light and shadow [entertainment circle]

Three days later, Guangying Films held a press conference in the press release center set up by its own company. Entertainment journalists from all over the country came in droves. Countless TV or webcast images were aimed at the rostrum. Xia Zhi, who had been missing for three months, faced the public and the media for the first time.

At ten o'clock, the press conference officially began.To everyone's surprise: Guan Shan, Tang Chi, and Li Zhiyi were the only ones sitting on the rostrum, and Xia Zhi himself hadn't shown up yet.

If the real master doesn't come, the news won't be hot, and the ratings won't increase. All the entertainment journalists present immediately buzzed.

"Why doesn't the summer solstice come?"

"With such insincerity, how can we cooperate with the report?"

"Mr. Guan, please explain!"

"Mr. Tang, is your company's decision-making unable to influence Xia Zhi's behavior?"

……

"Please be quiet, everyone! Be quiet!" Tang Chi held the microphone in front of him with one hand, and tried his best to raise the volume to stop them.But he yelled several times in a row, obviously with little effect.Those entertainment journalists not only turned a deaf ear to it, but one after another couldn't wait to throw questions at the rostrum like cannonballs, as if those acrimonious questions could be proved to be true as long as they were spoken out.

"During the summer solstice, I have not appeared in front of the public. Is it as shameless as netizens said?"

"Did he hide his sexuality? Deceived the audience?"

"Are he and Zeng Yijing gay?"

"Did he kill Zeng Yijing?"

……

Seeing that the entertainment journalists were asking more and more outrageous questions, Tang Chi finally couldn't help but stood up and slapped the table vigorously, and shouted: "Quiet!" The loud roar really worked, and the audience immediately fell silent.He looked around the audience for another week, glared at several entertainment reporters who were still eager to speak, and finally controlled the scene.Tang Chi breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice: "Today is Guangying's press conference on the summer solstice withdrawal from the film industry. Please control your emotions. We will arrange time for questions after the reception. If... the reception is still in the middle Someone broke the rules, so Guangying had no choice but to ask him to leave the venue early. In addition," Tang Chi raised his finger and pointed at the camera next to the rostrum, "Our Guangying also has its own webcast platform. Every word you say now, Every question asked will be truthfully recorded and broadcast to audiences all over the country. So, please pay attention to your words, and at the same time, Light and Shadow will retain all the powers given to us by law! Thank you!" After finishing speaking, he Glancing at Guan Shan, he sat back again.

"Okay, thank you all for taking the time to attend today's press conference." Guan Shan immediately took the microphone and said plainly. "About the 'I quit.' microblog updated by Xia Zhi three days ago, yes, this microblog was indeed sent by Xia Zhi himself, and it was his own wish, and we Guangying Films will also respect his decision So, yes, Xia Zhi officially quit the film industry three days ago, that is, on X, X, 20XX, due to personal reasons! The decision will take effect immediately, thank you everyone!" After saying these four sentences, Guan Shan also got up immediately left the rostrum.

The audience was in an uproar!The shouts of the entertainment journalists present rushed towards Tang Chi and Li Zhiyi who were still sitting on the rostrum like a tsunami.The barrage is rolling!The major live broadcast platforms fell instantly, "Impossible!", "I don't believe it!", "!!!!!!" and other barrages made every live broadcast page airtight, as if it had been pasted with hundreds of layers of wallpaper.

Sitting on the rostrum, for some reason, Tang Chi raised his wrist and glanced at his watch at this moment, exactly one minute!Then he folded his arms and sat calmly on his face. After about five or six minutes, the entertainment journals present and the barrage on the Internet finally gradually quieted down.Only then did Tang Chi nod in satisfaction. He raised his hand and patted the microphone and said, "Very good! It seems that everyone can accept this result calmly! So, is there anything else you want to ask? Please raise your hand and speak."

In the next second, all the arms off the field were raised in unison.

Tang Chi casually pointed to Yu Ji who was the first to raise his hand in his sight. "Sit up the fifth in the third row."

