697. Matsuura's helplessness
Investing in Aibex, of course Zhou Fangyuan is willing, needless to say.
However, Katsuto Matsuura still has requirements.
In addition to fully enjoying the channels of the Yuanfang Group in China, he also has to enjoy the Twitter channels of the United States, not only that, but he also requires that among all the Hollywood movies cast by the Yuanfang Group, there must be at least three stars of Aibecks every year.
The first two are easy to say, but only the third one, Zhou Fangyuan can't agree to him so easily.
Why, first of all, although the unspoken rule of Hollywood movies is to enrich the race, there must be actors of multiple races, which can be regarded as a kind of political correctness. But even so, the number of actors selected is limited, after all, there are so many leading actors, and the supporting roles are also limited. According to the current ability of the Yuanfang Group, if you can take the lead in making movies in the United States, it is already the limit to have two or three films in a year, and you can't even do it to this extent. So three places a year, that's absolutely impossible.
Zhou Fangyuan can only guarantee to provide a quota every year, and who is selected is not in his hands, at that time, Ai Beck's own business.
The two sides had a heated discussion on this issue. In the end, both sides made concessions, and Katsuto Matsuura did not bite the three places, but let go of two of them, but not completely. Three places became two places, but one of the places was used for Hollywood blockbusters, and one place was used in China, Songpu Shengren asked Yuanfang Group to leave at least one Hollywood place for Ai Bakers every year, and at the same time left a quota for Ai Bakers in the Chinese domestic film market, which Zhou Fangyuan was more acceptable. In the final analysis, his power in China is still a little stronger, and it is not a big problem for him to find a few places for Ibex in China, but if he leaves too many places for Ibex in Hollywood, it is impossible.
After all, he still has to take care of his own stars, and even if he doesn't talk about his own, will he just leave Nanxian alone?
In short, the first thing is to take care of the country, then Fusang, and finally Nanxian, after all, even if there is a "politically correct" part in Hollywood movies, there can't be too many Asian faces, otherwise foreigners should be stunned.
Just as Chinese people always can't tell who is with whom when they look at foreigners, in fact, the same is true for foreigners when they look at East Asians, and the word Asian is a general term for East Asian races. Whether it is the Chinese people, or the Fusang people, or the Nanxian people, or those countries in Southeast Asia, in fact, the distinction between them is still very clear. If the interior photos of that ethnic group of Asians were to be distinguished by people from various East Asian countries, it would be easy to distinguish. But these faces, if given to foreigners, it is not clear to distinguish them properly.
It's the same with Chinese people.
This is not face blindness, it should be called the interracial effect more accurately. In fact, it means that it is impossible to distinguish the appearance of foreigners, which is due to the "narrowing of perception" in the process of the development of our perception. On the surface, both the "alien effect" and "face blindness" are manifestations of inability to recognize people, with the former not recognizing the faces of the alien race and the latter not recognizing most of the faces, seemingly only differing in scope and severity. But in reality, the causes are very different.
So what is "perceptual narrowing"?
There is such a set of experiments.
The subjects were small babies who could not speak or understand the task like adults, so the researchers used a "habituation" paradigm for these kinds of experiments. They will give the baby a face again and again until he/she is not actively staring at the image, and after a while, they will show the baby two faces at the same time, one of which was the same as before, and the other is new. The researchers judged the baby's ability to recognize faces based on the length of time they fixed on two pictures. If the baby's fixation interest or fixation time is focused on new images, it indicates that the baby is able to recognize or distinguish between two pictures.
Using this paradigm experiment, the researchers found that 6-month-old babies stared at new faces for significantly longer time than familiar faces, regardless of whether they appeared with a human face or a monkey face, suggesting that 6-month-old babies can recognize both human and monkey faces well. In contrast, the results of the experiment in adults showed that adults had good recognition of human faces, but there was no significant difference in the fixation time between raw and cooked monkey faces, suggesting that adults could not recognize monkeys as non-human faces. This shows that adult face recognition is better than non-face recognition.
