From collapsed house idol to entertainment superstar

"Thank you, Uncle Gong!"

Wang Zhihai seemed to be nodding and bowing in front of a skinny old man.

I saw this skinny old man with a strange appearance, and even when he was indoors, he still had a duck-billed hat on his head.

If you look carefully, it is not difficult to see that a large part of this strange old man's face has white patches, which are obvious symptoms of vitiligo, making his already not good-looking appearance even more weird.

Facing Wang Zhihai's respectful expression, the old man did not show any expression. He raised his legs and swayed slightly. He reached for a cigarette, lit it, took a deep breath, narrowed his eyes beautifully, opened his mouth and slowly exhaled.

In the thick smoke, the old man's squinting eyes suddenly appeared.

"If you're angry, I'll help you get rid of it. At times like this, just do what you have to do, and don't get hung up on these motivated things in the future."

After Gong Dapao took another puff of cigarette, he grinned, showing his trademark rotten teeth and said.

"Yeah! Zhihai understands!"

Wang Zhihai and others responded with smiles.

But deep down, I disagreed.

That's it?

Those damn two bad men and women, Ding Zhi and Yang Fu, caused him to be kicked out of the house and suffered heavy losses in terms of shares and capital. If he didn't take revenge, how could he still be called a gentleman in Kyoto?

This is not just a matter of losing his face on Weibo like this!

But today is different from the past. In the past, he was one of the major shareholders of Huansong, and Ding Zhi was just a small artist of Huansong.

But now that he has been kicked out of the house with much praise, not many of the so-called relationships left behind by his father can be put to use.

It's just like this when people leave. What's more, Wang Zhihai has lost a lot of his wealth by selling his father's land without feeling sorry, so no one cares about him.

Gong Dapao would vent his anger on him because Wang Zhihai is actually one of the investors in his new film "Only God Knows".

You know, Gong Dapao was almost tied to Huayi Media before.

Speaking of Huayi, it was a huge company, at least in the past ten years. At that time, it would be an exaggeration to say that the artists cultivated by Huayi accounted for half of the entire entertainment industry at that time.

And Gong Dapao was one of the "troika" of the big ship Huayi at that time.

Nowadays, Huayi has long been in decline. In the past few years, "The Eight Hundred" has grossed more than 3 billion at the box office, which can be regarded as a blood regeneration for this once giant.

But the situation is still not optimistic.

As a result, after Gong Dapao released his new film, investment difficulties suddenly arose.

Among them, the "Green Lantern Club" within Huayi clearly has no confidence in this film, which is undoubtedly a naked slap in the face.

You must know that there was a time when his name, Gong Dapao, was the guarantee of the box office!

For this reason, Wang Zhihai appeared, made up the difference in investment funds for "Only God Knows", and became one of its co-producers, allowing the entire project to proceed smoothly.

And Wang Zhihai also joined Gong Dapao's line.

Otherwise, do you really think that Gong Dapao, who is over 60 years old, still wants to help Bo Yuntian to seek justice for his nephew?

A few years ago, he created a literary film that grossed 1.4 billion at the box office, so he was naturally very satisfied.

When it comes to commercial films, Lao Gong is no weaker than anyone else. He is engaged in literature and art, and he can still make money now!

You must know that since the end of the last century, he and Huayi have complemented each other for so many years. It is not an exaggeration to say that they have both prospered and suffered losses. They have spent the most prosperous ten years of Huayi and Gong Dapao together.

This decade was also the honeymoon period for Gong Dapao and the giant Huayi Media.

Until five years ago, Gong Dapao founded his own company Dongyang Media. At the same time, Huayi Media acquired 70% of its shares for 1.05 billion in cash. This resulted in a long-term dispute between Huayi and Gong Dapao.

Five-year gambling agreement.

The content of the gambling agreement is very simple.

The betting period is 5 years, and Dongyang is required to commit to a performance target of no less than 100 million yuan in after-tax net profit in the following year.

Thereafter, the performance target for each year will increase by 15% on the basis of the previous year, that is, net profits of 100 million yuan, 115 million yuan, 132 million yuan, 152 million yuan and 174.9 million yuan will be achieved respectively, with a total of 674 million yuan in 5 years.

.

If the goal cannot be achieved, Gong Dapao needs to make up the difference in cash.

In the past few years, Gong Dapao has fulfilled these requirements perfectly.

This year, his new work "Only God Knows" had a bad start.

There was a big problem with the early investment. Huayi, which was heavily in debt, was obviously not optimistic about the film, and had to recruit "retail investors" like Wang Zhihai to prepare the investment for the filming.

Even now, when it is about to be released, after the movie screenings in major theaters, the film scheduling rate is only less than 10%.

