Chapter 604: Let Strength Speak for Itself! Finally Going Public!
At the Second Star Building, Chen Jincheng received a call from CCTV: "Mr. Chen, this is Zhao Kao, the film and television supervisor from CCTV. The station has approved your script collaboration and is currently communicating with the review department. When you start the project, I will accompany the crew as the person in charge. Thank you for your help then."
"Then I'll leave the rest to Producer Zhao," Chen Jincheng said with a smile after hearing the other party's words.
The fact that they made this call means the project is already secured; with CCTV taking the lead, the script review and project approval are definitely not a problem.
Since he has issued a challenge to Chairman Liu and his group, he will definitely put a lot of effort into this filming and make "Raging Storm" a success.
Moreover, this drama achieved such great success in its previous life, even when it wasn't at the top of the popularity charts. Now, in this world, with its popularity and resources, there's no reason why it can't do even better.
However, this drama has problems with its subject matter and is subject to many restrictions, so it was necessary to bring CCTV into the project.
With the central bank backing it up and overseeing the review process, the standards can be relaxed considerably.
In the previous life, this drama was restricted by too many restrictions on content, so many things were not filmed, which affected a lot of the plot.
Moreover, the previous successful cooperation with the central bank had greatly benefited them, and they quickly agreed to this project.
After finishing his phone call with Zhao Kao, Chen Jincheng also checked the news online.
Today's hot topics are all about him.
One of them was naturally the project he discussed with Lei Xiaojun.
The fact that the two of them jointly invested 100 billion yuan in automobiles caused a sensation across the internet.
After all, the current car market has already been divided up, and several domestic car manufacturers are engaged in fierce competition.
Going in at this point might lead to being targeted, especially since it involves two people with no relevant industry experience or advantages.
They even want to develop new energy vehicles, which is an incredibly difficult task.
However, the two of them put up 100 billion yuan in their first investment, which is definitely a big deal.
Moreover, these two are Lei Xiaojun and Chen Jincheng. It seems they have a high chance of succeeding in causing trouble.
This has led to an increase in the stock prices of various new energy companies.
This shows the influence of the two people.
The key is that the relationship between these two is truly enviable. After all, it's not like anyone would just ask you to and I'd throw 50 billion at you.
Thinking back, it was probably because Lei Xiaojun invested in Chen Jincheng that many people said Lei Xiaojun was Chen Jincheng's mentor.
If it weren't for that investment, even if Chen Jincheng had succeeded, it would have been much later.
Sometimes time waits for no one, and Chen Jincheng might miss the opportunity for success.
Perhaps for this reason, Chen Jincheng has now invested in Lei Xiaojun's project without even thinking about it.
This is a way of repaying the elder brother.
This also shows that Chan Kam-ching is a person who values relationships and loyalty.
If a director were to ever decide to make a biographical film about these two people, then no matter who it is, the other would likely become an indispensable character.
Another piece of news is that Chan Kam-ching is going to film a TV series.
Moreover, the things he said to Chairman Liu were directly reported in the media.
His words were a bit arrogant. Although he had the right to be arrogant, since Chairman Liu himself had come to him with ulterior motives, Chairman Liu's status was undeniable, and he often represented one of the face of the industry.
Now that Chen Jincheng has directly issued such a challenge, it's as if he intends to completely dominate the industry. If it were a TV series produced by Second Star Company, they wouldn't have anything to say, after all, it's one of the top companies in the industry.
But Chen Jincheng's claim that he would personally direct the film is somewhat insulting. Even if the other party is the boss of Er Shi Xing Chen, and even if the other party has proven his unique vision in film and television, does that have anything to do with directing a TV series?
At least go and learn how to shoot movies and TV series, visit various film crews, sit down with industry bigwigs, create some buzz, and follow the rules, then they won't say anything.
Now that things are like this, don't blame them for sniping at us.
However, they were indeed worried about Chen Jincheng's status and position, as both Ershixingchen Film and Television Network and Dawan Cinema were things they relied on.
In other words, they rely on Chen Jincheng's company to make money, yet they are extremely unhappy with him. The key is that they have no way to express their dissatisfaction and can only grumble in secret.
Looking at the news reports and the information sent by Sun Ji, Chen Jincheng felt sorry for these people.
So he posted a message on his WeChat Moments, launching a sweeping attack: "Even in the film and television industry, you have to rely on your talent. Don't hide in the background like a clown."
These words quickly spread online, arousing the curiosity of countless onlookers.
After learning about the situation, these people understood what had happened. Many people who disapproved of the current state of the film and television industry also joined in the discussion.
"I think Chen Jincheng, as the boss of a film and television company, must be fed up with the current state of the film and television industry, especially since even his short dramas can't compare."
I support Chan Kam-ching. These people in the film and television industry these days are just feeding us garbage all day long. Honestly, their productions are worse than short dramas.
All I want to say is, Chen Jincheng did a great job. If everyone in the film and television industry can't compare to the TV dramas he produced, then it means this industry is completely rotten and utterly worthless.
I'm making a prediction here: the dramas those people in the film and television industry are making next will definitely be filled with torture and suffering at the hands of Chen Jincheng.
……
As the buzz grew, Chairman Liu and his associates clearly hadn't anticipated that, after the news broke, netizens would overwhelmingly support Chen Jincheng.
This is far too malicious towards them.
Do netizens really not know the contributions these people have made to film and television art?
Or do today's netizens simply not understand what film and television art is?
Many people feel very discouraged when they see this situation, thinking that the industry is truly finished, since most of the audience are like this.
Of course, many powerful companies have already begun preparations in full swing, as the special period has just passed and filming is a race against time.
Moreover, when Chen Jincheng's dramas come out, if they can surpass Chen Jincheng's, that will be a natural boost in popularity, and they can be directly hailed as legends.
Complaining and blaming others here is the stupidest thing to do.
Regardless, this matter is definitely the most talked-about topic on the entire internet right now, with related discussions and debates continuing for several days.
Shortly after, the official website of Second Star released an announcement, which finally made everyone aware of the name of the TV series that Chen Jincheng was going to film.
"hurricane"!
The project "Raging Speed" immediately became a hot topic of conversation among everyone.
In this context, a piece of news completely drew everyone's attention: the launch date for Kuaishou (筷手) was confirmed.
The question of what kind of staggering market capitalization this short video giant will achieve after its IPO is something that has piqued everyone's curiosity.
Moreover, people quickly realized that Chan Kam-ching also owned 25% of Chopsticks, and that Chan Kam-ching and Chan Yee-hau had a feud.
Now, in order to go public, both of them seem to be holding back.
What happens after it goes public? (End of Chapter)
