As a professional entertainment reporter and a loyal fan of Li Qian, Lu Chao is also on duty during the Spring Festival.

In the past few days, I haven't paid too much attention to the situation of the Spring Festival stalls, but more about the trends of the awards season.

Whether "Truman's World" can win the Oscar is the most important thing in the film industry.

When I get up in the morning, I go online and go out over the wall as usual.

Facebook and Twitter took a look at the two major websites, mainly focusing on the movements of well-known film critics and Oscar judges.

There is nothing new either, after all, it is the best foreign language film, and it is not as popular as the best picture, best director, actor, and actress.

The morning was over, and it was soon past twelve o'clock.

Just when he wanted to turn off the computer and have a meal break, he found that a reporter on Twitter who had been following suddenly posted a message related to "Truman's Timing".

After watching "Truman's World", the audience suffered a psychotic attack and climbed the Statue of Liberty to find the door to the real world?

What the heck?

Lu Chao was stunned, he who had studied movies in all aspects, of course he knew what he meant.

If you guess correctly, some viewers were affected after watching the movie, thinking that the world was false, so they climbed onto the Statue of Liberty, thinking that the door was to leave the door of false reality.

But that's too much money!

I thought it was a spoof.,But there's also a video.,Click on it to see what it should be recorded from the TV.。

In the background, at night, a large group of police officers and reporters under the Statue of Liberty, with one reporter facing the camera to report.

Lu Chao naturally understood English, and his face immediately changed.

It seems that it is a live TV broadcast?

By the way, it's 12 noon, and it's 12 o'clock in the morning in New York.

turned out to be true, Mi Li Jianren became a psychotic after watching "Truman's World".

It's too much money!

Lu Chao immediately became excited, his fingers crackled, and it didn't take long for a press release to come out, and then use the video.

"Let the news fly for a while. ”

With a smile and posting the news on the homepage and Weibo of Xinlang, Lu Chao turned off the computer and prepared to eat and take a lunch break.

During the Chinese New Year, except for a few people, everyone rested at home, and soon this news was seen by netizens.

However, the first reaction was disbelief.

"I'll go, don't you want any discipline for the sake of traffic now, and the person who wrote this news doesn't look at it himself, so a fool can believe it!"

"Watching movies is a neurosis, this news is outdated, didn't there be a lot of this kind of news two months ago, the reporter is too disrespectful!"

"This time, I learned to be smart, and I reported that Mi Lijian was stupid when watching movies, and it was 108,000 miles apart, who knows if it's true or not. ”

"It is estimated that the reporter has eaten his brain at home and sent out this kind of news that only a fool will believe. ”

"There is a big V on Weibo and self-media, there was a big V who opened a psychological clinic before, saying that he received eight people who became neurotic after watching "Truman's World" in one day, and also advertised himself, so that those who suspected that they were being monitored would go to him to have a look. ”

"Yo, what about the video, a picture at the beginning, and everything else depends on the editor?"

......

But any normal person would not believe this news.

However, if there is a video and the truth, it is different.

However, I will still be skeptical, after all, the video is only on the ground, and this was recorded when it first happened.

But after waiting for seven or eight hours, when it was morning in New York, Twitter and Facebook went crazy, and there was no need for reporters to reprint it, and many netizens in China who went over the wall and went online broke the news.

Within two days, the Internet was full of rumors about the impact of "Truman's World" on Mi Lijian, as well as the ridicule of Mi Lijian.

"Hahahaha, Mirito is so cute, there are people who are really crazy, and because of a joke, they believe that there are people on the Statue of Liberty who have a door to the real world. ”

"After reading Mi Lijianren's words on Twitter, I was a little skeptical that everyone was living in the same world. ”

"It's the same earthling, why is there such a big difference, looking at Mi Lijian on Twitter, it seems that he really thinks there is something wrong with this world?"

"Even the conspiracy theory that 9 units are self-directed and self-staged by the Mi Lijian government has come out, and there is also the horizon theory, I always thought it was ridiculous. ”

"Uh... Isn't this a joke, is Mi Lijian a netizen serious?"

