#1174 Catastrophe

【92zw】The sky is really falling!

Mayer never dreamed that what he thought had been handled perfectly by himself, in half an afternoon, there was an unbelievable super reversal!

I just condemned the scumbag who leaked the script at the press conference, and announced that Warner would never bow to the villain, thus gaining the support and appreciation of the media and the public. The Internet has completely aroused public outrage!

After learning about the situation on the Internet, Mayer was so frightened that he was a little overwhelmed!

It never occurred to me that the American people would suddenly unite to boycott Japanese Bushido, and as soon as they resisted Bushido, "The Last Samurai", the super-produced film under production, became the target of public criticism in the entire United States.

There is no way, "The Last Samurai" was originally a very flattering thing to Bushido. It can be said that every word in the script is in the service of Bushido, and every penny of the $140 million budget is also in the service of Bushido. Coincidentally, the script has just been completely leaked, and Warner has just admitted the authenticity of the script at the press conference. This is the guilt of beautifying the spirit of Bushido. How could it not be resisted by the public?

In the face of patriotism and nationalism, almost all the media have betrayed Warner and stood with the American people. Only a small number of media controlled by the Japanese chaebols have not expressed their position for the time being, that is because they are now stepping up their research on crisis public relations. However, in the current form, the possibility of trying to recover the situation through crisis public relations is very small.

After Tom Cruise's agent in Hollywood heard the news, he almost lost his mind. The popularity of Hollywood's first-line big names has always been stable. There has never been a case like him who was suddenly accused and scolded by countless netizens. His career path is huge. Affected.

What worries the agent even more is that an extremely powerful public opinion vortex has formed on the Internet, and this vortex is involving more and more fans who are neutral and even partial to idols, and once these people are involved, they will They will be quickly assimilated. Maybe ten minutes ago, they were die-hard fans of Tom Cruise, and ten minutes later, they had already started to post scolding Tom Cruise on their own initiative.

The agent realized that if he didn't want to do anything, I'm afraid that when Tom Cruise came back from New Zealand, he would definitely be treated as a street mouse and be beaten by everyone!

Immediately, the agent immediately called Tom Cruise in New Zealand.

On the filming site in New Zealand, because the director temporarily returned to the United States to deal with the leak of the script, the entire crew did not start work, but Tom Cruise was extremely dedicated, even if he did not start work, he did not rest, but Japanese nationals such as Ken Watanabe Actors communicate the script. Like these Japanese actors, he hopes to do his best to make this movie the best.

Coincidentally, Tom Cruise and several leading actors are communicating about the next major scene where Ken Watanabe is killed in the charge.

Tom Cruise read the script in detail and couldn't help but sigh: "This is the biggest flashpoint of the whole play, Mr. Watanabe's burden is very heavy! Only in this play can the spirit of Bushido be highlighted to the extreme. ."

Watanabe Ken smiled and said, "I have been waiting for this scene for a long time, and I will do my best not to disappoint everyone!"

After saying that, Ken Watanabe looked at Tom Cruise again and said seriously: "Tom, in this scene, your role is also very important. You are the first to wear a Bushido battle uniform and appear in a movie as a samurai. Foreigners here, our investors want Bushido to be more acceptable to Westerners, and it’s mainly up to you to impress those Western audiences.”

Tom Cruise nodded hurriedly and said politely, "Mr. Watanabe, please rest assured, it is my honor to play such a role, and I will do my best!"

In terms of coffee position, Tom Cruise's status is far superior to Watanabe Ken, but Tom Cruise is very clear,

From the perspective of the investors behind this film, Ken Watanabe is the actor they value the most, because in this film, the true Bushido spirit depends on his performance for the most in-depth interpretation. The so-called male number one is actually serving him.

In fact, in the plot structure of the movie itself, the character played by Ken Watanabe is the real supreme one. He has not only been interpreting the so-called Bushido spirit, but also full of various human auras, with almost no shortcomings. Countless loyal followers.

Even a male lead like Tom Cruise must be convinced by his human brilliance in the play, willing to be his subordinate, and do everything for him. What is even more interesting is that in this movie, even The emperor of Japan is his student, and he has a lot of respect, which makes Watanabe Ken's character even more sovereign in this film.

