Chapter 830: The whole network voted, first and second
In the afternoon, everyone in the industry was watching the excitement of Director Chen Da.
It seems that it is not an exaggeration to describe Chen Kaige now as "the house leaks but it rains all night".
It can even be said more harshly, that is, Poet Chen was "beaten up".
Because the people who are causing trouble for him this time are not the ordinary movie fans and viewers, nor the scornful netizens, but the Taoist Association and the Taoist community!
An announcement "The Taoist community submitted a statement of solemn condemnation to director Chen Kaige" put director Chen Da and "The Taoist Comes Down the Mountain", which had "reached the end of the road", once again at the top of public opinion.
So much so that the entire film and television industry could only tremble on the sidelines and watch the excitement. No one dared to "support" Director Chen and no one dared to flatter him.
The announcement was full of eloquence, sharp words, excitement, and indignation. It did not save the usually aloof Director Chen at all.
Especially in the announcement, several questions raised against Director Chen Da hit the point.
In a concise summary, that is:
1: On what basis did you make such a low-level and obscene movie to belittle, insult, and slander Taoism? What is your purpose?
(The first thing the protagonist does after coming down from the mountain is to rob and eat meat. That is to say, he completely deviates from the basic moral standards of monks and monastics and vilifies his image...)
Two: Protagonist The high ladder peeks into privacy and arouses lust. Mr. Chen, what is your morality when you photograph a Taoist priest in such a vulgar and vulgar way?
(The pornographic clips involved in this film are not only shown in a large space, but also used as a gimmick to promote the film. This approach is to instigate lust and seduce young people.
Using low-level and vulgar obscene metaphors to attract viewers to achieve their own commercial purposes! Not to mention that such low-level content violates the teachings of Taoism, even from a universal social moral perspective, this is Intolerable and inconsistent with reason...distorting the core values advocated today)
Three: The protagonist of the film is a Taoist priest, but in the film, after killing someone, he knelt down and confessed to the monk in order to seek comfort. Mr. Chen, what are your intentions?
(Are you promoting Buddhism and suppressing Taoism? Affecting the harmony of religions? Deliberately creating conflicts and disputes between religions? Is your purpose of disparaging Taoism in this way intentional? Or have you been influenced by it? Intentional instigation from overseas investors or other forces? )
Four: Wantonly vilifying Taoism and violating many policies and regulations... How will it pass the review?
……
I heard the news online, and it quickly became a quarrel. However, the film and television industry and related departments were all silent and silent.
Online public opinion is overwhelmingly supportive of the demands for a full release of "The Taoist Comes Down the Mountain", for director Chen Da and the producers to publicly apologize, and for the elimination of all negative impacts the film has had on the Taoist community!
“Although Director Chen has a high self-esteem and strong connections, no matter how arrogant he is, he will never dare to refute this time.
So, he should remain silent , without saying a word. As for apologizing? How could someone who cares so much about his face apologize publicly? To him, silence is the ultimate form of cowardice."
Lin. Nan looked at the news and couldn't help but draw a conclusion, with a bit of sadness in his tone;
Because this "admonishment" was indeed a bit scary, especially the one that questioned Chen Kaige about "promoting Buddhism and restraining Taoism".
"Director Chen’s movie is so cool! But Director Lin, are you sure he will remain silent and not apologize?
Let’s talk over there. If they don’t apologize, they will defend Taoism to the death with legal weapons~ The dignity of the world and the nation and religion!"
"I? How can I be sure? This is such a big deal! I guess the official will come out and make peace."
Lin Nan laughed. He joked. I guess Chen Kaige is having a headache right now. There are definitely a lot of media and even officials looking for him.
After chatting about gossip, Guo Fan talked about "Get Out!" "Tumor King".
As of today, there is actually nothing left to do to promote this movie.
Because during the Shanghai International Film Festival, most of the publicity work has been done.
"Then let's rest and let them go their separate ways. After "Xiu Chun Dao 2" is released early next month, the premiere of "Tumor King" will be held."
"Well, okay. But it seems that in the second half of the year, there will be shadows of our company every month?"
Guo Fan's words are true, Lin Nan Films will exclusively produce, control the production, or participate The movies we invest in are from the summer season in early July to the Lunar New Year season, through New Year’s Eve, and then to the Spring Festival season.
...
Throughout the afternoon, news of various celebrities' failure in the stock market continued to pop up on the Internet and flooded the Internet.
...Fan Bingbing 220 million +, Zhang Ziyi 470 million, Nicholas Tse 250 million +, Zhou Xingchi 400 million... Liu Yan more than 17 million, Xie Nan...
This information has attracted the attention of countless netizens and made everyone empathize; but unfortunately, they can only succumb to Director Chen Da Under the headlines.
In other words, the focus of public opinion on the entire network has not shifted at all!
In the evening, Lin Nan sat in the garden blowing the evening breeze, and talked on the phone with his biological father, mainly discussing the latter's itinerary.
According to his idea, Lao Lintou can come over at the end of this month, play for a month first, and then wait to attend the wedding and take the main seat.
