Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 319 Drawing fire from the bottom of the cauldron
Wu Baige was quite shocked by Zhou Mo's effectiveness in propaganda.

In less than twenty-four hours, the other party had easily launched an all-round wave of attacks against him on the Internet.

The key is that the content of these waves is not false propaganda, but all real material.

This is very scary.

For people like Wu Baige.

Everyone has a time when they are young and frivolous.

Everyone has a time when they can't hold back.

But karma is inevitable and retribution will come.

It was a pleasant thing to say at first, but now it is time to pay back the debt.

Overnight, Wu Baige's reputation plummeted, and it was getting faster and faster, as if he had been stripped naked and thrown into the street.

Wu Baige couldn't sit still anymore.

He immediately called people to do marketing, but found that the publicity channels he could contact were no match for Zhou Mo.

The basic situation of buying a navy is:
I got on.

It was killed in an instant.

What is there to say?

Wu Baige was very unhappy with Zhou Mo's "rule-breaking" behavior, but the entertainment industry is not the police catching criminals, and there is no statute of limitations.

Digging up someone’s dark history is just a common tactic in many competitions in the entertainment industry.

And there are no restrictions on the objects.

There is no situation where one party uses it while the other party is not going to use it.

Wu Baige saw that he was losing ground in the matter of "protecting his own reputation" and decisively changed his thinking.

Instead of defending yourself, attack others.

He immediately changed his target and started digging up Zhou Mo's dirt on the Internet.

After just a quick look, Wu Baige discovered that Zhou Mo had no points that he could use to attack. It seemed as if he was not the same species as someone like him who was completely black.

This is not to say that Zhou Mo has nothing to do to set the pace.

It’s just that his rhythms are of the type that won’t cause any harm when they are released. It might even increase his number of fans.

As for the black material that can really beat someone to death, or seriously injure someone.

Excuse me.

Not a single one.

"How can this guy be so cautious that he doesn't get involved in any messy things? He has come to Xiangcheng many times and has been invited by all kinds of people, but he doesn't play anything? Is this guy really so selfless?" Wu Baige was very angry.

After a thorough search, I only found some rumors.

It's still just hearsay, there's not even a video.

What is the use of this thing?

Regardless of the authenticity of this news, even if it is true, so what?
There are so many romantic affairs between men and women in the entertainment industry.

Gossip is like a spice in life. It will not have a negative impact on Zhou Mo, but will make him more popular.

Everyone likes to listen to stories about talented men and beautiful women.

"Investigate, keep investigating! If you can't find him, investigate his family and other people who are close to him." Wu Baige gave a death order.

He didn't believe that people who became famous at a young age in the entertainment industry could resist the temptation.

Unless you are a person under special protection, no one can stop the combat power of the "Box Weapon".

However, just as he finished speaking, a phone call came in.

Three minutes later.

Wu Baige's face looked very ugly, and there was some panic in his eyes.

Just now.

He had been warned.

The content of the warning is to let him not do any messy tricks. The Internet is not a lawless place and any action must abide by the law.

As for Zhou Mo, the other party didn't mention a word about him.

It was obvious that all he had to do was let Wu Baige stand still and take the beating.

In addition, there are also comments on some of his past remarks, which encourage him to be cautious in his words and actions in the future and serve as a model representative.

For the first time, Wu Baige felt that Riot was not on his side. Ever since he came back from Hollywood, he had always been the one supported, and the level of support was even greater than that of his competitors in the mainland.

In the past, Wu Baige didn't feel anything when faced with this kind of support.

Now, when the supporters stand on the opposite side, it feels very uncomfortable to get punched.

At this point, Wu Baige was a little panicked.

Zhou Mo's energy exceeded his expectations.

If it was just an entertainment promotion, he could accept losing temporarily.

Audience evaluation is important, but it is more important for the actors.

The director doesn't like this.

But once Iron Fist is involved, he is likely to lose the favor of investors after the news gets out.

Failure to raise investment is a fatal crisis for any director.

Now it seems that after he was rejected by China Film, when he contacted other people, he found that few people supported him. Perhaps it was because of the resources behind Zhou Mo that supported him.

Wu Baige never thought that the reason he couldn't find investment was simply because he had made a lot of losses in the past few years and the market no longer believed in him.

I can only say that when it comes to narcissism, there is no age limit.

And the older you are, the easier it is to get addicted.

Wu Baige thought about it and suddenly regretted his previous impulsiveness.

Maybe... I shouldn't directly conflict with Zhou Mo?

Young people are hot-tempered, young people are more energetic...

In fact, it is not incomprehensible.

"Well, young people tend to mess things up easily. They always act like cockfighting cocks. Don't they know that this attitude is not good for their own development?" Wu Baige said slowly to his assistant.

The assistant knew what the boss meant.

He immediately responded: "You don't need to bother with him about this matter. You are a senior in the film industry and have achieved so much. The result of bothering with him is to bring him traffic."

