Started as an independent producer in 1988

Chapter 378 The first shot of counterattack!
The sunshine in early spring is very warm and feels warm on people.

Chen Shiping walked out of the Huaxia Distribution Company and looked at Assistant Li's departing back, and couldn't help but sneer.

I'll go deal with them right away, it's really annoying to be in the movie.

It has been a tangled mess for the past few years. If we don’t severely punish Shanghai Film Group, those people from Hollywood will continue to test us!
There are also people who want to surrender, kneel on the ground and call daddy.

Chen Shiping wants to do it for everyone to see.

Anyone who dares to collude with Hollywood to go against China Film Group will be beaten to death!
In the past, they thought that they were all brother factories and could give them some face, but Chen Shiping no longer wants to give them face and must make an example of them.

At this time, Chen Shiping turned his head and looked at Han Lao San who followed him out and asked, "What are the recent plans of Shanghai Film Studio?"

Han Lao San immediately said, "There are no major moves, but I heard that there are several movie shooting plans. However, the projects are confidential, so you have to go to the bureau to check the records to find out."

Chen Shiping nodded and said, "Then go check it out and report to me as soon as possible."

"Okay Mr. Chen, I'll go now."

After Han Laosan agreed, he said goodbye to Chen Shiping and took a car to the bureau.

Sitting in the car, he glanced at Chen Shiping through the rearview mirror.

He felt a murderous aura from Chen Shiping's words just now.

I have endured being on the screen for so long, and now I finally can’t bear it anymore!

There will be some good stuff to watch in the film industry this year!
Han Laosan always felt that Chen Shiping was a little soft-hearted when it came to Shanghai Film Group's affairs.

In his opinion, they should be beaten down harshly. Some people are bullying them and they are still enduring it!
It is easy to obtain Shanghai Film Group’s filing information and to launch a counterattack.

But this is not the most important thing!
Han Laosan still remembers the story of the Teng father and son.

Their movie is scheduled to be released in April.

This is the first shot to hit Shangying!
This shot was fired by Han Laosan, so he had to shoot beautifully!
After Han Laosan got the registration information from the bureau, he immediately returned to the group.

After handing this information to Chen Shiping, he started talking about the father and son of the Teng family.

Chen Shiping frowned slightly and said, "Send it in, and let Shanghai Film Group pay for it. These are my two requests."

He paused for a moment, looked at Han Lao San and said, “All the actors who participated in the movie starring the Teng family and his son are implicitly banned.

Let’s see who dares to cooperate with Shanghai Film Group in the future!
Han Laosan immediately nodded and agreed. This is what China Film Group should do!

Kill them!

But it’s a bit of a waste to ban him, I’ll send someone to contact him later.

How did she become the heroine? Was she forced to accept some unspoken rules?

If you want to do something, you have to do it ruthlessly!
At this time, the father and son of the Shanghai Teng family were discussing publicity and promotion matters with the publicity team of Shanghai Film Group.

They shot an art film, so naturally it was impossible for them to achieve much success at the box office.

So they set their sights on film festivals. Shanghai Film Group is now in contact with many foreign companies, and they want to use these foreign companies to get their films into foreign film festivals!
It’s a pity that I can’t participate in the Asian International Film Festival next month, otherwise I would have been able to make a big splash!
What a pity.

They don't get along with Chen Shiping, so the International Asian Film Festival won't let them be shortlisted at all.

Shanghai Film Group would not agree to let them participate in the film festival led by Chen Shiping.

That's not a sign of surrender!

The father and son of the Teng family are no longer Fan Yuqi!

So let’s focus on foreign film festivals.

No matter how great the Asian Film Festival is, there are still film festivals that can compare to it.

If it can get the Golden Globe Awards in the United States, it will be no worse than the Asian International Film Festival.

Cannes and Venice are better, but if that doesn't work, the Tokyo International Film Festival is also good.

And I will be able to participate in the Shanghai International Film Festival in October, where I will definitely win an award.

Teng Huatao was so happy that he was just waiting for his debut work to win an award at an international film festival and become famous overnight!
Both Tang's father and son wanted to win something at the film festival, and they also expressed their ideas to the group.

Shanghai Film Group also agreed, because the previous Emergency Landing was lost to the Day After Tomorrow, and morale within the group was low.

Now they need something to keep up appearances. If they can’t beat variety shows at the box office, then they should just win more awards.

It's more or less a consolation!
The Teng father and son were still dreaming here, having no idea that a disaster was about to happen.

