Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 787 We must not discriminate against Chinese rural dogs!
The audience's hearts were on edge.

Until Parker collapsed off the stage, the ball in his hand rolled to the side.

For a moment, everything seemed to stand still, and the audience couldn't help but shed tears.

"What will happen to Hachi! Oh, poor thing!"

"I'm about to cry, my eyes are so sore!"

"He was still holding Hachiko's ball in his hand when he died!"

"Parker has such a good family, how are they going to face this in the future!"

"His daughter was about to give birth, but he left! Parker was such a good man!"

"..."

After that, Xiaoba moved to her daughter's and her husband's home.

But Hachi was never happy because Parker would never again play with the ball and say to it, "Great job, Hachi! Good buddy!"

The daughter noticed Xiao Ba's emotions and whispered, "I miss him too! I miss him every day!"

Xiao Ba's eyes were fixed on the doorway. Suddenly, he stood up and rushed towards the door.

It's time to pick up Parker from get off work...

“We all love you, Hachiko! We hope you stay! If you want to go, that’s fine with you too! Okay!” the daughter said, her eyes brimming with tears.

Little Eight listened obediently, and when his daughter opened the door, he licked her hand and glanced back as he left.

The sound of sobbing echoed throughout the theater.

Chen Tiesheng wiped away his tears and said with emotion, "When I first heard the story of Hachiko, I couldn't stop crying!"

Zhou Yang was struck by the realization that only excellent films can truly move people's hearts.

Where did Xiao Ba go?

He remained waiting on the platform beside the flowerbed, hoping that Parker would emerge from the train station.

Every day, hot dog vendors, coffee shop customers, and station staff—all sorts of people—witnessed Hachi's perseverance.

The tree behind Hachi has witnessed countless years passing from its first sprout to its last leaves.

Hachiko gradually transformed from a young, handsome dog into a hobbling, filthy old dog.

He waited here for a full ten years...

Seeing this scene, all the audience members were moved to tears.

His wife, with her short hair, stepped off the train and gazed at the city filled with memories.

As she walked along, the vendors at the station still greeted her, remembering that she was Mrs. Vison.

She went to commemorate Parker, and as the scene gradually darkened, the audience couldn't stop the tears from flowing.

The scene changes, and Hachiko walks slowly down the street, having long lost his former vitality.

People on the street all knew him and would greet him as they passed by, but he still insisted on waiting for Parker to get off work by the flower bed...

Ten years later, when his wife saw Hachiman again, she was shocked to find him still sitting in the same spot waiting for Parker.

This scene brought tears to the eyes of the audience.

His wife was incredulous. She rushed forward, her eyes filled with tears, and called out, "Hachiko?! You'll get sick! Are you waiting for him?"

Xiao Ba seemed dazed, but still gently licked its owner's hand.

Deeply moved, Hachiko's wife hugged him tightly and exclaimed, "Good boy!"

Hot dog vendors, train station attendants, and coffee shop customers couldn't help but shed tears.

That night, Hachiko, worried that Parker might return, went to the train station again along the train tracks.

He is old and his movements are becoming increasingly difficult.

Gradually, he bent down and watched the passengers walk out of the carriage.

Xiao Ba slowly closed his eyes, and it seemed that in that instant, he saw the train finally arrive.

Parker was calling to him, "Hey, kid! Come on, let's hurry!"

Young Parker and Hachi ran together to play in the fields...

Just then, the platform door opened, and Hachiko looked up instantly. In this snowy night, Parker had returned.

He ran to Parker, who stroked Hachi's head, kissed his forehead, and said gently, "Good boy!" Hachi closed his eyes completely...

Cinemas across the country erupted in enthusiastic applause.

"I'm so touched! Waaah..." Tears streamed down everyone's face, and many people cried uncontrollably.

"Hachiko waited for a full 10 years! Waaaaah!"

"When I saw Brother Yang pass away, I couldn't stop crying! His acting was just too amazing!"

"How could such a happy family become like this? Hachiman got Parker, didn't he?

"Yang Ge and Xiao Ba's performance was so wonderful, I almost cried, sob sob..."

"I want to watch it again! It's so good!"

"I want to see it a third time too!"

The audience was deeply saddened.

After you left, I will spend the rest of my life remembering and waiting. The dog may have been just a part of your life, but it regarded you as its whole life.

After parting ways with Chen Tiesheng, Zhou Yang drove home.

Meanwhile, viewers shared their feelings on Weibo.

"Hachiko, the loyal dog for ten years, waaaaah!"

"My eyes hurt while watching the movie, and I kept crying. I couldn't stop crying from the middle onwards!"

"The scene of Parker's death made me cry!"

"The scene of Hachiko's death at the end was so touching, I couldn't stop crying!"

"After watching the movie, I realized that all those tearjerkers before were child's play. This one really brought tears to my eyes!"

"..."

Many netizens shared their opinions after seeing these comments.

"Is it really that good? What's the story about?"

"It was absolutely fantastic! I think it's the best pet movie I've ever seen!"

"Highly recommended! Although it left me feeling quite sad, I still want to watch it again!"

"Is 'Hachiko' the story of Hachiko?"

"Not entirely, but you'll understand once you see it!"

"..."

The audience was deeply moved and recommended the film on platforms such as WeChat Moments and Zhihu.

"#The best pet movie, Parker and Hachiko!#"

"#Hachi: A Dog's Tale is so touching! Buy me tickets, I want to see it again!"

"#Relatives and friends, you absolutely must see 'Hachi: A Dog's Tale'!"

"#Watched Zhou Yang's new movie today, perfect score 100!#"

"..."

The next morning, the official Douban rating for "8 Dogs" was announced, and it was a whopping 9.5 points!
Even some excellent science fiction films struggle to achieve such a high score!
Even more surprisingly, it has a 9.0 rating on IMDb!!!

Meanwhile, the response from abroad has also been enthusiastic.

"Zhou's acting is absolutely impeccable! Hachiko is so well-behaved! What breed is that?"

"Chinese rural dogs are incredibly loyal!"

"Friend, I have to get a dog like that, it's so cool!"

"I didn't hold back my tears! Zhou's movies will definitely not disappoint me!"

"I started crying the moment Parker died! Dude, I'm not a crybaby!"

"..."

Such high ratings and positive feedback have convinced viewers who haven't yet bought tickets to finally go to the cinema.

One day later, the opening day box office results for "8 Dogs" were finally revealed.

The film grossed $7000 million worldwide on its opening day!
For an animal-themed movie, this is an absolutely remarkable achievement!
