Chapter 254: Commissioner Smith's Slacking Off (34)

Seeing this, Liu Ye and Xu Zheng pulled Ning Hao away quickly.

Xu Zheng reminded: "Don't answer any questions, they are prepared."

Li Xiaolu wanted to beat up the female reporter.

Tao Hong was startled and quickly pulled Li Xiaolu back: "Don't be impulsive, ignore her."

Seeing Li Xiaolu's impulsive behavior, the female reporter was not afraid of being happy. She immediately shouted excitedly and raised the camera: "The creator of Shi Tou hit a woman, hit a female reporter!"

The female reporter rushed forward, taking advantage of the chaos, and rushed in front of Ning Hao and others.

According to the information she received, Ning Hao cared a lot about plagiarism.

She asked Ning Hao a carefully prepared question: "Many followers unconditionally support their idols, thinking, 'Even if someone copied, but the copy is better than yours, if you have the ability, you should copy it and let me see.'"

"The same thing happened with Crazy Stone. Some fans supported you, saying that at least you copied well. Are you proud of that?"

Ning Hao suddenly became angry.

This female reporter's gaze was extremely aggressive and provocative.

The questions are also provocative.

He was so angry and aggrieved that he finally couldn't stand it anymore and said, "I didn't plagiarize! I wrote my script even earlier than Guy Ritchie!"

"Multi-line narrative is just a narrative structure, just like linear narrative. I give Guy Ritchie credit for making this narrative flourish."

"But we can't say this narrative style is plagiarism. If that were the case, then most directors today are plagiarizing the first linear narrative work. What can we say about that?"

"The media cannot confuse right and wrong. I will accept what makes sense, but they cannot make up stories out of nothing."

Xu Zheng's face changed, and he thought something was wrong. He quickly stood between Ning Hao and the female reporter.

With his back to the female reporter, he gave Tao Hong a look, reminding Ning Hao: "Don't answer. If you answer, you will be fooled."

Tao Hong hugged the female reporter and called Li Xiaolu to join her: "Let's take her away. Let Ning Hao go first."

The female reporter was extremely excited and struggled wildly: "But your movie has many elements of Guy Ritchie's movie, how do you explain it?"

Xu Zheng dragged the angry and frustrated Ning Hao into the car.

While dialing Shen Santong's number, he said to Ning Hao, "I need to inform Director Shen immediately. This Nandu is here with ill intentions. Look at that female reporter. She's following me. She's well prepared."

A coffee shop.

Editor-in-Chief Hu is drinking coffee with the editor-in-chief of Nandu, Commissioner Smith, and foreign colleagues.

After reading a text message he just received, the editor-in-chief of Southern Metropolis Daily laughed out loud: "Forcing Ning Hao to respond, haha, good. Lao Hu, you are awesome! This method is great!"

Editor-in-Chief Hu smiled and said, "Shen Santong is a shameless person."

"No matter what methods or channels are used to criticize him in good faith, he is stubborn and unrepentant."

"It even undermined our international connections and almost ruined the overall development."

"Because of our institutional problems, we can't do anything about him."

"It's like stinky dog ​​shit. There's nothing I can do about it."

"Ning Hao is different. I have asked his former teachers and classmates."

"They told me that he was a good kid, had self-esteem, cared about art, but was just distracted for a while."

"It is possible to redeem him through criticism."

Commissioner Smith didn't want to hear any nonsense: "Can you interrupt the box office trend of this movie next?"

Commissioner Smith has been very nourished lately.

Because of his important and irreplaceable role, he was allocated one million US dollars in funding.

Although the money has not yet been paid by the Peanut Village Council, it has been reduced by half.

No one knows where he went.

No one dared to speak, and no one dared to ask.

Of the remaining $500,000, his U.S. department took $200,000.

The embassy master took away 100,000.

But in his hands, he still had $200,000, a considerable sum of money.

He spent 100,000 yuan on consulting fees, 50,000 yuan on developing downlines, and 30,000 yuan on social activities.

The 180,000 U.S. dollars was used to purchase unverifiable services and was transferred into his own pocket through various channels.

Of the remaining 20,000, 10,000 was his own savings for emergencies.

The other ten thousand is the working expenses.

Smith has grasped the essence of the job.

I want to do something, but I can't do anything.

Once he finishes his work, he will have nothing to do and will be unemployed immediately.

If you do nothing, you appear incompetent.

The best thing is to appear to be doing something but actually not doing anything.

He wants to stay in Laozhong for a few more years.

The food here is very good, and it feels great to earn US dollars and spend RMB.

There is no property tax, the security is better, and it is suitable for saving money.

You don’t have to worry about student loans for the next ten years.

Work hard and earn back the remaining student loan.

Smith gets angry when he thinks about student loans.

