Chapter 317 Dog Talent Show
Zhou Shaoming first contacted NBC, CBS, ABC and other TV stations to see which ones were willing to cooperate with him. The three TV stations were very familiar with Zhou Shaoming's golden signature.
The last time Zhou Shaoming was filming "Resident Evil", he took advantage of Halloween and selected some costumed zombies, and even paid one million US dollars as a salary.
But that time made Zhou Shaoming a lot of money. Not only did his movie become popular among people, but he also made millions from the TV station. Of course, the TV station is not a fool. They only agreed when it was profitable.
They are a bunch of evil capitalists.
The three major TV stations in the United States were somewhat interested in Zhou Shaoming's whimsical idea, because Zhou Shaoming had done even more bizarre things than this. However, it turned out that Zhou Shaoming was right, so they chose Zhou Shaoming this time.
In fact, these TV stations also saw that after Zhou Shaoming's official website released the news, more than 10,000 people signed up, nearly 100,000 people left messages and hundreds of thousands of clicks, and they knew that the ratings would definitely not be too low.
After Zhou Shaoming contacted several TV stations, he asked them to send people to discuss with Jon. Jon was also a greedy owner. Not only did he want the copyright of one million, but he also demanded that Zhou Shaoming's movie must be promoted. Finally, he and
Fox Broadcasting Company, which Zhou Shaoming has cooperated with before, once again cooperated with Supernova to launch a dog talent show.
The dog talent show not only shocked the American Internet, but also spread to all over the world through radio waves.
"Look, our sensationalist Smith Zhou is back again. It seems that he still hasn't learned the lesson from last time. I wonder how many times this bold director will have to stumble before he learns to keep a low profile?" This is Black Zhou's emergency.
Commentary from the Chicago Sun-Times.
"We are already used to Director Zhou Shaoming's whimsical ideas. Every time before filming, Director Zhou Shaoming will bring us different surprises. I believe this time will be no exception." This is support for Zhou Xianfeng's "
Yahoo Entertainment》.
There are mixed reviews for the dog talent show online, but the voices of praise far outnumber the voices of disparagement. After all, dogs are one of man’s best friends, and there are many people who like dogs. Judging from the number of people who signed up this time,
I can see it.
Those who praised Zhou Shaoming unanimously believed that Zhou Shaoming was an animal protectionist. The American Animal Protection Association was also planning to award him a medal of honor or something like that.
Those who belittle him think that Zhou Shaoming is putting on a show to promote his own movie, which is disgusting.
But these sounds couldn't affect Zhou Shaoming's mood. After a few days of preparation, the dog talent show officially began. This talent show is actually very simple, that is, it first passes the audition. The registered dogs must first pass the appearance test. Although this
This is a bit difficult for dog owners to accept. But they can also understand that after all, it is going to be on the big screen. If the image is bad, it will not only lose the dog's face, but also lose their own face.
There are strict rules regarding the appearance of a dog. First of all, it must be a three-year-old German Shepherd. Secondly, it must be tall and majestic. Cute dogs are obviously not included in this category. Thirdly, it must be obedient and smart. It must be able to do some basic actions.
Finally, you have to be brave, because there are fighting scenes with dogs, and the dogs don’t know that it’s a movie, so timid dogs are not good.
This time the dog talent show not only has audition locations in every state in the United States, but also has audition locations in major countries and regions around the world.
Europe. China, Japan. Australia, Canada, Russia.
Of course, except for the United States, other countries cooperated with local TV stations. It was just a dog talent show. Jon was so tired that his feet could not touch the ground and he lost a lot of weight.
There is only one audition location in each country, and ten dogs from each country are selected. Then Supernova Company will issue air tickets to the United States to participate in the finals.
For this dog audition, Supernova was really put to the test. Ben also suggested that the dogs who were not selected be brought together and make a movie about dogs.
The dog talent show is in full swing. In seven countries and regions, including China, owners take their dogs to the auditions every day. Some people even bring their cats to the auditions, allowing the staff to
I can't laugh or cry.
In other countries, Supernova Film Company always chooses the most famous and largest local TV station to cooperate with, but this is an exception in China. Because China’s CCTV is very wealthy, it also scorns programs such as dog talent shows. In the end, Jon had no choice but to choose a local TV station.
TV station.
