Chapter 1689: Hype
1689
Arlington University.
Martin's face was hard to see.
The whole auditorium was filled with commotion.
If it's just a commotion, it's nothing, Martin can accept it, but it's not just a simple noise, Martin can clearly see that in the audience, someone is playing cards, someone is drinking, and even someone is cooking hot pot!
The person who cooks the hot pot uses the kind of portable hot pot, and this person sits in the first few rows, and the hot pot is tumbling and tumbling, and bursts of water mist are rising.
You're going too far, aren't you? Cooking hot pot? Do you think this is a hot pot restaurant?
There were many students at the entrance of the auditorium, and they wanted to come in to see the propaganda, but the auditorium was already occupied, and these people couldn't get in at all.
"Students, please be quiet, today is the promotion of our movie, please keep quiet! The student who is cooking hot pot, please don't affect the surrounding students. The host kept shouting, trying to make the scene quieter, but to little avail.
"Who did I affect by cooking the hot pot? Did it affect you?" Lu Damin asked while looking at the people left and right while shabu-shabu the meat in the hot pot.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!" the people around Lu Damin shook their heads again and again.
Martin's face turned white with anger, and he rushed to Lu Damin's side excitedly and said, "This classmate, we are now promoting our movie, please respect our movie!"
"I have a lot of respect, but I'm hungry, can't I eat something? Don't you even let me eat something?" Lu Damin said aggrievedly.
"You can eat outside if you want, and you can come in when you're done!!" Martin said.
"I just want to eat here, the air here is extraordinarily sweet, and the space is large, and there is air conditioning, it tastes very refreshing!" Lu Damin said, put the meat in his mouth, and ate it, it looked really delicious.
Martin was angry, but there was nothing he could do.
The surrounding media gathered to capture the joyful scene on camera, and then it is expected that it will be made into some funny special and broadcast on TV.
A movie promotion meeting was turned into a farce in this way, the people on the stage talked, the people off the stage also talked, and even ate hot pot, and the whole auditorium was extremely noisy.
At this moment, several policemen suddenly walked in from outside the auditorium.
As soon as these policemen came in, all the cameras at the scene were keenly turned around and all pointed at the police.
Several policemen walked up to Martin, and one of them said loudly, "Mr. Martin, we have received a report that you participated in planning and organizing a violent attack against other film promotion teams, and now we need you to come with us and cooperate with our investigation!"
"How is it possible, I've always been here, how did I get involved?" asked Martin.
"We just asked you to go back to the police station with us to assist in the investigation, whether it's you or not, just investigate. The police officer said solemnly.
"No way, I didn't, how could I have been involved in some violent assault case!" Martin shook his head.
"I'm scared to death, Director Martin is still in the underworld!" Lu Damin, who was not far from Martin, exclaimed in horror.
"The underworld, it's terrifying!"
"Oh my God, the underworld!" exclaimed from the crowd.
Martin was disturbed by this exclamation, and the whole person suddenly became agitated.
"I didn't, I absolutely didn't!" Martin exclaimed excitedly.
"Come with us, please!" said the policeman in charge, reaching for Martin's hand.
At this time, Martin was extremely anxious, and when he saw the policeman stretching out his hand, he directly raised his hand and knocked the other party's hand off.
"I told you, I didn't!" Martin shouted.
In foreign countries, attacking the police is a felony, Martin's move, the policeman turned his face black, flew forward directly, twisted Martin's hands behind him, and then directly pressed Martin's whole person to the ground, and then handcuffed Martin's hands behind his back.
The surrounding reporters excitedly aimed the camera at Martin, and Martin was arrested for attacking the police, which is big news!
"Let go of me, you guys, let go of me!" Martin shouted.
The policemen didn't care what Martin was calling, they arrested Martin directly, and then walked out of the auditorium.
It wasn't long before Martin was taken out of the auditorium.
The guys on Martin's film team are all in the circle, which one is this play? How could it be that the director of the film was arrested for some reason?
Soon, the news of Martin's participation in organizing and planning the violent attack was spread by media reporters at the scene, and at the same time, Jennifer's colleagues also reported the news that Xu Taiping's team was attacked.
These two news appeared almost at the same time, so it is natural for people to associate the two news together.
Martin organized and planned the case of the violent attack on the film team of "Skywalker"!
Such news quickly spread throughout Los Angeles.
At the same time, on the land of China.
