Chapter 606: The Bearded Director Apologizes



Chapter 606: The Bearded Director Apologizes

But this time, before Su Yang could take it seriously, the bearded director’s temper flared up. He waved his hand. “Fine, we won’t use her shots! She’s just an A-Ranked celebrity! Would I not be able to complete this movie without you guys?”

His words were rather brave, but he quickly revealed his real thoughts. “You guys don’t know anything about movies! You guys don’t even know how to act on the big screen! Both you and the celebrities within your agency will never be able to act in movies during this lifetime. You’ll only be able to act in those lousy dramas and online movies!”

The moment he said that, the impact was huge. The producer quickly stopped him and told him not to say anything. It was fine if he said it in private, but if it got out, it would not be good.

However, the bearded director did not care. All he wanted to do was speak as he pleased. ‘In all my years within the industry, I’ve never suffered such humiliation!

‘Especially since Su Yang is an investor in an online movie... What rights does he have to criticize me, a cinema director?’

Hence, he shouted at Su Yang, “Do you think that you’ve entered the entertainment industry just because you’ve invested in an online movie? I’m telling you now! Online movies don’t even scratch the edge of the entertainment industry! It’s just the periphery! You guys are worlds apart from the entertainment industry!”

There was absolute silence.

No one had thought that the bearded director would be so stubborn?

Whether online movies could be considered as an entertainment industry or not had always been a controversial issue, especially for those in the film industry.

However... Although this was the case, such matters would only be discussed in private.

If anyone were to really speak of the topic openly like what the bearded director had just done, it would easily arouse the resentment of those actors and directors who were born in the online movie industry and they would only end up making their lives difficult!

However, now that the bearded director had broken the unspoken rules and brought this matter up to the public, no one dared to interfere in fear that they might even implicate themselves.

At that moment, Su Yang spoke. “So what if it’s an online movie? The internet is just a carrier. It’s no different from a big screen. They’re just carriers in the art form of movies!”

“There’s no such thing as high or low value when it comes to carriers. The only difference is the movie itself and only the movie itself!”

Su Yang was speaking in a politically correct manner. Even though everyone present knew that he was bullsh*tting, how could there be no difference in value between carriers?

Using paper as a carrier of traditional literature meant looking down on online literature.

Handmade tools would then look down on assembly lines.

The cinema operators would then look down on online movies.

Sometimes, people were nostalgic and this kind of nostalgia was beyond rational judgment.

But... No matter how much they thought that, they didn’t dare say it aloud. Except... The bearded director.

The bearded director was really infuriated by Su Yang. He had been in the film industry for eight years and had five films in total. Other than his lack of experience when he was a virgin and being bullied on set, he was always a tyrant on set!

Even the producer was willing to give him enough respect and protect his dignity during filming.

In the end, he did not expect that the producer of a small online movie would dare to talk back to him on set, so he did not care about what the people in the industry would think if they found out.

After all, he was a director. As long as he did not offend the real film producers in the industry and the movies he filmed could earn money, it would not affect him too much!

As the top of the food chain in the entertainment industry, directors were much more liberal and tolerant than actors.

Therefore, he snorted. “You make it sound so nice. You’re just trying to flatter yourself! If you’re so capable, why don’t you make a cinema movie too?”

Su Yang chuckled and shrugged. “Excuse me. Allow me to introduce myself again.”

After saying that, he flicked his clothes. “I’m not only the producer of the online movie “Fighting The Buddha”, I’m also the producer and vice filmmaker of the movie, “Wolf Warriors”.”

The moment Su Yang finished speaking, the entire place fell silent.

No one expected things to turn around.

No one had expected that the original online movie producer would turn into a cinema movie producer.

Even though they were both producers, this was completely different.

One was in the middle of the entertainment industry’s food chain, while the other was at the top.

In the entertainment industry, one could offend anyone but the producers. They were even bigger big shots than filmmakers.

Initially, the bearded director was so gentle because he thought that Su Yang was a producer of a cinema movie. Later on, he became so arrogant because he knew that Su Yang was not.

And now... Su Yang has proven that he was once again.

For a moment, everyone felt that Su Yang was performing magic by changing constantly.

The bearded director’s arrogance vanished instantly. He no longer dared to be as arrogant as before. He quickly looked at his friend Producer Zhao, his gaze questioning and pleading.

Obviously, the person who told him Su Yang’s identity was Producer Zhao. He wanted an explanation.

Producer Zhao hurried over and greeted Su Yang with a smile. “Mr. Su, I didn’t expect to see you here.”

After greeting him, he said, “I know about our company’s situation. Other than me, we don’t even have an employee and don’t have any resources in the industry. Why did you suddenly invest in a cinema? You couldn’t have been cheated, have you?”

