A different director [entertainment circle]

The middle-aged men were sitting together, and the delicacies of mountains and seas were piled up on the wine table in front of them, as well as several bottles of Moutai.

This is a true portrayal of the nouveau riche party.

Liu Zhenghao is bragging with a group of friends at the wine table:

"You said, Qin Yan was so arrogant before, he dared to sing a diagonal scene with me. Isn't the quality of the movie just like that now? I guess he should hide in a corner and cry now! Next time we meet, I want him to kneel down and give I kowtow to admit my mistake!"

Liu Zhenghao was very arrogant when he said this, he was so excited that he stood up, with one foot on the chair, and one hand holding the wine glass high, his face was flushed and he was heroic.

Fortunately, the sound insulation of private rooms in this hotel is really good, otherwise these words will be on the news the next day.

At the wine table, these are all wild friends he knew before, who are now laundering money with him in the film industry, and there are a few new friends who are professionals who help him manage public opinion.

When Liu Zhenghao mentioned "The Gatekeeper" and Qin Yan, he was full of anger. After all, Liu Zhenghao was under too much pressure some time ago.

He couldn't sleep well every night from the time the movie was confirmed until the day before it was released.I am especially afraid of comparing "The French Open" and "The Gatekeeper" together, and I am afraid that my movie's box office will be crushed.

In the film industry, once you lose money, it is a bottomless pit.

Like "French Open" with an investment of 4000 million yuan, there are many films whose final box office does not exceed the investment amount, and the calculation results in a loss of 3000 million yuan.

Even with his current net worth, it would be traumatic.Liu Zhenghao visited various parties and asked for help.

But people in the industry have seen the menace of "The Gatekeeper", and not many people dare to help him. In the end, those who advise him are some malignant tumors in the industry.

For example, Liu Yongchang, who is currently praising Liu Zhenghao: "Boss Liu is out, so what about the quality of "The French Open"? You see how arrogant Qin Yan was before, isn't he afraid to fart now?"

Qin Yan's silence in recent days has been interpreted by them as a signal of surrender.

"In the end, I have to thank you for this matter. Mr. Liu Yongchang, if it weren't for your wonderful plan, those fools on the Internet would not be crazy to boycott "The Gatekeeper."

Liu Yongchang is the professional who advised Liu Zhenghao recently.He used to work in entertainment newspapers, and he is best at writing all kinds of rumors and scandals, and he has dealt with many celebrities.

But their line of business has never been on the stage. In the past few years, he saw the development momentum of the Internet age, and began to look for new opportunities. He came out and fought hard to see if he could win his own country.

Liu Yongchang has already set up some online publicity platforms and small websites, and at the same time, when he started to settle in large platforms such as NetEase, Sohu, and Qiandu, he saw Liu Zhenghao's plight.

So he took the initiative to approach Liu Zhenghao and give him advice on how to discredit Qin Yan and "The Gatekeeper".

Liu Yongchang's accumulation in the past two years is still useful.If they want to discredit a well-known director like Qin Yan through traditional media, the media will definitely consider the social status of both parties.

After all, most of the media are bullying and afraid of hard, and they are also afraid of confronting some influential figures.

So entertainment reporters like them always have a development line, and they have no social status.

But the times are different now. As long as you hide yourself behind the Internet, who can know that they are manipulating public opinion behind the scenes?

Up to now, no one has found him, which proves that his eyes

Liu Yongchang smiled modestly and said, "Where is that? There are still many methods that have not been used in time. I thought Qin Yan would be someone, but he didn't even carry out the first move."

Liu Yongchang is indeed very smart, otherwise he would not stand out in the Yuji industry, let alone be the first to see the Internet revolution in the media industry.

Liu Yongchang designed a detailed plan, first criticizing the quality of "The Gatekeeper" on a large scale, and then making a comparison between "The Gatekeeper" and "French Open".

In fact, up to this point, Liu Zhenghao's goal has been achieved and the box office of "French Open" has been guaranteed, but Liu Yongchang's most insidious trick is yet to come.

Liu Yongchang registered a large number of accounts on "Strange Flavor Beans" a few months in advance, and the accounts have been taken care of by someone, and he can be regarded as a popular film critic "person" who has attracted a lot of attention.

