Chapter 1455 premiere time(1/2)
Downstairs of the business building where Oriental DreamWorks is located.
As soon as Liu Xinsheng got off the stairs and exited the elevator, he was surrounded by many media reporters.
"Mr. Liu, may I ask if Yang Ming is filming a movie or TV series about Butterfly Lovers?"
"Is the film and television project that Yang Ming is currently filming directed at "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" directed by Qi Dazhong?"
"Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu, is Oriental DreamWorks targeting Victory Pictures with this move?"
........
Interview microphones and recorders were crowded in front of Liu Xinsheng like a dense forest.
When Liu Xinsheng saw this situation, there was no road outside.
He had no choice but to stop and said with a smile: "Everyone, please stop crowding and pay attention to safety. I can't answer so many of your questions at once, but I want to make it clear that no matter what works Director Yang Ming creates, he will never
It depends on whose purpose it is created; and given the identity and status of director Yang Ming, most of his competitors are basically international."
"Thank you, please give way!"
At this time, company staff and building security also came after hearing the news and began to maintain order.
After a while, Liu Xinsheng was able to escape.
After he got in the car, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It will be fine when our own Oriental Building is officially opened."
As Oriental DreamWorks expands faster and faster, the number of personnel in various departments has increased several times. Even though Liu Xinsheng has rented several floors now, it is still not enough.
Moreover, the company's office environment is also overcrowded.
The Oriental Building has now been completed and is undergoing final decoration. It is estimated that in the first half of the year, everyone will be able to move into the new office space.
There would be no situation where he was blocked and unable to leave today.
The news that Yang Ming is filming a movie about Butterfly Lovers has caused an uproar in the entertainment industry.
No one expected that Yang Ming's approach would be so brutal and direct.
Make no secret of it.
It was obviously aimed at the two giants, Victory Pictures and Zhonghuang Entertainment.
Otherwise, in the industry, under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible for two companies to produce films and TV shows with the same theme at the same time.
If Oriental DreamWorks and Victory Pictures previously started shooting racing-themed movies at the same time, after all, racing is only a broad theme, and there is still the possibility of car crashes.
But with the Butterfly Lovers as the theme, this obviously was not an intentional crash.
Do it knowingly.
Yang Ming went to "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" directed by Qi Dazhong.
Oriental DreamWorks, Victory Pictures and Zhonghuang Entertainment, the two giants, originally had many conflicts and problems.
Now Yang Ming's actions, coupled with a series of previous events, have completely made this contradiction public.
All of a sudden, both colleagues in the entertainment industry and reporters in the media industry had a lot of interest in the film and television works that Yang Ming was filming.
The reason why it was previously reported that Yang Ming was filming a movie about Butterfly Lovers was because a reporter accidentally discovered it. However, he only saw Yang Ming entering and exiting a crew from a distance, and then found out something vague about what the crew was filming.
The reporter did not ask for details.
But when the news came out, countless media reporters from all over the country rushed to where Yang Ming's crew was.
Mount Emei, Sichuan.
However, because the crew is closed for filming, all these media reporters are temporarily unable to interview Yang Ming himself.
However, through insinuations, these reporters quickly found out that what Yang Ming was filming was indeed a film and television work about the Butterfly Lovers.
Not a TV series, but a movie.
After the news was confirmed, it quickly spread throughout the entertainment industry.
After hearing the news, countless people were stunned for a moment, and then secretly applauded Yang Ming's actions.
Some people think Yang Ming's approach is too insidious.
There are also people who are fighting for Yang Ming.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that, to be precise, Yang Ming was not the first to initiate the dispute.
Every time it is basically the other party who provokes first.
Yang Mingcai fought back.
This was true when filming "The Fast and the Furious" before, and it is also true now when filming "The Legend of White Snake".
Because Yang Ming's new drama decided to make a film and television drama with the Legend of White Snake as the theme, Oriental DreamWorks naturally hyped up news materials about the four ancient love legends.
