From collapsed house idol to entertainment superstar

What kind of artist is Ding Zhi now?

He has risen rapidly to this day. In the eyes of some people, such as Zhao Xiaodi and Tan Zichen, who have benefited from him indirectly or directly, Ding Zhi is already a big boss in the industry.

Not to mention that he has made almost every movie that is a hit. Even now that he has started to direct movies across industries, the first-day box office results show that he is already a hit and is a favorite to win the box office championship of the season.

Even competing streaming platforms seem to be able to have both sides.

This is on a business level.

More importantly, as Ding Zhi rises over the years, many things that happened to him will be analyzed and read.

There are rumors that he has a rich background and has destroyed several people in the industry. Others say that he has complicated relationships and has deep friendships with both the Beijing and Hong Kong circles. Most importantly, it is said that he also has people in the circle.

The entertainment industry is a place where you can't hide things.

For example, "The God of Medicine" almost failed to be approved before and then was quickly awarded a bid. Naturally, it cannot escape the investigation of interested people. As a result, rumors naturally spread everywhere.

Some of them do exist, and many more are spread by rumors.

Anyway, if nothing else, it is indeed quite bluffing.

After all, in the eyes of many people, compared to believing that Ding Zhi relied on unspeakable luck and strength to get where he is today, they would rather believe that Ding Zhi is a man with strong connections and special abilities that ordinary people cannot have.

With the resources and capital, it has been able to rise to this day in just a few years.

Because this is in line with their understanding of "common sense" and their sense of identity with this vanity fair rule.

However, no matter what other people think, it cannot affect the fact that Ding Zhi has indeed built Jiuyao Media into a new media that no one can ignore in just one year.

fortress.

It has complete content output, has representative works, has good cooperative relations with major platforms and publishers, and has a group of artists who can carry the work.

Nowadays, "The God of Medicine" comes out of nowhere. If nothing else happens, its initial score of 9.0 will definitely make it a movie that will be recorded in film history.

This just fills in the last shortcoming of Jiuyao Media in the eyes of many people, and it is a masterpiece that can stand up.

Any small circle will actually become more and more hierarchical.

Just like in the entertainment industry, everyone is promoting and grabbing traffic, but in fact, the status of the artists who are the carriers of traffic is actually still at the bottom of the upper-class circles.

Well, it is usually used as a money printing machine.

Even many times, when some "inappropriate" public opinions spread to some weaklings that grandpa cares about, those top-notch people who seem to be in a good position, and the first-line niches who are praised by the stars, often just throw them out to block the gun, and use them to block the gun.

To attract public opinion.

Hey, you said you are clean?

No smoking or drinking, no promiscuity, no multiple people, and no cheating?

That financial aspect...

What? No gold coins were stolen or leaked?

That's okay, you should always accept the advertisement!

Hey hey hey...

Anyway, that's it. In the eyes of some people, actors are just actors and chamber pots. Use them when you bring them and throw them away after use. This has been a universal rule throughout the ages.

At this time, Ding Zhi finally stepped out of the category of being a chamber pot and truly entered the eyes of many people.

In layman's terms, it means that you have reached the level of strength and are qualified.

Gong Dapao's unprovoked provocation was regarded by a group of people in the circle as Ding Zhi's first step in establishing his authority.

...

...

The first week of the Spring Festival is over.

As expected, "The God of Medicine" won the box office championship in its first week with a score of 1.264 billion. It is also the only movie in this period to have a box office of more than 1 billion in its first week.

But "The King of Comedy 2", a movie that had high hopes at the beginning, showed the same crotch stretch as Gong Dapao.

The box office in the first week was only a pitiful 378 million, which was even lower than the 417 million of "The Wall of Fame".

After taking in 200 million at the box office on the first day, the number of new additions dropped off a cliff in the following days, with an average daily revenue of only tens of millions. It can be said that it exited the championship game early.

And this is also the most disappointing box office performance for Xingye in many years. Many people are even joking that "all the movie tickets owed have been paid off."

On the contrary, "Funny Family" produced by Kaixin Maodou has remained as strong as ever. The box office even declined in the following days. The box office in the first week reached 658 million, which is the only one that has the chance to threaten "Funny Family".

"The God of Medicine" movie, of course, just because there is a chance doesn't mean the chance is high.

Before the film was released, there were no fights between gods and gods that many people expected.

Only "The God of Medicine" stands out.

This situation is beyond everyone's expectation.

Including those who had previously ridiculed Ding Zhi for overestimating his own abilities and actually daring to say that he would bet on a guaranteed 3 billion yuan bet, they all felt as if they had eaten flies.

It took in 1.2 billion at the box office in the first week, breaking the domestic first-week box office record. Now let alone 3 billion, let’s just say that this film can break through 4 billion, threatening Guoshi’s “Armageddon”, which has the highest domestic box office in the history of movies.

》, it doesn’t seem impossible.

Of course, in addition to this eye-catching result, there is another thing that has attracted the attention of many people.

