Chapter 422: YMCA
ps: I drank more than half a pound of wine last night, which caused the previous chapter to be posted repeatedly. I have modified it. If you ordered it wrong, just refresh it.
“Friends” ranked first in ratings in 50 countries around the world.
"Mrs. Moth" ranks third on Netflix's hit list and eighth in Serbia's local ratings.
Then all future film and television dramas will not be able to overcome these two mountains.
When you want to add politically correct elements to a TV show, think about whether you want to make "Friends" or "Mrs. Moth."
"Cheng Cheng's move has silenced the LGBT movement. If Netflix had simply rejected Friends, it would have been a clown at best. But Netflix rejected Friends and invested heavily in Lady Moth. I can only say that this is a stupid decision that will go down in history! I don't know who made the decision, but this operation is truly amazing."

Next two or three days.
"Friends" continues to be updated, and its popularity is rising almost every day.
Internet users around the world expressed their love for it.
English.
"Damn it, I should have supported him a long time ago. I've watched a lot of TV series this year, but none of them can compare to this. The music, the story, and the characters are all so great. Cheng is an amazing person. The more you get to know him, the more you'll like him!"
"Screw the big corporations and the media's opinions! It's beautiful!"
Serbia.
"These are our boys and girls. They live together, are positive, have a life that is not always smooth, even has some minor troubles, but is still happy."
"I want to ask, would you recommend this drama to your daughter, son, or other Hollywood dramas? For me, it's this one!"
Maple Leaf Country.
"I like Rachel best, she's so beautiful."
"I can't stop taking screenshots for screen savers!"
Deutschland.
"This is my new material for learning English."
"Oh, Rachel is a bit like my sister. She was like this since she was a child. She was born in a wealthy family."
Jiang Jun is famous!
Veraya is on fire!
Paxson is on fire!
Cedric, Ollie, and Lucilla are on fire!
Many actors from "Friends" became famous.
Jiang Jun also rushed to Serbia. The six-member group was interviewed together, shot for magazines and advertisements, and won many endorsements.
Before the release of "Friends", the mainstream media in Serbia were all boycotting the show. But now that "Friends" has become a global hit, the mainstream media in Serbia have immediately fallen silent.
Now I don’t even dare to mention it, just pretend that nothing happened.
Hollywood was silent.
Netflix was silent.
The three major TV stations, ABC, CW, and NBC, which were the instigators of the incident, were as silent as if someone had died.
But even though they pretended to be dead, netizens around the world would not let them go. They criticized and ridiculed them in various ways. Especially the netizens in Serbia, they loved them deeply and criticized them harshly: The essence of Serbian drama was mastered by a Chinese. With so many people in Hollywood, can you feel proud? !

The set of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy III".
Cheng Cheng received countless congratulatory calls and text messages.
There were employees from the company, partners, relatives and friends, as well as celebrities and directors in the industry. In short, there were too many people coming to congratulate, almost half of the industry came.
This is naturally understandable.
Once there is a success, there will be a second. With "Resident Evil 1" and "Friends", Cheng Cheng has completely proved himself internationally.
He has proven that he not only has the ability to create stars domestically, but also has the same level of ability to create stars internationally.
In this situation, who wouldn't want to curry favor with him?
In the past, if celebrities in the entertainment industry wanted to break into Hollywood and the global market, they could only look outside, lick the feet of international capital, and curry favor with famous Hollywood directors and big names.
But not now!
Now that they have Cheng Cheng, they can just curry favor with him.
In this way, a week passed quickly during the filming of "Chinese Paladin III". The filming progressed very quickly and one-third of the filming had been completed. On the set, in addition to filming, he also trained the acting skills of young actors.
At the same time, "Friends" has also aired its 12th episode, and the charm of "Friends" as a legendary American TV series has finally begun to emerge.
However, just as audiences at home and abroad were immersed in all kinds of good reviews, Hollywood caused trouble again.
It turns out that the Rotten Tomatoes score for "Friends" has been released.
But it is only 77% fresh.
What level of freshness is 77%?
For an ordinary TV series, 77% freshness is indeed not low, and it is even quite good. It is impossible to get 77% without some talent. But for "Friends", it is low! Too low! It is even insulting!
You know, the domestic Douban score is 9.7!
Even if "Friends" doesn't get a 95% freshness rating, it should be no problem to get more than 85%, right?
But Rotten Tomatoes gave it 77%, not even 80%!
Seeing how shameless Rotten Tomatoes is, fans of "Friends" at home and abroad suddenly realized:
No wonder, no wonder all parties in Serbia were so silent after the release of "Friends", it turns out they were waiting here!
