Chapter 889
Fan Bingbing suddenly poured a glass of red wine on Sharon Stone's face, and everyone present was stunned, although they all knew Sharon Stone's brainless remarks before, and they all felt that such a disaster had happened, Sharon Stone also said that this kind of cool words were very inappropriate, but Fan Bingbing's actions still surprised everyone.
Sharon Stone was still proud, but she was suddenly splashed with wine, and she was also confused, raised her head, and looked at Fan Bingbing in disbelief, she is a Hollywood star, this Chinese woman dares to splash herself with wine?
Coming to her senses, Sharon Stone screamed, "Security, security, get this woman out!"
Fan Bingbing is a first-line actress in China, but she is not well-known in Europe, although "Inception" is popular, but she is not the female number one in the film, so not many people know her, at least the security guards at the scene don't know her.
After hearing the commotion here, and knowing that Fan Bingbing had a conflict with Sharon Stone, he naturally sided with Sharon Stone: "This young lady, you have affected the other guests, we have to ask you to leave!"
Fan Bingbing glanced at the security guard, looked up at the stars present, and said loudly: "The theme of today's dinner is charity, but you let an inhumane person like Sharon Stone participate, and it is okay not to participate in such a charity event!"
After speaking, Fan Bingbing turned to Li Yu and said, "Let's go!"
Li Yu smiled helplessly, and hurriedly followed, today's dinner was a good opportunity for them to promote "Guanyin Mountain", but if something like this happened, it would be meaningless to stay, besides, she didn't think Fan Bingbing had done anything wrong, but admired Fan Bingbing very much in her heart.
International Zhang also saw everything that happened here, looked at Fan Bingbing and their distant figures, and said in surprise: "I didn't expect her to be so strong, but she did a great job, I want to give Sharon Stone a slap, what she said is too annoying!"
Cheng Long was also full of admiration: "If it weren't for Sharon Stone being a woman, I would have pumped her a long time ago, okay, Fan Bingbing and the others are gone, let's leave too!"
Other Chinese filmmakers who came to the dinner chimed in: "Yes, let's go!"
Saying that, several other Chinese artists present also left the stage one after another, and at this time, the Chinese is very united.
Fan Bingbing asked Sharon Stone to apologize, and the news of splashing her with wine quickly spread back to China, and was reprinted by countless forums in a short period of time.
"It's worthy of the Fan Ye I like, don't be scolded like some incompetent waste, do a good job, it's not enough to splash her with wine, you should give her another slap, hahaha!"
"I wish I could be here so I could smoke Sharon Stone's two big mouths, I'm going to make her mouth suck forever!
"Support Fan Ye and deal with a shameless mean woman like Sharon Stone, I very much agree with this tough attitude, let her know that Chinese are not easy to bully! Fan Ye, you are good!"
"Master Fan!V587!"
What happened in Cannes was just a small episode, although Fan Bingbing made Sharon Stone lose face, but it would not have much impact on her, but in the conference room of Louis Vuitton headquarters in Paris, France, everything that happened here would definitely make that cheap-mouthed woman break her bones.
At this moment, members of Louis Vuitton's board of directors are gathering to discuss how to resolve the turmoil caused by Sharon Stone.
A middle-aged man suggested: "Let Dior China announce that it will be revoked immediately, and stop any image advertising, marketing and commercial activities related to Sharon Stone, give an explanation to the Chinese people, and continue the contract with Sharon Stone overseas, and wait until the contract ends, depending on the situation." ”
Delphine Arnault frowned: "I'm afraid it's not okay, yesterday the very famous Chinese director Song Zheng called me to protest, and he has said that he will boycott any works related to Sharon Stone in the future, although his relationship with the fashion industry is not close, but don't forget his strong influence in China, he has many fans, and he is also influential in Europe and the United States, this matter is impossible to hide from him, it is impossible to cover up the past, we have no choice but to terminate the contract with Sharon Stone!" ”
"We are Louis Vuitton Group, how can we bow our heads because of a Chinese word?" said a director dissatisfied, "and I think the boycott of netizens will not affect Dior's sales in China, after all, Dior is positioned as a high-end person, and it is only the general public who posts on the Internet claiming to boycott it." ”
When Delphine Arnault heard this, she said in a cold tone: "Before I say this, I would like to ask you, have you ever watched the TV report on the earthquake in China? If you have seen it, you will understand how wrong you are. The cohesion shown by the Chinese in the face of the disaster is shocking, no worse than the Jews, if you think Sharon Stone said that, how would the Jews react? We need the Chinese market, with the outbreak of the economic crisis, the United States, Japan, Luxury consumption is declining in Europe, China is not immune to the global economic crisis, but it is far less affected than other countries, and their economy is still growing at a high rate, the Chinese market is very important to us, we don't have to risk it for Sharon Stone!"
