I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 304 [People who care]

": Director Lu's operation this time is a bit bad."

": When will it be played? Has it been scheduled yet?"

": I just have a holiday next month, I hope I can catch up."

": Hey, I have something to do during the summer vacation."

": After reading those tweets, I will definitely not watch Lu Zhengyi's movie!"

……

The news that The Grudge 2 will be released soon is naturally good news for fans.

In a busy life, there are some interesting things, such as a favorite singer releasing a new song, a favorite actor filming a new movie, or a new restaurant opening somewhere... These are all ways to soothe the spirit.

And when this news was bundled with the entry "Zhang Yu's posthumous works", there were some other voices.

I am disgusted with such bundled marketing, consuming the dead and disrespecting the dead...

But in addition to these objectionable voices, there are also people who simply don’t care about these marketing strategies.

All they knew was that their favorite director had made a new movie and it was about to be released.

On their days off, they no longer have to just play games and sleep at home. Instead, they have an excuse to go out and make appointments with friends to go to dinner or watch movies.

With Lu Zhengyi's current fame, not only the entire Tang Dynasty, not to mention the 1.4 billion population, would know his name, but at least half of the people would know his name.

Among them, there are only a quarter of those who pay attention to his works.

In terms of box office data, the highest-grossing of his works is The Grudge, which ultimately grossed a total of 1.6 billion Tang Yuan in China, ranking 36th in the history of Tang films.

In the Tang Dynasty, the price of a movie ticket ranged from 20 yuan to 60 yuan depending on the size of the venue, city, and theater. After compromise, the number of people buying tickets would have to be 40 million.

These 40 million people are the audiences who bought movie tickets and came to the scene to support.

In addition to these, there are definitely more people who are more willing to watch on online platforms, or even channels for pirated websites.

With such a huge crowd, there are always different voices.

As for the public relations plan for this incident, Guangying has already prepared it.

These media reports had just emerged. In less than half a day, the real-name authenticated official accounts of Light and Shadow Group and Mei Li Mao Studio responded immediately.

Not only did he denounce the actions of these media, but he also made public all the chat logs, recordings and even videos that had previously requested them to remove the news of Zhang Yu's death, and attached a letter of opinion from Zhang Yu's family.

In fact, they can be faster.

The reason for wasting this half day is mainly to keep records, screenshots and videos of the copywriting of these media reports...

The staff of the Ministry of Justice took the materials they had prepared and immediately filed a case against these media outlets.

The entire process was carried out in an orderly manner. Only a few hours after these reports appeared, one by one was ordered to be deleted. At the same time, the entries and hot searches for this matter on various platforms were also directly downgraded.

No matter how high the discussion is, these contents no longer appear on the hot search lists or entries.

Suddenly, those netizens who were attacking Mei Li Mao, Guang Ying, and Lu Zhengyi began to divide again.

Some people insist that this is still a marketing campaign. Lu Zhengyi and others want to have both sides. They want these media to help promote the movie and expand the popularity of the movie, but they also don’t want to bear the bad reputation of eating human blood steamed buns;

Some people think that it is because the media looks so ugly and it has nothing to do with Lu Zhengyi and others;

Others believe that these media have objectively reported the facts. The person died and this is his legacy. These are all facts and there is nothing to argue about...

"They felt that we had a script, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to handle it so quickly. They thought this was just marketing."

At dinner time, in the light and shadow canteen, Lu Zhengyi ate beef with pickled vegetables, chicken with green pepper, and cooked white rice neatly.

Next to him, Zhang Xueming's face was gloomy and she looked very angry. She was scrolling through her phone and kept talking.

"It was handled so quickly because we knew the virtues of those people and made preparations in advance."

"Some netizens think that since we have prepared in advance, why don't we solve the problem before it arises? Please, we have warned these media before not to report relevant news, otherwise we will investigate further, but they did not listen."

"These media may think that because there are too many newspapers reporting on it, we don't dare to investigate further, and the law does not hold everyone accountable."

