Chapter 811 Work and Life
In the 1990s, due to its own poverty and backwardness, the Xia Kingdom was not only extremely unconfident in its scientific and economic development, but also could not stand up straight in the fields of culture and aesthetics.
In order to win awards abroad, some directors made a bunch of messy movies and sent them to old Europe for foreigners to judge.
The more this kind of film portrays the country of Xia as poor, backward, ignorant and stupid, the more likely it is to win awards.
Li Dongtian obviously used the same routine, but he didn't have the ability to make movies, so he deliberately chose a model like Lu Yiyan who had a very "distinctive" look.
After some efforts, Lu Yiyan quickly became famous in Europe.
In 2000, Lv Yiyan represented Xia Guo in the World Supermodel Contest and won the runner-up.
In 2005, Lv Yiyan won the Fashion Star Avenue Award at the Xiaguo Fashion Ceremony.
In the old European supermodel circle, she was praised by many people, given countless flowers and applause, and praised as a typical oriental beauty, which instantly made her an internationally renowned supermodel.
In fact, Li Dongtian knew very well whether it was beautiful or not. He had long understood the sinister intentions of these foreigners.
But what does this have to do with him?
Anyway, he has already made money, and his fame is at its peak. He is doing very well in the circle, which has much better prospects than being an unknown barber.
The three of them chatted and soon finalized the matter.
blog.
In the article ranking list, Lv Yiyan's Dior tweet with numerous typos and no substance actually ranked first, and its popularity value far exceeded the sum of the following nine blog posts.
Just because the comment section is too lively.
Scroll to the bottom of the blog post and you will see the comment section clearly stating 15,934 comments.
This data is really explosive.
The second most popular article is a short story written by an author, which has less than a thousand comments, which is only a fraction of Lu Yiyan’s blog post.
Although among these 16,000 comments, at least 15,000 of them were cursing Lu Yiyan, that was not important.
Putting aside the facts, you can tell whether this can be considered as popularity.
As long as there is popularity and traffic, you can make money, so why bother about other things?
How many people want to make money but don’t have this way.
Although there are so many comments, there is still no sign of decreasing.
Early in the morning of that day, a user named Asan Admirer posted a comment.
"You country bumpkins know nothing. Lu Yiyan has a high-class face. Do you know what international aesthetics are? You country bumpkins who have never seen the world should stop embarrassing yourself."
As soon as this post was published, there were a lot of replies below.
"Yes, yes, that's right. Chinese people are really pathetic. They have never seen high-end goods."
"This is a model. Do you know what a model is? Modern and stylish. Farmers should stay away from it."
"You guys say that Hu Jiake is pretty, but ask if anyone in the world agrees with that? It's just a bunch of Chinese guys having fun. What the hell."
Soon, the popularity of this post was hyped up and automatically rose to the position of hot posts.
Cao Hongchang happened to be leading a charge in the comment section. When he saw this post, he suddenly felt his blood rushing to his head and immediately started typing on the keyboard.
"Are you blind? Can't you tell who is beautiful?"
As soon as he replied to this post, someone immediately refuted it below: "Lv Yiyan is an international supermodel. Even foreigners say she is beautiful. You say she is not beautiful? Who do you think you are? Who is blind?"
A bunch of people immediately responded to the post, and their criticism was directed at Cao Hongchang: "After reading your reply, I can see that you have such low standards, like a dog that bites anyone it sees. It's the 21st century, and you're still pursuing traditional aesthetics. No wonder our country lags so far behind foreign countries."
"The owner's aesthetic taste is probably still stuck in the last century. Maybe he thinks people with braids are good-looking."
"Haha, what old and young?"
Obviously, these people are the water army hired by Zhang Chaoyang to stir up opposition. They are invincible in terms of shamelessness. How can college students like Cao Hongchang be their opponents? Faced with all kinds of perverse theories, they were so angry that their faces turned pale, but they felt powerless and didn't know how to refute.
However, at this moment, another group of people suddenly appeared and launched a crazy attack on Lu Yiyan. They were even more shameless than the navy hired by Zhang Chaoyang. They ignored all facts and used the same method against Lu Yiyan, beating the navy so hard that they were at a loss.
Cao Hongchang was naturally overjoyed to see that help had arrived. He immediately led his fans to join this force and launched a fierce attack on the water army.
In just one afternoon, a total of more than 10,000 posts were published, and the popularity went viral. Many Internet editors rushed over to watch and report on it.
Just as the two sides were arguing, Aida Jing, who had a real-name authentication title, appeared and directly replied: "Lv Yiyan is a beauty of the new era. It is normal that the old-fashioned aesthetic level in China does not appreciate it. The aesthetics in China are out of touch with the world. If we don't change, we will lag behind the times. If we don't change, the aesthetics of Xiaguo will be over."
Aida Jing's bright yellow V certification immediately shocked everyone, because Aida Jing had written campus folk songs before, and many people knew him. Now seeing Aida Jing appear and support , these Lv Yiyan supporters seemed to know the theoretical basis and spiritual leader all of a sudden.
"It's Ada Jing!"
“Damn it, you don’t believe us, but you can’t possibly not believe Aida Jing’s words, right?”
