Chapter 433: The topic is hot, and the movie is not cold
"Ming, your experience is very exciting, are your funds still in Japan?"
Oprah's late on-the-spot play made Sun Ziming smile bitterly, "Dear lady, you want to ask me about Japanese housing prices, right?" Can I not answer? β
βYes! NoοΌ β
This was broadcast live to a national audience, and Sun Ziming had no choice but to bite the bullet and deal with it, "Japan's housing prices will definitely plummet, but when will they plummet, this is beyond our ability to gather intelligence." However, if you are interested, just pay attention to the time when the foreign consortium sells the property. The day those predators arbitrarily flee is when Japan's housing prices collapse. β
Oprah immediately applauded and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the following is the time for financial programs, and audiences who like entertainment topics can change the channel." β
'Hahaha' Amidst laughter, Oprah continued to ask: "The collapse of the Japanese stock market, experts have analyzed enough. What I want to ask is, what do you think?"
Sun Ziming smiled bitterly: "Miss Oprah, I am studying literature, which is beyond my academic ability. β
"No, no, although you studied literature, you are also a good director, singer, composer, and quite a businessman. Since he is a genius, there will always be some different opinions. β
I am a public figure, I can say wrong, it is a matter of ability, but I must not say it. Sun Ziming pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and said: "The Japanese government's policy is not wrong, they have a large population, a small land area, and lack of resources, so they must transform their economy and guide enterprises to develop high value-added industries." What is wrong is that he has an irresponsible ally who forces them to open up the financial markets too quickly without providing any effective financial support. β
'Wow' The whole audience was stunned, and the Fa brother next to him couldn't wait to cover this bastard's mouth and scold other people's governments on other people's territory, isn't this looking for death? There was silence in the audience, and Oprah was silent for a long time before asking, "Ming, what do you mean by this, is this a Wall Street conspiracy against Japan?" β
Sun Ziming looked at the audience with his eyes, and saw that they were not disgusted, but were waiting for their own explanation, and he had some bottom in his heart. It's a free country, and anyone can criticize the government or public figures at will, as long as they don't close their eyes and tell nonsense.
"Yes, this is a conspiracy, because the U.S. government is in the hands of Wall Street, and the Wall Street elites are the best at doing it. Financial capital is like a greedy monster that only pursues profits endlessly. When the capitalists are accustomed to using the dollar system to harvest the wealth of other countries, they will no longer be interested in industries with low returns. They will invent all kinds of financial derivatives and use novel concepts to steal people's money into their own pockets, so that financial derivatives that should have been used to avoid investment risks have become tools used to tempt ordinary investors to speculate. A poor egg bets against a millionaire, and the average investor becomes a lamb to the slaughter,......"
Sun Tzuming's five-minute improvisation, which silenced the audience at the scene and in front of the TV, was biased in these words, but they were self-justifying. There was silence for several minutes before thunderous applause rang out, Americans are racist, but there is also a tradition of favoring geniuses. At this moment, Sun Ziming became a genius in their eyes, although his views were too extreme, but it was also in line with the tradition that artists are all leftists.
β¦β¦
After the program was finished, Sun Ziming helped the audience sign it, and the audience also asked Fa Ge to sign it out of politeness, and this signing was more than an hour. Oprah waited for the audience to leave, then motioned to the assistant to bring some small snacks, Sun Ziming shook his sore hand, "Winfrey (Oprah's name), your company in Chicago, why don't you like the Bulls but like the Lakers?" β
"Ming, I'm a public figure, and I have to like what everyone likes. Besides, the Lakers have a very good record, and watching their games in their spare time is not too exciting. β
This is another pseudo-fan, Sun Ziming joked: "Winfrey, I like Jordan and want to write a song for him, can you help me contact him?" β
βWhyοΌ He's a number of brushes! β
The current ball god is indeed a lonely hero, but Sun Ziming wants to make friends with this god, and everyone becomes friends, and it will be much easier to promote the film in the future.
"No, I like his never-say-die, can you do me a favor?"
Oprah replied nonchalantly: "No problem, I am friends with the owners of their team, and they must be very willing to make you a friend." β
β¦β¦
With his performance on the Oprah talk show, Sun Ziming once again became the talk of the talk of Americans, and a large part of young people began to see him as an idol.
"Sniper Phone Booth? I'm definitely going to watch this movie, it's definitely going to be a really cool movie. I love China Ming, Ming, I love you! β
"Yes, I like China Ming, maybe I will watch "Sniper Phone Booth". I like his comedy movies more than the movies with the theme of Yan sΓΉ, "Alonehome" is fantastic! β
Relative to the enthusiasm of young people, a considerable number of middle-aged people scoffed at his performance.
"I'll admit he's a film genius, and maybe a musical genius, but his knowledge of the financial markets and his conspiracy theories are wrong. The reason why a conspiracy is a conspiracy is because it has fewer people involved and fewer factors that need to be controlled. If the collapse of the Japanese stock market is a conspiracy, then the mastermind is God, and only he can control all the factors. β
"No, I'm definitely not going to watch it, I'm going to see Julia Roberts' Pretty Woman again. An investment of $1,400,000 and fifteen days of filming, this is simply fooling us! Of course, if China Ming continues to make comedies, I will still watch it. β
"No, I'm not going to see 'Sniper Phone Booth', I'm going to watch 'Ghost Love'. is a good comedy genius director, what is it deep? β
In the midst of the disturbances, Sun Ziming also took a pitiful crew member to major cities, TV stations, and radio stations to promote the film. The alternative promotion of "Alonehome" cannot be replicated, and they can only carry out regular publicity according to the company's arrangement.
"Pounce on your mother, I'm tired to death! Ziming, if the box office can't exceed 50 million, I have to strangle you! β
Sun Ziming pulled the baseball cap down, too lazy to pay attention to the complaints of the neighboring brother, if this movie is another ten years, he dares to boast of more than 200 million in Haikou. Now that it has been auctioned more than ten years in advance, the devil knows how much it can sell. Don't look at it now, "Sniper Phone Booth" has become a hot topic, but if it wants to pass the box office of 100 million, you can only ask Guanyin Bodhisattva for blessing, oh no, it should be the blessing of the God of Wealth.
Sun Ziming can not be a barber brother, but Jiang Peng next to him doesn't have that guts, "Brother Fa, for this type of film to be successful, in addition to the film itself being good enough, it also depends on the audience's acceptance." Just like "Gunfire" was sought after by professional fans in Hong Kong, but it was not accepted by ordinary fans, and finally failed at the box office. β
In fact, Fa Ge also knows this truth, but it is just about himself, and his mind is confused, "Isn't "Gunfire" successful in Japan and Europe? β
Jiang Peng said helplessly: "Brother Fa, "Gunfire" has a good reputation among European professional fans, but its box office is not good, and it doesn't add up to more than $15 million. There was a lot of serendipitism to succeed in Japan, and even Toho didn't anticipate it. β
Hey, now Sun Ziming has become a hot topic, but the movie is not favored by most people.
