American TV series

Chapter 414: True propaganda, smear...

"It's hard to find actors in this book!" As soon as he returned, Chernin discovered the biggest problem.

"Trash, don't you know how to find Koreans? Do you think Americans can tell the difference between Koreans and books?" Sean shouted on the phone.

"This, Korean?" Chernin looked confused.

"Don't you know that Koreans know some Japanese, such as bagayalu, just to say it after they have done bad things abroad so that people around them will think they are cheats!?"

Chernin:!!!

Is the road so wild?

Is this a tactic?

"Don't worry, no one knows the book better than Bangzi."

If it’s to discredit the book, Bangzi doesn’t need to charge any money!

…

Chernin's speed is very fast. It's a task assigned by the boss himself, regardless of whether it has any meaning.

That night, New World Media temporarily modified a talk show.

The host changed to the most popular talk show host on the TV station. After bringing the topic to Benzi, he began to revisit last year's Sony acquisition of CBS Records.

A pantomime was performed on the stage. A tall man with a mustache walked out with his head held high and an arrogant look on his face. His legs were obviously abnormal and were on stilts.

Opposite me, a normal American, with a humble look on his face and a flattering smile on his face, nodded and bowed ninety degrees, which was the old standard.

The humble American handed a document to the tall notebook. The notebook took it and looked at it expressionlessly before throwing it on the ground.

Then he watched condescendingly as the American bent down on the ground to pick up the scattered documents.

The tall man nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand and petted the American's head a few times like a dog, while doing so he looked up and laughed.

The pantomime was short-lived, but the effect was overwhelming.

Even though the audience was a professional audience team that had long-term cooperation with New Century Media, they were still furious.

If it weren't for the contract issues and the previous greetings, several red necks would be unable to control themselves and leave!

The stage turned and the host appeared again, "I'm very sad and very annoyed. In the world's largest acquisition, Benzi successfully acquired CBS, the largest record company in the United States."

"This scene inevitably happened, and it was foreseeable that this was not the end."

"From now on, Benzi has a monopoly on CDs. Every CD we buy in the future will have to pay them. CBS's copyright library already belongs to Benzi. No, there is no CBS record company now, only Sony Music Entertainment, those

Classic American songs have nothing to do with Americans anymore, they already belong to the book."

"Americans want to sing these American songs, no, they are Benzi songs and they have to pay Benzi!"

"That's not the worst."

"What's worse is that Benzi controls our singers and uses them to promote their products, CDs, CD players, and music formats, and uses Benzi culture to invade the United States. There may be another scene like this in the future..."

As he spoke, the song started playing, and a Michael Jackson imitator danced and rushed out from the day after tomorrow, but the Japanese-style mustache on his face looked extremely dazzling.

After jumping from one end of the stage to the other, another woman appeared on the stage. She was a Whitney Houston imitator. This time she was wearing a kimono. The black man also specially made up a geisha-like white face and red lips. She also sang while singing.

Bending and bowing...

The effect of this round of imitation show is explosive!

According to subsequent statistics, when the program was broadcast, gunshots rang out in many places across the United States. Many people couldn't stand the excitement and took out guns to shoot at the imitation show on the TV, blowing up the TV on the spot.

Even if they are good-natured, many people will smash the TV set on the spot.

According to statistics the next day, more than 60,000 TV sets were smashed overnight across the United States, and most of the smashed TV sets were Japanese goods.

Those who are stimulated are not only white supremacists, but also many black people who hate the book and star fans of the Japanese imitation show.

This show is too naked and too damaging!

What's even more outrageous is that the next day, low-quality posters appeared in many places in the United States. They were all posters for yesterday's Japanese celebrity imitation show. They mainly appeared on the streets of major cities in the United States. This irritated the nerves of many people.

Early the next morning, the atmosphere at Sony Music Entertainment's headquarters was very solemn, and the air was a bit more depressing than before. All the American staff had straight faces and looked unkindly at the occasional notebook employee.

It's not that I'm trying to find trouble, I just want to see if these people have such arrogant expressions in private.

Although everyone knew that New Century Media was exaggerating the facts, Sony was afraid of causing American resistance after acquiring CBS. In order to eliminate the impact, it completely kept the original management system intact and rarely interfered in the operations of the record company.

