Wang Zhongjun, that Wang Zhongjun from Huayi Brothers, has been 'restricted in height'.

Just because of over ten million in advertising fees.

Isn't it amusing? A big shot who has made so many blockbuster films and brought so many stars to fame, who could command the Chinese film industry, ultimately tripped over a bill that's neither too big nor too small.

I suddenly flashed back to the time when Huayi was at its peak.

Feng Xiaogang's New Year films, Huang Xiaoming, Zhou Xun, Li Bingbing... half of the entertainment industry was stamped with their logo. Who would have thought that one day 'Chairman Wang' wouldn't even be able to sit in first class on a plane or a first-class seat on a high-speed train?

Really, this matter, money isn't the most important.

Over ten million was just a drop in the bucket for the old Huayi.

But the underlying taste of this is too strong.

What does it indicate?

It indicates that the landlord's family really has no surplus grain left. When the wall falls, everyone pushes it down; even a small creditor like an advertising company dares to come knocking and forcefully demand payment.

The times have truly changed.

In the past, when we watched movies, we talked about directors, about stars, about IPs. And now? We talk about box office gambling, financial statements, and who has been executed.

Those stars and dreams once built up with capital and connections appear particularly... fragile in front of the cold, hard execution documents.

It really isn't a pleasant feeling.

The rise and fall of an industry, the twilight of a 'big shot', ultimately condenses into such a heart-wrenching piece of news.

To put it bluntly, no matter how big the world of Jianghu is, one must abide by the most basic rules—if you owe money, you must pay it back.

This is the simplest and also the most hardcore script.
