On the surface, his publicity strategy seemed to have worked very well.
His crazy actions even triggered a catfish effect, causing a chain reaction on the internet in Europe and the United States.
Not only did the news media and public relations companies who had taken money from the Tianguang Group, but even some celebrities in Europe and the United States who had nothing to do with him expressed their views on this matter.
Celebrities in the European and American entertainment circles, whether they were in the film, television, pop music, or variety circles, all took the initiative to get involved.
Although most of these people expressed that they only treated Chen Guang, the Huaxia man's shameless and crazy actions as a joke, whether they praised or criticized him, they added a free fire to this matter.
Overnight, not only in Los Angeles, but also in the entire North American online world, almost everyone knew about this matter.
After UBC, the TV station that took money to do things, made a positive publicity, many TV stations immediately jumped out and fiercely attacked Chen Guang from a negative angle because he didn't take the money to do the work.
The same news even crossed the Atlantic Ocean and spread to another continent, causing a big sensation in Europe.
In London, Milan, Paris, Cannes, Florence, and Munich, these palaces of fashion and modern films, countless people stood up to support their film art and defend the dignity of the film industry.
Chen Guang's arrogant and overly purposeful actions were like pouring molten iron into a basin of water. It instantly turned the entire film industry upside down, and the entire European and American entertainment circles were boiling.
Everything was as Chen Guang had expected at the beginning. The news was basically negative. After all, there were too many angles that could be used to attack him for the Oscars with "Women". There were so many angles that he couldn't even count them himself.
Everyone could find ten thousand reasons to express their disdain and ridicule towards him.
But … it didn't matter.
He didn't care at all, and he didn't have the energy to care anymore.
Even if it seemed that he had become the enemy of the world, he didn't care.
It was just an ordinary Oscar Best Actor, which had never been his goal.
How many Oscars had been held, and how many Best Actors had been born?
How many people had won the Best Actor Award more than once, or even three times?
But no one had ever dared to bear the title of the world's Best Actor Award.
They didn't even dare to think about it or even mention it.
It was precisely because the essence of the performing arts was art. It was not as simple as one plus one equals two. It was too difficult to quantify, and it was too difficult for people to unreservedly acknowledge it. There would always be lingering disputes.
Even if it was last year's Best Actor Xiao Li, if he dared to say such words, he would immediately fall off the altar and spend the rest of his life in the ridicule and contempt of the world.
If it was possible, Chen Guang also wanted to consolidate his position through a few consecutive championships. At the very least, he wouldn't attract such a terrifying criticism.
Unfortunately, the Heavenly Holy Grail did not give him much time.
He was destined to be unable to follow the thinking and model of ordinary people to complete his career. He had to first make enemies of the whole world in order to make himself stand on the opposite side of all criticism.
When the whole world is doubting me, doubting me, and despising me, it is also when the whole world's attention is focused on me.
Only at this moment, when I am in the center of the whirlpool, can I use my irresistible power to instantly shatter all the dark clouds covering my head!
The employees of Tianguang Group knew how crazy their boss was, but with their realm and vision, they would never be able to understand where Chen Guang's madness came from.
When the public opinion on the internet further spread back to the country, the negative effects even affected the promotion of the movie in the country.
Gradually, voices came from Europe and America. Silently, a new concept appeared on the internet.
All filmmakers and film lovers, today, when the film industry is suffering the greatest humiliation, must unite and boycott this despicable and shameless Chinese Internet celebrity!
What do you take the Oscars for?
What do you take movies for?
What do you take art for?
The cabbages in your backyard?
The toys you buy for babies and children?
You can control everything with money?
Furthermore, you're not particularly rich!
Even Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, and Warren Buffett don't have such power!
Who do you think you are?
The son of Nike's chairman, Travite Knight, is worth tens of billions of US dollars. In order to fulfill his movie dream, he finally came up with "Legend of the Magic String."
He only received a nomination, but he didn't even stand on the podium!
He has more money than you, has more dreams than you, and is more focused than you. Even he doesn't dare to talk nonsense like this!
Who do you think you are?
So what if you have great achievements in other fields?
You haven't even brought out your movie. You've only acted in an outdated play, "Thunderstorm." How do you have the face to fight for the Oscars?
Every filmmaker!
Every person who loves movies!
If you still have dreams, if you still have perseverance, if you don't want to see the greatest art since mankind entered the 20th century become a joke!
Unite!
Boycott him!
Reject his news! Reject his hype! Reject his topics! Even refuse to talk about him!
Most importantly, you have to reject his movie!
Even if he gives you a free ticket, you have to throw it into your husky's kennel!
Even a husky won't watch his movie!
The voices grew louder and louder, crossing the Atlantic Ocean from North America to Europe, then crossing the time difference to rush to Asia and back to China.
There was also an uproar in China.
People in the world always had their own opinions. Chen Guang's die-hard fans, of course, spared no effort to stand up for him.
But there were still all kinds of debates on the Internet.
