Chapter 660: Local Snake
"Apple Weekly" is now only published in Xiangjiang and Baodao, and its circulation is not very large, so the two pieces of news they produced are mainly spread in some markets in Xiangjiang, and not many people know about it outside of Xiangjiang.
In mainland China, those who know this news are basically netizens who frequently surf the Internet.
When mainland netizens saw the news about Yu Dong, their first feeling was surprise, then disbelief. Later, when they saw the official complaint posted with a photo of Yu Dong hugging a "strange woman", they all wanted to laugh.
Netizens who often surf the Deep Space website have almost all seen photos of Cheng Yanqiu. Photos of Yu Dong and Cheng Yanqiu on stage at the Hollywood Bowl were previously posted on Deep Space.
Cats are better, basically it all depends on what Cheng Yanqiu looks like.
And even if the cat is not good, he will definitely look for the current news on TV.
Netizens regarded the news from Apple Weekly as a joke. Even when they saw the news about Hu Jing, they firmly believed that the news about Hu Jing was fake without seeking verification.
Because this newspaper is so outrageous that it has no credibility at all.
[Captain Meat: I'm vomiting. If Shen Kong can't win this case, then I really can't understand the laxity of Xiangjiang's laws.]
[Master Ronald: Bro, Xiangjiang’s laws are not loose, but special. 】
【Meat Governor: Oh.】
[Fat Man Li Zhuzhu: To be honest, if it hadn’t been for Yu Dong’s incident, I wouldn’t have known about Apple Weekly. Are they famous? 】
[Princess Yuezhi: It is just an entertainment newspaper with no bottom line. Many people in Xiangjiang know about it, so it has little influence. 】
[Jin Kefan: Even if I’m afraid, some people will believe it. As long as one person believes the news, the impact it will have will be there.]
[Flying Big Stupid Bear: That’s right, even quite right.]
[Master Ronald:...]
[Princess Yuezhi: It depends on what Deep Space will do about this matter. We can just treat it as a joke. To be honest, when I saw this newspaper, I laughed all day long. 】
[No. 1 in the world: I’m okay, I only laughed for a long time. 】
…
Deep Space Company submitted a lawyer's letter to Next Media, but they did not feel that the matter could be resolved smoothly. After all, there were many constraints on what Deep Space could do in Hong Kong.
The "Apple Weekly" thing is just a small thing, there are other more disgusting things.
In late October, the filming of "Infernal Affairs 1" officially started. The production started very smoothly, but it encountered a series of troubles later on.
The next day, there was a scene in a store. The store was rented out after informing the owner in advance. The filming ended in one day.
However, on the day the shooting started, a group of people came to the store. When these people arrived at the store, they said that the boss owed them money and insisted on staying there and not allowing them to start shooting.
The boss was not at the scene, so the film crew called the boss again. After the boss arrived, and after chatting for a long time, the group of people said, "We found the wrong person," and then left.
After a long time of fussing, it seemed that the shooting time was almost running out. The crew was ready to speed up the progress, but as soon as the machine was set up, another group of people came into the store.
These people did not say that the boss owed them money, but that the landlord of this store owed them money.
It's even harder to find a landlord. Even if you call to coordinate, I'm afraid a day will pass.
Besides, Liu Weiqiang is not a fool. If he didn't react when the first group of people came, forget it. If he didn't react when the second group of people came, then all his years of work would have been in vain.
Liu Weiqiang has filmed Young and Dangerous, so he knows these things very well.
It was definitely impossible to shoot that day, so Liu Weiqiang put that scene on hold and filmed subsequent scenes.
But changing the scene still doesn't work, people will still come to make trouble for various reasons.
These people were not aggressive, but they just hung around and affected the shooting progress.
Later, Liu Weiqiang specifically asked the person who looked like the leader and probably figured out the situation.
It turned out that due to the selection of roles at that time, Deep Space Company did not use Zeng Zhiwei, nor did they use the actors recommended by Zeng Zhiwei. Therefore, Zeng Zhiwei held a grudge and took advantage of their filming in Hong Kong to do this thing.
Before the filming of the movie, Liu Weiqiang was worried that this kind of thing would happen. Zeng Zhiwei didn't come to him again for such a long time. He thought the matter was over, but what he didn't expect was that what he was afraid of still happened.
.
If it were someone else, Liu Weiqiang wouldn't be afraid. He has been in this business for so many years and still has connections. He can solve ordinary minor situations.
However, Zeng Zhiwei's power in Xiangjiang is extraordinary, and Liu Weiqiang does not dare to offend him.
