China Entertainment 2000

Crazy, crazy!

All fucking crazy!

Is it that the trend of the new century is changing so fast that they can't keep up, or is Warner Music going crazy with Zhou Yi?

Can this be said? !

The reporters, whose breathing became rapid, looked up at the young man on the stage who was focused under the camera. The old man looked at ease and showed no signs of hysteria. Even Warner General Manager Zhou Jianhui didn't say anything about it and just let Zhou Yi do what he did.

Is this still Warner?

"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing."

Seeing that no one of the reporters in the audience raised their hands to ask questions due to shock, Zhou Yi adjusted the position of the microphone on the table, leaned closer and added: "I have also noticed the public opinion in the past few days. Ultimately, this matter is because Chow Yun-fat himself spoke unabashedly.

"If Mr. Chow Yun-fat is still a man, then don't hide behind your fans and pretend to be innocent and let them help you charge into the battle against my fans.

"If you still have the guts, then stand up and confront me.

"I feel sorry for my fans who were scolded innocently. They did nothing. They were scolded by Chow Yun-fat's fans just because they were my fans. Then they fought back, but were belittled by a large number of media. .

"Is this fair? Isn't it Chow Yun-fat's fault in this matter?

"Many outside media said he apologized, but in fact he just issued an announcement. I never received an apology call from Chow Yun-fat personally from the beginning to the end. What kind of apology is this?"

Zhou Yi, who said such words in one breath, paused, glanced condescendingly at the media reporters in the audience, showed contempt, and sneered: "I'm done."

After saying that, Zhou Yi didn't stop too much. He stood up and walked down the main stage, ending this short but explosive press conference——

As a manager, Qian Jiang immediately waved to the security personnel to follow him, but he still had difficulty walking.

Reporters with their minds full of questions rushed one after another, almost putting the microphone in Zhou Yi's mouth, just to know what he thought.

It's a pity that the security personnel arranged by Warner this time were too elite. Even though they were squeezed hard, they still ensured that there was a clear distance between Zhou Yi and the reporters, leaving only a bunch of impatient shouts——

"Zhou Yi! Zhou Yi!! Zhou Yi!!!"

……………………………………………………

"Fuck! Who is he?! What is he?!"

Chow Yun-fat Company, Chow Yun-fat was exposed and smashed his favorite tea set in a rage. On the TV screen, Warner General Manager Zhou Jianhui was still making the final speech of the press conference after Zhou Yi left.

Thanks to Warner's work, this press conference was broadcast live in real time.

In other words, all the failed experiences of Chow Yun-fat in Hollywood were made public by Zhou Yi on 15th and 10th, and they were made public to all the viewers on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places who were watching this live TV broadcast.

This is undoubtedly fatal for Chow Yun-fat.

For the public who have difficulty accessing the achievements of European and American films, Double Monday has become a fixed star representative in their minds. In their minds, the name Chow Yun-fat represents the success of the film.

As a result, Zhou Yi now directly released a heavy hammer, smashing Chow Yun-fat's Hollywood filter into pieces.

"You still want me to come forward in person? Is he worthy? Even Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung dare not talk to me like that!"

Seeing his manager's wife bending down to sweep up the pieces of the tea set, the sullen expression on Chow Yun-fat's face softened a little.

"You are in the wrong for this matter. After all, you did not call Zhou Yi to apologize. The recording of the reporter from "Next Weekly" is there."

Chen Huilian calmly analyzed: "Warner just took a fancy to this point and dared to hold a press conference like this. We must not be led by the nose now.

"You can't come forward in person now because you can't get over this hurdle."

"I'm going to sue him, I'm going to sue him!"

"No, you won't win if you sue."

Seeing that her husband was getting angry and confused, Chen Huilian had no choice but to tell her: "He studies the Fa and is very smart. He didn't use those rumors or even some of the comments made by celebrities in the industry at the press conference." .

"He seemed crazy, but in fact he was very cautious in giving examples. The Hollywood movies you starred in that lost money, the things you did when you pressed the elevator in the past, and even what you said at the Academy Awards listed at the press conference are all supported by evidence. fact."

