Huayu Entertainment: You have been directing for three generations, are you comparing your qualifica

The scripts for "Nanjing Photo Studio" and "The Witch" have passed censorship, prompting the Japanese embassy to intervene.

Issue safety warnings, urging people to be vigilant about personal safety and refusing to visit historical sites that are over-interpreted.

They shamelessly claimed that filming about Nanjing and exposing the brutality of the Japanese army would damage the island nation's international image.

The island nation was terrified of revealing this history, and even their Ministry of Foreign Affairs was alarmed, submitting 23 diplomatic notes within 24 hours in conjunction with their embassy.

The demands for "The Witch" and "Nanjing Photo Studio" to stop filming and accept content censorship are unreasonable.

At a regular press conference, a Japanese reporter asked about this matter.

The spokesperson glanced at the other party dismissively and said in a stern tone:
"We urge Japan to face up to history, acknowledge its war crimes, and refrain from obstructing the filming of such historical content..."

Less than an hour after the press conference ended, official media outlets such as the "Daily News," "Capital Daily," and "Youth Daily" issued statements in support.

Those who try to cover up or erase their sins will eventually be brought to justice.

"..."

Seeing that the boycott was hopeless, the island nation listed Tian Xiaole as the most unwelcome foreigner and refused him entry into the island nation.

·······
"Xiao Le, you really did a fantastic job this time. I'm giving you a special shout-out."

"Haha, this is a trivial matter, and all Chinese people should remember it."

Tian Xiaole said with a smile, "I remember when we were filming [Nanjing], Xiao Rizi didn't react at all, right?"

These words left Han Sanping speechless.

The script written by Rikutaro whitewashed the invasion of our family. We were overjoyed, and almost wanted Rikutaro back into the family genealogy.

Han Sanping's decision to invest in this film is about to become his biggest stain; he hates Lu Taro, that little devil.

He changed the subject, saying, "Do we need to coordinate the location for the film's project launch event?"

"The CPPCC (Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference) is a big place."

·······
At this moment, all the actors and celebrities in the industry are staring at the audition notices from [Nanjing Photo Studio].

This drama has been praised by the authorities, and if you get a role in it, the exposure you'll get will be incomparable to that of a regular drama.

Moreover, it was Tian Xiaole who personally provided guidance.

Jing Tian was a little depressed. She was the female lead in "The Witch," but she would prefer to star in "The Photo Studio," directed by Tian Xiaole.

"Tian Tian, ​​don't be ungrateful. There are so many people out there who want this role for you."

"Uncle Lu, I know, I'm just a little disappointed."

Lu Zhen smiled and instructed, "Study the script carefully. Director Guo Fan is also very capable."

On June 4th, the weather was fine.

The project initiation meetings for "Nanjing Photo Studio" and "The Witch" were held in the CPPCC Auditorium.

More than 30 news media outlets were invited, but over 100 media outlets actually attended.

Two movies... forget it, let's not even talk about them.

The whole internet knows about the whole affair just because these two dramas got approved. Nothing involving Tian Xiaole is ever simple.

[Nanjing Photo Studio] The budget is 1 million yuan, and there is a possibility of further increases later. There are as many as 17 investors.

Xiaole Pictures, China Film Group, Wanda Pictures, Enlight Media, Yinghuang Pictures, Shanghai Film Group, Ningbo Film Group, Xi'an Film Group... Huayi Brothers, Poly Huayi Brothers, Changhong Pictures, Edko Films...
Most of the well-known film production companies in Chinese-language cinema are listed here, covering mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.

Everyone knows why this production was made with such a large scale.

Some people didn't want this kind of subject matter to pass censorship, but Tian Xiaole was determined to do the opposite and make sure everyone knew.

That's why we have such a large-scale operation today.

This project has even received special praise from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs; no other film has received this treatment.

Some of the media present noticed that Xiaole Pictures has been quite aggressive this year.
Including the upcoming "Beijing Love Story," many people were shocked and gasped.

Xiaole Pictures has at least seven movies or TV series to be released this year.

Backstage, representatives from the investors all came to sign the papers. For example, the top executives of state-owned enterprises like Xi'an Film Studio and Ningbo Film Studio came over.

"Mr. Yang, Chang Le Pictures has secured a 10% stake, the largest among all investors. Don't let me down."

Tian Xiaole patted Yang Kuideng on the shoulder and said earnestly.

This movie is sure to make money; his own director and screenwriter fees, after deducting the five million share, are practically a steal.

If you let them take more, they will be more motivated to do things well.

"Boss, it's time."

Tian Xiaole glanced at his wristwatch and addressed the representatives waiting in the lounge:

"Let's go, let's witness this moment together."

"Director Tian, ​​please go first."

The people from Xiying gestured, completely ignoring the glaring and snarling Old Han.

"Chairman Han and Director Tian, ​​please go first."

With someone offering a way out, Han Sanping's expression softened. Not wanting to steal Tian Xiaole's thunder, he gestured for Tian Xiaole to go first.

