Chapter 576: Torturing Big Mi Mi, a magical adaptation of "The Thieves"

"Adjust my schedule so I can focus on finishing my scenes."

Da Mi Mi made the request as a matter of course. Since the relationship between good brothers has evolved to the point of "sharing one quilt", the treatment should also match.

Tang Yan is silly. Isn't it just by following the right person that she can achieve success overnight?

No wonder I couldn’t help but feel sorry for my best friend. Good brothers are really powerful.

Shen Santong refused on the spot and was severely tortured.

Is this the attitude?

He eats with the bowl in his hands and curses when he puts the bowl down. You’re spoiled, right?
What do you think of Shen Santong?

No emotional intelligence!

Even if they appear to be close, they should be aware of the difference in status, right?
"Of course not. First of all, if this is the case, it becomes a transaction. Mimi, I never make this kind of transaction."

Big Mi Mi was shocked, not understanding this nonsense reason: ".What do you mean?"

It's like this now, why are you being so stubborn?
Harder than words, isn’t that a good description?

Shen Santong patiently explained his principles: "I have always hated all kinds of unspoken rules!"

"Especially my subordinates, assistants, family members, and people around me, I can't make any loopholes."

"If nothing had happened to us, I might have been able to help you coordinate. But now that's definitely not possible."

Da Mi Mi wants to call the police!

Speechless!

I have never been so speechless. What a ridiculous excuse.

I want to pluck my hair!

Da Mi Mi refused to give up: "You take care of me, what kind of unspoken rule is that? Just think of it as taking care of a brother!"

Shen Santong thinks that Da Mi Mi is a bit stupid. Logically speaking, her academic performance is good in the entertainment industry: "The unspoken rules are the rules under the water, not the formal rules."

Yang Mi rolled her eyes. If anyone gave her a knife, she would chop Xiao Shen to pieces on the spot!

"I know what the unspoken rules are! You don't have to explain!"

A young man is teachable. Shen Santong said, "If I give you special treatment because you did something, even though I took advantage of a loophole, it is still an unspoken rule."

Da Mi Mi gritted her teeth: "So if you did it and then didn't deliver, it doesn't count as an unspoken rule? Oh my God!"

I see she really understood.

Shen Santong felt a great sense of accomplishment.

We have saved another female star, but we can’t bow to bad trends!
Defend the character!
"Either you join the crew of "The Thieves" or we will replace you."

Shen Santong gave her a choice, but did not force her: "It's a two-month schedule. You can take a leave occasionally during that time, but I can't let you overlap with other projects."

Da Mi Mi is very good at adapting to circumstances and thinks the patient can still be rescued.

"You exit first, and we'll start over."

"Okay." Shen Santong agreed.

"Wait a moment."

Da Mi Mi wants to look back and return to a friendship.

"Why didn't I realize you were that kind of person!" Yang Mi was in tears.

The little fox was no match for the big brown bear.

I just regret that I should have kept a vague boundary earlier.

Once a brown bear drinks honey, it cannot stop.

He had been very restrained in the last two or three years, but this time Yang Mi gave him a sneak attack, and his "clean and self-disciplined" image was broken. Shen Santong simply gave up.

Since it has come to this, we might as well satisfy ourselves temporarily and then regain control later.

Shen Santong's thoughts are always at this time, and they are particularly profound: "Have you ever thought about the future of mankind?"

Big Mi Mi was convinced: "I haven't thought about it, and I don't want to think about it, I just want more opportunities!"

Teacher Shen started the class: "Life is essentially a journey of trade-offs. It is impossible to get everything. When you gain one thing, you may lose another. What seems to be a shortcut may turn out to be a wrong path when you look back. There is no way to go back even if you want to."

"But I want them all."

"Okay, I'll give it all to you."

Since his good brother has made a request, Shen Santong must satisfy it.

I am really impressed. Big Mi Mi is really impressed by this Lao Liu. He is so scary.

"Not this kind!"

"You chose it!"

