Behind the glamorous screen, there are always moments that are overlooked. They may not make headlines, but they do make waves on a small scale. At a dinner party not long ago, a seemingly ordinary dinner unexpectedly turned into a contest of identity and image. The person at the center of the topic is none other than Zhou Hongyi, a leader in the field of Internet security.
The dinner party that day was supposed to be an ordinary social occasion. Business people, technology elites, media practitioners, and all kinds of people gathered together to talk and laugh or discuss the general trend of the industry. However, when a young man who calls himself an internet celebrity questions it, the atmosphere changes abruptly. He pointed directly at Zhou Hongyi, with a challenge in his words: "Who is the clown?" These four words were like a hammer, breaking the tranquility of the banquet.
Faced with the sudden questioning, Zhou Hongyi's expression froze in an instant. There was a flash of sharpness in his eyes, as if he wanted to pierce the other party. But as a media guru, I know that such occasions require not only sharpness, but also wisdom. Instead of choosing to remain silent or fighting back with anger, Zhou Hongyi responded to the young challenger in an unexpected way.
His words are concise and direct, without flowery rhetoric, but they reveal unquestionable confidence. "On this stage, everyone has a role to play," he said. Some people play heroes, others are spectators. As for the clown, that's just a label in someone else's eyes. These words not only show his calmness, but also make people wonder: in this pluralistic world, can we really easily label others?
This conversation, although short, is like a wonderful one-act play. It is not only a contest between two people, but also a collision of roles and identities in real society. Zhou Hongyi used his answer to not only resolve the embarrassment, but also invisibly convey a message: in the world of media, everyone is the protagonist of their own story, not a supporting role in someone else's script.
As the dinner ended, the people dispersed, but the conversation of that night left a deep impression on the hearts of those present. It reminds us to stay true to ourselves, no matter what the occasion, and not be swayed by outside labels. Because in this era of rapid change, only by insisting on oneself can we go further on the stage of the media.
This is the behind-the-scenes notes of the media master, recording not only a contest at the dinner table, but also a profound reflection on identity. In this uncertain world, everyone can be a director or an actor. It's important to remember that no matter what role we play, the real protagonists are always ourselves.
