It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?

Chapter 1113 The results of the game are usually not on the field!

Throughout the afternoon of the 8th, the freshly released "ban" document from the Cyberspace Administration of China was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a thousand waves and attracting the attention of everyone in the entertainment industry.

This document is undoubtedly a sudden storm for paparazzi, entertainment reporters and related studios!

For a time, those paparazzi who usually roamed around the fringes of the entertainment circle and made profits by capturing celebrity gossip and privacy all felt they were facing a formidable enemy.

You know, their work has always been testing the edge of law and morality, earning traffic and attention on the Internet by digging up celebrity scandals, privacy and other content.

And now, the sudden order from above to kill all well-known paparazzi, entertainment reporters and studios has suddenly put the "career" they have been running for many years in jeopardy.

At this moment, Zhuo Wei's Fengxing Studio was in complete chaos!

In the office area outside, a group of paparazzi were sitting together with serious expressions.

One of them was a middle-aged man with a beard, holding a mobile phone tightly in his hand, and the content of the "ban" document was clearly displayed on the screen!

He frowned, took a deep puff of his cigarette, and said, "It's all over now. All our work over the years has been in vain."

A young man wearing glasses nearby looked anxious: "What should we do? How will we make a living in the future?"

Everyone fell silent upon hearing this. With the constant sounds of chores and cursing coming from Zhuo Wei's office, the atmosphere in the studio became increasingly depressing, making it hard to breathe!

In sharp contrast to the paparazzi's anxiety, most celebrities in the entertainment industry were applauding.

The discussions and heated debates within the circle have already begun to spread widely.

"Finally, I don't have to worry about being followed and secretly photographed by paparazzi anymore. I have to be very careful every time I go out. Now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

"That's right. These paparazzi will do anything to attract attention. Some of the so-called 'revelations' are completely fabricated and have caused great damage to our reputation."

"Next time you go out to play, you don't have to worry about being secretly photographed, hehe."

"Celebrate! This is something that deserves universal celebration!"

"..."

As time went by, the news of the Cyberspace Administration of China "banning" entertainment journalists and paparazzi spread rapidly like wildfire, spreading from the entertainment circle to the entire Internet in a very short time.

On the Internet, netizens' reactions are also polarized.

Some netizens expressed support for the "ban" action, believing that the paparazzi's long-term behavior has violated the privacy rights of celebrities, excessively hyped scandals and negative news in the entertainment industry, and had a negative impact on social customs.

Some even posted directly in an emotional tone: "It's time to discipline these paparazzi. They do whatever it takes to get traffic and make the Internet a mess."

However, many netizens also expressed opposing views.

This group of people think that the entertainment industry itself has many chaos, and simply banning entertainment journalists and paparazzi cannot fundamentally solve the problem. Instead, it is suspected of "treating the symptoms but not the root cause."

"Those paparazzi who fabricated news should indeed be banned, but isn't it a bit too outrageous to just kill them with one blow now?"

"That's right. The entertainment industry is already full of chaos. Now that the paparazzi have been killed, who knows what kind of dirty things will happen in the future."

"The paparazzi who exposed Huang Xiaoming's daughter should have been severely punished, but the paparazzi should be considered to have made some contributions, right? At least they exposed a lot of chaos and let the audience and fans know about the filthiness of some stars."

"The sword of Damocles has been removed. From now on, those people in the entertainment industry will play even more exaggerated games!"

"Haha, this is really interesting. Why don't the authorities first severely punish the celebrities who made the mistake? Instead, they punish the person who exposed it? It's really hard to understand."

After waking up on the plane, Chen Fei began to lie down and eat melon.

The internet is in a complete mess right now, with some people supporting and others opposing, and both groups have their own valid reasons.

From Chen Fei's personal perspective, he is inclined to ban those paparazzi. After all, he himself has been affected.

But from a macro perspective, the withdrawal of paparazzi will undoubtedly make the filth in the entertainment industry more difficult to control.

As for the "supervision" mentioned above, it is a matter of personal opinion.

Chen Fei got out of bed, stretched, and opened the curtains to look at the scenery outside.

The melon has been eaten. Although many people on the Internet @ him, hoping that he could comment, he was not going to respond at all.

The new regulations have been issued by the higher-ups, and both the people who agree and those who disagree have their own opinions. How can they possibly form a united front?

So... let's just leave it at that and see how things develop further.

Although the paparazzi have disappeared, the public relations teams of various film and television entertainment companies have not disappeared. Whenever someone does something dirty, there are people watching behind the scenes!
So no matter when, "keeping oneself clean" is the only best way to avoid those dirty things.

