Thinker in the entertainment industry

After the initial silence, Zheng Zhiyong's ins began to post continuous - bad comments.

People who are calm and fair, or who pay attention to reasoning when speaking, will probably think for a while after seeing the video, whether Zheng Zhiyong's words make sense, where the problem is, and even if they want to condemn Zheng Zhiyong, they must prepare a set enough persuasive speech.After realizing what Zheng Zhiyong was doing, he jumped at the first time. He almost got used to swearing at others. Naturally, what he blurted out was not a good word, but it didn’t have any technical content. The better one was “It’s really shameless.” Do you know what social impact it will have?" Such "rhetorical questions" are almost all kinds of swear words that will be harmonized.

In the video, Zheng Zhiyong put on a sincere and modest look to explain his difficulties and asked for the wisdom of the masses to give guidance. The "crowds" cursed in the comment area but did not have any constructive sentences. In such a scene, no one has spoken yet. The crowd expressed a little embarrassment:

Artists and netizens seem to be very fresh when they meet this kind of rare scene, but they still feel a little uncomfortable when they see that the netizens who stand up are all the images of mad dogs jumping up and biting directly, as "the same kind".

After all, in the eyes of the vast majority of people who are already working, artists just don't study hard to go to the entertainment industry to sing and dance, and then earn a lot of money when they are still struggling at the bottom of the workplace.They also know that the competition in the entertainment industry is fierce, and it doesn't matter if they make a lot of money. Reasonably, they can't argue with an artist who "made a mistake"... Although it's not to the point of being unbearable, it feels weird.

However, no matter what they think, "irrational people are the loudest and the first to speak out, and rational people are used to silence and like hindsight", this is almost a routine, and Zheng Zhiyong's violent incident is no exception. The scolding on ins overshadowed the exclamation at the beginning, and some people began to clamor on the Internet to let him get off from "Infinite Challenge" and "showmethemoney".

Since Zheng Zhiyong's accident, the two popular programs he participated in have not expressed their opinions to the outside world. When there were calls to get off the car on the Internet, they remained silent.But the two program groups are not watching the situation and discussing whether Zheng Zhiyong will get off the car as some netizens guessed.

— They are contacting the media.

"Og, beoriginal, no matter how you look around, it's nonono."

"Crack", "crack", "crack", Zheng Zhiyong stretched out his hands and applauded, smiling: "I am more confident in cooperation now."

"The cooperation you want is to give me the part with a little melody, and give you the pure rap?" Zheng Junha asked.

Zheng Zhiyong nodded: "That's what I think."

"Are you not at all worried about getting off the show?"

Zheng Zhiyong put down the tablet in his hand, and looked directly at this senior and partner whom he had only met twice before. "I'm sorry," he said, "I know I made it difficult for the program team. I will try my best to bear any losses after the incident is over, but right now, there is really no other way."

"Okay, at this time, no one wants to ask the teacher to blame." Zheng Junhe comforted, "I was worried that your state would be affected. It would be great if you can adjust yourself. The facts of this matter are very clear. The media It’s easy to talk, but if you want to confront netizens, you have to pay attention.”

"Infinite Challenge" and Ahn Seok Joon have no complaints against Zheng Zhiyong, but they are not so strong.Zheng Zhiyong had already told the whole story about his experience before. It would be strange if a person who was hit by a drunk driving car and became disabled could be nice and angry about the "drinking on behalf of the driver". Zheng Zhiyong's anger has no problem in reason. Ahn Shuo-jun and the program crew are struggling, but they can't deny this, and because they already know what Zheng Zhiyong has experienced, besides complaining about Zheng Zhiyong's why they can't bear it a little bit, it can save a lot of trouble if they attack in a private place , I can only admit that I am unlucky.

A person with a clean life style and a good temper usually has no way to give other evaluations except when his foundation is unstable and he is touched.

