France's Céroux Cinema is located in the easternmost part of Cannes.

The seventies of the last century......

When the film industry was on the rise, Sailu Cinema followed this wave of film trends and ate the first wave of dividends.

Afterward......

The Céroux Cinema expanded to Paris, Strasbourg, Montpellier, Lille and other important French cities, and enjoyed a period of glory.

Afterward......

After the death of Iscar, the most capable founder of the Sairu Cinema, the Sairu Cinema began to decline again.

The alternation of times, the rapid development of technology, the gradual increase of competitors, the incompetence and indulgence of the second successor, and the intensification of internal contradictions......

Since she was born, Elaine has been listening to her mother talk about Ceru.

When I was five or six years old, my mother said with pride on her face that after the Cannes International Film Festival, many films would be shown in their cinemas, and they were very close to Cannes cinema.

Probably from the age of nine......

The mother's face began to have multiple scars.

Father hit.

's father is an alcoholic, but on the contrary, he is the second heir of Sailu Cinema, and he is contaminated with the problems that countless rich second generations should have.

The mother began to hide from the father.

began to talk about the day when the Sairu cinema was not as good as the day, and there was always sadness in the words.

Every year Elaine grew older, the Céroux cinema in France closed down.

During this period, every day I could hear about various management conflicts in the cinema, and then the financial chain was broken, and my father became addicted to gambling and began to lose everything.

Their mother and daughter can only watch the decay of the Sairu Cinema, but there is nothing they can do!

Eighteen years old adult!

His father died drunk......

The Sairu Cinema was also closed to the last one.

And the last heir also became Elaine.

Elaine worked hard to run the last of the Syru cinemas, but ......

They don't have the money to buy new equipment!

In movie theaters, 3D has become more and more popular, with old curtain films, hard chairs, and dirty decorations......

It's completely out of step with the times!

After not keeping up with the times, there are fewer and fewer audiences, but more and more expensive rents, everything makes the pressure more and more intense!

She followed her mother to witness the splendor of the Céroux cinema that year, with a steady stream of guests and even the now-famous Cannes jury......

Now, there are not many movies willing to be shown here, only some old movies from the seventies and eighties, and inevitably fewer and fewer customers......

Finally, there were no more guests coming up to see the movie!

"Welcome!"

""Midsummer That Year" is being released, and it is a very good Chinese movie!"

"Please come in, please come here, we've cleaned the chairs!"

“……”

January 22.

Elaine stood in the doorway.

With a sweet smile, she beckons every guest.

She has smooth blonde hair at the box office, her smile is sweet, her body is slender and bumpy, especially the proud places, which are particularly eye-catching.

These appearance conditions, when she decided to use them, there were still many guests who were willing to come over to watch a movie.

This is......

The last capital of her desperate bet was gone.

a week ago.

She received a phone call.

The phone is Avery. Tashi called, and she vaguely remembered that she had seen this chubby uncle when she was a child

She was thrilled.

Then, Avery. Tashi told her that there was a Chinese movie that he hoped would be shown in theaters, and that he would pay a part of it.

Huaxia Movie!

Elaine herself didn't feel much, but thinking that she had money to make the Sairu Cinema last another day, she readily agreed.

And then......

This "Midsummer That Year" from Huaxia was released.

The first screening, of course, had no guests, and the second one, too.

Even her mother, who was cleaning, talked to her about closing the house tomorrow and advised her to plan for her future.

She graduated from the University of Paris Dauphine and was ranked 30th in the world and 1st in France in the QS World University Rankings in '09!

After graduation, many French companies have sent her olive branches.

As long as she closes this movie theater, she has an excellent way out.

But......

She seems to have the stubbornness in her heart, but she has never been allowed to do so.

Look at the splendor, watch the collapse.

That sense of disparity made her always believe that she could hold out until the last breath.

Turn......

From the third scene.

In the third scene, more than a dozen guests walked into the cinema and watched this "Midsummer That Year".

They felt that it was not bad, but vaguely, they felt that they had recognized Huaxia from another angle, and at the same time felt the deep-seated "social cruelty".

Elaine didn't understand what that meant.

In short, after their recommendation, the number of people who came began to increase one after another.

January 22.

"That Summer" was screened all day long, and there were more than a dozen audiences at each screening.

There are still not many guests, and some of them shake their heads after watching it, thinking that what kind of shooting is it......

But there are also some people who see it, find it interesting, and feel that this is a unique youthful romance that belongs to the East......

This Chinese movie doesn't seem to be ugly!

Although it is not a hope, and it is impossible for this "Midsummer That Year" to prop up a movie theater, it is also the last movie!

[I'm going to wait until the last guest leaves!] 】

Evening.

