Chapter 48 Joint Strangulation (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

"Dad! Why is Cheng Cheng live streaming? Isn't his movie released in mid-October? Why did he suddenly mention the National Day holiday?"

Jiang Wang received a call from his girl, and was greeted by a soft, questioning voice.

He was mentally prepared for this call.

Jiang Wang said helplessly: "Nannan, this matter is not something that Dad can decide. Cheng Cheng has offended too many people. You know, the entertainment industry requires social skills. If you act too dictatorially and recklessly, you will pay the price.

Jiang Nan was a little confused and complained: "So we have to let Cheng Cheng drink the water? Although I don't know how he did it, fortunately he is fine, but what if he is really injured?"

Jiang Nan received the news during the break of the show.

At that time, several staff members were concentrating in front of a mobile phone. The expressions on their faces were extremely wonderful, mixed with a series of emotions such as excitement, joy, and sarcasm. From time to time, they burst into shouting, shouting as if they were watching a monkey show:

"Look, he's been criticized by netizens again, so cool!", "Haha, he used to be so crazy on the set, now he's just a clown!", "He's fallen to this point, it's a joke!".
All kinds of sarcastic and mocking voices reached Jiang Nan's ears. She looked carefully and found that the person in the video was Cheng Cheng.

She resisted the urge to send a message to Cheng Cheng, fearing that it would hurt his self-esteem.

After understanding the whole story, she felt that it was unfair for Cheng Cheng, extremely unfair.

Why why?
Why is it always Cheng Cheng? !
Why do people always suppress him? Why do they always refuse to let him go?
This is what happened before, and this is what happened this time.

He had never done anything wrong, but he always encountered unexpected misfortunes.

"It wasn't me who asked Cheng Cheng to do the live broadcast. It was his own choice," Jiang Wang said with a long sigh.

Jiang Nan said anxiously, "Dad, can't you persuade him? There's no need to work so hard for a movie, especially at the cost of hurting his own body."

"Daughter, you don't understand." Jiang Wang thought of the dark years in his past and said, "Cheng Cheng is a man. He is doing what a man should do. A man should take on his responsibilities and try every possible means, even if it means burning himself out, even if he knows he will fail. He should still run towards failure."

Having said that, Jiang Wang continued:
"Nannan, Dad wants to apologize to you. No matter how many reasons there are, Dad did not keep his promise. Don't worry, no one in the entertainment industry will look down on us father and daughter again. I will pay back everything I have experienced today!"

“…Dad, you’ve been wronged too.”

"It's okay for Dad to be wronged. Dad doesn't want you to be wronged..."

"A clown!!!"

Backstage of the "Glorious Times" roadshow.

Lu Zhuofeng swept all the things on the table to the ground and cursed loudly.

The whole audience, including the staff and the leading actors of "Glorious Times", were all silent, not daring to breathe.

At the roadshow just now, a reporter was blind and asked Lu Zhuofeng what he thought about the "most desperate movie promotion in history" that has been circulating on the Internet recently.

Lu Zhuofeng didn't understand it at first, but found out through the reporter's explanation that it was Cheng Cheng's doing.

On stage, he naturally still cared a lot about his reputation, saying that this was also a way to promote the film, very novel, very youthful, and very worthy of encouragement, but as soon as he returned backstage he became furious.

The reason why he was so furious was that he felt that his own dignity had been challenged, offended and disobeyed!
Why are you, Cheng Cheng, and your bunch of nobodies unwilling to just accept your fate?

Why don’t things develop in the direction I designed!

Don't you understand why I put you on the National Day schedule? It's to make you die!
It's to make you suffer humiliation!

What are you still struggling for?

What are you still working hard for?

Isn’t it good to recognize the situation and the reality?

Anyway, you are also a rubbish director who transformed from a puppet, with a bunch of unknown actors, including Li Yang who became famous by luck and failed because of his real ability, Qi Hao who came out of a money-making internet celebrity, an unknown person whose name cannot even be remembered, and Wen Lian, a shameless stinky woman!

The most abominable thing is!

This group of people actually posed a threat to him!
Lu Zhuofeng took the main creative team to more than a dozen cities, but none of their works made it to the hot searches.

Cheng Cheng, by himself, was trying to attract attention in a way that was just like the low-class street performers, and he actually got on the Weibo hot search list! The maximum number of people in the live broadcast room reached more than 3000 million!

And the hot search term is "the most desperate movie promotion in history"!
He is old, in his sixties or seventies, but still working in the film industry. Isn't that working hard?

This audience is also stupid!
You don't understand what film art is, you just fucking watch the monkeys!

It is these ignorant and foolish audiences that have caused the current film market to become increasingly worse!
"You go out first!" Zhao Wenliang asked everyone to leave.

He is the investor of this film and also a long-time friend of Lu Zhuofeng.

After everyone was asked to leave, Zhao Wenliang patted Lu Zhuofeng on the chest to calm him down, and said, "Don't be angry. It's not worth getting angry over such a small character. You've already made yourself sick with anger."

Lu Zhuofeng exhaled for a long while before calming down, but he still felt aggrieved and cursed:
"Now all kinds of rubbish are allowed to enter the film market. You may say that this stuff can't affect you, but it disgusts you! I hate these people who bring all kinds of rubbish into the film market the most!"

Zhao Wenliang advised, "You don't have to worry about him. How can his movies cause you any danger? Zhuo Feng, you are the top director in China. This time, we are aiming to break the record. Your opponent is only your past self. We don't even take "War" and "Funny Road" seriously, let alone Cheng Cheng? Don't let him ruin your mood. Get your temper together. We still have to accept the interview."

Lu Zhuofeng gnashed his teeth, his eyes flashing with viciousness:

"I don't consider him as an opponent, but I can't let him keep grandstanding. Otherwise, he will become a shield for Wen Lian, and that will become a thorn in my heart."

Zhao Wenliang said: "Okay, I'll do whatever you say. When the National Day holiday is over, I'll contact people and ban him! As for now——"

He showed a sinister smile: "I will send a group of Internet trolls to mess up his live broadcast room. Doesn't he want to be a clown? Then let him be a clown all at once! We are going to fool him around and not go to the cinema. Do you think he will be angry?"

As he spoke, Zhao Wenliang couldn't help laughing.

Lu Zhuofeng also smiled and added: "And report it. Shouldn't such live broadcast content be banned? We are doing good things to prevent more people from following suit and turning the live broadcast room into a platform for vulgarity and ugliness."

Seeing this scene, Zhao Wenliang smiled even more happily:

Zhuo Feng, I will help you remove any thorns that appear in your heart!
-

At the same time, Xianghua Entertainment and Fanghua Beauty also took action and arranged to strangle Cheng Cheng.

Because they just can't stand seeing Cheng Cheng become popular again, and they will suppress any sign of it!

They have become accustomed to the fact that those who obey me prosper and those who disobey me perish, so how could they allow the existence of someone in the entertainment industry who clearly opposes them?
If this thing exists even for a moment, it will damage their prestige!

PS: Thank you for the 500 starting coins from the encounter in hell and God is Not in the World, thank you for the 100 starting coins from the uncle selling ramen, and thank you to all the big guys who voted, followed, and collected. I wish you all become rich and have good luck in love!
