When Kai said this, he didn't care at all that there were people around him, including several film critics who were originally very close to him, as well as the main creative staff of the play, that is, the heroine, the director, and Shaliz.
It doesn't matter who the film critics are, these people are just trying to find faults with their pens, and they are just being poisonous when they criticize. Kai's criticism is simply childish. But they agreed with Kai's main idea. This drama is undoubtedly a bad movie, and there is no need to clean it up unless Dibao originally intended to spend money.
Otherwise, how do you think film critics can survive? Do you think that just writing some movie reviews for newspapers and media can support them in Hollywood's debauchery? Don't even think about it. In fact, film critics as a profession in Hollywood have been very well established, and the chain of interests has been established for hundreds of years. Like when many movies are released, critics are paid to build publicity and lure fans into the cinema.
Of course, the film critics invited by Di Bao are all well-known. Most of them care about their credibility and will not exaggerate a film that is full of flaws. They should be scolded as they should, otherwise how could they get along?
But the main creators were different, their faces turned green.
Especially the heroine and the director... That's really wonderful. Everyone is a decent person. Even if they criticize, they will be published in newspapers and media. How can anyone criticize openly in front of others?
Among them, the heroine Christine was particularly hurt.
She is famous for her role in idol movies, which is said to be a very popular adaptation. In short, after several consecutive idol dramas, she is very popular, but she is still regarded as a vase in mainstream movies. This time when she participated in this blockbuster, she wanted to rely on this turnaround to gain positive reviews and at the same time open up the road to acting.
In Hollywood, it is very, very difficult to transform an idol. Looking at Leonardo DiCaprio, just because of Titanic, he has not been accepted by mainstream movies for so many years, and he is still not considered to have acting skills. As a matter of fact, now, Xiao Li Zi keeps taking on movies that have a lot of depth, but he still works with them.
Kristine felt that she had worked very hard this time, but was actually criticized by an outsider for being useless. She felt that she had been humiliated.
If politeness hadn't limited her, she would have thrown the champagne in her glass at that guy's face.
However, some people still couldn't hold it any longer.
"Sir, I think you are completely wrong. Kristen plays Balabala. This movie is Balabala. What I want to express is Balabala, and then Balabala..."
This person is a director, but it’s a pity that Kai, like most movie fans, doesn’t watch movies just to watch stars? Who the hell wants to remember the director? After all, he never reads the subtitles after the movie.
"Who is this idiot?" Kai looked at Tony in shock. "Did he receive money from the director? Are you trying so hard to help talk?"
The scene was completely silent, really. Anyone who came to the premiere would not go back and get to know the director. Besides, there was an interview with the main creator at the beginning of the movie, and the main creators all stood on the stage and talked! The host introduced him, but for a moment, he forgot that this person was the director? too fast?
But Kai didn't pay attention to this at all. He came to watch the movie. Who wants to hear the experience of making a movie? Aren’t those things all fake?
The director's face turned green. Even if he wasn't a star, he wouldn't be so insignificant, right?
"What are you doing in the interview before the movie starts?" Tony asked with a weird look on his face.
"Playing with mobile phones." Kaili said confidently.
"Oh, no wonder." Tony said helplessly: "He is the director..."
"Huh?" Kai looked at Tony. ,
Tony nodded to show he wasn't lying.
"Oh, no wonder." Kai nodded without any embarrassment. After all, I said it all, can I swallow it back? Besides, he estimated that he would only meet this director once in his life. If he offended him, he would be offended. What could he do? Bite him? Believe it or not, I was immediately served with a pair of silver bracelets?
Kai patted the director and said, "Man, change your career. You're not suitable for this. Really."
He said it sincerely.
The director quit.
This guy messed up on the spot. After all, today is when he is most proud of himself. He is a little-known MV commercial director, and he has risen to the top in one step, and is valued by two big guys, Tony and Di Bao. This is definitely a perfect template for the protagonist! Kai's behavior of slapping him in the face was naturally intolerable.
