MTL - Low Key Star-Chapter 330 【330】Do you have cash on you?

  Chapter 330 [330] Do you have any cash on you?

   "Let the Bullets Fly" got off to a good start, and the box office on the first day of its release finally reached 28 million, second only to the Hollywood blockbuster "Deep Sea Shark" with 31 million.

  Although many people who have watched the two movies commented on "Let the Bullets Fly" crush "Deep Sea Shark", the label and box office appeal of "Hollywood" are the accumulation of commercial blockbusters.

  The reason why "Let the Bullets Fly" can basically tie with "Deep Sea Shark" on the first day is largely due to the popularity of Zhang Yang, Zhou Zifu, and Chang Yu.

Although Zhang Yang set foot in the film circle for the first time, in terms of the box office appeal of this film, he is probably still higher than the two movie kings, and Zhou Zifu is higher than Chang Yu, just the opposite of the coffee position, mainly because of Chang Yu The "Actor" was obtained earlier, there were many movies made, and there were also bad movies, and the appeal had already been exchanged for money.

   Zhou Zifu cherishes feathers relatively, and everyone is willing to support them, while Zhang Yang—from music to novels, even to games, at least so far, "Zhang Yang's products must be high-quality goods" can be called a gold-lettered signboard.

  Over the years, there have been many films that rely on word-of-mouth to counterattack, but in general, publicity is still more important. After the popularization of the mobile Internet, word-of-mouth spreads faster, and the probability of good films being buried is lower.

At the end of the first day of broadcasting, "Let the Bullets Fly" scored 9.3, while "Deep Sea Shark" scored only 6.5. Most people commented that the plot is too ridiculous and illogical, but the special effects and graphics are still top-notch in the world level.

  The next morning, the box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" began to overtake, from 28 million on the first day to 41 million, and "Deep Sea Shark" could barely exceed 40 million.

In the evening, the gap between the two sides further widened. "Let the Bullets Fly" broke 80 million at the box office, with an increase of 52 million in a single day; "Deep Sea Shark" 55 million, with an increase of only 2,000 four million.

These two days are weekends, and the number of viewers is relatively large. As usual, the box office growth should slow down after entering the working day. However, in fact, the single-day box office increase of "Let the Bullets Fly" reached 5,600 on Monday. One million, higher than yesterday, and the total box office reached 130 million.

   Interpretations about the ending and metaphors of the film have also become popular all over the Internet. Many people who don’t pay attention to movies are influenced by the Internet and friends around them, and they are also eager to try it, and feel that it is necessary to go to the cinema.

Bai Jie is one of them. As a programmer without a girlfriend, his daily life consists of going to work, working overtime, leaving get off work, going to work... and so on. On rest days, he either works overtime, sleeps at home, plays games, and occasionally Colleagues gather for a dinner, or are urged to get married by parents.

   I also watch movies, but I don’t want to accompany my girlfriend. Naturally, I don’t need to go to the cinema to watch it by myself. The money is all bought by my own sleep and hair, so I have to save! If you don't save money to buy a house, why should you find a girlfriend?

Ever since Zhang Yang replied to his private message last time, after the schedule of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" was changed, he truly recognized the "idol" who was younger than himself from the bottom of his heart. I see, when I have free time on weekdays, I will play League of Legends with my colleagues and former classmates...

  I heard about the movie, and I didn’t intend to watch it at first. I heard several colleagues discuss it at work, and many people recommended and shared clips on the Internet, so I moved my mind.

Because I said before that "I never go to the cinema to watch movies", Bai Jie didn't feel embarrassed to find a colleague, so he used his mobile phone to book Friday night tickets after get off work. The best viewing area of ​​the show has already been booked out.

   This made him feel more at ease: the movie ticket should be more valuable, and it won't be wasted!

  He chose a seat next to the best viewing area in the middle, paid the money, and checked online how to collect and check tickets, so as not to make jokes when he got there.

  Fortunately, there was no unannounced overtime. On Friday, he left work after a half-hour delay. He ate casually in the cafeteria downstairs of the company, and instead of going back, he took the subway directly to the cinema.

   When he arrived at the theater, there was still half an hour before the opening, so he sat and played with his mobile phone, and continued to brush up the discussion of "Let the Bullets Fly".

  Anyway, everyone will discuss the plot after watching it. It sounds very brain-intensive, so you don’t have to worry about spoilers, so as not to waste money if you don’t understand it.

   "There is a seat here, let's sit here."

  There was a girl's voice next to him, Bai Jie looked up inadvertently, and saw two girls each holding a cup of milk tea, and one of them was holding popcorn, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

   But she looks pretty.

   He muttered inwardly, then glanced at the other... This one was prettier.

   "It doesn't matter how beautiful I am..."

  He muttered secretly again, and continued to guess what the movie was going to express based on online discussions, while two girls were chattering beside him.

   "Hey, Bai Zhi, have you read the comments on the Internet?"

   "No, I'm afraid of spoilers, have you read it?"

   "Well, I read a little... I don't understand it."

"what?"

  The conversation between the two girls was heard. Bai Jie was attracted by the word "Baizhi", and then looked up at the beautiful girl. It was rare to see someone with the same surname.

