Preface:
Hey, everyone who eats melons, today we have to talk about the big drama of "sudden change" in the entertainment industry - Gao Xiaosong's "roller coaster" life.
Back then, he was the "Tsinghua genius" who stood on the cusp of culture, music, literature, film and television, he could be seen everywhere, and it was called an infinite scenery.
But now? Hey, it's all tears, the value dives directly, and the road to comeback is even more bumpy, so that he can circle the earth three times, and he was almost "hidden" in the snow.
The story behind this is more bloody than a bloody drama, let's savor it carefully!
Gao Xiaosong's glorious past
Back then, Gao Xiaosong was "a star in Tsinghua Park", not only was he musically talented, but he also created songs such as "You at the Same Table" and "Brother Who Slept on My Top Bunk", which were synonymous with campus folk songs, and how many people cried their youth.
He also played cross-border cultural programs, like him in "Xiao Shuo" and "Wonderful Sayings", he can always quote scriptures and talk eloquently, that eloquence, that insight, people have to be convinced.
On social media, he is an absolute "opinion leader", with millions of fans and great influence, and he is simply the "top stream" of the cultural circle.
The controversial remarks sparked outrage
But as the saying goes, "disaster comes from the mouth", and Gao Xiaosong did not escape this catastrophe.
As soon as his "golden mouth" was opened, remarks such as "United States has never robbed China's land" and "Japan's invasion of China is a victory of civilization over barbarism" directly ignited the anger of netizens.
This is a discussion of history, it is simply pouring salt on the wounds of the Chinese people! Netizens have turned into "keyboard warriors", and the comment area is lively, with condemnation and criticism one after another, as if overnight, Gao Xiaosong has changed from a "cultural icon" to a "target of public criticism".
The specific data and reasons for the collapse in value
After this wave of operations, Gao Xiaosong's worth was like sitting on a slide, and it fell by 90% all of a swoop.
It's not like I'm just breaking it up, look at the big brands that have cooperated with him, all of them are busy "drawing a line" with him, advertising endorsements are gone, there are fewer program invitations, and even the interaction on social media is a lot colder.
You must know that in this era of "traffic is king", without the support of fans, it is really "cool".
A difficult attempt at a comeback
Gao Xiaosong, who was unwilling to fall silent, naturally wanted to find a way to make a comeback.
He first quietly tested a live broadcast platform, planning to use his old music to win back people's hearts.
The result? There is still a "discordant" voice in the comment area, and netizens don't seem to intend to forgive easily.
What's even worse is that the relevant departments also seem to have lost patience with him, and directly gave a "cool" signal, and the road to comeback was instantly full of thorns.
The reaction of the public knowledge circle
Gao Xiaosong's fall, not only hurt himself, but even the entire public knowledge circle trembled three times.
Those public intellectuals who love to speak up on weekdays have become extremely low-key at this time, as if they have collectively lost their voices overnight.
Why? It's not that I'm afraid of getting burned! In this era of information explosion, one wrong sentence may be a catastrophe, who would dare to stand in line easily? This kind of silence is not only out of the protection of their own interests, but also out of fear of the pressure of public opinion, after all, no one wants to be the next "Gao Xiaosong".
The continued influence of public opinion
The Gao Xiaosong incident is like a pebble thrown into a lake, causing ripples.
On social media, the discussion about him remained hot, and netizens expressed their opinions, some were indignant, some regretted, and some began to reflect on the impact of public figures' words and deeds on society.
This incident undoubtedly sounded the alarm for everyone: in this era of information transparency, public figures must be more cautious about their words and deeds, because every word and sentence may be infinitely amplified and have unexpected consequences.
To be honest, I am really embarrassed in my heart.
After all, no one wants to see a person who was once so outstanding and incomparably good, just because of a casual slip of the tongue, he ruined his originally bright future with his own hands.
But then again, this incident is actually a wake-up call for all of us: no matter who you are, no matter what high position you are in, or what ordinary position you are in, you must be responsible for your words and deeds.
Especially in the current Internet era of rapid information dissemination, the so-called freedom of speech is absolutely not the same as being able to speak arbitrarily as you want, let alone rashly challenging the bottom line of public tolerance and the historical truth that cannot be distorted.
The editor has something to say:
Finally, I would like to say that I hope Gao Xiaosong can learn a lesson from this, and I also hope that every public figure in the entertainment industry and cultural circle can learn from this and use a more positive and positive image to transmit positive energy to the society.
After all, what we need are idols who can lead the trend of the times and convey truth, goodness and beauty, not "topic figures" who only create controversy.
