Chapter 360 Making a lie come true Although both sides have agreed to fight against online piracy, this does not mean that they can make peace. In fact, the entire symposium was still filled with verbal battles and sarcastic remarks between Xu Kun and the sixth-generation directors, but overall they maintained a state of fighting but not breaking. At the final stage, Jia Zhangke even took the initiative to propose signing a joint initiative for online anti-piracy actions, and in the name of the sixth generation of directors. He even promised to communicate with the sixth-generation directors who were unable to attend and add their names to the initiative. "Although I don't like Director Xu Kun's attitude and some of his radical remarks." Jia Zhangke held up the microphone and said to the audience in a sonorous and powerful voice: "But as long as it is beneficial to the development of the art market, I, Jia Zhangke, will definitely support it!" As soon as he finished speaking, there was countless applause from the audience. Obviously, these words hit the G-spot of the young artists in the audience. The female teacher in the front row might be a die-hard fan of Lao Jia. She was so excited that tears fell while she was applauding. When the applause died down, Jia added: "Of course, I still hope that the country can try to establish some pilot art theaters in several major cities. This way, the chances of trial and error will be greater, and the art market will avoid detours." It’s back, all found! Through this series of attacks and defenses, Jia Zhangke not only regained his face, but also created an image of humility for himself.
More importantly, he turned Xu Kun's proposal of "Anti-Internet Piracy Man" into a collective initiative of the Sixth Generation of Directors, and into another politically correct banner of the Sixth Generation of Directors. No wonder Jia Zhangke, who debuted late, has become the leader of the sixth generation of directors. His skills are unmatched by ordinary people. This also made Xu Kun secretly glad that he was proposing his own solution while criticizing Jia Zhangke. Instead of acting like a fool and digging up the public opinion about accepting foreign funding and exposing domestic scars, he didn't just curse at them without caring about anything. Jia Zhangke alone is so difficult to deal with. If Xu Kun were to stir up this hornet's nest, he didn't think he could achieve ultimate victory. After all, those so-called pain points were not summarized by people just now. People had been criticizing them as early as the late 1990s. Almost all of the dozen or so sixth-generation directors present were veterans. You scold them for taking foreigners' money and exposing domestic sore spots. That is not only hitting their sore spots, but is actually hitting exactly what they want! One or two people might be able to suppress them with sharp words, but how can you suppress a fight between a dozen people?! Moreover, most of the audiences in the audience have a favorable impression of literary and artistic films and the Sixth Generation directors. If you criticize them for these trivial issues, they will only think that you are narrow-minded and authoritarian, and that you are indeed a puppet sent by the government. If he wants to win this argument, he might have to turn on his stupidity halo. That's why Xu Kun took a different approach, choosing to raise the banner of "fighting online piracy" and choosing to create the "online literary and artistic film zone". After all, the world of martial arts is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and worldly wisdom. After Jia "earned" back his face, a group of sixth-generation directors also responded to the anti-online piracy proposal "proposed by Jia". After gaining unanimous approval, Lao Jia asked someone to get him some writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone, and he wrote an article on the spot titled "Fighting Internet Piracy." The content is still what Xu Kun mentioned before, but the wording and sentence structure are much more refined. Otherwise, he graduated from the Department of Literature. Xu Kun was watching them coldly, seeing them trying to cover up their mistake, when he suddenly saw Jia Zhangke handing his pen over to him and said solemnly, "Director Xu Kun, you have to take the lead on this." Xu Kun was somewhat surprised. He had thought that they were going to claim credit for his initiative as their own, seeing them talking to themselves. He had not expected that Lao Jia would actually give himself the credit for being the first to propose it. But after thinking about it, he understood what was going on.
