Lu Yinbing always did things as she pleased. She put on such heavy makeup that even her own mother couldn't recognize her. First, she wanted to disguise her identity. Although Xue Yao doted on her like a daughter, she also got angry sometimes. She didn't want to challenge her bottom line. Second, she wanted to test Xia Yitong to see if she knew her better than her own mother and whether she could recognize her. If she did, that would be the best. If she didn't, she could just scare her.
Xiaoxi, this fake assistant, couldn't even recognize it even after being given a hint. She needs to think carefully about whether to increase his salary next month.
Lu Yinbing lowered the brim of his hat, his large eyes painted with purple eyeshadow flickered with a demonic aura. He stretched out a hand from behind and whispered eerily, "Where's the ticket?"
"..." Xiaoxi handed the ticket to her tremblingly.
Why is this like a gang meeting? Mom, I'm so scared.
Lu Yinbing took the ticket and smiled: "How is it? Can I recognize it like this?"
Xiaoxi shook her head frantically.
Lu Yinbing: "That's good."
He checked the time of the movie ticket, and there were still about ten minutes before the ticket check. So he sat down next to Fang Wei, who put down her phone, nodded gently and called out, "Mr. Lu."
Lu Yinbing sighed in his heart. Look at this assistant, so calm, so charismatic, so calm, so pleasing to the eye, worthy of being Xia Yitong's assistant. Turning back to look at Xi Xiaoxi, the contrast was striking.
Xi Xiaoxi is quite reliable at work. After all, she graduated from a top 2 university, has ambitions in this field, and works diligently. She is very qualified to be an assistant. But she is always absent-minded when she is not doing serious work, which always gives people a sense of exaggeration.
In the past, Lu Yinbing thought Xiaoxi was lively, could joke, and could teach her some knowledge she didn't know, which was quite good. Now, with the halo of "beauty in the eyes of the beholder", even her assistant has been put through a filter, and she looks good no matter how you look at her.
Xiaoxi felt very aggrieved. She felt aggrieved that Lu Yinbing didn't look at her, but instead frequently looked at Fang Hui, and she also felt aggrieved that Fang Hui, who was clearly on the same side with her, didn't pay much attention to her.
She got angry because she felt wronged. Of course, she didn't dare to be angry with Lu Yinbing, she only dared to blame Fang Hui, and she would never share her little secrets with her again, and she would not tell her gossip, humph!
If Fang Wei knew what she was thinking at the moment, she would probably go out and buy a string of firecrackers to celebrate her escape from the sea of suffering.
All they heard was the announcement at the cinema, "Audience members watching the 23:50 show of 'Breaking Snow' can start checking their tickets." Lu Yinbing held the ticket in her hand without moving. Xia Yitong said she would be there shortly, but she was not sure how many minutes that would be.
Five minutes later, the three of them were the only ones left in the waiting area. They sat together on high stools. Xiaoxi and Fang Hui each held a medium-sized cup of Coke and sipped it. The fresh popcorn was almost hot. Lu Yinbing threw a piece of popcorn into her mouth, which was still crispy. The entrance of the cinema was still empty. If Xia Yitong didn't come, the food would not be good.
Another minute passed. Lu Yinbing saw that the staff at the ticket gate was looking at them. If she didn't move, it would attract attention. So she took Fang Wei's arm and walked towards the ticket gate.
Lu Yinbing: "Let's go in first. When Xia Yitong arrives, ask her to find us inside. If four of them go in at once, it will be quite eye-catching."
Fang Hui: “???”
Xiaoxi: “???”
Wait, dear Teacher Lu, did you hold the wrong person
Fang Hui had already asked for her, frowning and saying, "Mr. Lu?"
Lu Yinbing: "That's right, let's go in first. Xiaoxi knows where my seat is. Let her bring that person over later."
Fang Hui wanted to say, "Tickets are for one person, and you can enter with your ticket. How can you not find a seat with your ticket? Do you need someone to take you there?" But before she could argue, Lu Yinbing had already pulled her in.
Fang Wei turned around and saw Xiaoxi standing there with two tickets in her hand, looking sad. Fang Wei automatically imagined a white blizzard in her background.
My boss's rebellion breaks my heart.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, but soon she felt reluctant and had mixed feelings.
"Breaking Snow" was released for one month, and the box office has exceeded 2 billion in the first 20 days. The review score on the film review website has dropped slightly and currently remains at 8.1 points. Due to the great success of word-of-mouth and box office, the film company announced that it would be postponed for one month. Before waiting for the movie to open, Lu Yinbing checked the real-time box office on the app, which was 2.68 billion. Although there is still a month of screenings, the summer season is already highly competitive. Although the movie still has some momentum, the trend in the later period should show a cliff-like decline, and the box office is estimated to stabilize at around 3.2 billion in the end.
