Chapter 1079: The White Jade Pillar Standing on the Sea Purple Gold Beam!

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket!Ask for a monthly pass!
Hong Kong Island Directors Association tea bar meeting room on Hung To Road, Kwun Tong, filled with smoke and coughing sporadically. There are 24 chairs around the oval wooden table in the middle. Most of them are seated, and a few seats are left, and some people are sitting outside. Circle, or pestle beside.

"I don't think this kind of thing needs to be discussed. Just expel Mecca's membership and issue a notice to the entire circle. If you don't hire me, it's OK."

Zeng Yazi waved his hands and squinted his eyes, as if it was a matter of course, "Obviously, he is the black sheep in the circle."

Wu Siyuan picked up the teacup, "What's your opinion?"

"I agree."

With a sullen face, Sammo Hung glanced at everyone present, his voice suppressed, "As far as I know, many people in the industry have been ruined by him. Not only us, but also members of other associations. Chairman Xu, the Actors Association should also have ?”

"I did receive reports from many people." Xu Guanwen nodded, but did not say anything else.

Tsui Hark clicked on his cigar without making a sound.

He was actually quite troubled.

Glancing at Teddy Robin next to him, the latter also bowed his head, making no sound.

Mecca has had ups and downs in the industry for more than 20 years. Although this investment failure has affected many people, many people have worked with him, and they still sympathize with him...

There must be something wrong with him in this matter, but it's all on him, and it's not all right.

However, at this time, they are hard to say.

Otherwise, it is inevitable that there will be a feeling of "standing and talking without backache". What's more, Sanmao has frequently spoken out in the circle recently. As good friends on both sides, it is even more difficult for them to speak out.

"Isn't today's topic about the preparations for the [-]th Academy Awards?"

Zhang Wanting took off her glasses, lowered her head and said softly, "What happened to Mr. Mai should have little to do with the film industry, right?"

"Mai's Investment Bank closed down! The bastard Mecca defrauded more than 20 colleagues in the circle of hard-earned money, and ran away with his secretary!"

Zeng Yazi slapped the table with a hoarse voice, "Everyone in the circle is in danger now, shouldn't he bear the consequences?"

"This is clearly the reason..." Without waiting for Zhang Wanting to refute, her husband Luo Qirui touched her with his foot and winked.

In just a few days, the news of Mecca's escape with money swept across the entire entertainment circle like a tornado, and even various rumors appeared in the market.On the street, on the street, people from Xin'an scraped him everywhere, causing even more commotion.

It is said that more than 20 celebrities and many bosses were all cheated by Mecca... The funds involved exceeded several hundred million Hong Kong dollars.

In Mecca now, everyone in the circle is shouting and beating.

Cheng Long sat on the side with a very serious expression.He was not cheated, but Sanmao, Yuan Bing and others were cheated miserably, how could he get out?In the past few days, he has intermittently spent more than 2000 million Hong Kong dollars to pay Sammo Hung's debts...

You can't just watch Sammo Hung really live on the street, can you?

While the crowd was buzzing, the door was suddenly pushed open.

"Wu Sheng!"

"Director Wu!"

"Mr. Wu."

Fei Cheng helped to open the door, Wu Xiaozu appeared in front of the crowd, and many people immediately stood up to greet him.

Cheng Long also heaved a sigh of relief, and Zeng Zhiwei, Chen Jiaxuan and others had to stand up together.

"So lively? Sit down—"

Wu Xiaozu smiled like a spring breeze, reached out and patted Sanmao's shoulder, and looked at his haggard face with concern, "Joyce came to me yesterday and told me about you. Don't be stressed, everything depends on me."

He raised his head with a smile, looked at Wenxi, and looked around, everyone's faces paused slightly, "I have heard about the things in the circle. I have been dealing with other things during this time, and I haven't had time to spare.

I am well aware of the problems you encounter. If there is a turnover problem or it is inconvenient to withdraw money from the bank for a while, I will find a solution. Don't worry, everyone will have a good year. "

The voice is soft, but it contains sincerity. At the same time, it is very euphemistic when speaking, taking everyone's face into consideration.

Do not know why.

As soon as Wu Xiaozu spoke, many people felt relieved, even the face-saving Sanmao himself felt relieved.

Tsui Hark and Teddy Robin looked at each other, and both breathed a sigh of relief.The former lowered his head, but couldn't hide the pride of "my good friend is awesome".

What Wu Xiaozu said is what he said.

Although Shi Nansheng controls the film studio's money...but...he has spoken out spiritually.

Wu Xiaozu sat at the main seat without hesitation, Er Xiaobao helped pour a cup of tea, looked at the young and handsome Er Dongsheng, and joked with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Director Er has not seen for a long time, but he is still so pretty."

"No matter what, it's better than Sir Wu." Er Xiaobao smiled and helped put the tea cover aside, completely without the aura when he was angry at Guo Xiaosi.

Xiaobao is a pretty good person. . .

