On the other side, Lu Fang, Li Feng and others began to contact the people in charge of the theater chain after they returned.
Although it was already evening, it seemed insincere to call at this time, but because of time constraints, I had no choice but to do so.
Express your feelings, apologize to the other party, and then tactfully ask about the release schedule of "Buried Alive".
"Mr. Chen, thank you very much. I'm sorry to bother you so late. I'll pay you a visit tomorrow. I hope you can give me some face..." Lu Fang said on the phone.
The person he called was the person in charge of a theater chain. Although he didn't know him, he got the other person's phone number through connections and reached an agreement with the other person.
This theater chain does not have the same attitude as the previous theater chains, and it should be one of the theater chains that has not been convinced.
Generally speaking, Jiaxing, which is of a similar size, will not contact me and thinks it is unnecessary.
The theaters they contacted were all of good size. The smaller ones would not have an important impact on the overall situation, so there was no need to spend that effort.
As with the theater chains under Starway Entertainment, they will also contact them. Some theater chains agree to curb Chen Mubai, but some are unwilling. They value interests more.
Furthermore, there is also competition among major entertainment companies, and there are more or less conflicts and frictions in interests. If the relationship is not harmonious, it will be difficult for these people to achieve cooperation.
This is the case with the theater chain that Lu Fang just contacted. They still focus on profit. After all, the other party promised benefits, why not?
Regardless of long-term cooperation or short-term cooperation, as long as it is beneficial to the theater chain.
Not every movie in the theater chain makes money, and a lot of them lose money. If you can get benefits, why not?
If you want to arrange a film for "Buried Alive", then give it to me.
The films that are currently being released and are not performing well will be downgraded to "Buried Alive", and then the subsequent film schedule will be based on the performance of "Buried Alive".
If the attendance rate of "Buried Alive" is high and it can bring good profits to the theater, Mubai Entertainment will increase its film schedule without any request.
This is the attitude of ordinary movie theaters, which focus on making money rather than personal grudges.
Of course, if there are enemy films, they will still be targeted. There are also conflicts between companies, just like the relationship between Starway and Mubai Entertainment.
This is just a matter between companies. It will definitely not be as massive as Mubai Entertainment. The seven major companies have joined forces to target it. This situation is extremely rare.
"Easy to say, easy to say, that's it, I'll go find you tomorrow!" After Lu Fang reached an agreement with the other party, he hung up the phone.
"I don't know what's going on with Brother Feng." Lu Fang felt a little heavy.
When we first called him, his tone was very relaxed and comfortable, and there was no problem at all. This was all disguised.
This can be considered a business discussion. If the tone is not good, it will easily affect the other party's impression. Once the other party feels bad, it will be difficult to discuss business.
Li Feng and Lu Fang are currently mainly targeting relatively large theater chains. They work separately, each responsible for several, and strive to understand each other's attitude in the shortest possible time.
At this time, it was not appropriate for him to ask. Maybe Li Feng was contacting the cinema.
"I'll ask you later." Lu Fang sighed, drank some water, and continued to call the next person.
He didn't get much rest today, plus he vomited after drinking at noon, and he has been going to theaters to negotiate for a new movie. His throat was a little dry and sore when he spoke, and his mouth was dry.
Soon, after making the phone call, he knew the attitudes of the several theater chains he was responsible for contacting.
Just as he was about to contact Li Feng to ask about his progress, Chen Mubai called.
"Brother Lu, let me tell you something." Chen Mubai said.
"I've finished the phone call here. I know the attitudes of several theater chains. Let me tell you first." Lu Fang started to say at the same time.
"You speak first."
"You say it first." They both spoke at the same time.
"You go ahead and say it," Chen Mubai said.
"...That's roughly it. There may be a glimmer of hope in the matter. I just don't know what the situation is like on Brother Feng's side." Lu Fang told Chen Mubai the information he had just obtained.
Chen Mubai listened quietly to Lu Fang's words, and waited until he finished speaking before he started speaking again.
He knows that everyone is very anxious when facing this matter. This difficulty is indeed difficult to overcome, and everyone is working hard for it.
"Brother Lu, what I'm about to tell you may be bad news." Chen Mubai thought for a moment and was ready to tell him.
"What's the matter?" Lu Fang was silent for a moment, and then asked pretending to be relaxed.
"Things are already like this, how can it be bad?"
He didn't want Chen Mubai to be under too much pressure, and he didn't want his heavy heart to affect Chen Mubai.
"Duoduo's father is contacting people for us to see if we can solve this matter," Chen Mubai said.
Lu Fang wondered: "This is a good thing!"
"The problem is that this matter is not as simple as we thought. The Seventh Group took action..."
Chen Mubai told Lu Fang the details, and the other party listened in silence.
"In other words, this matter is basically unsolved. No matter what happens to this movie, it may affect our future layout..." Lu Fang said bitterly.
This does not represent the success or failure of a movie, it may very well mean that the road is blocked.
Moreover, based on Qian Hui's analysis, these things are most likely correct, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why there was this action against them.
But according to what he said, if the Seven Greats were determined to deal with them, even his relationship would not be able to shake the other party's determination.
Although the truth has not been finalized, in Lu Fang's heart, this is undoubtedly the truth.
At this time, Lu Fang figured out why the Seven Conferences were targeting the "weak" Mubai Entertainment. They were taking precautions before they happened. They didn't want Mubai Entertainment to become a giant dragon!
