Chapter 209 A truth is more important than the whole world!
After the Oscars are awarded, there will be a dinner, which is similar to many film festivals. Everyone can communicate and those who didn’t win can get some comfort. There will also be an interview in the middle. You have to give reporters some opportunities, right?
"Mr Wu, how do you feel about coming to the United States?"
Naturally, reporters also came to interview Wu Xiang, and there were quite a few of them.
"Very good." Wu Xiang's answer was simple, but this did not seem to satisfy the reporters.
"What else?" he asked next.
"What else?" Wu Xiang asked, not understanding.
"Don't you think that when you come to Los Angeles, there is an atmosphere of freedom that you have never experienced before?"
Coming!
You should understand what reporters want to hear from you.
"Freedom? Haven't you experienced it before?" Wu Xiang was thinking, "Haha" in his heart. "If I couldn't experience it, how could I come to this place?"
Wu Xiang asked back, and the reporter was choked.
We can't continue to ask about this matter. It would be bad if we were slapped in the face. Reporters are all experienced.
"Mr Wu, what do you think about the fact that the movie "Emperor of Han Dynasty" has almost the same plot as that in "Lord of the Rings 3"?" he quoted from the movie.
"There's nothing wrong with learning from each other." Wu Xiang seemed very generous at this time. In fact, to be honest, he is a reborn person and a learner, so he didn't want to say anything more about Peter Jackson's film
.Isn’t that okay now that I’m getting an advantage, so I won’t act like a good boy?
But that's not the case with reporters. Someone immediately said: "Before you started filming "Emperor of Han Dynasty", did someone reveal the script of "The Lord of the Rings" to you?"
What does this mean? You still talk like this?
Wu Xiang was a little angry at the time. It's not like he didn't know the urinary nature of these crooked nuts. They were promoting these things in the media all day long, 'Huaxia is a big plagiarism country!', 'Huaxia has no innovation ability!',
'People in China are all slaves. They work for less than 2 US dollars a day!'...
But to say such shameless words is really too much!
"What do you mean? Can I travel through time and space, steal a script that hasn't been released yet, and then make my own movie? I'm sorry. This is just your fantasy."
"Hahaha..." Many reporters have already laughed at that colleague for not being smart.
The man's face was very ugly, and he was obviously a little angry, but he had nothing to say and couldn't say it.
At this time, another reporter asked a question. "Mr. Wu, I wonder if you know about the current war in Iraq. Do you have any reports in your country? What are your views on this war?"
"Haha..." Wu Xiang was happy when he heard this question. These people always think that we are so closed-minded and helpless. Their media reports like this all day long, always thinking that we live in dire straits.
Of course, in fact, if you watch a certain station's news broadcast, you will have the same feeling, but the intensity of a certain station is not as strong as others. No one is so shameless.
I only heard Wu Xiang say: "Of course there are reports. I am very aware of this incident. But having said that, no one seemed to mention this matter at the award ceremony today. I thought you American media did not report this war of aggression."
"A war of aggression?" It is obvious that Wu Xiang's words are very hurtful.
"Isn't it?" Wu Xiang asked back, "Isn't it just for oil? Then you launched a war. Well, I heard that Mr. Bush said that there are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, but this
Have you found anything? You brazenly launched a war without finding any evidence, and caused the death of so many innocent poor people during the war. Isn't this aggression?"
"You! You, you...but what if we can find that thing?"
"You mean weapons of mass destruction? Well, I wish you all the best to find this thing as soon as possible to prove that what I said today is wrong." Wu Xiang answered this question as if he was joking.
At this point, the interview could no longer continue, and all the reporters were speechless!
Originally, at the Oscars ceremony just now, almost everyone had the same goal, which was the matter of Iraq. No one mentioned it or talked about it. Oh, yes, that matter has nothing to do with us. We just need to live our lives well.
Life will be fine, as long as our movie wins awards.
Only one, an older American film worker, said a little bit, but he said it very skillfully. He didn't say it clearly, he just said that more than ten years ago, the current commander-in-chief, his father, had already taken care of things.
I've finished it.
In fact, Wu Xiang didn't want to say it. Since no one else said it, why did he want to say this to Mao? He was not an elite who dreamed of immigrating to the United States or Iraq and longed to enjoy what he had in his country.
The problem lies with these reporters. Those who come to the Oscars are of course entertainment reporters, but these entertainment reporters want to ask Wu Xiang questions, and they also want to lead the topic to Dan Ziyou,
It feels uncomfortable if you don’t lead Ski.
To be precise, you can't blame them. You know, this is what the entire American media promotes now. Even though it is 2004, the people of the United States are still very mysterious to us, an Eastern country. Many people even
I really thought that we were still the kind of people with pigtails standing on end, talking in Cantonese and squinting our eyes.
