Chapter 1374: Go To Meng Chang

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The first half of the film review briefly introduced the story outline. The readers would be able to roughly understand what kind of story it was without spoiler.

This also meant that Just Qian had not only watched the first three episodes, he had also watched the original version of ‘Successor’.

That meant that the situation was even worse.

That was because if he was only conflicted about the first three episodes, there would be nine more episodes. Many viewers would think that his view was relatively one-sided. They would still retain their opinions and continue watching the later episodes.

However, Just Qian was now criticizing the original version of ‘Successor’.

If the readers agreed with his views, there was no need to watch the last nine episodes.

Cui Geng glanced at it and found that Just Qian’s summary of the entire story of ‘Successor’ was relatively accurate. He did not misunderstand.

‘Successor’ was an anti-superhero theme. In other words, through this story, one had to mock the concept of ‘superheroes’ itself or dispel the ideology foundation of ‘superhero movies’ to criticize traditional superhero concepts.

Just Qian thought that this irony and criticism was a form of ‘self-righteousness’.

“‘Successor’ is nothing more than a story about a superhero who did evil, the people were deceived, the public opinion was controlled, the good system was useless, and the unscrupulous person succeeded in taking over.”

“We can’t find a single good person in the story.

“There’s no need to talk about the protagonist, Phil. He scolded the people around him. He naturally did not want to become a superhero to save the world and make the people in Hope City safer and better. Instead, he wanted to obtain his own selfish interests. It can be said that he was the worst person in this evil society, so he became the strongest superhero.”

“What about the other superheroes apart from Phil? Obviously, they are the same as Phil. They look bright on the surface, but they are actually stingy and committing all sorts of evil. They show their acting skills in front of the people, but they are highly tied to the large financial group in secret. They are not worthy of the words’ superhero ‘at all.”

“As for those large financial groups that are in charge of the media and superhero talent shows, they increased their control of Hope City by supporting superheroes. They enjoyed the fat of the ordinary people.”

“The so-called Superhero talent show and Superhero election are nothing more than these large financial groups and superheroes with ulterior motives. They are maliciously distorting and using the rules left behind by Captain World to make the model of ‘the people choosing superheroes to indirectly control strength’ become the model of ‘superheroes being controlled by the large financial group and acting talents to deceive the people to obtain strength’.”

“The final winner would be the superheroes and the large financial group. The people think that they have rights, but in fact, they have nothing because this rights have been controlled and stolen.”

“Many people might say that this is a very normal anti superhero movie. Why is it ‘self-righteous’?”

“That’s because the hypothesis of this story seems very reasonable. The logic seems very clear, but it is actually completely unable to withstand investigation.”

“It can also be said that there are many loopholes.”

“First of all, this story portrays the IQ of ordinary people too low. It even makes people feel that even a group of monkeys would not be deceived by these large financial groups and superheroes for so long.”

“Superhero talent shows have always been a scam. Pools of superheroes would show off their character on stage and harvest the support of the people to obtain strength. Then, their character would collapse one after another and explode into scandal.”

“Such a cycle has been going on for decades. How can the people not realize that they have been deceived? How can they not have doubts about these superheroes? How can they not find a way to change this situation?”

“Indeed, they changed. The result of changing is to choose a strange person like Phil.”

“I can only say that there is a clear act of lowering one’s intelligence in this area. After all, the people are stupid enough. It would be reasonable for Phil to take over. However, this kind of reduction in intelligence would greatly reduce the rationality of the entire story.”

“If a story model cannot be realized in a group of normal people, and can only be realized in a group of monkeys, or even a group of pigs, would this model still be meaningful to us?”

“Secondly, the large financial group and other superheroes in this story are too stupid. There are also serious dementia.”

“First, superheroes mocked and humiliated Phil mercilessly, and they were not afraid of being retaliated against. Then, some large financial groups were easily convinced by Phil and created a ‘successor’ variety show with him.”

“Can’t they tell that Phil has other intentions? Don’t they know how to be cautious?”

“The counterattack against Phil later on was even more ridiculous. Logically speaking, a stronger superhero could have crushed Phil. However, these large financial groups and superheroes fought for themselves and restrained each other. Phil managed to defeat them one by one.”

“Such a person can actually rely on the Superhero election to become the strongest superhero? That’s as ridiculous as a circus clown becoming the President!”