Some people said that he had embarrassed himself abroad.
Others said that before you scold him, look at his past, look at his achievements.
What right do you have to doubt him?
You don't even deserve to carry his shoes!
Others said that those who say such ignorant words don't understand movies, don't understand acting, and lack a basic outlook on life. They are all brainless young people who haven't matured yet. This is the standard "if you can do it, then do it".
If I can't refrigerate, then I can't scold the fridge?
Others said that you just can't bear to see the Chinese struggle for their dreams.
When the whole world is criticizing and mocking him, why can't we, who have the same yellow skin and black hair as him, give him a touch of warmth when the whole world is throwing cold knives at him?
Even if he fails in the end, isn't his dream of becoming the first Chinese Best Actor in history great?
People like you who don't have dreams don't have the right to laugh at his dream!
Others said that you idiots only know how to talk on the Internet. If you want to support his dream, then go vote for the Oscars. Do you even have the right to vote?
Anyway, we originally planned to watch this movie for Jin Shiyue and Jiang Yage. But now, forget it, we can't afford to lose face!
All kinds of thoughts were fermenting on the Internet and in reality, boiling like a pot of thick soup.
In the long history of the Oscars for nearly 90 years, there had never been a movie that had caused such a shocking criticism and rejection before it had even been nominated.
Although the entertainment circle had a tradition of demonizing people, there had never been a movie that had caused such a stir.
It was something that had nothing to do with people's simple lives. However, all of a sudden, in China, it had become a show of support and mockery for their countrymen. Overseas, it had become the bottom line to defend the movie. This matter had completely surpassed the scope of the movie itself.
With such a terrifying wave of public opinion, even Yue Hong, Fang Tianyu, and Lu Xiaoliang, the initiators, felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles.
They had thought that there would be a backlash, but they had never dreamed that it would be so strong.
Even if they stood on the street in Los Angeles and looked up at the sky, they could still feel the invisible pressure that filled the sky and the earth.
Yue Hong stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the fifteenth floor of the Lida Building in Wujing City, looking at the cars passing by. He also furrowed his brows. He didn't know what his boss, who was in Los Angeles, would think when he saw what we had done.
We …
We messed things up!
Will he go crazy?
Fang Tianyu and Lu Xiaoliang stood in front of the door of Chen Guang's hotel room, pacing back and forth.
They didn't even dare to knock on the door, let alone report the situation to Chen Guang.
The more explosive the public opinion was, the more frightened they were.
However, the ugly daughter-in-law had to meet her parents-in-law. They couldn't hide it for long.
Their boss was also writing an article on his computer. He liked to browse Weibo, so how could he not see the situation?
Forget it. If he died, then so be it.
The two gathered their courage and were about to knock on the door when Chen Guang's door suddenly opened.
"You two have been hanging around the door for almost ten minutes, right? Who lost money? Did you find it? "
Chen Guang rolled his eyes at them. "Come in quickly. If you have something to say, just say it. I'm busy here."
Lu Xiaoliang and Fang Tianyu anxiously followed him. They were worried that Chen Guang would suddenly slap them in the face.
"Boss … Erm … We are here to report the situation."
Chen Guang, who had just sat in front of the computer and took a sip of tea, put down the cup and turned around. "Alright, let's improve our efficiency. I just want to ask you one thing. Did you complete the things you wrote in the proposal?"
The two nodded at the same time. "Yes, yes."
Chen Guang took another sip of water. "Since it's all done, what else is there to report? Let's continue with the original plan."
Lu Xiaoliang took a deep breath. "But boss! The situation is getting out of control! "
Fang Tianyu's scalp hardened. With the determination to die, he said loudly, "That's right. We were too impatient for success. Everyone knows our purpose. They also know that this is your first movie. They also know the original position of the movie" Heroine ". The development of the public opinion is completely out of our control. Now, even if we spend 200 million USD, we can't suppress the negative and criticism, let alone 40 million USD. "
Lu Xiaoliang nodded heavily and almost shouted, "That's right! Boss! This time, you might really have the whole world as your enemy! The whole world as your enemy! You … Didn't you check Weibo? "
Chen Guang was stunned for a moment, and then he came back to his senses. "I just checked the website half an hour ago, and I thought you had something new to report. But it turns out to be this lousy matter?"
Lu Xiaoliang was shocked. "Boss, this … You call this lousy matter?"
Chen Guang shrugged. "Of course. If this isn't lousy matter, then what is? You don't say, my dad just called and scolded me. "
Fang Tianyu could not help but ask, "Ah? What did he say? "
Chen Guang wore a fearful expression as he continued, "You've scolded me to the point that I nearly disregarded my son."
Lu Xiaoliang said embarrassedly, "Uncle Chen must be joking, right?"
Chen Guang returned to his calm look. "That's right. He was joking."
Fang Tianyu and Lu Xiaoliang looked at each other. What time was it? Boss, why are you still panting while talking? What's wrong with you?
