Reborn Millennial Gamer

Chapter 482 Why is it all aimed at me (5k Happy New Year!)

On July 12, the Shanghai stock market.

Hu Ge, who is engaged in the production of media sound effects, got off work in a hurry and didn't even bother to eat dinner. He and his colleagues rushed from the studio to a nearby movie theater just to catch the premiere of "The Promise".

I casually bought some popcorn, sugar-fried chestnuts, and Coke, and impatiently walked into the movie hall. At this time, there were no empty seats.

These days, to be able to attract audiences in an environment where pirated DVDs are everywhere and online resources are plentiful, either has a big cast, or a big director, or both.

What's more, Liu Yan's question and Chen Kai's anger directly raised the topic and attention of "The Promise" to a new level, just like bad movies always have weird ones who want to see how bad they are, and some people want to see , Brother Chen Kai keeps saying how good his "son" is.

"Hey, Hu, there has been a lot of noise on the Internet recently, do you think "The Promise" will really be Waterloo?"

Colleagues peeled and fried chestnuts and ate them to fill their stomachs.

Hu Ge took two sips of Coke, "Probably not, this is a masterpiece that Director Chen has honed his sword for three years. It has invested 3.5 million yuan and invited so many actors from China, Japan, Korea and Hong Kong. Again, it is at least "House of Flying Daggers" s level."

"I hope it can be worthy of our ticket price."

The colleague noticed that the lights in the bright theater were turned off and gradually plunged into darkness, so he subconsciously lowered his voice.

"It's definitely not a problem. This is director Chen who filmed "Farewell My Concubine"!"

Holding great expectations, Hu Ge saw the golden dragon logo flashing on the screen, and then entered the feature film, and saw the hungry Xiao Qingcheng offended Xiao Wuhuan at the beginning for a steamed bun.

Immediately afterwards, the fluttering and celestial Man Shen appeared on the stage.

Seeing Chen Hong's long hair floating upwards against the gravity of the earth, forcing her to hold Newton's coffin board, she couldn't help but feel a little bit ominous, what do Chinese gods look like?
The scene changed, and it flashed to the Horseshoe Valley battlefield 20 years later. On the top of the hillside, 3000 soldiers holding mosaic shields, long-handled machetes, and wearing crimson helmets and soft armor lined up.

"Fuck, is this our ancient armor?"

The colleague blurted out: "It's so fancy, and that general is called 'Guangming'. Is there such a name?"

"Ahem, maybe this is ancient costume magic."

Hu Ge made up for Fuhuadao, who was dressed like a Roman soldier, but when he saw thousands of yaks running wildly in the canyon and running over the fleeing slaves, a man named "Kunlun" suddenly evolved from four feet to two feet. Running, the corners of his mouth kept twitching.

I meditate in my heart, ancient costumes are magical, ancient costumes are magical...

However, just when he thought it was outrageous, an even more outrageous scene soon appeared. A palace that looked like a mosquito coil came into his eyes, and his face slowly darkened.

"Would any of you want to see what I'm wearing under my cloak?"

Seeing Qingcheng say this to the millions of soldiers who forced the palace, Hu Ge couldn't hold back his whole face, stroked his forehead and shook his head.

What the hell is this?

I thought that the opening 30 minutes of "The Promise" was disappointing beyond imagination. Expectations fell to the bottom, and I can make progress no matter what, but Chen Kai laughed:
Grandpa can make holes!

Just like the animated version of "Three-Body Problem", the first two episodes were full of defenses, but what I never expected was a pile of cesspit after that, nothing but shit, it's still shit!
"You will never get true love, and even if you get it, you will lose it immediately!"

"You made me stop trusting anyone in the world, you ruined my chance to be a good person."

"..."

"Qingcheng, I want to take you back, and I want you to know that fate can be changed."

For more than 100 minutes, there was no sound in the theater, and there was a strange embarrassment in the air. Hu Ge felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles among the crowd, feeling like being in prison.

"It's all about what, what, what!"

"Fuck, what is this movie about?"

"nmd, why did the leading role find a stick man, a neon man, who speaks mandarin like a ghost, and smells like a devil! Crazy!"

"........."

