The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 301 Take Him Out to Calm Down
Top floor of Morning Light Building
We have several guests today.

Led by Tong Gang and Han Sanping, a group of old, middle-aged and young directors including Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Lu Chuan, Wang Xiaoshuai, Xu Jinglei, as well as CEOs of various film and television companies, such as Wang Zhonglei, Wang Changtian, Li Shaohong and other CEOs of film and television production companies sat in front of Zhang Chen across the conference table.

And Zhang Chen is not the only one here.

On both sides of him sat film directors Tian Zhuangzhuang, Feng Xiaogang, Jiang Wen, and Jia Zhangke. As for the film and television company bosses, Li Xiaoping, president of the Morning Glory Group, was enough to match a whole group of people sitting opposite him.

Now that this scene has spread, people will believe it if they say it is a conference of the film industry.

"Director Tong, you've made such a big scene, what instructions do you have?"

Seeing that most people had arrived, Zhang Chen signaled Xue Yining to close the door of the conference room.

What we are talking about here should not be known to more people.

"This is my first time here. I didn't expect you to enjoy yourself so much."

Tong Gang did not answer Zhang Chen's question, but looked around and admired Zhang Chen's "office" which occupied a whole floor.

This is the conference room on this floor. In terms of area alone, this conference room is more than 200 square meters. Apart from the people present, it is more than enough to seat dozens more people.

Zhang Chen on this side was not in a hurry. He just watched Tong Gang stand up and walk to the large floor-to-ceiling window of the conference room to see the beautiful scenery of the Forbidden City that could be vaguely seen from the Second Ring Road of the Capital.

This is also the favorite thing for every employee of Chenguang Group to do after work.

Taking in the most prosperous scenery of the capital, this feeling of overlooking the world is the best way for everyone working in this building to relieve fatigue.

"Zhang Chen, can you let me watch my movie?"

Tong Gang can keep his composure, but as the current party involved, Lu Chuan cannot.

Tong Gang's request for him to come this time was exactly what he wanted. He had already asked many people to help yesterday, but with little success, and he couldn't even see Zhang Chen.

There is no need to even mention dealing with this matter if you can't meet the person involved.

Just when he was in a state of panic, a phone call from Tong Gang gave him a lifeline.

Zhang Chen glanced at Lu Chuan and was too lazy to speak.

"you!"

Lu Chuan was very angry at Zhang Chen's contempt.

After all, he was Zhang Chen's senior brother. He must have felt very uncomfortable being looked down upon.

"Zhang Chen, I called so many people here this time just to talk to you about some things in the film industry."

"Appreciate further details."

"We just relaxed restrictions on the film production industry in 02. After two years of development, mainland commercial films have finally started to pick up. We can't let this newly emerging industry decline, right?"

"decay?"

"A star from Hong Kong Island, followed by a director, and then there will be a film and television company?"

"Isn't Director Tong's view of me too overbearing?"

"Aren't you overbearing enough in what you do?"

“I’ve always thought of myself as a very easy-going person.”

"Would you like to take a look at these people's expressions before you speak?"

Zhang Chen actually glanced at the people around him.

Lu Chuan's indignation, Chen Kaige's disapproval, Zhang Yimou's embarrassment, Feng Xiaogang's fear, Tian Zhuangzhuang's speechlessness.
It seems that everyone has a different opinion on Zhang Chen's evaluation of himself.

"Why, do you think I'm not easy-going?"

"No no no!"

"No, Mr. Zhang, you are very easy-going."

"That's not what we meant!"

Zhang Chen's question startled these people, and they quickly said that they didn't mean that, as if they were afraid that Zhang Chen would misunderstand something.

Especially Feng Kuzi, who had suffered a loss at the hands of Zhang Chen once and was put on ice for a while and now has hope of making a comeback, had a flattering smile on his face.

"Director Tong, you see, everyone thinks I'm easy-going."

Tong Gang really rolled his eyes in front of everyone.

He was extremely speechless and sighed heavily. He walked around the conference table and sat down in his seat again. "This time I have called all the well-known people in the mainland film and television industry to come to you. Why don't you tell them what you think so that they can know where your bottom line is."

Tong Gang had no choice but to do this.

Everything Zhang Chen did had a reason. It was because these film directors, actors, and film and television company bosses did things dishonestly, which gave Zhang Chen an advantage.