The Internet industry believes that "Weird Beans" was the fastest growing website last year.The reason is that Qin Yan accurately found a niche field, and then continued to work hard. The most important thing was to invest regardless of cost, and cultivated a group of extremely sticky users.

This has caused domestic movie lovers to concentrate on "Strange Beans", which seems to be a movie viewing guide for domestic movie lovers.

In fact, many people have noticed the particularity of "Strange Beans". If you can promote movies on it, the effect will be better than that of comprehensive portal sites like Sohu.

It's just that all the promotional cooperation was rejected by Qin Yan, and there was no commercial income, which made everyone feel very sorry.

This is a hen that can lay golden eggs, but Qin Yan, an idiot, can't take advantage of it.

Liu Yongchang's original plan was to use the "Strange Flavor Beans" founded by Qin Yan to defeat Qin Yan through public opinion attacks, and this plan was supported by Liu Zhenghao from the very beginning.

What a painful thing to be crushed by the website I founded.Only in this way can Liu Zhenghao finish venting his anger.

As long as Qin Yan bans the user account in his hand, or suppresses "French Open Recovery" and promotes "The Gatekeeper" on "Queer Bean", Liu Yongchang immediately uses all his resources and channels, including physical and Internet, to fight against "Strange Taste" bean" to criticize.

Once "Strange Bean" loses its credibility and is regarded as Qin Yan's tool to manipulate movie reviews, the reputation of "Strange Bean" and Qin Yan will collapse instantly.

Even Liu Yongchang and Liu Zhenghao discussed that if "Strange Bean" really fell because of this incident, Liu Zhenghao would invest in Liu Yongchang to help Liu Yongchang build a similar website to replace "Strange Bean" in its current position.

Liu Yongchang believes that with his own ability, he can definitely build a movie review website that can easily "guide" the views of the general public.

In this way, no matter what movies are released in the future, they will definitely come to him for a wave of promotion, which will be a steady stream of income.

And this is also the deadly trap that Liu Yongchang planted for Qin Yan.

However, what disappointed Liu Yongchang was that Qin Yan was too stupid.

In Liu Yongchang's heart, I'm afraid that Qin Yan has not discovered that many users of "Strange Flavored Beans" are actually employees specially hired by him to release some unfavorable news about "Gatekeeper".

This made Liu Yongchang feel a little bit outspoken. It turns out that Invincible is so lonely.

I had clearly predicted Qin Yan's reaction, but Qin Yan didn't even find out the situation.

Anyway, it is now the fifth day of the film's release, and the box office of "The French Open" has completely overtaken "The Gatekeeper", and the box office of the next first week will be released soon.

For someone like him who is very happy with his achievements, now he can't wait to announce his success to the whole world.But what little reason he had left told him that he had to wait.

After all, his current social image is not good, if the public is reminded of his bad things, it will be troublesome.

So Liu Zhenghao had no choice but to hold such an internal celebration meeting first, and during the intermingling of wine and wine, Liu Zhenghao's cell phone kept beeping sharply.

At first, Liu Zhenghao glanced at the person who called him, and refused to answer him alive or dead. Is there anything in this world that is as important as his meal?

But the other party seemed to have an urgent matter and was hung up 5 times, and he was still on the phone.Liu Yongchang couldn't stand it anymore, he said:

"Boss Liu, why don't you just answer the phone, what if the sister-in-law at home has something to do?"

Liu Zhenghao didn't care: "What can she do, can she control me?"

But Liu Zhenghao still answered the phone.

"What's the matter? If you have any farts, hurry up and don't delay my drinking."

"What did you say? The Daily Citizen is going to run a story about The Gatekeeper tomorrow? What's going on?"

"Fucking, tell me clearly. You said that the Beacon Country is very fond of "The Gatekeeper", so the relevant domestic agencies have paid attention to it, and they want to give official praise."

"I %^&*%, what are you doing?"

Liu Zhenghao is not a fool whose mind is full of straws. After hearing the news, he immediately realized that the whole thing was wrong.

They are all aware of the difference in quality between "French Open Recovery" and "The Gatekeeper".The reason why "The Gatekeeper" is able to suppress "The Gatekeeper" at the box office is still entirely dependent on the evaluation of netizens.

But in 2005, what could best represent and influence public opinion?Definitely not any periodical newspaper, nor any online platform.