There was no applause, no standing ovation, there was only anger at the premiere, and some audience members even raised their arms and shouted:

"I bought high-priced tickets from scalpers on purpose, and ended up selling them like this? Brother Chen Kai, are you worthy of us?"

"rnm, refund the money!"

"Yes, refund the money!"

Hu Ge and the others were also infected by the anger around them, and they were so angry that they not only cursed in the theater, but also walked back out of the theater, and the two kept cursing along the way.

Even when I got home and sat in front of the computer, no matter how long it had passed, I was still suffocating, and I was hungry and had to spend money, so I was fed more than an hour of defense?
"Damn, I can't swallow this breath!"

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he made up his mind to make a spoof of "The Promise" to vent his anger. Immediately, he had a flash of inspiration, and the most impressive picture appeared in his mind——

The bloody steamed bun at the beginning of the film.

He typed a line of words on the document like a ghost, and the title was "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun".

Afterwards, apart from commuting to and from get off work, I spent almost all my time, not only intercepting various clips of "The Promise", but also editing the story in the form of Yang Ma's "China Rule of Law Report"——

"On a certain day in 2005, a bizarre murder occurred in a certain city. A masked knight killed Wang, the general manager of Yuanhuansuuhuanhuan Entertainment City in broad daylight and under the eyes of everyone. This is the place where the crime occurred. Due to its remote location and sparsely populated...

Ten days later, "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bread" appeared on various video sites such as Penguin Video, LeTV, Tudou, and 10.com. Within a day, or even half a day, the parody video quickly became popular, and the number of visits was sporadic. Crushing adds up to over a million times.

The number of downloads even exceeds that of "The Promise" which is currently being screened.

For a while, Hu Ge and "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun" became popular all over the Internet, and it was spread, and it was hard for the news not to reach Brother Chen Kai's studio.

"I've never seen such a brazen person!"

Brother Chen Kai angrily smashed his beloved cup.

You must know that since "Farewell My Concubine", one of his works is not as good as the other. After being questioned, he managed to gather a large team of big directors, big investment and painstaking efforts to produce this big-budget movie. No one will be allowed to slander tarnish.

"How's the box office going?"

Chen Hong's complexion was not much better, covered by a layer of faint dark clouds, and he stared at the manager with eyes hiding his anger.

"Not ideal!"

The agent shook his head and sighed: "Because of this spoof video, the word-of-mouth of "The Promise" is getting worse and worse. It will definitely dissuade a group of potential viewers who want to watch the movie, so until now, the box office has barely broken through 5000 million."

"Sue, sue this person for me!"

Brother Chen Kai stomped his feet in anger, his hands trembling, "He maliciously tampered with my movie is blasphemy, I want him to apologize publicly, now, immediately, immediately..."

"Just a simple apology is too easy."

Chen Hong's heart is heavy. "The Promise" took 3 years to film, with an investment of 3.5 million, but according to the current trend, it is only a little over 1 million, and the profit share is at most 4000 million, and it has a solid loss of 3 million. This is 05. 3 billion!
It is very likely that the husband's first commercial test work may become the last commercial film of his personal director career.

Discredited!The future is ruined!
Brother Chen Kai would never accept it, let alone sit idly by. Under the operation of the studio, a small press conference was held quickly, and the media invited were all friendly.

"I don't think people can be so shameless!"

"We have already sued him, and we will definitely resolve this issue to the end!"

He was furious, and he was not reconciled to the fact that "The Promise" had become the biggest failure of his career.

"Is it because of "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun"?"

The reporter's words literally hit Brother Chen Kai's lungs, his eyes were burning, and he couldn't restrain his excitement.

"Any product belongs to the public, and audiences have the right to make their own evaluations and judgments about the film. I can accept all comments on "The Promise", but I refuse to accept superficial and low-level comments from some shallow people. Violent theory!"

He raised his voice and said loudly: "The Promise, which I have devoted three years of hard work to create, is aimed at the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. Whether it is connotation or thought, I can guarantee that no one will be able to understand it within five years." !"

.........

"Old Hu, you've made a big deal out of it, you've made a big deal out of it!"

The colleague hurriedly handed over the lawyer's letter from Chen Kai's studio, and said, "Have you read the news? At the press conference, Chen Kai said that a lawsuit has been initiated and he wants to file a lawsuit with you."