"The hands are all grown on their hands. With a stroke of a pen or a tap on the keyboard, the methods we can deal with in advance are very limited, okay?"

"We can't say that we will lock them up or let their news agencies close down, right? No, in this era, even if we have expectations and prepared in advance, we can only wait for them to make mistakes before we can make a decision response."

It's like trying to reason with a child, telling him that scissors, or other dangerous items, or dangerous plots on TV cannot be touched, eaten, or studied. These are all dangerous.

But the children are disobedient and insist on touching them. They touch them when their parents are not around, stuff them into their mouths and eat them, imitating the plots on TV.

Therefore, homes with children always have medicines, hemostatic tape, and other items on hand, just to be able to respond in time when something like this happens.

But after saying this, those who had never taken care of children began to complain, why they had to wait until the child was injured before they started to worry.

You can't think of this before the child is injured. Put away all the dangerous items, hide all the inedible things, and avoid the child when watching TV programs.

But I'm sorry, the child is alive and can move.

The media are also alive, they are moving, and they have ideas. If they don't warn or threaten, they will be obedient.

"This is not the first time something like this has happened. It's just that this time it's more serious. Why are you so anxious?" Lu Zhengyi looked at her helplessly, put down his chopsticks, helped her pick up the rice next to her, and then covered it with rice. On a stone pot filled with hot soup.

Mainly beef soup, plus green peppers, onions, minced green onions, chili sauce, enoki mushrooms, white tofu... to make a miso soup. When it's time to eat, add white rice.

This way of eating rice in soup can stimulate appetite to a certain extent for people who have a poor appetite.

Of course, this way of eating doesn’t seem very healthy.

But for Zhang Xueming, who is currently fuming and with a bulging face, it is just right.

"Here."

Lu Zhengyi handed her the stone pot and the spoon, "It's just a little thing."

"But when I saw them talking about you like that, I couldn't help it."

Zhang Xueming replied angrily, what a layman with extra money, what a human blood mantou brother.

Looking at those emoticons, she was almost furious!

Would she not know what kind of person her husband is?

How wronged he felt when he was scolded, she couldn't understand...

Well, he won't feel aggrieved.

Zhang Xueming looked at her husband, who was handing him a spoon with a smile.

His emotions are missing a bit, not as rich in emotions. But just because of this, Zhang Xueming, as his wife, seemed to have taken over all the grievances and annoyances he should have had.

Originally, she was not such an emotional person.

But ever since she got married, or should I say... started caring about him, she could no longer face things as calmly as before.

Whenever Lu Zhengyi should be angry, happy, or aggrieved..., he himself behaves very calmly. Instead, as his wife, he is responsible for venting this emotion.

Why do they say that? He is obviously a victim too!

But at this moment, he will not be angry, cry, or feel aggrieved...

Zhang Xueming looked at her husband who was always smiling in front of her, feeling increasingly sad and her eyes could not help but turn red.

"How could they say that about you."

She couldn't help but speak.

Lu Zhengyi's smiling expression paused and looked at her blankly, looking like she was about to cry.

"No, I, you..."

He held back his words, unable to figure out why she looked like she was about to cry for a long time.

Did you just say something that you shouldn't have said?

Moreover, why was the look in her eyes a bit... pitiful?

Pitiful?

Ok?

He has seen others look at him with admiration, fear, and conviction... but he has almost never seen others look at him with pitiful eyes. If so, it was when he was still alive in his previous life.

Lu Zhengyi really didn't understand what was wrong with his wife.

It's not like they haven't experienced similar things before.

In the entertainment industry, whether you are an actor, director, screenwriter...

After a person becomes popular, he will face all kinds of public opinion disturbances. He has experienced a lot of them before, such as those who want to maliciously set the pace, provoke hatred against the rich, provoke war through fans, and moral kidnapping...

Every time we encounter this kind of thing, whether it is preparedness in advance or emergency public relations afterwards, Zhang Xueming and I handle it very well.

