Chapter 799 The New Generation of X-Men 3.0

"Handsomeness is justice, and beauty is truth!" Li Jie shouted loudly on stage. He preached his ideas to the young mutants in the audience in an impassioned tone.

Katie and the others in the audience were dumbfounded. Especially the older batch of X-Men don't quite understand Li Jie's brain circuit.

For example, Cyclops is pulling his girlfriend Qin Gray and whispering: "What does he mean? What does handsome mean justice? Is justice related to handsome?"

Qin pondered for a while, then replied in a low voice: "I think what Nightcrawler said probably means [a handsome man is right in everything he does] probably means this."

"Huh?" Scott was even more confused.

But Qin patted him on the shoulder and continued: "But don't worry, Scott. Because you are still very handsome. At least I like it very much." Qin smiled and kissed Scott on the cheek.

Well, since his girlfriend explained it this way, Scott should be right. He touched his kissed cheek.

Li Jie on the stage continued: "To put it simply, the meaning of this sentence is: a handsome person has reason in everything!"

"Sounds ridiculous, right?" What Li Jie said made the mutants below look at each other in dismay.

Yeah, it's really ridiculous. How can a good-looking person be right? This is completely illogical and conventional. Storm sitting under the stage raised her hand: "Wait, I didn't intend to interrupt your speech, Nightcrawler. It's just that I can't understand the meaning of what you said. Why is it right to be handsome? "

Li Jie shrugged: "It seems that you, Storm Girl, don't follow stars very much. I said, do you have any stars you like? The ones you like very much."

Storm thought for a while: "Marlon Brando, I like his "Train Named Desire" and "The Godfather" very much."

"Well, you are a mature and introverted lady." Li Jie said noncommittally after hearing Marlon Brando's name: "But you can't expect everyone to be as sensible as you. You like Marlon Brando Just because other people like Al Pacino doesn't mean."

"Do you know that there is a kind of crazy creature in this world. They usually lurk among us ordinary people, but they have incredible power. It is not a mutant ability, but another terrifying ability. This ability is called [ Cook]." Li Jie said seriously that the mutants in the audience had never heard of it.

In fact, when Li Jie gave an introduction to Professor Charles, the professor didn't understand it either. So he felt that this lecture could only be handled by Li Jie.

"Once this kind of people start obsessing over something, it's often unreasonable. Whether it's obsessing over idols, celebrities, or paper wives."

"They will stick to something with extraordinary perseverance, and last for many years. Such people are actually very common, but sometimes they are buried very deep." Li Jie began to talk about the key points of this plan.

"We need to reverse the image of traditional mutants. I think you should know what is going on with the image of traditional mutants." Li Jie pointed to Storm.

Storm: "The general news media in the United States promote [uncontrollable dangers, violent factors, bad neighbors in the community] and so on."

Li Jie pointed to Qin Gray again, and Qin thought about it: "In some European countries, some tabloids will write other things. For example, they will make a fuss about the physical disabilities that mutants may have. These tabloids They like to write eye-catching stuff in order to win sales."

At this time, Katie spoke up: "However, China seems to be promoting it better. Usually it is promoting the devotion of mutants or something."

As for the Chinese promotional film, Li Jie also watched it for this project, and he wanted to use it as a reference. But after watching it, I think it's better not to watch it.

So he looked at Katie and asked, "Do you really want to use the promotional video of the Central Propaganda Department, or follow their model?"

Well? Katie thought about those very, very [tall] promotional videos, and finally let it go.

So Li Jie continued: "Well, we all know the virtues of the propaganda of mutants in mainstream western countries. Alien, out of gregarious, dangerous, flammable and explosive, that's about it."

"In the face of this kind of publicity, it is actually very bad for Tuvalu. Because when someone hates you, he (she) will think you are disgusting even when you eat!" Li Jie was telling the truth. This is the current situation of mutants.

"So we need to reverse this image. What I said seems ridiculous, but it is a very useful truth. People in this world will always add points to beautiful or cute things."

"Human beings are very shallow. Most people look at the appearance and don't care about the inside. It's like you looking for a girlfriend (boy) friend. After all, the first thing you look for is the beautiful (handsome) one! Give up, we humans are so shallow Ignorant. At least most people are."

Li Jie said bluntly: "At least when I was looking for a girlfriend, I first fell in love with her because she is beautiful. It is because of her beauty that there are various stories behind. Maybe you want to know a certain person, But if the person is still very attractive, you will be more willing to know him (her)!"

