There are also many internal factors.

The Chinese-language film industry is currently flourishing.

Who knew that once the black swan came, the film and television industry would instantly enter a cold winter.

Let alone letting a hundred flowers bloom, even a single flower can’t stand out.

Economic downturns are usually the golden age for the entertainment industry. However, in the next few years, the entertainment industry will also fall apart as the economy goes down.

If he continues to focus on the film industry, Director Wei is very worried that he will die suddenly.

Of course, there is still opportunity for change.

The reward given by the system to the drama "Red Strongman" may change the future.

This is also the reason why Director Wei attaches great importance to "Red Strongman".

If there were no black swans, there might still be hope.

At least in 2018, everything is positive except housing prices, especially the entertainment industry, which can be said to have entered a golden period of development.

Director Wei continued, "It won't be wrong to make more preparations and have more legs to walk.

The future may continue to be brilliant, but it is hard to say now.

Liu Yifei said: "It's rare to see you so uncertain. Anyway, I feel that everything will get better and better."

"Let me lend you some good words."

Director Wei also hopes so.

If the entertainment industry had declined to that extent in the original time and space, it would have been meaningless even if he had become the number one in the industry.

The key is to make the cake bigger.

I hope the drama "Red Strongman" can bring him some miracles.

...A week later, the editing of "Red Strongman" was completed.

Half a month later, "Red Strongman" passed the review and was ready for release.

Normally, there would be a premiere.

Director Wei had originally planned to hold it.

Teacher Tajima called him.

"Director Wei, please don't hold the premiere for 'Red Strongman'."

Director Wei: “??? Why?”

Teacher Ma sighed softly, "What a coincidence! The plot in the movie actually happened in reality, and recently the higher-ups did ask Hong Kong to revise some regulations and procedures, and you happened to be there."

Director Wei, let me tell you the truth, your movie was almost rejected.

That means I acted in this drama, and that means you shot this drama. Otherwise, it might not even pass the censorship, let alone the premiere."

Director Wei blinked.

Teacher Ma's tone was helpless: "What they mean is that the film should be released and taken off screens as soon as possible without causing too much trouble. We are both family, and we can't really follow the plot in the movie."

Director Wei: "I can't control this, but I think the higher-ups are a bit wishful thinking."

"Okay, Director Wei, let's all keep a low profile."

Teacher Ma said, "Your film is too bold. You might as well make up a fictional city. It would have a bad impact if it was actually released."

Director Wei spread his hands and said, "What I filmed is all true. I'm not making it up to discredit anyone."

Teacher Ma complained, "If you really made it up to discredit me, it wouldn't be so troublesome. I'm afraid you'll just state the facts."

Director Wei said, "Wow."

It seems that helping Teacher Ma catch his agent last time was useful.

What Teacher Ma said to him now has completely crossed the line.

However, Director Wei still listened to what Teacher Ma said.

"Should I reduce the publicity efforts?" Director Wei asked.

Teacher Ma said, "That's great, but even if you reduce the publicity for your play, I'm afraid the impact will still be significant.

Mr. Ma's judgment was correct. The release date of "Red Strongman" was suddenly moved up.

Without holding a premiere, the film was released in theaters across the country.

It is rare that the producers and publicists of Director Wei's film chose to keep a low profile.

Director Wei himself did not promote the film deliberately, and there were not many celebrities to help promote it.

But capital always votes with its feet. "Red Strongman" still occupies nearly half of the screening schedules in theaters across the country.

Cinemas believe that Director Wei can bring them profits.

Although there have been rumors that the authorities do not want the film to have too high a box office or too much influence.

But they have to eat, so they don't care about that.

What is more real than theaters are the film critics and ordinary moviegoers.

When they walked into the theater where "Red Strongman" was screened, they were completely shocked by the first ten minutes of the show.

Many people even opened their eyes.

Because they had no idea what Director Wei was filming. The opening of "Red Strongman" was based on reality.

A 20-year-old girl from Hong Kong traveled to Taiwan with her boyfriend to spend Valentine's Day.

During this time, she was brutally murdered and dismembered by her boyfriend.

The suspect fled back to Hong Kong.

Taiwan requested Hong Kong to extradite the suspect.

However, due to Hong Kong laws, extradition is not possible.