She stood at the door of the movie theater with a dry throat, but she still smiled, holding a movie ticket and smiling at every passerby.

In my heart, I think of this belief!

………………………………

Night.

Deep.

Zhang Sheng opened the email sent to him by Bi Feiyu.

Then he saw that the total box office in the Syroux cinema was 7,600 francs.

The equivalent of RMB is 1,000 RMB.

The box office on the second day was twice as high as on the first day.

Zhang Sheng looked at this data and was a little surprised.

I didn't intend to insert willows before, but I didn't expect to be able to gain some additional data.

Although this number is very small, it can be regarded as a set of world premiere achievements.

In addition to the French data of "That Summer", there is also Bi Feiyu's plan for the repremiere of "The Dog on the Other Side of the Mountain".

This side of Huaxia......

Some theaters are planning to buy the screening rights of "The Dog on the Other Side of the Mountain" after "The Dog on the Other Side of the Mountain" was shortlisted for Berlin!

"The Dog on the Other Side of the Mountain" was released in China for the first time, but it only relied on the relationship of some theaters, arranged a few films, and did not systematically promote it, and it was not even a regular release.

So, failure seems inevitable.

But this time it was released......

It's not the same!

The "gimmick" of the shortlisted works of the Berlin International Film Festival is very useful in the current era, and many capitals seem to have taken a fancy to this gimmick and want to take advantage of their fame to get a piece of the pie.

Zhang Sheng looked at the release plan of "The Dog on the Other Side of the Mountain" in the mailbox.

The plan is well written.

Zhang Sheng couldn't find anything wrong with it.

He pushed his glasses and turned to the next page, which was the copyright news of "The Dog on the Other Side of the Mountain".

Thanks to Avery. Tashi's highly recommended, "The Dog Over the Mountain" has been sold in more than 10 countries, and it probably earned close to $1.18 million!

Bi Feiyu didn't hide anything at all, and even wrote it down to the decimal point.

Zhang Sheng rubbed his eyes.

He originally made a [Southern California International Film Awards] just to make a sum of money.

But I didn't expect to really find him gold?

After reading the data......

Zhang Sheng browsed Weibo.

Then, inadvertently, he saw Tom's figure.

Tom took the ad for "milk powder" and then for shampoo.

In the video interview, Tom is full of style, immersed in the huge benefits that his reputation brings.

He had forgotten that his real name was Dawa......

Fame!

It's really easy to get lost.

But how long can you last this fame and fortune?

You can change from Dawa to Tom, and it's easy to change from Tom to Dava!

After staring at him for a long time, Zhang Sheng narrowed his eyes.

No angry, no angry, no more to Tom.

He just opened Li Yanhong's Weibo.

I read Weibo one by one very seriously.

After reading it, he closed his eyes, leaned on the old sofa in the office, and rested while outlining all the relationships around Li Yanhong......

And then......

He synthesized a series of information provided to her by Zhang Panpan in his mind.

Li Yanhong's general entrepreneurial process, some of the things that Li Yanhong did in [Shengshi Entertainment], and what Zhang Panpan knew.

And also......

Recently, Li Yanhong's attitude towards Zhang Panpan has changed, and even Zhang Panpan once felt that Li Yanhong was not so annoying.

One by one, the data and the information analyzed from meeting Li Yanhong again and again, constantly intersected in Zhang Sheng's mind.

The network of relationships is finally beginning to become clear.

Little by little, time passed.

In the blink of an eye, it was four o'clock in the morning.

Zhang Sheng finally opened his eyes.

He didn't feel tired, but felt that his mind was very active and his mental state was very good.

He turned on the computer and found the information of "Wing Chun" in the computer, Gao Yuan of "Thunder", and Gao Yuan's nephew Gao Hui......

Although the information is not detailed, and it is only some public information that everyone knows, Li Yanhong is definitely related to Cui Hao, the director of "Wing Chun"!

"Wing Chun".

Li Yanhong took out a lot of resources!

He stared at Gao Hui's Weibo.

Gao Hui has been talking about the artistry of his "Paging 1988" everywhere since the [Southern California International Electric Academy Awards], showing off his awards......

He narrowed his eyes.

Subsequently, Gao Hui's phone was called.

On the phone.

Gao Hui seemed to be sleeping.

But after hearing the proficient English and the self-introduction of the [Southern California International Film Awards], Gao Hui instantly became energetic.

"Hello, Mr. Gao Hui! Didn't you want "Paging 1988" to be released in China again? ”

"It seems that "The Dog on the Other Side of the Mountain" is about to be released!"

"Don't you [Shengshi Entertainment] have any ideas?"

"I know that [Shengshi Entertainment] is now promoting "Wing Chun", but maybe "Paging 1988" can also become the main hit of [Shengshi Entertainment]?"
