On Weibo.
There was a huge uproar over Jiang Qianfan's remarks.
The first to be affected are Lu Hao's fans and Qilin Film and Television's supporters.
…
"This is the first time I've seen someone so shameless. He can even wash his hands of something like drug involvement. How can you wash your hands of it? Jiang Xiao's surname is Jiang, and yours is also Jiang. What is your relationship?"
…
"I won't comment on this movie for now, waiting for its release. I just want to say, Mr. Jiang, as a Chinese American, do you have any shame in filming a Chinese hero?"
…
"Insider information: Several co-investors of 'Wolf Warrior 1' were poached by Qilin Films through various means and became relevant investors of 'Chinese Heroes'. That's what business is all about. Honestly, Mr. Jiang, your methods are truly despicable."
…
The other side.
Lu Hao’s Weibo post also attracted a lot of criticism.
"Wolf Warrior? A special forces movie? A patriotic movie? Ugh! I admit that Lu Hao was talented in the beginning. His first few movies were all about different themes, and both the creative plot and the storyline were eye-opening. But what are these two recent movies? 'Partners of the University of Finance and Economics,' a school anniversary movie. 'Wolf Warrior,' a patriotic movie. Are you going to make 'I Love the Galaxy' next?"
…
"I didn't want to say anything, but I just remembered the report a while ago. The Japanese media gave Twenty-Two a lot of coverage. Do you know why it became so popular? Because of vote-rigging, and they even organized wealthy fans to book out the entire theater. Why don't you buy out Tokyo? It's bringing shame to the world!"
…
"Lu Hao has become so famous at a young age that he's become arrogant. Just look at him. He has a different heroine in every movie. I suspect he makes movies just to pick up girls. In short, there's no good person in the entertainment industry!"
…
This online war of words lasted for several days, and the heat not only did not decrease, but continued to rise.
As a result, the scale of the verbal battle and the number of people affected are expanding.
Many celebrities who had behaved improperly and had poor personal ethics in the past were dragged out and criticized.
A first-line male star who was on the rise was torn apart by his original wife because of his infidelity and his reputation was instantly ruined.
There are always new melons on Weibo.
Many people in the circle are in panic.
Many artists have taken the initiative to reduce their exposure, for fear of being involved in some big news and being exposed to the elements.
In the capital market, the stocks of more than half of the listed companies in the film and television industry have declined to varying degrees.
In short, in eight words, the situation is very tense and every tree and grass looks like an enemy!
To be fair...
Lu Hao did not expect such a result.
How did things come to this point?
Now it is no longer a conflict between DreamWorks and Kylin Pictures, but countless threads tangled together, and it has nothing to do with DreamWorks and Kylin Pictures anymore.
This scene reminds people of the great shock caused by the "tax evasion incident of a first-line female star."
It was in this environment that Lu Hao received a call.
It’s Fang Jing calling.
The content of the call was simple.
Jiang Qianfan, please treat yourself to a meal.
He also invited the bosses of several rebellious companies to join him, saying that they wanted to discuss a countermeasure to calm the online conflicts.
Otherwise, if the quarrel continues, it will not be good for anyone.
Fang Jing also persuaded him, saying that it was not a bad thing to go, and he would be there to accompany him.
After thinking about it, Lu Hao agreed.
The world of Jianghu is far more complicated than one can imagine.
Lu Hao originally thought that after making so many movies and having a net worth of tens of billions, he could basically do whatever he wanted, right?
But, sorry, not yet.
Every class and every level has its own circle and naturally its own struggles.
Your opponent is always at the same level as you.
…
Jiang Qianfan's dinner was arranged to be a luncheon.
The participants are basically bigwigs in the entertainment industry and bosses of various companies.
We had a local pig feast.
A very down-to-earth dinner treat.
It is said that this is a pig-raising side business run by the boss of a certain company. Ordinary people cannot eat it. A pound of meat is sold for three digits in the market, which is several times the premium.
However, at this kind of dinner, it doesn’t really matter what you eat.
After arriving at the scene, Lu Hao met Jiang Qianfan for the second time.
To be honest, when they first met, Lu Hao didn't care much. He just thought that this man was gentle and refined, looked to be about forty years old, with a fair face and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, very elegant.
The second time I saw it, it was still the same.
Jiang Qianfan's temperament is not overbearing, nor does he sound condescending. He doesn't seem like a domineering president, but rather has the feeling of a university professor.
The atmosphere at the table was quite harmonious. After all, everyone was a respectable person and they were chatting happily.
After eating a few dishes, Jiang Qianfan took the initiative to raise his glass.
"Mr. Lu, I believe that what has happened recently is something no one wants to see. I also admit that what I did before was not well-considered. Let me drink first as an apology to Mr. Lu on behalf of myself and these brothers."
After saying that, Jiang Qianfan drank the 48-proof sauce-flavored liquor in a two-liang glass.
He put down the cup as if nothing had happened and poured a second cup.
"I'll drink this second cup alone as a token of my gratitude. Actually, it's all because of you that I'm able to take the helm of Kylin Pictures. So there's no personal grudge between us. On the contrary, you're my benefactor."
Gulp.
Another two taels.
Seeing this scene, everyone at the table was slightly moved.