The production cost of this movie plus the actors' salaries is about 300 million yuan, and the box office must reach at least 800 million yuan to start making a profit. Now it has exceeded 800 million yuan and is almost 2 billion yuan. Qin Hanlin and her husband have made a fortune again.
You can't just do filming, you have to be a producer and director yourself. I spent half a year shooting a movie with great effort. Although the pay can be said to be sky-high in the industry, it is only a fraction of what couple Zhan Tan and Qin Hanlin make. It's really not worth it.
Why didn’t she think that filming was so unprofitable before? Lu Yinbing thought that it was because she now had a family to support and had to think about how to make money to support her every day, so she naturally thought of this aspect.
One month after the film was released, the attendance was already very low, especially in the IMAX theater, even though it was still an early morning show. There was only a young couple sitting in the middle, whispering in their ears with their heads down, and from time to time you could hear the sound of a plastic bag being opened.
Lu Yinbing sat in the last row, and Fang Hui sat in the row in front of Lu Yinbing. Lu Yinbing leaned on the back of the chair and chatted with her for a few words, Xia Yitong, then checked the time on his phone and sat back in his seat.
The show time had already arrived, but the screen was still showing the "My Chinese Dream" series, which was just released this year. The management asked her to record a speech, so she asked her mother Liu Xinmin to quickly use her connections to let her go. When she thought about having to talk about the positive energy in the cinema countless times, she got goose bumps all over her body.
As she was watching, she spotted Lai Ying's figure, burst out laughing, and took a picture of Lai Ying's face on the screen and sent it to her - Isn't your Chinese dream to make enough money to open a milk tea shop at home? When will it become the rise of the motherland
Recently, I haven’t contacted her in order to avoid being fed dog food. Laiying replied immediately - Fuck you!
Lu Yinbing—My father is an only child, so he has no uncle! Why don’t you learn from your mistakes
Laiying—You actually went out to watch a movie? The sun was rising from the west.
Lu Yinbing - With my girlfriend, how about it, jealous and envious, right? She will be here soon, hehe.
Come on, get lost!
Lu Yinbing—Hehe.
As soon as she finished sending this message, the lights in the cinema dimmed, and the light from the phone was very eye-catching in the darkness. Out of movie-watching etiquette, Lu Yinbing locked the screen of her phone and looked up at the giant screen in front of her seriously.
Everywhere you look, there is heavy snow. I have to say that Qin Hanlin's Best Visual Effects Awards are not won in vain, this picture alone is worth the price of admission. The air conditioning in the theater was turned on very high, and Lu Yinbing didn't feel cold wearing a short-sleeved shirt inside, but when the picture came out, she could feel the chill personally, as if she was in the vast snow.
The old man's unintegrated ballad echoed in the snow-capped mountains, distant and empty.
A small wooden house appeared in the depth of the sight. Lu Yinbing suddenly sat up straight and looked towards the gate. A figure wearing a baseball cap sneaked in. She didn't stop at all and ran straight to the last row, followed by Xiaoxi who was running in small steps.
They were both running, but Xia Yitong had already reached his seat, while Xiaoxi had just walked to the entrance of that row.
She sat down nervously, her heart still pounding. A cup of Coke was handed to her with a straw already in place. Xia Yitong took a sip from the woman's hand to calm her mood after running all the way here.
"Lu—" She turned her head, a sweet smile naturally rose on her face, and then froze, and her back hit the armrest heavily, obviously she was frightened.
Lu Yinbing admitted that she had made a mistake. Her original plan was this: Xia Yitong arrived a little earlier than her, and she would use this face to scare her. Whether she recognized her or not, there would be follow-up developments. After the follow-up developments, she went to the bathroom to remove her makeup before the movie started. She carried a makeup removal tool in her bag, and in less than two minutes, she could return to a face as natural as a lotus out of clear water. But man proposes, God disposes. Xia Yitong was delayed on the way and arrived later than her. If she removed her makeup, wouldn’t it be a waste of effort? So she kept this colorful face and waited until Xia Yitong appeared.
Lu Yinbing pinched her fingers and put them down quickly, thinking it was the eunuch's behavior. She then pointed at her cheek and asked delicately, "Do I look good?"
"!!!" Xia Yitong said with difficulty, "It looks good."
Lu Yinbing: "Really? Then kiss me."
"!!!" Xia Yitong used the light from the movie screen to look at Lu Yinbing's colorful face, her false eyelashes that were long enough to kill a fly, and her big red lips. She bit her lower lip, not knowing where to start.
Lu Yinbing closed her eyes and moved her face closer without giving in.
"relative."