It can even be said that when the major relevant media mention this Spring Festival release, they still rank the movie "Only God Knows" at the top of the list simply because this movie is the work of Gong Dapao.

Gong Dapao is naturally unwilling to admit defeat. According to what he said a few years ago, "the aesthetic level of today's audiences is rubbish."

So, touch porcelain Dingzhi, touch porcelain "The God of Medicine"...

No! It is as an old-timer’s criticism and guidance to the latecomers!

It was Wang Zhihai's suggestion, and Gong Dapao naturally accepted it happily.

The most obvious thing is that as Gong Cannon fired one after another, the popularity of the whole thing also soared.

It is not difficult for those who are interested to notice that Ding Zhi's "The God of Medicine" and Gong Dapao's "Only God Knows" are competing on the same stage!

Especially in the recent past of "The God of Medicine", with the popularity of "Life is Like a Summer Flower" and the reputation created by the screenings, it has become the top three in terms of attention during the Spring Festival.

In industry stock reviews, the only ones that can firmly hold down "The God of Medicine" are Xingye's "The King of Comedy 2" and Kaixin Maodou's "Funny Family".

This aspect is also very intuitively reflected in the film scheduling rates given by major theater chains.

After Gong Dapao sprayed Ding Zhi, the discussion index of the literary film "Only God Knows" also soared.

In the case of an extreme lack of publicity channels, Gong Dapao can basically make a profit this time!

As for public opinion, let’s not talk about traffic + cyber violence nowadays, which is almost the original sin that everyone calls for beating.

What's more, his blog post was deleted and deleted, which basically took the rhythm and attention away a lot.

Now, it is no longer time for Ding Zhi’s fans to fight against Gong Dapao.

To be precise, Gong Dapao changed his previous style of quarreling with netizens and became much more sophisticated.

After posting that blog post, I "shrunk" and quietly waited for the situation to ferment.

You know, as Ding Zhi's status becomes higher and higher, there are also more and more active or passive "enemies".

While he single-handedly gained the demands of the entire idol circle, his own existence left many people with a knot in their throats.

Nowadays, Gong Dapao is the cannon who takes the lead in the charge, and also has a highly inclined rhythm flag such as "Dingzhi dragon slayer will eventually become an evil dragon".

How can those groups who are secretly dissatisfied with Ding Zhi not keep up?

Now the rhythm is soaring

"Did the other party react?"

Gong Dapao was naturally asking Ding Zhi.

Wang Zhihai said hurriedly, "Uncle Gong, when you take action, how dare the other party make a sound? Don't they have to shrink down like an ostrich?"

Gong Dapao frowned and glanced at Wang Zhihai.

"How could you possibly defeat him? You suffered a loss once, and yet you still treat him with such contempt? Have you never studied him?"

Gong Dapao held the cigarette to his mouth, puffed it out, and blew a puff of smoke directly into Wang Zhihai's face.

Wang Zhihai's smile suddenly became awkward.

He frowned slightly, then relaxed his grip very quickly, took the ashtray next to the coffee table, and moved it to Gong Da's gunner's side.

"Uncle Gong, this..."

Gong Dapao held the cigarette and lightly knocked it on the edge of the ashtray.

"Ding Zhi is a courageous person who does things in an eclectic way. He will do anything to achieve his goals. He even resorts to violence. He is so arrogant that he does not look like a young man of your generation."

Gong Dapao's hoarse and unpleasant voice sounded simultaneously with the smoke he exhaled.

"It's not surprising that you are scared by me. If you say that Ding Zhi is scared, that's impossible!"

Gong Dapao's words were quite harsh.

Wang Zhihai felt uncomfortable for a while.

But after thinking about it again, it seems that it is indeed the case.

After being defeated by Ding Zhi and Yang Fu together, Wang Zhihai suffered a big loss, but it was not that he had made no progress.

First of all, he has studied all of Ding Zhi's past quite thoroughly in more than a year!

Dingzhi is as strong as fire.

Basically he doesn’t seek revenge overnight, because if he has a grudge, he usually takes revenge on the spot!

Whether it is relying on the "slander and plagiarism incident" encountered by Yu Zhenchao when "Peeping" first appeared.

Or maybe it was caused by the 18th-tier actress and the paparazzi to hype her up.

It was the time when Wang Zhihai and Liu Zhiyan made trouble together.

Without exception, Ding Zhi chose to be tough!

No matter whether the opponent is a powerful company executive like himself (Wang Zhihai's self-evaluation).

A senior paparazzi like Han Binjiang is as difficult to deal with as Niubi Tang, or a well-known gold medal screenwriter in the industry like Yu Zhenchao.