That is, not long after the first week's box office was released, Ding Zhi posted the same Weibo post as on the day of the release.

A word of congratulations to "The God of Medicine" for winning the weekly championship.

A poster celebrating the box office of "The God of Medicine" exceeding 1.2 billion in its first week, setting a record in film history.

Another screenshot shows the 1.264 billion box office of "The God of Medicine", and the line below is the 117 million box office of "Only God Knows".

Simple and clear.

People who love to watch the excitement on the Internet immediately went crazy.

Good guy!

This time Ding Zhi didn't even take the second or third place, and directly compared the two movies together, which was equivalent to another slap in the face.

Without saying a word, it was even more powerful than just spraying.

This kind of speech is different from the kind of speech that is clearly a team operation and full of public relations flavor. They love to watch this kind of naked and unsubtle direct attack.

——"Hahaha, that's so cool! Ding Zhi is worthy of being the legendary leading actor in the entertainment industry! I'm willing to give him full marks for this slap in the face!"

——"Hey! Do you think Gong Dapao is cowardly? Why haven't you come out to talk back yet?"

——"Ding Zhi is too aggressive in pursuing him. If nothing else, Director Gong is at least a veteran in the industry. Isn't this too much?"

——"Hey! This Weibo is really weird sometimes! There are saints who are kind to others everywhere. Gong Dapao was allowed to ridicule and bully others during the publicity period, but now he doesn't allow others to crush him with his grades.

Is he such a double standard? Gong Dapao is your father???"

——"Is this the quality of Ding Zhifen?"

——"Let's make a noise, Der! I want to watch the show now! When will Gong Dapao respond? Hurry up and start working! Don't turn off Gong Dapao!"

In an instant, people were quarreling, arguing, and enjoying themselves, and the Internet was plunged into a carnival.

At this time, Gong Dapao, who had been anticipated by many good people online for a whole week, finally updated his status.

@gongdapao: "I felt that the box office was 100 million, and the box office was 100 million in five days of release. The publicity team planned to create a promotional poster with a box office of over 100 million. Later, there was some trouble again, and my mind went blank.

I have been thinking about this for a long time. I went back 20 years ago, when my film "Without Thieves" was released during the Lunar New Year. It was my first movie with a box office of over 100 million.

At that time, we, the main creators, rented two carriages and named them "No Thieves". We ate and drank and went to Hong Kong Island for the premiere.

Along the way, the publisher kept sending out good news, and everyone caroused all night on the Beijing-Hong Kong line. Now that I think about it, how passionate it was.

Since then, it has been singing high and invincible.

Today, the world is changing, and a group of emerging directors are vigorous and vigorous, destroying cities and villages, setting new highs repeatedly. A movie has sold 2 billion, and even if it is less than 3 billion, it is embarrassing to celebrate.

Looking at the big red posters created by the team, and then looking at the posters that someone in the same period has already made worth over 1 billion, I can’t help but feel that the hero is getting old.

But I am still grateful. The 100 million box office was a gift from the 2.5 million viewers. The 2.5 million viewers bought the tickets to support Lao Gong based on their trust in the past. I am being polite here.

Nowadays, I am very happy that there are descendants who have surpassed the old age like us, but I must also warn you.

The road to film is long and long, and only by being in awe can you keep going."

...

...

"ha!"

Ding Zhi, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa and stroking the orange cat, smiled.

"Open your mouth!"

Miss Zou leaned next to him, picked up the fruit in the bowl in her hand, and put it into Ding Zhi's mouth.

Her fingers gently rubbed the corners of his mouth and wiped away the juice for him.

"What's the matter?"

After finishing feeding, Miss Zou was also a little curious and glanced at his hand.

"This old guy Gong Dapao does have two skills!"

Ding Zhi said with some confusion while chewing the fruit.

Gong Dapao's blog post was not very long. Zou Yutong finished reading it in a short time and frowned involuntarily.

"In just one blog post, I first talked about the hero back then, then lamented the hero's old age, and finally made it seem like we were bullying him!"

Miss Zou said angrily.

"This old guy was the one who started the trouble first, and now that he's been slapped in the face, he starts to use his age as an excuse? Is he so shameless?"

Perhaps it was related to Ding Zhi, Zou Yutong was very excited at this time, "Brother, do you want us to post on Weibo, just like last time, we will find friends to support you!"

Ding Zhi shook his head, "Now and then, comparing Liu Zhiyan to Gong Dapao is an insult to our brother Dapao. When it comes to connections, Gong Dapao is much older than me, and he definitely knows more people than me."

Of course, there must be more people offended than Ding Zhi.

It can be said that Ding Zhi and Gong Dabao are now at odds with each other. It can be said that the old and new generations of "fighting experts" have met.

Ten or twenty years ago, Gong Dapao was famous for being "hated by gods and ghosts".

He loves to hype and criticize people, and his character is also very weird. He still has the tendency to act on the whim of the situation and cannot get rid of it. It can be said that many of his contemporaries who are film workers are actually like this from the bottom of their hearts.

Look down on him.

