Chapter 43: Turmoil and Opportunity
43. Turmoil and opportunity
The hot article on UC was like a starting gun, and there were many discussions on major forums overnight criticizing "Bad Genius" for corrupting the three views, and it is estimated that even the person who wrote the article did not expect that a short review of less than 800 words could make such a big wave.
Maybe at some point, the author of that article may have a little thought, and his short review is like Luo Bingwang's "Seeking Wu Cao for Xu Jingye".
Han Fei's parents usually like to look at headlines and other apps on their mobile phones, and "Bad Genius" became infamous for a while, which couldn't help but worry them.
"Eh, yes, it's okay, let them scold whoever likes to scold, your son eats this bowl of rice, and it's normal to be thrown into a few black pots." ”
On the other end of the phone, my parents' tone was eager, the second elder didn't know much about the Internet, and when he saw that the first few items in the comment area were scolding, he thought that everyone was criticizing this movie, and Han Fei had to try his best to calm his parents' emotions.
"How can it be normal? I've watched several news apps, so much criticism and abuse, can I go on like this?"
Han Fei stroked his forehead helplessly, and replied: "It really doesn't matter, you look at those articles or news, aren't the comments at the front all similar, either those who support the ban give me a thumbs up, or raise their hands like me who haven't seen this movie, these are all typical keyboard hero comments." ”
In the online world, everyone has a fake ID, and no one can find out what kind of person is hidden behind each ID without some advanced means. So if you scold, you scold, if you spray, you spray, how cool you come.
Some people like to go against the current, if you praise me, I will belittle, if you scold me, I will blow, if you don't do this, you will not show the noble quality of my independence and not colluding with the turbid world.
Am I the only one doing this?
Yes, you're the only one, you're the one and only, you're the limited edition, you're the chosen one, you're the out-of-print seedling, you're the Last Supper, you're the surviving boy.
Ha, phew, a mouthful of old phlegm for you.
Han's dad basically knew zero about these Internet terms, and suddenly heard a new word, and thought it was a superhero like Spider-Man, he asked, "What is a keyboard man?"
"Keyboard warrior, that's, uh-"
Han Fei really didn't know how to explain the word keyboard warrior to his parents, and his brain turned for a while before he could come up with a proper expression, so he had to say: "Keyboard warrior is a person who beeps blindly on the Internet without any eggs." ”
Taking advantage of this stall, Han's mother also interjected and said, "Then even if these people usually like to scold on the Internet, but now there are so many people scolding, aren't you worried at all?"
"I'm going to worry every day that those people can't live anymore, and the official media has never made critical remarks since the release, so let these keyboard warriors scold them. ”
"What if the official media is also influenced by these people?"
"Hey, Dad, Mom, you two put your heart back in your stomach, if the official thinks that this film will really cause such a bad impact, then I won't be qualified to pass the review at all, let alone be released for more than 20 days. ”
Han Fei was a little helpless, his parents were always concerned about him, which made him very moved, but it was not a good thing to be carried away by the rhythm on the Internet too easily, after all, he was mixed in this circle, and he would still be there when he was hacked with rhythm in the future.
Mom and Dad asked suspiciously2 on the other end of the phone, "Are you really okay?"
"You two put one hundred and twenty hearts, if there is a real problem, the uncle will definitely receive the information, as long as the official media does not criticize, my film will have nothing to do, okay, I'll hang up first, the studio still has something." ”
Han Fei finally comforted his parents, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, on the computer screen in the office, more than 20 web pages were all articles criticizing "Bad Genius", and the style was quite similar, this group of people couldn't even do "a hundred flowers blooming", so they knew that they were caught and copied a template.
Seeing Sister Fan coming in from outside, Han Fei hurriedly asked: "Sister Fan, have you found out? Is it a ghost of which movie in the May 1st file? If it is not to cut off people's money, that article will not be worded to the extreme, and I can't wait to criticize our movie like 66 years." ”
Sister Fan shook her head and said, "No, I have already asked people to check the IP, and I also went to find friends in the circle to inquire, and none of the film producers in the same schedule have done this." ”
"That's weird, who could it be? Since we're not competitors, our leading actors don't usually offend any evil forces, who will come out and make trouble?"
Han Fei frowned, he really couldn't think of a reason, and suddenly a thought flashed in his mind, and he hurriedly looked at Sister Fan and said, "Could it be that Tianyu did it?"
"Not really. ”
Sister Fan continued to shake her head, in fact, the first thing she thought of when the article first came out was Tianyu Media, after all, the only force that Han Fei offended in the circle was the old club, but she looked for her former colleagues and friends, and found that Tianyu didn't care about doing this at all, and recently Long Danni has been busy with how to save the dying talent show.