The ironclad evidence is here. Even if you ask the gods to come over, you won't be able to overturn the case. Any lawsuit will be lost.

"..."

Chow Yun-fat was choked and speechless and almost couldn't breathe.

Grass!

"But don't worry, your connections over the years are not in vain. I will try my best to muddy the water. What you have to do now is to stay silent as much as possible, hide behind the scenes and don't talk nonsense. Time will smooth everything out."

Chen Huilian thought for a while and quickly gave her husband some reassurance: "The Hong Kong Star Football Charity Match will be held on the 7th, and Xie Tingfeng will also participate. By then, his and Zhou Yi's performance on the court will become a new round of media attention. focus, and your heat will soon pass.”

Let Chow Yun-fat, who is at the forefront of the storm, remain silent and just let the fans charge for him, and then find a large number of media people and celebrities to say good things to Chow Yun-fat overtly and covertly, and reverse his image and reputation that was ruined by Zhou Yi at the Warner press conference.

Riding on the success of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" at the North American box office, this matter will soon go away, but Zhou Yi's personal image may be damaged in the end.

It is a social principle recognized by many middle-aged people that people are not sages and sages.

The only trouble is that Zhou Yi was born in the mainland.

But now Chen Huilian couldn't care so much. She was so mobile that she took the lead to contact Qiong Yao. As far as she knew, Zhou Yi secretly offended Qiong Yao in Taiwan last year.

As for Hong Kong, there are even more people to find.

The newspapers don't need to speak for Chow Yun-fat, just add a sentence of affirmation of Chow Yun-fat's past.

"I don't quite understand what happened, but I still understand Fa Zai. He is a very humble man. I think this young man named Zhou Yi may have some misunderstanding with Fa Zai.

"Young people are easily impulsive. I understand. Just let me know."

On the afternoon of August 1st, Qiong Yao and Qiong Yao's daughter-in-law, who were attending an event in Hong Kong, were asked about the matter by reporters from the hot-button media, who understated the right and wrong of the whole matter.

Qiong Yao's speech seemed to open a hole, and some Taiwanese celebrities who were close to Qiong Yao joined in to support her.

In Hong Kong, Anita Mui, Eric Tsang, Tony Leung, Anthony Wong, Tang Zhenye, Lin Xi and others ended up completely suppressing Zhou Yi's reputation in Hong Kong——

Anita Mui: "I'm not particularly paying attention to this matter. I've heard about it vaguely. I've been preparing for the charity football match these days. But based on my understanding of Fat Jai, there may be some misunderstanding about this matter."

Zeng Zhiwei, who was asked by reporters about his views on this incident, also cheerfully reconciled: "Zhou Yi may not have adapted to life in Hong Kong. Plus, he is young and has a straight temper. It's not a big deal. Everyone is. Artists value peace..."

Chow Yun-fat's connections in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong and Taiwan for more than 20 years are far beyond what Zhou Yi can match. Even Warner's own first brother Aaron Kwok and first sister Sammi Cheng remained neutral on this matter. At most, they spoke up for Zhou Yi. Two good words followed by a flurry of excuses to promote the movie and leave Hong Kong, a place of right and wrong.

The weakness of the rapidly rising Zhouyi, which has a shallow foundation in Hong Kong and Taiwan, is undoubtedly exposed at this moment.

Even though he is backed by Warner, Warner is not the only company in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Except for a few, most record companies, including Sony and PolyGram, applauded Zhou Yi when he saw that he was surrounded by public opinion because of his solo charge, and wished that Zhou Yi would be angry on the spot.

The market is so big, and Warner's strong comeback since last year, which has captured most of the market, has made many record companies hate it. Now that they are directly dealing with Zhou Yunfa, this gives them an opportunity to muddy the waters privately.

"Zhou Yi has gone too far. Movie audiences at Chow Yun-fat's peak can see it for all. He hasn't even made a name for himself in the European and American music circles, but he just wrote an English song and can he openly mock the seniors?"

