School was over in the afternoon, and the students, whether junior high school or high school students, who had been "imprisoned" for the whole day, ran out of the school gates like a swarm of merry-go-rounds.
Bus stations, subway stations, Internet cafes, game arcades... charge towards their respective goals.
"Hurry up, we won't have a chance later!"
"Pan Pan will bring me some zombies later."
"Take me through the 3S mission today. I haven't completed it all day long."
"At noon, a purple ink bamboo bracelet was sold for 200,000 yuan. I will buy some equipment."
Four or five junior high school students aged 12 or 13 were walking towards the black Internet cafe next to the school while intensely discussing a popular online game.
Obviously, the leading kid named Pan Pan should be more awesome than them, otherwise he wouldn't ask for help.
However, when they reached the intersection, Pan Pan stopped.
"You guys go online. I'm going home to do my homework. There are too many homeworks today. I'm afraid I won't be able to finish them."
When the master refused to go, a group of rookies immediately started shouting.
"If you don't go, who will take me to fight zombies? Aren't you doing your homework during class?"
"What should I do with my mission? I won't be able to beat 3S even if I die."
"If you can't finish it, just come and make up for it tomorrow morning. I'll just do it for half an hour."
Often after school in the afternoon, Pan Pan would go home half an hour late and go to an Internet cafe or game arcade to play games.
Anyway, with the traffic conditions in Beijing, parents would not be suspicious if there was a traffic jam. Let alone half an hour, even an hour is normal.
But today, Pan Pan was not in the mood to play games, so she left her friends behind and ran to the bus stop.
Get on the bus, get your student card.
Go home and do your homework first, eat, and then continue your homework.
At nine o'clock in the evening, there was movement in the living room, and dad came back.
Pan Pan felt a little bit of anticipation in his heart. This morning he seemed to have heard his father say that he would come back later to watch the movie "A Perfect World" that the People's Daily said all parents should watch.
He watched this movie on Saturday during the holiday, and the student ticket was half-price. He started watching Li Qian's movies after "Jaws".
Like most children from ordinary families, Pan Pan's parents are busy working all day long. All they talk to him about when they get home from get off work is nothing more than exams, grades, and homework.
After watching "Perfect World", although he doesn't understand it very well, he also wants to be like his father and Zhang Hanyu in the movie, playing games and football with him, instead of keeping a straight face all day long and smiling more, otherwise he will
I don’t know whether my father is in a good mood or not. He wants some pocket money but he is afraid of being scolded and dare not ask.
It’s not like saying “Eat enough” every morning when eating, saying “Be careful on the road and listen carefully to the lectures” after eating, and asking when you come back in the evening: “Have you eaten, how are you at school, have you finished your homework?”
All day long, apart from these words, Pan Pan basically never heard his father say anything else to him, and he never took him out to play on weekends.
Thinking that the filmmaker was not a father, but was better than his real father, Pan Pan felt envious.
Just as I was thinking wildly, the door suddenly opened, and my father still said what he said every day when he came home.
"Pan Pan, have you finished your homework?"
The dad at the door still has the same tired face. He seems to be very tired every day. Even if he takes a two-day break at home on the weekend, he still looks like this. He always looks the same.
Except during parent-teacher conferences, I laugh a lot more than at home.
Hearing this, Pan Pan was a little disappointed and nodded habitually, "A little more."
Looking at the homework book spread out on his son's desk, Pan Pan's father smiled happily, but after a day's work, there was only a tired look on his face, and his smile was ugly.
Then he took out his right hand behind his back and placed a small box on the desk.
"Pan Pan, this is the mobile phone that dad bought for you. The SIM card is also inside. Be careful on the way to and from school. There are many bad people outside now. If you have anything to do, call dad. If you are stuck in traffic for a long time, call mom.
Don't let her worry about you."
"dad?"
Looking at this mobile phone box, Pan Pan was a little stunned.
Since he was ten years old, he has wanted to have a mobile phone that can connect to the Internet and call QQ, but for two years, no matter it is a New Year or a birthday, no matter how many points he scored in the exam, his parents always have excuses not to buy it.
"Do your homework well and don't leave it too late. If you're hungry, there are some potato chips outside, but don't eat too much at night."
Pan Pan's father, who was not good at words, finished his instructions, smiled at his son, gently closed the door and went out.
Looking at the closed door, Pan Pan had no time to think about it and opened the phone box with surprise on her face.
