After the iPhone press conference, Sony's distribution department was surprised to find a huge change in the situation, and Foday went to the headquarters again to cry and make trouble, and the leadership of the distribution department finally gritted their teeth and increased the distribution fee, doubling the number of screens for "Life Remote Control......

In this week, taking advantage of the popularity of the iPhone, the box office of "Life Remote Control" reached its peak, with a score of 49.89 million, which has surpassed the sum of the previous three weeks, and overwhelmed "Silent Hill", "Screaming 4" and "Ice Age 2" to win the box office list in one fell swoop~~!

You know, it's just a C-grade movie with an average cost and a measly few million dollars in distribution costs......

And under this fashionable trend, countless people who have watched "Life Remote Control" have been moved by the plot of the movie itself, and have expressed their feelings on the Internet, because they can't post "advertorials" on their own columns, the famous film critic Roger Ebert can only leave a message on his own Borg and comment:

"This is a surprising movie, I think it's incredible that at such a young age as Li Xiaole, he can shoot such a philosophical story, although I can't say how first-class the shooting level is, but this director from China has a completely different narrative technique from American directors, full of oriental elegance and wisdom, which completely infected me, this is my work since "Forrest Gump", I laughed and cried in the process of watching it again......

Netizens expressed themselves more directly, and George Dieng, who works at Walmart Supermarket, directly left a message on the official website with a long list of question marks:

"After watching "Life Remote Control", I began to question what is the meaning of life? What am I busy doing every day? Money!? What do I want money for? To live better!? I already have money, weishenme I'm still so hard? To get more money!? What do you want more money for? Fill my desires!? Is there an end to my desires? No! Am I going to live my whole life for a blind desire? What's the difference between this and Mike in the movie pressing fast forward to death~~!? I just want my family!! ”

A large number of fans who have seen this movie have begun to turn into "fans, and have already handed in their own evaluation questionnaires on IMDB and other places, and as of May 2, 12.890 users have participated in the rating, and the main page score is as high as 8.2, which is the highest among this year's movies."

Those touching shots and iPhone clips have been shared by countless people, and the combination of social effects and movies has made many adults who don't watch comedy much enter the cinema one after another, and then fall for this "Life Remote Control" and admire it.

Netizen Gera Houston posted on Facebook: "This is a comedy movie that puts Hollywood to shame, and in today's unnutritious spoof comedy like "Scream 4", I'm very happy to see a comedy full of sincerity." This statement also represents a significant portion of old-school movie fans born in the 70s.

But what is very interesting is that when the popularity of this movie burned to the whole United States, although many people liked it very much, because of the overly sad fifteen-minute scenes in it, it was also disgusted by a large number of professionals and mainstream fans.

Rotten Tomatoes has included 125 film reviews, 60 fresh and 65 rotten, with an average freshness rating of 3 by popular film critics. 0 out of 5.

The comments are that a lot of criticism is blunt, saying that this comedy makes people feel uncomfortable watching it.

"This movie is so disappointing, I've never watched a comedy so low, as if I've been wasting my time in my life!!" Walter Elsa, a one-star user, was also angry in his writings, writing:

"I'm busy with work all day, and in my free time I like to watch comedies to spice things up, but I didn't expect to see a heartbreaking story...... I don't know if the director wanted to surprise me, but it was just a disaster for me, and I wanted to be in the scene of my parents dying all night......"

"It's a deception! How can a tragic movie be labeled as a comedy! I don't want to watch these movies that lament my life at all, I pay to go to the cinema because I want to laugh! User Brian angrily slapped a sporadic and wrote:

"I'm really convinced by the disgusting propaganda of the recent fake fan wave of iphone + "Life Remote Control", and now many people are saying how great it is, touching, philosophical, and shocking...... But so what!! I don't watch comedy movies to be uncomfortable, he hurt me! ”

Old-school nostalgic fans and mainstream fans grasped the meaning of the so-called comedy and began endless debates, and the evaluation of "Life Remote Control" began to appear a serious two-tier trend, of course, no one knows how many of these are actually operated by the Big Six behind the scenes......