"It wasn't a big deal in the first place. As a veteran, Chow Yun-fat issued an apology announcement. It's a bit unreasonable for Zhou Yi to be so aggressive."

"It's just that his eyes are higher than his head. He thinks that he is famous and his records are selling well, so he looks down on this and that. I think Chow Yun-fat's evaluation of him is very true. This kind of person will be beaten to death sooner or later without anyone to protect him."

"It's just a villain who succeeds. His father used to be a painter. When he was a child, he didn't have any rich life. He lived a miserable and dirty life. Now that life has become rich all of a sudden, his brain that was damaged by paint has short-circuited... "

As time goes by, Warner, who is hard-pressed with two fists and four hands, will not be able to suppress Zhou Yi one-sidedly, but it is also difficult to match the "strangling" of Zhou Yi by several major record companies and Chow Yun-fat's social circle.

On the contrary, those fans who were moved by Zhou Yi's speech at the press conference became more united under this situation, and started fighting people in various places every day like a "holy war".

Today I call Chow Yun-fat a garbage man, and tomorrow I call Aaron Kwok Fucheng irresponsible. What stands out is that one person is worth ten.

"Other people's celebrities let their fans fight, and they hide behind the scenes and collect money from everyone. Zhou Yi jumped out and fought with Chow Yun-fat so that we wouldn't be wronged. This is a qualified idol!"

Even though they were at a disadvantage, Zhou Yi's fans never felt emotionally depressed. Instead, they felt that Zhou Yi was with them.

Zhou Yi, the main character, has taken the lead. Why are these fans still standing there? !

Follow the charge!

Facts have proved that the motivational effects of the two sentences "charge me" and "charge with me" are completely different.

What's more, Zhou Yi is not without help.

As one of the twin stars, Stefanie Sun, of course, needless to say, Elva Hsiao and Angela Chang are still on the front line of support. But what Zhou Yi didn't expect was that Fan Bingbin, Lu Yi, and Zhou Xun all expressed their support for him in public.

As for others, such as Liu Tao, who is slightly famous for participating in the MV of Zhouyi's hit song "Jiangnan", and Chen Hao, who was in the crew of "Pink Girl", they were directly ignored because they were too little famous.

"I understand the truth, what's going on with Lu Yi?"

Contrary to outside speculation, Zhou Yi, who was not affected by any pressure at all, remained as stable as an old dog. Instead, he curiously asked Qian Jiang about the situation of the two men.

"According to my understanding, Lu Yi happened to join you in the charge just because he couldn't stand the discrimination in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Anyway, his reputation in the mainland is also booming."

Since the beginning of public opinion, he has been worried about Zhou Yi's mental state. In the end, Qian Jiang almost got himself stunned and scratched his head: "However, as far as I know, Lu Yi was scolded when he went back."

Lu Yi was scolded when he went back, but it was okay...

"Forget it, how is the song?" Zhou Yi asked about the song in his mind.

Qian Jiang's spirit was immediately shaken: "Ready."

Because of this scolding war, Zhou Yi directly changed the content of the MV for "Stubborn" into live footage, which is equivalent to directly carving people into the pillar of shame.

Zhou Jianhui also specially hired a special actor who had been a stand-in for Chow Yun-fat several times to play the role of the person who manipulated public opinion to suppress Zhou Yi in the MV.

Don't ask why he came, just ask that Warner has used his money power.

"Didn't the organizer cancel the invitation to the charity football match on August 7?" Zhou Yi, who took the schedule from Qian Jiang's hand, raised his eyebrows playfully.

He's made such a big fuss, but he's still playing football?

Don't go on the field and directly turn into kicking someone.

"They don't dare, the tickets have been sold. What's more, no one can openly accuse you of this matter. Chow Yun-fat is in the wrong. The most others can say is that you are young and energetic."

Qian Jiang curled his lips disdainfully: "There are also several record companies that are trying to use psychological warfare to defeat you. I really think Zhou Jianhui is a vegetarian and can't be found out."

"It's completely unnecessary to want me to have a psychological breakdown."