Unfortunately, as soon as he started acting up, Tony told him with a livid face that this was his friend and he should be polite.
People from Di Bao also came over immediately to persuade the director. After all, the director was so angry that he was criticized at the premiere. If word of this got out, there would be no need to worry about the box office.
"By the way, what's wrong with people nowadays? How dare you adapt Snow White into a movie without even watching it? Are you so impetuous?" Kai wasn't too angry at the guy's behavior. In fact, this matter was so bad that I didn’t think that what I really did was right. It's rude after all. But you still need to take advantage of it.
The director was so stimulated.
Tony didn't care about the director. He would meet at least a dozen of these people a day. He was willing to give him a chance just because he was in a good mood. As for the director's talent and so on... If he knew this, he wouldn't always rush into the street. .
"You said this movie is really bad?" From Tony's own opinion, it was pretty good. All the elements are present, and the picture performance is great.
"The plot is thin. I wanted to talk about it, but I didn't. The script is rubbish, and the heroine's acting skills are terrible. Apart from her expressionless face, I almost forgot that the protagonist of this movie is Bai Xue. Princess...what do you think of this movie?" Kai thoroughly despised Tony's aesthetic sense.
In fact, Tony's aesthetics have never been very good. Including his mecha, Kai thought it was too flashy.
How nice is the black one!
Mysterious, atmospheric and classy.
Like Tony...the wealthy gold and the sultry red...that's it. The same color as the mobile phone.
"Okay..." Tony quite believed Kai, because he knew that Kai didn't even bother to lie to him.
However, Tony is in a good mood. Anyway, he has a lot of money, and he doesn't feel bad about losing a hundred movies. Since he knows that this movie will be released on the street, he will naturally not worry about it anymore. If it can help him gain face, he will naturally be willing to take advantage of the popularity. After all, this movie It was a comeback, but since it was defeated, there was no need to waste energy.
"By the way, I'm going to Morocco next week to participate in Formula 1. Will you go with me?"
"What are you going to do?" Kai was not interested in watching others show off.
"This is boring." Except for the little trouble between Pepper and Kai, Tony actually likes to stay with Kai. He has no worries. Others don't covet him, and there is no need to fawn over him. They get along naturally. He quite liked this feeling. "What's the point of being a lousy cop like you? You don't even have time to relax."
"I'm happy to!" Kai responded without hesitation: "What about you? Is it just fun to wear a broken tin can and show off everywhere?"
"Please! I'm a superhero!! Listen clearly, superhero!!!"
"Yes, yes, it's a children's cartoon, I know. You should be lucky that you are a super rich man, otherwise, I would have caught you and thrown you into prison to collect soap." After Kai said this, he felt that he still had to pay This kid reminds me: "Seriously, you should take it easy. Those jackals in the government will not tolerate you being arrogant forever."
"Hmph! Those moths can only shout a few times in the sewer, and they can't make waves."
Tony was disdainful.
Of course, this was just because he didn't want to show his timidity in front of Kai. His troubles are not small at all!
Because he has been targeted by the two major domestic interest groups.
One is the Pentagon. One is an energy group.
The Pentagon and the military here are two different things.
Those in the Pentagon are all 'sirs', while in the military they are all 'generals'. One is a civilian politician and the other is a soldier. There's a lot of difference between the two.
In the Pentagon's view, the steel suit, an epoch-making weapon and manufacturing method, should be controlled, at least not only in the hands of private individuals like Tony. Because the Iron Suit was developed independently by Tony, he owns all patent rights, which is a different concept from the Stark Group. Moreover, the emergence of this kind of weapon has greatly threatened the status of traditional military industry, so many people hope to force Tony Stark to give up the patent rights of the steel suit through the Pentagon.
But this is difficult, after all, the Constitution is there. Private property is sacrosanct. Moreover, the United States has not legislated on the Steel Suit. Who can say that it is a weapon? Tony said it can be used as an auxiliary sports equipment for people with disabilities.