At this time, Victory Pictures suddenly released the news that it would be filming "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai", which was obviously taking advantage of Oriental DreamWorks.
Maybe this was nothing, and Yang Ming didn't take it to heart.
But if this TV series announces that its premiere schedule will be after New Year's Day after "The Legend of White Snake", and then immediately announces that "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" will also premiere on New Year's Day, then it is obviously aimed at Yang Ming.
In addition, he was punished by the Film Association for box office fraud in "Racing", which made it even more public-known.
News spread that this was a trick Yang Ming deliberately set for Victory Pictures.
Among the people who Timely Films spent a lot of money to poach from Maoyan Films, someone revealed to Yang Ming the news about the box office fraud of "Crazy Racing".
Otherwise, how could the Film Association know so clearly about the inside story of "Racing" using the real-time movie platform to conduct box office fraud?
Now it is not surprising that Victory Pictures is targeting Yang Ming like this.
At this moment, it is revealed that Yang Ming is also filming a movie about Butterfly Lovers, which is also reasonable.
The news of the quarrel between the two major companies in the entertainment industry suddenly became the focus of discussion among people in the entertainment industry.
The current Oriental DreamWorks is not a small company that was just established five years ago. It is worthless in the entertainment industry.
After several years of development and acquisitions, this company has grown into a company that is not inferior to the established giants after five years of development.
In particular, the explosion of Yang Ming's personal wealth and his numerous media industries have made Oriental DreamWorks treated as a film and television giant in the minds of many colleagues in the film and television industry.
And in the past few years, Yang Ming has continued to create various miracles and myths.
It also gives Oriental DreamWorks a magical halo in the eyes of celebrities and artists in the industry.
Compared with Oriental DreamWorks, Victory Pictures has nothing to be proud of except its famous name.
But this time, in addition to Victory Pictures, there is also the established giant Zhonghuang Entertainment.
It can be said to be a strong alliance.
Coupled with the fact that National Television is the largest local film and television broadcasting platform, most people in the entertainment industry are not optimistic about the on-screen showdown between the two TV series "The Legend of White Snake" and "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai"
.
It is obvious that Phoenix TV is not on the same level as national TV.
Even if Phoenix TV has acquired Fuzhou TV, it won't work.
Zhonghuang Entertainment.
"Mr. Bai, what do you think is a good solution to this situation?"
In Bai Chongshi's office, after Zhao Jianfeng came over, he asked straight to the point.
Yang Ming wanted to make a movie with the same theme of Butterfly Lovers, which put a lot of pressure on him, but after all, he made his debut halfway. Although he has a certain understanding of the film and television industry, he is definitely not as knowledgeable as Bai Chongshi, an old fox.
clear.
Seeing Zhao Jianfeng's slightly anxious look, Bai Chongshi told him not to worry, then made him a cup of tea and sat down on the sofa.
"Mr. Zhao, don't think too much. One is a TV series and the other is a movie. They are not competing for food on the same plate. It is enough for us to just be ourselves." Bai Chongshi said calmly.
To be honest, when he first heard the news, he felt bad.
However, after careful analysis, he didn't feel that Yang Ming's move would pose much of a threat to them.
After all, there is no direct interest between the TV series and the movie.
No matter how good Yang Ming's Butterfly Lovers movie is, it will not pose a direct threat to "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai".
As for the comparison between the two, does Bai Chongshi care about these?
Obviously not.
When Zhao Jianfeng heard Bai Chongshi's words and saw the calm look on his face, his face changed slightly, knowing that he was a little too nervous.
But the impression Yang Ming had made on him before was really profound.
He thought carefully about what Bai Chongshi said, and couldn't help but nodded, admitting that what the other party said was reasonable.
As long as they don't make mistakes and do their best, that's enough.
After all, the advantages of "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" are really great.
With a large investment, a well-known director, an all-star cast, and a well-known legendary story background, as long as this TV series is not too poorly shot and is broadcast on national television, it will definitely beat the other party's "The Legend of White Snake"
One head.