This is perceptual narrowing, and although many people may be reluctant to admit it, it is the case, and admitting that it is actually weaker than infants in terms of cognition. What babies can distinguish, adults may not be able to distinguish.
So when did we start to become perceptually narrow?
The experiment continued, this time using Chinese babies. The experimental results show that babies can recognize the faces of American whites, Chinese and Africans well at 3 months old; at 6 months old, they can recognize the faces of Chinese and American whites, but cannot recognize African faces; at 9 months old, they can only recognize the faces of Chinese, but cannot recognize the faces of white Americans and Africans.
These studies show that in the process of our perceptual development, we generally have a "narrowing of perception" and lose this ability to distinguish different faces. This is in line with the need for evolution, where we are most exposed to the same race, and accurately distinguishing the faces of the same race is conducive to social interaction and racial survival, so the human brain automatically adjusts to the needs.
Of course, perceptual narrowing and face blindness are different, face blindness is also called "face agnosia", which refers to the group of people who are significantly impaired in the brain in face processing, and can be roughly divided into acquired face agnosia and developmental face agnosia according to the cause of the disease.
The former refers to the face recognition disorder caused by the damage to the brain area in the temporal lobe related to face processing due to acquired diseases or brain trauma, and acquired face agnosia is also the earliest type of face agnosia.
The latter states that there is a specific face recognition disorder that accompanies the onset, without any brain damage or other underlying cognitive abnormalities. Developmental facial agnosia occurs in about 2% of the population and is not an uncommon problem. The term "face blindness" that our friends usually refer to this type of person.
To put it simply, the effect of perceptual narrowing of alien race is only for different kinds of people, that is, as long as they are of the same species, everyone can still distinguish clearly. And this is not a disease, this is the inevitability of evolution, after all, most people still have daily contact with people of their own species, and people of different species have relatively little contact. And the latter are sick, they don't distinguish between races, and they belong to a situation where no one knows who they know. In short, the interracial effect is prevalent in the vast majority of human beings, so it is indeed difficult for whites to recognize the differences between East Asian countries or ethnic groups.
Of course, there are exceptions, but there is no need to mention them alone.
This is also the reason why, even if "politically correct", the number of non-white actors in Hollywood movies has not been large, after all, these movies are mainly aimed at North America and Europe, these places are white people's world, and of course they will choose more white actors. On the other hand, if one day the center of the world really shifts to China, then it is natural that these films will choose more East Asian races to play the roles, which is quite normal.
So in today's situation, even if Zhou Fangyuan shoots Hollywood blockbusters, there are not many Asian roles he can get, and the scope he has to take care of is a little too much, so Matsuura Katsuto's initial request, he will definitely not be able to agree. But if there is only one place, then he can still accept it.
I didn't expect to have such a big harvest, Zhou Fangyuan was very happy, he chatted with Matsuura Katsuto for a long time, and talked about the difference between the two markets.
In the end, it was agreed that Zhou Fangyuan would launch an acquisition of Aibex in the near future, of course, other shareholders of Aibex may not be willing to invest in Yuanfang Group, so this requires Songpu Shengren to exert force in it. He will be the traitor of Aibecks to help Zhou Fangyuan complete the acquisition, the specific share, the result agreed by the two is about 20%, this company was founded by Matsupu Shengren, but he does not have the absolute right to speak now, he wants to drag Zhou Fangyuan into the market, but also hopes to increase his right to speak. But if Zhou Fangyuan wants to overpower Matsuura Katsuto, he will definitely not accept it, so Matsuura Katsuto is equivalent to helping Zhou Fangyuan at the same time, but also restricting him, Matsuura Katsuto will not kill, he doesn't want to fight the wolf at the front door and meet the tiger at the back door. His real purpose is to strengthen himself, of course, he thinks very well, and he wants the Yuanfang Group to support him, and he can't snatch his rights, how can there be such a good thing in the world? Zhou Fangyuan has agreed now, and to be honest, today's Aibecks does need Songpu Katsuren. But in the future, it's hard to say, Zhou Fangyuan may annex Aibecks, or he may get rid of the shares in his hand, how to choose, he can't say now.