I don’t even dare to promote Japanese culture. In the words of Sony headquarters, don’t rush, take your time. As long as the management is not stupid, they will allocate some resources to the book.

But I know I know, emotions are emotions, but I still can't help but think about them in my heart.

It's like the relationship between nobles and serfs is suddenly reversed. Will the serfs not turn around and take revenge on the nobles?

Even if the serfs don’t dare for the moment, what about the future?

At least the fallen nobles wouldn't think so.

When Sony Entertainment President Ye Tonikov arrived early in the morning, his face was so gloomy that he was about to bleed. Yesterday, the nodding and hunched man with a sinister smile in New Century Media was imitating him. Everyone familiar with this could tell.

After all, a big shot in the record industry and entertainment industry in the United States and around the world has been slandered like this. It's strange that he is in a good mood.

Anyway, early in the morning, he always felt that the eyes of others looking at him were full of ridicule.

But he still had no choice. They were just a record company with no publicity channels, and New Century didn't name them by name, so he couldn't even accuse them.

Of course, he can't do this either.

This is the urinal nature of the media in this era. If I criticize you, I will give you face. We all dare to criticize the president. If you dare to resist, try it.

If the relationship is messed up, you will be blackmailed every day!

If I offend you, you have to lick your face to apologize!

As for using other illegal means, this idea only flashed in Yetonikov's mind. No one in the industry knew that Sean was behind New Century Media, the umbrella company.

During the riots in Los Angeles, the umbrella men suddenly attacked more than a hundred people with machine guns in front of everyone in Hollywood. Everyone in the entertainment industry didn't know who didn't know. Are you crazy? That's asking for death!

Yetonikov had just arrived at the office. Before he could wait for yesterday, his secretary came over and said, "Mr. President, we just got a call from the Tokyo headquarters."

"I know!" Yetonikov's face turned even more ugly. He had already guessed what was going on.

The call was called back, and sure enough, Morita Akio personally answered the phone. He first offered a message of comfort, and Yetonikov accepted it.

Although everyone knows that this is just a formality, it cannot eliminate the inner barriers. In yesterday's pantomime, Akio Morita was the superior one, and the one who was embarrassed was Yetonikov.

Otherwise, what else can we do? We can't really have a quarrel.

After the routine consolation, he asked if something happened in the United States, otherwise New World Media would not start attacking Sony for no reason.

You must know that both CBS in the past and Sony Entertainment now carry out promotion activities through TV stations, which costs a lot of money.

Yetonikov can't figure it out now, so he can only say that he will immediately launch an investigation with his connections in the circle.

Akio Morita also promised to immediately initiate relations and do his best to suppress the negative impact of the matter.

It's just that the matter will definitely not wait for them to handle it slowly, and Sean is not just instructing the TV station to handle the matter.

Under Sean's instruction, Jonas, Yuri and others ordered the gangs below to do things, and their actions were very efficient.

In the morning, groups of different sizes took to the streets to demonstrate in New York, Los Angeles, Houston, Chicago, Dallas...all major cities, calling for a boycott of our company.

Various slogans appeared on the streets: American music belongs only to Americans!

Give us back our music!

Boycott the book culture!

Get this book out of the United States!

Some people held up a portrait of Truman with the slogan 'Kill the Japanese'!

Some even held up pictures of atomic bomb explosions!

In April 1945, after President Roosevelt died of illness, President Truman came to power with the slogan "Kill the Japanese." After taking office, he dispatched 6,960 bomber sorties, dropped 41,592 tons of incendiary bombs, and dropped 12,135 mines to block maritime traffic.

Two atomic bombs were dropped on August 6th and 9th.

Attracted by these parades, many fans of Sony Entertainment's artists also took to the streets to join the parade.

These fans cannot imagine what it would be like if one day their idol really had a Japanese beard and wore a Japanese kimono...

Regardless of whether the actual impact is so great, on the surface, the demonstrations in major cities across the United States are massive enough.

In particular, TV stations that were not too concerned about the excitement began to follow and report on the incident, and it seemed as if the entire United States was beginning to rise against Japan.

The most difficult thing is for the singers under Sony Entertainment. They have been severely mocked and their reputations have been damaged. They are still unable to stand up and face the public.