Bernard Arnault, the head of Louis Vuitton, looked at Delphine and nodded slightly, his daughter not only inherited her business acumen, but also inherited her calmness and decisiveness, and the Louis Vuitton Group will rely on her to carry forward in the future: "Is there a legal problem with the termination of the contract with Sharon Stone?"
Delphine Arnault laughed: "Sharon Stone loves to cause trouble, so we have a breach of contract clause in the endorsement contract, as long as her words and deeds cause harm to Dior's brand, we have the right to terminate the contract, now Sharon Stone's words and deeds have had a negative impact on the company and brand image, we can terminate the contract is completely legal, and we can also claim compensation from her according to the trouble she has caused!"
When Bernard Arnault heard this, he no longer hesitated, and said directly: "In this case, then terminate the contract with Sharon Stone as soon as possible, this is the fault she caused, and it should not be borne by Dior, Delphina, this matter is handled by you!"
The Chinese market is impossible for any businessman to ignore, what the board member just said, Dior's consumer group is high-end people, in Bernard Arnault's view, it is simply brain-dead, he has been to China, understand China's national conditions, in China, it is difficult to define which part is high-end people, which part is the general public, Chinese have the habit of saving money, even low-income people, there is also a large amount of savings in their hands, even if this part of the people only buy Dior products once in a lifetime, how much turnover will be?
Compared with a mere out-of-fashion star, the huge Chinese market is the lifeblood of Louis Vuitton's development.
As for bowing to a Chinese, what's so difficult about it?
Sharon Stone didn't know what price she was going to pay for those brainless words and deeds, but she still felt that she was in big trouble, and she couldn't turn a blind eye to the criticism on the Internet, so she returned to the United States after attending the Cannes event to avoid the disaster.
After the plane stopped at Los Angeles International Airport, Sharon Stone walked out of the VIP passage with a helper, her face was ugly, didn't she just say a few words about Chinese, why did everyone seem to have made some big mistake?
At this moment, Sharon Stone's agent greeted him: "Ms. Sharon Stone, I have very unfortunate news to tell you, I have just received a notice from Dior that Dior will terminate his endorsement contract due to the great negative impact on Dior's image. ”
"What!" Sharon Stone was shocked, a little unable to believe her ears, Dior's endorsement contract can bring her 5 million income a year, and more importantly, a luxury like Dior, so that she has enough exposure and maintained her high-end image, as soon as Dior's endorsement is removed, then her career will fall to the bottom, she suddenly panicked and screamed, "Why? I have a contract with Dior, how can they do this? They are in breach of contract!"
The agent talked helplessly, and when it happened, she told Sharon Stone to apologize quickly, but Sharon Stone refused, she even said, you know me very well, I will not apologize, I will never apologize to a group of pig tails.
At that time, the agent knew that things would become like this, that the current China is not the China of twenty years ago, and now even the big Hollywood companies have to please the Chinese, and the huge market there is something that everyone remembers.
Seeing that the agent was silent, Sharon Stone roared, "Damn, are you dumb?"
The agent sighed and said: "Dior has not breached the contract, according to the contract, if your words and deeds have caused damage to Dior's image, then they have the right to terminate the contract, in the past two days, China has set off a wave of boycott of Dior, Dior's performance has been affected, so they have not breached the contract." ”
Looking at Sharon Stone's increasingly ugly face, the agent continued helplessly: "Ms. Sharon Stone, now this matter is too big, many people are already criticizing you, and several other brands you endorse have also contacted me, if you can't immediately eliminate the impact of this incident, then they also have the right to terminate their cooperation with you and claim compensation from you!"
Sharon Stone was stunned, he only said a few words about the Chinese, and did not offend these people, why should he target me?
She was both aggrieved and puzzled, and asked: "Why is this? Many celebrities have scolded China and satirized the Chinese, they are all fine, why are they targeting me?"
The agent was very helpless, he couldn't wait to give this woman a slap and let her sober up, Sharon Stone This woman really has no brains at all, and she still doesn't know where she is wrong, sighing and saying: "The current China is not the China of 20 years ago, in the case of the outbreak of the financial crisis, the growth of the performance of luxury groups can only count on China!" Similarly, many Hollywood studios are also eager for the Chinese market, and crusading against you is a gesture of goodwill for China and can win the hearts of the Chinese people, and your words are really stupid!"
