Chapter 792: Keep apologizing, the response is coming
After the call, Chen Ya put away her mobile phone and said, "Brother Fa, Brother Hua, I'm really sorry for letting you two make this trip in vain."
Zhou Runfa waved his hand and said: "We shouldn't be here. Mr. Chen, please go ahead and get busy. Let's go talk to Director Wu and return to Hong Kong Island tonight."
"So soon?" Chen Ya said: "I also want to treat you two to a meal?"
Zhou Runfa said with a smile: "Let's wait until we have the chance. Zhang Xiao just said that when he comes back, he will cook squat meals for us with his own hands. I feel that no chef anywhere can cook as well as him."
Chen Ya nodded and said, "Okay, Zhang Xiao's cooking is indeed delicious."
Zhou Runfa and Liu Huade both smiled.
Chen Ya then personally sent the two film industry tycoons downstairs, and asked the team to arrange a car for each of them before returning to the office.
After leaving the headquarters of Qingtian Entertainment, Zhou Runfa and Liu Huade went straight to the hotel where Wu Yusen was staying.
Soon I saw Wu Yusen who looked a little haggard.
Zhou Runfa said: "Wu Dao, I'm sorry, we talked with Zhang Xiao and his wife, but we couldn't persuade them."
Wu Yusen opened his mouth, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This is what I expected. No matter what, thank you for coming to Yuzhou to help me."
Liu Huade said: "Director Wu, this matter is indeed very difficult to handle. This is not because of you, but because the investor of "Wind Talkers" is Columbia Pictures."
Hearing this, Wu Yusen's heart moved, and he suddenly realized, "Mr. Zhang's real purpose is to deal with Columbia Pictures, and I am just a cannon fodder, right?"
Liu Huade shook his head and said: "To be precise, Zhang Xiao's opponent is the Soli Group behind Columbia Pictures and Sakura Pictures. If it weren't for you being Chinese, I'm afraid Qingtian would have already taken action."
When Wu Yusen heard this, he exclaimed: "Have they really reached the point where they are irreconcilable?"
Zhou Runfa said: "It's not that we are at odds with each other, but that we will fight to the death. These are Zhang Xiao's exact words. Director Wu, don't think that Zhang Xiao can help you. It's already very good that he hasn't dealt with you.
Everyone is in favor of the Chinese people."
"If you were not from China, he would have taken action against you long ago."
Liu Huade also said: "Zhang Xiao will neither help nor disrupt. This is the best result. Director Wu, I think what you need to do now is to apologize."
"At the same time, if you edit and post what you said on other talk shows and on Twitter in Lighthouse Country, as long as you are sincere enough, you should still be able to impress some movie fans."
Wu Yusen nodded and said: "This is the only thing we can do now."
Then the three of them chatted for a while, and after having a meal together, Zhou Runfa and Liu Huade returned to Hong Kong Island.
The next day, Wu Yusen came to Sakura Film Company and met CEO Xiao Lishan.
The two negotiated for two hours on the promotion of "Windtalkers" before finally deciding on the promotion plan.
Wu Yusen posted the video of his apology to Zhang Xiao on various major entertainment programs in Lighthouse Country and the apology post on Twitter on his Weibo, and held a press conference at the same time.
In front of dozens of media reporters, he expressed his apology to Zhang Xiao.
For a film director who is almost 60 years old to be able to achieve this, it can be said that he is very dedicated.
This also reduced the number of movie fans who boycotted "Windtalkers", and the momentum also dropped a lot.
Seeing that the incident happened on the album, the crew of "Wind Talker", Wu Yusen, Xiao Lishan and others all breathed a long sigh of relief.
Almost everywhere Wu Yusen and his team went, they would be asked about Zhang Xiao by media reporters, and Wu Yusen also kept his attitude very low. Although he just gave the same answers, he was not impatient at all.
I apologized to Zhang Xiao again and again.
This made Zhang Xiao a little inappropriate.
In any case, Wu Yusen is a senior in the film industry, and he asked for forgiveness in such a humble manner. If Zhang Xiao never shows up, I am afraid he will soon be labeled as disrespectful to his seniors.
Some comments have appeared on the Internet now, saying that Zhang Xiao bullied others and forced a director in his sixties to have no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth. It was very miserable.
Although these comments are not many, as time goes by, big problems may arise.
After discovering this sign, the publicity team of Qingtian Entertainment immediately reported it to Chen Ya.
Chen Ya didn't waste any time and called Zhang Xiao directly.
After Zhang Xiao heard this, he smiled and said: "This is the real use of force to suppress others!"
Regardless of whether this was Wu Yusen's original intention, his actions indeed put Zhang Xiao in an extremely embarrassing situation.
Yang Mi next to her asked: "Husband, if things continue like this, it will be a huge blow to our reputation!"
Zhang Xiao thought for a while and said: "Isn't Qingtian's reporter on the set? Ask him to give me an interview and give me a response."
"How to respond?" Yang Mi asked.
Zhang Xiao said: "Of course I tell the truth, and leave other matters to the fans to judge for themselves!"
Soon, Zhang Xiao was interviewed by a reporter from Qingtian TV's "Entertainment Things" column.
"Mr. Zhang, do you accept Director Wu Yusen's apology to you?"
"I don't accept it!" Zhang Xiao said without hesitation: "Director Wu has not sorry for me, and there is no need to apologize to me."
"You should have seen Director Wu's previous interview video. His "I don't know" sentence is undoubtedly suspecting that you sent hackers to attack the Rotten Tomatoes website. Aren't you angry?"
"I have indeed seen the interview video. It is absolutely false to say that I am not angry. If a foreign director or actor said this, I might not have any feeling at all."
Zhang Xiao replied: "But this is a famous Chinese director. What he said made me a little sad. After all, it is a very sad thing not to be trusted by your compatriots overseas."
The reporter asked: "Then do you still think he doesn't need to apologize?"
Zhang Xiao replied: "People have reasonable doubts and they didn't clearly say it was me. Do I need to apologize? In fact, the main problem with this incident is that it happened abroad. If it had been in China, there might not have been so many things.
Son."
"Some time ago, Director Wu's new movie "Windtalkers" was boycotted by hundreds of millions of Lingna fans. Do you know about this?"
Zhang Xiao replied: "I know!"
"Then why didn't you say a word?"
"Do you want me to help Director Wu Yusen appease my fans?"
"Isn't it possible?"
"I'm not a saint, and I don't have such a big belly." Zhang Xiao said: "What's more, "Wind Talker" is still a movie invested by Columbia Pictures. I didn't step on it, but I was already giving Director Wu a lot of face.
Already."
The reporter asked: "Why do you want to step on a Columbia Pictures movie?"
Zhang Xiao said straightforwardly: "I am a martial arts practitioner and I don't like hiding things. I hate Columbia Pictures very much because they are not a thing."
"In order to win my "Zhu Xian", the previous CEO concocted a nasty incident and ended up in jail. I am also not interested in this current CEO. "Swordsman" is currently being screened in European and American theaters.