The distribution department of Shanghai Film Group also discovered a very strange phenomenon.

That is, all theaters are not at all opposed to the two films by the Teng father and son.

All of them were given good screening schedules.

Assistant Li thought this was normal and believed that it was all his own credit.

Previously, because of the film introduction issue, he had become very close to representatives of theater chains in various provinces, so it was normal for everyone to give him some face.

Although the introduction of the film failed, there were still some gains.

At least I have become closer to these theater representatives in terms of personal connections.

Soon it was April.

The two films by the Teng father and son were released one after another. Shanghai Film Group did a lot of publicity and invited many celebrities to cheer for them.

Chen Shiping couldn't help sneering when reading these propaganda in the newspaper. He put down the newspaper and called Han Laosan.

"How's the situation? Did the actresses agree?"

Han Laosan immediately said: "It's done, they also got some "evidence"."

"Then let's get ready and start. Just looking at them gives me a headache. Let's get them in as soon as possible!" Chen Shiping said and hung up the phone.

On the other side, Han Laosan smacked his lips. Mr. Chen was a little anxious. It seemed that the murderous intent was really strong!
We definitely can’t do anything now, we have to wait a little longer until the box office of the two movies is higher!
The film by Teng and his son has a high screening rate because of its good publicity and promotion.

Both films achieved very good box office results after their release.

The combined box office of the two films in just two weeks has exceeded 15 million!
In addition, both films were shortlisted for foreign film festivals.

Teng Wenji's film was shortlisted for this year's Cannes Film Festival and he will go to Cannes in May to receive the award.
Deng Huatao's films were shortlisted for the Singapore International Film Festival and the Tokyo International Film Festival.

Although the box office of the two movies is not very high, it is already very good for art films.

In addition, both films were shortlisted for international film festivals, so Shanghai Film Group has been promoting them very vigorously.

Almost every few days, you can see news about these two movies in the newspapers, as well as interviews with the Teng father and son.

In these interviews, the Teng father and son would always talk about the cold reception they received when they were studying at the Beijing Film Academy. Anyway, they would always say bad things about them!
The media is also very interested in these things, and if they want to hype something they need topics.

Everyone knows what the conflict between the Teng father and son and China Film Group is. Since the Teng father and son are not afraid of death and dare to speak out, the media will naturally not be polite.

Shanghai Film Group is also using its media connections to help the Teng family father and son hype up the company. Of course, the most important thing is that they want to use the Teng family father and son to slap the face of China Film Group and Chen Shiping!

At this time in the office of China Film, Han Laosan couldn't help but sneer when he saw the box office data of the two movies, but he felt that the box office was still too low and should be higher.

When the time comes, let them pay more. If they can’t afford it, they will have to spend the rest of their lives in jail!

Han Laosan waited for a few more days, and when the cumulative box office of the two films exceeded 20 million, he immediately took action.

The legal department of China Film Group took the archives and data of the Beijing Film Studio and filed a lawsuit for infringement, demanding compensation for losses in a very high amount, and also demanding that the two films be taken off the screen immediately.

Han Laosan was not idle either. He contacted the media and held a press conference as soon as possible!

"Both plays by the Teng family and his son are plagiarized!"

"These two scripts belonged to the studio, but after leaving the Beijing Film Studio, the Teng family continued to use these two scripts for filming. This is a very serious infringement case!"

As soon as Han Laosan's words came out, the reporters were instantly excited. China Film was finally going to fight back.

And they made such a big deal right from the start, they directly filed a lawsuit!
Shanghai Film Studio also received the news at this time, and they were all stunned when they learned that Han Laosan was going to sue them for infringement.

No, this script is from your Beijing Film Studio?

Didn’t the Teng family father and son say that this was their script?
Damn it, a big idiot and a small idiot, now they are in big trouble!
Shanghai Film Studio sent Assistant Li to handle this matter.

He immediately found the Teng father and son to inquire about the specific situation.

In the office where the Teng father and son were sitting, many people were trying to comfort them.

Teng Wenji was still cursing and accusing China Film Group of slander.

When Assistant Li came over, he didn't listen to his complaints and asked directly, "Are these two scripts yours or the Beijing Film Studio's?"

Teng Wenji immediately said, "I asked someone to write this script back then. How could it be from the Beijing Film Studio? Han Laosan is slandering us! I'm going to sue him!"

At this moment, Teng Huatao looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Assistant Li didn't listen to the old man. He turned his head and looked at Teng Huatao and asked, "Huatao, tell me what's going on?"

