Chapter 529 Small talk

Chapter 529 Small talk
"well said!"

In the live broadcast room, applause sound effects were heard, and there was also a chorus of approval on the barrage.

Although Wang Hao's words were a bit rigid and out of touch with reality, they were politically correct and no one could find any fault with them.

At least the chairman of a large entertainment group like Wang Hao is still willing to pretend in public.

If one day even someone like him stops pretending in public, then it will be the end.

Moreover, Wang Hao's words were not a performance or a show, he really thought so, and he also demanded the same of himself and the artists and stars in his company.

Maybe he had had some brief romances with some female stars before, but since he married Jing Tian, ​​he has settled down and is wholeheartedly maintaining this marriage and relationship.

As for other things like gambling and drugs, he had no interest in them at all.

Of course, this does not mean that Wang Hao wants to be a moral role model. The main reason is that career and power are already the best stimulants for men.

Especially now that the [Galaxy Cinematic Universe] is getting better and better, the second phase is about to come to an end, and the third phase has been roughly planned. In addition, the company's other [Shushan Fairy Universe] and [Fengshen Animation Universe] are in the planning and production stage. Wang Hao wishes he could have Sun Wukong's ability to clone himself. How could he have the energy and time to do other things?

It was at this time that he finally understood why the two directors Guo Fan and Jiaozi in his previous life were so haggard.

This is really a good career, and it is really not easy.

"What Director Wang said is indeed reasonable, but we can also see that many people on the Internet have different attitudes towards this matter."

The female host then began to guide the interview process to continue.

“As this netizen said:

I have no objection to celebrities being banned for misconduct, and I even find it gratifying. But do the works they have starred in have to be banned from broadcasting?

Film and television works are the result of the labor of many people. I think it is unfair that one person was affected and suffered a heavy loss."

"And this netizen said:

I am not a fan of celebrities. No matter how famous a star is, he or she is just a character in a movie. I just want to watch a good movie. Can you please not go too far? "

"Of course, we have a lot of netizens in the live broadcast room today. Most of them should be senior film and television fans. We can first see their views on this matter."

Next, the female host read out the netizens' comments to the screen, and of course she selectively picked out some of the more controversial words.

For example, some netizens call the behavior of implicating the work due to the artist’s mistakes “collective punishment.”

Some netizens said that they could use post-production subtitles in the cast list to indicate when and why a certain actor with a bad record received what kind of punishment, and they could also cancel the copyright of the works in which he participated.

Some netizens also agreed with the approach of the national management department, saying that these unethical artists usually earn profits far beyond their abilities, so their punishment must naturally be severe.

Anyway, regarding the issue of "whether the works of artists with bad records should be implicated", netizens have different opinions and there is no unified opinion.

After reading the comments from these netizens, Wang Hao responded and answered them one by one and gave his own thoughts on the matter.

"First of all, let me state my own opinion. The management of bad artists must be strictly enforced. There is no room for discussion on this point."

In front of many netizens, Wang Hao was the first to choose a side.

"Why do I say this? Let me first answer a few key questions that many netizens are concerned about.

Why do we have to remove the works of artists with bad records when banning them?
I can understand everyone's thoughts on this issue. After all, I am also a film and television creator and the owner of a film and television company.

If I were to say from my perspective, I certainly wouldn’t want the existence of bad artists to be linked to past works, because these works can definitely still bring profits to me and my company.

Not to mention those works that have not yet been released, there may be some high-quality movies and TV series among the works that many bad artists have participated in filming and producing. It seems a pity to really take them down and ban them.

But if the works are still there, people will go to see them, and if people go to see them there will be discussions, which will provide heat for those artists with bad records. Then isn’t this so-called ban just covering up the truth?
Of course, I saw some netizens saying that the actor’s illegal deeds could be specifically noted on the actor list as a reminder.

First of all, I want to make one thing clear. This kind of thing was equivalent to exile in ancient times. It is an act of insulting people and is no more appropriate than removing the work from the shelves.

