Started as an independent producer in 1988

Chapter 389: Be strong when you need to be strong!
In the quiet room, Chen Shiping ate breakfast silently.

Cantonese breakfast is really good, much better than the snacks in Beijing.

While eating breakfast, Chen Shiping turned his head to look at Fan Bingbing who was standing beside him obediently.

"You are so proactive, what do you think?"

"I just want to admire you and learn more from you." Fan Bingbing smiled sweetly.

Chen Shiping chuckled and said, "Okay, you can sign up for the China Film Academy's recruitment exam this year. It's not that difficult."

Fan Bingbing: "." He is indeed a big shot! His mind is so active!
Chen Shiping wiped his mouth and said, "Okay, I know what you're thinking, but I'm busy lately and don't have time to play with you."

Fan Bingbing was silent for a moment and quietly went to clean up the dishes.

After she had packed up, she looked at Chen Shiping and smiled gently, saying, "I've been here the past few days. If you need anything, you can always come to me."

"Well, it's been hard today." Chen Shiping said calmly, then sat there drinking tea without saying anything.

Fan Bingbing hesitated for a moment and added, "Is it because of what happened yesterday? I was too talkative yesterday and you couldn't vent your anger. Why don't you scold me?"

Chen Shiping was startled for a moment, turned his head and looked at her and asked, "You are only nineteen this year, right?"

"Yes, nineteen years old." Fan Bingbing said in a low voice.

Chen Shiping couldn't help but sigh, he is indeed a talented person.

Seeing that Chen Shiping didn't say anything, Fan Bingbing continued, "Yesterday's incident wasn't a big deal. The chairman of Zhuying was also here. If you get angry, it will be bad. You should let other people investigate."

Chen Shiping couldn't help but laugh, and she also gave an idea.

But she didn't understand what was going on.

"Okay, there are some things you don't understand, get out."

"Okay, call me if you need anything. I'll be at 8813."

Fan Bingbing went out with the food tray and closed the door before leaving.

Chen Shiping sat there and couldn't help shaking his head. Although the little girl was smart, she was too anxious.

Sometimes you can't be too anxious. Chen Shiping was suddenly stunned.

No, this matter really needs to be done urgently!
He couldn't help but stand up and look at the water view outside, and slowly an idea came into his mind.

This matter really needs to be made public. The cinema chains must be severely warned, as well as those with bad intentions.

Hit a punch, lest a hundred punches come!

Otherwise, it would be annoying to death if someone keeps doing something behind your back!
Sometimes being a little impulsive is not a bad thing!
Before I get promoted to the position of chairman, I will take one last drastic measure!
Once I actually become the chairman of the board, I won't be so strong anymore. At that time I can take into account the development of the entire industry and do it slowly.

Now he is only the vice president and has not shown his toughness for several years.

I can't be so tactful this time, otherwise no one will be afraid of him anymore.

They probably all thought that he was going to be promoted, so they didn't dare to make any drastic moves, which is why these people act so recklessly!

After Chen Shiping figured it out, he put the teacup in his hand heavily on the table and called Han Laosan directly.

"You organize an investigation team now to thoroughly check all the cinema chains in the country. If you find any theater with inflated ticket prices, suspend the digital upgrade and report it to the police for fines!"

"This action must be high-profile! It must produce results! It must be forceful!"

Chen Shiping's words immediately shocked Han Laosan on the other end of the phone. What was going on?
This should be organized and led by the bureau.

Grandma has legs!
This is just a joke!
This is asking him to offend people!
Mr. Chen, I have followed you for so long. It’s fine that you cheated Mr. Tong, but why are you cheating me too?
Han Laosan hung up the phone angrily, feeling a little melancholy.

He originally came out to avoid trouble, who would have thought that he would find trouble for himself.

Once something happens, there is no way to avoid it.

After Chen Shiping hung up the phone with Han Laosan, he called Mei Juan again.

"Meijuan, please write a report on how actors' salaries should not be too high and submit it. I want to standardize the salaries in the industry."

Mei Juan was stunned for a moment and said, "Master, many actors are getting discounts when they participate in China Film's movies. Isn't that bad?"

"What's the point of giving us a discount? The salary offer for some actors is over tens of millions! How many companies can afford them to make a movie? How many can afford the cost? How many movies can guarantee a profit?!"

