This director is vindictive.

Chapter 175 Really? I do not believe

"The funeral industry is a fringe industry with some taboos, avoidance, gloom and prejudice. In real life, it is full of helplessness," Chen Mo continued.

Chen Luyu then asked, "But in reality, many people don't seem to have a very good impression of those working in this industry. For example, they charge very high fees and are very snobbish. There are also many news reports that the funeral industry is a highly profitable industry. Many netizens even say that many people can't afford to die. What do you think about this?"

This issue can be said to be a rather acute one.

Chen Mo nodded and said, "Yes, this is a real situation. I used to think so too."

"But the more I'm exposed to it, the more I can't help but think about it. Since everyone has such a deep prejudice against this industry, have you ever thought about the people who work in this industry, including the cremators, corpse retrievers, coffin bearers, professional mourners, etc."

"Have you ever thought about what they have to sacrifice or lose by doing this job?"

"The audience just now actually answered some questions in this regard."

"But in reality, they face more discrimination, contempt, gossip, and even the inability to find a wife. Their children, like me before, don't dare to tell others what their family does.

They sacrifice so much, and if the pay is less than what ordinary people get, why would they do this job that everyone despises?"

"For example, professional mourners. Many people think this profession is unnecessary, but in fact, as far as I know, the demand for this industry has increased dramatically in recent years.

In the eyes of many people, being a professional mourner and pretending to be a filial son or grandson is tantamount to forgetting one's roots. Even if family members find out, they will be slapped in the face.

But is this profession really so unnecessary?

I was also wondering about this question before, but after a deeper understanding, I realized that this profession is really necessary at times.

Because death and posthumous affairs are undoubtedly major events in life for us Chinese!

When we think of funerals, the first thing that comes to mind is crying! This is why professional mourners exist.

Because not every funeral has people crying!"

"So, is 'Life Events' a defense of the funeral industry?" Chen Luyu asked again.

"You can't say that. Whether it's whitewashing or justifying, to put it bluntly, don't you understand this truth? Everyone understands, everyone knows that it's not easy to work in this industry, but in fact, they say that they envy their high salaries and remuneration, as if it's easy to do. But if you really give these people who say this a chance to do this job, how many people do you think will do it?" Chen Mo shook his head.

"With 'Life Events', I just want everyone to understand the realities of the funeral industry. Of course, if it can make people start to think about life, that would be a great benefit."

"Did Zhu Yulong really go to experience mourning?" Chen Luyu asked again.

"Yes, originally I just wanted him to experience life and understand this industry. After all, he was playing such a role in the movie. As for mourning, maybe he wanted to have a deeper understanding and experience of it.

I heard that after the video was released, he immediately received a call from his parents at home and was severely scolded. "Chen Mo said with a smile.

"So you see, that's why I said before that I prefer to use Zhoujie?" Chen Mo didn't know if he was influenced by Chen Luyu's Qiankun's moving style, but he couldn't help but drift a little.

"Goose, hahaha!" Chen Luyu's signature laughter rang out.

"'Life's Big Events' will be released on December 12st. Director Chen previously raised three fingers at the premieres of 'Love Is Not Blind', 'Dying to Survive', and 'Wolf Warrior 21'. So what is Director Chen's expected box office for 'Life'? Will it still be three fingers?" asked Chen Luyu.

Chen Mo smiled and shook his head, saying, "To be honest, because the subject matter of Life Events is relatively niche, and the funeral industry itself is quite special, I really don't have high expectations for the box office of this movie.

Making this movie can actually be said to be a portrayal of my own mental journey.

From the initial misunderstanding and shame to mention it, to the later understanding.

As a funeral director, we deal with death every day and have to view it with maturity. But how should we, as ordinary people, face death? How should we face the passing of our loved ones?
This is a very heavy question.

So, this time, I won’t raise my finger to this movie, because I don’t know how many audiences this kind of subject matter can reach.”

