Chapter 1182: Extremely Vicious
Meyer's apology was sent back by a reporter from YY English Network at the scene, and then YY immediately made a global user push, the first time to bring this exciting good news.
"Warner has announced the permanent suspension of filming of The Last Samurai, and the victory of good over evil in the end, which is a victory for the people of the world!"
In this era, there is no media that can compare with YY in terms of speed and efficiency.
CNN doesn't work, BBC doesn't work, CCTV doesn't work either.
Only the Internet exists without borders, and the only super product on the Internet that covers the whole world is YY.
As soon as this news was issued, it immediately set off a celebration among netizens around the world, as the headline of YY News said, this is a victory for people all over the world.
Even Li Mu didn't expect that things would develop into such an incredible situation, with hundreds of millions of people standing in their own demarcated camps, working together to attack the same enemy.
Moreover, the results of this time are too rich.
Not only is "The Last Samurai" completely yellow, but it also firmly binds the spirit of bushido to Japan's crimes of World War II, making the spirit of bushido, as notorious as Nazism, all over the world.
This is a war about ideology, and once the demonic face of the bushido spirit leaves its mark in the hearts of people all over the world, then no one will dare to overturn it in the future!
Li Mu became the biggest beneficiary of this incident, "The Last Samurai" never had a chance to be released again, not only to clear an enemy for "Flying Tigers", but more importantly, through the righteous actions of Chinese netizens, Chinese netizens have been praised all over the world, and the "Division of Justice" has gained a lot of goodwill in the world.
This is also to lay a good mass foundation for "Flying Tigers", the world lacks understanding of China, especially the Chinese people, this is a very good opportunity, when the world understands the Chinese people, and has a good impression of the Chinese people, they will be interested in movies related to China.
Moreover, this time American netizens and Chinese netizens have the most interactions, and the goodwill of both sides has doubled, it can be said that the most important thing about this victory is the victory of the Justice League between American netizens and Chinese netizens, and in the future, "Flying Tigers" will present a story based on real history, where Americans and Chinese people fight side by side, with this incident as a foreshadowing, the box office of "Flying Tigers" in North America will also have a certain guarantee in the future.
In Li Mu's heart, the most important thing is that he has dealt a heavy blow to the process of the promotion and development of Japanese culture around the world, at least from now on, Japanese bushido can no longer be exported to any country as a positive ideology, and Japan's trick of trying to subtly export Japanese culture and values through film and television entertainment works will be difficult to do much in the future, because with this case first, as long as Japan tries to concoct it in the future, then there will be a large number of netizens who will jump out and tear up their disguises。
This significance is too great for Li Mu.
……
At this moment, Jiro Horita, who has been paying attention to the situation of the press conference, is finally relieved!
Okay! Meyer was still scared after all, and didn't shake himself out.
He hid his existence in front of the public and hid the real origin of the film, which also allowed him to put down the boulder in his heart.
What Horita Jiro fears most now is that he will be made public, because in that case, he will not only become the object of spurning by the whole world, but also the sinner of the whole of Japan.
Although he has good intentions to promote Japanese culture and the spirit of bushido, his actions have brought an almost devastating blow to the spirit of bushido, and it is very likely that in the future, the spirit of bushido can only become an ideology that the Japanese themselves believe in, and even become an ideology that the Japanese themselves believe in, but do not dare to say, tossing the quintessence of Japan to such an unsightly point, and he is not only a sinner, but also a sinner through the ages.
Thankfully, Meyer is a bit self-aware and knows the information to protect himself.
However, Meyer has the heart to protect Jiro Horita, but he can't change the fact that Jiro Horita hates him to the core.
While Jiro Horita breathed a sigh of relief, he immediately viciously ordered his assistant: "You go and prepare, I don't want Meyer to live too long in this world!"
In a word, the murderous spirit is revealed!
The assistant immediately nodded, with a glint in his eyes, and asked, "Do you want him to disappear quietly?"
"No!" Horita Jiro snorted coldly and said resentfully: "Since he didn't reveal my identity, then he lost all his talismans, and directly found someone to kill him in public, the greater the influence, the better, and then left a clear clue! Let him be assassinated in front of the whole world like John Lennon!"
The assistant's scheming was far less serious than that of Jiro Horita, and he asked puzzledly: "The movement is so big?! What clues should be left?"
Jiro Horita gritted his teeth and said: "I want the world to think that Meyer was killed by the angry Chinese people because he made this movie!"