It's not a new 3G smartphone, it's just a Nokia 3110C, which can surf the Internet and insert a memory card to play a few small games.
The key is to be able to access qq.
I checked the phone bill and found it was 30 yuan, so I immediately opened a data plan.
Although I don’t have a mobile phone, I don’t need anyone to teach me this kind of thing.
Go to QQ, send a chat, and chat with a few classmates who have mobile phones or computers at home for half an hour.
Suddenly I remembered that the strawberries I planted in the Internet cafe yesterday afternoon were already ripe.
When I opened the farm, I saw that half of the strawberries that had matured for 24 hours for the first time had been stolen. I quickly collected them all with a look of pain on my face.
I also calculated the maturity time of various crops with great interest, calculated the harvest time, and sown the seeds.
Children's happiness is so simple.
Almost an hour passed before I reluctantly put down my phone and continued to do my homework.
...
"Goodbye, Mom and Dad."
"Slow down on the road."
Early the next morning, Pan Pan's mother couldn't help but blame her husband when she saw her son happily carrying a schoolbag to school.
"I think you are crazy. You are so emotional after watching a movie. Buy him a mobile phone."
If she buys a mobile phone after watching a movie, then she won't buy a computer next time. She doesn't even know if her husband is too busy with work.
"Honey, don't worry, our son is a good boy. He only has a mobile phone and it won't delay his studies."
Pan Lei's father also knows his wife's doubts. As a parent, the biggest expectation for children of this age is to grow up safely, have good grades, and get into a good university.
Any things or things that may have an impact are strictly not allowed to be touched.
But after watching "A Perfect World", I don't know what the little boy in it would have become if he hadn't met the male protagonist and been in a repressive environment. But he definitely wouldn't be what his parents expected him to be.
Besides, that little boy followed a criminal and let himself go while not learning badly. How could he worry that his child's use of a mobile phone would affect his studies?
"I have some confidence in our family Pan Pan. How can I not educate my own son well?" Pan Pan's father said with confidence.
"I really don't know what kind of ecstasy that movie gave you." Pan Pan's mother muttered, planning to take some time to watch it too. After all, it was published in the People's Daily, so it shouldn't be a waste of money and time.
...
The People's Daily Social Edition took "A Perfect World" as its theme and discussed the education of today's youth, as well as family and parent-child relationships.
Originally, this kind of topic was often covered in newspapers, but it is very rare now that it is mainly about movies and is a commercial movie.
On the one hand, it is the second largest circulation newspaper in the country, and on the other hand, it is a blockbuster movie, which immediately aroused widespread discussion.
The people who watch People's Daily and those who watch movies are actually relatively different.
According to statistics, viewers aged 15-25 account for 48%, and these people basically do not read the People’s Daily.
The People's Daily's largest audience, 34%, is the 25-30 year old group, which accounts for 15% of the movie audience.
35% of People’s Daily’s readers are between the ages of 30 and 45, and most of them have children. Children are between the ages of five or six and fifteen or sixteen. This age group only accounts for 16% of the movie audience.
It is a movie that every parent should watch once, and this article from People’s Daily has also attracted the attention of many parents.
The parent-child relationship is often ignored in life. Parents themselves may not even realize what kind of relationship they have with their children.
After watching "A Perfect World", some people were deeply touched. Some people disagreed. Everyone has their own ideas, and not every parent agreed with the plot of the movie.
Three days have passed, not only the media but also parents, teachers, and education experts have been debating over the way the male protagonist should be educated in a perfect world.
The opinions are nothing more than two, one criticizing and the other praising, two kinds of opposition between education.
...
Li Qian, who had already gone south to Ninghang, was speechless when he saw so many experts discussing the plot of a movie.
At Ninghang Normal University, Ma Qingyang's alma mater, the original meeting has turned into a dialectic meeting for the students.
For those who studied normal school, many of them may become teachers, that is, educators, in the future, so naturally they are no strangers to this topic.
Different education methods have actually been discussed for a long time.
"Actually, I have always believed that movies are movies. Since the invention of movies, they have been used as an entertainment tool. Everyone can understand different ideas from different movies, but they cannot regard what they understand as correct.
, but promoted it as truth.
There may be a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand people, and what you see may not necessarily be what others see, because movies always have a fixed perspective, and what you see is only this side of things.
In fact, my movie does not talk about any educational topics. At most, it is similar to the family relationship between father and son. I think no matter what the education method, the father's company is essential for the children.