Anyway, now that Bing Qi is in full swing, today's Aibex has retained value, if one day the value of Aibex is gone, then he will inevitably clear out the shares of Aibex, which is certain.
But when it comes to Penci step......
"Mr. Matsuura, I would like to know, the ...... between Miss Ayumi Aki and Tomoya Nagase right now"
Zhou Fangyuan said as if he had something to say.
Matsuura Katsuto was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then showed a helpless smile, "Zhou Sang, you already know everything?"
"Pretty much, what, doesn't Mr. Matsuura think I shouldn't know?"
"No, no, no, Zhou Sang, you misunderstood, I never thought about it that way, I just think that with your current identity and status, you shouldn't be interested in her......"
"On the contrary, I'm interested in her, Mr. Matsuura, but I'm quite confused. As far as I know, Miss Bing Qibu should be the most popular star of your company now, doesn't your company have any arrangements and plans for her development? Shouldn't such a thing as a popular idol star falling in love be stopped? Since you want to maximize the value of fans, I think that falling in love should be avoided as much as possible. ”
Zhou Fangyuan looked at Katsuto Matsuura.
Katsuto Matsuura nodded, "This situation is to be avoided by any company in the entertainment industry, but you also know that Ben Qi is ...... Well, how to put it, very personal, many times she may not listen to what I say......"
Katsuto Matsuura began to pour bitter water.
In fact, he is also very depressed, of course he knows what idol stars should do if they want to ensure their fame, falling in love has a new development in the future, but in this era, idol stars falling in love will still hurt the hearts of many fans to a large extent, so generally speaking, even if a star falls in love, he is sneaking and hiding, he just doesn't want fans to know. But Bing Qibu is different, although she didn't go out to publicize her love with great fanfare, she didn't deliberately cover it up, and the result became known to everyone, which still had a great impact on a new star like her.
"Then you can't find a way to stop it?"
"It's hard, this kind of thing really happens, and we can't stop ......"
Katsuto Matsuura sighed, and then he briefly introduced the identity and background of the other party.
Tomoya Nagase was born on November 7, 1978 in Aoba Ward, Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture. His parents divorced when he was young, and he lived with his mother and sister since he was a child. As a child, my dream was to become a professional skateboarder, and I have been injured by broken bones many times when I was skateboarding. At the age of 11, he took the opportunity of his sister's private resume to submit his resume, and stood out from the 1.5 million resumes of that year and joined Genesys & Associates. Since 1992, he has been performing as an alternate member of TOKIO and serves as a tambourine player for TOKIO. In 1994, the original member Kei Kojima quit the showbiz because of his studies, and Tomoya Nagase was officially promoted from a tambourine player to a lead singer debut.
This Tomoya Nagase is not small, his popularity is very high, and he has won awards again and again since his debut.
For example, in 2001, he won the Best Actor Award at the 29th Japanese Drama Academy Awards, in 2003, he won the Best Actor in a Japanese Drama at the 2003 Daily Sports Newspaper Awards, in 2002, he won the Yujiro Ishihara Rookie Award at the 15th Nikkan Sports Film Awards, and he won the 16th Fuso Glasses Best Dresser Award...... In short, this person has a good reputation and a good future, and the company behind him is not a small company, but the famous Jennis.
In Fusang's entertainment industry, Dennis's status is no worse than that of Ibex, and it is also a very large company. Tomoya Nagase's current status in Genesys is naturally not as high as that of Abeks, but it is also quite important. It stands to reason that the combination of the two of them is actually a very good thing, although it has caused harm to some fans, but as far as the star himself is concerned, the combination of the two is likely to drive mutual communication between fans of both sides, and even go further, it is also possible that someone's fan likes another star because of the relationship between idols.
It is also because of this that it is not good for Ibex to interfere too much in the love affair of Bing Qibu, after all, no matter what, Bing Qibu is an important cash cow for them, no one will go against money, as long as Bing Qibu can still make money for them, they will not be too harsh on Bing Qibu.