Furious netizens were giving "Friends" a lot of positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, while at the same time frantically accusing and attacking Rotten Tomatoes online, criticizing them for being unfair and unprofessional. There were even large numbers of fans who went directly to the official Rotten Tomatoes account to start a group.
I thought the audience's anger would calm Rotten Tomatoes, but I didn't expect Rotten Tomatoes to do something even more shameless. It directly deleted the positive reviews for "Friends" and modified the data in the background.
The rating of "Friends" has been declining, from 77% to 68.1%, and is still declining. The more people give it positive reviews, the lower its freshness.
In the end, they locked in the score for "Friends" at 65% freshness.
Such shameless behavior directly allows the people of the world to see the shamelessness of the Western world.
An executive of Rotten Tomatoes responded to netizens' questions about the rating data on social media. He said that the company was only checking whether there were robots involved and did not delete or modify the ratings, but only filtered out some robots.
What this means is that Rotten Tomatoes did not change the data, but simply cleared out some of the water army's reviews to ensure the fairness of the ratings.
What they meant seemed to be: If I could just make the rating of Friends bad enough, it would prove that Friends wasn't a good TV show, and they would still win.
But netizens really can't do anything about them.
They are not hesitating to use the fairness of the platform to discredit "Friends". What can netizens do?
There’s nothing I can do!
This also made some people realize that, yes, even if "Friends" was successful, what would it matter? Hollywood still adopted a strategy of boycotting Cheng Cheng, or in other words, the more successful Cheng Cheng was, the more Hollywood boycotted Cheng Cheng!
Because Cheng Cheng slapped them in the face!
The two sides have completely torn their faces apart.
In other words, Cheng Cheng's situation in Hollywood has not improved, but has worsened.
So what will happen to the upcoming Resident Evil 2? What about the currently filming Legally Blonde? Can it still be released?
You know, it’s easy to broadcast a TV series. All you need is a mobile phone and a TV. Every family has one. But movies are different! Movies must be shown in theaters to earn box office revenue.
And Serbia's cinema chains are under the control of Hollywood.
This becomes a situation where one stubborn stick ends up being blocked at both ends.
Or does Cheng Cheng really want to give up such a huge Serbian market?
Many people feel doubtful.
In the room, after finishing his physical work, Cheng Cheng put on his shorts and got out of bed.
Jiang Nan was lying on the bed, wrapping her beautiful body in a snow-white quilt, revealing only her beautiful face and messy black hair after exercise. She asked curiously, "Chengzi, aren't you going to sleep yet? What are you busy with?"
Cheng Cheng opened his notebook and said:
"There's just a little bit more to do. Go to bed first. You don't have to wait for me."
Jiang Nan shook his head and said:
"I can't sleep. I'll watch you work. I want to hold you while I sleep."
"That's fine, I'm quick."
Cheng Cheng turned on his phone again and called Hans Dickinson. It was exactly eight o'clock in the morning, Serbia time, and Hans Dickinson should have just arrived at work.
As soon as the call was connected, Hans Dickinson's excited voice came over:
"Hey, Cheng, my good brother! Hahahaha, you finally remembered me! This feels great! Your "Friends" is extremely popular in Serbia! Our TV station is now the only one in the country that broadcasts this drama. I have to thank you very much, you are my lucky star!"
Cheng Cheng said:
"You're welcome. We are helping each other. In fact, Hans, I need your help right now."
Hans Dickinson: "Oh? What's the matter? Are you talking about Rotten Tomatoes? Sorry, I can't help you with that. I'm just the deputy director of a TV station."
"No." Cheng Cheng said with contempt, "I don't care about rotten tomatoes at all. I just need your help with something else. You should know the governor of your state, right?"
Hans Dickinson was surprised and said:
"Yes, I do know him, but...Come on, what do you want to see him about?"
Cheng Cheng continued, "Your governor is a Republican, right? And your country is holding midterm elections, and there is a Republican presidential candidate. I'm telling you the truth. I want to meet him and give him a song."
Hans Dickinson:
"You, you want to give him a song?"
Cheng Cheng: "That's right. Oh, I forgot to tell you that I'm also a singer. So, I'll send the song to you first, and you can help me make the contact. Also, tell him that I'm willing to donate money to him."
After hanging up the phone, Hans Dickinson was still in shock on the other end of the line.
Jiang Nan on the bed was also a little surprised. She asked:
"Orange, are you in?"
