rebirth of cataclysm

Although Hu Mingchen found someone to take the blame, it was impossible for him to make things happen.

On the opening day, Hu Mingchen still gave Hu Jianqiang, Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai ten movie tickets each as a favor. As for how to control this degree in the future, it depends on how Hu Jianqiang controls it. For this, Hu Mingchen also taught Hu Jianqiang to be cheeky but

It's a bad move that's barely fair to say.

"You don't have to ask for money if you don't want to be embarrassed, but if someone offers to pay for a ticket, don't refuse. If you refuse twice, others won't do anything about it next time. But you accept

After the first time, the person behind you will be too embarrassed not to continue handing over the money, and this habit will develop naturally. Although this will still make others have something to say, at least you are not the one taking the initiative to reach out, and others can't say anything."

This was Hu Mingchen's bad idea. In rural areas, favors are often mutual. Hu Jianqiang would feel embarrassed to accept money from an acquaintance, but the acquaintance would also feel embarrassed not to give money at first.

Hu Mingchen planned to take advantage of this feature and get the money half-heartedly.

Hu Mingchen, who was born and raised here, knows the local characters very well.

In fact, Hu Mingchen also wanted to benefit the public and gain a reputation for being generous and kind, but his reason told him that he was far from that level.

Now that he is in business, maximizing profits is an inevitable choice. What's more, Hu Mingchen still owes a lot of debt, and his family's conditions are so embarrassing. Good-heartedism is absolutely unacceptable at this time.

It's nice to get a good comment from others, but it will be even more sad when your own family is hungry. One is face and the other is dignity. If you can't tell which is more important, then you are not suitable to go to the shopping mall.

Even if he wants to give back to his hometown, he has to wait for the day when he has the ability and strength. When he completes his primitive accumulation and becomes prosperous, Hu Mingchen will never be stingy about pulling in the people around him and asking them to follow him.

Towards prosperity.

The opening day of Duge Cinema happened to be a day for going to the cinema. People of all ages from all over the village came to Duge Street. For a while, Duge Street, which was already a small street, was crowded and overcrowded.

It was also on this day that people who came to the market discovered a big new thing in Duge Township. A movie theater opened on the street. This was a big event for the villagers who rarely watched TV.

A matter of vision.

Early in the morning, just after eight o'clock, deafening music began to play from the loudspeaker of Dougal Cinema, which immediately grabbed everyone's attention and curiosity.

Chen Xuesheng didn't dare to turn up the loudspeakers he brought in the city, but when he arrived in Duge Township, he had no worries. The two speakers hanging under the eaves outside the warehouse were turned up to the maximum, and the sound suddenly filled the whole place.

The streets are all covered.

Originally, the streets should be noisy on a market day, but under the cover of loud speakers, it seemed a little quiet.

"Where is this sound? It's so loud?"

"Ah, don't you know this? Our Doug Cinema opens today, and the sound is like that of a cinema."

"Really? Why haven't I heard that our Duge Township has a cinema? How could it be possible? We are so poor here."

"If you don't believe me, just sell the rice and go see it. Today it's half price, and with the money you can go see a movie."

"Really, I'm really going to have a look soon. I never thought we could have a movie theater here."

...

"Sister Huan, if you have time, my brother will invite you to watch a movie."

"Who is your Huanmei? You don't want to be too close to me, and you talk nonsense. There is no TV, so where can there be movies?"

"Haha, why am I talking nonsense? Look, I bought movie tickets. For martial arts movies, I'm waiting for you here at Qiaotou. If you don't believe it, you can hear the sound of the movie theater on the street."

"Oh, there was really a loud sound."

"That's it, Sister Huan, let's go. I'll accompany you to sell vegetables. We'll go see it later. I heard that the movie today is really good. It's played by a big star from Hong Kong."

"Hongkong?"

"Yes, let's go, let's go, I'm not a bad person, and watching a movie doesn't mean anything. You just gave me a chance to get to know me."

...

"I didn't expect that you can actually have a movie theater here. It's really a strange thing."

"Boss Chen, don't look down on our Duge Township. It can be found in other places, but why can't it be found here?"

"Haha, I'm not looking down on your Duge Township, I'm just...it's still relatively poor here after all, and not many locals can afford to watch movies."

"What's wrong with being poor? If you were poor, why would you come to us from the city to sell things to make money from us? Sigh, I won't buy them from you. There are people selling shoes in front of me. I'll go buy them in front of you and let you watch.

People are inferior."

"Hey, hey, don't leave, I'll give you an advantage..."

"It's not cheap. I can afford a pair of more expensive shoes. I also want to go to the movies, hum!"

