Disaster Artist

When the incident broke out, the eyes of industry insiders immediately focused on the seven major film companies. After all, the entire industry dared to do this, that is, these giant crocodiles at the top of the pyramid.

But soon, industry insiders denied this speculation—

The seven major film companies are vested interests, and maintaining the existing order and stability will benefit them without harm.

To be more precise, breaking the existing framework, the impact that the seven major film companies need to face will not be inferior to that of the Lanchuan Journalists Association.

In other words, they should stand on the same side as the Lanchuan Journalists Association.

Even if it wasn't, it wouldn't count as an enemy.

For the same reason, people in the industry have focused their attention on Blue Whale Pictures and even Damen Pictures.

Because they are rising stars, they are challengers, shockers, and revolutionaries. They need to break the existing rules of benefit distribution in order to stand out, and then nibble and carve up more benefits.

At least, from a theoretical perspective, that's true.

Even Xiu Zhongjun's first reaction was no exception. After all, with Lu Qian's lawless personality, it would not be surprising if he did this.

But Lu Qian clearly knew that the truth was not like that. He also hoped that he would become a warrior who overturned the dragon. However, the fact is that there is a chess player behind him. At the current level of him and Blue Whale Pictures, if Really single-handedly slaying the dragon, then the only end is the ashes.

So, who is it?

Maybe, Lions Pictures?

First of all, Lions Pictures has indeed faced financial problems in recent years. It is one aspect that its own operations have not been able to open up the situation. On the other hand, the copyright era that revolves around comics/novels has not kept pace. The most direct result is—

They have gradually been opened up by the magical film industry and the streamer film industry, and even behind the peak entertainment, the door film industry is even better.

Now, Lion Pictures has been competing with Tianshan Pictures and Qiyang Media, trying to get rid of the bottom position among the seven major film companies.

Second, there's another question about awards season.

Before Wei Wei's strong rise, Lions Pictures and Qiyang Media were the kings of the awards season. They each owned a mature independent film company, not only the capital chain was complete, but also the entire production and development system was excellent. Industry leader.

In terms of work quality, public relations ability, industry contacts, reputation, etc., these two companies are far ahead and compete with each other, but the rise of Wei Wei has broken the balance and divided a big cake.

It would be fine if it was a "three-legged confrontation", but now the problem is that Wei Wei took the lead, but left Xiongshi Pictures and Qiyang Media behind.

In other words, Lions Pictures is indeed facing difficulties.

Objectively speaking, behind the actions of Lions Pictures to develop the "Deadpool" project, it can be seen that they are swaying, facing the impact of reality, and at the same time holding back because of the indecision of the management.

You can make a bold assumption, overturn Wei Wei, attack the Lanchuan Journalists Association, change the pattern of the awards season, and return to the battlefield that Lions Pictures is most familiar with and good at. Come to your own opportunity.

Or, Fantastic Pictures?

Fantastic Pictures is another story.

For now, Magic Pictures is running smoothly without any problems. Even in the arena battle with Streamer Pictures, they have quietly gained the upper hand, as if they have occupied the top spot in the film industry, and are expanding step by step. Advantage.

However, there is one small detail, very, very small detail:

Wei Wei, from Fantastic Pictures.

Speaking of Wei Wei's career, he was an ordinary little producer in the early stage. He didn't have any special talents. He made a series of works in a slanted way, but the style was not clear enough. Any type wants to try and get a piece of the pie.

Therefore, Wei Wei has not been able to rise like the gate film industry, but is more like a speculative, drilling business in the film industry.

After working in the independent film circle for many years, although he has not produced many outstanding works, he has penetrated into the industry and established an extensive network of contacts.

Then, Wevey seized the opportunity, he realized the predicament of Fantastic Pictures -

Thirty years ago, superhero movies were far from reaching the time of their rise. Fantastic Films’ family-friendly film productions repeatedly hit a wall. The company was even on the verge of bankruptcy for a time. They hoped to make a difference during the awards season. An independent film company broadens the genre.

To put it simply, those R-rated works that are not in line with family fun, those works that are **** violent swords, and those that reflect real life are all produced by this independent film company to fill the existing film types of Fantastic Pictures. Shortcomings, and at the same time avoid affecting the brand image of Magic Pictures.

With his eloquence, Wei Wei persuaded Magic Pictures to buy his company, backed by a big tree, and this opened the road to growth.

However, Wei Wei is naturally rebellious. He has always been arrogant and unrestrained. He can't stand the **** and has had many conflicts with Magic Films. Moreover, Wei Wei has never refused to bow his head, deceive the superior and conceal the inferior, and disobey the superior. The leader replied yes, turned around and went his own way.

Back and forth, the top management of Magic Pictures was very embarrassed.

About seven years ago, Wei Wei and Fantastic Pictures officially broke up, but the two sides were very unhappy because of disagreements over the ownership of Wei Wei Productions.

Wei Wei's production company is named after his parents' names, "Weika Films", which has a special meaning to him, so when he leaves, he hopes to leave with the company name, Then continue the name and start a new company.

But Fantastic Pictures refused.

Although Wei Wei played the emotional card, from an objective standpoint, Wei Ka Film has become a signboard in the industry and has a strong appeal in the independent film circle. If Wei Wei leaves with a name, it will be easy to do Take with him the fame he's built up over the years at Fantastic Pictures.

From a commercial point of view, it is impossible for Fantastic Pictures to agree.

Wei Wei has been spreading rumors in the industry to slander the top management of Magic Pictures, so that the two sides fought a war of words in Lanchuan, almost going to court, and entangled for nearly two years.

Ended with Wevey's failure. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

As a result, Wei Wei later established "Wei's Brothers Pictures" and joined forces with his younger brother to start a business.

But for Fantastic, the partnership was a painful experience, and the end of the partnership was abysmal, and they didn't have any connection with Wevey after that.

Over the years, Wei Wei is still on the rise, and Webster Brothers Pictures has become another big name in the industry, making a big splash in the awards season every year.

However, Weka Films, which stayed in Fantastic Films, has become a cancer, constantly eroding Fantastic Films' profits like a black hole. Dissipated, and it has been lingering in just a few years.

Last year, Fantastic Pictures officially closed Weka Films, ending a two-decade-long myth in the independent film industry.

Apparently, Fantastic Pictures didn't like Wevey, you could even say that they hated Wevey—

If it wasn't for the superhero movies that saved Fantastic Pictures, the cancer of Weka Pictures might really drag Fantastic Pictures into the dark abyss.