Chen Shiping said sternly: "Just think about what the final result will be if things continue like this!"

Mei Juan didn't expect Chen Shiping to suddenly get angry. She subconsciously shrank her neck, as if she was back to the time when she was scolded a few years ago.

I haven't been scolded like this in several years.

Mei Juan quickly said, "I understand, Master. Don't be angry. Anger is harmful to your health."

"Don't call me Master when we're talking about work. I've told you so many times."

Chen Shiping's tone softened as he said, "The theaters have secretly raised their prices, and the actors' pay has skyrocketed. You should think carefully about the internal connection. Now that you are the acting director, you must also keep up with the vision and pattern."

"Okay, I'll study it carefully."

"Well, hang up, report the matter as soon as possible."

After Chen Shiping finished speaking, he hung up the phone and couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows.

Once you do these two things, you will really become the target of public criticism.

If someone is stirring up trouble behind the scenes, the cinema chains will protest, the actors will also be dissatisfied, and they may even leave for Hollywood and refuse to star in China Film Group's films.

By then, maybe Hollywood will be happy.

Chen Shiping now wants to go back to the capital.

But after thinking about it, I decided to just let it go and let things ferment for a few days.

We have to complete the cross-strait and Hong Kong film art exchange conference and reach a consensus with Hong Kong and Taiwan.

It’s easy to deal with the Hong Kong side, as the Silver Capital Organization will definitely cooperate, but it’s hard to say about the Taiwan side.

Try to fight for it.

Taiwan also wants to protect local films.

Chen Shiping was not in the mood to stay here any longer, so he went straight to Hong Kong!
At this time, Fan Bingbing in another room didn't know that Chen Shiping had already packed up and left.

I was still in the room thinking about what excuse I could come up with to go over there later.

Chen Shiping has no intention of hooking up with the little girl now.

After arriving in Xiangjiang, we went directly to the Art Center.

Things are not peaceful in the mainland either.

Under the reluctant and thorough investigation of President Tong, China Film Corporation began to clean up its internal corruption problems.

Han Laosan also returned to the capital and began to set up an investigation team.

When Director Tong heard the news, he was shocked. Is Chen Heizi so pessimistic?

Are you going to offend all the cinema chains?

This is even more serious than investigating corruption within China Film Group!

When Chen Heizi gets ruthless, he even harms himself, so it seems that my little problem is nothing.

Ruthless!
If they go against the cinema chain directly, the previous alliance will not be so solid. If Shanghai Film Group seizes the opportunity, Chen Heizi will be asking for trouble. Director Tong's originally gloomy mood suddenly improved.

Chen Heizi wants to check the cinema chains, so I'll help him!

Assign more people to him and investigate thoroughly! Investigate more carefully!
We must not let ordinary people pay high prices to watch movies!
Han Laosan was also helpless and guessed that Director Tong would add fuel to the fire at this time!

But he was also wondering what Chen Shiping was doing.

There is really no benefit in offending the theaters.

Unless they vigorously develop independent cinema chains and get rid of their dependence on cinema chains in various provinces, the cinema chains will be afraid to bow their heads.

But how much does it cost to set up a national cinema chain?
Han Laosan was not very optimistic about this matter, but he still worked meticulously.

This time it seems outrageous, perhaps Chen Shiping had a plan in place.

He has never made a mistake over the years, believe him!

Chen Shiping naturally had a backup plan in his mind. After changing his way of thinking, he found that things were not as difficult as he had imagined.

Cinemas are terminals after all. Although they are in a strong position, they will die without movies.

On the same rope.

What's more, China Film Group also owns shares in many cinema chains, so it still has a certain degree of initiative.

The leaders above were quite happy when they knew that Chen Shiping was pushing Director Tong to investigate internal corruption while also investigating the cinema chain.

Isn't this about rectifying the internal situation of China Film Corporation?

After China Film Group is merged into Guangzhou Film Group, won’t it be a completely transformed China Film Group without many problems?
Internal mergers will also be smoother at that time.

Chen Shiping is still thoughtful!
I thought he was trying to be sneaky!
Chen Shiping didn't care about what others thought. He was busy chatting with people from Yindu Organization.

