[The streamer is amazing! Another blockbuster has been released, and it's even a sci-fi movie! Hahaha, that's incredible!]
That's right! When we were making this sci-fi film, countless people were skeptical, but now those voices are gone.
[I said back then that I would support any film directed by Xu, regardless of genre, and I was right to support him.]
It looks like Iron Man's total box office is about to reach 2 billion. It seems like Mr. Xu has taken over most of the top-grossing films this year.
You wouldn't believe it until you hear it, but if you do the math, Xia Luo has 1.5 billion, Shi Tou has 500 million, Kung Fu has 5 billion, racing has 1 billion, plus this Iron Man.
The total box office revenue of all the films produced by Daxu Culture is approaching 10 billion yuan.
...
Holy crap, this is outrageous! They've only made a few movies and they've already grossed billions at the box office.
[There's no way around it, our anchor's last kung fu movie was just too amazing, it grossed over 5 billion yuan at the box office alone.]
However, it's well-deserved; just look at the movies he's made—every single one is great, they're all fantastic...
It looks like DaXu Culture will be swarming with awards at film festivals this year and next.
...
Hey everyone, don't get too excited yet! Check out today's trending topics. Wow, the people from the US are up to something!
[What's going on? What's the connection between our anchor and the US?]
[Sigh, it's hard to explain in a short time. Wait a minute, I'll post the link right away; it's today's trending topic.]
I saw it, holy crap, these people from the beacon of the United States are so shameless!
They actually claimed that the reason the streamer's 'Iron Man' movie outperformed 'Starship' at the box office was because of vote rigging!
...
As seen by Xu Lu's live stream viewers.
One of the trending topics today is titled "Hollywood director questions the box office fairness of the 'Iron Man' movie, stating..."
The trending topic is self-explanatory; it's simply that a director named John claims his sci-fi film "Starship" is absolutely no worse than that of a director from Da Xia.
He stated that all of Da Xia's science fiction films were terrible.
Moreover, the Great Xia is also a well-known science fiction desert, and it's impossible for people from that place to make good science fiction films.
So the fact that his 'Starship' was surpassed at the box office by that 'Iron Man' must mean there's something fishy going on...
As soon as this trending topic appeared, netizens immediately started discussing it.
Is the movie 'Iron Man' produced by Da Xu Culture any good or bad?
Those who have seen it will know.
Many people have also seen the sci-fi blockbuster 'Starship' that was imported from the United States.
Comparing the two, netizens naturally have their own judgment.
The comments section immediately erupted in excitement:
"Although Starship Troopers was a pretty good movie, I prefer Iron Man. Speaking of which, these people from the United States are too arrogant. Who gave them the courage to say such things?"
"No problem! Although Iron Man by Daxu Culture is indeed a commercial film, it can still be considered a science fiction film, and a very good one at that."
On the contrary, this so-called starship, apart from the plot being set in a spaceship, doesn't seem to have much science fiction element at all.
"What the person upstairs said is absolutely right. This is no starship. It's just a set of space capsules that were built, and then some things happened that could happen anywhere."
If you change the context, for example, at sea, it can definitely be described as a 'ship', or on land, it can be described as a maze or something like that..."
"That's what I dislike about Hollywood. They think everything they do is better, they're so arrogant. Doesn't our Great Xia deserve good science fiction films?"
...
"I was really angry when I saw this news. Although I didn't recommend Da Xu Culture to make science fiction films before, the ones they made were really good."
This guy named John is now accusing someone of ticket rigging just because his movie didn't do as well at the box office. That's completely unreasonable!
"It's perfectly normal. Hollywood directors look down on directors from our Great Xia, that's understandable. But I have to say something about this: Iron Man is definitely better than Starship!"
"What trashy starship? It's not even worthy to shine Iron Man's shoes. Damn it, what kind of 'Good Laugh' director is this? Have you even watched it yourself? You're just spouting nonsense here. I'm ashamed for you..."
...
In the comments section, apart from a very small number of people who fawn over foreign things, the rest of the people expressed righteous indignation at this news.
In the past, when Great Xia didn't have any good science fiction films, we just had to accept whatever others said because we really couldn't produce anything worthwhile.
But now that we have a good sci-fi movie, you can't keep talking nonsense!
A good movie is a good movie. Our Great Xia also has its own excellent sci-fi blockbusters, which are in no way inferior to those of your beacon country.
Don't think that just because you're some 'good-natured' director you can spout nonsense with your eyes wide open. The audience of Daxia won't tolerate you.
With netizens enthusiastically upvoting the post, it quickly climbed to the top of the trending topics list.
With such a big incident occurring, DaXu Culture naturally noticed it immediately.
Everyone expressed considerable anger.
Who are you? You think your country, the "lighthouse," can make good sci-fi movies, while our Daxu Culture's movies are just vote-rigging?
Is there no logic left? Is there no reasoning at all?