"Thank you, Mr. Tang!" The male entertainment reporter who got the right to ask questions immediately stood up excitedly. "Excuse me, what is the specific reason for Xia Zhi's withdrawal?"

"Personal reasons." Tang Chi dryly repeated the four words Guan Shan had said just now, and then asked questions that were still full of meaning. "Didn't you listen just now?"

"Can……"

However, before Yuji could ask the second question, Tang Chi shouted, "Very well, thank you, please sit down! Next question?...Okay, the first one from the left in the second row."

"Excuse me, Mr. Tang, will Xia Zhi come back?"

"Oh... I can't answer this question." Tang Chi shrugged helplessly, "Maybe, maybe not, who knows? I can only say, in a short time, no."

"A short time is..." How short?

Of course, Yu Ji, who asked the second question, still hadn't had time to finish his question, Tang Chi quickly called out, "Next question?"

"How short is a short time? One month? One year? A lifetime?" Fortunately, the third Yuji who stood up helped him complete the question.

"Actually, I hope it's only a week." Tang Chi said solemnly, "Unfortunately, the decision is not mine, but Xia Zhi himself."

"So, has Light and Shadow completely lost control over Xia Zhi?"

"Control? No, no! Xia Zhi is a person, not a tool. He is even the third largest shareholder of our Guangying Film Industry. Guangying Film Industry has never tried to control him. As an actor, the relationship between Guangying and him is cooperation; As a shareholder, Guangying has a subordinate relationship with him."

"Excuse me, Mr. Tang, why isn't Xia Zhi here today?"

"Xia Zhi's resignation statement was issued three days ago, and the time for his official resignation has also been counted from three days ago. Therefore, in theory, he has ceased to be a public figure since three days ago, and he himself refuses to appear in such a public The occasion doesn't seem to be a problem?... You don't think that the light and shadow 'controlled' Xia Zhi and 'kidnapped' his will, right?"

Tang Chi's wisecrack was not attended by many people, and after a few laughs, someone stood up and asked, "Mr. Tang, is Xia Zhi's refusal to attend today's press conference because he feels ashamed to face the public? "

Tang Chi narrowed his eyes, and asked softly and slowly, "What do you mean by 'faceless to the public'?"

"Has Xia Zhi concealed his sexual orientation from the public? Are he and Zeng Yijing gay? Is it true that he killed Zeng Yijing? Is he announcing his withdrawal today because the police are about to investigate him and he plans to abscond abroad Mr. Tang, please answer truthfully, the public has the right to know, this is irrefutable!"

Such sharp questions immediately silenced the audience, and all the entertainment journalists looked up at the warrior who got up to ask the question with pale faces and red eyes.I hated him for daring to ask questions, and I hated myself for not daring to ask questions.As for the Yu Ji himself, he was looking at Tang Chi with a complacent face. He knew that no matter what Tang Chi asked and answered...it didn't matter!The important thing is that he himself, in the industry, became an instant hit!

Tang Chi was also silent for a while, not for a long time, probably more than a minute.But this one minute or so was enough for the daring Yuji to start to feel uneasy, start to shrink back, and start to wonder if he was too impulsive, and whether the question was too sharp.However, before he could open his mouth to change his mind, Tang Chi had already spoken first. "I know, everyone knows, that the public has an irrefutable right to know. For a long time, our uncrowned kings, you, have also been running rampant and speaking freely under the banner of 'fighting for the public's right to know'. You dare to ask anything and do anything, including directly convicting an innocent person without investigation, without trial, or without any judicial process! The four questions you just asked convict Xia Zhi of at least three crimes , fraud, murder, absconding! Now, I ask you, who gave you such power? Who allowed you to have such power to trample on the dignity and reputation of a natural person who still has all human rights in law? It is the public's right to know Is it your irresistible, infinitely inflated, and incomparably vicious selfishness as the spokesperson of the public?... Friends of the journalists present, is there anyone who graduated from the serious journalism department of a serious university? Can you answer my doubts? ?...No? None?...Then, security guard, write down his name and the unit he works for. The legal department of Guangying Films will send you a lawyer's letter in time. Please check it! Thank you!...Next question ?”