"People in New York can tell you very clearly that the conspiracy theories of the moon landing, the conspiracy theories of the 9 units, and the theory of the horizon are not uncommon, and some of the theories of the horizon are influenced by religion, but there are also people who use this as a gimmick, and some time ago a student at Duke University gave a lecture on the theory of the horizon, and he wanted to be famous and wanted to go crazy. ”

"Twitter has laughed to death in the past two days, and "Truman's World" has exploded so many neurotics. ”

"This wave of proper intelligence reduction blows, Li Qian is awesome!"

......

"Truman's World" caused a sensation in this off-season of movies in North America, and even domestic audiences and media are paying attention.

To be honest, as long as you are a normal person, you can't understand the views of those rice grains, although what they say is reasonable and well-founded, and people who watch it want to laugh.

Everyone watched it as a joke.

However, in North America, it is getting more and more lively.

To be honest, although Li Qian knew that there was a high probability of causing a certain amount of influence, he was still unexpectedly at the single-day box office of tens of millions of dollars and steadily occupying the daily box office champion for three consecutive days.

Now, Li Qian: The feelings of the others and the domestic audience are exactly the same.

It's really a country of freedom, and all kinds of speech comes out.

Even, there are already viewers who have spontaneously built a website for "Truman's World", gathering a small group of like-minded viewers who believe that the world is false, and jointly study how to escape from this world.

They call it the "Freedom Alliance".

It's free!

However, this kind of people are still in the minority, and most of them are more attacking the government, capitalists, and the media for working together to manipulate the world and deceive the people.

Not only ordinary audiences, but also many media outlets, as well as well-known personalities, have all come out.

"The general expression of television is entertainment, and all public discourse is increasingly appearing in the form of entertainment and becoming a cultural ethos. All cultures willingly become vassals of entertainment, and the result is that we become a species that entertains to death.

For the sake of entertainment, for fame and fortune, TV companies can deprive a person of their most basic rights, in order to satisfy their voyeuristic desires, the public can treat a living person as a clown, and collude with TV companies. —From the Los Angeles Daily News.

"Truman was born in a false world that was tailor-made for him, a complete lie in which the whole world was deceiving him and spying on him, and only he was unaware of it.

This is a collective "crime", the director, the entire crew and even every viewer in front of the TV are "murderers", they use the media to manipulate Truman's life, and sadly, their lives are also "manipulated" by the media.

When the public feels sorry for them, they don't think that they are also a pathetic person, and the news published by TV stations and newspapers every day is not true or false, and the content is controlled at will, in fact, they are also manipulating the majority of people!"

The media criticized the media for manipulating the people, and Li Qian was amused.

I scolded myself?

However, if it's for sales and topics, it's understandable that scolding yourself is nothing.

I have to say that these well-known film critics, professional writers, and newspapers know too well what ordinary people want to see.

After reading "Truman's World" and reading these manuscripts again, it is easy to have a sense of substitution, and suddenly find that most of the things I see are known through the media and TV, and even the news on the Internet is actually from the media.

When you think of being manipulated by the media, you can't be angry!

Los Angeles, the entertainment capital, erupted in a "we refuse to be media puppets" small march.

Standing at the window of the hotel, condescendingly overlooking the Avenue of Fame not far away, a crowd of marchers chanting words such as "freedom", "don't be a media puppet", "we want the truth" and so on.

Li Qian smiled, left the window, and went back to the living room to sit on the sofa, in front of the large screen TV, there was still the picture of the parade, which was the live broadcast of CW TV.

Deng Chao looked at the picture on the TV and was puzzled, "I don't understand what these media are thinking, they are obviously scolding the media and scolding the TV station, they are not angry at all, but they seem to be very happy, this parade is still going to be broadcast live, for fear that others will not know." ”

Li Qian said with a smile, "There is news, there are ratings, and they don't care if others scold or not, no matter how big the movement is, they can't wait for it." ”

What about scolding, can Mi Lijian stop watching TV?

TV and the media are not worried about the impact on themselves at all, and now they are being scolded, in exchange for a lot of ratings and newspaper sales.

As for pressing down and cold treatment, it is impossible, and I can't wait to add fuel to the fire.

All kinds of Internet and print media are scolding the media and the government for manipulating the people, and even many TV stations' talk shows and talk shows are scolding.

The TV station broadcasts programs that scold the TV station, and the audience scolds the TV station while watching the program that scolds the TV station.

Newspapers criticize the media for controlling public opinion, and people buy newspapers to read newspapers and scold newspapers for controlling public opinion.

