ps: Thank you book friend "Xiao Jushi" for your continuous rewards! !

"The box office champion on the first day - 150 million!"

"Don't Talk to Strangers" became the highest-grossing movie on the first day of 2002!"

""Don't Talk to Strangers" earned 150 million yuan a day, and the box office will break through [-] million yuan just around the corner!"

"Lin Zhimo's debut film became a big money-sucker, earning 150 million on the first day of screening!"

……

The next day, countless media focused their attention on Lin Zhimo and his "Don't Talk to Strangers". After all, the box office of 150 million yuan on the first day can be said to have broken a series of records. Except for top-tier directors, no one dares to say that they can definitely achieve this step on the first day of their film.

Compared with the fiery reports on the paper media, the online media has even more mixed reactions to this, with some supporting it, some opposing it, those who have nothing to do with it, and some who are fishing in troubled waters.

"Boss is mighty! Try to break through 1000 million movie box office as soon as possible!" netizen "Happy Snowflake" wrote in a post on the entertainment section of Tianya Forum.

"Haha, those who oppose it now have seen it? Do you know what a genius is? Our boss is first-class in everything he does! Acting is an international best actor, singing is the best-selling champion, and the director is also the top!" Netizen "The River Flows North" proudly Said lazily.

"On the top floor, the boss is constantly slapping his face. Every time new box office data comes out, those people's faces are swollen." Netizen "Peter Pan" is also a master of schadenfreude.

"The two upstairs are right, I'll look for it now. Find out all the newspapers where those people criticized the boss, and post them online for everyone to read!"

"Yes, take them all out, we're going to flog the corpses!"

"I like the term whipping corpses, and I'll go and get out the newspapers I collected before!"

……

The speed of netizens is very fast. In less than half an hour, they took photos of all the newspapers from those media when Lin Zhimo first started filming and posted them on the Internet.

It doesn't matter if this shot is made, everyone is pissed off by these reporters.

I saw a media report when they first found out that Lin Zhimo was going to make a movie: "There must be something wrong with Lin Zhimo's brain, otherwise why would he make the decision to make a movie? He thought that making a movie It’s as fun as playing house, without professional knowledge and a lot of practice. How can you make a good movie?”

Later, he seemed to feel that this was not enough, so he posted another report: "Everyone admits that Lin Zhimo is really talented. Whether it is singing or acting, he is a top entertainer, but filming is completely different from these two professions. Try it How many people in the world dare to pick up a video camera in their twenties?"

Even when Lin Zhimo led the crowd to Berlin to participate in the film festival, the media kept blaming Lin Zhimo: "We tell Lin Zhimo out of honesty. Foreign countries are dangerous. Berlin is very cold. Be mentally prepared! "

As a result, within a few days, the news that Lin Zhimo's movie won the Best Actress Award was sent back to China. The criticism of Lin Zhimo from the media suddenly disappeared, and their reports turned 180 degrees. Turning: "Lin Zhimo deserves to be the leader of the sixth generation of directors in my country. In his debut work, Gong Li, who has participated in it for many years but has not won an award, was crowned the queen of the actress. This is a good proof of Lin Zhimo's excellent director ability The cold Berlin is as warm as spring to Lin Zhimo.”

After the first-day box office of "Don't Talk to Strangers" came out yesterday, the newspaper even praised Lin Zhimo as a great director that is rare in the sky and unparalleled in the earth: "Lin Zhimo won the first-day box office by virtue of his reputation as the first-day box office champion. We can erect a monument of our own in the history of Chinese film, and we have every reason to expect Lin Zhimo to make great achievements on this basis and climb a higher mountain, let us bless him!"

When some netizens put several reports of this newspaper back and forth together, everyone couldn't laugh or cry. Although with the development of technology, people no longer believe what the so-called "uncrowned king" said. Such unintentional follow-the-trend reporting by this media outlet still leaves people at a loss as to what to say.

Everyone has underestimated the lower limit of those media as much as possible, but unexpectedly, they overestimated a lot in the end. Facing such a wonderful media, everyone has no choice but to retreat.

Lin Zhimo also saw this report, and took it as a joke and wrote it on his blog, so fans who had been following Lin Zhimo's blog updates immediately knew about it, and they didn't know about it afterwards. I know who wrote a couplet specially for this newspaper-"Once you enter your newspaper, it is as deep as the sea, and you will be a passerby from now on."

As a result, this media has become completely famous. It was originally just a gossip newspaper in a small city, but after being fermented by the Internet, it became a nationally famous newspaper in an instant. However, this kind of fame may not be what they hoped for.

Time passed, and soon the box office of "Don't Talk to Strangers" came out on the second day, and the box office dropped slightly, 145 million!

130 million on the third day!

……

A week later, the total box office of "Don't Talk to Strangers" has reached 800 million. There is absolutely no problem breaking through 1000 million. It depends on whether it can reach the goal of 2000 million in the future.

Eleven days after its release, the total box office of "Don't Talk to Strangers" officially exceeded 1000 million yuan.

Lin Zhimo also took the opportunity to hold a small celebration party. After all, it has created a miracle for a literary film to break through 1000 million. This matter is just like what the unscrupulous media said. , In the history of Chinese film, Lin Zhimo's name will definitely be remembered by future generations.

Then, when Lin Zhimo was about to send the film to the Yanjing College Student Film Festival, he received a call from Huo Xiwen.

"What, you mean a call from the Ganzhou Municipal Government?" Lin Zhimo asked in surprise.

"Yes, the provincial capital of your hometown intends to invite you to be the city's image ambassador for your hometown." As Huo Xiwen stayed in the mainland for a longer period of time, her understanding of the officialdom in mainland China became deeper and deeper.She was also surprised that Ganzhou City invited Lin Zhimo as its image ambassador.

