Li Mubai knocked on the microphone. Seeing that the reporters below were no longer making a fuss, he cleared his throat and said, "First of all, thank you all friends from the media for coming."
"Here, I want to say two things." After a pause, Li Mubai said: "To the readers and movie fans who care about me, I would like to express my gratitude again. My new book will be published in Mingpao the day after tomorrow.
I also hope that all book fans will support me. In addition, the two previous books have been published, and those who like these two books will be able to buy them in the next few days."
After hearing the news, many reporters applauded.
In addition to some reporters from gossip tabloids, there are also reporters from newspapers and magazines. Many of them are fans of Li Mubai's books. This news is undoubtedly the best news for them.
Since there are two things mentioned before, and the first one is finished, the second one should be about the scandal!
At this moment, almost all reporters were waiting with full attention, fearing to miss every word Li Mubai said next.
"The second thing is related to movies. My new script has been finalized and I will collaborate with Jiahe. This is a movie with an investment budget of 50 million. It has now entered the preparatory stage. The director and starring have been finalized. I believe it.
It won’t take a few days for everyone to receive the news about the power on.” Although the second thing Li Mubai said made everyone very interested, it obviously did not satisfy most reporters.
Especially those gossip reporters. The purpose of coming here today is to collect news about Li Mubai's scandal, but this one was too uncooperative and didn't even mention a word. How the hell are you going to write about it when you go back? You can't just leave it without saying it.
Just make it up and write it randomly. If you really write it down, the problem will be really big. Xiangjiang is an authoritative society. Although gossip is allowed, it must be kept close and reliable.
"I would like to ask Mr. Li, is the protagonist of this new movie one of the two women who had a candlelight dinner with you?"
Not even a second after Li Mubai finished speaking, a reporter asked a question loudly.
"Mr. Li, it is said that one of the actresses is from the mainland and has defected to Mr. Li. What is the relationship between you two?"
After the first reporter asked a question, the reporters suddenly seemed to have forgotten that Li Mubai had remained silent at first. Several reporters raised questions in confusion, hoping to get Li Mubai's answer.
However, Li Mubai stood there quietly, with a slight smile on his face, but did not say a word.
It took less than three minutes for everyone to understand that even though he was silent, he would definitely not get a single piece of news by asking such random questions.
When the reporters in the audience calmed down, Li Mubai looked around and said calmly: "Since friends from the media are paying close attention to this matter, I think if I don't answer, it will be difficult for you to talk to the president after I go back today.
Compilation difference."
Li Mubai said with a smile: "In that case, I will satisfy everyone's curiosity first. But I hope that friends from the media present will cooperate. If you ask questions in a chaotic manner, I can't hear clearly, and I don't know which answer to answer. Then take the next step.
I will leave ten minutes for friends from the media to ask questions. If there is a chaotic situation, I'm sorry, today's press conference will end here."
Although Li Mubai's tone was very calm, there was an undeniable quality in it.
The reporters present have no doubt that Li Mubai is joking. People have the right to answer your questions, and they also have the right to refuse to answer. If the indifferent reporter really made a fuss at this time, then it would be tantamount to making enemies of all his colleagues.
.
The purpose of coming here today was to get the news he wanted, and Li Mubai's move immediately made all reporters see his methods.
Very powerful!
Next, all the reporters understood what they should do. In an instant, the reporters in the audience raised their hands to express that they had questions to ask.
Although some reporters were very disdainful of Li Mubai's threat, after thinking about the consequences of causing trouble, they reluctantly raised their hands. But in their hearts, they cursed Li Mubai a thousand or ten thousand times!
Li Mubai looked down. Standing in the front row was a reporter with a Ming Pao logo. He raised his finger and pointed at the Ming Pao reporter, indicating that he could ask questions.
Li Mubai has always had a cooperative relationship with Ming Pao, so it is not surprising at all that he chose Ming Pao's reporters.
The reporter was also very smart and did not ask about such gossip. He knew that if he wanted to get exclusive news, he would never be able to do so in this situation.
