After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 463: Earth-shattering! Unexpected Visitors!
"You want to go abroad?"

"That's right. Miss Bai can't control them. Even if you give her the power, she will eventually be sidelined by those people. I can't do that either. I don't quite understand their operations. Instead of following some people who have different paths, why don't I take a group of people overseas?"

"Location?"

"Southeast Asia."

Li Mingyang lowered his head and thought for a while, then said to Bai Bin, "You go out first."

"Southeast Asia is so poor that the Hong Kong industry doesn't want to play with them anymore...what's the point?"

"You go out first." Li Mingyang repeated.

Shirahama curled his lips and left the meeting room.

Li Mingyang watched Bai Bin leave, then turned to look at Zhang Wei, whose face was as gloomy as water.

Zhang Wei is being modest. Huazhu Entertainment is so big, and apart from Old Wu who can intimidate most people, Zhang Wei is the most charismatic.

Since she intends to go abroad.

Li Mingyang decided to take her with him and not waste time in the country...

As for what the future of Huazhu Entertainment will become, let those who remain in the country decide.

Li Mingyang and Zhang Wei talked in the conference room for more than an hour until Zhong Xiaoyu came over and urged them to attend lunch, and the two ended the conversation.

At the luncheon, Li Mingyang announced another important news.

The operation of Huabu Video has been put on hold, and Zhang Wei will go abroad with him.

The whole audience fell silent and everyone looked at Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei, who was always serious, smiled in front of everyone for the first time and said, "I will no longer interfere in the management of the company."

"Boss, you all went abroad. How are we going to manage so many people?" Li Ming said worriedly.

"Except for the Bouquet Hotel, I will be parachuting in people to manage it. You will compete among yourselves for their positions."

The whole place was in a state of excitement.

Wu Zhikui, Zhang Wei and Ye Xiangdong are in charge of cross-managing various departments of the company!
Now the three of them are going abroad with Li Mingyang.

What a huge power vacuum!

Everyone can get it!
The others cheered, but Li Ming crossed his arms, feeling that something was wrong with his boss.

Huashu Entertainment is not Mingyang Entertainment.

The stall is too big.

Raising a Gu? Don’t let it eat you!

"Sister Li, please take care of us in the future!"

"Yes!"

"Sister Li, you have finally made it. It seems like you are the boss now!"

"From now on, Sister Li is my real sister."

Li Ming was stunned and then he was surrounded by a group of people.

Faced with everyone's compliments, Li Ming's vanity exploded. He accepted all the compliments and was always smiling.

Baibin rolled his eyes.

"Mr. Bai, I've long known that you would be successful. We should cooperate more in the future!" Yang Tianzhen said with a flattering look on his face, holding a wine glass.

"Yes!" Zeng Jia echoed.

Shirahama stood up and humbly said that he knew nothing and needed help from the two.

Yang Tianzhen and Zeng Jia were also very humble, without any of their former arrogance.

There is a huge power vacuum and everyone has their own plans.

Eight hundred thoughts go into a lunch.

There has been a major change in the management, the era of fame has passed, and the era of bouquets is rising.

……

11 month 30 day.

Bouquet Hotel.

Huashu Entertainment held a press conference.

Li Mingyang first briefly described the plan of Huazhu Entertainment for the next two years.

In short, the future focus of Huazhu Entertainment is Huazhu Video.

When Li Mingyang announced that the general manager of Bouquet Video was Bai Bin.

There was an uproar at the scene.

Chen Fusheng from Yinghuang was also present at the scene, and he was stunned.

Huashu Video is the self-made department of Huashu Entertainment. Although it is still in its infancy, it has great power.

Shirahama became a member of the management team of Huabou Entertainment.

The binding force of the Shirahama brokerage contract has suddenly decreased!

"Director Li, isn't your decision too abrupt? Bai Bin is an actor!"

"Bai Bin studied law and has a sharp mind. She understands the entertainment industry and has a business sense. I think she is very suitable for this position." Li Mingyang raised his hand to signal Bai Bin to speak.

Shirahama was wearing a black uniform and a pair of silver-rimmed glasses on his nose, looking like an elite. "I'm Shirahama, and I hope you'll take care of me in the future."

"Ms. Shirabin, may I ask you how you were able to impress Director Li and become the manager of Flower Bouquet Video?"

This statement is somewhat targeted, saying that Shirahama relied on unspoken rules to get to the top.

Just as Bai Bin was about to speak, Li Mingyang patted the microphone and said, "I have worked with Bai Bin three times: Your Name, Witch, and Weathering With You. Please don't question a director's vision."

Li Mingyang turned the awkward situation around with just one sentence.

Bai Bin sat down slowly, looking at Li Mingyang from time to time, his eyes full of admiration.

