Entertainment from Divorce

United Kingdom.

There was a crowd of people outside a cinema, and it was very lively.

Leonard, who had just walked out of the cinema, was walking on the road, still recalling the "Kung Fu Panda" he had just watched.

He was a fan of Tan Yue, so when he arrived at the cinema he went straight to "Kung Fu Panda" and didn't care about the promotion of "The Pearl Princess" at all.

And "Kung Fu Panda" did not disappoint him. The one and a half hour movie was quite enjoyable.

Especially the beautiful scenery in the movie made him want to fly to China.

And it's not just the scenery, but also the special flavor shown in "Kung Fu Panda" that deeply attracted Leonard.

Leonard did not go home, but walked into a roadside cafe, ordered a cup of coffee, and savored it carefully.

The cultural heritage displayed in the details of "Kung Fu Panda" gave Leonard an indescribable feeling.

Especially the unique artistic conception and the core displayed by Master Oogway. Although the culture is different, he also feels it.

Although he is British, he can understand some of the meaning behind it.

It is precisely these connotations that make Leonard feel that "Kung Fu Panda" is extremely excellent and is definitely not just an ordinary animated film.

Leonard was excited and took out his mobile phone to recommend it to his friends and relatives.

"Guys, this Kung Fu Panda is an absolute masterpiece of animation. You will miss out if you don't see it!"

Before Leonard turned off his phone, there was already a reply in the group.

"You actually went to see Kung Fu Panda, it's such a great movie, I've never seen such a good movie!"

"Yes, the pandas in it are so cute. Does anyone know where I can see pandas?"

"Now I just want to travel to those so-called real-life filming locations. I don't know if I'll have the opportunity to do so!"

Looking at the discussion in the group, Leonard's heart was slightly moved, and he couldn't help but speak up at this time.

"Don't you think the spiritual core of the movie is cool? The death of Master Turtle and the realization of emptiness that Po has gained are things that can be deeply understood!"

Leonard shared this in the hope of finding companions.

But unfortunately, not everyone who watches the movie will think so much.

"Leonard, what are you talking about, this is a great comedy movie."

“No, this is a scenic tourism promotional film!”

"It's obviously an animal promotional video, I want to get a panda doll right now!"

Looking at the comments in the group, Leonard could not hide the disappointment on his face.

Seeing that people in the group couldn't understand him, he began to express his opinions online, hoping to find like-minded people.

……

France.

In front of a movie theater.

A father and son got together and stood at the entrance of the cinema, watching the two movies advertised on the screen.

Son Heller turned and looked at his father Bernie.

"How about we make another bet?" Heller suggested.

The last time "Hachiko: A Dog's Story" and "Pan Jixing 2" were released, he made a bet with his father about which movie would have a higher box office.

He won completely that time, and thus gained the freedom to play games and enjoy various entertainments at home without his father interfering.

However, the time set last time was too short, which made Heller a little dissatisfied, so he brought up the idea of ​​betting again.

Bernie heard his son's words and asked, "Is it still the same bet?"

Heller nodded and said, "Of course, I haven't had enough fun yet!"

Bernie smiled as he heard his son's words: "Sure, then I bet Kung Fu Panda will have a higher box office!"

When Heller heard Bernie's words, he stopped dead in his tracks, and a look of astonishment flashed across his face.

"How...how can you support Kung Fu Panda?"

Heller originally wanted to repeat his last victory, but he didn't expect Bernie to support Tan Yue this time.

Bernie smiled happily, patted Heller on the shoulder, and spoke directly.

"Kid, this is a lesson I'm teaching you. Never think you've won. The last time you competed with Director Tan Yue, it was against a big director like Kelvin Butz, and he lost. How can you compete now?"

Heller was a little furious and shouted quickly: "You...you are too cunning!"

Bernie smiled again, patted his son on the shoulder, and said to him: "This is the adult world. It's time for you to grow up."

