I am a director, but I have the skills of an actor

Chapter 274 Rectification
When Wanqingshan was heading to the Magic City Airport to take a flight back to the capital, the map cannon at the launch conference of "Operation Sword" was also reported.

'Wan Qingshan bluntly said that there are too many bad films in the film market now! '

'Wan Qingshan criticized Liu Dehua for making money without caring about his fans! '
'Actors must be worthy of the money fans spend on movie tickets! '

,,,,,

Although Wan Qingshan was alluding to Liu Dehua, the media directly wrote Liu Dehua in the news headline for the sake of topic.

The title said Andy Lau, and the content was also written in Spring and Autumn style. It almost didn't report that Cheng Wan Qingshan directly said that Andy Lau acted in bad movies to make money.

But it can only be a close call. After all, Wanqingshan is now very powerful. If it were really realistic and Wanqingshan got angry and pursued it, it would be troublesome.

"Damn it, Wan Qingshan is taking a blind shot by criticizing Liu Dehua!"

"I think Wan Qingshan is right. If Andy Lau acts in a bad movie, is he worthy of the fans who go to the cinema for him?"

"This time I support Director Wan. I used to be a fan of Andy Lau, but this time I really lost my fandom.

When Andy Lau apologized, he only said that he had a poor sense of film selection. You have been an actor for decades, and you can’t even choose a script. Who would believe it? "

"Wan Qingshan disrespects his seniors so much. When Andy Lau debuted, he wasn't even born yet!"

"Wan Qingshan is so arrogant. He dared to criticize Feng Xiaogang and Wu Yusen before. Now that he has won the Oscar for Best Director, he thinks he is superior to others. He criticizes everyone from a high position and has no respect for his predecessors at all!"

"If you respect your seniors, you have to be like them. Feng Xiaogang was like that. He first criticized Director Wan's movies as rubbish and then criticized Wu Yusen. That's right. Look at "Red Cliff" made by Wu Yusen.

As for Andy Lau, we can’t say that he makes money by acting in bad movies. "

"I stand as a director. Today's stars receive high salaries because they have the support of fans.

As Director Wan said, capital is not for charity. If you give this salary, you have to earn it back from fans.

Celebrities receive millions or tens of millions in remuneration. It can be said that they are given by fans, so celebrities must live up to their fans. "

"It's not Wan Qingshan's turn to say anything. We fans didn't say anything, and he just criticized Andy Lau. Who does he think he is?"

"Fuck, you can't say that Andy Lau acted in bad movies. Let me tell you, it's because of people like you that celebrities dare to act in bad movies without restraint!"

"Liu Dehua has already apologized, but he didn't choose the script well! He has already apologized, but what else does he want to do!"

"The script wasn't chosen! After decades of being an actor, he still can't read the script? Then why should he be an actor?
I even apologized, what do you want!Don't you think you can't criticize after you've apologized?
Then I'll sell you a crappy air conditioner, and I'll apologize to you. Don't ask me to replace the air conditioner, and don't ask me to pay for it!

You will still have to buy from me in the future, and I will be able to sell crappy air conditioners in the future. You cannot criticize me because I have apologized. "

"In short, it's not the junior Wan Qingshan's turn to criticize!"

"Hey, Director Wan didn't criticize Andy Lau. There is a video on the Internet. In the video, Director Wan didn't say it was Andy Lau. He didn't even say "The Secret of Fuchun Mountain Residence" is a bad movie."

When the media released the news, Ren Zhonglun also asked people to upload the complete video of the "Operation Sword" launch conference to Shanghai Film's official Weibo.

With the launch conference video, Andy Lau's fans knew clearly that Wan Qingshan was talking about Andy Lau, but they couldn't say anything and could only hold it in.

The discussion became more and more heated, and in the afternoon, Andy Lau posted a comment on Weibo.

"Director Wan's criticism is that I will strive to act in good movies in the future and be worthy of the support of my fans."

After Liu Dehua posted this Weibo, the popularity instantly increased, and soon after, Tong Dawei, the actor of "Tianji Fuchun Mountain Residence" and others also posted such Weibo.

As soon as their Weibo posts came out, the subject of heated discussion among netizens changed. After all, Andy Lau and the others had said so, so what else could they say?
The hot topics of discussion have become Li Lianjie and Yang Mi!
The Spring and Autumn Report in the media clearly stated that the three movies Wan Qingshan was talking about were "Little Times", "Fu Chun Mountain Residence" and "Tianji Fuchun Mountain Residence".

"Besides "Sword and Fairy III" and "Gong Lock Heart Jade", what other drama can Yang Mi watch? She just wants to make money now!"

