Chapter 354 You Look Like an Idiot

Reporter He of NEW Wave, as its resident reporter in the United States, is responsible for interviewing major awards ceremonies. ↙Chen Yuan Literature{}.{} {CY}.{}⊿Especially in recent years, as domestic attention to Hollywood movies and stars has increased, in the past it was only necessary to conduct awards ceremonies at the level of Oscars and Golden Globes The NEW wave of attention, the popular awards such as the Youth Choice Award, the People's Choice Award, and the Saturn Award, as well as the major critic association awards, professional association awards, Hollywood Film Awards, and Independent Spirit Film Awards. More or less attention is paid to it, the domestic market is still very limited, and the total box office of the year is less than 200 million US dollars, which is not enough to attract the attention of Hollywood filmmakers, although there are not no people with long-term vision, but in reality Under the trend of socialism, it is still uneconomical to pay attention to the Chinese market.

Therefore, reporter He actually rarely has the opportunity to interview first-rate Hollywood stars. As for second-rate stars, whether they are well-known to domestic netizens and readers? It is said that it is a small crowd, but the absolute number of fans is not so small. Some second-rate stars in the European and American circles also have attention in China. But now at this time, tens of millions of netizens in China are still interested in a few blockbuster movies and a few A-lst stars. Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate in "Titanic" Winslet's heat has not diminished, and Russell Crowe is also well-known for his "Gladiator". California Governor Schwarzenegger, superstar Tom Cruise, and super-iconic Brad Pitt are all in this ranks. But the most popular foreign star is undoubtedly Daniel Sandler.

This popularity is created in many ways.

Daniel's works, Daniel's appearance, Daniel's wealth, Daniel's charitable deeds, etc., but one of the most important points is the attitude of Daniel's team towards the Chinese media.

A long time ago, reporter He of NEW Wave had the opportunity to interview Daniel, and since then. Daniel's team has been in contact with the media in mainland China, and they can get effective contact methods directly to world-class superstars. The so-called effective contact method means you call them. People will basically respond to your words, and they know it well. You find a phone number on the Internet and call it, and you have to go through five tests to see if you can talk to the real Buddha. Effective contact information for Hollywood superstars is very rare for the Chinese media at this time, maybe ten years later. When China's box office market even surpassed that of the United States occasionally in a certain month, the publicists of those big stars would give the Chinese media contact information, but now, except for Daniel, there is no one else who does this. This has given Daniel an outstanding reputation in China's domestic media circles. The media is the most powerful weapon to affect the perception of ordinary people. In addition, Daniel himself has all the elements to make people crazy. It is not surprising that he has such a reputation in China.

After the Golden Globe Awards this time, with the mentality of giving it a try, there is nothing to lose, reporter He contacted Daniel's assistant, Ms. Sally, and expressed that he hoped to interview Daniel.

Reporter He's hope is definitely not more than 100%. Over the years, he has also made many interview requests, all of which were politely rejected. This time he will not think it is special.

However, this time is very special.

It is reported that Daniel, who is preparing to join the filming group of "Night at the Museum" co-produced by Fox and DD Films, unexpectedly said that he can accept telephone interviews, but only 0 minutes.

Reporter He, who was overjoyed, hastily agreed, and the two parties met in about two hours. Daniel took a ten-minute break between reading the script to accept an interview with reporter He.

Ten minutes, if Daniel spoke slowly, he could only answer three or four questions.

There are only two journalists stationed in the United States by NEW Wave, and this time they are reporting on the Golden Globe Awards where the Chinese gathered. A special task force of six people was sent over, so after hearing the news, eight people threw themselves on the workbench.

"Ask 0 questions, from the most important to the bottom, ask one by one, and ask as many as you can." Reporter He is a senior person. Moreover, he was a meritorious minister, and he made plans without hesitation. Even a manager of the international department who followed from China had to listen to his assignments.

This is of course a very cool thing.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Reporter He nodded and continued, "You can't ask sensitive questions, and you can't annoy him."

This makes people easily dissatisfied.

Especially for those who come from China, NEW Wave is one of the four major portals in China. Usually, those big and small stars who want to make headlines and news have to take care of NEW Wave reporters. A big red envelope, usually for an event, the transportation fee will definitely not be less. In this era, there is no decent social network in China, let alone self-media. Except for traditional channels, basically the Internet with tens of millions of audiences is blocked. The four major sects dominate, so the reporters of the NEW wave are now the most arrogant, go out, let alone the small business in the entertainment industry. When social media reporters go out, the local government must be nice and friendly. This is definitely the golden age of China's "uncrowned king".

As a result, as soon as they arrived in the United States, no one paid any attention to them. Reporter He contacted Daniel Sandler, and they were not idle. After getting calls from various channels, from Felicia to Rachel, from Clooney to Ann Lee , I contacted them all, except that An Li held a group of Chinese media for a discussion, it was "one of my own people" who gave me some face, but the European and American Golden Globe winners heard that they were Chinese media, and they were not at this level. Ignore it, politely say that the time is not coincidental, and hang up the phone directly. Now on the homepage of NEW Wave, there are either comments from Chinese such as Bi Chenggong, Chen Qingsong, and Wu Shixian, or reprinted and translated by foreign media. Several group interview reports, the angle is not very good. The video of An Li's interview is also hanging high, which is extremely eye-catching.

It can be seen how heartbroken these NEW wave reporters are. But even after being hit like this, he was still very upset when faced with the red line drawn by reporter He.

A not-so-young reporter Wang was the first to raise a different opinion, "Old He, entertainment news, who wants to read some trivial questions about entertainment news? Which one of those topics that people read is not a sensitive issue? If you want to say these things If you can’t ask, then what’s the point of interviewing, we might as well go home. We don’t have to make jokes from our peers, saying that we have a ‘mind mentality’ and dare not even ask questions, we can’t afford to lose this person.”