How to say?

Say you are not working for the Japanese?

Or are you saying that you can’t put on a kimono and grow a beard?

On one side is the company, on the other side are the fans... Damn it!

The broker can only put pressure on the company and must immediately stand up to calm the matter. If it continues, they will not rule out forcibly terminating the contract with the company for the sake of reputation!

Sony Entertainment is in chaos and is under unprecedented pressure. They have to cancel some events that were originally scheduled to be held in the near future. They don't want to have a parade crowd at the event and cause a bigger incident.

On the other hand, in line with the New Century's principle of supporting Fox and opposing it, Fox News began to analyze this incident since the morning.

After Sony acquired CBS Records, whether the copyright of those songs became the original copy, to whether CDs and other people's commercial use of songs will have to pay Sony.

After some legal debate, I found out that it is indeed the case!

Finally, we come to the real intention of Sony's acquisition of CBS Records. After some in-depth analysis, one group's point of view is economic. In order to promote CD discs, CD players and their music formats, CDs will dominate the market in the future.

One group of people believes that economic interests are used to cover cultural export, and their purpose is cultural penetration. As we all know, the United States has no history and its culture is at a disadvantage.

Good guy, this discussion suddenly made Sony even more embarrassed.

Whether it is economic monopoly or cultural invasion through standards, it is extremely objectionable.

The TV station also mentioned again the flooding of the American market with Japanese goods, and kindly showed off a Sony CD player. It was indeed very beautiful and cool to carry around. Compared to the large tape recorder placed aside...

Seeing the TV station giving free publicity to Sony's products, Akio Morita's face was gloomy. This was a compliment. In this case, the better Sony's products are, the more emotionally uncomfortable it will be for Americans.

When did American products become synonymous with backwardness?

The whole morning passed in a state of confusion.

Yetonikov was also a senior executive of the original CBS Records. The parent company of CBS Records was Columbia Broadcasting Corporation, referred to as CBS, which was one of the three major wireless television stations.

In the industry, Yetonikov still has a large network of connections, including Fox TV and New Century Media, where he has former colleagues. Intervention is not possible, but it is not difficult to get information.

The information provided by Fox is in cooperation with New Century Media.

At New Century Media, Yetonikov had to waste a lot of favors before getting a piece of news that made Yetonikov's head hurt. The big boss suddenly ordered that all programs be forcibly changed at short notice.

As for why the boss did this, they don't know.

New Century is not like other American companies. Sean's company has such a high level of control that no one dares to object to the big boss's orders.

Yetonikov was blinded. All he could do was contact CBS, the former parent company, and hope that CBS would help suppress it. After all, CBS was responsible for its own record business, and this incident was not glorious.

CBS is also very embarrassed. It sold American assets to Benzi, and the label of succumbing to Benzi has been firmly slapped on his head. Whether it is Fox or New Century Media, they are competitors with CBS. If they can easily smear it, everyone will take action.

It doesn't sound soft at all.

For the rest, he could only tell Akio Morita about the situation. If he wanted to untie the knot, he could only go to Sean Rockefeller.

As we all know, Sean is arrogant, cruel, and moody... At least Yetonikov knew that he couldn't get in touch with him, and he was not qualified to talk to Sean.

Akio Morita is looking for connections here. There is a lot of American capital in Sony, but the capital only looks at profits and will not easily interfere in such specific matters. What's more, Sean is not small and it is difficult to offend, and there is Rockefeller behind him.

Woolen cloth.

But while this place was still operating, attacks from New Century Media followed one after another.

That night, New Century Media continued to break the news, continuing that Sony acquired CBS Records, turned American songs into book songs, and then targeted the film industry that the United States is most proud of. They are negotiating with Columbia Pictures, one of the eight largest companies in Hollywood, to acquire it!

We must take away American movies from the hands of the American people and turn them into scripted movies!

Benzi is aggressively invading the United States and exporting Benzi culture to the American people.

On TV, a man with a mustache and wearing a book suit was lying on top of a white woman, trembling. On the woman's face was a picture of the Statue of Liberty. Anyone who wasn't blind could tell that it was a cum shot.

'Yes.

Output...