"You only know now. Think about how Yang Mi used to sell pillows and character models. Things that cost more than ten yuan can be sold for hundreds of yuan, and you will know who she is!"

"Li Lienjie is old, he just wants to make money. The previous "White Snake", "King of Kung Fu", and this time "Fuji Detective" are all bad movies!"

"I think "Fuji Detective" is pretty good, quite funny!"

"You actually found that mentally retarded movie funny. Anyway, I will never watch Jet Li's movie again."

“I think Cheng Long’s movies are not as good as before.

Not to mention fighting, I can understand that I am too old to fight, but many of his current movies follow the same routine, deliberately sensationalizing! "

"They are old, have fame and honors, so naturally they only want to make money."

"Li Lienjie, I think it's okay. He only has a few bad movies. Not to mention old movies, "Fearless", "Fearless", "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" and "Ocean Paradise" are all good!"

“Then I can’t act in two good movies, so I’ll just act in a bad one.

This is not like that Huang Xiaoming, who acted in a good movie and then rewarded himself with a greasy movie.

Come on, every movie we go to see costs money. Even if we can’t ask every movie to be good, we still have to pass it. "

"I think it's acceptable. It's normal to star in a few good films and then have one bad one.

As Wan Qingshan said, sometimes bad movies are not under the control of actors. "

"Anyway, I can't accept it. I can't spend money to eat in a restaurant. This meal is delicious, but the next meal will be terrible.

If this is the case, then I would rather eat in a restaurant where the food is average but the taste is guaranteed to be stable. "

,,,,,

The next day, there was still a lot of buzz on the Internet. Ren Zhonglun found someone to hype "Operation Sword", slowly turning the public's attention to "Operation Sword".

Only by linking "Operation Sharp Sword" to what Wan Qingshan said, and thinking of what Wan Qingshan said, would think of "Operation Sharp Sword", otherwise Wan Qingshan's map cannon will be blinded.

When Ren Zhonglun was looking for someone to hype up, Wan Qingshan was in the office of Qingshan Media, frowning while looking at the documents.

"Director Lu Yang, I have no objection, but what's going on with the actor?"

What is on the file is the movie "Derailment", which is a collaboration with Penguin and based on the Internet + film and television operation.

The script was written in late June and was written by a new member of the screenwriting team.

At that time, Tian Li passed the script to Wan Qingshan in Malaysia.

Wan Qingshan read the script, and although the plot was a little messy, it was okay.

A couple who met on a blind date often quarreled over rice, oil, and salt after a few years of marriage because of poor conditions.

Because my wife used to be looked down upon by her friends, and her family was a bit patriarchal, so when she appeared in front of her friends and family, she always wore fake designer clothes and pretended that she was living a good life.

One day, her family came to her because she lacked tuition for her younger brother to study abroad.

Because she had been pretending to be a famous brand, her family thought she was living a good life and had money, so they wanted her to sponsor her younger brother's tuition.

She wanted to save face and didn't want to be looked down upon by her family. She refused to tell the truth and said she had no money. Instead, she agreed that she would pay for it.

She agreed, but she didn't have enough money, so after much thought, she wanted her husband to come along.

Her husband is unwilling to pay because the monthly mortgage payment is already overwhelming him.

Her husband was unwilling to provide money, and no one of her friends was willing to lend her money, so she had no choice but to look for her ex-boyfriend, whom she met some time ago.

My ex-boyfriend used to be poor, but he has become rich in recent years. He is willing to borrow money, but the money is conditional on her being with him once.

After hearing the conditions, she refused!

Later, her family kept urging her to pay for her brother's tuition, but her husband was unwilling to pay, so she refused to tell the truth to her family.

After quarreling with her husband several times over money, she went to see her ex-boyfriend.

One afternoon, she got the money and transferred it to her family.

Once, there was a second time. Because she wanted to buy a genuine luxury product, she went to find her ex-boyfriend again.

Then she fell in love step by step. She wanted genuine luxury shoes and all the luxury things that others used. She wanted them all because of her comparison mentality. If she wanted them, she could only go to her ex-boyfriend.

After a while, her husband found out and wanted to divorce her!

"Just divorce, Ye Le. If you hadn't given me the money, would I have come to this point? Let me tell you, we got divorced all because of you."

"Because of me? Haha, Zhu Ying, it doesn't matter if your brother goes to college in China. I can pay for the tuition of several thousand yuan.

But I have to study abroad for 10,000+ a year. You think my money comes from the strong wind.

