2003 Backfired

"Smack!"

Finally, the premiere of "Interstellar" Magic City ended successfully with cheers and applause. The moment when the entire crew took photos with the fans was undoubtedly the happiest and most beautiful moment. Lan Li, who hardly appeared on social networks, also showed her face on Weibo through this super photo, which reminded people of the moment of this year's Oscar photo. In a trance, a kind of beauty and happiness that was in line with the world. In such a state of satisfaction, the whole audience had a collective orgasm.

After the premiere, the heat of discussion on group photos on Weibo soared. In just twenty minutes, the amazing energy of 500,000 topics burst out, and it continued to rise with the advancement of time, allowing everyone to see the strong appeal of Lan Li in the Chinese region. The debates, boycotts, and frenzys still exist, but they have slowly fallen. At this time, in the collective outbreak of Don Quixote and passers-by, it seems that it is not possible to explode again with a second burst of warmth.

Chris Wu?

Of course, he was also in the group photo. He joined hands with all the publicity staff to take the stage, participated in the group photo, and also participated in the group photo. However, his figure was very, very small, not next to Lan Li, nor to Anne and Nolan, nor even in the center of the main creative team of "Interstellar". Instead, he stood next to Gu Cailing and another staff member, three positions separated from the crew members.

If Nolan on the other side of Gu Cailing is added, then there are four empty seats, and this is the closest distance between Chris Wu and Lanli.

Chris Wu's agent was out of touch with anger:

He had considered asking Chris Wu to turn around and leave, but he could not give up his obsession with "in the same frame with Lan Li" and urged Chris Wu to take the stage to complete the photo; but after the premiere, he immediately contacted the digital team leader of Chris Wu's fanatical fans, expressed strong dissatisfaction, and a storm was brewing.

After the photo was released, Chris Wu's fanatical fans did not launch an attack as soon as possible, but waited for all the "comrades" to gather together. Only then did they start to flood the screen, and they stood up for their idols in a mighty manner, trying to continue the public opinion wave of "boycotting Lanli" again.

All kinds of slogans appeared, unreasonable, simple and crude, domineering... Internet violence can always expose the ugliest side of human nature, and the vigorous condemnation even created a bigger wave, successfully continuing the storm of the past twenty hours. It seemed that Lan Li was in a crisis again. Judging from the phenomenon, it was even more serious than the storm at the afternoon press conference.

"Traffic Star" truly demonstrates its full power.

But the subsequent direction of the incident caught people off guard. The public opinion of "Boycott Lanle" failed to emerge, and a little spark was extinguished in a blink of an eye. Instead, the voice of boycotting "Chris Wu" began to rise in full swing, sweeping the entire online platform with a prairie fire, instantly causing Chris Wu's account to fall.

"You are just a traffic star, why do you make a big fuss?"

"What works do you have besides selling faces? Do you actually think you can compare with Renly Hall?"

"Ranley is the Oscar winner, what are you?"

"Lanli made a special trip to the Magic City to promote it, and was so interested in Chinese culture. What are you showing? It's embarrassing!"

"Apart from hype, I didn't see what you were doing. Then someone came to promote it. You wanted to continue hype, but they were rejected. Now they were so angry, right?"

"I deserve it! I don't even look at what level I am at, but I still want to compete with Renli? I'm overestimating my abilities."

"If I were you, I could drown myself by peeing. I don't know where the face came from, and I dare to compare it with Renly."

"Would you please keep your eyes open for those who mock Lanli for being 'racial/racist'? This guy is Canadian, and his Chinese may not be as smooth as Lanli for Chinese."

"I really don't know what to say. For a traffic star to be flooding the screen, it's better to study hard if you have such time."

"'Interstellar' is a classic masterpiece. The crew team came to promote it specifically, but we are here to pay attention to a candle? What do you think about Lanli? If Lanli doesn't want to come to the Magic City again to promote it, I'm not surprised at all, because I don't want him to come again."

"When you are watching the screen here, Lan Li is thinking about how to perform. This is the gap. Learn how others polish their acting skills and then complain about whether they are ignored by others."

"Isn't this a matter of being ignored by others without sufficient strength and ability?"

"I don't like you either. I can completely understand why Renly ignores you. I don't think he did something wrong."

"Please shut up, thank you. I want to watch Renli instead of watching an unknown person swim around the screen here."

"A bunch of lunatics, 'Interstellar' has nothing to do with your idol, okay? Please, don't add a show to yourself."