After Bernie finished speaking, he took Heller into the theater to watch Tan Yue's new movie.

With a look of disappointment on his face, Heller followed his father into the cinema.

However, as the movie began, the lost expression on Heller's face quickly disappeared.

He had been completely attracted by the movie and began to enjoy it.

……

Italy.

A cinema.

A group of people walked out of the cinema, all with excitement on their faces.

"This movie is so good. I never thought that an animated film could be so good!"

When a passerby heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "I want to ask which animated movie you are talking about?"

"Of course it's Kung Fu Panda. The pandas are so cute, and the scenery is beautiful... In short, this movie is excellent in all aspects!"

Someone else said, "Stop talking. I regret watching The Pearl Princess. The whole movie is full of so-called multiculturalism. I almost vomited when I saw the so-called black pearl."

"Did you actually go to see "The Pearl Princess"? " someone asked in surprise.

"Yes, this is a stupid decision. This movie not only makes me feel disgusted with Black Pearl, but also makes me unable to watch the original fairy tale. I really want to have a pair of eyes that have not seen "Pearl Princess"!"

"Oh, you're so pathetic."

The discussion among several people was very lively, and soon more people joined in.

"Hey, what are you talking about? I don't think this movie "Princess Pearl" is as bad as you say. On the contrary, I see the inclusiveness and diversity of the movie!"

The man was dressed in bright clothes, but he looked quite weird. Others could even see his Adam's apple.

"That's enough. I don't think we need to communicate at all." The passerby turned to look at the others, "Guys, let's talk about Kung Fu Panda again. It's such a good movie!"

"Yes, it is indeed a good movie!" others echoed.

When the maverick saw everyone's attitude, his face turned very ugly.

"You are a bunch of idiots, you don't understand the greatness of "Princess Pearl", it's a great movie!"

Others scoffed.

Around the world, the two films were released and the discussion became more and more heated.

……

After the premiere of "Kung Fu Panda" and "Pearl Princess", there have been many discussions about the two films on the Internet. Due to the publicity of Dixie Animation, the two films have also been compared.

Before the movie was released, everyone thought it would be a two-horse race.

But after the movie was over, I found that it was not the case at all.

Compared to the excellent plot and well-made "Kung Fu Panda", "The Pearl Princess" which is full of so-called multicultural content is like a piece of chocolate-flavored feces.

The fans are disgusted.

Everyone on Twitter started discussing it heatedly, and the reviews of the two movies were completely different.

A young college student watched "Kung Fu Panda" and expressed his opinion directly on Twitter.

"Kung Fu Panda is so good and surprising. I didn't expect that director Tan Yue could be so good at making animated films!"

Soon, someone commented on him.

"I agree, this movie is so great, it makes me want to learn Kung Fu!"

"That's right, Chinese Kung Fu is good, really good!"

In addition to these supportive comments, there were also some dissenting comments.

A user who uses a rainbow as his profile picture commented directly.

"I think it's OK. Kung Fu Panda is just an animated film. Although it's excellent, it can't compare with the classics of the past."

When seeing this comment, many people felt dissatisfied.

Someone immediately retorted:
"Isn't that the guy above a shill for Dixie Animation? Isn't Kung Fu Panda still good? If not Kung Fu Panda, what are we going to watch? Pearl Princess?"

"You watch The Pearl Princess? Anyway, I won't watch it. Only a fool would watch such a crappy movie. I will never forget that black pearl!"

"Who on earth is the person who can bear to watch Black Pearl?"

These ambivalent comments about "The Pearl Princess" received a lot of likes on Twitter, and it is obvious that everyone hates this movie.

The rainbow avatar was obviously annoyed by these comments and quickly commented below.

"You people would rather support a Chinese movie than an American movie. You are all sinners!"

After this comment appeared, it attracted a group of people to watch and comment.

"It's confirmed, this guy is the agent of Dixie Animation Company!"

