Chapter 1352: Depressed Internal Injury

However, a few months ago, when "Death Row Walk" officially started, no media reported on the incident, and the film was filmed without people's attention, like a pebble thrown into the ocean, and did not cause any waves at all.

At that time, the major newspapers led by the "New York Post", "USA Today", "Houston Chronicle", and "San Francisco Chronicle" joined forces to build a ban alliance and completely banned the "Death Row Walk".

Until that incident broke out, people didn't notice that Hugo had joined the filming of a new work. If this process continues, then it is time for the "Death Row Walk" to bow its head and beg the major news media, even if the "Los Angeles Times" and other newspapers are willing to help, the prospect of the "Death Row Walk" is still not optimistic, and this will inevitably become an opportunity for the uncrowned kings to completely suppress Hugo. Even the "pro-Hugo faction" such as the "New York Times" and the "Los Angeles Times" can hardly refuse such an inducement. Confuse.

But it backfired, a report by Anthony Bond Stewart disrupted everyone's wishful thinking, and no one will forget what happened after that, in just three months, the entire North American press industry has been turned upside down, even if it has now settled, that profound influence is only now beginning to slowly take effect, and will even continue for decades, changing the direction of the entire news industry.

The "Death Row Walk" that suddenly appeared like a comet instantly attracted everyone's attention, and on the first day of the screening, without holding a premiere, it actually caused such a sensation, and such a momentum formed a polar contrast with the coldness a few months ago. So what about the original ban alliance? Where are they?

Colin Mailer is now very embarrassed, and the single day of "Death Row Walk" and "Twelve Monkeys" being screened at the same time can imagine the excitement of the news media, not only because of the fateful rivals of Hugo and Brad, but also because the movie that has been mentioned the most often in the past three months is finally about to be released, and because every reporter is gearing up to reappear.

Regardless of the success of "Death Row Walk", the forbearance of the uncrowned kings in the past few months can come to an end, and if the film is successful, they can naturally praise Hugo's excellence, which can be regarded as a real end to the entanglement between the two sides: at least on the surface; If the movie fails, although they will not fall into the ground, schadenfreude and cynicism are still indispensable, and they can be regarded as a bad breath.

So, almost without any doubt, all the media will be on the scene to report on today's pomp and circumstance. At this time, there was no communication between the Blocking Alliance, which had become virtually nonexistent, but Colin knew that USA Today, the Houston Chronicle, and the San Francisco Chronicle had all decided to go to the scene.

And what about the New York Post?

According to the report, they can fully praise the "Twelve Monkeys", and then try their best to support Brad and try their best to suppress Hugo, but they will also become the laughing stock of their peers in the industry. Because they reported on Brad itself, they were actually about this duel, this competition, and they were tantamount to slapping themselves; What's more, if you don't mention "Death Row Prisoner Walk", it is bound to fail to achieve the purpose of stimulating sales, and once you decide to report, you will definitely have to report the two works together.

This means that the New York Post's Coalition as a ban is not only worthless, but also a complete joke. As editor-in-chief, Colin will be disgraced for a long time to come.

If they didn't, they would have maintained their reputation, but with all the media doing their best to cover it, the one-of-a-kind New York Post had no sales to speak of, and it is conceivable that Colin would face the wrath of the head office News Corp. next, and his editor-in-chief position would be challenged again.

What's more, the other members of the original ban alliance are trying their best to report, and only the "New York Post" is left with a bare-bones commander, and it is estimated that there is not much "face" left, which is also a joke.

This puts Colin in a very awkward position, not just a dilemma, but a question of slapping himself in the left or right cheek - in any case, shame is a certainty.

After the release of "Before Sunrise" at the beginning of this year, the "New York Post" achieved a short-term advantage over Hugo, and Colin was very proud for a while, but unfortunately, Colin's good mood did not last long, and now it has made the "New York Post" and himself fall into an uncontrollable quagmire again.

Colin is now gritting his teeth, wanting to pick Hugo's skin, bite Hugo's flesh, and gnaw Hugo's bones, but even this cannot eliminate the hatred in his heart.