Then, the TV screen changed. According to Sean's instructions, Columbia Pictures' Statue of Liberty logo was replaced with a kimono, and the smile on his face became lewd after a slight modification...

He also held a buzzing massage stick in his hand.

After this program was aired, everyone who watched the program went crazy.

Many excited people smashed their newly purchased TV sets again and refused to pick up the TV. They called New Century Media directly and scolded the TV station!

This is an insult to an American icon!

Yetonikov and Morita Akio, who were also paying attention, were also dumbfounded. This, this, this is too cruel. How can they carry out acquisitions like this?

Not to mention them, even Columbia Pictures and Coca-Cola were stupid.

Considering the social pressure we will face tomorrow, the acquisition negotiations will definitely be temporarily terminated.

The next day, the media and public opinion exploded again. Yesterday it was the singers and fans who were insulted, today it is the movie stars and movie fans...

This time, without Sean's permission, the group marching on the streets was even bigger than yesterday.

Especially in Culver City, the headquarters of Hollywood and Columbia Pictures in Los Angeles, the number of people marching exceeded 10,000, and the city government had to dispatch a large number of police officers to maintain order at the scene.

The marchers blocked Columbia Pictures and asked the company director to clarify whether they were prepared to sell American films to Benzi!

The people marching were very excited. Who dared to stand up and speak at this time?

Columbia's top management went crazy and called Sean Pictures. Katzenberg didn't know what was going on and had no choice but to ask them to find Sean.

Uh, let Coca-Cola do it when it comes to finding Sean. Don't get involved blindly in matters involving capitalists and professional managers.

In the morning, many calls were made to Sean, including old man David. It was not to stop Sean, but to say that his prank was a bit too much. The Statue of Liberty is also a symbol of the United States. It is already disgusting if you change into a kimono.

You still smile so obscenely... and turn the torch into that thing, it's too much!

Due to pressure from all sides, New Century Media had to publicly apologize to the people of the country on television, but...

"Our TV station apologizes to the people of the country for some things in the program broadcast yesterday. It is still unknown whether Sony will change the company's logo once it completes the acquisition of Columbia Pictures. Even if it is changed, whether it will be changed to that look is just a guess."

"We believe that Benzi's culture does not include these things, and they do not have movies in this area."

"Maybe Sony is just making movies to make money. Maybe it won't include private goods in the movie. Maybe it's not a cultural invasion. Maybe... maybe... right."

It's okay not to apologize, but this apology is even more disturbing. The whole process is just a guess, and it's all guesswork. If the book culture doesn't include these things, how can men still not understand?

right!

There's more to the world than just woodpeckers!

What's more, most of Benzi's action film companies are registered in the United States...

After being hacked like this in the United States, Benzi's embassy couldn't sit still. But according to the rules, they could only contact New Century Media Company, but they couldn't go to Sean.

Even if we contacted New Century Media, we could not find any legal excuse. The media has the right to report and speculate on the news. New Century did not make a conclusion on this matter from beginning to end, and it did not violate the press law.

A free press pushed the embassy back.

This made the embassy in the east very happy. The country gave them the news, but they didn't expect Sean to act so quickly and so cruelly.

It would not be wrong to say that people in the diplomatic community are all sheepdogs. Most people are still divorced, and there is never a shortage of hatred for notebooks.

The book official had no choice but to publicly express its dissatisfaction with the New Century Media Company's random smear campaign. There was nothing else they could do, but huge pressure was placed on Akio Morita.

Although I don’t know why Sean’s father suddenly went crazy, if Akio Morita can’t calm down the incident as soon as possible, he will commit seppuku!

Fortunately, Coca-Cola also suffered huge losses this time. They wanted to sell Columbia Pictures, and they would be uncomfortable if Sean messed with it.

It's just that Coca-Cola's business scope has nothing to do with Sean's, and it's not a rival in terms of size. It can only serve as a matchmaker for Akio Morita.

Sean then agreed to meet Sony's people, and the time was set on the night Murdoch came, and the place was also on Deer Island.

Akio Morita rushed to New York in a hurry, but he didn't expect to see such a scene...

…

…

PS: It’s finally open. Oh my god, it’s been closed for more than a month, and people are going crazy. They don’t say anything anymore. Drink, drink, still fucking drink!
