Still, Wait For Me
Chapter 436: War Caused by Two Posters
WeChat Uptime Choice, Like Crazy Stone, January 1, 2006.
Happy Farms is still in its hottest state without any subsequent weakness. On the occasion of this, the Star has taken a series of measures to attract users and has frequently launched various activities and projects, including the newly launched "Gathering Stars”. As an innovation and pioneer in philanthropy on the Internet, this is a tribute to Star Technology.
Of course, Weibo also benefits from this. Since mid-September, Weibo's registered users have enjoyed the burgeoning trend of farm launches. By the end of November and the beginning of December, the total number of users has now reached 180 million and has grown significantly in activity.
Xu Tiansheng's dream of intimate interactive crowds also gradually felt settled in the Weiboan family. In addition to daily contacts, they were still accustomed to QQ far more than Weibo private messages in terms of online communication.
At the same time, the Star Law Department successively sued two Internet companies for infringing game copyright, and eventually won the lawsuit.
Tencent didn't touch the farm, it's own game, QQ fantasy is also very hot, in addition, it also launched its own leisure games.
So far, there has been no positive conflict between the two sides.
But the storm is full of wind.
There have been rumours that StarTech will launch its own instant messaging software in the short term. This battle between the stars and Tencent in the realm of instant communication is inevitable.
In early December, Tencent announced an additional investment of $20 million from the original investor.
Conversely, the media reported that Star Technology once again refused to invest in the consortium...
The stars seem to have fallen into the wind in this war, in terms of preparedness. Originally, the scale and foundation were not as good as each other, and with this, the voices of the stars were the majority of the time.
There are many people inside Star Technology waiting for Xu Tiansheng to come up with a solution or a way to deal with it.
But Xu Tiansheng himself did not care too much. He is not a fantasist, defeated Tengxun, defeated QQ, completely replaced QQ? At least at this stage, it is never possible to do so, and the launch of WeChat does not carry such a responsibility.
At present, as long as WeChat can create a wave in the realm of instant messaging software, and gain a certain user base, even if only half, one-third or even less of the QQ, even if WeChat fails in the eyes of others, it is actually a success.
Tencent may not be as powerful at this time as it is in the future, but QQ in the realm of instant messaging software is already a huge gesture.
So, this war, like a little wolf challenging a giant beast in each other's realm, should not seek to kill each other completely, try to defend itself while biting down a piece of meat and running, grow stronger and come back... is the right strategy.
If you're not afraid to wear shoes barefoot, it's a little something to take, you make money anyway...
Xu Tiansheng did not panic.
In terms of film, Huang Yaming has always been the lead.
Early in December, Infinite first released its own poster, which was really eye-catching for the handsome men and women in ancient clothing.
At the same time, Huang Yaming gave his own answer to the question about the motion picture when it reached its peak. The first edition of "Crazy Stone" poster was released.
The poster was very effective in spreading, and almost everyone knew that the original motion picture came from an unreleased movie, "Crazy Stone," which led to a growing interest in the movie.
However, Huang Yaming's mood is still depressing.
People always like to say that this is the age of looking at faces, in fact, any era is the age of looking at faces...
Huang Yaming, look at other people's pairs, and look at this group of people, they are not supposed to rely on their faces, but are also full of strange makeup, the image of the Bamboo Gang...
The opinion of the masses is basically the same as that of Huang Yaming.
“Where did this monster come from? ”
“What do they want? ”
“Don't scare me...”
“That's it, making a movie? ”
“ …… ”
Stars are always more handsome when they're red, even if they're not really good looking. Until you see the actor's acting and content, people's arguments like this are not really malicious, they exist in every era.
Irony, ridicule, mischief… are all driven by the guidance of the "hearted".
“I should have known better than to keep it a secret.” Huang Yaming complained to Xu Tiansheng depressingly.
At this time, the happiest person is going to count Jin Datang. He takes time to sit in front of the computer almost every day to see the comments of his internet friends and the pranks and sarcasms about the "Stone" actor, how he sees happiness.
Kim Dae-tung also has a Weibo, who is a very popular entertainment company owner.
His latest tweet.
The picture is a poster of two films. Enclosure: handsome man and beautiful woman, Huamei Epic VS crooked dates, unsightly... What would you choose? I'm sorry I don't have enough sympathy.
Whether or not the speech itself is excessive, the people who approve it still make up the majority, let alone the stars of the people, are powdered.
