MTL - You Made Me a Superstar-Chapter 546 prelude

  Chapter 546 Prologue

   "Why don't they understand me?"

   "Don't they know how much I worked hard to make this movie?"

   "I studied in Hollywood for so many years, I only sleep eight hours a day, I work more than seven hours a day, and I don't even have weekends for this movie!"

   "How could they treat me like this, slander me like this?"

   "..."

  In the house.

  Wu Tong looked at a large amount of abuse on the screen against "Righteous Man".

  The swearing continued for four full days.

  At first, she scolded these netizens, and even wished to hire a "killer" to shoot some people behind the scenes...

   But gradually, she found that all this is unrealistic...

  When she cursed, someone turned her back thousands of times, and the so-called "invite a killer" is simply unrealistic...

  When she was scolded too much, she felt a sense of powerlessness, and after the powerlessness passed, her glass heart was broken.

   Anger to hysteria, followed by grievance to hysteria.

not far away…

  A middle-aged man kept comforting her, and scolded "Li Zhongjun" for being a "dog". Under the comfort of the middle-aged man, Wu Tong's mood was slightly better, but he was still crying.

  She felt that she had never been wronged so much in her life.

  She immigrated to Laomei with her parents since she was a child. With good conditions, she can often contact the upper class of Laomei and the upper class of Hollywood.

Naturally, she has been in Hollywood for many years, and she has also held some positions in many blockbuster films. If you break down her resume, her resume is even much richer than that of "Zhou Yang", and the total box office is more than Zhou Yang's current movies. Even higher!

   Having spent more time in Hollywood, I was naturally influenced by some Hollywood film art.

   I don’t know when she has immigrated, and as an authentic American, she gradually began to feel a little inferior to her own yellow-skinned identity.

  I feel that yellow skin has been synonymous with poverty, backwardness, slavery and grassroots since ancient times.

   There are no nobles in Huaxia, everyone is humble.

  It seems that since she was born, someone has been reminding her constantly, and it has even become a brand from the depths of her soul.

  Later, she watched many beautiful documentaries and movies about China.

  The Chinese people in the documentary are really humble, spitting everywhere, throwing garbage everywhere and even urinating, and even some old ladies and old ladies shouted in public in a very unqualified manner, which is quite a representative of the nouveau riche.

However, most of the Chinese people in the movie are poor, backward, barbaric, feudal, and superstitious living in dire straits and darkness, while most of the upper-class people regard human life as worthless, greedy for power, and will always be turned into a big event. Small, trivial matters.

  Since ancient times, the feeling of inferiority has gradually turned into disgust.

  But her birth cannot be changed, her skin cannot be bleached, and it is naturally unrealistic to leave her parents. In the end, she gradually accepted the reality that she has Chinese blood.

   Meanwhile, she wants Western approval!

   "Righteous Man" is such a movie that can be recognized by the West, and the top management of the DV company attaches great importance to this movie.

  So, for this movie, she not only read the original book many times, but when the movie was about to be filmed, she even went to the DV company in person to find the original manga staff and chatted for a long time.

  In the crew...

  She wholeheartedly integrated what she had learned into this movie, and hoped that she would be able to soar into the sky after filming this movie!

  Amazing special effects, passionate plot, vivid and rich humanity...

  She felt that the "Righteous Man" she filmed definitely made people like Huaxia cheer and go crazy with excitement!

   But who would have thought that…

  Huaxia's side is so unsatisfactory...

   "They themselves live in backwardness. People who are backward have a ridiculous self-esteem by nature..."

"People without manners, if you say something bad about them, or you expose something about them very objectively, they start to jump, thinking that they are not like this, that you are distorting the facts, these groups of people have been like this throughout the ages , guarding the so-called "brilliant five thousand years" culture, who knows whether these cultures were compiled or not?"

   "Xiaotong, it's okay!"

  The middle-aged man felt distressed when he saw his daughter so sad and wronged, and then comforted her daughter.

  After appeasing his daughter's emotions, he walked out of the room, his eyes suddenly became a little cold.

  When he saw the box office of "Righteous Man" in Hollywood, his face became even uglier.

   ""The Man of Righteousness" really shouldn't be released during the financial crisis..." He sighed, then pondered for a while, and finally took out his mobile phone and dialed Li Zhongjun's number.

  However, unfortunately, Li Zhongjun did not answer.

  ……………

  Once word-of-mouth collapses, many things collapse like an avalanche.

   "Righteous Man" was boycotted on many movie websites in China, and there were all kinds of abuse on the forums.

  This kind of abuse is not the same as "Lizardman".

  "Lizardman" is that the appearance of the character is uncomfortable, but no matter how well the inner core is shot, the audience wants to vomit.