"Really? I don't believe it!" Chen Luyu finally, finally came.

Chen Mo almost couldn't hold it in anymore.

Chen Mo’s first interview program has come to an end.

After this episode of "A Date with the Bass" was broadcast, it caused a great response.

Although during the show, Chen Luyu also asked the questions that the majority of the audience wanted to know the most, such as what is the relationship between Chen Mo and several celebrities in the entertainment industry.

Unfortunately, Chen Mo never gives a direct answer to such questions.

However, this episode can still be said to be full of useful information.

For example, this was also the first time that Chen Mo mentioned the industry his family was engaged in, and the first time he mentioned the bitterness behind the "Stabbing Cult" incident.

"That's right. If he had continued to be an actor, who would have dared to ask him to film a movie?"

"To paraphrase Zhao Ruilong from In the Name of People: The entertainment industry doesn't allow such an awesome actor to exist!"

"Everyone knows he was wronged, yet they still asked him to apologize. This sentence reveals the reality of the entertainment industry!"

"That's why Chen Mo is so awesome. Looking at the entertainment industry, he's the only one this tough and awesome!"

"It must be that he himself is exceptionally capable and talented. Otherwise, he would have retired long ago. Even if he hadn't, he would probably be just a nobody at this moment, right?"

The Knife-Stabbing Cult was once again pulled out and severely whipped.

Some nosy netizens once again started a chain reaction: "Thanks for the backstabbing!"

"Thanks to the Knife-Stabbing Cult, otherwise how could we have so many good movies to watch? Haha!"

"Thanks to the Blade Inserting Sect, otherwise there might not be Chen Sanzhi today!"

"Thanks to the Dagger Sect, because of you, we have experienced the reality of the entertainment industry!"

"Thanks to the Knife-Stabbing Sect, otherwise where would Professor Du come from? Haha!"

"Thanks to the Knife-Stabbing Cult, to some extent, they are the key to Chen Mo's career!"

"Thanks to the Knife-Stabbing Cult for providing Chen Baiyi with his first pot of gold!"

The topic of Chen Mo supporting Zhou Jie has been a hot topic recently, so it has also caused quite a bit of controversy.

"Originally, how should I put it? It's just a small matter, but in that era, it's difficult to comment on it."

"What Chen Mo said is right. Even if it were Zhou Jie at that time, he wouldn't be able to flip the table like Chen Mo even if he wanted to."

"I have a feeling that Lin Xingru will become just like the Knife-Stabbing Cult in the future. Zhou Jie should probably thank her. If it weren't for her, Zhou Jie probably wouldn't be an agricultural tycoon now, right?"

"Hahaha, just thinking about it makes me sick. She said it was like being forcefully kissed, with her tongue sticking out, which was really disgusting, but what happened next? I've seen her do kissing scenes before!"

"She's a joke, a white lotus. I remember the eye-catching scene of her being surrounded by a bunch of muscular men on her birthday. So Zhou Jie was criticized just because he's not a muscular man?"

"The worst part is, every time she runs out of topics, she pulls Zhou Jie out to exploit them. It's outrageous! She's a replica of the Stab-In-The-Back Cult. If Chen Mo hadn't filed the first cyberdefamation case, perhaps what we'd be seeing now are the Stab-In-The-Back Cult members, all going on various shows to whitewash themselves."

"It's a meme that's been used for twenty years. No one else in the entertainment industry has done it this way, okay?"

Chen Mo's new film "Life Events" also sparked discussion.

"The funeral industry, even though the Japanese TV show 'Departures' is quite famous, in reality, what Chen Mo said is too true, this industry is the target of discrimination."

"But the funeral industry is indeed extremely profitable, that's true. What Chen Mo said does make sense. These people have indeed sacrificed a lot and lost a lot." "There's a funeral director in our village. He's the one everyone turns to for funerals. He's almost sixty this year and still single. Why? Those who understand will understand!"

"The story Chen Mo told about his childhood friend was really sad. His own grandfather died, but he couldn't even cry. Eh."