"Can we discuss it? How about a one-month schedule?" Da Mi Mi was unwilling to give up: "It's already like this, you can't just say nothing, right?"

"Look, you forgot what I said again. You can't have a transactional mindset."

Shen Santong taught actors how to act: "You need to pay attention to every little thing in life, especially actors. A lot of performances require mobilizing emotions, which is a big drain, but a good actor must have emotions."

“If you don’t accumulate, observe, feel life, and store things, you won’t be able to take them out when you want to use them in the future.”

“In other words, if you save too little, you will spend it all at once, and your heart will become dry, and you will eventually become an acting machine.”

Pass on experience through practice.

Anyway, I didn’t dare to pout: “I should thank you too, right?”

"You're welcome." Shen Santong told her to give up: "Even if you didn't ruin my innocence, there is no room for negotiation."

Big Mi Mi cried to death.

What destroyed your innocence? Do you have innocence?
Big Mi Mi wants to curse!

I looked down and endured it!

Shen Santong said to himself: "Hollywood is making great strides, and I have to do every play well. Whoever doesn't calm down and be honest will leave my crew. No one is special."

Yang Mi is indeed the chosen worker.

He is hardworking, can make money, and is also smart. He was indeed very powerful at the peak of his previous life.

But Shen Santong has always been able to distinguish matters of principle.

Da Mi Mi thought that Hollywood was allowed in because Shen Santong had offended Hollywood by making a statement first, and they were forced to let him in under external pressure: "You can just say something soft and not file a lawsuit."

"It is an inevitable trend for Hollywood to make a big move in," Shen Santong answered perfunctorily.

His blasting of Hollywood was the result, not the beginning as many thought.

There was first the collusion under the table, and then there was the reaction on the table.

There are some confidentiality issues involved.

There is no need to explain.

Da Mi Mi stared at the ceiling in silence, and the world seemed to be falling apart.

No wonder there is such a room on the top floor. It is too difficult to control a man like Good Brother with little tricks.

One wrong move can lead to not only losing the wife but also the army.

Shen Santong's eyes were deep and his heart was as calm as a lake.

Getting along with Yang Mi on a relatively equal footing is not just a feeling from the past life, nor is it that I am obsessed with her. Of course, at this age, Yang Mi is really great.

But the more his wealth increases, the more Shen Santong needs to be cautious.

A gentleman should be cautious when alone!

The interactions between people are not a simple level system. A person with a net worth of 10 million will obediently listen to someone with a net worth of 10 million, and a section chief will do whatever the director says. If you have this kind of thinking, don't do anything.

Respect everyone as much as possible and treat everyone as a human being. Shen Santong is also afraid that he will be alienated.

Just like Li Hong asked, maybe he will change one day!

Or it has changed!
Shen Santong was not unaware of the self-produced and self-eating methods of later generations. Although the final result was not good, he could definitely make a lot of money in the process, and it was indeed simple and convenient.

Shen Santong also has some crazy ideas at work.

Not to mention sending away all the old filmmakers like the old astronaut in The Three-Body Problem, at least we should expose their true faces harshly.

Especially some people, who take the money inside and eat the shit outside, and are not ashamed of it but proud of it.

Outside of the industry, clean up the breeding stock and even play some real damage.

Deep down, Shen Santong also feels content.

He doesn't eat shit from outside, nor does he shit himself. With the resources he has, it's not easy for him to manipulate the stock price.

He is the only one who can produce films with normal aesthetics.

Xiao Gangpao said that if he didn't make movies, what would the audience watch? Shen Santong sometimes had the same idea.

If he goes bankrupt, the channel for producing aesthetically normal films in a relatively systematic manner will be gone.

In later generations, "self-doubt, self-hatred, self-mutilation, and suicide" were rampant, and there were countless movies with marginalized and niche themes.

