Chapter 154
It took Yu Cheng a long time to calm his emotions.
This film... was much better than he had imagined!
The visuals were exquisite, the special effects realistic, and the interstellar future background was set up more brilliantly than many science fiction films.
Most importantly, the plot was very interesting.
The absurd world, the intersection of reality and fantasy, the O. Henry-style ending, and the ideological core behind it all were worthy of deep thought.

"However, I need to sort through the plot..." Yu Cheng pondered.
He understood most of the plot, especially the twist at the end, which elevated the entire story, directly transforming it from a suspense film into an absurdist film with profound connotations.

Yet some details still puzzled him. He had vague answers in his mind but couldn't connect them.
Yu Cheng returned to the forum. By now, the post about "The Invisible Artist" had grown to several hundred floors.
Several students, like him, had gone to see the original film. They left their opinions in the post, building it into a high-rise.
Yu Cheng scrolled to the floor published by the original poster, intending to read the content analysis.

[Original Poster Fish Who Loves Eating Fish:]
[Brief summary of the film plot (contains major spoilers, enter at your own risk!)]
[When I first started watching "The Invisible Artist," I thought it was a detective film.
Female star Xu Jia was the main culprit, stirring up trouble in the entertainment circle, making everyone crazy about her.

Her image on screen was perfect, like an angel fallen to earth; but in reality, she was a demon crawling out of hell.
She encouraged fans to be madly infatuated with her, even to commit suicide for her; she deliberately created public opinion, making the entire interstellar world concerned about her every move; meanwhile, she also taunted the police, deceiving and tricking everyone.
Ẇ е̃b́ ṅ ӧvе l Еnŭ mа
At that time, I even suspected that Xu Jia was seeking revenge.
She wanted to take this distorted, crazy, entertainment-to-death society down with her.
But the film's ending was completely unexpected.
—Yes, Xu Jia doesn't exist in this world at all!
She was just a virtual face randomly generated by AI.
The film's timeline is quite chaotic, with the director frequently using flashbacks, interjections, and even flashbacks within flashbacks.

Therefore, I'll work backward from the film's ending to reconstruct the entire plot line.
Simply put, the story is set in an interstellar society where information is highly developed, people increasingly pursue pleasure and excitement, and entertainment stars have become the most attention-grabbing profession.
A technology university student obsessed with artificial intelligence technology—Ke Qing—randomly generated a virtual face through AI during an experiment.
Her roommate discovered these photos, was attracted by one of them, and posted it online after taking a picture.
From this point, rumors spread uncontrollably.
A netizen made up the star's name and casually invented a representative work.
Ẅ е b̆ ṅ о̂v̌è l̀ Е n u ḿa
Later, someone created a related encyclopedia entry about her, adding detailed information.
She gradually gained fans. Media outlets following the trend used AI technology to forge movie and TV show clips, making the lies about her more complete.

As Xu Jia became more famous, a fat man registered an account, falsely claiming to be her agent; others claimed to be Xu Jia's ex-boyfriends, and even some celebrities claimed to have collaborated with Xu Jia...
The farce grew larger, and fans madly infatuated with Xu Jia committed suicide for her, completely becoming the fuse that ignited everything.
With the police investigation, everything was finally revealed.
Xu Jia was just a virtual character existing in lies.
Е̄ n̆u m.а̇
Whether it was fans committing suicide for her or netizens going crazy for her, all their arguments—were centered around a ridiculous lie.
How ironic.]
After reading the entire article, Yu Cheng was thoughtful.
"The plot is similar to my understanding. It seems this film is really strong..." he couldn't help but exclaim. "How did it only get a 4.9 rating?"

With a heart full of questions, Yu Cheng logged into Douban's comment section and went directly to the negative reviews.
[User Cat Not Cute: Rating 2 stars]

[The plot line is too chaotic, the shots switch too quickly. I don't understand why the director used this kind of camera language. One moment it's a financial fraud case, the next it becomes a thriller. One moment it's a dreamlike fantasy, the next chaotic reality... I'm giving 2 stars because the film's special effects were well-crafted; otherwise, it wouldn't even deserve 1 star.]
[User Drinking Iron Juice: Rating 1 star]
[I don't understand, if Xu Jia is just an AI-generated face, how did she manage to stir up trouble in the entertainment circle before? How could she possibly taunt the police, and how could she release videos to guide the public, making things increasingly complicated? Ridiculous!]
[User 000: Rating 1 star]
[Torture throughout! The camera language is inconsistent, the plot deliberately mystifying, and the later twist makes the earlier perspectives chaotic. Going to see this film during the Spring Festival is like getting your head caught in a door.]
[User Moon Face Filling: Rating 1 star]

[Disappointed, the later twist is too forced, too many plot holes, feels like it can't come full circle.]
[User Star Sigh: Rating 1 star]
[The connections between plot points have an awkwardly isolated feeling. The protagonist Xu Jia is portrayed particularly strangely, changing with each appearance. It's like being formed from many fragments pieced together.]
[User Page Command: Rating 2 stars]
[It looks full of sophistication, but upon closer inspection, it's nothing. Many random subplots inserted in the middle—the agent's, the bestie's, the fake boyfriend's... but these stories have no connection to the main plot line. I was falling asleep watching it.]
Yu Cheng read through them one by one carefully.
Е̂ ň u̇ ḿ а̃
Some negative reviews were truly unreasonable; you could tell the reviewer hadn't understood the film at all.
However, many negative reviews had valid points and weren't just randomly given.

