A different director [entertainment circle]

The lineup of actors and directors invited for the movie "Prowler" is really luxurious. After all, the 4 million yuan salary is not for nothing.

What's more, if the word-of-mouth and box office of "Prowler" fails, it will also be a blow to actors like them, and they are naturally duty-bound.

Coupled with the status and resources of Jinmeng Company's Jiang Deshan in the industry, he is usually the master who responds to all calls and calls the wind and rain.

Dianjinmeng is known as the company with the strongest capital in the industry. Many people in the industry want to get in touch with Dianjinmeng, so when the public relations department of Dianjinmeng contacted many people in the industry, they were ecstatic and nodded in agreement.

Within half a day, more than a hundred actors, singers, idols, etc. who could be named, immediately followed and forwarded the Weibo of the director and producer of the "Prowler" movie.

XXX actor: I like it too.

XXX singer: I like it too.

XXX Idol: I like it too

In addition, there are even a large number of make-up artists, photographers, stylists and other related practitioners who have also joined this "I like it too" carnival. Many people have never watched "Prowler" at all. .

In particular, the main actors are all first- and second-tier stars and actors. It can be said that their fans basically include all the fans on the Internet, and the scale is really too huge.

All of a sudden, "I also like "The Prowler"" became the well-deserved No. 1 hot search on the entire Weibo, and below it was the hot search related to a single actor.

Opening any website is a compliment to "Prowler". This kind of treatment has never been enjoyed by any movie.

However, there are also many actors and stars who chose to remain silent after receiving hints from Dian Jinmeng.If it was normal, they wouldn't mind following the trend and adding fire, anyway, the entire entertainment circle was forwarding it, even if "Prowler" was really bad, no one would blame them.

The entertainment circle is also a place where the law does not blame the public.

The reason for their silence is very simple, not because they really uphold the objective evaluation of the movie, but because they can all see the vague confrontation between Qin Yan and Dian Jinmeng.

Whether it is Qin Yan's sudden comeback, or the discussion on the Internet comparing Hua Yan and Dianjinmeng movies in the past two days, it should not be a coincidence.

All the actors who wanted to audition for Qin Yan's new movie kept silent. They didn't want to take the initiative to stand in line at this time. Anyway, the results of "Prowler" had nothing to do with them.

On the other hand, Qin Yan's reputation in the circle is actually quite good. When he was in full swing, Qin Yan never gave orders in the circle. Qin Yan is indeed very strict, but his bottom line is just a basic legal standard in all fairness. .

Perhaps for their own benefit, they are willing to have close contacts with Jiang Deshan, but when Jiang Deshan and Qin Yan conflict, they will support Qin Yan from the bottom of their hearts.

So after the first wave of publicity was over, the speed of spreading and fermenting "I like it too" slowed down significantly.Even many celebrities chose to remain silent when faced with issues related to "Prowler".

After learning of such a result, Jiang Deshan was very upset. He even directly stated: "All these people have been blacklisted by me, and I will never have any cooperation with them."

Jiang Deshan is a person who counts pennies and pennies, otherwise he would not have spent so much effort to plot against Qin Yan.

Jiang Deshan originally thought that Qin Yan would fight back immediately, but Qin Yan suddenly fell silent.What is Qin Yan planning?Obviously the word of mouth is very good now, but Jiang Deshan still doesn't know what to eat.

Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang are actually busy with the preparations for the new movie. All the previous plans for "The Prowler" were actually Qin Yan's improvisation.

How to calculate Jiang Deshan after spending several years planning?In Qin Yan's view, this is totally worthless.All he needs to do is to ensure the quality of his movies and crush his opponents.

As for Jiang Deshan, it's just a flavoring agent in the process of filming.

Xie Beiyang helped Qin Yan sort out the list of roles that need to be auditioned, and took the time to glance at the comments on the Internet. He asked Qin Yan: "Why haven't you responded yet?"

Qin Yan didn't raise his head, and continued to screen the audition list: "It would be too cheap for him to respond now. Wait for this matter to ferment for a while."

I have to say that with so many celebrities forwarding Weibo at the same time, the effect is quite obvious.

