Chapter 511
And the witch also noticed Da Gu's gaze, waving her hand and shouting:
"It's over for today, move aside, move aside~."
In the disappointed eyes of the children, the mysterious old witch pushed the lollipop cart and quickly disappeared into the shadows of the street.
And Da Gu, seeing this, hurriedly chased after her.
Panic and darkness, only the scattered moonlight served as minimal visibility.
Two figures chased each other one after the other.
Teacher Lu Zhong's sharp laughter echoed in the audience's ears.
Let alone children, even adult viewers couldn't help but shiver.
Zhang Xiaoming, who was forced by his mom to attend this cram school, couldn't help but shiver, looking at the classmates around him who showed the same expression.
And secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Fortunately, there are many people here.
If he had watched this episode alone, he would definitely be too scared to sleep tonight.
However, these children who were completely immersed in the plot, with an average age of about 10, didn't notice at all.
The cram school teacher was already standing on the podium.
And their parents were also standing at the classroom door with black lines on their faces, each one on the verge of a volcanic eruption.
Zhang Xiaoming's mom was the first one who couldn't hold back, walked up with big strides, and was ready to pull her son's ear like before and lecture him properly.
"What did you do to that child?"
Just when Zhang Mom's hand was less than half a meter away from her son, Xu Feng's scolding voice suddenly sounded from the phone.
"I took away all his dreams."
The witch played by Teacher Lu Zhong sneered constantly, showing both disdain and madness.
So much so that even Xu Feng, who was locked in a transparent round cover, felt a bit overshadowed.
"No! Give his dreams back to him! That child's dreams belong only to himself!"
I don't know if it was an explosion of acting skills or if he put himself into it, but Xu Feng's emotions were particularly intense when he shouted these lines.
Even the parents standing at the door, who like Zhang Mom had been wearing stern faces until just now, heard this shout from Da Gu.
"Mom, did you also take away my dreams?"
At this time, Zhang Xiaoming turned his head and asked curiously, blinking his eyes.
As soon as this was said, Zhang Mom's hand that was reaching toward her son froze in mid-air.
For a time, it was neither extending nor retracting.
The witch continued to sneer shamelessly:
"Children don't need dreams; before they grow up, they just need to be like dolls and toys, and be manipulated by others!"
Teacher Lu Zhong also had an explosion of acting skills, her tone full of contempt, indifference, and arrogance.
Very much like some parents of this era.
And the parents standing at the door of the cram school at this moment, the expressions on their faces changed from previous anger to dullness, and a few traces of self-reproach overflowed in their eyes.
Children don't need dreams.
Hearing this sentence, the thought of opposition instinctively surged in their minds.
However, the next sentence "before they grow up, they just need to be manipulated by others" was like a big hand, slapping them hard on the face.
This, what is going on?
They clearly opposed the witch's point of view.
How could children not need dreams?
However, the four words "manipulated by others" sounded particularly harsh to them.
Because, this seems to be exactly what they have been doing!
"I don't want adults' dreams; eating adults' dreams will only ruin my stomach, hahahaha!"
The witch's sharp sneer sounded again, as if a heavy hammer had smashed into the chests of the parents that had already cracked.
And when the plot progressed to this point, the number of bullet comments was like a volcanic eruption, filling the playback page.
[Theme sublimation per episode 1/1]
[This line is too perfect, satirizing that adults' dreams are too dirty.]
[It's not satire, it's a direct face-to-face output. Xu Feng is really thankful; isn't he afraid that Tiga will be reported and taken down by parents?]
[Damn it, whoever dares to touch Tiga, I'll take their life!]
[Adults' are desires, children's are dreams.]
[Can some parents see it?]
[Don't think about it, they are selectively blind.]
"Students, that class bell has already..."
Just at this moment, the teacher who had been standing on the podium for several minutes finally couldn't help but speak.
After all, there are so many parents watching behind, these are all gods of wealth; he didn't dare to do any corporal punishment like those teachers in normal schools.
He thought that parents would definitely stop it when they saw such a scene.
But I don't know what happened, why do these parents all seem to be staring at their phones and being autistic?
"... Teacher, please wait a moment."
A middle-aged man with a wide body and fat figure raised his hand to stop him, and then focused his gaze on the phone screen between his son's hands.
The man knew that his son didn't want to come to this math class.
But in his view, it's already hard to make money with a liberal arts degree, so he forced his son here.
As for the child's feelings?
He considered that he had never thought about these things.
However, just a moment ago, Xu Feng's "a child's dreams belong only to himself" and Lu Zhong's "before they grow up, they just need to be manipulated by others" were the two lines.
Like two sharp knives, they were fiercely inserted into the position called "conscience" in his chest.
It was the next day that these poor kids in the cram school watched the fourth episode.
More than ten hours have passed since the premiere last night.
The hot searches and press releases triggered by the latest episode of "Ultraman Tiga" have long been flying all over the internet.
#Xu Feng challenges sensitive topics again, satirizing the current state of education in the Dragon Kingdom single-handedly?#
#Give his dreams back to him! That child's dreams belong only to himself#
#Lines from the latest episode of "Ultraman Tiga" spark heated discussion#
#Over a million online comments, seeing the shadows of their own parents in the witch#
And among them, there is no lack of big Vs choosing to speak out.
This includes the fairy tale king Zheng Yuanjie who writes "children's literature."
[To be honest, Director Xu's previous works are a bit difficult to understand for people of my age, but I have been watching Tiga since the first episode. I am very happy that there are still creators who tell the truth. I wish Director Xu can write more such stories. If there were no people like Director Xu speaking out for children, I don't know how many children would be suffering from this kind of abusive educational destruction by some parents.]
For such a person, Xu Feng backhanded... a like.
By the way, a commercial mutual praise:
[I just don't want to become a rabbit.]
Seeing this reply, Zheng Yuanjie also smiled knowingly; it was obvious he got the meme.
It refers to his famous dark fairy tale, "Pipi Lu Tames the Rabbit."
However, Zheng Yuanjie felt that Xu Feng's story of "Ultraman Tiga" was still a bit too "great, glorious, and correct," and could reveal some of the cruelty of reality.
Thinking of this, Zheng Yuanjie couldn't help but send Xu Feng a private message, indicating that there was an opportunity to cooperate.
Xu Feng was startled and directly declined.
Damn, can the things you write pass the review? Don't you have any self-awareness?
PS: Zheng Yuanjie is really awesome; his stories are the kind that you've read once, and the impression is so deep that you still remember it fresh after many years.
