Chapter 106: "Dying to Survive" is a Box Office Hit! (Bonus Chapter, Please Subscribe)

"After selling medicine for so many years, I've discovered that there's only one disease in this world: poverty."

"forget it."

When the fake drug dealers came to Cheng Yong to ask for money, they expressed this sentiment.

This made the already heartbroken audience even more emotional.

They all took out their phones and recorded the conversation.

Many people even posted about it on social media platforms like WeChat Moments.

Soon, acquaintances and netizens alike became curious.

What movie is this?

"Is it 'Dying to Survive'?"

"Wow, that's the truth!"

“Let me tell you this: Michael Schumacher, one of the greatest F1 drivers in the world, fell into a long coma after a skiing accident. During the nine years he was unconscious, his wife spent nearly £220 million to wake him up. If it weren’t for that money, do you think he would have lived to see the next morning?”

"I need to book tickets, these lines are so hurtful!"

And in the movie theater.

Wan Ting was heartbroken.

If I had had more money back then, perhaps my mother wouldn't have felt like a burden on the family, and she wouldn't have committed suicide by jumping into the river.

Thinking of this, she burst into tears.

This completely baffled Ah Wei.

He didn't know how to comfort him for a moment.

All I could do was take out tissues and keep wiping away her tears.

As the plot unfolds...

The police eventually found out that Cheng Yong and his gang were selling counterfeit drugs.

The moment the truck crashed into the blond-haired man's van, screams erupted in the theater.

"what!"

"Oh my god!"

"do not want!"

Everyone is worried that the character Huang Mao might die.

Although Huang Mao didn't talk much throughout the entire film, he was kind-hearted.

Previously, he had listened to Cheng Yong's advice and bought a ticket, planning to go home to visit his family.

This time, it was all to save Cheng Yong and distract the police.

Are all such good people going to leave?
Murder and set fire to the gold belt, repair the bridge and repair the road without corpses.

Good people die young, while bad people live to be a hundred.

When the camera turned to the hospital morgue, everyone was even more heartbroken.

"Alas, the rope always breaks at its thinnest point, and misfortune always finds those who are unfortunate."

"There's no other way. If he doesn't distract the police, Cheng Yong will probably be arrested."

"Poor child, if he hadn't gotten sick, he might have studied hard."

"Yes, she's so young, it's really pitiful."

As we all know, the final outcome was as follows.

In accordance with the style of domestic films.

Bad people must be brought to justice.

So Cheng Yong was arrested.

On the screen, the roadsides were lined with patients who had been helped by Cheng Yong.

They all stared at Cheng Yong in the police car.

With the utmost respect.

In a daze, Cheng Yong seemed to see Lao Lü and Huang Mao.

Although he couldn't save them, he saved others.

It can be considered a kind of redemption.

Finally, a few lines of text appeared in the darkness.

[The defendant, Cheng Yong, was sentenced to five years in prison. This case attracted great attention from government departments, resulting in Cheng Yong receiving a reduced sentence and early release. The government continued to promote medical system reform, leading to effective treatment for a large number of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.]

In 2002, the survival rate for chronic myeloid leukemia was approximately 30%.

In 2018, the survival rate for chronic myeloid leukemia was approximately 85%.

[This film is based on a true story, but in reality, the protagonist, Lu Yong, did not profit from it and was ultimately acquitted!]

A bang!
The lights in the entire theater came on.

This is the end.

The movie ends.

Everyone was somewhat dazed.

Immediately afterwards, the audience in the theater erupted in thunderous applause.

This surprised some viewers.

Due to the reserved nature of Chinese people, they rarely applaud and express their gratitude after a movie, unlike foreigners.

But this time, perhaps it was something that truly resonated with them.

They spontaneously applauded in the theater.

After watching the movie, Wanting cried her eyes out.

Ah Wei quickly stepped forward to comfort him.

"Awei, I want to go home and visit my mother's grave. Can you help me ask for leave?" Wan Ting said, her voice choked with emotion.

Ah Wei naturally nodded and said, "Okay, okay."

And so, Wan Ting left.

Ah Wei was somewhat lost in thought.

After he left the theater.

At the entrance of the cinema, there was also a middle-aged man crying uncontrollably.

He was sitting in the corner, wiping away tears and sobbing loudly: "Back then, I didn't have any money, and she just left like that. She died of cancer. At that time, I was short 100,000 yuan for the treatment, which would have saved her. Now I have 100,000 yuan, but she's gone."

She's gone!

The surrounding audience members also expressed their sympathy after hearing this.

One of the guys stepped forward and silently lit a cigarette for him.

Many people went to search for the real-life story behind the incident after leaving the theater.

"Oh, so the real-life prototype was a factory owner who suffered from leukemia. He went abroad to bring back medicine and also helped other patients bring back medicine. Later, he was arrested."

"But he never made a single penny from the other patients. He only charged the price of the medicine, without taking any compensation for his trouble or travel expenses. He's such a good person!" "If the movie hadn't specifically included that line at the end, I wouldn't have known."