Wu Baige nodded. "But the situation now is that the feud has already been formed. Zhou Mo is pursuing me relentlessly. I don't want to argue with her, but it's obvious that he doesn't think so."

"You also said that this is a misunderstanding. Everything has a chance to be resolved. Why don't we make a phone call and communicate first, and then we can make things clear."

"very good."

Wu Baige gave his assistant a look of praise and asked for Zhou Mo's phone number from the latter's mobile phone.

Dial.

After a moment, only four words were spoken on the other end of the phone.

"I am your father!"

Hey!
What a f*cking flop.

My sweet rain is cool!
"How dare he humiliate me like this! I gave him face! I'm going to kill him!"

Wu Baige vented his anger.

After calming down, I realized that ideals are full, but reality is skinny.

Although he made great wishes, he couldn't do anything to Zhou Mo, and he still couldn't do anything to him.

Not possible with "box weapons".

“Resolving misunderstandings” doesn’t work either.

Wu Baige did not give up.

He quickly adjusted his mindset.

Determined to have a real showdown with Zhou Mo.

Although Riot doesn't allow him to cause trouble, it only does so behind the scenes.

The fist did not stop him from confronting Zhou Mo head-on.

All competition ultimately needs to be determined by works.

Although "Red Cliff" did not perform well that year.

But Wu Baige is still confident now.

It’s not that he looks down on Zhou Mo, but in his eyes, all Chinese-speaking directors are scum.

What's wrong with Jiang Wen?
It’s not like he hasn’t won the domestic box office championship before.

So what if he's Zhang EMO?
He yearns for Hollywood very much, but has never been accepted by the people there. However, Wu Baige is already a well-known figure in Hollywood.

Wu Baige subconsciously ignored the collapse of "Windtalkers".

The failure of a movie is a very complicated matter.

The production company intervened in the filming.

The lead actor was not in good condition and could not understand the theme of the movie very well.

Even the bad luck during that period...

Wait for the reason.

Anyway, it has little to do with him, Wu Baige.

Now, he has some of the most well-known actors of the middle generation in the country, and with his all-out effort, he doesn’t believe that there will be any problems with the movie!

The assistant suddenly walked into the room and brought a piece of news.

"Director Wu, Huang Xiaoming called and said that there was a problem with his previously good schedule, so unfortunately he can't participate in The Crossing."

Wu Baige stood up straight with a snap.

"Huang Xiaoming broke the contract."

The assistant nodded.

In fact, it can’t be considered a breach of contract, after all, Huang Xiaoming did not sign a contract with the crew.

Wu Baige is accustomed to preparing everything for the crew before signing contracts, so there is no need to adjust the shooting plan frequently.

Under normal circumstances, this arrangement would definitely be fine.

Given Wu Baige's position, the actors have always been the only ones who have to obey his plans.

But now that Zhou Mo was making trouble, Huang Xiaoming, who was always known for his high emotional intelligence, went against his usual behavior and chose to take sides at the first opportunity.

"Huang Xiaoming actually chose Zhou Mo?"

"Huang Xiaoming is the middle-aged person who has cooperated the most with Zhou Mo in the country. He gets a lot of resources from Zhou Mo. If he doesn't take sides, he might be attacked by Zhou Mo." The assistant added.

"He dares to embarrass me. Isn't he afraid of making me angry?" Wu Baige was furious.

That's right.

I'm not afraid of you getting angry.

Otherwise, why would he refuse so directly?

Everyone in the world knows that Huang Xiaoming has a high emotional intelligence. Normally, as long as he thinks he can earn a favor, he will offer to help, even if it means sacrificing his own reputation.

Now that they have chosen to cancel the cooperation so quickly, it can only prove one thing.

Huang Xiaoming really felt that he could not earn any favors from Wu Baige, so he decided to cut off the relationship as soon as possible.

It would also leave more impression points for Zhou Mo.

The assistant thought of this but didn't dare to say anything.

But Wu Baige had obviously reacted, his face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip out.

After a long while, he let out a long breath.

I don't know whether I should feel helpless or comfort myself: "Forget it, it's just Huang Xiaoming. It's hard to find a three-legged frog in the entertainment industry, but there are many two-legged male actors. If there's no Huang Xiaoming, there's Tong Darkwei, and there are other male stars. I can just look for others."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the assistant say.

"Director Wu, Tong Darkwei also said that due to schedule reasons, so..." He didn't finish his words, but the meaning was very clear.

Wu Baige couldn't hold it anymore.

"Another one! Don't tell me there's one?"

The assistant stammered: "Yes..."

"Tell me what you want to hear." A bad premonition flashed through Wu Baige's mind.

Even if they really leave, how many people can leave?
Wu Baige comforted herself in her heart.

Then, he heard the assistant slowly say a long list of names.

"There is Huang Xiaoming, and there is Tong Darkwei,"