It must be an official publication at the national level.

Moreover, there was a lot of discussion on the Internet about the quality of "The Gatekeeper".If the official came out to step in and directly characterize "The Gatekeeper", then the box office would be hard to say.

After listening to his subordinate's report, Liu Zhenghao dropped his phone to the ground, and it fell apart in an instant.You can see how angry Liu Zhenghao is.

It was Liu Yongchang who made Liu Zhenghao even more angry. He had once sworn to him that there was no possibility of a comeback. All Liu Zhenghao asked angrily:

"Didn't you say that there is no possibility of a comeback for "The Gatekeeper" now? Why did the official media suddenly come out and intervene?"

Seeing Liu Zhenghao's anger and the key points of a few words just now, Liu Yongchang knew that there must be trouble.

But he also grasped the key point, he said: "I can't do anything about this matter, no matter how hard we try, I can't stop the achievements of "The Gatekeeper" in the Lighthouse Country, and I can't do anything about it." How to control the national media.”

"Boss Liu, let me go back and find out the situation, and then think about how to deal with this matter.

Now the entire wine bureau was in full swing just now, and no one in the wine bureau dared to speak now.

After a while, everyone packed up their things, those who should go home went home, those who should work continued to work, and Liu Yongchang immediately called his staff to start working.

Because of the existence of the global satellite network, news and information between countries are now completely interoperable.Liu Yongchang easily found the situation of "The Gatekeeper" in the Lighthouse Country.

It was only then that he realized that he had made a huge mistake. He completely ignored that Qin Yan's rise to fame was in the Lighthouse Country, and he also ignored the special nature of "The Gatekeeper".

It turned out that on November 11, "The Gatekeeper" was released not only in the mainland, but also in the Lighthouse Country at the same time.

It is a luxury for most directors in mainland China to release them simultaneously, but Qin Yan is able to do it.

Because of "Ancient House" and "Laughing Jianghu", the relationship between Qin Yan and Paramount Pictures became closer.

When Qin Yan sent the sample of "The Gatekeeper" to Paramount, Paramount actually hesitated. After all, their country rarely releases non-martial arts movies from China.

Especially for a movie with a little depth like "The Gatekeeper", the actors are all Chinese. This is a completely unknown field, and it is very likely to suffer a disastrous failure.

But in the end, what really made them decide was not the success of "Ancient House" at the beginning, but Qin Yan's statement on "Laughing Jianghu".

Paramount Pictures also wanted to release "Laughing Jianghu" in North America before, but Qin Yan took the initiative to persuade "Laughing Jianghu" that the jokes are not the type that North Americans can understand.

Such an active avoidance of the release, to avoid the loss of Paramount Pictures.Because of this, they recognized Qin Yan's character very much, not only as a business partner, but also as a friend.

Especially Dellman is even more grateful to Qin Yan.

So when Qin Yan said to Dellman, "Believe me, the core of "The Gatekeeper" meets the spiritual needs of the people of the Lighthouse. Although it is destined not to be as popular as "Ancient House", its final score will definitely not be bad." At the time, Dellman chose to believe.

Daleman, who entered the top management of Paramount Pictures because of "Ancient House", mustered up his courage and made a decision among the top management. "The Gatekeeper" will be released simultaneously in North America in November.

Of course, this is just Dellman's exaggerated statement to Qin Yan. How much effort he has put in and how many difficulties he has overcome... It's all in order to bring him closer to Qin Yan.

But Qin Yan knew that "The Gatekeeper" could be released in North America because the schedule was very suitable.

Just like Chinese people have Spring Festival and New Year files, Beacon Country also has its own popular movie schedule, which is the Christmas file in December.

Now all blockbuster movies are staring at the Christmas file, and November is a relatively deserted time period.

This is a schedule that relies entirely on strength, and "The Gatekeeper" from the mainland of Huaguo at least has the qualifications to compete.

In any case, "The Gatekeeper" was released quietly and simultaneously in the Lighthouse Country.

At the beginning, "The Gatekeeper" did not cause much disturbance. Just like what Paramount Pictures worried about at the beginning, this is a purely Chinese film.

In terms of propaganda, Qin Yan chose the method of combining public opinion and the mass line.

As soon as the film was released, Paramount immediately invited a large number of professional film critics to watch "The Gatekeeper".