Japan's quintessential spirit has been disgraced in the world, but the Chinese people have gained an excellent reputation in this incident, which makes Horita Jiro extremely dissatisfied, he wants to use Meyer to kill two birds with one stone, on the one hand, kill him, relieve the hatred in his heart, on the other hand, and let the world see the crazy assassination of the "Chinese people".
This move of Jiro Horita can be described as extremely insidious!
……
At this time, Warner's press conference has come to an end.
Meyer breathed a sigh of relief, because he could see the relief of their personal emotions from the expressions of the media reporters, and his sincere apology and remedy seemed to be recognized and accepted by the public.
Subsequently, the press conference entered the reporter's question session.
A media reporter asked Meyer: "Mr. Meyer, I'm a reporter from CNN, and I have a question I'm curious about, is the actual investor of this film Warner himself, or someone else?"
Meyer's nerves jumped, and he said: "The actual investor of this film is several companies in the film and television industry, of which the main share is Warner, since you asked this question, then I want to apologize again to the people of the world, it is our negligence in our work, which led us to launch such a very wrong project, I am very sorry!"
A CNN reporter asked: "Mr. Meyer, I heard that this movie doesn't seem to be invested by Warner, and there is news that this movie is actually invested and promoted by a big consortium behind it, is it true?"
Meyer hurriedly waved his hand: "This should be groundless nonsense, when this movie was established, we had already signed agreements with several companies, including the investment share of each company, if you don't believe it, I can take out the agreement to show you later." ”
The other party gave up and nodded, "Thank you for your answer, Mr. Meyer." ”
Meyer knew in his heart that although he broke with Horita Jiro, it didn't mean that he dared to sell Horita Jiro, so the promoter of this movie, he could only use Warner to carry it, otherwise if Horita Jiro was revealed, I am afraid it would bring a lot of trouble to Horita Jiro and the entire Sumitomo, and when the time comes, he has a feud with Horita Jiro and Sumitomo, no matter what, he is not the opponent of this giant beast, so he must hide the facts of this to the death.
Subsequently, another media reporter asked: "Hello Mr. Meyer, I would like to ask, as the director of the film, why did Mr. Edward not come to the press conference? and the first actor, Mr. Tom Cruise. ”
Meyer smiled slightly and said: "To be honest, it is a very painful thing for us to terminate a project that has invested tens of millions of dollars, but since it is our fault, we naturally have to bear these consequences, so we decided to shoulder all the responsibilities and not let our decision to stop filming affect Edward, as well as Tom's own interests, as I said before, although the film is completely stopped, we will still pay them a lot of salary, and we don't want them to be affected in any way." ”
Meyer's statement is very high-sounding, in his statement, Tom Cruise and Edward Zwick are not responsible, the responsibility is all on themselves, so there is naturally no need to find the two of them at this kind of press conference, and he will be responsible for these two people to the end, and the money should be given a lot.
The reporters present basically accepted Meyer's statement, while Tom Cruise and Edward Zwick outside the door were about to go crazy with hatred.
It is obvious that Meyer wants to step on the two of them to get out of trouble, and now he has made such remarks, which is simply shameless, and he said that the two of them are not responsible, so the two of them can really put their hearts in their stomachs? Of course not! The Internet has been criticizing the two of them for a long time, because these two people have more than once expressed their yearning for Japanese culture and their admiration for the spirit of bushido in front of the media, and this is a real "criminal evidence"! How can the people forget!
The most slap in the face is that when this movie was first established, the two were frequently interviewed in order to improve the exposure of the film, and in the interview, whenever someone asked what they thought of the movie, the two of them unabashedly expressed their admiration for Japanese culture and the spirit of bushido.
In their opinion, Meyer's shameless rhetoric perfectly explains why he left the two of them alone for a press conference, and threw the two into the abyss by the way.
Just imagine, two people who have publicly praised Japanese culture and the spirit of bushido countless times, and now that the movie has such a big problem, neither of them has publicly apologized or even publicly expressed their position, and even if they can't continue to shoot this movie, they can still get the compensation they deserve.
Edward Zwick was desperate to find a gun to kill Meyer, so he was about to lose his mind, and he kept wondering how he could save the situation? Meyer was terrible, he avoided all the problems seamlessly, and although he knew that this grandson was full of lies, he could hardly find any flaws to refute him.
Thinking about it, a crazy thought suddenly sprung up in Edward Zwick's hateful brain!
He's already thought of Meyer's flaw! Meyer's only flaw!
