Hank, a true Philadelphia, is a ten-year student at a high school in Philadelphia, at the age of his youthful personality.

But today, he, four classmates, and five of them traveled nearly 140 kilometers by train from Philadelphia to New York.

After walking out of the train station, the five of them stood at the gate of the New York train station, and couldn't help but feel a little dizzy when they saw the tall buildings in the distance.

"Hank, what road is that theater on, is there still time?" a skinny classmate asked Hank anxiously.

"I'll take a look. Hank immediately took out a map from his backpack, looked at the marks that had been marked in advance, looked at the time, and said, "There are still 2 hours, it's time, let's go to the subway and go." ”

“GO，GO，GO！”

The five young men found a policeman patrolling near the train station, questioned him, and ran in the direction of the subway.

"Hey, I don't know what Yang thinks? Why wasn't this movie released on a large scale in the United States?"

After the five of them got on the subway out of breath, one of the fatter classmates complained breathlessly.

Hearing the words of this fat classmate, several other people also showed a look of approval, this time in order to watch the movies of their idols, especially from Philadelphia to New York, it is really not something that ordinary fans can do.

This also reflects their admiration for Yang Ming from another aspect.

However, it is indeed too troublesome.

"I've seen the news and comments on the Internet, maybe in the movie made by Yang this time, their country's cultural color is too strong, so in order to prevent foreign fans from getting used to it, there will only be five theaters for test screenings. Hank pondered for a moment, then wisely analyzed.

Hearing Hank's words, the other four classmates fell silent, gasping for breath, because of the time, they had to spend a lot of time to catch the subway.

They all like to worship this genius from China because of Yang Ming's music, and the movie is just incidental, and the success of "2012" is just to make their idols gild with a brighter halo.

Therefore, when I heard Hank's analysis at this moment, I couldn't help but nod.

For Chinese movies, they have usually watched a lot of them, but except for those gunfights and war movies, they basically don't choose to watch other types of movies because they can't understand them.

Especially that kind of costume movie, it makes people feel foggy and don't know what to say.

The cultural gap that we are born with cannot be eliminated in a short period of time.

Half an hour later, when Hank and the five of them stood at the door of a theater, everyone was relieved that there was still time.

"Hello, here are five movie tickets for the movie directed and acted by Huaxia Yang. Hank took the money and said to the ticket sales staff, and then added: "Movie tickets for the most recent time shows." ”

"I'm sorry, sir, but all tickets for the 19 o'clock premiere are sold out. ”

The staff's words suddenly made Hank and the five of them a little flustered, how could it be?

It's not even six o'clock, and the movie tickets for 19 o'clock have already been sold out?

"If you can, you can choose the movie ticket for "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" at half past eight. The staff member said as he looked at the computer screen.

Just as Hank and the five of them looked at each other and were about to discuss it, the audience who was standing behind them and waiting to buy movie tickets was a little anxious, and said, "You don't buy it, if you don't buy it, let's buy it first." ”

"Buy!"

Hank couldn't wait to discuss and immediately spoke to the staff.

After buying the movie tickets, Hank and his four classmates each took the movie tickets and looked at each other, and one of them said, "I really didn't expect Yang's test movie to be so popular, it's incredible." ”

"Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" did not place any advertisements in the local media of the United States before, but the English synopsis of the movie was released on some websites, and the details of the movie can be found on the English version of Maoyan Movie and Time.com.

It can be said that if you are not a die-hard fan of Yang Ming, or a fan who likes to watch movies, you really don't know that Yang Ming has a movie that is quietly being screened in five theaters in the United States at this time.

But even so, the tickets for the first show were sold out.

And Hank took the opportunity to look at the computer screen that had just sold tickets, and the movie tickets for that show at half past eight in the evening were almost sold out.

Movie tickets at half past eight.

Hank and a few classmates saw that they had plenty of time, so they found a fast food restaurant near the theater, settled dinner, and waited for the movie to begin.

At the same time.

In one of the offices of Carmichael Cinemas, although it was already night, it was time to get off work, but the office was still brightly lit.

"Hey, the movie tickets for the five movie theaters at 19 o'clock have basically been sold out, and the eight and a half shows are about the same, well, I know. ”

Simmons held his mobile phone and listened to the feedback from various movie theaters, the first day of the test screening of "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" today was very good, if nothing else, the attendance rate of the show at 10 o'clock tonight will not be low.

It can be seen that "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" just relies on Yang Ming's name, which is enough to make fans and audiences in the United States pay for movie tickets.

It seems that Yang's worries are completely unnecessary.

Simmons kept thinking about the shape of the movie "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng", and the success of "Shaolin Temple" in the United States made him very optimistic about this kind of Chinese kung fu movie featuring unique fight scenes, so he was extremely careful about Yang Ming, and only used five theaters for trial screenings at the beginning, which was a little incomprehensible.

Now it seems that Yang was wrong!

Thinking of this, Simmons immediately picked up his mobile phone and called Yang Ming.

Fortunately, it was six o'clock in the evening on the side of the United States, almost nine o'clock in the morning on the Huaxia side.

Yang Ming happened to be in the company, when he connected the phone, after hearing Simmons's intention to call, he thought about it and said: "Don't worry, Simmons, the reason why the box office on the first day of today is so hot must be the fan effect, if the box office is still so hot a week later, I will not object to expanding the scale of the screening." ”

Hearing that Yang Ming insisted on seeing it so much, Simmons had no good way to hang up.

It seems that he can feel Simmons's disappointment thousands of miles away, Yang Ming smiled and shook his head, with his popularity in the United States, as well as the influence brought by his concert in New York, the good shape of the first day of the test screening had long been within his expectations.

But this must be fan consumption, and after two or three days, after the enthusiasm of fans has subsided, if the test screening box office of "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" in the United States is still so hot, then he will definitely not refuse to expand the scale of the release.

To be honest, Yang Ming can't risk failure to release "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" on a large scale at the beginning of the United States.

The aura of the demonic genius on his body must not allow any fading at this stage.
