A different director [entertainment circle]

"I announce that for the movie "Born in the Mud", except for production costs, cost costs, and account sharing costs, all box office profits will be donated to a public welfare fund after deducting taxes according to law, which will be mainly used for the construction of basic education in our country."

When Qin Yan said these few words, his expression was very calm. He looked around at the reporters below, as if he was saying that he ate a poached egg this morning, which was nothing special.

The press box below has always been sparse, and the floodlights and shutters that kept ringing suddenly stopped abruptly, and a needle could be heard.

All the reporters present kept one posture and looked at Qin Yan, while Qin Yan on the stage was like the legendary Medusa, all the people swept by him were petrified and stilled.

At the same time, the message board of the live webcast also stopped changing. Whether it was those with ulterior motives, onlookers who simply watched the fun, or movie fans who liked Xie Beiyang and Qin Yan, they were all completely stunned. Time to hit the keyboard.

This kind of surprise lasted only for a second or two, and was immediately replaced by great doubts. They were all roaring in their hearts: Qin Yan, if you want to talk, just keep talking!It's hard to break here, don't you know?

As a result, some netizens on the Internet began to swipe their screens to leave messages frantically, and the entire comment area was constantly scrolling and refreshing. Even though several live video sites had done expansion processing and stress tests in advance, they still collapsed for a while.

"What is Qin Yan talking about? Is he talking about turning the proceeds into a fund?"

"Did he just say how much he would donate, that he would take out all the profits from the movie?"

"I think Qin Yan must have made a slip of the tongue, and he should only take part of it. The box office of "Born in Silt" is now worth [-] million US dollars. If all the profits and profits are taken out, wouldn't it be hundreds of millions of Chinese dollars?"

"I reckon he's talking about all the profits in the mainland region, and he's done enough to shut up the people who broke his dirty water recently."

"Anyway, I don't believe that Qin Yan will really take out all the money. If he really does, I'm willing to call him a man."

"Who are you? Does Director Qin still need your approval?"

"Are you all deaf? Can't you hear what Director Qin said is to remove all the production costs, theater distribution accounts, etc., and only use the net profits to donate."

"Oh, I understand now that you said that. Qin Yan must deduct most of the money, and finally tell everyone that the final net profit is only a little bit."

"But I remember something wrong. Do you still remember that before the movie was released, Tenghui Pictures had already announced on the Internet the proportion of theaters for "Born in the Silt" this time? Didn't you always say that it was in recent years? The most favorable share ratio. Haven’t the share ratios of other domestic and foreign cinemas been announced? Now it’s easy to calculate with just one calculation.”

"It's reasonable for you to say that. But don't you think this incident is weird from the beginning to the end? If Qin Yan wanted to donate less money, then he shouldn't have announced the details of these accounts with such fanfare in the first place."

"I wanted to show off before, but I didn't expect everyone to find out that he was making black-hearted money, so he had to take out the money. This is called lifting a rock and shooting yourself in the foot."

"Again, Director Qin didn't steal or rob. Why can't he decide how to use the money he earned through hard work in making movies?"

"Then what did he set up the foundation for? I think he's guilty. It's hard to say that he didn't cheat at the box office or evade taxes! I think the central government should set up a special team to investigate Qin Yan. I think He's a sanctimonious hypocrite."

"I believe in Qin Yan, it's absolutely not like this. Didn't you forcefully ask Director Qin to donate money to make this press conference possible?"

"What's the use of your belief? Ask yourself with your conscience, if you didn't do anything wrong, would you spend hundreds of millions of dollars for public welfare just because others called you to donate money? Wake up! Do you think this world How many Xiumei funds are there?"

The discussion on the Internet became more and more intense. People did not praise Qin Yan because he chose to use all the proceeds from "Born in the Silt" for charity, but raised more doubts.

Although there are many people on the Internet who want to believe Qin Yan, they will indeed be affected by these doubts.Putting ourselves and others apart, would they spend so much money because of other people's suspicion?The answer for most people is no.

For a while, the voice of support for Qin Yan on the Internet weakened again.

Obviously, behind this is someone manipulating public opinion.

In the past, he used morality to drive Qin Yan to a desperate situation, regardless of his deeds, only to see if Qin Yan donated money; now he suddenly began to talk about his heart regardless of his deeds, saying that Qin Yan's behavior was caused by a guilty conscience.

A set of double standards, played quite smoothly, if it were another person, I am afraid that it would not be head-to-head with public opinion.

After all, such moral judgments have existed in the past, exist now, and will continue to exist in the future.Most of the public's memory is only one or two months, and it will pass after a while. Such a moral trial is not enough to hurt Qin Yan.

But Qin Yan didn't want to bear it any longer, he really thought he had no temper.

Everyone was surprised, including those who had always hated Qin Yan, and felt that it was untrue for Qin Yan to spend all his money to set up a fund.

But they are afraid that they will encounter a lunatic, so they immediately arrange a public relations team to formulate coping strategies.

