China Entertainment's whatever you want

Chapter 734 Domineering leakage
The main controller of [Great Wish] is [Hengye Film and Television], and the co-producers are China Film and Wanda.

Adapted from the Korean film of the same name, it tells the story of an 18-year-old boy, Gao Yuan, who is about to die of a terminal illness and wants to fulfill a wish before he dies.

The story of Gao Yuan's two good brothers, Xu Hao and Zhang Zhengyang, who helped him at all costs to fulfill his last wish.

There is nothing wrong with the movie having three male protagonists, but Gao Yuan, who suffers from a terminal illness, is undoubtedly the center of the story, while the roles of his two good brothers are actually comparable.

The early promotion of the film has always been centered around Peng Yuchang, and no one expected that such an unexpected incident would occur so close to the release date.

After Gu Wei gave Yang Dan his instructions, he personally called Yang Liwen and told her to be tougher and to hold those responsible accountable. If all else failed, she could terminate the contract and file a lawsuit. It was the producers who violated the contract first, and although the dispute over the role was difficult to hear, they were clearly in the right.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Wei thought about it and called Peng Yuchang again.

".Don't worry, I have already told Manager Yang about this matter, and the company will help you."

"Brother Wei, why don't we just forget it? We had a good relationship during the filming, but now it's become a falling out." Peng Peng has a relatively weak personality, and the first thing he thought of after hearing what Gu Wei said was to keep the peace.

"Forget it? How can I forget it?

Peng Peng, let me tell you, in the entertainment industry, if you don’t fight and compete, you’ll never get ahead.

The so-called Buddhism and being as calm as a chrysanthemum are all human settings.

Besides, you did nothing wrong in this matter.

Don’t worry about it, the company will naturally help you with the follow-up matters, just follow the arrangements.”

Although Gu Wei usually looks gentle, he has never been a tolerant person.

He will never show mercy when someone infringes upon his interests.

".I understand, thank you Brother Wei!"

“We don’t need to talk too much.”

After Gu Wei arranged things, he didn't bother with it anymore. His attitude was very clear. Yang Liwen had been working as an agent for so many years, she knew how to handle such things.

There were no surprises at the event in Shanghai. Since Gu Wei signed the contract with Tencent Games in 2016, the cooperation has been very pleasant and the contract has been renewed once.

[Honor of Kings] has now developed into the competitive mobile game with the largest number of online users in China, and Gu Wei’s contribution is indispensable.

“.Thanks to Gu Wei for coming, and thanks to all the [Honor of Kings] players for their support. The 2019 [Honor of Kings Co-creation Night] ends here, and we’ll see you next year!”

After the host finished his closing remarks, streamers shot up into the sky around the stage. All the guests invited to the event came on stage, super-burning background music began to play, and the audience in the venue twisted their bodies and stood up.

After a perfect event, Gu Wei was invited to have dinner with executives of Tencent Games after he stepped off the stage.

"Teacher Gu Wei, the marketing department of our company has an idea. In addition to you, we plan to find four more celebrity spokespersons to form a [King of Glory] celebrity team."

At the dinner table, the marketing director of Tencent Games sat next to Gu Wei.

"Hmm~ That's a great idea. We can organize a few matches between celebrity teams and professional players. I believe it will be very popular." Gu Wei nodded, and then responded, "This is very similar to the plot of my drama You Are My Glory."

“Haha~ We also found inspiration from TV dramas, and the ultimate goal is to better promote the game!
Teacher Gu Wei, do you have any recommendations? After all, even if we find other spokespersons, we will focus on you. It would be best to find a star who can cooperate with you."

Director Wang was a man who knew how to talk. He kept praising Gu Wei in his words, which made him feel very comfortable.

"Do you have any requests?"

“It would be best if the star himself likes playing games and has a certain level of gaming ability. In the future, we will form a team to play in competitions, and the results will definitely be more exciting if the player plays well.

No matter how famous you are, your traffic can’t be too low.”

"Yang Mi is definitely suitable. Lin Gengxin is also OK. I have played games with him before, and he is not as bad as Wang Sicong said."

Gu Wei thought about it and mentioned two people casually.

After the activities in Shanghai ended, Gu Wei returned to the crew to continue filming.

On September 9, "The Great Wish" held its premiere press conference. In the official actor ranking order released by the film, Peng Yuchang was still second, which caused dissatisfaction among some viewers and fans.

At 10 o'clock that evening, Peng Yuchang's company, Weiming Tianxia, ​​released a statement:
Because the producer of "A Great Wish" Hengye Film and Television blurred the actors' rankings, infringed Peng Yuchang's right to authorship, violated the contract provisions, and after repeated communication, the film company still refuses to correct it.

Therefore, in accordance with the provisions of the contract, Peng Yuchang terminated the contract with it, no longer cooperated in the promotional activities, and entrusted a lawyer to pursue legal rights.