News about the unfair treatment and even violent attacks on the "Skywalk" film team during the Los Angeles promotion period suddenly appeared in major media.
These news quickly occupied the top few positions on the Weibo hot search list, and at the same time, they also quickly occupied the front pages of major media.
After reading the news, people found that the domestic film propaganda team in the United States was not only occupied by people for no reason, discriminated against, and then beaten, and then the anger of the Chinese people was ignited all of a sudden.
Arlington University became the first victim of the anger of the Chinese people, because everyone found out in the news that Arlington University forcibly tore up the contract with the "Skywalker" team in spite of the spirit of the contract, and put "Skywalker" The auditorium used by the film team to promote the film was directly handed over to Martin for use, and this kind of discrimination made countless people feel angry, and the website of Anlington University was directly hacked, and then, under the leadership of some people, people spontaneously boycotted Anlington University, and many people who originally planned to study at Anlington University have spoken out that they will no longer consider Anlington University, and some schools that have cooperated with Anlington University have also announced the termination of cooperation.
Almost in an instant, Anlington University became a street rat in China, and I don't know how many cooperative projects were stopped.
Angry Chinese people can't put out the fire after boycotting Arlington University, and after that, news about Martin's organization and planning to attack the "Skywalk" film team spread, so the second round of boycotts on the Internet began, this time everyone boycotted Martin, and Martin's new film.
Martin is an international director, and he also has a high reputation in China, and many of his previous films have achieved very high box office in China, so the Chinese people are very familiar with Martin, and even Martin still has many fans in China when Martin attacked "Tianxing" After the news of the team was exposed, countless Chinese spontaneously organized to boycott Martin and his new film, and after that, the distributor of Martin's film in Huaxia also quickly issued a statement that they would break off cooperation with Martin, and after that, major theaters in Huaxia also issued statements one after another, they will not schedule any of Martin's films.
In other words, Christmas, Martin's new film will be completely banned in mainland China!
You must know that Huaxia is now the world's largest box office market, and the global box office of Hollywood blockbusters, generally speaking, Huaxia will account for about 40%, once the Huaxia market is lost, the blow to the movie box office will be absolutely devastating!
In such a situation, someone launched a call on the Internet to support the "Tianxing" movie, this person said that "Tianxing" is a recent domestic going out of the movie, it is said that Tianxing will participate in the Oscars, but it was treated unfairly on the first day of the United States publicity, the Chinese people should support "Tianxing" more, let everyone know that the Chinese people are of one mind, and any Chinese people who are bullied abroad will get the support of the people of the motherland.
Such a call, driven by some media, quickly received a huge response, and many netizens said that they would contribute a movie ticket when the "Tianxing" movie was released, so that Huaxia movies would rise and those who looked down on Huaxia movies would shut up!
Under the double hype of the media in China and the United States, Xu Taiping's investment in "Tianxing" has not yet been officially released, and it has successfully won huge attention, this attention is across two countries, no movie has ever been able to get such a high degree of attention before its release, under such attention, as long as the quality of this movie is gone, the box office will definitely not be bad!
Two o'clock in the afternoon.
At this time, the media in China and the United States are hyping up what happened in Arlington University, such as Arlington University tearing up the contract, such as Martin robbing Xu Taiping's publicity points, and Xu Taiping's film team being attacked.
These things occupied almost all the news programs during this time period, and everyone was discussing these things, and in this situation, Xu Taiping came to Arlington University alone.
At this time, the auditorium where Xu Taiping and they promoted the movie had already been empty.
Martin was taken away, and his team naturally withdrew, and Lu Damin and others naturally left one after another when they saw Martin's people leaving.
Xu Taiping stood at the door of the auditorium and watched for a while, and then called Lu Damin.
Not long after, Lu Damin came to Xu Taiping with a few people.
"Tomorrow, I'm going to get my team here to continue the advocacy. Xu Taiping pointed to the auditorium and said.
"Do you want to come tomorrow?" Lu Damin asked in surprise, "Why?"
"Strike while the iron is hot. Xu Taiping smiled and said, "Now we have attracted enough attention, the next thing to do is to transform these attention into practical benefits, our biggest goal in coming to the United States is to promote our film, now our attention is enough, in this case, the promotion of the movie, can maximize the consolidation of these attention, and finally convert it into the box office of the movie." ”
"I see!" Lu Damin suddenly realized.
(Today's 2 more arrived, training for a week, it's really tiring, and then I'll adjust it well at home, thank you for your concern!)