"Decision to Run Away" and "Wild Child" were released during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The National Day "749 Bureau", "Safe Entry and Exit" and "Only This Green", among which the publicity of "Only This Green" emphasized "mourning", and the funeral was held on the National Day.
During the Christmas season, the movie "Breaking Hell" tells a story about a funeral and also touches on gender issues, and this thing has spread.

"Good Things" provokes gender confrontation, "Lion Boy 2" has Down syndrome, and "Karma" has a girl being raped
It's the New Year's Eve and New Year's Day movies. "Little Me" is about a boy with cerebral palsy. It deserves sympathy and attention, but can it not be so marginal?

At the same time, the sixth-generation aircraft came out of nowhere, and this time it was not a certain model, but a blowout.

A series of achievements in the 2025th Five-Year Plan will lead to comprehensive success of Manufacturing .

The military was the first and most stringent area to be blockaded, and it was also the first to achieve a breakthrough.

The sixth-generation aircraft will not emerge out of thin air like in the history of some countries, but will be a process.

Looking back on our history, it is natural to find that in the field of fifth-generation aircraft, we are already far ahead in main combat aircraft.

It’s just that Xiao Mi has the ability to manipulate concepts, giving people the same feeling as the fifth generation, or even Xiao Mi is even stronger.

After all, the f14 beats the su57.

So, we see a wonderful sight: on one side, the industry is booming; on the other side, the whole world is in chaos, but only this land is prosperous and peaceful.

On one hand, there is the public opinion crying and wailing, and the entertainment industry is extremely depressed.

It's not right to "win, win, win" all day long, but is it difficult to do something normal, with warm reality themes, sweet love themes, confident and romantic historical themes, and hopeful science fiction themes?
In fact, most filmmakers have already acquired "divinity" and, intentionally or unintentionally, like to chew on shit poured in from the outside.

In the foreseeable future, Shen Santong is invincible!

Even if the company goes bankrupt, I can still do whatever I want as a director.

Anyway, the lower limit of this circle is very low.

The director is behind the scenes, and he is a drug addict but still makes movies that sell well.

Therefore, Shen Santong is also gradually looking for a balance.

Be a normal person. It is not easy to learn good things, but it is easy to learn bad things. Shen Santong is really afraid that he will lose his bottom line, which is terrible.

3 month 11 day.

A 9.0 magnitude earthquake occurred in Japan, triggering a tsunami.

3 month 15 day.

"The Thieves" started filming in Moscow.

The four knights of the Magic Thieves.

The male lead is Chen Kun, the only female lead in the Magic Thieves Group is Yang Mi, and the other two are one scripted actor and one American actor.

There are two people in the pursuit team, the female lead is Marina Alexandrova, and the other male lead is Zhou Jie.

Big Mi Mi followed the crew obediently for the filming.

No one in the domestic entertainment industry today can refuse Shen Santong’s role, let alone the female lead.

Of course, she did not give up other opportunities, as she said.

This means that after finishing "The Magic Thieves", she will have to work non-stop for several months.

It’s really cruel.

It was also on this day that Unit 2 of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant exploded.

"Nanfang People Weekly" is getting hyped.

"Earthquakes, tsunamis, nuclear leaks, this book teaches the world a lesson: high-quality and rational citizens, a responsible government that responds quickly, and a credible and free media."

Shen Santong knew that this was indeed the case.

Fukushima could have been a minor incident, but it was dragged into a top-level accident. There is nothing wrong with saying it “taught the world a lesson”!
Let’s just say it’s a lesson!

Being polite but lacking in righteousness is the most appropriate way to describe this kind of people. They are polite at ordinary times, but kick someone when he is down. They are beasts in human form.

The nuclear wastewater was discharged into the sea, and even the reconstruction of the disaster area has not been completed after more than a decade. This is not only for foreign animals, but also for our own country.

Shen Santong concentrated on filming.

The original plot of "Now You See Me" revolves around a team of four magicians called the "Four Horsemen". They use superb magic skills and cutting-edge technology to carry out a series of daring thefts in public places while avoiding the FBI's pursuit.

