America is in control

Chapter 247: Frequent Situations and Movie Releases

"John, this is William Ball, the host of "Celebrity Chat". He will take care of you later."

Yang Zhiyuan took Liu Jiang and the three of them to a studio. He pointed at a middle-aged white man and introduced them.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. John"

"Just call me John."

The two shook hands and chatted for a while, before William excused himself and left to work on the column.

"Jerry, is your program co-produced with CBS?"

Liu Jiang looked at the big man playing with the camera in the studio. The man was wearing a vest with the letters CBS on it.

"Yes, Yahoo lacks experience in producing TV columns and has no broadcast channels, so it can only"

Yang Zhiyuan nodded, with a complicated expression on his face. He was very tired during this period.

Preparing a TV column may not sound difficult, but when you actually get started, you will realize what it means to have so many clues.

"You made a wise choice, time is money! If it were me, I would also find a TV station to cooperate with."

Liu Jiang praised the other party. It was precisely because of the help of CBS that this column could be released so quickly.

He values ​​seizing the opportunity more than sharing part of the profits, which is more in line with his interests.

"John, let's get down to business! "Celebrity Chat" is a Q&A column where all questions are raised by netizens."

"The backstage staff will first screen out some of the issues that are obviously out of bounds and then project them on the big screen."

"The host will conduct a second selection and select some appropriate questions to invite you to answer."

"If you have any taboo issues, you can communicate with William in advance."

Yang Zhiyuan briefly introduced the column process, which was quite satisfactory and similar to other interview columns.

It's just that the people asking the questions were replaced by American netizens with strange brains.

"The process is set up reasonably and I have no objections."

"Jerry, I have prepared a list of taboo questions in advance. Please give it to William later."

General Liu nodded, asked Kate to take out the list he carried with him, and handed it to Jerry Yang.

Yang Zhiyuan took the list and looked through it carefully. He found no problems and accepted it.

"John, if there is an emergency later, don't worry, William will be responsible for the rescue, you just need to cooperate with him!"

He warned General Liu again.

"no problem!"

Liu Jiang vowed to the other party.

After the two chatted for a few more words, Yang Zhiyuan led the three of them towards the center of the studio.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the first show of "Celebrity Talk" officially started.

"Welcome to everyone to watch "Celebrity Chat", the first celebrity text interactive column jointly created by Yahoo and CBS TV. I am the host William Ball."

""Celebrity Chat" is a Q&A column. In each issue, some celebrities will be invited to interact with netizens in real time."

"This time we have invited a very young boxing superstar to be the first guest of "Celebrity Chat"."

"He is a 'trendsetter' on the Internet! He is passionate about environmental protection! He also made a Hollywood movie"

"Let us welcome the first unified welterweight title of the four major organizations, the holder of the WBA/WBC/WBO middleweight gold belt, the new Caesar, John!"

William sat behind the studio and spoke impassionedly at the opening of the column.

As soon as he finished speaking, General Liu took Cate Blanchett and Jude Law out of the background and came to the stage.

"Wow! Look at our boxing champion, he even brought two 'bodyguards' to the show! Is he so timid?"

William had an exaggerated expression, danced and shouted.

Liu Jiang and the three of them walked while saying hello to the audience.

"Hey, William, what were you talking about just now? I'll give you another chance to reorganize the language!"

Liu Jiang followed the pre-set stage, deliberately raised his fists, and pressed towards the opponent with eager eyes.

"Boxer, I was wrong! Let us welcome the heroes and heroines of "Searching for the Midnight Kiss," Jude Law and Cate Blanchett."

William raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, his expression extremely exaggerated.

Liu Jiang held his head high, lowered his fists, and showed an expression that shows you are wise.

Behind him, Kate covered her mouth and chuckled, and Jude Law also looked like he couldn't help laughing.

The audience in the audience cooperated very well, applauded one after another, and burst into laughter.

