"The relevant departments of the Chinese film industry have called me just now, saying that this matter is very bad and will damage the external image of the Chinese director!"
"How could you do such a thing! Are you crazy or stupid? If you are crazy, jump out of here!"
"How do you want me to help you deal with this kind of thing? Are you going to destroy yourself or me?"
"There are some things that you just know in your heart. There is no need to show them out in such a grand manner. What are you going to do? Do you feel tired and want to destroy everything?"
"All the teachings I usually teach you have been taught to Pig Nao? I don't remember ever teaching you to do such stupid things! Calm down, calm down, everything must focus on the overall situation. If you do this, you are worthy of what I have said to you all these years.
Is your cultivation worthy of yourself?"
"How much hard work I put into "Night Walker"! Do you know how much hard work I put in? Now it's all ruined by you, idiot! Do you know how much compensation you will face if this matter is not handled well!
How much money will Xinghui lose because of your movie?"
"What a fucking idiot!"
Outside Xinghui's office.
A large group of staff pointed at the office.
In the office.
A storm of curses rushed towards Django.
Cao Bangguo, who rarely got angry, had a distorted face, his whole body was trembling, his face was as green as an angry lion, he raised his hand, grabbed a bottle of water and hit Jiang Ge hard on him.
Jiang Ge did not dodge, but stood motionless after being hit on the head, with guilt and self-blame flashing across his face.
The feeling of pain made him extremely awake.
He knew that he was indeed impulsive, and the right thing to do was to discuss it with Uncle Cao and then slowly solve the problem.
but……
He found that he didn't regret it at all.
He was very relaxed. Even if Cao Bangguo wanted to kill him, he felt that it didn't matter to him.
Cao Bangguo scolded him for a long time.
After seeing Jiang Ge's pimpled face, he was so angry that he hit Jiang Ge with something again, making Jiang Ge's head bleed. Seeing that Jiang Ge still didn't respond, he finally let out a long sigh.
.
"How can someone like you stay in this circle for a long time..."
"Why are you comparing yourself to Zhou Yang..."
Django lowered his head.
When he heard Cao Bangguo say nothing more after saying this, he raised his head slightly.
He saw a pair of disappointed eyes with a hint of uncertainty.
The eyes were very cold, so cold that he wanted to shiver, but in the end the eyes turned complicated, and then Cao Bangguo handed him a napkin.
"Just wipe it, there is nothing else you can do about it now... This time, go to the major units and theaters yourself and talk to each other, and try to prevent "Night Walker" from being finished in advance..."
"Uncle, I'm sorry..." Jiang Ge wiped the blood from his head, his voice trembling.
"It's too late to say sorry now, go and wipe your butt clean... Go away, I don't want to see you now!" Cao Bangguo sat down on the chair and waved his hand to Jiang Ge, as if he didn't even look at him
It's all superfluous at a glance.
"Um...Uncle, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Jiang Ge lowered his head and left the office while repeatedly saying sorry to Cao Bangguo.
He exited the office and closed the door.
Outside.
He saw a pair of eyes that were either contemptuous, contemptuous, or indifferent...
In the office.
Cao Bangguo looked at the direction Jiang Ge was leaving, and the cold, angry, and gloomy expression on his face gradually disappeared.
Then he shook his head and sighed quietly.
But somehow, I feel a little relieved.
"It can be considered a growth."
………………………………
August 27th.
The whole network's denunciation of "Night Walker" and Django continues.
On the Internet, many people even made voices boycotting "Night Walker".
Even Zheng Shaocong, the head of Post Capital who invested in "Night Walker", threatened on Weibo that not only would Jiang Ge be included in the investment blacklist from now on, but he would even make Jiang Ge look good.
There was an overwhelming amount of negative information about Jiang Ge. Some accused Jiang Ge of unspoken rules for female artists on the set. Some accused Jiang Ge of secretly manipulating the crew to "select concubines". Some even accused Jiang Ge of suppressing other new directors.
…
Overnight, Django seemed to have turned into a street rat that everyone yelled at.
When everyone thought that the movie "Night Walker" would be canceled because of Django's "scandal", they did not expect that the major theaters did not cancel "Night Walker".
August 27th, ten o'clock in the morning.
Some photos and videos of Django appeared on major media platforms.
Someone photographed Jiang Ge standing alone in the office of Young Master Wanda Cinema, pleading with Young Master Wanda...
Someone photographed Jiang Ge personally opening the door for the CEO of Yongxin Cinema in public...
Someone photographed Django appearing at the door of Post Investment Company, and seemed to be scolded by the person in charge of Post...