"Look for yourselves. Aida Jing is a master. He has already said that this is the aesthetic of the new era. What else do you have to complain about?"
"Teacher Ai is right."
"Teacher Ai, I admire you for daring to come out and uphold justice at this time."
"Teacher Ai is the conscience of the industry."
"Did you hear that, you haters? Lu Yiyan has high-level aesthetics and international style. You country bumpkins should shut up."
These people came with great force, and Aida Jing's weight was too great, which made some people involuntarily doubt themselves.
Do we really not understand aesthetics?
Someone like Lu Yiyan is a real beauty with an international style?
In this era, the term "public intellectual" has not yet become a derogatory term, so when a professor speaks out, he still has credibility.
Add to that the large number of internet trolls coming out to disrupt the situation, how can ordinary netizens do anything?
Even though they are the majority in absolute numbers, the water army is organized. They get paid for posting and dozens or even hundreds of people can easily besiege one person. How can ordinary netizens withstand it?
Soon, Cao Hongchang and others found themselves in an isolated and helpless situation, feeling as if the whole world was against them.
In the men's dormitory of Shuimu University, Cao Hongchang looked at Zhao Kehan dejectedly and said, "Is Lu Yan really prettier than Hu Jiake? Are we the minority?"
Zhao Kehan was also a little unconfident, and shook his head and said, "I don't know. Oh, my mind is so confused. What the hell is going on?"
Obviously, there is a fierce conflict between reality and thought.
Although aesthetics is a very subjective thing, the perception of beauty is converging. No matter how others exaggerate, it cannot change the fact that Lu Yiyan is not good-looking.
But no one knows what the foreign countries are like now. The psychology of admiring the strong and worshipping foreign things is very serious in Xia country now. Whether intentionally or not, everyone has been influenced to have a critical mentality towards everything about their own nation from an instinctive level. And a hundred years ago, there was a trend of total Westernization, which made everyone subconsciously think that foreign things are better than domestic things.
Now people don’t know what the situation is like abroad, and public intellectuals who have been abroad have come out collectively to belittle everything in China and praise everything abroad, which has gradually shaken everyone’s persistence. Many people have been brainwashed by these public intellectuals.
After the report went viral, people everywhere were discussing this issue.
Lu Yiming couldn't help laughing when he saw Aida Jing's death.
This guy can even praise Ah San as a god. His shamelessness is rare in the world. Lu Yiming was not surprised at all that he came out to support Lu Yiyan.
On QQ, Li Quanwang sent a few links to Lu Yiming and asked, "What exactly is going on? Why has it suddenly become such a big deal?"
Lu Yiming said: "It was Sohu who was behind this . The verbal battle was just a superficial phenomenon. The real purpose was to compete for traffic by provoking a war. And Zhang Chaoyang must have hired a large number of Internet trolls. The signs are too obvious."
Li Quanwang was shocked: "I haven't made a move yet, where did the water army come from?"
Lu Yiming could not help but complain: "I am not the only smart person in the world. Others can also form an online army."
In the next few days, not only Aida Jing stood up for Lu Yiyan, but Li Dongtian also stood up to sing praises for Lu Yiyan.
Although Aida Jing is very well-known, Li Dongtian is a more professional in the field.
The two of them stirred up the topic and it became even more heated. Not only on the Internet, but also in offline print media, there were many related reports. It can be said that the topic was completely popular.
During this process, Dior's popularity has skyrocketed and its popularity has expanded rapidly.
Needless to say, the number of registrations for the blog has doubled compared to a month ago!
A world where only Lu Yiyan is scolded has been created.
All in all, everyone was very happy - including Lu Yiyan.
Although he was criticized, he made money. Many endorsements and advertisements came to him, and the prices he offered were higher than the last.
Compared to the small amount of money, what is being scolded?
In the hotel, Li Dongtian, Fang Xingdong and Aida Jing were toasting each other.
Fang Xingdong said: "Thanks to Teacher Ai's righteous words, we were able to stabilize our position."
Aida Jing smiled slightly, gently waved the folding fan with black characters on a white background in her hand, and said, "No, no, I'm just trying my best."
Afterwards, Fang Xingdong said to Li Dongtian: "Lv Yiyan is now completely famous. With Dior's resources and a few more international awards, her position in the modeling circle will be secure."
At this point, Fang Xingdong changed the subject: "By the way, I heard that Miss Lu is going to star in a new movie produced by Xiamei?"
Li Dongtian smiled proudly and said, "It is true. I have already discussed it with director John Curran. Lv Yiyan is very good. She successfully passed the audition and got a role."
Aida Jing asked, "What movie?"
Li Dongtian said: "The Veil."
It has to be said that Li Dongtian is very capable in the entertainment industry. He contributed a lot behind the scenes to enable Lu Yiyan to star in this movie.
Of course, the more important reason is that a movie starring an American needs an Asian actress with distinctive looks to set off the film. After all, beauty and ugliness are created by contrast.
The heroine of "The Masked" is played by Naomi Watts, a blonde beauty whose looks can make King Kong masturbate on the roof of the Empire State Building.