At the beginning, the low score evaluation of Weiweidou was also interpreted by Dianjinmeng as "someone is maliciously sniping the "Prowler" movie, I hope everyone maintains their own judgment."

Everyone knows who the "malicious attack" refers to here.Netizens kept cueing Qin Yan and Huayan Company on the Internet with the attitude of watching the excitement and not thinking it was a big deal.

Moreover, Dianjinmeng Company spent a lot of money to hire the water army to control the rating of Weird Beans.

No scoring method is perfect, at least the overall score of Weird Beans has loopholes.You can participate as long as you buy movie tickets through Weiweidou, no additional certification is required.

While yelling at Qin Yan, Dian Jinmeng frantically bought tickets on Weiweidou, and spent millions of dollars to bring the score of "Prowler" back to 8.2.

On the first day alone, so much money was spent to control the score, which caused Jiang Deshan to drop two more teacups.

And the score of "8.2" is enough to make many audiences who don't know the inside story try to enter the cinema.

At least from the real-time box office of Weird Beans, the number of box office buyers of "Prowler" has increased significantly.If it can keep the box office results of the first day, it is really possible to make the box office of the "Prowler" movie exceed one billion, and even make Dianjinmeng a small profit.

However, many people in the industry, as well as experienced users of Weird Beans, know how to check the ratings of "Prowler" by filtering the scoring criteria.

Looking at the polarization of the ratings, these professionals and seniors know that this is just the beginning.

But at this moment, an actor named Zhou Weiyi suddenly posted a Weibo on Weibo.

Zhou Weiyi: I don't like it

Although Zhou Weiyi's Weibo doesn't have @anyone, not even an object, but just look at the real-time hot searches on Weibo, everyone knows that Zhou Weiyi is saying that he doesn't like "Prowler".

Among the vast and obvious actors, there was actually a not-so-well-known actor who stood up and sang the opposite.

It's like a drop of ink dripping on white paper, so conspicuous.Discussions on Zhou Weiyi's Weibo on the Internet instantly became intense.

Zhou Weiyi usually has only 2 comments on a Weibo, but within half an hour, the number of replies on this "I don't like" Weibo directly exceeded 300!

More importantly, the netizens in the comment area are divided into two extreme camps.

One of them is mainly Zhou Weiyi's original fans and some viewers who have watched the "Prowler" movie.

"Finally, it's finally time for someone to stand up and tell the truth."

"When I saw so many stars and so many film critics praised the movie "Prowler", I thought it was because my aesthetics were incompatible with this world. It seems that there are still people who think the same as me."

"A bad movie is a bad movie, no matter how much you praise it, it's still a bad movie."

Of course, there are more people who are satirizing Zhou Weiyi.

"An actor who doesn't know how many lines, in order to gain popularity, will do anything."

"Are you eligible to participate in "The Prowler"? Have you won any awards? How dare you comment on other people's best director and actor's works."

"Who gave you such a big face, let you evaluate "Prowler". It's really ugly people who make a lot of trouble."

These mocking voices clearly had the upper hand, who made Zhou Weiyi just a small actor?

And "The Prowler" is now having a lot of controversy on the Internet. Fans of the participating actors will be working hard to control the comments on the entire Internet.But now Zhou Weiyi, as a young bird, is naturally their main target of attack.

As long as the first person who happened was killed, the next person would not dare to speak anymore.

At the same time, Dianjinmeng Company and Jiang Deshan also made moves.The embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by an ant's nest, and now there must be no loopholes in public opinion. No matter how much money is spent, the evaluation of the film's release period must be supported first.

As a professional public relations team, Dianjinmeng's entry point is much more vicious.

"I probably know why Zhou Weiyi said that he doesn't like "The Prowler". This is obviously wagging his tail at Qin Yan. Isn't Qin Yan going to make some new movie? He obviously hopes to get an audition opportunity. This kind of The shameless and humble appearance is really disgusting."

"Zhou Weiyi, do you know that your behavior is really like a dog, trying to curry favor with your master?"

