China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 190 188. A Murder Case Caused by a Steamed Bun

"Has Wuji seen it?"

In the evening, Cao Yu and Liu Yifei chatted on QQ.

"Not yet. The crew is about to go on vacation. They have been very busy the past few days. Are you coming to see me in the United States? If you don't, I'll buy a ticket to go back."

Liu Yifei hadn't gotten up yet, she was lying on the bed in her pajamas, showing her smooth calves, flicking her delicate feet, and replying messages on the laptop with a few fingers.

""Sword Rain" will be released on New Year's Day, otherwise, you should come back."

"I was planning to go to Times Square in New York with you for the New Year's Eve."

"What's so interesting about that, let's do it next time."

"Then when I come back, you watch "The Promise" with me first."

Seeing this line of words coming from Liu Yifei's dialog box, Cao Yu almost jumped up in fright.

He really didn't dare to look at it any more, so he typed four words: "I've seen it."

Before I press enter, I am afraid that Xiao Liu will ask me to read it again, and I will go crazy.

Cao Yu slowly deleted these four, and entered another line: "Let's talk when you come back, I'll send you a fun video first."

"What video?" Liu Yifei was curious.

"You can tell by looking at it, it's very interesting, and it's related to "The Promise"."

Cao Yu said, and sent the video link of "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun".

"Look first, I'm going to take a shower."

Liu Yifei immediately clicked on the link and read it with great interest.

I saw that this video seemed to be an interception of various fragments of "The Promise", and told the story in the form of Yang Ma's "China Rule of Law Report".

"On a certain day in 2005, a bizarre murder occurred in a certain city. A masked knight killed Wang, the general manager of Yuanhuansuuhuanhuan Entertainment City in broad daylight and under the eyes of everyone. This is the place where the crime occurred. Due to its remote location, there are few people.”

Although Liu Yifei has never watched the movie "The Promise", she still watched it with gusto.

In addition to the fun of the video, the bullet screen of the video is more joyful, and there are also funny complaints.

"This video is better than the movie."

"Yeah, at least I understand what the story is about."

"Hu Ge is such a fucking talent"

"Sure enough, the steamed bun was eaten by the little girl before. I didn't find out about this detail. The UP is amazing."

"Mosquito Incense City, Director Chen's imagination is also awesome, he would be a bit resigned if he doesn't engage in architectural design."

"Root of all evil."

"Powder Liu Ming."

……

The video is fun and beautiful, the barrage is more exciting, and the playback volume has exceeded 200 million times.

"The movie is so ugly? Isn't my mother going to lose?"

Halfway through watching, Liu Yifei suddenly remembered something
The next day, Kaige's studio.

"Oh!"

A cup fell to the ground and shattered, Chen Kai was furious and yelled at his wife, "I'm going to sue this guy named Hu Ge, and I'm going to sue Fei Goose Video!"

The glamorous young woman beside him also agreed: "It must be sued! Because of this video, the word-of-mouth reputation of the movie is getting worse and worse. It has been six days, and the box office is less than 5000 million."

"5000?"

Brother Chen Kai couldn't believe it. He took three years to film "The Promise", costing 3.5 million yuan, and made it with painstaking efforts. It broke so many records on the first day. It has been in theaters for seven days, and the box office is less than 5000 million yuan. ?
Now according to this trend, it is estimated that there will be more than 1 million a month, so I really lost money to my grandma's family.

"It's all because of this video!"

Finally, he put all the responsibility on the person who made the video and the website that spread the video.

Even if my work is not good-looking, I absolutely do not allow anyone to slander it!

"Send a lawyer's letter to sue the person who made the video for maliciously tampering with my movie and desecrating art. I want him to apologize publicly, and I want the company that spread this video to compensate us for our losses!"

Brother Chen Kai roared again.

As a famous director, he didn't want to be put on the stigma of China's film development, causing his reputation to be ruined.

Cao Yu sent a lawyer's letter to Hua Yi before, this time, Chen Kai followed suit, not only sent a lawyer's letter, but also held a small press conference to show his importance.

"We have already sued him, and this issue must be resolved to the end! A person cannot be so shameless!"

"Flying Goose Video is owned by Feiyu Entertainment. Their purpose is to promote their new movie "Sword Rain". They deliberately use this method to attack my work. Therefore, they must pay compensation!"