What Stone has learned from this wave of propaganda is that a lot of people have been made aware of the film and have some curiosity. But the loss is also huge. Many people, especially girls, have said: I don't want to see the legend of the Badger Gang...
The people in the circle like "Stone" to take back the box office and make a fortune, because of the amount of investment itself, in this kind of hot topic, no matter what, it is no longer difficult.
But they sympathized with Huang Yaming, and Rock was almost impossible to win, and no comparison was possible in any way. Today, even a week's chances of winning are diminishing.
Shortly after the poster was released, Huang Yaming hosted some members of the Stone crew at Ming Yao Bar.
Xu Tiansheng was also present.
Think about a bunch of absolute cafes in the future movie industry, and when they're not on fire, some rush to sit in front of their investor, which actually feels interesting.
“Teacher Wong, would you mind singing a song?” Xu Tiansheng refers to the stage downstairs. Huang Yaming and the drama team are usually in much contact. Many of the court students have different identities today. It took half a day to come up with this kind of “flood into disaster”. It is commonly used as a name. Mr. Huang is called Huang Bu.
“Can you sing?” Huang Yaming answered with surprise.
“Not only can you sing, but you can dance. Ben's a singer, right? Has experience singing... blue wind sand.” Xu Tinsheng smiled and reported the name of the combination before Huang Bo.
The scene, including Huang Bu himself, was ruined.
Xu Tinsheng said that I have seen a lot of interviews in my past life in front of computers.
After all, after many years of singing experience, Huang Bo did not have a fright, and went downstairs to sing "Love and Sorrow", indeed, very powerful.
Xu Tingsheng made him sing only a mattress. When someone came back, he said directly: “Teacher Huang sang very well. I wonder if he would be interested in singing the theme song of the movie? ”
“Ah, this, not Miss Cenxi Yu...”
“Two theme songs are fine," Xu Tiansheng said with a smile, "for this film, her image may be too tall. So, please don't mind. ”
“Well...”
“Ugly Eight Monsters, a new song from the band, is only available online in a rough live version. I think this song is quite in line with the public opinion that we are now suffering, and it's sort of a counter-attack and propaganda. However, I don't know if Teacher Huang would mind..."
At this stage, it's a lucky thing to be able to sing a song that has a musical dream as it is, but not yet achievable. Years of running around the river and lake, had experience performing all over the country, had also run factories, had a lot of experience, high emotional intelligence, Huang Bu did not show too much excitement on the spot, shook his head with a smile, sincerely said:
“It's all right, my classmates, the director outside, the crew… a lot of people… I'm used to it anyway. And I've heard this song, and it means a lot, and I think, speaking for a normal person like me, I'd love to, thank you. ”
“You're welcome, just give us more opportunities to work together in the future. Everyone will work together in the future." Xu Tinsheng raised his glass. “For the big box office sale, let's drink to the starry future. ”
Xu Tiansheng made a mat. As for whether to seize the opportunity to sign several more film contracts, this was left to Huang Yaming. I'm sure they won't refuse, and after all, these people here, the future box office makers, they don't even realize how much influence they're going to have in the movie world.

It's a good day to back up, provide convenience, and record songs quickly.
In mid-December, Huang Bur's version of The Ugly Eight began to show up in various channels. Wear a small number of movie trailer footage, mainly filmed in the studio MV, good performance level, sincere singing, from the heart of expression and talk, profound, relevant to the lyrics of current public opinion...
With the popular topic of the day, the song was labeled as a new song that spreads at an extremely fast pace.
As Xu Tiansheng said, this is propaganda and more of a counterattack. The mediocre end of the world is the majority, when more and more people find empathy in songs, when more and more people can experience that feeling...
Those sarcasm and ridicule began to become unobstructed, and people began to reflect on when they had become so shallow, intolerant, and casually wounded.
Those with high toes began to be spit on, including Kim Dae-tung, who was still hanging from the “mockery microblog," and was sprayed hundreds of pages.
Those mediocre efforts, earnestly committed, silently endured, began to be appreciated, encouraged, because it's actually harder for ordinary people to succeed and get opportunities...
Public opinion, has begun to reverse completely.
At the end of the MV, the cast of the "Stone" crew made a group appearance, smiling sincerely and sincerely:
“We, it's not nice, but the movie is nice. ”
People replied in various places, tweets, forums...
“I will definitely go see this song...”
“Thank you for the mediocre ‘we’ endorsement. ”
“I owe you a movie ticket, I'll pay you back. ”
“I'm sorry. ”