Director Wei gave the role of the 20-year-old Hong Kong girl who was killed to Janice Man, who made a cameo appearance at the beginning of the film.

Director Wei gave the role of the murderer boyfriend who killed Janice Man to Xiang Zuo.

Everyone on earth knows that Boss Xiang's family is a gangster.

It is also no secret that the boss and his family are trying hard to whitewash themselves and move closer to the Central Plains.

While filming a movie in Hong Kong, he offered money and resources to his boss, hoping that Director Wei could help his son.

Director Wei took the script and flipped through it, saying that the main characters had all been decided and there was really no outstanding role for Master Ling.

Then he pointed to the murderer boyfriend and said to Director Wei, "I think this role is good."

Director Wei: ...I am really not picky about the boss.

Although this character has a lot of scenes, he is not likable at all.

A murderer after all.

But I am not picky about the boss, Director Wei must give this face.

So Xiang Zuo became a murderer.

This is not the most important.

Whether it is Janice Man or Xiang Zuo, they are not popular among the audience in Central China.

They are not familiar with each other.

They were shocked by the subsequent developments in the plot.

When the murderer's boyfriend escaped back to Hong Kong, he was actually fine...

Literally, it's really okay.

Xiang Jiangjingfang did not take any action against her murderer boyfriend.

And Taiwan has no law enforcement power either.

The plot uses the mother of the murdered woman's crying and having no one to turn to, and soon reveals the reason: the applicable laws for the extradition of fugitives in Hong Kong are the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance and the Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters Ordinance, but these two laws clearly stipulate that the law does not apply to other parts of China outside Hong Kong, including Macau and Formosa Boulevard.

In other words, if someone commits a criminal offense in Central China, Taiwan, Macau, or other places, they can evade legal sanctions by fleeing to Hong Kong. The Hong Kong police have no legal basis to handle the case, and will not hand the criminal over to the police in the place where the offense occurred.

The question is, does Hong Kong treat all countries in the world equally?

The plot also uses the lawyer hired by the mother of the murdered woman to explain: This is not the case. Although Hong Kong is part of China, there is no transfer agreement with China.

On the contrary, Hong Kong currently has long-term fugitive extradition agreements with 20 European and American countries, allowing these countries to request Hong Kong to arrest and extradite suspects who have fled to Hong Kong and send them back to the requesting country for trial.

European and American countries can.

China can't do that.

Hong Kong will not shelter any criminals who infringe upon the interests of European and American countries.

But we must protect all criminals who infringe upon China's national interests. The first ten minutes of "Red Strongman" made all moviegoers realize one thing: no wonder this drama wasn't widely promoted.

This plot is really not suitable for publicity.

Moreover, this is not something Director Wei made up.

This is real.

Lies don't hurt.

The truth is the sharpest knife.

I hold your bowl, eat your food, smash your pot, and serve my European and American father.

I am being double-standard and I am discriminatory.

What can you do to me?

This plot made countless people exclaim "Wow!"

Seeing this, Teacher Ma wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and whispered to Director Wei, "Director Wei, you really should give me a big red envelope for this movie to be released."

The script he got didn't have this part...

This segment was filmed before I joined the crew.

If the script he got was so realistic, Mr. Ma probably wouldn't dare to accept it.

Director Wei is awesome.

He fears.

Director Wei was very calm.

"There will be red envelopes, don't worry, keep reading."

Teacher Ma said it was difficult not to be anxious.

Many Hong Kong stars sitting on the other side of Director Wei were already feeling a little restless.

Although Director Wei did not hold a premiere, the crew still picked a random cinema and held an event where the film's creators watched the movie with the audience.

After watching the movie, he will go on stage to interact with the audience in the theater.

Even though they had only watched the opening scene, these Hong Kong actors felt that something was wrong.

I'm afraid the communication with the audience later will not be very friendly.

Many people began to smile bitterly.

Nicholas Tse grumbled in a low voice: "I didn't know these things before I made this movie."

No one has filmed this before.

Although he knew there were many contradictions between the two sides.

But I really didn't realize that the contradiction in this regard could be so big.

After all, he's just a star.

The things in the movie have nothing to do with him.

He can't use those privileges for the time being.

Now he understood why many celebrities and wealthy people in Central China tried so hard to change their place of origin to Hong Kong.
