Chapter 474 This Is Not a Movie, This Is Reality
After the premiere, many film critics present rushed to publish their reviews.
Most of them were praising, which is why film critics are not very popular with fans.
Of course, there are also some film critics with their own characteristics who express their own unique views.
But no matter how much or how little other film critics write, good or bad, they can't compare to Zhou Baoliang's joke.
Many Liangzhou people were silenced after seeing Zhou Baoliang's words.
Tianyu also discovered this possible hot spot, and then suddenly had an idea and directly bought another hot search resource to push [Tell a joke] to the hot search.
Facts have proved that some people in Tianyu's operation department still have vision. As soon as the hot search appeared at the end, it attracted the attention of many people, and even rose faster than another topic [I am not the God of Medicine Premiere].
Under this topic, Liangzhou netizens also discussed it a lot.
…
“Liangzhou is a province with a rich heritage of ancient medicine, and its medical conditions are not inferior to those of Zhongzhou. Why can’t I laugh after reading Zhou Baoliang’s joke?”
“I can’t laugh because the joke is not funny.”
“I can’t laugh because the joke touched my heart.”
Netizens who felt the same way expressed their feelings one after another.
"I remember when I was a kid, it wasn't like this. When I was sick, I could buy medicine with good efficacy for very little money. But I don't know since when, those good medicines began to disappear, and countless new medicines appeared, with higher prices and worse efficacy!"
"Hehe, at least they won't kill me, right? I went to the pharmacy to buy medicine, and only said that I had a sore throat, and the salesperson took out three kinds of medicine for me, adding up to 250 Daxia coins!
Wow, I saw two boxes of throat lozenges, a bottle of syrup, and a can of vitamins. If they can't kill me, they will give me as much as I can!"
"What's that? I went to buy Liuwei Dihuang Pills, and they started at three bottles, and asked me if I wanted Twelve Wei Dihuang Pills!"
"Oh? So everyone thinks the new pharmacy is a scam? I thought it was because I was poor."
"..."
There were a lot of discussions under the topic, but few people refuted Zhou Baoliang's joke.
Even those who earn a lot are the same.
It seems that no matter what level of people are, there are new medicines suitable for their consumption, which can be said to be covered without dead ends!
Someone joked: "This is the first time I feel the existence of fairness."
Jokes are jokes, and complaints are complaints.
But just like seeing orange cats and tabby cats fighting on the roadside on weekdays, people enjoy watching them and discuss that orange cats are not good and are not as fierce as tabby cats.
After the fight, the orange cats and tabby cats left, and they still did what they should do.
The netizens who complained at this time had the same idea. Could it be that the price of medicine will be reduced because of their complaints?
Haha.
But many people are still interested in the movie that caused Zhou Baoliang to tell this joke.
But even if you want to watch it, you can only wait until tomorrow.
Today is just the premiere.
Even those film critics did not dare to spoil the first draft, but just talked about their own viewing experience.
What Liangzhou netizens don’t know is that the movie "Dying to Survive" is not only premiered in Liangzhou.
Qing, Yang, Yong, and Jing also premiered on the same day, but Sun Wen and others did not attend the premiere there.
Even Fusang, Yanzhou, and Hanzhou, Tianyu is also communicating, hoping to release at the same time.
Among them, Qincheng Pictures is also using its connections to follow the review procedures of those states.
But after all, it has not been merged yet, and many things are not so convenient.
If it is really approved, it will probably be delayed for a few days.
But for Chen Shuren, all of these are acceptable.
What he wants is influence, as long as it can be released.
If it can be released, people who have seen the movie will have empathy, otherwise no matter how much you say it is, no matter how good it is for everyone, it may not be effective.
Time went by in the blink of an eye and it was the next day.
The first screening of "Dying to Survive" was packed in the cinemas in Qing, Yang, Yong, and Jing.
At this point in November, there are no movies that can be played.
In this way, how could a movie directed by Sun Wen, written by Chen Shuren, recommended by Gao Nanhua and Zhang Guofeng, and vigorously promoted by Tianyu be missed?
Not to mention, it was Saturday, a day of rest.
Many people entered the theater with popcorn, carbonated drinks and milk tea.