When he knew the truth, he burst into tears. It was so cruel.
Mubai Entertainment finally developed better and better, but they encountered such a blow during the rising period. This blow was too big for them!
"This matter is currently difficult to resolve. Let's wait for the news in two days and then take a look." Chen Mubai said.
...
After Chen Mubai and Lu Fang talked on the phone, they were still thinking about how to break the situation.
At this time, Tao Yaoyao called.
"What's wrong?" Chen Mubai put away his thoughts and sounded a smiling voice, very gentle.
He encountered difficulties, but it had nothing to do with Tao Yaoyao. He didn't want Tao Yaoyao to worry and wanted to hide it from her.
"I know everything." Tao Yaoyao whispered.
"Why don't you tell me..."
Tao Yaoyao was a little aggrieved. She was obviously his girlfriend, but Chen Mubai didn't tell her about such a big thing, which made her very dissatisfied.
Even though she knew that Chen Mubai didn't want her to worry, she still felt resentful.
In her opinion, since the two of them are in a relationship, they have to face problems together. What's the point of not telling her that she is responsible for it alone?
"I'm sorry, I don't want you to worry..." Chen Mubai knew that Tao Yaoyao was dissatisfied, so he apologized quietly.
When this matter was investigated, it was indeed his problem. He wanted to protect Tao Yaoyao too much and ignored her thoughts.
As Chen Mubai's girlfriend, Tao Yaoyao definitely doesn't want to know anything about her boyfriend, and she also wants to help him.
Even if it is not this matter, it would be the same if it were replaced by anything else.
The two are one. Tao Yaoyao doesn't want to be protected only by herself. She also wants to protect the other person. This is the sincerity of each other's dedication to each other. Both parties must give, rather than one party giving and the other taking.
"Huh, I'm very angry!" Tao Yaoyao said angrily: "I don't think you even consider me your girlfriend, otherwise you wouldn't tell me such a big thing!"
"I also want to do something for you. You don't want to hide everything from me. I can bear it with you."
Tao Yaoyao, who was still a little angry just now, lost his anger in an instant and became distressed.
She knew that Chen Mubai must be in a bad mood now, and she didn't want to burden him with her little temper.
Although Tao Yaoyao is a bit arrogant girl, she is very smart and knows that this is not the time to be angry, and Chen Mubai needs her comfort and help.
"I'll settle it with you later!" Tao Yaoyao thought to herself.
"It's my fault, I didn't think well!" Chen Mubai decisively admitted his mistake: "This matter has not been determined yet. Maybe there is a loophole in the matter."
Chen Mubai could only use this excuse to deal with Tao Yaoyao. Even if she knew about it, she couldn't help him. No matter how much he said, it would only make her worry.
"I'm asking my father for support to see if he can help you!" Tao Yaoyao said.
Tao Qingchao had rich connections and resources, so Tao Yaoyao thought of asking her father to help.
Although he is not in the entertainment industry, he does know some big shots and may be able to help Chen Mubai.
"No need, Yaoyao." Chen Mubai explained: "We are still trying to figure this out. Duoduo's father has already mobilized his connections to help us. Although my uncle is very powerful, he is influential in the business world. This is entertainment.
Circle, he may not be able to help if he takes action."
"And things may turn around. Once your father takes action, the outside world will tie Mubai Entertainment and Dow Group together, which will cause even greater repercussions."
This is true. Qian Hui has been involved in the entertainment industry for decades and must have deeper connections than Tao Qingchao. Strong dragons cannot overwhelm local cowards. No matter how powerful Tao Qingchao is, that is a matter in the shopping mall and has nothing to do with the entertainment industry.
These big guys may not care about things normally, but when it comes to matters involving interests, they will definitely not back down.
Chen Mubai told Tao Yaoyao the reason why the seven major forces united to deal with him, hoping that she would give up the idea.
Qida was originally worried about the merger between Mubai Entertainment and Tao Group, so they took this action.
If the Dow Group can solve the crisis, it won't matter even if they are tied together. The key is that Tao Qingchao cannot solve the crisis. If the Dow Group intervenes rashly, and he is tied to the Dow Group, there will be more opponents in the future, and he will become
The target of public criticism.
I'm afraid that the Seven Conferences will intensify their efforts to deal with him secretly, which will not be good for the development of Mubai Entertainment.
At present, we are just trying to contain him in the film industry. Once the two sides really meet, I'm afraid it won't just be this one action.
Mubai Entertainment and Tao Group are just a possibility. After all, the relationship between Tao Yaoyao and Chen Mubai is indeed like this, but the two may not be able to get married. It is too normal for the relationship in the entertainment industry to break up and get back together, so this matter
It's not 100% solid.
Therefore, as long as the Tao Group does not come to an end, the Seventh Group will not take such drastic measures against Mubai Entertainment. After all, Mubai Entertainment's backers are just their imagination and not a fact.
If this thing came true now, everything would be different.
Feifan Entertainment is a lesson learned from the past. Mubai Entertainment has not yet reached the strength of Feifan Entertainment!
Tao Qingchao just wanted to find people in the circle to take action, and the people who spoke out against them were top bosses. Tao Qingchao was afraid that he would not be able to dispel their ideas.
If we go to the authorities to take action, there is no definite evidence. After all, everyone is acting within the rules and did not prevent "Buried Alive" from being released. This is something that cannot be explained clearly.