"That's right. Brother Wang is right. Old He, the news you usually report back is just less tasteful. Aren't celebrities just actors? The audience is willing to watch. Are there any sensitive or not? We are all people in the circle, who I don’t know who, is Hollywood still full of chaste women? You think those sensitive topics are probably created by themselves.”

The manager of the international department surnamed Chen also spoke. He was so happy that everyone questioned reporter He. This time he led the team out, and it was said that he successfully completed the role and organized a "successful report on the Golden Globe Awards Gala". However, reporter He contacted Daniel Sandler. He must have gained a good impression from the higher-ups, which made him a little dissatisfied. He felt that this old He didn't know how to handle things. Even if he had a channel, he should pull himself to find it together, and do things secretly by himself. Yes, this is to take the credit for himself, isn't this hated by others?

Manager Chen was secretly refreshed in his heart.

Reporter Wang and Manager Chen took the lead, except for a colleague who has been staying with Lao He in the United States. The other six people from China all agreed that they should ask some topical questions in order to be worthy of going abroad for business this time.

Reporter He watched them coldly and began to discuss. Not in a hurry to speak.

Reporter Wang was the first to ask, "I have to ask him if Rachel Weisz broke up with her ex-boyfriend. Did he intervene? Rachel is also an award winner, so they happened to be included together."

"Then do you want to ask the child in Rachel's womb if it has anything to do with him?" Another younger, less knowledgeable suggested.

Reporter Wang hesitated for a while. Even a fool would know that this question is a minefield. This is not to say that Daniel is intervening in other people's relationship, and he is going to kill someone. He estimates that Daniel will be angered 10% of the time. Stealing a sneak peek at the silent reporter He, reporter Wang looked at Manager Chen.

"Director Chen, do I think it's better to be tactful? It's not good to make the relationship stiff."

Manager Chen nodded, "I think we can make a side note and add a background rumor or something. There are rumors that Rachel's child is not that so-and-so, who's? It's the man in front of her. Ask Daniel how to respond. Don't ask directly."

Several people were in favor of Chen's management's devious strategy, and the young reporter even paid a few compliments, which can be regarded as a wink.

Reporter He was standing on the sidelines, almost annoyed by them. He can guarantee that if you ask this question, it doesn’t matter whether you say it directly or in a hurry. People can directly call and want to interview again in the future. That is, there are no doors. He has a long-term vision. As China becomes more and more open, especially in the entertainment industry, those small households in the country can rely on their local advantages to make a living, but if they want to get bloggers, they will eventually have to rely on Europe and the United States. , If the relationship with Daniel is ruined, it will definitely be a super mistake for NEW Lang. He is still hesitating, whether to let management Chen die, or for the company, for the long-term plan, reporter He feels that he needs to consider a "best of both worlds" approach.

Among this group of people, no matter what they think in their hearts, regardless of the company politics of grievances and grievances, reporter He must be recognized as the "American Hand". After discussing one, two, three, four, five among the group of people managed by Chen, he reserved five spots for reporter He. After all, it was reporter He himself who was going to interview, and they wanted to go by themselves. Those selected are all with good grades, but in China, Xiang rarely has the opportunity to talk directly with people from the British country. Whether the level is enough or not, I'm afraid it is still not enough. Furthermore, since Daniel's team contacted reporter He, they might not even be able to meet him when they went. In just a few days after coming to the United States, before the Golden Globe Awards, they deeply realized the "principle" of this country. The time, place, personnel, and topics cannot be changed. What is discussed is what is discussed. Like Daniel , After two hours of direct communication is unique, at least at least have to check the interview draft.

Daniel is of course very familiar with the Chinese media at this time, and he knows what kind of virtue they are, so he didn't bother.

Reporter He turned to the computer to see a few questions they had prepared.

"How do you feel about winning the award?" The first half of the first question is quite satisfactory, and it is a compulsory question, and then the second half almost made Reporter He breathless. How do you respond to this statement?"

The second question is even more straightforward.

"We know that Rachel Weisz broke up with her ex-boyfriend during the filming of "The Immortal Gardener". It is rumored to be, that is, it is reported that you were involved, and there are also suspicions that Rachel's ex-boyfriend suspected her child It may not belong to the two of them, what do you think?"

The third question neatly summed up Daniel's scandal.

"From Jessica Alba, a young girl, to Collins Porsch, a member of the Porsche family, these two are your openly admitted girlfriends, in addition to Cameron Diaz, Scarlett Johansson, Natalie... Portman has had scandals with you, can you please talk about your views on mate selection and your evaluation of them?"

When reporter He saw this, he was no longer prone to emotional fluctuations, and he continued to read almost numbly.

The fourth one involved Oscar.

"Are you confident that you will win the third Oscar winner? If you win the award, how will you respond to the possible doubts? It's like the shady remarks after the Golden Globes this time."

It is estimated that after the Oscars, it is unlikely that Daniel will accept their interview again, so Manager Chen and others simply prepared all the follow-up report materials together, which is quite prescient.

Reporter He looked at the last question with "more grief than death".

"May I ask what kind of rights and interests you have in high-tech companies such as F2F and MB? It is rumored that you have a net worth of tens of billions of dollars. Do you think your net worth has reached this level? If not, what level is it? "

On the rd document, the black characters on a white background and the five-point font look very comfortable.

Perhaps because he realized that Reporter He had finished watching, the young reporter said proudly, "How about it? From awards to gossip, from the past to the present, from the entertainment industry to the technology industry, everything has been covered. There must be nothing missing."

Reporter He looked up at him, like, look at one, idiot! (To be continued.)