Logically speaking, Zhang Chen is also doing this to maintain the reputation of the mainland film and television industry and to eliminate some unclean practices.

But there is a shortage of people in the mainland film and television industry.

If things continue like this, there will be no actors or directors in the film and television industry, and the mainland's film and television industry will be like a sieve full of holes, allowing Hollywood movies to repeatedly jump around in the mainland and reap box office revenue.

Tong Gang also vaguely understood some of the purposes of the upper echelons' control over film imports.

It would be a terrible thing if the people of a country could only grow up under the "influence" of foreign culture.

Tong Gang had not received any clear instructions on this speculation, but he believed it firmly.

Therefore, the mainland's film and television industry must develop!

"Bottom line?"

Zhang Chen also stopped smiling.

This time it was his turn to stand up and walk to the French window.

It seems that when you say something important, having the scenery of the capital behind you will make your words more convincing.

"Are normal people supposed to have a bottom line? Why don't you have one? Do you still need me to draw one for you?"

Zhang Chen leaned sideways, holding onto the French window with one hand and looking at the scenery of the capital, his tone containing a hint of ridicule and disdain.

Every one of these people is not a good person. Their bottom line is much lower than that of normal people, which is why they touch the lines that are more sensitive to ordinary people one after another.

Zhang Chen merely exposed things that ordinary people didn't know to the public.
Only
Thinking of this, Zhang Chen turned around and faced these people who were highly respected by the public, raised the corner of his mouth and asked: "Director Tian, please stand for a moment."

Tian Zhuangzhuang stood up not knowing why.

"Everyone here is a lecher!"

"Zhang Chen!"

"Oh, Director Tong, President Han, you can't be counted as such, it was an accidental injury."

When Zhang Chen was scolding, he only considered Brother Chen Kai and the others, and really ignored Tong Gang and Han Sanping.

"You really are..." Tong Gang pointed at Zhang Chen with his finger, but didn't know how to start.

"Director Tong, do you still remember what we talked about before?"

"What thing?" There were a lot of things between him and Zhang Chen, and he couldn't remember it all at once.

“Actor variety show.”

"Have you made a plan?"

"Correct."

"That"

Tong Gang suddenly realized that aren't there a group of people with the most say in the film and television industry sitting around here?
Is he heading towards Zhang Chen's net with the fish?
"I wonder if you are interested in participating in our company's program?" "What format?"

"What about the rules?"

“Want to invest?”

The directors were fine, but the bosses of the film and television companies began to ask questions one after another. Even Wang Zhonglei couldn't help but ask, "Can we all participate?"

"This is part of the plan, you can take a look at it first."

Zhang Chen seemed to have been prepared and pulled out a pile of folders from the bookshelf.

After everyone got it, Zhang Chen took the folder and patted the table: "The program will be carried out in the form of a class."

Next, Zhang Chen introduced the program's operating model to them in detail:
1. The program has one counselor and producer (director), two producers (actors), and one manager (actor).

2、每一期会安排4名飞行导师（演员），共计12名，每4位飞行导师参与4期节目录制。

3. The entire program will recruit more than 20 young actors from all over the society to participate in the recording.

4. Program positioning:
Based on classics, the theme of the program allows actors to break away from the halo and return to their original intentions.

The Hong Kong film veterans who left their highlights in the audience's memory, with their rich acting experience, have launched cooperation and exchanges with young actors on multiple levels, jointly welcoming the infinite transcendence of the new generation of actors.

The program draws lessons from the classics, takes the present as its foundation and looks to the future, seeking inspiration and more possibilities for the creation and development of the film and television industry.

Through solid and rigorous training and acting development, we promote the progress of young actors and inject fresh vitality into the sustainable development of the film and television industry. By exploring the creative spirit and creative concepts in classic works, we start from the times and provide more possibilities for the future of China's film and television industry.

5. All affiliated film and television companies provide scripts for their favorite actors and give young actors contracts to star in the film and television works that the company has already approved.

“The above is the main content of this program.”

Zhang Chen explained for a long time and finally gave an overview of the content.

Originally, this work should have been assigned to Xue Yining, but with Tong Gang present, it would be more convincing for him to explain it himself.

Face must still be given.

"Zhang Chen, my...