After walking around the cabin for a few times, Chen Fei took out his notebook and prepared to continue drawing the storyboards for "Avengers 4".

He recently found a very good PS software that can be used to render backgrounds, which helped him a lot.

While waiting for the computer to start up, he took the opportunity to take a look at the premiere press release of "Youth".

Huayi has probably invested a lot of money, so much so that the headlines of many entertainment websites are now all about reports on "Youth".

"This morning, director Feng Xiaogang's masterpiece "Youth", which returns to the Lunar New Year season, successfully held its premiere ceremony at the Beijing Exhibition Center Theater.

The red carpet was star-studded, with Ge You, Fan Bingbing, Fan Wei, Xu Fan and other golden casts of Feng Xiaogang's classic Lunar New Year films all coming to support "Youth".

"At the premiere, director Feng Xiaogang and the main actors Huang Xuan, Miao Miao, Zhong Chuxi, Yang Caiyu, Li Xiaofeng, Wang Keru, Sui Yuan, Su Yan and others all appeared and extended a warm welcome to the guests..."

"This premiere is of great significance. Feng Xiaogang even said with emotion: After many twists and turns, Youth finally blooms tonight!"

"Huayi Brothers CEO Wang Zhonglei also said emotionally: After two months of walking on thin ice, today there is a sense of release."

"After the film was screened, the audience applauded for a long time, and many viewers had tears on their faces. Fan Bingbing was so moved that he burst into tears. He said that as a family member watching this movie today, tears kept flowing. He thanked the director for bringing us such an excellent work. Please tell your relatives and friends to go to the cinema to support it."

"Many media professionals and senior film critics have also praised Youth, believing that it is another heart-stirring masterpiece by Feng Xiaogang after Assembly... It is understood that Youth will start nationwide advance screenings on December 12 and 9, and will be released nationwide on December 10."

The computer was already turned on, and Fade Chen turned his eyes away from the phone screen.

He had previously received news that "Youth" had been sent back for revisions several times, and he didn't know what Feng Xiaogang was trying to express in the film.
The fact that it can now be released smoothly is probably the result of deleting a lot of things.

I just don’t know whether the final box office results can meet his initial expectations.

…When the plane landed in Los Angeles, it was already the 9th.

After leaving the airport, Fade Chen got in the car and headed straight for Beverly Hills.

As soon as he got home, he first reported to Liu Yifei that he was safe, then lay back on the bed and went to sleep!
After adjusting to the jet lag, I opened my eyes again and it was already the morning of the 10th in North America.

At this time, the box office results of the first day of advance screenings of "Youth" were freshly released, closing at 1511.7 million yuan.

Compared with the previous "The Thousand Faces of Dunjia", this result is much more impressive.

On Douban, movie fans directly gave it an 8-point rating, and there were quite a lot of positive comments.

"In this war, it is better to die than to be alive. In that era, it is better to be crazy than to be sober. If Liu Feng sacrifices himself in this way, he can be written into a song and become immortal in the voice of his beloved. If he continues to be crazy, Xiao Ping can dance all the time and lead the dance in the dream until she grows old..."

"I have to admit that Feng Xiaogang really put his heart into this film. This is the first time I can find a more real emotional resonance in his film. Yes, this is worthy of praise. This film is better than I Am Not Fan Jinlian."

“The story is quite watchable, from youth to cruel war and then to all disillusionment, it is quite sad. The art, costumes, photography and music are all excellent, which are all plus points. The key is that the film is very beautiful.”

"Why do I feel like a lot of things were deleted from this movie? For example: 'Psychopath'..."

"The biggest problem is that the director abstained from voting on the attitude towards the cultural troupe as the main character. So we can see that in the first half, they were portrayed as 'evildoers' who harmed the good people, and in the second half, they tried to move the audience with their reluctant farewell and nostalgic comradeship. Haha, I guess the review department must have put pressure on them, right? It's quite interesting."

Although he didn't go to see the finished film, just by reading these reviews, Chen Fei was able to roughly guess what Feng Xiaogang was ordered to rectify.

Due to national conditions, some things can be discussed and commented on casually in the United States.

But if it happens in China, we have to "pay attention to the impact"!

After breakfast, Chen Fei went straight to the company, ready to meet up with the main actors of "Ready Player One" to carry out publicity and roadshow activities.

However, before he even arrived at the company, new news appeared on the Internet.

The actor competition variety show "The Birth of the Actors", which has been criticized since its inception, has exploded!
In fact, after accompanying Liu Yifei to watch the episode where Ouyang Nana performed on stage, Chen Fei could conclude that there would definitely be uncontrollable situations later in this variety show.

