Chapter 31: The enemy is standing in my way
The next day, with the satisfaction of teaching someone to fish, Lin Yicheng was full of energy.
But soon, his good mood was ruined.
“Who is responsible for this?”
Holding the jade in his hand, Lin Yicheng's face darkened.
"I am responsible for that."
A stagehand raised his hand, feeling somewhat guilty.
"Come on, tell me, is this jade?! Have you ever seen jade like this?! So many people came just to grab this piece of jade?! Do you think I'm stupid or the audience is stupid?!"
Lin Yicheng cursed loudly and threw the "jade" to the ground, breaking it into several pieces.
He couldn't help but get angry. This "jade" was just a piece of plastic with all kinds of impurities inside, not to mention that it didn't have any crystal clear luster at all.
There are still burrs on the edges and they haven't been cleaned up yet. It's a piece of junk that no one would pick up if it was thrown on the street.
Lin Yicheng didn't expect them to be so foolish. He paid 20,000 yuan for the jade props, but what happened? This wasn't just a shameless act, it was just a shameless act.
"Why are you scolding me? If you think it's not good enough, I can just do it again. Why are you scolding me?!"
The stagehand also got angry, as if he was relying on something.
Lin Yicheng laughed angrily.
"Scold you? I didn't hit you, that's good enough. Get out of here and go back to where you came from!"
"I'm from China Film Group, why the hell are you chasing me away?"
The stagehand also shouted loudly.
At this time, Zhou Chenggong and his apprentices, Wang Liming, Ren Xingyu, and the field manager Lao Gu all stood beside Lin Yicheng, ready to take action at the command.
Since they followed Lin Yicheng to eat, they naturally had to help Lin Yicheng.
"I don't care who you belong to, I'm saying this one last time, get out! Get out!"
When the stage manager saw so many people staring at him covetously, he backed off.
"Let's go. I'll see how you explain to Director Han."
After saying that, he turned around and left, looking like he was about to file a complaint.
……
Lin Yicheng took out his cell phone and called Mr. Han Sanye.
After the call is connected, don't wait for the other party to speak.
"Director Han, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, just tell me directly. If China Film Group is worried, it can just withdraw its investment and I will make up for it myself."
"I welcome your people to help me, but if you want to destroy my place, no!"
"Boss Han, I'm going to make this clear. If this happens again, I will ask China Film Group to withdraw and I will return every cent of your initial investment to you."
"I would rather not shoot this movie than have a bad apple ruin it for me!"
Without waiting for the other end to speak, Lin Yicheng hung up the phone and turned it off.
He turned his head and looked at everyone in the crew, and said loudly:
"Listen to me, everyone. I have the final say in this play! I don't care who you are or what your relationship is. Just do your job honestly!"
"I'll turn a blind eye to all of you if you're greedy and take a little bit of money, but if anyone dares to fool me and treat me like a fool, I'll make sure he doesn't get a chance to continue in this business!"
"No more filming, call it a day! If you don't want to stay, leave now!"
After that, leave directly.
Everyone was dumbfounded. They had never seen a director with such a bad temper.
This is not taking China Film Group seriously at all, and is even a direct slap in the face of China Film Group.
The reactions of the crowd were mixed. Some were worried that the crew would be disbanded. Some were uneasy because of their dirty hands. Some were gloating, thinking that Lin Yicheng would be punished and finally admit his mistakes...
Zhou Chenggong followed Lin Yicheng back to the hotel and asked a few people to go back and rest. He and Wang Liming went into Lin Yicheng's room and saw that Lin Yicheng was on the phone, so they did not disturb him. "... This is what happened. I will see what China Film has to say. If they withdraw, you can just take over if you have enough funds..."
"I'm fine, don't worry... Sorry for bothering you, okay, bye."
Then, Lin Yicheng called Wang Hongwei, his aunt, uncle, Zong Shuai and others.
He did not avoid Zhou Chenggong and Wang Liming who were standing by.
"...Aunt, you have to help me when the time comes..."
"...Thank you, uncle. It's okay. Just in case..."
"...You should prepare in advance. If necessary, call all the media... Prepare for the worst... Throw money at it! If one million is not enough, two million. If two million is not enough, five million. If that is still not enough, I will take ten million!"
I originally wanted to call my godfather, but after thinking about it, I didn’t call him. Let’s see how the situation develops when the time comes.
Turning back, he looked at Zhou Chenggong and Wang Liming and smiled, "Don't worry about me. The worst case scenario is that I will never make a movie again. What are you afraid of?"
Zhou Chenggong and the other man looked at each other and stopped trying to comfort each other. Moreover, the phone calls just now had surprised them all. With those arrangements, China Film would be in big trouble.
"Don't worry, I will definitely follow you!" Zhou Chenggong expressed his loyalty.
"Me too." Wang Liming said after being interrupted.
I turned on my turned-off cell phone and found two missed calls, both from Mr. Han Sanye.
There was also a text message from senior student Yao Di, asking him if it was convenient for her to come over.
Lin Yicheng replied that there was no need to come, there was someone in the room, and told her not to worry, it was all a small matter.
Put down your phone and let Zhou Chenggong comfort the crew members, especially his own people.
When he was alone in the room, Lin Yicheng sneered.
"Do you really take me for a kid?"
Regardless of whether the crew member acted on his own initiative or there was someone else behind it, he blamed China Film Corporation for this incident.
When the investment amounts were first divided, there were objections within China Film Group, but they were suppressed by Mr. Han Sanye.
Later, when we were casting, they started to make all kinds of comments, either wanting to squeeze someone in, or being unhappy with the choice of role.
Lin Yicheng dealt with all of these.
He could understand that if he invested in others, he would definitely make his own voice heard and add his own people to the mix.
But there are some things he can do and he can endure it.
There are some things that you cannot do. If you do them, you will touch his bottom line and you will have to bear his anger!
……
Not to mention that he is a time traveler, and he already has a vague mentality of being superior to others.
It is not usually obvious, but it cannot be denied that this mentality has always existed, but he can control it.
The key is that since he has chosen the path of the entertainment industry in this life, he will continue to go down this path.
His goal is to advance step by step with determination and perseverance, accumulate small things into big ones, and finally replace Huayi and compete with BAT.
Anyone who dares to block his way is his enemy and he will run over him!
It is impossible for China Film Group to ignore its influence and reputation. If they want to suppress us, they can only use the methods they usually use.
As for falling out, I'm not afraid because the public opinion and relationships I can mobilize are no worse than theirs.
Just have a fight. It doesn't matter if you lose. At most, you can just quit the film industry. When you have accumulated enough strength, you can focus on the films invested by China Film Group!
People who have opened their third eye are so confident!
Lin Yicheng has considered and prepared China Film's possible reactions and his own back-up plans. Now it depends on how China Film will make its move.
Lin Yicheng’s first movie has finally started shooting. This is a "Crazy Stone" which is different from Ning Hao’s version. I believe it will not disappoint everyone.
Later on, we will enter the first climax of the book, so stay tuned!
