Chapter 271 Let me use it first
Chapter 271 Let me use it first
"I hate this feeling."
Liu Jing hung up the phone and couldn't help but complain.
(Several hundred words of introduction omitted...)
If this subject matter is not filmed properly, it could easily cause a controversy.
The established tone is to avoid fabricating core historical facts and to refrain from inciting hatred.
That's why the Film Bureau hasn't approved any scripts on this subject recently.
They neither said that taking pictures was allowed, nor did they say that taking pictures was allowed; they just left it there.
Lu Chuan's "Nanjing" had been prepared for a long time, but he had been waiting for the filming permit.
In addition to telling Liu Jing these things, Teacher An also talked about his recent work in the local area. Thanks to the old man's old comrade-in-arms, he has successfully opened up the situation and gained a foothold.
Da da da……
Liu Jing tapped on the table, thinking about how to proceed.
"What's going on?" Zhang Min asked, pushing open the door in surprise.
"I was thinking about something." Liu Jing stood up, even more surprised. "Sis, you've lost so much weight!"
He and Zhang Min hadn't seen each other for a long time, at least a month.
At the end of last year, Zhang Min led her team to visit markets in various places, and worked overtime during the Spring Festival to develop and improve the Huayang plan.
Even after the New Year, she was still busy, with her aunt handling the company relocation.
"You asked me to play Zhao Min, right? I can't possibly play Zhao Min like Li Mochou, can I?" Zhang Min rolled her eyes. "You heartless bastard! If I don't come looking for you, you won't come looking for me!"
"It's too small." Liu Jing stared at a certain spot, his tone full of regret.
Zhang Min's expression changed, and she winked at Liu Jing, "It's not small, seventy or eighty square meters, enough for me. People often come to visit you, so a larger size is better."
Liu Jing immediately understood, because his aunt was a step behind and followed Zhang Min.
"Hey! Wood, you're really biased. My office is even smaller than Min-jie's, and I didn't even hear you say a word," Auntie teased.
"Auntie, I need your help with something, and it just so happens that you're here." Liu Jing suddenly had an idea.
"What's up? Iron Man?" Auntie asked, puzzled.
"No! Do you know the publisher of Xiao Ri Zi?" Liu Jing asked.
"You know quite a few people, what's wrong? Do you want to publish a book?" Auntie asked, even more puzzled.
She owns a publishing company and is one of its shareholders, so she naturally knows the publishers there.
"I want to find someone to translate Iris Chang's book into Japanese and publish it on Little Days."
"This is no easy task," my aunt said with a wry smile. She really knows how to give me a difficult problem.
The book did try to be published on Little Days, but they required annotations and the removal of some passages and photos.
Naturally, they didn't agree, so the matter was left unresolved.
“If it were something easy, I wouldn’t have asked you, Auntie.”
"What a flatterer! Let me ask..."
"Don't ask questions, just do it, no matter how much it costs."
Seeing that Liu Jing was very serious, his aunt stopped joking.
She had barely sat down on the sofa when she quickly got up again. "Okay, I'll take care of it right now. Someone translated it into Japanese a few years ago, but unfortunately it wasn't published. I'll talk to him first. By the way, here's the progress report from Chunqiu Film City. The filming location for 'The Sacred Flame' is almost finished."
My aunt had just left when Fatty Wang came over again.
Zhang Min's eyes were deep and unsettling; she wasn't giving us a single moment to have a private conversation.
"Mr. Min, that brat Liu Jing is overstepping his bounds. Your and Wen Qiong's offices combined aren't even as big as the little devil's. His ambition is blatantly obvious; he clearly wants to be above both of you. This is intolerable! If I were you, I'd definitely spank him and tell him why the flowers are so red." Fatty Wang provoked him openly.
"You fatso, why aren't you over there monitoring the progress? What are you doing here?" Zhang Min said irritably. I'd rather he hit me than me.
"Script, project plan, crew list." Fatty Wang took out three documents from his briefcase under his arm and slammed them on the table.
"Aren't you making 'The Sharpshooter and the Wise Man'?" Zhang Min asked in surprise. The fat guy was getting more and more efficient.
"Fatty Wang, you've already decided on all the roles, what do you need me as the director for?" Liu Jing flipped through the personnel list. In addition to the costume, makeup and props staff, there was also a cast list, clearly listing who the supporting actors were.
