Nine o'clock in the morning.

Suzhou.

Jiahe Garden.

Wang Letian, who had been troubled by gastrointestinal problems for many years, turned off the alarm clock on his mobile phone and opened his eyes with difficulty, not wanting to leave the warm bed.

But my stomach has already protested, and if I don’t get up and have breakfast, I will probably get stomach trouble again.

His gastrointestinal problems are closely related to not eating breakfast for many years.

Wang Letian struggled to get up from the bed. The first thing he did was step on the electronic scale and take a look at his weight.

Although he has been troubled by gastrointestinal problems for many years, he is prone to obesity. He is 1.7 meters tall and weighs 182 pounds.

"I actually gained another two pounds." Wang Letian sighed and said, "Start losing weight today" that he repeated countless times.

After washing up, Wang Letian prepared a light breakfast for himself, including millet porridge, eggs, and a small plate of pickles. Before he even sat down on the stool, his cell phone was already turned on.

Recently, there have been more and more movie reviews online about "Infernal Affairs" and "In the Dark". He wanted to see what other people said about these two movies.

There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand people. Each film critic has a different perspective when watching the movie and will have very different feelings after watching it. There will always be some unique perspectives for their own reference.

Wang Letian can stand out among many film critics because he likes to constantly learn from and learn from others, which is why he has achieved today's achievements.

He was peeling eggs with both hands, and the stubby little finger of his right hand was sliding flexibly on the screen of his mobile phone. It seemed that he couldn't integrate with his entire fat body.

After peeling the eggs, Wang Letian pushed up his black glasses that were about to slip off. While eating, he looked at the film critic who usually pays more attention to them.

A simple breakfast took half an hour to finish, and most of the time was spent on the phone.

After clearing the dining table, Wang Letian went to the computer in the study and opened the film reviews of "Infernal Affairs" and "The Dark Forest" that he had written a few days ago.

The film review of "In the Dark" was published after "Infernal Affairs", and the number of likes was also the highest among all film critics.

After reading several other popular film reviews, and after some thought, he felt that some parts were indeed not very good and needed to be modified, and there were also some inspirations in other directions.

Wang Letian clicked on the keyboard and began to revise the film reviews of the two movies.

In recent days, many fans have left messages backstage, asking which movie can stand out in this competition, but Wang Letian has not replied.

In his opinion, "Infernal Affairs" and "In the Dark" are both movies of excellent quality. Judging from the current rumors on the Internet, they are still evenly matched and unpredictable.

After revising the film review, fans’ messages continued to pop up in the background.

After Wang Letian thought for a moment, he opened the mobile ticket purchasing software and happened to buy two movie tickets that were time-linked. He decided to watch "Infernal Affairs" and "The Dark Forest" again.

When two movies are of similar quality, it is almost impossible to judge which movie is doing better at the box office after watching it once.

Since there are so many fans asking, Wang Letian is going to make a prediction. If he guesses correctly, he will certainly gain some fans. If the prediction is wrong, he will at most get some black fans to spray him. Having been a film critic for so many years, he has already developed his mental capacity.

Practiced it.

‘Gululu’.

Wang Letian frowned, and his already dark face looked even more ugly. Without saying anything, he took out a few tissues and ran to the bathroom. Poor gastrointestinal issues and stomachaches were common.

…

afternoon.

Wang Letian took off his comfortable pajamas, dressed in black, tidied up his hair, and drove to the cinema.

He is usually a relatively homely person and seldom runs outside except watching movies. Otherwise, he is now nearly thirty years old. How can he still be single when he is not short of money?

The shopping mall is still bustling, but there are obviously fewer people than on the first day of the Spring Festival.

Some shops have already started working.

Wang Letian came to the cinema and went straight to the ticket machine. To save time, he took out two movie tickets together.

After sitting in the lobby for a while, Wang Letian entered the movie theater. The first movie was "Infernal Affairs".

Although it is my second time to watch it, as Wang Letian mentioned in the film review, it is worth revisiting again and again. Even though I know the plot, I am still looking forward to it.

The second movie was "Dark Forest". He personally prefers science fiction movies, and the whole process was quite exciting.

Wang Letian came out of the cinema. It was already dark outside. He didn't leave in a hurry. He sat in the car and savored the details of the two movies. After watching it this time, he had many different feelings.

He has been a film critic for more than ten years. He has written his own opinions on domestic and foreign films. He has extremely rich experience. He compared the two films from various aspects.

Although the styles of the two films are very different, there are still many comparisons.

In terms of production, "Dark Forest" is of course superior. With the help of 3D glasses, it is more visually impactful, which makes him, a science fiction movie lover, satisfied.

