Chapter 625 Are they all useless? These bastards!
Chairman Liu and his group were very dissatisfied with Chen Jincheng's words, and even very annoyed.
Honestly, they didn't intend to make enemies with Chan Kam-ching at first.
It's simply because the short drama they produced really impacted their survival space in the film and television industry.
That's why they asked Chairman Liu to go and talk to Chen Jincheng. As long as the other party is willing to talk, the film and television industry can give up a lot of benefits.
They act with goodwill, and as long as the other party cooperates, they are willing to respect them.
After all, the other party has a film and television network, a film and television company, and a film and television platform. It's not shameful to let the other party be the boss.
But to everyone's surprise, Chen Jincheng didn't give them any face at all and directly confronted them.
This left them speechless, especially since everyone now knew about their feud with Chan Kam-Ching in the film and television industry.
Most importantly, they really couldn't do anything about Chen Jincheng; they couldn't compete with him in terms of capital, and they certainly couldn't compete with him in terms of connections.
Trying to manipulate public opinion?
Don't you see that they first brought 100 billion yuan in charitable donations to China, and then during the mask era, they donated a total of 150 billion yuan through personal and corporate donations?
It's worth noting that Taobao originally planned to donate only 2 million yuan, but later donated 10 billion yuan.
Later, people all over the internet started comparing various companies with Ershixingchen, and they couldn't sit still any longer. They donated another 10 billion, bringing the total to 22 billion.
The key point is that Chen Jincheng donated the money to the country, and they can only do the same thing.
Who could imagine such a scene?
Many people might find this unbelievable, like bullshit.
However, one thing to know is that the higher authorities won't remember who donated or how much they donated, but they will remember if someone donated a lot, even more than the top-ranked companies combined.
Taobao initially donated 2 million yuan, but was it because they could only donate 2 million yuan?
That's definitely not the case, because they've already donated the most they could, so what else is there to say?
Everyone essentially accepted it.
After all, if you donate too much, the shareholders will have objections. Most of those shareholders are just investors; how can they be truly dedicated to charity?
But now it's different. Someone dumped shares, a whopping 150 billion yuan. Those companies could only make a gesture, even if those capitalists were unwilling.
Those at the top benefit from this, so who understands the concept of a get-out-of-jail-free card?
Otherwise, that guy wouldn't dare to flirt with those girls so openly, and even give each of them a Bentley.
This also sets a bad trend, encouraging people to be openly promiscuous. Even if the authorities can't punish the person, they will at least remind them not to be so blatant.
But not now. The golden body is already established. As long as the other party doesn't make any fundamental mistakes and stays in the country, as for that little bit of flirtation, that's it.
If you're not married, it's only natural to be a little smug.
Therefore, they had no underhanded tactics to use against Chen Jincheng; they could only defeat him fair and square in terms of ratings and online viewership.
If all 10 of their dramas lose, it will be the darkest moment for the entire film and television industry, and their entire industry will be completely nailed to the pillar of shame.
Therefore, they cannot afford to lose this time, and they absolutely cannot afford to lose.
Chen Jincheng is just an amateur. It's one thing for the other party to make short dramas, but they don't have the ability to make TV series.
As time passed, the 10 dramas that Kuang Biao and the film and television industry had prepared were finally released together, and all of them were broadcast during prime time on major satellite TV channels.
This can be described as a cross-century battle in the film and television industry.
After all, the entire industry prepared 10 dramas to compete with the one TV series that Chen Jinchen filmed halfway through his career.
Moreover, releasing 10 dramas at the same time is not usually the most profitable strategy, since they are all vying for viewership, which would result in a very low overall viewership distribution.
But that's also the goal of those people in the film and television industry. As long as they can break even or even make a profit in the end, it doesn't matter if they earn a little less. It's fine if they can share in the soaring ratings of Chen Jincheng's show.
Everyone was curious about the final outcome, but only Chen Jincheng knew that these 10 dramas couldn't compare to "Raging Waves." They were all dramas set in another world, and while 6 of them did achieve phenomenal popularity, they were still far behind "Raging Waves."
The other four dramas all feature popular actors with strong fan bases, but unfortunately, relying on such popularity isn't a viable strategy for television dramas.
As for the idea of boosting viewership ratings, Chen Jincheng was naturally aware of it, but unfortunately, he didn't care.
They're not even in the same genre, so the fact that these shows are popular doesn't mean they're going to drag down the soaring ratings.
In fact, given its current popularity, the soaring viewership ratings will definitely be even higher than in its previous life.
Tonight is destined to be a night of binge-watching. People who are following this are watching 11 dramas on various platforms, feeling like they are acting as the grand judge of the film and television industry.
Chen Yixiao also sat in front of the TV to watch. He was not a big fan of dramas, but he couldn't help it because it involved Chen Jincheng.
He hates this guy now.
If the other party hadn't brought up the matter of giving red envelopes before the Spring Festival, perhaps he would have failed and his reputation wouldn't be what it is now.
He clearly became the richest man because of him, but now it's all because he can't carry the team anymore.
Chen Jincheng, the richest man in China, wanted to lead him to the top, but unfortunately, he was too incompetent.
He never felt he was bad at the game; he just felt unlucky.
Clearly, he had fallen into a mental dead end and couldn't get out of it, nor could he come up with a solution to the chopsticks problem.
Otherwise, he would be working overtime at the company right now, holding meetings and trying to figure out how to get through Kuaishou's current predicament.
It's even less likely that I'd watch Chen Jincheng's dramas here, wanting to see him embarrass himself.
Moreover, he now desperately hopes that those people in the film and television industry will step up and give Chen Jincheng a good slap in the face, which would be a way of venting his anger.
If these people can't even beat Chen Jincheng, an amateur, then they might as well just die.
Soon, the show started playing. At first, it didn't seem to have much of an impact, but in just a few minutes, the plot became exciting.
Especially when Gao Qiqiang appeared.
Chen Yixiao's expression quickly turned ugly. As a viewer, he could tell whether a show was good or bad.
The plot of "The Ride" is obviously very good, and the actors' performances are also outstanding.
He actually understood and became engrossed in the Thirty-Six Stratagems and the life philosophies they contained.
This doesn't seem like a show made by someone who's only recently started acting.
So he knew that this was bound to become a huge hit, which meant that Chen Jincheng might win.
How can he be happy if that's the case?
He was just laughing at Chen Jincheng.
He immediately tried changing the channel to watch other shows, hoping to find one that could surpass "Raging Waves," but the more he watched, the more gloomy his face became.
At least in his opinion, none of these dramas could compare to Crazy.
In other words, Chan Kam-ching is going to steal the spotlight again, which is even more painful for him than killing him.
"Are all the people in the film and television industry useless?" Chen Yixiao couldn't help but start ranting.
Just as he was complaining, his phone rang. Seeing the number, he answered immediately, and after a moment, his face turned ugly: "What did you say? Those shareholders had a private gathering? And they even met someone from Beijing?"
This was not good news; his already pale face quickly turned ashen.
In other words, the rumors circulating privately are true.
Those bastards! (End of Chapter)
