The reason it was given one point less is because some parts of the film were still scratching the surface, using only metaphors rather than directly revealing the real culprit. Everyone understands.

There was laughter.

Dante Lam also clasped his fists to Wei Jun.

Wei Cannon is worthy of his reputation.

Operation Mekong is based on the real-life tragedy on the Mekong River.

The script was directly approved by the Ministry of Public Security.

To put it bluntly, the radio and television authorities can’t block it even if they want to.

In China, the radio and television authorities only penalize those without connections. "Operation Mekong" was directly criticized by the Ministry of Public Security. "Operation Red Sea" was directly criticized by the Navy. "In the Name of the People" was directly criticized by the Supreme People's Procuratorate.

If it weren't for Wei Jun, there would be no standards for film and television in the Chinese entertainment industry, and everything would be decided by higher-level leaders.

If the leader speaks, it’s okay for you to step outside the line.

If the leader doesn't say anything, the next level leader will tell you that you have crossed the line.

There is no doubt that the drama "Operation Mekong" has a background, so it is filmed very realistically.

Our country’s police’s transnational drug control efforts involve hardship, bloodshed, violence, sacrifice… you name it.

It was just that at the end of "Operation Mekong", Director Wei felt a little unhappy.

Because it is obvious that there are people behind the drug dealers.

To be precise, the person behind the drug dealer is the country behind him.

However, even if a film is directly approved by the Ministry of Public Security, it is impossible for a red resource film to directly point the finger at neighboring countries.

Therefore, in Director Wei's opinion, the ending of "Operation Mekong", although it hits drug dealers, is just hitting the flies and letting the tigers go.

Even though the audience can understand.

Of course, Lin Chaoxian and others had no objection to the deduction given by Director Wei, and some even felt that Director Wei's reward was too high.

Dante Lam said modestly: "Director Wei is very generous. For us, if Operation Mekong can get an 80%, it will be a success.

Nine points is a surprise, we still have room for improvement."

Wei Jun said calmly, "Director Lin, you are truly modest. I bet Operation Mekong will get an 8 on Douban.

As we all know, Douban automatically adds one point to foreign films and subtracts one point from domestic films.”

What can Dante Lam say?

He could only express his gratitude to Director Wei.

After all, Director Wei said so, and he was the one who benefited in the end.

How much will the box office be?"

Director Wei thought about it, then said, "It will definitely break 10 billion."

Dante Lam was so happy that he wanted to kowtow to Director Wei.

The 10 billion box office in 2016 is still scary.

Not only Lin Chaoxian, but also Zhang Hanyu and Peng Yuyan were overjoyed when they heard that Director Wei was optimistic that "Operation Mekong" could break 10 billion.

In fact, Director Wei did not fool them.

It will be released on a certain schedule.

The final box office was over 11 billion.

Director Wei is still being conservative.

The reason for being conservative is that there are many movies in this year's National Day period that Director Wei is not familiar with.

History has changed since Director Wei came.

In addition, Director Wei got rid of a group of corrupt officials within the system and introduced a rating system, which led to a different history for the current Chinese-language film industry.

Although it has not yet reached the stage of flourishing, sparks of progress can be seen everywhere.

Once freed from the constraints of shackles, some works of art can radiate extraordinary vitality.

So the original "Operation Mekong" did not encounter any rivals during this National Day period, but in this life, Wei Jun really can't guarantee it. The biggest rival of "Operation Mekong" during this period is a movie called "Ghost and the Human".

This movie is a horror movie.

Yes, a horror movie.

After the rating system was released, people finally started to try their hand at ghost movies.

Moreover, this horror movie was recommended by Wei Jun and others.

If there were no Director Wei, it would be hard to say whether the movie "Ghosts and Humans" could eventually become a reality.

"Boss, are you going to the premiere of 'Ghost and the Human'?"

"Of course I want to go."

Director Wei nodded and said, "If this movie is successful, it will be of great significance."

Director Wei did not participate in the investment of "The Ghost and the Human". Even if "The Ghost and the Human" becomes a big hit, Director Wei will not make any money.

But if this movie becomes a big hit, many people in the industry will give the credit to Director Wei.

Because from the director to the actors, this play can be said to be the product of Director Wei.

The entertainment industry, like other industries, also follows the principle that if you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world.

Andy Lau started the Asian Rising Star Director Project ten years ago.

Ning Hao is the most talented and famous director discovered and trained by Andy Lau. The investment in "Crazy Stone" all came from Andy Lau.

After Ning Hao became famous, he began to recommend and support other new directors, bringing more new talents to the Chinese film industry.

For example, director Lu Yang, who is currently filming "The Blade of the Assassin", is strongly supported by Ning Hao behind the scenes.

This includes Xu Zheng, the bald man who seems to have been active in the capital market in recent years, but in fact he has also supported many people and will support more in the future. From the project establishment to the release of the movie "Time Raiders", Xu Zheng can be regarded as the biggest behind-the-scenes hero.

Including the masterpiece "Dying to Survive", it was the strong support of Ning Hao and Xu Zheng that made this masterpiece possible.

This is the passing of the torch, and it is also what should be done after reaching a certain position.

If anyone in the Beijing circle had this kind of vision, they would not have fallen so badly.

