Chapter 719: Explosive Acting, Aiming for Double Best Actress Awards!
Xu Jiayang was also shocked by the box office numbers, an educational film with 150 million in ticket sales, how is that possible!
Xia Weibao was even more dumbfounded. Last night, when they left the movie theater, not a single person had discussed the plot. How could there possibly be 150 million in box office sales!
Only Han Luoqi was narcissistic enough to flip his hair arrogantly, "When the young master takes action, how could I possibly lose to Meng Zhaocheng? Even just showing my face could totally crush him into bits, okay?"
Everyone, "..."
Narcissism is a disease, it needs to be cured!
Plus, in "Despair" you played a little hoodlum, chased to the point of having to hide in a latrine during an escape. Are you sure it’s your face you’re "refreshing" and not something else?
No matter what, such an achievement deserved celebration, so everyone quickly opened up web pages to check on the reactions.
——After watching "Despair" last night, I couldn’t get out of the plot the entire night. The film was oppressive throughout, permeated with an air of despair.
——Yes, I almost cried after watching it. It was too tragic.
——Xiao Mei is actually very strong; the shadows left by her family filled her with despair. Being wanted for murder was despairing, being sold to an underground bar, kept by someone, the escape, all reeked of oppressive despair. In fact, she longed for the light, but reality was just too cruel, slowly forcing her into a dead end.
——I think the most despairing part was the ending. Both of them had already called the police, but the people from the underworld and the underground bar found them first. The two held each other, weeping over the unfairness of fate, made a suicide pact to be together in the next life, and then committed suicide. It was so moving that my tears wouldn’t stop flowing.
——At the end, when they committed suicide, Sun Jian’s hands were both ruined. He asked Xiao Mei to shoot him first and then kill herself. With tears, Xiao Mei shot Sun Jian dead, only to find that there were no bullets left, and just at that moment, the police arrived. She was saved but had killed her lover with her own hands. That was true despair.
——Exactly, only a second’s difference. If she had been just a second slower, Sun Jian wouldn’t have died. It’s too heartbreaking, too tragic, too oppressive, ahh!
——Worthy of being an educational film, defying the heavens! Not to mention the acting prowess of Xia Weibao and Han Luoqi, just the lesson the movie wanted to convey left me silent the entire night...
——Same here. I was planning to divorce my husband, but after seeing the damage divorce did to children in the movie, I decided not to divorce after all. Even just for the children’s sake, we should strive to carry on well.
——Exactly, the family environment is so important for children. After watching "Despair," I didn’t dare to argue with my husband in front of our child anymore, for fear of casting a shadow on them.
——Yes, the significance of this movie is really great. I recommend all parents to watch it and seriously reflect on what roles parents should play in their children’s lives.
——I finally get what real Best Actor and Best Actress talent is, Han Luoqi and Xia Weibao’s acting was explosive!
——Right, watching the Best Actor and Best Actress go all out in their performances was so satisfying!
——As for Xia Weibao, I’m totally convinced. She’s truly worthy of the title of Best Actress! Whoever dares to say her title was bought with money should watch "Despair" before they talk.
——Her acting was on point the whole time, I felt so much pity for this unfortunate yet strong girl, especially in the end when she killed her own lover but couldn’t follow him as the police caught her, the feeling of collapse and despair was enough to shatter this older lady’s heart...
——In comparison, "Republic of China Graceful Hero" is just weak...
Seeing the heated discussions online, Xia Weibao felt it was both unexpected and reasonable.
On the other hand, over at "Republic of China Graceful Hero," everyone was so annoyed their faces turned green...
