After sitting in the movie theater for a while, Zhao Fu's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
Because from the discussions around him, he only heard topics like "Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang", and there was very little discussion about his new movie "Life's Great Comedy".
Zhao Fu took a deep breath and thought to himself:
"It's all the fault of those investors who interfered and thought that everything would be fine if we avoided making that Xu's movie."
But you didn't expect that the fact that someone else's movie was released first would have such a big impact on the movies released later.
If my "Life's Great Comedy" had been released at the same time as "Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang," there wouldn't be so little discussion about it now.
After sitting for a while, the movie was about to start.
Zhao Fu also took the ticket he had just bought and walked into screening room number four, where 'The Great Comedy of Life' was being shown.
But soon, his expression turned even more unpleasant.
Because when he walked in, he discovered that the screening room was not even full.
In fact, less than two-thirds of the people were seated.
Keep in mind that today is the weekend, and with so many people on holiday, the traffic will definitely be higher than usual.
After discovering this, Zhao Fu attributed the reason to the late release of his film, which caused the 'Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang' to attract attention first.
Otherwise, the theaters wouldn't have been packed on the opening day.
Of course, he also had to admit that the guy surnamed Xu was currently more popular than him.
As for why the other person was taller than him, Zhao Fu believed it was because the other person debuted earlier and became famous earlier, while he debuted later and became famous later.
Thinking of this, Zhao Fu took a deep breath and thought to himself:
"Don't be impatient, take it one step at a time. As long as I'm on the right path every step of the way, I'll naturally be able to surpass my opponent step by step. This 'life comedy' is my first step in defeating Xu Lu."
While I was thinking, subtitles appeared on the screen.
With five loud bangs, the five large characters "Life's Great Comedy" on the screen crashed down from the sky.
This also signifies that the plot of the movie has officially begun.
Although he was the director of the play, Zhao Fu was acting like an ordinary audience member, immersing himself in the unfolding story.
Based on his experience, the film was quite successful, with plenty of laughs, and was definitely a very good comedy.
In fact, the laughter of the audience around him proved this point, but Zhao Fu's brows furrowed more and more.
Although laughter often rang out around him, it did not meet his expectations at all.
As Zhao Fu had anticipated.
The laughter from the audience at the venue should have been several times more frequent and louder than it is now!
"Why is there so little sound? Is it because the screening room isn't full?"
"Wait a little longer. It's also possible that some viewers haven't yet become immersed in the story and therefore can't immediately grasp the humor and punchlines!"
Zhao Fu thought to himself.
But during the anxious wait that followed, he noticed that while the audience was laughing, the laughter remained at the same intensity as before and did not increase with the passage of time.
"That shouldn't be the case. If some people can laugh, why don't others laugh along with them?"
If some people laughed, it means the joke was delivered effectively. Why didn't others laugh? Are they simply not naturally inclined to laugh?
Zhao Fu was a little confused.
Why do you people who are naturally averse to laughter come to watch comedies? Wouldn't it be better to watch some tragedies?
Even after the film ended, Zhao Fu still couldn't figure it out.
However, just as he was leaving the stage somewhat absentmindedly, he suddenly heard a member of the audience next to him say something:
"This movie is alright, but it's not as funny as 'Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang'!"
Someone nearby chimed in:
"Yes, I watched Director Xu's 'Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang' yesterday, and it immediately raised my standards for laughter. But watching this 'Life Comedy' today, it just feels a bit bland..."
Upon hearing these words, Zhao Fu's first reaction was disbelief.
But after looking closely, he realized that he didn't know the people discussing the topic, so they definitely weren't there to annoy him.
Thinking of this, Zhao Fu quickly stepped forward to greet him, forcing a smile, and said:
"Excuse me, I overheard you guys discussing something about 'Tang Bohu'... Is this movie really good?"
Upon hearing his question, the man who had spoken earlier looked puzzled and replied:
"Dude, you haven't even watched 'Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang' yet, and you've come to watch this 'Life Comedy'?"
I truly admire your aesthetic sense.
We only came to watch "The Great Comedy" because we were bored after watching "Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang".
This film is quite inferior to Director Xu's, but it's still good for passing the time!
I suggest you watch 'Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang' first; that's the pinnacle of comedy..."
Zhao Fu could no longer hear what the other person said after that.
He could hardly believe that an ordinary viewer would view his work in this way.
"What kind of taste do they have?"
My movies are only good for killing time, while that guy surnamed Xu's movies are the pinnacle of comedy?
I just became famous a little later than him; otherwise, it's hard to say who would be the top comedian right now!
Zhao Fu thought angrily.
As he walked out of the screening room, he watched people enter the adjacent "Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang" screening room, and his heart wavered a little.
But in the end, Zhao Fu held on and didn't buy a ticket for the movie; instead, he chose to go straight home.