I still have to pay the mortgage every month. If you ask me to pay this amount, you are forcing me to die! "

"Then I can only blame you for not having the ability. The dead salary you get every month is not enough for others to earn in a day. After paying the mortgage with your monthly salary, how much can you still have left? Food and use over the years, then It’s not like spending my money.”

"Yes, blame me, blame me for being poor, but when we got married, didn't you know that this was my condition?"

"In short, the reason why we have reached this point is because you are poor!"

"I am poor, but with your family's conditions, you dare to support your brother to study abroad. I think the whole family is out of their minds."

"Your whole family is crazy. My family is supporting my brother to study abroad. We just don't want to end up like you and have no future!"

"Haha, Zhu Ying, for the sake of being a couple over the years, I remind you, you can eat as much as you have the ability!"

"Ye Le! There is no need for you to educate me with such cowardly thoughts!" After the divorce, Zhu Ying resigned and dedicated herself to being her ex-boyfriend's lover and living a prosperous life.

But within a year, she was abandoned because her ex-boyfriend found a younger and more beautiful lover.

"Yihui, you can't do this to me. We have feelings for each other. You can't do this to me!"

"Emotional shit, Zhu Ying, I came to you before, just because I was dumped by you, and I was unwilling to accept it, but now I'm tired of playing, I let it go, you get out of here!"

At the end of the movie, Zhu Ying walked down the street in despair.

The main plot is very clear, but the branch plots are a bit messy. This may be because the main plot is not enough, or it may be that the new screenwriter wants to put everything in.

So I also used a lot of paragraphs to describe how good the relationship between Zhu Ying and her brother was, and I also used a lot of pen and ink to write about it. Ye Le met his former ex-girlfriend and wanted to compare it with Zhu Ying.

Wan Qingshan asked the screenwriter to cut off useless and trivial branch plots, use only the main plot, and make an eight- to ten-minute movie.

After the script was revised later, Wan Qingshan called Ren Yuxin and negotiated on the phone that Penguin Film and Television would account for 40% of the investment, and then asked Cheng Ting to sign the contract with Ren Yuxin on behalf of Qingshan Media.

As soon as the contract was signed, Cheng Ting followed Wan Qingshan's instructions and found directors and actors with average reputations.

The director found Lu Yang, and "Detective Chinatown" made Lu Yang famous, but that was a few years ago. Lu Yang has not released a new film in the past few years, and his reputation has long since faded.

Wan Qingshan had no objection to finding Lu Yang to film, but I really don’t know how Cheng Ting found this actor.

"Mr. Wan, didn't you say you are looking for someone with an average reputation? Their reputations must meet the requirements." Cheng Ting, who did not leave after submitting the documents, quickly replied.

Yang Ying, Lei Jiaying, and Guo Jingfei, these three people have very low reputations now.

Lei Jiaying and Guo Jingfei may look familiar to the audience, but they are not well-known.

Although Yang Ying has acted in several movies before, she has also starred in two "Tai Chi" movies. At the beginning of the year, she was named one of the new Four Little Actresses.

However, the two "Tai Chi" films did not make her popular, and she was rated as one of the Four Little Actresses. This was all due to her boyfriend Huang Xiaoming.

And now the title of Si Xiaohuadan is of no use to fame.

Not to mention that the last two editions of the Four Girls are still dominating the screen. There are so many female stars in the industry now. Who will pay too much attention to the current edition of the Four Girls?

Yang Ying will only become famous if she participates in "Running Man" in the future. Now, she is really not famous.

“An actor’s reputation meets the requirements, but what about his acting skills?
Did I say you don’t even need acting skills?
Were you present when the actors were being auditioned? "

Wan Qingshan stared closely at Cheng Ting. If Cheng Ting said he was present during the interview, Cheng Ting would be fired immediately.

Cheng Ting was here, but she chose Yang Ying. Either Cheng Ting's taste was so bad that she couldn't tell what acting was, or she took advantage of Huang Xiaoming.

Either way, Cheng Ting is not suitable to continue sitting in the position of manager of the film production department.

"Mr. Wan, um, on the day of the interview, there were a lot of things going on in the company, so I didn't go. I asked Deputy Manager Chen to go."

Wan Qingshan looked deeply at Cheng Ting, "Just wait!"

Cheng Ting felt relieved. He felt that Wan Qingshan was very dissatisfied with the film production department and wanted to go under the knife.

If he had answered a wrong word just now, I'm afraid the knife would have fallen on his head.

Wan Qingshan took out his mobile phone and called Lu Yang.

As soon as the call was connected, Wan Qingshan put the phone on the table and turned on the loudspeaker.