"Stop talking nonsense about boycotting Lanley. The guy you like is Canadian. Why not boycott your idol first? How about it?"

...

Countless facts have proved that too much is just like the law of conservation of energy, and will never be outdated:

When Chris Wu's fanatical fans tried to create higher voices, they pushed too fiercely, and inadvertently angered the majority of netizens. Then everyone on the Internet united to fight against those fans who had lost their minds. The more fierce the resistance of these fans, the more vigorous the netizens became.

Before we knew it, the core content of the quarrel went completely apart and gradually began to evolve into a tutoring meeting that mocked Chris Wu.

Then, things got out of control, and again; however, this time it was related to Lan Li, but it had nothing to do with Lan Li. Although Lan Li was repeatedly involved in the discussion, in fact, it was the general public's dissatisfaction with traffic stars and fanatical fans. The accumulated negative emotions burst out like this, and then they got out of control.

This is what is called "the counterproductive will be backfired". Fanatic fans were ready to try to make some significant achievements, but they did not expect that it triggered a full-network encirclement and inexplicably became Renli's best publicity platform.

The shortest and youngest egot winner in history.

The third actor in history to nominate for the Oscar for four consecutive times.

Hereditary aristocratic family background.

He always tirelessly studies his acting skills in his professional performance posture.

Humorous and witty eloquence has dedicated many classic talk shows.

The kindness and enthusiasm for fans is circulating among the people.

The low-key and restrained private life always maintains concentration and dedication.

He speaks fluent Chinese and is very interested in Chinese culture.

In this way, labels after labels have begun to be comprehensively popularized. If people's understanding of Lan Li is still at the level of "Hollywood superstars" when "gravity", they have heard some rumors in a vague way, but they have no chance to really understand it. After all, most ordinary audiences are just hearing it occasionally; then this time, it provides a rare opportunity to let more people eat the opportunity to understand Lan Li's great achievements, and the shock is undoubtedly all-round.

From watching to boycott, from complaining to cursing, from watching to excitement... I experienced a roller coaster experience of 360 degrees of spiral within twenty hours, and finally entered the stage of comprehensive understanding, full amazement and even full worship, especially those netizens who cannot keep up with the speed of online updates. After everything has settled down, I began to read the summary post, and then I can intuitively understand it. Their feelings are undoubtedly the most direct and shocking:

It turns out that the name "Lanli Hall" has such profound and powerful significance, which forms a sharp contrast with Chris Wu. So, should they go through "Interstellar"? Use this method to express their positions and draw a clear line with the fanatical fans of traffic stars?

Many Chris Wu's fanatical fans were caught off guard and did not expect the direction of the matter at all. They even began to doubt whether they had become propaganda tools, discredited their idols, created momentum for "Interstellar", and created a glorious image for Ren Li. Then there was a conflict within them and they began to split.

Even if you really participate in it, people who have experienced the whole process cannot say exactly how this happened, because it is too magical and outrageous, so it has a sense of unreality. For example, Gu Cailing, in the end, she herself has a sense of ignorance and vagueness, and she has no idea what happened. Then she staggers to the second day of the promotion itinerary, as if she is dreaming.

The next morning, the "Interstellar" crew held a small fan meeting. Lan Li, Anne and Nolan, the three main creators attended the meeting together to get close to the fans, talk about the movies, and talk about themselves. At the same time, they also talked about interesting things during the filming, giving fans a chance to communicate face to face.

According to the plan, the movie fan meeting is only allowed to accommodate 800 people; in order to control the number of viewers, the official regulations stipulate that every audience attending the meeting must show their box office to watch "Interstellar". At the same time, the meeting refuses to sell tickets and enter according to the order of queues. It is also a move to prevent scalpers from queuing instead.

Even so, scalpers are still banned.

The most direct phenomenon is that when Lan Li and his group arrived at Pudong Airport, they lined up at the door of the meeting venue. Then, after the premiere, the fans came over to complete the alternation with the "scalper" and lined up themselves. Such a fanatical action made everyone laugh.

In the end, more than 15,000 people gathered at the meeting, and later, because there were too many people in line, the traffic police had to be touched to maintain order on the scene and prohibited queuing. This was how the scene was controlled, but the craze at the scene still pushed the midsummer in Shencheng to the extreme.

At this time, the publicity itinerary finally returned to normal.
Chapter completed!
