~14 min read 2,607 words

To be precise, it should be at 12:30 noon, the time of day when the yang energy is most prosperous;

A sarcastic manifesto was born and quickly swept the entire film and television culture industry and the internet!

"Respected Chairman Wang: Little woman Jinlian, I have long heard of the Chairman's great achievements. Under your macro guidance, the grand pattern, grand vision, and grand mind of Wanda's global industrial chain are seen by the eyes;

Not only have you achieved remarkable results in the field of commercial real estate, but in the film and television production and distribution industry alone, in addition to forming a monopoly in the country, buying the entire Hollywood is also just around the corner.

In this high-spirited and destructive momentum, there is a small company called Huayi, in order to save the fate of destruction, dug a small corner from your group—no, no, no, forgive the little woman for using the wrong words, it can't even be counted as a small corner, it's just a small piece of wall skin; but this small company miscalculated, these small wall skins are a piece of wall skin at your place, and after leaving you, they are just a handful of dirt.

The shedding of these small wall skins did no harm to your group, but their act of betrayal caused your group to be angry with both humans and gods, and they must be eliminated quickly.

According to rumors, the punishment is manifested as: any film produced by this small company will be banned in your group's theater chains—no, no, no, Chairman Wang, the little woman used the wrong words again, it is to arrange a few sporadic screenings, let it linger, and also leave some face for the top and bottom.

The little woman also understands, can Chairman Wang care about the shedding of small wall skins? No, you are just being angry! It made the little woman discover that under your grand pattern, you still have a childlike heart that does not talk about business in business—commonly known as 'childishness'.

If you just want to be angry, the little woman uses a grand pattern to speculate, you have a more satisfying way: you might as well acquire this small company.

Acquisition is not for profit, just to eradicate these small wall skins, and then return this small company to those two unlucky brothers for free, telling them with facts: do you really think I care about your company? Just to vent my anger also looks generous.

Then, wherever the small wall skins escape, your group will shovel wherever, even if you acquire all the film companies in the country, with your group's financial resources and spirit, it will not take much effort.

But then again, Chairman Wang, your practice of eradicating small wall skins is absolutely correct, but you are using too much force right now, and the shovel blade that flew out also hurt the innocent Jinlian.

Jinlian has been wronged for a thousand years, experienced ups and downs, and finally walked onto the screen one day. Walking onto the screen is walking into your group's theater chains. Just because I have a slight connection with that small company, I also confusedly lay under your group's guillotine.

Chairman Wang, the slave family has never met those small wall skins, just because that small company is added in the middle, I was devastated. This is really the city gate catching fire, hurting the fish in the pond.

The little woman speculates that Chairman Wang draws blueprints and thinks about macro all day long, you may not care about hurting a small fish like the little woman; however, starting from your grand pattern and grand vision, the little woman really has a word to say:

5% screening also reflects your group's 5% mind; this kind of small mind also reflects a small pattern; and this kind of small pattern cannot achieve your grand blueprint! The little woman's honor and disgrace are nothing, but if this affects your grand cause of unifying the world, the little woman is guilty.

Chairman Wang, calm down, the little woman dares to say one more word: if you sweep across the army like rolling a mat, treating the slave family as small wall skins, then please eliminate the evil, give me zero screenings, and let Pan's Jinlian fend for herself!

If you can get your wish, Jinlian also tells the fathers and elders of the country, before your group has time to acquire other theater chains in the country, hurry to other storefronts, maybe you can see Jinlian for the last time.

Here, I wish Chairman Wang a happy mood and an early achievement of the monopoly cause......"

How boiling the internet is, how shocked the industry is, these are already self-evident. On this afternoon, the outside world is like a scene of a "big earthquake".

Countless netizens are excitedly eating melons, excitedly watching the excitement, gloatingly discussing and arguing, while the film and television industry as a whole is silent and pretending to be dead.

Most people in the industry are paying attention and panicking. Two giants are openly fighting. Will everyone face the situation of "only choosing one of two" in the future?

After all, Director Feng even scolded words like "monopoly", and even confronted Big Lao Wang, saying he is "childish" and "narrow-minded"! In this situation, can the richest man tolerate it?