"Haha, then I'm not welcome."

Director Tian took the lead, followed by more than a dozen investors, any one of whom would be a big name in the film industry.

The moment they stepped into the venue, the media's cameras and microphones started clicking away, recording this historic moment.

The fact that a single production could bring together so many influential companies is big news in itself. Once the group was seated on stage, the media cameras finally quieted down.

Chen Zhixi temporarily took on the role of host:
"I am delighted that all of you journalists are here to witness the project launch meeting for 'The Witch' and 'Nanjing Photo Studio'..."

Next is the signing ceremony for the investors of the [Nanjing Photo Studio].

As soon as he finished speaking, the staff placed a copy of the contract on the table. The more than ten investors looked at each other, smiled, and signed their names.

The actual contract was signed yesterday.

Puff puff~

Puff puff~

The media's cameras captured this moment.

The project "The Witch" was rejected by everyone; it was exclusively produced by Xiaole Pictures.

Question and answer session for reporters.

The reporter from the south was stubborn and asked with ill intent:

"Director Tian, ​​the scripts for these two films have caused such a stir, practically everyone knows about them. Is there any suspicion of hype involved?"

As soon as the voice fell, the audience was in an uproar.

Then I gave him a thumbs up. This guy is really something, he actually dared to openly question me.

The media were extremely excited, pointing their cameras and microphones at the podium, waiting for Tian Xiaole's response.

Start criticizing, start criticizing now!

Whether this month's news targets can be met depends on Tian Xiaole's statement.

In the past few days, Director Tin has just criticized the censorship committee. Several big directors in Hong Kong, as well as the entire internet and the entire industry, have witnessed Tin Siu-lok's influence.

At this point, the only domestic media outlet that dared to challenge him was probably the Southern Metropolis Daily.

He often touts himself as "fair and outspoken" and "a pioneer in literature and art."

In reality, it was just Tian Xiaole who robbed them.

The "New Four Little Actresses" election held by Weibo directly undermined their authority and cut off their traffic.

So they turned evil.

Since last year, paparazzi have been following Tian Xiaole for a long time, trying to dig up dirt on him.

The bodyguards spotted him several times, but they couldn't get any photos taken. After giving him a warning, they let him go.

From then on, they became Tian Xiaole's professional black media.

At first, he tried his best to play the role of an objective evaluator who "discusses the matter objectively" and often criticized the projects produced by Xiaole Pictures.

Now they don't even bother with acting anymore, they just go all out, and the reason is very simple.

Black and red are also red!
The more they criticized Tian Xiaole, the more their newspaper sales soared.

Tian Xiaole has achieved such success at a young age, and is known as the "Mountain Eagle" in the entertainment industry. He is arrogant and domineering, and his high-profile behavior has gained him a large number of fans, but it has also attracted a large number of haters.

Because human nature is unpredictable, while Tian Xiaole brought glory to the country and illuminated the direction of Chinese cinema, there are always some people walking in the shadows who occasionally come out to shout and rage in a helpless and furious manner.

According to the theory that one fan can be as effective as ten haters, how many haters does Director Tian have?
Therefore, opposing Tian Xiaole will win over both haters and fans who support her.

Newspaper sales increased daily, and its reputation became more authoritative than ever before.

Amidst the admiring glances of his colleagues, the reporter from "Metropolitan Daily" puffed out his chest, confident that "Metropolitan Daily" would do what others dared not question.

The people on the stage had gloomy faces, especially the several state-owned enterprises that were struggling to make ends meet and were counting on this small share to make a profit.

Han Sanping looked displeased. Bringing up the script was a slap in the face to their film system.

Tian Xiaole raised her hand and pressed down on Han Sanping's arm, pulled over the seated microphone, and spoke easily under everyone's gaze:
"According to this reporter, I can get the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to cooperate in hyping this up, right?"

Good guy.

One sentence can kill a game.

The reporter's expression kept changing, as if he had forgotten about this matter.

Under everyone's gaze, he could only bite the bullet and answer, "No, I didn't say that."

"Oh, so where does this hype come from?"

Tian Xiaole spread his hands, smiled at the reporter, and looked at him with a hint of sarcasm on his face.

Then, he slammed his hand on the table and demanded:
"I just made a film about Nanjing, and I've offended so many people? Even Southern Metropolis Daily is against it?"

Inside the not-so-hot venue, one reporter was so frightened that he was sweating profusely and his face was flushed.

The reporters in the audience moved away from him, afraid of getting involved in anything.

In the silence, only the resounding voices of the two Golden Horse Award-winning Chinese directors echoed:

"I hope the Metropolitan Daily will clearly state its position, and I want to see positive coverage of the Nanjing Photo Studio."

Bring me back my entire request, word for word. Can you do that?

The scene was completely silent, with some people wearing smiles of anticipation and others gloating.

They all looked at the reporter from the "Metropolitan Daily" without prior arrangement.

The reporter wiped the sweat from his face and nodded vigorously in response. (End of Chapter)
