Chapter 211

~11 min read 2,015 words

“……”

“……”

Seeing someone take the lead, the audience who hadn’t bought tickets started making a scene.

The ticket-collecting young lady was terrified.

She hurriedly had someone call the manager.

When the manager came out and saw so many people, he was also taken aback.

However, he was an old hand, so he quickly showed everyone the sold-out data.

He said:

“Everyone, we are definitely not lying. Look, there are ten halls for the next session, a total of 1,800 tickets, and not a single one is left.”

“Are there any other halls?”

“No~!”

Seeing this, there was nothing they could do, and the manager quickly added.

“Although there are no more, you can……”

The manager hinted to everyone, pointing at the people nearby who were watching the show.

“Movie tickets aren’t ID cards… right, everyone?”

Hearing this, many smart people understood immediately and hurriedly walked toward the waiting area nearby.

“Little brother, selling your ticket?”

“What?”

“……”

“Manager.” The young lady asked hurriedly when she saw this situation.

“Are we breaking the rules by doing this? What if someone reports us for selling scalper tickets?”

“That’s right, manager, if we get caught, we’ll be fined.”

Several staff members reminded him hurriedly.

The manager curled his lips.

“What are you afraid of? We aren’t participating. Just get a megaphone later and remind them not to get scammed.”

“It’s only for a few days, no need to be afraid.”

“Otherwise, it’ll be even worse if this group of people starts making a scene.”

The staff members thought it made sense; anyway, it was only for a few days, so it wasn’t a big problem.

And the ticket grabbing would only last these two days.

This happened in many well-located cinemas in China, but they were helpless; the tickets were gone.

You figure it out.

Many audience members had no choice but to go back online and curse the cinema chain.

……

On the other side, Qin Yu was taking Liu Yifei and others on a roadshow in Shanghai.

“Alright, thank you everyone, thank you.”

“Director Qin, don’t leave yet, sing another one.”

“That’s right, Director Qin, do it with Xixi.”

“Director Qin, I’ll pay extra, one more song.”

“……”

“……”

In the cinema, the audience was incredibly excited; they were already pleasantly surprised after watching the movie.

They didn’t expect to be chosen for the roadshow.

Happiness doubled.

More than two hundred audience members rushed forward, which terrified the cinema owner. If something happened to Qin Yu, he couldn’t afford to pay even if he died.

He hurriedly went outside to call for security.

“Alright, everyone, we’ll meet again if fate allows, bye-bye.”

After saying that, Qin Yu hurriedly grabbed Liu Yifei and ran; Huang Xiaoming and Li Bingbing and the others didn’t react slowly either.

They hurriedly followed and ran.

It wasn’t until they reached the lounge that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Before anyone could speak, the cinema owner walked in, wiped his sweat, and said.

“Director Qin, I’m really sorry, the cinema’s preparations weren’t done well.”

“Please accept this.”

The owner hurriedly handed over several gift boxes; one look and it was clear these things were worth a fortune.

The cinema owner wasn’t stupid.

Although these things cost a lot of money, it would be a huge loss if Qin Yu didn’t come to his cinema next time.

Every time Qin Yu did a roadshow, he could come here.

Soon the cinema would become famous; anyway, the distances were about the same, what if they could run into a Qin Yu roadshow?

Once this habit was formed, wouldn’t the cinema’s business be booming?

“No need, it’s fine.”

“Director Qin, please just accept it, they’re just little things, not worth much.”

“Otherwise, I won’t feel right.”

“……”

Huang Xiaoming and the others looked at Qin Yu, you decide.

“Alright then, thank you, Boss Wang.”

“Good, good~”

Hearing this, the cinema owner was overjoyed and wanted to invite everyone to dinner, but Qin Yu refused.

Keep it at that.

……

“Director Qin, they’re quite generous.” Huang Xiaoming weighed the gold chain in his hand.

“This thing is at least seventy or eighty grams, worth tens of thousands.”

Everyone opened the boxes and smiled; it was true.

Hundreds of thousands just like that.

No wonder he could open a cinema in this area; he had deep pockets.

“Alright, are you guys lacking this little bit?”

Qin Yu stuffed the gift boxes directly into Liu Yifei’s arms.

……………………

PS: Second update, a bit slow, one more update in an hour.

Nearly twenty thousand words updated in a day, brothers who like it, please support, thank you.

205: Nazha’s little thoughts, first-day box office released, record broken, a crazy era is coming!

Everyone present was worth tens of millions, and many were worth hundreds of millions.

“Let’s go, be careful when we go to Pudong tomorrow, don’t let anything actually happen.”

“That’s true~”

Several people nodded; honestly, they didn’t expect it to be this explosive.

The fans were crazy.

After resting for a while, they all returned to the hotel together.

They ate a little something.

Everyone went back to rest for two hours and then ran back to Qin Yu’s place.

The first-day box office was about to be released. ===== CHAPTER 389 =====

The first-day box office results are coming out.

Yesterday’s midnight box office already exceeded twenty million, this first-day box office~ they couldn’t even imagine.

Watching it together was the most fun.

Qin Yu had no choice; he was planning to go to Liu Shishi’s place.

The hotel wasn’t far from Liu Shishi’s residential area, but he didn’t expect this group of guys to come again.

He could only say sorry to Liu Shishi.

On the other side.

Liu Shishi’s home.

“Sister Shishi, what’s wrong with you?”

