MTL - You Don’t Understand The Pain Of Being Popular-Chapter 154 The first five or four days of being popular

It took Yucheng a long time to calm down.

This movie... the quality is much better than he imagined!

The picture is exquisite, the special effects are real, and the background of the interstellar future is set more brilliantly than many science fiction movies.

Most importantly, the plot is very interesting.

The absurd world, the intersection of reality and fantasy, the O'Henry-style ending, and the core of thought behind it are all worthy of deep thinking.

"However, the plot still needs to be sorted out..." Yu Cheng pondered.

He understood most of the plot, especially the reversal at the end, which sublimated the whole story, directly changing from a suspense film to an absurd film with profound connotations.

However, some details still puzzled him. There are faint answers in his mind, but he can't connect them.

Yu Cheng returned to the forum. At this time, the posts about "The Invisible Artist" had already covered hundreds of stories.

Like him, several students went to see the original film. They left their opinions in the post and directly built the post into a tall building.

Yu Cheng turned to the floor where the poster posted, intending to read the content analysis.

【The poster loves to eat fish:】

[Brief description of the movie plot (contains a lot of spoilers, be careful!)]

[When I first watched "The Invisible Entertainer", I thought it was a detective film.

The female star Xu Jia is the protagonist of the crime. She stirs up trouble in the entertainment industry and drives everyone crazy.

Her image on the screen is perfect, like an angel who has fallen into the world; but in fact, she is a demon crawling out of hell.

She encouraged fans to fall in love with her crazily, and even committed suicide for her; she also intentionally created public opinion, making the entire interstellar world be affected by her every move; at the same time, she also teased the police, deceived, and fooled everyone.

At that time, I even guessed that Xu Jia was here for revenge.

She wants to drag this twisted, crazy, entertainment-to-death society to be buried with her.

But the ending of the movie was completely beyond my expectation.

—Yes, there is no such person as Xu Jia in this world!

She is just a virtual human face randomly generated by AI.

The timeline of the movie is quite chaotic, and the director has repeatedly used flashbacks, interludes and other techniques, and even added flashbacks to the flashbacks.

Therefore, I will start from the end of the movie and work backwards through the entire plot line.

To put it simply, the background of the story takes place in Interstellar. This is a society with highly developed information, and people are more pursuing pleasure and excitement. Therefore, entertainment stars have become the most eye-catching professions.

Ke Qing, a student at the University of Science and Technology who is obsessed with artificial intelligence technology, randomly generated virtual faces through AI in an experiment.

Her roommates found the photos and were attracted to one of them, snapping pictures and posting them online.

So far, the rumors have been out of control.

A netizen made up the celebrity's name and made up a masterpiece.

Since then, another netizen created a popular science entry related to her and added detailed information.

She gradually has fans. The follow-up media used AI technology to forge clips of movies and TV series, and the lies about her became more complete.

As Xu Jia became more and more popular, the fat man registered an account, falsely claiming that he was her manager, and some people falsely claimed that he was Xu Jia's ex-boyfriend, and even some celebrities falsely claimed that they had worked with Xu Jia...

The farce got bigger and bigger, and fans who were madly infatuated with Xu Jia committed suicide for her, which completely became the fuse that ignited everything.

With the police investigation, everything finally came to light.

Xu Jia is just a fictional character that exists in a lie.

Whether it's fans who committed suicide for her or netizens who were crazy about her, all their arguments revolve around a ridiculous lie.

How ironic. 】

Yu Cheng read the entire article and was thoughtful.

"The plot is similar to what I understand. It seems that this movie is really strong..." He couldn't help being speechless, "How come it only has a score of 4.9?"

Full of doubts, Yu Cheng logged into the comment area of ​​a certain page and directly entered the negative review interface.

[User cat is not cute: score 2 stars]

[The plot line is too messy, the camera flashes too fast, I don't understand why the director uses such a camera language. For a moment it is a financial fraud case, and for a moment it turns into a thriller and suspense. Sometimes it is an illusory dream, and sometimes it is a chaotic reality... I give 2 stars because of the special effects of the movie, otherwise it is not worth a star. 】

[User drinking iron juice: score 1 star]

[I don't understand, if Xu Jia is just a face generated by AI, then how did she manage to stir up trouble in the entertainment industry before? How could she provoke the police, and how could she release a video to guide the public and make things bigger and bigger? Outrageous! 】

[User 000: Rating 1 star]

【Torture all the way! The camera language is erratic, the plot is deliberately mysterious, and the reversal at the back confuses the front perspective. Going to see this movie during the Spring Festival is like being caught in the door. 】

[User monthly content: score 1 star]

【Disappointed, the subsequent reversal is too far-fetched, there are too many bugs, and I feel like I can’t come back. 】

[User star sighs: score 1 star]

[The connection between the plots has a blunt sense of isolation, and the protagonist Xu Jia has a particularly weird portrayal, and every time she appears on the stage, she becomes different from before. It seems to be formed by splicing many fragments. 】

[User page turning order: score 2 stars]

[It looks full of high-end sense, but it is nothing if you look closely. A lot of plots were inexplicably inserted in the middle, about the manager, the best friend, the fake boyfriend... However, these stories have no connection with the main story, and I was about to fall asleep watching it. 】

Yu Cheng carefully looked down one by one.

