"What is there that you dare not say? It's a typical nouveau riche mentality. When you are afraid of poverty, as soon as you get rich, you start showing off and spreading money everywhere, for fear that others will not know..."
"..."
"Talent is one thing, but no matter how talented you are, can you support an entertainment industry?"
"..."
"I have no intention of denying Zhou Yang. He has indeed donated a lot in recent years and has indeed made some good movies. But I just discuss the matter as it is without any competition or personal overtones. Compared with the size of our Xinghui, Huaxing is really
The difference is huge. We have 103 artists under our banner and nearly 5,000 employees. Last year, the total value generated in TV series, movies, commercial endorsements and other fields was close to more than 30 billion yuan. How much is China Star? It’s a fraction of ours.
?I have no need to be jealous or attack anyone..."
"..."
"I admit, this matter is indeed eye-catching. Zhou Yang knows how to hype. "Infernal Affairs" is a very successful example of hype. Of course, he is courageous and a great opponent. In ancient times, he was definitely a match.
Hero..."
"..."
"I have been in the shopping mall for so many years, and I have seen too many big storms, and I have also seen countless ugly people. As an industry senior who is one year older than Zhou Yang, I admire Zhou Yang's talent, but I also hope to give him some help.
Zhou Yang reminded me that young people are motivated and understand that sharing is a good thing, but they must pay attention to propriety... When the company gradually grows, what needs to be considered is not personal preference, but also prospects and future, and more social responsibility..."
"..."
The night of September 14th.
When Huaxing's "Mid-Autumn Festival gift" was exposed, the entire entertainment industry was in an uproar.
The discussion on "Huaxing Mid-Autumn Festival Gifts" completely overshadowed any topic on the Internet, and even the word "cleaner" became a hot search in the entire circle.
In Huaxing, an ordinary cleaner got 10,000 yuan as a "Mid-Autumn Festival gift" on a day like the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it wasn't a year-end bonus. Isn't this crazy?
The controversy has almost completely occupied Weibo’s hot searches.
Some people think Zhou Yang is hyping up, some think Zhou Yang is generous, and some think Zhou Yang has done something stupid and offended China's capital circle.
but……
These controversies are far less explicit than what Xinghui boss Li Zhongjun said!
Ten p.m!
Xinghui's boss, Li Zhongjun, bluntly stated his thoughts when being interviewed by the media.
In these words, almost every word was punctuated by harsh words such as "nouveau riche" and "show off", which severely criticized Zhou Yang. He only went so far as to call Zhou Yang a cancer in the industry.
.
His remarks made Zhou Yang's fans feel harsh and angry, and they flooded his Weibo to start blasting. However, Li Zhongjun had already set the "no comment" permission under the comments, allowing Zhou Yang's fans to
Li Zhongjun doesn't care at all how to make a fuss.
Xinghui's artists reacted cautiously to Li Zhongjun's sudden output. Apart from likes and reposts by some artists, they did not immediately comment on the team. They only thought that their own boss was drunk. However, China, such as Trina,
However, the official Weibo accounts of Meikai Rui and other theaters paid unusual attention to this matter. Not only did they repost Li Zhongjun’s Weibo account, they even overtly and covertly ridiculed “Zhou Yang is crazy” and “eating looks too ugly”, “This is a
"hype" and the like.
But no matter how the outside world comments, Zhou Yang's personal Weibo has always been empty, staying on the Weibo of "making mooncakes for help" last month.
There seemed to be no intention of responding at all.
…………………………
On the plane.
Zhou Yang sat by the window and looked at the misty white clouds.
He is very tired.
But couldn't sleep.
Not far away, Perahia has been writing piano music seriously, occasionally getting a little manic, and she even broke three or four pencils in just one hour.
George was also sitting next to him, but he was in a daze, and his eyes flashed with frustration from time to time, as if he had lost his vitality.
These days, many music masters in China, including Ms. Perahia from overseas, are helping Zhou Yang "compose" the "Wedding March."
Zhou Yang heard countless suggestions, learned deeper knowledge about music, and even came into contact with "symphony", and became aware of his own insignificance and shallowness.
certainly……
Perahia didn't know.
She only knew that this Chinese man was amazing. The saxophone songs he created "The Last of the Mohicans" (a fragmentary copy), "Wedding March" (a fragmentary copy) and "Going Home" were very amazing, giving her a vague sense of palace status.
The feeling of music.
This is amazing and ridiculous!
She has been in this industry for nearly thirty years and has met countless talented young people and seen many works, but she has never seen anyone like Zhou Yang.
