Chapter 260

That year, entertainment industry, main text volume, chapter 405, protecting Shu... Bao, dual male leads, who could have thought that a movie, a war of words between two actors, would be so big?

The mainland film and television circle and the Hong Kong film and television circle have fully opened fire!

Hundreds of stars, actors, and film people have taken sides to participate in the war, some active, some following the crowd.

With *Special Identity* as the base point, the contradictions and grievances accumulated over more than ten years have been completely ignited.

On the internet, mainland netizens are even more powerful, attacking cities and seizing land all the way. After all, the number of people is dominant!

……

Waking up, there are some different things in the headlines of the portal websites.

Donnie Yen's number one supporter, Shu Qi, was blasted by netizens.

In one night, on the internet, in Tieba, especially under her Weibo, it was occupied by a large number of her early category-three movie shots and photos, which can even be described as piled up.

Besides that, there are all kinds of foul language, mockery, insults, and humiliation.

Her sentence: "I want to put on the clothes I took off one by one", has nakedly become a joke, being teased repeatedly.

The matter has developed to this point, and there is a trend of being out of control.

……

Lin Nan met Mani Fok who flew from Hong Kong in the company, and she also brought someone.

"Lin Dao, see you again."

"Hello Lin Dao."

"Sit down, all of you."

Lin Nan and these two hadn't seen each other for more than a month, and had met more than once during the filming of *Bad Genius*.

"Lin Dao, we have already read the script, the company wants Bai Bing to play the female lead."

Just after sitting down, Mani Fok couldn't wait to speak.

Bai Bing on the side, although she always maintained a smile, Lin Nan is a director, he can see that Bai Bing is a bit nervous.

"I said, besides the two leads, other roles are given to Yinghuang, as long as the deviation is not too big. If it doesn't meet the requirements and is rejected by Lu Yang, I won't care."

Lin Nan said with a chuckle, which was considered a default to Mani Fok's words.

"Thank you Lin Dao, I will act seriously." Bai Bing thanked him repeatedly.

Mani Fok showed a smile; the first time they got the script, the company was screening actresses.

After choosing and choosing, Bai Bing was the most suitable, especially since she and Lin Nan are fellow villagers, which is very bonus points.

"Let's talk about the investment ratio." Lin Nan spoke first.

Hearing this, Mani Fok straightened her back subconsciously.

"Lin Dao, please speak."

"According to my plan, the investment for this movie will not exceed 80 million, and Yinghuang uses its own artists, which can save even more."

"Then how much investment share can we get."

Mani Fok is worthy of being a capable general under Yang Shoucheng; the tone of her speech this time is not as gentle as just now.

"Thirty percent!"

Lin Nan pressed Mani Fok and said this number. Only to see the latter frown, as if thinking about something.

"But for *Ip Man* back then, we got forty percent!

Lin Dao, let's make it forty percent, after all, all the logistics work of the crew in Hong Kong is done by Yinghuang."

"Yinghuang can invest 30 million." Lin Nan let go a little.

He made major modifications to *Kung Fu Jungle*, especially in the plot and character personality shaping.

Dual male lead setting, one positive and one evil!

Lin Nan's box office expectations for this movie are not small. Hope Lu Yang can take a few more steps forward!

"Good, 30 million is 30 million."

Mani Fok was very straightforward; she could see that this was Lin Nan's biggest concession.

"Then when will it start filming?"

"Director Lu Yang will be back in a few days, and will go to Yinghuang at that time. As for the specific start of filming, we have to wait for Wang Baoqiang to finish filming *Lost in Thailand*, it will probably start in May, there are still two months."

……

When Mani Fok took Bai Bing out, Lin Nan shouted.

"Lin Dao?"

"Go back and tell Chairman Yeung, after this movie, if there are no accidents, the *Ip Man* series can be restarted."

The eyes of the two women instantly lit up.

Mani Fok was pleasantly surprised, "Ah? Okay, I will definitely convey it to Chairman Yeung."

…………

In the afternoon, there was gossip news in the media.

"Yinghuang executive Mani Fok, accompanied artist Bai Bing, went to Lin Nan Pictures. A few hours later, left with a smile..."

"Lin Nan Pictures and Yinghuang, suspected of having new cooperation?"

"Lin Dao Nan wouldn't have eaten the sugar-coated bullet, right? By the way, Bai Bing is also very beautiful! Princess Yushu."

"The one upstairs is farting! He already has Liu Yifei..."

……

The gossip spread very quickly, and then a few people rushed over to inquire about the news.

"This old thing Yang Shoucheng, came to pry the wall again?"

Han Sanping's cognition made Lin Nan very speechless, what is prying the wall?

"It's just an action movie, promised to Chairman Yeung when filming *Bad Genius*, this time it's directed by Lu Yang."

Now, Han Sanping was even less calm, "*Brotherhood of Blades* cost 30 million, box office 168 million, what about this one?"

"About 80 million budget, we'll talk if there's a deviation later."

"Decided? Can China Film participate in the investment?"

"Hahaha, it's already settled."

Not getting the answer he wanted, Han Sanping hung up the phone while cursing, shouting that Yang Shoucheng had crossed the line.

……

Enlight, Wanda, Shanghai Film, Xi'an Film, and other companies also came to inquire as usual, and all left disappointed.

……

In one night, Shu Qi deleted thousands of her Weibo posts and canceled her account.

In the eyes of people in the circle, this behavior is a bit incredible.

Her agency stated that they would use litigation means to protect their artists against online violence.

But who knew, they were slapped in the face by quite a few well-known lawyers:

"Because Shu Qi's category-three movies were not released in the mainland, it does not constitute infringement of reputation and portrait rights, if it is publicly distributed photos, there is even less infringement of privacy..."

