I heard their names last year, but I thought it was fake, just stars hyping and promoting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This year, my daughter said so, and I checked *Counterattack* online and looked at the information of the two leads, only to find that it was actually all true!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another parent said: \"Hey, what's there to doubt? Both of them posted their admission notices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were fake, who would dare to post the notice? Tsinghua and Peking University would be the first to fight the fake, and netizens wouldn't let them go either!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other parents also participated, constantly praising Jin Li and Gu Cheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How can these two people be so powerful? Being a star so well, and going to the college entrance examination can also be admitted to Tsinghua and Peking University. If my child could be so powerful, it would be great.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I came here this time specifically to see how the movie was filmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I heard that this movie has a love line. My child just entered high school, and I don't want her to be influenced by the movie and go to talk about love.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I'll watch it first, and if I feel there's no problem, I'll let her watch it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm different.

the movie tickets for the first three days were sold out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The film industry in Hong Kong has been declining more and more in recent years, and only police and gangster films can carry the box office market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this type of film can also have a bottom-line result in the mainland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This led to many crews in Hong Kong filming police and gangster films, but because the frequency of production is too high, the viewing population is gradually saturated, and they are not interested after watching too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So even very powerful police and gangster films have begun to become depressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The film industry in Hong Kong is also actively looking for a way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, introducing Jin Li's *Counterattack* was one thing, the Chen family's bridging, and the Chen family still has some connections in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another thing is that this type of film is rare in the Hong Kong market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The film industry introduced it, also wanting to see if this film could run in Hong Kong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the box office results are good, perhaps they can also try to support this type of drama.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Youth campus, they may not be able to film it very well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But inspirational struggle, this is completely no problem!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Kong TV dramas have many workplace films, completely grasping \"inspirational struggle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Director Xu's three trailers...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, when they were first released, the influence in Hong Kong was not great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trending searches in the mainland were flying all over the sky, while Hong Kong residents were busy making money and had no time to browse the internet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But on the day *Counterattack* was released, this film still achieved unprecedented heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is because the Chen family used their connections to let some stars come to watch!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So in Hong Kong, the reason *Counterattack*'s heat could be hyped up was entirely driven by old-school stars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The media reported on this one after another, which made many Hong Kong people think that this drama was very popular and the reputation was also very good, so they walked into the cinema to watch it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after watching it, although this drama was a bit different from what many people imagined, everyone also appreciated it from the bottom of their hearts, thinking it was an excellent work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Counterattack* vividly depicted the youth of boys and girls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their youth was not only books, but also many friends and partners, thinking about self-growth, parents' guidance...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These small details, instead, made this drama break away from the routine and stylized struggle, becoming shining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In cinemas in dozens of Southeast Asian countries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, the crowd was surging, and everyone came for Jin Li's drama.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some people didn't grab tickets, and they would rather sneak in, stand in the aisle of the screening hall, and squeeze together to watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is estimated that even Jin Li and Dawn Entertainment did not expect that Jin Li's influence abroad is actually huge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the foundation laid during the Pink Girl period.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of the re-redness, it awakened some people's previous memories, and then through word of mouth, many younger generations also know this star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus the foundation laid by the global release of *Dawn*, the international praise and optimism for this film made Jin Li already have the posture of becoming a global superstar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least in these Southeast Asian countries, Jin Li is very recognized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li can be internationally recognized, so they feel that Jin Li is a big star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the cinema, there were conversations from time to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the music was loud enough, so many discussions didn't matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So their classroom is like this, the things they use are very clean, and Jin Li can drink milk every day!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do they have to read so many books every day? I envy that the place is so spacious and bright!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I could read books every day and have such a good environment, I would definitely read to death! This is actually heaven!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who is this? I have some impression, looks quite handsome.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the first day of the global release of *Counterattack*, every netizen who watched it gave good reviews on the internet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Actually, I came for their love line. After watching it, I only felt that the director is very good at filming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the love line between the two is not obvious, but the director managed to film a little bit of care between the young boys and girls. This is a very subtle feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two don't have a mature love line, but it was filmed with a very youthful feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I think Gu Zimo's willingness to help Jin Xiaoli is out of the friendship of neighbors for many years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if his feeling for Jin Xiaoli is average, if Jin Xiaoli is willing to work hard, Gu Zimo will also give help.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I also came for the love line. Although it was not what I thought after watching it, it fits my fantasy about youth]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I came for the friendship line from the passerby's perspective. When I watched the trailer, I felt that the editing of this part was very funny.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now after watching it, it is indeed so. Director Xu is quite good at filming characters. Under his lens, everyone has shining points, and he doesn't highlight the concept of \"absolute protagonist,\" and didn't let all good things gather on the male and female leads]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[When watching this movie, the next-door screening hall was playing a tragedy. The two groups of audiences entered almost at the same time, and the two movie screenings were only 5 minutes apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So this led to the two groups of audiences leaving almost at the same time. Guess what happened?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the movie ended, the audience next door came out, and everyone's eyes were red from crying, and some people were even sobbing, holding tissues in their hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after the *Counterattack* audience came out, everyone laughed loudly, mentally happy, and made appointments with friends to watch it a second or third time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Comparing the two scenes, I still feel very funny thinking about it now. That group of people who were crying looked at us who were laughing loudly, and they cried even more sadly~]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li brushed this comment and couldn't help but be happy, feeling sorry for the audience watching the tragedy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is quite sad, the whole world seems to be only them crying, and everyone else is laughing~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The evaluation after the first day of release was overall good!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Counterattack* handed in a satisfactory answer sheet to all the audiences who were looking forward to it! \u003C\u002Fp>",2644,"2026-06-15T03:50:02.582Z","2026-06-18T03:46:55.665Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","3fec948aeb4109bd5c85d9a0e271ef4fb77e7f679a0169f08a380dee957c3698","i-became-a-viral-sensation-in-the-entertainment--chapter-695","i-became-a-viral-sensation-in-the-entertainment--chapter-693",794,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-became-famous-by-burning-incense-cover.jpg"]