"Awesome! I give Director Feng a like, it's just one word: don't be cowardly, do it!"

Han Jiamei slapped her thigh wearing jeans, looking like she couldn't wait to add fuel to the fire immediately.

She didn't hide her thoughts at all, she just wanted Director Feng and Huayi to die faster, preferably miserably! After all, her old man was once severely backstabbed by Huayi.

"Look at your appearance of fearing that the world will not be chaotic, why are you so like me?" Lin Nan peeled an orange and teased with a smile.

"Ah woo." Taking advantage of Lin Dao's lack of preparation, Liu Yifei suddenly leaned over and snatched the food away, leaving him only a handful of fruit peels, and then said playfully: "It's quite good, this part of the screening will be given to us in 10 days."

"Not only! As the theater chain with the number one market share, Wanda doing this will cause the box office ceiling of *I Am Not Madame Bovary*, that is, the total cake, to be significantly cut;

Which in turn will cause other theater chains to follow suit, cut screenings in advance, and give up on this film. After all, there are only a few days left before the opening of the New Year's slot, and there is no need to pay too much attention to such a movie."

"And as the first shot of the New Year's slot, *Operation Mekong* will naturally eat up all the screening resources that originally belonged to *I Am Not Madame Bovary*! Right, Senior Brother Lin?" Han Jiamei took over Lin Nan's words and raised her eyebrows at him.

Fine, Lin Dao and Producer Liu looked at each other and smiled, neither of them denied Han Jiamei's words. Because isn't the benefit falling on their own movie?

At 2 pm, which is an hour and a half after the small steel cannon's manifesto was sent out, the first heavy punch of retaliation from Wanda appeared—sent by the famous internet sprayer, classmate Xiao Wang!

"Director Feng, please don't be so sarcastic, it's really disgusting to hear.

Originally, the grudge between two private enterprises should be a matter between the two companies. How come because you are a big director, you can incite internet masses and public opinion to spray us?

Let's talk about things as they are. Only you are allowed to dig up a group of our executives who have non-compete agreements, and we are not allowed to have any displeasure?

Only you are allowed to squeeze out *Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them* with screenings, and we are not allowed to lower screenings because we don't look favorably on your movie?

Reasonably speaking, no one has trouble with money. If your movie has a good box office, we will definitely increase screenings according to the programmatic process. As a director, isn't it better to speak with works you can take out?"

With the issuance of this strong response, the description of Huayi digging people first in the manifesto of the newly promoted "international director" was pointed out nakedly.

Public opinion on the internet climbed to another peak in an instant, and countless netizens also stood in line with Wanda.

"I stand with Principal Wang, screening is the freedom of theater chains..."

"I don't stand with anyone, I just think *Madame Bovary* is a rotten movie, and the lens is round! The small steel cannon is pretending to be profound, pretending to be mysterious, it's useless and looks awkward!"

"Good guy, I said why *Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them* changed from the 18th to the 25th, it turns out they used means?"

"It is recommended that the competent department set up a 'Feng Dao Film Protection Month' on the basis of the Domestic Film Protection Month!"

"Director Feng, please have some face. *Madame Bovary* is a movie controlled by Huayi, and you are a shareholder of Huayi. It makes it seem like you are a victim, and nothing has anything to do with you. Really TM pure, like Pan Jinlian!"

"You do the first day, others do the fifteenth, back and forth, what qualifications do you have to accuse others? Too disgusting!"

On the 18th, the "confrontation" between the two giants in the industry finally ended with the small steel cannon's second shameless and slightly soft-spoken Weibo, and Wanda made no further response.

"Chairman Xiao Wang, calm down, I have been paying attention to you, I like your frankness, upright! As for the non-compete agreement you mentioned, I don't know at all.

But your behavior of not looking favorably on *I Am Not Madame Bovary* because of this matter and giving low screenings is completely disrespectful to market laws, this is not a professional behavior!"

After a night, the excitement continued, but Lin Nan no longer had the leisure and energy to pay attention, because he had to start preparing for the audition and casting work of *Dying to Survive* and *The Wandering Earth*.

And Han Jiamei also drove to Lin Nan Film Industry early in the morning to meet up with Producer Liu and Lin Dao; in the morning, the three of them had to flip through the actors' audition resumes together.