After the incident is over, she will still show herself as a proud figure of strategizing and winning a battle thousands of miles away.

She is very proud of her ability to work and is happy that she can solve problems.

And this time, Zhang Xueming solved the problem as always, calmly and competently.

Based on the current situation, the content has been removed from the hot searches on various platforms, and some of the media have contacted and wanted to keep it private. The part that compensated Zhang Yu’s family has also been provided. The problems have been solved one by one, but she……

"Hug, I'm sorry, I'm a little lost." Zhang Xueming also realized that she was a little emotional. She quickly lowered her head and took out a tissue. "I don't have much appetite, so I won't eat. You eat first."

With that said, she stood up and left.

Around him, many employees in the cafeteria quickly averted their eyes.

Ever since Lu Zhengyi finished filming, he would come over to have a meal every chance he got.

The employees at Guangying have also become accustomed to the two of them eating together in the cafeteria.

You may think it's strange the first or second time, but after seeing it a few times, you won't think it's anything. After all, they are just a couple, just having a meal, it's normal.

But habits are habits, and they will still pay more attention to it.

Lu Zhengyi watched her get up hurriedly without leaving.

He first took a few bites of rice, then asked the aunt who was serving food in the cafeteria for a thermos box, and put the soup rice in it.

Then he went upstairs and walked towards her office.

When she arrived at the office, Zhang Xueming was sitting behind her desk, wiping her tears with tissue paper.

"...Are you in a bad mood?" He walked into the house hesitantly and put the packed thermos box on the table. "You can't skip eating when you're in a bad mood. You've been working all afternoon, so you still need to eat something."

"Feeling……"

Zhang Xueming looked at him with tears in her eyes, "You were scolded, how could I be in a good mood?"

Her voice was a little muffled.

"But we have solved the problem, don't be sad." Lu Zhengyi came and sat down next to her, "And I'm not angry either. This kind of thing is nothing to me."

“Rather than being sad about the process, shouldn’t we be happy about the outcome?”

"We at Xueming solved such a troublesome public relations problem so easily. Many companies that specialize in traffic cannot do it, but you did it."

He coaxed, trying to cheer her up.

"But the process is the most important."

Seeing her husband, who was obviously the one involved, but comforted her in turn, Zhang Xueming felt even more uncomfortable, "You have encountered such things before, but I don't care if you were wronged in this process. I only care about whether the problem is solved and whether it will have a negative impact on our future career."

They have always been very honest with each other, and they won't hide anything they say.

"I only cared about the results at the time, but some things are not over after they are resolved." She held Lu Zhengyi's palm, "In this process, you have been hurt, no matter you have no emotions, but you I have indeed been hurt by these online abuses.”

“Those memes, those words, I care now, and I care.”

"Maybe the cyberbullying is directed at me, so I won't be angry. But if they target you, I will be very angry and sad."

Yes, Lu Zhengyi was always calm when faced with these public opinion turmoils online, without any sadness or anger.

And I didn't care about this either.

It never occurred to her that he should actually be sad or angry.

That is a real harm. How many people in this world can withstand cyber violence? How many people choose extreme methods because of these unwarranted abuses.

In fact, she always felt that he was very calm, calm and steady before.

But this time, she felt distressed. Even if the problem was solved, why should my husband be scolded like this?

"But if you are the target of cyber violence, I will be the one who should be angry." Lu Zhengyi let her hold his own hand with her two small hands, and replied helplessly, "This It’s up to me to bear the blame.”

Because of her straightforwardness, he understood the source of her emotions.

Indeed, I may not care about these things, but the people around me who care about me cannot just watch all this happen.

They feel sad and angry.

In fact, it's not just Zhang Xueming who has such emotions. Every time he gets involved in these things and gets dirty water thrown at him, people like Zhang Yuming, Xu Feng, Yu Li... in Mei Civet Cat's group chat will always... Speak for yourself and scold the media for yourself.

Of course, I, as the client, can always comfort them in turn.