The student loan was a piece of shit. It didn't allow early repayment. Only death could forgive the debt. He studied for three degrees in college and borrowed $80,000. The interest rate was 14%, and the interest was compounded.

The interest will also be included in the principal in the second year.

The editor-in-chief of Nandu interrupted and said that the opportunity to perform cannot be given entirely to Lao Hu.

He said: "Mr. Smith can rest assured that as long as Ning Hao responds, we can take his words out of context and spread rumors to cause confusion among their supporters."

Editor-in-Chief Hu frowned and reminded: "It is not taking things out of context, it is selective and well-intentioned criticism."

The editor-in-chief of Nandu cursed Lao Hu in his heart as a bastard, always competing with him for performance.

As expected, he has a dog face.

Smith told them to stop arguing: "I've seen your performance, so do your job well."

He lamented that the United States was invincible and that these people were willing to be dogs for free.

After Shen Santong got the news and read Ning Hao's reply, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's hard for Shitou to surpass Shengkuai."

Fan Bingbing asked: "Are the consequences so serious?"

Shen Santong nodded: "There are two narratives at the moment."

"One is my narrative, which deconstructs Young and Dangerous, emphasizes the commercial film path, serves the audience, etc."

"The other kind is to deny me, to overturn everything from the smallest details, and to hinder the development of the film."

“These two narratives can be traced back to my first film, but I never paid attention to them and even used them in my birthday.”

"If they can't break through me, they'll start with Ning Hao."

"As soon as he responded, no matter what he said, he fell into the trap and entered the topic set by others."

"The popularity of Shitou has attracted attention. The two narratives were originally competing with each other. After Ning Hao responded, the other party must have reported on Ning Hao's words."

“My narrative is fundamentally a local narrative, which talks about facts, development and creation.”

"The narrative that denies me is an external narrative that stimulates emotions, creates anxiety, destroys, spreads rumors, and does not care about the facts."

"The latter narrative has a louder voice. Using Ning Hao's name will cause the potential audience to receive confusing information and lose focus."

If it was the first or second week, Shen Santong would not be afraid.

The movie's box office performance is unstoppable, and the impact of negative news is limited.

But the third week is the most tiring, and every gain or loss is very important.

There was confusion in the publicity, and subsequent box office sales are unlikely to meet expectations.

Shen Santong called to comfort Ning Hao: "Don't think too much, just answer it, enjoy your success, anyway, Shitou is successful enough."

Don’t blame Ning Hao, the culprits are some media.

In later generations, a journalist was killed in this way.

Stinky dog ​​shit is smelly, disgusting and difficult to clean up.

Shen Santong is a bit too judgmental of himself. Ning Hao is not him.

He can ignore the criticism because he has foresight and regards these people as clowns with extreme contempt.

Underestimating the influence these people have on people today.

From career to life, the all-round collapse and denial is not something that ordinary people can bear.

After thinking about it, Shen Santong decided, "Prepare a celebration banquet in advance. The promotion rhythm is going to be disrupted, so we should speed it up. The box office will be stimulated in the third week."

BJ.

Han Sanping and Yu Dong received the news, understood the whole story, and looked at each other in silence.

Yu Dong said: "Leader, why don't you react and try to stop them from messing around."

Han Sanping smiled bitterly: "I can't control it. No one can control it, let alone me."

It used to be a mindless translation machine, but now it has gotten even worse.

The journalists mentioned in the previous chapter and this chapter are not fictional.

I won’t mention the name, for fear that the book will be lost.

19, Hong Kong Island.

Those who know him will know who he is. The death of this reporter is chilling.

I changed my phone several times, but I still couldn’t get rid of the online exposure. Losing my job was still not the end.

The working and living environment of this reporter is like being undercover in a drug den. If he is exposed, he will be doomed.

The key is the unit he is in, which is chilling to think about.

The ecological environment of the news, journalists and media industries is completely broken.

I don’t write about people and things intentionally to disgust everyone, but to make movies, different narratives are meant to create impact and confrontation.

I see that few people write entertainment articles, but I think it would be too fake if they didn’t write them.

Narrative is a route, a standard, and a very cruel struggle. Like a Hollywood movie, it is about the epidemic. The image of the United States is completely shattered, the narrative is bankrupt, and the Chinese people feel uncomfortable no matter how they watch it.

In the past, some plots in Hollywood movies did not need to be explained. They were a powerful culture that saved the world, and it was taken for granted. Now it is no longer possible.

If all the professional schools try to please the audience, how can the authority of some academies exist? Box office has standards, but art has no standards. It can be firmly controlled by the academy.

To break this narrative is to be in the interests of the bad guys. Conflicts of interest cannot be mild.

Of course, since Shi Tou is the producer, he won’t write a long story and will end it quickly and move on to Red Cliff.

There will be another chapter later. Four chapters today, and Red Cliff tomorrow.