Zhang Wuji – Liu Jing, Zhao Min – Zhang Min, Zhou Zhiruo – Gao Yuanyuan, Xiao Zhao – Jing Tian, Golden Lion King Xie Xun – Xu Jinjiang, Green-Winged Bat King Wei Yixiao – Wu Yaohan, White-Browed Eagle King Yin Tianzheng – Shao Wanlin, Purple-Robed Dragon King – Chen Zihan, Yang Xiao – Sun Xing, Fan Yao – Ni Dahong, Deer Staff Guest – Liang Jiaren, Crane Pen Elder – Zhang Zhongchun, Song Qingshu – Zou Zhaolong, Two Elders of Mount Hua – Tian Qiwen and Lin Zicong, Zhu Yuanzhang – Ji Qilin, Abbess Miejue – Zhou Haimei, Abbot of Shaolin – Ma Zijun, Ding Minjun – Lin Jing, Cheng Kun – Xu Shaoqiang…
"Don't worry! It's the same cast, so there wasn't much casting work to begin with. You're having an easy time as the director," Fatty Wang said dismissively.
"The action director is Hung Kam-po, why not let him continue playing Zhang Sanfeng?" Liu Jing asked, puzzled.
"Min is really amazing; she lost weight so easily. Hong Jinbao can't lose weight, and Zhang Sanfeng isn't a pig. Yu Wenzhong is almost eighty, and our film has a lot of action scenes, so he can't film them. I've sent an invitation to Yu Chenghui, and we should get a reply in the next couple of days," Fatty Wang added.
"You actually invited Sister Hai Mei to play Abbess Miejue?" Liu Jing exclaimed in surprise. He thought Fatty Wang was just talking, but he didn't expect him to actually do it.
"In my plays, the beauties are always the most beautiful. Even if it's Abbess Miejue, I'll make her beautiful to a new level and ruthless in a new way." Fatty Wang said with a proud look.
Liu Jing opened his mouth, wanting to say that this was his play.
Fatty Wang seemed to know what he was going to say and continued, "Brother, you have two tasks now. First, familiarize yourself with Zhang Wuji's script. Second, quickly develop a shooting plan, and it would be best to draw up a storyboard. With a shooting plan, I can arrange their arrival time on set. This is what you, as the lead actor and director, should do; I can't help you with this."
"You fatso, this is Zhang Wuji's script. Where's mine?" Zhang Min flipped through a couple of pages and then threw them back on the table.
"Oh, my dear CEO Min, I didn't know you were at the company. I'm meeting with Liu Jing to discuss something, and of course I brought his script. Don't worry, I'll have someone bring it over right away." Fatty Wang took out his phone and quickly called for help.
"Fatty, when does filming for this movie start?" Zhang Min asked.
“Mr. Min, you’re putting us in a difficult position. Liu Jing is the director, you should ask him.” Fatty Wang spread his hands, “I’m just a producer, not a director.”
"April 20th, that day happens to be Grain Rain." Liu Jing had already considered this in his mind.
“Okay! You name the date, that’s fine. It doesn’t matter if it’s Grain Rain or even Qingming Festival.” Fatty Wang agreed with both hands.
"Fatty, the Spring Blossom Project is in its first year, don't let it interfere with things here," Zhang Min said worriedly.
“We’ve known each other for so many years, and I’ve done several things at the same time. Have you ever seen me neglect anything? If it weren’t for Liu Jing directing his first film independently, I wouldn’t even need to go to the set. You two can rest assured about what I, Fatty Wang, do.” Fatty Wang patted his chest confidently. Was the Spring Flower Project a problem? Not at all.
How many people signed up?
"Several hundred people have applied, and we are currently conducting the first round of screening..."
Fatty Wang and Zhang Min discussed the Spring Flower Project, while Liu Jing silently looked at his script.
Liu Jing was also one of the screenwriters. The final script was almost a completely different script from Wang Pangzi's initial draft.
The new script is divided into four acts: Dadu, Ice and Fire Island, Shaolin, and the final battle.
Act One, Dadu (Beijing).
Zhang Wuji led the Ming Cult members to Dadu to rescue the six major sects. Fan Yao appeared and recognized him, and told Zhang Wuji some information.
In Wan'an Temple, Abbess Miejue passed the leadership of the Emei Sect to Zhou Zhiruo, told her the secret of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, and made her swear not to marry Zhang Wuji.
Wang Baobao led his troops to guard Wan'an Temple and set up numerous traps inside, causing heavy casualties among the Ming Cult followers.
