It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?

Chapter 723: Choose a side? Then let the bullets fly for a while!

The huge conference hall was completely silent at this moment.

On the rostrum, Tong Gang chewed over the word "bad artist" in his mouth, and swept his eyes over the people present, looking at those terrified faces with an amusement expression.

Meanwhile, off the stage, Fade Chen still stood among the crowd, his eyes constantly making contact with all kinds of people around him.

Almost ninety percent of the people, after meeting his gaze, looked fierce and angry!

However, they soon looked away. Although they kept cursing in their hearts, they did not dare to show their dissatisfaction.

Just when the atmosphere at the scene was in a very tense state, Huo Qigang, who also came to attend the meeting, slowly stood up.

"Golden Harvest Films supports Director Chen Fei's proposal and will never cooperate with any artist with bad records in the future."

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the Hong Kong actors, directors, etc. who were originally watching the excitement suddenly changed, and they inexplicably felt as if the sky was falling!

The Hong Kong film and television industry is only so big, and after Huaxingxing was completely bankrupt, the high-quality resources were almost all concentrated in the two companies, Golden Harvest and Yinghuang.

Now that Golden Harvest has suddenly done this, doesn’t it mean that the Hong Kong film and television industry is also going to be turned upside down?
At this moment, looking at Huo Qigang who stood up, Yang Shoucheng was slightly stunned, and his eyes subconsciously moved to Chen Fei.

Just at this moment, Fade Chen's eyes also turned to him.

At this moment, his heart was shocked!
When he realized that he had to "take sides", he didn't think too much about it and slowly stood up with the support of his crutches.

"Ying Huang, I support Director Chen Fei's proposal. I will never cooperate with any artist with bad records in the future."

Although Yinghuang is the first Hong Kong film and television company to "join" the mainland, its current success is mainly due to the support of Chen Fei.

"Ip Man" and "The Man from Macau", these two huge profitable projects, were both given by Chen Fei.

Now is the critical moment. If he doesn't express his opinion, he will have no chance to do so in the future.

Looking at this scene, Fade Chen raised his lips slightly, retracted his gaze, and looked back at the podium.

"Crazy! They're all fucking crazy!"

Wang Changtian muttered to himself with gritted teeth, and finally after glaring at Fade Chen, he forced himself to stand up.

"Guangguang also supports Director Chen Fei's proposal!"

The Hong Kong film and television industry has already been "subdued" by now, and their say is not that great, so the mainland does not particularly care about it.

But the echo of the light made many people present feel a sudden tightening of their hearts.

After all, Wang Changtian and Guangxian are also a strong presence in the mainland. His "support" means that many people in the domestic entertainment industry are going to be in big trouble.

"Youku, support."

Gu Yongqiang followed closely behind, without any hesitation, firmly following the boss's footsteps.

Immediately afterwards, four generals, Su Guohai, Zhong Lifang, Chen Guofu and Jiang Xueruo, stood up.

Su Guohai issued a statement on behalf of the entire Feiyue Film and Television system: "From today on, all film and television works, variety shows, animations, etc. produced or invested by Feiyue Film and Television will refuse to allow bad artists to participate."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jia Zhangke, Ning Hao, Kang Honglei, Wang Shiliang, Shen Ao, Lu Yang, Li Yang, Guo Fan, Yang Yu and other directors under Feiyue Films all stood up.

"We support Director Chen Fei's proposal."

Ye Ning, who was standing by, was holding his cell phone, sweating anxiously. He would glance at Chen Fei from time to time, as if he was waiting for news from someone.

It was not until Ren Zhonglun stood up and expressed his support for La Peikang's proposal to appropriately restrict the performing activities of artists with bad records that he finally received a reply from the big boss!
The next second, he held his head high and stood up suddenly!

"Wanda Pictures supports Director Chen Fei's proposal!"

Lu Zheng was not present today because he was abroad, but the vice president of Starlight still stood up and said, "Starlight also supports Director Chen Fei."

Many people at the scene were already gasping for breath.

It's a mess! It's a complete mess!
As Chen Fei stood up, several of the most box office-reliant directors in the entire film and television industry stood up with him. His influence has even spread to the entire entertainment industry!

Although influential "predecessors" in the film industry such as Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, and Feng Xiaogang have not spoken out explicitly, people like Ning Hao and Guo Fan are no less influential than them.

After all, these are all members of the billion box office club, especially Guo Fan, who even made a work with a box office of 30 billion!

It is no exaggeration to say that in terms of capital and influence, Guo Fan's value is much higher than that of Brother Chen Kai!
However, at this moment, Chen Fei took out another big nuclear bomb!

"From now on, Pan Asia Cinemas will no longer allow films starring artists with bad records to be screened."

When these words were spoken, it was like a bolt from the blue!
Pan Asia Cinemas is the largest cinema system in the entire domestic entertainment industry and even in the entire East Asia. I don’t know how many film and television companies rely on it for their survival.

If we lose such a channel, the loss of profits will be extremely huge. If things go wrong, it may even bankrupt the company!
For a moment, all major associations became anxious.

