Chapter 2567: All Scum (Part 2)

The reason why someone laughed again was that according to Feng Yiping's sentence structure, it was not difficult to guess the following, "In fact, this is mainly a courtesy" and so on.

"Of course, I think the reason why such a letter of appointment was issued to Mr. Spielberg was not without the intention of relying on his fame. We all know that Spielberg is very popular both in China and the United States,"

Demi wanted to laugh a little, this was really hurtful.

This statement clearly said, Spielberg, we actually value your popularity, just like a company invites a star to endorse its own company.

So, do you think we value your talent?

Don't be too self-indulgent!

"In addition, according to the accurate information I have received, Spielberg's resignation as the artistic consultant of the opening ceremony is actually not true," Feng Yiping broke another piece of news.

"Oh? Are you saying that Mr. Spielberg is still working on the opening ceremony..."

"No, no," Feng Yiping shook his head, "The reason why this is not true is that, strictly speaking, Spielberg is not the artistic consultant for the opening ceremony,"

Demi was stunned, "Is that so?" She hurriedly flipped through her information, "But this was disclosed by the relevant Chinese departments a long time ago,"

"Indeed, the Olympic Committee once issued a letter of appointment to Spielberg, but he did not sign the relevant documents before the deadline of May 10 last year, so strictly speaking, he is not the artistic consultant for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games,"

This is the news that Feng Yiping inquired from the Olympic Committee, and it is naturally correct.

"This is easy to confirm, because, in fact, before Spielberg solemnly announced his resignation as a consultant, his spokesperson mentioned this in an interview, and they did not sign the relevant documents,"

"So Demi, the situation is probably like this: I happened to meet you on the road at dinner time, so I said to you, I will treat you to dinner,"

Demi smiled and combed her hair, "Okay! Because, for many people, this is less than the opportunity to participate in the Olympics,"

Ma Ling, who was watching from the outside with her hands folded, smiled, wishful thinking!

Feng Yiping also smiled, this host is really cooperative.

"Then you feel that without you, I can't have this dinner, and then on the way to the restaurant, you first announced to the public that I must do such and such things better,"

"Then, for some reasons, you solemnly announced to all media: You will not have dinner with me!"

"I won't do that," Demi said immediately.

"Yes, I'm sorry to use you as an analogy. I think most people won't do that," Feng Yiping said.

The implication is that the great director Spielberg is not an ordinary person.

However, in the current context, not being equal to an ordinary person is obviously derogatory.

Demi looked at Feng Yiping and thought that he deserved the title of a famous writer. Such a simple metaphor clearly and vividly presented Spielberg's actions in this matter to everyone.

If you want to make an evaluation of Spielberg's actions in this matter, Demi believes that many people will use such words as "self-conceited", "hypocritical", "taking the opportunity to hype"...

In any case, a consultant who is not a real consultant solemnly announced his resignation from a consultant position that he did not hold. If he said that there was no hype, who would believe it?

This is also the reason why Feng Yiping, who knows the relevant details, has a lot of opinions about Spielberg at this time.

In particular, he solemnly held a press conference on February 12 this year to announce his resignation, which was completely in response to the actions of a small group of people who tried to politicize the Olympics, just to set a rhythm.

"I would also like to mention that although Spielberg was no longer an advisor to the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in September last year, in order to respond to his concerns, a senior Chinese official, the Chinese special representative in charge of the Darfur issue that has been hyped by many people, made a special trip to New York to have a long talk with Spielberg, explaining in detail the origin and current situation of the relevant issues,"

"including the measures that China has taken and will take,"

"Because we have always advocated making friends with everyone, rather than engaging in confrontation,"

"But we all know how things developed later," Feng Yiping smiled lightly, shook his head gently, and once again hit Spielberg hard.

He really felt that we were indeed too gentle when dealing with some issues and some people.

It is right to unite the majority, but sometimes doing so is actually equivalent to indulging some people.

Of course, it may be that the superiors are too cautious, but he personally has the strength and influence he has now, and he is still so young, so he can naturally speak freely.

"Can I ask what you think of Mr. Spielberg?" Demi tried to ask another question.

She didn't really expect Feng Yiping to give a positive answer to this question, but she still had some hope that he might cooperate again.

Feng Yiping really cooperated again, "I like some of his movies."

Demi felt that Feng Yiping's words seemed to have too many unspoken meanings, "Can I understand it this way, that you appreciate some of his works, but you don't agree with him personally or some of his works?"

It would be great if Feng Yiping could give a positive response to such a question again.

But this time, her expectations were dashed. Feng Yiping did not respond to her directly, but just smiled and asked another question, "Demi, can you tell me where you are from?"

"New York," Demi said immediately. There was nothing to hide.

"Very good," Feng Yiping nodded, "Then, can you imagine that New York will completely close Fifth Avenue and carry out a large-scale transformation as a whole, just to cooperate with the filming of a movie?"

"Impossible!" Demi immediately shook her head and said firmly.

"But our country has done this before," Feng Yiping said, "It was in 1987. For the filming of a movie, we took our largest and most modern city,"

"Yes, the city you mentioned, dressed up as a wartime city under the iron hoof of the Japanese Empire Army, closed the streets in the downtown area for a long time, provided hundreds of extras in costumes of that era to cooperate, and allowed war scenes to be staged there with bombs and fireworks..."

Demi opened her eyes wide, "This is incredible!"

"Do you know what is more incredible?" Feng Yiping said, "After the release of this movie, all the images of Chinese in the film, whether they are peddlers, heroes who dare to resist, or senior diplomatic officials representing China at that time... without exception, are negative,"

"Insensitive, ignorant, reckless, dirty, greedy, ungrateful..."

"In that movie, I can't find a positive Chinese 's image, and there is no positive description of the Chinese people. "

"But in that movie, a child born in a colonial country and benefited from colonial aggression is very ideal and positive. This is not to mention that the Japanese army has committed numerous crimes against the Chinese people, the people of Asian countries, and even the American people."

"Not only does it have the fighting spirit of courage and dedication, but it also has the excellent character of gratitude."

"That film spent a lot of space and used very beautiful scenes to portray and explore the human side of the Japanese army, which is the same as the ** army."

"The theme expressed in that film, I think, not only we who have suffered from their aggression cannot agree, but also those American soldiers who have fought against the Japanese devils in the Pacific battlefield, and the families of those American soldiers who died in the Pearl Harbor incident cannot agree."

"Feng, which movie are you talking about?" Demi was indeed a little uncertain.

"Empire of the Sun," Feng Yiping said, "a film shot in a city once invaded and destroyed by the Japanese army, with unprecedented support from the Chinese, but in the end it glorified the Japanese devils and British colonialism and vilified the Chinese,"

"The director of this film is none other than our famous Mr. Spielberg,"

Including Demi and Ma Ling, everyone present except Feng Yiping was sighing at this time, it turned out that Spielberg was such a Spielberg!

"I can be sure that New York will never accept such a thing," Demi said.

She was very sure that if she dared to do such a thing to New York, it would be boycotted by all New Yorkers.

"But after that, we still treated Spielberg very courteously, and then you can see the final result,"

"So, what can I say to Mr. Spielberg?" Feng Yiping shook his head and chuckled, not hiding the mockery on his face.