"Yes, we don't know either."

And this moment.

Song Hao at home.

Seeing that [Lu Yong] immediately became a trending topic.

That's somewhat reassuring.

Actually, this passage, "[This film is based on a true story, but in reality, the protagonist Lu Yong did not profit from it and was ultimately acquitted!]", was not in the original film.

It was Song Hao who added it specifically this time.

Because the real-life Lu Yong's original intention was always to save people.

They have never made any profit.

He is not a businessman.

He is a true god of medicine.

Therefore, Song Hao felt it was necessary to add this passage.

It must be added!

Just then, the system issued a task.

This surprised Song Hao.

He thought the system wouldn't issue tasks based on the scenario this time.

[Mission: Release a film with a rating of 8.5 or higher! Break your own box office record! You will then receive Christopher Nolan's visual style and a Silver Treasure Chest*1]

"Nolan's visual style."

Song Hao was also surprised.

When talking about director Christopher Nolan, people will definitely think of his films, such as The Dark Knight, Inception, and Interstellar.

His unconventional narrative style and visually sophisticated approach have led to the creation of numerous classic works.

Moreover, Nolan's films are not only highly artistic, but also commercially successful.

Memento and Inception earned him Oscar nominations for Best Original Screenplay and Best Director.

The Dark Knight became the first film in 97 years to gross over $5 million at the North American box office.

Interstellar offers a different perspective on physics and art.

If I could acquire Nolan's visual style, it would be of great help in making science fiction films in the future.

As for what kind of science fiction films he will make in the future, he doesn't know yet.

However, this task should be completed.

Based on the positive reception of "Dying to Survive," achieving a 9.0 rating shouldn't be difficult.

Surpassing its own box office record wouldn't be a problem.

soon.

As more and more people watched, "Dying to Survive" became a hot topic and trending topic.

Many self-media bloggers have also begun to analyze this movie.

Free Bird is the number one fan.

Previously, it was hinted that Song Hao's "Dying to Survive" might not achieve the same success as "Operation Mekong".

but now.

He posted a video saying: "I've been proven wrong. 'Dying to Survive' is probably the best movie of the year. Of course, that's assuming Director Song doesn't make any more movies. Otherwise, I might even be looking forward to his next film being the best."

[In this film, I saw humanity. Lü Shouyi said he didn't want to die initially because of his son; the moment he saw him, he didn't want to die anymore. His last look before he passed away was also of his son. He didn't want to die because his son brought him hope; he wanted to die again because he didn't want to drag his family down and leave his wife and son without hope for the future.]

Old Lu lived for hope, and died for hope. He didn't know that as long as he lived, he was hope for his wife. This film truly showcases humanity in every aspect.

In this video, many people are commenting:

"Given the chance, who wouldn't want to live?"

"When I was in college, I went to the hospital for a checkup. As I came out of the examination room, I saw a woman in her thirties squatting on the floor, clutching her stomach and wailing. 'What am I going to do! Where am I going to get so much money?!'"

"There is only one disease in this world: poverty."

"Poverty is the original sin."

"Thanks to the country, these medicines have been included in the medical insurance program."

"Sigh, thank goodness for the country, otherwise it would be really miserable for us poor folks to get sick."

"My mother recently had surgery, which cost over 30,000 yuan, and 75% of it was reimbursed."

People who watched this movie were immersed in the plot all night.

They discussed it in group chats and shared it in forums.

However, this is a real hardship for netizens who didn't see the movie.

"Luckily, I bought movie tickets for tomorrow!"

"Haha, I want to go see it!"

"I heard it made me cry so much I didn't dare go to see it; I have low tear ducts."

While everyone was discussing it, director Jiang Wenwu directly praised it on Weibo: "[I think Director Song's 'Dying to Survive' is the best movie of the year. It made me cry.]"

This Weibo post immediately sparked heated discussion.

It's worth noting that Jiang Wenwu has always been unconventional in the entertainment industry.

He even felt that there was no director in the industry whose work he admired.

In the past six months, Song Hao is the only one he has praised.

Now, he has gone so far as to say that "Dying to Survive" is the best movie of the year.

This puts "One Second," which was released at the same time, in an awkward position.

Then someone commented below: "Director Jiang, what about Director Zhang's 'One Second'?"

Jiang Wenwu replied: [Haha, haven't seen it yet, but "Dying to Survive" is my number one.]

This "high EQ" reply earned everyone's praise.

They gave Director Zhang plenty of face.

[My number one], it's almost like I'm directly saying that Director Zhang's movies can't compare.

Indeed, this is reflected in the box office results.

First day box office:

"Dying to Survive" grossed 3.01 million yuan at the box office.

"One Second" grossed 0.5 million yuan at the box office.

Many of them specifically bought tickets for "One Second" and then went to the next theater to watch "Dying to Survive".

"Dying to Survive" was a huge hit.
