Spielberg didn't realize the energy behind Li Mu's saying, "Chinese netizens still have five seconds to reach the battlefield".
Chinese netizens often have friction with each other. Because of games, idols, regions and x-packs, there are many reasons for friction. The scale of friction varies from 1v1 to hundreds of thousands of people at the same time. Almost all the time, it is staged in the network, but it rises to nationalism With the height of patriotism, these netizens usually look like a group of scattered netizens, they will abandon all prejudices and discord in an instant, quickly gather together and go out in unison.
At this moment, under Zhao Kang's command, tens of thousands of water forces started at the same time, and a large number of comments related to "the last samurai" have sprung up on the whole Chinese Internet, which can be described as overwhelming.
Chinese netizens were originally protesting on the domestic Internet, but few people know how to send this kind of protest to overseas websites. Now, a large number of hands-on teaching contents have sprung up on the Internet. Even a netizen who does not know English words can finish posting on major websites in the United States step by step according to the course.
American netizens who are protesting against "the last samurai" and Tom Cruise on major websites suddenly find that there are a large number of almost identical themes and messages on the website, and the contents of these messages are almost astonishing to American netizens.
The website is full of "netizens from XX Province in China come to support us". I don't think it's any good to see one or two of them occasionally. But when such content is everywhere, American netizens are completely shocked.
Looking at this scale, at least tens of millions or even more Chinese netizens came to express their solidarity. In their message, they strongly condemned "the last warrior". This position is completely consistent with all American netizens, which makes American netizens excited involuntarily.
So many Chinese netizens have come to support us, which not only makes us Netizens feel that there is a strong alliance around them, but also makes them feel that they are totally loyal to justice and are defending it.
Many American netizens even felt that the influx of a large number of Chinese netizens at this moment was just like the feeling of the rohans when they saw the arrival of the Elven reinforcements before the battle of helm Valley in the second mile of the Lord of the rings.
The reinforcements across ethnic groups rushed to the battlefield, which immediately changed the situation of the whole "war". The influence of the whole event immediately increased to more than one level. While thanking the support and solidarity of Chinese netizens, American netizens changed the path and starting point of the protest.
Now, "the last samurai" has hurt not only the hearts of the American people, but also the Americans who died in the hands of the Japanese army in World War II. It has hurt the hearts of the Chinese people even more, and it is even more ashamed of tens of millions of Chinese people who died in the Japanese invasion of China.
At this moment, Chinese netizens and American netizens quickly became one because they share the same values and enemies, and in an instant, they narrowed the deep sense of distance in their hearts. American netizens thanked Chinese netizens on the Internet one after another for their efforts. Although they didn't understand the language, their expressions were universal, so American netizens returned to almost every Chinese netizen who came to support them I repeated the thumbs row by row.
Such a large influx of Chinese netizens has a huge impact on the Internet in the United States. This kind of large-scale spontaneous action of netizens has never appeared in the history of the Internet in the United States, nor in the history of the Internet in the whole world. Moreover, such large-scale spontaneous action is transnational and transcontinental, so this action is more consistent with Different meanings.
All major media in the United States began to pay attention to the event. Many TV media, including CNN, reported the event to the whole North America and even the world in the form of emergency broadcast that night. The unity and cooperation of Chinese Internet users and American Internet users perfectly explained what one plus one is more than two.
There are many online media that have carried out all-round follow-up reports on the large-scale actions of Chinese netizens. Among them, there is a portal website mainly composed of college students, which gives Chinese netizens a general name - army of justice, the teacher of justice. As soon as the name is launched, it is immediately sought after by the vast number of American netizens. Even American netizens have learned to repay the good for the bad Have translated software, or ask for advice from friends who can speak Chinese, reply to Chinese netizens in Chinese everywhere on the Internet. The most popular version is: "dear Chinese friends, thank you, you are the teacher of justice!"
With 100% mutual recognition and excellent online interaction between Huaxia and American netizens, it has greatly promoted the influence of opposing and resisting the action of "the last warrior".
Tom Cruise is going crazy in New Zealand.
The Internet is full of negative news and comments about him. Almost every netizen who opposes the movie will scold him. Tom Cruise is almost completely submerged by these comments, and even his fans are at the same time defecting or disappearing. In the face of strong social pressure, Tom Cruise is almost on the verge of collapse.At this time, the agent was worried in the United States. Seeing that the situation was made more passive by Chinese netizens, he dared not hesitate to call Tom Cruise at once.