As professionals, they have a deeper understanding of film.

What first attracted them was the technology demonstrated by Qin Yan in filming.

In particular, these filmmakers have seen Qin Yan's first two works, and they are already quite familiar with Qin Yan, a young director from the East.

Sure enough, "The Gatekeeper" still did not disappoint them this time. Regardless of the narrative structure, lens language or editing, it is a very high-scoring work.

Then they began to pay attention to the acting skills of the actors.They only gave a passing grade for the actors due to the difference in skin color.

Only relying on Qin Yan and the actors, "The Gatekeeper" has been able to get a passing box office in the lighthouse country.

What really surprised them was the script "The Gatekeeper".

Because compared with Huaguo, the people of Beaconland are more sensitive to the spirit that "The Gatekeeper" wants to convey.

What kind of image does the lighthouse country have in the world?

They claim to be the beacon of liberalism, they claim to be the birthplace of procedural justice in modern legal society, and they claim to be the most solid supporters of the law...

This is indeed an exaggeration, but it must also be admitted that the procedural justice in the modern legal system is indeed flourishing in the lighthouse country.

Here is the world-shocking Third Bill of Rights of the Beacon Country Constitution, as well as Miranda cases and Simpson cases that are enough to go down in the annals of history and have been turned into movies many times.

"Procedural justice" is a gold-lettered signboard of the Beacon Country.

But the problem is that the people of Beacon Country have actually been suffering from "procedural justice" in recent years.

In many cases, in order to emphasize the so-called "procedural justice", judges and juries do not know how many perpetrators who can be confirmed but lack evidence or lack procedures.

Judges can understand the importance of "procedural justice".But ordinary people are different, they also have a simple concept of justice in their hearts.

In the past few years, Beacon Country's own movies have still emphasized the greatness of its own country's procedural justice, which has caused dissatisfaction among many people at the bottom.

At this time, Qin Yan's "The Gatekeeper" began to discuss the lack of "procedural justice".

This completely hit the first pain point of ordinary audiences in Beacon Country!

The second pain point comes from Xi Qianqian's role in the movie, Zhang Tiantian.

The Lighthouse Country is different from the Hua Country. The Lighthouse Country is a Christian country.

Even though they claim to be the freest country in the world, in fact, women in the vast majority of states in the lighthouse country do not even have the right to have their own reproductive rights.

Because they think this is the so-called "natural human rights".When the fetus is formed, no one can deprive it of its life.

But when Xi Qianqian showed them the pain/fruit/fruit of an unwanted pregnancy mother through her acting skills, they realized:

It turned out that an unexpected pregnancy would really ruin a girl's life.

These film critics are all invited by Paramount, and of course their asses have to sit upright.

So soon, there were many comments in the lighthouse country that praised "The Gatekeeper", which is called: a commercial film with a global perspective that discusses common problems of human beings.

It turns out that there are different countries and different cultures in this world, but human beings will encounter some common problems.

Don't underestimate what Qin Yan has always cherished before, that little bit of reputation among the audience in the Lighthouse Country.

It is this little bit of fame that allowed "The Gatekeeper" to attract the first wave of audiences, who spent two hours watching the work of a director from a strange country.

"The Gatekeeper" really hit the pain points of the people of the Beacon Country, and its own quality is quite good.In addition, there were no movies that could be played in Beacon Country in November.

Therefore, the word-of-mouth of "The Gatekeeper" gradually fermented in the North American market, and the box office of "The Gatekeeper" continued to rise in the lighthouse country for 5 consecutive days.

Although in terms of this climbing speed and the number of box office, it is far from being able to compare with "Ancient House" back then.

But this deal is definitely a success for Paramount Pictures!

It is foreseeable that the investment-return ratio of "The Gatekeeper" is definitely higher than that of many local films in the lighthouse country.

Especially Dellman, he decided to pay more attention to Qin Yan's works in the future, such a director cannot be taken away by others.

Unknowingly, Qin Yan has become a golden signboard of Chinese-language movies in the West.

So Dellman made a special call to contact Qin Yan and said, "I didn't expect you to make such a movie that reflects the problems of the Beacon Country."

Qin Yan was on the other side of the earth, and replied humbly: "It can't be said that this was filmed for you. It's just that I have been trying to find a way to invade your film market."