Without exception, the choices Ding Zhi made were all tough!

And with that terrifying recklessness, they all just won!

He even earned the title of "the evil person in the entertainment industry".

Then, faced with Gong Dapao's unreasonable abuse and slander.

Ding Zhi was both emotional and rational, so it was impossible not to respond!

The point is, Gong Dapao is not just a quarrel with Ding Zhi before. Both his qualifications and influence are extraordinary!

If Ding Zhi dares to stand up and refute, Brother Feifan...ah no, our Brother Cannon is not a vegetarian!

As the saying goes, those who are braver than me are not as brave as me, and those who are bigger than me are not as brave as me.

Do you think who has the qualifications and past achievements of Gong Dapao, and yet he personally steps on others?

Not to mention that Gong Dapao is unprecedented, he is also unprecedented.

...

...

While Gong Dapao and Wang Zhiyang are complacent, the turmoil caused by them on the Internet is still heating up.

In particular, Ding Zhi's fans felt aggrieved.

During the Chinese New Year, they originally didn't provoke anyone, so they were waiting for the official release of "The God of Medicine" to make a splash. However, they encountered a guy who disrespected the elderly and acted against them and bullied them directly.

——"Gong Dapao is really bullying people too much!"

——"If this fermentation continues, the reputation of "The God of Medicine" will be ruined! You know, it is only a few days away from release!"

——"The New Year celebrations are all over the place. I have to say that this rice circle culture is indeed permeated everywhere."

——"Jiuyao respond quickly! Don't give people the chance to rely on your old age! Just do it!"

——"Don't be impatient, the newcomers are still impatient, and the old fans are ready to applaud! Has Ding Zhi ever let us down? Don't take "the entertainment industry brings evil people" as fake!"

——"The problem is that it's too frustrating! Those rhythm makers and black men are so disgusting. They say that we refute them, but they are the cancer of the rice circle. If we don't refute them, they continue to spread rumors unscrupulously!"

——"Jiuyao come out and clarify quickly! Slap him back hard! Do you really think that you can rely on your seniority and past honors to rely on your old age? Let me tell you, we don't accept this!"

It has to be said that Ding Zhi's various past achievements have also given Ding Zhi's fan base great confidence.

There were times of waiting and frustration before, but every time something happened, Ding Zhi never let his fans charge on their own, nor did he shirk responsibility afterward by saying, "I don't like to use the word 'management' to my fans."

That kind of idol.

It can even be said that when Ding Zhi and his team encounter trouble, their own actions can often have the final say.

This effect is often very "cruel".

In this regard, sewing machine skilled workers Hua, Liu and Han, who did not want to be named, expressed deep condemnation.

Some people even joked that Ding Zhi's behavior of leading evil people is "idol behavior, don't rise to the level of a fan."

Their fans are very innocent.

So this time, in addition to Gong Dapao who was looking forward to Ding Zhi's response and then fell into their trap, many fan groups who support Ding Zhi, and even movie fans, are actually waiting for Ding Zhi's response.

Therefore, to a certain extent, Gong Dapao is indeed much more powerful than all Ding Zhi's previous enemies.

Because he doesn't play dirty tricks, he just plays gangster with you openly, relying on his seniority to play dirty tricks!

Finally, among thousands and thousands of others.

Ding Zhi’s official Weibo, which has not posted any updates for a long time, finally posted one.

@丁之himself: "Congratulations to "The God of Medicine" for exceeding 200 million at the box office! Pre-sale box office exceeded 146 million! [Picture] [Picture] [Picture]

Then underneath, there are two well-made posters and a pre-sale box office ranking.

One of them has a white background, and is scattered with a few conspicuously colored pills, forming an Arabic numeral "2", followed by the word "100 million".

The design is exquisite and has a sense of atmosphere.

Then the second poster is a family portrait poster of the "Medicine God" team, everyone is smiling and grinning, with the word "100 million" written in the center.

The third picture seems a bit abrupt.

Obviously this is the pre-sale box office ranking for this Spring Festival period so far.

The first place on the list is Star Lord's "The King of Comedy 2", which topped the list with 218 million.

Immediately behind is "The God of Medicine" with 146 million, and the third is the very tight "Funny Family" with 123 million.

The following are movies that basically failed to break the 100 million mark.

As soon as this Weibo came out, many people were confused.

People have been bullied, and everyone is waiting for your response! But you still leisurely sent a celebratory Weibo?

However, some thoughtful people have noticed that the third screenshot of the pre-sale box office rankings is surprisingly impressive, almost including all the movies in the Spring Festival.

At the end of the picture, there is the pre-sale result of "Only God Knows", clearly written: "7.46 million."