As long as they are not equipped with weapons, just like in Lord of War, armed helicopters are illegal, but if the rockets and cannons on the helicopters are separated, then it is not illegal.
Therefore, major arms manufacturers want to let Tony sell patents or license patents. Even if it costs a little more money.
On this point, the military actually supports it, but its support is not strong. The reason is simple, the steel suit is very powerful, but so what? Because the U.S. military's equipment level is now the best in the world, and there are no enemies at all, okay? Furthermore, if the steel suit is purchased, will other weapons have to be retired?
After these weapons are retired, should subsequent procurement be carried out? If not, what will happen to military expenditures? The government has already been cutting military spending. If it continues to do so, military spending will not be even less. That’s money!
Therefore, the military's desire for steel suits is very Buddhist. It's better to have them, but it's better not to have them.
This is also a rift between the Pentagon and the military. After all, the interests of the two do not completely overlap. Civilian interests and military interests will never coincide. After all, one of the Pentagon's responsibilities is to control the military.
The other group's hatred of Stark is more naked.
Energy Group!
First of all, when people talk about the United States being controlled by interest groups, the most common one they talk about is the military-industrial complex, which controls the United States to launch wars.
But in fact, the military-industrial complex is relatively unjust. Of course they want the U.S. military to go to war, because they make money from fighting. But this was after the war started. Who caused the war?
The answer is energy groups and financial groups.
What I'm talking about here is rather general. After all, the author doesn't specialize in this.
In short, the United States relies on two things to dominate the world. One is of course force, which goes without saying. The second is the petrodollar.
In today's world, oil transactions are settled in US dollars. In fact, not only oil, but any large transaction relies on US dollars for settlement. This allows the United States to draw blood from countries around the world and feed it back to itself.
But the petrodollar is definitely the top priority.
But now this corner seems to be loose.
In the energy industry, although there are categories such as solar energy and wind energy, these energy sources are all small and cannot shake the status of oil. But the problem is that Stark's reactor is different. The key to real clean energy is efficient and Stablize! Much stronger than oil and much cheaper.
At this stage, Stark Group has intervened in the U.S. power grid market. Their new energy companies have begun to generate electricity to seize the market, and their cheap prices are beating traditional energy groups to retreat.
I believe that in the near future, Stark New Energy Group’s market share will soar. Although if it reaches a certain level, the government will definitely launch a monopoly lawsuit, but who knows how many years it will take. As long as Stark Group's public relations are good, this process can be postponed for forty or fifty years.
Yes, monopoly litigation can also be public relations. This is America!
In short, this group of people's idea is very simple, either Stark destroys the reactor, or they take control.
Unfortunately, they were facing Stark!
He also has the support of a group of interest groups.
This is very American.
In short, they also joined in threatening Stark.
Stark's troubles are huge.
In fact, there are already relevant discussions in Congress, and it is estimated that hearings will be held soon.
Stark went to Morocco at this time to relax and then join another battlefield.
"Anyway, you should be careful." Kai shrugged. He had little communication with the upper class society in America and could not help him. "If there's trouble this time, I can't help you."
"Look down on me? Who am I?" Stark shrugged at Kai very stinkingly: "I am Iron Man!"
"as long as you are happy."
…
A premiere isn't just about watching a movie, it's actually more of a social occasion. Especially the reception afterwards.
The scene of Kai and Tony chatting happily in the corner was naturally seen by many people.
In fact, Christine is one of them.
Originally, this masculine-looking actress had a very bad impression of Kai. After all, Kai was not a familiar face, which meant that he was not from the industry. Since he was not from the industry, Christine naturally did not need to pay too much attention.
But now it seems that other people's circles are much more high-end.
Who is Stark?
The richest man in the world today, and he’s also Iron Man!
This status is not comparable to that of a small star like her.
So what rank is the person who can be friends with Stark?
The United States is not about class, but it is about status!
What US imperialism likes to play most is identity politics!
