This director needs to apologize

Chapter 205 As you wish, move forward with a heavy load

Under normal circumstances, Chen Yiming will not speak out loudly, and even if he refuses, he will be more tactful.

In his previous life, he worked as a tool director for many years. He is very good at self-persuasion and has never been an easy person.

He has personally experienced the era of big data, and has seen the storm of public opinion caused by the combination of fanatical fans and marketing accounts. Even dumb people are guilty of their words, and blind people are still offended.

However, it is precisely because he has lived once that Chen Yiming has some foresight and knows which people are best to stay away from and which people are best to fight back.

In common sense, the entertainment industry and the fashion industry seem to be very close to each other. Otherwise, fans of top female celebrities would not regard the number of magazine covers they collect every day as an achievement.

But if they are people behind the scenes in the entertainment industry, or orthodox actors who do not expect high-end endorsements to establish their style, then the so-called fashion people do not need to care at all, and even if they are offended, they will be offended, and there will be no negative impact.

Just like real estate developers don't care about the opinions of decoration companies, although the latter are very helpful in increasing the added value of finely decorated houses.

In fact, fashion and entertainment are essentially opposite. One is for the elite and the other is for the masses. They are two natural directions.

The former is a hydrogen-filled balloon. If you don't hold on to the rope, it will keep floating upward until it can no longer withstand the external pressure and explode into fireworks.

The latter is an air-filled balloon. If you hold it up, it can float in the air for a while. If you don't hold it up, it will fall to the ground immediately.

When the whole society is moving up, the strong wind can take advantage of it, and the two can get closer and have a harmonious relationship.

When the economic downturn is counter-cyclical, there is no wind to borrow from, and the air balloon extinguishes the desire to make progress, and the two will immediately become distinct from each other.

As a behind-the-scenes director, Chen Yiming's biggest fear is to lose touch with the audience and stay away from fashion.

For the angry fashion lady in the audience, the best way to deal with it is to directly express your position that you are not a stranger.

Because fashion people are very proud and pay attention to their appearance. Both men and women have a swan's neck. Once they get used to it, they can't lower their heads.

This means that a gentleman can be deceived. If there are any dinner parties, charities, visits, salons, etc. in the future, Chen Yiming can ignore them all and put up a brand that is insulated from fashion, once and for all.

The reporters below were a little confused. Editor Su was very well-versed in the entertainment industry and could be said to be a good dancer.

What's going on now, that Chen Yiming pushed him back?

It's just an invitation for an interview, isn't it normal? Does it touch on Director Chen's taboo?

In this weird atmosphere, reporters who asked subsequent questions inevitably withdrew their attention and swallowed back all the provocative questions.

In addition, the three actors Yu Nan, Gu Yuehe, and Hang Xiaoming are actually big names with their own traffic, which also diverted the firepower of many reporters, which was in response to Chen Yiming's foresight in calling the three of them to accompany him.

Of course, among reporters, there is always a shortage of brave men who want to make big news.

The microphone was passed to the fourth row, and the reporter who stood up was a fat man with a round head and a round face, who claimed to be an entertainment reporter from the "Didu Newspaper".

"Director Chen, there is news that you got married secretly in Nuts in the first half of the year, and then honeymooned in many cities around the world. Can you confirm it?"

Chen Yiming said with both laughter and laughter, "I am a director, not a star. Do I need to hide my marriage? If you didn't hear it just now, then I will repeat it again. I am a man, I like women, I am unmarried, and I don't have a girlfriend."

The fat reporter continued, "But according to reliable information, you have a girlfriend. If she knows that you claim to have no girlfriend in public, she doesn't know how to feel."

The fat man's first question only elicited a few sporadic sneers, and obviously the reporters present didn't believe it either.

But when he said the second sentence, the discussion at the scene became louder. He said it with full sincerity. Chen Yiming has never appeared in public for more than half a year. It is indeed reasonable for him to go abroad and live in a world of two.

Chen Yiming put away his smile and took a deep look at the fat man, who grinned back, showing that he was confident.

"I guess you won't tell me the source of the news, so I won't ask.    Okay, let me modify my self-introduction. I am Chen Yiming, male, I like women, and I am unmarried.

I wonder if this reporter is satisfied? "

The fat man reacted quickly and continued to ask, "Director Chen, don't you think you are deceiving the public by deliberately concealing the facts?"