"I used to think that Qin Yan's actions were upright, but I didn't expect Qin Yan to be such a villain who stabs a knife in the back. I'm so disappointed."

"I guess there are still many actors who will show their favor to Qin Yan. These people really don't want the bottom line for a chance to be famous."

Under the comments and likes of Shui Jun, these few comments immediately became the most popular comments. It seems that this is the "mainstream view".

Even "Zhou Weiyi speaks for Qin Yan" has become a hot search on the homepage, which made many onlookers who had a certain ability of independent thinking immediately change their first impression, thinking that Zhou Weiyi is a flattering speculator.

How can there be so many people who can guarantee independent thinking? Everyone is just a rabble who is coerced by public opinion.

Originally, many actors couldn't understand Golden Dream Company's crazy promotion of the bad movie "Prowler".It would be an unfortunate thing for the industry and for them personally if this kind of traffic method is always used to forcibly prop up the movie's evaluation score.

Especially those who are passionate about movies, they really don't want big companies to control the evaluation power of movies forever.

It's just that they didn't dare to be the first bird. Originally, Zhou Weiyi was in front of him to attract firepower. They had already begun to consider whether to express their own comments.

However, the siege of Zhou Weiyi by these netizens and sailors made them stop immediately, not daring to act rashly.

Now as long as he speaks, he will be labeled as "Qin Yan's running dog".

Although Zhou Weiyi replied directly on his Weibo: "I have never had any interaction with director Qin Yan, I just comment on "Prowler"."

"I also like the producer of "The Prowler". It is precisely because I like him that I am disappointed now. Without any director, I will be able to make a good movie. Before you criticize me, can you go to Watch a movie?"

In fact, what Zhou Weiyi said was impressive enough, but no matter how he explained it, he couldn't compete with the "public opinion" that had already formed a torrent.

What's more, human beings always like to portray public figures as extreme existences, either extremely noble or extremely humble.

Now Zhou Weiyi has undoubtedly become the latter. When he "appears" moral taint, what he does is wrong.

It can only be said that Jinmeng's propaganda methods are really clever.

If we only debate with Zhou Weiyi based on the quality of "Prowler", it is very likely that more and more people will have the right to comment.

The quality of "Prowler", Dianjinmeng company knows best.If they were not guilty, how could they take the initiative to avoid the most popular Spring Festival stalls, and avoid the "Hou Yi" that Huayan Company has been honing their swords for two years?

Dianjinmeng is trying to make all the negative comments on "Prowler" essentially become malicious comments.

As long as Zhou Weiyi was defined as an actor who begged Qin Yan for an audition, other actors would not dare to make any comments.

Under the condition that these professionals cannot speak, it is too simple for Dianjinmeng to manipulate the public opinion of ordinary people.

On the other hand, they dare to do such public relations because they think that Qin Yan will definitely not make any comments on this matter.

Now everyone is saying that Zhou Weiyi stood up and said bad things about "Prowler" because he wanted to curry favor with Qin Yan.At this time, if Qin Yan was smarter, he would definitely choose to stand by and prove his innocence.

And if Qin Yan appears, no matter what they say, they can define it as "Qin Yan is a guilty conscience".

It can only be said that the PR department of Jinmeng Company is really smart. By attacking Zhou Weiyi, they completely blocked the mouths of other actors and Qin Yan, and now even the hidden dangers were eliminated.

one stone two bird.

Dianjinmeng's public relations department is already calculating the year-end bonus, and they are proud of coming up with such a public relations plan.

However, the facts have proved that Qin Yan should never be judged by ordinary people's thinking.It is often said that in the world of adults, there is no right or wrong, only conflicts of interest.

This sentence is obviously not applicable to Qin Yan.

Qin Yan, who hadn't surfed the Internet and hadn't seen the road for hundreds of years, suddenly posted a Weibo, and there were two Weibos in a row!

Fans who had always set Qin Yan as special attention were stunned when they heard the phone vibrate.Isn't it Labor Day?How come the new year begins again.

On the first Weibo, Qin Yan directly @周伟伊.