"Fuck, I'm not malicious."

Hu Ge stared at the news on the portal in a daze. Although it was winter, his forehead was sweating and his back felt cold.

I am just a small media worker, how have I ever seen such a big battle?

"What the hell, you're still a famous director. If you're so narrow-minded, it's just a prank video. As for going online!"

Colleagues clenched their fists, aggrieved.

"Oh, I finally understand what it's like to be that hostess who cursed his box office. I may not be able to sleep for days and nights." Hu Ge panicked, "What do you think I should do?"

"It's up to you, do you want to be tough or to be cowardly?"

"What do you think, of course I bowed my head and admitted my mistake."

"Then quickly remove "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun" from websites such as Tudou and Penguin Video, and then directly apologize to Brother Chen Kai, whether to the media or online, and say that it was just a whim, just for fun. "

"Can this work?"

"What else can you do besides doing this? Lose money?"

"I don't have the money to pay, and I don't have the money to go to court. Can you tell them not to sue me?" Hu Ge was trembling. He was just an ordinary mortal, and he didn't resist because of the blessing of morality.

"It depends on their mood, unless..."

The colleague patted him on the shoulder sympathetically.

At this moment, the phone suddenly buzzed.

The caller claimed to be Penguin's legal department. Hu Ge, who answered the call, was shocked suddenly. Huo Di stood up, stunned and said:
"You said Penguin is willing to provide legal aid free of charge?"

……

"Did he agree that "Steamed Bun Murder" will be exclusive to Penguin Video? Okay, very good, then you guys will prepare this case. As long as Brother Chen Kai dares to fight, we will take it."

Lu Fei leaned against the head of the bed, holding the phone with one hand, and controlling the ball with Gao Yuanyuan with the other, "Penguin video stepped on "The Promise" and his head, and it became a hit!"

"Well."

Gao Yuanyuan planted her head in the man's arms, and drew circles on his chest with her left hand: "No wonder you insisted on adding such questions to Liu Yan's interview script, so you are waiting for Director Chen here, you are really bad."

"How can this be my fault?"

Lu Fei put the phone on the bedside table.

"You, aren't you bad?"

Gao Yuanyuan's eyes were blurred, and she raised her white neck, "If you go on like this, "The Promise" will be good? Director Chen's hard-earned reputation will be completely ruined."

Lu Fei shrugged his shoulders, "That's his own problem, who made his movie so bad, the public's eyes are discerning, but it's not allowed to say that it's bad, and in turn scold the audience for their poor level, what's the most annoying This kind of pretentiousness is incompetent."

"But you've dealt with it too harshly. This time, "The Promise" will definitely lose everything. Anyway, the investor and the producer are both China Film Group. Let Han Dong save some face."

Gao Yuanyuan raised her head with straight eyes.

"It's wrong, I haven't played hard yet."

Lu Fei pinched her chin, then turned over and pressed down, "Hey, this is just the beginning."

The next day, in order to avoid responsibility, Tudou, LeTV and other websites reluctantly gave up and took down the video, but Penguin remained unmoved and even announced its support for Hu Ge.

There is no doubt that the first counterattack was fired.

Immediately afterwards, some paper media jumped out, such as the "Yanjing Morning Post" directly imitating Chen Kai's tone of irony, "Suing the spoofer? People can't be so boring."

And "Southern Metropolis Daily" just made a long story, and commented unceremoniously: ""The Promise" is a funny film that has no idea, but "Steamed Bun" is real."

After traditional media, it will soon be the turn of online media.

Driven by a mysterious force, Hu Ge miraculously received exclusive interviews from portal websites such as Penguin, Net Arts, and New Wolf, and kept pretending to be pitiful and screaming:

"In this era of entertainment to death, this kind of popular complaints is called 'deconstruction' in fashionable words, and 'spoofs' in popular terms on the Internet. I don't understand how a spoof edited version of "The Promise" can make people Director Chen Kai broke the defense!
Shouldn't a true master have the heart of an apprentice? "

In an instant, public opinion continued to ferment, and netizens and the media stood up one after another, all overwhelmingly sided with Hu Ge, and pushed him to the throne of "the originator of the spoof world".

