Christmas is not a traditional Chinese holiday, nor is it even a statutory holiday.

But when China integrated into the world much earlier and for a long time than on Earth, the invasion of Western culture like Christmas was already irreversible. Even though the restart of traditional culture has been very strong in the last decade with the complete rise of China, it seems increasingly unrealistic to want young people, even those middle-aged people, to give up a festival that they have become accustomed to.

What young people in China care about is only the carnival opportunities brought by the festival, as for the meaning of Christmas itself......

Who the hell cares?

Therefore, when the day before Christmas, the so-called Christmas Eve, is a day that young people value, so not only the young men and girls who urgently need to sway their hormones walk into the restaurant, the cinema, and the roadside inn with flowers in hand, including middle-aged people in their thirties and forties, also take the opportunity to show their romance to people at home or outside the home.

And it is precisely because of them that merchants also regard Christmas as an important time to make money every year.

As for movie theaters, not only are there discounts on ticket prices, drinks for couples, popcorn and other activities, major film companies will also put their highlights in this schedule - although it is not as good as the Chinese New Year and summer vacation, it is also a blockbuster and star-studded!

Of course, children can't be ignored at this time.

For example, Zhao Zhihuo said with a smile just after dinner on Friday night: "Girl, my dad has already bought a movie ticket for 8 o'clock in the evening, how about we go to see The Lion King together?" ”

"The Lion King? Yes, yes! ”

The daughter's eyes immediately lit up after watching the trailer, and she nodded wildly. The girl has already seen the trailer, especially the special interest in the small animals on the opposite, coupled with the attraction of "Hakuta Matata", there is naturally no reason not to look forward to it.

As for the wife of the family......

"Tonight? Can't you go see it tomorrow? ”

Regarding Zhao Zhihuo's proposal, his wife, who had been tired for a week, was still a little reluctant.

"No, no, just go now!"

This time, without her father's horse, the little girl ran over and shook her mother's arm: "Mom, I'm going to see the Lion King!" Just tonight! Go, go......"

……

"Come on, come on, let's play a game!"

In the phone call, Lin Lin's voice was sweet: "Just play two!" After playing two hands, Xiaobai should be online, and I'll play with them when the time comes......"

"Hah...... Don't play! ”

The sweet and greasy voice couldn't make Sun Peng shake at all, first yawned casually, and then shook his head without hesitation and refused.

"Humph!"

Lin Lin was very dissatisfied with this, and snorted and said, "Oh, I said that you are a person, and you don't go out to play, what's wrong with playing two games?" ”

"Playing games on Christmas Eve? I don't want to die yet. ”

Pouting, Sun Peng said disdainfully: "You must know that I am a married man, unlike you single dogs, my wife will be home from work in a while...... By the way, aren't you still mixed with that Chen Changfeng? Why don't you get romantic together on Christmas Eve? ”

"Phew, what do you mean by mixing together?"

After listening to Sun Peng's words, Lin Lin was immediately furious!

"Ahem, aren't you still in a relationship with Chen Changfeng?"

Trembling by this voice, Sun Peng hurriedly remedied: "Today is Christmas Eve, didn't you ask him to go out with you?" ”

"He's going to a charity dinner tonight, and he's not available!"

After listening to Lin Lin's explanation, Sun Peng sighed and said, "Charity dinner or something, can't you also go with you?" Or is it ...... You don't plan to make it public, and you're going to keep talking about it so secretly? ”

Speaking of his cousin's relationship, Sun Peng was also quite helpless.

Although both of them are still young, everyone has been very tolerant of celebrities falling in love these years, and Sun Peng really doesn't understand why they don't show it generously. In the past, because of this problem, Sun Peng was very dissatisfied with Chen Changfeng, thinking that he was not like a man and had no responsibility, but when Sun Peng knew that this was mainly because of his cousin's insistence......

Lin Lin obviously also heard the change in Sun Peng's tone, and quickly pouted: "Okay, after the release of "League of Assassins", we will make it public." Hmph, you don't know how difficult it is for me to learn dance and get into the film industry...... If you make your relationship public, you'll definitely lose fans! ”

“……”

His eyelids jumped violently, and Sun Peng was speechless.

Hard?

Who are you fooling?!

If it is difficult for anyone else to get into the film industry, Sun Peng may really believe it. After all, this circle is very small, and there are thousands of young boys and girls who want to be stars, and there is no one in ten thousand who can succeed. But Lin Lin has the help of her cousin, starting from the original "Mad Lady", "Criminal Minds", "Super Sense Detective", "Kill Bill", "Keep Talking", "The Matrix" and "League of Assassins......

With a series of classics from the earth, it is difficult to make her popular?

"Oh, I won't tell you! If you don't play, I'll go alone! ”

Lin Lin may also feel a little embarrassed, so she hurriedly threw down a sentence and hung up. Leaving Sun Peng alone to listen to the busy sound on the phone, he threw the phone on the sofa with a cut.

But a moment later, he picked it up again.

glanced at the prompt message, it was sent by Zheng Jia, saying that it would take about half an hour to get home. The more the police get busier at the end of the year, Zheng Jia, the backbone of the public relations department, is naturally more difficult, and during this time, he basically goes home at eight or nine o'clock every day, and Sun Peng is used to it.

Idle and bored, Sun Peng subconsciously opened an APP software called Tiger Eye.

There are six new films in the Christmas schedule.

But those who are qualified to be the opponent of "The Lion King" have no ...... in Sun Peng's opinion Perhaps in the eyes of others, the romantic comedy "Say You Love Me with a Smile" starring Hu Tian and Lin Wan'er, two super first-line celebrities, should be a strong opponent of "The Lion King", but Sun Peng doesn't care at all.

Even if the total investment of this love movie is claimed to be three and a half billion, Sun Peng is not moved at all.

Although there is never a shortage of markets for romantic films, especially in some special schedules, the limitations are sometimes great. Especially these films with investment as a gimmick, basically rely on the stars to prop up the scenes, unless the movie itself is really good-looking......

It turns out that at least "Laughing and Saying Hobbies" is simply not enough to watch in front of "The Lion King".

Although it was only released in the early hours of this morning, "The Lion King" has already crossed the 150 million mark at the box office - and this is still the premise that most children have not yet had a chance to enter the theater. and "Smile and Say You Love Me", which was released at the same time, even if a large number of fans went to cheer for it, the box office was only 130 million.

Take a look at the ratings and movie reviews on several major websites......

After watching it for a long time, Sun Peng finally came to a conclusion that "Laughing and Saying Hobbies" was indeed as he began to expect, and it could not pose any threat to "The Lion King" at all.

"Tsk, the box office will definitely kick off this weekend!"

"What's pulling away?"

At this time, a voice suddenly came, and Sun Peng raised his head and said in surprise: "Jiajia? When did you come in? Why didn't I even hear a sound...... Hey? What's wrong with you? Why is your face so red? ”

Looking at Zheng Jia, who had a somewhat strange expression, Sun Peng hurriedly stood up.

"Dapeng, I, I may have ......"