"I've watched the TV series you used to make, and your acting skills still need to be honed. Some people say you don't have masterpieces, say you don't have acting skills? Why don't you come to my place and try, let's make a movie together and teach these people what it is It’s a good movie. @周伟伊”

When this Weibo came out, the whole Weibo became a complete sensation. Countless people witnessed Qin Yan posting the second Weibo with their own eyes.

Qin Yan: I don't like "The Prowler".

They thought about Qin Yan's ten thousand counterattacks, and the most exaggerated guess was that Qin Yan was discussing the film evaluation system, thus implicitly expressing their dislike for Dianjinmeng Company.

But they didn't expect that Qin Yan would directly call out Zhou Weiyi, and would directly name the "Prowler" movie!This is completely slapping "Prowler" and Dian Jinmeng in the face, and it is slapping.

Jiang Deshan started throwing things in the office again: "You trash, how did you promise me? Didn't you say that Qin Yan would never respond? Come up with a solution for me, or get out of here."

When Dianjinmeng was in chaos, let the time go back an hour.

Immediately after Zhou Weiyi posted on Weibo, many people in the circle called him and sent messages asking what was going on.

Several good friends were persuading him: "The water is too deep this time, so don't dip into this pool of water lightly."

Of course, some people also asked side-by-side: "Have you already hooked up with Director Qin?"

"Brother, if you have the opportunity to audition, please introduce it to me."

Zhou Weiyi has repeatedly stated that he has no such thoughts at all, and he simply cannot stand the false propaganda and manipulation of public opinion of the "Prowler" movie.

If other actors dared to say such things on a public platform, they would have been scolded to death by his manager.

But Zhou Weiyi's manager actually has the same personality as Zhou Weiyi, the two of them really can't get used to these dirty things.Otherwise, with Zhou Weiyi's acting skills, he wouldn't have been suppressed by the industry in recent years.

The subsequent harassment really upset Zhou Weiyi. Although he had made the decision to tell the truth, he never thought that there would be so many noisy voices, so he had no choice but to turn off his public mobile phone.

In the end, he didn't expect that even his personal mobile phone was blown up by various good friends. Zhou Weiyi really didn't want to talk to them any more. When he was about to turn off the phone, he suddenly saw a missed call.

Zhou Weiyi didn't know what he thought at the time. It stands to reason that with his mood and personality at the time, he must have hung up on the unfamiliar number, but for some unknown reason, he actually answered the phone.

A very calm boy came from the opposite side and said, "Hi, hello, is this Mr. Zhou Weiyi?"

Zhou Weiyi's first reaction at that time was that his private phone number must have been leaked by some "friend" in the circle.This should be a reporter from a certain media wanted to interview him, so Zhou Weiyi directly refused:

"Sorry, I don't want to accept any interviews for now, thank you."

Or because Zhou Weiyi felt that the other party's voice was a little bit familiar, Zhou Weiyi hung up the phone a little slower for a second, which also gave the other party a chance to speak again:

"You made a mistake. I'm not a reporter. My name is Qin Yan. It's the director Qin Yan who was rumored to instruct you to post on Weibo."

The other party's tone was a little smiley, and Zhou Weiyi's brain was completely shut down by a sentence that was obviously very relaxed.

Qin Yan!Director Qin!

Zhou Weiyi was really stunned, he never thought that Qin Yan would call him personally.Did Qin Yan see his Weibo?What is the reason why Director Qin called himself?

Although Zhou Weiyi had countless guesses in his mind, his immediate reaction was still:

"Director Qin, hello. The evaluation of the movie "Prowler" just now is completely my own behavior, and I didn't expect it to affect you. If it affects you in any way, please don't mind. On the other hand, I don't I hope that my remarks have caused any misunderstanding to you."

The implication of Zhou Weiyi's words is: I don't hope to curry favor with you through Weibo.

Zhou Weiyi's answer was really decent, which made Qin Yan on the other end of the phone more satisfied. He said:

"I also know that with your personality, you just want to say something, but this time I called to discuss two things with you."

"First of all, I want to invite you to audition for my new movie."

