Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 184 The blockhouse exploded, and it was blew up by itself

That night.

Zhou Mo and Da Tiantian sat in front of the computer, waiting for news.

When I saw Huang Silang’s studio release a message saying that he would be interviewed tomorrow.

The two clapped their hands and cheered.

I'm not afraid of your response, Huang Silang. I'm just afraid that you, Huang Silang, will pretend to be dead.

the next day.
After Huang Silang responded to the sex scandal in an interview, a reporter suddenly asked.

"Brother Fa, since you announced a few years ago that you would donate all your property in the future, do you still think so now?"

When Huang Silang heard this, he recalled the feeling of lying on money and counting it for the past two years since he returned to China.

Give up personal property and donate it all.

How can it be?

So, he said, "The donation will depend on the situation. We will talk about it forty years later. We said at the beginning that we would donate 99% of our property after our death. Now I can continue to do it."

The reporter kept asking, "But Brother Fa, you said back then that you would continue to be committed to charity, but it seems like you haven't really done much charity work in recent years..."

Huang Silang also noticed something was wrong at this time.

In just a few words, the expressions of the reporters in the first row changed.

So he quickly made amends, “I don’t care about money. I don’t have any money. I have to ask my wife’s permission before I spend money. I have nothing now. I am worse than an ordinary person. I can’t even afford to take the bus. I usually have to rely on my two feet to participate in activities... (1)”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was in an uproar.

The reporters couldn't imagine that Huang Silang could say such words in public.

Does he think everyone is a fool?
This morning, countless reporters saw him coming out of his mansion worth more than 120 million Hong Kong dollars and taking a car to the exhibition hall to be interviewed.

This guy really thinks that he has been on the bus a few times and just put on a show a few times, so everyone will take it seriously.

That afternoon.

Huang Silang’s interview was exposed.

The reactions in both places were different.

The Hong Kong media immediately started to mock him, saying that the best actor is good at acting. Even if we don’t talk about movies, just talking about the fantasy of freedom from a billionaire to an ordinary poor person, it seems that there is no one better than him in the entire entertainment industry.

Soon, Hong Kong media spontaneously began to dig up Huang Silang's dark history.

In just one afternoon, the dark history uncovered by the Hong Kong media exceeded all the preparations Zhou Mo had made during this period.

Zhou Mo also felt emotional.

As expected of a local operation, the information is complete.

In contrast, in the mainland, Huang Silang's remarks instead gave off a polarized feeling.

After reading the interview transcript, some crazy fans started defending their idols online.

"Fat Brother is a real man, he loves his wife, he is a role model for our generation."

"His acting skills are top-notch, and his character is also top-notch. He is simply a winner in life."

All I can say is that the fighting power of brain-dead fans is really strong.

Even though the evidence has been pasted on his face, a mansion worth more than 100 million, a drama queen, and when filming "The Big Tits Girl", he needed eight reports and equipped himself with a motorhome...

But the crazy fans still think that their idols are pure and innocent.

Of course, brain-dead fans are a minority after all.

The vast majority of normal netizens followed the information circulating on the Internet and also dug up some deeper situations:

Huang Silang has always claimed to be doing charity since he returned to China.

But in reality, there is not much real charity.

Except for the photo taken during the "Curse of the Golden Flower" period when Gong was dressed as an emperor, which was later auctioned for 3.2 million and donated.

Other charitable acts with a clear record are almost nonexistent.

As soon as the news came out, netizens felt that their three views had been baptized.

"Charity is charity, and donating money is donating money. How can they be discussed in the same breath?"

“I am charitable ≠ I donate money, the inequality is broken in seconds!”

"I don't want to reduce my salary, but I am willing to do charity work, of course, on the premise that I don't have to donate money."

"Now I really have to pay, using the little money from the two big families. After the matter is done, remember to return the money to Master Huang in full."

"Damn, Let the Bullets Fly is still gaining points. Jiang Wen is really awesome."

"Does Huang Silang count as blowing up his own tower?"

