Didn't you say that we would lose money after filming?

Chapter 240 A bad movie? You didn’t understand! (5)

"The film as a whole is not completely bad. After all, Xia Yuan's level is still there, and the arrangement of the pictures and the language of the shots are still worthy of praise. There is nothing wrong with that.

Then there are the actors' performances. Xia Yuan's acting skills are still online. After all, he is the only director in the entire domestic entertainment industry who can win the Best Actor award. However, Xia Yuan is not the best actor in this film.

What really amazed me was the actress who played the role of Fairy Zixia. Every look and every expression was natural. The way she looked at Zhizunbao was pure, as if she was really looking at the person she loved the most. The tears she shed did not seem fake. The real stroke of genius was Fairy Zixia. Apart from that, the soundtrack was the only advantage. Apart from these advantages, the rest were all disadvantages. It was as bad as it could be, especially the plot and the script arrangement. It was simply a hearty red stone!"

"The first movie I bought was "The Monkey King: Marry Me", and really, for more than an hour I had no idea what I was watching. I felt like I had seen everything, but also felt like I hadn't seen anything. I was really confused, you know? From beginning to end it was just a weird female character, who had a love affair with the weird Monkey King, and then there was a knife thrown at the end. The Monkey King married a lonely woman, didn't marry anyone, and the bride died, and then the Monkey King went back to get the scriptures. You might as well change the name of the movie to "The Monkey King: Journey to the West"."

"Rubbish. Really rubbish."

"It's okay if you want to shoot it this way. It's okay if you want to shoot a comedy. It's okay to have a love story, but you absolutely shouldn't. Why do you have to make a fuss about Journey to the West? Can this be made into a comedy? Even if you make it into a comedy, it's okay, but you still have to stuff a love story in it? Let the Monkey King and the White Bone Demon fall in love? Xia Yuan, do you want to take a look at what you are doing? Is this really appropriate? Who is the White Bone Demon? It's one of the few monsters that can be killed by Sun Wukong! It's really evil! In your case, it's because you can't get the love you want and you committed suicide?"

For a time, it caused a sensation and was even quickly ranked first on the hot search list.

The tag #“A Chinese Odyssey” is a terrible movie# is clearly displayed and has already caused a lot of controversy.

Coupled with the Doujia ratings, a large number of negative reviews flooded in in an instant.

There are a total of twelve movies in the summer season, and the two "A Chinese Odyssey" movies ranked last and second to last in ratings.

"A Chinese Odyssey Part Two: Pandora's Box" is rated 4.5 points!
"A Chinese Odyssey Part Two: Cinderella" is rated 4.2 points!
There is no doubt that this is a huge blow to Xia Yuan, whose works have been widely praised.

Xia Yuan has always been famous for the high quality of his works, and his fans have always said that as long as it is Xia Yuan's movie, they can rush to watch it without thinking and they will not be disappointed.

This is also Xia Yuan's first work after he left the film market for a while and went to shoot TV series before returning to the film market.

In other words, the significance is very important, announcing to the audience of Hanxia Film Circle that the arrogant Emperor Xia of Hanxia Film Circle is back again.

Moreover, with Xia Yuan's level, there will be absolutely no problems if he can keep it stable, and his reputation is there.

But the problem is that Xia Yuan still gave them a big one.

This really frightened them and made them numb.

However, compared to these dissatisfied fans who are criticizing the film, there are still a large number of people who express their opinions.

"No, I think it's okay. It's not that serious. Why can't Xia Yuan shoot some simple comedies? Just because he is Xia Yuan, does he have to shoot some works with profound core and meaning? If not, then it's not allowed! Don't you think this requirement is a bit harsh?"

"Is it harsh? He's Xia Yuan! He made a movie like Let the Bullets Fly. Do you think it's appropriate for him to make something like Pulp Comedy?"