"Yes, we are already collecting information with the lawyer. If they see the lawyer's letter and don't apologize for compensation, we will definitely sue him!"

"What do netizens know? They are induced by videos, just for fun, what do they know about art?"

"Even if there is support from netizens, it is useless, we must sue!"

Facing the reporter's question, Chen Kai did not waver in his determination to sue.

In the end, he also said: "The Promise is an epic blockbuster that I have spent three years creating. I am aiming for an Oscar. I guarantee that no one will be able to understand it within 15 years!"

Hearing this, an unlucky reporter asked, "What if Oscar doesn't understand?"

This sentence made Chen Kai slap the table and almost shouted: "Security, security, get this troublemaker out of me!"

Fortunately, Chen Hong, who was beside him, saw that there were not many things to do, so she hurriedly pulled him back, and then smoothed things over: "This is the end of the press conference, and the follow-up results, please wait and see."

When Chen Kaige's studio held a press conference, Cao Yu was rushing to the airport.

Liu Yifei's mother and daughter came back from the United States today, and he was going to pick them up.

"Ding Ding Ding"

Cao Yu has changed the ringtone of his mobile phone to a normal one. He thinks it is very embarrassing to play music on the mobile phone.

"Hey, Mr. Zhou, what's the matter?"

"Boss, Brother Chen Kai's studio sent us a lawyer's letter and threatened to sue us."

On the phone, Zhou Juan's voice was a little anxious.

"A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun" is becoming more and more popular on the Internet. In two days, the number of views has exceeded 400 million, and it has also brought more than 100 million VIP customers to the website.

However, Chen Kai's reputation is too great in the circle, they sent a lawyer's letter, and they have an important attitude on their side.

"A lawyer's letter?"

Cao Yu was not in a hurry, and said: "He is helping us to promote it. It's a good thing. Let him call first. The more fierce the call, the higher the number of videos played, the more benefits we have. His amazing assist , we should thank him."

"It's true, but what if he really sues?"

"If you sue, you will sue. The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Take a look first. If you encounter something, stay calm."

After Cao Yu finished speaking, he was about to hang up the phone when he suddenly instructed: "Let our legal department contact that Hu Ge, and tell him not to be afraid. If there is anything wrong, we will help him!"

"Ok."

Zhou Juan could only agree, and then said worriedly: "Boss, are we really planning to confront Brother Chen Kai?"

"Don't be afraid, just do it!"

Cao Yu dropped this sentence, hung up the phone, and casually said to Pang Yuan: "Dude, have you read "The Promise?"

Pang Yuan smiled and said, "Wuji? I heard it was extremely boring, so I didn't watch it, but I did watch "Steamed Bun Murder" on the Internet, and it was very interesting."

"Hehe, it seems that the public's appreciation is still the same, it hasn't changed at all."

Cao Yu smiled inwardly, then leaned back on the chair, thinking in his mind how he would ask Liu Xiaoli to work for him when he saw Liu Xiaoli later.

In Shanghai, Hu Ge feels very happy these days. The popularity of "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun" has surpassed that of "Movie", and the number of views continues to rise. He is likely to be selected as the top ten UP masters of Feigo Entertainment.

More importantly, the playback volume is now 500 million. According to this playback volume, he can get at least 5000 yuan.

This is my salary for more than three months.

But when he came to the office with brisk steps, a colleague with whom he had a good relationship came over and said, "Old Hu, you're in for a big deal!"

"what happened?"

If Hu Ge stays in a daze, what can happen?
A colleague pulled him to the computer, turned on the news, and said, "Brother Chen Kai sent a lawyer's letter and said he would sue you!"

"what?"

Hu Ge's back felt cold for a while, and some cold sweat broke out on his forehead. A small video that he made a spoof of, really got into trouble?
What should I do if I sue?He has never encountered such a thing.

Seeing Hu Ge like this, the colleague quickly said: "Why don't you quickly take that video off the Internet and apologize online."

Hearing that the video was going to be taken off the shelves, Hu Ge was a little reluctant. If it was taken off the shelf, the more than 1 yuan he played would be gone.

Thinking about the money, he calmed down and said angrily, "The movie was not made well, and you're still so narrow-minded. As for going online?"

"The arm can't twist the thigh, so it's better to remove it to save trouble." The colleague also persuaded.

"alright."

Just as he sat in front of the computer and was about to log in to his account, the phone rang suddenly.