……

Just as Lin Nan was explaining to Liu Yifei that Mani Fok brought Bai Bing to talk about movie matters, Feng Xiaogang opened fire on the internet!

"... I cannot accept that some people actually use such cruel language to insult her..."

"I want to say to those who insult her, scolding you as beasts is an insult to beasts... you are worse than beasts..."

…………

Feng Xiaogang's Weibo post had more than 70,000 comments overnight, a small part was cheering for him, and the vast majority were scolding him!

The second post came out quickly: "I am scolding the beasts who have no human taste, how come so many 'people' stretched their necks and opened their mouths to receive the scolding... scolding out so many beasts, it's an eye-opener..."

In a blink of an eye, there were another 30,000 comments, "Scolding Shu Qi is a beast, then what are you who scold netizens?"

The third Weibo post was even more ruthless: "Today the national veterinarians are busy crazy, the beasts have concentrated outbreaks and ran out..."

……

Feng Xiaogang fought ten thousand alone, just guarding the computer like this.

People in the circle were all watching the fun, is Director Feng's *Back to 1942* still filming?

In the afternoon, a post from Tianya spread across the internet.

There wasn't a single scolding word in the post.

Instead, it first reviewed the incidents where mainland actors like Wu Jing and Shi Xiaolong were brutally suppressed by Hong Kong actors. And the incident where actors of the *Special Identity* crew were fired for supporting Zhao Wenzhuo.

Subsequently, it questioned Feng Xiaogang, why he had never supported mainland actors online before, and cited examples of actresses like Fan Bingbing and Li Bingbing being besieged by netizens, why only specifically care for and favor Shu Qi?

The last question was the highlight: "Is it really as the netizens on Tianya said, Director Feng is determined to be a 'Protector of Shu'? Or have you already been one?"

Once this post came out, it instantly received support from a large number of netizens!

Even people in the film and television circle were silent, after all, directors and actresses...

…………

"Director Feng's nickname, I'm afraid it will follow him for a lifetime."

Hearing Lin Nan's teasing, Liu Yifei glanced at him, and then ignored him, instead playing online games by herself.

Lin Nan looked at Miss Liu's serious appearance and couldn't help but feel a bit emotional.

An actor sometimes really needs a strong heart; Liu Yifei was really strong and amazing back then!

…………

Although it is still messy outside, it is much better than before. After all, after making such a fuss for so many days, all parties have suffered great damage.

At this time, the new film filing list publicized by the Film Bureau caught the media and the industry off guard!

Lin Nan Pictures and Yinghuang have taken sides!

"Lin Nan Pictures new film, *Kung Fu Jungle* filing publicized."

What shocked the circle was not the movie, after all, it's not the first time for Lin Nan Pictures.

What made the industry couldn't help but wipe their eyes and confirm was the actor list attached to the filing information.

"Movie: *Kung Fu Jungle*."

"Production parties: Lin Nan Pictures, Yinghuang Film."

"Producers: Yue Jun, Mani Fok."

"Director: Lu Yang; Screenwriter: Lin Nan;"

"Starring: Wang Baoqiang/Zhao Wenzhuo, Bai Bing..."

"......"

It's actually starring!

One of the dual male leads of the new movie from Lin Nan Pictures and Yinghuang is Zhao Wenzhuo, Zhao Wenzhuo who is deep in the war of words!

Mainland, Hong Kong circle, quite a few companies were stunned.

Have these two companies directly expressed their stance?

The phone at the front desk of Lin Nan Pictures could be blown up by the media.

Under Lin Nan and Liu Yifei's Weibo, there were also a large number of inquiring comments.

Over at Zhao Wenzhuo's side, he tagged Lin Nan Pictures and Yinghuang for the first time, "I am ready to join the crew at any time..."

The wind direction, changed?

"Still have to rely on our own people in the mainland, Lin Dao didn't make a sound before, but once he took action, it was a male lead in a movie. Looking at the name, it's an action movie!"

"Wang Baoqiang also practiced since he was a child, teaming up with Zhao Wenzhuo, just right!"

……

Lin Nan introduced on Weibo: "This movie is an action movie, I guarantee, it will be absolutely wonderful. I believe the two male leads will not let everyone down."

One Weibo post, tagged Wang Baoqiang and Zhao Wenzhuo, which was considered completely taking sides.

On the other side, Yinghuang's reaction was also fast, also welcoming Zhao Wenzhuo and Wang Baoqiang, without mentioning any "Zhao-Donnie dispute".

……

On the mainland side, quite a few people in the circle began to congratulate Zhao Wenzhuo.

"Lin Nan Pictures' movie will be the best opportunity you've had in these years."

The agent said with a face full of joy.

Zhao Wenzhuo nodded, "I know, I will grasp it..."

……

Over at *Special Identity*, after these days of farce, the crew is a bit lifeless and very oppressive.

But these don't affect Jing Tian at all, she is the investor's person, and currently her status is also second-tier, *Pacific Rim* gave her a great blessing.

"Mm, not Lin Dao's movie."

……

Donnie Yen's face was not good, he had sworn a few days ago that no one would look for Zhao Wenzhuo to film movies in the future, but now he was slapped in the face like this.

"Fortunately, it's not *Ip Man 3*..."

Donnie Yen's agent sighed and said.

Since *Ip Man 2*, the box office of movies starring Donnie Yen has started to flop all the way, this incident will definitely affect his reputation again, afterwards...

Looking at Donnie Yen's solemn face, the agent couldn't help but say:

"Donnie, if there is still *Ip Man 3* over at Yinghuang, we will go and fight for it again, even if we bow our heads and admit our mistakes..."

"Is it possible..."