Some bad reviews are really unreasonable, and it can be felt that the people who rated it didn't understand the movie at all.

However, there are also many bad reviews that are justified, and they are not random reviews.

There are several points that everyone doubts.

First, the timeline is chaotic and incomprehensible; second, the plot is too exaggerated and reversed too much, which is unreasonable; third, Xu Jia's image is too diverse and fragmented; finally, many supporting roles are inserted for no reason. cloud.

"No wonder there are so many bad reviews..." Yu Cheng muttered to himself.

However, he does not share the views of these comments.

After sorting out his thoughts, he reopened "The Invisible Artist" and continued to read it.

It's really hard to sort out your thoughts after watching a movie like this just once.

He needs to watch it many times to understand the core of the story more deeply.

…

In the middle of the night, the moonlight is as clear as water.

At this time, the forum was already full of discussions, and many students had finished watching the movie and were discussing it enthusiastically in the forum.

There is no doubt that "The Invisible Entertainer" is a very good movie. Anyone who knows some professional knowledge also knows its artistic value.

[How could this be only 4.9 points? The rating of a certain section is too outrageous, I suspect they didn't understand it at all! 】

[No, there are a lot of good reviews in a certain section, and even called this movie a "magic work"... Unfortunately, most of the people who gave bad reviews. 】

[The timeline is indeed a bit confusing, with a lot of flashbacks, but I think this is the characteristic of this type of film! 】

[Yes, the plot of the story is absurd. A large number of imaging shots, grotesque pictures, and people's illusory imaginations push this "absurdity" to the extreme. 】

[I personally can't accept this shooting style, it's too confusing. However, absurd stories, as well as their ideological core, are very attractive to me. This is an excellent work. 】

…

Yu Cheng had already watched the movie three times.

He sat in front of the computer, entered the last word of the document, and then clicked the left mouse button—

Post forum!

User Chengyu: "The students on the first few floors have almost analyzed the plot, so let me add a few interesting points."

"First, why did so many people participate in the compilation of Xu Jia's experience and forged her into a real person? Is this plot too exaggerated and ridiculous?

the answer is negative.

From the story, we can infer that Xu Jia is not alone in this era of entertainment to death.

In addition to Xu Jia, there are thousands of real stars. They are rumored and fabricated information every day. Their education background, birthday and even past experience may be false.

People don't know that Xu Jia is a fake, so when they see the star, they start making it up as usual.

Xu Jia is an "invisible" star, she is "unreal".

So, are those stars that exist in real life absolutely "real"?

I personally think that there are tens of thousands of Xu Jia in this world. They are all fictional characters. "

"Secondly, why does Xu Jia's image give people a sense of fragmentation, as if she has multiple personalities?

The reason is simple, Xu Jia is just an illusion that exists in people's minds. Everyone's fantasy of Xu Jia is different, so her image will also be different.

During the police investigation, "Xu Jia" appeared many times.

The promotional video of the new movie is forged by people for profit. Xu Jia here is full of work.

And the person who hacked into the police officer's optical brain and provoked him was a fan who was crazy about Xu Jia.

Xu Jia here is a mocking gesture of aloofness, as if she is the **** of the world.

Even the netizen who claimed to have met "Xu Jia" by chance was actually because he had identified the wrong person.

Therefore, in his eyes, Xu Jia is cute, playful and exciting. "

"Third, why do the plots insert stories of many supporting characters?

Because these people jointly shaped Xu Jia, and they also jointly constructed this absurd world.

The instinct of human nature tends to enjoy pleasure and seek excitement. And business will cater to the instinct of human nature and expand this enjoyment.

The media with false reports, crazy fans, passers-by who are keen to eat melons, keyboard warriors who express their opinions wantonly, and those who gossip... They together constitute this society that entertains to death.

Therefore, the stories of supporting characters are essential, because the core of each story is interlinked—

That is, we are ultimately ruined by what we love. "

…

After Yucheng posted this post, soon there were new replies downstairs.

[Fuck, big bosses are haunting! 】

[It turns out that’s what happened. I didn’t understand some plots, but now I finally understand. 】

[This analysis point is very interesting. It seems to be an absurd story, but it actually reflects reality? 】

[No wonder Xu Jia's character design gave me a sense of fragmentation, I just want to say something awesome. 】

[Yes, Xu Jia's image is the finishing touch of the whole movie. She is the existence we love, and at the same time, the existence that destroys us...]

[Weak question, who is the actress playing Xu Jia? While the characters form a contrast, they also grasp the delicate balance! It is an acting skill beyond our reach. 】

…

This night was very lively for some students of University B.

Everyone posted posts to analyze "The Invisible Artist", and the floor became higher and higher, which even shocked many professional film critics.

Some people took screenshots of these remarks and posted them on other social platforms.

The movie has already been released, and you don't need to go to the cinema to buy tickets, you can watch it directly on your computer for free.

Therefore, more and more people noticed the movie and joined the discussion.

There are still bad reviews in the comment area. Some people think that the movie has too many bugs and the logic is confusing. But at the same time, the proportion of praise is also rising.

Finally, a newly created Weibo entry climbed into the trending search at a slow speed——
