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

Chapter 820 What is fairness? Fairness is only in the hands of those who have power! The worst movie in history is here!

"Mr. Jiang, Anle's stock price has hit the limit down!"

"Boss Jiang, Wanda is adjusting the screening schedule for Monster Hunt!"

"Boss Jiang, several major shareholders have called us, questioning what the hell we are up to."

"Boss Jiang, managers of several cinemas where Enlight's cinemas are located called us and wanted to terminate the contract with us."

"Boss Jiang, shareholders are all expressing dissatisfaction, and the public's opinion of Anle has plummeted."

……

In just a few hours, with the two announcements from Feiyue Pictures and Pan Asia Cinemas, Enlight Pictures was thrown into complete chaos.

For theaters, if movies produced by Feiyue Films will not be shown in their theaters in the future, the loss of profits will be immeasurable!
You know, if a cinema does not have any popular films showing, it will undoubtedly lose a large number of people.

Nothing may be seen in the short term, but in the long run, as the flow of people decreases, it will even directly affect the revenue of the shopping mall where the cinema is located.

This loss is even much greater than the loss of cinemas!
Although this deficit can be made up by imported blockbusters, how many imported blockbusters can there be in a year?
And the most important thing is that not every imported blockbuster makes money. Losses are the norm, and there are only a few that can actually make money.

After talking about the losses in cinemas, let’s turn to look at the losses in the production business, which can only be described as “astronomical”!

A cinema chain that ranks first in the country in terms of the number of businesses and theaters has stopped showing movies from a certain film and television production company. This is a complete disaster for the film company!

Not to mention far away, just in Hong Kong, almost all the cinemas in Hong Kong have been booked by Pan Asia.

Think about it, a movie that was made with so much effort and money invested can only be shown in one or two theaters. What kind of return is this? What kind of money is this?
At this point, Jiang Zhiqiang could no longer remain calm.

"Quick! Call Feiyue Films and Pan Asia Cinemas. No matter what conditions they put forward, we can meet them!"

"Boss Jiang, it's useless. When we called them, they ignored us."

"What?" Jiang Zhiqiang's face suddenly changed. He regretted and became a little angry: "How could they do this? This is malicious business competition!"

He took out his cell phone and was about to make a call, but then he changed his mind and put the phone down again.

"Quick! Prepare the car! I want to go to the airport, I want to go to the General Administration, I want to report Feiyue Films and Pan Asia Cinema Line for malicious commercial competition and suppressing our Fang Chunliang..."

The situation at Enlight Pictures was in complete chaos, and the domestic film and television and media circles were also in chaos at this time.

It is no exaggeration to say that at this stage, almost all domestic media are contacting Chen Fei, wanting him to come forward and respond.

Everyone knew clearly in their minds that the order was definitely issued by him and could not have been issued by anyone else.

However, as soon as the call was made, all I got was the feedback prompt tone "The number you dialed is powered off."

At this moment, everyone wished they could grow wings and fly directly to England to meet him on the set of Ready Player One!
"This guy is so cunning. He is overseas but he has been controlling the mainland remotely. He himself has never shown up and has completely stayed out of the matter..."

"I always thought he would be unable to defeat Edko Films, but I didn't expect that! I really didn't expect that! It's so awesome!"

"This move is to cut off the firewood from the bottom, and it is designed to make you sacrifice the rook to save the king!"

"Let's go. Since we can't stop him in person, can't we go to Feiyue Film and Television? Let's go find Su Guohai."

"That's right, we must get first-hand information!"

……

"How cruel! Really cruel! A fatal blow!"

At China Film, La Peikang could no longer remain calm after reading the announcement online.

Perhaps what others saw was a series of operations carried out by Feiyue Films and Pan Asia Cinemas against Enlight, but what he saw was that Chen Fei directly uprooted Enlight Pictures!

The fact that all exclusive, co-produced, and co-controlled movies will no longer be shown in theaters under Enlight has sentenced the 17 cinemas in those 29 cities to death.