At the same time, Peng Yuchang said that he would conduct roadshow promotional activities at his own expense.

A single stone can cause a thousand ripples. This low-budget movie, which was originally of average popularity, suddenly attracted a lot of attention.

Wang Dalu is an artist who debuted in Taiwan. Although he is not very famous, he has exceptionally good resources. As soon as Peng Yuchang made this statement, many netizens and fans speculated that it was the Taiwanese capital behind him that was making an effort to reap the benefits.

After all, it's not the first time that Taiwan has done such a thing. For example, in the original time and space's "The Richest Man in Xihong City", the old partners Shen Teng and Ma Li were originally scheduled, but in order to promote their own people, Taiwan capital kicked Ma Li out before filming began. As a result, Shen Teng was dissatisfied, and when promoting the movie, he made all kinds of insinuations about the female lead Song Yunhua.

The day after Peng Yuchang’s statement was issued, Wang Dalu Studio released a “solemn statement” on Weibo.

What this means is that Wang Dalu played the leading male role according to the contract and performed his duties as agreed. The so-called "suppressing other artists" and "capital strength" are all false.

Almost at the same time, Hengye Film and Television, the producer of "The Great Wish", released a statement through the official Weibo account of the film.

The film company apologized to Peng Yuchang, Wang Dalu and their fans for blurring the starring roles. It also stated that Peng Yuchang and Wang Dalu are both the leading actors in the film, and the relevant staff will be held accountable.

The producer admitted his mistake but did not mention how to correct it. He just wanted to use this to reduce the negative impact of the incident on all parties.

Wang Dalu was very confident and didn't feel he had done anything wrong.

While netizens were discussing the matter, a Weibo post by Gu Wei added more heat to the incident.

@彭玉昌, we don't pick fights but we are definitely not afraid of them. Although I don't think fighting for a role is a good thing, it is reasonable to exist, not to mention that we have already signed a contract.
It is 2019 now, not 09. Artists from certain places are not treated any better than those here.

Since you come to work here, you must abide by our rules. As a fellow countryman, I will not let you suffer any loss.

If you have an unclear stance and are planning to play some ulterior motives, I advise you to go back to where you came from!

After Gu Wei posted this Weibo, it immediately sparked public opinion.

Unlike Peng Yuchang and Wang Dalu, Gu Wei receives much more attention than them.

Many netizens had no idea what had happened and only searched for the details after seeing his Weibo post.

So they all supported Peng Yuchang.

【Joy of Life】 crew.

".The tone of your Weibo post was a bit too harsh. It's fine to help Peng Yuchang, but the second half of the post alludes to a lot of people. I'm afraid a lot of people will be dissatisfied after reading it!"

Jing Tian was completely concerned about Gu Wei, fearing that he would offend too many people.

"So what if they are dissatisfied? What can they do? Who dares to offend me?
Humph, if you come to the mainland to beg, you must have the attitude of a beggar. They have spoiled you one by one.

Taiwan Capital is unable to fully understand the situation and still thinks it is ten or twenty years ago.

Huang Bo won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor that year, and then he played the role of Zhao Youting in "Black and White". This was because he saw that Peng Yuchang was nominated for a Golden Horse Award last year, and he thought he could control him, so he unscrupulously snatched the role and performance.

They didn't find out clearly that Peng Peng is my man!"

Gu Wei's tone was unusually arrogant.

The people around him didn't dare to speak. Tian Xiwei looked at his boss with admiration.

Jing Tian was helpless: "I felt that when we first met, your personality was as gentle as jade. Although you are famous, you always give people a feeling of not competing or fighting. How come you have become more and more domineering in the past two years!"

Gu Wei smiled and said, "He is as gentle as jade, but he has not encountered anything that can make me angry. Now there are those who are not sensible, so of course I have to teach him to be sensible."

“When Wei Ge first debuted, he was also very popular. I still remember him and Zhang Han quarreled online over the casting of “My Sunshine”.

After the release of "Detective Chinatown 1", he and Director Feng made sarcastic remarks to each other in an interview.

And later he stood up for Wu Jing and forced the original "Four Returnees" to come out and apologize for the behavior of their fans."

Tian Xiwei interrupted from the side. She was a loyal fan of Gu Wei and knew everything about his career since his debut.

"Haha, I was indeed young and energetic back then, but later when my fame grew, few people bothered me anymore." Gu Wei smiled and patted Xiaotian's head. Da Tiantian looked at him and frowned.

Guo Qilin laughed and said: "Didn't Mr. Huang Bo say that when you become famous, you will find that there are good people around you.

With your current fame and status, it's hard for anyone in the circle to go against you. We're not stupid!"

"Isn't it Wang Dalu?" Xiaotian said.