It is also because of knowing the whole story, although Zheng Zhiyong is being scolded bloody now, An Shuojun does not intend to give up, but "Infinite Challenge" cannot.Now netizens don't know what happened to Zheng Zhiyong, and they all have comments like "the manager is too much, if I want to beat him up too", when they know that Zheng Zhiyong was seriously injured by drunk driving, how many people will Can you still scold? If "Infinite Challenge" really asked Zheng Zhiyong to get off the show for this reason, and Zheng Zhiyong's affairs were exposed in the future, it is guaranteed that a group of people will appear to criticize "Infinite Challenge" for being coerced by public opinion and being unreasonable. He will mention Gill Lu Hongzhe and say that "Infinite Challenge" is on the side of the drunk driver.The reputation of the National Variety Show is precious, and it cannot withstand such a loss. It is better to withstand the pressure first and wait for a comeback in the future.

"Infinite Challenge" considers the long-term reputation of the program. An Shuojun and the "showmethemoney" program team who is closely related to him consider interests. Rappers do not rely on the image of "I am wronged" to make a living. To be honest, the possibility of changing public opinion is very high. If you bow your head now, it will appear that Zheng Zhiyong is weak in the future.All in all, just like "Infinite Challenge", they also considered the impact of "Zheng Zhiyong was hit by a drunk driving and became disabled" after it was made public.

It’s just that this matter can’t be made public right now—the public is raging at the moment, and it’s the time when those people who can’t talk or see anything but their brains are active, and if they are easily made public, they may be said to be “fabricated to get rid of crimes.”What An Shuojun and "Infinite Challenge" are currently doing is to mobilize the contacts on the media side, and the requirements are not high: I don't ask you to speak for anyone, just don't make up fake news and tell the truth.

In fact, the media don’t have much room to play except for the headlines. There is a video of the beating scene. The specific process was released by the police. Zheng Zhiyong’s response is placed on the ins. Those who want to watch can watch it by themselves, so Zheng Junhe will say “ The media are easier to talk about.” The matter itself is so clear that it is not easy to edit it, so it’s better to sell personal favors.

Both "Infinite Challenge" and "showmethemoney" intend to protect Zheng Zhiyong, and there is no "hostile force" contacting the media to make trouble. In the end, there is only one problem left:

Zheng Zhiyong don't play around with himself.

But that possibility is actually very low. Zico's agent made a mistake in the attempted drunk driving. This incident made a group of people think that Zheng Zhiyong was "excusable" and kept silent. "Although the person being beaten is at fault, but the beating is too much", I can't utter such fierce words on the Internet. Until now, Zheng Zhiyong has been caught cursing wildly. If it wasn't for the habit of scolding artists on the Internet People, if it weren’t for the people who couldn’t bear to be offended, so they were so angry because of Zheng Zhiyong’s rhetorical question, these people are far away from the level where the two program groups can’t withstand the pressure—”Infinite Challenge” confidence Thick, as for "showmethemoney", they have always been thick-skinned.

In any case, given that Koreans usually scold any artist for drunk driving, Zheng Zhiyong only needs to be logical when dealing with it, and he will not commit "public anger" in the true sense, otherwise there will be many people I'm going to slap myself.

These are long-term considerations, and the effect will not be seen for a while. After Zheng Zhiyong finished diss practice and sent a video, he put this matter on hold for the time being, and started to continue to improve what he will use in "Infinite Challenge". s song.Although, by the way, I also taught Zheng Junhe, who came to "visit", a few lines of the chorus part of the previous round of the team's collaboration.Zheng Junhe personally likes "Turtle Ship" the most, but "Turtle Ship" is full of rap choruses. He obviously has indigestion, and "og" with a little melody is better. Zheng Zhiyong started "teaching" from this aspect .

It is useless to be anxious. There is too much information in a day, and many people need to calm down.

"This is a harsh era. People who are used to transcending reason/pain are the first to understand that they are powerless to shake the present/maybe change the future. Believe in being sober/have an era of tolerance."

"Is this the word you intended to give me?"

"It's our collaboration song, the rap is mainly for me", Zheng Zhiyong replied, "I will ask the pd, if it is not suitable, you can change it."

"Infinite Challenge" doesn't require Zheng Zhiyong to do things he can't accept, and Zheng Zhiyong can't casually cause trouble for the program crew, it's not hard to reach a consensus on this point.

"People who do hip-hop dare to say anything." Zheng Junhe, who has lived to the middle of forties, said with emotion.

"Because of being sought after, it is also limited," Zheng Zhiyong said with a smile, "this is still very fair."