Zhang Wuji displayed his extraordinary prowess, defeating the guards and taking Wang Baobao hostage.
Zhao Min appeared and ordered the burning of Wan'an Temple Pagoda, intending to burn the people of the six major sects to death.
Zhang Wuji used the Great Shift of the Universe to save the disciples of the six major sects who were about to jump off a building. However, Abbess Miejue, not wanting to be saved by Zhang Wuji, pushed Zhou Zhiruo off the building instead.
Zhang Wuji caught Zhou Zhiruo from below. Meanwhile, Abbess Miejue and Hebi Weng were locked in a fierce battle, both falling from the building. Remembering the past grudge, Zhang Wuji struck Hebi Weng with a single blow, sending him engulfed in flames and burning to death.
Abbess Miejue refused to accept the favor, pushed Zhang Wuji with her palm, and died on the spot.
Zhao Min led her army to surround Wan'an Temple. In order to save her brother, she had no choice but to let the Ming Cult members and disciples of the six major sects leave.
Zhao Min was punished for her incompetence and was confined to her quarters by the Prince of Ruyang, who also stripped her of her power.
Once, in order to save Yu Daiyan and Yin Liting, Zhang Wuji demanded the Black Jade Ointment and agreed to three conditions from Zhao Min.
Zhao Min's first condition was to borrow the Dragon-Slaying Saber for a look.
Zhao Min lost power and drank alone in despair. Zhang Wuji went to the appointment, wanting to fulfill his past promise.
Zhang Wuji asked Zhao Min to go with him to Icefire Island to see Xie Xun, where the Dragon-Slaying Saber was located.
The Emei Sect disciples buried Abbess Miejue, and Ding Minjun made trouble for Zhou Zhiruo, aiming for the position of sect leader. Zhang Wuji rescued Zhou Zhiruo and took her to Ice and Fire Island.
Act Two, Ice and Fire Island.
Zhang Wuji, accompanied by three beauties, went to Icefire Island and was greatly surprised to learn of Xie Xun and the Dragon-Slaying Saber. Zhou Zhiruo's eyes flickered as she secretly plotted. Xiao Zhao secretly delivered the news to the Persian Ming Cult's leader.
The Purple-Robed Dragon King arrived at Icefire Island ahead of time, imprisoned Xie Xun, and seized the Dragon-Slaying Saber.
The three envoys, Feng, Yun, and Yue, possessed bizarre martial arts skills, putting Zhang Wuji at a disadvantage. Zhang Wuji then used the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth to steal the Sacred Flame Token.
Xiao Zhao, feeling guilty, revealed the secret of the Sacred Flame Token. It turned out that there were three Sacred Flame Tokens in total; one of them ended up with the Ming Cult in Persia by mistake, while the other two remained with the Ming Cult in China.
One of the coins was in the possession of the cult leader, but its whereabouts became unknown after Yang Dingtian's death.
The last one is in a mysterious place, known only to the leaders of each generation.
Xiao Zhao helped Zhang Wuji translate the martial arts techniques on the paper, and Zhang Wuji understood the methods and easily defeated the three envoys, Feng, Yun, and Yue.
Xiao Zhao was taken away by the Purple-Robed Dragon King, the ship was destroyed, and Zhang Wuji, Zhao Min, and Zhou Zhiruo remained on Icefire Island.
Zhao Min and Xie Xun were discussing the secrets of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber when Zhou Zhiruo, worried about being discovered, used a sleeping potion to knock them unconscious.
Then kill Zhao Min and throw her into the sea.
She slashed at each other with swords and found the secret manual hidden inside.
The Dragon-Slaying Saber contains the "Martial Arts Manual of Yue Fei," while the Heaven-Reliant Sword contains the complete and accelerated versions of the "Nine Yin Manual" and the essence of the "Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms."
Zhang Wuji, possessing profound martial arts skills, sensed something amiss and quickly circulated his internal energy to expel the poison, thus uncovering the secret of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber.
Zhou Zhiruo walked towards him with her sword in hand. He had not yet recovered his strength and injured Zhou Zhiruo with a single palm strike.
Zhou Zhiruo seized the opportunity to escape, taking with her the "Nine Yin Manual" and the "Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms".
Zhang Wuji chased after them, but Zhou Zhiruo left by boat, leaving the two of them behind on Icefire Island.
