Rebirth: I Want to Surf

Historically, this incident did not cause much turmoil after it broke out.

Netizens were less interested.

There was no reaction from the mainland entertainment industry. Only screenwriter Lu Tianming, Lu Chuan's father, appealed on Weibo: "These Hong Kong and Taiwan artists who make money from activities in the mainland should be banned and banned together."

The official media also had no attitude.

It wasn't until 2017 that the commotion was so outrageous that the official media began to say "Don't eat Chinese food, smash Chinese pots" and so on.

Now, Lu Tianming still posted on Weibo:

"It is timely to temporarily ban the performances and broadcasts of artists' works involving drugs and prostitution, otherwise it will be difficult to correct the vicious expansion of a few celebrities.

But I think it’s not enough to just ban those involved in drugs and prostitution. Nowadays, there are some celebrities, especially those from Hong Kong and Taiwan, who regard the mainland as a gold mine while vigorously advocating and supporting independence. Should such artists also be banned? Woolen cloth? "

Lu Tianming may not have thought that a Weibo post could become a trigger.

Because this Weibo post immediately became a hot search topic, trolls and netizens came together to express their support.

"The most annoying thing is to pick up the bowl to eat and then put the bowl down to curse!"

"Hong Kong movies have given me wonderful memories of my youth. I also liked those stars. But now I'm sorry, my perspective is different and I can't like them. Goodbye!"

"It's such a big thing to know, I don't know what to say, it's even baffling, I can't understand their brain circuits!"

"It's normal. If you have been to Hong Kong, you will know that they really miss the colonial period."

"Lawyers all wear wigs!"

Immediately afterwards, almost all mainland celebrities with a certain degree of popularity received the message from Boss Yu: "Forward it to me!"

Celebrities: emmmm!

In this era, they don't want to get involved in this matter, unlike later generations who rush to express their opinions and send out red flags, maps and so on.

But when 99 spoke, its artists naturally obeyed.

As for people from other companies, they didn’t dare to offend, so they had no choice but to comply. Except for people like Xiaoyanzi, most of them retweeted Lu Tianming’s Weibo.

Add thumbs up, red heart and other emoticons.

As a result, an extremely spectacular scene appeared on Weibo, with nearly a hundred celebrities expressing their patriotism.

When the momentum reached this point, 99 Entertainment jumped out again: "Today, we are here to initiate the "Self-discipline Convention on Artist Selection Standards in the Film and Television Industry", and adopt boycott measures of non-selection and non-cooperation against Hong Kong and Taiwan artists who have vicious remarks and advocate independence... …

National problems are no small matter!

We should lead by example, produce positive and positive film and television dramas, praise the truth, goodness and beauty, and bring more and better literary and artistic works to society and the masses! "

Fuck you!

Some colleagues directly scolded you, you danced better than anyone else, all the dirty stuff was explosive, now you are pretending to be a good person?

But unexpectedly, Enlight Media was the second to pop up and posted: "Enlight is happy to join the convention and join hands with 99 Entertainment to write a hymn of the new era for the broad masses of the people!"

Following Wang Jinghua's company, Jiaxing Media, Hesong Culture, Tang Dynasty, Wanda Pictures, etc., large and small entertainment companies have successively expressed their stance.

Some have good relations with 99 themselves, some have high-level contacts - such as Wanda, and others, like Guangguang and Wang Jinghua, are either coerced or lured, or actively embraced.

Tencent Pictures also spoke out.

They did not join this broken agreement, but they expressed their intention to resist "independent artists".

This is the general trend. Alibaba, Huayi, Bona, etc., like Tencent, express their own attitudes.

For a time, those Hong Kong stars on the list became street rats. In fact, there were also a few Taiwanese stars mixed in, such as the director of "The Girls We Chased Together in Those Years" Nine Knives.

Compared with the entertainment industry of later generations, which is prone to scandals, now it is too tolerant towards celebrities.