Chen Yiming shrugged, "I have tried to be as rigorous as possible with the facts. The outside world knows that Fu Ruixiang is my female friend, so my saying that I don't have a girlfriend is indeed misleading the public, although I think the real public is probably not interested in this. .

If you say that I have a secret marriage, then I would like to solemnly remind you that, given that I have denied it, if you report it publicly without evidence, you will be suspected of defamation. "

The fat man's originally confident face cracked for a moment, and he said in a stern voice, "The public has the right to know, and I will find out the truth for them. Director Chen, you should also think more about that poor girl."

Chen Yiming smiled and nodded, "Okay, thank you for your kind reminder. As you wish, I will think about her every night before going to bed."

Amidst bursts of low laughter, the fat reporter sat down again while maintaining his grace. Chen Yiming looked at him with a high look. He had a good psychological quality and was a troublemaker who could get on the stage.

Chen Yiming always felt that there should be Fatty's partner behind him. Unexpectedly, when the microphone was passed to the end, no reporter jumped out to cooperate with Fatty, which made Chen Yiming feel a little depressed as if he was charging up a big move to hit the air.

If he had taken action by himself, he should have arranged for two more companions. After the fat man provoked him head-on, he would feint from the side and attack from behind. He didn't expect to come up with anything powerful, but the main one was to make people angry and make them lose their temper.

The whole process of the goal was calm and cool, and his expression didn't even change. How could he look at the pictures, talk, and write a short composition?

But think about it again, it’s only 2011, the fandom is still in a barbaric era, professional trolls are still showing off, and black people’s tricks haven’t been developed much.

The people here today are not the unscrupulous self-media of later generations, but well-organized and serious reporters. The real person spreading rumors is no more expensive than online rumors, and the cost is indeed a bit high.

In fact, although the reporters behind him didn't stare at his lower third position, they asked quite exciting questions.

For example, a reporter from the Movie Channel said that since the fourth quarter of last year, domestic online ticket booking platforms have blossomed all over the country. Under fierce competition, a lot of chaos has inevitably arisen. They asked Chen Yiming, the instigator, what he thought of this.

Chen Yiming can't say that he has seen the answer. Where he is now, there will only be more chaos in the future. It will not be until the boss and the second boss on the track squeeze out the three, four, five and six that he can get back on track to raise the ticket price and cut leeks.

He didn't want to create a magical persona, so he answered vaguely that embracing the Internet is a social trend, and the same is true for the film industry. Judging from the actual results, box office growth is increasing, ticket prices are decreasing, and the number of moviegoers is accelerating, which is good after all.

There was also a reporter from People Weekly who asked Chen Yiming what he thought about the influx of Chinese film and television dramas into the country to make money.

What can Chen Yiming think? That is a matter for the theater industry. What does it have to do with him as a film director?

He could only talk about poisonous chicken soup that can kill jade with stones from other mountains. Everyone who asked questions knew that he was talking nonsense, but the reporter had to ask.

Because the cultural invasion of Bangziliu is a hot topic, Chen Yiming, a director who has not been seen for a long time, is also a hot topic. It is only when the two hot topics are brought together that it becomes explosive.

According to Chen Yiming's true feelings, the truth is that domestic counterparts are not doing their best, and idol dramas are not being filmed well, forcing boys and girls to become fans.

In the past life, the film industry had a twists and turns for the better. Unlike the drama circle, as the video platform completed the market segmentation, under the control of capital, it followed the downward curve of traffic + big data and never looked back.

He even feels that the TV station’s anti-Japanese mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dramas and the platform’s IP idol dramas are actually carrying the burden for the entire cultural industry, because they carry the function of emotional trash cans.

Just like a fried chicken burger, it requires a lot of oil, salt and calories to get the right flavor.

There is no merit in discussing this kind of problem, because the people who express opinions, the people who do the practical work, and the people who receive services are completely separated from each other.

It's also to blame that Chen Yiming didn't start the press conference well. From the beginning, he kept this secret temporarily and couldn't comment on that, leaving reporters with no questions about "Mulan".

It is said to be a press conference for "Mulan", but the content has little to do with "Mulan". It is more like Chen Yiming's solo media briefing. The main purpose is to chat with the reporters.