Really, Fight to Fame!
"A Bloody Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun" was listed as a popular recommendation on Penguin Video, and the number of hits seemed to exceed 500 million. The traffic brought by it immediately ignited the entire client, and the number of visits went straight to the top of the video website, far ahead of the second place. Tudou.com.

Together with it, it also drives the enthusiasm of "UCG" in the film and television area.

A group of Tucao masters, such as Yi Xiaoxing, came into being at the right moment. It can be said that they occupy the time. Eight out of 10 of the entire Tucao section are related to "The Promise".

"Read! I want to know how the netizens scolded me!"

Brother Chen Kai is a "poet" who doesn't understand the ancients. Old Antique is not very good at surfing the Internet, so he specially asked his wife to log in to Penguin Video.

"Forget it, these are violent comments made by unscrupulous people."

Chen Hong's expression was awkward, he hesitated and couldn't open his mouth.

"Then I'll see for myself!"

Brother Chen Kai poked his head and looked at the comment area:
["The Promise" can be renamed "Boring"]

[The box office failed, our director Chen Da didn't dare to take responsibility, he needed a scapegoat, and he actually found the author of "Steamed Bun Murder", a typical dog jumping over the wall in a hurry! 】

[I was speechless when I saw that report, Director Chen, Director Chen, don’t you feel ashamed and I’m ashamed for you. You made an entertainment film yourself but it couldn’t entertain everyone. Hu Ge helped you entertain everyone, you Tell me again, why is it so hard to serve you as a great director? 】

[How should I put it, even if it's a 5 yuan ticket for the school auditorium, I won't buy it, because no matter how much gold leaf is wrapped in a pile of defense, it won't turn into chocolate]

[The last analogy is very good, but have you considered Ferrero's feelings]

【Dove may also be trembling】

[Director Chen Da announced that he wanted to sue Hu Ge, but he didn't dare to report it at all, he was just hyping up the movie]

【……】

"Drink some water and calm down."

Seeing his chest heaving up and down with anger, Chen Hong quickly brought a cup, and then gently patted him on the back.

"There's no reason for this, there's no reason for this!"

Brother Chen Kai noticed that there was even a reversal of the verdict in the remarks, and praised Liu Yan as a prophet. "The Promise" is indeed a deformed child who died young, and his facial features slowly squeezed into a ball.

"Let's withdraw the lawsuit, we will mediate privately with them."

Although Chen Hong felt distressed, there was nothing he could do.

"Mediation? I'm a great international director. If I mediate with a video villain like him, wouldn't that be a loss!"

Brother Chen Kai hated Hu Ge, the instigator.

"How could he lose his reputation? He has a penguin behind him. It's very difficult to win, even if he can win, it's very difficult to win."

Chen Hong grabbed his trembling hand and calmly persuaded him: "It's not necessary, it's really not necessary, take a step back and open up the sea and the sky."

"Retreat, how to retreat? Honghong, you can see clearly."

Brother Chen Kai poked the screen fiercely with his finger, and saw a shocking comment in the comment area——

From "Farewell My Concubine" to "The Promise", everyone feels that the two films are very different, one is heavenly and the other is underground. It wasn't made by Brother Chen Kai, he was just a nominal director, but it was actually his father's masterpiece.

Look at the number of likes, breaking 2!
The number of comments exceeds a thousand floors!

"This this……"

Chen Hong was taken aback, did he still want to kill someone?
"So mediation? Hehe, mediation is impossible, how can mediation be possible!"

Brother Chen Kai was so angry and anxious that his lungs almost exploded.

The husband and wife were talking, when suddenly the door opened unexpectedly, and the manager hurried over.

"Didn't I tell no one to come in!"

Chen Kai's eyes were fierce, as if he wanted to eat people.

"problem occurs."

The agent hurriedly handed over the latest "People's Daily", "When we were filming "The Promise", we accidentally damaged the natural landscape of Shangri-La's Bigu Tianchi and reported it."

"what?!"

When Chen Kai saw the headline read "<Wuji> Ecological Disaster, Destruction of Ecology Should Be Severely Punished", he couldn't help feeling chills.

Why do they seem to be targeting me in the dark?

Is it a coincidence?

still is……