Zhang Wuji and Xie Xun built a ship, waiting for the monsoon to arrive, while simultaneously studying the "Wumu's Legacy." Under Xie Xun's tutelage, he grasped the way of a king.
Only King Cheng can exact revenge. Behind Cheng Kun are not only the six major sects, but also political forces. To use the power of the martial arts world to oppose the imperial court is futile, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Act Three, Shaolin.
After Zhou Zhiruo returned, she did not immediately go to Emei Mountain, but instead devoted herself to practicing the accelerated version of the Nine Yin Manual.
Once she had mastered her skills, she killed Ding Minjun and regained control of Emei.
Zhao Min did not die. She returned to Dadu and joined forces with Cheng Kun to destroy the six major sects.
Cheng Kun spread the news that the Ming Cult's Sacred Flame Token had appeared at Shaolin Temple.
The Ming Cult and the five major sects gathered at Shaolin Temple, and under Cheng Kun's instigation, the Ming Cult and the six major sects fought a great battle.
Zhou Zhiruo defeated Yin Tianzheng with the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, greatly increasing her prestige and making her the leader of the righteous path.
Zhang Wuji personally went to Shaolin Temple, turned the tide, and thwarted Cheng Kun's conspiracy.
Cheng Kun, wearing a mask, hid in the crowd, but was discovered by the Golden Lion King. Zhang Wuji captured Cheng Kun and exposed his true identity.
Cheng Kun kowtowed and begged for forgiveness, injured the Golden Lion King, and escaped in the chaos.
Act Four, The Final Battle.
Zhou Zhiruo confessed her feelings to Zhang Wuji. Disappointed with Zhao Min and wanting to control the power of the six major sects, Zhang Wuji agreed to marry Zhou Zhiruo.
On their wedding day, Zhao Min came to their door and put forward a second condition: she was not allowed to marry Zhou Zhiruo, and she told Zhang Wuji that if he wanted to kill Cheng Kun to avenge himself, he should go with her.
Zhou Zhiruo harbored deep resentment and joined forces with Cheng Kun to destroy the Ming Cult and kill Zhao Min.
Cheng Kun infiltrated the Ming Cult's secret passage and discovered Yang Dingtian's remains, along with the Sacred Flame Token. He was driven away by Zhang Wuji, but took the token with him. The token contained secret methods for bewitching people and evil techniques for creating corpse puppets.
Cheng Kun later sneaked into the secret passage and refined Yang Dingtian's remains into a corpse puppet, which he then hid in the Ruyang Prince's Mansion.
He used the Sacred Flame Token to reforge the Heaven-Reliant Sword, captured the Golden-Haired Lion King, and planned to blackmail Zhang Wuji, but Zhao Min discovered his plan.
Zhang Wuji, leading Ming Cult masters, infiltrated the Ruyang Prince's mansion with the intention of killing Cheng Kun and rescuing his adoptive father.
The corpse puppet is impervious to swords and spears and possesses immense strength; Zhou Zhiruo's martial arts are bizarre.
Even with their combined strength, Zhang Wuji was no match and had no choice but to retreat. Taking advantage of the chaos, Zhao Min secretly released the Golden Lion King.
Zhang Wuji wanted to reforge the Dragon-Slaying Saber, but one token wasn't enough.
Xiao Zhao appears and sees some information at the Persian headquarters, discovering the whereabouts of the third token.
Within the Ming Cult's secret passages lies an underground palace, the method of which only successive leaders know. Inside is a luminous altar, containing the final Sacred Flame Token.
Xiao Zhao performs the Hu Xuan dance at the entrance of the underground palace to open it and obtain the Sacred Flame Token.
Cheng Kun, relying on the corpse puppet to repel Zhang Wuji, grew ambitious. He ordered Zhou Zhiruo and Song Qingshu to assassinate Zhang Sanfeng, intending to destroy Wudang.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Sanfeng was extremely powerful, and even though he was seriously injured, he almost destroyed the corpse puppet.
Cheng Kun led a large army, intending to take the opportunity to destroy the Ming Cult.
With the sect leader absent, only the two carefree envoys, the White-browed Eagle King, and the Green-winged Bat King remained in the sect.
The Ming Cult disciples were no match for them, and chanted their cult hymns in preparation for martyrdom: "Burn my broken body, blazing holy fire, what joy is there in living, what bitterness in dying..."
At the critical moment of life and death, Xie Xun appeared with his Lion's Roar skill, and the Purple-Robed Dragon King led his disciples and Zhao Min led her Wudang disciples to come to their aid.