"According to the situation of checking IP, these articles are basically not from the same team, and those critical articles in the first two days are still a little level, but the subsequent critical articles are reprinted or plagiarized by other self-media, according to my judgment, this turmoil should be the new self-media maliciously rubbing the popularity of our movies, and using "Bad Genius" as their stepping stone. ”
It wasn't done by his peers, Han Fei felt that he had suffered a disaster this time, everyone usually didn't violate the well water, but when it came to the end, he was disgusted by a group of villains who played with tongues, and he was really unlucky.
"Damn, aren't they specifically 'shocked', why are they doing the criticism of the fighting club now!"
Although UC media applications do not express their opinions, they wish that their self-media writers would make big news every day, regardless of whether it is good or bad, true or false, as long as there is heat, this time we can be regarded as lying down. ”
It's like being drenched in the face by a puddle of bird droppings, and if you want to take revenge, the bird has already flown somewhere else.
Sue the person who wrote the article, this is not up to the standard of defamation, after all, others say that cheating will affect people's three views, and the judge can't forcibly convict the other party if he messes around; if he sprays it back, it will be the same as Jiang Guangtou sending supplies to my army, and others are eager to pull "Bad Genius" into troubled waters, and then muddy the water even more; if you don't do anything, you always feel like being beaten and not fighting back, and your heart is not comfortable.
"Then isn't there any way to reverse the current situation?" Han Fei asked.
"There is a way, but it doesn't work very well. ”
Sister Fan explained: "First, spend some public relations money to let UC and several other APPs delete these articles, and second, send a lawyer's letter to write these, of course, the lawyer's letter in the entertainment industry is just a toilet paper-like thing, which is not very useful, but after sending the lawyer's letter, it will be published on the Internet, which will give supporters some confidence." ”
"That's it?" Han Fei didn't feel very satisfied.
Sister Fan spread her hands, and she was also helpless, and said: "The best way now is to have a heavyweight official media interview, if you can get affirmation from multiple official media, then these rumors will be self-defeating." ”
Han Fei glanced at Sister Fan, a little depressed, and said, "How many heavyweight media do you want, don't say it's the size of a human day." ”
"What are you dreaming about in broad daylight, when have you ever seen Renri do interviews for movies, and "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" doesn't have this treatment. ”
Sister Fan glanced at Han Fei, and said: "I'll go and contact the movie channel right away, the son of radio and television, the adopted son of CCTV, if you can let them come for an interview, the effect should be very good." ”
Han Fei nodded and said, "Then try it, although our "Bad Genius" will be painted for a while, but we can't always carry the black cauldron." ”
Sister Fan tapped the table with her knuckles and reminded: "By the way, there is another important thing I forgot to mention, Geng Man contacted me this morning, saying that he wanted to discuss the overseas distribution of our film." ”
Han Fei rolled his eyes and said in surprise, "Geng Man?"
"That's right, it's the Director Geng last time. Sister Fan confirmed.
"Why did you go earlier, if she was more resolute in the last time, this movie would be able to catch up with the Spring Festival, and I don't think it's impossible to break 100 million in a week. Han Fei was a little indignant.
Sister Fan saw Han Fei's demeanor and said with a smile: "I can't blame Bo Na for this, originally the job of collecting investment was for us to point her out to pull the strings, if you want to blame, then you have to blame the local tyrant who sold coal." ”
Han Fei understands the truth, but he understands it, and he still can't avoid the emotions he should have, but he won't take them out and tell outsiders.
He said: "I don't mean that, I just think they don't have a good vision, if Geng Man and the coal boss can be more confident in our movie, the situation will definitely be much stronger than now, it could have been a win-win cooperation." ”
Sister Fan was still very calm, and said carefully: "It's not too late to cooperate now, it was a win-win at the beginning, and it is also a win-win situation now, but it is just a matter of letting Jing Tian sit in the position of a local tyrant, here we can still cooperate with Bona, although we and Bona's income will be less." ”
Han Fei laughed at herself: "In this way, Da Tiantian has the biggest income, she has a large share of the domestic box office revenue, and the reputation is also very good, fortunately, the IP and overseas distribution rights are in my hands, otherwise I feel that I am busy and all of them are Zhang Luo for Da Tiantian." ”
"Haha, then she has to pay for the PR fee this time. ”
Sister Fan was also happy, and said: "This time I can't just talk about money with Bona, I have to pick off a piece of resources from them, and this time I can use 'win-win' as a bargaining chip openly." ”