There were no Chinese city image ambassadors before, but generally speaking, they were either appointed by the municipal government itself, or selected a local cultural celebrity, such as a writer, painter, calligrapher and other elegant art representatives.There has never been a star in the entertainment industry who has become an image ambassador for a city before, not even a small second- and third-tier city!

The reason is very simple. Up to now, the image of stars in the entertainment industry is naturally good for the general public, but since ancient times, Chinese people have often called them "actors", and the meaning of contempt is self-evident. "Bitch is ruthless, actor is ruthless."This is the same situation now; another reason is that there are too many right and wrong among these stars in the entertainment circle.Who knows if some scandal will break out one day, it will affect the city he speaks for.

To sum up, when a city chooses a spokesperson, it would rather choose a painter and writer who is unfamiliar to the general public.I am also unwilling to choose these entertainment stars that the public is familiar with.

That's why Lin Zhimo and Huo Xiwen were surprised by this.But this matter is of great benefit to Lin Zhimo.Not to mention still representing his hometown, so Lin Zhimo agreed to the invitation from Ganzhou City after thinking for a while.

Of course, what Lin Zhimo didn't know was that Ganzhou City made this decision for Zeng Mengquan's sake.The mayor of Ganzhou City belongs to the Zeng family, so he is naturally well aware of the changes in their Zeng family.Originally, he hadn't made up his mind on whether to invite Lin Zhimo. After all, Lin Zhimo's reputation is too great now, and the so-called celebrity is so popular. Who knows if there will be a scandal about Lin Zhimo after a while.

But after the upsurge of "Don't Talk to Strangers", the mayor felt that it might be worth a try. The reason is very simple, because Lin Zhimo is Zeng Mengquan's nephew.

What the mayor was worried about before was that if Lin Zhimo had negative news in the future, he, the mayor who proposed Lin Zhimo as an image ambassador, would be involved, and his boss would be dissatisfied.But then he thought about it. As an official of his level, if he wants to continue to climb a step, he must have a backer, and his backer is undoubtedly the Zeng family.

I chose Lin Zhimo as the city's image ambassador, which is naturally a way to please the Zeng family. No matter whether Lin Zhimo's reputation is good or bad, the Zeng family must remember this intention.Moreover, the mayor also felt in his heart that with Zeng Mengquan's status as the deputy head of the Propaganda Department, he would never allow negative news about Lin Zhimo to spread too widely, and he could be said to be invincible.

Coupled with the fact that the central government is vigorously promoting the slogan of emancipating the mind and liberating vitality, my current behavior can be regarded as liberation in a certain sense.

On the contrary, if Lin Zhimo, a person in the entertainment industry with a good reputation, really develops according to the current momentum, it is not impossible to become a big star in the world in the future, and then the mayor of himself will be both famous and famous It's profitable, this kind of business that wins but never loses is not done in vain.

Lin Zhimo naturally didn't know the origin of his image ambassador, he just felt that it was a supreme honor for him.

The Three-Character Classic says it well, "Promote your reputation and show your parents; light up the front and enrich the back".

For every Chinese, I am afraid that in their bones they want to do a career of honoring their ancestors, and now, Lin Zhimo has become the spokesperson of his hometown, which is undoubtedly a glorious thing worthy of special mention.

And when Lin Zhimo told his family about this, as Lin Zhimo expected, everyone was very excited about this, even the grandfather who walked off the battlefield was very pleased about it.

A week later, Lin Zhimo returned to Ganzhou accompanied by his family, and the next day he held a formal media conference with the municipal government, announcing that Lin Zhimo had become the image ambassador of Ganzhou City, the provincial capital of Northwest Province!

Shock!

All the reporters who participated in the press conference were extremely surprised and puzzled by Ganzhou's behavior.

This is the image spokesperson of a city. No matter how famous Lin Zhimo is now, he is not worthy of Ganzhou City's attention to him. They are not afraid that Lin Zhimo will be involved in scandals in the future?

But no matter what they think, the matter is a foregone conclusion, and they can't change it if they want to.

Of course, Ganzhou City has also left behind for this, that is, Lin Zhimo, the image ambassador, has a time limit. If there is no negative news about Lin Zhimo after two years, then the image ambassador will naturally be him.But if Lin Zhimo gets negative news after two years, then Ganzhou City has the right to choose another person to be the spokesperson.

Lin Zhimo naturally knew Ganzhou City's concerns, so he had no opinion on it, and he felt that even if he continued to be the image spokesperson in two years, it wouldn't be long.After all, the officialdom in China changes frequently. Who knows if the next leader of Ganzhou City will continue to let him serve as this ambassador?Maybe the next leader doesn't like the stars in the entertainment industry?

Anyway, the initiative is all in the hands of Ganzhou City, all Lin Zhimo can do is to shoot his own city promotional video.

But despite this, Lin Zhimo still felt that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

"Sister Wen, is there a lot of money in our company's account?" Lin Zhimo called Huo Xiwen.

"There are more than 2000 million, what's the matter?"

"I want to do something for my hometown." Lin Zhimo didn't hide anything, and directly expressed his thoughts.

"For charity?" Huo Xiwen asked after a moment of pondering: "Then do I need to invite some media?"

"No, no, no, I don't intend to publicize this matter." Lin Zhimo quickly refused. Just becoming an image ambassador and doing charity immediately will be misunderstood as a show, which is not a good thing for Ganzhou City and Lin Zhimo good thing.

In fact, the idea of ​​charity was born when he was asked by his grandfather to build bridges and pave roads in the village, but he has been waiting until now because of various things. (To be continued..)