Liu Weiqiang called Zeng Zhiwei that day, thinking of saying a few nice words to Zeng Zhiwei and lowering his attitude so that Zeng Zhiwei would not cause trouble to them again.
But Zeng Zhiwei's attitude is very firm. If he wants to shoot smoothly, he can replace all the actors he previously listed on the list, as well as himself. He also wants to get a role in "Infernal Affairs 1", either
Han Chen, the boss of the blackboard, may be Huang Zhicheng, Chen Yongren’s boss.
Of course Liu Weiqiang cannot agree to this. The actor has already been decided. If he wants to replace Zeng Zhiwei and the actors he recommended, he will offend the group of people who have been decided before.
Besides, Liu Weiqiang has no right to agree to Zeng Zhiwei. He is just a director, and it is not his turn to decide the casting.
He couldn't handle Zeng Zhiwei himself, so he had no choice but to ask the Deep Space Company for help.
When Yu Dong learned about this, his first reaction was to stop filming in Hong Kong and move the filming location to the mainland. Anyway, "Infernal Affairs" does not have high environmental requirements and there are many filming locations in the mainland.
When Yu Liang asked him for his opinion, he told Yu Liang his own opinion.
"I had considered shooting in the Mainland before, but after comprehensive consideration, I chose Hong Kong. Now it seems that the choice at that time was still lack of consideration. I just took advantage of this opportunity to move the filming location to the Mainland. Fortunately, they made trouble
The commotion started relatively early, and it would be really difficult for us to cause trouble if it happens again in the middle of filming."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yu Liang said with a smile: "They are not well-intentioned, they just want the role, so they make trouble before the filming of the movie has even started. If there are already a lot of filming,
, they also know that the roles cannot be changed."
"Well, let's change it and tell Liu Weiqiang not to worry and spend another two months looking for a new filming location."
"It's easy to find a filming location, it takes less than two months." After saying this, Yiliang sighed slightly, "But no matter what, moving the location like this will still cause losses. We are still tied up in Xiangjiang, which is a bit
Disaster."
Yu Dong smiled and comforted: "Don't take the market in Xiangjiang too seriously, and you don't have to be so unhappy and feel aggrieved. The withdrawal of the stall this time is not a compromise, let alone a surrender, but a demonstration. Let them
We know that this three-acre area of Xiangjiang is not important to us, we can go there at any time and leave at any time."
Listening to Yu Dong comforting himself, Yu Liang said with a smile: "I am not discouraged, I just feel sorry for the money. As for Zeng Zhiwei, we have already started to deal with him."
"How are you going to deal with it?"
Yu Liang explained, "Previously Baodao Yanping Film Company invited Ning Jing to participate in the movie "Where is My Home", but we declined because we heard that Zhu Yanping was also planning to recruit Zeng Zhiwei to participate. We declined.
After that, they did find Eric Tsang, and now the film is about to be filmed and is ready to be released next year. But if nothing else happens, the release plan of "Where Is My Home" should be unexpected."
Yu Dong pondered: "Isn't this too misleading to Zhu Yanping?"
Yu Liang smiled and said: "There is no way. I reminded him tactfully before that if he chose Zeng Zhiwei, we would refuse to cooperate, but in the end he chose Zeng Zhiwei instead of us. Since he chose to side with us, he got the leadership of the side.
He should also bear the disadvantages brought by taking sides, and I don’t think Zhu Yan is at a loss."
Yu Dong sighed slightly. From Zhu Yanping's point of view, he must have felt that he was wronged. Maybe he didn't even understand the euphemistic expression of Yili, so he offended Shen Kong in a confused way.
But Deep Sky must do this. If Zhu Yanping has clearly taken a stand this time and Deep Sky has not taken any action, then no one will take Deep Sky seriously in the future.
Killing chickens to scare monkeys has been around since ancient times, but Zhu Yanping unfortunately became that chicken.
As for the fact that Yu Li was so confident in saying that the release plan of "Where is My Home" would be unexpected, Yu Dong didn't have any doubts.
With Deep Space's current relationship with China Film, it is natural that it can do this. It doesn't even need to borrow the help of China Film, Deep Space can do it on its own.
It doesn’t even matter whether their movie can be released. As long as Deep Space also releases a movie when "Where Is My Home" is released, presumably no theater chain will be willing to release "Where Is My Home".
In the mainland film and television industry, it is very easy for Deep Space to embarrass anyone.
There are many methods and the means are simple.