...

Just because of the sudden appearance of this movie theater, all kinds of discussions and entanglements occurred in Duge Township.

The first movie in the cinema was scheduled to start at ten o'clock, but after eight o'clock, people gradually gathered at the entrance of the cinema, including naughty children, young men and women who had changed their clothes, and even some people carrying backpacks.

Old man.

And as time goes by, more and more people gather.

It's just that most of these people gathered here to watch the excitement, and only some young people actually spent money to buy tickets.

One dollar per ticket is a price that many people can afford even in the backward Dug Township. However, the cyclone has not yet blown. The music coming from the speakers can attract them, but it cannot stimulate their enthusiasm.

People pay for tickets. Many people are still discussing what movies are like, what movies are shown today, and what are the differences between watching movies and watching TV.

"Uncle Third, how many tickets have been sold?"

"It's only about forty tickets. Take a look for yourself. There are a lot of people watching the excitement. The gate is almost blocked. There are also many people standing in the courtyard, but there are still only a few people willing to spend money." Sitting at the gate.

Hu Jianqiang, who was selling tickets behind a yellow desk, seemed indifferent.

In order to perform well today, Hu Jianqiang put on a low-quality suit he bought two years ago, and his not-new leather shoes were polished as brightly as possible with shoe polish.

At first, Hu Jianqiang was excited when he saw many people coming from the street to the warehouse. He thought that when those people came, they would pay for a ticket to see something new. Who would have thought that people would stop outside the gate.

, I just craned my neck to look inside to see the excitement.

Occasionally, some young people paid for tickets, but compared to expectations, it was still far from what they expected.

The reason why I chose this day to open is that I hope it will become an instant hit, but the result is that it seems to be neither fish nor fowl.

Hu Jianqiang is not an investor, but now he is taking care of the cinema. If it had failed from the beginning, he would be uncomfortable.

"Uncle Third, it's okay. It's only half past nine, and there's still half an hour. And movies are new to us here. It's normal for everyone to wait and see. If it were you, you probably wouldn't be able to do it right away.

If you want money right away, you have to check the situation first." Hu Mingchen comforted Hu Jianqiang while looking at the curious villagers.

"I hope it's what you said." Hu Jianqiang did not dare to have the confidence of Hu Mingchen.

"Xiaochen, it's about to start and there are only one-fifth of the seats inside. What should I do?" Hu Jianjun, who was collecting tickets inside, came out of the theater and asked in a low voice.

Hu Mingchen and his family were out today. Hu Jianjun collected tickets and Jiang Yucai was responsible for cleaning. As for Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao, of course they were watching movies with their classmates.

Regarding Hu Mingchen's opening of a cinema, whether he was happy or not, Hu Jianjun still hoped that the business would be booming. He once had a similar view to Hu Mingchen, thinking that the opening day would attract locals to spend forever, but it turned out that

That's it, his confidence was suddenly gone.

If on the day of opening, and it’s a busy day, only one-fifth of the seats can be filled for a movie, how can we dare to think about the future business?

Hu Jianjun's mood plummeted from the sky when he thought that his business would be bleak and his family's house would not be repaired.

"No matter how many people are seated, the movie will start as usual. Everything is difficult at the beginning, but I believe it will get better and better." Hu Mingchen turned to comfort Hu Jianjun.

Is Hu Mingchen really full of confidence and determination? In fact, not necessarily.

There has never been such a new thing in Duge Township, and there is no reference object at all. Hu Mingchen is not fully sure of what the business will be like.

Hu Mingchen did this based on his basic judgment and feeling that it could be done and there should be business.

Now the first movie starts only half an hour away, and only forty people have bought tickets. The normal capacity of the Doug Cinema is two hundred people. It is absolutely impossible to say that Hu Mingchen is unshakable and not worried.

The investment was real money, not to mention the debt of more than 10,000 yuan. If this cinema failed, Hu Mingchen would not know how to repay the debt and face the complaints of the whole family.

But now Hu Mingchen can only hold on. If even he, the instigator, is shaken and loses confidence, let alone others.

So no matter how it starts, Hu Mingchen has to stay calm. He must give enough confidence to the people around him. If they collapse before the battle begins, it will be strange that the business can pick up later.

All the pressure is concentrated on Hu Mingchen. No matter whether his small body is upright or not, at this moment, he must show the role of the backbone.

"I'm afraid it will get worse and worse. Tickets cost only one yuan. I can't imagine that if the price becomes two yuan, who would be willing to watch." Hu Jianjun did not gain confidence because of Hu Mingchen's comfort.