"Not everyone can understand what you say, and those who can understand don't have the heart to listen."

"I understand that sometimes, I don't want to think too deeply myself."

"Now I don't know whether to say you are smart or reckless, forget it", young people have their own ideas, Zheng Junhe does not believe that the latecomers will not be as stubborn as the predecessors if they eat a few grains of rice, so I don't want to say anything more about it. In comparison, there is another thing that deserves more attention, "What you said in the video means that you will do something like drunk driving, right?"

"If I were the person involved, it would be difficult to control myself. I don't want to lose control and cause trouble to everyone like now, but I will not be ashamed of the loss of control itself."

"Don't worry, I'm friends with them, but I don't want to help relatives." Seeing Zheng Zhiyong's serious expression, Zheng Junhe slowed down his tone. He sympathized with Zheng Zhiyong's experience and didn't want to be too aggressive. "I understand how you feel".

"Thank you."

Although Zheng Zhiyong said to Kim Tae-ho that he was trying to look at drunk driving from a high-level perspective, in the final analysis, Zheng Zhiyong just wanted to let himself not be confined by the past and hatred, and completely stand on the side of the drunk driver. Looking at things from a different standpoint, he doesn't have much motivation.

This is due to his personal circumstances. Others will also be affected by experiences and emotions, and it is difficult to be completely fair. Zheng Zhiyong couldn't think of what to say to Zheng Junhe for a while, because he learned this truth from Park Jay Bum three years ago. I realized it deeply.

"Would you like to listen to Tablo's radio station?" Zheng Junha, who started to ask Zheng Zhiyong halfway and couldn't bear it, suggested, "Maybe some viewers will leave a message to ask you."

tablo is the producer of Zheng Zhiyong's team, zico is the person involved in the violence, and Park Jae-bum is Zheng Zhiyong's friend. Although many people don't know it, there is an uproar on the Internet because of Zheng Zhiyong's uploaded video. Tonight It seems that the radio show will also be very lively.

"it is good."

Zheng Zhiyong said.

On July 2015th, 7, "thinker" stayed at the top of the hot search list for a whole day.Violence broke out in the morning, and the police notified the cause in the afternoon. Immediately afterwards, thinker opened an ins and uploaded a video, but it was not common to apologize. Many people left messages under the news and ins, and talked about it in various forum chat groups. People, much more than the former.

At this time, "Tablo's Dream Radio", which was going on as usual, completely hit the gun.

Why is the radio station still a hip-hop special today, why is Park Kyung’s birthday on July 7th, thinker, why are you so busy and you still have to go to a birthday party, why...

Looking at the frantic scrolling of messages on the screen in front of him, Tablo, who had established the image of Tucao Emperor in "showmethemoney", was also frantically swiping the screen.

This episode of "Tablo's Dream Radio" is visible, which means that those who participated in the recording process have no way to communicate in private and choose words.But before the camera was turned on, Jay Park delivered a notice to them:

If you are not familiar with him, keep silent. I told Zico about this.

As one of the parties involved, it is impossible for Zico to disregard the relationship. Park Jae-bum is because of his superior position. He is familiar with the parties and has nothing to do with this matter. There are some things that Zheng Zhiyong and Zico are inconvenient to say. Van could tell.

As for the specific coping strategies, Zico is "keeping a low profile", while Tablo and Jay Park are "not taking it seriously".

The specific execution method is that tablo responded to the flood of messages shortly after the radio station started recording: I know that everyone is very concerned about one thing, but it is not easy to talk about hip-hop with so many powerful rappers I don't want things to be misled by other topics, so can I put this matter behind?

The general idea is like this, if it is not for the hype of radio programs, there will be no hype. This kind of gimmick, which is similar to speculation of audience ratings, will definitely cause some not so positive associations, and then be scolded.

After Ming said, the people present started chatting, except that Zico's words obviously decreased, everyone's behavior was very normal, just like today's calm and no one named "thinker" turned the public opinion upside down.But the fact of Zheng Zhiyong actually happened, so their reaction can be explained in another way:

It's not a big deal.

When we came back from a break in the middle of the chat, Tablo selected a few messages from the accumulated nearly [-] messages, and then said: "Now everyone is very concerned about thinker's affairs, do you have any comments?"