When Ning Hao, Xu Zheng and others were praising directors like Wen Muye and Lu Yang, the bigwigs in the Beijing circle chose to support Wu Yifan... If they don't die, who will?

Although Director Wei is different from Ning Hao and Xu Zheng, he prefers to support female actors. Director Wei believes that there are already many people in the circle who support male actors and directors, but there are still very few big men who are willing to support female actors in a real sense.

He is willing to be the first person in this regard.

As the saying goes, if I don’t go to hell, who will?

However, Director Wei is not without support for new directors.

After all, in the entertainment industry, directors are at the top of the food chain.

Promoting a new director can deliver many high-quality works and high-quality actors in the future, which is a benefit that supporting actors cannot bring.

Station A has actually been doing these things all the time.

Director Wei and Da Tiantian's current company is also working on it. "The Other Side" is a new film by a new star, promoted by a special fund set up by Director Wei and Da Tiantian's current agency.

This special fund is not for profit. As long as it maintains the daily operation, if it makes a profit, it will continue to invest in the next new play that the foundation believes has potential. If it loses money... the company will naturally make up for it.

Or Director Wei himself can make up for it.

To put it bluntly, this kind of thing is actually charity, not for making money, otherwise the Beijing circle would also do it.

When Andy Lau launched the Asian Rising Star Director Plan, he only saw a return on his investment from Ning Hao, and the others were all huge losses.

Ning Hao's success rate is higher than Andy Lau. Although Andy Lau is a good person, his vision is really poor and he is not good at choosing roles. Ning Hao is much better in this aspect, and he has indeed cultivated some outstanding talents and films.

But if you want to make a profit overall... you still have to rely on capital operations in other areas.

Director Wei naturally didn't think about making a profit.

Once you reach a certain level, you can't just think about making money, you also have to think about how to spend it.

So Director Wei and Da Tiantian attended the premiere of "Ghost and Human" together.

It is worth mentioning that Da Tiantian is also listed as the producer of "Ghost and Human".

In Da Tiantian's words, Wei Jun, you have too few opportunities, so I have to take the initiative to find opportunities myself.

Wei Jun gave Princess Tian a thumbs up for this.

An actor should have this spirit.

There are always many stars complaining about not getting any roles, but they don’t actually support new directors and only focus on those famous directors.

There are only so many famous directors, so there is no need for too many actors. Isn't it just that there are not many opportunities?

Although Yao Chen has a bad character, she has always supported new directors wholeheartedly, so she had many films to shoot even during the years when her reputation was at its worst.

This is the gap.

Closer to home.

Director Wei greeted Lu Renjia, the director of "The Legend of the Ghost".

Director Wei had never heard of this person in his previous life.

But it's not important.

There are many talented people among the grassroots.

A lot of people die in every industry.

The environment of the Chinese-language film industry has changed drastically in this era, and the appearance of a few strangers is nothing new to Director Wei.

"Director Lu, relax. I've read the script for the movie 'Ghost and Human'. It can't be too bad."

Lu Renjia wiped the cold sweat from his head and said with a wry smile: "Thanks for your good wishes, Director Wei. If this movie fails, I will be so sorry to Director Wei and Miss Jing." For the movie "The Ghost and the Human", he applied for a total of 50 million special filming funds from Director Wei's foundation, setting a record for the largest application amount for Director Wei's charity fund.

During the filming process, Da Tiantian paid about five million out of her own pocket.

Moreover, Zhang Yi, the male lead of "A Chinese Ghost Story", also reduced his salary by half for the sake of Director Wei and chose the extremely risky salary dividend.

Lu Renjia is a poor guy.

If "The Legend of Zelda: The Last Airbender" fails, it's not a big deal for him, he feels so sorry for others.

Director Wei patted Lu Renjia on the shoulder and said calmly, "It's okay, I have confidence in you."

Director Wei really didn't take it seriously.

Anyway, if I lose, I lose.

For Director Wei now, tens of millions is not money at all.

Moreover, since there are no ghost movies in the Chinese film industry, Director Wei feels it is very difficult to make a loss. Director Wei said hello to the male lead Zhang Yi and another male lead Duan Yihong, and waited for "The Legend of Ghost" to be released.

At Director Wei’s current point, he has developed a mentality similar to that of a godfather.

He was not here to steal the show on this occasion, because no matter how successful Lu Renjia was, he, as his mentor, would take away most of the glory.

In this situation, it is best to quietly appreciate and support the younger generation. "The Ghost" will soon officially premiere.

The movie begins with a tragic murder of an entire family.

Four generations of a family were killed, two died and three were injured, and even an 8-year-old child was not spared.

Three of the injured are also receiving treatment in the hospital and are still in critical condition.

This case is of great importance, so the city has set up a special task force, which is directly responsible for by the task force leader played by Duan Yihong.

After seeing the scene, a member of the task force next to Duan Yihong said angrily: "The damn murderer is so vicious that he didn't even let the children go."

Duan Yihong didn't finish his words, but carefully inspected the situation on the scene.

But as a crime-solving expert, he encountered a difficult problem this time.

Because… "Team leader, no clues were found."

"Nothing at all?"

"Nothing. The murderer might be an experienced criminal. He didn't leave any traces at all."

"Impossible. Anyone who has been here must have left traces. Keep looking."