Tom Cruise is also very clear that Watanabe Ken is the most valued actor by the Japanese chaebol behind this movie, and he is also the only irreplaceable actor in the whole movie, so although Tom Cruise is the male lead, he still Great respect for him.

At this time, Ken Watanabe said with emotion: "I hope that through this film, the world can better understand the Japanese Bushido spirit, which is the treasure of Japanese culture and the essence of the Yamato nation."

Tom Cruise nodded and smiled: "I believe that this movie will make the great Bushido spirit spread all over the world."

The best way to win a market is to praise the people who live in that market and their culture. This is what every Hollywood star knows. Tom Cruise may not really like Japanese culture and Bushido spirit. , but he is very clear that after putting such a label on himself, he will be able to better penetrate the Japanese market, be sought after by Japanese audiences, be paid by Japanese film and television companies, and even be familiar with Japan's super chaebol .

But he never thought that this seemingly shrewd decision and practice would bring a huge storm to himself!

After receiving the call from the agent, Tom Cruise was in a particularly happy mood. He even directly invited the agent on the phone, hoping that he could come to New Zealand to relax for a few days, because the environment here is really great.

The manager almost vomited blood, and said with hatred: "When is it, you are still so leisurely, do you know that the domestic Internet is now scolding you to the sky?!"

Tom Cruise frowned: "scold me? Who? Why scold me?"

The agent sighed: "I can't understand a sentence or two. In short, it's because of your participation in this movie. Are you convenient to surf the Internet now? I sent you some links on yy, you can watch it yourself first. one look."

Tom Cruise glanced at the Japanese actors on the opposite side and said, "I'm exchanging scripts with a few Japanese actors. What happened, just tell me on the phone."

At this time, Tom Cruise didn't realize how serious the matter would be. He thought it was nothing more than a few scoldings from fans, and it didn't hurt at all.

As soon as the agent heard that he was exchanging scripts with Japanese actors, he almost collapsed, and repeatedly said: "i'm-begging-you (I beg you) Tom, don't get so close to those Japanese, if You still want to keep your acting career, go back to your residence, turn on the computer, log on to yy, and take a look at the links I sent you!"

Only then did Tom Cruise become alert. Although the agent usually likes to joke, he has never used the word begging. It is very unusual to hear it.

So Tom Cruise said to Ken Watanabe and others: "Everyone, talk to you first, I'll go back and check things on the computer."

The other people didn't care too much. After Tom Cruise left, they began to communicate in pure Japanese.

Here, after Tom Cruise returned to his residence, the first thing he did was to open his laptop and log in to his YY. As soon as he went online, he found that his agent had sent him more than a dozen messages, and these ten Each of the several messages is a URL link.

Tom Cruise clicked on the first link and was a little dumbfounded when he went in.

"Why is it all a bunch of old photos?" Tom Cruise continued to look at it in astonishment. It didn't matter when he looked at it, and all of a sudden he raised his heart to his throat!

This is the first post that Li Mu posted in Tom Cruise's fan community. Now there are more than 10,000 replies. After reading it, Tom Cruise felt uneasy, what's going on? Who is trying to get Darth Vader on purpose, or is someone deliberately going against him? It’s just a movie, does it need to be on the line to the height of patriotism and nationalism?

Looking at the link at the back, Tom Cruise is stunned!

The following posts were all directed at me!

The tone is better, they are asking themselves why they want to make this movie, why do they want to wash the ground of the extreme Bushido spirit, while more people are directly scolding themselves in the most vulgar language, some people say that they are only for making money A bastard who doesn't care about anything, some people say that he is a Japanese lackey, some people say that he will do anything to make money, and some people say that he is a brazen traitor...

And almost every post that is responsible for oneself is enthusiastically sought after by a large number of netizens. There are thousands of replies to any post, and even more than half of them have more than 10,000 replies, so that the entire Internet is full of Tom Cruise. Tom Cruise searched for a long time, and he couldn't even find anyone to speak for him, even if he just explained a sentence for himself. The entire American Internet is full of accusations and reviles of himself.

This sudden change made Tom Cruise panic in front of the computer, and he couldn't even hold the mouse. He never thought that he would take up this movie and publicly claim that he likes Japanese culture on weekdays. His remarks will bring such a catastrophe to himself! 【I just love Chinese】
