Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 713 Am I becoming an old man?

Zhou Yang frowned, finding it hard to understand why he was called an "old man" when he wasn't even as old as Xiao Zhan.
Meanwhile, the debate surrounding "The Legend of Shushan" intensified online, with most netizens supporting the film and a minority being fans of Xiao Zhan.

An online poll even sparked a comparison between the two films, and the results showed that the two works had very close support rates.

A week later, Zhou Yang promoted "Zhu Xian" on Weibo and uploaded selfies taken during filming.

"#Actor Zhou Yang: The upcoming movie 'The Legend of Zu' is coming soon! As such a handsome actor, everyone must want to see what I look like! Please give me your support! Being suspended by wires is really not easy! (with pictures)#"

Netizens responded enthusiastically, with comments and likes flooding in.

"The handsome guy is here! You've worked so hard! Don't forget to get some rest!"

"I will definitely support Brother Yang's movie! Today's selfie is really touching!"

"Thumbs up! Another new wallpaper! Yang is so nice, but there are too few photos of him!"

"My brother Yang is handsome and doesn't talk much! I'll definitely watch 'The Legend of Zu', the trailer looks amazing!"

"You absolutely can't miss Yang Ge's movies! You'll regret it if you do! Good movies don't wait for anyone!"

"Wow, Brother Yang is so cool! Being suspended by wires must be tough, we definitely have to rent out the whole theater to support him!"

"..."

Zhou Yang's Weibo post ignited the enthusiasm of movie fans and netizens, with comments and reposts once exceeding one million.

At the same time, Xiao Zhan also posted a promotional Weibo post on social media.

"#Xiao Zhan: 'Jade Dynasty' will definitely satisfy everyone! This is a work of sincerity! Unlike some hastily produced movies! I will go all out with the wire work! Please support us!#"

Xiao Zhan's Weibo post immediately sparked heated discussions, with the comment section filled with various veiled criticisms and comparisons.

"Hey, after reading Yang Ge's Weibo, I see yours too. It's really unpleasant!"

"Zhan Zhan is absolutely right! Any work needs time to stand the test of time; just talking about it is useless!"

"Brother Xiao Zhan is really dedicated! Being suspended by wires must be really tough, he's so professional!"

"Sigh, some people really don't deserve to be compared to Zhan Zhan, an outdated old man!"

"Wow! I definitely have to support 'Jade Dynasty', the trailer is amazing!"

"As a bystander, I can practically smell the gunpowder. This is a veiled attack on Zhou Yang, isn't it? The newcomers these days are truly astonishing!"

"That's amazing! How dare they be so arrogant? They're such a newbie, they're overconfident!"

"..."

Xiao Zhan's Weibo comment section is filled with all sorts of opinions, including those from casual observers, his fans, and Zhou Yang's supporters.

But the data here is quite remarkable, with the number of comments and reposts easily exceeding 100 million!
No one could believe this was a newcomer's Weibo account!

Xiao Zhan's fans were even more smug, flocking to Zhou Yang's Weibo to provoke him, their attitude was truly exasperating.

"Wow! An old man is indeed an old man! This industry needs newcomers, Xiao Zhan has a bright future!"

"Zhou Yang is past his prime. In this era where data speaks for itself, what does this tell us?"

"Haha, that's hilarious! Zhou Yang is so outdated, Zhan Zhan is the one with potential!"

"Tsk tsk, the number of reposts and comments on Weibo is less than a fraction of Xiao Zhan's, so why are you being so stubborn?"

"This is ridiculous! A bunch of people are actually trying to smear my brother Yang! Do you think you can even do anything about it? Bah!"

"..."

However, the public has sharp eyes, and Zhou Yang's fans immediately noticed the problem. Coupled with the controversy surrounding Xiao Zhan's fans, they certainly couldn't ignore it.

"Haha! You really make a big deal out of small things! That's hilarious! I really admire you!"

"The data generated by these online trolls is absolutely hilarious! If it were me, I would have hidden somewhere by now! (Just kidding)"

"Wow! A newbie fan can attract so much negativity, they won't last long!" "Holy crap! Based on my experience, this data is definitely inflated! It's all the work of paid trolls!"

"Oh my god! Xiao Zhan is so handsome! Pshaw! What nonsense about paid trolls (50 cents per post, paid trolls are too expensive!)"

"Hahaha, the person upstairs is hilarious! I'm dying of laughter! You're really awesome, bro, remember to recommend me to your clients if you ever get any business!"

"..."

The online debate has split into two parts, causing the two films to gain increasing popularity and often being compared due to their simultaneous release.

The movie has finally arrived amidst much anticipation from the audience!
After speaking with Zhang Baizhi, Zhou Yang drove to pick her up.

Ten minutes later, Zhang Baizhi appeared in Zhou Yang's sight wearing a white dress with lotus leaf sleeves.

It has to be said that Zhang Baizhi knows how to showcase her strengths and exudes a youthful charm.

Zhou Yang glanced at it a few more times, which made Zhang Baizhi giggle.

Not long after, the two arrived at the movie theater.

With just over ten minutes to go before the movie premiere, Zhou Yang went to the automatic ticket machine to collect his ticket.

The cinema was packed with people today; the 12 o'clock premiere attracted a large audience.

Groups of people gathered together, laughing and chatting.

"What are you looking at? You're still a little hesitant!"

"It's definitely 'Zhu Xian'! Xiao Zhan is incredibly handsome! And he's been super popular lately!"

"Actually, I'd rather watch 'The Legend of Zu Mountain.' Sigh, I really like Brother Yang!"

"Looking forward to Xiao Zhan's performance! He's so handsome! He's a perfect fit for the role! The trailer is great too!"

"Of course we're going to see 'Zhu Xian'! Need I say more? It's so good!"

"I will still choose Zhou Yang! He is absolutely reliable! His movies are all great! Absolutely fantastic!"

"..."

Zhou Yang didn't take these comments to heart. After getting his tickets, he went to wait with Zhang Baizhi.

Soon it was time to check tickets and enter the cinema. Zhou Yang took Zhang Baizhi's hand, afraid that she would get lost in the crowded throng.

Zhang Baizhi's cheeks flushed instantly; after all, she was only 18 years old, in the prime of her youth.

As the crowd moved, Zhou Yang entered the cinema and looked around, finding it packed with audience members; almost every seat was taken.

Everyone remained quiet, occasionally exchanging a few words in hushed tones.

Five minutes later, the movie started!

The film is titled "The Legend of Shushan"!
The opening credits gradually appeared, displaying the words "Huayang Film and Television Media".

At the beginning of the film, the color tone of the scene is dark, as if it has a sense of mystery. The mist is swirling and the white clouds are surrounding the mountains, which makes people feel the grandeur.

This opening scene immediately gave the audience a glimpse into the film's unique style, as if they were in a fairyland.

"Wow! This feels so right! It really is a fantasy movie! It's so ethereal! It's amazing!"

"As expected of Brother Yang's work! Fantastic! Look at the image quality! Absolutely worth it!"

"A true master's skill is immediately apparent! Absolutely fantastic! I love Brother Yang!"

"It's so beautiful! Absolutely gorgeous! It has a unique charm! It's ethereal!"

"I'm even more excited for what's to come! It feels amazing! It's definitely a Yang Ge movie!"

"..."
