Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Human Heart
Persecution paranoia is a common problem among Chinese filmmakers.
Especially the great directors!
"The cliff is that my peers are jealous of my talent!"
"Wuji" was spoofed, and Brother Chen Kai said, 'People can't be shameless to this extent';
After the release of "Private Custom", there were many bad reviews, and Feng Xiaogang posted seven Weibo posts in a row to scold film critics;
After the release of "Nine-Story Demon Tower", the score was brushed into an 'L' shape, but Lu Chuan said in an interview, "We are hacked!"
Great, my heart is so big!
This is also the best way for them to vent after they make bad movies and are criticized by the public, understand!
So "Charlotte's Troubles" did not achieve the expected box office results, Liu Hongtao couldn't sit still, and his intuition told him that his "Charlotte" should have become the second 'Thai embarrassment', and judging from the box office trend of the National Day file, "Charlotte" does have a very high chance of becoming a hit!
Now it has lost hundreds of millions of box office, except for the audience diversion brought by the release of "Carol", the main reason must be that it has been hacked!
A lot of bad comments and piracy flooded the Internet, and the cliff was premeditated!
"Charlotte's Troubles is a good movie, I dare to say that it is definitely a benchmark for Chinese comedy films, but unfortunately, it should be the inferior means of some peers, resulting in it not reaching the water quality it should have!
On the evening of October 14th, Liu Hongtao wrote this passage directly on Weibo, with pictures of pirated resources from major post bars and forums.
Then, Shen Lin was bombarded!
Nonsense, everyone knows that this 'double standard' must refer to Shen Lin.
……
To be honest, it's a very bad thing to put a pirated version of a movie directly on the Internet.
Shen Lin's cultivation and morality determined that it was impossible for him to do such a thing.
But it's such a coincidence, when "Carol" was released, the biggest opponent was "Charlotte".
At the beginning, when "Carol" premiered, many media put up the slogan "Can the Palme d'Or resist a domestic comedy?", which was clearly provocative.
Domestic comedies have always been the main force in creating box office miracles, and "Charlotte" has such conditions.
In addition, after so many years of hard work, the reputation and the quality of the actors have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and many people are their loyal fans.
After so many years of film career, Shen Lin has also proved himself to be a good director.
To tell the truth, originally many people watched the positive PK of the two movies with a quiet appreciation attitude.
Unexpectedly, after the release of "Carol", the box office of "Charlotte" fell off a cliff.
At the same time, piracy is flooding the Internet.
Not to mention Liu Hongtao, even many ordinary people wonder if Shen Lin has done something.
Originally, everyone was very keen on conspiracy theories, otherwise, Fang Zhouzi would not have cared so much about the 'artificial Han Shao' at the beginning.
In addition, in order to promote "Charlotte", Liu Hongtao has long said on Weibo that Shen Lin is very optimistic about this movie and hopes to participate in the inside story of the distribution.
Now that this is happening, everyone suspects that he is normal.
At the same time, some peers also stood up and poured all kinds of dirty water on Shen Lin, saying that he was arrogant and arrogant, and that he disrespected people.
In short, in just a few hours, there was a big wave of black Shen on the Internet!
"Garbage is coming, a cancer that hinders the development of domestic films!"
"Hmph! I used to like you very much, but now I know that you are this kind of person, and I will never look at you again, bye!"
"The three views are all shattered, what about the single heroine, Shen Lin, scumbag! I'm sorry, I went to the wrong set, Sorry..."
"Shen Lin is not the Shen Lin of the year, since "Super Body", he has been a little Jiang Lang talented, hey! I should still watch American blockbusters when watching movies, don't say it, I'm going to kneel and lick my American father!"
'Damn, I'm so wronged!'
Aggrieved and painful, Shen Lin felt a kind of indefensible mood.
"First, Zhao Liying's studio is a professional film that adheres to legal procedures..."
Shen Lin wanted to write two sentences to defend himself, but he always felt a bit too much to write.
Just sent a 'sigh...', and then hidden.
I didn't expect such a simple sigh to directly detonate the whole network!
By the time Shen Lin logged in to Weibo again the next day, this information had become the first hot search, with 78.57 million retweets, 8.7 million comments, and 1.37 million likes on the same day!
……
"Recently, a lot of people have poured dirty water on Shen Lin's body, I don't know why, maybe it's because Mu Xiu is destroyed by the forest wind.
Let's analyze Shen Lin.
First of all, he is very hardworking, after becoming famous at the age of 17, he maintains the pace of three to four books a year, and the same is true for entering the film industry, maintaining a very high creative enthusiasm, bringing us an average of two works per year;
There is awe, don't be vain slogans, as long as the most down-to-earth progress, once said, 'If one day, I am no longer sincere about movies, I will choose to leave';
has ideals, always believes that good things are about to happen, and always unswervingly supports domestic films, take a closer look at the batch of outstanding directors and actors who have poured out in the past few years, which one has nothing to do with Shen Lin?
has the ability, directed the second film "Those Years, The Girl We Chased Together" directly brought domestic films into the era of one billion box office; the third film "Detective Chinatown" has stepped into the box office of two billion, after entering Hollywood, "Dallas Buyers Club" created a miracle and directly became the youngest winner of the best film, and a "Super Body" has won a global box office of more than 900 million US dollars, and this year's "Carol" won the Palme d'Or;
Such a resume, placed on anyone, is worthy of appreciation!
Since when did many people start to hate him?
Maybe it's because of his stubbornness, he doesn't like actors with bad line skills, never uses artists like any traffic, and never likes bad movies;
Or is his strength scaring a lot of people?
In recent years, Chinese movies can only watch Shen Lin, which seems to have become the mainstream voice
This year is different, many directors are beginning to show their edge, and many film and television production companies are slowly moving towards the right track, but Shen Lin's existence is still like a roadblock, he blocked these people!
As these people relieved themselves, they began to attack Shen Lin intensively, wanting to use him as a stepping stone to success!
Shen Lin is already the new business card of Chinese cinema abroad, many young foreigners mention Chinese directors, the first thing that comes to mind is Shen Lin, even Hollywood has always been eager for him, I heard that he rejected more than five project plans, just to be able to bring new Chinese films to Chinese audiences.
And then what about such a respected director who has been slandered so badly by some people in China, to be honest, I really feel unworthy for him!
If you have the ability, you can defeat him head-on! Isn't it good to have a good competition? Some people have to fight this kind of public opinion war that splashes the other side's dirty water and disgusting, and wastes money on intrigue.
There is a pirated version of "Charlotte", is there no pirated version of "Carol"?"
Justice is at ease in people's hearts, and sometimes, being a man depends on actions rather than words!