However, Colin must have two brushes to become the editor-in-chief of the New York Post, just as when the National Inquirer was preparing to report on the news that "Hugo went crazy", Colin rejected the proposal after careful consideration, which also gave the New York Post valuable respite in the past few months.

Colin knows that in fact, it is really difficult for the uncrowned kings to have a good face in the face of Hugo, not just the "New York Post", but this is the status quo of the news industry, they are dependent on news events and news figures, unlike the "truth first" of social news or political news, and the particularity of entertainment news also makes the relationship between them and public figures more complicated.

So, what Colin needs to do now is to calm down, wait for the opportunity, and then regain the advantage; If there is no chance to show up, then he needs to use Hugo to hype up the news, as he did "before sunrise", whether Hugo wants it or not, as a public figure, Hugo is the object of consumption. Colin should have taken advantage of this to make Hugo sad.

But the truth is reasonable, Colin knows these truths, but when it comes to actually implementing them, it is not so easy, and Colin can hardly control his anger.

After learning about the grand occasion at the entrance of the landmark cinema for the first time, Colin was faced with a problem, even if he was depressed to the point of internal injury, he did not have time to heal, he had to make a decision as much as possible, whether to report or not to report?

After much hesitation, Colin made a decision: report! Although the report loses the face of his editor-in-chief, at least the newspaper sales are guaranteed, and it can also make a fuss about the duel between Hugo and Brad, disgusting Hugo, which means that from the perspective of businessmen, the interests are guaranteed. That's the smart choice.

After Colin gave the order, he almost vomited blood, and decided to report, but in fact it was Colin himself who was injured: it also meant that all his plans for the past few months were just a joke, how pitiful, how ridiculous, how pathetic!

"Hey, look, isn't that Travis from the New York Post? I remember he was still in the New York Post, right? A reporter next to him saw a few familiar figures in the crowd and immediately raised his voice.

James looked in the direction, and then saw a team of four, led by Travis, a new reporter for the New York Post, but this reporter could only be regarded as just out of the ranks of rookies, not famous, and no one even knew the surname. It can only be said that there are not many reporters within the New York Post who are willing to cover Hugo News now, because they all know how humiliating it is in front of their colleagues.

However, the "New York Post" still attaches great importance to the "death row walk", and the four-person team is considered a luxury configuration for on-site interviews, with two reporters and two photographers, just to ensure that all the details of the scene can be recorded, and it is obviously intended to carry out the rhythm of special reports.

"Yo, buddy!" A reporter from the "Orange County Chronicle" next to James shouted, so that the fans at the door and other reporters looked over, and it looked a little different in the riot, "The 'New York Post' is also reporting?" Don't go wrong, the gate is on the right-hand side. ”

As soon as these words came out, a group of reporters burst into laughter, they all knew about the so-called blocking alliance, and naturally they also knew what it meant for the "New York Post" to arrive at the scene today. Travis's face was still not thick enough, and in an instant his cheeks turned red, and he wanted to burrow into the crack in the ground in embarrassment, looked around, and then led the team to bury his head in the direction of the entrance, hoping to become an ostrich.

Fans don't know much about these insiders, because the ban on the alliance did not play any role, nor did it make any waves, so no one paid attention to it, but most of them knew that the "New York Post" and Hugo did not deal with each other, so everyone began to coax, cheering and boos mixed together and overwhelming, so that Trusvi's group of four people was like rats crossing the street, and they were tried by more than 500 people on the scene.

Only you can taste the taste.

The uncrowned kings have always regarded public figures as consumer goods, but behind the supremacy of entertainment also means that one day, the uncrowned kings will also become people's consumer goods, first "Mr. Bond", and now "New York Post" reporters, should this mean the progress of the news industry, or the irony of the news industry?

"Death Row Walk" has not yet started to be screened, the screening is still in the making, and the news topicality has emerged in an endless stream, relatively speaking, the "Twelve Monkeys" that was grandly screened in AMC theaters seems a little deserted, although Universal Pictures has also invited many reporters, and thanks to the showdown between Hugo and Brad, almost every media outlet will send reporters to interview; But here's the problem: there are more reporters than fans on the scene, which is ......