"The Film Association opposes Chen Fei's proposal. This proposal is too irresponsible and is simply a crime!"

"The Performing Arts Association opposes it! It is a great virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them. Is it necessary to kill them all?"

"The Directors Association... objects! It's too arbitrary, too arbitrary!"

"The Screenwriters Guild objects. We are not perfect, so who can be without fault?"

"Hua Yi objects!"

"Chengtian objects!"

"Bona objects!"

"Huan Rui objects!"

"Ali strongly objects!"

“LeTV also opposes it!”

"Tencent...anything is fine..."

For a moment, the voices of opposition at the scene became one and the same, even more intense than before.

There are also some people who think that change should be made, but they also think that Chen Fei's behavior is too radical, so they can only choose to remain silent and wait for the development of the situation.

Looking at these indignant association members, Fade Chen curled his lips and didn't care at all.

"I haven't even joined an association, and I don't need to go back home to collect your crappy prize, so what am I afraid of? Just do it!"

As for Huayi, Bona and the like, he didn't even take them seriously.

As the leader of the industry, if one of them harbors corruption and does all kinds of petty thefts, whether it can "survive" in the future is another matter.

Ye Ning seemed to be infected by the atmosphere at the scene and shouted at the top of his voice: "Wanda Cinemas supports Director Chen Fei!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the noisy meeting place fell silent.

A group of people turned their heads and looked at him in astonishment, as if the sun had risen from the west.

Pan Asia and Wanda, the two largest private cinema companies in the industry, have spoken out. Now there is no need for even official statements, as these two companies alone are enough to sentence those bad artists to death.

The movies they starred in cannot be released in theaters. Which company will dare to use these bad artists in the future?
Wang Zhonglei opened his mouth several times, wanting to refute, but for a moment he was too scared!

He is afraid too!

If the movies made by Huayi in the future cannot be released in theaters, doesn’t that mean that the film and television industry is completely over?

Although they have been calling for "de-monopolization of film and television", the funds are now taken out from the film and television channels. If this really happens, the stock price will definitely collapse completely.

At this moment, everyone turned their heads and looked at Tong Gang on the stage.

The two parties each hold their own opinions and cannot reconcile, so they can only attack the referee.

"I have heard your opinions."

On the rostrum, Tong Gang looked at Chen Fei deeply, and then announced: "Next, the bureau will study and judge the opinions collected today and come to a final conclusion... So let's stop here today."

After that, the leaders began to leave.

Many people in the audience were a little surprised. What kind of operation was this?
The two sides were arguing and about to fight, so why did the referee withdraw? When will the final result be announced?

Many people who had just spoken up for Chen Fei looked at him with some worry in their eyes. If he won, everyone would be happy, but if he lost, then all their words and actions today would become a joke.

"Don't worry, it's still early, let the bullet fly for a while."

Chen Fei appeared quite calm, as if he had anticipated the current situation.

After a while of noise, the people below began to slowly leave.

Many members of the association sneered at Chen Fei when they passed by him.

As long as things progress to the stage of "holding a meeting to study and judge", it is time for the association members to get involved.

Once they enter their home court, they don’t believe they can lose!
"You guy are really awesome!" Jiang Wen walked over with an expression of emotion and gave a thumbs up from a distance.

Fade Chen laughed: "As long as we live, we have to make some contribution to society, right?"

After responding, he looked at Ye Ning, who had not left yet, with some surprise: "Mr. Ye seems very excited today?"

"Haha." Ye Ning laughed and said, "The big boss has told me to follow your steps. He will take care of anything that happens."

"Director Wang is indeed a good person."

Chen Fei sighed and became more determined to continue cooperating with Wanda.

I have to say that when it comes to major issues, Lao Wang did nothing wrong.

Wang Changtian suddenly said leisurely: "If nothing unexpected happens, you will become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of many people."

“Was I afraid of them?”

Chen Fei shrugged, indicating that he didn't care.

With his current influence and ability, he is not afraid of anyone trying to trip him up.

Maybe the old guys in the association would block his movie or something based on the power they have, but Chen Fei is not without people above him.

If anyone dares to find fault with something, he will report it to the General Administration to see who is more powerful!
Don't underestimate a director and capital that possesses enormous power both at home and abroad. The people at the top see things more clearly. Chen Fei's current status is simply not comparable to that of one or two associations.

The association can be rebuilt if it is gone, but if he is gone, the loss will be enormous!
Hundreds of people left in an orderly manner. Chen Fei did not stay here for long. After having a meal with a group of "allies", he returned to the company.

He has already decided which movie to make next. He will first refine the script and when the incident has fermented enough, he can submit it for review.

He believed that justice would definitely be on the right side!
……

The meeting was held in the morning, and in the afternoon, the relevant content of the meeting was leaked by "someone with ulterior motives".

Weibo and major portals are now all filled with news about this conference, which even attracted the attention and heated discussions of tens of millions of people.

"According to relevant sources, this morning, the bureau officially held a conference for the film and television industry to discuss and collect many opinions on how to punish artists who violate laws and disciplines, and are involved in gangs and drugs."