“I’m suddenly looking forward to this movie.”

What’s even more interesting is that this is the first time that Chen Mo can be said to be cowardly. After all, most of the time, how can a director not have confidence in the movie himself?
But Chen Mo, the great director who has never failed, also known as Chen Sanzhi, is still extremely popular at this moment because "Wolf Warrior 2" has not been released yet. As a result, he actually gave in on his new film, which made many people feel strange.

Of course, there is also the famous line Chen Luyu said: "Really? I don't believe it!" which was also ridiculed by others.

"No way, Chen Mo also has his moments of weakness? The difference between before and after is just too big, isn't it?"

"When Wu Jing only dared to say 2 billion for 'Wolf Warrior ', he just held up three fingers. But when it came to 'Life Events', he suddenly got scared. Isn't that too real?"

"But it's indeed a niche subject. If you want to expect a movie like this to even raise a few fingers at the box office, it's really difficult to make billions at the box office."

"Chen Mo's reaction is so different, no wonder Chen Luyu's famous scene is reappearing!"

"Really? I don't believe it! I'm definitely going to watch 'Life Events'!"

"A conscientious director admitting his mistake shows the truth! This kind of subject matter is indeed a bit niche."

"Some deeply ingrained ideas are not so easy to change. Anyway, I still have no good impression of practitioners in this industry!"

"I have no good feelings about this either. They dare to sell an urn for a ridiculous price, and you have to buy it. It's really annoying!"

But no matter what, Chen Mo achieved his goal of promoting "Life Events" through this interview, and the effect can be said to be very good.

It’s very interesting to say, ever since the No. 1 paparazzi’s account was blocked.

Many celebrities choose to personally get involved in the fight, which can easily escalate the situation.

For example, Zhou Jie angrily criticized the French kissing incident that year. This matter can be said to be a direct confrontation. Lin Xingru, who knew that she was in the wrong, only responded to the incident through her own Weibo and the studio's Weibo in an attempt to end the dispute, but netizens did not buy it.

Originally, this news was showing signs of getting more and more intense because of Chen Mo's interview.

However, as a result, another big scandal broke out in the entertainment industry.

Moreover, this time it can be said to be very dramatic, with a surprising twist that made the onlookers forget Zhou Lin’s twenty-year-long grievances and hatreds.

The reason was that in September, singer Lao Xue reunited with his ex-wife Gao, which made many people shout that "I believe in love again". For a time, his image as a "good man", "loyal" and "affectionate" remained unchanged. But the most dramatic thing was that less than a week later, his ex-wife came out to tear him apart, exposing all kinds of negative information about Xue. Netizens even invented a new term based on this quarrel - "ask for a hammer and you get a hammer."

To be honest, Chen Mo couldn't help but sigh when he saw this news. Showing off affection in the entertainment industry is really not advisable!
He wondered why so many celebrities in the entertainment industry like to show off their love?

There are so many lessons from the past, but no one has learned from them. Look, we have failed again.

Fortunately, I have never created a good man persona for myself. Nowadays, it is really risky for celebrities to create personas, especially those of good men, good women, good wives and good mothers.

What made Chen Mo laugh and cry was that because of this incident, he was pulled out again.

There is no way, because Lao Xue was exposed to have cheated on his wife during his marriage.

For a time, keywords such as entertainment industry marriage, entertainment industry scumbag, etc. became popular on the Internet again.

Chen Mo, who is recognized as the most special "scumbag" example in the entertainment industry, was unsurprisingly brought out for comparison.

"These people in the entertainment industry really don't understand. If you don't understand, just learn. Look at Chen Mo. He's set a good example for everyone, but in the end, none of them can learn such a simple question."

"Another one, another one, is this the year of the great gathering of scumbag men and women?"

"It really proves the saying, if you want to be responsible, then be responsible to the end. If you don't want to be responsible, then don't make promises! Learn from Chen Mo, who plays tricks and no one scolds him. This is what a master does!"