"I feel like Director Jiang Wen knew who Huang Silang was, so he paid a huge premium to invite him to the show. It's like he's acting himself, right?"

In just one day, Huang Silang's identity as a "great philanthropist" quickly collapsed.

Many netizens have looked through the years for various charity events, both official and unofficial, including charity galas of all sizes, and special social practices.

There are basically very few records of Huang Silang's donations.

For the first time, Huang Silang's negative image on the Internet outweighed his positive image.

Shanhe Company.

Da Tiantian was still a little puzzled: "Why do netizens have such a big problem with Huang Silang's donation? There are quite a lot of celebrities in the entertainment industry who have committed fraudulent donations, but even after some of them were exposed, they were not boycotted as severely as Huang Silang."

Zhou Mo raised his eyebrows: "Fraudulent donation, who are you talking about?"

"Lin Ziwei. I went to the Bazaar charity event before and she bought a lot of press releases. But after I looked at the list, I found out that she didn't donate at all."

Zhou Mo suddenly realized.

Lin Ziwei.

He is an old hand at fraudulent donations.

He explained: "Let's not talk about Lin Ziwei for now. She will definitely have a fall in the future. Let's talk about Huang Silang first.

Tiantian, actually you should have discovered that since Huang Silang returned to China, the only movie he made that really made money and became famous is "Let the Bullets Fly", and the rest have basically all flops.

With such a box office-poisonous result, why do you think he can always be favored by investors? "

Da Tiantian understood: "Because he is doing charity and said he would donate his net worth, he is very popular with the public, and the film company thought he could carry the box office."

"Not bad at all."

In the past "Shuang Zhou and Cheng Yi" combination, Huang Silang was not as good as Zhou Xingxing in terms of performance.

In terms of achievements, Huang Silang cannot compare to Cheng Long.

Before the current movies like "The Man from Macau" that simply make box office money came out, the reason why Huang Silang made so many flops but was still able to gain the same level of popularity as the other two was really related to charity.

Therefore, when netizens discovered that Huang Silang’s charity was not true, or at least not as real as he said, Huang Silang’s reputation naturally collapsed.

In less than two days, a group of "Huang Silang" haters appeared on the Internet.

Every day, he does nothing but scold Huang Silang for his inconsistent behavior in the past and present.

Some fans accused these haters of ruining their idol's reputation.

Heizi: Why are we black?

Fan: You told him what he did.

All I can say is that xx jokes never go out of style.

This group of people has nothing to do with Zhou Mo.

It is a spontaneous behavior of netizens.

And Zhou Mo didn't think these people were black. They were just trying it out.

The entertainment industry has always been a place where one small move affects the entire body.

When many people in the industry heard the news that Huang Silang was being criticized, they were in disbelief at first.

That was Huang Silang after all.

A figure who is regarded as a belief by a generation in the film and television industry.

In the eyes of many people, Huang Silang himself is the representative of Hong Kong films.

It is the spiritual pillar of countless people!
Now, this character has fallen from grace.

But immediately afterwards, many people spontaneously launched a "proof" campaign.

Since when, fans of some actors began to show off online the total amount of money their idols have donated in the past xx years.

From hundreds of thousands at the beginning, to millions, and then to eight figures.

These data naturally flow out from the actors' team.

Including these fans, they are also the core of some fan groups.

On Weibo, every additional news about a celebrity donating money is like a slap in the face to Huang Silang.

at the same time.

Mile Station.

Zhou Mo's office.

Cheng Long and Zhou Mo sat face to face, with hesitation on their faces.

"Director Zhou, are we really going to do this charity-related interview?"

Three days ago, Cheng Long received an invitation from Zhou Mo to do an interview about charity.

At that time, Cheng Long didn't know what Zhou Mo did to Huang Silang.

I thought it was just some negative information.

I didn't expect that I could actually pinch the opponent's weak spot.

Therefore, Cheng Long's first reaction now was to recall whether he had ever offended Zhou Mo in the past.

If there is, resolve it quickly.

This young man is so cruel.

Just go straight to death.