He pondered for a moment and then asked: "Hello, Mr. Li, I am a reporter from Ming Pao. What is the theme of your new film? Who is the director and starring?"
Li Mubai smiled knowingly. This reporter from Ming Pao is really smart and knows how to cooperate.
"The director of the new film is Mr. Wu Yusen, who recently signed a contract with our Oriental DreamWorks, and the male lead in this film is Brother Cheng Long, who is very familiar and loved by everyone. At the same time, I am also a fan of Brother Cheng Long, and his movies
I like them all very much. As for the subject matter, I want to give a hint here, and when it is launched, I think it will definitely satisfy everyone's curiosity."
After answering the first question, Li Mubai looked around. He was not familiar with the media in Xiangjiang, so he casually pointed to a female reporter and said he could ask questions.
The female reporter never thought she was so lucky. She didn't react until her colleague next to her stabbed her jealously and said, "If you don't ask, I will ask for you."
"Excuse me, Mr. Li. There are many rumors that you have hidden rules for actresses. I think Mr. Li is not that kind of person. I like the novels you wrote and the movies you directed. I am also your loyal reader and
Movie fans. But I think more people don’t know the truth and wonder what explanation Mr. Li has for this matter?"
The female reporter still had some professional ethics. Although she asked about a very sensitive issue that everyone was very concerned about, her language was still relatively soft, which at least made it less harsh when Li Mubai heard it.
"Thank you for your support." Regardless of whether what the female reporter said was true or not, Li Mubai expressed his gratitude. After all, he was now considered a public figure, so he still had to be polite.
"I think you asked a question that is of great concern to all the media friends present. To be honest, I really didn't pay attention at first. I think this may be a characteristic of Xiangjiang, and there is nothing too strange about it.
"At this point, Li Mubai suddenly paused and his face darkened, "However, I found that some unscrupulous media have become so arrogant that they can do whatever they want."
"I also have a question here that I would like to ask my friends from the media. Is it true that as long as people of the opposite sex eat or go shopping together, there must be something dirty? Or is it even if people of the same sex eat together or get together?
Is it possible that a gathering would be considered something even more despicable?" Li Mubai's voice gradually became colder: "I have friends from the media present, friends from other entertainment circles, and strangers walking on the street.
Those people are all normal people, with seven emotions and six desires. Even passerby A and passerby B have the right to protect their own rights, and when our rights are violated, I would like to appeal here, that is
We must use the law to protect our rights!”
Li Mubai has always given people a very gentle impression, both in words, deeds and expressions. He always has a slight smile on his face, like a big boy next door, very sunny. However, this time
He had a frosty face and exuded an intimidating aura, which immediately made the media reporters in the audience realize that this talented screenwriter was really angry, and it seemed that the consequences would be serious.
"Just before I held this press conference, I had already reported the case to the Kowloon Police Station to investigate those bad media who wantonly slandered and slandered me. At the same time, I call on all colleagues in the film and television industry and friends in the entertainment industry
, we must block those unscrupulous media and never accept interviews from them, so that there is no news in their newspapers. At the same time, I also hope that those bosses will not publish an advertisement in the unscrupulous tabloid to put them
All escape routes are cut off and a clear blue sky is given to the media in Hong Kong!"
After speaking, Li Mubai didn't care what the reporters would say, he puffed out his chest on the stage and strode out.
This is truly a unique press conference!
No reporter would have expected Li Mubai to be so strong. Moreover, he was declaring war in front of almost all media reporters in Hong Kong. This was not only anger, but also required a kind of courage.
There are so many gossip tabloids in Hong Kong, but can this kind of gossip news really be eradicated?
Obviously, that's impossible.
But more reporters are aware of a serious problem, that is, the tabloids that reported the incident indiscriminately may have a difficult time.
Sure enough, less than two hours after Li Mubai's press conference ended, big-name stars and directors in the Hong Kong film and television industry expressed their support and solidarity for Li Mubai's statement.
If the weight of these celebrities and directors is still not enough, then the spokesperson of the Xiangjiang Police Headquarters said that they would rectify the notices in newspapers and magazines, so that the bosses of those tabloids realized that this time they are playing big!
