, I'm going to make a film where women can't make mistakes either?"

The Black woman immediately shook her head: "No need for that. Although I strongly support women's rights, it would be better for society to be more tolerant of women, just like your Oscar-winning Best Foreign Language Film, Thelma & Louise."

Lu Lin smiled and said, "You are a truly pragmatic woman, not one of those white leftists who only shout slogans."

Black woman: "Even if I'm left-wing, I should be considered a black left-winger..."

There's a reason this Black woman became the queen of North American stand-up comedy; her style is both sharp and insightful, and she's also very good at cracking jokes.

Amid the laughter of the female audience members, the Black woman checked the comments in the live stream again, and after a moment looked up and said, "You should know that 99% of my viewers are women, and everyone loves to watch dramatic things."

"So, here's the dramatic question: do you prefer Scarlett O'Hara as the female lead in 'Lost in the East,' or Elizabeth I as the female lead in 'Shanghai Bund'?"

Please don't avoid the question; you only have two options!

This question is indeed dramatic and gossipy, especially at this moment, with Scarlett Johansson and Elizabeth Olsen sitting right next to Lu Lin.

Both of them stared wide-eyed, waiting for Lu Lin's answer without blinking.

Huang Xiaoming and his entourage, eager for a good show, joined the audience in clapping, shouting, and making a ruckus.

Lu Lin said, both amused and exasperated, "I'm a fickle guy who easily gets bored, so I still prefer Elizabeth from 'Shanghai Bund'."

Elizabeth Olsen excitedly pumped her fist: "Yay!"

Scarlett Johansson rolled her eyes at Lu Lin and retorted, "You really are a jerk..."

Laughter erupted again, and seeing that it was working well, the Black woman seized the opportunity to press further, asking, "Elizabeth or Kim, who do you choose?"

Ao Mei immediately tensed up again, looking at Lu Lin with anticipation.

Lu Lin clicked his tongue and asked, "First of all, please tell me who [Jin] is?"

Olsen: "..."

The Black woman explained speechlessly, "Of course it's Kim Kardashian. She's a lot like Bingbing, the Chinese actress who's always by your side. They're both fashion queens who generate a lot of buzz."

Lu Lin nodded in realization: "Oh... I don't know him..."

The Black woman almost threw out her back. Why would she nod at you if she didn't know you?

But when the audience heard Lu Lin say that he didn't know Kim Kardashian, who was on par with Fan Dabing, they burst into applause and cheers of admiration.

Yes!

The applause and shouts of worship!

It's as if to say: "As expected of a superstar among superstars, he can't even look at trash!"

Seeing the reaction from the audience, Lu Lin became more interested and asked, "Is that Ms. Jin also a controversial figure? What are her representative works?"

The Black woman's eyes lit up. "The Black and Red Queen? That's a very apt description! But she doesn't seem to have any signature works; she's just a reality TV fashion queen!"

Lu Lin nodded again, seemingly enlightened, but had already lost all interest: "Then she shouldn't be compared to Sister Bing, but rather to another Chinese actress, someone you could practically slap on the nose..."

At this point, Lu Lin turned and pointed to Huang, who was sitting behind him, saying, "Yes, that's his ex-wife!"

Master Huang was taken aback, then waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "Da Lin, don't talk nonsense. What ex-wife?"

"Bai Bi is a female artist in your company. I'm not even friends with her, so how did she become my ex-wife?"

"I'm still single!"

He was genuinely trying to defend himself; his face had turned green.

Lu Lin suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Sorry, Brother Xiaoming, I have this strange feeling that you two were husband and wife in a past life."

Master Huang: "..."

Huang Xiaoming looked utterly dejected. It's one thing for you to spout nonsense, but it'll take me forever to debunk these rumors!