"What's inappropriate about this? I want to ask you something. Are there only one type of movies? Aren't they meant to entertain the audience? You can allow high-end movies to exist, and you can allow some difficult and incomprehensible movies to exist, but why can't you allow some simple and happy movies to exist? Isn't this kidnapping a person? And everyone knows Xia Yuan, right? He doesn't really care about how others evaluate him, right? Does he care about his so-called 'godhood'?"

“Anyway, I think it’s fun to watch.”

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it, especially the second one, which just really impressed me.”

"Even if nothing else, Xia Yuan's two films are better than most of the works of other directors in the current film industry, right? Just because they didn't meet your expectations, he gave them a score of 4.2? And other films that are not as good as his, and are truly bad films, you give them a score of 6? Are you so hypocritical?"

"It seems that Xia Yuan's fans still need to be purified, or the fans who were purified some time ago are back again."

"Some of these so-called fans, Xia Yuan really doesn't need you. Your existence will really harm Xia Yuan. This is such extreme double standards."

"Actually, it shouldn't be related to the fans who were promoted a while ago, because this is me, I don't dare to scold Xia Yuan now, because I'm afraid that if the situation is reversed at that time?"

"Does that mean there are still experts?"

"Family members, calm down. Think about it carefully. This is Xia Yuan! When has he never had a few twists and turns? So many lessons have been given to you, but you still haven't learned them? Are you still choosing sides? Don't let him turn around again and make you look bad again."

"When Let the Bullets Fly was first released, a lot of people didn't understand it, and the whole internet cursed it as a bad movie. What happened? Did your face hurt afterwards?" "No. Xia Yuan still has fans like this? There are fans who curse him directly?"

"Don't jump to conclusions too soon. When I watched it, I always felt that something was wrong. I always felt that Xia Yuan wanted to express something. It's a pity that I am not well-educated and didn't understand it."

Suddenly, there was an uproar on the Internet, everyone expressed their opinions and divided into several camps.

Some people think that "A Chinese Odyssey" is a purely bad movie.

Some of them bought the wrong order and watched "The Monkey King: Cinderella" first. They didn't even think about continuing to watch "Monkey King: Reborn".

Yes, they bought the movies in the right order. Some of these people took a calm view of the movie, some said the movie was good, and some liked it.

After all, it's hard to satisfy everyone. Some people like it and some people hate it.

However, this is the first time that Xia Yuan's work has caused such huge controversy.

From a long time ago, Xia Yuan's works have been focusing on the theme of equality for all beings, and have received unanimous positive reviews.

Other directors can easily make controversial movies, but Xia Yuan has never done that.

After all, controversy, to a certain extent, means low quality.

At this moment, Tang Ying was also looking at the comments on the Internet and laughing so hard that she was numb.

"Good scolding!" She slapped her thigh.

This is the effect you want!

The de-digitalization strategy that she and Xia Yuan had agreed upon worked!
Controversy means poor quality.

They made the right bet!
Xia Yuan was also very happy because he could make money this time too!
As for the controversial things about the movie.

He was not panicked at all.

Because if a movie is really good, there will be controversy for a while, but it will definitely not exist forever.

As time goes by, the audience will definitely be able to see it.

But by then they had already been taken off the screen.

Again, he didn't intentionally turn a good script into shit.

As for the poor results, that is none of his business. It is simply because the market is not buying it.

And Tang Ying also knew that the champagne was opened correctly this time!
But there was still one thing that puzzled her.

"Do I have acting skills?" Tang Ying looked at some of the comments, a little confused.

Many people who watched the movie criticized the plot and the script.

But no one has ever scolded the actors.

Many people even praised her, and specifically singled her out for her good acting?
At the same time, Ami, who had just arrived in Xinhai, clenched his hands as he looked at the message on his mobile phone.

"Bad movie? What's bad about it? That's because you didn't understand it!! This is a great movie!! A great movie that truly explains the true core of Journey to the West!! Where is the Journey to the West? It's all a Buddhist conspiracy from the beginning to the end, promoting Buddhism and suppressing Taoism! The real Monkey King was already dead the moment he put on the golden hoop! He is still the same Xia Yuan, he has never changed!"
