While Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing were doing it, Lai Wenhui returned home after watching a movie with his girlfriend in an ordinary district in Beijing.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw his father, Lai Changping, sitting on the sofa with a gloomy expression.
"Dad, who provoked you this time? Tell me and I'll teach him a lesson for you. "Lai Wenhui took off his coat.
Lai Changping snorted and said, "Who else can it be other than you? How long have you been dating Lili? Why aren't you getting married yet? Let me tell you, I'll beat you to death if you're not dating her with the intention of getting married. "
Lai Wenhui smiled and said, "Dad, we've just discussed it. We'll get married in two months."
Lai Changping was stunned and said, "Really?"
"Of course."
Lai Wenhui thought inwardly, You're going to be a grandfather soon. How can I not hurry up and do what I have to do?
Lai Changping nodded and said, "That's not bad. What did you do tonight? "
Lai Wenhui smiled and said, "I went to watch a movie with Lili."
Lai Changping was shocked and asked, "What movie?"
Lai Wenhui chuckled and said, "Dad, you're not qualified to be a five-star film critic. Of course, it's Yun Huang's Tang Bohu Dotting Autumn Fragrance."
Lai Changping slightly narrowed his eyes and asked, "What do you think of this movie?"
Lai Wenhui said, "I'm just joking. How can my idol's movie be bad? Lili and I laughed from the beginning to the end and I almost threw up. Wait a minute, I'll go to the movie website and give this movie 9.5 points. Showing this kind of comedy during the New Year, Cloud Emperor is really good at stirring up trouble. "
Lai Changping couldn't help but frown when he heard his son's evaluation of the movie. He said, "You all think so?"
Lai Wenhui replied, "Of course. Lili and I have already discussed it. We'll watch it again tomorrow. Dad, I advise you to watch it too. It's the New Year, don't be so serious all day. As the saying goes, a smile makes you ten years younger. "
With that said, Lai Wenhui entered his bedroom.
In less than five minutes, he ran out and looked at Lai Changping with a dumbfounded expression as he exclaimed, "Dad, did you make a mistake? Yun Huang's movie is so good, yet you gave it a zero and even called it trash. Is your level of appreciation different from normal people? "
Lai Changping snorted and said, "Your so-called funny point, I really don't see it. In my eyes, this movie is just a piece of garbage put together with exaggerated acting skills, a spoof plot, and funny dialogue. "
Lai Wenhui said indignantly, "How can a comedy film make people laugh if it's not funny? You film critics are using the eyes of a literary film to look at a commercial comedy. Of course, there will be problems. But if you stand in the shoes of an audience, it will definitely be different. Dad, movies are made for movie fans, not for movie critics. If you want to objectively evaluate a movie, you should let go of your prejudices and experience its charm from the perspective of an audience. What is the standard to measure a comedy film? It wasn't about the artistry, but whether or not the audience laughed. The louder the laughter, the more successful the comedy film is. "
Lai Changping was stunned for a moment. Obviously, he didn't expect Lai Wenhui to say such a thing. He said, "What do you know about movies? Don't talk about your fallacies here. Go to sleep. "
Lai Wenhui said helplessly, "Dad, you're really a stubborn old man. But just wait and see. Even if you give this movie a zero, its box office will still soar. Those so-called blockbusters will be unable to withstand a single blow in front of 'Tang Bohu'. At that time, don't be slapped in the face by the movie fans. "
After Lai Wenhui said that, he went into his bedroom.
Lai Changping sat alone on the sofa and seemed to be lost in thought.
It wasn't that he didn't listen to his son's words, but he didn't want to lose his dignity as a father in front of him.
In fact, even he had to admit that what his son said was very reasonable.
The standard of a comedy film is the audience's laughter, and this comment didn't seem wrong.
Is it really appropriate to use the eyes of a literary film to evaluate a comedy film?
Is there a problem with our perspective?
Lai Wenhui thought of the laughter of the movie fans in the theater and suddenly felt that his starting point was completely wrong.
He took out a laptop and logged on to the movie website. The bright red average score of 9.08 was immediately reflected in his eyes.
"How can it be so high? Is this a score that a trash film should have? Even those blockbusters can't reach this score. "
For the first time, Lai Changping felt that he seemed to be very far from the audience's vision.
The next day, the box office of 'Tang Bohu' was released. It took in 117 million yuan in four shows, and the attendance rate was 99%. One must know that the ticket price was only 18 yuan.
All the industry insiders were dumbfounded.
Those companies that didn't care about Xiao Yunhai's comedy looked at the report and found it hard to believe.
"How is this possible? This is too legendary. "
"Even the attendance rate for the one in the morning was 100%. Is this a result that a trash film can achieve?"
In Huaxia's one-day box office rankings, "Tang Bo Hu Diao Qiu Xiang" directly dropped to the fifth place. What was even more frightening was that on the major movie forums on the Internet, almost all the fans were recommending this movie.
"What is the funniest period comedy film? Please refer to 'Tang Bohu'. "
"I hate Yun Huang to death. His' Tang Bohu 'made a fool of me. I laughed so hard that I threw up my lunch. It was so embarrassing. "
"The experts on the movie website only gave it a score of 1. Am I seeing things? How can such a good film only get a score of 1? "
"Back then, 'Charlotte's Troubles' was given a score of 2 by the film critics. Now, they gave 'Tang Bohu' another score. But these two comedies are my favorite. I really don't know if I should still believe them in the future. Our views on a certain matter are a little too different. "
"'Tang Bohu' on the movie website is trash. When I saw the comments of the film critics, I was drunk. Fortunately, I went to watch it. Otherwise, I would have been led into a ditch by them. "
"Brothers and sisters, please don't believe the words of the film critics. I strongly recommend 'Tang Bohu'. If you don't watch it, it will be a huge loss for you. "
The views of the film fans and the film critics had a 180-degree flip.
Back then, Xiao Yunhai's' Charlotte's Troubles' also had such a problem. However, at that time, his words were insignificant and did not attract the attention of the media.
Now, Xiao Yunhai's identity and status in Hua Xia's entertainment industry was second to none. His film once again had such a contrast, which immediately set off a big discussion in the industry.
Why would film critics and film fans have such opposite opinions about the same film? It became the topic of discussion among netizens.
"Tang Bohu's Troubles" also took advantage of this. Almost every theater was full. Many of them were families with children. Some even watched it three or four times and still couldn't stop laughing.
The reason why a classic could become a classic was that every time you watched it, it would be like watching it for the first time. Even if you knew the plot, you could still feel its charm.