Teng Huatao swallowed his saliva and said, "At the beginning, both scripts were submitted and both were approved, but they were rejected at the last minute and not filmed. At that time, we both received royalties from the studio.

Theoretically, these two scripts are already assets of the studio."

When Assistant Li heard this, he immediately wanted to curse.

What the fuck is theoretically?

You have taken the money, so the script must belong to someone else!

It’s the freedom of Beijing Film Studio to shoot or not!
But the ownership of the script is already very clear!
Just as they were discussing what to do, another person came running over and shouted:
"Oh no! Lao Teng and his gang have been sued again!"

"Again?" Assistant Li turned his head and looked at the man and said, "What do you mean? Explain it clearly!"

The visitor adjusted his breathing and said breathlessly:
"The heroines of the two movies have accused them of sexual harassment and forcing them to do sexual transactions. The police have already filed a case and are now downstairs."

After hearing this, Assistant Li couldn't help but curse.

Even the well-mannered turtle used swear words, so you can imagine how angry he was in his heart.

The father and son of the Teng family are simply two scums, they are more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything!
At this time, the Teng father and son were already panicking. They didn't expect that those actresses would dare to sue them!
Teng Wenji immediately stood up and said angrily: "This is slander, nonsense!"

Others looked at Lao Teng's ugly face and couldn't help cursing in their hearts, "What the hell are you pretending to be? Everyone knows what kind of scum you are!"
Teng Huatao was so frightened that he was completely speechless at this point.

I sat there slumped over and kept repeating, "It's over, it's over, it's over."

Teng Wenji was annoyed by his nagging and turned around and slapped him.

The crisp sound of slapping echoed throughout the office.

At this time, the policeman who had just pushed the door in looked at this scene, snorted coldly, and said to them: "Who are Teng Wenji and Teng Huatao?"

Assistant Li sighed tiredly, pointed at the Teng family father and son and said, "That's them, take them away, the group will also cooperate with your work, you can tell us at any time if you have any needs."

Assistant Li's mind worked quickly, he knew this matter was not that simple.

It must be China Film Group behind the scenes, so the Teng father and son are definitely not going to be saved.

All we can do now is to make drastic measures and cut off all ties with them as soon as possible!

At least in terms of public opinion, they must stand on the side of the masses!
At this time, the news outside had already spread like wildfire, and various media newspapers and even online portals had reported this series of events.

The news headlines are also particularly eye-catching.

[The biggest scandal in the entertainment industry, the criminal history of the Teng family father and son]

[Unspoken rules, sexual assault, copyright infringement, the biggest scum in the entertainment industry! ]

In public opinion, these two people have been labeled and are not waiting for the legal verdict.

At this time, all theaters also received a notice to stop showing the two films starring the Teng family and his son.

China Film Group sued them for copyright infringement and demanded that their films be removed from shelves, and also notified all major film festivals to disqualify their films from being nominated.

Not only that, they also demanded Shanghai Film Group to compensate for the losses, totaling 20 million!

After Shanghai Film Studio received the news, they all got up and started cursing!

What kind of crappy script is worth 20 million?!
China Film Group is asking for too much!
Damn it, even if I fight the lawsuit for three to five years, I still can’t get this much money!
They have already lost a lot of money investing in two movies, and now they are still losing money. Shanghai Film Group should just go bankrupt!

In just two days, this series of events happened, making many people realize one thing, that is, China Film Group is going to kill Shanghai Film Group!
Many film companies that originally wanted to cooperate with Shanghai Film Group now hesitated.

If they go forward at this time, will China Film Corporation think that they are supporting Shanghai Film Group?

When the time comes, we will just crush them to death.

In the office of China Film Corporation, Chen Shiping was watching the news and smiling happily.

That's what we want to do. Kill the Teng father and son, and then create a big trouble for Shanghai Film Group.

Then drag them to death little by little!

Han Laosan, who was sitting opposite Chen Shiping, said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, I heard that many companies that were planning to cooperate with Shanghai Film Group have cancelled their cooperation."

"They run fast."

Han Lao San smiled and said, "China Film Group has a strong deterrent effect. I will contact a few more companies privately and spread the news."

Chen Shiping nodded and said, "We will go back and support Xiying and Changying and start more cooperation. We can't let others think that we are too domineering to eat alone."

"Okay, then should the Teng family father and son kill them or just let it be?" Han Lao San couldn't help but ask.

"Let them retire in there and use their sewing machines to make up for their mistakes."

"Okay, then give up on the reconciliation and definitely send them to the sewing machine!"