"At the meeting, China Film Group Chairman La Peikang took the lead in speaking out, suggesting strict treatment and appropriate restrictions on the performing careers of such public figures. State-owned enterprises, including Shanghai Film Group and Xi'an Film Group, agreed."

"Huayi, Bona, Orange Sky, Alibaba and other major performing arts associations believe that those who violate laws and disciplines can be dealt with strictly and severely, but they should also be given a chance to reform, rather than being indiscriminate and slamming them all!"

"Director Chen Fei and a group of directors and partners under Feiyue Films proposed to implement a comprehensive ban on artists involved in drug-related, gang-related and other bad records, depriving them of the right to continue to appear in front of the public."

"Pan Asia Cinemas and Wanda Cinemas will ban the screening of films starring artists with bad records, which has been strictly opposed by Huayi, Bona and other companies!"

"..."

As the related news spread rapidly, the entertainment industry was in chaos for a while.

Actors, stars, directors, producers, screenwriters and other practitioners who were not qualified to attend the conference all felt a chill down their spines.

Many small brokerage companies have even held meetings to strictly require their artists to control themselves and not be used as examples.

We are not stupid. The fact that the higher-ups can hold such a meeting already shows that they are preparing to take action.

No matter how the knife cuts, it's better to stay away from it.

As for those who have committed crimes and are still active in the circle, they can't wait to rush to Feiyue Film and Television and tear Chen Fei apart.

"Kill us all! This is a total annihilation! There's no way out for us!"

Many people expressed strong protest, but did not dare to speak out loudly.

After all... the one who wants to ban them completely is Chen Fei. He is no ordinary person. He is a big boss with top capital, a top director, and also the president of a theater chain. He holds the lifelines of most people working in the film and television industry in a firm control!

Compared to the various objections in the circle, netizens are now all excited and unable to control themselves:

"Support Director Chen Fei! Justice is never absent. Banning bad artists is a powerful way to safeguard public values. Artists, as public figures, should assume corresponding social responsibilities!"

"Bad behavior cannot be tolerated. Banning it is a necessary measure to maintain the health of the industry and purify social atmosphere. I fully agree!"

"In the prosperous entertainment industry, we should stick to the moral bottom line, ban bad artists, and set a positive example for young people. This is of great significance!"

"Support the ban, so that every hard-working and morally upright artist can get the respect and opportunities they deserve, and jointly create a good entertainment environment."

"Artists with bad records not only damage their own image, but also hurt the feelings of fans and the public. Banning them is a warning against wrong behavior and a response to public expectations."

"Behind the glamour, there should be noble morals to support it. How could there be people who oppose the ban? This is something I never expected."

"Why can't we give them a few more chances? Is it really okay to just ruin their careers like this?"

"The one above, before you say that, why don't you come with me to Babaoshan and see if those anti-drug heroes agree to give them a chance?"

"Great! Great job!"

……

Netizens were arguing, shouting, and supporting Chen Fei's proposal at the meeting to ban all artists with bad records from the entire Internet. At this time, other companies and related people in the industry who held opposing opinions were also not resting.

Not long after the news came out, a large number of press releases and posts appeared on the Internet.

Without exception, all of them are used to whitewash and refute!
Although no one has explicitly expressed opposition to the ban, it can be seen from the content of these press releases that most people have expressed doubts.

There were even posts saying that Chen Fei’s proposal was too inhumane!
"The book also says that it is a great virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them. Why can't we give these people a chance? In fact, most people who make mistakes don't consciously intend to make mistakes, but simply go astray. Should we condemn them all for this? And many of them are just children! What do they know..."

When he received the call from Weibo, Chen Fei was still busy revising the script.

He casually visited a portal website and took a quick look at the press releases used to "refute" and "whitewash" the incident, and found them extremely funny.

They even used remarks like “they are just children”. It is obvious that they are trying to win sympathy and gradually manipulate public opinion!

Chen Fei did not make any response to this.

As I said, let the bullets fly for a while.

He closed the portal and started to modify the script again.

……

In the blink of an eye, a new day has arrived quietly.

Because the online attention has been absorbed by other topics, after "Tiny Times 3" was taken off the screen, the daily box office of "See You Tomorrow" also dropped to 115 million.

As a fan movie, even though it has a good reputation, it still couldn't hold up at the box office and has already been announced to be cancelled.

And that "Dragon Nest: Dawn Rider" unfortunately ended up with a figure of less than 5714 million.

As for other domestic films, they are so bad that no news website is willing to report on them.

But imported films are still standing strong.

The box office of "Transformers 4" is still moving forward steadily, the box office of "Guardians of the Galaxy" has exceeded 4 million, and even the action movie "District 1" starring Paul Walker has exceeded million.

There is another "Frozen" waiting to be released. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be another crushing victory for domestic films.

After a night of fermentation, the number of press releases online did not decrease, but instead increased!

Many young people whose minds are not yet mature have been really fooled and gradually accepted sayings such as "there is nothing better than to admit one's mistakes and correct them" and "a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold."

However, just when the wind direction was about to be successfully reversed, a notice released on the official Weibo account of "Safe Capital" directly made all the efforts made by many "opposition parties" go to waste!