Sharon Stone screamed: "Enough, you are my agent, you should be on my side, what if you offend those pig tails, I am a Hollywood star, I don't believe their hands can reach Hollywood!"
The agent smiled bitterly: "There is also bad news for you, the crew of the movie "Five Dollars a Day" and "Blood Street" have proposed to terminate the contract, Lionsgate, Columbia, Paramount, Fox, and many other production companies have also publicly stated that from now on, there will be no more cooperation with you in any form, and I am afraid it will be difficult for the crew to ask you to act in the future!"
Sharon Stone was stunned and asked in a trembling voice, "Why?"
The agent looked at Sharon Stone with pity, and said in a slightly mocking tone: "You are mistaken, their hands have indeed reached out to Hollywood, do you know Song Zheng? It is the Chinese director who made "True Lies" and "Inception", he has called on people to boycott everything related to you, he has a strong influence in China, and his work has been recognized by Hollywood, and those big production companies are eager to cooperate with him, do you understand when I say this!?"
Sharon Stone has long been out of fashion in the United States, and now she mainly acts in B-grade films and small-budget literary films, these movies basically have no hope at the box office, who will offend a promising director for her, not to mention that this director also has a large cinema chain in China, and is also a major shareholder of a mobile phone development company, the weight of the two people is not comparable at all.
In this case, the best solution is to give up Sharon Stone and play the actor instead.
Sharon Si informed that if all this was true, then her film career could be said to be over, and she asked unwillingly: "But ~~~~~~ why is this? I didn't offend that Song Zheng!"
The agent sighed and said: "Ms. Sharon Stone, Song Zheng is Chinese, through this earthquake, how united the Chinese are, people all over the world have seen it, but you say such remarks, you should be able to think of how angry he will be, if you listened to me and was willing to apologize, maybe the matter could be reversed, but you refused, now the matter has become bigger, even if you apologize again, it is too late, they cannot forgive you!"
At this moment, Sharon Stone was like being struck by lightning, and the whole person fell into a complete state of stupor, she was not too stupid, and at this time, she finally realized how wrong she was.
It took a while for Sharon Stone to come to his senses: "So what do I do now?"
The agent shook his head: "You really should think about what to do next, but this has nothing to do with me, I came to resign to you today, our contract ends here, I don't want to waste time on people whose careers as actors are completely cut off, don't you like to talk about retribution? Maybe this is your retribution!
After saying that, the agent didn't look at Sharon Stone and turned to leave.
Sharon Stone felt like she had fallen into an ice cave, chills, the fashion industry was over, the film and television industry was finished, she was completely finished, she stood for a long time, she went crazy to her assistant: "Get out!
Just when the news of Sharon Stone's airport splash appeared in the American media, Dior also issued a statement on the official website: "In view of the recent inappropriate remarks by Sharon Stone and the adverse social reaction, Dior has now decided to immediately withdraw and stop any image advertising related to Sharon Stone. We would like to express our condolences to the victims of the earthquake and express our deep sympathy and condolences to the people in the disaster area, and we reaffirm our long-term commitment to the Chinese market and our full support for the reconstruction of the disaster area!"
Two days later, the desperate Sharon Stone finally sent a letter of apology, in which she said: "There have been many reports about my remarks at Cannes recently, I just want to end all misunderstandings, yes, I said the wrong thing, I have not made a more regrettable mistake than this, this is unintentional, I apologize, these words are by no means intended to hurt anyone, I am deeply sorry and sad for the harm caused to the Chinese people by my remarks, I really didn't want to hurt anyone, this is an unintentional mistake, please forgive me!"
Before Sharon Stone issued an apology letter, many netizens said: "This time, we refuse to apologize, we will not forgive." ”
Song Zheng also believes that they are all adults and must be responsible for their words and deeds, even if this time, Sharon Stone no longer issued an apology statement through his agent as in his previous life, but the boycott of Sharon Stone will still be carried out to the end, at this point, Song Zheng feels that Chinese should learn from Jews.
Repay grievances with virtue, how to repay virtue? Repay virtue with virtue, repay grievances with straightforwardness!
Mel Gibson was drunk and said anti-Semitic things, and the whole Jewish people united and used their own power to ban Mel Gibson for eight years, and it was because the Jews were united and ruthless enough that no one dared to insult them easily.
Chinese are just too good at talking, so people feel like they are bullies!
Sharon Stone apologized, but it was only because her sand-ridden brain finally realized that she was wrong, and she deservedly apologized.
However, whether to forgive Sharon Stone or not, that is the Chinese's own business, some are, we can forgive, but some things, we refuse.
