Chapter 587 Supervision (13)

Well, it's not impossible!
For a while, Wang Sicong really thought of himself as the entertainment industry's watchdog...

Publicly criticizing Lu Han and Liu Yifei!

The key point is that these two people didn't provoke him at all, nor did they do anything to annoy the public...

Lu Han, although he is a top celebrity and has a delicate appearance, is actually quite tough.

As for Liu Yifei…

Although Liu Yifei acted in many bad movies during those years, she remained low-key and didn't appear on variety shows or reality shows...

Wang Sicong's criticisms of these things probably make him think he's the entertainment industry's watchdog...

However, Wang Sicong did praise Shen Yan on Weibo, but it wasn't really praise. He commented on Chinese films, saying, "Duckweed and Fame are both decent films, but The Grandmaster is too pretentious..."

Shen Yan ignored him from beginning to end.

Wang Sicong is a rich second-generation...

The praise people give him is all based on his wealth…

He's never been a good person, ever since he started slutting Zhang Xinyu and Fan Xiaopang...

While it's true that the entertainment industry isn't clean, he himself isn't exactly clean either; he's a total hypocrite.

Why doesn't he scold Yang Tianbao?
Because Yang Tianbao promoted his live stream, he even attended someone's wedding and served as a groomsman...

To put it another way, if a man sleeps around with young models every day, has an illegitimate child, and posts insulting remarks about women online, a lot of people would probably call him a scumbag with low morals...

But it wouldn't be the case if it were Wang Sicong!

Instead, they praised him for his genuine personality…

Is he handsome?

It's so nice to be rich; they're rude, swear all the time, but it's actually their true nature...

Wang Kai also found this interview and asked Shen Yan, "Brother Chao said you predicted that 'The Magic Hour' would break 800 million at the box office?"

"Almost there, let's see if we can surpass 600 million in the first ten days..."

"Transformers 4 was really bad..."

"The main problem is that Michael Bay was too perfunctory. Look at this movie, the product placement is too blatant, they just throw it in like that... What does that tell you?"

What does that mean?

"This shows that Michael Bay didn't even bother to think about how to make the commercials blend in seamlessly and not disrupt the viewing experience; he simply doesn't care about the movie!"

……

In fact, after filming "Transformers 3", Michael Bay felt he was free, so he issued a statement saying he would no longer direct "Transformers 4", and then took the money to make a movie called "The Men Who Make Money".

This movie had a budget of $2600 million and grossed $8500 million worldwide…

Actually, we've recouped our costs!

But Michael Bay's first film, *Bad Boys*, grossed over $100 million in North America and $140 million worldwide…

Even the box office flop "The Island" still grossed $1.6 million worldwide...

For him, "The Bodybuilders" was a box office failure...

There was no other way but to come back and continue directing "Transformers 4".

It's worth noting that when Michael Bay directed the first Transformers movie, he explicitly stated that he disliked mechanical dinosaurs and wouldn't include them. However, in the fourth movie, mechanical dinosaurs actually appeared.

It's clear that Michael Bay has long since adopted an attitude of not caring about anything; whatever comes along, he'll do as it pleases, he can't be bothered with it.

The fifth installment likely reflects Hasbro's desire to add more toy characters, specifically mentioning Quintessa (the Quintesson), the goddess who created Optimus Prime, and Unicron's appearance...

Then, he just made up a whole story! I really don't understand what Michael Bay was thinking...

You didn't want to direct the Transformers series, then you directed the Netflix action film Six Underground, starring Ryan Reynolds, and got all sorts of criticism...

He then directed "Ambulance," a remake of the 2005 Danish film...

The box office results were a complete disaster!
The crucial point is that even their best-in-class wide-angle lenses are gone…

However, Transformers 4 still performed very well at the box office.

……

Filming of "Burning" is underway...

Ji Xiang made a phone call and told him that the higher-ups were preparing to issue a notice to ban certain celebrities with bad records!
"Well, I see!"

"Do you think this is a good thing?"

"I think it's a good thing. Celebrities have a certain level of credibility, they are public figures, and they have a wide-ranging influence. If they act lawlessly, they should of course be punished!"

"But people in the industry think this is going too far..."

"Where did you go too far? Public judgment? It's all about a few people manipulating public opinion. A PR team can turn an event from black to white. As for the media... which media outlet doesn't have a sugar daddy behind it? The media can hype up topics in a minute, their voice is much louder than the public's, and they can whitewash anything with a little money..."

"Right."

"You shouldn't get involved in this."

Shen Yan waved his hand, about to hang up the phone, when Ji Xiang said again, "Be careful, don't let someone expose you!"

"What am I supposed to be careful about?" Shen Yan was a little speechless. "I'm fine..."

"I mean I was set up!"

“I’m on set every day, and I’m too lazy to attend dinners or drinking parties…and I’ve also recently given up drinking.”

"That's good," Ji Xiang said, adding a word of caution: "Just don't drink alcohol casually!"

Shen Yan nodded: "I understand!"

Setting up a scheme...

He invites you out to discuss a project, you refuse, then he tampers with your food and drinks, knocks you unconscious, bribes your driver to take you directly to a hotel, arranges for a prostitute… the rest is just a matter of notifying the police…

That's how Huang Haibo was ruined!
……

Actually, at the beginning of the century, celebrities were very arrogant.

The entertainment industry is different from other industries; it really allows you to deal with a lot of government officials…

When those Hong Kong and Taiwanese stars first came to the mainland, they were received by many high-ranking government officials.

They naturally consider themselves to be from the upper class!
They are nobles!
So, there was a lot of discussion about the nobility during that period…

Human desires are too easily inflated…

These celebrities are being overhyped...

what?
Media oversight and spontaneous public boycott?
Ha ha…

Seventy media outlets attended the press conference, and then... a bunch of production companies approached him to film new movies—with a salary as high as 50 per episode!
You should know that before this incident, he hadn't played a significant role in a long time and was almost forgotten by the entertainment industry...

Instead, it turned popular?

...

This one is even more outrageous!
...

And then, damn it, "Dragon Gate Inn" is never coming back!
So how can we expect the media and film companies to boycott on their own?