Unexpectedly, Qin Yan would ask him to audition, Zhou Weiyi's heart was full of enthusiasm, and even instinctively wanted to agree directly, but he still insisted on his instinct and said:

"Director Qin, what I said on Weibo was not to seek any opportunities for myself, nor was it to increase my exposure. There is no need for auditions."

Qin Yan on the other end of the phone said confidently:

"I think you may have some misunderstandings about me. I will not give anyone a chance to audition just because of flattery. I want to invite you to audition because your acting skills have reached the passing line. Of course, I am only an invitation to participate It's just an audition, and I won't give you any guarantees. If you can't compare with other actors, I won't give you any extra treatment."

Hearing this, Zhou Weiyi couldn't help feeling a little hot in his heart. Although he had repeatedly rejected Qin Yan just now, as an actor, how could he not be moved by Qin Yan's movie?

Especially since he is still an actor who is just in his early 30s and hopes to continue working hard in the film industry.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhou Weiyi said, "Then thank you Director Qin."

After Zhou Weiyi finalized the audition, Qin Yan made his second request, saying that he would use Zhou Weiyi's Weibo hot search to do something next.

Of course, Qin Yan immediately added: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to, the audition we talked about just now will not change in any way. All audition results will be judged by your acting skills."

Zhou Weiyi really liked Qin Yan's frankness, so he thought about it and agreed directly.So there is Qin Yan's current Weibo @周伟伊.

Everyone thinks that this is Qin Yan declaring war on Dianjinmeng Company, and many netizens also leave messages on Qin Yan's Weibo:

"I dont like it either."

Some viewers have already watched "The Prowler", and they feel as uncomfortable as eating shi, and urgently need to find an outlet.There are also spectators who are simply watching the excitement.

Of course, the actors and stars who were already vacillating were the ones who reacted the most. They were even more excited. They obviously regarded this as Zhou Weiyi's victory.

Many people are hating themselves for not being the first to tweet and criticize "Prowler", maybe the audition opportunity is their own.

This is also the reason why Qin Yan had to discuss with Zhou Weiyi first, because he knew that his behavior would bring Zhou Weiyi a certain reputation loss.

In just a few minutes, Weibo was completely paralyzed again.After the Weibo programmers finally repaired the server, the PR department of Dianjinmeng also came up with a countermeasure.

They issued a statement directly:

"Director Qin Yan, as a well-known director, you should have the basic ethics of a director. Movie matters should be resolved with movies, and movies should not be mixed with other miscellaneous matters."

"I know that our two companies have some differences in business philosophy, and we have had some unpleasant cooperation, but I don't think these things can be the reason for you to criticize an innocent movie."

"How about the final quality of the movie, I think the right to evaluate should be left to the public, not your family's opinion."

And in this statement, a lot of film ideas that Qin Yan had said in various public occasions were used.

For example, "Film creation should be left to the audience to judge, not the director himself to judge by himself", "Everyone has the right to evaluate movies", "Everyone's aesthetics are different, and others should be respected" and so on.

This is already the result of Golden Dreams spending millions to hire a public relations program.They have all predicted Qin Yan's possible reactions in the future.

If Qin Yan were to comment on "The Prowler", they could guide public opinion, and it could be attributed to Qin Yan's grudge against what happened in the past.

If Qin Yan directly said that he was an audience member, he would be commenting on the movie.They will say that Qin Yan has surpassed the status of an ordinary audience and is abusing his social influence to suppress his peers.

Anyway, they have considered all kinds of responses, and they think their plan is perfect.

However, Qin Yan is still the most unreasonable director in the film industry.Even after many years, this is still an anecdote that Huaguo movie fans love to talk about.

Qin Yan: "I think what you said is very reasonable. The quality of the movie should be judged by the audience."

"Everyone knows that we had some unpleasant things before, why don't we each make a movie and leave the right to comment to the audience to see what a good movie is."

"My new movie is going to start shooting in the second half of this year. If there are no accidents, the post-production can be completed in December next year."

"Within one year after the production is completed, your company can select a movie to be screened at the same time as me, and to accept everyone's review together."

"I hope that your company can really make a good movie as you said."

"I'm waiting for you."