However, this local TV station called Mango TV did a great job, making Supernova's dog show very famous in China. CCTV regretted it after knowing it, because Mango TV's ratings suddenly shot up.
Each state in the United States has one dog quota, and there are a total of twenty places in other places and indeed, a total of seventy dogs entered the finals.
The final was naturally recorded at the Fox Broadcasting Company in Los Angeles. After a week of fierce competition, a German shepherd from France finally won and became the second male lead in "I Am Legend."
This time the dog talent show has also historically exceeded the ratings of 140%. Although many people have been badmouthing this show, Zhou Shaoming once again disappointed them.
Fox had been claiming before the dog show that Zhou Shaoming took advantage of people's love for dogs to create this show, which was deplorable. The Chicago Sun and the Washington Post also pointed out that Zhou Shaoming did this for himself.
To promote the new film.
However, Zhou fans have refuted this view, because with Zhou Shaoming's current box office appeal, simply waving his name in the movie subtitles is basically the best publicity. How can he use this small program for show?
However, it is undeniable that this time Zhou Shaoming's showmanship was too obvious. Although he was applauded, the sarcasm was endless.
As Zhou Shaoming's achievements get higher and higher, the sarcasm of the resistance he encounters becomes louder and louder, which is inevitable. After all, no matter how perfect you are, there will never be a lack of criticizing people in this world.
"Although I am a staunch protector of animalism, I will wholeheartedly support bringing the story of dogs and people to the big screen. However, Smith Zhou's recent actions are completely disguised as protecting dogs.
To promote your own movie. We can’t help but ask Director Smith Zhou, do you really know dogs? What is the purpose of those test questions you set on the dog talent show?..." - "Washington Post"
"When I saw the dogs reluctantly doing difficult actions one after another, I really couldn't help but yell. These damn TV stations and film companies (alluding to Zhou Shaoming), for their own selfish interests
He comes to torture human friends, but he wears the cloak of an animal protectionist. I am really ashamed of him. People who truly love animals, please open your eyes as soon as possible and see the true face of this shameless person." -
—"Chicago Sun-Times"
"Recently, the dog talent show "I'm the Best" jointly recorded by Fox TV and Supernova Films has caused a lot of controversy on the Internet. Many people have denounced it as using dogs for hype." - ABC
(abc) "Evening News"
"I have always been disgusted with Smith Weekly, and this time is no exception." - Yahoo netizen Pete.
"Although Smith Chow's movies are indeed good, I really can't compliment him as a person. I think I'm great just because I have some talent, so go ahead and eat shit." - Netizen Sam
Looking at the scolding on the Internet, both York and Lisa couldn't help but worry about Zhou Shaoming. As Zhou Shaoming's die-hard fans, they have always supported Zhou Shaoming. Now Lisa has quit her job and wholeheartedly helps Zhou Shaoming manage Los Angeles.
The daily work of the movie fan club.
Of course, York and Lisa were in favor of this dog talent show. But as Zhou Shaoming's achievements became more and more dazzling, people who didn't take Zhou Shaoming seriously in the past also felt a lot of pressure, and naturally they raised objections.
There are more and more.
Many die-hard fans and opponents of Zhou Shaoming started a war of words on the Internet. This was called the biggest war in the new century by the media and encompassed the whole world.
Almost every country, every computer, and every netizen has paid attention to this scolding war. Of course, most of them are just soy sauce, and Zhou Shaoming does not have such great influence now.
In East Asia, this scolding war is particularly dazzling. Because Zhou Shaoming is Chinese, every Chinese is his strongest support. Especially at the last Oscar ceremony, Zhou Shaoming introduced his name as Zhou Shaoming in his native language, which moved me deeply.
Every Chinese.
But as China's old enemies, Japan and South Korea have always been sour about Zhou Shaoming's success. If they seize this opportunity this time, they will naturally not let it go.
"No matter what the purpose of Smith Zhou's hosting the dog talent show this time, his arbitrarily excluding the Republic of Korea is a very crude approach." - "Chosun Ilbo"
"As most media in the United States said, Smith Weekly is completely taking advantage of people's love for dogs to hold this sensational program, and its purpose is also obvious." - "Sankei Shimbun"
On the Internet, Japanese and Korean netizens also ridiculed Zhou Shaoming. Although some liked Zhou Shaoming, they were all buried under the scoldings.