But "Infernal Affairs" has a richer story, and after watching it for the second time, I still want to watch it again.

Wang Letian leaned back on the driver's chair and kept comparing the advantages and disadvantages of the two movies.

After some comparisons, Wang Letian had an idea. Although he also liked "Dark Forest", he had to admit that "Infernal Affairs" has greater potential.

The biggest feeling that "Infernal Affairs" gave him is that it will become a classic after the baptism of time.

Looking back, I think about all the works that can be regarded as classic movies. I never tire of them. No matter how much time has passed, I still enjoy them when I watch them again.

The most important thing for a movie to make the audience remember is to tell a story.

"Infernal Affairs" can create a new style of police and gangster movies, and can make sketch movies popular again with the audience, which is enough to prove its potential in the future.

"Dark Forest" gave those viewers who had lost confidence in domestic science fiction movies regained hope. The movie was a good movie, but it was still a little short of becoming a classic, but it laid the foundation for the future development of domestic science fiction movies.

Wang Letian immediately took out his mobile phone, opened his Weibo and started editing.

"During this period, fans have been asking who is most likely to be the box office champion during the Spring Festival this year, "Infernal Affairs" or "The Dark Forest." In order to better answer fans, I watched the two movies again today."

"I have been a film critic for more than ten years and have read countless films. From my personal point of view, I think "Infernal Affairs" will most likely be the box office champion during this year's Spring Festival."

What follows is Wang Letian’s idea.

"Finally, I am also a fan of science fiction movies. "The Dark Forest" is excellent. Director Son Do-ho has pushed domestic science fiction movies to a new level!"

After confirming that there were no typos, Wang Letian posted the article on Weibo, then started the car and went home.

Wang Letian's sleep quality was very good. After posting on Weibo, he returned home and read the comments from fans, then washed himself and lay on the bed and fell asleep.

Late at night, too many people lost sleep because of Wang Letian's Weibo post, and even started arguing online, almost starting a fight.

However, this is exactly Wang Letian's purpose, to get the right flow. It doesn't matter what method it is, as long as it can get the right flow, that's good.

In the next few days, the box office of Spring Festival movies will always concern the hearts of many people.

The two movies "Infernal Affairs" and "In the Dark" are unique in their own category and are far ahead.

In the first few days, the box office of "The Dark Forest" was higher than that of "Infernal Affairs", but starting from the fourth day, "Infernal Affairs" overtook the box office on that day and became the daily box office champion.

The eighth day of the Lunar New Year, ten o'clock in the morning.

The official website of the General Administration of Culture has been updated.

The box office data of Spring Festival movies are also updated at the same time.

First place: "Infernal Affairs". Daily box office: 513 million. Total box office: 3.825 billion.

Second place: "In the Dark". Daily box office: 489 million. Total box office: 3.677 billion.

Third place:

At this moment, the eyes of everyone inside and outside the industry were focused on the two movies "Infernal Affairs" and "In the Dark".

Other movies have completely become foils at this moment.

Before the start of the Spring Festival, some people on the Internet speculated whether there would be a dark horse movie in the Spring Festival this year. After all, sometimes a dark horse movie would appear in the Spring Festival and counterattack to become the box office champion.

It would be really dramatic if a dark horse movie appeared this year and filmed the two extremely popular movies "Infernal Affairs" and "Into the Woods" on the beach.

But how can a dark horse appear so easily?

And with the presence of these two giants, Tan Yue and Sun Daohao, even if a dark horse movie does appear, the horse's legs will probably be discounted.

Many media have used many exaggerated and eye-catching headlines to report on the changes in the box office of Spring Festival movies.

When some media praised "Infernal Affairs", they did not belittle "The Dark Forest", but when some media reported it, they described "The Dark Forest" as a stepping stone to "Infernal Affairs".

Especially after entering the Internet age, many media like to do things like fanning the flames and gaining eyeballs.

There are many news reports that disparage "The Dark Forest" and exalt "Infernal Affairs".

A large number of "Dark Forest" fans are quite annoyed and angry, and even some "Dark Forest" crew members also expressed their indignation and dissatisfaction. However, the soul of "Dark Forest", director Son Do-ho, has never appeared.

Voice.

Two top movies, the contradiction seems to be slowly getting worse.

There seems to be sparks of friction between the top directors of the older generation and the top directors of the new generation.

At this time, what many people did not expect was that Tan Yue suddenly updated a Weibo post.

After Tan Yue posted this Weibo, the conflict that had gradually begun to appear on the Internet was resolved instantly.

This makes many people admire them. There are many young and frivolous geniuses, but humble and polite geniuses are more popular.
