Preface
The entertainment industry is always full of all kinds of jaw-dropping news, but what happened recently made people feel a chill, the popular actress Yang Mi was secretly photographed under her skirt, and the photos spread all over the Internet overnight.
reminds people of what Jiang Mengjie said before, what kind of words are they that seem so meaningful at this time? Why has the clandestine filming incident become more and more serious?
The dark side of the entertainment industry: clandestine photography incidents are frequent
In this era dominated by big data, what celebrities do has attracted much attention, but this attention sometimes deteriorates and evolves into an invasion of privacy.
In fact, not only Yang Mi, but also Zhang Hanyun, Jiang Mengjie and many other actresses have encountered similar troubles, and the occurrence of these events has exposed the dark side of the entertainment industry, and some so-called "fans" do not hesitate to take risks in order to satisfy their selfish desires.
Their behavior not only violates the privacy of celebrities, but also disrespects the dignity of women, and what is even more infuriating is that these secretly taken photos often go viral on the Internet. Some unscrupulous people also use these photos to make threats.
Causing secondary harm to the victim, this kind of behavior is undoubtedly a repeated test on the bottom line of morality and law, in the face of such a situation, some celebrities choose to remain silent, and some bravely stand up to defend their rights, Jiang Mengjie once disclosed her experience of being secretly photographed and blackmailed.
Her approach is commendable, she not only protects herself, but also sets an example for those who may have suffered from similar situations, but it is not enough to rely on the courage of individual celebrities, and to solve this problem once and for all, it will take the joint efforts of the whole society.
We need better legal protections, tougher punishments, and a healthier social atmosphere, and only when everyone respects the privacy and dignity of others, can we jointly create a more civilized and safer social environment, and in this process, everyone should contribute their part.
How celebrities respond: cold treatment or brave voice?
In the face of the bad behavior of candid photography, different celebrities have different ways of coping, Yang Mi chose to treat it coldly, while Jiang Mengjie chose to speak out bravely, these two completely different ways of dealing with it.
reflects the different attitudes of celebrities in the face of crises, Yang Mi's cold treatment seems to be a little negative at first glance, but after thinking about it, this may be the experience she has accumulated in the entertainment industry for many years.
Sometimes, excessive attention will give criminals an opportunity, Yang Mi chose to remain silent, perhaps because he wanted this matter to fade out of the public eye, but this way of dealing with it also has its drawbacks.
It could be misconstrued as weakness, and it could even encourage more clandestine photography, after all, if the victim doesn't speak up, those with bad intentions will think they can get away with it, and Jiang Mengjie's approach is more proactive.
Not only did she bravely come forward to expose her experience of being photographed and blackmailed, but she also encouraged other victims to speak out, which is undoubtedly more deterrent and conducive to raising public attention to the issue.
Jiang Mengjie's words are resounding: "It's not our fault that we were secretly photographed, what really should be spurned are those who maliciously secretly photographed" This remark not only speaks for the victim, but also clearly points out the essence of the problem.
Her courage and wisdom are worth learning from each of us, but we must also understand that not everyone has the courage to stand up publicly like Jiang Mengjie, and everyone has their own considerations and difficulties, no matter which way they choose.
The most important thing is to protect yourself and not give criminals a chance, and at the same time, we must also see that what happened to celebrities is just a microcosm of this problem, and in real life, there are more ordinary people facing similar problems.
For example, candid photography incidents on campus are not uncommon, which reminds us that protecting privacy and respecting others is not only a matter for celebrities, but also something that everyone should pay attention to.
The key is to make the most beneficial choice according to the specific situation, and what we should do as a public is to jointly create a social environment that respects privacy and protects the weak.
The unspoken rules of the entertainment industry: from candid photography to deeper problems
Speaking of candid photography, I have to mention the more hidden and dangerous unspoken rules in the entertainment industry, these unspoken rules are often more disturbing and difficult to eradicate than candid photography.
In an interview, Yang Mi did not shy away from talking about the existence of unspoken rules. She said frankly: "It's too normal to sleep with the director, as long as you go to sleep with the director, you can get this opportunity" Although the words are shockingly straightforward.