Celebrities, fans, fans, and officials all don't adapt.

From the beginning to the end of this year, the hot searches have not stopped, and the nature is getting worse every time, from personal moral character, to personal crimes, to personal stance, good guy, stance!

In the past, people never thought that the entertainment industry could be related to stance?

Of course, the Hong Kong community was not without its ability to fight back. After the popularity lasted for a few days, they began to speak out on Weibo, buy trolls, and build momentum...

Yao Yuan is a bit funny, are you competing with me on my platform? But he didn't ban it. He wanted to have fun and simply created an atmosphere of a battle between two armies.

The Hong Kong circle's counterattack is very media-specific, and they are doing a terrible job.

He never mentioned this incident or his position. He only talked about the glory and pain of Hong Kong films and the difficulties and bitterness of Hong Kong filmmakers.

"Many opinions on the Internet are now too extreme, generalizing, and using regional discrimination to smear Hong Kong filmmakers. I want to tell everyone that we are really not like that."

"We are born from the same roots, so why be too hasty when we are in conflict with each other?"

"People often say that Hong Kong films are not as good as before, and we are really wronged. The 1980s and 1990s were the golden years of Hong Kong films, and our quality was entirely determined by the market.

Nowadays, the market is focused on the Mainland, and each of us attaches great importance to the Mainland audience. However, due to lack of experience, it is inevitable to have our hands tied when creating. We are also working hard to share the same channel with everyone and make good-looking movies.

I hope everyone will give us more time and don't yell at us Hong Kong filmmakers. "

Eh!

The self-certification trap is here!

What was clearly said here was "banning independent artists", but they confused it into "screaming and killing Hong Kong filmmakers", which can easily arouse everyone's "understanding and sympathy".

If this side starts to prove itself, saying that we are not targeting all of you, but only a small number of you. The momentum was gone, and there was a sense of weakness that said, "I don't do anything, don't get me wrong."

But it is a pity that Yao Yuan set the tone from the beginning: overcorrection must be overcorrected!

So he proved himself to be a ghost, he didn't explain, he only got worse.

…………

Then, the second wave came.

He didn't talk about his position this time, but talked about Hong Kong's past dark history. He just wanted to smash the aura of those people and tear them off.

All kinds of pictures and texts are widely circulated on the Internet, from big stars to small stars, from innocent girls to kings, from directors to bosses, from vicious competition to shady filming skills...

One of the videos is the most popular, with over 10 million views.

It begins with a conversation between Chow Yun-fat and Anita Mui during the 2001 Academy Awards.

"Then what do you think of mainland female celebrities?"

"Be obedient and listen to the instructions!"

"Well, what else?"

"Willing to do anything!"

Immediately afterwards, the UP leader said angrily: "Oh, you said we are willing to do anything, so we learned from you! You are dirty yourself..."

Then came Maggie Cheung’s interview:

"There is one. When we were filming the kissing scene, the director didn't even listen to his shouts. He hugged me and wouldn't let go... uh, Fat Boy!"

Follow Zhong Chuhong:

"I was still young at that time, almost 19 years old, and I was filming Xu Anhua's "The Story of Hu Yue". A group of people were chatting, and a few men looked at me while they were talking, and made some dirty jokes, and I just took them as a joke.

Then they came over one by one, and I burst into tears. Fat Zai held my shoulders and pushed me on the sofa...I cried for a long time..."

Then came the turbulent scandal. Rosamund Kwan interfered in the marriage of Chen Meiqi (Xiao Qing in White Snake) and her wealthy businessman husband. She harassed and insulted Chen Meiqi during her pregnancy, causing Chen Meiqi to miscarry. Then she competed with Li Jiaxin for favor in front of the rich Liu Luanxiong. …

I couldn't finish talking for three days and three nights.

It is always said that domestic entertainment is not clean. Compared with Hong Kong entertainment, it is just leftovers.

(No more...)