The reporters at the scene couldn't suppress their excitement, and the reporter of "Watching Movies" magazine, who had the closest relationship with Qin Yan, had already raised his hand to signal.

Qin Yan still had an impression of "Watching a Movie". Looking at the location arranged for "Watching a Movie" by the conference department, he knew that the other party was definitely not a thorn in the side.Ding Chang on the side has already clicked on the other party and asked the reporter to ask questions.

The reporter of "Watching Movies" swallowed hard, obviously a little nervous, and kept adjusting the wording in his mind:

"Director Qin, can you tell me about the establishment of a charity fund just now? There are some things you said just now that we don't quite understand."

The reporter had actually said it very euphemistically, and even in his heart he thought that Qin Yan might have made a slip of the tongue just now.But it was impossible for him to directly ask Director Qin Yan "Do you want to use all the proceeds to set up a charity fund", so he could only euphemistically ask Qin Yan to explain again.

This is a reporter who knows how to read words and expressions. No wonder he was sent by "Watching Movies" to attend such an important press conference.

Qin Yan nodded, and said calmly: "Just like what you heard just now, after deducting various costs such as theaters and distribution of "Born in the Silt", all profits will be used to build public welfare funds."

As if afraid that everyone would not hear clearly, Qin Yan continued: "Now the box office of "Born in Silt" has reached 1 million US dollars, and the donation amount is about 5000 million US dollars. The box office of subsequent movies will increase, and the donation amount will also be adjusted accordingly. "

Because this is the second time Qin Yan has said this matter, and now Qin Yan's speech speed has been deliberately slowed down, every reporter and online audience can hear it very clearly, it is this clarity that makes them feel that their brains A little underwhelming, creating an airy feeling.

Everyone felt that the amount was beyond their imagination.

Although most people think that Qin Yan is likely to be forced to donate part of the money for public welfare under the pressure of public opinion, but they think it is estimated to be several million, and the unit is still Chinese coins.

Now it has directly doubled by a hundred times, and it is not the final data yet. "Born in Silt" has at least tens of millions of dollars at the box office.

Qin Yan was able to make such a decision in just a few days, and everyone was amazed at Qin Yan's courage.

Those who are dissatisfied with Qin Yan have already begun to think about how to reverse the subsequent changes in public opinion, and they have no way out, so they can't just throw in the towel and surrender.

Of course, in their view, Qin Yan's use of money to set up a fund was nothing more than a waste of money to eliminate disasters.They don't care what Qin Yan thinks, even if Qin Yan really wants to do something good, anyway, they can continue to splash dirty water.

They are people who will maliciously attack others for the sake of profit. Do you still expect that such people will have any kind thoughts in their hearts?

Of course, they still have more doubts in their hearts, why did Qin Yanhui make such a bold and stupid decision?

Indeed, as long as the news of Qin Yan donating money spreads, the bad comments about "Born in the Silt" and Qin Yan in China will disappear immediately.

But in this way, Qin Yan can't make any money at all, and this reputation can't be exchanged for so much money.

More importantly, Qin Yan's behavior undoubtedly put other practitioners in the film industry on fire.

Now everyone in the entire film and television industry is making money in a low-key manner. This is a very profitable industry, and more and more capital is flocking to it.

Why are there so many bad movies, because bad movies can also make money!

And in order to make money, domestic film and television themes can be said to be all-inclusive, such as depression, bullying, anti-Japanese, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, cheating and so on.Especially some works that are covered with bullying and depression, and earn a lot of money. I have never heard of any movie that uses its proceeds for public welfare.

Capital does not talk about feelings or social welfare with you, and occasionally buys reputation with money.

If Qin Yan really donated the hundreds of millions of proceeds from "Born in the Silt" to charity, where would other movies be?

This is equivalent to publicly mocking other colleagues in the film industry. The result of welcoming Qin Yan will only be suppressed by the entire industry.

Qin Yan has indeed thought about this issue. If he wants to establish a charity fund, the difficulties he will face are definitely not only the pressure from taxation, manpower, and funds, but more from his peers.

Think about it, the winter vacation is coming soon, the teacher said: "Everyone only needs to finish "Winter Vacation Life", and you can arrange the rest of the winter vacation time yourself!"

At this time, a top student in the class jumped out and said enthusiastically:

"Teacher, I think one copy of "Winter Vacation Life" is not enough. In order to improve the grades of all the students in our class, I suggest that each person should do another copy of "Five-Year College Entrance Examination and Three-Year Simulation"!"

No matter what reason this bully has for saying this, whether he really thinks about his classmates, this bully will definitely be excluded by other students in the class.

Is Qin Yan afraid of these problems?

He is doing nothing now, and has been regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh by others.

Now that there is a proper lure, Qin Yan can directly push some things away, so he doesn't have to be so restrained.

Since you think my method is wrong, then you should try to make films that surpass me and make more money than me.