…
The once proud Django, in order to prevent "Night Walker" from being abandoned by theaters, humbled himself like a dog...
A photo and a video have won the sympathy of some netizens, but there are also comments like "If I had known today, why bother in the first place?"
But at least "Nightcrawler" was saved.
[From the perspective of the movie "Infernal Affairs", I can't forgive you. After all, this movie is the culmination of everyone's efforts.]
[But personally, I don’t know whether I should forgive you or not... That’s it! 】
At noon on February 27, Zhou Yang posted a Weibo post, and his influence directly changed from "hot" to "explosive"!
The heated incident of "Django Stealing Box Office" once reached the top of the social search list. Countless filmmakers and netizens went from condemning and insulting to debating "Should Zhou Yang forgive Django?"
Zhengfang felt that Zhou Yang should forgive and be more generous. After all, Jiang Ge apologized so solemnly and paid for his actions.
The other side feels that some mistakes can be forgiven, but incidents like this, which involve contacting foreign forces and harming the interests of the Chinese people, are tantamount to treason. It is a matter of principle and cannot be forgiven. There are even a lot of voices asking Jiang Ge to get out of the entertainment industry.
…
but……
This controversy did not last long, and the entire Chinese film industry was shocked by another piece of box office information.
Four o'clock in the morning on August 28th.
The box office of Chinese movies on the 27th was announced online!
The moment I saw the movie box office...
All the movie fans' eyes widened, and then everyone gasped, feeling like they were living in a magical world!
"Fuck!"
"real or fake!"
"Oh my god, this, this, this, this is too scary!"
"Record-breaking, record-breaking, damn, this is record-breaking!"
"Oh my God, I actually witnessed history on this day!"
"this……"
"This is a Hollywood blockbuster. This is a Hollywood blockbuster with a ticket price twice that of "Infernal Affairs"!"
"..."
"I have my share of credit here. Really, I have my own share of the credit. When I heard that Zhou Yang was going to donate all the box office of "Infernal Affairs", I grabbed a dozen tickets by myself!"
"Mine too!"
"And me, damn, I didn't expect that not only would I respond to Zhou Yang's call for charity, but I would also indirectly help Zhou Yang create history!"
"..."
……………………
"Superman 2" has a box office of 38 million!
"Infernal Affairs" has a box office of 39 million!
"Night Walker" has a box office of 4 million!
Hollywood.
When James Lee saw the box office on the 27th, he stood up from his chair and looked at the box office data in a daze.
"God, this, damn it, Geese, tell me this isn't true, tell me this isn't true!"
James Lee couldn't suppress the shock in his heart and yelled crazily.
Keith, one of the assistant directors, also looked at the box office of China's new round of "The Departed" in disbelief.
He felt a buzzing in his head. He wiped his eyes several times before confirming that the box office was real and everything was real!
"It's so ridiculous. Our "Superman 2" actually lost to the Chinese film "Infernal Affairs" at the box office? This is the biggest joke in the world! Geese, damn it, Geese, you have someone check it out.
Check if there is anything wrong with the box office, otherwise, we will be laughed at, we will be laughed at by the whole world!"
The huge feeling of disparity made James Lee unable to suppress his emotions, and almost all the saliva on his body was sprayed on Keith.
Giese wiped his face...
He touched his head awkwardly, nodded and quickly walked out of the office.
More than ten minutes later, he walked back to the office again, his expression even more embarrassed.
"it is true!"
"Damn it, God, you actually told me this is true? Is it a falsified box office or a falsified data? Have you checked all of this? Are these all true?"
"It's true, the data is very detailed..."
"FUCK!"
"This Chinese director is very cunning. He said that he would donate all the box office profits he received... It caused a huge response in China. The fans were very enthusiastic, and the theaters gave "Infernal Affairs" a lot of film schedules..."
Giese told James Lee everything that happened in China.
James Li looked at the headlines translated from the Chinese side.
[Volunteers have arrived in the disaster area in southern Hunan. Zhou Yang Fans Support Association "Yangcun": has donated nearly 10 million yuan in materials and participated in the construction...]
"This cunning guy! Damn it! Did he really donate it all?"
"Damn it! This madman!"
When James Lee saw this scene, he suddenly felt chills running down his spine!
But then, as if he realized something, he stared at another piece of news!
"No, no! This guy didn't donate all of it. There was still advertising revenue from "The Departed". The advertising revenue has already paid back, and it's amazing. All he donated was the box office revenue!"
"And even "Infernal Affairs" has advertising revenue..."
"All he donated in full was the box office proceeds!"
"Damn it! This person is doing marketing! Keith, please check how much advertising revenue there is from "Infernal Affairs", it should be quite a lot!"