…
“Tsk, recommended by Director Gao and Director Zhang, written and composed by Brother Shu, Sun Wen is awesome.”
Sitting in the best viewing area, Li Zichen said to the pale, weak and quiet girl next to him while eating popcorn.
Today, Li Zichen finally asked his childhood sweetheart Meng Mengxi to come out, so he was very active.
Of course, the purpose was not to come out, but to let Meng Mengxi relax and relieve her emotions.
A month ago, Meng Mengxi's father passed away.
Died of... suicide.
Every time he thought of this, Li Zichen's heart would twitch, not to mention Meng Mengxi, the person involved.
Meng Mengxi's father was diagnosed with cancer last year. At first, although the family was uncomfortable, they all survived and began to face it positively.
But as time went by, Meng Mengxi's father became thinner and thinner, and he spent more and more time in the ward. As the medical expenses increased, their family had fewer smiles.
Originally, a wealthy family with millions of savings spent most of their savings in just half a year.
If it was effective, there would be hope, but the key is that after spending so much money, the condition did not improve at all.
Taking expensive medicine every day and undergoing operations that ordinary people cannot afford, it only delayed the time of death.
Anyone would suffer.
But Meng Mengxi's family was just numb and did not give up treatment.
Just when Meng Mengxi's grandparents were preparing to sell the property, Meng Mengxi's father jumped from the roof of the hospital.
He ended his painful life and cut off the glimmer of hope that Meng Mengxi's family was guarding.
Later, the hospital compensated Meng Mengxi's family with 500,000 Daxia coins because it did not lock the door of the rooftop.
And Meng Mengxi entered self-isolation.
Li Zichen has been trying to make Meng Mengxi happy for the past month.
But all failed.
It was not until he accidentally mentioned to Meng Mengxi that the movie directed by Sun Wen and written by Chen Shuren was about to be released that Meng Mengxi reacted.
After remembering that Meng Mengxi used to like Chen Shuren's songs the most, Li Zichen told Meng Mengxi that the ending song of this movie had Shu Ge's new song. If you don't watch the movie, it will probably take ten days or half a month to listen to it.
Then, in Li Zichen's disbelief, Meng Mengxi said that he would go to the movie.
This not only made Li Zichen happy, but Meng Mengxi's family also cried with joy after Meng Mengxi left home.
Having lost a loved one, Meng Mengxi's family was also in pain.
But no matter how painful it was, they had to hide it first.
Because they could no longer bear the blow of losing another loved one.
"It premiered yesterday. Many people who attended the premiere said that this movie is very good. Brother Shu's song is also very nice. It seems that this is another movie with a box office of 1 billion."
"It can reach 1 billion in November, which is equivalent to 2 billion during the Chinese New Year. Sun Wen is taking off on the spot!"
"It's Brother Shu. He doesn't write songs properly, but always makes some messes."
"I really miss the days when he released ten songs a month! Right, Xiaoxi?"
Li Zichen said a lot of things, but when he looked at Meng Mengxi, he found that the other party's eyes seemed to be empty.
Sighing in his heart, Li Zichen said nothing more.
It's good to be able to come out.
He just hopes that Brother Shu's song can really make Meng Mengxi return to the sunny and cheerful look of the past.
The movie started and the lights dimmed.
The conversation in the theater gradually faded.
As the movie gradually unfolded, everyone else was immersed in it, but Li Zichen was a little numb.
"How the hell is this a movie about cancer!"
Li Zichen only wanted Meng Mengxi to listen to Chen Shuren's songs, so he didn't carefully distinguish the information that was sporadically revealed on the Internet.
Even Tianyu's publicity used the word "redemption".
Li Zichen turned his head and glanced at Meng Mengxi.
Sure enough, Meng Mengxi, who was originally empty, had a change of expression and had already entered the plot of the movie.
Li Zichen thought about it and felt that it would be better not to watch this kind of movie.
He didn't believe that this would be a happy ending.
By then, Meng Mengxi would be brought back to his previous state. No matter what Meng Mengxi's family said, he himself would not forgive himself.
"Xiaoxi, I don't want to watch it anymore. Let's go back?"