And this war is not only limited to the film industry, in the IT industry, Li Xiaole caused more controversy, many media are commenting: "Apple's iPhone, is their efforts to integrate technology and humanities and arts success." ".

Similarly, there are countless people who are sneering at the new product, with Newsweek's Daniel Lyons writing:

"I've never been so disappointed in Steve Jobs, I really don't understand how he could hand over the development of a project to such a kid from China."

This showy person even invited an Asian guy to play "fake Steve Jobs" and "fake Li Xiaole" with him in the online parody show "Artificial Show", hooking shoulders to participate in the sarcastic performance of the press conference, and saying together: "The eight disadvantages of iPhone"

Even Apple's rival Microsoft's Bill Gates couldn't help but laugh in a TV interview:

"I still think that as long as it's a smart product, he should have a stylus and a keyboard, which is the traditional mainstream, and the Chinese designer's idea is very puzzling."

In film critic articles in various film magazines, Li Xiaole was directly described as "Jobs's little lover", and a report in the Los Angeles Times claimed:

"It's so simple and ridiculous that Jobs didn't hesitate to say that his work belonged to the other party in order to make his little Chinese lover famous in one fell swoop, and he also made the iPhone a victim of this unknown so-called 'comedy'."

Then the article listed a series of materials about Li Xiaole and concluded: "Any person with a brain should understand that with Li Xiaole's age and his background without any design education, it is impossible to participate in the high-end technology project of iPhone development. ”

This war of words for the same person in two fields has almost become the hottest topic in the United States in the past week, and no one expected that a young man from China would cause such a big controversy.

At this time, the most popular TV show in the United States, "Oprah Talk Show", also took the opportunity to send an invitation to Li Xiaole, frankly speaking, Li Xiaole was not very happy to go, but there is no need to avoid thinking about many things, since he has become the focus of the media, why bother to be generous to establish his brand image, which also uses the company's development.

So Li Xiaole and his heroes and heroines Scarlett and Matthew flew to Chicago, Illinois, a city that is more beautiful than imagined.

He has never been to the East Coast metropolis, and he knows for the first time that this is the headquarters of Harper's company, which produced the "Oprah talk show", and he always thought it was New York.

For media interviews, Li Xiaole has always been very fond of it, but from a practical point of view, it is very beneficial for him to participate in an Oprah talk show, and now he has been smeared by the media controlled by the five major ones, and the controversy continues, resulting in his public image is very vague, and he may be shaped by the media from an artistic genius at any time to a "little gay who climbs up by an old lover".

If it's just himself, Li Xiaole actually doesn't matter, but after all, he is logged into the United States as an outstanding Chinese director, and now he is like the spokesperson of the Chinese image of "Yao Ming's second" in the eyes of ordinary Americans, he doesn't want to be misled by the media, so that fans between the two countries will be prejudiced, for people of two different cultures, what is more needed is understanding, so he must maintain his image.

Of course, he also has a large part of selfishness, and by the way, he also wants to instill the image of Luen Mei Company for the public, you know, in addition to his "homosexuality", there is also a "Scientology Tom Cruise" in Luen Mei Company, and the outside world sees Luen Mei as a weird concentration camp......

For this trip, Scarlett has always felt very depressed, although her first reaction was to say excitedly: "Can I really participate in the Oprah talk show?" But immediately I fell into a state of sullenness.

Oprah's talk show, the hottest talent show in the United States, although Scarlett is much calmer than her peers, she still fantasizes countless times in her heart that she will appear on this stage, but she never expected that she was the first to appear on this show, and it turned out to be thanks to Li Xiaole's blessing.

This is the first time that in the movie she starred in, no one noticed her, and she still focused on the director behind her, which is very unaccustomed and even more hateful! This director is younger than her!! This hurt her self-esteem. (Actually, Li Xiaole is older than her).

When preparing for the show, everyone was in the only son in a different lounge, reciting the script of the show with peace of mind, Li Xiaole was also in the single small toilet in the lounge, just pulled down the zipper, and it was convenient to prepare, when he heard the door of the back room being pushed open, and a rush of footsteps came from far away, and then he shouted:

"Li ~~~~~!"