The whole audience was silent!Only a bullet screen slid past on the live broadcast platform alone.

"Okay... so fucking handsome!"

In the next second, the barrage rolled again——

"top!"

"Speak my heart!"

"I've seen those paparazzi not pleasing to the eye!"

"I, Xia Ming, only quit because I felt disgusted by them!"

"Sue them! Sue them! Fuck!"

……

"If everyone has no problem..." Seeing that he had silenced everyone, Tang Chi finally smiled with satisfaction.Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, someone raised his hand again. "Excuse me."

"Thank you!" Mo Yue was really shocked by Tang Chi's words just now. Yu Ji, who had the right to ask questions, stood up and thanked him politely, "Excuse me, Mr. Tang, after Xia Zhi withdraws, Guangying will choose Who do you want to succeed your first brother?"

"I am here to correct a point of view. Who is the first brother is not the choice of the light and shadow, but the choice of the market." Tang Chi said slowly with a heart-to-heart look, "The light and shadow can be biased, but if the actor's own strength is not enough, the director The first one will not agree. Even if the director is bribed, the actors who work with him will not be convinced; even if the actors are settled again, the market will not pay the bill. Therefore, it is the market and the audience that Xia Zhi can become the first brother. Choice, not the bias of light and shadow. As for who the next brother is, it also depends on the market and the audience.”

"Then Mr. Tang's implication is that Xia Zhi's withdrawal is also the choice of the market and the audience?"

"No, that's your credit. The market and the audience are responsible for choosing the first brother they like, and you are responsible for screening the first brother according to your own taste and deciding whether he can stay on that throne. You say 'yes' and he stays ;You say 'no', he's gone! Even if he won the Golden Branch Award, the Golden Peony Award and the Jade Rabbit Award before the age of 25, even if he has four films ranked in the top ten at the box office, even if he has seven works with a score of 9.2 points The above, even though he still holds the highest domestic and international box office record to this day! None of this matters, none of this matters! What matters is you! Your preferences and preferences, your judgments and convictions! All of this matters It's your achievement, please don't belittle yourself! Now, Xia Zhi will quit," Tang Chi stood up slowly with his hands on the table, and finally asked a question. "Isn't that exactly what you want?"

"Isn't this exactly what you want!!!"

"3 awards, 4 box office records, 7 high-scoring works! Let me ask, who else is fucking?!"

"I'm not targeting anyone, I mean, everything that is present and not present is all rubbish!"

"I'm calling for Boss Tang today! Calling like crazy!"

……

The barrage was raging, and the crowd was furious.Those who manipulate public opinion will also be counterattacked by public opinion, without exception!

After Tang Chi left, Li Zhiyi finally got the right to speak. He stood up and said slowly: "Before today's press conference is over, as Xia Zhi's manager, I have one last job to complete. Please give me a few minutes time."

The entertainment journalists, who were almost blindsided by Tang Chi's slaps, whispered for a while before sitting upright uncomfortably.

"After Xia Zhi retired from the film industry, he is no longer a public figure. In other words, his sexual orientation, his preferences, his whereabouts, everything about him enjoys the indisputable civil human rights, especially the right to privacy! From now on, his official support site will be shut down, except for basic maintenance, no new fan registration and visits will be accepted; his Weibo will no longer be updated, his whereabouts will no longer be reported to anyone, and his photos will no longer be available. With permission, he is not allowed to appear in any public places, including newspapers, magazines, websites, videos, etc.; he does not accept any comments or reports on his private affairs. All media reporters present here, if you violate any of the above, you will be punished. If you violated the law, the Light and Shadow legal department will send you a lawyer's letter! Thank you for your cooperation! Alright, today's press conference is over! Thank you everyone!"