Everyone knows that the movies produced by Feiyue Films are famous for their high quality. As long as Chen Fei opens the door, who wouldn't want to invest?

But this investment is equivalent to standing on Chen Fei's side.

The same goes for cinemas. From now on, any movie invested by Enlight will not be allowed to be released. Isn't this simply pushing Enlight onto an isolated island!

Under such circumstances, who would dare to take the risk to cooperate with Emperor Entertainment Group?

On the sofa opposite the desk, Han Sanping crossed his legs with an expression of expected response on his face.

"This Jiang Zhiqiang is also stupid. When the incident happened, couldn't you just apologize directly? Why did you have to make it to this point, losing both your wife and your army?"

"The General Administration should intervene, right?" La Peikang said uncertainly.

"Interfere? Interfere with what?" Han Sanping looked at him calmly, "If you are beaten, you must stand at attention. If you don't show your attitude this time, everyone who comes here will have to interfere in the theater. What's the point of playing?"

"But, this already involves unfair business competition, right?"

"Haha." Han Sanping curled her lips and said, "There are no specific implementation measures and cases in this regard in China. Even the higher-ups are crossing the river by feeling the stones.

Now that Chen Fei has taken the initiative to sanction Anle Pictures, the higher-ups will definitely hold a meeting to discuss the matter, but it's still unknown when the final decision will be made. Can Anle afford to wait?"

"So this time, Anle is powerless to save the situation?"

"Pei Kang? Why do I feel like you've been doing some stupid things recently? Are Anle and Feiyue Films comparable? Can't you tell who to favor?"

La Peikang: “…”

~

If the situation at Emperor Entertainment Group is a big mess, then the situation at Huayi Film Group is just a small mess.

"This kid! How could he do this? If he does this, our profits will definitely be affected."

Wang Zhonglei frowned and looked at the news online, his face full of dissatisfaction.

However, Wang Zhongjun was not as angry as him. Instead, he said with emotion: "Business competition is like this. If you don't make a move, it's fine. But once you make a move, it's a killer move. Jiang Zhiqiang's loss this time is not unfair. If you don't have the strength, don't jump around. It's better to admit defeat as soon as possible."

Not to mention Emperor Entertainment Group, even a domestic leader and listed company like Huayi can't withstand such a turmoil!
"The higher-ups will probably take action, right? This is too big a fuss."

"The higher-ups? Why did the higher-ups take action? They favored Edko Films once because it was Hong Kong-funded and a meritorious company, but why did they favor it a second time?"

"You also said that Jiang Zhiqiang is a meritorious official..."

"Haha, when it comes to heroes, isn't Chen Fei one of them? He has won the three major European films, Oscars, many Sino-foreign co-productions, and is the world's top commercial film box office. His contribution is no less than Jiang Zhiqiang's."

"Brother, why do you keep talking to him?"

"I plan to invite him to participate in the investment of I Am Not Madame Bovary."

"Ah? Why? How can we let him make money from us..."

"For the stock price! For the market value!"

Hearing this, Wang Zhonglei suddenly fell silent.

The A-share market has been falling for a whole month, and Huayi's market value has dropped from 900 billion to 450 billion, and is still falling.

More positive news is indeed needed to stimulate the stock price.

If we can reach a cooperation with Feiyue Film and Television, it will undoubtedly be great news!

Although they have been promoting "de-monopolization of movies", they still cannot do without movies when it comes to times of crisis. After all, they are still a film and television company, and this is their real foundation.

Of course, once the stock price goes up again, the situation will be completely different.

……

Three and a half hours later, Jiang Zhiqiang rushed to the General Administration from Hong Kong again.

The General Administration had actually already gone off work at this time, but Tong Gang still chose to wait for him in the office. After all, the other party was a "hero" and should have some special treatment.

"Director Tong! You have to make the decision for me! Enlightenment Pictures has suffered from unfair commercial competition..."

As soon as he entered the room, Jiang Zhiqiang started to cry. Tong Gang looked at him expressionlessly and asked, "What do you think is unfair?"