Other sects understood the principle of mutual dependence and did not stand idly by.
Zhang Wuji returned shortly after and handed the two tokens to the Fiery Banner.
Xie Xun was at a disadvantage against Cheng Kun, and Zhang Wuji was at a disadvantage against the Corpse Puppet.
Zhou Zhiruo's martial arts were unpredictable and invincible. The woman in yellow descended from the sky, easily defeating Zhou Zhiruo and crippling her martial arts.
After the Dragon-Slaying Saber was forged, Zhang Wuji used it to destroy the corpse puppet and reclaim the Heaven-Reliant Sword.
The Golden Lion King killed Cheng Kun, successfully avenging himself. Xiao Zhao followed the Purple-Robed Dragon King back to Persia to take over as leader of the Ming Cult.
Xiao Zhao looked at the young master, turning back every few steps, reluctant to part.
Zhao Min quietly left, secretly watching Zhang Xiaoling, not knowing when they would meet again.
As Zhou Zhiruo was led away by the woman in yellow, she looked at her brother Wuji and felt as if she had returned to the banks of the Han River.
The three women looked at Zhang Wuji, while Zhang Wuji looked towards Dadu.
(Adapting is more tiring than writing a book. Plagiarism is much more comfortable; writing these things is a thankless and arduous task.)
"Phew! The Xuanming Elders, the Huashan Elders, and Wei Yixiao, these three are still the atmosphere-maker." Liu Jing finished reading the script in one go, let out a light breath, and felt that it was much more exciting than the first draft.
For example, when the two elders of Xuanming were guarding Wan'an Temple, they were caught peeping at erotic pictures and tried to justify themselves by saying that they were studying Persian martial arts.
For example, Wei Yixiao secretly drank some wine and complained that the foreign liquor tasted worse than human blood.
"The string can't be kept taut forever, or the audience won't be able to stand it." Fatty Wang chuckled, then changed the subject, "However, bad guys shouldn't get away with it, and good guys shouldn't have bad endings. We still need to cater to the audience on this point."
"What does this last scene mean?" Zhang Min flipped to the end of the script, somewhat puzzled.
"The three women have eyes for the young master, but the young master has eyes for the empire," Fatty Wang explained.
"Who's playing the woman in yellow? She's not on the cast list," Liu Jing asked, puzzled.
"You're the director, you handle it." Fatty Wang smiled like an aunt. He was a shrewd man, and after spending a lot of time with the siblings, he had noticed some clues.
"It's not easy, but it's also not easy." Zhang Min glanced at Liu Jing. It should be a good thing now, right? I've emptied my pockets for Qianqian.
"This..." Liu Jing hesitated.
Sissi plays the woman in yellow, who appears in the final battle.
Jing Tian plays Xiao Zhao, Zhang Min plays Zhao Min, Gao Yuanyuan plays Zhou Zhiruo...
He felt like he was dreaming again, with Xixi turning on him, crippling Zhou Zhiruo, killing Xiao Zhao, and humiliating Zhao Min.
Liu Jing shook his head, trying to shake those images out of his mind.
After this movie is finished, it will probably give Sissi another source of material for her dreams.
“I’ve selected three alternative locations for each scene. You’re the director, so you choose one.” Fatty Wang took out another document and pushed it to Liu Jing.
Liu Jing was bewildered. "Wang Pangzi, can you please not be so capable? I feel like I'm being fed by the director."
"This is the actors' schedule; you can use this to plan your filming schedule."
"These are some materials and data left over from the filming of 'The Cult Leader' fourteen years ago. You can use them for reference."
"This is my plan for the sequel back then, along with some storyboard materials..."
"This is……"
Wang Pangzi's briefcase was like a treasure chest; he would pull out stacks of documents, which Liu Jing would receive with a blank expression.
Next time I'm filming, I absolutely can't bring Fatty Wang along; there's no sense of accomplishment at all.
-
When it comes to efficiency, my aunt is the best.
In just a few days, the publishing process was completed.
Two weeks later, the book "The Rape of Nanking: The Forgotten Holocaust" appeared in Xiao Rizi's bookstore.
Upon its release, it caused a huge uproar.
Some cursed, some mocked, some attacked, some questioned, some resisted...
Many people have also begun to seek the truth of this historical event.
The relevant departments openly expressed their dissatisfaction with this behavior.
Liu Jing didn't care about these things; foreign affairs were none of his business.