At the moment of the call, the agent immediately said to Tom Cruise, "Tom, the situation is completely out of control now. This event is likely to cause a big earthquake in Hollywood. I advise you to hurry back to your country now and not stay in New Zealand!"
Tom Cruise subconsciously asked, "what about this movie?"
"Still thinking about the movie!" "I'll make it clear to you that this movie is the $140 million Titanic. It's on the rocks now. If you can survive by jumping off the ship now, even if you're in a mess, you can at least save your life. But if you're later, you can only sink with the ship!"
Tom Cruise was shocked and asked subconsciously, "what do you mean?"
The agent said without hesitation: "I mean very simply, you go back to China immediately, and then hold a press conference. The core of the conference is two points: first, apologize to the people all over the world immediately, admit and reflect on your mistakes, and the attitude must be extremely sincere without any concealment; second, unilaterally announce to quit the last samurai play immediately The group, no longer associated with the film, prays for the audience's forgiveness. "
Tom Cruise sighed deeply and said: "in this case, I will pay a lot of money to each other according to the contract, and, you know, if I apologize, it's equivalent to that I admit that this film is promoting the extreme bushido spirit, and it's equivalent to that I stand on the opposite side of the extreme bushido spirit. In this case, I may offend in the future The whole Japanese audience! "
Speaking of this, Tom Cruise added: "and Sumitomo You know, they are the investors behind this movie. If I betray them to protect myself now, they will retaliate against me in all aspects in the future... "
The agent was in a hurry, and couldn't help but burst his tongue and said, "shit! Are you stupid?! If you quit now, you'll just lose some money! But it can help you to save a lot of audiences. Remember, you are an actor, a world actor. Even if the whole Japanese audience hates you, how about it? You also have a billion or so audiences in North America and Europe. As long as they can forgive you, you can make a comeback. Even if Sumitomo's people are targeting you, how can they control the world? If he has this ability, then how can this event be so big? This incident just proves that they are not as powerful as the legendary influence. In front of the public opinion, their influence is not even a fart! "
Later, the agent warned, "Tom, there is only one chance to please the public and come first, get first!"! If you don't hurry to jump into the boat and stand in line this time, if warner can't bear the pressure and they announce to stop shooting the film first, you will be doomed. If all the people in the world except Japanese boycott you, then you will really have no way to live! "
Tom Cruise's agent has been working with him for nearly 20 years, and they have become very close friends. At this time, the agent suddenly blurted out. He was not really angry, but he thought about what the agent had just said.
It's true that I stepped on the thunder this time. I didn't expect to arouse such great public indignation at once. In this case, it would be unwise if I wanted to stay on this dangerous ship.
Tom Cruise got on the ship at first because he admired the ship for a long time and wanted to get on the big capital behind it. But in this situation, it's really hard for the ship to sustain. If he doesn't jump, it's really doomed.
What's more, the agent just said a sentence that woke him up completely. Warner may not be able to hold on to such a big pressure now. So many netizens are boycotting the movie now. As long as warner can't bear it, he will stop the movie.
Now there is one thing that he agrees with extremely. There is only one chance to please the people, no matter who is himself, Warner or Edward Zwick. Whoever is the first in the three parties to turn around will be the first one to return, and seize the last good feeling in front of the people.
If we wait for the director to stop shooting and Warner to stop shooting, we will not have any initiative, but become the stubborn one in the eyes of the public!
Thinking of this, Tom Cruise has made a decision in his mind. He will go back to Hollywood as soon as his agent says, apologize to the global audience, and draw a clear line with the film.
After making this decision, Tom Cruise immediately became nervous again, because he suddenly realized that he was in a very passive situation.
Warner is in Hollywood, Edward has gone to Hollywood, and he is in far away New Zealand. As long as either of them can figure it out, they can hold a press conference in Hollywood within an hour. However, he is now in the northern mountains of New Zealand, and it will take at least 24 hours to get back. Besides, he must hold a press conference in Hollywood OK, so I have to hurry back, and I can only pray for God's blessing. I hope they haven't made a decision before I go backSo Tom Cruise said to his agent, "I'll go back now. You'll keep an eye on Hollywood. If you have any information, please contact me in time!"