After all, there are more than a hundred audience members in the audience. If they really exclude themselves, the initiator, they will not be able to hold on to the banner of "fighting online piracy". Only by pulling yourself into it, can you justify and act accordingly whether you use it to bargain with those above you or to expand your influence in the circle. but…… Xu Kun walked over but did not take the pen. Instead, he asked with a half-smile: "Director Jia, didn't you say you wanted to launch an initiative in the name of the sixth generation of directors? Can I also be considered a sixth generation director?" "Yeah, how can he be considered the sixth generation?!" "That definitely doesn't count!" As soon as he finished speaking, two impatient directors jumped out to deny it. But Jia Zhangke nodded without hesitation: "Of course, I have always believed that any director who entered the industry after 90, is willing to speak for the grassroots people and is willing to contribute to the prosperity of the art market can be considered the sixth generation of directors!" At this point, he pulled out some scraps of paper from his pocket and said with a smile, "I've also roughly read Director Xu's original speech. Just in terms of promoting the birth of '12306', you have done a better job than many of us here." I'll go~ There is actually this trick! Xu Kun just threw it away after tearing it up, but he didn't expect that it was picked up by Jia Zhangke, who then used his own method to retaliate. "I also agree with what Senior Brother Jia said." At this time, Ning Hao once again stood up to support Xu Kun. Immediately afterwards, Guan Hu, Lou Ye and Zhang Yang also stood up to express their support. In the end, more than half of the people were in favor, and one-third were against. There were also those who chose to abstain, such as Wang Xiaoshuai and Lu Chuan. These two were not fools. They knew in their hearts that they had to get Xu Kun to join them, but they were too embarrassed to agree, so they chose to abstain. Finally, Xu Kun took the brush and wrote his name in the most conspicuous place. When he picked up the pen, he heard crisp applause from behind him again. This time it was not Ning Hao who started the applause, but Yang Mi. Although in reality both sides were attacking and defending each other, they finally reached a compromise on the premise of shared interests. But Yang Mi, who was just 20 years old, couldn't tell the difference. In her opinion, it was clearly Brother Kun's debate with many people, and he finally turned the symposium of the sixth-generation directors into his own home court. He also pulled them in to fight against online piracy with him, contributing to the interests of LeTV and himself. This is simply too powerful! As she clapped her hands, her heart was beating wildly and her pectoral muscles were swelling and throbbing, as if this body, which had just been adjusted to its peak, had received the signal to be unsealed and was preparing from the inside out. In fact, in the original time and space, Yang Mi would have to wait a few more years for her to evolve into Big Mi Mi, but now in order to cling to Brother Kun's thigh, she naturally accelerated her "growth". ………… Just as the sixth generation directors came forward to sign with their own thoughts, Xie Xiaojing excitedly called Han Sanping. It is said that he would not show up and let the sixth-generation directors express their opinions freely, but as the initiator, how could Xie Xiaojing not pay attention to the situation of the symposium? And precisely because he had a full grasp of the situation at the symposium, Xie Xiaojing couldn't wait to contact Han Sanping. "Mr. Han!" Xie Xiaojing said excitedly: "You are so good at judging people. I was worried that he, a young boy, would quarrel with Jia Zhangke and others in person and turn the symposium into a quarrel!" "Haha~ Now his identity as the sixth-generation director has become a reality." Han Sanping was also very satisfied with Xu Kun's performance. He laughed and said, "We always say that we should believe in the wisdom of future generations, but when young people really come to the fore, we dare not let them do things. How can this work?" If Xu Kun really had a quarrel with the sixth generation directors like a shrew, the person who would be most disappointed in Xu Kun would definitely be Han Sanping, who forced him into the symposium. What Han Sanping wants is the catfish effect, which is to urge the sixth-generation directors to make changes, rather than just using verbal skills to unnecessarily intensify conflicts.
The reason why he chose Xu Kun was not only because Xu Kun's achievements and status were the most suitable, but also because of the broad-mindedness and vision that Xu Kun demonstrated during their initial conversation. It turns out that he did not choose the wrong person! This also made Han Sanping pay more attention to Xu Kun. Young directors like Ning Hao are indeed talented, but young people like Xu Kun who have a sense of the overall situation are the most rare. "Seriously." After Han Sanping praised Xu Kun for a few words, Xie Xiaojing hesitated and said, "I know nothing about the Internet. Is his 'Internet Art Film Special' going to work?" "How do I know this?" Han Sanping said indifferently: "Whether it succeeds or not, the initiative of 'fighting online piracy' is better than them shouting that they are oppressed all day long. Moreover, there is a lot of external pressure now, and it is indeed time for us to make changes. I estimate that within two to three years, the authorities will inevitably tighten copyright control. It would be a good idea to let the sixth generation directors come out and speak out at this time, so that they don’t always make trouble out of nothing. Moreover, with the chess piece of "Online Art Film Special Topic", it will be more justified to deny art theaters in the future. After all, what we need to do now is to re-root the entertainment propaganda base in fourth- and fifth-tier cities, counties and towns, and the general public, rather than spending money to build those foreign rubbish that will only hinder the fiscal revenue!"