He's busy arguing with someone, like he's on steroids.
In early March, it was revealed that Gao Yuanyuan had been kicked out of the "Nanjing" film crew by the director...
In short, the director wanted to find an actor who offered better value for money.
If that's all there is to it, then so be it.
Actors often leave the production for various reasons. It's common for them to refuse to act if it's not a good fit.
When a reporter interviewed the director at an event and asked about this matter, the director said directly, "I never use actors who lack professional ethics."
This was a direct insult, naming names and insults. The reporter was very excited; the news was explosive.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves; netizens are always the most shrewd.
They quickly uncovered the whole story.
Gao Yuanyuan accepted the role at a "friendship price," which was the first thing to be revealed.
The film crew hasn't started shooting yet, so there's no chance for me to act like a diva.
As for whether her acting skills are up to par, are we judging Gao Yuanyuan based on her acting skills?
No need to wash, Gao Yuanyuan's skin is naturally fair, and her fans began to question the director's intentions.
Lu Chuan couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up again, "Someone secretly read the script they sent to Gao Yuanyuan and followed suit by filming a film on the same subject."
As a result, many of Gao Yuanyuan's fans angrily criticized Liu Jing, and few people paid attention to the script.
"To act at nineteen, especially in this kind of role, is truly overestimating oneself. I would also like to offer two words of advice: study hard and talk about it after graduation."
"Overestimating themselves, they really think that attending a two-day directing class makes them a great director."
"I heard that all the artists in their company, regardless of gender, have to sleep with the young master first. Only if the young master is satisfied can they sign a contract."
"Gao Yuanyuan is blind to be with someone like that. She should terminate her contract with the company immediately."
"What a piece of trash actor, I've never liked his acting."
"Liu Yifei's younger brother is not very good. He really embarrasses his sister."
"It's not the older sister anymore. Judging by the looks of it, even a celestial being couldn't escape the clutches of this scourge."
"At least they dared to film it and let the world know about that incident."
"I've heard of song plagiarism before, but this is the first time I've heard of script plagiarism."
"You're lucky to be upstairs. Someone plagiarized and became a great writer. The court ruled against them last year, what a pity..."
……
While some people spread negative messages, others spread positive ones.
When it comes to online trolls, these companies are really not as good as Chunqiu, not even as good as Tangren.
If the timing is right, even the most heinous crimes can become treasures.
The director's family history spanning three generations has been exposed, and some people have even spread rumors that there were unspoken rules in the casting of "Nanjing".
The production team of "Nanjing" has been thoroughly investigated, and with more and more script content leaking out, there's no need to stir up any controversy.
Angry netizens almost tore the film crew apart.
Liu Jing was also puzzled. He still had some professional ethics and had not revealed the contents of the script at all.
Insiders are releasing information bit by bit, specifically focusing on the crooked parts.
On the domestic internet, Chunqiu can find out anything it wants.
It was quickly discovered that this was Huayi's doing.
Hua Yi wasn't seeking revenge for Liu Jing, but rather taking the opportunity to avenge himself and kick someone when they're down.
Director Lu has a three-film contract with Huayi Brothers. Huayi invested in the first two films, "Kekexili" and "Looking for a Gun." Although the box office was not high, the cooperation between the two parties was relatively good.
When he was filming his third movie, Huayi Brothers naturally had to invest.
Later, Huayi reviewed the script and felt that the play would lose money, so they asked Director Lu to revise the script and reduce the investment.
Director Lu has already found funding channels and is ignoring Huayi; it's up to you whether you invest or not.
Huayi withdrew its investment and started a new project, collaborating with foreign partners to film "The Diary of John Rabe".
This film is also awaiting approval, and the production team is simultaneously carrying out preparations.
Dang Dang Dang...
The glass door clicked crisply; the assistant knocked twice and then pushed the door open to enter.
Knocking on the door is a sign of politeness, and not waiting for a response is a sign of trust.
"Boss, something terrible has happened!" The assistant came running over, panting.
Running in high heels has become a skill she's mastered.
She gently patted her chest, took a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator, and drank half of it in one gulp.
"You're not feeling well, don't drink anything cold," Liu Jing kindly reminded him.
The assistant rolled her eyes at her. "Can't you even be a human being?"
Working like oxen and horses during the day, exhausting themselves. Continuing to work like oxen and horses at night, further exhausting themselves.
Even a god couldn't withstand it if it happened several times a night.