Qin Yan made no secret of his ambitions for the North American box office market.

But upon hearing this sentence, Dellman didn't react much.

First of all, he is confident enough. Now there is only Qin Yan in the entire Huaguo mainland, such a director who has achieved good results in the Lighthouse country for two consecutive movies.

In addition, even if Qin Yan's movies are popular in the Lighthouse Country in the future, so what?

As long as I maintain my relationship with Qin Yan, as long as I can get an advantage in the contract, who cares which country's movie is shown in the theater?For Dellman, only money is his focus.

Qin Yan could hear the contempt for the movies in mainland China in Delman's tone.But Qin Yan didn't deny it in a hurry, he only used actions to prove everything.

In particular, many plans are closely linked, once leaked out in advance, it will fail completely.

And Qin Yan's layout was farther than anyone else's thought.

Just like "The Gatekeeper" this time, it was not just aimed at the box office of Huaguo from the beginning.

Qin Yan has never given up on the international route, nor has he given up on letting films from mainland China appear on international screens.

But the problem is that this matter is never something that can be done casually.

What is culture?That is a group with a culture that they are proud of.Culture is national from the very beginning, and it is narrow.

There are so many movies in the Beacon Country, and the industrial film system is so sound, but many movies in the Beacon Country have never caused any splashes in China.

For example, "Once Upon a Time in the West", which won the Oscar for best film, was about the plundering of Indians in the Beacon Country; for example, "Hidden Figures" about black issues, and "The Ten Commandments" about religious issues...

Are they good movies?Absolutely.Qin Yan has watched and studied these films many times, and has benefited a lot from them.

But how many Chinese people have seen it?Very few.

The reason is simple, the audience has no way to understand the culture.If you don't understand, how can you like it?If you don't like it, why spend money to go to the cinema to support it?

Qin Yan created "The Gatekeeper" on purpose this time.On the one hand, he uses the skin of Huaguo movies, but the topic of discussion is an issue that is more sensitive to Western audiences.

Now that "The Gatekeeper" is being screened in mainland China, the audience is concerned about the acting skills of the actors, Zhang Tiantian's tragic fate, and Du Hongru's modus operandi.

But "The Gatekeeper" is in the lighthouse country, and the focus immediately becomes "procedural justice" and "abortion rights".

Of course, this is not an absolute division, but a tendency.

In short, Qin Yan made a cake. The outer skin is what Chinese audiences like to eat, but the filling inside is what Western audiences like.

In this way, the problem of different tastes in the two markets can be alleviated to a certain extent.

It sounds simple, but only Qin Yan understands how difficult this matter is.

Haven't other directors tried to do this?have.

Ang Lee's "Eating and Drinking Men and Women" was actually doing this thing. It was covered with the shell of the lighthouse country, and it was filled with Chinese culture.

There are too many other movies like this, but most of them fail.

Just like fusion dishes, the slogans are shouted very loudly, and people all over the world should like them, but if they are not careful, they will become hated by the whole world.

In order to solve this problem, Qin Yan first made the movie screen and music of "The Gatekeeper" attractive enough, and both the skin and the filling have a certain degree of universality.

For example, Qin Yan didn't dare to use "Christianity" brand fillings, nor did he dare to use "reform and opening up" skins.

Moreover, in the movie version that Qin Yan provided to the Beacon Country, there were many scenes that were not found in Hua Country movies.For example, there are some religious elements in the design, and they don't have some fragments of official struggles in Huaguo.

Qin Yan designed this way to make "The Gatekeeper" acceptable to both markets.

Qin Yan doesn't expect to be able to make a movie like "The Ancient House" that makes movie lovers all over the world go crazy for it. That is an unrepeatable miracle.

Although "The Gatekeeper" is destined not to be the top movie in both countries.

But in any case, Qin Yan's goal has been achieved, that is, "The Gatekeeper" has won a good box office in the Lighthouse Country.

After the box office rose in the North American market, Qin Yan immediately contacted Huaying.

After all, Huaying is the distributor of "The Gatekeeper" this time, and Huaying is more anxious about the box office of "The Gatekeeper" than anyone else.Huaying immediately reported it to the relevant agencies.

Now Huaguo is still in a state that desperately needs international recognition.