"Director Li, has Weathering With You passed the review? When will it be released?"

"I haven't received the review notification yet, but it should be soon."

When faced with reporters' questions, Li Mingyang answered all the questions he knew, but he lost his former aggressiveness and fierceness.

There was a bit of silence at the scene. Everyone came here for the big news, and no one expected that Li Mingyang would be so honest.

Just as the press conference was coming to an end, a famous reporter stood up and suggested that Li Mingyang chat casually.

"Just chatting, there's one thing I can't understand."

"As we all know, Hong Kong is part of the University of the East. I have just entered the industry. Can anyone tell me why Hong Kong movies are imported? Why are they subject to restrictions on imported films?"

There was shock at the scene. No one had ever dreamed that Li Mingyang would talk about such a sensitive topic!

However, Li Mingyang's next words were even more shocking!

"We are all Chinese, why should Hong Kong films be defined as imported films? Hong Kong films are part of domestic films and should not be treated differently. I strongly suggest that the relevant departments cancel the import restrictions on Hong Kong films!"

boom!
The reporters were stunned! The bosses of major film and television companies were stunned!
The leaders of the relevant departments were also shocked!
Less than half an hour.

The news that Li Mingyang suggested lifting restrictions on imported Hong Kong films spread throughout the Chinese-speaking world, and even the relevant departments received the news.

Hong Kong films are defined as imported films, which is a very complicated matter.

At that time, domestic films were declining, while Hong Kong and Taiwan films were in their golden age.

On the one hand, it is to protect domestic products, and on the other hand, they have not returned yet.

Movies from Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau are defined as imported films.

This has been the case over time.

Zuo Shandiao relied on the restrictions on imported films to enter Hong Kong.

Even if mainland filmmakers flatter the Hong Kong industry, they would never talk about this, but Li Mingyang did! Not only did he hold a press conference, he also mentioned this matter publicly.

Also posted on Weibo!
Let everyone know about it, everyone in the world knows about it.

"Fuck, this is impossible. I've already said this, and you still don't stop me?" Li Mingyang said to Accountant Cao while holding his cell phone.

"I didn't receive any notification! I don't know..."

"Then you can just mute me!"

"This... Randomly banning people from posting will damage the reputation of Sina Weibo..."

"They won't really consider my proposal?"

"I don't quite understand..."

Li Mingyang hung up the phone angrily. He was speechless.

11 years! The restrictions on imported Hong Kong films have been lifted, and the Hong Kong industry has really come alive!

No need to look at the faces of the mainland anymore...

With Yinghuang Film and Television Academy and the lifting of restrictions on Hong Kong films, it is only a matter of time before the golden age of Hong Kong film industry returns.

How can the Beijing circle tolerate this!

Li Mingyang was waiting anxiously at Mingyang Entertainment and had no mood to attend the meeting.

After browsing Weibo for half a day, there was no movement. Netizens do not care whether Hong Kong films are imported films or domestic films.

They are more concerned about the gossip in the entertainment industry and what is interesting to watch.

"The calm before the storm?" Li Mingyang stood in front of the French window, looking up at the sky with his hands behind his back.

One day, two days, dead silent.

Of course, there have been changes. Li Mingyang was banned twice and unbanned twice.

The attitudes above are different!

Just when Li Mingyang’s patience was exhausted and he was ready to bypass everyone’s reaction and directly launch an all-map attack.

The lower-class people in the Hong Kong circle in Hengdian could no longer sit still and came to Mingyang Entertainment to check in, responding to Li Mingyang's call and expressing that Hong Kong is part of Dongda and should not be treated differently.

Soon, some well-known directors in the Hong Kong circle also praised Li Mingyang when attending events, and hoped that the authorities would not discriminate against Hong Kong films.

When the director came to the table, celebrities from all walks of life in Hong Kong also responded.

The cake that Li Mingyang threw out was too big, and the Hong Kong circle was suppressed. The most fundamental reason was the restrictions on imported films.

As a last resort, they have to resort to co-production to circumvent restrictions on imported films.

Otherwise, with a quota of less than 20 imported films a year, the Hong Kong film industry would have starved to death long ago...

Yanbei, a club.

"We can't wait any longer. Zuoshandiao has already set out to return. Let's all work together to solve the issue of imported films," Jackie Chan suggested.

"No, this must be Li Mingyang's evil plan!"

"Who cares? It's a rare opportunity. If I don't take it, I'd be stupid!"

"If I miss this opportunity, I don't know if there will be another chance."

"I think Li Mingyang is a good kid. We shouldn't resist him. He has completely fallen out with the mainland. We should support him."

"Kid, you're a loser! You're the kind of person that he can kill!"

"Whatever you want to do, it's up to you. I'm going to charge anyway! This is our best chance. I don't care about your mother. Ah Fa, call Ah Gu and tell him to find an event to attend and show your support!"