If possible, she even wanted to cut open Zhou Yang's head with a knife to find out what was inside and how many works there were...
During this trip to China, in addition to being shocked by Zhou Yang, her perception of Chinese musicians also changed a lot.
She didn’t know if it was because she had been in the West for a long time, or if it was related to film and television works and news, but she subconsciously believed that Orientals are just a group of vulgar people who only seek fame and fame and don’t understand art.
But in the past few days, she has seen the piety and respect these musicians have for music.
They stayed up late together, made suggestions for Zhou Yang's creation, talked about "The Wedding March" together, and exchanged Chinese and Western music culture. Everything was very harmonious.
She also saw some people who couldn't stand it anymore and fainted in the concert hall. After being taken away by medical staff, they came back not long after and continued to spontaneously devote themselves to "assisting" Zhou Yang.
The plane bumped a bit.
A sound was heard indicating that the aircraft had entered unstable airflow.
Perahia stopped writing and looked at Zhou Yang unconsciously.
Zhou Yang sometimes frowned, sometimes shook his head, sometimes serious, sometimes relieved, and finally gently, as if he sighed, as if he was in some kind of reflection.
She was full of curiosity about this Chinese man, and felt that this Chinese man was full of mystery.
This young Chinese man remained silent amidst the discussions among the musicians. He spoke very little and at most just nodded or shook his head. Although everyone was surrounding him, he seemed to be sitting alone on an island.
Look, the eyes are always profound...
What is going on in his head at this moment?
Are you considering how to fill in the last part of the melody in "Wedding March", or are you considering how to replace it with the keynote?
Has he completely composed "The Wedding March"?
Not sure if it was a psychological effect or some other reason, Perahia felt that Zhou Yang, who was sitting by the bed and watching the floating clouds, was becoming more and more mysterious.
Damn it!
When she thought about the end of this trip to Zhou Yang, Perahia felt a little angry and aggrieved in her heart.
He obviously has a very high talent for music creation, but he is a director, and he wants to participate in a film festival with a strong commercial atmosphere like the Venice International Film Festival.
She felt that he was simply wasting his talents, but Perahia didn't know what to say...
In fact, she is not very familiar with this Chinese young man. Although she has been assisting these days, she was only invited by the Chinese Music Association, nothing more.
And this time we boarded the plane together, so we happened to be traveling on the same road!
Zhou Yang didn't pay attention to Perahia's reaction. Even at this moment, he was not thinking about music, but "capital".
He had seen the news about Li Zhongjun criticizing him, and also the news about theater chains. He understood that he had offended a lot of people with the "China Star Mid-Autumn Festival Gift" incident.
Although these so-called "bonuses" are nothing to Li Zhongjun, this matter is really too flamboyant and too tasteless.
He frowned deeply.
The cleaner, Uncle Li, is named Li Zhu. He is a retired veteran and was recruited by the company at the beginning of the year.
He is a hard-working man. His son is gone and his wife is gone. Although he has a pension, he is helpless. In addition to cleaning the company, he also works part-time as a supporting actor in some of the company's movies. He is barely one of the contracted artists.
, he played an inconspicuous role in "Infernal Affairs", and also helped repair some company's circuit chores. It is understandable to give him a bonus of 10,000.
However, Xu Mei's hype focused on her identity as a "cleaner", making everyone think that a cleaner could get so much money just by working in the company for half a year, just like a false propaganda.
, Zhou Yang felt this was very inappropriate...
After thinking wildly for a while, he finally shook his head and closed his eyes.
He tried hard to calm down, but in the end he found that he couldn't calm down.
at last……
He simply took out the character script of "Spider-Man" and started reading it.
During this trip to the Venice International Film Festival, in addition to taking the team to see if "Infernal Affairs" could win an award, Zhou Yang also had another purpose, which was to find out if there were any suitable actors on site who could play "Spider-Man".
After watching it for a while, he took out his mobile phone in airplane mode and opened the "Venice International Film Festival List" inside.
A few hours later, the plane landed in Italy.
Zhou Yang took out his mobile phone and called Christian.
This time at the Venice International Film Festival, Christian is a judge.
"Mr. Christian... at the Venice International Film Festival, are there any actors who are depressed and frustrated, not paid well, but have good acting skills?"
His first words confused Christian.
After a while, Christian expressed that he needed help...
Just when Zhou Yang nodded and hung up the phone, his cell phone rang.
"Xiao Zhou, have you ever considered Yiyi?"
The call came from a stranger.
When Zhou Yang heard this, his whole body shut down.