But it happened that he could make money at that time, and he could still make a lot of money!

This formed Gong Dapao's unique status at that time.

Ding Zhi is the most outstanding person in the industry in the past few years. The title of "the villain in the entertainment industry" is enough to describe his style.

So at this time, most people in the industry are waiting to watch the show.

Whether Gong Dapao is picked by Ding Zhi, or Ding Zhi is picked by Gong Dapao, there will always be a circle of people who are happy.

This is the battle of face, which seems to be big or small.

"Ling ring ring~"

While Ding Zhi was telling Miss Zou the details of the incident, the cell phone rang. It was Yang Fu who was looking for her.

Miss Zou raised her eyebrows, intending to avoid it. Ding Zhi stretched out his hand to hold her down and pointed at the fruit in her hand.

Miss Zou smiled brightly and took a small piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Hello, Sister Fu."

There seemed to be some silence on the other side.

"What are you doing?"

"Ah, what are you doing?"

Ding Zhi was a little stunned, but then he realized that his pronunciation of Han Hu had misunderstood Liang Qiong.

"No, Sister Fu, what are you thinking about? I'm eating fruit! Eat fruit! If you don't believe me, just listen!"

Ding Zhi then started chewing loudly.

The face of Miss Zou, who was not leaving at the side, turned red all of a sudden, and even her small ears became a little pink.

Looking at this situation, it seems that a past event that cannot be recalled (described) happened.

Then Miss Zou viciously reached out and skillfully found the soft flesh on Ding Zhi's waist, and twisted it gently.

"Hiss~"

Ding Zhi took a breath of cold air.

Then Yang Fu took a long breath and said, "How about I call you later."

"Dududu~"

After saying that, she hung up.

"Crack!"

As soon as the phone was hung up, Zou Yutong reached out and slapped Ding Zhi's thigh hard, and then hammered it a few more times as if he didn't understand his hatred.

"Asshole! I'll let you last!!! I'll let you last!!!"

Miss Zou uttered a few words, but could not continue. She jumped back to the room, and then let out an embarrassed prairie dog scream inside.

Ding Zhi touched his head in a rare gesture and giggled.

Then he stopped smiling and called back.

After a few seconds, it was connected.

"Well? So fast?"

Opposite Yang Fu opened her mouth and subconsciously said the words tiger or wolf.

"They all said no! I'm serious! Let's get down to business!"

Yang Fu on the opposite side seemed to be aware of Ding Zhi's seriousness, and quickly entered the state of talking about business.

"Have you seen the new status of Gong Dapao?"

"Well, I just watched it."

"What do you think?"

Ding Zhi clicked his tongue.

"Tsk, Jiang is really old and spicy. It seems that our subsequent operations are useless."

Although Ding Zhi said bad news, his tone was still quite pleasant, and it was obvious that he didn't take it too seriously.

But that’s how it is.

Ding Zhi's counterattack was somewhat motivated, and of course, he also had a hype mentality.

After all, you can use me to hype you up, but you are not allowed to use you to heat up the situation?

Moreover, you can warm up the scene while slapping your face, which is very refreshing.

But when it comes to how much Ding Zhi puts his mind into scheming against the other party, it's really not that bad.

After all, it does not involve a battle for interests, but more a battle for face.

Some people in the industry said that Ding Zhi was engaged in a "war to establish his authority". He had actually heard of it, but he really didn't take it seriously.

If there really was such a battle to establish his authority, Ding Zhi would have finished it long ago.

"The God of Medicine", which broke the first-week box office record in film history in its first week, is not the best "establishment of prestige".

Joining can bring the box office of this movie to more than 4 billion, so who else dares to say that Ding Zhi is not powerful enough?

"Gong Dapao came to my side and wanted me to be an intermediary to negotiate with you."

Ding Zhi raised his eyebrows lightly.

"What to discuss?"

"I want you to just let it go when you get along. You publicly apologize to him, and then he responds to you and expresses his appreciation for you. Then the hostility turns into friendship."

"puff!"

Ding Zhi was amused.

"What do you think? Why do I feel like there is something wrong with Gong Dapao's thinking? Is this turning conflicts into friendship? Is this asking me to be his pedal? Does he think of me as a fool?"

"Perhaps they feel that they have the upper hand in this public opinion war. Also, after all, he is the boss of the Beijing circle, and he also holds a lot of say. In fact, this is indeed the case."

Yang Fu is right, Gong Dapao's ability to avoid the important and take advantage of the light is quite powerful. After Gong Dapao, who was ridiculed by the crowd because of Ding Zhi's "Great Yin Yang Technique", published this article, the direction of public opinion began to favor him.

.

After all, once the atmosphere of "heroes grow old easily" is created, there will indeed be a natural sense of sympathy.

"Just accept it when you see it coming? Sister Fu, tell him, I, Ding, don't know what it means to accept it when you see it coming. Don't treat others as fools! Now the entertainment industry doesn't accept his old tricks anymore!"

Ding Zhi scratched his ears and seemed not to take the drama seriously.
