"Teacher Zhao, let's take you for example. If you want people all over the country to know you, what method will you use?"
Teacher Zhao subconsciously glanced at Zhang Xiuyun, then frowned and thought for a moment, looked up at Wang Ai and said with a smile: "Then I have to work hard."
Seeing Wang Ai making a gesture to let him continue, Teacher Zhao said: "Work hard, evaluate the best, give reports, publish books, and become a well-known teacher in the industry. Then express opinions on education issues in the media and become a nationally famous teacher."
Teacher. Is that enough?"
Wang Ai clapped his hands twice: "That's a good summary. In fact, it's similar in other industries. If you want to expand your reputation, you must be deeply involved in the industry and have sufficient abilities before you can have influence. In other words, ability and influence
It's usually synchronous, right?"
Both Zhang Xiuyun nodded, and Wang Ai continued: "This kind of influence is very solid. For example, Teacher Zhao, if you always have good grades in class, then you will be regarded as an expert, and all your opinions come from
Regarding your work experience summary, I am solid, self-consistent, and convincing enough. From the perspective of accuracy, it is far better than the average person, right?"
"But there is another kind of influence that is weak, and that is the people in the entertainment industry we are going to talk about today." Wang Ai looked at the two people and said: "What do they rely on for their fame? It's the roles, the scripts, or the work of the playwright.
What is the real influence of entertainers given by the designed virtual world? Their own acting skills, which is equivalent to the teacher’s educational ability, right? But the reality is not, because it is difficult for the audience to clearly distinguish actors and roles.
Its influence, especially among teenagers and star-chasing teenagers.”
"In this way, the actor's advantages are magnified, and so are his shortcomings." Zhang Xiuyun added.
Wang Ai nodded: "More than that, I just used Teacher Zhao as an example to say that a person's influence based on his or her job is solid. For example, education experts talk about education, scientists talk about science, workers talk about production lines, and farmers talk about farming.
Doctors talk about health, and actors talk about acting skills. But this scope is relatively narrow. Even if you are the most famous education expert in the country, only parents of the right age are most concerned about the remarks you make, and others still don't care. The only exception is actors."
Speaking of this, Wang Ai subconsciously nodded at the stone table: "Literary and artistic works are for entertainment, and people are indolent. This determines that the audience breadth of literary and artistic works far exceeds that of teachers talking about education, doctors talking about health, and even more.
The actor talked about acting skills."
Zhang Xiuyun frowned and nodded subconsciously when she heard this: "Yes, the influence of actors is too great, beyond the general rule."
Wang Ai smiled: "Why do actors stay away from politics? To put it simply, actors are not politicians, nor are they political scholars. He doesn't understand, but his influence is very great."
Teacher Zhao was aroused to talk: "Politics is something that everyone likes to talk about. If it is talked about by ordinary people, it will not have much influence. If it is right or wrong, it will not matter. But actors are different. They have too much influence.
, and he doesn’t understand it himself. Once he talks rashly, it can easily cause very negative consequences, both for society and himself."
Wang Ai breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "This is the core point of what I want to say today. We have straightened out this logical relationship, and you can educate them like this when you go back. In fact, in a country as chaotic as the United States, it seems that it is okay to talk about politics.
It's nothing, and you won't be retaliated easily, but why do you have such unspoken rules in that kind of country? The principle is the same. If we expand the scope, do actors in other fields understand? Science, education, medical care, religion, thought
Even labor protection, do they understand? All they know is performance, and their influence far exceeds that of the performance itself. When they act recklessly, or in other words, when they abuse their influence, at least
Mislead the masses, and more importantly, harm others and yourself.”
Zhang Xiuyun straightened her back and said seriously: "I understand, I will beat them up when I get back, and my management methods will also need to be specially modified."
"The truth must be explained clearly to them, and they must know why they should shut up instead of just covering their mouths." Wang Ai explained: "In addition, you can collect some popular misconceptions in the entertainment industry. I believe you
I must have heard a lot about it, and then we made targeted refutations and gradually reversed the errors in our thinking."
Zhang Xiuyun remembered something and nodded with a smile: "Just like what you did in the national team?"
Wang Ai laughed: "Yes, successful experience. I guess that although our actors behave well, they must be confused in their thoughts, and even believe those stupid words and nonsense, such as what Shi Guangrong said recently.
, it’s just that our actors are disciplinary and don’t dare to speak out.”
"Those religious words?" Zhang Xiuyun asked.
Wang Ai shrugged: "I read his original words specifically, and it was really stupid."
"What's so stupid about him?" Teacher Zhao asked with interest.
"Let me tell you a concept first, called convert fanaticism, which refers to the phenomenon that Protestants tend to be more religious than old believers. This phenomenon not only exists in the religious field, but also exists in other places. For example, new immigrants are more religious than old citizens.
They behaved more patriotically. The Koreans and Taiwanese who came to mainland China with the Japanese invaders during World War II were more vicious than the Japanese." Wang Ai picked up the cup and took a sip: "Actually, it's easy to understand. Newly joined, I'm afraid.
Being rejected, he has to be more radical in order to gain acceptance. Of course, it also includes the beautiful imagination of a new country and a new collective, which has not yet experienced the impact of the negative problems of this country or group. In short, his words about religion are
Typical convert fanaticism.”
Speaking of this, Wang Ai calmed down and then continued: "For example, he said that because Christianity was introduced into China, the prosperous Tang Dynasty came into existence, and because Shunzhi accepted Tang Ruowang's opinions, the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong came into existence. This is
If you are really stupid, this is called an infinite connection in logic. Just like I can completely attribute the success of "The Burning Years" to his neighbor's dog. It was precisely because the dog peed in front of his house that day.
, so he was choked when he went out, and became very irritable emotionally. This irritability supported his emotional creation of the character during the performance. In the end, the character was successful and the TV series was also successful."
Facing the two people who were laughing, Wang Ai spread his hands: "Can I sum it up like this? It definitely can't work, right? If the dog can't do it, then what about the screenwriter? What about the camera? What about the director? Even the investors? Lighting, stage management, extras,... Even if a TV series can summarize so many decisive factors, is it still decisive? Then why can the prosperous Tang Dynasty or the prosperous ages of Kangxi and Qianlong be summarized as religion being decisive or even the only one?"
