Meyer's apology was sent back to the YY English reporter at the scene, and YY immediately made a push to global users to immediately report this exciting news.
"Warner announced that the filming of "The Last Samurai" will be permanently suspended. Justice finally defeated evil. This is a victory for people all over the world!"
In this era, no media can compare with YY in terms of communication speed and efficiency.
CNN can’t do it, BBC can’t do it, and CCTV can’t do it either.
Only the Internet exists regardless of national boundaries, and the only super product on the Internet that covers the whole world is YY.
As soon as this news was released, netizens around the world immediately celebrated. As the title of YY News said, this is a victory for people all over the world.
Even Li Mu didn't expect that things would develop to such an incredible situation, with hundreds of millions of people standing in their own designated camps and working together to attack the same enemy.
Moreover, the results this time were really great.
Not only was "The Last Samurai" completely obscene, it also firmly tied the spirit of Bushido to Japan's World War II crimes, making the spirit of Bushido as infamous as sectarianism around the world.
This is a war about ideology. Once the demonic face of Bushido spirit leaves its mark on the hearts of people all over the world, no one will dare to overturn it in the future!
Li Mu became the biggest beneficiary of this incident. "The Last Samurai" will never have a chance to be released. Not only did "Flying Tigers" eliminate an enemy, but more importantly, through this righteous action of Chinese netizens, Chinese netizens are highly praised all over the world. The reputation of the "Teacher of Justice" spreads far and wide and has gained a lot of favor around the world.
This is also laying a solid mass foundation for "Flying Tigers". The world lacks understanding of China, especially the Chinese people. This is a very good opportunity. When the world understands the Chinese people and has a good impression of the Chinese people, , they will be interested in movies related to China.
Moreover, this time American netizens interacted the most with Chinese netizens, and the goodwill between the two sides doubled. It can be said that the most important victory for this victory is the victory of the American netizens and the Chinese netizens Justice League. In the future, "Flying Tigers" will present a game based on The story of Americans and Chinese fighting side by side is adapted from real history. With this incident as a foreshadowing, the future box office of "Flying Tigers" in North America will be guaranteed to a certain extent.
In Li Mu's heart, the most important thing is that he has severely damaged the promotion and development of Japanese culture on a global scale. At least from now on, Japanese Bushido can no longer be openly exported to anyone as a positive ideology. country, and Japan’s attempt to subtly export Japanese culture and values through film and television entertainment works will be much more difficult to do in the future, because with this case first, as long as Japan tries to follow the same pattern in the future, there will be a large number of netizens without having to take action on its own. Jump out and tear apart their disguise.
This significance is really important to Li Mu.
…
At this moment, Jiro Horita, who had been paying attention to the press conference, finally breathed a sigh of relief!
OK! After all, Meyer was still afraid and did not reveal himself.
He hid his existence in public and the true origin of the film, which also allowed him to let go of the huge stone in his heart.
What Jiro Horita fears most now is that he will be made public, because in that case, he will not only become an object of contempt for the whole world, but also become a sinner of the entire Japan.
Although I have good intentions and want to promote Japanese culture and Bushido spirit, my actions have brought an almost devastating blow to Bushido spirit. It is very likely that in the future, Bushido spirit can only become the ideology believed by the Japanese themselves, and even become the Japanese ideology. The ideology that people believe in but dare not speak out about it has brought Japan’s national quintessence to such a shameful level. They are not only sinners, but also sinners through the ages.
Fortunately, Meyer is somewhat self-aware and knows the information to protect himself.
However, Meyer had the heart to protect Jiro Horita, but he could not change the fact that Jiro Horita hated him.
While Horita Jiro breathed a sigh of relief, he immediately ordered his assistant viciously: "Go and prepare, I don't want Meyer to live too long in this world!"
In a word, murderous intent is revealed!
The assistant nodded immediately, with a bright look in his eyes, and asked: "Do you want him to disappear quietly?"
"No!" Jiro Horita snorted coldly and said bitterly: "Since he has not revealed my identity, then he has lost all his amulets. Just find someone to kill him in public. The bigger the influence, the better. Then Leave a clear clue! Let him be assassinated in front of the whole world like John Lennon!"
The assistant was far less scheming than Jiro Horita, and asked in confusion: "There is such a big commotion?! What clues should be left?"
Jiro Horita gritted his teeth and said: "Let the whole world think that Meyer was killed by the angry Chinese people because he made this movie!"
