The Rise of Otaku

Chapter 32: Little movie theater

Views:

Today is Saturday, the children who have been in school for several days can finally play to their heart's content, and Zhou Yu's yard is naturally the most popular, almost all the children in the village are here. Even children from the next-door village were pulled over by friends from Luhua Village to see the delicate toys in the room.

It's a pity that it's already autumn, and the weather is getting colder and I can't go swimming in the river, so I just play some games like fighting in the yard, police and catching thieves. And when the children were playing around, they suddenly saw Brother Yu walking out carrying a big guy, so they surrounded him curiously.

It was a strange machine that none of the children had ever seen. It's no wonder that the projector was Zhou Yu's childhood, but it has long since been eliminated. Now everyone plays DVDs at home or goes to the cinema. Who still watches movies with a curtain outdoors

The little mouse was the most curious, so he came over to help and asked, "Brother Yu, what is this? Is it used to open a gun?"

He can really guess wildly. He probably wanted to fly those wooden planes into the sky a long time ago. It's no wonder that he has been playing "War Chapter" recently, and he has an unusual interest in airplanes that can fly in the sky. He suddenly changed his job to become an ace pilot, and he would never use a tank if he could use an airplane.

It's a pity that Zhou Yu doesn't have the ability to get the plane into the sky at present, so he can only put it on the ground to enjoy his eyesight.

"Don't mess around, this is a movie playing machine, and I'll show you a movie later."

It's better to have fun alone than to have fun together, and it's too desolate to watch such a big screen by yourself, so I simply let the children have fun together.

Watching movies is nothing new, unlike when Zhou Yu was a child, he could be excited all day when he heard movies playing on the street. Now there are audio-visual classrooms in elementary schools, and I can watch a few shows every week. But this is not at school, and it is impossible to show a boring science and education film, so Zhou Hao is quite happy.

"Brother Yu, what movie are you showing? I want to watch Kung Fu Panda 3, can you get it?"

Fuck you, Zhou Yu is angry. The taste of these brats is really much higher than their previous self. At that time, "The Monk Carrying Water" would fill the air, but now children are already watching Hollywood blockbusters. After all, it is a level 1 animation. Even with various bonuses, it should not be too good. I don’t know if it can satisfy the appetite of children.

It would be embarrassing to be booed by the kids.

While hanging the curtain on the branches of the big banyan tree, he was silently worried in his heart.

Zhou Yu was making movies at home, and some old people also watched them. He vaguely remembered that he used to watch movies about mine warfare and tunnel warfare, and he sighed for a while. So after dinner, the children moved tables, chairs and benches to Zhou Yu's house, and some old people followed behind, ready to relive their old dreams.

Fortunately, the yard is big enough to accommodate these people. Under the illumination of the headlights in the courtyard, they quickly found their ideal positions. Before the movie started, the little ghosts kept laughing and laughing. At night, there were still so many people playing together, which made some troublesome little ghosts even more excited.

But after all, it was night, and it was still dark in places where the light was not enough, so from time to time, children fell into disgrace while running, and only calmed down after being yelled at by adults. If it was in the past, there should be vendors selling all kinds of snacks at this time, and the crying kid can always grab a bag of melon seed snacks, and then spit out the melon seed skins while watching a movie.

At that time, hoodies seemed to be popular. When you take off your clothes after watching the movie, you will find that there are all kinds of things in the hood that look like a department store. Melon seed peels, orange peels, sugar wrappers, and if you are unlucky, you may even have half-chewed gum, so you have to yell and curse.

Seeing that the sky was about the same, Zhou Yu came out with a film tray on his body. Turn off the headlights in the courtyard, and suddenly only the lamp on the table is still on. It belongs to the projectionist, and without it, it is impossible to adjust the machine and change the disc.

Of course, Zhou Yu doesn't need to do these things, he just needs to sit in the seat dedicated to the projectionist and pretend to be working. It is the Shadow Fiend who lives in the case that is really handling everything.

With his skillful operation, he first adjusted the position of the screen, and then directed Zhou Yu to set up a set of film and a blank film respectively. Zhou Yu's only role is to make sure that no one comes over, otherwise the fact that the machine will automatically show will be exposed. Of course, it's not easy to take a peek under the cover of night, and Zhou Yu blocked it with his body, so as long as he didn't get close to him, he couldn't see the inside of the machine box.

Everything is ready, the movie begins.

The rustling sound of the projector sounded again in Luhua Village, and a burst of pleasant music came from the speakers, and "Flame Mountain" began.

Zhou Yu understood when he saw the title. Its quality is the same as that of "Havoc in Heaven". Although the picture is hardly good, the various soundtracks are of god-like quality, which is close to that of a large symphony orchestra. When the classic soundtrack of Peking Opera sounded, the old men immediately cheered up. Unfortunately, they could only shake their heads when they saw the animation, thinking that they were accompanying their grandchildren.

Children like animation the most, even if it is not good from the perspective of the picture alone, they are still so fascinated by watching it. Even the 'high-grade' little mouse, who was most worried, clapped his hands and applauded at the moment. It seemed that his worries were for nothing.

To be honest, those who can like this movie, either have an understanding of art, or the feelings of "Havoc in Heaven", and then these children who don't have high requirements for the picture, as long as the story is interesting. For Zhou Yu, watching such movies occasionally is a kind of enjoyment, but if it happens every week, he will definitely not be able to bear it.

Therefore, you can give up the level 1 animated film and watch the performance of the level 2 animated film tomorrow.

There is nothing outstanding about the content of the movie, and there is nothing to criticize, it faithfully reproduces the original work. The soundtrack is god-level, and the dubbing is very CCTV, but the picture is really behind the times.

2 hours passed quickly, and it was already late for the children, so even if they clamored to watch another one, Zhou Yu would not do what they wanted. Turn off the projector, turn on the headlights in the courtyard, and send them home one by one amidst the children's complaints.

"Brother Yu, when will you show us the movie again?"

The little mouse was impatient, so he started to make an appointment for the next session.

"From now on, every Saturday night, as long as you have nothing to do, I will let you guys watch it, but there is one condition, you must finish your homework, and those who haven't done it will not let him watch it."

As a result, the parents in Luhua Village were surprised to see that the children would take the initiative to do their homework every weekend after school, as if they were a different person, diligent and eager to learn. After inquiring strangely, I found out that it was Zhou Yu, the strange boy from Zhou Hong's family who had run a 'small movie theater'. This small cinema does not charge money for watching movies, but tickets are required, and this ticket is homework, and if it is not completed, it will not be allowed to enter.

Really, a good idea!