"At noon today, Feiyue Films and Pan Asia Cinema Line issued a notice, one of which said that future films produced will no longer be shown in our cinemas under the Anle brand..."

Before he could finish, Tong Gang interrupted him and said, "This is Feiyue Films' own decision. The General Administration has no right to interfere. Besides, the industry produces so many movies every year. It's not like you don't have any movies to show, right?"

Jiang Zhiqiang was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting such an answer.

"Then Pan Asia Cinemas..."

"This is what you have brought upon yourself. How do you want me to manage this? Force the theaters to continue showing your movies? And then let you play tricks on the box office?"

Tong Gang was a little disappointed, "You guys are the ones who caused this situation. If the show had been run according to the rules, would there be this result?
Besides, you've found the wrong person. I can't control your private competition. The people you should be looking for now are Feiyue Films and Chen Fei. If he doesn't forgive you, no one else can help."

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Zhiqiang's already pale face turned even paler.

How easy is it to get Chen Fei's forgiveness?
This time, Edko Films really failed! It was such a tragic failure! It was so painful!
He had always thought that Chen Fei was just a young man, and he could easily control him with just a few words and a few tricks.

But now it seems that it is a big tiger!
An old company like Enlightenment Pictures is no match for him.

"That's right. Huaxiaxing and Xiang family offended him and were both delisted and bankrupted by him. How much stronger can Anle be than Huaxiaxing?"

……

After a good sleep, Chen Fei got up and turned on his cell phone.

After simply replying to a few text messages and phone calls, he started to look through the trending searches on Weibo.

"Yesterday, Feiyue Films and Pan Asia Cinemas officially implemented a 'ban' operation on Edko Films, causing the latter's stock price to plummet and the situation was bleak."

"At the request of the General Administration, Anle Pictures released an apology letter..."

"The film Sicario, produced exclusively by Feiyue Films, has officially withdrawn from all theaters under Edko Films today."

"The movie "Jianbing Man", a blockbuster film from the "Diaosi Men" series directed and starred by Dong Chengpeng and produced by Sohu, officially broke the 10 billion box office today.

Warm congratulations to Director Dong Chengpeng for joining the 10 billion movie box office club!"

"The film "Breaking Wind", which is controlled by Evergrande Film and co-produced by Yinghuang, iQiyi, Huace and other film and television companies, has officially announced that the film premiere ceremony will be held on the 30th of this month."

"..."

There was a lot of mixed news online, so Chen Fei picked out a few hot topics and took a look.

He also glanced at the apology letter from Enlight Pictures. As expected, it contained long paragraphs of official statements without any sincerity at all.

In addition, the news that "The Pancake Man" broke the 10 billion box office is also very hot!
However, although everyone in the circle was congratulating him, the Internet was full of ridicule.

It is quite remarkable that a bad movie could reach a box office of 10 billion just by relying on the factor of "black and red".

At the same time, a Weibo post about Feng Xiaogang also became a hot topic.

Perhaps to help promote the Huayi-produced film "A Tale of Two Cities", he specifically @ed Tang Wei on Weibo, not only bringing up the incident about "Lust, Caution" many years ago, but also mocking certain departments for bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

On the other hand, Tang Wei was not as bold as him. He simply responded with "The hardships of life are over" and then fell silent.

There are a lot of people watching the excitement online, but not many people actually pay attention to the movie.

The film was released for 6 days and the total box office didn't even break 5000 million. This shows how bad it was!

……

The filming of "Ready Player One" has entered the second half. For two consecutive days, Chen Fei stopped paying attention to the news on the Internet, and sometimes he even returned to the hotel very late.

So, Liu Yifei became his "intelligence collector".

Time flew by and it was the last day of July. As soon as Chen Fei returned to the hotel, Miss Liu took a piece of A7 paper and started today's report.

"Jiang Zhiqiang sent an apology letter to your mailbox, wanting to negotiate with you. I dragged the email into the trash can as you instructed.