In 2009, a famous CCTV speaker named Bai gave a speech at Yale University. At that time, he had a very interesting saying, which was very interesting.
"When we look at the United States, it seems that we are looking through telescopes. All the beautiful things in the United States have been magnified by telescopes... But in the past many years, Americans seem to be looking at us through telescopes, but I guess it may be
The telescope is held upside down."
These words caused a roar of laughter at the time because what he said was so vivid. After that, the Guangming Daily published the full text of this speech.
You must know that it was still 2009. We had already held a great Olympics in Beijing, which shocked the whole world. But even so, Waiguoren still looked at us with their colored glasses, let alone 04
year now?
Therefore, Wu Xiang did not feel that all his previous encounters were too excessive. If you are too extreme, I will be more extreme than you. Anyway, I will not suffer any loss, but some people think that what Wu Xiang said is wrong.
"As a well-known figure, how can Wu Xiang speak nonsense in public? How can he label the actions of the US military as aggression? Isn't this ridiculous? Isn't the action of the US military aimed at eliminating potential security threats? This is for all mankind.
Make a contribution! Moreover, they also ended Saddam’s dictatorship. What a popular move this was? We can even imagine that the Iraqi people in the future will definitely bathe in the glory of this disaster!”
"Wu Xiang's words are a bit direct. But what is this guy upstairs talking about? Isn't this nonsense?"
"I have to say that Wu Xiang told the truth, so some people couldn't sit still, hahaha..."
"How can you say this to Americans? You should say to Americans, you are fighting well. How could so many people die in Iraq before you went there? There are explosions every day. These are all caused by you.
How wonderful!"
Wu Xiang's verbal spat with reporters this time was quickly exposed by the media, and it became popular all of a sudden. It became the headlines of major portal websites.
Of course it will be popular. Even if Wu Xiang didn't say anything this time, as the first mainland director to be invited to attend the Oscar ceremony, just this one thing is enough to make headlines, not to mention there are so many stories in it.
.
Some people scolded him, others praised him, and everyone was having a great time arguing.
But there were also powerful and authoritative people who started to make trouble against Wu Xiang.
"As a public figure, why is your quality so poor?" This is the headline in Nandu. Needless to say, people will directly tell you about your quality. This is not over yet, there will be more.
"Directors should be filming, why should they get involved in political topics?"
"Iraq, what does it have to do with you Wu Xiang?"
The "Southern" media has all the firepower, including websites, newspapers, and everything they can use. They are completely in a posture of criticizing Wu Xiang. They will not give up until they criticize Wu Xiang!
But there are also people who have good things to say. Penguin posted a comment article.
"A truth is more important than the whole world!"
This article will directly comment on whether Wu Xiang is telling the truth, because no matter from any point of view, the so-called just war launched by the US imperialism this time is simply untenable. First of all, they have bypassed
The United Nations, and even now the war has been fought, but no weapons of mass destruction have been found. This cannot help but make people doubt whether this war was right or wrong?
The intention of this article is very good, and it is indeed true. What is wrong with telling the truth? Moreover, if you say that Wu Xiang is wrong to tell the truth, isn't that the same as saying that what the US emperor does is dirty? And what about others?
Aren’t we still concerned about freedom of speech? So what, is it not right for us to have freedom of speech for once?
Suddenly, there were a lot of responses. There was a battle on the Internet surrounding Wu Xiang's trip to the Oscars. It was really full of smoke.
However, when Wu Xiang, who was far away in the United States, saw this Penguin article that spoke for himself, he was so angry!
You said that it was not good for you to use a word for the title, but you had to use this sentence? Isn’t this hurting me?
Why do you say that? Don’t they have good intentions?
Yes, it is a good intention, but this sentence, "A truth is more important than the whole world" is not said by ordinary people. The person who said this sentence is a famous litterateur, the famous Nobel Prize winner in literature.
Winner, famous former Soviet writer, Alexander Solzhenitsyn!
Of course, in 2004, Solzhenitsyn was not dead yet, so he did not necessarily have to be named after the former Soviet Union, but he still had this title when he won the Nobel Prize for Literature.
But the question is, is this guy a "public intellectual" or the originator of "public intellectual"!
Then by using this sentence, wouldn’t he become a public knowledge?
Wu Xiang doesn't want to be regarded as a public figure. That thing is too high-level and he can't afford it.
But now, it's useless for Wu Xiang to worry. He is still in Los Angeles, and he has an important thing to do. He wants to visit an artist.
The name of this artist is Michael Jackson! (To be continued...)
Chapter completed!