"I hope that Hong Kong can keep pace with the mainland in terms of the introduction of Hollywood movies," Chen Shiping said with a smile. "I know Hong Kong is an open and inclusive city, but I hope we can cooperate."

The newly appointed chairman of Yindu smiled and said, "We can cooperate, but the situation here is more complicated."

"I understand. It's not that we won't bring them in, but we're setting higher conditions. You know I'm competing with several Hollywood companies, and I hope we can make our position clear. It doesn't matter if it's a little vague, but we must have an attitude!"

Chen Shiping took a sip of tea and continued, "Of course, China Film will also open up more space for Hong Kong films. It will be mutually beneficial. Is that okay?"

"No problem! Mr. Chen has spoken, so there must be no problem!"

"Thank you!"

Chen Shiping smiled and shook hands with him.

Business in Hong Kong is relatively easy. Hong Kong films are now completely dependent on the mainland market, and they have to be obedient.

What's more, Yindu is one of us, so there is no reason for him not to cooperate.

Silver Metro controls two-thirds of Hong Kong's cinema chains. With their cooperation, things can be easily accomplished.

It was Chen Shiping who helped Yindu acquire these cinema chains.

If you don't cooperate, Chen Shiping will be angry!

However, negotiations with Taiwan are much more troublesome.

Now the relationship between the two sides has not been fully opened, and the other side is unwilling to cooperate.

I also don't want to offend Da Piaoliang.

Chen Shiping looked at the old acquaintance across from him and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, let me say this in a personal relationship. Sometimes you shouldn't be too stubborn. It's no good."

"Mr. Chen, I don't think anything will go wrong."

Chen Shiping smiled and said, "Okay, let's wait and see!"

Many Taiwanese investors are investing in film and television dramas in the mainland, including TV series, movies, and celebrities coming to the mainland to develop their careers.

At least for such small matters, the impact is not significant.

Otherwise it doesn't make sense.

If Chen Shiping blocks them, they will naturally let go and put pressure on him.

Many people were confused. What was going on?

Damn it, what on earth happened!

At the exchange meeting, many media took the initiative to ask questions.

Facing the reporter's question, Chen Shiping explained very seriously:

"It is necessary to properly protect the development of the mainland's film and television industry. We hope to have a more open space for cooperation, but this requires cooperation from both sides.

From the perspective of the entire world market, Hollywood movies are coming on strong, which has had a certain impact on the development of Asian films."

Everyone, when you hear this, you won't understand.

When thinking about the recent adjustment of the standards for imported films by China Film, everyone understood it.

A reporter immediately asked, "Mr. Chen, is this not conducive to the development of the film market?"

Chen Shiping looked at the reporter and said, "Are the European and American markets isolated? How many Chinese-language films can enter the European and American markets?

Are Chinese-language films inferior to European and American films? Restricting imported films is precisely to allow more Chinese-language films to go abroad!
Don’t always focus on the box office of a few imported films!
Only when local films develop can we bring about a more prosperous market!"

After Chen Shiping finished speaking, he also made his attitude clear.

This time we have to show it to those jackals outside!
I'm going to be frank with you!
The attitude must be toughened!

After Chen Shiping said these words, the theme of the film art exchange meeting completely changed to the topic of how Chinese-language films can go global, whether to be isolated or open.

Chen Shiping was no longer concerned about the subsequent exchanges.

His attention has turned inland.

Han Laosan set up an investigation team to look into the cinema chain, and it has been several days since then.

The cinema chain was very resistant and refused to cooperate at all, and refused to acknowledge the price increase.

Han Laosan felt that the situation was really damn tricky, but when Chen Shiping's speech at the film art exchange spread in the mainland media, things seemed to start to change.

Almost everyone felt that Chen Shiping's tough attitude this time was a bit like when he was young.

It seems like there is a big move!

At this time, they suddenly checked the cinema chains, called for restrictions on actors' pay, and reached a consensus with the Hong Kong film industry to jointly restrict the import of films and resist the invasion of Hollywood films.

All of this seems to be connected by a thread, and things are not as simple as imagined.

What Chen Shiping did this time is quite big!

If you continue to force it, you might be beaten as the first one to stick out!

Damn, Chen Heizi, what the hell are you doing?

Why are there so many things happening all of a sudden!

Is there going to be some big move at the top?

The wind direction is not right