Zhou Yi glanced at the list of participants for the charity football match on the document. Zeng Zhiwei, Tang Zhenye, Miao Qiaowei and others were clearly on the list. The cheerleaders headed by Anita Mui were also on the list: "Uncle Qian, I will kick them to pieces and collapse on the field. There will be a fight."

"...Probably, no."

Qian Jiang answered with some hesitation: "However, in a friendly match, you'd better not play in the final match."

Zhou Yi hummed a tune happily: "I'll try my best."

On August 2, just as the outside world was making a noise, Warner officially sent the single "Stubborn" from Zhou Yi's Graduation EP to the charts——

"This is Zhou Yi's graduation gift to himself and to his fans.

"I hope that everyone can soar and live a good life in the new century, especially those who have just graduated. I hope that everyone will experience less setbacks and hardships.

"Of course, it's better not to suffer setbacks."

This is what Zhou Yi personally wrote on the inner page of the EP, and it is also Warner's official slogan.

Combined with the fact that Zhou Yi has been jointly attacked in public opinion recently, these three sentences actually made many people frown——

If it's broken, it won't become material, right?

As for fans of Zhouyi, after learning the news from Warner's official announcement, they were all ecstatic.

Due to the particularity of the current situation, the moment Zhou Yi's new song was sent to the radio, the data began to skyrocket. The highly contagious lyrics paired with the restless pop-rock drumbeats almost instantly made everyone who heard the song feel Zhou Yi's "repressed" emotions and stubbornness under heavy pressure——

"Of course, I am different from the world

"That makes me different

"Persistence to me means using strength to overcome strength."

Zhou Yi's deliberately low-pitched singing voice attracted everyone who heard the song.

It’s hard not to think of lyrics that remind people of reality, but they are full of a sense of empathy. The whole song is filled with an inspiring flavor——

"The direction against the wind is more suitable for flying

"I'm not afraid of millions of people blocking me, I'm just afraid of surrendering myself!"

As Zhou Yi's singing gradually became louder, a special actor whose name did not appear at all in the simple MV, but who was somewhat similar to Chow Yun-fat, appeared immediately, sitting on a trumpet-shaped throne and laughing wildly, surrounded by many followers. Someone he laughs with.

There is obviously no Chow Yun-fat, but Chow Yun-fat's shadow is everywhere.

Even because the requirements for EP shooting are not high, Warner also added a lot of burning newspapers - they were newspapers bought in reality, and they formed a circle around Zhou Yi, with blazing fire.

Zhou Yi, wearing a white T-shirt and jeans, walked among mountains of swords and seas of fire, his eyes filled with perseverance. While singing loudly, the explosive drum beats exploded in the eyes of the audience along with sparks!

"My proud stubbornness and I will hold our hands tightly and never let go.

"The next stop, is it heaven?"

"Even if you are disappointed, don't despair!"

Faced with the joint efforts of several major record companies to add insult to injury, Zhou Yi expressed his attitude with the most accurate singing voice after the press conference, which was deafening!

Watching Zhou Yi start a team with Chow Yun-fat alone and following him to accompany him to fight the heroes, at this moment, they can't wait to get up and go offline to fight Mortal Kombat with others, and they can vaguely see a blazing fire deep in their hearts!

Damn you! It's on fire!

Chow Yun-fat, right? Eric Tsang, right? Polygram, right? Sony, right?

Who else, you all come together!

Who is the grandson who is cowardly? ! !

Since being sent to major radio stations for charting on the morning of the 2nd, thanks to Zhouyi, a unique event in the entertainment industry, "Stubborn", which has never been treated to the top in its previous life, has directly smashed the cross-strait and three places in just two days. A great master all the way, with his unparalleled appearance, he has become the battle song among Zhou Yi's die-hard fans and Zhou Yi's fan groups, reaching the top of the list!

The gaining momentum of "Meteor Garden" failed to stand in the way, and even Zhou Yi's own "Jiangnan" was unable to resist.