  And you can't analyze this movie carefully at all. The more you analyze it carefully, the more you feel that there are all kinds of tampering and discrimination against Chinese culture in this movie, and there is even a sense of Western cultural invasion in your bones.

  The occupancy rate during the daytime on the 19th was terrible.

   Just find a theater chain and go in, only less than a quarter of the audience sits there to watch.

   And after watching it, more than half of the viewers were swearing at it, and even the few film critics who were poor at the beginning were scolded by the netizens, so they had to delete the post and make various apologies.

   But even though "The Righteous Man" is so bad, the movie is still showing.

   On the one hand, because overseas DV companies have an agreement with the major cinemas on the minimum film schedule, on the other hand, Xu Kangnian, the film director of the relevant department, insisted on keeping this "Heroes of Righteousness" against all opinions.

  An Xiao had chatted with Xu Kangnian many times, but Xu Kangnian was still unwilling to let go of his mouth and insisted that this movie did not have any romantic things. In the end, the movie could only be released for half a month.

  【Five Hollywood movies in June, affected by the financial crisis, the box office was greatly reduced. Among them, "Righteous Man" became a victim of the big era, and the box office on the first day was less than 3 million US dollars...】

  [Paramount announced: "The Orc" and "Aion" and other two films released in late June have been postponed]

  【Hollywood "Alteration" director Dyerson: The financial crisis will last for a whole year, and during this year, the financial industry and the film and television industry will be hit hard like never before...】

  【Affected by the financial tsunami in many Hollywood theaters, there are a lot fewer moviegoers than last year at the same time...】

  【"Righteous Man" will be a **** lesson. Affected by it, many Hollywood directors announced that the movie will be postponed...】

  【…】

   "Righteous Man" hit the box office overseas.

  This highly anticipated movie got such a bad result, which made the executives of the DV company speechless in anger.

At the same time, more than 30% of Hollywood filmmakers have seen the huge impact of the financial crisis on the entertainment industry through "Righteous Man", and once again deeply realized that at this time, they must not be overwhelmed, let alone forcefully follow the market. Head-to-head.

  On the night of the 19th...

  After the major theaters took out the movie list for the second half of June, everyone found that there are so many blockbuster Hollywood movies, and the movies released in the second half of June are all small-budget horror movies.

  The official announcement of "Spider-Man" will be released tomorrow, that is, on June 20th.

  But it was only announced by Xingyang’s overseas theaters, and it couldn’t cause any waves in the mainstream media in the United States.

   No congratulations, no insults, except for a group of loyal fans who unswervingly trust Zhou Yang, no one even pays attention to him on the Internet.

  The pre-sale tickets started to go on sale three days in advance, and one-third of the pre-sale tickets for the premiere show could not be sold. Even the staff of Xingyang Overseas Cinemas felt that they were going to lose their jobs soon.

  Lao Mei's place is extremely quiet.

  But Huaxia's side is full of excitement.

   "Really? At this time, why is "Spider-Man" going to be released on time?"

   "Come on! Don't be kidding... "Righteous Man" is like this, "Spider-Man" wants to challenge our ability to accept?"

   "But the pre-sale tickets are still very scary, all sold out!"

   "Nonsense, I heard that Zhou Yang invested hundreds of millions in this film, and many fans have invested in it. Zhou Yang's crazy fans are terrifying!"

   "Hey, how long can they support Zhou Yang? Zhou Yang is a bottomless pit! I heard that he is heavily in debt with overseas theaters, and now he is fighting to the death!"

   "Why do you have so little confidence in Zhou Yang? Since his debut, the movie hasn't hit the street yet!"

"It's true that you haven't rushed to the street, but have you heard what the director of Hollywood's "Alteration" Dyerson said just now? The financial tsunami has affected all walks of life. "Righteous Man" has rushed, you " Is Spider-Man really possible? And I heard that the director of "Lizardman" Colo Page is involved in it..."

   "Damn it, this guy really doesn't remember beating. Keluo Peggy was scolded to death by Hollywood a few days ago, and almost all of them were abandoned by the DV company. How dare Zhou Yang use him this week?"

   "Who knows? After a person has been successful for a long time, he will naturally become blindly confident, thinking that he can do everything!"

   "..."

online…

   In the early morning of the 20th.

   There are still eight hours until the simultaneous release of "Spider-Man" in Laomei and China!

  Countless revelations about "Spider-Man" have been presented on the Internet...

  On the Internet, almost all filmmakers feel that the box office of the premiere of "Spider-Man" in China will not be bad, but it is definitely the beginning of Waterloo.

  And "Spider-Man" was gradually kicked off amidst such bad-mouthing voices...