And now with the end of the latest episode, as expected, the thunder finally exploded!
The reason was that actress Yuan Li was very upset because there was a big difference between her performance in the show and the final result, so she directly posted a Weibo after the latest episode ended:
"I've watched the latest episode. The interview after the show was a mess. The words were randomly photoshopped. The mentors' expressions were also random. There was only one purpose: to make the unaware audience hate me and make others think I'm a psychopath. You begged me for mercy countless times on WeChat! But then you turned around and stabbed me in the back! Okay, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, when I'm free, let's talk slowly!
And Director Wu Tong, I really like her, even though she made me "act" and I was eliminated, but it's good to be happy, isn't it..."

This Weibo post seems to be expressing the anger after being eliminated, but sharp-eyed netizens have already vaguely felt that there seems to be some unknown inside story hidden in it.

For example, the words “acting and being eliminated” look weird.

Elimination is elimination. Isn't it enough to be eliminated if you are not as skilled as others? How can there be such an operation as "acting to be eliminated"?

Under the speculation and questioning of many netizens in the comment section, the dissatisfaction that already existed in Yuan Li's heart burst out!

She then directly posted a new Weibo post, completely exposing the inside story of the program team!

"To be honest, this program has always had a pre-determined 'winner'. In order to gain ratings and advertising fees, the program team made random edits, and all kinds of inside stories, calculations, and frame-ups have emerged one after another..."

This revelation was like a bombshell, instantly causing an uproar on the Internet!
For a time, netizens began to watch and discuss.

"Haha, I was saying, what kind of performance competition variety show is this? This is a joke, let alone Yuan Li, even an award-winning actor would be eliminated."

"Who can beat the production team? They are the ones who make the rules. This show is just a show. We just need to have fun. How could Ouyang Na Na win? I laughed."

"According to my friend, the voting devices in the hands of the audience were useless. Even if they didn't press the selection button, the final result was that all 300 votes were shown as voted. If this isn't a shady operation, what else could it be?"

"The production team should really learn from Guangguang Investment's "Tomorrow's Son" variety show, which is broadcast live and fair and just. Isn't that enough?"

"The brother above is too naive. If they really do this, how can those professionally trained traffic actors win?"

"..."

This drama triggered by Yuan Li's revelations really opened the eyes of many netizens.

Looking around, people have been expressing their opinions on the Internet. Some support Yuan Li, believing that she dares to expose the dark side of the industry and is a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry.

At the same time, some people expressed their dissatisfaction on the program team’s Weibo account, accusing them of using any means necessary for profit and undermining the fairness and credibility of the program.

For a time, the popularity of the variety show "The Birth of the Actors" soared, and it even overshadowed the news about the early screening of "Youth" and the Cyberspace Administration of China banning paparazzi.

However, this kind of popularity and traffic is undoubtedly very unfavorable for a competitive variety show.

The program crew responded quite quickly!

Chen Fei had just finished the day's promotional activities and when he returned home, he saw that the production team of "The Birth of the Actors" had issued a new notice:

"We solemnly declare that the production team of The Birth of the Actors absolutely does not have the 'secret operation' that has been rumored online, and the promotion results are determined by on-site mentors and audience votes, and there will be no deliberate editing or splicing to discredit a certain person for the sake of topic hype and ratings.

Due to personal feelings, some staff members of the program team used inappropriate words in the invitation statement, which had a serious impact on Teacher Yuan Li and the program team. This was his personal work mistake. The artistic director in question has decided to resign..."

As soon as the announcement was made, the internet trolls immediately came out to clean up the program, and the program’s image was instantly saved.

Four big words appeared in Chen Fei's mind again: "Sacrifice the car to save the king!"

The artistic director in question came out to apologize and resigned, so this naturally has nothing to do with the program crew.

I have to say that this trick was really well played and it is indeed something that Zhejiang Satellite TV can do.

However, Chen Fei didn't feel much about this. After all, this was the entertainment industry! It was normal for such a situation to occur.

You know, this place is even more "outrageous" than the "Table Tennis Association" and the "Go Association".

In the latter two cases, the referee usually comes out and personally suppresses the players.

But in the entertainment industry, the referees, producers, investors and rivals are all secretly making moves. How can there be any fairness?

As the saying goes: "The outcome of the game is usually not on the field!"

This sentence couldn't be more appropriate for the variety show "The Birth of the Actors"!

This is true even in the sports world, not to mention the entertainment industry which is full of "dirt" and "filth".