"Where's Hua Zai? Where's he? Why is his phone turned off?"

"Get through!"

"Hurry! Let him go to Hengdian!"

Chen Fusheng opened his mouth more than ten times but couldn't utter a word because he couldn't persuade anyone!
To be honest, the restrictions on imported Hong Kong films are of no use to Yinghuang. But for these people, it has opened a huge loophole.

The Hong Kong community, from the bottom up, roared in unison.

Everyone in the Beijing circle was waiting for Zuoshandiao to take charge of the situation. However, what the Beijing circle did not expect was that Zuoshandiao suddenly got off the plane when it was about to take off and did not return to China.

When the bigwigs in the Beijing circle learned the news, they were shocked and angry.

"Can the Academy Awards be eaten or can they make you immortal? What the hell!"

"We can't wait any longer. Let's start cooking right away. If we wait any longer, the cucumbers will get cold."

"If you don't do anything, you'll think we've agreed."

"Ce Na, the mainland has finally started to improve, we must not let Li Houzi ruin things."

"It's not a good idea to directly mess with the Hong Kong circle."

"We can just bombard Li Houzi with this matter and that's it."

"This must be Monkey Li's conspiracy!"

"Even if it's his conspiracy, we have to act now, otherwise we'll all be left with nothing."

"First, we need to discredit Li Houzi and destroy his right to speak."

"What the hell, if the eagle doesn't come back, I'll just destroy it. I don't want to see him again."

"Let's talk to the media. It's time to take action."

Because of the issue of imported Hong Kong films, the Beijing and Hong Kong circles had a falling out.

In invisible places, a struggle for interests is quietly unfolding.

Most people can only pay attention to the fact that Li Mingyang was attacked and slandered, and all kinds of negative news emerged one after another.

The mainstream media wielded their pens and for the first time brought up the lawsuit in which Li Mingyang severed relations with his parents.

While in school, I skipped classes and was almost expelled.

Living off women, cheating on their money and feelings.

The female classmates who were secretly exploited include No. 208.

During the filming of Your Name, the actors were beaten and insulted.

During the movie promotion period, he had private contact with fans and slept with them.

The box office revenue of your name is fake, and the so-called billion-dollar director is just a fraud.

True and false news.

Disloyalty, injustice, and unfilial piety.

The entire Internet was filled with news that was unfavorable to Li Mingyang. For a time, Li Mingyang was condemned by everyone and mocked by netizens.

"What billionaire director? He's just a puppet pushed up by capital."

"The real box office appeal is the witch."

"Anyone can be a director. Your name doesn't look good at all."

"+1, Let the Bullets Fly is a great movie. Your name is not even worthy of carrying shoes."

"Feng Kuazi and Li Mingyang are all fake. Only Let the Bullets Fly is the real billion-dollar blockbuster."

"Look at the box office of domestic films this year, and then look at the box office of domestic films last year. It's all fake. They're just trying to inflate the box office, but they don't care about their reputation at all."

"Bai Bin was threatened by the photo, right? My Yu Shu! Give me back Princess Yu Shu."

"I only took three days of classes at Beijing Film Academy, and this is not even as good as a vocational high school class. Is this true?"

"This was sent by Li Mingyang's teacher. How could it be fake?"

"And there's more! Li Mingyang used the name of Beijing Film Academy to cheat people and deceived many people."

"Fuck, this is such a piece of shit. Just because he's rich, he wants to cut off ties with his parents. What kind of scum is this! He's worse than pigs and dogs."

"Rumors, these are all rumors, someone is slandering my idol."

"They're idols, the ones to vomit on! Haha!"

"You can only know a person's face but not his heart. I won't be a fan of him anymore. I won't be a fan of him anymore. He's a scumbag! He's completely reduced to ash!"

"Li Mingyang is a liar. He didn't win any awards at the Golden Rooster and Golden Horse Awards. It seems that everyone in the industry knows what kind of person he is."

"How can he write, direct and act on his own? He is just a puppet held up by capital. Chen Jiashang is indeed the real director in your name, and Li Mingyang is just a liar who deceives the world and steals his reputation."

"The witch is so disgusting, it is a true reflection of Li Mingyang's inner heart."

"Brother is a good guy! You are all bad guys."

"Poor victims! The screenwriter! The editor! The music! They didn't even have a name, and all of them were taken away by Li Mingyang! This is too much!"

"If you are unfaithful, unrighteous and unfilial, you are unworthy of being a human being!"

Facing ridicule from netizens.

Li Mingyang was directly banned from posting on Weibo just because he questioned why Weathering With You failed to pass review.

"Fuck... just mute me." Li Mingyang let out a long breath, feeling quite unhappy.