“All in all, the entire story of ‘Successor’ is built on a huge halo of wisdom reduction. Not only does it reduce the wisdom of all ordinary people, but it also reduces the wisdom of all the large financial groups and all the superheroes.”

“Phil, a unscrupulous rich second-generation heir, can only reach the peak of superheroes with this indiscriminate halo. The entire story can then be established.”

“Let us think about a movie with a superhero theme. What kind of values would it convey? It would be positive, positive, and responsible.”

“It’s not that superhero movies cannot exist. The key is that they have to be reasonable, profound, and truly analyze the problems. They have to unfold the story on the basis of the normal IQ of all characters. They don’t have to slap their heads and think of some gods to unfold and create some gimmicks to ‘oppose for the sake of opposition’, thinking that they have the wealth code.”

“Let’s not talk about the power of superheroes that surpasses the understanding of ordinary people. Even if you choose a building manager in a residential building, the relationships would often be intricate and complicated. Most people are smart. In the end, the results would be after a few households played a game. The ones selected would often be relatively respectable and truly capable people.”

“Such a huge Hope City, such an impressive group of superheroes, but the standard displayed is not even as good as an ordinary residential building. That’s really too funny.”

“Therefore, the filming of ‘Successor’ is very good. There’s nothing much to say about the production. The key is that the entire story went astray from the root. The entire plot was crooked. Therefore, it is useless no matter how well done it is.”

“From this, it is reasonable for this series to fail because it is neither good nor deep.”

…

Cui Geng could not help but frown after reading this review. His expression was solemn.

He felt that the other party had come prepared after reading the title. He was even more certain after reading the content.

The key was that the situation was a little difficult!

Did this film review make sense? It could not be said to be completely unreasonable.

On the surface, he seemed to have said so much, but in fact, he was grabbing onto something that was attacking him aggressively: Reducing his intelligence!

Just Qian felt that the entire story of ‘Successor’ was reducing intelligence. Superheroes reducing intelligence, large financial groups reducing intelligence, and ordinary people reducing intelligence. What’s more, it was reducing it very ridiculously. That was why Phil’s plot succeeded. That was why the anti superhero story was established.

Of course, Cui Geng did not think so. He thought that this was the normal IQ of these people.

No one could convince anyone about this, and no one could prove themselves.

He could only see if the audience would accept the former or the latter.

If the audience felt that this was not brain-destroying, Just Qian’s film review would definitely not have any effect. However, if the audience felt that this was brain-destroying, then this film review would have a huge impact on ‘Successor’. It would further reduce the ratings and reputation!

From the current situation, it was obvious that many viewers agreed with Just Qian’s point of view. Many people took the situation in reality as an example. How fair, fair, and fully participated in the series of elections was the science. Even if there were such or such problems, it was definitely impossible for it to be as young and stupid as the plot of ‘Successor’.

Cui Geng pondered for a long time before calling Huang Sibo back.

“Brother Huang, I thought about it, but I had no choice…”

“This itself is something that cannot be explained clearly. No matter how much you explain the rationality of the story, people who think that it is unreasonable will not change their minds.”

“We are raising a hypothesis, while others are standing on a high point to nitpick. How can we debate this? What’s more, this matter itself is meaningless.”

Huang Sibo sighed softly. “Sigh, I think so too.”

He did not have much hope when he called Cui Geng. He only felt that Cui Geng might be able to think of a good solution as the original author.

However, from the looks of it now, there was indeed no good solution.

Cui Geng suggested, “Brother Huang, why don’t you discuss it with the Advertisement and marketing department? They’re in charge of the publicity plan for ‘Successor’. We might be able to think of something.”

Realization dawned on Huang Sibo. “Oh, that’s right.”

“Alright, I’ll give them a call.”

Meng Chang was the one who made the publicity plan for ‘Successor’. Even though the publicity plan looked like a failure at the moment, the entire episode was not done airing after all. It was not enough to give a final judgment.

Meng Chang was very smart and many of his previous publicity plans had been successful. He might really have a solution.

Logically speaking, there was no reason for Fei Huang Workspace to be so nervous over a single film review. However, the problem was that the opening of ‘Successor’ was indeed a little cracked. The ratings and reputation were completely lower than expected.

He had to think of a way to reverse this reputation even if he did not have Just Qian’s post.

Otherwise, the popularity of the first three episodes would have been so cold.. Even if the next few episodes were broadcasted and gave the audience a few grand scenes, it would not be enough to change this situation.
