(Nezha 2) is incredibly popular. As of this morning, the box office has exceeded 12 billion.
(Nezha 2) Why is it liked by so many people?
It reflects the current era, where we live in the cracks of the old and new, and together with Nezha, we see that this world is just a huge makeshift stage.
The sense of disillusionment and fragmentation in the Nezha movie resonates with our current feelings of fragmentation and awareness.
The deeper metaphor of the film has been triple-validated in the social observations of the Spring Festival:
First, professionals are starting to break free from performance tyranny, and younger generations are shifting from the 'grind mode' to the 'long-term perspective' philosophy.
Second, educational anxiety is gradually dissipating; 985 doctoral advisors acknowledge the failure of experience and choose to let their children explore a new world; third, the middle-aged female group has collectively awakened, shifting from transforming others to self-healing. These three aspects point to a structural change in social psychology - from external discipline to internal awakening.