If she were to add an Asian green leaf with squinty eyes and odd facial features to set her off, wouldn't her beauty be even more evident?
Just as a few people were talking and laughing, there was a knock on the door. Aida Jing raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Is there anyone else who hasn't come yet?"
Fang Xingdong smiled and said, "No, I specially prepared some exciting programs for you two today."
He clapped his hands, and the door of the box was immediately pushed open by a middle-aged woman with heavy makeup.
Following her were a dozen girls dressed in various styles.
"My three gentlemen, you must have a good meal and a good time. I specially called a few beauties to come over to cheer you up. This is Xiaohong, this is Xiaofang, and this is..."
"They are all new here and don't quite understand the rules here. Please bear with them."
Fang Xingdong looked at these unfamiliar faces and suddenly his eyes lit up. He smiled and said, "No wonder I was wondering why they all looked so unfamiliar. You are very sensible. You know that I am tired of the ones I played with before. What you brought today are all new things."
Ai Dajing looked at the young Xiaohong's big watery eyes and almost drooled: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. I can teach you."
What's the point of squinting eyes being an international aesthetic? Those are work, and what's happening in front of you is life.
It's fine to tell lies to fool ghosts, but you can't fool yourself.
He waved at Xiaohong, with a lewd expression on his face, and asked in a greasy tone: "Little girl, judging from your figure, you are from the South, right?"
Xiaohong lowered her head and said shyly: "I am indeed from the south. The boss has a good eye."
Aida Jing couldn't wait to say: "Come sit next to me, let me see if you have fully grown..."
Seeing that Aida Jing had already started playing, Fang Xingdong naturally did not hesitate. After asking Li Dongtian to pick one, he chose the remaining one.
At the intersection, in a shabby Wuling van with a convenience store advertisement poster on it, Li Qiu pushed Han Lin who was dozing off beside him and said, "Stop sleeping. The mission target has appeared!"
Han Lin suddenly woke up and reflexively grabbed the camera beside him. He sat up straight, wiped the corner of his mouth, and said dazedly: "Ah? Here? Then I'll go take a picture."
As he spoke, he checked his camera, put on his black coat, got out of the car and walked towards the hotel wall.
He used to be a reporter in a newspaper, but was fired for reporting on a chemical company that discharged wastewater indiscriminately. Now he has changed his career and become a paparazzi.
Not long ago, he joined Li Qiu's team and became his gold medal "photographer", and then received a big order from Future Capital.
Li Qiu reminded: "Remember to take clear photos, both men and women."
Han Lin smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've won a photography competition. I promise I can capture every wrinkle on his face."
Then he got out of the car and nimbly climbed up the three or four meter high wall along a telephone pole. He squatted in a place covered by the crown of a big tree and took out his camera facing the window of the hotel a few meters away.
After taking a few photos, he climbed up the tree to another direction and took a few more photos.
Back in the car, Han Lin couldn't help but complain: "What kind of person is this Aida Jing? She's an aesthetics expert, but she keeps saying that squinty eyes are a high-level aesthetic and an international standard for selecting supermodels. But when she came to the club, her true colors were exposed. She only picks girls with big eyes when she plays with them."
Li Qiu smiled and said, "Taking money to help others get rid of disasters is called professionalism. How can you say that? This person has perfect professional ethics."
After taking the photos, the two drove away.
The next day, Li Qiu walked into Lu Yiming's office with the photo.
Li Yiwen was there too. When he saw Li Qiu, he immediately asked curiously, "Old Li, why are you here?"
Li Qiu took out a file bag and said with a smile, "Mr. Li is here too. These are some things that Mr. Lu asked me to find. I brought them here."
Lu Yiming opened the file bag and took out a few photos from it.
Li Yiwen immediately recognized Ada Jing in the photo and immediately picked up the photo to look at it carefully.
"Fuck, this Ada Jing is really good at having fun. She has a rich nightlife."
Lu Yiming also picked up the photos and looked at them, praising them: "Old Li, where did you find such talent? These photos are so artistic, amazing. This composition and perspective relationship, if it were a serious news story, it would definitely win an award."
Li Qiu smiled and did not give a direct answer, but said: "As long as President Lu is satisfied."
Lu Yiming just said this casually. Of course, he knew that Li Qiu would not reveal the guy who had eaten. He immediately smiled and said, "Satisfied, I am very satisfied. You can go to the finance department to get the money. It's still the same old rules."
After receiving the balance, Li Qiu did not stay.
After he left, Li Yiwen asked Lu Yiming, "What are you going to do with these photos? Do you want to mess with Aida Jing? I don't think these few photos are enough. After all, they are not bed photos."
Lu Yiming curled his lips and said, "I don't want bed photos. First, I'm afraid they will dirty my eyes. Second, to ruin a person, you don't necessarily need bed photos."
Li Yiwen looked at Lu Yiming's sinister smile, shook his head helplessly, and said: "Hey, it's really bad luck for Aida Jing to be targeted by you. Since you don't plan to use the bed photos, how are you going to deal with him? What's the use of these photos?"
Lu Yiming put the photo away again, put it in the bag, and said, "This will be kept secret for now, just wait and see."
