On October 12, "Chinese Partner" officially landed on the first day of theaters.

Because it is a working day, whether it is Molong Media or the film's distributor, China Film Optical Fiber, it was initially estimated that the matinee box office data during the day today should not be too good.

However, according to the data obtained by China Film's theaters, the box office trend of "Chinese Partner" can be called weird.

Before 8 p.m., the number of people in each session was 20......

You must know that even "Hurricane Rescue 2", which was released last week, failed to reach double digits in the number of viewers in a single show.

So much so that when Li Mo just got the data from China Film, he thought that China Film in this time and space had also habitually made the mistake of falsely reporting the box office.

If it weren't for Zong Shuai's repeated confirmation, Li Mo would even think that Han Shanping had reached the level of unscrupulousness for his own political achievements.

In this case, if the issuer no longer knows how to strike while the iron is hot, it can only mean that they have been messing around for so many years.

…………

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, in a well-decorated office building in Xujiahui, the magic capital, Ye Zifan was sitting at his desk leisurely drinking a cup of coffee.

As an elite white-collar worker who will turn 30 next month, Ye Zifan's journey can be called extremely smooth.

Although Yuelu City, Xiangnan Province, where he was born, is not a developed city, his record of winning the city's science champion in one fell swoop in the college entrance examination is still enough for Ye Zifan to write into the school's history and become the envy of many younger students.

After entering the university, although Ye Zifan was not as glamorous as when he was in his hometown, among the many classmates in the class, his development trajectory was much stronger than most people.

Going abroad, studying, studying, returning home......

After more than ten years of struggle, in the eyes of most people, Ye Zifan has reached the time of success, and all that remains is nothing more than riding a horse and enjoying life.

However, only Ye Zifan himself knows how stressful his work and life are now.

In a foreign company, performance appraisal, last elimination, project cycle ...... and other things are like shackles, reminding Ye Zifan anytime and anywhere: he is just a dispensable screw in this huge collective, once something goes wrong, the HR of the personnel department can find someone younger than him and lower salary requirements to replace him at any time......

After marrying his girlfriend who has been in love for many years, the pressure of housing loan and car loan is coming, and the education of children, the pension and medical care of both parents, etc., all need to be borne by these two young people who are gradually entering their thirties.

In order to keep themselves from making ends meet, Ye Zifan and his wife even had to plan in detail and include things like eating out a few times a month......

For Ye Zifan now, the most leisurely and relaxing time of the week is this time period.

Friday means that a week of intense work is coming to an end;

Five o'clock in the afternoon means that during this time period, whether it is the team leader or the manager, the director will not ask the employees to go all out and not relax during this time period......

So over time, at five o'clock in the afternoon on Friday, it has become Ye Zifan's fixed broadcast time.

"Hey, Zifan?"

Just as Ye Zifan was drinking coffee, thinking about how to justifiably take out some of his private money and arrange some entertainment for his wife on the weekend, Li Rui, who was sitting at the workstation next to him, suddenly called his name.

Unlike Ye Zifan, Li Rui has no experience of studying abroad, and his road is far more bumpy than Ye Zifan.

He repeated his studies twice before he was admitted to university.

When he repeated his studies for the second time, his family couldn't even afford his daily living expenses.

Li Rui relied on odd jobs in his spare time and helping in the school cafeteria, plus his homeroom teacher's help openly and secretly, he finally passed the second repetition and was admitted to the university of his choice.

It is precisely because of this that Li Rui studied hard in college, and joined the current company as soon as he graduated from college.

When Ye Zifan joined the company, Li Rui didn't like this man with the aura of 'pride of heaven' at first, and even in the first few contacts, he didn't give him a good look......

However, when Ye Zifan fainted in the company due to too much work pressure and acute appendicitis, and was discovered by Li Rui, Li Rui felt that his previous dislike for Ye Zifan was unreasonable.

In this world, there is never fairness between people, instead of spending time and resenting people who are two or three steps ahead of themselves, it is better for everyone to support each other and run forward together......

Since then, a former top student in the city's college entrance examination and a repeater who repeated twice before being admitted to university have become the best friends in the company.

There is no greater miracle of fate than this......

"Li Rui, what's the matter?" Although Li Rui's voice was heard, Ye Zifan was obviously in the stage of laziness now, and his brain was completely unwilling to operate.

"After getting off work, my daughter-in-law has made an appointment with me to go to the movies," Li Rui first explained the reason for the incident, and then continued, "Listen to my daughter-in-law, that movie is pretty good, I want to ask you, do you want to call your younger siblings and go with the two families?"

"Watching a movie?"

After listening to Li Rui's suggestion, Ye Zifan's eyes lit up, this proposal seemed to be very acceptable.

After the two men in the family became good friends, Ye Zifan and Li Rui's wife also became best friends who talked about everything, the four of them were not much different in age, and they had no children for the time being, and they would act together like this on weekends when they were free.

And the most important thing is that although the total expenditure of four people eating together has increased, the consumption evenly distributed to everyone is decreasing.

Although Ye Zifan had already made this proposal as an alternative in his heart, out of caution, he still asked: "What's the name of the movie? Don't be like the last time "Tai Chi", there are a lot of stars in the cast, but I don't know what I'm talking about. ”

"Uh, this...... This is definitely not enough, right," Speaking of the last movie, Li Rui's old face flushed, and he also felt a little unbearable, because the last movie was recommended by him.

Just in case, Li Rui suggested: "Zifan, don't you usually say that there is a place with Douban or Hu Dou, it's all the ratings given by netizens to the movie, if you don't feel at ease, you can go there and take a look." Netizens have high ratings, let's go, this is always okay, right?"

"That's fine. Ye Zifan nodded, in his mind, Hudou's score was quite objective. "What's the name of the movie?"

"China Partner". ”

Ye Zifan nodded and opened the relevant homepage of "Chinese Partners In" Hudou Network.

Because today is the first day of the launch, there are not many people who score it.

Although it was already more than 5 p.m., the total number of ratings was still around 10,000.

"Well, the rating is 8.3, which is ok. Look at the star reviews again......"

"30 percent gave it three stars, 45 percent gave it four stars, 15 percent gave it five stars, and only 10 percent felt that the film was a failure. ”

"I'll go. This movie is going crazy......"