There are only 5 days left for the box office of "Eternal Love". I am still number one among the film's leading actresses. Hehe, Tiantian has surpassed Changchang and is now number two.

"The Crossing: Part Two" and "The Lady of Dynasty: Yang Guifei" were both released today, but you are not allowed to watch the latter one, as it is not suitable for people like you who have a girlfriend.

"Fated" was forced to be withdrawn from the screen, and the box office was only 5125 million, which is really tragic..."

Miss Liu talked a lot, but Chen Fei only paid attention to "The Woman of Dynasty: Yang Guifei" and didn't let him read this sentence.

“Why can’t I watch this movie?”

"Oh! You can't watch it, so why are you asking so many questions? Be careful or I'll make you sleep on the sofa tonight."

"Ok."

With great curiosity, after dinner, Chen Fei went into the bedroom at Liu Yifei's urging and started tonight's double exercise.

The next morning, Fade Chen got up more than half an hour earlier than usual.

After the usual kiss goodbye, he went out, got in the car, and opened Weibo immediately.

"I want to see, why can't I watch this movie? It's already been released, is there something else...oh shit?"

At this moment, the word "screen lightning" is the most appropriate to describe Chen Fei's current mood!

He never expected that Shi Qing + Zhang Yimou + Tian Zhuangzhuang could actually shoot such a "bold" shot!

The internet has completely exploded at this moment!
Looking around, two words began to appear frequently in the reviews of the movie "Yang Guifei: The Lady of Dynasty" - horse shock!
"Wow! I never thought that Li Ming and Fan Bingbing could actually do something like 'horse sex'. It's so awesome. How did they do it?"

"I've learned something new. It just so happens that when a horse runs, it bumps around. Isn't this a natural bed?"

"Hahaha, the screenwriter is so talented!"

"Oh, Fan Bingbing's little appearance is so tempting. He is charming and lustful, resisting but also a little eager. Add to that the posture, the panting, and the rolling roundness that is like the finishing touch... It's amazing! It's really amazing!"

"Li Chen, I will never forgive you!"

"So Fan Bingbing looked like that after he passed away. I am so happy. I didn't expect to see the goddess look like this again."

"..."

Naturally, there is no screening of "Yang Guifei: The Lady of Dynasty" in the UK, but thoughtful netizens deliberately posted this part of the horse-shaking scene online, which really opened Chen Fei's eyes.

The movie grossed 2835 million on its first day, and in his opinion, the horse-shaking scene alone was worth 2000 million!
As for the rest of the plot, judging by the reviews, it seems to be just so-so, without any major highlights.

After appreciating this shot, Chen Fei went to watch the movie "The Crossing: Part Two" which was released at the same time.

In order to celebrate the release of this movie, Wu Yu even ran out of his "old nest" and accepted media interviews.

"After watching The Crossing: Part Two, you will understand my good intentions. This movie will surely become a pearl in the history of Chinese-language films in due course..."

However, this "pearl" only received 6.6% of the screenings and earned 627 million at the box office on the first day of its release.

As soon as the data came out, Wu Yu fell silent.

And looking at the Internet, there is already a lot of angry curses:
"A large part of the second part of the book is a flashback to the first part. It's terrible, really terrible!"

"It ended so abruptly. The first part still gave people something to look forward to, but the second part is such a complete mess."

"Finally I'm on board. My heart is finally broken. This is a shitty movie, as expected!"

"It's just a shipwreck imitation show. The way of thinking of the people who made it is so weird. It really wants to show the law of the jungle, but the movie thinking is also collective thinking and broad-minded thinking. It's a mess."

"The whole movie is a replay, replay, and replay. I watched the second part because of the first one, and thought there would be new developments, but who knew it was all replays. If you can't make a good movie, don't waste your time, money and manpower. Get out as soon as possible."

After reading the film reviews, Chen Fei no longer needs to watch the videos posted by netizens or the finished film.

If nothing unexpected happens, this movie will surely become a "shitty movie in history" on par with "Red Cliff", "The Promise", "Nanjing! Nanjing!", "The Banquet" and so on!