She missed those ladies so much. What's wrong with you all lately? You're all so busy.
She also wanted to disappear, but she was busy right in front of the young master, and could be kept busy at any time.
She watched her boss intently, his fingers flying across the keyboard, and wondered if he was writing a script.
I went over to take a look, and wow, it was a go-kart track, and a reverse one at that. The boss must be really busy.
"It will be over soon."
"When you say 'quick,' it usually means at least ten minutes." Bai Bing pouted. "You always manage to fool me like this. If this keeps up..."
"Holy crap..." Liu Jing's hand wobbled, and he was quickly overtaken by the second-place player, unable to catch up any longer.
"Not bad, not bad, fourth place." The assistant grinned.
Liu Jing's face darkened. There were only four people in total, and this was the last game. Their ten-game winning streak was about to end.
"Come on, I'll teach you how to speak." Liu Jing stood up.
Bai Binghua turned pale and quickly begged for mercy, "Brother, people have Saturdays and Sundays when they work. Please let me rest for a day, for the sake of today being March 315th."
"Today is March 315th? I should take a day off." Liu Jing muttered. Qin Shi Investment also has physical businesses, so he pays close attention to the gala.
"Boss, several companies have withdrawn their investment from 'Nanjing' magazine," Bai Bing quickly said, getting down to business.
Liu Jing was stunned for a moment, then stroked his chin. "Why is the withdrawal of investment so fast? That shouldn't be the case."
That's definitely not right!
Liu Jing's methods were effective; he covered a series of topics, both domestic and international.
Tell the companies that are filming these kinds of movies to go back and revise their scripts.
Everyone understands that if they go home and revise the script a bit, as long as it's not too outrageous, the filming permit will be issued.
After waiting for so many years, today has finally come. The other party has no reason to withdraw its investment.
"A reporter interviewed your school and brought up your issues. Your principal said, 'You love your country, I love my country, but none of us love it as purely as our students. Since ancient times, they have always been on the front lines. They cannot tolerate falsehood, compromise, or injustice. Whether a film is good or bad is a matter of skill. Whether a film is made at all is a matter of awareness. Skill can be improved if it's lacking. A lack of awareness cannot be remedied. I am proud that our school has such students. This is an honor for our school and for our industry.'" Bai Bing's eyes were gentle and alluring, her large, bright eyes seeming to bewitch people.
"This... I feel unworthy of it." Liu Jing suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"I feel I have nothing to be ashamed of," Bai Bing defended herself. If she weren't truly insecure, she would have loved to take the initiative.
"That's not a reason for them to withdraw their investment, is it?" Liu Jing was still puzzled.
"There's pressure from multiple sides, especially from public opinion. Huayi Brothers is about to release the complete script, so there's no point in continuing to film this," Bai Bing explained.
"Shouldn't this be a good thing? Why are you saying it's bad?" Liu Jing was completely confused.
"Orange Sky is interested in taking over those withdrawn investments, and as soon as the news spread, the stock price rose." Bai Bing's expression was strange.
"Damn it!" Liu Jing slammed his hand on the table, furious.
As news of his filming spread, all sorts of people came knocking on his door, and he received strange text messages and random emails every day.
Some people want to play roles, some want to invest, and some want to collaborate.
Some people even said that if you filmed according to their script, you would make a lot of money.
Some people even criticized him, saying that his film was... well, you know.
There were also threats and intimidation...
These people are very resourceful; they even have script outlines.
He was especially subjected to a barrage of threats and inducements from the right-wing Japanese faction.
He now has a preliminary understanding that Iris Chang faced considerable pressure back then.
No matter how many times you watch the news or hear the stories, nothing beats experiencing it firsthand.
"Ahem, President Han contacted President Min and asked the three of us to sit down together and stop fighting amongst ourselves," Bai Bing continued.
"Fine! I'll give him face. Director Erzi is currently building a 500-acre Nanjing city. Let me use it first." Liu Jing sneered.
He knew very well what kind of background Orange Sky had, and strongly suspected that it was someone behind Lao Wu who had made the move.
"This is a bit unfair." Bai Bing swallowed hard. Someone else's new wife, you go to sleep first, isn't this unfair?
“We won’t use it for free; we’ll pay rent.” Liu Jing smiled.
"Boss, we still have to pay?" Bai Bing felt a pang of heartache. It was the company's money being spent, but ultimately it was still the boss's money.
"250 yuan, that's the most I can offer."