Nazha looked at Liu Shishi, who seemed a bit disappointed, and asked.

“Nothing, how is your acting study going recently?”

Liu Shishi put down her phone and asked with a smile.

She had originally prepared to send Nazha away; her little lover was coming.

She didn’t expect someone to cause trouble.

She couldn’t watch it in her room, really.

However, Liu Shishi also understood; when they were running the roadshow for *Now You See Me* before, they also liked to run to Qin Yu’s room.

“It’s okay, but Sister Cai said I still need to work harder, the last movie’s response was average.”

Nazha was a little disappointed.

She originally thought that with her good conditions and beauty, she could be as popular as her fellow townsman Reba when she debuted.

But it had been over a year.

And she was still lukewarm.

She couldn’t even be considered slightly famous.

Nazha looked at Liu Shishi, full of envy.

“Sister Shishi, I really envy you, you were so popular as soon as you debuted, and you participated in *Now You See Me*, you even became famous abroad.”

“That’s not really abroad, just took a trip around.”

Liu Shishi smiled.

“If you really want to talk about being popular, it’s *The Matrix*.”

Nazha nodded; she ran to Liu Shishi’s place whenever she had nothing to do, actually wanting to use Liu Shishi’s connections.

To see if she could get a role in Qin Yu’s movie.

Of course, Nazha didn’t understand these things, but someone did; Cai Yinong had told Nazha privately.

If you really want to become famous overnight, you can build a good relationship with Liu Shishi.

Later……

After working hard for a few months, the relationship between the two was pretty good.

It was just that her skin was still very thin, and Nazha didn’t know how to bring it up.

“Yeah, Sister Shishi, you and Director Qin……”

Seeing Nazha’s curious look, Liu Shishi also blushed a little.

“Don’t mention that guy, I got on his pirate ship back then and couldn’t get off. Nazha, remember in the future, you can’t trust men who are handsome and can talk sweet.”

Liu Shishi had also let it go.

Thinking that in a couple of years she would ask Qin Yu for a child, and as for the rest, she’d take it one step at a time.

She wanted to control him, but she didn’t have the energy.

And whenever she brought this up, Qin Yu would use actions to leave her speechless.

Thinking about it, forget it.

Anyway, men are all fickle, they’re all about the same.

At least Qin Yu is handsome and treats her very well.

“Then Director Qin is too much, he didn’t choose you for the female lead this time, *The Matrix* midnight box office was over twenty million.”

“The first-day box office is about to be released, maybe it can really break the record.”

“That’s not his fault.” Liu Shishi waved her hand.

“I couldn’t play this role either, it’s too hard, lucky for that stinky woman.”

“Then let’s wait a bit longer, how about we watch the first-day box office before resting.”

“Okay.”

The two women curled up on the bed, Liu Shishi brought the computer over, and the two of them chased dramas while waiting for the box office to be released.

Meanwhile.

In the hotel living room, Huang Bo, Zhang Jin, and others were also discussing non-stop.

“Did you guys see? Damn, the sunglasses, trench coats, and leather jackets from our *The Matrix* are selling like crazy online.”

“……”

“Saw it early, damn it, these profiteers have really sharp noses.”

Huang Bo complained and turned to look at Qin Yu.

“Director Qin, you should manage this; these guys are clearly taking advantage of you.”

“That’s right, Qin Yu.”

“……”

Several people turned to look at Qin Yu, feeling a bit angry.

“What can I do?” Qin Yu spread his hands.

“If I report them, they’ll just close the shop and open another one immediately. It costs them nothing. It’s useless.”

Qin Yu rolled his eyes; he naturally knew about this.

But there was no way around it; the environment in China was like this, piracy was rampant, and it would be better in a few years.

Right now, it was completely useless.

Let alone you, Qin Yu, being a big director, even if the Third Master came, it would be useless.

Copyright is used at will.

You want to bite me?

“As long as these guys don’t leak the HD version of *The Matrix* within twenty days, the rest doesn’t matter.”

Hearing this, everyone sighed.

That’s right.

No way around it.

*The Matrix* was considered good, with China Film and Tencent watching behind the scenes.

It was hard for movie resources to leak out.

This was already considered very good.

Some movies had HD versions online in less than ten days after release, so what’s the point of going to the cinema?

“Oh, forget it, don’t talk about these unhappy things. How much do you think our first-day box office will be? Can it break the single-day box office record of 61 million set by *Avatar*?”

“It should be possible, I heard the tickets sold very well today, 3D scalper tickets have even appeared.”

“Indeed, I saw many people selling 3D tickets online, the cinema chains are being cursed out.”

“……”

Liu Yifei, who was sitting next to Qin Yu, was also very curious and nudged Qin Yu to ask.

“Hey, Qin Yu, can it really break the single-day box office record?”

“It shouldn’t be a problem.”

Seeing this, Liu Yifei smiled so hard her gums showed; this was a movie she starred in.

And she had a lot of screen time, and the character setting was quite brilliant.

After returning to the hotel yesterday.

She covered herself with a quilt at night and looked at the Weibo fans praising her, laughing for a long time.

She didn’t fall asleep until dawn.

“What are you laughing at?” Qin Yu took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and pinched Liu Yifei’s butt.

“You forgot our agreement, if the box office breaks the record, you’ll have to become a little young married woman.” ===== CHAPTER 390 =====