Recently, he accepted a script from Locomotive [-], intending to cooperate with the locomotive and find a job for him, so his attitude must be lowered a bit.

"The matter of Mecca, let's not talk about it here. It's nothing to cause trouble." Wu Xiaozu said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "The association is mainly based on the promotion of the development of Chinese-language films. Irrelevant things are really not suitable? What do you think? ?”

"It's really not suitable." Tsui Hark was the first to support.

"Associations blacklist or ban a person, we still have to start with his professional ethics or principled issues."

Wu Xiaozu determined the nature of the matter, "As an industry organization, we are all responsible persons elected by the industry, and we still have to be responsible for everyone. This convening of everyone is also to discuss the preparations for the 10th Golden Image Awards. The last cross-strait The gathering of the three places has a huge influence. This time, I hope to expand the scale and see more fresh blood. Therefore, I hope that the selection criteria can be relaxed..."

Someone in the audience wanted to refute, but found that they didn't know how to refute.

Last time, the tone had already been set, and now they are doing nothing?It doesn't seem to be on the table either.

Even, everyone can see that with the development of the Golden Image Awards, the Golden Horse Awards have indeed been greatly affected.

This year's Golden Horse Awards seem to have dimmed a lot.I heard that Golden Horse wanted to invite Wu Xiaozu, but he declined because he didn't have suitable works.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is still because of the lack of harvest last year.

Of course, the reason is indeed sufficient, after all, "Seven Sins" has not been released.

……

In Tokyo, gloom and gloom filled the sky above the city. Countless people walked on the streets.

Kazuo Koizumi had a wrinkled suit, a shoulder briefcase slung over his shoulder, and sitting beside the flower bed with disheveled hair, his former beauty had long since disappeared.

The heavy unemployment pressure made him overwhelmed.

The entire Japanese economy collapsed.Countless companies have begun layoffs... But the bank's mortgage and car loans are like a reminder that they don't stop for a moment.

A cold wind blew, and a newspaper fell at his feet.

"The world is not worth it, a journey of reflection on redemption: I am sorry to be born as a human being!" ".

The big title made him startled.

Inexplicably, I felt the darkness and depression in my heart resonate.Bending down to pick up the newspaper, a picture of "The Seven Sins" came into view.

"Man is tortured by greed, and his nature is altered by arrogance, envy, and laziness.

This is a discussion about human nature. It does not answer your life, but it will definitely let you find the reason for your failure.

On January 1st, the new film "Seven Sins" by Xiaozu, who was the first Cannes Double Palme d'Or member in Asia, the best director in Cannes, and the winner of Oscar's best foreign language film nomination, was officially released on January 1st!
Please let the collapse of the empire brought about by Musang be more tragic, just like our gorgeous life like cherry blossoms! "

Kazuo Koizumi's hands trembled as he stared closely at the slogan in the newspaper.

The suppressed emotions seemed to be stained with a layer of grief and indignation.

If it were another country, at this moment, movies with such themes might not be very popular—but this is Japan, a country with extremely twisted brain circuits, where world-weariness can become the mainstream emotion...

"Seven Sins" is like a Pandora's box, seducing countless failed and curious people to watch.

This can be regarded as Wu Xiaozu adding his own firewood for the economic downturn of Japan.

It can be predicted that ten or 20 years later, at this point of collapse, a work that analyzes human nature in this way will bring such a refreshing experience to this generation of Dongying people...

Of course, Wu Xiaozu does not admit that the rise in suicide rate has something to do with him. He is an affirmative advocate of peace, democracy, charity, environmental protection, feminism and human rights.

No one knows the most beautiful scenery better than him.

While making a lot of money in the Japanese market, "Seven Sins" was released at the same time.

For this, Wu Xiaozu felt somewhat guilty.

So I am planning to let Izumi Sakai come over with the single "投けないで" to cheer up the people of Dongying after a while.

In later generations, in Dongying, this song has long occupied the top of various support song charts, was selected into textbooks, and continued to send courage and hope to countless people throughout the Heisei era.

The strongest support song!

none of them.

You see, what Wu Xiaozu declared is of course peace and love - on the premise of being able to earn money.

"Give me a movie ticket for "Seven Sins." Kazuo Koizumi followed the long queue and bought a movie ticket.

Then, into the cinema.

120 minutes later, a figure jumped down from the upper floor of the cinema! ! ! !
That night, major TV stations reported the news.

On the next day, the Propaganda Department of [-] responsibly posted a striking reminder on the major newspapers—"This film is extremely brain-burning and depressing, not suitable for the weak and middle-aged to watch." , please choose carefully, you will bear the consequences!!"

On the third day, the word-of-mouth of "Seven Sins" fermented.

The government chose to turn a blind eye to this economically effective film.

What's more, this film has been approved by the Japanese Film Ethics Committee for release, which is completely legal and compliant.In Japan's movie rating system, this movie is just a '15 forbidden' movie.

Next, "Seven Sins" exploded at the Japanese box office!
