Chapter 537: Manipulating Public Opinion in a Blink of an Eye

When we first started preparing for the road show, the company planned to place it in a university.

After all, the subject matter of the movie "Search" is quite controversial, and Huo Mingjie is extremely well-known among young people. If it is placed in a top domestic university, the effect should be better.

But in the end, Huo Mingjie's road show was held because Dadi Cinemas invited Huo Mingjie to come over in order to promote its newly opened flagship theater in Yanjing at the expense of increasing the film schedule rate and favors.

In this cinema with the most advanced equipment, the auditorium, which can accommodate up to 800 people, was packed with seats at this time.

With the cooperation of the host, Huo Mingjie and Zhang Hanyun went up to chat before the movie officially started, and selected a few lucky viewers to answer questions.

Because they had almost never been exposed to road shows as a form of publicity before, the audience was a little reluctant at first, and only a few people dared to raise their hands to sign up.

And then Huo Mingjie was able to handle it appropriately, whether it was answering the content of the movie or asking questions from excited fans.

After answering two or three questions, more and more viewers raised their hands to ask questions.

When the host, who controlled the rhythm of the event, saw that the time was almost up, he said directly:

"Okay, it's almost time, so here's the last question!"

As soon as these words came out, some people who were embarrassed to raise their hands just now became a little unsteady, and then most of the people in the theater raised their hands in unison.

The people sitting in the theater now, except for some of them film critics and other related people in the industry, the rest are fans of Huo Mingjie!

In order to see Huo Mingjie, many people buy tickets at huge prices from scalpers...

This last opportunity to ask Huo Mingjie questions is really rare!

Many people are regretting why they were so embarrassed just now.

Huo Mingjie, who was standing on the stage, faced the crowd of hands raised in the audience and casually nodded at the young man wearing red long sleeves in the middle row.

Then almost everyone in the theater wearing red clothes stood up quickly, regardless of whether they were sitting where Huo Mingjie pointed.

In the end, the staff had to come over to coordinate and advise before the event could continue.

There was a girl sitting next to the man in red clothes. When he took the microphone from the staff, she quickly pulled him and said a few words.

The man in red clothes hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't resist his girlfriend's request and could only stand up and ask:

"Is Mr. Huo Mingjie in love?"

As soon as this question was raised, everyone in the theater immediately burst into cheers.

Let alone fans, passers-by are also very concerned about this issue!

The entertainment reporters who were invited to the theater were also a little excited.

Although I think the possibility of Huo Mingjie’s answer is very low, just writing a title like “Huo Mingjie responds to love” when reporting is enough to attract a lot of traffic...

Regarding this question, Huo Mingjie said seriously:

"Well, actually I haven't seriously considered this yet. But I can guarantee that if I have a girlfriend in the future, I will announce it as soon as possible."

To highlight the point, there is a "serious girlfriend" to be announced, but good friends who have slept with each other do not count...

Anyway, Huo Mingjie's attitude and tone at this time were quite sincere and sincere!

Although everyone is not very satisfied with this answer, it is still acceptable.

But at this moment, the man in red clothes hurriedly opened his mouth and asked while the microphone was still in his hand:

"Well, actually I have another question I want to ask..."

"Mr. Huo Mingjie, are you the cyclist in that video online?"

In fact, compared to the gossip and scandals that girlfriends like to hear, young men still pay more attention to "shady news"!

The rules of the event were that one lucky audience member could ask a question. What the young man did at this time was actually a bit of a cheat. The staff on the side quickly went over and snatched the microphone back.

However, this question was asked at the right time. Huo Mingjie almost thought he was a shill arranged by his company, so he didn't mind answering it.

Huo Mingjie took the microphone and pretended to be surprised:

"Ah, has anyone photographed it and put it on the Internet?"

Having said this, he smiled shyly and said:

"Okay, it should be me. There was a traffic jam on the road during the evening rush hour, and I was afraid I wouldn't be able to make it in time... When I came, my bicycle chain was almost smoking!"

This kind of witticism is still not something that can come out of the mouth of a big star these days.

After all, we don’t pay much attention to the “down-to-earth” personality nowadays, so we all like to wear it!

So after Huo Mingjie showed such "down-to-earthness", the people in the theater suddenly let out a burst of good-natured laughter.

Taking advantage of the good atmosphere, Huo Mingjie led Zhang Hanyun, who was acting as the mascot, to exit the stage.

At this time, Zhao Huixia, who had just arrived in a nanny car, was looking at her phone backstage, paying attention to the public opinion comments on the Internet.

As soon as she saw Huo Mingjie coming out, she immediately greeted him with a smile on her face, and then said with admiration:

"Boss, your skills are amazing!"

She stayed with Huo Mingjie for a long time and always thought that she could be regarded as a real boss in the field of Internet marketing.

But Huo Mingjie's flash of inspiration today still shocked and admired her.

Let alone Huo Mingjie who deliberately "showed off his beauty", how many people could stand it? Just say that the "fun" created by this kind of star is especially loved by the public!

The company even pretended to be a passerby at the beginning and filmed a video and uploaded it, and then asked Sohu Weibo to cooperate, and it rushed to the hot search in a short time, making it known to everyone.

Although the public opinion on the Internet at this time was mostly praising Huo Mingjie's appearance, while watching the fun, they also complained about the morning and evening rush hours in Yanjing.

But the news of the roadshow of the movie "Search" was so subtle that netizens knew it!

Zhang Hanyun, who was standing aside, looked at Huo Mingjie with a pair of bright eyes at this time.

She didn't forget that at this time last year, she was forced to have no way out by the public opinion on the Internet.

At this time, looking at her new boss's means of manipulating public opinion with every move, it was really too, too powerful!

Huo Mingjie smiled and continued:

"Since the popularity is high enough now, withdraw all the people you arranged to cry with you!"

Zhao Huixia felt a little embarrassed, and then quickly agreed.

Originally, Zhao Huixia's plan was to arrange a few extras to cry fake tears, and then ask the media to hype it up.

In fact, this method will be very common in the future, but now there is no roadshow promotion, so Zhao Huixia can think of this bad idea, which is relatively fresh.

It's just a bit too exaggerated, and it may not be appropriate.