Naturally, it was Zico's turn to speak at this time, and what he said was nothing new, just two words - apology.

Zico is also unlucky, he still has a layer of idol status, he is not as reckless as Zheng Zhiyong, and a gaffe in an interview in Thailand in the year of his debut almost ruined the group's career as an artist. Since then, Zico has become more cautious.Originally, he didn't have much time except for activities on the ground and underground, and almost all of this time was used to write songs. It seemed that nothing major would happen. Who would have thought of going to a friend's birthday party, but unexpectedly got involved in a violent incident.

On one side is the manager and on the other side is the friend. The manager almost drove drunk, and the friend punched the manager. Drunk driving is wrong, and supporting violence is not okay.But this matter is closely related to him and can even be said to be caused by him, Zico can't even keep silent.

Because I was tired and didn't want to drive tired, I found a broker to drive for me. As a result, when I was sleepy, one wanted to hide everyone from drinking and driving, and the other got angry and fought in the street. In fact, Zico, who had nothing to do, still wanted to express his opinion. Be careful not to be a human being inside or outside, it is enough to be wronged.

Zheng Zhiyong's response to some extent also increased the degree of Zico's "inside and outside is not human", the reason is no other, the reason why Zheng Zhiyong refused to admit his mistake was nothing more than "that kind of person deserves a beating", and being beaten No matter how wrong the person is first, he is also Zico's agent, and because of Zheng Zhiyong's obstruction, he has not caused any real losses. Although Zico doesn't think so, he has to take into account those colleagues who think so.

Right and wrong, justice and human feelings are not easy to be clear all the time.

Zheng Zhiyong also knew that he was in a dilemma, so he didn't ask him much. He just warned Zico that if someone wants to make up a story, don't follow him. You can say anything else. The basis of public judgment must be the truth of the matter. Zheng Zhiyong will not budge on this. , if anyone wants to play tricks, Zheng Zhiyong has no choice but to take out the recording Zhang Xiansheng gave him and use it.

After the Thailand incident, Zico, who was used to speaking cautiously in front of the camera, thought over and over again, and finally came up with the following set of rhetoric:

I didn't pay attention to the manager's drunk driving at the time. I was very surprised that Zheng Zhiyong would do it. I almost didn't realize it. The incident was caused by me driving past. I also feel very sorry for the trouble in the end...

What else can he say?He didn't do anything in the first place!Not commenting on the actions of Zheng Zhiyong and his agent, just apologizing, is the best way to protect yourself now.

It is really not easy for zico to come to the present without a background and with constant twists and turns. He was indeed innocent and involved in this incident. Zheng Zhiyong had expressed his understanding in the previous contact for his prudence and self-defense. The rappers didn't criticize too much.

However, understanding belongs to understanding, and the way different people choose to act is still different.For example, Jay Park intends to stand up and say a few words, although he can be said to have nothing to do with this matter.

"Thinker is a very emotional person, don't look at his calm look, it's because he feels that it is not good to affect others when he loses control," Park Jae-bum said in a tone of "let me tell you a gossip", It seems to be breaking the news for those who want to know thinker but have no channels, "He will still blow up when he encounters some particularly sensitive things-thinker told me that."

"Sensitive to what? I can't see it at all." Paloalto, who also participated in the show, asked. He is really unfamiliar with Zheng Zhiyong, so it is appropriate to ask a question at this moment.

"Basically, it's all related to his past experiences. When he figured it out, he calmed down. If he couldn't figure it out, he always cared." Jay Park paused, and then said, "Sometimes I think he is too sensitive, but he was caught drunk driving. After the collision, I am very sensitive to drunk driving, and it seems to be acceptable."

Jay Park's tone was casual, as if he was really thinking about whether it was a reasonable result for Zheng Zhiyong to become like this after being hit by a drunk driving car.The real purpose is to reveal a little bit of air. Being hit by a drunk driving car will appear deliberate at this time because it is too coincidental, and "hitting" is different.There are too many traffic accidents caused by drunk driving, and the number of victims is really not a small number.

"Huh? No wonder." Paloalto said.

Knowing the consequences of drunk driving after being hit, it is reasonable to react more to such problems.

