Chapter 186 Whose family will Lao Mouzi fall into?(1/2)
"Microappropriating 20 million dividends, new footage reveals a huge scandal!"
"Shocking: The news of the century in the entertainment industry in 2010. One of the film giants, New Picture, is having a breakup with Lao Mouzi. Who will be the winner of the international director?"
"When an honest man meets a street kid, how does New Picture boss Zhang Weiping easily manipulate an international director!"
"The boss of New Picture was interviewed and insisted that he and Lao Mouzi have been friends for many years. The dividends and accounts have always been clearly divided, and they have never been owed a penny!"
In the afternoon of that day, several pieces of news came out and became hot searches as quickly as possible.
Huayi, Guangxian, Bona, Galloping Horse, and Orange Sky Entertainment took action at the same time to officially encircle and suppress New Picture.
For the first time, the news title used the shocking style that became famous in later generations of UC. The news content was full of useful information and extremely shocking, instantly gathering people who didn't know what was going on.
One announcement after another, one piece of news.
Scenes of so-called truths went viral on the Internet in just half an hour.
Tencent Entertainment, NetEase Entertainment, and Sina Weibo have specially opened columns to collect news related to Zhang Weiping and Lao Mouzi, and put them all on the platform.
Then countless navy troops ended up leading the melon-eating crowd to find the truth, guiding the rhythm and pointing the finger at the new picture Zhang Weiping!
The central idea is that Zhang Weiping embezzled Lao Mouzi's 20 million dividends!
In the evening, an anonymous person came forward to speak out.
This person claimed to be a financial staff member of New Picture and wore a mask to be interviewed by multiple media outlets.
This guy is fierce and fearless on the surface, but he speaks eloquently and clearly, and claims that the reports on the Internet are true.
Twenty million is a lot!
A whole movie fan who admires Lao Mouzi feels like he is fighting against injustice!
In this way, public opinion was controlled by the five major film and television companies, creating a one-sided situation.
The new picture is in danger. No matter how Zhang Weiping jumps up and down and fires at the media, it will be difficult to save the defeat.
The imperial capital, Lao Mouzi’s home!
"well"
Zhang Yimou let out a long sigh and sat on the sofa, frowning.
After editing "Hawthorn Tree Love", he has not yet recovered. Although he is in good spirits, there are a few wrinkles between his eyebrows.
As early as when the news came out in the afternoon, the assistant next to him told him.
He did not call Zhang Weiping or investigate the truth of the matter, but returned home immediately.
Twenty million is nothing to him.
What really made him sad was that Zhang Weiping's actions over the years were incompatible with his creative ideas.
Ever since "Hero", Zhang Weiping has been able to make some mistakes in every one of his movies.
Yes, every movie!
If it's just to promote the movie and make it popular, that's it.
Lao Mouzi focuses on filming, is not good at publicity and marketing, and does not like fighting for power.
As long as he didn't interfere with his movie, he would let it go and let Zhang Weiping, the movie producer, hype it up.
It’s just that people’s hearts are unpredictable!
Within a few years of cooperation, Zhang Weiping became more and more excessive and began to interfere in the production and casting of movies.
First up is "A City Full of Golden Armor".
Zhang Weiping tried his best to trick Zhou Milk Tea into the crew with the idea of increasing the box office.
At the same time, he secretly used his subordinates to drive a wedge between Lao Mouzi and Emperor Gong.
From then on, Emperor Gong hated Zhang Weiping to death and vented his resentment on the silent Lao Mouzi.
This was followed by "Three Guns". At the beginning of the casting process, Zhang Weiping insisted on using the then-famous Little Shenyang Master and Disciple.
So after filming started, Lao Mouzi had to replace the original heroine duet actor Wang Xiaohua with Yan Ni in order to balance the film's style.
Otherwise, the male and female protagonists are both comedy entertainers who came out of Erzhuan, and the audience would have to curse this movie as soon as they saw the poster.
"Three Guns" was Lao Mouzi's first movie after his comeback, but it turned out to be a big dud, which cost him half of his reputation.
Of course, there are reasons why the film format is too small, and there are problems with the story chosen by Lao Mouzi.
But it is undeniable that Zhang Weiping occupies an important weight in the scale of bad movies.
And every time Zhang Weiping hired actors, both parties would eventually fall out, and each actor would have irreversible conflicts with the new picture.
On the contrary, he was Lao Mouzi, and after finishing filming, he had a pretty good relationship with these actors.
You know, Lao Mouzi didn't want to use these actors at first.
The male and female protagonists of every movie join the crew with great enthusiasm and respect for Lao Mouzi.
Although Lao Mouzi was initially reluctant to hire him, the other party has always been grateful to him.
But Zhang Weiping, who brought them in, was regarded by these actors as a wild beast.
Be sarcastic!
The cliff is ironic enough.
Zhang Weiping, the way he behaves in the industry, is so unwelcome!
Ten years of cooperation.
Lao Mouzi gave in again and again, and he didn't know how he got through the past ten years.
The bottom line of creation that he had always adhered to in his heart was completely eroded by Zhang Weiping little by little.
Looking at the dimly lit night outside the window, Zhang Yimou laughed at himself: "I'm used to being stepped on, and I almost lost myself."
"Forget it, it's time to end."
call.
Take a deep breath.
Zhang Yimou made a decision, picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table and made a call.
7pm!
A reporter reported a photo of Zhang Weiping coming out of the downstairs of Lao Mouzi's house, looking angry and hysterical.
seven thirty.
A piece of news spread among high-level people in the circle!
The cooperation between Lao Mouzi and Zhang Weiping has ended and they will officially part ways after finishing "Hawthorn Tree Love"!
This news was earth-shattering, and like a virus, it quickly spread throughout the entertainment industry, and was then known by the media and posted on the Internet.
By eight o'clock in the evening, the entire entertainment circle and the Internet were in a frenzy!
The fans of Lao Mouzi were overjoyed and excited, running back and forth telling each other the great news.
The major movie giants in the industry were equally excited at this time.
Things went smoothly unexpectedly, and Lao Mouzi broke up with Xin Zhan so quickly that everyone was stunned for a moment.
Huayi Headquarters.
Wang Zhongjun was overjoyed and laughed loudly.
"Hahaha, good, good!"
"Lao Mouzi is worthy of being a national teacher. He is not sloppy at all and is very courageous!"
"Zhang Dapao, Zhang Dapao, you also have today, haha, you feel so comfortable!"
On the other side, Wang Changtian, Yu Dong, Wu Kebo, and Li Ming were as happy as Wang Zhongjun.
It's like drinking a glass of ice-cold soda in the dog days of summer, not to mention how happy I am.
In 2003, 2004, and 2005, when Zhang Yimou was at the height of his popularity, the entire film industry had just begun a commercial trend.
Almost all the major film and television companies and major theater chains were angered by Zhang Weiping.
In front of outsiders, they are well-known film and television CEOs and highly praised theater directors.
But in front of Zhang Weiping, he was nothing but bullshit. He could scold him as much as he wanted, and he had nowhere to vent his anger!
During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao held the emperor hostage to order the princes.
Zhang Weiping's left hand is an old trick and his right hand is invincible in talking skills. He is equally as powerful as a fox and a tiger in the entire industry.
Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian, Yu Dong, Wu Kebo, Feng Pongtong, Chen Daren.
Including several top figures in the Hong Kong film industry, as well as major movie theaters, everyone was sprayed by Zhang Weiping.
Zhang Weiping even used the power of "Heroes" and "The City of Golden Armor" to force theaters to adjust their share ratios.
The ratio increased from 43% to 45% and then to 47%.