"He wanted to control Peng Yuchang, but he didn't consider that Peng Peng's boss was Brother Wei. He hit a wall!"

Jing Tian said, "Don't flatter him here. Wang Dalu is nothing, but Gu Wei's Weibo almost alludes to all Taiwanese people in the entertainment industry, including actors, directors and other positions.

It’s not good to offend so many people.”

Gu Wei knew Jing Tian was thinking about him, but he didn't care: "It doesn't matter. If you want to say that I have offended someone, I have already offended him when I banned the Golden Horse Awards.

And I said it very clearly, and took this opportunity to remind those people again.

If you want to make money in mainland China, first, make your position clear, and second, don’t play any tricks.

This is the general trend of history. Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish. It has never been changed by personal will!"

"What does the company think? I just want to make some achievements in the movie "The Great Wish". It's okay to offend Peng Yuchang, but why did they blow up Gu Wei? Can I afford to offend him?"

Wang Dalu has been in a bad mood these days. After messing up "The Legend of the Mermaid Pearl" and "The Amateur Agent", he wanted to make a comeback with "The Great Wish". After all, Peng Yuchang's current national popularity is not low, and the box office of his previous two movies were also good.

As for stepping on Peng Yuchang to get ahead, he didn't feel it at all. He is a Taiwanese artist and has a sense of superiority.

Moreover, the capital behind him was the same one that once supported Ke Zhendong, but Ke failed to live up to expectations and reached his bottom line, from which he had no way to turn things around. Wang Dalu had taken his place.

Who would have thought that he would end up losing more than he gained by stepping on Peng Yuchang, which would lead to Gu Wei being implicated.

This person is someone he absolutely cannot afford to offend. He publicly banned the Golden Horse Awards and let Gu Wei do it.

He is simply not on the same level as others.

"We didn't expect Peng Yuchang's company to react so strongly to this matter, and even the boss Gu Wei personally stood up for him.

Logically speaking, last year's Golden Horse Awards gave Peng Yuchang a nomination, so he should be sensible."

The agent is also from Taiwan, and there is a condescending attitude in his words.

"So what should I do now? I read the public opinion online. Because of Gu Wei's Weibo, netizens are scolding me. My reputation has completely collapsed."

Wang Dalu looked dejected. He felt that he was extremely unlucky to have encountered such a thing.

“I will discuss it with the company and see if we can reach a private settlement with Wei Ming Tian Xia.

After all, we are not in the right in this matter, and it will not do us any good to confront them head-on."

Beijing, China Film Group.

"Gu Wei is really young and hot-tempered. He really can't stand any injustice. His actions will have some impact on the release of the movie. We and Wanda have also invested in it."

La Peikang said this with a smile, and his tone seemed to be accusing Gu Wei but he did not mean to blame him at all.

"If I had made such a big name and established such a huge foundation before I was 30, I would definitely be more ambitious than Gu Wei!" said Xu Jianhai, the manager of the production branch, with a smile.

“And I feel like with all this commotion, the movie’s box office might be even higher.

Gu Wei’s fame is not comparable to those two leading actors.”

Wei Daxun is so pitiful. Although this is a movie about three people, he does not deserve to have a name.

Now everyone has ignored him, but in fact, he and Wang Dalu have almost the same roles and parts.

"The impact of his Weibo post was too great. Any entertainment worker from Taiwan would feel uncomfortable after seeing it."

La Peikang waved his hand: "Things are different now. What they are doing now is indeed too much. Just look at the announcement regarding the Golden Horse Awards this year.

In the future, any Taiwanese artists working in the mainland who are found to have bad tendencies will be banned completely. This is the bottom line.

Although Gu Wei is young and hot-tempered, he is very smart and always stands on the right side."

Manager Xu nodded: "This is indeed Gu Wei's outstanding feature"

"By the way, how is the preparation for Guo Fan's sequel to The Wandering Earth going?

Gu Wei has also agreed to film the second and third parts together, so now it’s up to him as the director.” La Peikang heard it.

"I just met Guo Fan a few days ago. He and Gong Ge are still perfecting the scripts for the second and third parts of The Wandering Earth.

According to him, everything on paper will be almost finished by the end of the year. If preparations start next year, it will take at least 21 years to shoot.

And if he takes two or three shots in a row, it will put more pressure on him.

Because the second and third parts are the prequel to "The Wandering Earth" and the story after leaving Jupiter respectively, many things in terms of scenes and props cannot be shared between the two dramas.

So he said that even if we shoot it continuously, it will take at least four years to complete it."

La Peikang was silent for a while.

"Let's prepare first. We have no shortage of funds anyway. Just like when we filmed the first film, we will take it one step at a time and make sure Guo Fan doesn't feel any burden. We will work hard to make the best and strive to surpass the previous film!"

"clear."