In particular, the outbreak of typical pneumonia in 2004 damaged the international status of Huaguo to a certain extent.

All kinds of reasons make Huaguo desperately need to establish a cultural signboard of Huaguo.

If it weren't for the pressure from the state, the relevant agencies would not have been so straightforward when they were working on the "Film Shooting Opinions".

With the presence of relevant organizations, and the fact that this matter has publicity value, it is logical that official media such as "Citizen Daily" published a report on "The Gatekeeper"——

""The Gatekeeper", let the Western world know the legal justice of Huaguo!"

This is also one of the reasons why Qin Yanhui chose "procedural justice" as the theme of his creation.

Huaguo's judiciary has been criticized in the world, "Huaguo's judicial power is not independent enough", "influenced by administration", "legal backwardness", "Huaguo has no soil for the rule of law"...

"The Gatekeeper" shot by Qin Yan also aims to break this old and wrong concept.

"The Gatekeeper" is not just a commercial film for making money, Qin Yan hopes that "The Gatekeeper" can become a kind of cultural export.

Why 10 years later, there are so many Chinese people will worship the Western cultural system?

That comes from cultural influences in daily life, such as the decadent life in the West in movies, romantic and free love, heroic individualism...

If you want Huaguo's films to truly gain a foothold in the world, you must let the West understand and correctly understand Huaguo's culture.

And the most far-reaching influence is the value orientation conveyed by "Citizen Daily"——

"Why do we need procedural justice? Because we always have to limit the use of power, and once the power is unleashed, more victims may be endangered."

"There is no system in the world that is absolutely perfect."

Citizen Daily was extremely credible in 2005.

After this report came out, the Internet also had a final conclusion on whether the final ending of "The Gatekeeper" was good or bad.

Netizens who had previously clamored that "The Gatekeeper" was a trash movie felt that they had been slapped in the face.In order to make up for their previous stupidity, they all chose to go to the movie theater to see what kind of movie can make the people of the Lighthouse Country so praised.

It has to be admitted that for the current Hua Country, the Lighthouse Country is still a cultural bellwether.

This is a realistic problem that cannot be avoided. As long as it is something that the people of the West like, the current Chinese people will think it is high-level and correct.

Since even the people of the Beacon country in the West believe that "The Gatekeeper" is an excellent movie, many ordinary people in China directly choose to believe it.

Coupled with the recognition of China's mainstream media, the social evaluation of "The Gatekeeper" immediately reversed.

As for Hua Guo's brainless superstition towards the West, even Qin Yan couldn't think of a solution for the time being.And he used it in a very philistine way.

With the endorsement of domestic and foreign media, after watching "The Gatekeeper", the audience will spend their time analyzing the plot, turning point, acting skills...as well as everyone's position and the meaning of the final ending.

Qin Yan believes that as long as domestic films become better and better, audiences will gradually have independent film appreciation skills.

Previously on "Weird Beans", the hottest comment on "The Gatekeeper" was:

"While "The Gatekeeper" is a good movie, it didn't make me happy."

And now the hottest and most popular comments on "Strange Flavored Beans" have become:

"Although "The Gatekeeper" may not bring me the most exciting excitement, it is indeed a good movie."

You must know that two days ago, "Strange Flavored Beans" was still the most violent criticism of Qin Yan's "The Gatekeeper" movie.

More and more viewers know that they can no longer be superstitious about the judgment standards given by other movie users, they are just subjective opinions of others.

Movies still need to be identified by themselves.

As for the loudest users of "Strange Flavored Beans" who had previously clamored for it, they had selective amnesia, completely ignorant of their previous comments, and immediately deleted their movie comments.

Originally, the mainland box office of "The Gatekeeper" dropped to 100 million on the fifth day of its release, but when the "Citizen Daily" came out on the sixth day, the box office instantly bucked the trend and rose to more than 300 million, and it is still rising.

At this time, everyone in the industry already knew that it was only a matter of time before the box office of "The Gatekeeper" broke through [-] million.

They were all sighing, why Qin Yan was so lucky, he was already in a dead end, and he was able to achieve good box office results in the Lighthouse Country, and the relevant organizations would come forward to help him promote it.

However, none of them guessed at all that all of this was calculated and arranged by Qin Yan.