"How many times has this happened this year?"

For the Chinese entertainment industry, 2017 was definitely an extraordinary year. During this year, there were constant turmoil and quarrels. Too many major events happened in the entertainment industry. Some people were ridiculed for their image collapsing because they tried too hard, some people were injured by a hammer falling from the sky, and some people were caught cheating. Therefore, this year was also jokingly called "the first year of the collapse of celebrity image" by netizens.

However, what puzzled Chen Mo was that his character was so stable, and it had nothing to do with the collapse of his character, right?

What is his personality? A scumbag, bah! No, he is a romantic and talented man!

After all, he is not married, has no plans to get married, and has no girlfriend, so there is naturally no talk of cheating.

So his character is quite stable.

But the result?
It's really baffling. These netizens are really stupid.

"Learn from Chen Mo and don't let the house collapse!"

I don’t know when, but this sentence was directly pushed to the hot search by netizens.

Many Weibo celebrities have spoken out, and even some social commentators have expressed their opinions.

"Why do we say that if you learn from Chen Mo, you won't let your image collapse? Because everyone has a personality, especially celebrities. The earliest ones were the popular jade-girl celebrities in Hong Kong, the jade-girl leader and so on. Once this kind of personality is established, you have to maintain it.

Once you do something that goes against your character, it is easy for your character to collapse.

The most unacceptable person is Xue. No matter what kind of persona you set up, don't set up a "good man," "loyal," or "affectionate." This is the easiest way to ruin a person's image, because labels like "good man," "loyal," and "affectionate" can't be established overnight. Instead, they all have one characteristic: you need to spend your entire life to maintain this persona!

So what about Chen Mo? Does he have a character?

The answer is yes, but why do we say that if we learn from Chen Mo, our house will not collapse?
Because his personality is actually not a positive one! As we all know, he has unclear relationships with many female celebrities in the entertainment industry. Those who know the details will know!

But why didn't anyone think there was anything wrong with what he did?

You can call him a playboy or a scumbag, but you can't say that his character has collapsed.

Because he has never directly admitted it. On the contrary, because of the incident of giving away shares at the beginning of the year, he became a "model of scumbag". Sorry, this is not a derogatory term, but a huge compliment to some extent.

You see, some celebrities in the entertainment industry complain that the Chinese people have too high expectations of their moral standards.

But what is the reality? Judging from Chen Mo's perspective, people don't really have that high expectations for the moral standards of celebrities in the entertainment industry.

In today's monogamous society, Chen Mo is suspected of having six relationships at the same time. He is undoubtedly a man who is scolded by many people, but why do people scold him and praise him at the same time?
Of course, the most basic thing to learn from Chen Mo is to not make promises easily if you can’t do it.

The most important thing is that you must be handsome, talented, and more importantly, rich!

This is also why everyone is shouting, learn from Chen Mo and don't let the house collapse, but unfortunately few people can learn it.

Because Chen Mo can use enough money to replace the marriage certificate, and he is young, handsome, and a talented man. Which woman can resist him?
The key is career! As we all know, it is difficult for celebrities in the entertainment industry to guarantee a long-term career. Once one party's career fails, it may lead to a gap and an imbalance in status.

But there is really no need to worry about Chen Mo, so you can learn from Chen Mo, but don’t learn everything!
Also, it can be ambiguous and well-known, but don’t make it public, don’t show off your affection! Chen Mo did it perfectly! "

In fact, as October approached, this Weibo celebrity's words once again came true.

Two so-called golden boys and girls in the entertainment industry have made their relationship public.

For a while, fans were devastated and some stopped being fans!
The two of them even showed their affection in a high-profile manner. I can only say that they are young people, too young.

I just said that I wanted to learn from Chen Mo and not let the house fall, but in the end, I didn’t learn the most crucial point: don’t show off your affection, don’t show off your affection, those who show off their affection will die faster!