After a while, Li Mingyang lit a cigarette and suddenly laughed out loud, "Finally it has come to this."

"Um, how is this going to end now?" Ye Xiangdong asked.

"How can this end?" Wu Zhikui asked back.

"Stop it! Let's die together." Li Mingyang grinned.

Zhang Wei shook her head. "Fame is a double-edged sword... You've tried very hard not to go to Hollywood."

"No, no, netizens are blindly following others, following the herd mentality. They don't understand the truth at all. The public opinion online cannot change the fact that I went to Hollywood."

"But your reputation is ruined."

"Zhang Wei! All directors in the industry are like this. I guess many people now think I am more like someone in the industry."

"So scumbag?"

"There is no worst, only worse. Movie directors either rely on awards or box office. Everything else is secondary." Li Mingyang said calmly.

Zhang Wei shook her head, sighing inwardly that the entertainment industry was really chaotic.

The phone on the table rang and Li Mingyang pressed the speakerphone button.

"Director Li, Ah Huo wants to see you."

"Let him come up."

Ah Huo is a nickname, my full name is Zhao Huo, and I am a student from the Photography Department of Beijing Film Academy.

His photography skills are okay, but he is best at drawing and has the heart of a cartoonist.

I have been submitting articles since high school, but without exception, all of them have been rejected, and I can only entertain myself.

Li Mingyang had high hopes for him, but who knew this guy would run away.

Ah Huo walked into Li Mingyang's office and saw Wu Zhikui and Ye Xiangdong. He scratched his head in embarrassment.

"what's up?"

"Director Li, I want to come back."

"Didn't you go to Wanda? It seems you didn't stay there for long. Why do you want to come back? Did they treat you badly?"

Ah Huo shook his head. "The treatment is quite good, and they value me... But, I still want to paint..."

"Wanda can also draw."

"I don't want to draw storyboards anymore, I want to draw comics..."

"Let me think."

"Director Li, I want to work on comics with Xiaoye. I'm willing to start from the bottom."

Ye Xiangdong's face darkened instantly: "Don't mention comics to me anymore, I have lost hundreds of thousands...even a house!"

"Uh, you're not doing it anymore?
"What the hell! I've been scolded by my girlfriend for more than half a month, and the comic magazine is dead..."

“You can make a web comic!”

"No one is paying for it... I can't even finish reading pirated Japanese comics, so who would bother reading Chinese comics?"

Ah Huo was disappointed and bored because he didn't find any friendly troops.

"Director Li, this... I'm leaving first."

"You resigned?"

"Ah."

"You resign without asking anything clearly..."

"Nothing goes according to plan. I'm in Wanda, and my brain is like a paste. It's so boring."

"What are your plans next?"

"I feel like I can't draw storyboards anymore. I'm going to go to Zhiyin Manke to have a look. If that doesn't work, I'll go to Xiaorizi to learn."

After Ah Huo finished speaking, he saw that Li Mingyang stopped talking and left.

"Ahuo's character is quite real..." said Old Wu.

Li Mingyang smiled noncommittally. "Let's see how long he can hold out."

"Want to take him with you?"

"I strongly recommend bringing Brother Huo with you! I'm interested in comics, but I can't draw them! That studio is so boring and tedious! Only Brother Huo understands them."

The storyboard team of Mingyang Entertainment was originally just a small group of the special effects department.

It was structured by Zhang Zhao, and the first batch of storyboard artists were selected internally by Zhang Zhao and recruited from outside.

But this department finally flourished in Ah Huo's hands.

Li Mingyang had no regrets when other people left, but he felt really sorry when Ah Huo left.

Storyboards are the core of the film industry's "one center, multiple blossoms".

The production of Witch and Weathering With You is inseparable from Ah Huo’s good preparatory work.

He can make the storyboard he wants.

"Let's talk to Ah Huo when we leave."

Li Mingyang thought for a moment, "How many people are there now?"

"Including Ah Huo, there are 68 people." Wu Zhikui said as he flipped through the list.

"Too little." said Zhang Wei.

"If there are more, it will destroy the foundation of our fame," said Wu Zhikui.

In the past two days, the four have been discussing the list of people going abroad.

All the storyboard artists were taken away.

More than 20 people were picked from behind the scenes of Weathering With You, and a dozen were randomly selected from the Bouquet Hotel, mainly Li Ming's people.

They are all old men! They are all elites!
"Don't touch the foundation. Just leave it like this for now. The three of you go talk to them and try to get them to go abroad with me. It's okay if they don't want to. Not everyone can risk their lives for their dreams."

"Let's talk about dreams. Shouldn't we talk about money..." Wu Zhikui said with a smile.

"Yes, talk about money!"

After the three people left, Li Mingyang finished his plans for tomorrow and was about to go home when someone he didn't expect came.

Liu Dehua.