Lizhongke who gradually emerged on the Internet also think so.Those who thought that Zheng Zhiyong's reaction was too big even though the manager was wrong, almost all changed their minds at this time.When people judge things, they are often used to bring the background. "Almost got drunk driving" and "was hit by drunk driving and almost got drunk driving" are not of the same nature.

In addition to the fact that more people felt that Zheng Zhiyong was justifiable, Jay Park's revelation also had an unexpected effect: a bunch of victims of drunk driving accidents came out to speak out.

The general sentence pattern is: How dangerous is drunk driving? I was driving drunk because of the driver...he came to help the driver and didn’t say anything after drinking. If Thinker was not sensitive enough, let him drive drunk. Take the car The lives of the people on the road and the people on the road are not taken seriously, even punching him a few times?

Zheng Zhiyong is a public figure, and he has no pressure to scold, but the trolls can't find a way to deal with the accusations of this group of drunk driving victims.

"In a country with a strong alcohol culture and poor road conditions, many people are potential drunk drivers, and many people have already been victimized by drunk driving." Li Yuanhao analyzed the change of public opinion in this way, "The latter has a moral advantage in the debate , the former will not be reconciled, but can only hold back temporarily."

"Does no one doubt the authenticity of 'being hit by a drunk driving'?" Of course Li Yuanzhu thought that Zheng Zhiyong didn't have to lie about it, but the group of people who scolded Zheng Zhiyong didn't doubt it either?

"People who are victims of drunk driving are not so rare." Li Yuanhao said.

Although the Internet can enable children like Li Yuanzhu to have good insights at a young age, but the news on the Internet has its emphasis and limitations, and one cannot fully expect the experience in real life. Li Yuanhao gave his sister a real-life example Example: "There is a girl in the history department of our school who occasionally works underground. You are interested in rappers this time, so I asked her first. Guess what, she participated in the third season of "Show Methemoney"."

"Ah? Who is it? Was it eliminated and not broadcast?"

"No, there is no comparison. There was an accident at home while the audition was queuing, and my mother was hit by a drunk driving car. She rushed to the hospital and didn't participate in the competition—do you think this is a coincidence?"

Li Yuanzhu shook his head.

This was an accident, but it also shows that it is not so strange to find victims of drinking and driving from around.

"And there is no need for others to make up stories for him." The "others" Li Yuanhao mentioned is Park Jae-bum who said on the radio that "thinker was hit by a drunk driver". Evidence, like an accident report or something."

No one questioned Jay Park's words, which means that the matter has changed from the initial "thinker beating people on the street" to "a thinker who was hit by a drunk driving car beating a drunk driver on the street". become completely different.Ask yourself, not many people will be able to criticize and educate the driver who almost made him drink and drive in a good voice when encountering such a situation.There are still a few people who insist that "it is an incorrect trend to use violence to solve problems", or say that Zheng Zhiyong has a bad attitude in the face of public criticism, but they all have a taste of nitpicking, and they cannot make a big battle.

This created a somewhat embarrassing situation: Zheng Zhiyong had an accident, was scolded, posted a video and refused to apologize and asked those who scolded him to point out his mistakes, and then...then the netizen group finally failed to say anything about him, rationalists The conclusion drawn after taking the lead is "excusable circumstances, not a big deal."

Some netizens who have become a habit of trolling artists are a little bit blocked at this time, and then decided to watch the third episode of "showmethemoney", maybe they can find something to scold Zheng Zhiyong?

Zheng Zhiyong's incident had a reason, and Park Jae-bum's words made him more "excusable". The drunk driving victims came forward to speak out, and the rational ones also began to make peace. It was still pressed. "Infinite Challenge" and "showmethemoney" spoke one after another on the second day. This incident will not affect Zheng Zhiyong's appearance in the two programs, which marks that Zheng Zhiyong has temporarily passed this crisis.

