Chapter 71 My King, what are you waiting for?

Fan Xiaopang's action actually impressed Lin Yicheng.

Sister, have you learned Sichuan Opera face-changing?
Lin Yicheng sat on the edge of the bed, watching Fat Fan helping him clean up, without saying a word.

Just now, he actually lost his composure a little.

He was reflecting on himself, wondering if he had become a little inflated over time.

As a reborn person, whether subjectively or objectively, he always looks down on the natives of this world.

That inexplicable sense of superiority that cannot be described in words has existed in him from beginning to end.

It is just like the saying goes, the whole world is turbid but I am the only one who is clear.

This kind of thing cannot be eliminated. It's just that Lin Yicheng concealed it very well before.

Why was he so angry today? Just because of a word from Fatty Fan?

The recent smooth progress is a big reason.

Prepare to let "Red River" compete with "Curse of the Golden Flower" and defeat Zhang Yimou head-on.

While chatting and laughing, they made various plans, as if to say, "So what if you are the national teacher? I can still pull you down from the box office throne and take my place."

It feels like he is in control of everything, and everyone in the world is in his hands.

My practice is still not enough. My current self has already surpassed that of my previous life by so much.

The mentality from his previous life can no longer keep up with his current status.

Hence, there is an imbalance between the two.

……

Fan Xiaopang thought that she had never understood Lin Yicheng before, and Lin Yicheng also didn't understand her.
Lin Yicheng, who knew what happened to her in her later life, couldn't understand it. It was understandable that she pursued various awards, but you had reached the level of one of the top female stars in the country, so why were you still so eager to lick Hollywood's coat?
He just played a supporting role in the film, showed his face for a while, and had only one line of dialogue, "It's too late." With just this, can it enhance his status or increase his worth?

He also said casually that his biggest wish in life is to be able to participate in a Hollywood movie and become an important role.

What’s the matter? The pond in China is too small to accommodate a dragon like you?
Putting all these aside, ever since I learned that Fan Xiaopang would abandon Mu Xiaoguang and only bring Yang Tianzhen to join the company.

Although Lin Yicheng was happy about her decisiveness, he felt a little wary in his heart.

You can abandon Mu Xiaoguang today, but can you betray me tomorrow?
Therefore, deep down in Lin Yicheng's heart, he was wary and suspicious of Fan Xiaopang.

This wariness and suspicion might have been the trigger for his misbehavior today.

……

"What are you thinking about? What else do you need to pack?" Seeing that Lin Yicheng had been silent, Fat Fan sat down next to him.

"Nothing, not much, just two days."

"Okay, don't be angry." Fat Fan shook his arm, his tone full of coquettishness.

"There's nothing to be angry about. Everyone has their own pursuits. I can't and shouldn't impose my ideas on you. I was wrong just now, and I apologize."

Lin Yicheng meant what he said. Not to mention that Fan Xiaopang is not a member of Xinghe Film and Television Company yet, even if she is, she is a living person with flesh and blood and her own ideas.

Rather than being a tool without emotions or thoughts, Lin Yicheng is not qualified to manipulate her thoughts.

"It doesn't matter. I'm still happy to hear you talk about your ambitions." Fat Fan didn't want to dwell on what happened just now. There was no need.

"You just said that our play was made for Zhang Yimou, is that true?" Fatty Fan changed the subject. "Man Jiang Hong will definitely not be released in time for the summer season, so the only time left is the Lunar New Year season. When it comes to the Lunar New Year season, it will naturally collide with him."

"Are you sure? I don't mean anything else, it's just that he is Zhang Yimou." asked Fat Fan.

In recent years, various associations and media have been criticizing Zhang Yimou as if domestic films would be doomed if Zhang Yimou were still alive.

But who in the industry dares to look down on Lao Mouzi? It is no exaggeration to say that the past two years have been Lao Mouzi's peak, and he is the leader!

When other people's movies meet Zhang Yimou's movies, they all try to avoid them. Only Lin Yicheng wants to face off head-on. How can this not make Fan Xiaopang worried?
After all, she had high expectations for "Man Jiang Hong", wanting it to become her masterpiece and set a new box office record.

"Our film is invested by China Film Group Corporation," said Lin Yicheng.

"I know." Fat Fan was a little puzzled.

Lin Yicheng didn't want to say much, but when he saw Fan Xiaopang's eager eyes, he said a few more words. After all, it didn't involve any secrets.

"Last year, Zhang Yimou's A Single Man's Journey was originally planned to be released one day after The Promise, but it was stopped by China Film. In the end, A Single Man's Journey had to be moved forward a week."

Hearing this, Fat Fan seemed to be thinking about something, but he didn't say anything. He just waited for Lin Yicheng's next words.

"Look, from Hero to House of Flying Daggers, the production and promotion were all done by Zhang Baimao's New Picture and Jiang Zhiqiang's Edko Films. Is there something wrong here?"

"There is no Chinese film." Fat Fan said.

“Yes, let alone eating meat, there’s not even a sip of soup. We can only watch and smell the meat.” Lin Yicheng smiled with a hint of sarcasm.

"The fame goes to Zhang Yimou, while the money goes to New Picture and Embed. If you were China Film, you would be the leader of this industry. What would you think?" Lin Yicheng asked back.

"Is there any need to think about it? Of course we should deal with them! And then force them to give up some of their interests as a tribute to the leader!" Fat Fan answered without hesitation.

"In the past, China Film Group couldn't do anything to them. After all, among domestic directors, if the great director Kai Ge didn't come out, who could challenge Lao Mouzi?" Lin Yicheng said again:

"Then last year, The Promise came out, and China Film Group immediately gave Lao Mouzi and his team a heads-up, but that wasn't enough. After all, A Single Man's Journey is just an art film, with a small investment. Even if it loses money, Lao Mouzi and his team won't feel bad."

"But this time, Curse of the Golden Flower has an investment of 3.6 million yuan. Overseas, China Film Group can't reach it. But in China, if Red River can cause them trouble and even defeat them, do you think Zhang Yimou and White Hat will feel the pain? Will they dare not play with China Film Group in the future?"

"You know, China Film owns two cinema chains, and the other cinema chains have to follow their scheduling instructions."

……

The more Fat Fan listened, the more surprised he was. There are some things that cannot be understood unless you reach a certain level.

This time, Lin Yicheng opened the door to a new world for her and broadened her horizons.

Compared with this level of commercial competition, the open and secret struggles and various small tricks among these actresses, what do they matter?

In the eyes of the real bosses, these are just childish tricks, just a way to entertain themselves in their spare time, and they are not worth their attention at all.

"Then, do you have confidence?" Fat Fan asked softly.

"If I lose, it's not shameful to lose to Lao Mouzi. But if I win..."

"If you win, you will be the box office king!" Before Lin Yicheng finished speaking, Fat Fan continued.

Suddenly, Fan Xiaopang's eyes were as charming as silk, so thick that they couldn't be melted.

"My king, the beauty is right before your eyes, what are you waiting for?"