Lu Chuan has been sitting here for a long time, but has not heard what he wanted to hear. Now the topic has turned to a variety show, which is inconsistent with his original intention of coming here.

"Director Lu, just a few small matters, we can talk later."

Zhang Chen waved his hand, signaling Lu Chuan to shut up and not interrupt everyone's thinking.

Originally, Zhang Chen had no intention of using the movie "Kekexili" to criticize Lu Chuan, as it was unrealistic.

To put it bluntly, plagiarism is not new in the literary and art circles. In the end, it is just possible that a big thing will be reduced to a small thing. At most, its reputation will be slightly damaged, but it will not affect its future money-making at all.

"But."

"Tsk!" Zhang Chen made an impatient sound, took a spare computer and pushed it in front of Lu Chuan, "Make a public apology and compensate the original author."

"This is impossible!"

"Why don't you take a look at the comments on Weibo first?"

Zhang Chen raised his chin and motioned Lu Chuan to look at the laptop he pushed over. A tourist account had already clicked on an entry:
[Are plagiarized movies worth celebrating? ]

@无双: I just follow the crowd and have no opinion of my own, and I even think it’s good to repeat what others say.

It is a coward to follow the trend and claim to be capable, but it is also a coward to be self-satisfied.

I advise you to learn some real skills and stop imitating others.

@兜里格郎: If you can plagiarize, you should plagiarize in a creative way.

I have tolerated you for a long time. Don't be so shameless. Don't you know your own weight?

Look, there is a pharmacy at the corner. There is a scale inside. Remember not to break it.

@薰勿空: The water in Taohuatan is a thousand feet deep, but it is not as shameless as the tailor who copied it.

There are so many good articles in the world, and a mediocre person can only copy them.

How can it be so clear? If you are not smart enough, you have to copy it.

The sound of horns fills the sky with autumn colors, and one chapter is not enough, so I start again.

Some people are dead, but they live by plagiarism.

Some people are alive, but they are pissed off to death by plagiarism.

@不良人天仙星: Why is Jiang Wen gone? Now you can’t make movies and all you can do is copy!
I never curse at anyone, because those I curse are not human beings.

I'm glad we're not the same!

@I'm standing here, you guys go buy some oranges! :rnm's Lu Chuan, give me your money back!
It is said that netizens have literary talent. Except for a few people who used straightforward words to curse Lu Chuan as shameless, more people wrote one limerick after another to despise Lu Chuan's behavior.

It can be said that Lu Chuan's reputation has been ruined.

Every time Lu Chuan read a comment, his blood pressure rose. By the end, his entire face began to turn red with anger: "These bastards!"

He was still not satisfied after he finished speaking, so he threw his laptop to the ground.

Zhang Chen shrugged indifferently. He had expected this to happen, so he gave the machine as a spare one, which did not contain anything important.

But it would not be good to let this man go crazy here, so he picked up the phone beside him, pressed a number and called the internal line: "Someone, take Director Lu out and calm him down."

"Zhang Chen, you!"

Before Lu Chuan could finish her words, her attention was attracted by several big men in black who pushed the door open.

Zhang Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Chuan with a sneer, as if expecting him to say something.

Lu Chuan noticed Zhang Chen's cold gaze and swallowed back the rest of her words, allowing the black-clad bodyguards to carry her out.

"Remember to ask Director Lu to compensate for the computer."

Zhang Chen shouted at Lu Chuan who was about to be carried out of the meeting room.

Computers actually don’t cost much, and neither Zhang Chen nor Lu Chuan need the money.

So this sentence is not very hurtful, but it is extremely insulting.

"Okay, where were we?"

After dealing with Lu Chuan's affairs, Zhang Chen turned to face the others with a smile on his face again.

In the eyes of others, this smile was like a knife, stabbing deeply into their hearts.

Especially Brother Chen Kai, he thought about what he had done.

When Zhang Chen glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally, he, who was used to many storms, couldn't help but shudder.

Feng Xiaogang, who was standing by, breathed a sigh of relief with lingering fear.

Fortunately, although he was arrested by Zhang Chen and then put on ice, at least he has found hope for a comeback.

He is now a little glad that Zhang Chen's approach to him was relatively "gentle".

"We all have to participate?"

Wang Zhonglei's expression wrinkled as if he had eaten something smelly.

This show has pitfalls!
