Chapter 3111: Panic in Hollywood

Li Zaiyong didn't know much about Hollywood, so he naturally didn't understand Zhou Buqi's purpose of organizing a charity meeting.

It's certainly not about the money.

But because of the charity itself.

Now Hollywood is facing a crisis, and a large number of female stars are threatened. At this time, as the leader of the industry, Ziweixing Global does not contribute money to help solve the crisis. At least it should stand up and express its support for the actresses. protective attitude.

This is a major trend in social atmosphere.

So after communicating with Li Zairong, Zhou Buqi’s second step was to communicate with Jason Kilar, CEO of Ziweixing Global.

“What’s going on in Hollywood right now?”

"People are panicking."

"Ah?" Zhou Buqi felt that it was a bit of a fuss, "Isn't it?"

Kilar said with a smile: "Many people are worried, not just female stars, many male stars, many industry executives, well-known producers and directors are even more worried."

"What are they worried about?" Zhou Buqi said amusedly, "Even if a group of big men take selfies and are seen naked, it won't have much impact on their image."

Kilar said meaningfully: "What if the photos in their albums are not theirs?"

"Um?"

Zhou Buqi raised his eyebrows.

Kilar said: "Many producers and directors have many private photos of actresses on their mobile phones. I saw it with my own eyes once when I was socializing. A producer recommended actresses to me There were hundreds of photos of actresses on his phone, and he asked me to choose from them. I was really shocked. Some were photos of lingerie, swimsuits, and most of them were large-scale photos without clothes. Almost all of them were taken by him with his mobile phone.”

Zhou Buqi was not surprised by this.

He had encountered similar things in the country.

When some producers or casting directors recommend actresses, they just like the products on the shelves in a supermarket, letting investors or big directors pick and choose at will. However, the atmosphere in China is slightly better than that in Hollywood. They are all developed photos of people wearing clothes and hung on the wall, waiting for selection.

Of course, it probably depends on the occasion.

Zhou Buqi went to formal occasions.

Of course, the photos hanging on the wall should not be too large, and they should be swimsuit photos at most.

If it was a private social gathering, it is estimated that this group of people would have a lot of "treasure items" to offer. Especially in recent years, the domestic entertainment industry has become more and more prosperous. Many studios have been established, and each studio has signed many beautiful girls.

For many studios, getting an agent is risky.

After finally spending a lot of resources and funds to train a new girl, she turned around and left. Isn’t this a huge loss? If a female artist is signed to a super long-term contract of ten or twenty years, whether it will be legally recognized or not disclosed, once the outside world knows about it, she will be morally condemned.

The best way to control it is actually to take private photos.

After someone becomes popular, he becomes ungrateful and disowns the person... Humph! With such indecent and private photos in hand, the employer has the initiative. How can I make you popular, how can I destroy you!

In this way, actresses, female artists, female singers, female models, female idols, etc. will have no choice but to be obedient.

Not to mention others, Zhou Buqi actually held in his hands the private photos of dozens or hundreds of girls. Many girls who had dreams of being a star or a mistress took the initiative to send them to him. These photos are the "letters of vote" they gave to express their loyalty.

It's just that he's not interested in these things and hasn't seen much of them.

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "It seems that many people still don't know how hackers cracked the cloud album. In fact, there is no need to worry too much. This is not cracked by technology, but by using the stupidest method to use those The regular password is tried out. As long as the password is slightly more complex, it is impossible to leak it.”

Kilar said: "Many male producers, male directors, and male actors also use some common passwords in their mobile phone photo albums."

Zhou Buqi said: "Even so, their risk of exposure will be far less than that of female stars. The public is more interested in female stars, especially young and beautiful female stars, who will be interested in a group of old men. Those hackers are A layman would never think that the place where most nude photos are stored is the cloud photo albums of producers and directors who hold power in Hollywood.”

"It's true." Kilar felt that the big boss's analysis was very clear. "As far as the current situation is concerned, the victims are indeed women, and the hackers did not attack any men."

Zhou Buqi asked: "There's still no response from Apple? No clarification yet?"

Kilar said: "Not yet. The whole story is still unclear. Apple may not take it seriously yet!"

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "That's good, it gives people in Hollywood enough time to panic!"

"Do we need to explain?"

"No! The more people are scared, the better! Especially those bastards and villains who don't respect women, let them be afraid!"

"I heard that many people in Hollywood are reflecting on technology and saying that technology will destroy Hollywood." Kilar was a little worried about this. "Once such a trend spreads, it will also have a negative impact on us. According to It is planned that our streaming platform Peacock will be officially launched in half a month. This may cause Hollywood to resist the new trend of technology, which will be very detrimental to us.”

Zhou Buqi said: "It doesn't matter, we can carry the flag!"

"Carry the flag?"

Kilar didn't understand what Boss Zhou meant.

"We must take up the banner of safeguarding justice in Hollywood and create a 'Justice League'." Zhou Buqi asked: "This time, will any film company compromise and pay ransom to those hackers?"

Kilar said: "At the moment, no. After all, this time is different from before. The impact this time is too wide. No one can guarantee how many photos the hacker has in hand or how many people have been affected. If the ransom is paid, It will probably be a bottomless pit.”

This is consistent with Zhou Buqi's judgment, and he asked: "Then the price can only be borne by the female celebrities individually?"

"That's all." Kilar sighed, "This needs to be weighed by the female artist herself. If there are no excessive photos in her photo library, it doesn't matter if they are made public. If it is true There are some particularly hard-to-see photos, and there’s really no way around it. For example, I heard that an actress even took a series of photos of her being ‘locked’ by her pet dog, which shocked everyone.”

"No way?" Zhou Buqi was stunned, "Is it a rumor?"

Kilar said: "I don't know, but there must be some people who have taken some selfies that exceed the bottom line. Hollywood...the better the actor, the crazier and more creative he is. Creativity means destroying traditional cognition. These photos cannot be published under any circumstances unless a ransom is paid.”

Zhou Buqi said: "As an industry leader in Hollywood, Ziweixing Global has the responsibility and obligation to stand up and help these victimized female stars solve their difficulties. Many young and unknown actresses may not have the ability to pay, nor may they be able to pay. To be able to handle such a complex matter, a professional team is needed to provide the most professional guidance and help to this group of victims.”

“Shall we provide legal support?”

Kilar also sympathizes with the victims, and it would be personally satisfying for him to stand up and offer support.

Zhou Buqi said: "What we have to do now is two things. First, gather the relevant victims together, jointly launch a class action lawsuit against Apple, and claim huge compensation from Apple! Regardless of whether this case can be successful or not, we must The momentum has been created. Those female compatriots cannot be bullied in vain. Apple has the responsibility and obligation to protect them!"

Kilar was very excited, "This is good! It should be done! The trend of women's rights is getting more and more fierce. Ziweixing Global should stand up, stand with women, and provide them with the greatest support."

Zhou Buqi said: "Second, organize a charity meeting and invite all the celebrities in Hollywood. We will raise a sum of money, and then use this money to pay ransoms for some victimized female stars. At the same time, we will Apple will file a lawsuit to fight for their rights.”

"Okay! In this way, Ziweixing Global's leadership position in Hollywood will really be established!"

Kilar was full of fighting spirit.

This kind of thing is not only related to the ideal of a just cause, but if done well, it will also accumulate reputation and reputation for the individual, which will make him full of motivation.