Cheng Cheng returned to the bed and held her in his arms:
"I'm just making a small bet, Jiang Jiang. Tell me, why is Hollywood targeting me? Is there still a way for us to enter Hollywood?"
Jiang Nan shook his head, unable to think of anything.
At the moment, it looks like a dead end no matter how you look at it.
"But I do," Cheng Cheng said, "and I have more than one way."
Jiang Nan's eyes lit up and he said:
"Tell me!"
Cheng Cheng said:
"The first method is that we can set up a foreskin company. I will shoot a movie under a pseudonym and release it in Serbia. Once the movie becomes a huge success and even wins an Oscar, I will publicly admit that it is the work of my director and screenwriter. By then, it will be too late for those in Hollywood to boycott me, and their boycott will only seem pale and powerless."
Jiang Nan secretly praised:
What a good plan! So insidious!
But she couldn't help but corrected:
"It's a shell company, not the one you mentioned..."
"What?" Cheng Cheng didn't understand. "What are you talking about?"
Jiang Nan blushed and punched him:
This guy is clearly pretending not to understand.
Cheng Cheng continued:
"The second way is that I sell the scripts under a pseudonym to Hollywood companies. When these movies are released and win awards, I will still come out and say that I wrote the scripts. By then, they will not be able to boycott me because I will have countless pseudonyms and they will not know which one is me, unless they stop accepting scripts. But is that possible?"
Jiang Nan couldn't help but smack Cheng Cheng:
"Orange, you are so smart!"
Cheng Cheng shook his finger and showed off: "But I don't use either of the above two."
Jiang Nan asked: "Why?"
Cheng Cheng said:
"Because it has been used by a senior time traveler, and it takes a long time to take effect. I don't like it. Instead of fighting with them, it's better to use the situation to suppress them directly."
Jiang Nan: "How to press it?"
Cheng Cheng said: "The Republican candidate is running for election. He is an old white man. He is not on the same side as the white left elites in Hollywood. We can bet on him. As long as he wins the election, he can help us pave the way in Hollywood."
"But is this okay?" Jiang Nan hesitated. "We are from Tianxia, and we are in the entertainment industry. It's not good to get involved with him, right? And what if our bet fails? He has already failed once."
Cheng Cheng said:
"There's nothing wrong with that. There are many celebrities who have participated in politics. Some even appeared naked on screen and later became president. We should actively participate in such things and push the world in the way we want it to be.
And even if we fail, it doesn’t matter, we are Tianxia people anyway, not in Saiguo.”
Jiang Nan hugged Cheng Cheng tightly:
"Okay, Orange, I'll listen to you~"
She could sense the man's ambition, and became more and more fascinated by it.
-
Two or three days later, with the help of Hans Dickinson, Spencer received the song written for him by Cheng Cheng. When Hans Dickinson handed the song to him, he also noted that the creator of the song hoped that he could play the song at the rally.
To be honest, if the creator of the song hadn't offered to donate to him, Spencer wouldn't even listen to it!
Of course, he actually knew Cheng Cheng.
He knew that he was a big star in Tianxia, that he created "Resident Evil" and "Friends", and even knew what he had done specifically. In his opinion, Cheng Cheng was more pleasing and normal than many Hollywood stars.
But that's it.
Spencer still didn't want to call Cheng Cheng by his name, and was only willing to refer to him as 'the one who makes the movie', 'the one who writes the song', or 'the Tianxia boy'.
First of all, Spencer hates everything about Tianxia, including Tianxia’s immigrants and Tianxia’s people!
Secondly, Cheng Cheng is just a star after all, which doesn’t count for much, and the gap between him and his circle is too big.
Spencer was friends with the world's pop king, and Cheng Cheng was far inferior to his friend.
Sitting on the luxurious sofa, Spencer looked extremely arrogant. He waved his hand casually and said:
"Listen to the songs of that Tianxia kid. I'm curious about what kind of songs he can write. Oh, I hope his music can be innovative. At least, it shouldn't just sound like a bunch of clichés."
"Ok."
His men nodded and clicked the play button.
Then, a strong sound of music came:
“Young man!
there's no need to feel down!
I said young man pick yourself off the ground! "
Spencer's originally careless sitting posture straightened up in an instant!
He quickly asked:
"What's the name of this song?"
His subordinates said:
"YMCA"
"YMCA?" Spencer's eyes flashed with surprise.
The more he listened, the more he felt that this song was so suitable!
Is there a possibility that he kept this song for himself and didn't tell the world that it was written by that Tianxia boy?
Don't doubt it, he can really do it.
