Although Tran Thanh's "Mai" has lost its box office record, this is not a regrettable thing. On the contrary, this shows the strong development of Vietnamese cinema, when there are more and more quality films attracting audiences.

Many Tran Thanh fans may feel regretful when they know that the movie "Mai" no longer holds the box office record. However, instead of regretting, this is a positive sign for both Tran Thanh and Vietnamese cinema. All records are set to be broken, and the fact that another work surpasses "Mai" does not negate the value of the film, but shows that the Vietnamese cinema market is growing. Audiences are increasingly willing to spend money to watch domestic films, which is a good sign for dedicated filmmakers like Tran Thanh.

The most important thing about a movie is not the revenue, but the impression it leaves on the audience. A good movie will live forever in the audience's emotions, not just because of the hundreds of billions. Money can be measured, but the love of the audience is priceless.

However, it cannot be denied that "Mai" has received many criticisms. The film has high revenue but its quality is controversial, some people think that the audience is too easygoing, some even frankly commented that "the film is bad". "Nine people have ten opinions", Tran Thanh cannot please everyone. However, the audience has the right to speak up because they are the ones who pay for the tickets. The diversity in feedback, if listened to, will be an opportunity for a filmmaker to mature.

The fact that "Red Rain" surpassed "Mai" to become the number one film is not just a change on the chart. It is like a "liberation" for Tran Thanh. When he is no longer bound by the title "box office king", he can freely create without the pressure of maintaining the throne. Perhaps from this silence, Tran Thanh will find a new direction, helping artistic value and audience emotions go hand in hand with revenue.

Looking back at the journey from "Bo Gia" to "Mai", Tran Thanh has proven that he is not only a versatile artist but also a filmmaker with his own way of thinking, knowing how to tell stories that reach the masses. Losing a record is not a failure, but a reminder that there are still many peaks and bigger dreams waiting for him to conquer.

Losing a record is not a failure, but a reminder for Tran Thanh that he still has other peaks to conquer. Revenue records may change, but personal marks and perseverance with art are things that last long. The desire to work and the ability that has been proven through previous films will be a solid foundation for Tran Thanh to continue creating. He will probably spend this time listening more to feedback from the audience, to explore, learn and improve himself, thereby creating works of higher artistic value, surpassing the box office records he has achieved.

So, instead of feeling sorry for Tran Thanh, let's wait and believe that he will break out even stronger in the future. Perhaps from no longer being under pressure to maintain the position of "box office king", Tran Thanh will find the freedom to explore new topics, more unique and surprising ways of telling stories. And who knows, in the not too distant future, the person who breaks the record of "Red Rain" will be Tran Thanh with a passionate film, harmoniously combining commercial elements and artistic values, once again affirming his position in the Vietnamese cinema industry.