The effect was achieved, and William naturally put down his hands, with a slightly more serious expression on his face.

He stretched out his right hand towards General Liu, and the two shook hands gently and hugged again.

The same goes for Cate Blanchett and Jude Law.

After the walk, William asked the three of them to sit down on the sofa.

After a brief exchange, "Celebrity Chat" got down to business.

"Three of you, let's look at the big screen together. I think netizens can't wait!"

William controlled the rhythm. He waved his hand, circled three times in mid-air, and pointed at the big screen beside everyone in a somewhat exaggerated manner.

The big screen instantly activated and lit up. Questions appeared one after another from the upper part of the screen and began to fall downwards, like furry bear cubes.

Once the question reaches the bottom edge of the screen, it disappears.

"stop!"

After waiting for a while, William waved his hand and shouted, and the scrolling big screen paused.

"Which question should I choose? This is it! It looks interesting!"

William stretched out his finger, made random gestures around the big screen, and finally pointed to the lower right corner.

Then, he turned his head and looked at General Liu.

"John, a netizen asked you, is there really an unspoken rule like red couches in Hollywood?"

The expression on Liu Jiang's face did not change at all, but he was cursing in his heart.

Why did you increase the intensity from the beginning? Is there any need to talk about the red sofa? I understand everything! But you can’t mention it openly!

His mind was spinning rapidly and he answered unhurriedly.

"First of all, thank you very much for this netizen's question. I can only answer this question based on what I know."

“As a producer new to Hollywood, I didn’t notice this phenomenon!”

William was observing General Liu's expression with great interest, looking forward to his answer.

Hearing General Liu's calm answer, a gleam flashed in his eyes.

This guy is young, but he seems quite experienced in dealing with emergencies.

Several viewers in the audience were not very satisfied with General Liu's answer and booed a few times. But these boos did not affect the four people on the stage at all. William waved his hand, and the questions on the big screen started scrolling again.

"Stop! That's a good question, and I want to know the answer too."

"John, still about you, a netizen asked, as a boxer, why don't you make a movie like "Rocky"?"

William smiled and looked at General Liu, signaling for him to answer.

"It's always been a dream of mine to make a movie like Rocky, but I haven't found the right script yet, so..."

General Liu showed a trace of regret on his face and said helplessly.

"John, your own experience is a very inspiring story. You can definitely adapt it into a movie!"

A male audience member in the audience suddenly shouted loudly.

"That's right! That's how it should be!"

"John, if you make a movie about your own experience, I will definitely go to the cinema to support you!"

"It's better if it's you!"

The scene immediately burst into cheers and applause.

William also clapped his hands in cooperation and said loudly.

"John, do you hear the audience? They want to see a movie about you!"

Liu Jiang stood up and waved to the audience with a look of emotion on his face.

"Thank you very much for your love. I will include this autobiographical film in my plans."

"But now my boxing journey is not over yet, I have to climb one peak after another!"

"I still have a lot to learn about filmmaking, and I promise everyone that I will make this film in the best possible way."

"I hope everyone will continue to support me and the movie "Looking for the Midnight Kiss"!"

The audience burst into warm applause again.

After the atmosphere at the scene cooled down slightly, William waved again, and the questions on the big screen continued to scroll.

"Stop! I have to choose a question about ladies this time."

"Kate, a netizen asked you, are you really willing to date a friend you met online and a stranger in real life?"

William looked at Cate Blanchett with a smirk on his face.

After Liu Jiang heard this question, he felt a little relieved. The other party finally chose the question raised by the 'sitter' he hired.

Cate Blanchett looked at the camera, showed a charming smile, and said elegantly.

"Maybe I wouldn't have made such a bold attempt before I participated in "Looking for a Midnight Kiss," but now, Why Not? (Why not?)"

"The Internet is a magical existence. When surfing the Internet, I can do whatever I want, and I can express my true inner emotions at will."