In addition to lamenting, the media also wrote some politically correct words, such as regarding the process of "the outbreak of the incident - Zheng Zhiyong's questioning - public discussion - choosing tolerance" as a "victory of reason", and intentionally or unintentionally ignored the jumping foot The group of people who shouted "artists can't be so arrogant".No matter how powerful the Internet mob is, there must be a valid reason. Once it really becomes a "mob", it cannot be accommodated. Tablo's questioned academic qualifications can be regarded as the most tragic case of an artist being persecuted by cyber violence in recent years, but at least a group of people are fabricating evidence and spreading rumors instead of just shouting "the artist cannot have a Stanford degree", although they think in their hearts This is it.There is no room for rumors about Zheng Zhiyong's matter. Even though there are many people in the mainstream who think Zheng Zhiyong's attitude is a bit arrogant, they also understand that if a drunk driving victim hits a drunk driving driver a few times, or an artist makes a mistake after making a mistake. If you ask everyone "what's wrong" and destroy that person, the word "mass" will definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame, and it will become an excellent example for neighboring countries to mock South Korea's Internet environment.

But Zheng Zhiyong still has a loss, and it's not small-he has a group of antis who stare at him and want to find fault with him, and there are spectators who are unhappy because an artist dares to ask the crowd back.The people who are still scolding him on the Internet are not going to be popular for the time being because of their mob looks, but Zheng Zhiyong's reputation in the public opinion is just average. If something happens to him again, the blame will probably be even more turbulent than it is now.

Oh, and also, Zheng Zhiyong's current "fans" have also undergone a change of blood.Take Li Yuanzhu's kakao group as an example. In the past two days, some people who were attracted by Zheng Zhiyong's face, voice and temperament, and now unable to bear Zheng Zhiyong's sharpness and toughness, came again. Like Lee Won Joo, new fans who are fascinated by Jung Ji Yong's courage to ask the public.

This is not a bad thing, Li Yuanzhu thought, looking for those who are "perfect" and can't find faults anywhere, some idols meet the requirements, Zheng Zhiyong is such a rare existence, the most suitable ones are obviously those who have a rebellious mentality towards blindly conforming to the crowd people.

But it is too dangerous to take such a path, and Li Yuanzhu is not without worries about it. Among other things, if Zheng Zhiyong commits something again, even if it is only a small negligence, there will definitely be "how is it now that he was thick-skinned on the Internet?" ?” sarcasm. The third episode of "showmethemoney" was aired on the second day after the violence broke out, that is, on the night of July 7th, and it was committed against the wind. Li Yuanzhu had some expectations that the program group would edit out Zheng Zhiyong's weight For some, although she really wanted to see Zheng Zhiyong, she didn't want to let the antis find a point to attack Zheng Zhiyong.

On the evening of July 2015, 7, the third episode of "showmethemoney" was aired amidst the expectations and concerns of fans, the eagerness of antis and the great interest of viewers.A brief replay of the 10-minute performance of the second round was made. The fact that Zheng Zhiyong chose Vernon was already released in the second episode, but what happened at that time was put in the second episode by the program group that is used to being secretive. Two episodes.

In any case, thinker's choice of Vernon is picking a weak persimmon... The antis who have studied the show a little bit are gearing up, and they are ready to start talking about Zheng Zhiyong's harsh words.

Zheng Zhiyong on the screen: "Vernonxi is probably fully prepared for being 'dissed', but I will not diss him. If my guess is correct, please adjust your status in time."

anti: Oh, you don't play your cards according to the routine.

People who have a sharp-mouthed impression of Zheng Zhiyong because of the righteousness and strictness in the video are getting more and more disappointed watching this episode of "showmethemoney". Although Zheng Zhiyong is in front of Vernon Frankly speaking, the result of this game is basically determined, but there is no embarrassment at all when they cooperate, but they try their best to make the cooperation effect of the two people as good as possible.

Apart from speaking directly, I can't seem to find any problems, and what he said is correct...

Let's look at the rap duel part again.

"Show Methemoney" broadcast on the cable TV station, the ratings of the first episode were 1.548%, the ratings of the second episode were 1.756%, and the ratings of the third episode, Zheng Zhiyong and Vernon had a one-on-one part, and the ratings reached 3.283 %.Since cable television stations pay to watch, the number of viewers cannot be compared with that of wireless stations. Considering the number of viewers and converting such ratings to wireless stations, it is close to 15% of the audience.

As the ratings of a talent show aimed at young people, this is quite an astonishing figure.