And the only person who knew the truth was Xie Beiyang. Even if he was only two days ahead, he was the only one in the whole world after all.

On the day when Xie Beiyang was depressed, Qin Yan finally told Xie Beiyang all his plans.

In fact, Qin Yan hesitated a little at the time. After all, if any link went wrong, for example, the reaction of the audience in the Lighthouse Country was not as strong as he imagined, and all his plans would collapse.

And if this matter gets out in advance, Liu Zhenghao will definitely find a way to deal with it.

But Qin Yan still chose to tell Xie Beiyang, and in the next few days, Xie Beiyang personally witnessed Qin Yan's plan, step by step, like an accurate prophecy.

Now Xie Beiyang looked at Qin Yan's eyes, filled with admiration, which made Qin Yan feel a little embarrassed.

For example, now Xie Beiyang secretly looked at Qin Yan in a daze.

Xie Beiyang stared at him, Qin Yan had no idea of ​​work at all, he stretched out his hand and patted Xie Beiyang's head and said:

"Okay, don't read it, and hurry up and do your own business."

Xie Beiyang just woke up like a dream.

But Xie Beiyang also has his own doubts: "Qin Yan, although Liu Zhenghao can't jump anymore, and the box office of "The Gatekeeper" is doomed, there is still one problem that has not been resolved."

The problem Xie Beiyang mentioned refers to the "water army" that still exists on "Strange Flavor Beans".

Recently, the Internet also invented the name "Water Army", but it did not come from "Strange Flavored Beans", but came from another legendary forum on Huaguo Internet - Tianya.

They call those hired Internet writers who publish specific information for specific content as trolls.

But now Internet users have seen the role of trolls, and also know the harmfulness of trolls to Internet public opinion.

Now people on "Strange Flavored Beans" have begun to apply jointly, hoping that the authorities will come forward to rectify the water army.Otherwise, before any movie is released, ordinary audiences may be judged by these "water troops".

Qin Yan said with a smile: "The navy must deal with it, but it's not the time yet."

Qin Yan already had a plan for the "naval army" in his heart. This is a cancer in the film and television industry in the future. If he could, he would of course want to give netizens an objective and clear look.

But this "water army rectification" plan is another bigger plan, and it can't be moved yet.

Xie Beiyang just witnessed Qin Yan's plan as a prophecy, and Xie Beiyang especially wanted to know the next plan in Qin Yan's mind.

Xie Beiyang knew that when he begged Qin Yan, Qin Yan often couldn't refuse his request, so he shook Qin Yan's hand with a pitiful expression and said:

"Tell me quickly, I really want to know."

Qin Yan will not be deceived by Xie Beiyang's "poor" acting skills, even if he is a little bit tempted in his heart, he will never admit it.

Because this question is too special, not to mention Xie Beiyang, even the current Qin Yan is still in danger, so he said in a very gentle voice, like a coaxing object:

"I can't be sure about this right now. I'll tell you when I finish the layout, okay?"

He had never heard such a gentle voice from Qin Yan before, Xie Beiyang was suddenly stunned, and could only rely on his instinct to nod his head in agreement.

Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang returned to normal life, but some people's life was not so easy.

How arrogant Liu Zhenghao was a few days ago, how desolate Liu Zhenghao is now.

Because of the reversal of the word-of-mouth of "The Gatekeeper", many people have also realized the existence of the "network navy".

Under Qin Yan's surreptitious instructions, someone exposed on the Internet how these sailors posted comments on "Strange Beans", how they praised "French Open Recovery", and at the same time belittled "The Gatekeeper".

Coupled with the powerful picture display function of "Strange Flavored Beans", everything can be displayed in front of the public at a glance.

In all fairness, the quality of "French Open Recovery" is not particularly bad, but who makes "French Open Recovery" have too many show operations?

Now that "French Open" and Liu Zhenghao no longer talk about martial arts, don't blame me for making trouble.

You used dirty tricks to me, and then I reasoned with you. Qin Yan is not such a foolish person.

Therefore, while the box office of "The Gatekeeper" is rising, the box office of "The French Open" has fallen off a cliff.

In addition, various scandals in Liu Zhenghao's real society were also exposed, and the entire public opinion was crushed on "French Open Recovery" like a landslide.

Some viewers even went to the cinema to buy tickets,