Producer Zhao’s words sounded nice, as if he was thinking for Su Yang’s sake, but he was trying to undermine Su Yang.

How could Su Yang not see through his motive? He immediately shut him up with the truth. “My film company has already expanded to over forty people. I have carefully selected the movies and they have all passed the audit. There is no such thing as being cheated.”

The bearded director’s face was a little pale, but he still felt a little embarrassed. He muttered softly, “Who knows if he invested millions or tens of millions in a small movie. It might go off after a few days.”

Su Yang’s ears were sharp, so he could hear everything clearly. He said to the audience, “The movie is called “Wolf Warriors”. We’ve invested 150 million yuan and 70 million yuan from Jiadian Pictures. This movie has passed the reviewing session and the promotional campaign has already begun. It will be released next month, and the movie will have 30% of the screenings.”

The moment Su Yang finished his sentence, everyone was shocked once again. This was truly a big production. He was a genuine film producer!

At that moment, someone checked the information and said softly, “It’s true. I’ve found some information. Jiadian Pictures, “Wolf Warriors”, Director Wu Feng and Su Yang, the producer. It’s all here.”

The place instantly became noisy as everyone started to look through the information or the information that others were looking for.

Producer Zhao froze on the spot. He could neither stay nor leave and was left in an extremely awkward spot.

As for the bearded director, his face turned red and white. He did not expect that he had actually offended a film producer. ‘This is all Producer Zhao’s fault.

‘If Producer Zhao did not come and claim that he knew Su Yang’s identity and that he was the boss of his own company, I would not have dared to treat Su Yang like this.

‘As for mocking online movies, strictly speaking, Producer Zhao is a drama producer. Although he doesn’t earn much money in the entertainment industry, his status was high, so he could not be mocked.’

Therefore, the bearded director did not know how he would be able to escape his predicament.

At that moment, his assistant ran over and silently passed the phone to him. Then he mumbled something under his breath.

After a while, the bearded director’s eyes gradually lit up. He pondered for a moment before nodding.

Holding the phone in his hand, the bearded director said to Su Yang, “Mr. Su, I was in the wrong previously. There’s something wrong with my attitude. I sincerely apologize to you and Miss Han Yi.”

He nodded at Han Yi and Su Yang. “I’m sorry.”

Everyone stopped talking. They looked at the tyrant in front of them and lowered their heads in apology.

At that moment, Su Yang’s position in their hearts had reached the highest point. To be able to make a hot-tempered director admit his mistake was not something that an ordinary person could achieve.

Su Yang, on the other hand, had forced the bearded director to admit his mistake with his professionalism and status.

Su Yang nodded in satisfaction.

He was not an unforgiving person. Since the bearded director had admitted his mistake, there was no problem in letting bygones be bygones.

Just then, the bearded director looked up at Su Yang and said, “But, Mr. Su, since you’re doubting my professional standards, I would like to question your professional standards as well.”

Then, he took out his phone and said, “If I’m not mistaken, the director of your movie is Wu Feng, isn’t it?”

Su Yang nodded.

The rest of the crew discussed in low voices.

“Who is Wu Feng?”

“I don’t know him.”

“I think he’s a martial arts star, but he’s a little outdated.”

“Oh... I see. How did he become a director?”

“I don’t know.”

The bearded director said, “Director Wu Feng used to be an outstanding martial arts actor in the industry and has filmed many good movies. Everyone can see that. But he doesn’t seem to be a good director.”

“The debut movie he directed, “Legendary Assassin” only earned 7.56 million yuan at the box office with a capital of 40 million yuan. After that horrendous incident, he wasn’t even able to return 10% of his capital.”

“After that, the movies that he acted in did not do well.

“Are you sure that a director who can be considered a newcomer is able to produce a good movie? Is he able to control such a huge capital?”

“The total investment for the movie is 150 million, so there has to be some markup to come up to that amount. Even if we cut it half, 75 million, this movie will need at least 200 million to recoup its losses. Do you think Director Wu Feng’s movie will be able to achieve a turnover that’s 30 times higher than his virgin movie?!”

As soon as the bearded director said that, the film crew immediately started discussing.

“Holy f*ck! Was Wu Feng so miserable earlier?”

“I seem to remember him.”

“Even so, Mr. Su actually has the courage to invest in him? He’s an absolute fool.”

The rules of the entertainment industry had always been a bloody winner-take-all rule. Whether it was the investors or the directors, they all believed that a successful person could continue to succeed!

On the other hand, those who failed had no value.

Especially those who had failed many times, no one would be willing to give them a chance.

It was extremely cruel.