Education requires teaching students in accordance with their aptitude. The character Wu Lei in the movie has a specific image fixed, and he is an exception.
For example, three children all hate learning. The first one is because he is born with difficulty concentrating, the second one is not interested in this kind of learning, and the third one is slow to warm up, which makes him seem not to like learning. What should I do?
What about targeted education?
Children with different personalities, including those who are naughty, those who are sensitive, those who are timid and have low self-esteem, those who have strong self-esteem, and those who are thick-skinned, also need different education methods."
...
"If you continue like this, you will become an educator."
After saying something that he couldn't remember clearly, Li Qian felt a little dizzy on the way to the next performance.
These snake oil words may seem reasonable at first glance, but they are the same as those that have not been said. Li Qian has learned similar speeches a long time ago, and he speaks a lot of them when he opens his mouth.
You can't talk nonsense about youth education, and since you're not a professional, it's best to say unnutritious things.
Youth education and parent-child relationship have become hot topics, but Li Qian was also criticized.
Some education professionals criticized Li Qian's film for conveying wrong educational concepts.
"Li Qian is just a movie maker, what does he know about education!"
This kind of sounds pretty good, and it would be nice if it didn't allow Li Qian to apologize to the people of the country, saying that he had wrongly guided the education of the flowers of the motherland.
However, no matter how much people talk about it, the box office of "A Perfect World" continues to rise.
After taking in 16.3 million on Monday, it earned 17.8 million at the box office on Tuesday's half-price day.
On Wednesday, "The Tomb Raider" and "The Storm 2" were released. After the half-price day, the box office inevitably declined, with a single day revenue of 15.5 million.
On the first day, "The Tomb Raider" and "The Storm 2" respectively earned 7.3 million and 4.4 million with 20% of the film schedule.
"2012" finally experienced a sharp decline in its fifth week of release. It only received 5 million at the box office in three days, and the box office plummeted.
However, the total box office also exceeded 400 million, becoming the third film in mainland film history to achieve a box office of over 400 million.
"Three Shots" was released on Thursday. With 37%, it was also the highest-ranking film of the day, and it took 16 million at the box office.
After the box office exceeds 250 million, the cinema can get two more points, so they have no choice but to schedule more movies.
After three blockbusters were released in "A Perfect World", only 30% of the film schedule is left.
However, the box office is still strong, and movie theaters will not let go of any blockbuster movie.
14.6 million, this is the answer of "A Perfect World" under the attack of three blockbusters. It is perfect, and the attendance rate is still the highest among many movies in the Lunar New Year festival.
The 20% film schedule of "The Tomb Raider" and "The Storm 2" only lasted for one day, and were ruthlessly reduced to 15% and 13%, with box office receipts of 7.704.6 million respectively.
Whether it is the king Aaron Kwok or the king of music Jay Chou, they will inevitably become cannon fodder during this Lunar New Year period.
As for "2012", less than 4% of the film schedule is left, and the single-day box office can only maintain around one million.
"Three Shots", Guoshi's new film released three years ago, surpassed the box office hit "A Perfect World" upon its release and became the top daily box office hit.
In the following three-day weekend, "Three Guns" once again topped the daily box office for three consecutive days with a box office of 63 million, and the box office in the four days of its first weekend reached 79 million.
Although it surpassed "A Perfect World", anyone with a discerning eye can see at a glance that at this level, not to mention the huge gap in reputation between the two movies, the box office is not at the same level at all.
"Perfect World" benefited from the expansion of public opinion. Whether they were education professionals or not, and had children or not, they all came to chime in and join in the fun.
It received 56.6 million in the three days of the weekend, and a total of 120.8 million was received in the entire seven days of the second week.
Although it lost the daily box office championship, it still won the Zhou crown.
Including four days last week and eleven days after its release, "A Perfect World" has a total box office of 220.9 million, with an average of over 20 million in a single day.
On the 15th, a new Monday, "Three Guns" dropped more than 50% due to polarized word-of-mouth, with only 9.3 million in a single day.
As for "Perfect World", its potential has not been fully digested due to the continued development of word-of-mouth and the lack of sufficient film schedule last week.
In the third week, it still maintained a 40% decline. After 1810 last Sunday, it still received 10.8 million on Monday.
It has exceeded 10 million in a single day for 12 consecutive days, knocking "Three Guns" off the top spot at the daily box office.
Considering the data of three rival blockbusters, it is not an exaggeration to say that "A Perfect World" swept the Lunar New Year festival!