Zhou Mo smiled and said, "Brother Long, this is just an ordinary interview. It's just to summarize your charity work over the years, and then talk about your mental journey."

Compared to Huang Silang, Cheng Long has indeed been making donations over the years.

SARS: 150 million, Wenchuan: 1000 million, Yushu: 300 million…

If all the donations are added up, it will definitely be in the eight figures.

Chenglong has done a lot of charity work over the past few decades, but there has never been a special collection or summary.

Cheng Long heard this and did not respond.

Don't think Zhou Mo said it lightly.

But Cheng Long has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and he knows that as long as this interview comes out, it basically means the end of the team, and Huang Silang will suffer another serious blow.

Given Jackie Chan's personality, he actually doesn't really want to fall out with Huang Silang.

Seeing this, Zhou Mo was not in a hurry and continued to persuade.

"Brother Long, I remember the box office forecast for The Chinese Zodiac is about to be released, right? About 900 million?"

Back to the movie, Cheng Long smiled.

Waving his hand, "Not that much, a little more than 850 million."

"This should be Brother Long's highest domestic box office."

“Yes, the box office success of ‘The Chinese Zodiac’ is largely thanks to Director Zhou’s promotion.” Cheng Long nodded in thanks.

Previously, the bet with Zhou Mo made Cheng Long realize the power of the divine fortune teller once again.

He really didn't expect that Zhou Mo could predict the movie box office so accurately based on the script, actors and other information without even watching the original film.

Although later on, Zhou Mo would eventually share some of the box office revenue because he took on part of the publicity business.

But the box office of more than 800 million yuan still makes Cheng Long feel very accomplished.

Zhou Mo continued, "What if there is an opportunity to make the Chinese Zodiac surpass 1 billion box office?"

"Breaking through 1 billion!" Cheng Long exclaimed, then reacted and pointed to the room below him: "Director Zhou said this is the interview?"

Zhou Mo nodded.

"Of course, Brother Long, you might as well think about it. Huang Silang can rely on the reputation of charity to gather so many passers-by, and you Cheng Long have actually done a lot of charity. At this juncture, once this interview is exposed, how much box office can it bring?"

Cheng Long was moved after listening to Zhou Mo's explanation.

At this stage of his life, he actually doesn’t care much about material things anymore.

No matter how much money you have, you can’t take it with you when you die.

How much can you spend on food, clothing, housing and transportation?
The adults in the cage care more about reputation.

He loves movies and hopes to leave his name in film history.

If the box office of "Chinese Zodiac" can really exceed 1 billion, then he will be the second person in the country to have a movie box office exceed 1 billion.

As for the first place, it is of course Zhou Mo in front of him.

Cheng Long felt his heart beating a little faster.

He looked at Zhou Mo: "Director Zhou, are you kidding me?"

"Brother Long, when have I ever joked with you? In fact, netizens in our country have always been very simple - if you do good things, I will support you. This is the true psychological portrayal of netizens. And the way to support movies is actually to buy tickets."

Zhou Mo spread his hands and continued, "Besides, I have always been quite unhappy. It is already the second decade of the 21st century, why are people still promoting the "Two Mondays" all day long on the Internet..."

These words touched Cheng Long's heart.

The so-called "Shuang Zhou Yi Cheng" is a term that appeared in the 1980s.

Up to now, the only person who has truly become famous in the global film and television industry is Cheng Long.

Why should the remaining two people compare with him?

Anyway, since returning from Hollywood, Cheng Long has never promoted the title of "Double Zhou and One Cheng" again.

After "CJ7", Stephen Chow also began to move behind the scenes.

So it is clear who is promoting "Double Monday and One Success".

That being the case...

Cheng Long slammed the table.

"No problem, Director Zhou, I'll take it."

"very good."

Zhou Mo snapped his fingers, "It just so happens that our "Police Story" project also needs a promotion point..."

Cheng Long smiled and said, "Director Zhou, thank you for helping me find an excuse, but don't worry, as long as I am willing to do it, I will never regret it..."

Zhou Mo shook his head.

"Brother Long, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant."