  But maybe it is called "Bai Zhi", not the surname Bai.

   "Just look at what they said is so complicated."

   "Just look good."

   "That should be pretty good, and now the box office is more than one billion... It seems to be almost two billion?"

   "Is it that tall?"

  When "Let the Bullets Fly" was released last week, Bai Zhi had already planned to watch it, but in the end, she had to work overtime and put it off until today.

   "Did your mother urge you again yesterday?"

   "That's right, I just feel that it will soon become tofu."

   "I'm a year older than you."

   "You and your boyfriend have been talking for a long time, aren't you getting married?"

   "Wait a little longer."

  Bai Jie sounded like he was talking about being urged to marry. He really wanted to say something about sympathy, but he didn't have the courage, so he swiped his phone boredly and listened secretly.

  Two of the three talked and listened to each other, and soon began to check the tickets. Bai Jie followed the two beautiful girls into Hall 8, and found that it was a coincidence that the beautiful girl who might also be named Bai was actually sitting next to him.

   "It's kind of fate..."

  Bai Jie thought that her surname might also be Bai, and she was seated next to her, and she was also urged to marry...mainly because of her good looks...for a while, her heart beat faster.

  Before the movie started, he took his mobile phone first, and was going to send a message to a colleague who had a richer love history in his impression, but after typing, he felt a little embarrassed to ask such superficial words at a lot of age, so he deleted it.

  A movie advertisement was playing on the screen, but Bai Jie's mind was no longer on the movie.

   It doesn’t matter what the movie is, it’s worth the fare if you can get the girl’s contact information... But how do you want the contact information? How embarrassing would it be if people didn't give it?

  Amidst the entanglement and apprehension, the theater went dark, and someone whispered, "It's started."

   "Outside the long pavilion, beside the ancient road, there are green grass and green sky..."

  The melodious and melodious singing came, and Bai Jie looked up casually while struggling with how to find the girl for her contact information.

  Eating hot pot and singing, Zhang Mazi appeared on the stage, the county magistrate pretended to be a master, watched his daughter-in-law hook up with Zhang Mazi, entered the county, the bandits clashed with bullies...

   "Wow...that line is amazing!"

   "Well done!"

   "Yes, yes, yes!"

   "Hahaha, how funny!"

   "Did Zhang Yang write this about himself?"

   "I heard people say that this seems to be Zhang Yang's own autobiography."

   "Has the third child gone bad?"

   "I've heard people say it's a metaphor for corruption after a successful struggle..."

   "Is Zhang Mazi chasing after and killing the third child?"

  …

Unknowingly, the movie ended, the lights came on, and the audience left one after another. The two girls next to them held unfinished milk tea and unfinished popcorn to signal to go first, and Bai Jie came back to his senses like a dream .

   "Damn it! It doesn't matter what the good movie is, it's the girl that matters..."

  Bai Jie was a little dazed, for a moment he didn't know whether to let her go, or if he met her on a narrow road and went all out, asking her to hand over her number...

   "Excuse me, let me pass."

  Bai Zhi saw the guy next door staring stupidly, and said a little funny.

   "Oh, sorry, sorry."

  Bai Jie once again understood the reason why he was single until now. He obviously wanted to find someone to get in touch with, but when he saw his eyes, he couldn't help being cowardly, and immediately stood up to make room for him.

  Bai Zhi and Zhou Li didn't care, they took their things and left. Bai Jie looked at his back eagerly, and quickly got up and chased after him.

  Following all the way out of the theater, Bai Jie thought that it would be more embarrassing to follow along like this, and it would be bad if there was a misunderstanding again, so he gritted his teeth and walked over quickly.

The slim backs of the two girls were getting closer and closer, and he was about to speak. He opened his mouth, took a deep breath, then stopped, watched the two figures go away, and let out a long breath. Compared with striking up a conversation, it is easier to be single.

  It feels good to relax the whole body, but I can't help but glance at the figure, and suddenly feel the emptiness and loneliness gushing from the bottom of my heart...

"Oh shit!"

   He gritted his teeth again, took out the courage he had accumulated in nearly thirty years of being single, and trotted after him. The two girls were standing in front of a dessert shop, hesitating whether to go in.

"that…"

Bai Jie followed to the side and finally spoke. After finishing speaking, he stood there dryly for a long time. The two girls didn't hear him at all. Instead, they seemed to be about to enter the dessert shop. Breathing a sigh of relief, I wanted to turn around and leave quietly.

This thought flashed in his mind, and Bai Jie hesitated for three full seconds on this important issue related to the fate of his second half of his life. He had the illusion of time stagnation, and then he gritted his teeth and took out the great courage to block the happiness of half his life and walked away past.

"Beauty!"

  Because I learned the lesson just now, I yelled loudly this time, not only the two girls in front, but many people nearby turned their heads to look over.

Bai Zhi and Zhou Li turned their heads at the same time, looked at the person behind them, their expressions were a bit puzzled, Bai Jie felt his face was a little hot, and his mind seemed a little blank, but he still tried his best to maintain his composure, and said, "Uh...that...you have a lot of troubles on your face. Do you have cash?"