After all, after being banned, as long as he realizes his mistakes, admits them, takes the initiative to correct them, and has a good attitude, he also has the right to return to normal life.

You are putting other people's mistakes behind their works and continue to publicize them. This behavior is inappropriate and can easily lead to new disputes."

What Wang Hao said made sense, and some viewers in the barrage sent out messages such as "that makes sense", "indeed", and "killing is not the right thing to do".

"And if we really do this, then every reminder is actually a form of entertainment and de-seriousness of the illegal and criminal behavior mentioned, which is a form of desensitization training.

In particular, many of the audiences who watch film and television programs are teenagers, whose outlook on life and sense of right and wrong have not yet been formed.

After seeing this kind of situation, they won't necessarily be alert, but instead think these things are cool.

Moreover, even if we mark and remind them, can we guarantee that new audiences will correctly understand bad artists?

Moreover, if the works are not removed from the shelves, it will be difficult to deter other artists. Some people may think that the crimes committed by bad artists are not that serious, after all, they can still stay on the big screen. "

As Wang Hao said this, he saw a new question floating across the screen and said:

“I’ve seen people say that their work can be stripped of copyright, and there are two problems with that.

First of all, domestic artists, stars or directors do not necessarily have the copyright to their works. The copyright may very well be in the hands of the company. Whether you deprive them of the copyright of their works or not has no effect on them.

Secondly, copyright cannot be taken away because citizens’ copyright is protected by law and cannot be taken away by anyone.”

“Some people say that removing works from shelves harms the interests of the work team and that they are innocent.

I'll be bolder today since my position is here.

Let’s put it this way, the straw that broke the camel’s back is definitely not the last straw. The moral corruption of a bad artist is definitely inextricably linked to the industry’s ethos.

The audience in the live broadcast room today may not have had close face-to-face contact with film and television stars. Most of their understanding of them is through film and television works.

But we in the circle are different, especially the staff and crew members who work with some bad artists day and night.

Do you think they don't know what these bad artists are like? Are all of them good at acting? Are they good at disguising themselves?
They know that these bad artists have problems on a daily basis and know some bad practices in the industry, so why don't they take the initiative to point them out? Well, you say they are just trying to make a living, and there is no need to offend a star or a big director for some things and ruin their careers.

Then they will naturally have to bear the risk of having their works removed from shelves after this bad artist gets into trouble.”

At this moment, a message suddenly appeared on the live broadcast barrage, asking Wang Hao to reveal which artists and celebrities in the circle had problems but had not been exposed yet, and the audience quickly lined up in an orderly manner.

Obviously, compared to Wang Hao’s statement on the necessity of banning artists with bad records, the general public seems to be more interested in eating melons and reading gossip.

Wang Hao also saw this and didn't want to pay any attention to it. After all, as the chairman of a film and television group, it was definitely a bit unethical for him to talk about gossip here.

However, thinking about the development and promotion of Douyin, this seemed to be a good opportunity, so Wang Hao paused and finally said:
“Some netizens asked me to reveal some information, but I don’t know much about the industry. After all, my main focus is on project production and company management.

And many things involve other people’s privacy, but there is one thing I can talk about… I’m going to be a father!”

When saying this, Wang Hao had a happy smile on his face.

The audience in the live broadcast room thought they were going to hear some big gossip, but they didn't expect it to be this, and they felt bored.

However, some kind-hearted netizens responded with words like "congratulations".

"I can't be the only one happy. To celebrate, there will be a lucky draw at the end of the live broadcast. The prizes will mainly be various peripheral products of [Galaxy Movie Universe], VIP membership of Taopiao.com and movie tickets for "Ball Lightning".

Okay, back to the topic, the reason why the authorities want to remove and stop broadcasting the works of artists with bad records is to maintain the atmosphere in the industry.

Don’t tell me that the investors and the crews don’t have foresight. If the investors and the crews consider the risks of using a certain artist when casting, the industry will naturally form strong constraints on the ethical issues of artists.

When risky artists are excluded and boycotted, those artists without risks will naturally get more opportunities. This may be a kind of protection for future actors and crews.

