Social media is buzzing about Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology buying 1,000 tickets for the movie Southern Forest and asking students to watch it. If any student goes to watch it, they will get 2 training points. If any student doesn’t go, their points will be deducted.
Speaking with VietNamNet, Mr. Nguyen Quoc Anh, Vice Principal of Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology, said that buying 1,000 tickets for the movie Dat Rung Phuong Nam is part of the learning activities of the Film Appreciation course, Faculty of Communication and Design.
According to the plan, on October 20, the Faculty of Communication and Design will organize for students of the Multimedia Communication major to watch this movie at the cinema. This is a learning activity that helps students have a real experience of the theater space through a new movie.

According to Mr. Quoc Anh, the school focuses on practical training and regularly has practical experience programs in the curriculum.
"Specifically, in September 2023, we also let students experience watching the movie "Past lives" or previously watched the movie "Flip side 6: The fateful ticket" and interacted with Ly Hai's film crew. In addition, students majoring in Multimedia Communications also brought their graduation project film product to the theater for screening."
Regarding the information that students who do not go to see the movie Dat Rung Phuong Nam will have their practice points deducted, while students who go will get points added, Mr. Quoc Anh affirmed that this is not correct. Watching movies and experiencing the theater space are the rights of students in the curriculum, students do not have to pay for tickets, and the school does not require participation.
Students who do not attend the movie will lose their benefits but will not be affected in terms of academic or training points. On the other hand, this activity is only for students of the Media major and when students go to the movie, lecturers will have professional instructions for them.
Regarding the controversial purchase of 1,000 tickets for a movie for students, the Vice Principal of Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology affirmed that the school has no comment on this matter. According to the school representative, this is a new and invested movie, so the school creates conditions for students to watch and gain experience in the field of media.