Li Zichen's voice did not get a response, just as Meng Mengxi had kept silent for the past month.
"Xiaoxi, my stomach hurts, I have to go to the hospital."
"Xiaoxi, I'm going to faint..."
No matter what excuses Li Zichen had, Meng Mengxi did not respond to him at all.
Seeing this, Li Zichen was ruthless. Just when he was about to do the craziest thing in his life and stop the movie from being shown, Meng Mengxi spoke without looking back.
"You go back first, I can do it by myself."
Li Zichen was stunned at first, and wanted to say something, but suddenly stopped.
Xiaoxi, is she concerned about him?
If not, Meng Mengxi could ignore him.
Li Zichen turned his head and looked at the movie screen.
"Is it because of this movie?"
Puzzled, Li Zichen sat back slowly.
Since Meng Mengxi's situation did not develop in a bad direction, he thought it would not be too late to wait.
As long as there was any sign of something wrong, he could make a scene in the cinema at any time!
With this idea, Li Zichen also began to watch the movie seriously.
At the beginning, he would care about Meng Mengxi from time to time, but as he watched, the frequency of turning his head became less and less.
When it came to the end of the movie, Li Zichen's eyes were a little sore.
When he was about to rub his eyes, he remembered Meng Mengxi next to him.
"It's broken!"
Li Zichen turned his head, but saw the emotionally stable Meng Mengxi.
He was confused.
"I cried so sadly, why didn't Xiaoxi react?"
Just then, the ending song finally started playing.
As he listened to the song and watched the ending of the movie, Li Zichen couldn't help but get wet.
...
Maybe we will go far away one day, or maybe we will meet again
Whether in the crowd or in the sky
Let me see your face clearly again
Let the tears fill my eyes, even though I am speechless and crying
I don't want the halo of God, I just want your ordinariness
This heart has no regrets in this life, the fire of life has been ignited
…
Meng Mengxi finally cried, but more of it was relief.
She reached out and took out the note that her father had placed on the table before he jumped off the building.
Because of the surgery and the worsening of his illness, her father's hands could no longer hold a pen.
But he still wrote such a note, and the words on it were distorted and blurred, and could not be recognized at all.
Meng Mengxi once wanted to analyze what the words on this note were, but failed.
But at this time, Meng Mengxi's vision blurred by tears understood the words on it.
"Don't be sad, I want you to be strong."
Meng Mengxi also understood that what she understood was not the words, but her father's heart.
When she encountered difficulties, this note... could be any words.
…
After the first show of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" ended, many people waiting in line in the theater were stunned when they saw people with red eyes walking out of the theater.
Some people seemed to understand something, left the line, and bought a pack of paper.
After the first group of people left the theater, several topics related to "Dying to Survive" were directly searched.
The popularity of the topic will see a leap in growth after each movie.
Until the afternoon, three topics have appeared in the top ten hot searches.
[Dying to Survive]
[Just Be Ordinary]
[Did You Cry Today]
Below the topics, there are countless netizens who expressed their depressed mood after watching the movie.
"Who told me that Sun Wen was a comedy director? That's fucking irrelevant!"
"I just want to know how many people cried?"
"Who wouldn't cry? Brother Shu's song, coupled with the ending of this movie, made me cry so hard."
"Hey, I took the girl I was dating for the first time to see a movie, and after the movie, I cried so hard that her clothes were soaked..."
"The upstairs is so miserable."
"It's not miserable, but it's a bit embarrassing. But the girl hugged my arm all day to comfort me."
"Damn!"
The Internet is full of complaints about "Dying to Survive" and Chen Shuren's song "As Long as It's Ordinary".
If someone asks these people, is the movie good? Is the song good?
They will all say "good, good".
But if you ask them in a different way, is this movie recommended?
The comments you get are mostly the same as Zhou Baoliang's: "Not recommended!"
The movie is still going on, and the number of viewers is also increasing.
Some topics are still mentioned after all.
"After watching the movie, I felt very depressed. Although the scene of everyone sending off the God of Medicine was very touching and was a perfect ending of a different kind, I couldn't be happy.
I thought about it for a long time and finally found the answer to why I couldn't be happy.
Because, this is not a movie, it's reality!"
