Magic Modified Huayu

Cheng Long knew that Director Wei was praising him, but he was not sure whether Director Wei was praising him to death.

Thinking that there was no hatred between him and Director Wei, he felt that it shouldn't be that serious.

That is aimed at Jet Li.

"Director Wei, do you have a grudge against Jet?" Cheng Long asked.

Director Wei shook his head and said, "Not familiar, no intersection."

"Then why are you targeting him?" Cheng Long was puzzled.

Director Wei corrected him, "I'm not targeting him. I'm just using local materials. Xu Daibei, him, and maybe others in the future... Art comes from life. Such good material should be used without any waste. Of course, we have to process it artistically to avoid them suing us for defamation. Although I really don't mind this, I'm even a little bit looking forward to it."

Cheng Long understood what Director Wei meant.

If someone really identifies themselves with the incident and even takes the initiative to come forward and sue, the impact will only be greater.

Xiao Cui flipping the table and killing Huayi is a low-probability event. And Huayi's own ass is too dirty.

Director Wei is different.

Director Wei's sources of material are not clean.

Director Wei himself is very clean.

Therefore, he is inherently invincible.

There is only a difference between small wins and big wins.

Cheng Long warned: "If we really shoot it like this, Jet will be unhappy."

Director Wei laughed. "If a Lijiapo man is unhappy, why should I care? Or can he affect my overseas business layout?"

Cheng Long was speechless: "Director Wei, bosses like you are really amazing."

He and Jet Li have basically reached the end of their path as Chinese stars.

No matter what occasion they attend, basically everyone will give them face.

But in fact, if they really come to a fight, the power in Director Wei's hands can easily crush them.

Director Wei can now be called a real capital tycoon, and also a tycoon in the media field.

Just enough to restrain them.

Lin Fengjiao pulled Cheng Long's sleeve again, and then took the initiative to toast Director Wei with a glass of wine.

"Director Wei, can I ask you for one more favor?"

Director Wei was a little surprised, but still said, "Sister-in-law, please tell me. I'm listening."

Director Wei will definitely not promise whether he agrees or not.

Let’s listen and see first.

Putting aside the matter of Jaycee Chan, Lin Fengjiao is very virtuous.

She dotes on her son, but she knows more about the importance of her husband to the family.

I should care more about my husband's career than my son's career.

Although Cheng Long has reached retirement age, who can blame Cheng Long for not wanting to retire?

As the eldest sister-in-law, Lin Fengjiao has always been very concerned about Cheng Long's career.

"Director Wei, Hongsheng is very ambitious and refuses to admit his age. He always wants to leave more good works for his fans."

Director Wei nodded.

He thought Lin Fengjiao wanted him to continue making a movie for Cheng Long.

However, Lin Fengjiao's next words surprised Director Wei.

"In recent years, Hong Sheng has also made several dramas, but the reputation has been worse and worse. Many audiences have been criticizing Hong Sheng. After the Zu Ming incident, mainland audiences have been criticizing Hong Sheng even more. Hong Sheng is very patriotic and has never spoken out about these things, but deep down he actually cares about the audience's evaluation."

Cheng Long's expression changed slightly, and he said coldly, "Director Wei and Joey are still here, why are you saying this?"

As the eldest brother, you have to save face.

Wang Zuxian blinked and said on behalf of Lin Fengjiao: "Brother, sister-in-law really cares about you. I am moved when I hear that."

"Indeed, sister-in-law is indeed a good wife to brother." Director Wei also nodded.

Take a virtuous wife.

Cheng Long is undoubtedly a scumbag in terms of love, but he is very clear about marrying a wife and he definitely did not marry the wrong person.

Lin Fengjiao has been the eldest sister-in-law for decades, and of course she is not afraid of Cheng Long.

She ignored Cheng Long's cold face and continued to say to Director Wei, "Director Wei, Hong Sheng still wants to prove himself with his works and change the audience's impression of him. But he is really old and no longer has the energy of his youth. Hong Sheng's most glorious years are over, and he knows it in his heart. The new generation of audiences in mainland China don't know the weight of the name Cheng Long in the past, and they don't need to know. I just feel a little sorry for Hong Sheng. At his age, he has to win respect again."

Director Wei understood what Lin Fengjiao meant.

"Sister-in-law, do you want me to guide public opinion?"

Lin Fengjiao toasted Director Wei with another glass of wine.

"Director Wei, this is just my request. If you think it's troublesome, just pretend I never said anything. If you think it's a piece of cake, I still hope you can guide the public opinion facing Hong Kong students. To be honest, the respect Hong Kong students receive in the domestic entertainment industry is far less than that they receive overseas."

Director Wei nodded, drank the wine in the glass, and agreed readily.

"There's nothing wrong with this. Big Brother does deserve more respect... provided he stops making crappy movies that waste our hearts."

Cheng Long's old face turned red.

Director Wei said seriously, "Brother, you definitely have feelings, but those feelings can't be exploited all the time. After a few bad movies in a row, the audiences who owed you movie tickets back then have almost made up for it, and your fans are getting old. If you continue to make bad movies, your old fans won't speak up for you. To be honest, with your current status, it's best for you to follow Zhou Xingchi's example and retire."

Many viewers are looking forward to Stephen Chow acting in a movie again.

As long as Stephen Chow keeps not acting, this expectation will remain.

If Stephen Chow had started acting and then starred in a few bad movies like Jackie Chan, his public opinion environment would not have been much better than Jackie Chan's.

