After hearing Lu Ban's words, the audience looked at each other in confusion.

Although everyone knew that Lu Ban, who usually only posted photos of food and cats, must have appeared on this kind of program to promote his new movie, no one expected that Lu Ban would really only talk about the new movie and not take the bait.

Originally, many people wanted to have fun and watch the confrontation between Lu Ban and these people.

But what about Lu Ban now?

No, wait, it will be released simultaneously around the world during the Spring Festival???

Audiences who knew a little about the matter immediately realized that they seemed to have encountered big news.

"Let's not talk about the movie release for now... Hmm? Wait a minute, Director Lu Ban, you just said that your movie will be released during the Spring Festival?"

The neutral host finally reacted.

"Yes, the Spring Festival is the most important period for domestic films. My films have never been released during the Spring Festival before. I hope that this time, everyone can watch it together when the family reunites and have a lively New Year."

Lu Ban spoke the truth.

"Lively and lively?"

The host found it a little unbelievable.

This "Doomsday" is obviously a disaster film, and there must be many scenes of world destruction, natural disasters and man-made disasters.

It's New Year's Day, and watching this kind of plot, isn't it a bit disgusting?

Does this lively and bustling scene refer to the heat from a volcanic eruption or the noise from a passing typhoon?

Who watches this during Chinese New Year or other festivals?

At the same time, the audience watching the show were whispering and talking about it.

“Isn’t it a bad idea to put this on during the New Year?”

"Last time Lu Ban said his movie heals people's hearts, I think it is quite depressing. This time, with all the excitement, I'm afraid there will be more deaths and injuries."

"I understand. Lu Ban wants us to remember safety during the Spring Festival and be careful of fires and accidents!"

"I strongly suspect that Lu Ban's film will definitely not follow the routine. Those critics who thought Lu Ban would deliver a disaster film with awesome special effects but a mediocre story may be in for a surprise."

"You guys don't know shit. We only watch these visually and audio-visual blockbusters during the Spring Festival. We only go to the cinema a few times a year. No one would go to the cinema to watch a romance or comedy, right?"

Seeing that the discussion at the venue was heading towards Lu Ban’s new movie, the guest who was good at boxing decided to get the topic back on track.

"Speaking of your new movie, Director Lu, I have always had a question. In all your past works, you are the protagonist, and you encounter different female characters. Most of these female characters have very miserable endings. Does this represent a subconscious mind, that is, you think that you are the most important, and all women are just tools to you?"

The guest who was good at boxing asked aggressively again.

"We all know that a work is a projection of one's consciousness. Throughout history, many creators have unconsciously invested their thoughts in their works, reflecting their understanding of the world. However, in your works, so far, there are no works in which women are the protagonists, defeating fate, and conquering fate. Does this mean that you subconsciously believe that women cannot control their own destiny?"

After hearing what the guest said, the neutral host immediately spoke up.

"That's a bit biased, isn't it? I believe Director Lu Ban definitely doesn't think so, right?"

He looked at Lu Ban.

As for Lu Ban, he actually didn't listen carefully to what the guest said. Sometimes, the more carefully you listen to what the other person says, the more you will find that there is no need to listen carefully. Many people express their opinions not for others to understand, but purely to express themselves and show their attitude.

He thought about it.

"I think it's better to let the work speak for itself. All your questions will be answered after you watch my latest movie, "The End of the World." This movie incorporates some of my thoughts on the modern social situation and future development. I can give you a few movie tickets for free, so you can watch it with your family during the Spring Festival!"

Lu Ban felt that he was quite generous.

"???"

The guest felt as if he had been insulted.

Why does Lu Ban keep talking about his new movie every other sentence? Is this movie really that good and important?

Moreover, Lu Ban would not directly respond to his questions no matter what, so there was no way to play this game!

The normal routine is that Lu Ban either agrees with his point of view, and the guest then madly expresses his own ideas, or Lu Ban disagrees with his point of view, and the guest uses his rich experience to express his own ideas.

But now, Lu Ban seems to have changed the topic

"So, Director Lu Ban, your new film will explore more grand topics?"

The guest in charge of hosting the event became interested.

He knew very well that no matter how popular this episode was, the ratings would not be low. He could discover first-hand information about Lu Ban's new movie and listen to Lu Ban talk about his creative ideas, which was something that even professional film magazines might not be able to arrange.

"Yes, in the past, many of my works focused on the emotions of ordinary people and explored the truth, kindness and beauty in human nature. But this time, my work will focus on the survival of the entire human community with a shared future, and present the reaction and performance of the human race in the face of disasters through a more grand narrative."

"???"

After hearing Lu Ban's words, everyone had more questions in their heads.

The truth, goodness and beauty in human nature?

Is there any deviation between our understandings of the words "truth, goodness and beauty"?

It seems that it wasn’t enough for Lu Ban to harm one or two people before, and this time he is planning to harm all of humanity?

"I have no interest in the community of shared future for mankind. I am just curious. Will your new film be like the previous ones, unfolding from the perspective of the male protagonist, and will the female characters be vases or protected objects?"

The guest refused to give in.

This caused dissatisfaction among the audience.

Everyone just wanted to hear Lu Ban talk more about the new movie, and they were not interested in the question of the heroine or hero.

"Stop talking so much nonsense and let Director Lu speak!"

"That's right, we're here to listen to Director Lu promote his new movie, not to listen to you creating opposition."

"This person is so long-winded, can he please step down?"

"Director Lu, don't worry about this person, just continue talking."

Seeing that the audience was getting excited, Lu Ban raised his hand to signal.

"Everyone, I wonder if you have had this feeling when watching disaster movies before: although it looks like a global disaster, in fact, only the protagonist and the people around him are experiencing it and trying to solve the problem. Other people and other countries seem to be completely powerless to stop it."

"As a result, many movies that look quite grand have become about the daily lives of a few people. The scale has become smaller, and the disaster has only special effects but no substance. My movie is intended to change this situation. Every character in the movie is a protagonist, running around for the disaster, working hard, and making their own contribution."

"I believe that after watching my new film, everyone will have a deeper understanding of the concept of human beings and have more profound thoughts."

"By that time, many of the issues that people are arguing about now will be trivial."

"So, I hope everyone can go to the cinema with their relatives and friends during the Spring Festival to watch my new movie "Doomsday."

Lu Ban said.

This is called not forgetting one's original intention.