But it said the voices of many new artists, Yang Mi herself has faced such a dilemma, when she first entered the industry, a director invited her to "discuss the script" alone late at night, fortunately, she followed the advice of her agent.
She rejected this invitation with obvious bad intentions, and although she lost a role because of it, she retained her dignity and principles, and this attitude of rejecting unspoken rules deserves our respect.
Yang Mi said: "I'd rather be slow than be unspoken rules, so that I can live a solid life and be able to face everyone openly" This remark expresses the true meaning of success: real success is not only the success of your career, but also the success of your personality.
However, we must also see that not everyone has the courage and conditions to adhere to principles like Yang Mi, and under the temptation of power and interests, many people may choose to compromise, which is not only a personal sorrow, but also the sorrow of the entire industry.
What's even more worrying is that this unspoken rule culture is spreading to other industries, from workplace sexual harassment to power rent-seeking, similar issues are reflected in all walks of life, reminding us that opposing unspoken rules is not just a matter for the entertainment industry.
It's something that society as a whole should be concerned about, so how do we deal with these unspoken rules? We need better legal protections. We need more people like Yang Mi who dare to say "no".
Only when more people have the courage to refuse, the unspoken rules will lose the soil for survival, and we must also understand that changing the bad habits of an industry is not an overnight thing, it requires everyone's efforts and the awakening of the whole society.
We want to praise those who dare to stand up for their principles, but also to provide help and support to those who are forced to compromise, from candid photography to unspoken rules, the existence of these problems reflects the existence of many unhealthy factors in our society.
Only if each of us can uphold our principles and speak out can we gradually change this situation and create a fairer and healthier social environment.
From celebrities to ordinary people: the social impact of the candid problem
The candid photography incident is not only a problem for celebrities, it has become a widespread social problem, from the campus to the workplace, from public places to private spaces, clandestine photography is ubiquitous, affecting the life of every ordinary person.
The incident of a college girl being secretly photographed under her skirt on the way back to the dormitory has attracted widespread attention, and what is even more infuriating is that the school's way of dealing with it is to lightly punish the person who took the photo, and in turn blame the girl for wearing less.
This "victim guilt" way of thinking is undoubtedly a secondary injury to the victim, and this case exposes many shortcomings in our society's handling of such problems, and many people have not yet realized the seriousness of clandestine photography.
The relevant laws and regulations are not perfect enough to form an effective deterrent to clandestine photographers, and the protection and support of society for victims is far from enough.
We need to raise our awareness of self-protection, be more careful in public places, and have the courage to stand up and defend our rights if we are unfortunate enough to become a victim, and not choose to remain silent because of fear or shame.
As bystanders, we should speak up for the victims, not just sit on the sidelines or fall into the trap, and we also need to recognize that social media platforms play an important role in this issue, and some platforms have begun to tighten control and delete clandestine content.
This is a positive sign, but more needs to be done, platforms should establish stricter moderation mechanisms, impose severe penalties on accounts that spread clandestine content, and we need more legal protections.
At present, many places have begun to legislate to prohibit clandestine photography, which is a good start, and the implementation of the law needs to be further strengthened.
We should also note that behind the problem of clandestine photography is a deeper social problem: the neglect of women's rights and interests and the disregard for privacy, and only by fundamentally changing this concept can the problem of clandestine photography be truly solved.
Everyone deserves the right not to be violated, whether celebrities or ordinary people, let's work together to create a safer social environment that respects the privacy of individuals.
epilogue
From the incident of Yang Mi being secretly photographed under her skirt, to Jiang Mengjie's brave voice, and then to the similar troubles encountered by ordinary people, we have seen the universality and seriousness of the problem of candid photography, which is not only an invasion of personal privacy, but also a challenge to the moral bottom line of the entire society.
In the face of such a problem, each of us cannot stay out of the matter, whether it is a celebrity or an ordinary person, we should have the courage to protect our own rights and interests, and at the same time respect the privacy of others.
Only by working together can we create a safer and more civilized environment, and let us work together to create a better society where everyone can live freely without clandestine photography.