Japan's national quintessence has been disgraced around the world, but the Chinese people have gained an excellent reputation in this incident. This makes Jiro Horita extremely dissatisfied. He wants to use Meyer to kill two birds with one stone. On the one hand, he will be killed and the government will be lifted. The hatred in my heart, on the one hand, allows the whole world to see the crazy assassination actions of the "Chinese people".
Jiro Horita's move is extremely insidious!
…
At this time, Warner's press conference has come to an end.
Meyer was completely relieved, because he could see from the expressions of the media reporters that their personal emotions had eased. His sincere apology and remedy seemed to be recognized and accepted by the public.
Subsequently, the press conference entered the question-and-answer session of reporters.
A reporter from the media asked Meyer: "Mr. Meyer, I am a reporter from CNN. I have a question. Is the actual investor in this movie Warner itself or someone else?"
Meyer's nerves jumped and he said: "The actual investors of this film are several companies in the film and television industry, of which Warner accounts for the major share. Since you have asked this question, I want to apologize to the people of the world again. , it was our negligence in our work that led us to launch such a very wrong project, we are very sorry!"
CNN's reporter asked: "Mr. Meyer, I heard that this movie does not seem to be invested by Warner. There is news that this movie is actually promoted by a large consortium behind the investment. Is this true? ?”
Meyer waved his hands hastily: "This should be groundless nonsense. When this movie was launched, we had already signed agreements with several companies, which included the investment share of each company. If you don't believe it, , I can take out the agreement and show it to you later."
The other party then gave up and nodded: "Thank you for your answer, Mr. Meyer."
Meyer knew in his heart that although he broke up with Jiro Horita, it did not mean that he would dare to sell Jiro Horita. Therefore, he could only use Warner to be the promoter of this movie, otherwise if Jiro Horita was revealed, , I am afraid it will bring a lot of trouble to Jiro Horita and the entire Sumitomo. By then, the hatred between himself, Jiro Horita, and Sumitomo will be settled. In any case, he is no match for this giant beast, so he The fact must be concealed.
Later, another media reporter asked: "Hello Mr. Meyer, I would like to ask, as the director of the film, why did Mr. Edwards not come to the press conference? And the first actor, Mr. Tom Cruise."
Meyer smiled slightly and said: "To be honest, for us, it is a very painful thing to terminate a project that has invested tens of millions of dollars, but since it is our mistake, we naturally have to bear the consequences. So we decided to shoulder all responsibilities and not let our decision to stop filming affect Edward and Tom's own interests. As I said before, although the film has been completely stopped, we will still keep their salaries. I pay every penny and I don’t want them to be affected in any way.”
Meyer's statement was very high-sounding. In his statement, neither Tom Cruise nor Edward Zwick was responsible. The responsibility rested entirely on himself, so there was no need to call them out for this kind of press conference. Come here, and you will be responsible for these two people to the end, and the money you should pay is a lot.
The reporters present basically accepted Meyer's remarks, while Tom Cruise and Edward Zwick outside the door were almost mad with hatred.
It was clear that Meyer wanted to step on the two of them to get out of trouble, and now he made such remarks. It was simply shameless. He said that the two of them had no responsibility, so the two of them could really put their minds to it? of course not! The Internet has long been criticizing the two of them, because the two have expressed their yearning for Japanese culture and admiration for the spirit of Bushido in front of the media more than once. This is real "evidence"! How could people forget? !
The most embarrassing thing is that when the film was first formed, the two of them gave frequent interviews in order to increase the exposure of the film. During the interviews, whenever someone asked about their opinions on the film, the two did not hold back. Expressing his admiration for Japanese culture and the spirit of Bushido, now that the film's wolfish ambitions have been known to the world, how can the two of them be separated from each other
In their view, Meyer's shameless rhetoric perfectly explained why he left the two of them alone to hold a press conference, and also threw the two of them into the abyss.
Just imagine, two people who have publicly praised Japanese culture and the spirit of Bushido countless times, now have such a big problem with the movie, and neither of them has publicly apologized or even publicly stated their stance, and even if they can't continue filming the movie, You can still get the reward you deserve. If this kind of thing spreads, it will be doomed!
Edward Zwick wanted to find a gun to kill Meyer and count the balls, so he was about to lose his mind. He kept thinking over and over, how should he save this situation? This guy Meyer is so terrible. He avoids all problems perfectly. Although he knows that his grandson is full of lies, he can hardly find any flaws to refute him.
After much thought, a crazy idea suddenly came to Edward Zwick's hateful mind!
He has already thought of Meyer's flaw! Meyer's only flaw!
