Jiangcheng, Lightspeed Internet Cafe.
When night fell, the popularity of the Internet cafes gradually became more and more prosperous.
Lightspeed Internet Cafe was originally called Lightspeed Internet Cafe, which has been open for more than ten years. Although the operating conditions of the Internet cafe industry are not as good as before, and many Internet cafes have already closed down, relying on the advantages of geographical location and the persistent low-price strategy, this The Internet cafe can still survive.
But in the second half of last year, the district issued a notice to rectify all the small and medium Internet cafes, and the Lightspeed Internet cafe was facing closure. The boss had no choice but to transfer it to others, so as not to lose everything in the end.
After the new boss took over, he took down the business room next door, and used the time of rectification to upgrade and renovate the Internet cafe as a whole, so there is the current Lightspeed Internet Cafe.
The name has only been changed, but it immediately looks a lot taller. Of course, the consumption is not comparable to before. The Internet fee has increased several times, scaring away many old customers who are cash-strapped.
Fortunately, the new boss still knows how to do business, and has continuously introduced a number of preferential measures, such as charging 100 to get 50, and charging 200 to get 150, which still retains many people.
Among the old customers who stayed, Wang Pu was included.
Wang Pu moved here more than a year ago. Although the conditions of the new rental house are better than those of the previous one, the landlord has provided a network cable to share free broadband, but those who stay in the rental house and surf the Internet The feeling is obviously not as good as the Internet cafe.
So he became a frequent visitor in the Internet cafe again, and the first choice was of course the nearest Lightspeed Internet cafe.
Wang Pu's income from work is not bad, and there is no burden on his family, and he is single, so the usual expenses are not big, so the upgrade from the Lightspeed Internet Cafe to the Lightspeed Internet Cafe does not put much pressure on him, so he just bought a five-hundred-dollar gift A membership card of 500 is enough for half a year's consumption.
Internet cafes are a bit more expensive, but the environment is really much better. They are all non-smoking areas, at least not as smoky as before, and there are many more girls who come to surf the Internet.
As soon as Wang Pu sat down in his old seat, a girl came beside him.
Wang Pu skillfully turned on the computer, quickly logged into his Fetion signal, and immediately heard a "beep beep" sound from the headset placed on the table, which lasted for several seconds.
The girl next door heard it and glanced at Wang Pu curiously.
Wang Pu didn't pay attention, he opened Feixun quickly, replying messages one by one with his fingers flying.
These news basically come from Feixun groups. Wang Pu has established a total of 7 Feixun groups, all of which are "Swordsman" book fan groups. The total number of group members has exceeded 20,000. It is considered a small influence in the martial arts Internet circle. strength.
Since working in the company during the day cannot use Feixun, Wang Pu spends his evenings managing his Feixun group and discussing the storyline in the book with his group friends.
Wang Pu can be regarded as one of the earliest fans of "Swordsman", when "Swordsman" was serialized in Inspur Reading, he had organized many voting activities, and he was also a loyal fan of the author "Recalling the Past".
"Swordsman" was bought by Chen Fei Media. Wang Pu was undoubtedly the happiest when he was preparing to shoot the movie. He couldn't wait to see his favorite book on the big screen.
The friends in Feixun group are also very concerned about this, and the topic of discussion has changed from novels to movies, especially when they know that Lu Chen, Chen Feier, Liu Gangsheng, Tan Hong and other big names will star in "Swordsman" During the "Jianghu", everyone was extremely excited.
As a result, the release time of "Swordsman" was pushed back and forth again and again, until it was released during the National Day.
Wang Pu was inevitably a little upset about this, and then recently saw news on the Internet that due to the disastrous box office failures of martial arts films such as "Juvenile Jianghu", "Swordsman" may not be released as scheduled.
He was really upset, he always felt like he was missing a lot, and he felt inexplicably restless.
Especially since the National Day is not far away, there is no movement from Chenfei Media, which seems to confirm this rumor from another aspect.
"Group leader, you are finally here. Have you seen the poster of "Swordsman"?"
"The stills of "Swordsman" are also out, group leader, you have to give out red envelopes!"
"Well, there is also a cosplay competition, is there anyone in the group participating? If you want to go, bring me one!"
"Hahaha, I'm going to watch it now..."
Seeing the messages posted in the Fetion group, Wang Pu was a little dazed.
"The stills of "Swordsman" are out?"
He really didn't know anything, and he also blamed the secrecy of the "Swordsman" crew, as well as their disregard for publicity. After filming for more than half a year, there were not a few stills released, which gave people a very mysterious feeling.
Other movies started to be hyped a year before their release, not to mention stills, posters and promotional films, all kinds of gossip and insider revelations were flying all over the sky, making it dizzying whether they were true or false.
In contrast, "Swordsman" is simply a clean stream, not following the normal routine at all.
Now that the stills are finally out, is it time to start publicity
And what about the cosplay contest
Wang Pu didn't look for the answer in the group, he had to maintain the prestige of the group leader, opened the browser and logged in to the blog, and clicked on the official V of "Swordsman" in the watch list.
The film official V of "Swordsman" is also considered a strange flower in the Inspur blog, especially in the past six months, except for regular reports on the production progress, there is basically no publicity, so low-key that I am sorry for the few people who pay attention to it million followers.
But today's situation is obviously different. The official V of "Swordsman" updated three blog posts in one go, including five promotional posters, hundreds of movie stills, and an announcement of a promotional event!
Wang Pu clicked on the first poster in the first place with lightning speed.
The high-resolution poster images are clearly displayed on the computer screen in the blink of an eye.
very handsome!
Wang Pu's eyes lit up.
The protagonist of this poster is Linghu Chong played by Lu Chen. He is wearing a gray shirt with a long sword hanging around his waist. There is an unruly smile on his face. An indescribable freedom.
This is Linghu Chong in his mind!
This was the first thought that came to Wang Pu's mind when he saw this poster.
In addition to being handsome enough, Lu Chen's aura is completely in line with the description in the book, and most importantly, Wang Pu saw that "Swordsman" is completely different from other martial arts movies in terms of appearance.
That's the taste of a knight-errant!