Four magicians with special skills, under the guidance of a mysterious man, form the "Four Horsemen" magic team.

During a performance in Las Vegas, they used a magic trick called "time travel" to "teleport" a live audience member to the safe of a bank in Paris. The cash in the safe was then "teleported" to the performance site, causing the bank to lose a large amount of cash.

This behavior attracted the attention of the FBI, and a male agent was assigned to investigate the case, while a female international police officer from the United States also participated in the assistance.

During the investigation, the male detective discovered that half of the audience at the magic show were hypnotized, but since there was no direct evidence that the "Four Horsemen" were the masterminds of the theft, they were released.

The underlying theme of the film is revenge.

The protagonist's father died in an accident during a magic show. In order to take revenge, the protagonist carried out a series of plans against four different targets.

The four targets include: the French Credit Republic Bank of Paris, because the bank held the relevant bills after his father's death; the Trelle Insurance Company that refused to pay the claim; the magic revealer, because he revealed all the magic tricks of the protagonist's father; and a private contractor who produced low-quality magic safes.

The mysterious man is a male agent who arranged everything for revenge.

The original version is a very cheesy revenge movie that contains a lot of personal stuff.

The female police officer from the country fell in love with the male FBI agent Xiao Mi, hacked into the bank of the country, and satisfied Xiao Mi's self-esteem.

In terms of "win win win", Dongda people are not a necessity, but Xiaomi cannot lose this.

The existence of the United States is based on the consensus of "winning" and can continue to plunder money.

The robber gang disbanded if they didn't "win".

Compared to the original version, Shen Santong made some magical changes.

The FBI agents were changed into an investigation team sent by the United Nations, and a senior detective from China with certain mysterious abilities was selected to lead the team, played by Zhou Jie.

Some settings of "The Martian" interact with "Inception", but they do not strengthen the extraordinary elements, but instead create a suspense that sets the atmosphere.

Highlight the United Nations. Not everything is handled by Xiao Mi.

Shen Santong's film will not reinforce the idea that the United States has the right to exercise long-arm jurisdiction.

The biggest adaptation comes from the female detective, who is turned into an Interpol agent from Xiao Mi, a Russian agent who cooperates with the United Nations investigation.

The bank that was robbed was not the Bank of China, but the Xiao Mi Financial Institution.

The Chinese name is Gaomo, and the English name is a combination of "Goldman Sachs and Morgan".

On the side of the chasing team, it was not the original male agent who designed everything, but the female agent played by Marina Alexandrova.

It's not for revenge, there is no bad guy among the protagonists on both sides of the whole play.

This female agent was born into a small oligarch family in Russia. Her ancestors had a blood relationship with the legendary Russian Empress Catherine II.

He immigrated to London with his family in the 1990s and holds dual citizenship of the United Kingdom and the United States.

I studied business in London, then went to Xiaomi to continue my studies, and stayed in the United States.

She lived a wealthy life, but when she learned what some people in her own country were doing around the world, including what was happening in her own country.

In 08, Europe and the world were plundered externally, and the middle class was plundered internally; in the s, the West deceived the Russians and plundered the Russians and Eastern Europe.

All kinds of tragedies beyond human nature made her transcend her own class.

I developed a genuine aversion to predatory finance and suspicion of the imperialism of financial capital.

He thought that the future of mankind should not be controlled by these people, so he summoned the best magicians in the world to start a protest.

This is not a story of revenge, but a rebellion against an unjust order.

One of the targets of the theft was the CEO of a health insurance company that refused to pay up to 30% of claims.

The main character of this play is not from China, but from Russia, Marina Alexandrova. The story is full of Western elements, including the Four Horsemen and Tarot cards.

Shen Santong thought about translating it into Chinese, but eventually gave up.

Telling China’s story well does not mean telling the story of the Chinese people.

When Chinese people tell stories about foreigners, as long as they conform to their own values, they are also Chinese stories.

4 month.