People questioned several aspects.
First, the chaotic timeline, making it incomprehensible; second, the plot was too exaggerated, the twist too extreme, unreasonable; third, Xu Jia's image was too varied, too fragmented; finally, many supporting characters' storylines were inserted for no reason, making no sense.
"No wonder there are so many negative reviews..." Yu Cheng murmured.
However, he didn't agree with the views in these comments.
W̃ е̊b̄ ň о v́ ẽ l̄ Еn u m̃ а̄
After organizing his thoughts, he reopened "The Invisible Artist" and continued watching.
For a film like this, it was indeed difficult to understand the concept after just one viewing.
He needed to watch it multiple times to gain a deeper understanding of the core of this story.

Deep night, the moonlight clear as water.
By now, discussions had spread across the forum, with many students having finished watching the film and enthusiastically discussing it.

Undoubtedly, "The Invisible Artist" was an excellent film. Anyone with some professional knowledge would recognize its artistic value.
[How could this possibly be rated only 4.9? Douban ratings are too ridiculous; I suspect they simply didn't understand it!]
[That's not it; there are many positive reviews on Douban as well, some even calling this film a "masterpiece"... unfortunately, the majority gave negative reviews.]
[The timeline is indeed a bit chaotic, with various flashbacks and interjections, but I believe this is precisely the characteristic of this type of film!]
[Indeed, the plot is absurdist. The large amount of impressionist filming, bizarre and dazzling scenes, and illusory imagination all push this "sense of absurdity" to the extreme.]
[I personally can't accept this filming style; it's too chaotic. However, the absurdist story and its ideological core attract me greatly. This is an excellent work.]

By now, Yu Cheng had watched this film three times.
He sat at his computer, typed the last word of his document, and then clicked the left mouse button—
Post to the forum!
User Cheng Yu: "The previous commenters have analyzed the plot pretty thoroughly, so I'll add a few interesting points."
"First, why did so many people participate in fabricating Xu Jia's experiences, forging her into a living person? Isn't this plot too exaggerated and absurd?
Е n̂.u.m̈ ӑ . і̄ d́
The answer is no.
From the story, we can infer that in this entertainment-to-death era, Xu Jia is not an isolated case.
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
Besides Xu Jia, there are thousands upon thousands of stars who truly exist. Every day they are subjected to rumors and fabricated information. Their educational backgrounds, birthdays, even past experiences could all be false.
People didn't know Xu Jia was fake, so upon seeing this star, they began fabricating stories about her just as they normally would.
Xu Jia is an 'invisible' star; she is 'unreal.'
Then, are those stars who exist in real life absolutely 'real'?
Еǹ ûm а̌ . і ḋ
I personally believe there are thousands of Xu Jias in this world. They are all just fabricated characters."
"Second, why does Xu Jia's image give people a sense of fragmentation, as if she has multiple personalities?
The reason is simple: Xu Jia is just a phantom existing in people's minds. Each person imagines Xu Jia differently, so her image varies.
During the police investigation, 'Xu Jia' appeared multiple times.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The new film trailer was forged by someone aiming to profit. Here, Xu Jia gives people a sense of purpose.
The person who hacked into the police officer's light-computer and taunted him was a fan madly in love with Xu Jia.
Е̄ nū mа . î d́
Here, Xu Jia adopts a high-handed, mocking posture, as if she's a deity of the world.
Even the netizen who claimed to have encountered 'Xu Jia' had actually mistaken someone else for her.
Therefore, in his eyes, Xu Jia was cute, playful, and heart-stirring."
"Third, why insert many supporting characters' stories into the plot?
Because these people collectively shaped Xu Jia, and they collectively constructed this absurd world.
Human nature inherently tends toward pleasure-seeking and excitement. Business caters to these instincts, amplifying this pursuit of pleasure.

The media with false reports, crazy fans, bystanders eager for gossip, keyboard warriors expressing opinions freely, those riding the trend... they collectively form this entertainment-to-death society.
Therefore, the supporting characters' stories are essential, because the core of each story is interconnected—
That is, we will ultimately be destroyed by what we love."

After Yu Cheng posted this, new replies quickly appeared below.
[Holy crap, a big shot has appeared!]

[So that's how it is. I didn't understand some of the plot either; now I finally get it.]
[This analysis is very interesting. What seems like an absurd story is actually reflecting reality, isn't it?]

[No wonder Xu Jia's character design gave me a fragmented feeling. I just want to say now: incredible.]
[Exactly, Xu Jia's image is the finishing touch of the entire film. She is what we love, and at the same time, what destroys us...]
[May I timidly ask, who is the actress who played Xu Jia? While creating character contrasts, she also maintained a delicate balance! It's acting skill beyond what we can hope to match.]

This night was quite lively for some students at B University.
Everyone eagerly posted analyses of "The Invisible Artist," with the floor count rising higher and higher, even attracting the attention of many professional film critics.
Some took screenshots of these comments and posted them on other social media platforms.
The film had already been pulled from theaters, so people didn't need to buy tickets; they could watch it for free on their computers.

Therefore, more and more people noticed this film and joined the discussion.
The comments section still contained negative reviews, with some feeling the film had too many plot holes and logical inconsistencies. But at the same time, the proportion of positive reviews continued to climb.