But Lin Nan obviously overestimated the weight of his words, and was retorted for a while:
"Um, what are you doing here this morning? Playing? You are so busy that you are suffocating yourself to death. Really? Do you have time to go around with me? Or do you have many acquaintances and friends in the capital? At the end of next month...half a month in advance..."
Good guy, Lin Nan just mentioned After saying this, Lao Lintou replied a lot.
But not to mention, his words showed that he was very thoughtful, and he had definitely planned and thought about it long ago.
"Da, let's not wait until the end of next month, but the end of next month. Come over early on the 20th?"
"Huh? That's okay! Just around the 20th... you How are you two?"
"It's been good."
"It's been a long time since you got married..."
Lin Nan listened to the emotion for as long as the phone call lasted.
It can also be heard from Old Lintou's tone that his mental state has relaxed a lot; but it can also be heard that he is obviously older.
Liu Yifei took the notebook and was already making the guest list. Write a little bit every day, check for omissions and fill them in, and try not to miss anyone.
Of course, Lin Nan and she will also find some friends to come over and check together to see if there is anything missing.
In addition, Lin Nan Pictures and Hongxingwu will also help prepare two lists for comparison and reference to add or delete personnel when setting the roster.
……
In a blink of an eye, it’s already the 15th of the month.
From early in the morning, Alibaba Pictures helped Director Chen share a considerable part of the "burden" of public opinion. Because the entire network, including the film and television entertainment industry, has another focus of attention.
The headlines of film and television entertainment information on major portal websites, as well as the top searches on Weibo - all are about the male and female protagonists of the movie "Three Lives Three Worlds" from Alibaba Pictures. Voted web link!
"Exclusively produced by Alibaba Pictures and adapted from the popular novel IP, the large-scale costume myth love movie "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" with the same name will officially start the online voting event at 10 o'clock this morning.
This time The activity aims to let every movie fan, audience, and fan choose the movie protagonist in his or her heart! Everyone can participate..."
I have to admit that although the industry is very concerned about this "unconventional" casting method, Repulsive and demeaning;
But this casting method is exciting and sought after by countless netizens and fans.
“After waiting for 10 days, it’s finally starting! I want to vote for Fan Bingbing...”
"It's my first time to participate in the casting of a blockbuster. I'm inexplicably excited and exciting, isn't it? Alibaba is indeed an industry disruptor, Ma Yun is awesome!"
"The one who is at the forefront today should be Are they all fans of various actors and stars?"
"Stay away from some wasp swarms and sting people..."
"Why are there so many 'lice'? It's so disgusting! ”
“Choose Yang Ying, she works very hard”
...
"I vote for Hu Ge! Fairy tale, fantasy..."
"Hu Ge is old, choose Li Yifeng!"
"Support Wu Yifan!"
“Don’t leave those old bacon out, they are an eyesore.”
...
With the arrival of ten o'clock in the morning, the popularity of "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" online has skyrocketed, and there is a tendency to shoulder all the "burden of public opinion" for Director Chen.
The entire film industry couldn't help but care about the film's online voting.
Because the production model of "popular IP + fan movies + great directors" was proposed by Alibaba Pictures, there are many industry participants.
The casting model of "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" this time is a more in-depth implementation of the "fan film" in the previous production model.
If it succeeds, everyone can feel free to follow suit.
The voting for the leading actors and actresses in the movie has begun, but at the same time, the Internet is also flooded with a steady stream of submissions.
To canvass, flatter, insinuate, smear, expose shortcomings, expose scandals...
As expected, it is true to that sentence - in the face of resources, everyone relies on their own means, and no one can do anything. Don't go to any lengths!
……
Near noon, several producers met again at Lin Nan Pictures.
Everyone checked the contract and completed the final signing of "Operation Mekong".
Lin Nan did not stay with these six families for dinner, because the ones who came were all deputies; and these people did not intend to stay longer, and hurried back with the signed contracts, as if the leaders above were in a hurry I have to wait to see the contract.
When Lin Nan returned home, he saw Shu Chang standing in front of Liu Yifei dancing and shouting something.
Miss Liu had a surprised expression on her face, and then a smile overflowed on her face, as if she had heard something very funny.
"What kind of dance are you doing?"
After parking the car, Lin Nan shouted to Shu Chang from a distance.
"How to talk? What is a master of dancing? Do you understand that I am performing?"
Shu Chang rolled his eyes and retorted to Lin Nan.
“So, what are you talking about? I can’t stop laughing.”
"In the online voting for Alibaba Pictures' "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms," my and Changchang's names were also on it..."
Halfway through the words, Liu Yifei couldn't help laughing again, and she and Shu Changchang Two of them laughed more happily than the other.
"Ahem, not only are Sissi and I's names on it, but the number of votes this morning is 'top of the list'!"
Shu Chang stood there with his hands crossed on his chest, his chin He raised his head slightly and faced Liu Yifei sitting in front of her.
“How many are at the top?”
"Currently, I am first and she is second."
Liu Yifei stretched out her right index finger and pointed lightly at herself, then pointed at Shu Chang, and her smile bloomed again.
"Director Lin, please comment. I have played the role of a vixen before, and received rave reviews! To be ranked second? Humph, you have no vision!"
