This celebrity is overly enthusiastic!

Chapter 124 Don't Mess with That Madman
The incident caused quite a stir at the time, and the feud between Cui Yongyuan and Feng Xiaogang was thoroughly investigated by various media outlets.

The matter was simple: Feng Xiaogang and screenwriter Liu Zhenyun wanted to film "Cellphone" and wanted to understand the work process and rhythm of CCTV hosts, so they consulted Xiao Cui.

At the time, Xiao Cui and Feng Kuzi were good friends, so Xiao Cui enthusiastically introduced some details of his work.

As a result, the movie "Cellphone" was made and released, in which the male lead Yan Shouyi had an extramarital affair with a female host Wu Yue.

Any normal person who sees the character Yan Shouyi will immediately associate him with Xiao Cui.

Xiao Cui's reputation was severely damaged, and he was furious, demanding an apology. However, Feng Xiaogang only said that he "wanted to play a joke on Xiao Cui."
Xiao Cui didn't accept this 'joke,' which almost drove him crazy, as he was already suffering from severe depression.

After waiting for fifteen years, when they heard that Feng Xiaogang was going to make "Cellphone 2", they told him not to make it.

But Feng Xiaogang, who was at the height of his career and the top commercial director at the time, still wanted to make the film, and Fan Binbin even jumped out and posted on Weibo, "May was very happy!"
Having reached his limit, Cui Yongyuan dropped a bombshell in the entertainment industry, directly killing Fan Binbin, who was the first to speak out, and also triggering a wave of tax evasion in the industry.

Chen Yuan thought and thought but still couldn't understand why Feng Kuzi had done this to Cui Yongyuan. All Cui Yongyuan asked for was an apology, but Feng refused, and ended up in such a mess.

Is it possible for Yan Shouyi to have an extramarital affair with Wu Yue?
That's very possible. So what if it's the largest television station? It's just a company, a unit. The same petty, trivial matters that happen in ordinary companies still occur here.

Because of the nature of their work, they have a lot of beautiful and handsome hosts, and the troubles they encounter are no less than those in other organizations.

Cui Yongyuan is one of CCTV's most famous hosts. His show, "Tell It Like It Is," is CCTV's flagship talk show and has ushered in a new era for Chinese television talk shows.

The documentary "Cell Phone" slapped Cui Yongyuan in the face, which is tantamount to smearing CCTV.
Would a state-run media outlet tolerate such disgusting behavior?

Chen Yuan came up with a dirty trick that could cripple Huayi.

The movie "Cellphone" hasn't even started filming yet. If you report it directly, they can just revise the script and everything will be fine.

We should wait until Feng Xiaogang finishes filming "Cellphone," has invested all the promotional resources, and is about to be released before making a move to maximize the damage!

Wang Zhongjun shivered suddenly, feeling a cold wind blow across the back of his neck.

As I got up to turn up the office air conditioning, I noticed my younger brother typing away on a laptop.

His expression was focused and serious, and I initially thought he was doing some kind of work. But upon closer inspection, I realized he was arguing with Chen Yuan's fans on a forum.

She slapped her good-for-nothing brother on the head. "Are you bored out of your mind? If you're so idle, why don't you go check the accounts? It's almost New Year's Day."

"Brother, I'm just so angry. It's all that kid's fault. He caused our cooperation with Columbia to shrink so much, and the subsequent film investment is basically gone. What's wrong with me cursing him to vent my anger?"

He glanced at his good-for-nothing younger brother, who only knew how to sleep with female celebrities, and said coldly:

"What difference will it make if you insult him? Stop your petty tricks, it's just a waste of money. A little gossip and dirt won't shake him in the slightest."

Chen Yuan is different from ordinary celebrities; he can still wield immense influence without relying on reputation or fame! Wang Zhonglei said with unwavering conviction:

"If that's the case, then why is he so diligent in hiding from paparazzi? He's been in the industry for so many years and hasn't had any useful scandals. There must be something going on here!"

"You're really meddling in other people's business! Let me tell you, Chen Yuan has already gained momentum, you know? He's taking his collaboration with Columbia Pictures on sci-fi films very, very seriously!"
The China Film Digital Base in Huairou has already started renovation. Do you know how many billions of yuan the ministries are going to invest in this project?

To smear and spread rumors about Chen Yuan now is simply making things difficult for oneself.

Furious and frustrated, Wang Zhonglei slammed the laptop lid shut and said angrily, "What are we going to do? Does that mean Chen Yuan is invincible?"

Wang Zhonglei took a deep breath. To be honest, with the metaverse developing so rapidly, it was impossible for people in the industry not to have studied him. And then they despairingly discovered that this kid really had no weaknesses.
In just three years, he went from an unknown nobody to a national idol, all thanks to his repeated high-stakes gambles, all of which he won.

Any normal person, given Chen Yuan's legacy, would choose to take a steady and pragmatic approach, and becoming a big shot in the entertainment industry would be no problem.

But Chen Yuan really doesn't follow the usual path. It's unclear whether he's just highly skilled and daring, or simply a crazy gambler.

He staked his formidable reputation in China on collaborating with Sony.

In the event of failure, while it wouldn't completely destroy him, it would certainly deal a heavy blow to the development momentum of the metaverse.
The companies that are currently fervently chasing after him and trying every means to send him money for sponsorship and advertising will definitely become hesitant and start bargaining.

Collaborating with Columbia Pictures is not something that Chen Yuan can simply order the crew to do at will in China.
With a massive $7000 million production team, and a Sino-US collaboration, is Chen Yuan confident he can make things go smoothly?
It seemed like he was comforting himself, or perhaps he genuinely believed that Chen Yuan would eventually destroy himself.

Wang Zhongjun lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and said menacingly through the swirling smoke:
"Chen Yuan is a madman. Don't mess with him. He'll get into big trouble sooner or later because of his radical way of doing things."
No matter how skilled a gambler is, they will eventually lose everything!
-
Having already noted Huayi down in his little notebook, Chen Yuan realized that, aside from the trolls stirring up trouble, his reputation had indeed declined compared to when Pan Hong, the young hero, was all the rage across the country.

The Chinese people generally dislike his radical way of doing things.

He partnered with Sony and co-produced a big-budget science fiction film with Columbia Pictures, despite having already achieved considerable success domestically.
But many people are not optimistic that he can achieve success overseas at such a young age.

Chen Yuan knew that saying more would be pointless, so he could only use facts to shut these people up.

Despite the phenomenal box office success of "Hero" (《英雄》) which grossed 1.3 million RMB in ten days and still has significant potential, a barrage of online criticism and mockery has emerged.

Many people were dissatisfied with Chen Yuan's animated film, which clearly capitalized on the Olympic Games to become the top-grossing film in China. They felt that Chen Yuan was unworthy of the title and believed that animated films should not be regarded as serious movies.

But with box office receipts exceeding 100 million yuan, it does seem to have a positive effect on spreading Chinese culture.

The overseas box office is an even more staggering figure of over two billion, and they even received an Oscar nomination. If you're not happy about it, you can only swallow your pride.

Now, Old Mouzi has decisively and honorably crushed Chen Yuan with the air of a king.

Naturally, this prompted many people who disliked Chen Yuan's rough and unrefined nature to openly stand up and criticize him!