Anyway, as long as Qin Yan can still make movies and make money, he has enough confidence to do anything.The capital market is so realistic, whoever can make money, whoever has money, is the master.

Of course, another more important reason is that Qin Yan's fund was not established specifically for these slanders at the beginning.It can only be said that some people were really "lucky" and happened to hit Qin Yan's muzzle.

"Director Qin Yan! Can you talk about the fund in detail? Is it because the public opinion on the Internet forced you to make such a decision?"

"Director Qin! Do you think all filmmakers should do more public welfare activities?"

These questions were all expected by Qin Yan, he said calmly:

"About this fund was actually decided when the film project was established. The city of the fund has nothing to do with online discussions. I don't agree with or accept all kinds of comments on "Born in Silt" on the Internet."

"Actually, I didn't think about announcing it at first, but now there are a lot of controversies about the movie on the Internet, so we chose to announce it."

If "establishing a fund" was Qin Yanliang's first bayonet, then "establishing a fund at the beginning of the film project" means that Qin Yan repeatedly poked holes in the enemy's body with the bayonet.

And this "we" is a little subtle. Some keen reporters have written the word "we" on their notebooks and repeatedly drawn the source.

Qin Yan didn't wait for the reporters to ask questions slowly, he knew that most of the reporters had lost their ability to ask questions normally, and didn't know which questions were the key points.

"Next, let me tell you about the situation of the fund."

Qin Yan then announced a lot of details about the Yi Fund, and the photos of the documents with big red stamps were projected on the screen, announcing its authenticity and validity to everyone.

Sure enough, according to the filings of relevant state agencies, the fund named "Pond" had submitted an application for establishment in April last year, and it had passed the review in May.

Qin Yan's name was clearly written in the fund applicant column, but what surprised the reporter was that Xie Beiyang's name also stood side by side with Qin Yan.

Moreover, at the beginning of its establishment, the fund has already injected 1000 million yuan of capital, and has passed the capital verification review of relevant institutions.

Even the fund management plan, fund donation channels, and fund management committee have already been determined through internal meetings.These materials are quite complete, definitely not materials that can be forged in a few days.

Now all the reporters and the audience watching the live broadcast on the Internet have become numb, and their emotions completely follow Qin Yan, in a state of "I believe everything you say".

There are always people who dare not be lonely. If this press conference continues according to Qin Yan's rhythm, the information they see and understand will be the side Qin Yan wants to show.

So a reporter stood up and interrupted Qin Yan:

"You just said that you want to give all the proceeds to the fund, right?"

"Ah."

"However, we see that among the film production expenses listed just now, there is one difference from your forgotten habits. In addition to the fixed remuneration, many actors also have box office splits. Does this mean that when calculating the income, this part will be taken into account deduct."

In fact, the combined box office share ratio of all actors is only about 10%.

This number is not particularly large, but if it is not handled properly, it is likely to be discredited, saying that Qin Yan evaded the fund through the way of salary, etc.

"As for this question, I think it's better to invite the person concerned to answer you."

What the hell is Qin Yan trying to do?Thinking of the fact that the names of Xie Beiyang and Qin Yan were listed side by side on the founder of the fund just now, the reporters immediately re-checked whether their recording pens were turned on, and took out their pens and notebooks at the same time. They felt that this was another big event.

"By the way, let me tell you something first. The Pond Fund was originally Xie Beiyang's idea. From a certain point of view, he has more say than me."

After speaking, Qin Yan directly handed the microphone to Xie Beiyang, completely ignoring the reporters who were petrified again.

Xie Beiyang was very silent today, he didn't see any interaction with other actors during the whole process, and even looked more serious than Director Qin, who is usually known for his maturity and reliability.

On the one hand, the recent public opinion incidents have greatly touched Xie Beiyang. He never thought that a good movie would be criticized by others like this; , It was all his idea. After the filming was completed, he was responsible for a lot of meticulous work.

Xie Beiyang said straight to the point: "All the actors including me, except for the fixed salary, all box office accounts will be accounted for as film profits and donated to the pond fund!"

Unexpectedly, Qin Yan's hole cards were played one after another, which made people dizzy.

Even if Qin Yan set up a fund by himself, he even led the actors to donate the box office share to the pond fund. This is unprecedented.

The reporters don't want to let Xie Beiyang go, Qin Yan is just an old fritter, watertight, they can only place their hopes on the more innocent and youthful Xie Beiyang.

Anyway, what Qin Yan said just now, if you have any questions, feel free to ask them, of course they will not miss such a good opportunity.

As long as they can dig out one or two hot news, they will make a worthwhile trip.

Qin Yan didn't stop him either, the more acute these issues were, the better the publicity effect would be achieved in the end.

So a reporter went on to ask:

"I want to know if director Qin Yan has forced the actors to donate. Although we advocate public welfare, we also believe that everyone's property is sacred and inviolable. We cannot force anyone to donate."
