The Fantasy Entertainment Empire

The turmoil at the celebration banquet of "Hell Apartment 2" seemed to have stopped after Ji Jiaxin was framed out that day, but the subsequent impact has just been revealed.

The celebration banquet was held in a semi-enclosed manner, and the media were not invited. However, in this day and age, at a reception with nearly a hundred people, how could it be possible that no news of what happened in public could be kept secret?

Not to mention, among the people present, in addition to Dimension Group's own people, there are also many practitioners in the film industry.

These people, Dimension Entertainment always find it difficult to keep their mouths shut.

In fact, on that night, even before the reception was over, there were some news and rumors circulating in the circle. And the next day, the media got wind of it.

This time, a large number of media became excited.

For them, this kind of conflict is natural news material. Dimension Entertainment is now a relatively well-known company in China. As long as the content related to them has a little weight, it will have relatively strong attention. Not to mention the direct conflict between Fan Zhe, the boss of Dimension Entertainment, and Ji Jiaxin, the director of "Hell Apartment 2", which is currently on the air.

After this incident, the media from all sides sent interview applications to Dimension Entertainment and Ji Jiaxin.

Of course, Fan Zhe is not interested in accepting such an interview, but this matter cannot be answered at all. The public relations department of Dimension Entertainment still gave an official response. The tone is not strong, and it probably means that the two sides Unfortunately, there have been some contradictions in the film cooperation.

In terms of Dimensional Entertainment, we definitely hope to minimize the turmoil caused by this matter.

But relatively speaking, Ji Jiaxin is much more unscrupulous.

After waking up the next day, recalling what he did yesterday, Ji Jiaxin really wanted to slap himself. Of course, he has always had high self-esteem, and after the success of "Hell Apartment 2", Dimension Entertainment made a lot of money, but as a director, he can only get a salary of 400,000 yuan, and the subsequent income has nothing to do with him. He felt very uncomfortable.

Although the contract was signed by himself, he was very happy to receive such a film contract at that time. But when it came time for him to see the vain money, which was put into the account of Dimension Entertainment, but he didn't even have a dime, and he could only get a 60% salary increase for the third film, 20% Wan's bonus can only be obtained after he accepts the third part...

To be honest, all these made him feel very unbalanced.

But no matter how unbalanced it was, if he was sober, he wouldn't be able to make trouble like this during the celebration banquet.

But the matter has come to this point, no matter how regretful it is, it is useless. Turn around and apologize? impossible.

There was only one way left before him—to the end!

Ever since, he happily accepted interviews from many media, and during the interviews, he uttered nonsense.

The main argument is that Fan Zhe's attitude is arrogant, and he is a victim; what to say, after the success of the film, Dimension Entertainment, as the producer, will kill the main creative team...

After receiving such important revelations, all the media were very happy, and with an attitude of wishing to make things bigger, released all these words of Ji Jiaxin, and even to attract attention, There are a lot of added content in it.

Unsurprisingly, this matter has aroused a lot of discussion.

In this initial discussion, the public opinion was slightly inclined to sympathize with Ji Jiaxin.

This is normal, although Ji Jiaxin is a director, he can be regarded as a job with a relatively high social status. But if compared with a large group like Dimension Entertainment, it must be relatively weak.

Sympathy for the weak is itself a feature of mass psychology.

After the discussion on the Internet appeared, the public relations department of Dimension Entertainment also made a response in the first time.

The general content is to expose the situation at that time, and accuse Ji Jiaxin of not abiding by the contract, not having the spirit of the contract, breaking the contract alone, and asking for excessive remuneration.

On the current Internet, it can be described as a chicken feather.

However, these quarrels have not had a particularly large impact on the box office of "Hell Apartment 2" itself.

The movie itself is already in the late stage of broadcasting. Although it will probably be online for a month, the entire film schedule has become very low. At the same time, the potential audience is almost exhausted. Even under normal circumstances, the box office is afraid that it will reach 500 million at the end, and there is no room for concern that it will not increase.

But anyway, this is a particularly disgusting thing.

On the night of the celebration banquet, after the conflict broke out, Fan Zhe had already decided in his heart that Ji Jiaxin would definitely not be the director of the third part of "Hell Apartment".

As for the new director candidate, just as Fan Zhe had thought in his mind before, there is no such thing as difficult to find.

After confirming that Ji Jiaxin would not continue to be the director, Fan Zhe contacted Wang Zhicheng immediately. He also readily agreed to be the director of "Hell Apartment 3".

Of course, the shooting of this movie will not start until next year at the earliest.

This Wang Zhicheng is also a veteran director, and he also had the experience of cooperating with Dimension Entertainment and Fan Zhe back then. At the beginning, when the first part of "Hell Apartment" was filmed, Fan Zhe served as the chief director, but it was his first time directing a film and he lacked experience, so he hired two more experienced assistant directors to come As his deputy, one of them is Wang Zhicheng.

Comrade Wang, I see that he will be fifty years old this year. In the past experience, he also slowly climbed up. He has been mainly helping others, as an assistant director, and has shot a lot of films. Later, it’s not that I didn’t have the experience of directing a film alone, but those few times were not considered successful, so I didn’t encounter any better opportunities after that.

Wang Zhicheng belongs to that kind of standard, not very talented, but experienced and obedient director, so he doesn't need to worry too much about his execution ability.

If it is a normal investment in a film and it is shot with the model of a major domestic director, to be honest, Fan Zhe would not dare to approach Wang Zhicheng. However, their style of making movies has always been to solve most of the problems in the project approval stage before shooting.

In this way, I don't worry too much about Wang Zhicheng's weakness, which will delay the quality of the movie too much.

Ever since, things settled down.
