Chapter 243: Chapter 227: This Movie is Pretty Intense_i

Of course, the instances of second-time viewers are few.

After most people watch a movie, they won’t revisit it anytime soon.

The memory of just having watched a movie is too vivid; rewatching it would inevitably lose a bit of that freshness.

It’s better to wait a while until you’ve forgotten some of the movie’s content- rewatching it then is much more enjoyable.

Thus.

As the first batch of audience finished viewing, the comments section for Catmill’s “Flirting Scholar” was bustling —

“I’m gonna die laughing at this movie!”

“I just saw a barrage of comments, someone said they laughed like a goose, another said they laughed like a pig, and I laughed like a chicken: cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck.”

From now on, roaches shouldn’t be called roaches, but Xiao Qiang instead. This naming is so damn clever, considering the roach’s survival ability; it totally deserves such a title!”

The comedic timing in this film is so dense, it could trigger claustrophobia!”

“The misery competition part had me laughing till my muscles cramped….”

The movie’s design is so clever, aside from being funny, the ending where Tang Bohu stabs someone to death without a gun was a bit suave.”

“For the first time in my life, I give an Internet-movie a perfect score…I used to watch Internet-movies just for fun…but this whole movie is fun….”

“The comedy in this movie is very innovative, I don’t know what to say, it’s both baffling and hilarious!”

“My mom watched it with me, and we both couldn’t stop laughing- ”

Audiences have a certain disregard for network blockbusters-they don’t really treat it seriously.

Even if they occasionally watch these movies, it’s just for amusement; they don’t have high expectations.

However, “Flirting Scholar” delivers a pleasant surprise to numerous viewers!

It’s a classic comedy movie!

Catmill’s website has a rating function, with the highest score being ten.

And currently, the score for “Flirting Scholar” has reached an astonishing 9.4!

Of course, this is also due to the low number of reviewers.

A movie’s score will inevitably be lowered as more people comment.

And there are some who specifically target high-scoring movies, then give them the minimum score, under the pretense of ‘balancing it out’.

To highlight their grasp of the big picture.

But for now, there aren’t people who enjoy ‘balancing it out’, after watching

this movie, most people have simply enjoyed it.

Therefore….

In Xian Yu’s Tribe comment section, a small bombshell was dropped.

Just became a fan! Came here to bow down to the great one, just finished watching “Flirting Scholar”, the finest comedy film I’ve seen in years!” This is a new fan who only became Xian Yu’s fan after watching the movie.

And there are more than one such new fan:

Also became a fan after watching the movie, the scriptwriter turns out to be a composer, such a genius!”

With my many years of movie-watching experience…no matter what kind of movie I watch…this movie is definitely going to be a hit!”

If this movie doesn’t become a hit, there’s no justice in the world! It’s good enough even for a theatrical release!”

“Spent five bucks to watch such a classic movie, geez, feels like I got a great bargain, I must follow the scriptwriter GOAT.”

“Kneel down to the great one!”

“I was busy today and didn’t have time to go to the theater, a bit regretful, so I just found a network blockbuster to watch, but who would have thought I’d get to watch such an excellent movie, I’d support this movie even if it was in the theaters!”

Apart from new fans, old fans were also especially excited:

“Who dares to say Xian Yu becoming a screenwriter isn’t his main job!”

“After watching the movie, I don’t know what to say, how does Xian Yu’s brain operate? His music composition is already amazing, but his screenwriting is just as superb!”

“This movie is undoubtedly phenomenal- ”

I initially just gave it a casual watch, since I pride myself as Xian Yu’s fan, but I didn’t expect to be pleasantly surprised!”

“Xian Yu should make more movies in the future, we’re behind you!”

“I was wrong, I shouldn’t have doubted Xian Yu. When I started watching the movie, I even told my friend online that this movie is definitely going to flop, but now my face feels pulverized!”

“Just watched for five minutes, and then…! impulsively jumped into it…This is

the most worthwhile five dollars I’ve spent this year!”

“You’re telling me this is a network blockbuster? Its ceiling has been upped by whole levels because of this movie!”

Humorous, innovative, surprising, delightful!

The first group of viewers gave the most direct and straightforward approval and reviews, especially the previously skeptical old fans of Xian Yu, who are extremely shocked right now!

Of course.

Some of the poems and couplets in the movie also caused some discussions.

However, the discussions about the poems and couplets do not compare to that about the movie itself, after all, people watch movies mainly for the quality of the movie itself.

A good storyline is the key.

The rest, while done well, only serve as icing on the cake.

Moreover.

These people also highly recommended “Flirting Scholar” to their friends and family through channels like the Tribe and circle of friends:

“Quickly come and watch, it’s a legendary network blockbuster!”

“The first network blockbuster of July, I strongly recommend!”

“If you don’t laugh after watching this movie, I’ll send you a ten bucks red packet!”

“You guys have to watch “Flirting Scholar”, it’s a classic comedy!”

“Only after watching “Flirting Scholar” did I realize that Xian Yu is a writer who was distracted by composing, suggest everyone come and watch it, don’t miss this spectacular show!”

The video site has a gifting feature.

That is, by spending five bucks, you can gift the movie to a friend, and then they can watch it for free.

The price of five bucks is only the cost of a few cigarettes.

So, after the first group of viewers finished the movie, not only did they recommend it vocally, some even spent an extra five bucks to share the movie with people they are close to for free.

Brothers… sisters… parents…

Even boyfriends… girlfriends…

Under such a wave of promotion, the views for “Flirting Scholar” surged in a short time.

When it was five hours into the release of “Flirting Scholar”.

The office for Penguin Video.

The department for Internet-movies.

The staff member Ji Hao, who was in charge of monitoring the data for this month’s movie releases, suddenly broke the office’s silence with a sharp voice:

“Holy cow, this movie is awesome!”

Usually, the first few hours of an Internet-movie’s release don’t really have anything worth noting, and it typically takes until the second or third day to gauge which new release is more popular.

But there are always exceptions.

Sometimes, certain movies would explode with incredibly high popularity on the very first day of their release, so when Ji Hao let out a shrill exclamation, many colleagues in the department curiously looked towards Ji Hao’s computer screen, and some even joked:

“How awesome?”

However, when this group saw what was on Ji Hao’s computer screen, the room fell into silence.

Immediately following that, there were sounds of inhaling sharply throughout the office…
