Chapter 793

The domestic film industry is getting more and more chaotic. One Wu Jing, one Yu Mo, where did they all pop out from?

That Wu Jing, before he was just a bit player, mixed for many years before getting a small role in *Little Li's Flying Dagger*, had a few lines, and transformed into a director.

And, he made it so explosive?

Now *Wolf Warrior*, and another *Wandering Earth*!

If it goes on like this, actors will all change professions!

And that Yu Mo, he was clearly just a scriptwriter, how did he become a director?

And now every time he shoots, it's a hit, and he even took it to the international stage.

How are they, the older generation, supposed to mix in the industry?!

The one most resentful of these two people is the big shot of the entertainment industry, Chen Kaige.

When he entered the film industry, how difficult it was, it was absolutely unforgettable.

Looking back at these two, each one is like they have opened a cheat code, especially that Yu Mo.

He didn't shoot many steps domestically, but he made *Avengers* abroad.

What secrets do they have behind them? Is it that a big shot from a hidden family has entered the scene?

This driving force is too strong!

Chen Kaige was still in the company office, past nine o'clock at night, with no intention of leaving.

His slightly turbid eyeballs stared at the data on the screen, his lips trembling slightly, and the frequency of his finger tapping became more and more chaotic.

Outside the door, there was a knock.

"Come in!"

Assistant Xiao Wang walked up respectfully and bowed deeply.

"Director Chen, the internet water army has been arranged, but the effect is not very significant. Tonight, the water army will increase their efforts, striving for Director Chen to see the effect."

Chen Kaige nodded slowly, rubbed his temples, and closed the screen by the way.

He didn't want to see it for even a second more.

It's really a headache.

For so many years, his contribution to the film industry has been obvious to all. For so many years, his works have become fewer and fewer. First, there is no good script, and second, he is getting older and really feels powerless.

However, now he has to fight hard.

Otherwise, he is destined to be forgotten and drowned in the torrent of history.

"Sure enough, the laws of the world are eternal; it can be said that if you don't advance, you retreat."

Chen Kaige stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window behind him, hands behind his back, looking at the endless stream of traffic, letting out a helpless sigh.

He is Chen Kaige, a top-tier director who has created myths for the film industry for many years.

Looking at the more than one billion people in the country, who doesn't know his name?

Even abroad, he is a famous big director.

However, his works are becoming more and more ancient.

At the Huabiao Awards ceremony, there was even a young director who said he grew up watching his plays.

Sigh!

How did so many years pass in a flash?

Although buying water army is not decent, this is also a kind of progress, just slowing them down a bit so he can catch up quickly.

Thinking of this, he nodded slowly in self-affirmation.

"When they reach my age, they will naturally understand and do the same."

After all, buying water army is a very common thing.

Only true gold is not afraid of fire.

Let him be this trial-by-fire!

A night passed quickly.

The first thing Wu Jing does every day is look at the hot search.

He didn't expect that his *Wandering Earth* would actually rush to the first place on the hot list!

How could it be?

He guaranteed that he didn't do anything.

He just released a promotional video trailer.

It first went from high popularity to the top ten of the hot search, and after a night of fermentation, it actually became number one.

It was even more explosive than the underground emperor of Shuzhong burning down the foreign holy palace.

"Number one? Nannan, did you help behind the scenes?"

Xie Nan was shaken awake by Wu Jing and rubbed her sleepy eyes.

"What did you say? Let me sleep a while longer... wait, hot search? Number one?"

Xie Nan, who was originally in a dream, wanted to sleep a while longer, but her brain was forcibly turned on by the four words "hot search number one."

She sat up with a *swoosh*.

"Eh?! Is it so easy to get on the hot search now? I didn't do anything!"

"Then that's strange. Tell the people in the crew about this good news so everyone can be happy too!"

At the same time, Chen Kaige on the other side was not so happy.

After learning about this, he kept a dark face.

He was dark from the moment he opened his eyes to get up until he stepped into the company.

"What's going on?!"

The assistant scratched his head.

"Director Chen, I don't know either. I thought that by using the water army, we could turn the public opinion around, but who knew, those netizens took it seriously and fought with the water army all night, backfiring and making the popularity unexpectedly higher..."

Chen Kaige's face was so gloomy it seemed like it could drip water.

The little assistant wiped sweat nervously.

A few minutes of silence felt like a sign of an approaching storm.

Until.

Chen Kaige let out a heavy breath.

He waved his hand powerlessly.

"Forget it!"

It's probably because Wu Jing found a big backer with foreign capital.

Except for this reason, he really couldn't think of anything else.

The little assistant stood in place without moving.

Although Director Chen didn't get angry, he was still terrified.

After all, he had been by Director Chen's side for so many years, and this was the first time he had seen Director Chen in this state today.

He licked his lips and whispered: "Director Chen, actually, there is a hidden story about *The Wandering Earth*..."

"What hidden story?"

Chen Kaige's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at the assistant curiously.

"I, I asked someone, and before *The Wandering Earth* was filmed, the funds were insufficient, and later Director Wu went to find someone."

"Who?! Who did he go to find?!"

Chen Kaige was almost anxious to death.

He pressed his hands on the table, stood up abruptly from his seat, and even leaned out half his body, afraid of missing every word the assistant said. ===== CHAPTER 794 =====