Domestic entertainment is good at creating gods and also good at overthrowing gods.

Well, it’s not just domestic entertainment.

In this respect, the whole world is the same.

Zhou Xingchi also understood it.

Anyway, he was not short of money, and there were many ways to make money, so he gave up the idea of ​​performing on stage himself early on.

Cheng Long just couldn't understand.

Always don't believe in evil.

Then I was beaten by reality again and again.

"In terms of status and sentiment, Big Brother and Stephen Chow should be considered the top Chinese celebrities. To be honest, Stephen Chow has made basically all bad movies in recent years. If he were to take the role, the reputation might not be good either. Stephen Chow can hold it in. Big Brother, as long as you hold it in like Stephen Chow, it won't be difficult to change the public opinion environment. Big Sister-in-law has asked for this favor, I will definitely help."

The 32-point deficit created the worst record in the history of the Chinese national table tennis team in the Olympics, but it was reversed by public opinion and remained on the hot search every day.

This is just the hype ability of the national table tennis team and MCN agencies.

It would be much easier to create a public opinion environment for a superstar like Cheng Long who already has outstanding achievements if a media tycoon like Director Wei, who controls the public opinion platform, were to do the job.

Lin Fengjiao's request was not difficult, at least for Director Wei, it was just a piece of cake.

This shows that Lin Fengjiao still knows the big picture.

And in this way, she would have enough reasons to interfere with Cheng Long's choice.

really.

Hearing Director Wei's immediate agreement, Lin Fengjiao breathed a sigh of relief, a sincere smile appearing on her face. "Director Wei, I will also do my best to convince Gangsheng. You and Joey can have some fun in Formosa today. I'll discuss this with Gangsheng and give you a reply tomorrow."

"Then I'll just wait for the good news."

Director Wei felt relieved and chatted and laughed with Wang Zuxian and Cheng Long, and had a very pleasant family dinner.

Of course, at this family dinner, Director Wei also "inadvertently" revealed a lot of things.

"Director Wei, Jet and Ali's CEO Ma have a very good relationship."

This is a friendly reminder from Cheng Long.

Cheng Long also has friends in the capital circle.

But in this regard, he is indeed not even worthy of carrying Li Lianjie's shoes.

Jet Li went to the "Taishan Club" and had a seat.

Director Wei responded calmly, "Mr. Ma's good days are almost over."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.

Boss Ma still has a strong deterrent effect.

However, Director Wei dared to say this, so it was obviously not without reason.

Considering that Boss Xu was also dealt with before.

For a moment, they had a lot of fantasies.

"It seems that the position of the richest man is not for everyone. Director Wei, you won't become the richest man, will you?" Cheng Long asked with concern.

Director Wei now has quite a lot of assets on hand.

Director Wei shook his head and said, "No."

Lin Fengjiao was a little curious: "Director Wei, Station A's valuation is rising very fast, and beauty drugs are also hard currency around the world. I've seen many financial magazines saying that you might become the richest man."

Director Wei now does have the potential to become the richest man.

Especially after the previous richest people all encountered problems one after another.

It will be easy for Director Wei to be replaced.

However, Director Wei's answer was still very certain: "I will definitely not become the richest man."

Cheng Long was shocked: "Why? Are there errors in those statistics?"

"That's not the case," Director Wei said honestly. "I used my connections at Forbes to get them to reduce my wealth. Whoever wants to be on the "Slaughtering Pigs" list can be on it, but I won't be on it anyway."

Cheng Long: "..."

Lin Fengjiao: “…”

Wang Zuxian couldn't hold it in any longer and asked, "Can this be faked?"

Director Wei laughed: "What else? Do you think the rankings on the current leaderboard are real?"

Wang Zuxian: "...If they can fake it, why don't other wealthy people hide it? They should have channels, right?"

"Some people don't want to be the richest man, while others dream of being on the list. Their pursuits are different, and their methods are also different. Many wealthy people don't seek help from Forbes, but use other methods."

"for example?"

"Donating money, doing charity, setting up a family foundation, but the most amazing thing is shorting yourself."

Wei's greatest admirer is Pinduoduo's founder, Huang Zheng. When Pinduoduo's performance exploded and its stock price soared, giving him the chance to become China's richest man, Huang Zheng decisively shorted himself, betting against Pinduoduo's future valuation. He even declared no dividends or share repurchases, causing Pinduoduo's market value to plummet 30% overnight.

In the end, Huang Zheng successfully escaped the high-risk position of China's richest man and turned danger into safety.

Director Wei had paid close attention to this matter in his previous life and could only give it a thumbs up.

Think about how Lao Wang and Lao Ma have been vying to become the richest man, and then look at Huang Zheng who has to give up the title of richest man after trying his best.

Learn from others.

Director Wei must of course learn from Huang Zheng.

He is a patriotic role model and does not want to be envied, jealous and hated by the audience.

Making a fortune silently is the way to go.

"Brother, is there anything fun to do in Taiwan? Although Sister Xiaoxian was born in Taiwan, she hasn't been back for a long time and I'm not familiar with the place at all." Cheng Long subconsciously looked at Wang Zuxian.

There are so many fun things to do in Taiwan.

But if Wang Zuxian follows, can you play?

Wang Zuxian understood what Cheng Long meant and complained, "Brother, I'll go back and rest soon. Don't worry about me. The life of a super-rich person like Director Wei is not something I can interfere with."

She just needs to eat the sausage and drink the milk.

Who cares about these things?