Although it only topped the list for two short days, its achievement of reaching the top of the radio charts in the three places across the Taiwan Strait on August 4th directly created the history of the Chinese music scene!

Chow Yun-fat's face turned green.

Although he doesn't sing, it doesn't mean he doesn't understand singing.

What's more, isn't he the nameless person in the MV for "Stubborn" who represents the opposite meaning?

Does Warner think he is blind? !

With the influence of the lyrics of "Stubborn" that are too in line with the real situation, based on Zhouyi's fame, once the lyrics of this song were released, they were directly criticized in various ways by various media that did not take it too seriously to watch the excitement. interpretation.

But without exception, they were unable to criticize the lyrics of the song.

There is no romance, and there is no hip-hop element that many people disliked in Zhouyi's past. The content is positive, full of encouragement and hope.

"It's hard to imagine how much psychological pressure Zhou Yi suffered during this period. According to my analysis, it is very likely that he added the song temporarily or changed the lyrics because of this incident.

“But even in this situation, Zhou Yi still did not give up his perseverance.

"Chow Yun-fat has indeed gone too far in this matter. He is a senior, but he bullies the younger ones..."

As soon as the song "Stubborn" came out on Peking University's BBS, it immediately became a forum for Zhouyi fans and Zhengyi passers-by to talk about it.

In any case, the appeal of a song is stronger than that of a simple chat.

“To be fair, the lyrics of this song are not particularly good when viewed in plain view, but when spoken in a straightforward manner, one can feel the power and emotion that this song expresses.

"I have heard of discrimination against mainland artists in the Hong Kong entertainment industry before. It is hard to imagine whether Zhou Yi suffered any injustice in Hong Kong. He has just graduated from university..."

Judging from the lyrics alone, the image of Zhou Yi, who is burdened with countless grievances, immediately pops up on the page.

Not to mention Zhou Yi's sensitive mainland identity.

Since Hong Kong circles began to move north, the friction between the mainland entertainment circles and the Hong Kong entertainment circles has become increasingly intensified. Usually, mainland artists choose to swallow their anger and give in, even big names such as Jet Li, Yu Rongguang and others are no exception.

But this time it was different.

"The young and energetic Zhou Yi shreds the tiger's skin with his singing. He is only 20 years old in December this year, while Chow Yun-fat is 46 years old. An adult secretly discriminates against a child who has just graduated, and wants to use his own power to put him Press it down..."

In addition to the die-hard fans of Zhouyi, college students led by Peking University BBS and other university forums were the first to be filled with indignation.

Never doubt the ability of normal college students in this era. All kinds of dirty information about Chow Yun-fat, and even the people who have spoken to him and had sex with him, have been uncovered.

"Fortunately, I quite like watching "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", but the co-writer is such a horny and soft-hearted person, ah!"

"The strong draw their swords at the stronger, the weak draw their swords at the weaker, and that's what happened to Chow Yun-fat."

"..."

Thanks to his influence among young people, young people from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places have quickly exchanged their views on Chow Yun-fat with the help of the new era media of the Internet.

The song "Stubborn" spreads at a speed that is unimaginable to ordinary people, far exceeding the speed of traditional media.

Of course, what was also spread was Chow Yun-fat's gradually collapsing reputation.

On August 7, when Zhou Yi was already on his way to the charity football match, Chow Yun-fat received a few bolts from the blue——

"Several mainland agents who were under negotiation withdrew their contracts, and the investors of two movies that were under negotiation also found reasons to put them on hold for the time being."

The words of his wife Chen Huilian made Chow Yun-fat look extremely embarrassed: "Also, Jackie Chan and Jet Li in the United States were also asked about this matter during interviews. They did not shy away and chose to stand on Zhou Yi's side to speak for him.

"In addition, people from the older generation of entertainment circles such as Chen Daoming from the Mainland seem to be planning to use the Zhouyi incident to attack the Hong Kong entertainment industry."

Grass!

Will I, Chow Yun-fat, become a sinner in the Hong Kong entertainment industry? !

6k!

1k more than yesterday!

I'm so strong!