After Damao and Jiamada completed filming in many locations, Xiaomi handed over some exterior scenes to Group B.

Shen Santong returned to China with the crew.

There are a lot of troubles happening abroad. NATO bombed Libya and war broke out.

The entertainment industry is still a hot topic in China.

Wang Sicong wrote on his Weibo that Zhang Lan's previous statement that "Xu Xiyuan's wedding hotel (Hilton DoubleTree) was sponsored by Wang Jianlin for free" was pure rumor, and then blasted Zhang Lan for spreading rumors and not worthy of respect.

After that, he started a war of words with Wang Xiaofei, and Sicong began his journey as an internet celebrity.

Then, the sweet "Warring States" was released.

There were a lot of negative reviews. Sun Honglei’s acting was indeed very good, but "Warring States" was too heavyweight.

Everyone else was acting out, but he also started.

Entering May.

The light was hung on the first day.

The filming of the movie is entering its later stages, and Yang Mi has finished filming and is leaving the crew.

Shen Santong still took care of her and tried to concentrate on the filming. It was completed in one and a half months and he did not let her follow the crew throughout the whole process.

I am soft-hearted. Shen Santong is a gentle person after all!
Backdoor talk is nonsense.

No one was allowed through the back door!
Something happened in the circle that made Shen Santong proud of his character again.

Huayi’s amazing operation.

Wang Zhonglei came out and said, Hollywood is here, we have to do a big thing.

Huayi’s share price is expected to rise, and investors are buying in droves.

Wang Zhongjun made a move from a high position.

Wang Zhonglei came out again and said that what he said before was a lie. Hollywood is coming and we must be cautious.

It was a terrible job.

Stock market expectations fell and investors sold in droves.

Wang Zhongjun bought again at a low price.

Buy low and sell high, the emotions are all inflated by oneself, it's simply a money printing machine.

Hua Yi still followed the path of his previous life and had no intention of delving deeper into the film industry.

5 month 18 day.

After finishing the filming, Chen Chexi and Shen Santong chatted and mentioned one thing: "Painted Skin 2 is being prepared, Hua Yi and Chen Guofu want to replace Zha Tian with Shu Qi."

"Is this true?" Shen Santong really didn't know, and he didn't know if it existed in his previous life. Maybe "So Young" later chose Guangxian for cooperation instead of Huayi, so this should be the factor.

Chen Chexi nodded and said, "It happened recently. The story of Zhatian was really tragic. Back then, Baihua specially changed the rules of Lover's Knot and was targeted. Now it happened again."

"She deserves it for being targeted." Shen Santong showed no sympathy at all.

From his perspective now, what happened to Zhatian back then might not be simple.

It’s not Shen Santong’s conspiracy theory, but there really are all kinds of tricks in this circle.

Fan Bingbing was pushed, and then Wandao people joined the team.

"Zhetian" cooperated with the Hong Kong circle, and after promoting the Hong Kong circle, it obtained the resources to win awards.

Before the incident of "Zhetian" that year, Shen Santong thought it was a token of his allegiance, but now he feels that it is not that simple.

Maybe it was a "forced surrender", with people fighting inside and pulling outside in, and they were driven out.

There are really many similar techniques that are characteristic of this era.

Pushing and pulling, some didn't move, but some followed.

But we cannot say that not having top resources or being wronged is a reason to leave or go along with the crowd.

Didn’t Wu Jing feel wronged?

When Zha Tian made "So Young", no one supported him and he had no resources, so he had to transform himself into a director. Wu Jing also had no chance, so he had to promote himself as a director.

Which of those male actors in the Mesozoic era had an easy life?
The so-called "Zhetian" is very miserable, but he just doesn't have the top resources and is much better than ordinary people.

The movie "So Young" made a lot of money, but she didn't seem to be grateful at all.

Of course, the collusion between inside and outside is even more abominable.

Following the lead and fanning the flames may seem like a positive stance, but in fact the result is completely the opposite.

Sometimes, Shen Santong wished he could kill these people.