"In addition to the three-place co-production of "Where Is My Home", Eric Tsang also has two other films that he wants to release in the mainland, namely "The New Man" and "Star Wish". Although he plays a supporting role in them,
But as long as it happens, we don't want the movie to be released."
Yu Dong raised his eyebrows. The number of chickens killed now was a bit too much, but the more chickens were killed, the better the deterrent effect would be.
…
The day after Deep Space was about to find another filming location in the mainland, Simon Yam, who plays Han Chen, called Yuliang about this matter.
When I received the call from Simon Yam, I was quite surprised.
"Mr. Ren, what's the reason for the call?"
Ren Dahua said in substandard Mandarin: "Mr. Yu, just call me Ahua. I'm calling you this time because I want to talk about the filming of the movie. I heard that the crew met a little bit in Xiangjiang.
Trouble, are you planning to move to the mainland?"
Yu Liang smiled and said: "This is indeed the case. For various reasons, we are planning to move to the mainland to continue filming "Infernal Affairs 1". Don't worry, Mr. Ren, we will try our best to coordinate and not waste your time."
"No, no, no, I'm not worried about my own time. I just want to say, moving it around like this will be a waste of your financial, material and human resources."
Yu Liang smiled and nodded: "It will indeed be a waste, but I believe that if this price can make the movie shoot smoothly, it will be very worthwhile."
"Actually, you don't have to move to the mainland. You can continue to shoot in Hong Kong." When talking about this, Simon Yam lowered his voice, "The problem with the movie shooting should be related to Eric Tsang, right?"
Yuliang didn't hide it, nodded and said: "It is indeed related to him."
"Actually, this matter is very simple. I can help him come forward and tell him not to cause trouble. In this case, you can continue filming in Xiangjiang."
Yu Liang roughly understood what Ren Dahua meant. Ren Dahua wanted to be a peacemaker in the middle and seek mediation from Zeng Zhiwei to help them solve the problem.
In fact, I know a little bit about the situation in Ren Dahua's family.
Ren Dahua has an older brother who is quite powerful in Xiangjiang. If Ren Dahua's brother is willing to come forward, this matter can naturally be resolved easily.
But Yuliang had never thought of going to Yam Dahua before, because he felt that it was completely unnecessary to do Yam Dahua's favor for this matter, and since the relationship between Shen Kong and Zeng Zhiwei had reached this point, there was definitely no room for maneuver.
Since there is no room left, there is no need for a peacemaker.
Moreover, Yiliang did not approach Ren Dahua about this matter before. Now that Ren Dahua has taken the initiative, he will naturally not take up the matter.
Yu Liang smiled and asked: "Mr. Ren, aren't you willing to come to the mainland to film?"
Ren Dahua was stunned by Yu Liang's question.
When making this phone call, Ren Dahua was still quite confused. After all, he had to ask his brother for this matter.
But after thinking about it, he still made the call because he didn't want Deep Space Company to suffer setbacks because of this matter.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Although the contact time is not long, Ren Dahua can see that Deep Space is a good company that pays great attention to its works. If such a good company is because of the encounter in Xiangjiang
When trouble comes and he loses confidence in Xiangjiang, this will make him feel very sad.
Ren Dahua thought that now that he offered to help, Yiliang would be very happy. After all, in this way, deep space would not have to waste manpower, material and financial resources to go to the mainland for filming again, and the movie could be shot faster, but he did not expect that Yiliang would suddenly
Ask this question.
It was as if he was making this call for himself.
He quickly explained: "Mr. Yu, that's not what I meant. As long as it's filming, you can do it anywhere, whether it's the Mainland or Hong Kong. I mainly consider your company's efforts this time..."
After listening to Ren Dahua's words, Yu Li said with a smile: "Ah Hua, you don't have to worry about this, just come to the mainland to film safely. This matter is a foregone conclusion. Now even if Zeng Zhiwei kneels down and begs us to go to Xiangjiang to continue.
We will never go back when filming "Infernal Affairs"."
When Ren Dahua heard this, he was stunned again. He didn't expect Deep Space Company to be so tough. He was obviously going to have a fight with Zeng Zhiwei.
As for the conflict between Deep Space and Zeng Zhiwei, Simon Yam believes that Deep Space must have the upper hand in the world. Let’s not talk about the mainland, let’s talk about Hollywood. The power of Deep Space has penetrated deeply. If Zeng Zhiwei wants to
It is basically impossible to develop in Hollywood.
But it’s hard to say that this three-thirds of an acre of land in Xiangjiang is hard to say. Zeng Zhiwei is a local snake, and he has many ways to fight against deep space here.