"Wan Dao!"

"Lu Yang, you are the director of the movie "Derailed". You should be present when the actors are being interviewed!"

"What's wrong here, Director Wan?"

"Did you choose the result of the interview, or who chose it?"

On the phone, there was no reply from Lu Yang for a while.

"Lu Yang, you have been my assistant director twice, so you should know my temper, and you still want to hide it from me?"

"Director Wan, I'm not trying to hide it from you. The first female lead was chosen by Mr. Chen, and the first and second male lead were decided by Mr. Chen and I after discussion."

"Lu Yang, your relationship with me is pretty good, right?"

"I will never forget the teachings and cultivation you gave me, Wan Dao!"

"Then when you cooperate with Qingshan Media, if this happens again and you name a specific actor, just tell me directly!"

"Yes, yes, Director Wan, I remember.

Director Wan, this time it was because Mr. Chen said that some things happened later in the movie. Director Wan, you also know it, and the Penguin people didn’t have any objections, so I didn’t think much about it. "

Wan Qingshan frowned and said, "Lu Yang, the female lead in "Derailed" is now available. Among the actresses who came for interviews before, think about whether there are any suitable ones. If there are suitable ones, you can contact them directly. I will send them later. Someone go over and assist you.”

"Okay, Director Wan!"

After hanging up the phone, Wan Qingshan looked up at Cheng Ting, who looked nervous.

"Mr. Cheng, you heard that Mr. Chen actually said that I know everything. I want to ask you, what do I know?
Or are you using my name to make Mr. Chen think that I know something? "

"No, no, Mr. Wan, I definitely didn't give any orders in your name.

Mr. Wan, I was negligent in my duties this time, but I really didn’t know that Deputy Manager Chen would do such a thing. "Cheng Ting replied in a panic.

"I don't care if you don't know the person of Deputy Manager Chen beforehand. In short, this is a matter for your film production department.

I only give you one chance. If this happens again in the future, you won’t come. "

"Yes, yes!" Cheng Ting breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied.

“Go tell the HR department and ask them to re-elect the deputy manager of the film production department.

You tell Mr. Chen to get lost. Please handle the rest of "Derailment" in person for me. I don't want to see anything like this again. "

"Yes, Mr. Wan, I will definitely get it done!"

"Okay, you go out!"

As soon as Cheng Ting left, Wan Qingshan called Ren Yuxin.

"Mr. Ren, could I please help you?"

"Mr. Wan, why do you still use the word trouble? If you ask me something, I will do whatever I can."

Ever since Ma Huateng resigned to start the omniscience company with Wan Qingshan, Ren Yuxin's attitude towards Wan Qingshan has become more and more respectful, almost the same as when he faced Ma Huateng.

"Mr. Ren, the matter is very simple. I just want to trouble you to replace someone on the "Derailed" crew. I think the original person was not very suitable.

Mr. Ren, some things are normal in the industry, but I personally don’t like them very much.

It’s not that I’m arrogant, my way of doing things is that I invest money just to make money.

Those things affect the quality of the movie and affect my money making.

Because of those things, I just fired a deputy department manager in my company.

To avoid future disputes that would affect our relationship, I would like to trouble Mr. Ren to find someone else to join the crew. "

boom!
There was a sound of patting the table on the phone, and then Ren Yuxin's voice immediately rang.

"Mr. Wan, I'm sorry, it was my negligence. So, I will call the person back immediately, and I won't send anyone back later.

I feel relieved to cooperate with you, Mr. Wan. I only sent people before because people from the company said that it would be better to follow normal procedures.

Now that it has affected cooperation, I won’t send this person! "

"Mr. Ren, I don't have a problem with whether you send people over there, as long as you don't do those things on the set, that's fine."

"We won't send it, we won't send it. I'm sorry, Mr. Wan, it's affecting your side."

"it's okay no problem!"

After hanging up the phone, Wan Qingshan started to think about it.

Mr. Chen's behavior is definitely the tip of the iceberg of the company and must be rectified, otherwise it will seriously affect the company's interests.

He has been managing the company for half a year, and he can start to do some things.

Wan Qingshan thought about it for a long time and called Chen Yanfeng and asked him to transfer some financial accountants from Chen's company to help.

To rectify the company, we can only start with the finance department.

With so many departments, only the finance department needs to be rectified. People in the finance department are enriching their own pockets, which can usually be reflected in the financial statements, while other departments are difficult to check.

We can only use the financial department to shock the company owners and make them restrain themselves, and then arrange for people to come in to investigate.