According to reasoning, what do media and television stations lose?

The answer is, not a dime lost.

"Why do you say that this rice grain is strong and marches at every turn, and now is not a rest day, and there is no need to go to work in broad daylight?" Zhang Wei couldn't understand these people, they came to march for everything, they were really idle.

Tong Liya had an idea, "Wouldn't this also be organized by the media, self-directed and self-acted?"

"It's certainly not organized by the media. Li Qian shook his head.

"That's okay, otherwise Mi Lijian is too pitiful, saying that he won't be a media puppet, but in fact he still does it, and without knowing it, he willingly becomes a media puppet to help them increase ratings and newspaper sales. ”

Li Qian continued, "It's not organized by the media, it's organized behind the scenes of Warner, and they also found the live CW TV station, which belongs to the CW TV Network, the fifth largest television network in the United States under Warner. ”

"Ahh This ......" Tong Liya was stunned.

Deng Chao and they are also a little confused, co-authored this is Li Qian's doing?

While making a movie to expose the media's manipulation of the public, through this film, he manipulates the public and manipulates public opinion in reality.

"It's too... So what's that? Deng Chao smiled bitterly.

Although it was not clear, Tong Liya, Zhang Wei, and Wang Ou also knew what Deng Chao was talking about, and they also had the same idea.

Li Qian didn't care, "You can say whatever you want, and you can scold me as a black-hearted capitalist." ”

"Isn't that a lie? Zhang Wei said weakly.

"Who did I lie?" Li Qian asked rhetorically.

"Lie to the rice grains. ”

"Is it also a lie to lie to rice grains?" Li Qian smiled.

Everyone looked at Li Qian with a smile on his face, dumbfounded.

"You have to be careful, if you are discovered, you will be scolded to death. Tong Liya slapped Li Qian's arm angrily.

"What are you scolding me for. ”

Li Qian spread his hands, "Think about it, if what I did was made into a movie, would the audience be more touched after watching it, and whether the irony would be stronger, I was satirizing the media, and I was waking up Mi Lijianren, who made them so easy to be instigated." ”

Listening to Li Qian's righteous words, their eyes widened, and the two girls, Tong Liya and Wang Ou, opened their mouths slightly, they couldn't imagine that Li Qian would be so... Shameless.

Deng Chao slapped his head hard, "Wait a minute, I can't get around, someone made a movie, in the movie, you made a "Truman's World", and the program team in "Truman's World" filmed Truman's life into a 24-hour live reality show.

Is this the case, and then in other people's movies, the movie you made caused a big sensation and sparked a heated discussion about the media manipulating the people, but in fact, this sensation was also manipulated by you, so that the audience of other people's movies saw this scene and had reflections. ”

Like a tongue twister, Li Qian's head was big when he listened, "That's pretty much what it means." ”

Tong Liya said angrily, "You are sophistry, and no one can see it, who will reflect!"

"Who said there was no one, maybe there were aliens with a higher civilization looking at me and saying hello to the audience. ”

Li Qian smiled, looked up at the ceiling, waved his hand, and said with a smile, "Hi, hello." ”

"Shhh

Everyone couldn't help but gasp, and suddenly felt an inexplicable weirdness, and they were uncomfortable.

......

In the afternoon, a small march broke out in New York, also planned by Warner.

The parade they planned, the TV station that broadcast it live, is also their CW TV station.

and "Truman's World", which has the same effect.

I have to admire this group of people who are engaged in the media, they are really making a lot of money, and they are playing with the people.

Li Qian didn't expect it at first, mainly because of the parade, he really didn't expect for a while that the difference in thinking between the East and the West was still notified by Warner after the plan was confirmed.

However, looking at these indignant and ordinary people who shouted "We are so free, don't be media puppets", Li Qian did not feel guilty.

Even Warner will not have the slightest guilt for fooling his own people, and Li Qian, a Chinese, will not feel guilty for Mi Lijian.

In the evening, Li Qian also met with Thomas, considering the current situation, they had to arrange one or two interviews for themselves, that is, to fool Mi Lijianren.

After talking, I returned to the hotel, the time was not early, I casually turned on the TV and watched the news, then took off my clothes and climbed into bed.

...

"Turn off the lights. ”

"What are you doing with the lights off?"

"I always feel like someone is watching. ”

“... Go on. ”

"Oops, ...... the lights"