"Meeting friends on the Internet is like a wonderful journey, both romantic and mysterious! When fate comes, just do it bravely, otherwise I'm afraid I will regret it when I get old!"

Cate Blanchett's answer won a round of applause. Most of the audience were young people. Who wouldn't have some wild thoughts in their hearts?
Of course, her answer was prepared in advance, and the language was carefully woven with the purpose of arousing resonance in the hearts of young people.

Want to be a little wild? Then go watch "Looking for the Midnight Kiss"! It has everything in the movie, including teaching and skills!

While promoting the movie, I also help AuctionWeb attract some users. This is called picking up girls at the same time!

"Kate, your answer is perfect! Freedom above all else!"

William gave Kate a thumbs up, waved his hand, and continued to select questions.

"Stop! Wow! What did I see! This question is quite strange!"

"John, a netizen asked you a question. Your movie and "Evita" starring Madonna have been competing fiercely in the media recently. If Madonna asked you to go on a date at this time, would you agree?"

After saying that, William almost couldn't help laughing.

General Liu also has a headache. What kind of brain circuit is this! Is there any connection between movie competition and dating? What a bullshit!
Even if there was no such thing as movie competition, he would not fall in love with that old woman Madonna.

"I respect Madonna very much. She is the pride of all Italians. She occupies an extremely important position in the history of pop music and has achieved very brilliant achievements."

"There are a lot of single men in America who want to win over Madonna, and I already have a girlfriend, so..."

It was not easy for Liu Jiang to rack his brains and come up with such an argument that would not offend Madonna, the old woman, nor her crazy fans, but also preserve his own reputation.

A small portion of the audience booed, but most applauded.

General Liu breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting over this stupid question.

William glanced at General Liu meaningfully, smiled, and said nothing.

He waved again, gesturing to the staff backstage to continue rolling questions.

I don’t know what happened, but the big screen suddenly became stuck.

More and more questions dropped from the top of the big screen until they filled the entire screen.

Those with a bit of trypophobia will simply not be able to stand this battle!
William's movements suddenly froze, and he did not expect this to happen.

Liu Jiang and the other three were also a little strange. Did something unexpected happen?

Soon enough, the questions on the big screen stopped scrolling and were completely stuck.

Only then did the four people on the stage see clearly the specific contents of those densely packed questions.

"You boxing boy, stop daydreaming, Madonna won't take the initiative to ask you out on a date!"

"Go and have fun with your boxing! Making movies is not for you!"

"Always support Madonna! Support "Evita"! I would never watch "Searching for a Midnight Kiss" to my death!"

The questions on the big screen are basically emotional catharsis, and there are only a few serious questions.

It is estimated that the question Liu Jiang answered just now aroused the dissatisfaction of Madonna fans, which caused the group of idiot fans to take action on the Internet.

The backstage staff couldn't handle it, so the big screen went down.

It's true to think about it. Madonna officially debuted in 1983, and her fans are now almost 20 years old, which is not much different from the average age of American Internet users.

Damn it! I didn’t say anything outrageous! Why did this group of idiot fans suddenly riot?

General Liu felt a little depressed and cursed secretly.

The column was paused for a while. The host William responded very quickly and started an awkward chat with Liu Jiang and the other three.

"John, do you usually like to surf the Internet?"

After finally waiting for the big screen to return to normal, Liu Jiang and the three answered a few more questions, and this episode of "Celebrity Chat" came to an end.

The column is over, but the waves caused by this incident have just begun.

On the Internet, Liu Jiang's boxing fans and Madonna's fans started a passionate confrontation, noisy and at each other's throats.

The momentum grew louder and louder, and even print media and TV stations paid attention to the news on the Internet.

The two films "Evita" and "Searching for the Midnight Kiss" also received significant exposure.

Amidst the hustle and bustle, the time has arrived on October 18th, and "Looking for the Midnight Kiss" has officially landed in major theaters in the United States.
