Chinese entertainment industry in disarray? Hollywood goddess welcomes strict father!

Chapter 56: Even famous commentators are nothing but dogs, biting people for capitalist conglomerate

"Actually, the reverse is also true..."

Just as Koko was speechless, Kim Kardashian, who was sitting on the second sofa, suddenly spoke up.

This made the host, Koko Bear,'s eyes light up. There are some things that are not easy for someone like him to say. It is said that stand-up comedy is an art of offense, but if you don't know your own limitations, you will ruin yourself in no time.

But Kardashian is different. She's just a controversial influencer with no substance. Even if she says something, the audience won't take it seriously, and Apple and Tesla certainly won't.

While no one would take this woman seriously, she was able to help him cooperate and put Lu Lin to a good fight.

Ok.

Yes!

He wanted to give Lu Lin a good fight, and ideally, push Lu Lin to the edge of a cliff.

This is also why he didn't bother with any more subtle hints and went straight to the point with Qianqian Films International Edition.

Only by pushing Lu Lin to the brink of collapse and leaving him unable to cope can we prove that Lu Lin's investment of tens of millions of US dollars in his program was worthwhile, and that this famous American commentator is not just a figurehead.

That wasn't just because Lu Lin's sarcastic remarks about America provoked and hurt his patriotism; he wanted Lu Lin to know that he wasn't just a lapdog who would wag his tail and beg, but a ruthless character who could kill with his words!

Then he can turn back and pull Lu Lin back from the edge of the cliff, which would be great. If you want me to cheer you on and fight for you, then invest more!

"Apple and Tesla are multinational corporations based in the United States, and their systems and core technologies are also based in the United States..."

Under the expectant gaze of host Collin Crawford, Kardashian quietly uttered a few words: "But Apple and Tesla products can be sold openly in the Chinese market. Doesn't that also pose a threat to the information security of Chinese users?"

Koko: "???"

Koko, his face a picture of utter bewilderment, stared at Kardashian in disbelief, thinking he was hallucinating: "Whose side are you on, you sour-tongued bitch? The Hollywood moguls sent you to help them fire the first shot against this Chinese bigwig, and here you are, defending him? Have you been dumbfounded by those NBA black guys?!"

Kardashian met Couture's questioning gaze, but simply grinned and shrugged: "We Americans value freedom in everything we do. Being hypocritical is really embarrassing and makes us a laughingstock among 1.4 billion Chinese people!"

She spoke politely, but Koko Bear wasn't stupid. He immediately realized that this bitch whose brain had been messed up by the black guy was probably just like him, having been bought off by Lu Lin at some point.

No... not 99%... but 100%!

Thinking of this, Koko felt secretly annoyed and helpless, but he had no choice but to abandon any hope of getting Kardashian to cooperate and unleash his sharpest talking-point skills: "The freedom you enjoy is actually bought with your so-called double standards. America First, understand?"

"I don't care what Apple and Tesla do, because they are American companies. Whether they violate user privacy is a matter for the United States to regulate. I feel very at ease, and I believe that the viewers of this program will also feel at ease and will agree with my point of view..."

"But Qianqian Films International Edition isn't a company based in the United States; it's a company based in China, and it's managed by China. I certainly don't want my private information to fall into China's hands!"

The moment he finished speaking, the audience erupted in enthusiastic applause, cheers, and shouts: "Yes... America First... that's absolutely right..."

Both Scarlett Johansson and Elizabeth Olsen couldn't help but furrow their brows, their minds racing as they tried to figure out how to deflect the topic.

This is getting increasingly out of control!

Lu Lin, however, simply chuckled and asked Koko Bear, "Is your show really pro-blue? Isn't 'America First' a redneck's slogan?"

Koko Bear froze, like a rooster being choked: "Uh..."

The audience, who had been clapping, cheering, and shouting, were instantly dumbfounded and fell silent.

What does the blue camp represent in the United States?

It is liberalism, it is openness and acceptance, it is inclusiveness.

Those with more extreme views are what Chinese netizens call "white leftist saints."

Just like Kardashian's point of view, I don't care where you got this freedom, I just want to show off my superiority and not let 1.4 billion Chinese people laugh at me.

As for "America First" and such, that's just a stupid slogan that only country bumpkins and rednecks would shout.

Are they just cheering and supporting the views and positions of their arch-rivals?

They're just making things difficult for themselves. The rednecks will be able to make a big deal out of it and put on a celebratory propaganda piece about their huge victory!

"Ahem...actually..."

Koko Bear, true to his reputation as a sharp-tongued speaker, could keep his mouth shut as long as he didn't offend the super-capital conglomerates. After a moment of bewilderment, he quickly found his response: "In America, regardless of whether we're blue or red, we all share a common view when dealing with China: no amount of caution is ever too much!"

Lu Lin remained noncommittal, then followed up with a question: "So, in your opinion, how should the United States deal with Qianqian Films International, which is based in Hong Kong?"

Koko Bear was waiting for this sentence, because it was a way to bring the topic back and make him quickly steer it back on track, so as not to completely lose control.

Therefore, he immediately offered a way out: "The ideal solution is not how the United States handles it, but rather that you, as the boss, transform Qianqian Films International Edition into a streaming media platform based in the United States, just like Apple and Tesla."

Lu Lin again remained noncommittal, saying, "But wouldn't this also threaten the privacy of Chinese users?"

Koko Bear said speechlessly, "I've already said, these aren't things we Americans care about. What we want is America First..."

He stopped abruptly at this point, his expression shifting from speechless to angry.

Because he suddenly realized that Lu Lin's question was not meant to bring the topic back to the present, but to make him quickly steer the conversation back on track.

Instead, they set a rhetoric trap, making him, a mouthpiece for the blue camp, repeat over and over the same slogan that only a stupid redneck would shout: "America First."

In other words, this is to make him hand over the knife handle to the blue faction, so that the rednecks can easily stab the blue faction to death.

It's as if they're watching a funeral without any fear of the dead; it's utterly vicious!

"Okay, don't be angry..."

Lu Lin suppressed a laugh and waved his hand, saying, "I don't mean any harm, whether you believe it or not..."

"What I want to say is that business is just business, let's not bring up information security issues."

"I can understand if Hollywood moguls want to target me, but don't bring up information security!"