"Yeah, the method of sowing discord is too low-level. I suspect that this guy has a black pearl in his head."

"Really, it hits the nail on the head."

"You are so mean. How can you bully a fool like this?"

On Twitter, many people are discussing these two movies.

A well-known person also commented after watching the movie.

"I highly recommend Kung Fu Panda. If you like animated movies, you should watch it! This movie is not only entertaining, but also profound. It is definitely a classic blockbuster. As for the other movie, The Pearl Princess, I can only say that if you have pica, you can go and enjoy it."

Soon after this comment appeared, many more comments appeared under his tweet.

There was a lot of abuse in the comments, accusing him of having no respect for American film studios.

But soon, these accusatory comments were drowned out by the numerous voices of approval.

United States.

Dixie Animation Productions.

The two movies were released almost simultaneously, and early morning in China is almost noon in the United States.

Therefore, when the movie was released, Dixie Animation's president Damian Dixie and the company's top executives were keeping a close eye on it.

After all, when a movie is first released, word of mouth is very important and is related to the subsequent publicity plan of the film.

It had only been a few hours since the premiere of "The Pearl Princess", but initial signs of it had already appeared on the Internet.

Although the film's statistics were all very good, its online reputation took a sharp turn for the worse after its release.

Seeing the change in public opinion, Damian Dixie immediately called the company's top executives for a meeting.

The atmosphere in the conference room was extremely solemn. No one spoke and everyone felt extremely depressed.

Damian Dixie's gaze went directly to director Harrison Pierce.

The president's gaze was filled with coldness, causing Harrison Pierce's hair to stand on end and cold sweat to begin to seep out of his forehead.

"Do you have any explanation for why this movie has such a good reputation?" Damian Dixie asked coldly.

Harrison Pierce trembled and began to stumble over his words.

"Boss, the movie has just been shown, and we haven't made any efforts yet. Maybe all of this is caused by that Tan Yue!"

Harrison Pierce racked his brains and came up with an explanation.

"And look, President, the statistics of our movie are all very good. The box office will definitely not be too bad!"

Hearing what Harrison Pierce said, everyone in the conference room couldn't help but frown.

Damian Dixie's eyebrows raised, his eyes as scary as a hawk.

"Do you think all this was done by Tan Yue? How can a Chinese like him have such great power?"

Harrison Pierce wiped the sweat from his head and continued to explain.

"Boss, Tan Yue may not have such great power, but they still have the DreamWorks behind them."

Damian Dixie fell into deep thought when he heard this.

DreamWorks, the second-ranked company in the American animation industry, has been chasing closely behind them.

It is reasonable that they would resort to some despicable means, which makes people have to believe it.

Damian Dixie tapped his fingers on the table, also lost in thought.

He looked through the data of "Kung Fu Panda" and found that the other party's movie data was not inferior to his at all.

This made Damian Dixie's face darken and he said to his men.

"Since DreamWorks has taken the initiative, we can't just ignore it. We should immediately find someone to discredit Kung Fu Panda on the Internet. I want their reputation to be the same as ours!"

As soon as Damian Dixie said this, everyone in the conference room changed their expressions slightly.

"Okay, President, I'll find someone right away!"

Damian Dixie nodded slightly and said in a cold voice: "This is a crucial step for our Dixie Animation Company. You must not let us down. Let's adjourn the meeting!"

Everyone walked out of the conference room, and Harrison Pierce followed the crowd out.

Harrison Pierce was extremely nervous at this moment.

Although he said that "The Pearl Princess" had so many bad reviews because someone was deliberately smearing it, the data was excellent after all.

But Harrison Pierce knew that was not the case at all.

The data is good now, but the word of mouth has not yet spread. It’s because of the previous strong publicity.

That is what Damian Dixie, the newly appointed president, could not see through.

"Should I consider running away sooner rather than later?" Harrison Pierce thought to himself. (End of this chapter)