"So things that seem absurd are actually the simplest truths that are closest to the truth of this world!" Li Jie stretched out his thumb and compared to everyone: "Don't think what I said is ridiculous, forming a team of idol heroes is what you need to do first step."

"Let people fall in love with you first, and if they don't follow you, please don't let them become black people. Only when the fans get bigger and the black people become less and less. Only then will some people be more willing to understand mutants. This is called Aiwujiwu. "

Li Jie gave a specific example: "For example, there is a very ordinary mailbox in Shanghai (to send letters), just because a certain star took a selfie here, so this mailbox became an Internet celebrity. Countless fans of the star go there Check in to take pictures, and even have to wait in line for ten minutes at the hottest time.”

"Even the local district government has specially planned and designed this mailbox, such as adding antlers to it, and then turning it into a scenic spot in Shanghai. Can you imagine? This is a city with a population of more than two The decision of a super metropolis with 12 million yuan." Li Jie explained what star effect and celebrity management are with very practical examples.

"So forming a mutant hero idol team is something you must do. Originally, Professor Charles should have come to discuss this matter with you. But for various reasons, he asked me to talk about it." Li Jie compared Charles Professor, the professor dodged a bit.

"This kind of idea came to me when the professor and I were chatting. We all think this method is highly operable. Tuvalu needs to establish a new national image!"

"In fact, politics is sometimes very nonsense. Culture shock and the establishment of a country's image are very important and long-term things for a country and a race!" Li Jie said this in a solemn way thing.

"You need to get used to dealing with things that seem ridiculous, but are actually beneficial to mutants. Because this is politics!"

"So this is a proposal that I discussed with the professor. You can discuss it. Our initial idea is to set up two to three hero teams. Ability is needed, but appearance is more important."

Li Jie stretched out a finger: "The first team is also the team we want to promote in terms of the number of fans. It focuses on the young people's market, such as young and energetic young girls like Katie and Iceman. In the future After all, it belongs to young people. You need to save the world, and at the same time, you need to make other young people think you are cool, so that they are willing to pay attention to your Facebook, Weibo, and cheer for you!" Some young mutants at the bottom chuckled sounded.

Li Jie stretched out his second finger: "The second team, I call it the Men's Team. This team mainly promotes the younger and more mature market, and does not win with youthful vigor. Instead, it wins with calmness and sophistication. In terms of ability, this one The team has the highest requirements. I propose middle-aged men like Cyclops Scott and Wolverine Logan as the main force. They have combat effectiveness and good looks, and they focus on the mature market.”

"Mature middle-aged people are not easy to be incited like young people, and it is not easy to change their positions to cheer for you. But they are the backbone of modern society. At least they need to change their traditional concepts a little bit. So the task of this team is also The heaviest." Following Li Jie's slow but firm words, the laughter and whispering below became quieter.

Li Jie stretched out his third finger: "The third team, I think it can be called the female hero team. It is composed entirely of female heroes. They are shrewd and capable, not inferior to men's abilities. At the same time, they are careful and gentle with the charm of women. Female heroes The team can do a lot of things that other heroes can't do well."

"For example, informal state visits, such as helping children in impoverished areas and helping local medical care, etc. Women have a natural advantage over men in this regard. Members need to show their bravery, but they also need to show their love and dedication. Sympathy. The members are composed of female mutants such as Psylocke, Storm, and Jean Gray."

"Here I have to make it clear that you must be voluntary and have considerable awareness to do this. Because from now on you will become a public figure. Because you are not only a hero, but also a hero. An idol who represents the country. What you do is related to the perception of the country by others. Every little mistake of yours will be magnified by people with a magnifying glass."

"You may have to suppress your own nature and need to do all kinds of things you don't want to do. Put on a mask and say those hypocritical and ridiculous things. You can only do things that have been arranged for you, and do things that fit your idol hero personality .Say those words that fit your identity! You will even lose yourself in the process, and your heart will be exhausted. So I want to say in the end, if you don’t have enough perseverance, you can’t become such an idol hero! Because in addition to saving, you also need to please Others, this is cruel."

Li Jie patted the table, and the scene was quiet. No one is whispering now, and no one finds the proposal ridiculous. Because everyone knows that this is not simply forming a ridiculous idol group, but an arduous mission!

"Becoming an idol hero may sound ridiculous. But what you need to bear behind this ridiculousness is the image and future of this race! I hope you can take it seriously. This is not a joke, but the beginning of a hard mission. Want to save mutants? You need to save yourself first. So! Let's start!"

When Li Jie's words fell to the ground, needles could be heard in the audience.

Icon hero? It's not as beautiful as it sounds.
