Chapter 1283: Chapter 686: The Era When Reputation is King (Please Subscribe)

New Year’s Day.

In Xia Country, the first day of the New Year during the Spring Festival is a day when people do nothing but enjoy themselves.

And with the development of the entertainment industry, movie theaters on New Year’s Day have become a form of entertainment for many young people, and even middle-aged and elderly people.

So, the Spring Festival period has become one of the two most important release periods for movies during the year.

The other period is naturally the Summer Vacation.

Every year, many big-budget domestic films are officially released in major cinemas across the country during the Spring Festival period, and this year is no exception.

For example, Director Liu Hui’s "Hong Kong Spokesperson" from Xiangjiang.

In past Spring Festival periods, the release of a new Hong Kong film was always a given, and this time, the new Hong Kong film being released is the latest work by Director Liu Hui, who has directed many classic Hong Kong films before, and the actors chosen are many heavyweight, even megastar-level talents.

Such a brand-new, big-production Hong Kong cop and robber film is bound to be very popular.

In addition to Director Liu Hui’s "Hong Kong Spokesperson", Master Zhang, a well-known director from Xia Country, has also joined the fray during this bustling Spring Festival period.

Director Zhang’s new film "National Fortune" has really gathered an all-star cast this time.

This all-star cast doesn’t refer to those so-called traffic celebrity types, but to the stars that Director Zhang has consistently worked with over the years, a true congregation of megastars, attracting much attention.

Then there’s "Happiness on New Year’s Day" by Comedy Paradise, whose humorous drama films have dominated box office charts for years, and audiences often say that if it’s produced by Comedy Paradise, it is bound to be a quality film.

Moreover, this time Comedy Paradise has brought together all of its comedy actors for "Happiness on New Year’s Day", making it extremely competitive in the Spring Festival period.

Finally, there’s the magical epic "Demon Sealing" by Q Entertainment Media, which is touted to have spent nearly ten billion yuan on production and uses a lot of traffic stars; its drawing power remains to be seen.

Today, the movie theater in Mist City Arts and Science University’s campus mall is indeed packed with people.

Many students who stayed at school, like Principal Ding, went to the movies, and naturally, the film they watched was Director Su Yangfan’s sci-fi film "Wandering Earth".

In the biggest IMAX hall, the screening that Ding Yue and his friends were watching was filled up in the blink of an eye.

"Yue, I looked at the schedule on various platforms, and the screening volume for our sci-fi film ’Wandering Earth’ is really low," said Huang Youjie, who was sitting next to Ding Yue, after checking the schedule.

"How much?"

asked Ding Yue.

At that moment, An Yujia replied, "Principal Ding, our ’Wandering Earth’ currently only has about 7.5% of the screenings."

"That little?"

Ding Yue was slightly surprised when he heard this.

Although he was aware that "Wandering Earth" might start with a small number of screenings, he had not expected it to be so few. He had estimated that it would at least be around fifteen percent.

But it turned out to be only around half of his expectations.

"Guess which film has the highest screening volume on New Year’s Day?"

Huang Youjie asked with a smile.

"I guess it should be Master Zhang’s ’National Fortune,’" Director Chen Yilin guessed.

After all, in Chen Yilin’s view, a domestic director like Director Zhang is even known as the national director. "National Fortune" also features a collection of various actors. Hence, Chen Yilin guessed that Director Zhang’s "National Fortune" would have the highest screening volume.

"NO! NO! NO!"

Huang Youjie shook his head.

"Do we even need to guess?"

Ding Yue shrugged his shoulders and said with an indifferent smile, "In the screening distribution on New Year’s Day, it’s usually the capital that dictates the screening status, so it’s definitely ’Demon Sealing’ by Q Entertainment Media that has the highest screening rate."

"Indeed, ’Demon Sealing’ has a screening rate of over thirty percent. It’s outrageous!"

Huang Youjie nodded with a wry smile.

"They at Q Entertainment Media are rich, claiming to have invested ten billion yuan in ’Demon Sealing,’" said Xu Bin.

"Hahaha, ten billion yuan, I bet nine billion were spent on marketing. The advertising for ’Demon Sealing’ has been everywhere. Every time you open any app, you see ads for ’Demon Sealing,’" Huang Youjie joked.

"About that, yeah."

Ding Yue also joined the discussion, but quickly, the film was about to start: "It’s starting, let’s settle down and get ready to watch ’Wandering Earth.’"

After Ding Yue spoke, everyone quieted down.

Before the film started, the whole cinema was abuzz with conversation, but as the film was about to be screened, silence fell.

Because the students at Mist City Arts and Science University all know that when watching a movie, one must watch quietly and civilly.

When the audience saw those stunning shots in the film, they couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.

Especially that one long shot from Earth to the Navigator Space Station, which left countless viewers in awe.

Ding Yue also had not expected that Director Su Yangfan could recreate this long shot so well, and after looking closer, it seemed even more impressive than the original, particularly with the handling of the visuals and the music, which was simply perfect! freēnovelkiss.com