Outside the Capital Airport, Jackie Chan and Ren Zhonglun sat in the same car, they came for the promotional press conference of *Railroad Tigers* in the afternoon.

"I previously promised Huayi that they could participate in my movies in the future. Now I'm afraid I have to break my promise. After all, I don't want to be hurt by Wanda."

Glancing at the paparazzi who were still following one after another outside the window, Jackie Chan smiled helplessly and teased himself.

"This doesn't count as breaking a promise, after all, they are the ones who are courting death, they can't expect to implicate others, right? By the way, Wanda shouldn't let go of *The Wasted Times* in the New Year's slot either!"

Ren Zhonglun said without any avoidance. He had forgotten when it started, Huayi completely became a film and television company that everyone hated. In the eyes of the official, it is also somewhat disliked.

"Speaking of which, Lin Dao has two blockbusters in preparation. I've known him for so many years, and he even mentioned to me before that there would be opportunities for cooperation in the future. But until today, I haven't waited for cooperation.

If it weren't for the fact that the schedule for the next two years is full, I would really want to ask him for a role today!" Jackie Chan intentionally changed the subject and joked, but what he said was also the truth.

"Then I'm afraid you have to wait until he finishes filming these two movies, and wait for another blockbuster. Hmm, preferably a Hollywood blockbuster!"

Ren Zhonglun added lightly. To be honest, he was also looking forward to the cooperation between Lin Nan and Jackie Chan.

"It's not intentional to prevaricate Brother Hua, there really isn't a role suitable for you." In the office, Lin Nan was on the phone, chatting and joking with Andy Lau on the other end.

Liu Yifei and Han Jiamei's attention also left the thick paper resumes in front of them, looking at him playfully.

"There are only a few people in the circle who have a good relationship with him who can call to ask for roles. And in Hong Kong, there are only one or two." Liu Yifei whispered to Han Jiamei.

"After I finished sending my daughter to school this morning, I saw a tabloid reporting that your company sent an invitation to Brother Tat. So I came here with a thick face to ask, hehe..."

"I naturally welcome Brother Hua, but I know the scripts of the two movies very well, and there really isn't a suitable one. If there were, could I wait for you to call? I would definitely call you first!"

Lin Nan was chatting with Andy Lau here, while Han Jiamei started complaining to Liu Yifei:

"When did your Lin Dao start to lie with his mouth open? When he just answered the phone, he was obviously also surprised, right? He didn't expect Heavenly King Lau..."

This question really stumped Liu Yifei, she tilted her head and thought about it, and puffed out her cheeks: "How would I know? Isn't this his polite respect? Besides, Lin Nan hasn't lied to me."

"Tsk, still hasn't lied to you? It's highly likely you've been lied to and don't know it yourself, right? Men, how could... Lin, Senior Brother Lin, I didn't say anything, look at the resume, look at the resume... Ah, Director Feng ran to Shanghai to fire again, he really is endless? Does he really think Wanda is made of mud..."

After seeing Lin Nan's warning look, Han Jiamei immediately changed the subject in a panic, and then her eyes scanned the instant hot search that popped up on her phone—Feng Dao led the team to Shanghai to continue promoting *I Am Not Madame Bovary*, and he fired at Wanda again in front of the many media at the scene!

At the same time, Hollywood.

The lights and wine of the awards season night had already begun for more than half a month; tonight's *La La Land* public relations banquet was still the same, very lively.

"Tang Mu, don't chase me and ask anymore. You should understand that if such a thing is true, it must be the group's commercial secret, and it is confidential internally, so how could I know?"

"My god! You didn't say that when you were drunk at the last banquet. Do you deserve the TCM doctor I introduced to you? Brother, you should repay me! Tell me, is *Mulan* about to start?"

Tang Mu grabbed the middle-aged fat man of the same size as him, pretending to be sad, and asked again.

"Tang Mu, look, that's Ivanka, she also came to tonight's banquet!" The Disney executive who was grabbed suddenly pointed to the entrance of the venue and said excitedly.

Tang Mu, upon hearing this, subconsciously turned around to look, and then cursed, "Fuck, you actually lied to me, don't run..."