Moreover, our Galaxy Group has actually already taken some actions in the industry regarding this matter.

You may not know "HaoZhiPian.com", which is a professional management platform under our company specially used for film and television project production.

On that platform, after a film or television project is completed, everyone involved in the project, whether actors, directors, or behind-the-scenes workers, will have the opportunity to rate others.

The key is that this kind of rating and evaluation is anonymous, and you don’t have to worry about retaliation from the other party.

Perhaps this kind of rating is not necessarily fair and is somewhat subjective, but a large number of ratings will eventually reflect a lot of things.

Once an actor, director or behind-the-scenes worker scores too low, organizers of new projects will naturally be more vigilant and considerate when selecting these people.

I think everyone also hopes that actors who are both good-looking, capable, and dedicated can appear more in film and television dramas and contribute better works.”

A series of "yes" and "agree" floated across the barrage, and the right to speak and the rhythm of the entire live broadcast room were all controlled by Wang Hao.

“As for the loss caused by the removal of the work, it has little to do with the behind-the-scenes team and other actors.

The wages that should have been paid to them have already been paid. This cannot be guaranteed elsewhere, but our Galaxy Group's projects have never had any outstanding payments in arrears.

As for other benefits, such as popularity, fame, fans, subsequent resource growth and increased commercial value, these have little impact on actors whose works have already been released.

The ones who actually suffer the biggest losses are actually platforms and investment companies like us.

Of course, just like commercial endorsements, when we sign a formal contract with an actor, there will be a clause that if the work cannot be broadcast or is removed from the shelves due to the actor’s personal problems, our investors will also demand compensation from the offending artist, so the audience does not need to worry about it.”

"Some netizens asked if the work experience of such behind-the-scenes personnel is blank?"

"No, as long as they participate in film and television projects and are members of Good Producers, their work experience will still be added to the website and counted as their work experience."

"Are you still feeling bad for the show being taken off the shelves? The song is innocent?"

“No, you feel bad about the drama being taken off the shelves today, and you feel bad about the song tomorrow, so what will you feel bad about the day after tomorrow?
If you really feel sorry for them, then supervise and remind your idols so that they don't do anything illegal. They should pay taxes if they should, and don't sleep if they shouldn't.

Instead of sympathizing with those bad artists and thinking that such punishment is unreasonable, it is better to care about the suffering of the world and sympathize with those poor people. "

“What do you think of the fans?”

"Well, let me put it this way. I have come into contact with quite a few celebrities and artists, so I will tell you the truth and expose to you a bloody and cruel fact in the entertainment industry.

There are very few celebrities who treat their fans as friends.

Really, really! Don't be angry, don't be angry.

Just think about this question: who hired the celebrity's bodyguard?

Isn't it? If you think about it this way, you should understand.

I believe that many people actually understand this truth, but they still can't help themselves, which is understandable. However, I still hope that everyone can focus on their lives, and on their friends and family around them.

It’s okay to have idols, and being a fan is not a bad thing, but it’s better for everyone to be clear about their own positioning.

Stars are responsible for filming well, singing well, and producing good works, and fans only need to support them. Both sides should try to maintain a certain distance, which will make things much easier."

"Well, thank you Director Wang for sharing so much with us today. Finally, do you have anything else you want to say to the audience and fans?"

The host began to wrap up the show, and Wang Hao said solemnly to the camera:

“Actually, I have already said almost everything I want to say.

In short, the ban on artists with bad records should be comprehensive and persistent, with no exceptions allowed, no chance of whitewashing, and even less hope of a comeback.

Colleagues in the circle must keep this in mind, and always pay attention to their words and actions in daily life, and set a good example for the fans who like you.

I believe that with everyone's joint efforts, our industry will definitely get better and better in terms of both atmosphere and prospects!
Well, thank you all for watching today, and you are welcome to visit Douyin often in the future.

Oh, and don’t forget the lucky draw.

Just reply in the comment area and you may get a wonderful gift! "
